Investor Verification Checklist
- Verify the specific financial figures (revenue, net loss, cash position) by reviewing the attached Exhibit 99.1 press release, as they are absent from the 8-K body text.
- Confirm the company's current cash runway and burn rate, as these are critical for a clinical-stage pharmaceutical company but are not detailed in this summary.
- Review the conference call transcript or recording from March 28, 2018, for management's commentary on the 2017 results and future outlook.
- Check for any subsequent filings that may update the financial status or operational milestones mentioned in the 2017 results.
