Investor Verification Checklist
- Verify the correct registrant name is Cortexyme, Inc. (Ticker: CRTX), as the input metadata incorrectly referenced Quince Therapeutics.
- Confirm the appointment of BDO USA, LLP as the auditor for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2020.
- Note the high level of broker non-votes (4,411,179) on the director election, which may indicate significant institutional holdings.
- Review the Company's 10-K or 10-Q filings for actual financial performance data, as this 8-K does not contain such information.
