Catalyst Biosciences, Inc. and its subsidiary (the “Company” or “Catalyst”) is a biopharmaceutical company with expertise in protease engineering and several protease assets that may address unmet medical needs in disorders of the coagulation and complement systems. The Company is focused on the monetization of its assets and is exploring several strategic alternatives. The Company is located in South San Francisco, California and operates in one segment. The Company had a net loss of $14.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and an accumulated deficit of $417.2 million as of March 31, 2022. As of March 31, 2022, the Company had $34.8 million of cash and cash equivalents. Its primary uses of cash are to fund operating and business development expenses and general and administrative expenditures. The Company believes that its existing cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2022 will be sufficient to fund its cash requirements for at least the next 12 months from the date of the filing of this report. The Company might raise funds through strategic collaborations, public or private financings or other arrangements. Such funding, if needed, may not be available on favorable terms, or at all. The Company will continue to evaluate the impact of the novel coronavirus disease (“COVID-19”) pandemic on its business, operations, and cash requirements.
