Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
Oncternal Therapeutics, Inc. (“Oncternal”) estimates that its cash and cash equivalents were $63.7 million and it had 57.5 million shares of common stock outstanding as of December 31, 2022. During the quarter ended December 31, 2022, Oncternal sold 1,947,034 shares of common stock under its at-the-market equity offering program. These amounts are preliminary and are subject to completion of financial closing procedures. As a result, these amounts may differ from the amounts that will be reflected in Oncternal’s financial statements as of and for the quarter ended December 31, 2022.
The information in this Item 2.02 shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
