| Item 2.02. | Results of Operations and Financial Condition. |
On August 4, 2014 Aldeyra Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company” or “Aldeyra”) issued a press release and is holding a conference call regarding its results of operations and financial condition for the quarter ended June 30, 2014. The press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein.
Various statements to be made during the conference call are “forward-looking statements” under the securities laws, including, but not limited to, statements regarding Aldeyra’s plans for its product candidates. In some cases, you can identify forward looking statements by terms such as, but not limited to, “may,” “might,” “will,” “objective,” “intend,” “should,” “could,” “can,” “would,” “expect,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “project,” “target,” “design,” “estimate,” “predict,” “potential,” “plan” or the negative of these terms, and similar expressions intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such forward- looking statements are based upon current expectations that involve risks, changes in circumstances, assumptions and uncertainties.
Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those reflected in Aldeyra’s forward-looking statements include, among others, the timing and success of preclinical studies and clinical trials conducted by Aldeyra and its development partners; the ability to obtain and maintain regulatory approval of Aldeyra’s product candidates, and the labeling for any approved products; the scope, progress, expansion, and costs of developing and commercializing Aldeyra’s product candidates; the size and growth of the potential markets for Aldeyra’s product candidates and the ability to serve those markets; Aldeyra’s expectations regarding Aldeyra’s expenses and revenue, the sufficiency of Aldeyra’s cash resources and needs for additional financing; Aldeyra’s ability to attract or retain key personnel; and other factors that are described in the “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” sections of Aldeyra’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2014 which is on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. (http://www.sec.gov.) Additional information will also be set forth in those sections of Aldeyra’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2014, which will be filed with the SEC in the third quarter of 2014.
In addition to the risks described above and in Aldeyra’s other filings with the SEC, other unknown or unpredictable factors also could affect Aldeyra’s results. No forward-looking statements can be guaranteed and actual results may differ materially from such statements. The information conveyed on the conference call is provided only as of the date of the call, and Aldeyra undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements presented on the call on account of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as required by law.
The information in Item 2.02 of this Current Report on Form 8-K and the Exhibit attached hereto shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
