Osiris Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) is unable to file, without unreasonable effort or expense, its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2014 (the “Annual Report’). The Company shifted its focus to its Biosurgery business in fiscal 2014, and product revenue increased 146% in fiscal 2014 as compared to 2013. In addition, the Company migrated to a new accounting system during fiscal 2014. As a result of these and other factors, the Company experienced unanticipated delays in compiling certain necessary information to complete its audit, and to complete and file the Annual Report. As of the scheduled filing date for the Annual Report, the Company continued in its efforts to respond to information requests and inquiries from its auditors as necessary to complete the audit. The Company currently expects to file the Annual Report within the extension period of fifteen calendar days provided under Rule 12b-25 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

| | | | | |
| If so, attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable estimate of the results cannot be made. |
On March 5, 2015, the Company announced unaudited results for its fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2014, and furnished those unaudited results in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the United States Securites and Exchange Commission on March 5, 2014. As reported therein, product revenue was $59.9 million for fiscal 2014 as compared to $24.3 million for fiscal 2013; gross profit from operations was $46.7 milllion in fiscal 2014 as compared to $17.7 in fiscal 2013; and full-year net loss in fiscal 2014 was $1.8 million, or $(0.05) per share on a fully diluted basis, compared to a net income of $41.6 million, or $1.22 per share on a fully diluted basis for fiscal 2013. The fiscal 2013 earnings included a gain on the sale of discontinued operations of $49.4 million, on account of the sale in 2013 of the Company’s Therapeutics business. As noted above, all such results for fiscal 2014 are unaudited, and as of the scheduled filing date for the Annual Report, the Company continued in its efforts to respond to information requests and inquiries from its auditors as necessary to complete the audit.
The foregoing statements about the anticipated timing of the filing of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2014 are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These forward-looking statements are based upon information presently available to the Company and assumptions that it believes to be reasonable. Investors are cautioned that all such statements involve risks and uncertainties, including the risks that additional resources and time may be needed to complete and file the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2014.
