Item 2.05 |
Costs Associated With Exit or Disposal Activities. |
On May 29, 2024, the board of directors
(the “Board”) of Ocular Therapeutix, Inc. (the “Company”) approved a strategic reduction in force to
eliminate 37 full-time employees of the Company, primarily in research and development and technical operations and representing
approximately 13% of the Company’s workforce, as part of an initiative to prioritize Company resources on the clinical
development of AXPAXLI™ (axitinib intravitreal implant, also known as OTX-TKI) for the treatment of wet age-related
macular degeneration.
The Company currently expects to substantially
complete the reduction in force and to record the related restructuring charges in the second quarter of 2024. The Company anticipates
incurring total restructuring costs of approximately $1.0 to $2.0 million, which includes garden leave, severance benefits and related
costs and which are expected to result in cash expenditures during the second and third quarters of 2024. The Company is continuing to
review its business plan and the potential impact of the reduction in force and is unable to estimate any additional restructuring costs
or charges at this time. If the Company subsequently determines that it will incur additional significant costs and restructuring charges,
it will amend this Current Report on Form 8-K to disclose such information.
Cautionary Note on Forward-Looking Statements
Any statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K
about future expectations, plans, and prospects for the Company, including the impact of and restructuring costs and potential future
savings associated with the Company’s reduction in force; the development and regulatory status of the Company’s product candidates;
the Company’s cash runway and the sufficiency of the Company’s cash resources; and other statements containing the words “anticipate”,
“believe”, “estimate”, “expect”, “intend”, “goal”, “may”, “might”,
“plan”, “predict”, “project”, “target”, “potential”, “will”, “would”,
“could”, “should”, “continue”, and similar expressions, constitute forward-looking statements within
the meaning of The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Actual results may differ materially from those indicated by such
forward-looking statements as a result of various important factors. Such forward-looking statements involve substantial risks and uncertainties
that could cause the Company’s preclinical and clinical development programs, future results, performance or achievements to differ
significantly from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Such risks and uncertainties include, among others, uncertainties
as to the impact of the reduction in force, including whether it will result in the anticipated savings; the timing and costs involved
in commercializing DEXTENZA or any product or product candidate that receives regulatory approval; the ability to retain regulatory approval
of DEXTENZA or any product or product candidate that receives regulatory approval; the initiation, design, timing, conduct and outcomes
of the Company’s clinical trials; uncertainties inherent in estimating the Company’s cash runway, future expenses and other
financial results, including its ability to fund future operations; the Company’s existing indebtedness and the ability of the Company’s
creditors to accelerate the maturity of such indebtedness upon the occurrence of certain events of default; the Company’s ability
to enter into strategic alliances or generate additional funding on a timely basis, on favorable terms, or at all; and other factors discussed
in the “Risk Factors” section contained in the Company’s quarterly and annual reports on file with the Securities and
Exchange Commission. In addition, the forward-looking statements included in this Current Report on Form 8-K represent the Company’s
views as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K. The Company anticipates that subsequent events and developments may cause
the Company’s views to change. However, while the Company may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in
the future, the Company specifically disclaims any obligation to do so, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise,
except as required by law. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing the Company’s views as of
any date subsequent to the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K.
