Business

 

Corbus Pharmaceuticals Holdings, Inc. (“the Company” or “Corbus”) is a clinical-stage pharmaceutical company focused on the development and commercialization of novel therapeutics that target the endocannabinoid or immune system. The Company intends to pursue indications for our novel therapeutics that are autoimmune, fibrotic, or metabolic diseases, or cancer. The Company is developing a diverse pipeline of drug candidates and plan to expand our pipeline through internal efforts and business development.  Since its inception, the Company has devoted substantially all of its efforts to business planning, research and development, recruiting management and technical staff, acquiring operating assets and raising capital. The Company’s business is subject to significant risks and uncertainties and the Company will be dependent on raising substantial additional capital before it becomes profitable and it may never achieve profitability.

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management of the Company, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements reflect all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2021 and the results of its operations and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020. The December 31, 2020 condensed consolidated balance sheet was derived from audited financial statements. The Company prepared the condensed consolidated financial statements following the requirements of the SEC for interim reporting. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, filed on March 15, 2021. The results of operations for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full fiscal year.

 

In response to the spread of COVID-19, the Company has taken temporary precautionary measures intended to help minimize the risk of the virus to its employees and community, including temporarily requiring employees to work remotely, implementing remote monitoring procedures for clinical data and suspending all non-essential travel worldwide for its employees.

 

The Company is continuing to monitor the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on its business and operations.
