ALLR Allarity Therapeutics Inc

Boston (September 11, 2024) — Allarity Therapeutics, Inc. (“Allarity” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: ALLR), a clinical-stage pharmaceutical company dedicated to developing personalized cancer treatments, today announced that the Company is taking a decisive step toward regaining compliance with Nasdaq’s listing requirements, as outlined by the Nasdaq Hearings Panel during a meeting on August 15, 2024.

At the meeting, the Nasdaq Hearings Panel approved Allarity’s plan to maintain its listing, contingent upon the Company securing shareholder approval for a reverse stock split by September 6, 2024. This approval was granted by Allarity’s shareholders at the Company’s Annual Meeting of Stockholders on September 3, 2024. The Board of Directors has since approved the implementation of a 1-for-30 Reverse Stock Split of its outstanding shares of common stock (the “Reverse Stock Split”), which took effect at 12:01am Eastern Time today, September 11, 2024. The Company’s common stock will begin trading on a split-adjusted basis when the market opens today.

Thomas Jensen, CEO of Allarity Therapeutics, commented, “We are committed to maintaining our Nasdaq listing and are taking decisive steps to meet the exchange’s requirements. By implementing this reverse stock split, we are mitigating the risks of delisting and positioning Allarity to further advance our unique precision medicine approach. Stenoparib has shown promising clinical benefit in patients with advanced ovarian cancer, who have exhausted other treatment options. Our focus remains on progressing the development of stenoparib, while ensuring we comply with Nasdaq’s regulatory standards.”

New CUSIP and Shareholdings AdjustmentsThe new CUSIP number for Allarity’s common stock following the Reverse Stock Split will be 016744500. As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, the total number of shares of Allarity’s issued and outstanding common stock will be reduced to approximately one-thirtieth of the pre-split amount. Stockholders holding fractional shares post-split will have their shares rounded up to the nearest whole number. Proportional adjustments will also be made to outstanding equity awards and authorized shares under Allarity’s 2021 equity incentive plan.Allarity has appointed Computershare Limited as the exchange agent to facilitate the Reverse Stock Split process. Registered stockholders with shares held in book-entry form are not required to take any action to receive their post-split shares. Stockholders holding shares through brokerage accounts will see their holdings automatically adjusted to reflect the Reverse Stock Split. For stockholders with physical certificates, Computershare will provide instructions on how to exchange their certificates for post-split shares.

About StenoparibStenoparib is an orally available, small-molecule dual-targeted inhibitor of PARP1/2 and Tankyrase 1 and 2. At present, tankyrases are attracting significant attention as emerging therapeutic targets for cancer, principally due to their role in regulating the Wnt signaling pathway. Aberrant Wnt/β-catenin signaling has been implicated in the development and progression of numerous cancers. By inhibiting PARP and blocking Wnt pathway activation, stenoparib’s unique therapeutic action shows potential as a promising therapeutic. Allarity has exclusive global rights for the development and commercialization of stenoparib, which was originally developed by Eisai Co. Ltd. and was formerly known under the names E7449 and 2X-121.
