Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

 

This filing contains “forward looking statements” made pursuant to the safe harbor provision of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, as well as assumptions, that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical results and those presently anticipated or projected. Forward-looking statements in this filing include the timing of patient treatment and the acceptance by the FDA of an Investigational New Drug application. These forward-looking statements and their implications are based on the current expectations of the management of the BioCardia only, and are subject to a number of factors and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements. The following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements: the registrant may encounter delays or obstacles in completing the pre-specified Data Safety Monitoring Board Review for BCDA-01 and in treating the first patient in its BCDA-02 trial; the INDs for BCDA-03 and BCDA-04 may not be accepted by the FDA; and publication of clinical safety papers may be delayed or not occur, which could cause the actual results or performance of BioCardia to differ materially from that contemplated in such forward-looking statements. BioCardia cautions investors not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. BioCardia disclaims any obligation to update these forward-looking statements. For a more detailed description of the risks and uncertainties affecting BioCardia, reference is made to BioCardia’s reports filed from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
