As we actively explore the possibility for strategic expansion into other areas where we might see near-term milestones and results, we also urge all of our shareholders to exercise their right to vote at our special stockholder’s meeting on September 7, 2021. We urge a vote in favor of the proposal to increase authorized shares, which will provide the Company with the flexibility to issue shares as part of these potential acquisitions, collaborations and partnerships, a common strategy successful biotech companies seeking to grow shareholder value employ in order to create a more attractive opportunity for all. We look forward to continuing to update our stockholders on these opportunities as they develop,” concluded Dr. Quay. Quarter Ended June 30, 2021, Financial Results For the quarter ended June 30, 2021, Atossa has no source of sustainable revenue and no associated cost of revenue. As of June 30, 2021, the Company had cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of approximately $142.5 million. Operating ExpensesTotal operating expenses were approximately $7,004,000 and $10,534,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, consisting of research and development ("R&D") expenses of approximately $3,799,000 and $5,177,000 respectively, and general and administrative ("G&A") expenses of approximately $3,205,000 and $5,357,000, respectively. Total operating expenses were approximately $3,936,000 and $6,873,000, respectively for the three and six month ended June 30, 2020, and consisted of R&D expenses of approximately $1,653,000 and $2,592,000, respectively, and G&A expenses of approximately $2,283,000 and $4,281,000 respectively. Total operating expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to the same period in 2020 increased approximately $3,068,000 and $3,661,000 or 78% and 53%, respectively. Research and Development ExpensesR&D expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2021, were approximately $3,799,000, an increase of approximately $2,146,000 or 130% from total R&D expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2020, of approximately $1,653,000. R&D expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2021, were approximately $5,177,000, an increase of approximately $2,585,000 or 100% from total R&D expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2020, of approximately $2,592,000. The increase in R&D expense is attributed primarily to an increase in clinical trial expense of approximately $1,309,000 and an increase in compensation of approximately $211,000 due to the addition of two employees, as compared to the same period in 2020. Also included in R&D expenses is an increase of $1,000,000 attributable to a one-time fee we paid in June 2021 to a U.S. leading research institution for the exclusive right to negotiate for the acquisition of the world-wide rights to two oncology R&D programs. We expect our R&D expenses to continue to increase into 2021 as we seek to commence a clinical study of AT-H201, complete studies of AT-301, launch a Phase 2 clinical trial of Endoxifen in women with high breast density, and continue the development of other indications and therapeutics. General and Administrative ExpensesG&A expenses were $3,205,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2021, an increase of approximately $922,000, or 40% from the total G&A expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2020, of approximately $2,283,000. G&A expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2021, were approximately $5,357,000, an increase of approximately $1,076,000 or 25% from total R&D expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2020, of approximately $4,281,000. The increase in G&A expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, is attributed to an increase in insurance costs of approximately $387,000 due to the addition of the COVID-19 clinical trials, professional fees of approximately $703,000 due primarily to increased proxy costs and increased compensation of approximately $170,000, offset by a reduction in legal fees of approximately $301,000 compared to the same period in 2020. G&A expenses consist primarily of personnel and related benefit costs, facilities, professional services, insurance, and public company related expenses.

Atossa Therapeutics Receives Approval from Swedish Regulators to Initiate Phase 2 Clinical Study of Oral Endoxifen to Reduce Mammographic Breast Density

SEATTLE, June 11, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Atossa Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: ATOS), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company seeking to discover and develop innovative medicines in oncology and infectious disease with a current focus on breast cancer and COVID-19, announces that it has received approval from the Swedish Medical Product Agency (MPA) to initiate a Phase 2 clinical study of its oral Endoxifen for the reduction of mammographic breast density (MBD). MBD is an emerging public health issue affecting more than 10 million women in the United States and many more worldwide. Studies conducted by others have shown that MBD reduces the ability of mammograms to detect cancer (sensitivity) and increases the risk of developing breast cancer. Additional studies show a correlation between reducing MBD and a reduction in the incidence of breast cancer. “This is a critical milestone in the development of our oral Endoxifen,” commented Steven Quay, M.D., Ph.D., Atossa’s Chairman and CEO. “We now plan to commence the study as soon as restrictions for COVID-19 in Stockholm allow and we are encouraged that daily and weekly average COVID-19 cases have been steadily declining in Sweden over the past six weeks. If this trend continues, we expect to initiate the study in the next quarter. We have also received useful input from the MPA about the development path for Endoxifen. Based in part on that input we will consider conducting future studies to measure the treatment effect of Endoxifen not only on MBD reduction but also on the reduction of the incidence of breast cancer. In addition to clinical data, regulators will require that we also develop preclinical information including toxicology studies and information about manufacturing oral Endoxifen prior to regulatory approval. We have now established two manufacturing sources of Endoxifen for clinical and potential future commercial use and we have initiated a significant portion of the preclinical studies needed for a New Drug Application.” The primary objective of the MBD study is to determine the dose-response relationship of daily oral Endoxifen on mammographic breast density reduction, with secondary endpoints assessing safety and tolerability. The Phase 2 study will be randomized, double-blinded and placebo-controlled. It will be conducted in Stockholm and will include approximately 240 pre-menopausal women with measurable MBD who will receive daily doses of oral Endoxifen or placebo for six months. South General Hospital in Stockholm will be conducting the study. The study is being led by principal investigator Per Hall, M.D., Ph.D., Head of the Department of Medical Epidemiology and Biostatistics at Karolinska Institutet. The study is also subject to approval by the institutional ethics committees and enrollment will not begin unless and until all approvals are obtained and COVID restrictions are lifted in Sweden.

SEATTLE, May 14, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Atossa Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: ATOS), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company seeking to discover and develop innovative medicines in oncology and infectious disease with a current focus on breast cancer and COVID-19, today announces financial results for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2021, and provides an update on recent company developments. Key developments from Q1 2021 and to date include: Atossa’s 2021 Annual Stockholder Meeting is scheduled for today, May 14, 2021 at 1 p.m. Pacific Time. As part of the meeting, Atossa management has decided to withdraw from consideration the proposal to increase authorized shares of common stock by 325 million. “During the first quarter of 2021 we continued our two key development programs, namely our Phase 2 study of oral Endoxifen for the ‘window of opportunity’ between diagnosis of breast cancer and surgery and our Phase 1 study of AT-301 nasal spray for at-home use for patients recently diagnosed with COVID-19,” said Dr. Steven Quay, Atossa’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “In addition, we continued our ongoing expanded access program with Endoxifen in which the drug continues to be well tolerated and breast cancer recurrence has not been seen clinically. We also received an important authorization from the FDA for an additional expanded access treatment program in an ovarian cancer patient. Combined with very encouraging results in our COVID-19 program with AT-301 nasal spray, we continued to make great progress over the quarter.” “In the meantime, we leveraged favorable conditions in the capital markets to strengthen our balance sheet over the last few months placing Atossa in a good position to execute on these and potential additional business opportunities during the remainder of 2021. As a result, we are diligently moving our existing programs forward, while actively exploring the possibility for strategic expansion into other areas where we might see near-term milestones and results. We look forward to continuing to update our stockholders on these opportunities as they develop,” concluded Dr. Quay. Quarter Ended March 31, 2021 Financial Results For the quarter ended March 31, 2021, Atossa has no source of sustainable revenue and no associated cost of revenue. As of March 31, 2021, the Company had cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of approximately $137.7 million.

Operating expenses for 2021 consisted of research and development ("R&D") expenses of $1,379,000 and general and administrative ("G&A") expenses of $2,152,000. Operating expenses for 2020 consisted of R&D expenses of $939,000, and G&A expenses of $1,998,000. Research and Development ExpensesR&D expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2021, were $1,379,000, an increase of $440,000 or 47% from total R&D expenses for the same period in 2020 of $939,000. The increase in R&D expense is attributed primarily an increase in clinical trial expense of approximately $319,000 and an increase in salaries of approximately $118,000 due to the addition of employees, as compared to the same period in 2020. We expect our R&D expenses to continue to increase into 2021 as we seek to commence a study of AT-H201, complete studies of AT-301, launch a Phase 2 clinical trial of Endoxifen in women with high breast density, and continue the development of other indications and therapeutics.

G&A expenses consist primarily of personnel and related benefit costs, facilities, professional services, insurance, and public company related expenses.
