ARCA biopharma, Inc. (the “Company” or “ARCA”) intends to conduct meetings with potential investors on or after April 23, 2013 through June 1, 2013. ARCA expects to use the presentation materials furnished as Exhibit 99.1 hereto, in whole or in part and possibly with immaterial modifications, in connection with such meetings. The fact that these presentation materials are being furnished should not be deemed an admission as to the materiality of any information contained in the materials. The information contained in the presentation materials is summary information that is intended to be considered in the context of the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission and other public announcements that it may make, by press release or otherwise, from time to time.
The text of the presentation materials attached to this report may omit various graphic images included in the actual presentation materials. The Company expects to make copies of the presentation materials, including such graphic images, available for viewing at the “Investor Relations” section of its website located at www.arcabiopharma.com, although the Company reserves the right to discontinue that availability at any time.
The attached presentation materials contain “forward-looking statements” for purposes of the safe harbor provided by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the Company’s anticipated timing for initiation or completion of its clinical trials for any of its product candidates; the potential for Gencaro to be an effective potential treatment for atrial fibrillation and the Company’s ability to fund future operations. Such statements are based on management’s current expectations and involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results and performance could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including, without limitation, the risks and uncertainties associated with: the Company’s financial resources and whether they will be sufficient to meet the Company’s business objectives and operational requirements; the Company’s ability to complete a strategic transaction to support the continued development Gencaro, and/or obtain additional financing; the Company’s anticipated timing for initiation or completion of its clinical trials for any of its product candidates; the Company’s ability to identify, develop and achieve commercial success for products and technologies; drug discovery and the regulatory approval process; estimated timelines for regulatory filings and the implications of interim or final results of the Company’s clinical trials; the extent to which the Company’s issued and pending patents may protect its products and technology; the potential of the Company’s clinical development program to lead to the approval of the Company’s New Drug Application for Gencaro; and, the impact of competitive products and technological changes. These and other factors are identified and described in more detail in ARCA’s filings with the SEC, including without limitation the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 (Registration No. 333-187508), and subsequent filings. The Company disclaims any intent or obligation to update these forward-looking statements.
