Item 8.01    Other Events.
 
On January 23, 2018, Obalon Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing the termination of its previously announced offering of common stock and the underwriting agreement relating to the offering. The termination was due to a purported whistleblower complaint submitted to KPMG LLP, the Company’s independent auditors, related to allegedly improper revenue recognition during the Company’s fourth fiscal quarter of 2017.

In connection with the receipt of the complaint, the Company also announced that the audit committee of the Company’s board of directors will oversee an internal investigation of these allegations. The Company is currently unable to predict the timing or outcome of the investigation.

A copy of the press release is attached to this report as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
