Exicure's securities class action and its shareholder derivative suits are over, according to a quarterly report filed August 14, 2026. The class action settled for $5.625 million, funded by insurers, and the derivative suits were dismissed in June 2026 after court approval.
Exicure says it needs more time to finish its quarterly report and expects a net loss of approximately $1,827,911 for the quarter. Cash fell to about $2,504,054 by March 31, 2026, and its 10-K already carried a going-concern warning.
Exicure told the SEC on May 15, 2025 that it cannot file its quarterly report for the period ended March 31, 2025 on time, because it has not finished the accounting for its acquisition of GPCR Therapeutics USA, Inc. The company expects to file within the five-day extension that Rule 12b-25 allows, and it says the acquisition will make the quarter's results hard to compare with last year.
The company said it needs more time on the purchase price allocation for GPCR Therapeutics USA, Inc. It expects results to change significantly from the March 31, 2024 quarter.
The bonds of KC Creation Co., Ltd. mature on April 30, 2028 and yield 2.9% a year. KC Creation expects to use the money to buy stocks of other corporations.
What Exicure does
Exicure, Inc. was historically an early-stage biotechnology company developing nucleic acid therapies built on its spherical nucleic acid technology. After a September 2022 restructuring it suspended preclinical activities, and in September 2024 it sold its historical biotechnology intellectual property and other assets to Flashpoint Therapeutics. The company says it no longer owns any intellectual property and that its current focus is exploring transactions with potential partners that see opportunity in joining an existing, publicly-traded organization, which may be focused in Asia. In January 2025 it acquired GPCR Therapeutics USA from GPCR Therapeutics Inc under a License and Collaboration Agreement. GPCR USA completed a Phase 2 trial in January 2026 in blood cancer patients, and a current trial combines GPC-100, a small molecule antagonist of a chemokine receptor, with propranolol to mobilize stem cells in multiple myeloma patients. The company reports no current source of revenue. Its largest stockholder, Exicure HiTron Inc., beneficially owned 25% of outstanding shares as of March 17, 2026.
