Explanatory Note

 

In its initial Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 7, 2019 (the “Original Form 8-K”), Arch Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) filed a copy of an October 7, 2019 press release highlighting some of the matters that would be covered by Terrence W. Norchi, MD, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, during his October 7, 2019, presentation at the 2nd Annual LD Micro Big Apple Conference in New York City (the “Original Press Release”) as Exhibit 99.1 to the Original Form 8-K. Among other things, the Original Press Release inadvertently referenced a prior Company press release dated October 2, 2019 instead of the correct date, which was August 5, 2019. The Company has issued an updated press release to correct the date reference (the “Updated Press Release”), and consequently this Current Report on Form 8-K/A (Amendment No. 1)(the “Amended Form 8-K”) is being filed solely to amend the Original Form 8-K to provide the Updated Press Release as Exhibit 99.1 to the Amended Form 8-K. Except for the changes to Exhibit 99.1, this Amended Form 8-K does not otherwise amend or update any information or exhibits originally set forth in or filed with the Original Form 8-K
