On September 18, 2018, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a workforce reduction involving 5 employees (or 33% of the workforce at that time) to lower costs and conserve cash resources in light of the previously announced request by the FDA for additional pre-clinical data required in order to schedule an End of Phase 2 (EOP2) meeting for gemcabene in the Company’s target indications. Related expenses recognized during the year ended December 31, 2018 totaled approximately $1.6 million, largely in the third quarter, of which approximately $0.6 million was recorded as general and administrative expense and $1.0 million was recorded as research and development expense.
