The complaint alleges that contrary to defendants’ Class Period assurances that the “differential” between handpiece unit sales and procedures had “remained relatively consistent,” PROCEPT’s discount program had caused handpiece orders to materially exceed procedures in every quarter during the Class Period. According to the complaint, these undisclosed sales tactics artificially inflated PROCEPT’s reported U.S. handpiece unit sales and revenues by pulling forward demand at the expense of future periods.

According to the complaint, throughout the Class Period, “defendants represented that demand for optical wavelengths in Cogent’s newly acquired wireline business was exceptionally strong and rapidly growing.” However, according to the complaint and unknown to investors, “the order backlog that defendants routinely publicized during the Class Period was, by and large, illusory – a fact later confirmed when most of the purported backlog never turned into paying customers even after the Company’s network had been fully repurposed.”

Further, according to the complaint, on May 4, 2026 the CEO and Chairman of the Board David Schaeffer conceded “[o]n wavelength installs, we have seen a variety of customers pushing out their acceptance of wavelengths.” Following this the news, the price of Cogent common stock fell $6.79 per share, or 29% to close at $16.37 per share on May 4, 2026.

Jasper Therapeutics Reports Second Quarter 2026 Financial Results and Provides Corporate Update

Acquisition of Kira Pharmaceuticals closed in July creating a combined company with a robust portfolio of clinical stage assets focused on immunologically-driven disorders 

Completed a concurrent PIPE financing raising $132 million in gross proceeds

REDWOOD CITY, Calif., Aug. 14, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Jasper Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: JSPR) (“Jasper”), a clinical stage biotechnology company focused on the design and development of innovative therapies to treat immune-mediated diseases, today reported results for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2026, and provided a corporate update.

“We are excited to unite Jasper Therapeutics and Kira Pharmaceuticals to advance our shared mission of developing a differentiated portfolio of innovative therapies for patients with significant immune-mediated diseases. Supported by our recent $132 million financing led by leading life sciences investors, we believe that we have sufficient capital to fund planned operations through the second half of 2028.  We plan to advance development of our lead asset KP-104, a novel dual inhibitor of the complement cascade, in multiple indications, progress briquilimab towards a potential BLA, and to commence first in human studies for KP-701,” said Jeet Mahal, President and Chief Executive Officer of Jasper. “The combined company now has access to significant resources in the United States and China, which we believe will allow us to rapidly advance our portfolio across multiple diseases of unmet need.”

Corporate Updates for Second Quarter 2026 and Recent Weeks

  • On July 16, 2026, Jasper completed the acquisition of Kira Pharmaceuticals (“Kira”), a former Cayman limited company that was engaged in the design of complement therapies to treat immune-mediated diseases, in an all-stock transaction.
  • Concurrently with the acquisition, Jasper entered into a securities purchase agreement for the sale of non-voting convertible preferred stock (the “Preferred Stock”) in a private placement co-led by Affinity Asset Advisors, LLC and Ikarian Capital LLC with participation from other leading life science investors. The private placement resulted in total gross proceeds of approximately $132 million.
  • The combined company is focused on advancing its consolidated pipeline of potential best-in-class innovative therapies for immunologically-driven disorders, including:
    • KP-104 (Vensobafusp alfa), a Phase 2/3 ready, potentially best-in-disease, bifunctional biologic targeting both the alternative and terminal pathways within the complement cascade  for the treatment of paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) and high unmet need nephrology disorders. KP-104 is currently being evaluated in a Phase 2 basket trial in rare renal indications and interim data from Stage 1 of the trial is expected in the fourth quarter of 2026. Based on previous, positive results in treatment-naïve PNH, the combined company is also planning for an end-of-Phase 2 meeting with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and plans to announce next steps for development in PNH in the first half of 2027;
    • Briquilimab, a late-stage, potentially best-in-class anti-KIT antibody with broad therapeutic utility across multiple transplant and immunologic indications. Based on positive, long-term data generated in SCID, the combined company is progressing its efforts towards a pre-BLA meeting with the FDA and expects to announce next steps in the first quarter of 2027; and
    • KP-701, a novel, dual-acting anti-CD79BxCD32B monoclonal antibody (mAb) for autoantibody-mediated disorders. The combined company expects to file a clinical trial application (CTA) and/or an investigational new drug (IND) for Phase 1 evaluation in the first quarter of 2027.

Second Quarter Fiscal 2026 Financial Results

  • Cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2026, totaled $7.3 million.
  • Research and development expense for the three months ended June 30, 2026, was $5.1 million.
  • General and administrative expense for the three months ended June 30, 2026, was $4.1 million.
