Atara Biotherapeutics reports Q4 EPS ($1.19) vs. ($14.00) last year

Reports Q4 revenue $32.75M vs. $4.25M last year. “We will further narrow our focus on the future financial value of EBVALLO for the benefit of all stakeholders. Atara continues to productively engage with our partner Pierre Fabre Laboratories and the FDA to help the third-party manufacturer adequately address the GMP compliance issues as we continue to work toward an expeditious path to release the clinical hold and resubmit the EBVALLO BLA,” said Cokey Nguyen, President and Chief Executive Officer of Atara. “With the focus on future EBVALLO value paramount, the Company has made the difficult decision to pause development of its allogeneic CAR-T cell programs and to discontinue all CAR-T operations including terminating the clinical trials evaluating ATA3219. The company’s strategic review is ongoing.”
