Pliant Therapeutics reports Q2 EPS (70c), consensus (71c)

of June 30, the Company had cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of $555.2M, which the Company expects to be sufficient to fund operations into the second half of 2026. “We are extremely pleased with the continued progress in the second quarter across the portfolio, including positive long-term data from our INTEGRIS-IPF Phase 2a trial of bexotegrast in IPF, as well as the entry of our third drug candidate, PLN-101095, into Phase 1 testing for treatment of solid tumors. Our team’s strong execution over the quarter positions us well for multiple expected milestones throughout the remainder of the year, including the recent initiation of BEACON-IPF, our Phase 2b trial in IPF, and an upcoming interim Phase 2a data readout from INTEGRIS-PSC which is expected in the third quarter,” said Bernard Coulie, M.D., Ph.D., President and Chief Executive Officer of Pliant Therapeutics.As
