The investor rights attorneys at Goldman Scarlato & Penny, PC law firm (“GSP”) are evaluating potential claims for compensation on behalf of investors who purchased Athira Phrama (Nasdaq: ATHA) shares either in its initial public offering (“IPO”) or its private placements and suffered losses. The GSP attorneys plan to primarily seek compensation for Athira investors individually, rather than in a class action. Each investor’s situation must be individually evaluated before representation is offered. Not all investors may qualify for individual representation.

Athira Pharma is a biopharmaceutical company founded in 2011, with a declared focus on drugs targeting neurological diseases. In September 2020, Athira Pharma published a Prospectus offering 12,000,000 shares approved for listing on Nasdaq at $17 per share.

In June 2021, Athira Pharma announced placing its CEO Leen Kawas on temporary leave pending investigation into Dr. Kawas’s doctoral research conducted while at Washington State University. Reports indicate the investigation concerns alleged use of manipulated images in several papers authored by Athira’s former CEO. The announcement caused a price decline, closing at $11.15 on June 18, 2021. As of June 6, 2021 the price per share is $10.84.
