Lantern Pharma says article on CEO leaving ‘false and misleading’

Lantern Pharma (LTRN) said, “The company was made aware of an online third-party article unaffiliated with the company stating that the CEO of Lantern was stepping down and had resigned. This was a false and misleading article that seemed to be focused on shorting the Company’s stock price amongst traders. Panna Sharma continues to serve as President and Chief Executive Officer with the full confidence of the Board of Directors, and together with the management team, continues to actively lead the company’s day-to-day operations, clinical development strategy, partnership discussions, and capital planning efforts. Lantern Pharma encourages its investors and stakeholders to rely on the company’s SEC filings, press releases, and official communications through its established disclosure channels for genuine information about the company and its leadership.”
