Forward-looking statements relate to expectations concerning matters that are not historical facts. Words such as &#8220;projects,&#8221; &#8220;believes,&#8221; &#8220;anticipates,&#8221; &#8220;plans,&#8221; &#8220;expects,&#8221; &#8220;intends,&#8221; &#8220;may,&#8221; &#8220;will,&#8221; &#8220;could,&#8221; &#8220;should,&#8221; &#8220;would,&#8221; and similar words and expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those discussed in such forward-looking statements. Such risks and uncertainties include, without limitation, the outcome of the Chapter 11 proceedings, the Company&#8217;s contractual and financial obligations to key suppliers and vendors; the Company&#8217;s financial projections and cost estimates; the Company&#8217;s ability to raise additional funds; and risks associated with the Company&#8217;s business prospects, financial results and business operations. These and other factors that may affect the Company&#8217;s future business prospects, results and operations are identified and described in more detail in the Company&#8217;s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the &#8220;SEC&#8221;), including the Company&#8217;s most recent Annual Report filed on Form 10-K and the subsequently filed Quarterly Report(s) on Form 10-Q. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this Form 8-K. Except as required by applicable law, the Company does not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to actual results, later events or circumstances or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.</span></div><div style="margin-bottom:10pt;margin-top:10pt;text-align:justify"><table

Item 7.01
Regulation FD Disclosure.
As previously reported, on January 11, 2023, Tricida, Inc. (the "Company") filed a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the "Court"), thereby commencing a Chapter 11 case for the Company (Case No. 23-10024).
On February 21, 2023, the Company filed its monthly operating report (the "Monthly Operating Report"), with the Court for the reporting month ended January 31, 2023, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
Cautionary Note Regarding the Monthly Operating Reports
The Company cautions investors and potential investors not to place undue reliance upon the information contained in the Monthly Operating Report, which was not prepared for the purpose of providing the basis for an investment decision relating to any of the Company's securities. The Monthly Operating Report is limited in scope and has been prepared solely for the purpose of complying with requirements of the Court. The Monthly Operating Report is not reviewed by independent accountants, is in a format prescribed by applicable bankruptcy laws, and is subject to future adjustment. The financial information in the Monthly Operating Report is not prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") and, therefore, may exclude items required by GAAP, such as certain reclassifications, eliminations, accruals, valuations and disclosures. The Monthly Operating Report also relates to periods that are different from the historical periods required in the Company's reports filed pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act.
Limitation on Incorporation by Reference
In accordance with General Instruction B.2 of Form 8-K, the information in this Item 7.01 is being furnished for informational purposes only and shall not be deemed "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Exchange Act, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall such information be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as otherwise expressly stated in such filing. The filing of this current report (including Exhibit 99.1 attached hereto) will not be deemed an admission as to the materiality of any information required to be disclosed solely by Regulation FD.
Cautionary Statements Regarding Trading in the Company's Securities
The Company's securityholders are cautioned that trading in the Company's securities during the pendency of the Chapter 11 case is highly speculative and poses substantial risks. Trading prices for the Company's securities may bear little or no relationship to the actual recovery, if any, by holders thereof in the Company's Chapter 11 case. Accordingly, the Company urges extreme caution with respect to existing and future investments in its securities.
Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Current Report on Form 8-K and Exhibit 99.1 include forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Forward-looking statements relate to expectations concerning matters that are not historical facts. Words such as "projects," "believes," "anticipates," "plans," "expects," "intends," "may," "will," "could," "should," "would," and similar words and expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those discussed in such forward-looking statements. Such risks and uncertainties include, without limitation, the outcome of the Chapter 11 proceedings, the Company's contractual and financial obligations to key suppliers and vendors; the Company's financial projections and cost estimates; the Company's ability to raise additional funds; and risks associated with the Company's business prospects, financial results and business operations. These and other factors that may affect the Company's future business prospects, results and operations are identified and described in more detail in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), including the Company's most recent Annual Report filed on Form 10-K and the subsequently filed Quarterly Report(s) on Form 10-Q. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this Form 8-K. Except as required by applicable law, the Company does not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to actual results, later events or circumstances or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
