This Post-Effective Amendment relates to the following Registration Statement on Form S-3 (the “Registration Statement”), previously filed by Metacrine, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”):

 

   

Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-260023), originally filed with the SEC on October 4, 2021, registering such indeterminate number of shares of common stock and preferred stock, such indeterminate principal amount of debt securities and such indeterminate number of warrants to purchase common stock, preferred stock and/or debt securities, which together shall have an aggregate initial offering price not to exceed $150,000,000.

On January 24, 2023, the Company’s board of directors approved a Plan of Dissolution (the “Plan of Dissolution”) which, if approved by the Company’s stockholders at a special meeting to be held on March 23, 2023, will authorize the Company to liquidate and dissolve the Company in accordance with the Plan of Dissolution.

In connection with the Plan of Dissolution, the Company is terminating any and all offerings of the Company’s securities pursuant to its existing registration statements under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, including the Registration Statement. In accordance with undertakings made by the Company in the Registration Statement to remove from registration, by means of a post-effective amendment, any securities that had been registered for issuance that remain unsold at the termination of the offering, the Company hereby removes from registration all such securities of the Company registered pursuant to the Registration Statement that remain unsold as of the date hereof. The Registration Statement is hereby amended, as appropriate, to reflect the deregistration of such securities.
