EXPLANATORY NOTE
Renalytix plc (the “
Company
”) is filing this Amendment No. 1 (the “
Amendment
”) on Form
20-F/A
to amend its Annual Report on Form
20-F
for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 21, 2021 (the “
Original
20-F
”), for the purpose of filing revised versions of Exhibits 12.1 and 12.2 filed with the Original
20-F.
The Company is filing revised exhibits solely in order to include in the certifications set forth in the Exhibits the reference to internal control over financial reporting in the introductory language to paragraph 4, which language was inadvertently omitted from the certifications when originally filed. The Amendment does not reflect events occurring after the date of the filing of the Original
20-F
or modify or update any of the other disclosures contained therein in any way. Accordingly, the Amendment should be read in conjunction with the Original
20-F.
The Amendment consists solely of the preceding cover page, this explanatory note, the signature page and paragraphs 1, 2, 4 and 5 of each of the revised certifications filed as exhibits to the Amendment. Because no financial statements have been included in this Amendment, paragraph 3 of each of the certifications set forth in the Exhibits has been omitted.
