NOTE 1 – NATURE OF THE ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS
Pasithea Therapeutics Corp. (“Pasithea” or the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Delaware on May 12, 2020 and completed an initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering”) on September 17, 2021. The Company is a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on the discovery, research and development of innovative treatments for RASopathies, MAPK pathway-driven tumors, and other diseases, including central nervous system (CNS) disorders.
The Company’s primary operations (the “Therapeutics” segment) are focused on developing the Company’s lead product candidate, PAS-004, a next-generation macrocyclic mitogen-activated protein kinase, or MEK inhibitor that the Company believes may address the limitations and liabilities associated with existing drugs targeting a similar mechanism of action. In December 2023, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) cleared the Company’s Investigational New Drug application (the “IND”) for PAS-004 and the Company received a study may proceed letter from the FDA for its Phase 1 multicenter, open-label, dose escalation trial of PAS-004 in patients with MAPK pathway-driven advanced tumors with a documented RAS, NF1 or RAF mutation or patients who have failed BRAF/MEK inhibition (the “FIH Phase 1 Advanced Cancer Study”). The Company is currently conducting the FIH Phase 1 Advanced Cancer Study at four clinical sites in the United States and three additional sites in Eastern Europe. The Company has completed the initial eight cohorts through 45 mg capsule and has not reached the maximum tolerated dose. The Company plans to file a protocol amendment to continue dose escalation in the FIH Phase 1 Advanced Cancer Study using its tablet formulation of PAS-004 in an effort to continue exploring the safety, PK, and early signals of efficacy at higher dose levels of PAS-004. Simultaneously, a pilot food effect assessment is planned in a subset of patients who agree to participate in this optional component of the study. As such, the Company expects to complete the trial in 2028.
In May 2025, the Company initiated its Phase 1/1b multicenter, open-label, dose escalation trial of PAS-004 in adult patients with neurofibromatosis type 1 (“NF1”) with symptomatic and inoperable, incompletely resected, or recurrent plexiform neurofibromas (“PN”). The Company is currently conducting the trial at a total of five sites in the United States, Australia, and South Korea.
The initial indication the Company plans to seek FDA marketing approval for PAS-004 is the treatment of symptomatic PNs in both adult and pediatric patients with NF1. As such, the Company aims to conduct a Phase 1 trial for pediatric NF1-PN patients and ultimately complete registrational clinical trials in both adult and pediatric NF1-PN populations.
Additionally, the Company has one program, PAS-001, in the discovery stage, which the Company believes addresses limitations in the treatment paradigm for schizophrenia.
During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company through its subsidiaries discontinued providing business support services to anti-depression clinics (the “Clinics” segment) in the U.K. and in the United States, previously conducted through partnerships with healthcare providers. During the year ended December 31, 2023, the at home services in New York, NY as well as in the U.K were discontinued and the Company sold and disposed of the assets associated with the Clinics operations in Los Angeles, CA. The lease associated with the related property in Los Angeles was assumed by the buyer in the transaction.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).
Emerging Growth Company
The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of December 31, 2025, the Company had approximately $55.2 million in operating bank accounts and money market funds, and working capital of approximately $51.5 million. The Company’s major sources of cash have been comprised of proceeds from various private and public offerings, the Initial Public Offering, ATM sales and the exercise of warrants. The Company is dependent on obtaining additional working capital funding from the sale of equity and/or debt securities in order to continue to execute its development plans and continue operations.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared as if the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has incurred significant operating losses and negative cash flows from operations since inception. On December 31, 2025, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $55.2 million and an accumulated deficit of approximately $70.0 million. The Company has incurred recurring losses, has experienced recurring negative operating cash flows, and requires significant cash resources to execute its business plans. Historically, the Company’s major sources of cash have been comprised of proceeds from various public and private offerings of its capital stock. The Company is dependent on obtaining additional working capital funding from the sale of equity and/or debt securities in order to continue to execute its development plans and continue operations. Management considered whether or not there are conditions or events, in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern, and concluded that there are none as it estimates that its cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities will be sufficient to fund its operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements for at least 12 months from the issuance date of these consolidated financial statements. |
