All references in this management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations, or MD&A, to the “Company”, “ProMIS”, “we”, “us”, or “our” refer to ProMIS Neurosciences Inc., unless otherwise indicated or the context requires otherwise. The following MD&A is prepared as of March 25, 2026 for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 (collectively, the “Financial Statements”), which have been prepared by management in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) as issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”). All dollar amounts refer to United States dollars, except as stated otherwise.
Overview
We are applying our patented technology platform to build a portfolio of antibody therapies and therapeutic vaccines in neurodegenerative diseases and other protein-misfolding diseases, with a focus on Alzheimer’s disease (AD), multiple system atrophy (MSA), and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). We believe these diseases share a common biologic cause — misfolded versions of proteins, that otherwise perform a normal function, becoming toxic and killing neurons, resulting in disease. ProMIS’ technology platform enables drug discovery through a combination of protein biology, physics and supercomputing. We believe this platform provides a potential advantage in selectively targeting the toxic misfolded proteins with therapeutics or detecting them with diagnostics.
We are developing a pipeline of antibodies aimed at selectively targeting misfolded toxic forms of proteins that drive neurodegenerative diseases without interfering with the essential functions of the same properly folded proteins. Our product candidates are PMN310, PMN267, and PMN442. Our lead product candidate is PMN310, a monoclonal antibody designed to treat AD by selectively targeting toxic, misfolded oligomers of amyloid-beta. PMN267 is our second lead product candidate targeting ALS. It has been shown in preclinical studies to selectively recognize misfolded, cytoplasmic TDP-43 aggregates without interacting with normal TDP-43. Misfolded TDP-43 is believed to play an important role in the development of ALS. In light of research suggesting that misfolded toxic a-syn is a primary driver of disease in synucleinopathies such as MSA and Parkinson’s disease, our third lead product candidate, PMN442 has shown robust binding to pathogenic a-syn oligomers and seeding fibrils in preclinical studies, with negligible binding to a-syn monomers and physiologic tetramers which are required for normal neuronal function. We also have earlier stage preclinical programs and a project to refine our discovery algorithm using machine learning as highlighted in the “Other Key Projects” section below.
We were incorporated on January 23, 2004 under the Canada Business Corporations Act (CBCA). On July 13, 2023, we continued our existence from a corporation incorporated under the CBCA into the Province of Ontario under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario) (OBCA) (Continuance). The Continuance was approved by our shareholders at our 2023 Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on June 29, 2023. We have a wholly-owned U.S. subsidiary, ProMIS USA, which was incorporated in January 2016 in the State of Delaware. ProMIS USA has had no material activity and has no material financial impact on our Financial Statements. Since our inception, we have devoted substantially all of our resources to developing our platform technologies and the resultant antibody product candidates, building our intellectual property portfolio, business planning, raising capital and providing general and administrative support for these operations. We have principally financed our operations through public and private placements of Common Shares and warrants and convertible debt.
We have incurred significant operating losses since inception. Our ability to generate product revenue sufficient to achieve profitability will depend heavily on the successful development and eventual commercialization of our product candidates and any future product candidates. We had an operating loss of $40.2 million and $16.8 million for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. As of December 31, 2025, we had an accumulated deficit of $130.4 million. We had negative cash flows from operations of $28.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2025. In July 2025, we received gross proceeds of $21.6 million from discounted warrant exercises, the sale of additional warrants in private placements, and the sale of pre-funded warrants to purchase Common Shares in a registered direct offering, less transaction costs of $1.4 million. Refer to additional discussion in Note 6.

Table of Contents
In January 2026, we received gross proceeds of $75.5 million from the sale of Common Shares, Common Share warrants, and pre-funded warrants to purchase Common Shares to external investors and certain of our directors and management in a private placement. Fees and other expenses are currently not estimable, as they are still being determined. Refer to additional discussion in Note 14.
Based on our current operating plan, we expect that our existing cash, including the proceeds from January 2026, will be sufficient to fund our operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements through 2027. We have based this estimate on assumptions that may prove to be wrong, and we could exhaust our available capital resources sooner than we expect, including based on our decision to initiate other clinical trials or programs.
However, we expect to continue to incur losses for the foreseeable future and, if able to raise additional funding, would expect our research and development expenses, general and administrative expenses and capital expenditures to increase. In particular, if we are able to raise additional funding we expect our expenses to increase as we continue our development of, and seek regulatory approvals for, our product candidates, as well as continue and initiate new clinical trials, hire additional personnel, and pay fees to outside consultants, lawyers and accountants. In addition, if we obtain marketing approval for any product candidates, we may incur significant commercialization expenses related to product manufacturing, marketing, sales and distribution. We may also incur expenses in connection with the in-licensing or acquisition of additional product candidates.
As a result, we will need substantial additional funding to support our continuing operations and pursue our growth strategy. Until such time as we can generate significant revenue from product sales, if ever, we expect to finance our operations through the sale of equity, debt financings, our “at-the-market” program, or other capital sources, which may include collaborations with other companies or other strategic transactions. We may be unable to raise additional funds or enter into such other agreements or arrangements when needed on favorable terms, or at all. If we fail to raise capital or enter into such agreements as and when needed, we may have to significantly delay, reduce or eliminate the development and commercialization of one or more of our product candidates or delay our pursuit of potential in-licenses or acquisitions.
Because of the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with product development, we are unable to predict the timing or amount of increased expenses or when or if we will be able to achieve or maintain profitability. Even if we are able to generate product sales, we may not become profitable. If we fail to become profitable or are unable to sustain profitability on a continuing basis, then we may be unable to continue our operations at planned levels and be forced to reduce or terminate our operations.
Components of Operating Results
Revenue
We have not generated any revenue since our inception and do not expect to generate any revenue from the sale of our products in the near future, if at all. If our product candidates are successful and result in marketing approval or if we enter into collaboration or license agreements with third parties, we may generate revenue in the future from a combination of product sales or payments from such collaboration or license agreements.
Operating Expenses
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development expenses consist primarily of costs incurred in connection with the development and research of our platform technologies, as well as unrelated discovery program expenses. We expense research and development costs in the periods in which they are incurred. These expenses include:
103
Table of Contents
We enter into consulting, research, and other agreements with commercial entities, researchers, universities, and others for the provision of goods and services. Such arrangements are generally cancelable upon reasonable notice and payment of costs incurred. Costs are considered incurred based on an evaluation of the progress to completion of specific tasks under each contract using information and data provided by the respective vendors, including our clinical sites. These costs consist of direct and indirect costs associated with our platform technologies, as well as fees paid to various entities that perform certain research on our behalf. Depending upon the timing of payments to the service providers, we recognize prepaid expenses or accrued expenses related to these costs. These accrued or prepaid expenses are based on management’s estimates of the work performed under service agreements, milestones achieved, and experience with similar contracts. We monitor each of these factors and adjust estimates accordingly. See Item 1A -“Risk Factors” in this document.
Research and development activities account for a significant portion of our operating expenses. We expect our research and development expenses to increase substantially for the foreseeable future as we continue to implement our business strategy, which includes advancing our platform technologies through clinical development as well as other product candidates into clinical development, expanding our research and development efforts, including hiring additional personnel to support our research efforts, our clinical and product development efforts, and seeking regulatory approvals for our product candidates that successfully complete clinical trials.
We use our personnel and infrastructure resources across multiple research and development programs directed toward identifying and developing product candidates. Our direct research and development expenses consist primarily of external costs, including fees paid to consultants, contractors and CROs in connection with our development activities and the cost of acquiring, developing, and manufacturing clinical study materials.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel costs including salary, bonus, employee-benefits and share-based compensation, costs incurred in development and protection of intellectual property, professional service fees, and other general overhead and facility costs, depreciation, and amortization. We expect our general and administrative expenses to increase substantially for the foreseeable future as we increase our administrative function to support the growth of the business and its continued clinical development activities.
Other Income (Expense)
Other expenses consist primarily of interest expense on certain deferred accounts payable and the loss on issuance of common shares, warrants and pre-funded warrants in the July 2024 Private Placement. Other income consists of changes in the fair value of our warrant liabilities and interest income earned on our cash balances.

Indirect research and development expenses:
Research and development expenses increased by $22.7 million, or 214%, for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the year ended December 31, 2024. This increase is primarily attributable to a $22.0 million increase in spending on our lead program, PMN310, as our Phase 1b clinical trial of PMN 310, which began in late 2024, continued to progress. Employee salaries and benefits also increased by $0.6 million as we hired additional personnel in 2025 to support the Phase 1b study. Consulting expenses increased by $0.1 million while other operating costs remained consistent during the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the year ended December 31, 2024.
General and Administrative Expenses

Table of Contents
General and administrative expenses increased by $0.6 million, or 10%, for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the year ended December 31, 2024. Employee salaries and benefits increased by $1.1 million, primarily due to the recognition of $0.5 million in severance costs in 2025 and the hiring of additional employees in 2025. The $0.7 million decrease in professional and consulting costs included a $0.3 million decrease in external investor and shareholder relations, a $0.2 million decrease in legal fees, and a $0.2 million decrease in insurance costs. Facility-related and other costs increased by $0.3 million due to higher business development, internal investor relations, and conference activity in 2025. Share-based compensation costs decreased by $0.1 million and patent fees stayed consistent.
Other Income (Expense)
Other income (expense) decreased by $19.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the year ended December 31, 2024. The decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in gain on change in fair value of financial instruments of $22.6 million in 2025, which was driven in 2024 by the gain on the change in the July 2024 Private Placement warrant liability, a decrease of $0.2 million in interest income due to higher average cash balances and interest rates during the year ended December 31, 2024, and a decrease of $0.1 million in interest expense, offset by a $3.5 million one-time loss in 2024 on the issuance of common shares, warrants, and pre-funded warrants in issued in the July 2024 Private Placement.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Sources of Liquidity
We are a clinical-stage development company as we have not generated any product revenues to date and do not expect to have significant revenues until we are able to sell a product candidate after obtaining applicable regulatory approvals or we establish collaborations that provide funding, such as licensing fees, milestone payments, royalties, research funding or otherwise. Operations have been financed since inception through the sale of equity and debt securities and the conversion of common share purchase warrants and share options. Our objectives, when managing capital, are to ensure there are sufficient funds available to carry out our research, development and eventual commercialization programs. When we have excess funds, we manage our liquidity risk by investing in highly liquid corporate and government bonds with staggered maturities to provide regular cash flow for current operations. We do not hold any asset-backed commercial paper and our cash is not subject to any external restrictions. We also manage liquidity risk by frequently monitoring actual and projected cash flows. The Board reviews and approves the Company’s operating and capital budgets, as well as any material transactions not in the ordinary course of business. The majority of our accounts payable and accrued liabilities have maturities of less than three months. We are dependent on our ability to generate revenues from our future products or secure additional financing in order to continue our research and development activities and meet our ongoing obligations.
ATM Agreements
In September 22, 2023, we filed a registration statement on Form S-3 with the SEC, which was declared effective on September 29, 2023 (Shelf Registration Statement), in relation to the registration of Common Shares, preferred shares, subscription receipts, debt securities, warrants and/or units of any combination thereof for the purposes of selling, from time to time, our Common Shares, debt securities or other equity securities in one or more offerings. In January 2024, we entered into an At The Market Offering Agreement with BTIG, LLC (2024 ATM Agreement) to provide for the offering, issuance and sale of up to an aggregate amount of $25.0 million of our Common Shares from time to time in “at-the-market” offerings under the Shelf Registration Statement and subject to the limitations thereof, including limitations related to the amount we are able to sell pursuant to such ATM Program based on our public float as of a measuring date preceding the filing of our Annual Report. During the year ended December 31, 2024 we sold 3,034 shares for net proceeds of approximately $0.2 million, after deducting sales commissions. We did not sell any Common Shares in 2025 pursuant to the 2024 ATM Agreement and the 2024 ATM Agreement was terminated in July 2025.
In August 2025, we filed a new shelf registration statement with the SEC. In conjunction with the shelf registration, we entered into an At The Market Offering Agreement with H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC (2025 ATM Agreement) to offer

up to $18.0 million of our Common Shares. During the year ended December 31, 2025, we sold 40,795 Common Shares for net proceeds of $0.7 million, after deducting sales commissions.
Financing Transactions
July 2024 Private Placement
In July 2024, we completed a private placement for aggregate gross proceeds of $30.3 million to sell an aggregate of (a) 390,307 common share units (Common Share Units) sold at $2.15 per Common Share Unit, each consisting of one Common Share and certain accompanying warrants to purchase Common Shares (Tranche A, B and C) and, for certain investors, (b) 174,841 pre-funded units (the Pre-Funded Units and together with the Common Share Units, the Units) sold at $2.14 per Pre-Funded Unit, each consisting of one pre-funded warrant to purchase one Common Share and certain accompanying warrants to purchase Common Shares (Tranche A, B and C), totaling 565,148 each of Tranche A, B and C warrants (July 2024 PIPE). The Common Shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants and pre-funded warrants are referred to herein as the “2024 Warrant Shares.”
The pre-funded warrants have an exercise price of $0.25 per 2024 Warrant Share, are immediately exercisable and will expire when exercised in full. The Tranche A Common Share purchase warrants have an exercise price of $50.50, are exercisable immediately upon Shareholder Approval (as defined below) and will expire upon the earlier of (i) 18 months or (ii) within 60 days of the public announcement via press release or the filing of a Current Report on Form 8-K of 6-month data from the cohorts treated with multiple ascending doses of PMN310. The Tranche B Common Share purchase warrants have an exercise price of $50.50, are exercisable immediately upon Shareholder Approval (as defined below) and will expire upon the earlier of (i) 30 months or (ii) within 60 days of the public announcement via press release or the filing of a Current Report on Form 8-K of 12-month data from the cohorts treated with multiple ascending doses of PMN310. The Tranche C Common Share purchase warrants have an exercise price of $62.50, are immediately exercisable and will expire on July 31, 2029. Pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d), the exercise of the Tranche A and Tranche B Common Share purchase warrants is subject to shareholder approval (Shareholder Approval). We received Shareholder Approval for the Tranche A and Tranche B warrants on October 23, 2024 at a Special Meeting of Shareholders.
July 2025 Registered Direct Offering
On July 22, 2025, we entered into a securities purchase agreement to issue and sell pre-funded warrants to purchase 39,389 Common Shares (RD Offering). The RD Offering pre-funded warrant was sold at an offering price of $0.8124 per share, which represents, if it were applicable, the per share offering price for the Common Shares of the Company, less a $0.0001 per share exercise price for such pre-funded warrant. The gross proceeds from the RD Offering were $0.8 million before deducting offering expenses of $0.1 million.
July 2025 Discounted Exercise of Warrants and Private Placements
Additionally, in July 2025, across multiple transactions dated July 22 and 28, 2025, we accepted discounted exercise offers for 752,885 Common Share warrants, distributed ratably amongst the Tranche A, B, and C warrants from the July 2024 PIPE for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $15.5 million (Discounted Exercise) and sold 1,129,327 new warrants in two private placements for aggregate gross proceeds of $5.3 million (July 22, 2025 PIPE and July 28, 2025 PIPE). The total aggregate gross proceeds across the RD Offering, discounted warrant exercises, and sales of new warrants was $21.6 million, before deducting fees and offering expenses of $1.4 million.
January 2026 Private Placement
On January 29, 2026, we completed a private placement for aggregate gross proceeds of $75.5 million to sell an aggregate of (i) 6,815,296 Common Shares, (ii) Common Share purchase warrants (Common Share Warrants) to purchase 6,915,296 Common Shares, (iii) Pre-Funded Warrants (Pre-Funded Warrants) to purchase 100,000 Common Shares (January 2026 PIPE). The Common Shares issuable upon exercise of the Common Share Warrants and Pre-Funded Warrants are referred to herein as the “2026 Warrant Shares”.
107
Table of Contents
6,090,075 Common Shares were sold at a price of $10.77 per Common Share, 100,000 Pre-Funded Warrants were sold at a price of $10.77 less an exercise price $0.0001 per 2026 Warrant Share and 725,221 Common Shares were sold at a price of $12.13 per Common Share. The Common Share Warrants have an exercise price of $14.40, are exercisable immediately and will expire upon the earlier of (i) within 60 days of the Milestone Event (as defined below) or (ii) February 3, 2031. The Pre-Funded Warrants have an exercise price of $14.40 per 2026 Warrant Share, are immediately exercisable and will expire when exercised in full. For purposes of the foregoing, the “Milestone Event” means the public announcement via press release or the filing of a Current Report on Form 8-K of topline data from the cohorts treated with single ascending doses of PMN310. Fees and other expenses are currently not estimable by the Company, as they are still being determined.
Current Capital Position
We incurred an operating loss of $40.2 million in the year ended December 31, 2025, had an accumulated deficit of $130.4 million as of December 31, 2025, had negative cash flows from operations of $28.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 and finished the year ended December 31, 2025 with negative working capital of $1.2 million.
However, following the closing of the January 2026 Private Placement for gross proceeds of $75.5 million, and based on our current operating plan, we expect that our existing cash will be sufficient to enable us to fund our operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements through 2027. We have based this estimate on assumptions that may prove to be wrong, and we could exhaust our available capital resources sooner than we expect, including based on our decision to initiate other clinical trials or programs.
Additional funding will be necessary to fund future clinical activities. We will seek additional funding through public and private financings, debt financings, collaboration agreements, strategic alliances and licensing agreements. Although we have been successful in raising capital in the past, there is no assurance of success in obtaining such additional financing on terms acceptable to us, if at all, and there is no assurance that we will be able to enter into collaborations or other arrangements. If we are unable to obtain funding, it could force us to delay, reduce or eliminate research and development programs and product portfolio expansion or commercialization efforts. These potential delays, reductions and eliminations could adversely affect future business prospects, and the ability to continue operations.
Cash Flows

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our MD&A is based on our Financial Statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and on a basis consistent with those accounting principles followed by us and disclosed in Note 2 to our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025. The preparation of these Financial Statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires our management to make certain judgments and estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the Financial Statements, as well as the reported expenses incurred during the reporting periods. Our estimates are based on our historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgement about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Significant estimates and judgments include, but are not limited to, accruals for research and development expenses. Accordingly, actual results may differ from these judgments and estimates under different assumptions or conditions and any such difference may be material.
We believe that the following critical accounting estimates discussed below are most important to understanding our historical and future performance, as these estimates relate to the more significant areas involving management’s judgments and estimates.
109
Table of Contents
Accruals for Research and Development Expenses
Substantial portions of the Company’s clinical and preclinical trials and drug substance manufacturing are performed by third-party laboratories, medical centers, and other vendors. These vendors generally bill monthly for services performed, or bill based upon milestone achievement. For clinical and preclinical studies, the Company recognizes and, if necessary, accrues expenses based upon estimated percentage of work completed and the remaining contract milestones. The Company estimates the period over which such services will be performed based on the terms of the agreements as well as the level of effort to be expended in each period. Sometimes the actual timing of performance or the level of effort varies from the estimate, and if that does occur, the Company will adjust the amounts recorded accordingly.
The percentage of work completed is inherently subject to estimation uncertainty, and the Company uses third-party invoices, contract terms, and support provided directly from third parties, when available, to establish the percentage of completion at each measurement date. A hypothetical difference in estimated percentage of work completed compared to actual percentage of work completed of 10% for a $1.0 million contract at the measurement date could have a $0.1 million impact on accrued liabilities and research and development expenses. The Company had $7.4 million of accrued research and development costs and $2.6 million of prepaid upfront research payments, which had not yet been recognized at December 31, 2025, and which are from multiple contracts.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
A description of recently issued accounting pronouncements that may potentially impact our financial position and results of operations is disclosed in Note 2 to our audited consolidated financial statements in Item 8 – “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data”.
Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
In the normal course of business, we are exposed to a number of financial risks that can affect our operating performance. These risks are credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk. Our overall risk management program and prudent business practices seek to minimize any potential adverse effects on our financial performance.
Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a significant concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash and short-term investments. We manage our exposure to credit losses by placing our cash with accredited financial institutions, which at times, may exceed federally insured limits, and when we have excess funds, such funds are invested in high-quality government and corporate issuers with low credit risk. Cash held is not subject to any external restrictions. As of the year ended December 31, 2025, a hypothetical 10% relative change in interest rates would not have a material impact on our Financial Statements.
Liquidity Risk
Our exposure to liquidity risk is dependent on purchasing obligations and raising funds to meet commitments and sustain operations. We are a pre-revenue clinical-stage development company, and we rely on external fundraising to support our operations. We also manage liquidity risk by continuously monitoring actual and projected cash flows. Our Board reviews and approves the Company’s operating budget, as well as any material transaction.
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk
We are exposed to foreign exchange risk on our non-U.S. dollar denominated cash and non-U.S. dollar denominated liabilities. We do not believe that foreign exchange impacts had a material effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations during the years ended December 31, 2025 or 2024.
Inflation Risk
Inflation generally affects us by increasing our cost of labor, outside consultants and CROs. We do not believe that inflation had a material effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations during the years ended December 31, 2025 or 2024.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of
ProMIS Neurosciences Inc. and Subsidiary
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of ProMIS Neurosciences Inc. and Subsidiary (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders’ (deficit) equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

1.DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Business Description
ProMIS Neurosciences Inc. (the “Company” or “ProMIS”) is applying its patented technology platform to build a portfolio of antibody therapies, therapeutic vaccines, and other antibody-based therapies in neurodegenerative diseases and other protein-misfolding diseases, with a focus on Alzheimer’s disease (AD), multiple system atrophy (MSA), and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). The Company believes these diseases share a common biologic cause — misfolded versions of proteins, that otherwise perform a normal function, becoming toxic and killing neurons, resulting in disease. ProMIS’ technology platform enables drug discovery through a combination of protein biology, physics and supercomputing. ProMIS believes this platform provides a potential advantage in selectively targeting the toxic misfolded proteins with therapeutics or detecting them with diagnostics.
The Company is developing a pipeline of antibodies aimed at selectively targeting misfolded toxic forms of proteins that drive neurodegenerative diseases without interfering with the essential functions of the same properly folded proteins. The Company's product candidates are PMN310, PMN267, and PMN442. The lead product candidate is PMN310, a monoclonal antibody designed to treat AD by selectively targeting toxic, misfolded oligomers of amyloid-beta. PMN267 is our second lead product candidate targeting ALS. It has been shown in preclinical studies to selectively recognize misfolded, cytoplasmic TDP 43 aggregates without interacting with normal TDP 43. Misfolded TDP 43 is believed to play an important role in the development of ALS. In light of research suggesting that misfolded toxic a-syn is a primary driver of disease in synucleinopathies such as MSA and Parkinson’s disease, our third lead product candidate, PMN442, has shown robust binding to pathogenic a-syn oligomers and seeding fibrils in preclinical studies, with negligible binding to a-syn monomers and physiologic tetramers which are required for normal neuronal function.
The Company was incorporated on January 23, 2004 under the Canada Business Corporations Act (“CBCA”). On July 13, 2023, the Company continued its existence from a corporation incorporated under the CBCA into the Province of Ontario under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario) (“OBCA”) (“Continuance”). The Continuance was approved by the Company’s shareholders at the Company’s 2023 Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on June 29, 2023. The Company is located at 1920 Yonge Street, Toronto, Ontario. The Company’s Common Shares are traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) under the symbol PMN. The Company has a wholly-owned U.S. subsidiary, ProMIS Neurosciences (U.S.) Inc. (“ProMIS USA”), which was incorporated in January 2016 in the State of Delaware. As of December 31, 2025, ProMIS USA has had no material activity and has no material financial impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The accompanying consolidated financial statements were prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that the Company will continue its operations for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. To date, the Company has not generated revenues from its activities. The Company had an operating loss of $40.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, an accumulated deficit of $130.4 million as of December 31, 2025, and negative cash flows from operations of $28.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2025. In January 2026, the Company received gross proceeds of $75.5 million from the sale of Common Shares, Common Share warrants, and pre-funded warrants to purchase Common Shares to external investors and certain of the Company’s directors and management in a private placement. Fees and other expenses are currently not estimable by the Company, as they are still being determined. Refer to additional discussion in Note 14.

Table of Contents
Based on the Company’s current operating plan, the Company expects that its existing cash, including the proceeds from January 2026, will be sufficient to fund the Company’s operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements through 2027. The Company based this estimate on assumptions that may prove to be wrong, and the Company could exhaust its available capital resources sooner than it expects, including based on its decision to initiate other clinical trials or programs.
Future capital requirements will depend upon many factors, including the timing and extent of spending on research and development and market acceptance of the Company’s products, if approved for commercial sale. The Company will require additional funding to conduct future clinical activities. The Company expects to seek additional funding through public and private financings, debt financings, collaboration agreements, strategic alliances and licensing agreements. Although the Company has been successful in raising capital in the past, there is no assurance of success in obtaining such additional financing on terms acceptable to us, if at all, and there is no assurance that the Company will be able to enter into collaborations or other arrangements. If the Company is unable to obtain funding or other arrangements, it could force delays, reduce or eliminate research and development programs, and/or reduce product portfolio expansion or commercialization efforts, which could adversely affect future business prospects, and the ability to continue operations.
2.BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Any reference in these notes to applicable guidance is meant to refer to the authoritative GAAP as found in the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and as amended by Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”).
On November 17, 2025, the board of directors of the Company authorized a reverse share split of the issued and outstanding Common Shares in a ratio of 25:1, effective November 28, 2025 (the “Reverse Share Split”). All information included in these consolidated financial statements has been adjusted, on a retrospective basis, to reflect the Reverse Share Split, unless otherwise stated.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates, judgements and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates and assumptions made in the accompanying consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, the accrual for research and development expenses and the valuation of financial instruments. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and such differences could be material to the consolidated financial statements.

Segment Information
Operating segments are identified as components of an enterprise about which separate discrete financial information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), or decision-making group, in making decisions on how to allocate resources and assess performance. The Company has one operating segment and its Chief Executive Officer serves as the CODM. Substantially all of the Company’s assets are located in Canada. Refer to additional Segment Information in Note 10.
Foreign and Functional Currency
The Company determines its functional currency as the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Company operates. To determine the primary economic environment, the Company considers salient economic factors, including cash flow indicators, expense indicators and financing indicators. Functional currency is a matter of fact, not a policy election and the Company will only reevaluate its functional currency if there is a significant change in facts and circumstances.
Prior to July 1, 2023, the Company’s functional currency was the Canadian dollar (“C$”). Translation gains and losses from the application of the United States dollar (“US$”) as the reporting currency during the period that the Canadian dollar was the functional currency were included as part of cumulative foreign currency translation adjustment, which is reported as a component of stockholders’ (deficit) equity as accumulated other comprehensive loss.
Following the Company’s voluntary delisting from the Toronto Stock Exchange in July 2023, the Company determined there was a significant change in its facts and circumstances, and completed a reassessment of its functional currency. The Company determined that, as of July 1, 2023, the Company’s functional currency had changed from the C$ to the US$. The Company reassessment included analysis of various factors, including: the Company’s cash flows and expenses denominated primarily in US$, the primary market for the Company’s Common Shares trading in US$ and a majority ownership by U.S. shareholders from financings denominated in US$. The change in functional currency was accounted for prospectively from July 1, 2023 and consolidated financial statements prior to and including the period ended June 30, 2023 were not restated for the change in functional currency.
For periods commencing July 1, 2023, monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into US$ using exchange rates in effect at the end of the reporting period. Opening balances related to non-monetary assets and liabilities are based on prior period translated amounts, and non-monetary assets acquired, and non-monetary liabilities incurred after July 1, 2023 are translated at the approximate exchange rate prevailing at the date of the transaction. Revenue and expense transactions are translated at the approximate exchange rate in effect at the time of the transaction. Foreign exchange gains and losses are included in the consolidated statement of operations within operating expenses.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company did not have any material cash equivalents.
Short-term Investments
Short-term investments consist of guaranteed certificates of deposit with a maturity greater than 90 days and up to one year at the time of purchase. Accordingly, all short-term investments are classified as current assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The short-term investment is being held as collateral for the Company’s credit cards.
F-9
Table of Contents
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a significant concentration of credit risk consist of cash and short-term investments. Cash is deposited in checking and money market accounts at accredited financial institutions, which at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The short-term investment is deposited in a guaranteed certificate of deposit with an accredited financial institution that guarantees 100% of the original amount invested. As of December 31, 2025, the Company has not experienced any losses on its cash or short-term investments as a result of credit risk.
Fair Value Measurements
FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, (“ASC 820”) defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value are to be classified and disclosed in one of the following three levels of the fair value hierarchy, as established by ASC 820, of which the first two are considered observable and the last is considered unobservable:
To the extent that the valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised by the Company in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3. Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
The Company’s warrant liabilities were classified as Level 3 financial instruments for the year ended December 31, 2024. The Company’s share-based compensation liability was classified as a Level 3 financial instrument for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.
The carrying amounts of prepaid and other current assets, short-term investments, accounts payable, and accrued expenses are generally considered to be representative of their fair value based on the short-term nature of these financial instruments.
Impairment of Long-lived Assets
The Company historically evaluates its long-lived assets, which consist of property and equipment and definite-lived intangible assets, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the estimated future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. The Company did not have any material long-lived assets as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.
F-10
Table of Contents
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment, net are historically stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation expense is recognized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of each asset. Laboratory and equipment are depreciated over two to five years. Computer equipment is depreciated over two to three years. Upon retirement or sale, the cost of assets disposed of and the related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and any resulting gain or loss is included in loss from operations in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. The Company did not have any material property and equipment as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.
Intangible Assets
Definite-lived intangible assets are historically stated at cost less accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment losses. An intangible asset’s carrying amount is assessed for impairment whenever there is an indication that the asset may be impaired. The Company’s definite-lived intangible assets consist of acquired rights and patents. Intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over the lesser of the life of the intangible asset or its estimated useful life, which is 15 years. The Company did not have any material intangible assets as of December 31, 2025.
Collaboration Arrangements
The Company may enter into collaboration arrangements with pharmaceutical and biotechnology partners. The Company analyzes its collaboration arrangements to assess whether they are within the scope of FASB ASC 808, Collaborative Arrangements, (“ASC 808”), to determine whether such arrangements involve joint operating activities performed by the parties that are both active participants in the activities and exposed to significant risks and rewards dependent on the commercial success of such activities. This assessment is performed throughout the life of the arrangement based on changes in responsibilities of all parties in the arrangement. ASC 808 does not provide guidance on the recognition of consideration exchanged or accounting for the obligations that may arise between parties. The Company concluded that ASC Topic 730, Research and Development, should be applied by analogy to payments between parties during the development activities of its collaboration arrangements.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel costs including salary, bonus, employee-benefits and share-based compensation, costs incurred in development and protection of intellectual property, professional service fees, and other general overhead and facility costs, including rent, depreciation and amortization, which relate to the Company’s general and administrative functions.
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development expenses consist primarily of costs incurred in connection with the development and research of the Company’s platform technology, as well as discovery program expenses. The Company expenses research and development costs as incurred. These expenses include:
F-11
Table of Contents
Prepaid and Accrued Research and Development Expenses
Substantial portions of the Company’s pre-clinical development, manufacturing and clinical trials are performed by third-party laboratories, medical centers, CROs and other vendors. These vendors generally bill monthly for services performed, or bill based upon milestone achievement. For preclinical and clinical studies, the Company accrues expenses based upon estimated work completed and the remaining contract milestones. At times, the Company is obligated to make upfront payments upon execution of research and development agreements. Upfront payments, including nonrefundable amounts, for goods or services that will be used or rendered for future research and development activities are capitalized as prepaid expenses until such goods are delivered or the related services are performed. The Company estimates the period over which such services will be performed based on the terms of the agreements as well as the level of effort to be expended in each period. The actual timing of performance or the level of effort may vary from the estimate, and if that does occur, the Company will adjust the amounts recorded accordingly.
Patent Costs
All patent-related costs incurred in connection with filing and prosecuting patent applications are expensed as incurred due to the uncertainty about the recovery of the expenditure. Amounts incurred are classified as general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
Warrants
The Company issues warrants, including pre-funded warrants, on its common shares in connection with financings as well as for compensation of intermediaries and advisors. The Company accounts for warrants as either equity instruments or as liabilities depending on the specific terms of the warrant agreements in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging and Topic 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity. When classified as equity, warrants are recorded within additional paid-in-capital at the time of issuance and are not subsequently remeasured. Warrants identified as meeting the definition of a liability are recognized as a liability and treated in accordance with the derivative liability accounting policy described above. The Company periodically reassesses the appropriateness of the classification of its financial instruments.
Share-based Compensation
Share-based compensation expense related to share awards granted to employees, directors and non-employees, excluding awards with market conditions in which the award does not vest unless the market condition is met, is recognized based on the grant-date estimated fair values of the awards using the Black- Scholes option pricing model (“Black-Scholes”). The value is recognized as expense ratably over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting term of the award. The Company adjusts the expense for actual forfeitures as they occur. Share-based compensation expense is classified in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations based on the function to which the related services are provided.
Black Scholes requires a number of assumptions, of which the most significant are expected volatility, expected option term (the time from the grant date until the options are exercised or expire) and risk-free rate. Expected volatility is determined using the historical volatility for the Company. The risk-free interest rate is based on the yield of U.S. government treasury bonds with a remaining term equal to the expected life of the option for C$ options and based on the yield of U.S. government treasury bonds for US$ options. Expected dividend yield is zero because the Company has never paid cash dividends on common shares and the Company does not expect to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future.
For awards with market conditions in which the award does not vest unless the market condition is met, the Company will incorporate the market condition into the award’s grant date fair value calculation and derive the expected service period using a Monte Carlo simulation. The estimated expense is recognized on a straight-line
F-12
Table of Contents
basis over the derived service period. If the market condition is satisfied during the derived service period, the remaining unrecognized expense is recognized during the period the market condition is satisfied.
Awards of options that provide for an exercise price that is not denominated in: (a) the currency of a market in which a substantial portion of the Company's equity securities trades in, (b) the currency in which the employee's pay is denominated, or (c) the Company's functional currency, are required to be classified as liabilities. The change in the Company’s functional currency, effective July 1, 2023, resulted in the reclassification of outstanding stock options that were previously denominated in C$ from equity-classified to liability-classified options (see Note 8), which are accounted for as a share option modification in accordance with FASB’s ASC 718 – Compensation – Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”). Under ASC 718, when an award is reclassified from equity to liability, if at the reclassification date the original vesting conditions are expected to be satisfied, then the minimum amount of compensation cost to be recognized is based on the grant date fair value of the original award. Fair value changes below this minimum amount are recorded in additional paid-in capital. For each reporting period after the modification date, the stock option liability is adjusted so that it equals the portion of the requisite service provided multiplied by the modified award’s fair value at the end of the reporting period. Increases in the fair value of the liability in excess of the minimum grant date compensation cost described above are recognized as share-based compensation in operating expenses in the consolidated statement of operations.
Share Issuance Costs
Common share issuance costs are incremental costs directly associated with an offering of securities. These costs typically include fees paid to bankers or underwriters, attorneys, accountants, as well as printers and other third parties. Prior to the effective date of an offering of equity securities, specific incremental costs directly attributable to a proposed or actual offering of securities may be deferred and charged against the gross proceeds of the offering. The Company capitalizes these deferred financing costs as prepaid expenses and other current assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets until the completion of the offering, unless the offering is abandoned, at which time the deferred financing costs will be recognized in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company had approximately $32,000 and $0 in deferred financing costs as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, which was recorded in prepaid expenses and other current assets on the consolidated balance sheets.
Income Taxes
The Company is a taxable entity under the Income Tax Act (Canada). Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the respective income tax bases of assets and liabilities, measured using substantively enacted income tax rates and laws that are expected to be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent it is more likely than not that taxable income will be available against which the deferred tax asset can be utilized. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
The Company follows the provisions of ASC 740-10, Uncertainty in Income Taxes (“ASC 740-10”). The Company has not recognized a liability as a result of the implementation of ASC 740-10. A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits has not been provided since there is no unrecognized benefit since the date of adoption. The Company has not recognized interest expense or penalties as a result of the implementation of ASC 740-10. If there were an unrecognized tax benefit, the Company would recognize interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in operating expenses.
Basic and Diluted Net (Loss) Income Per Share
Basic net (loss) income per common share is based upon the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net (loss) income per common share utilizing the treasury-stock method is based upon the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period plus additional weighted-average common equivalent shares outstanding during the period when the effect is dilutive. Potentially
F-13
Table of Contents
dilutive shares result from the assumed potential exercise or conversion of securities, such as convertible debt, share options and warrants, which would result in the issuance of incremental shares of common shares. The proceeds of such exercises or conversions are assumed to have been used to repurchase outstanding stock using the treasury stock method.
Both basic and diluted net (loss) income per share calculations include financial instruments that allow for the purchase of common shares issuable for little to no consideration, including pre-funded warrants.
Emerging Growth Company Status
The Company is an Emerging Growth Company, as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (“JOBS Act”). Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards issued subsequent to the enactment of the JOBS Act, until such time as those standards apply to private companies. The Company has elected to use this extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until the earlier of the date that it (i) is no longer an emerging growth company or (ii) affirmatively and irrevocably opts out of the extended transition period provided in the JOBS Act. As a result, these consolidated financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with the new or revised accounting pronouncements as of public company effective dates.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740):Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”), which requires public entities to disclose in their rate reconciliation table additional categories of information about federal, state and foreign income taxes and to provide more details about the reconciling items in some categories if items meet a quantitative threshold. ASU 2023-09 became effective for the annual period starting on January 1, 2025. The Company’s income tax disclosures are disclosed in Note 9.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220- 40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“ASU 2024-03”), which requires public entities, among other items, to disclose in a tabular format, on an annual and interim basis, purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, intangible asset amortization and depletion for each income statement line item that contains those expenses. ASU 2024-03 becomes effective for the annual period starting on January 1, 2027 and interim periods starting on January 1, 2028. The Company is in the process of analyzing the impact that the adoption of ASU 2024-03 will have on its disclosures.

The Pre-Funded Warrants have an exercise price of $0.25 per 2024 Warrant Share, are immediately exercisable and will expire when exercised in full. The Tranche A Common Share purchase warrants have an exercise price of $50.50, for aggregate gross proceeds of up to $28.5 million, are exercisable immediately upon Shareholder Approval (as defined below) and will expire upon the earlier of (i) 18 months or (ii) within 60 days of the Tranche A Milestone Event (as defined below). The Tranche B Common Share purchase warrants have an exercise price of $50.50, for aggregate gross proceeds of up to $28.5 million, are exercisable immediately upon Shareholder Approval (as defined below) and will expire upon the earlier of (i) 30 months or (ii) within 60 days of the Tranche B Milestone Event (as defined below). The Tranche C Common Share purchase warrants have an exercise price of $62.50, for aggregate gross proceeds of up to $35.3 million, are immediately exercisable and will expire on July 31, 2029. For purposes of the foregoing, “Tranche A Milestone Event” means the public announcement via press release or the filing of a Current Report on Form 8-K of 6-month data from the cohorts treated with multiple ascending doses of PMN310, and “Tranche B Milestone Event” means the public announcement via press release or the filing of a Current Report on Form 8-K of 12-month data from the cohorts treated with multiple ascending doses of PMN310. Pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d), the exercise of the Tranche A and Tranche B Common Share purchase warrants is subject to shareholder approval (“Shareholder Approval”). The Company agreed to convene a shareholders’ meeting, or otherwise obtain written Shareholder Approval, on or before 90 days following the Closing Date, to obtain such approval.
The Tranche A and Tranche B Warrants (“AB Warrants”) were classified as liabilities (“AB Warrant Liability”) and recorded at fair value utilizing level 3 inputs at issuance due to the requirement for Shareholder Approval. Under the applicable accounting guidance, the requirement for Shareholder Approval precludes a financial instrument from equity classification, as it cannot be considered indexed to the Company's own stock. The preclusion is because of the potential of the settlement amount differing than a fixed for fixed option on the Company's shares. The fair value of the AB Warrant Liability at issuance was determined to be $31,182,033, calculated using a Black Scholes calculation on July 26, 2024 with the following weighted average assumptions: share price of $50.50, the most currently available Nasdaq Official Closing Price for the Company’s Common Shares when the Company entered into the purchase agreements, exercise price of $50.50, volatility of 102.5%, risk-free rate of 4.34%, and a term of 2.1 years.
The Company incurred offering costs totaling $2,675,487 that consisted of placement agent fees and direct incremental legal, advisory, accounting and filing fees relating to the July 2024 PIPE, resulting in net cash proceeds of $27,657,497. The value of the AB Warrants exceeded the net proceeds received. As a result, the entire proceeds and offering costs were allocated to the AB Warrant liability, and also resulted in a loss on issuance of common shares, warrants, and pre-funded warrants of $3,524,535, which was recorded in other income (expense) in the consolidated statements of operations.
On October 23, 2024, Shareholder Approval for the AB Warrants was obtained during the Company’s Special Meeting of Shareholders. Following Shareholder Approval, the Company determined that the AB Warrants met the criteria for equity classification. The Company re-measured the fair value of the AB Warrant Liability at October 23, 2024 to $8,689,149, calculated using a Black Scholes calculation with the following weighted average assumptions: volatility of 100.9%, share price of $23.75, exercise price of $50.50, risk-free rate of 4.10%, and a term of 1.9 years. The change in fair value of the AB Warrant Liability of $22,492,884 was recorded in other income (expense) in the consolidated statements of operations and the remaining fair value of $8,689,149 was reclassified from liability to additional paid-in-capital in the consolidated balance sheets. As of December 31, 2025, 942,510 warrants issued with the July 2024 PIPE are outstanding (314,170 each from Tranche A, Tranche B, and Tranche C).

On July 22, 2025, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement relating to the issuance and sale of a pre-funded warrant to purchase 39,389 Common Shares (the “RD Pre-funded Warrant”) to such investor (the “RD Offering”). The RD Pre-funded Warrant was sold at an offering price of $20.31 per share, which represents, if it were applicable, the per share offering price for the Common Shares of the Company, less a $0.0025 per share exercise price for such Pre-funded Warrant. The gross proceeds from the RD Offering were $800,000 before deducting offering expenses of $102,342.
July 22, 2025 Exercise of Discounted Warrants and PIPE
On July 22, 2025, the Company accepted a discounted warrant exercise offer from a healthcare-focused institutional investor for certain July 2024 PIPE warrants (“July 22, 2025 Discounted Exercise”). Related to the July 22, 2025 Discounted Exercise, the Company also entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “July 22, 2025 PIPE”) with the same existing healthcare-focused institutional investor. The Company raised $9,199,765 in aggregate gross proceeds from the July 22, 2025 Discounted Exercise and July 22, 2025 PIPE before deducting $808,738 in transaction costs paid by the Company.
In the July 22, 2025 Discounted Exercise, the Company issued336,449 Common Shares in exchange for the exercise of 336,449 of the July 2024 PIPE warrants (112,150 each from Tranche A, Tranche B, and Tranche C) for $20.31 per warrant. The Company determined that discounting the exercise price represented a modification of the July 2024 PIPE warrants. In accordance with ASC815 –Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”), the Company accounted for the incremental fair value of the modification as the difference between the pre-modification fair value and the post-modification fair value of the July 2024 PIPE warrants, as calculated using Black-Scholes. The modification date incremental fair value of $930,841 was initially recorded as a deferred financing cost, as the discount was directly attributable to a proposed offering, and was subsequently recognized as an equity issuance cost upon the closing of the July 22, 2025 Discounted Exercise and July 22, 2025 PIPE. The range of valuation inputs used in the pre-modification fair value Black Scholes calculation of the July 2024 PIPE warrants included a share price of $14.70, exercise prices of $50.50-$62.50, time to maturity of 0.53-4.02 years, risk free rate of 3.9%-4.3%, and annualized volatility of 106.5%. The post-modification fair value Black Scholes calculation used the same fair value inputs asthepre-modificationfair value calculation apart from the modified exercise price of $20.31.

Pursuant to the terms of the July 22, 2025 PIPE, the Company agreed to sell a warrant to purchase 504,673 Common Shares (the “July 22, 2025 Warrant”). The July 22, 2025 Warrant was sold to the investor at an offering price of $4.69 per share and has an exercise price of $31.25 per share.
The July 22, 2025 Warrant is immediately exercisable and will expire five years after the date of issuance. The holder of the July 22, 2025 Warrant may not exercise it if the holder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own more than 4.99% (or, at the election of the holder, 9.99%) of the number of Common Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise.
The Company determined the July 22, 2025 Warrant met the permanent equity criteria classification. The July 22, 2025 Warrant is classified as a component of permanent equity because it is a freestanding financial instrument, is immediately exercisable, does not embody an obligation for the Company to repurchase its shares, and permits the holders to receive a fixed number of common shares upon exercise. In addition, the July 22, 2025 Warrant does not provide any guarantee of value or return. The Company used a Black-Scholes calculation to determine the fair value of the July 22, 2025 Warrant at issuance and allocated a share of the net proceeds based on the relative fair value of the July 22, 2025 Warrant. Net proceeds allocated to the July 22, 2025 Warrant were $4,284,557, with the remaining net proceeds of $4,106,470 allocated to the Common Shares issued in the July 22, 2025 Discounted Exercise. The aggregate net proceeds of $8,391,027 are recorded in additional paid-in-capital. The valuation inputs used in the Black Scholes calculation of the July 22, 2025 Warrant at issuance included a share price of $14.70, exercise price of $31.25, time to maturity of 5 years, risk free rate of 3.9%, and annualized volatility of 106.5%.

The Company determined that discounting the exercise price represented a modification of the July 2024 PIPE warrants. In accordance with ASC 815, the Company accounted for the incremental fair value of the modification as the difference between the pre-modification fair value and the post-modification fair value of the July 2024 PIPE warrants, as calculated using Black-Scholes. The modification date incremental fair value of $1,794,146 was initially recorded as a deferred financing cost, as the discount was directly attributable to a proposed offering, and was subsequently recognized as an equity issuance cost upon the closing of the July 28, 2025 Discounted Exercise and July 28, 2025 PIPE.The range of valuation inputs used in the pre-modification fair value Black Scholes calculation of the July 2024 PIPE warrants included a share price of $20.88, exercise prices of $50.50-$62.50, time to maturity of 0.52-4.01 years, risk free rate of 3.9%-4.3%, and annualized volatility of 107.4%.

November 2025 Reverse Share Split
On November 28, 2025, the Company filed articles of amendment to effect a one-for-twenty-five reverse share split of its Common Shares (the “Reverse Share Split”). As a result of the Reverse Share Split, every 25 Common Shares issued or outstanding were automatically reclassified into one validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable new Common Share, subject to the treatment of fractional shares as described below, without any action on the part of the holders. Proportional adjustments were made to the number of Common Shares awarded and available for issuance under the Company’s equity incentive plans, as well as the exercise price and the number of shares issuable upon the exercise or conversion of the Company’s outstanding stock options and other equity securities under the Company’s equity incentive plans. All outstanding warrants were also adjusted in accordance with their terms, which resulted, among other changes to the warrant terms, in proportionate adjustments being made to the number of shares issuable upon exercise of such warrants and to the exercise prices of such warrants. The Common Shares outstanding following the Reverse Share Split remain fully paid and non-assessable. The Reverse Share Split did not affect the number of authorized Common Shares or the par value of the Common Shares. All share and per-share amounts have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the Reverse Share Split.

10.Segment Reporting
Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate discrete information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision maker, or decision making group, in deciding how to allocate resources in assessing performance. The Company has one reportable segment: life science. The life science segment consists of the development of clinical and preclinical product candidates. The Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) is the chief executive officer.
The accounting policies of the life science segment are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. The CODM assesses performance for the life science segment based on net (loss) income, which is reported on the income statement as consolidated net loss (income). The measure of segment assets is reported on the balance sheet as total consolidated assets.
