PULMATRIX,
INC.
Notes
to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
(in
thousands, except share and per share data)
1.
Organization
Pulmatrix,
Inc. (“Pulmatrix” or the “Company”) was incorporated in 2013 as a Delaware corporation. The Company is a biopharmaceutical
company that has focused on the development of a novel inhaled therapeutic products intended to prevent and treat migraine and respiratory
diseases with important unmet medical needs using its patented iSPERSE™ technology. The Company’s proprietary dry powder
delivery platform, iSPERSE™, is engineered to deliver small, dense particles with highly efficient dispersibility and delivery
to the airways, which can be used with an array of dry powder inhaler technologies and can be formulated with a variety of drug substances.
Agreement
and Plan of Merger and Reorganization
On
November 13, 2024, Pulmatrix and Cullgen Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Cullgen”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger
and Reorganization, as amended by Amendment No. 1 thereto on April 7, 2025 (the “Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which, among
other matters, PCL Merger Sub, Inc., a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Pulmatrix (“Merger Sub”), will merge with and into
Cullgen, with Cullgen surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of Pulmatrix, and the surviving corporation of the merger (the “Merger”).
Pursuant
to the Merger Agreement, prior to the closing of the Merger (the “Closing”), Pulmatrix currently expects to declare a
cash dividend to the pre-Merger Pulmatrix stockholders equal in the aggregate to Pulmatrix’s reasonable, good faith
approximation of the amount by which Pulmatrix’s net cash (as determined pursuant to the Merger Agreement) will exceed $2.5
million, subject to certain adjustments and limitations (such excess amount, the “Cash Dividend”).
Subject
to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, at the Closing, (a) each then-outstanding share of Cullgen common stock other than
dissenting shares, will be converted into the right to receive a number of shares of Pulmatrix common stock calculated in accordance
with the Merger Agreement (the “Exchange Ratio”), (b) each then-outstanding share of Cullgen preferred stock, other than
dissenting shares, will be converted into the right to receive a number of shares of Pulmatrix common stock equal to the number of shares
of Cullgen common stock issuable upon conversion of each share of Cullgen preferred stock multiplied by the Exchange Ratio and (c) each
then-outstanding option to purchase Cullgen common stock, whether vested or unvested, will be assumed by Pulmatrix, subject to adjustment
to reflect the Exchange Ratio as set forth in the Merger Agreement.
In
connection with the Merger: (i) each share of Pulmatrix common stock that is issued and outstanding at the Effective Time (as defined
below) of the Merger will remain issued and outstanding and such shares, subject to the proposed Pulmatrix reverse stock split, will
be unaffected by the Merger; (ii) each option to acquire shares of Pulmatrix common stock outstanding but then not vested or exercisable
shall be accelerated in full; (iii) each option to acquire shares of Pulmatrix common stock with an exercise price per share greater
than $10.00 per share shall be cancelled for no consideration; (iv) each option to acquire shares of Pulmatrix common stock with an exercise
price less than or equal to the Pulmatrix Closing Price (as defined herein) will be converted into the right to receive the number of
shares underlying such Pulmatrix option, reduced as set forth in the Merger Agreement; (v) each option to acquire shares of Pulmatrix
common stock with an exercise price greater than the volume weighted average closing trading price of a share of Parent Common Stock
on Nasdaq for the five (5) consecutive trading days ending three (3) trading days immediately prior to the Closing Date as reported by
Bloomberg L.P. (the “Pulmatrix Closing Price”), but less than $10.00 per share, will remain outstanding; and (vi) each warrant
to acquire shares of Pulmatrix common stock that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time of the Merger
shall survive the Closing and remain outstanding in accordance with its terms; provided that the holders of any such warrants which remain
outstanding following closing may elect to require Pulmatrix to pay such holders cash in exchange for the termination of the remaining
unexercised portion of such warrants if contemplated by the terms of such warrants.
Under
the Exchange Ratio formula in the Merger Agreement, upon the Closing, on a pro forma basis and based upon the number of shares of Pulmatrix
common stock expected to be issued in the Merger, pre-Merger Cullgen stockholders will own approximately 96.4% of the combined company
and pre-Merger Pulmatrix stockholders will own approximately 3.6% of the combined company on a fully-diluted basis (excluding out-of-the-money
options and warrants and any shares reserved for future grants under Pulmatrix’s equity incentive plans). Under certain circumstances
further described in the Merger Agreement, the ownership percentages may be adjusted upward or downward based on Pulmatrix’s net
cash at the Closing.
The
Exchange Ratio assumes (i) a valuation for Pulmatrix of $10.5 million (comprised of $8 million in enterprise value and $2.5 million in
cash) and (ii) a valuation for Cullgen of $280.0 million. The Exchange Ratio is also based on the relative capitalization of each of
Pulmatrix and Cullgen, for which, for the purposes of calculating the Exchange Ratio, the shares of Pulmatrix common stock underlying
Pulmatrix’s in-the-money stock options outstanding immediately prior to the time of the Closing (the “Effective Time”),
as adjusted to take into account the Cash Dividend will be deemed outstanding, and all shares of Cullgen common stock underlying outstanding
Cullgen’s stock options will be deemed outstanding, subject to certain exceptions as set forth in the Merger Agreement.
On
June 16, 2025, the Company held a special meeting in lieu of the annual meeting of Pulmatrix stockholders, at which the
Company’s stockholders approved the Merger and related proposals. The Closing is subject to other customary closing
conditions, including Nasdaq’s approval of the listing of the shares of Pulmatrix common stock to be issued in connection with
the Merger and approval from the China Security Regulatory Commission (“CSRC”) pursuant to the Trial Administrative
Measures of Overseas Securities Offering and Listing by Domestic Enterprises (the “Trial Measures”), No. 1 to No. 6
Supporting Guidance Rules, the Notice on Administration Arrangements for the Filing of Overseas Listings by Domestic Enterprises and
the relevant CSRC Answers to Reporter Questions on the official website of the CSRC. These regulations established a filing-based
regime to regulate overseas offerings and listings by Chinese domestic companies. As of the date of this filing, Pulmatrix has not
yet received approval from the CSRC to complete the Merger. On August 1, 2025, Pulmatrix and Cullgen, as provided for in the Merger Agreement, mutually agreed to extend the term of the Merger Agreement by 60 days from an end date of August 13, 2025 to a new term end date of October 12, 2025.
The
Merger Agreement contains certain termination rights of each of Pulmatrix and Cullgen. Upon termination of the Merger Agreement under
specified circumstances, Pulmatrix may be required to pay Cullgen a termination fee of $420,000, and in certain other circumstances,
Cullgen may be required to pay Pulmatrix a termination fee of either $2,800,000 or $8,400,000.
If the Merger is completed, the business of Cullgen will continue as the
business of the combined company. Concurrent
with the Merger, the Company will seek to monetize its intellectual property, including iSPERSE™ and its clinical assets (the “Asset
Sale”).
The
Company’s future operations are highly dependent on the success of the Merger and there can be no assurances that the Merger will
be successfully consummated. There can be no assurance that the strategic review process or any transaction relating to a specific asset,
including the Merger and any Asset Sale, will result in the Company pursuing such a transaction, or that any transactions, if pursued,
will be completed on terms favorable to Pulmatrix and its stockholders in the existing Pulmatrix entity or any possible entity that results
from a combination of entities. If the strategic review process is unsuccessful, and if the Merger is not consummated, the Company’s
board of directors may decide to pursue a dissolution and liquidation.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Accounting Standards
Basis
of Presentation
The
condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company included herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of
the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”)
have been condensed or omitted from this report, as is permitted by such rules and regulations. Accordingly, these condensed consolidated
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, filed with the SEC on March 21, 2025 (the “Annual Report”).
The
financial information as of June 30, 2025, and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, and 2024, is unaudited. In the opinion
of management, all adjustments (including those which are normal and recurring) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the interim
financial information have been included. The balance sheet data as of December 31, 2024, was derived from audited consolidated financial
statements. The results of the Company’s operations for any interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that
may be expected for any other interim period or for a full fiscal year.
The
Company’s future operations are highly dependent on the success of the Merger and there can be no assurances that the Merger will
be successfully consummated. If the Merger is not consummated, the Company believes that its cash and cash equivalents as of June 30,
2025, would be adequate to fund its operating expenses for at least twelve months from the date these condensed consolidated financial
statements are issued. However, in order to continue development of its programs, the Company would need to secure substantial additional
funding in the future, from one or more equity or debt financings, collaborations, or other sources. Additional funding may not be available
to the Company on acceptable terms, or at all. The Company’s board of directors may also decide to pursue a dissolution and liquidation
in lieu of continuing program development.
Should
the Company continue development of its product candidates, the Company would be subject to risks and uncertainties. The ongoing research
and development activities will be subject to extensive regulation by numerous governmental authorities in the United States. Prior to
marketing in the United States, any drug developed by the Company must undergo rigorous preclinical and clinical testing and an extensive
regulatory approval process implemented by the United States Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) under the Food, Drug and
Cosmetic Act. The Company has limited experience in conducting and managing the preclinical and clinical testing necessary to obtain
regulatory approval. There can be no assurance that the Company will not encounter problems in the clinical trials that will cause the
Company or the FDA to delay or suspend clinical trials.
The
Company’s success in developing its product candidates would depend in part on its ability to obtain patents and product license
rights, maintain trade secrets, and operate without infringing on the property rights of others, both in the United States and other
countries. There can be no assurance that patents issued to or licensed by the Company will not be challenged, invalidated, circumvented,
or that the rights granted thereunder will provide proprietary protection or competitive advantages to the Company.
Use
of Estimates
In
preparing the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, management is required to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date
of the condensed consolidated financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Due to inherent
uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual results may differ from these estimates. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates
its estimates and assumptions.
Concentrations
of Credit Risk
Cash
and cash equivalents is a financial instrument that potentially subjects the Company to concentrations of credit risk. For all periods
presented, substantially all of the Company’s cash was deposited in accounts at a single financial institution that management
believes is creditworthy, and the Company has not incurred any losses to date. The Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of
default by this financial institution for amounts in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limits.
For
the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company recognized no revenue. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, revenue
from one customer accounted for 61% and 89%, respectively, of revenue recognized in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial
statements.
Summary
of Significant Accounting Policies
The
Company’s significant accounting policies are described in Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Accounting
Standards, in the Annual Report. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company did not make any changes to its significant
accounting policies.
Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
From
time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) or other standard
setting bodies that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. The Company did not adopt any new accounting pronouncements
during the six months ended June 30, 2025, that had a material effect on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
In
December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income
Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”). The guidance in ASU 2023-09 improves the transparency of income tax disclosures by greater
disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. ASU 2023-09 is effective
for the Company for the annual period ending December 31, 2025. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption may
have on its annual income tax disclosures in its consolidated financial statements.
In
November 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”). The guidance in ASU 2024-03 requires disclosure
about the types of costs and expenses included in certain expense captions presented on the income statement. The new disclosure requirements
are effective for the Company’s annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning after December
15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that adoption of ASU 2024-03 may have on its
consolidated financial statements.
As
of June 30, 2025, there are no other new, or existing recently issued, accounting pronouncements that are of significance, or potential
significance, that impact the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Common Stock
In
May 2021, the Company entered into an At-The-Market Sales Agreement (the “Sales Agreement”) with H.C. Wainwright and Co.,
LLC (“HCW”) to act as the Company’s sales agent with respect to the issuance and sale of up to $20.0 million of the
Company’s shares of common stock, from time to time in an at-the-market public offering (the “ATM Offering”). Upon
filing of the Annual Report, the Company continued to be subject to General Instruction I.B.6 of Form S-3, pursuant to which in no event
will the Company sell its common stock in a registered primary offering using Form S-3 with a value exceeding more than one-third of
its public float in any 12 calendar month period so long as its public float remains below $75,000,000. Therefore, the amount that the
Company may be able to be raise using the ATM Offering will be significantly less than $20,000,000, until such time as the Company’s
public float held by non-affiliates exceeds $75,000,000.
Sales
of common stock under the Sales Agreement are made pursuant to an effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3, which was filed
with the SEC on May 17, 2024, and subsequently declared effective on May 30, 2024 (File No. 333-279491), and a related prospectus. HCW
acts as the Company’s sales agent on a commercially reasonable efforts basis, consistent with its normal trading and sales practices
and applicable state and federal laws, rules and regulations and the rules of The Nasdaq Capital Market. If expressly authorized by the
Company, HCW may also sell the Company’s common stock in privately negotiated transactions. There is no specific date on which
the ATM Offering will end, there are no minimum sale requirements and there are no arrangements to place any of the proceeds of the ATM
Offering in an escrow, trust or similar account. HCW is entitled to compensation at a fixed commission rate of 3.0% of the gross proceeds
from the sale of the Company’s common stock pursuant to the Sales Agreement.
During
the six months ended June 30, 2025, and 2024, no shares of the Company’s common stock were sold under the Sales Agreement.
6.
Warrants
As
of December 31, 2024, there were warrants outstanding to purchase 535,830 shares of common stock with a contingent cash redemption feature
requiring liability classification with an aggregate fair value of $67 thousand.
As
of June 30, 2025, the Company remeasured the fair value of the warrant liability at $0 and recorded a corresponding gain of $67 thousand
in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2025.
These
warrants, with a weighted-average exercise price of $36.54, expired subsequent to June 30, 2025, but before the date these condensed consolidated
financial statements were issued.
There
were no warrants issued or exercised during the six months ended June 30, 2025. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, warrants to
purchase up to 15,955 shares of common stock at a weighted-average exercise price of $1,509.99 per share expired. The following represents

patent or other intellectual property rights, and a variety of other matters. The Company is not aware of any pending legal proceedings
that would reasonably be expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

Income Taxes
The
Company had no income tax expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, and 2024 due to operating losses incurred since inception.
Management
of the Company evaluated the positive and negative evidence bearing upon the realizability of its deferred tax assets and determined
that it is more likely than not that the Company will not recognize the benefits of the deferred tax assets. As a result, a full valuation
allowance was recorded as of June 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024.
The
Company applies FASB Accounting Standards Codification 740, Income Taxes, for the financial statement recognition, measurement,
presentation, and disclosure of uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in income tax returns. Unrecognized tax benefits
represent tax positions for which reserves have been established. A full valuation allowance has been provided against the Company’s
deferred tax assets, so that the effect of the unrecognized tax benefits is to reduce the gross amount of the deferred tax asset and
the corresponding valuation allowance. The Company has no material uncertain tax positions as of June 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024.

Net Loss Per Share
Basic
net loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period.
Diluted loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number common shares outstanding during the period,
after taking into consideration any potentially dilutive effects from outstanding stock options or warrants.
Basic
and diluted net loss per share were the same for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, and 2024, as the effect of potentially
dilutive securities would have been anti-dilutive. The following potentially dilutive securities outstanding have been excluded from
the computation of diluted weighted-average shares outstanding, because such securities had an anti-dilutive impact:

Segment Reporting
The
Company operates in a single reportable segment. The accounting policies of the segment are the same as those applicable to the Company.
The measure of segment assets is reported on the balance sheet as total consolidated assets.
The
Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) is its chief executive officer, who reviews financial information
presented on a consolidated basis. The CODM uses net loss to assess financial performance of the Company and allocate resources, in addition
to operating forecasts and clinical results.
The
Company’s single segment revenue, significant segment expenses, other segment items and net loss are each presented separately
on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.
12.
Subsequent Events
The
Company has completed an evaluation of all subsequent events after the balance sheet date of June 30, 2025, through the date the condensed
consolidated financial statements were issued to ensure that the condensed consolidated financial statements include appropriate disclosure
of events both recognized in the condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2025, and events which occurred subsequently
but were not recognized in the condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company has concluded that no other subsequent events
have occurred that require disclosure, except as disclosed within the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Overview
Business
We
are a biopharmaceutical company that has focused on the development of novel inhaled therapeutic products intended to prevent and treat
migraine and respiratory diseases with important unmet medical needs using our patented iSPERSE™ technology. Our proprietary product
pipeline includes treatments for central nervous system (“CNS”) disorders such as acute migraine and serious lung diseases
such as Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (“COPD”) and allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (“ABPA”).
Our product candidates are based on our proprietary engineered dry powder delivery platform, iSPERSE™, which seeks to improve therapeutic
delivery to the lungs by optimizing pharmacokinetics and reducing systemic side effects to improve patient outcomes.
We
design and develop inhaled therapeutic products based on our proprietary dry powder delivery technology, iSPERSE™, which enables
delivery of small or large molecule drugs to the lungs by inhalation for local or systemic applications. The iSPERSE™ powders are
engineered to be small, dense particles with highly efficient dispersibility and delivery to airways. iSPERSE™ powders can be used
with an array of dry powder inhaler technologies and can be formulated with a broad range of drug substances including small molecules
and biologics. We believe the iSPERSE™ dry powder technology offers enhanced drug loading and delivery efficiency that outperforms
traditional lactose-blend inhaled dry powder therapies.
We
believe the advantages of using the iSPERSE™ technology include reduced total inhaled powder mass, enhanced dosing efficiency,
reduced cost of goods, and improved safety and tolerability profiles.
After
a comprehensive review of strategic alternatives, including identifying and reviewing potential candidates for a strategic transaction,
on November 13, 2024, we entered into the Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization, as amended by Amendment No. 1 (“Amendment
No. 1”) thereto on April 7, 2025 (as amended by Amendment No. 1, the “Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which, among
other matters, PCL Merger Sub, Inc., our direct wholly owned subsidiary, will merge with and into Cullgen Inc. (“Cullgen”),
with Cullgen surviving as our wholly owned subsidiary and the surviving corporation of the merger (the “Merger”). The Merger
Agreement was unanimously approved by our board of directors, which resolved to recommend approval of the Merger Agreement to our stockholders.
On June 16, 2025, we held a special meeting in lieu of the annual meeting
of Pulmatrix stockholders, at which special meeting our stockholders approved the Merger and related proposals. The Closing is subject
to other customary closing conditions, including Nasdaq’s approval of the listing of the shares of Pulmatrix common stock to be
issued in connection with the Merger and approval from the China Security Regulatory Commission (“CSRC”) pursuant to the Trial
Administrative Measures of Overseas Securities Offering and Listing by Domestic Enterprises (the “Trial Measures”), No. 1
to No. 6 Supporting Guidance Rules, the Notice on Administration Arrangements for the Filing of Overseas Listings by Domestic Enterprises
and the relevant CSRC Answers to Reporter Questions on the official website of the CSRC. These regulations established a filing-based
regime to regulate overseas offerings and listings by Chinese domestic companies. As of the date of this filing, Pulmatrix has not yet
received approval from the CSRC to complete the Merger. On August 1, 2025, Pulmatrix and Cullgen, as provided for in the Merger Agreement, mutually agreed to extend the term of the Merger Agreement by 60 days from an end date of August 13, 2025 to a new term end date of October 12, 2025.
If
the Merger is completed, the business of Cullgen will continue as the business of the combined company. We are currently seeking
opportunities to monetize iSPERSE™ and our existing clinical assets.
Our
future operations are highly dependent on the success of the Merger and there can be no assurances that the Merger will be successfully
consummated. There can be no assurance that the strategic review process or any transaction relating to a specific asset, including the
Merger and any asset sale, will result in us pursuing such a transaction, or that any transactions, if pursued, will be completed
on terms favorable to us and our stockholders in the existing Pulmatrix entity or any possible entity that results from a combination
of entities. If the strategic review process is unsuccessful, and if the Merger is not consummated, the Pulmatrix board of directors
may decide to pursue a dissolution and liquidation of the Company.
Our
goal has been to develop breakthrough therapeutic products that are safe, convenient, and more effective than the existing therapeutic
products for respiratory and other diseases where iSPERSE™ properties are advantageous.
Our
current pipeline of clinical assets is aligned to this goal and includes iSPERSE™-based therapeutic candidates, which target the
prevention and treatment of a range of diseases, including CNS disorders and pulmonary diseases. These therapeutic candidates include
PUR3100 for the treatment of acute migraine, PUR1800 for the treatment of acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
(“AECOPD”), and PUR1900 for the treatment of ABPA in patients with asthma and in patients with cystic fibrosis. Each program
is enabled by its unique iSPERSE™ formulation designed to achieve specific therapeutic objectives.
In
connection with the Merger, we are exploring opportunities to monetize these clinical assets and have paused the development of these
product candidates. Continued development of these candidates, if that were to occur, would be contingent on securing additional funding
and would require significant expenditures to advance. Thereafter, if development of such product candidates were to be continued and
successfully advanced (of which there can be no assurance), it would be necessary to seek and obtain marketing approval to commercialize
such product candidates, which could be expected to require the expenditure of significant additional resources and expenses related
to regulatory, product sales, medical affairs, marketing, manufacturing and distribution.
Contingent
on securing additional funding and continuing development of these candidates, we would expect to continue to incur substantial expenses
and operating losses for at least the next several years, as we would:

Pursue
further clinical studies for PUR3100, an orally inhaled dihydroergotamine (“DHE”) including a Phase 2 clinical study
for the treatment of acute migraine. We received Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) acceptance of our Investigational
New Drug Application (“IND”) and a “study may proceed” letter in September 2023, positioning PUR3100 as Phase
2-ready for potential financing or partnership discussions. |
|
|
We
developed PUR3100, an iSPERSE™ formulation of DHE in 2020. We completed good laboratory
practice (“GLP”) toxicology studies in 2021 and 2022. In 2022, we completed a
Phase 1 study designed as a double-blinded trial to assess the safety, tolerability, and
pharmacokinetics of three dose levels of single doses of inhaled PUR3100 with intravenous
(“IV”) placebo, as compared to IV DHE (DHE mesylate injection) with inhaled placebo.
|
|
|
|
|
|
On
January 4, 2023, we announced the Phase 1 topline results, indicating that PUR3100 was safe and tolerated with fewer gastrointestinal
side effects in all doses compared to IV DHE. PUR3100 showed a five-minute Tmax and Cmax within the targeted
therapeutic range for all three doses tested. The Phase 1 study data was presented at the American Headache Society 65th Annual Meeting
in June 2023. In May 2024, we announced a peer-reviewed publication of Phase 1 clinical results in the publication Headache: The
Journal of Head and Face Pain. |
|
|
|
|
|
In
September 2023, we announced the FDA’s acceptance of an IND application for PUR3100
and receipt of a “study may proceed” letter for a Phase 2 study. The IND includes
a Phase 2 clinical protocol where safety and preliminary efficacy of PUR3100 will be investigated
in patients with acute migraine.
Based
on the rapid systemic exposure in the therapeutic range and the improved side effect profile relative to IV dosing, we believe the
PUR3100 formulation of DHE may differentiate from approved DHE products or those in development. If effectiveness is demonstrated,
PUR3100 may offer the convenience of being self-administered with a pharmacokinetic profile that may potentially provide rapid onset
of action. |

Pursue
partnership or other alternatives to monetize or advance PUR1800, focusing on the development of an orally inhaled kinase inhibitor

|
|
We
completed preclinical safety studies for PUR1800, our iSPERSE™ formulation of RV1162, in 2018 and advanced
our formulation and process development efforts to support clinical testing in stable moderate-severe COPD patients. We completed
a Phase 1b safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics clinical study of PUR1800 for subjects with stable moderate-severe COPD and
received topline data from the Phase 1b clinical study in the first quarter of 2022. We analyzed data from the completed Phase 1b
clinical study of PUR1800 for AECOPD and presented study results at the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology (AAAAI)
conference in the first quarter of 2023. The results indicated PUR1800 was safe and well tolerated with no observed safety signals.
The topline data, along with the results from chronic toxicology studies, support the continued development of PUR1800 for the treatment
of AECOPD and other inflammatory respiratory diseases. |

Therapeutic
Candidates
PUR3100
We
are currently exploring opportunities to monetize PUR3100.
In
2020, we developed PUR3100, the iSPERSE™ formulation of DHE, for the treatment of acute migraine. Currently DHE is only
available as subcutaneous, intravenous infusion or intranasal delivery. If approved for commercialization, PUR3100 has the opportunity
to be the first orally inhaled DHE treatment for acute migraine and be an alternative to other acute therapies. Given the oral inhaled
route of delivery, PUR3100 is anticipated to provide relief from the rapid onset of migraine symptoms and provide a favorable tolerability
profile.
A
total of three 14-day GLP toxicology studies have been completed with PUR3100 to support single-dose clinical studies. We are planning
to conduct a chronic toxicology study to support long-term dosing. Based on discussions with the FDA, this would complete the non-clinical
requirements to support an NDA.
Our
interactions with the FDA have indicated that, in addition to Phase 2 and Phase 3 studies, long-term safety should be assessed in a minimum
of one hundred patients for six months of dosing and fifty patients for twelve months of dosing. The FDA also confirmed that it will
be necessary to perform a safety study administering PUR3100 to otherwise healthy patients with asthma before an NDA is submitted.
On
September 26, 2022, we announced the completion of patient dosing in a Phase 1 clinical study, performed in Australia. The study design
was a double-dummy, double-blinded trial to assess the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of three dose levels of single doses
of inhaled PUR3100 with IV placebo, as compared to IV DHE (DHE mesylate injection) with inhaled placebo. This study may also provide
preliminary comparative bioavailability data to support the use of the 505(b)(2) pathway for marketing authorization. Twenty-six healthy
subjects were enrolled and each of the four groups contained at least six subjects.
On
January 4, 2023, we announced topline results. We presented the Phase 1 study data at the American Headache Society 65th Annual Meeting
in June 2023. The study showed that PUR3100 achieved peak exposures in the targeted therapeutic range and time to maximum concentration
occurred at five minutes after dosing at all dosing levels. The PUR3100 dose groups also showed a lower incidence of nausea and no vomiting
compared to observations of nausea and vomiting in the IV administered DHE dose group.
Based
on the rapid systemic exposure in the therapeutic range and the improved side effect profile relative to IV dosing, we believe the PUR3100
formulation of DHE may differentiate from approved DHE products or those known to be in development. If effectiveness is demonstrated,
PUR3100 may offer the convenience of being self-administered with a pharmacokinetic profile that may potentially provide rapid onset
of action.
In
September 2023, we announced that the FDA accepted the PUR3100 IND and the receipt of a “study may proceed” letter for the
clinical study: “A Phase 2, Multicenter, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Single Event Study to Evaluate the Safety,
Tolerability, and Efficacy of PUR3100 (Dihydroergotamine Mesylate Inhalation Powder) in the Acute Treatment of Migraine”. We anticipate
that this Phase 2 clinical study will initiate once financing or partnership arrangements have been made.
On
May 15, 2024, we announced publication of, “Safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of a single orally inhaled dose of PUR3100,
a dry powder formulation of dihydroergotamine versus intravenous dihydroergotamine: A Phase 1 randomized, double-blind study in healthy
adults” in the peer-reviewed publication Headache: The Journal of Head and Face Pain.
We
believe that in this trial, PUR3100 demonstrated the potential for rapid pain relief and improved DHE tolerability versus IV DHE. With
a Tmax of 5 minutes and a Cmax in the therapeutic window for all doses tested, we believe that PUR3100 has the
potential to address an unmet need for acute migraine sufferers and we are pursuing different options to advance PUR3100 into a Phase
2 clinical trial to further investigate its promising profile in treating acute migraine.
The
completed Phase 1 study demonstrated optimal pharmacokinetics and improved tolerability of PUR3100 compared to IV DHE. The Phase 1 trial
was a randomized, double-dummy, double-blinded design to assesses the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of three dose groups
treated with inhaled PUR3100 with intravenous (IV) placebo, compared to a single dose of IV DHE (DHE mesylate injection) with inhaled
placebo in healthy volunteers. All doses of PUR3100 were generally well tolerated with a lower incidence of nausea (21% vs. 86%), vomiting
(0% vs. 29%), and headache (16% vs. 57%) compared to IV DHE. The PK profile of PUR3100 versus IV DHE was characterized by a similar mean
time to Cmax (5 vs. 5.5 min), with reduced AUC0–2h (1120–4320 vs. 6340), and a lower Cmax (3620–14,400
vs. 45,000). All doses of PUR3100 were associated with mean Cmax above the minimum level required to achieve efficacy (1000
pg/mL).
PUR1800
We
are currently exploring opportunities to monetize PUR1800.
PUR1800
is a Narrow Spectrum Kinase Inhibitor, engineered with our iSPERSE™ technology, being developed for the treatment of
acute exacerbations in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD). PUR1800 targets p38 MAP kinases (p38MAPK), Src kinases, and Syk
kinases. These kinases play a critical role in chronic inflammation and airway remodeling.
We
completed a Phase 1b safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of PUR1800 for patients with stable moderate-severe COPD. Topline data
was delivered in the first quarter of 2022 and presented at the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology conference in the
first quarter of 2023.
The
clinical study, performed at the Medicines Evaluation Unit in Manchester, UK, was a randomized, three-way crossover double-blind study
with 14 days of daily dosing, which included placebo and one of two doses of PUR1800, and included a 28-day follow-up period after each
treatment period. A total of 18 adults with stable COPD were enrolled. Safety and tolerability, as well as systemic pharmacokinetics
(“PK”) were evaluated.
PUR1800
was well tolerated and there were no observed safety signals. The PK data indicate that PUR1800 results in low and consistent systemic
exposure when administered via oral inhalation. The topline data, along with the results from chronic toxicology studies, support the
continued development of PUR1800 for the treatment of AECOPD and other inflammatory respiratory diseases. These data will inform the
design of a potential Phase 2 study in the treatment of AECOPD.
Toxicology
studies in rats and dogs, with durations of six and nine months respectively, are complete. The data from both studies demonstrated that
PUR1800 is safe and well tolerated with chronic dosing, with little to no progression of findings from 28-day studies. We believe that
this indicates potential for chronic dosing of PUR1800, enabling us to explore PUR1800 therapy for chronic respiratory diseases such
as steroid resistant asthma, COPD, or idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. While the program is currently in development for treatment of acute
exacerbation of COPD, these positive toxicology study results could expand potential indications and value of the program.
PUR1900
We
are currently exploring opportunities to monetize PUR1900 within the United States.
On
April 15, 2019, we entered into a Development and Commercialization Agreement (the “Cipla Agreement”) with Cipla for the
co-development and commercialization, on a worldwide, except for the Cipla Territory defined below, exclusive basis, of PUR1900, our
inhaled iSPERSE™ drug delivery system (the “Product”) enabled formulation of the antifungal drug
itraconazole, which is only available as an oral drug, for the treatment of all pulmonary indications, including ABPA in patients with
asthma. We entered into an amendment to the Cipla Agreement on November 8, 2021 (the “Second Amendment”) and a subsequent
amendment on January 6, 2024 (the “Third Amendment”). All references to the Cipla Agreement herein refer to the Cipla Agreement,
as amended. The Cipla Agreement will remain in effect in perpetuity, unless otherwise earlier terminated in accordance with its terms.
Pursuant
to the Third Amendment, all development and commercialization activities with respect to the Product in all markets other than the United
States (the “Cipla Territory”) will be conducted exclusively by Cipla at Cipla’s sole cost and expense, and Cipla shall
be entitled to all profits from the sale of the Product in the Cipla Territory, except that we will receive 2% royalties on any potential
future net sales by Cipla outside the United States.
Also
pursuant to the Third Amendment, we and Cipla stopped patient enrollment for the ongoing Phase 2b clinical study. We agreed that during
the period commencing on January 6, 2024 and ending July 30, 2024 (the “Wind Down Period”), we would complete all Phase 2b
activities, assign or license all patents to Cipla and their registration with the appropriate authorities in the Cipla Territory, complete
a physical and demonstrable technology transfer and secure all data from the Phase 2b study for inclusion in the safety database for
the Cipla Territory.
We
completed all Phase 2b wind down activities in the third quarter of 2024. As such, we no longer bear further financial responsibility
for the commercialization and development with respect to the Product in the Cipla Territory, with such commercialization and development
expenses of the Product in the Cipla Territory to be borne at Cipla’s sole cost and expense after January 6, 2024.
Our
partner Cipla has continued clinical development outside the United States and India’s Central Drug Standard Control Organization
has accepted Cipla’s Phase 2 clinical trial results for inhaled itraconazole dry powder formulation and approved the company’s
proposal to proceed with Phase 3 trials. Should Cipla successfully market PUR1900 outside the United States, Pulmatrix will receive 2%
royalties on any potential future net sales by Cipla outside the United States. Within the United States, we and Cipla will seek to monetize
PUR1900 for indications where an orally inhaled antifungal may provide a therapeutic benefit or fulfill an unmet medical need.
Financial
Overview
Revenues
To
date, we have not generated any product sales. No revenues were recognized for the six months ended June 30, 2025, and the revenues for
the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, were primarily generated from the Cipla Agreement as related to our PUR1900 program, for
which wind down activities have been completed.

consulting
and professional fees associated with research and development activities. |
We
expense research and development costs to operations as incurred. We recognize costs for certain development activities, such as clinical
trials, based on an evaluation of the progress to completion of specific tasks using data such as patient enrollment, clinical site activations
or information provided to us by our vendors.
Research
and development activities have been central to our business model. We have utilized a combination of internal and external efforts to
advance product development from early-stage work to clinical trial manufacturing and clinical trial support. External efforts have included
work with consultants and substantial work at CROs and CMOs. We have historically supported an internal research and development team
and facility for our pipeline and other potential development programs, however following the closing of the transaction with MannKind
Corporation (“MannKind” and such transactions, the “MannKind Transaction”) in the third quarter of 2024, in which
the majority of our research and development employees were terminated and our facility lease was assigned to MannKind, we expect to
utilize external resources for further development.
To
continue development of existing programs or opportunities identified for iSPERSE™ in any new indications, we will need to secure
additional funding and anticipate additional development costs would be incurred. Because of the numerous risks and uncertainties associated
with product development, however, we cannot determine with certainty the duration and completion costs of these or other current or
future preclinical studies and clinical trials. The duration, costs and timing of our future clinical trials and development of our product
candidates will depend on a variety of factors, including the selected development path and uncertainties associated with clinical and
preclinical studies, clinical trial enrollment rates and changing government regulation. In addition, the probability of success for
each product candidate will depend on numerous factors, including competition, manufacturing capability and commercial viability.
General
and Administrative Expenses
General
and administrative expenses consist principally of salaries, benefits and related costs such as stock-based compensation for personnel
and consultants in executive, finance, business development, corporate communications and human resource functions, facility costs not
otherwise included in research and development expenses, patent filing fees and legal fees. Other general and administrative expenses
include travel expenses, expenses related to being a publicly traded company, professional fees for consulting, auditing and tax services,
and expenses related to the Company’s exploration of strategic alternatives, including the Merger.
Critical
Accounting Estimates
This
management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our condensed consolidated
financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial
statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses
and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in our condensed consolidated financial statements. We base our estimates on
historical experience, known trends and events, and other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, and we
evaluate these estimates on an ongoing basis. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Revenues
— No revenues were recognized for the three months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to $1.6 million for the three months
ended June 30, 2024, a decrease of $1.6 million. The decrease is primarily related to completion of the wind down of the PUR1900 Phase
2b clinical trial during the year ended December 31, 2024.
Research
and development expenses — Research and development expenses were less than $0.1 million for the three months ended June
30, 2025, as compared to $2.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, a decrease of approximately $2.8 million. The decrease
was primarily due to $2.2 million less employment and other operating cost following the MannKind Transaction and $0.6 million less cost
incurred on the PUR1900 program, for which the winding down of the Phase 2b clinical trial was completed during the year ended December
31, 2024.
General
and administrative expenses — General and administrative expenses were $1.5 million for the three months ended June 30,
2025, as compared to $2.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, a decrease of approximately $0.5 million. The decrease was
primarily due to $0.9 million of decreased employment and other operating costs, partially offset by $0.4 million of costs related to
the Merger.

Revenues
— No revenues were recognized for the six months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to $7.4 million for the six months ended
June 30, 2024, a decrease of $7.4 million. The decrease is primarily related to completion of the wind down of the PUR1900 Phase 2b clinical
trial during the year ended December 31, 2024.
Research
and development expenses — Research and development expenses were less than $0.1 million for the six months ended June
30, 2025, as compared to $6.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, a decrease of approximately $6.3 million. The decrease
was primarily due to $4.5 million less employment and other operating cost following the MannKind Transaction, $1.7 million less cost
incurred on the PUR1900 program, for which the winding down of the Phase 2b clinical trial was completed during the year ended December
31, 2024, and $0.1 million less cost incurred on the PUR3100 and PUR1800 programs.
General
and administrative expenses — General and administrative expenses were $3.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025,
as compared to $3.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, a decrease of approximately $0.3 million. The decrease was primarily
due to $1.4 million of decreased employment and other operating costs, partially offset by $1.1 million of costs related to the Merger.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
Through
June 30, 2025, we incurred an accumulated deficit of $300.5 million, primarily as a result of expenses incurred through a combination
of research and development activities related to our various product candidates and general and administrative expenses supporting those
activities. We have financed our operations since inception primarily through the sale of preferred and common stock, the issuance of
convertible promissory notes, term loans, and collaboration and license agreements. Our total cash and cash equivalents balance as of
June 30, 2025, was $5.8 million.
We
anticipate that we will continue to incur significant expenses in connection with pursuing strategic alternatives, including as related
to and in connection with the Merger. Contingent on securing additional funding and continuing development of our program candidates,
we anticipate that we would continue to incur losses over the next several years due to development costs associated with our iSPERSE™
pipeline programs. We expect that we would need additional capital to fund our operations as we continue to incur research and development
and general and administrative expenses. We may raise such capital through a combination of equity offerings, debt financings, other
third-party funding and other collaborations and strategic alliances.
We
expect that our existing cash and cash equivalents as of June
30, 2025, will enable us to fund our corporate operating expenses for at least the next 12 months
following the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We have based our projections of operating capital requirements on assumptions
that may prove to be incorrect, and we may use all of our available capital resources sooner than we expect. Because of the numerous
risks and uncertainties associated with the Merger, research, development, achievement of contingent milestones and commercialization
of pharmaceutical products, we are unable to estimate the exact amount of our operating capital requirements.
We
have no material off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial
condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources
that is material to investors.

Net
cash used in operating activities
Net
cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2025, was $3.7 million, which was primarily the result of $3.4 million
of net loss, $0.3 million of cash outflows associated with changes in operating assets and liabilities and less than $0.1 million in
net non-cash adjustments.
Net
cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2024, was $6.4 million, which was primarily the result of $5.0 million
of net loss and $4.8 million in cash outflows associated with changes in operating assets and liabilities, partially offset by $3.4 million
of net non-cash adjustments.
Net
cash used in investing activities
No
cash was used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2025. Net cash used in investing activities for the six months
ended June 30, 2024, was $0.4 million, which was due to purchases of property and equipment.
Financings
In
May 2021, we entered into the At The Market Offering Agreement (the “Sales Agreement”) with H.C. Wainwright (“HCW”)
to act as our sales agent with respect to the issuance and sale of up to $20,000,000 of our shares of common stock, from time to time
in an “at-the-market” offering (the “ATM Offering”). Upon filing of the Annual Report, we continued to be subject
to General Instruction I.B.6 of Form S-3, pursuant to which in no event will we sell our common stock in a registered primary offering
using Form S-3 with a value exceeding more than one-third of our public float in any 12 calendar month period so long as our public float
remains below $75,000,000. Therefore, the amount we may be able to raise using the ATM Offering will be significantly less than $20,000,000,
until such time as our public float held by non-affiliates exceeds $75,000,000.
Sales
of common stock under the Sales Agreement are made pursuant to an effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3, which was filed
with the SEC on May 17, 2024, and subsequently declared effective on May 30, 2024 (File No. 333-279491), and a related prospectus. HCW
acts as our sales agent on a commercially reasonable efforts basis, consistent with its normal trading and sales practices and applicable
state and federal laws, rules and regulations and the rules of Nasdaq. If expressly authorized by us, HCW may also sell our common stock
in privately negotiated transactions. There is no specific date on which the ATM Offering will end, there are no minimum sale requirements
and there are no arrangements to place any of the proceeds of the ATM Offering in an escrow, trust or similar account. HCW is entitled
to compensation at a fixed commission rate of 3.0% of the gross proceeds from the sale of our common stock pursuant to the Sales Agreement.
During
the six months ended June 30, 2025, and 2024, no shares of our common stock were sold under the Sales Agreement.
Known
Trends, Events and Uncertainties
The
Company is subject to risks and uncertainties including, should it resume development of its product candidates, risks and uncertainties
common to companies in the biopharmaceutical industry, including but not limited to, risks associated with completing preclinical studies
and clinical trials, receiving regulatory approvals for product candidates, development by competitors of new biopharmaceutical products,
dependence on key personnel, protection of proprietary technology, compliance with government regulations and the ability to secure additional
capital to fund operations. Should the Company resume development of its product candidates, significant additional research and development
efforts, including preclinical and clinical testing and regulatory approval, prior to commercialization, would be required. These efforts
would require significant amounts of additional capital, adequate personnel and infrastructure and extensive compliance-reporting capabilities.
Even if the Company’s product development efforts are successful, should the Company resume development of its product candidates,
it is uncertain when, if ever, the Company would realize revenue from product sales. Additionally, recent changes to U.S. policy implemented
by the U.S. Congress, the Trump administration or any new administration have impacted and may in the future impact, among other things,
the U.S. and global economy, tariffs, international trade relations, unemployment, immigration, healthcare, taxation, the U.S. regulatory
environment, inflation and other areas. Although we cannot predict the impact, if any, of these changes to our business, they could adversely
affect our business.

4. Controls and Procedures.
Disclosure
Controls and Procedures
Our
Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, after evaluating the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures
(as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”))
as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, have concluded that, based on such evaluation, our disclosure
controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit
under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and
forms, and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer
as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
In
designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter
how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and our management
necessarily is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
Changes
in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
There
were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2025 that have materially
affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART
II—OTHER INFORMATION
Item
1. Legal Proceedings.
From
time to time, we may be involved in litigation that arises through the normal course of business. As of the date of this filing, we are
not aware of any material legal proceedings to which we or any of our subsidiaries is a party or to which any of our property is subject,
nor are we aware of any such threatened or pending litigation or any such proceedings known to be contemplated by governmental authorities.
We
are not aware of any material proceedings in which any of our directors, officers, or affiliates or any registered or beneficial stockholder
of more than 5% of our common stock, or any associate of any of the foregoing, is a party adverse to or has a material interest adverse
to, us or any of our subsidiaries.
Item
1A. Risk Factors.
Investing
in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described in Part I, Item
1A under the heading “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, in addition to
the other information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q before making an investment decision regarding our common stock.
If any of these risks actually occur, our business, financial condition, or operating results would likely suffer, possibly materially,
the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you could lose part or all of your investment.
