Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Apimeds Pharmaceuticals US, Inc. reports a delay in filing its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. The company previously filed a Form 12b-25 but now expects it will not meet the additional fifteen-day extension period because its financial statements and audit are still being completed.

Apimeds expects to receive a notice from NYSE American that it is not in compliance with continued listing requirements due to the late 10-K. The company anticipates being given time to submit a plan to regain compliance and is working to finalize the 10-K, targeting a filing date by April 30, 2026, though it cautions there is no assurance this deadline will be met.

Positive

  • None.

Negative

  • Delayed Form 10-K beyond Form 12b-25 extension, due to ongoing financial statement preparation and audit completion for the year ended December 31, 2025.
  • Expected NYSE American noncompliance notice related to failure to timely file the Form 10-K, introducing listing-status risk until compliance is regained.

Insights

Late 10-K and likely NYSE noncompliance create near-term listing risk.

Apimeds Pharmaceuticals US, Inc. indicates it cannot file its 2025 Form 10-K within the normal or extended Form 12b-25 deadline because its financial statements and the external audit are still being finalized.

This delay means the company expects a notice from NYSE American that it is out of compliance with continued listing requirements tied to timely SEC reports. Such notices typically allow time to submit a remediation plan, which Apimeds notes it expects to do.

The company is working to complete the Form 10-K and aims to file it by April 30, 2026, while explicitly stating there is no assurance it will meet that date. Subsequent disclosures will clarify whether the filing occurs by that target and how NYSE American responds to any compliance plan.

Annual Report on Form 10-K regulatory
"with respect to its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025"
An annual report on Form 10‑K is a required, comprehensive filing that publicly traded companies give to regulators and investors summarizing their business, results of operations, detailed financial statements reviewed by independent auditors, material risks, legal issues and management’s discussion of performance. Investors use it like a company’s year‑end report card and medical checkup: it reveals how the business made money, where it is vulnerable, and the facts needed to compare value, judge risk and make informed investment decisions.
independent registered public accounting firm financial
"additional time for its independent registered public accounting firm to complete its audit"
An independent registered public accounting firm is an outside accounting company officially registered with the government regulator to examine and report on a public company's financial records and controls. Investors treat its reports like an impartial inspector’s certificate — they add credibility to financial statements, help spot errors or misleading claims, and reduce the risk that shareholders are relying on unchecked or biased numbers.
continued listing requirements regulatory
"not in compliance with the applicable continued listing requirements due to its failure to timely file the Form 10-K"
Rules a stock exchange sets that a publicly traded company must keep meeting to stay listed and tradable on that exchange, such as minimum share price, market value, timely financial reports, and basic governance practices. Like a club’s membership rules, they matter because falling short can lead to warnings, penalties or removal from the exchange, which can cut liquidity, hurt share value and increase the risk for investors.
NYSE American market
"expects to receive a notice from NYSE American indicating that the Company is not in compliance"
NYSE American is a stock exchange where companies can list their shares to be bought and sold by investors. It functions like a marketplace, helping businesses raise money and providing investors with opportunities to buy ownership in these companies. Its role is important because it facilitates the trading of smaller or emerging companies, offering investors access to a broader range of investment options.

Item 8.01. Other Events.

 

On March 31, 2026, Apimeds Pharmaceuticals US, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) filed a Notification of Late Filing on Form 12b-25 (the “Form 12b-25”), with respect to its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 (the “Form 10-K”). In the Form 12b-25, the Company disclosed that it would be unable to file the Form 10-K within the prescribed time period without unreasonable effort or expense due to the ongoing preparation of its financial statements and the need for additional time for its independent registered public accounting firm to complete its audit.

 

The Company currently expects that it will not be able to file the Form 10-K within the fifteen calendar day extension period provided under Rule 12b-25.

 

The delay is primarily attributable to (i) the continued preparation and finalization of the Company’s financial statements for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, and (ii) the additional time required for the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm to complete its audit procedures.

 

As a result of the foregoing, the Company expects to receive a notice from NYSE American indicating that the Company is not in compliance with the applicable continued listing requirements due to its failure to timely file the Form 10-K. The Company expects that such notice will provide a period within which the Company may submit a plan to regain compliance and/or otherwise regain compliance with the applicable listing standards.

 

The Company is working diligently to complete the Form 10-K and expects to file the Form 10-K by April 30, 2026. While the Company is making substantial progress toward completion, there can be no assurance that the Form 10-K will be filed by such date.
