Cingulate
Inc. (the “Company”) plans to file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 (the “Form
10-Q”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) as soon as practicable and within the five calendar day
period provided by Rule 12b-25 for delayed filings. The Company requires additional time to complete the review of its financial statements
for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, due to recent changes in the Company’s management which are described in the Company’s
Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on August 15, 2025, which have resulted in additional time being required to complete
the preparation and review of the Company’s financial statements and related disclosures, and the Company cannot, without unreasonable
effort or expense, file the Form 10-Q on the original due date. The Company anticipates that it will be able to file the Form 10-Q within
the extension period provided under Rule 12b-25.
