Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Citius Pharmaceuticals reported its first meaningful LYMPHIR sales but remains deeply unprofitable and capital constrained. Net revenue reached $5.6M for the six months ended March 31, 2026, generating gross profit of $4.5M. However, total operating expenses of $45.7M, including large general and administrative costs and amortization of in-process R&D, led to a net loss of $37.5M and a loss per share of $1.34.

Cash and cash equivalents were $4.6M with negative working capital of about $23.3M, and operating activities used $14.3M of cash over six months. The company recognized a $3.8M gain from selling New Jersey net operating losses but also recorded about $20.1M of termination-related charges and a $19.7M contract cancellation fee after its LYMPHIR bulk drug substance manufacturer ended the supply agreement and exited microbial production.

Management’s going concern note states there is substantial doubt about Citius’s ability to continue beyond November 2026 without new funding. Subsequent events include a $5.0M registered direct offering at $0.985 per share, approximately $11.5M of Citius Oncology warrant-inducement proceeds, and a loan facility of up to $25.0M for Citius Oncology bearing at least 12.75% interest. Both Citius Pharma and Citius Oncology also received Nasdaq notices for minimum bid-price deficiencies.

Positive

  • None.

Negative

  • Going concern uncertainty: A net loss of $37.5M, operating cash outflow of $14.3M, limited cash of $4.6M and negative working capital of about $23.3M led management to state substantial doubt about continuing operations beyond November 2026 without additional financing.
  • Manufacturing disruption and large charges: Citius Oncology’s LYMPHIR bulk drug substance supplier terminated its agreement and exited microbial production, triggering roughly $20.1M in termination-related costs and a further $19.7M contract cancellation fee recorded in general and administrative expense.
  • Nasdaq listing risk: Both Citius Pharmaceuticals and Citius Oncology received Nasdaq notices for falling below the $1.00 minimum bid price requirement, starting 180-day grace periods to regain compliance and increasing the risk to their current exchange listings.

Insights

LYMPHIR revenue begins but heavy losses, CMO exit and funding risk dominate.

Citius generated $5.6M in LYMPHIR net revenue in its first commercial half-year, but operating expenses of $45.7M produced a net loss of $37.5M. Cash was only $4.6M with negative working capital of roughly $23.3M.

Liquidity is strained: operating cash outflow was $14.3M in six months, and management explicitly highlights substantial doubt about continuing as a going concern beyond November 2026 without new capital. Subsequent financings and a loan facility totaling up to $30M-plus provide runway but add costs and leverage.

Operationally, the termination of the bulk drug substance manufacturing agreement, related charges of about $20.1M plus a $19.7M cancellation fee, and the need to qualify a new CMO introduce execution risk for LYMPHIR supply. Bid-price noncompliance notices for both CTXR and CTOR add listing risk, and future disclosures will clarify progress on funding, supply-chain transition and revenue growth.

Net revenue (six months) $5,611,409 Six months ended March 31, 2026; initial LYMPHIR sales
Net loss (six months) $37,503,635 Six months ended March 31, 2026 consolidated loss
Cash and cash equivalents $4,590,174 Balance as of March 31, 2026
Operating cash outflow $14,308,843 Net cash used in operating activities, six months ended March 31, 2026
Gain on sale of NJ NOLs $3,833,277 Recognized during six months ended March 31, 2026
Termination-related manufacturing charges $20,100,000 Approximate termination fees after CMO ended bulk drug substance agreement
Additional contract cancellation fee $19,733,307 Recorded in March 2026 related to CMO manufacturing decision
Registered direct offering $5,000,000 Gross proceeds from April 24, 2026 CTXR equity sale at $0.985 per share
going concern financial
"there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the accompanying consolidated financial statements are issued"
A going concern is a business that is expected to continue its operations and meet its obligations for the foreseeable future, rather than shutting down or selling off assets. This assumption matters to investors because it indicates stability and ongoing profitability, making the business a more reliable investment. Think of it as believing a restaurant will stay open and serve customers, rather than closing down suddenly.
in-process research and development financial
"In-process research and development for LYMPHIR is being amortized as follows on a straight-line basis over the remaining FDA product exclusivity period"
Unfinished research and development work—such as drug candidates, prototypes, or process designs—that a company is actively developing but has not yet completed or commercialized. Investors care because it represents potential future products or technologies (like a half-built prototype) whose value is uncertain; it affects how acquisitions are priced, how future profits and costs are forecast, and can be written down if the project fails.
gross-to-net adjustments financial
"Net revenue from LYMPHIR sales, net of variable consideration and consideration payable... consisting of estimates related to allowances for sales returns, government chargebacks, patient coupon programs, and specialty distributor fees"
non-controlling interest financial
"The portion of equity that is not attributable to the Company is presented as a non-controlling interest within stockholders’ equity"
Non-controlling interest represents the portion of ownership in a company held by investors who do not have a controlling stake, meaning they do not have enough voting power to make major decisions. It is similar to owning a minority share of a business partner’s company—while they benefit from profits, they cannot control how the company is run. This matters to investors because it shows how much of the company's value is owned by outside shareholders and affects overall financial reporting.
Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) regulatory
"we were not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) because the minimum bid price of our common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market closed below $1.00 per share"
bulk drug substance technical
"an agreement with a contract manufacturing organization for the manufacture and supply of bulk drug substance with the agreement continuing through calendar year 2026"

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements.” Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements that express our intentions, beliefs, expectations, strategies, predictions or any other statements relating to our future activities or other future events or conditions. These statements are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about our business based, in part, on assumptions made by management. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may, and are likely to, differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in the forward-looking statements due to numerous factors discussed from time to time in this Report and in other documents which we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). In addition, such statements could be affected by risks and uncertainties related to:

 

  our independent registered public accounting firm’s report includes an explanatory paragraph stating that there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern;  
     
  our need for substantial additional funds and our ability to raise those funds;
     
  our ongoing evaluation of strategic alternatives;
     
  our ability to regain compliance with the continued listing requirements of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”);
     
  the ability of Citius Oncology to commercialize LYMPHIR, including covering the costs of licensing payments, product manufacturing and other third-party goods and services;
     
  our ability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the August 2024 reverse merger whereby Citius Oncology became a standalone publicly-traded company and our majority-owned subsidiary (the “Merger”), which may not be realized fully, if at all, or may take longer to realize than expected;
     
  our ability to obtain regulatory approval for and successfully commercialize Mino-Lok;
     
  the cost, timing, and results of our pre-clinical and clinical trials for our other product candidates;
     
  our ability to apply for, obtain and maintain required regulatory approvals for our other product candidates;
     
  the estimated markets for LYMPHIR, Mino-Lok or any of our future product candidates and the acceptance thereof by any market;
     
  our ability to obtain, perform under and maintain financing and strategic agreements and relationships;
     
  the commercial feasibility and success of our technology and our product candidates;
     
  our ability to recruit and retain qualified management and technical personnel to carry out our operations; and
     
  the other factors discussed in the “Risk Factors” section of our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2025, filed with the SEC on December 23, 2025, as amended on January 28, 2026.

 

Any forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made, and except as may be required under applicable securities laws, we do not undertake any obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the filing date of this Report.

CITIUS PHARMACEUTICALS, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2026 AND 2025

(Unaudited)

 

1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS, BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Business

 

Citius Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Citius Pharma,” and together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”, “we” or “us”) is a late-stage biopharmaceutical company dedicated to the development and commercialization of first-in-class critical care products with a focus on oncology, anti-infectives in adjunct cancer care, unique prescription products and stem cell therapies.

 

On March 30, 2016, Citius Pharma acquired Leonard-Meron Biosciences, Inc. (“LMB”) as a wholly-owned subsidiary. We acquired all the outstanding stock of LMB by issuing shares of our common stock. The net assets acquired included identifiable intangible assets of $19,400,000 related to in-process research and development. We recorded goodwill of $9,346,796 for the excess of the purchase price over the net assets acquired.

 

On September 11, 2020, we formed NoveCite, Inc. (“NoveCite”), a Delaware corporation, of which we own 75% of the issued and outstanding capital stock (see Note 7).

 

On August 23, 2021, we formed Citius Oncology, Inc. (“Citius Oncology”), as a wholly-owned subsidiary in conjunction with the acquisition of LYMPHIR, which began operations in April 2022. On August 12, 2024, Citius Pharma and Citius Oncology entered into a merger agreement with TenX Keane Acquisition, and its wholly owned subsidiary, TenX Merger Sub Inc (“Merger Sub”), whereby Merger Sub merged with and into Citius Oncology. After the merger and recapitalization (the “Merger”), the newly combined publicly traded company was owned 92.3% by Citius Pharma, and is named “Citius Oncology, Inc.” (Nasdaq: CTOR). As of March 31, 2026, Citius Pharma owned approximately 71% of Citius Oncology.

 

Since our inception, we have devoted substantially all our efforts to business planning, research and development, recruiting management and technical staff, and raising capital. We are subject to a number of risks common to companies in the pharmaceutical industry including, but not limited to, the Company’s ability to obtain additional financing, risks related to the development by the Company or its competitors of research and development stage products, regulatory approval and market acceptance of its products, competition from larger companies, dependence on key personnel, dependence on key suppliers and strategic partners and the Company’s compliance with governmental and other regulations.

 

Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Preparation - The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the operations of Citius Pharmaceuticals, Inc., its wholly-owned subsidiary LMB and its majority-owned subsidiaries NoveCite and Citius Oncology. On August 12, 2024, Citius Oncology, previously a wholly-owned subsidiary, became a majority-owned subsidiary. As of March 31, 2026, Citius Oncology was approximately a 71% majority-owned subsidiary.

 

The operations of NoveCite and Citius Oncology are included in the consolidated results. The portion of equity that is not attributable to the Company is presented as a non-controlling interest within stockholders’ equity. Unless excluded by shareholder agreements, the portion of net loss attributable to non-controlling interests is included in the statement of operations. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

5

 

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared on the same basis as the annual consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to fairly state the condensed consolidated financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2026, and the results of its operations and cash flows for the three and six months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025. The operating results for the three and six months ended March 31, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending September 30, 2026. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2025 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on December 23, 2025, as amended on January 28, 2026.

 

Use of Estimates - The process of preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates having relatively higher significance include the accounting for revenue recognition, in-process research and development, stock-based compensation, net realizable value of inventory and income taxes. Actual results could differ from those estimates and changes in estimates may occur.

 

Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Common Share - Basic and diluted net loss per common share applicable to common stockholders is computed by dividing net loss applicable to common stockholders in each period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during such period. For the periods presented, common stock equivalents, consisting of stock options and warrants, were not included in the calculation of the diluted loss per share because they were anti-dilutive, with pre-funded warrants being included in the loss per share.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

 

Other than as disclosed in our Form 10-K, we are not aware of any other recently issued accounting standards not yet adopted that may have a material impact on our financial statements.

 

2. GOING CONCERN UNCERTAINTY AND MANAGEMENT’S PLAN

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. We incurred a net loss of $37,503,635 for the six months ended March 31, 2026. The Company experienced negative cash flows from operations of $14,308,843 for the six months ended March 31, 2026. At March 31, 2026, the Company had $4,590,174 in cash and a negative working capital of approximately $23.3 million.

 

On April 24, 2026, Citius Pharma closed a registered direct offering for the sale of 5,076,143 shares of common stock (or pre-funded warrants in lieu thereof) at a purchase price of $0.985 per share (or pre-funded warrant in lieu thereof). Gross proceeds were approximately $5.0 million, before deducting the placement agent fees and expenses (See Note 13).

 

On May 5, 2026, Citius Oncology received gross proceeds of approximately $11.5 million from the inducement exercise of certain warrants (See Note 13).

 

In addition, Citius Oncology entered into a loan agreement for up to $25.0 million, with $10.0 million funded on May 6, 2026, up to $7.0 million available on the later of (A) the date on which certain net revenue and liquidity milestones are achieved and (B) October 1, 2026, and continuing through December 31, 2026, and up to $8.0 million available beginning on the later of (A) the date on which certain additional net revenue milestones are achieved and (B) January 1, 2027, and continuing through March 31, 2027. The loans bear interest at the greater of the prime rate plus 6% or 12.75%. The loans are secured by an interest in all of Citius Oncology’s assets, including intellectual property, subject to agreed exceptions. The maturity date of the loans is November 1, 2029 (See Note 13).

 

6

 

 

The Company estimates that its and Citius Oncology’s collective available cash resources will be sufficient to fund our operations through November 2026. We will need to raise additional capital in the future to support our operations beyond November 2026, which raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the accompanying consolidated financial statements are issued.

 

The Company is currently engaged in capital raising initiatives, as well as separate capital raising initiatives through its approximately 71% owned subsidiary Citius Oncology, in an effort to extend its cash runway. Citius Oncology also has retained Jefferies LLC as its exclusive financial advisor in evaluating strategic alternatives aimed at maximizing shareholder value.

 

The Company has generated limited operating revenue, which commenced in December 2025, and has principally raised capital through the issuance of debt and equity instruments to finance its operations. However, the Company’s continued operations beyond November 2026, including its development plans for Mino-Lok, Halo-Lido and NoveCite, will depend on its ability to obtain regulatory approval for Mino-Lok and generate substantial revenue from the sale of LYMPHIR and on its ability to raise additional capital through various potential sources, such as equity and/or debt financings, strategic relationships, or out-licensing of its product candidates. However, the Company can provide no assurances on regulatory approval, commercialization, or future sales of LYMPHIR or that financing or strategic relationships will be available on acceptable terms, or at all. If the Company is unable to raise sufficient capital, find strategic partners or generate substantial revenue from the sale of LYMPHIR, there would be a material adverse effect on its business. Further, the Company expects in the future to incur additional expenses as it continues to develop its product candidates, including seeking regulatory approval, and protecting its intellectual property. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of the above uncertainty.

 

3. REVENUE RECOGNITION AND ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

 

Revenue Recognition

 

We recognize revenue in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. In determining the appropriate amount and timing of revenue to be recognized under this guidance, we perform the following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with our customer; (ii) identify the promised goods or services in the agreement and determine whether they are performance obligations, including whether they are distinct in the context of the agreement; (iii) measure the transaction price, including the constraint on variable consideration; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations based on stand-alone selling prices; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) we satisfy each performance obligation. Revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to our customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.

 

We distribute LYMPHIR in the U.S. through third party specialty distributors who are our customers. The third-party specialty distributors subsequently resell our product to health care providers, hospitals and infusion centers. Separately, we have or may enter into payment arrangements with various third-party’s including government healthcare programs who provide coverage and or reimbursement for our product that have been prescribed to a patient.

         

Net Revenues

 

We recognize net revenue from LYMPHIR sales, net of variable consideration and consideration payable to parties other than our customers consisting of estimates related to allowances for sales returns, government chargebacks, patient coupon programs, and specialty distributor fees. Revenue is generally recognized when the customer obtains control of the Company’s product, which occurs at a point in time, upon delivery based on the contractual shipping terms of a contract.

 

We estimate variable consideration using the expected value method, constrained to amounts for which it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue will not occur when uncertainties are resolved. Calculating certain of these items involves estimates and judgments based on sales or invoice data, contractual terms, historical or expected utilization rates, new information regarding changes in applicable regulations and guidelines that would impact the amount of the actual allowance and our expectations regarding future utilization rates and channel inventory data. We will review the adequacy of our provisions for all gross-to-net adjustments on a quarterly basis. Amounts reserved for these adjustments are made when trends or significant events indicate that adjustment is appropriate reflecting actual experience.

 

7

 

 

The Company elected the practical expedient in ASC 606-10-32-18 and does not assess whether a significant financing component exists for contracts in which payment is expected within one year. No other practical expedients were applied.

  

Gross-to-Net Adjustments

 

Specialty Distributor Fees

 

We pay fees for distribution services, such as fees for certain data that customers provide us. We expect our customers will earn these fees and accordingly deduct these fees from gross product sales and accounts receivable at the time we recognize the related revenues.

 

Product Returns

 

Customers have the right to return products if they are damaged, defective, or expired, or as it is defined in their customer agreement. We have estimated product returns based on the experience of similar products in the market, and will continue to estimate returns based on our actual returns, sales data, and inventory levels in the distribution channel. These estimates are recorded as a reduction against gross product sales at the time of the sales.

 

Chargebacks

 

Chargebacks will occur when federal agencies who we contract with, or may contract with, can purchase off the Federal Supply Schedule or when Public Health Service 340B covered entities purchase directly from our customers at discounted prices. Our customers then charge us the difference between their purchase price and the discounted price. We estimate chargebacks considering the terms of the applicable arrangement and our visibility regarding utilization. These chargebacks are recorded in the same period as the related revenue, as a reduction against gross product sales and accounts receivable.

 

Co-payment Assistance

 

We offer co-payment assistance to patients with commercial insurance that have coverage and are allowed such co-payment assistance. We estimate the average co-payment assistance amounts for our products based on expected customer utilization and record any such amounts as a reduction from gross product revenue at the time of sale. The Company has deposited the estimated co-pay assistance reflected and included in the gross-to-net adjustments.

Net Revenue  $1,667,298   $5,611,409 

 

Accounts receivable, net

 

Accounts receivable, net is stated at amounts invoiced less allowances for distributor fees, chargebacks, and estimated returns. At March 31, 2026, these sales allowances totaled $837,585. On a periodic basis, the Company evaluates its accounts receivable to establish an allowance for doubtful accounts. The allowance reflects our current estimate of credit losses expected to occur over the life of the receivable. In developing our allowance for expected credit losses, we use assumptions to capture the risk of loss, even if remote, based on a number of factors including existing contractual payment terms, individual customer circumstances, historical payment patterns of our customers, a review of the local economic environment and its potential impact on expected future customer payment patterns. Our collection risk is mitigated to a certain extent by the fact that sales are collected in a reasonable period of time, allowing for the ability to reduce exposure on defaults if collection issues are identified. We update our allowance as necessary to reflect expected credit losses over the remaining accounts receivable that are past due. We do not currently expect our current or future exposures to credit losses to have a significant impact on us. The estimated allowance for expected credit losses was $0 as of March 31, 2026.

7. PATENT AND TECHNOLOGY LICENSE AGREEMENTS

 

Patent and Technology License Agreement – Mino-Lok

 

LMB has a patent and technology license agreement with Novel Anti-Infective Therapeutics, Inc. (“NAT”) to develop and commercialize Mino-Lok® on an exclusive, worldwide sub-licensable basis, as amended. LMB pays an annual maintenance fee each June until commercial sales of a product subject to the license commence. The Company recorded an annual maintenance fee expense of $90,000 in both 2025 and 2024.

 

LMB will also pay annual royalties on net sales of licensed products, with a low double digit royalty rate (within a range of 10% to 15%). In limited circumstances in which the licensed product is not subject to a valid patent claim and a competitor is selling a competing product, the royalty rate is in the low- to mid-single digits (within a range of 2% to 7%). After a commercial sale is obtained, LMB must pay minimum aggregate annual royalties of $100,000 in the first commercial year which is prorated for a less than 12-month period, increasing $25,000 per year to a maximum of $150,000 annually. LMB must also pay NAT up to $1,100,000 upon achieving specified regulatory and sales milestones. Finally, LMB must pay NAT a specified percentage of payments received from any sub-licensees.

 

Unless earlier terminated by NAT, based on the failure to achieve certain development and commercial milestones, the license agreement remains in effect until the date that all patents licensed under the agreement have expired and all patent applications within the licensed patent rights have been cancelled, withdrawn, or expressly abandoned.

 

License Agreement with Eterna

 

On October 6, 2020, our subsidiary, NoveCite, entered into a license agreement with Novellus Therapeutics Limited (“Novellus”), whereby NoveCite acquired an exclusive, worldwide license, with the right to sublicense, develop and commercialize a stem cell therapy based on the Novellus’s patented technology for the treatment of acute pneumonitis of any etiology in which inflammation is a major agent in humans. Upon execution of the license agreement, we paid $5,000,000 to Novellus, which was charged to research and development expense during the year ended September 30, 2021, and issued to Novellus shares of NoveCite’s common stock representing 25% of the outstanding equity. We own the other 75% of NoveCite’s outstanding equity. Pursuant to the terms of the original stock subscription agreement, if NoveCite issued additional equity, subject to certain exceptions, NoveCite had to maintain Novellus’s ownership at 25% by issuing additional shares to Novellus.

 

In July 2021, Novellus was acquired by Brooklyn ImmunoTherapeutics, Inc. (“Brooklyn”). Pursuant to this transaction, the NoveCite license was assumed by Brooklyn with all original terms and conditions. In connection with that transaction, the stock subscription agreement was amended to assign to Brooklyn all of Novellus’s right, title, and interest in the stock subscription agreement and delete the anti-dilution protection and replace it with a right of first refusal whereby Brooklyn will have the right to purchase all or a portion of the securities that NoveCite intends to sell or in the alternative, at the option of NoveCite, Brooklyn may purchase that amount of the securities proposed to be sold by NoveCite to allow Brooklyn to maintain its then percentage ownership. In October 2022, Brooklyn changed its name to Eterna Therapeutics Inc. (“Eterna”).

 

We are responsible for the operational activities of NoveCite and bear all costs necessary to operate NoveCite. Our officers are also the officers of NoveCite and oversee the business strategy and operations of NoveCite. As such, NoveCite is accounted for as a consolidated subsidiary with a noncontrolling interest.

 

10

 

 

Eterna has no contractual rights in the profits or obligations to share in the losses of NoveCite, and the Company has not allocated any losses to the noncontrolling interest.

 

Under the license agreement, NoveCite is obligated to pay Eterna up to an aggregate of $51,000,000 in regulatory and developmental milestone payments. NoveCite also must pay a royalty equal to a mid-teens percentage of net sales, commencing upon the first commercial sale of a licensed product. This royalty is subject to downward adjustment on a product-by-product and country-by-country basis to a mid-single digit percentage (within a range of 4% to 8%) of net sales in any country in the event of the expiration of the last valid patent claim or if no valid patent claim exists in that country. The royalty will end on the earlier of (i) date on which a biosimilar product is first marketed, sold, or distributed by Eterna or any third party in the applicable country or (ii) the 10-year anniversary of the date of expiration of the last-to-expire valid patent claim in that country. In the case of a country where no licensed patent ever exists, the royalty will end on the later of (i) the date of expiry of such licensed product’s regulatory exclusivity and (ii) the 10-year anniversary of the date of the first commercial sale of the licensed product in the applicable country. In addition, NoveCite will pay to Eterna an amount equal to a mid-twenties percentage of any sublicensee fees it receives.

 

Under the terms of the license agreement, in the event that Eterna receives any revenue involving the original cell line included in the licensed technology, then Eterna shall remit to NoveCite 50% of such revenue.

 

The term of the license agreement continues on a country-by-country and licensed product-by-licensed product basis until the expiration of the last-to-expire royalty term. Either party may terminate the license agreement upon written notice if the other party is in material default. NoveCite may terminate the license agreement at any time without cause upon 90 days prior written notice.

 

Eterna will be responsible for preparing, filing, prosecuting, and maintaining all patent applications and patents included in the licensed patents in the territory, provided however, that if Eterna decides that it is not interested in maintaining a particular licensed patent or in preparing, filing, or prosecuting a licensed patent, NoveCite will have the right, but not the obligation, to assume such responsibilities in the territory at NoveCite’s sole cost and expense.

 

License Agreement with Eisai

 

In September 2021, we entered into an asset purchase agreement with Dr. Reddy’s Laboratories SA, a subsidiary of Dr. Reddy’s Laboratories, Ltd. (collectively, “Dr. Reddy’s”) and a license agreement with Eisai Co., Ltd. (“Eisai”) to acquire an exclusive license of E7777 (denileukin diftitox), an oncology immunotherapy for the treatment of CTCL, a rare form of non-Hodgkin lymphoma. We renamed E7777 as I/ONTAK and also obtained the trade name of LYMPHIRTM for the product. We assigned these agreements to Citius Oncology effective April 1, 2022 and we received a Biologics License Application (“BLA”) approval from the FDA for LYMPHIR in August 2024.

 

Under the terms of these agreements, we acquired Dr. Reddy’s exclusive license of E7777 from Eisai and other related assets owned by Dr. Reddy’s (which are now owned by Citius Oncology). The exclusive license include rights to develop and commercialize E7777 in all markets except for Japan and certain parts of Asia. Eisai retains exclusive development and marketing rights for the agent in Japan, China, Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Macau, Indonesia, Thailand, Malaysia, Brunei, Singapore, India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Philippines, Vietnam, Myanmar, Cambodia, Laos, Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Nepal, Mongolia, and Papua New Guinea. We paid Dr. Reddy’s a $40 million upfront payment, which represents the acquisition date fair value of the in-process research and development acquired from Dr. Reddy’s. Dr. Reddy’s is entitled to up to $40 million in development milestone payments related to CTCL approvals in the U.S. and other markets, up to $70 million in development milestones for additional indications, as well as commercial milestone payments and low double-digit tiered royalties on net product sales (within a range of 10% to 15%), and up to $300 million for commercial sales milestones. Citius Oncology also must pay on a fiscal quarter basis tiered royalties equal to low double-digit percentages of net product sales (within a range of 10% to 15%). The royalties will end on the earlier of (i) the 15-year anniversary of the first commercial sale of the latest indication that received regulatory approval in the applicable country and (ii) the date on which a biosimilar product results in the reduction of net sales in the applicable product by 50% in two consecutive quarters, as compared to the four quarters prior to the first commercial sale of the biosimilar product. Citius Oncology will also pay to Dr. Reddy’s an amount equal to a low-thirties percentage of any sublicense upfront consideration or milestone payments (or the like) received by us and the greater of (i) a low-thirties percentage of any sublicensee sales-based royalties or (ii) a mid-single digit percentage of such licensee’s net sales. Citius Pharma is a guarantor of Citius Oncology’s payment obligations under these agreements.

At the time of the FDA approval for LYMPHIR, a $27.5 million milestone payment became payable to Dr. Reddy’s under the terms of the asset purchase agreement for which a balance of $17,650,000 remains due as of March 31, 2026. Dr. Reddy’s agreed to a partial deferral without penalty of this milestone payment.

 

Under the license agreement, Eisai was due a $5.9 million milestone payment upon FDA approval, and additional commercial milestone payments related to the achievement of net product sales thresholds and an aggregate of up to $22 million related to the achievement of net product sales thresholds. Citius Oncology was also required to reimburse Eisai for up to $2.65 million of its costs to complete the Phase 3 pivotal clinical trial for LYMPHIR for the CTCL indication and reimburse Eisai for all reasonable costs associated with the preparation of a BLA for LYMPHIR. Eisai was responsible for completing the CTCL clinical trial, and chemistry, manufacturing, and controls (“CMC”) activities through the filing of the BLA for LYMPHIR with the FDA. We are responsible for development costs associated with potential additional indications.

 

On March 28, 2025, Citius Oncology and Eisai entered into a letter agreement that amended the license agreement to provide for a payment schedule to Eisai for the milestone payment and certain unpaid invoices. We agreed to pay Eisai $2,535,318 on July 15, 2025, $2,350,000 on the 15th of each of the subsequent four months, and make a final payment of $2,197,892 on or before December 15, 2025, in each case with interest on each obligation from its original due date through the date of payment at the rate of 2% per annum. During the six months ended March 31, 2026, we recorded $78,872 in interest expense under the agreement. The parties released each other from any and all claims, losses, damages, costs and expenses that arise from or related to our failure to pay the milestone payment or the other incurred costs under the license agreement except for any claims arising out of a breach of the letter agreement. All other terms of the license agreement remain in full force and effect. On December 15, 2025, we paid Eisai the balance of the outstanding milestone approval fee and accumulated interest on the license fee. At March 31, 2026, we owe Eisai for other unpaid invoices, consisting of $2,200,000 of accounts payable and $4,062,481 of accrued expenses.

 

The term of the license agreement will continue until the 10-year anniversary of the first commercial sale on a country-by-country basis. The first commercial sale in the United States occurred in December 2025. The term of the license may be extended for additional 10-year periods for all countries in the territory by notifying Eisai and paying an extension fee equal to $10 million. Either party may terminate the license agreement upon written notice if the other party is in material breach of the agreement, subject to cure within the designated time periods. Either party also may terminate the license agreement immediately upon written notice if the other party files for bankruptcy or takes related actions or is unable to pay its debts as they become due. Additionally, either party will have the right to terminate the agreement if the other party directly or indirectly challenges the patentability, enforceability or validity of any licensed patent.

 

Under the purchase agreement with Dr. Reddy’s, we are required to (i) use commercially reasonable efforts to make commercially available products in the CTCL indication, peripheral T-cell lymphoma indication and immuno-oncology indication, (ii) initiate two investigator initiated immuno-oncology trials (both of which have been initiated), (iii) use commercially reasonable efforts to achieve each of the approval milestones, and (iv) complete each specified immuno-oncology investigator trial on or before the four-year anniversary of the effective date of the definitive agreement. Additionally, we are required to commercially launch a product in a territory within six months of receiving regulatory approval for such product in each such jurisdiction; though approved in August 2024, Dr. Reddy’s waived the six-month requirement and the launch of LYMPHIR in December 2025 satisfied this requirement in the U.S.

 

As part of the definitive agreement with Dr. Reddy’s, Citius Pharma acquired method of use patents in which LYMPHIR is administered in combination with the programmed cell death protein 1 (“PD-1”) pathway inhibitor drug class. PD-1 plays a vital role in inhibiting immune responses and promoting self-tolerance through modulating the activity of T-cells, activating apoptosis of antigen-specific T cells and inhibiting apoptosis of regulatory T cells.

The reverse stock split became effective on November 25, 2024, and the Company’s Common Stock began trading on a reverse stock split-adjusted basis on the Nasdaq Capital Market on November 26, 2024.

The Company’s stockholders approved the authorized share increase on June 9, 2025.

 

On April 17, 2025, the Company filed a certificate of designation with the Nevada Secretary of State, designating the powers, rights, privileges and restrictions of the Series A Preferred Stock. The certificate provides that each share of Series A Preferred Stock had 1,000,000,000 votes and voted together with the outstanding shares of Common Stock as a single class, exclusively with respect to the authorized share increase proposal and was not entitled to vote on any other matter. The Series A Preferred Stock was voted on the authorized share increase in the same proportion as the aggregate votes cast by holders of common stock “for” and “against” the proposal. The Series A Preferred Stock otherwise had no other voting rights, including in respect of any other proposal. The voting power attributable to the Series A Preferred Stock was disregarded for purposes of determining whether a quorum was present at the special meeting, and the establishment of a quorum at the special meeting was determined only with reference to the common stock.

 

Pursuant to its terms, on June 9, 2025, the outstanding share of Series A Preferred Stock was redeemed automatically for $100 after the Company published the final results of the stockholder vote on the authorized stock increase.

10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

Operating Lease

 

Effective July 1, 2019, we entered into a 76-month lease for office space in Cranford, NJ. On February 28, 2025, we extended the lease until February 28, 2030. A right-of-use asset of $786,697 was recognized as a non-cash asset and liability on the lease amendment date. We pay our proportionate share of real estate taxes and operating expenses in excess of the base year expenses. These costs are variable lease payments and are not included in the determination of the lease’s right-of-use asset or lease liability.

 

We identified and assessed the following significant assumptions in recognizing our right-of-use assets and corresponding lease liabilities:

 

  As the Cranford lease does not provide an implicit rate, we estimated the incremental borrowing rate in calculating the present value of the lease payments based on the remaining term as of the amendment date.

 

  Since we elected to account for each lease component and its associated non-lease components as a single combined component, all contract consideration was allocated to the combined lease component.

 

  The expected lease terms include noncancelable lease periods.

 

The elements of lease expense are as follows:

   Six Months Ended

Operating lease cost  $52,377   $119,412

Commercial Manufacturing Contracts

 

Citius Oncology had previously entered into an agreement with a contract manufacturing organization (“CMO”) for the manufacture and supply of bulk drug substance (“BDS”) with the agreement continuing through calendar year 2026. The agreement was terminated effective February 2026 by the CMO due to the breach of payment obligations by the Citius Oncology. Termination fees associated with this are approximately $20.1 million consisting of $17.1 million of charges associated with manufacturing which was previously committed in 2025 and 2026 but not produced, as well as $1.2 million of un-invoiced but incurred charges related to previous manufactured batches and $1.8 million of interest and other charges. These fees are included in General and Administrative Expense for the quarter ended March 31, 2026. Separately, in March 2026, the CMO gave notice that it made a decision to terminate all production at the current site related to microbial manufacturing and decommission the associated manufacturing lines. In March 2026 and in connection with the notice of termination from the CMO, we recorded a contract cancellation fee of $19,733,307 net of invoices already included in accounts payable.

 

Citius Oncology has been evaluating new BDS suppliers and anticipates entering into a letter of intent with a new CMO by June 30, 2026, with a subsequent master services agreement to follow. At this time, based on stock on hand and availability of alternate suppliers, we anticipate no interruption in commercial supply for the foreseeable future.

 

As of March 31, 2026, the Company also has commercial supply agreements with two other vendors for the completion and packaging of finished drug products. Minimum purchase commitments under these two agreements amount to approximately $4.0 million consisting of purchase commitment obligations of $2.2 million in calendar year 2026 and $1.8 million in calendar year 2027.

 

11. GAIN ON SALE OF NEW JERSEY NET OPERATING LOSSES

 

We recognized a gain of $3,833,277 for the six months ended March 31, 2026, in connection with the sale of certain New Jersey income tax net operating losses to a third party under the New Jersey Technology Business Tax Certificate Transfer Program.

The Loans bear interest at an annual rate equal to the greater of (x) prime plus 6.00% or 12.75%. The Loans are secured by a lien upon and security interest in all of Citius Oncology’s and its subsidiary’s assets, including intellectual property, subject to agreed exceptions. The maturity date of the Loans is November 1, 2029 (the “Maturity Date”).

 

Pursuant to the Loan Agreement, the Lender will have the right, at any time while any Loan is outstanding, to convert up to its pro rata share of $4.0 million of the outstanding principal of the Loans (the “Conversion Option”) into shares of the Citius Oncology’s common stock at a price per share equal to 120% of the exercise price of the Lender Warrants (as defined below) (the “Conversion Price”), subject to certain terms and conditions, including beneficial ownership limitations. In addition, Citius Oncology has agreed to use its reasonable best efforts to grant to each Lender the right to invest up to its pro rata share of $1.0 million in any issuance of equity securities of Citius Oncology after the Closing Date, on the same terms, conditions and pricing offered by Citius Oncology to other investors participating in such financing transaction (such right, the “Participation Right”). The Participation Right terminates 30 days after the repayment in full of all of the obligations under the Loan Agreement (other than inchoate indemnity obligations or other obligations that specifically survive termination).

 

In connection with the Loans, the Citius Oncology issued to each Lender warrants to purchase shares of its common stock (the “Lender Warrants”). The Lender Warrants entitle the Lenders, in the aggregate, to purchase a number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of common stock of Citius Oncology equal to the sum of $1 million, plus (i) 10% of the portion of the Tranche 2 Loans actually funded by the Lenders, plus (ii) 10% of the portion of the Tranche 3 Loans actually funded by Lenders, divided by the exercise price of $0.90.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

 

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations for the three and six months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 should be read together with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Report and in conjunction with the audited financial statements of Citius Pharmaceuticals, Inc. included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2025, filed with the SEC on December 23, 2025, as amended on January 28, 2026. The following discussion contains “forward-looking statements” that reflect our future plans, estimates, beliefs and expected performance. Our actual results may differ materially from those currently anticipated and expressed in such forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors. We caution that assumptions, expectations, projections, intentions, or beliefs about future events may, and often do, vary from actual results and the differences can be material. Please see “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” on page iii of this Report.

 

Business

 

We are a biopharmaceutical company dedicated to the development and commercialization of first-in-class critical care products. On September 12, 2014, we acquired Citius Pharmaceuticals, LLC as a wholly-owned subsidiary. Citius Pharmaceuticals, LLC was dissolved on December 29, 2023.

 

On March 30, 2016, we acquired all of the outstanding stock of Leonard-Meron Biosciences, Inc. by issuing shares of our common stock. We acquired identifiable intangible assets of $19,400,000 related to in-process research and development and recorded goodwill of $9,346,796 for the excess of the purchase consideration over the net assets acquired.

 

On September 11, 2020, we formed NoveCite, Inc., of which we own 75% of the issued and outstanding capital stock.

 

On August 23, 2021, we formed Citius Acquisition Corp., or SpinCo, as a wholly-owned subsidiary in conjunction with the acquisition of LYMPHIR, but Citius Acquisition did not begin operations until April 2022, when Citius Pharma transferred to it the assets related to LYMPHIR, including the related license agreement with Eisai and the related asset purchase agreement with Dr. Reddy’s Laboratories SA, a subsidiary of Dr. Reddy’s. At this time, Citius Acquisition changed its name to Citius Oncology, Inc. In August 2024, as part of the merger, the new publicly-traded company and majority-owned subsidiary was named Citius Oncology, Inc.

 

In-process research and development of $19,400,000 represents the value of LMB’s leading drug candidate (Mino-Lok), which is an antibiotic solution used to treat catheter-related bloodstream infections and is expected to be amortized on a straight-line basis over a period of eight years commencing upon revenue generation. Goodwill of $9,346,796 represents the value of LMB’s industry relationships and its assembled workforce. Goodwill will not be amortized but will be tested at least annually for impairment. In-process research and development of $73,400,000 represents the value of our exclusive license for LYMPHIR (denileukin diftitox), an oncology immunotherapy for the treatment of CTCL, a rare form of non-Hodgkin lymphoma and is being amortized on a straight-line basis over the remaining period of market exclusivity commencing upon revenue generation in December 2025.

 

Through March 31, 2026, we have devoted substantially all of our efforts to product development, raising capital, building infrastructure through strategic alliances and coordinating activities relating to our proprietary products. We have realized limited revenues from the sale of LYMPHIR, which commenced in December 2025.

 

Reverse Stock Split

 

Effective November 25, 2024, we executed a reverse stock split of our common stock, at a ratio of 1-for-25. All share amounts have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the split.

 

Patent and Technology License Agreements

 

Mino-Lok® - LMB has a patent and technology license agreement with Novel Anti-Infective Therapeutics, Inc. (“NAT”) to develop and commercialize Mino-Lok on an exclusive, worldwide sub-licensable basis, as amended. Since May 2014, LMB has paid an annual maintenance fee, which began at $30,000 and has increased over five years to $90,000, where it will remain until the commencement of commercial sales of a product subject to the license. LMB will also pay annual royalties on net sales of licensed products, with a low double digit royalty rate (within a range of 10% to 15%). In limited circumstances in which the licensed product is not subject to a valid patent claim and a competitor is selling a competing product, the royalty rate is in the low to mid-single digits (within a range of 2% to 7%). After a commercial sale is obtained, LMB must pay minimum aggregate annual royalties of $100,000 in the first commercial year which is prorated for a less-than-12-month period, increasing $25,000 per year to a maximum of $150,000 annually. LMB must also pay NAT up to $1,100,000 upon achieving specified regulatory and sales milestones. Finally, LMB must pay NAT a specified percentage of payments received from any sub-licensees.

NoveCite - On October 6, 2020, our subsidiary NoveCite entered into a license agreement with Novellus Therapeutics Limited, whereby NoveCite acquired an exclusive, worldwide license, with the right to sublicense, to develop and commercialize a stem cell therapy based on Novellus’s patented technology for the treatment of acute pneumonitis of any etiology in which inflammation is a major agent in humans. Upon execution of the license agreement, NoveCite paid $5,000,000 to Novellus and issued Novellus shares of Novecite’s common stock representing 25% of NoveCite’s outstanding equity. We own the other 75% of NoveCite’s outstanding equity.

 

In July 2021, Novellus was acquired by Brooklyn ImmunoTherapeutics and the NoveCite license was assumed by Brooklyn with all original terms and conditions. In October 2021, Brooklyn changed its name to Eterna Therapeutics Inc. (“Eterna”).

 

As part of the Novellus and Brooklyn merger transaction, the 25% non-dilutive position per the subscription agreement between Novellus and NoveCite was removed.

 

Under the license agreement, NoveCite is obligated to pay Eterna up to an aggregate of $51,000,000 in regulatory and developmental milestone payments. NoveCite also must pay a royalty equal to a mid-teens percentage of net sales, commencing upon the first commercial sale of a licensed product. This royalty is subject to downward adjustment on a product-by-product and country-by-country basis to a mid-single digit percentage (within a range of 4% to 8%) of net sales in any country in the event of the expiration of the last valid patent claim or if no valid patent claim exists in that country. The royalty will end on the earlier of (i) date on which a biosimilar product is first marketed, sold, or distributed by Eterna or any third party in the applicable country or (ii) the 10-year anniversary of the date of expiration of the last-to-expire valid patent claim in that country. In the case of a country where no licensed patent ever exists, the royalty will end on the later of (i) the date of expiry of such licensed product’s regulatory exclusivity and (ii) the 10-year anniversary of the date of the first commercial sale of the licensed product in the applicable country. In addition, NoveCite will pay to Eterna an amount equal to a mid-twenties percentage of any sublicensee fees it receives.

 

Under the terms of the license agreement, in the event that Eterna receives any revenue involving the original cell line included in the licensed technology, then Eterna shall remit to NoveCite 50% of such revenue.

 

LYMPHIR - In September 2021, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement with Dr. Reddy’s and a license agreement with Eisai to acquire an exclusive license of E7777 (denileukin diftitox), an oncology immunotherapy for the treatment of CTCL, a rare form of non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Citius Pharma assigned these agreements to Citius Acquisition Corp. effective April 1, 2022. We renamed E7777 as I/ONTAK and also obtained the trade name LYMPHIRTM for the product. Denileukin diftitox is referred to in this report as E7777, I/ONTAK or LYMPHIR, depending on the period of time and context that is being discussed.

 

Under the terms of these agreements, Citius Pharma acquired Dr. Reddy’s exclusive license of E7777 from Eisai and other related assets owned by Dr. Reddy’s (which are now owned by Citius Oncology). The exclusive license, through Citius Oncology, includes rights to develop and commercialize E7777 in all markets except for Japan and certain parts of Asia. Eisai retains exclusive development and marketing rights for the agent in Japan, China, Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Macau, Indonesia, Thailand, Malaysia, Brunei, Singapore, India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Philippines, Vietnam, Myanmar, Cambodia, Laos, Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Nepal, Mongolia, and Papua New Guinea. Citius Pharma paid Dr. Reddy’s a $40 million upfront payment which represents the acquisition date fair value of the in-process research and development acquired from Dr. Reddy’s. Dr. Reddy’s is entitled to up to $40 million in development milestone payments related to CTCL approvals in the U.S. and other markets, up to $70 million in development milestones for additional indications, as well as commercial milestone payments and low double-digit tiered royalties on net product sales (within a range of 10% to 15%), and up to $300 million for commercial sales milestones. Citius Oncology also must pay on a fiscal quarter basis tiered royalties equal to low double-digit percentages of net product sales (within a range of 10% to 15%). The royalties will end on the earlier of (i) the 15-year anniversary of the first commercial sale of the latest indication that received regulatory approval in the applicable country and (ii) the date on which a biosimilar product results in the reduction of net sales in the applicable product by 50% in two consecutive quarters, as compared to the four quarters prior to the first commercial sale of the biosimilar product. Citius Oncology will also pay Dr. Reddy’s an amount equal to a low-thirties percentage of any sublicense upfront consideration or milestone payments (or the like) received by us and the greater of (i) a low-thirties percentage of any sublicensee sales-based royalties or (ii) a mid-single digit percentage of such licensee’s net sales. Citius Pharma is a guarantor of Citius Oncology’s payment obligations under these agreements.

At the time of the FDA approval for LYMPHIR, a $27.5 million milestone payment became payable to Dr. Reddy’s under the terms of the asset purchase agreement for which a balance of $17.65 million remains due as of March 31, 2026. Dr. Reddy’s agreed to a partial deferral without penalty of this milestone payment.

 

Under the license agreement, Eisai was due a $5.9 million milestone payment, upon FDA approval, and additional commercial milestone payments related to the achievement of net product sales thresholds and an aggregate of up to $22 million related to the achievement of net product sales thresholds. We were also required to reimburse Eisai for up to $2.65 million of its costs to complete the Phase 3 pivotal clinical trial for LYMPHIR for the CTCL indication and reimburse Eisai for all reasonable costs associated with the preparation of a BLA for LYMPHIR. Eisai was responsible for completing the CTCL clinical trial, and CMC activities through the filing of the BLA for LYMPHIR with the FDA. We are responsible for development costs associated with potential additional indications.

 

On March 28, 2025, Citius Oncology and Eisai entered into a letter agreement that amended the license agreement to provide for a payment schedule to Eisai for the milestone payment and certain unpaid invoices. We agreed to pay Eisai $2,535,318 on July 15, 2025, $2,350,000 on the 15th of each of the subsequent four months, and make a final payment of $2,197,892 on or before December 15, 2025, in each case with interest on each obligation from its original due date through the date of payment at the rate of 2% per annum. During the six months ended March 31, 2026, we recorded $78,872 in interest expense under the agreement. The parties released each other from any and all claims, losses, damages, costs and expenses that arise from or related to our failure to pay the milestone payment or the other incurred costs under the license agreement except for any claims arising out of a breach of the letter agreement. All other terms of the license agreement remain in full force and effect. On December 15, 2025, we paid Eisai the balance of the outstanding milestone approval fee and accumulated interest on the license fee. At March 31, 2026, we owe Eisai approximately $6.3 million for certain other unpaid invoices.

 

The term of the license agreement will continue until the 10-year anniversary of the first commercial sale on a country-by-country basis. The first commercial sale in the United States occurred in December 2025. The term of the license may be extended for additional 10-year periods for all countries in the territory by notifying Eisai and paying an extension fee equal to $10 million. Either party may terminate the license agreement upon written notice if the other party is in material breach of the agreement, subject to cure within the designated time periods. Either party also may terminate the license agreement immediately upon written notice if the other party files for bankruptcy or takes related actions or is unable to pay its debts as they become due. Additionally, either party will have the right to terminate the agreement if the other party directly or indirectly challenges the patentability, enforceability or validity of any licensed patent.

 

Under the purchase agreement with Dr. Reddy’s, we are required to (i) use commercially reasonable efforts to make commercially available products in the CTCL indication, peripheral T-cell lymphoma indication and immuno-oncology indication, (ii) initiate two investigator initiated immuno-oncology trials (both of which have been initiated), (iii) use commercially reasonable efforts to achieve each of the approval milestones, and (iv) to complete each specified immuno-oncology investigator trial on or before the four-year anniversary of the effective date of the definitive agreement. Additionally, we are required to commercially launch a product in a territory within six months of receiving regulatory approval for such product in each such jurisdiction; though approved in August 2024, Dr. Reddy’s waived the six-month requirement and the launch of LYMPHIR in December 2025 satisfied this requirement in the U.S.

 Recent Events

 

Commercial Launch Activities

 

On March 31, 2026, Citius Oncology provided an update on the U.S. commercial launch of LYMPHIR, highlighting continued adoption across leading oncology centers, broad payer coverage progress, and advancing investigator-led clinical studies. Citius Oncology expects continued expansion in prescribing activity, together with further clinical validation through ongoing investigator-led studies. These trends support LYMPHIR's potential not only for continued integration in the CTCL treatment landscape, but also its potential as a part of a combination immunotherapy regimen in other cancers.

 

Key Early Launch Metrics:

 

Growth in orders from target institutions since launch, with initial accounts placing repeat orders;

 

Strong institutional uptake, with 83% of target accounts having added or actively progressing LYMPHIR through formulary review;

 

Broad and expanding market access with 135 health plans representing 80% of covered lives, secured and reimbursement systems established;

 

No reported reimbursement denials or prior authorization barriers;

 

Increasing demand for product education;

 

Initial penetration into community infusion centers underway with patients beginning to transition from larger cancer centers;

 

Commercial buildout proceeding, with field team onboarding and expansion in progress with our contracted sales organization; and,

 

Commercial supply remains well positioned to support anticipated U.S. demand, and international expansion.

 

On April 29, 2026, Citius Oncology announced the initial shipment of LYMPHIR to Europe through a regional distribution partner, marking an important milestone in expanding access to the therapy for patients outside the US. LYMPHIR will be made available to eligible patients through Named Patient Programs in accordance with local regulations in each country. The initiation of European distribution represents a strategic step in Citius Oncology’s effort to extend access to LYMPHIR.

 

US Distribution Agreements

 

In 2025, Citius Oncology executed three service agreements with U.S. pharmaceutical specialty distributors who are the customers and who distribute LYMPHIR to healthcare organizations, which include academic centers, community oncology practices, as well as infusion centers. The transaction price for gross product revenues under these customer specialty distributor agreements are based on the contractually stated wholesale acquisition cost. The transaction price is reduced for variable considerations, including product returns, chargebacks, co-payment assistance, and other gross-to-net adjustments, which are reasonably estimated by Citius Oncology and constrained to amounts that are probable not to result in a significant revenue reversal. As LYMPHIR is a newly launched product, any reasonable estimates made by Citius Oncology regarding certain gross-to-net adjustments will result from certain information, such as inventory held by distributors, market data or comparable products, until sufficient historical data becomes available.

 

International Distribution Agreements

 

On October 7, 2025, Citius Oncology entered into an exclusive distribution agreement with Integris Pharma S.A., headquartered in Athens, Greece to make LYMPHIR available to eligible patients through country-specific Named Patient Programs (“NPPs”). The partnership covers Greece, Cyprus, Malta, Bulgaria, Romania, Croatia, Serbia, Albania, Bosnia Herzegovina, Kosovo, Montenegro and North Macedonia. NPPs are formally recognized pathways designed to give patients earlier access to promising new medicines in advance of full marketing authorization and commercial availability in markets outside the U.S. Under these programs, a treating physician may request a therapy for an individual patient when no adequate approved alternatives exist. In doing so, NPPs bridge a critical gap between the completion of clinical trials in each region and broad market introduction, ensuring that patients with serious illnesses are not left waiting for life-extending innovations. These programs provide access, where permitted by local law, and do not constitute commercial approval of LYMPHIR outside the U.S.

 

27

 

 

On December 4, 2025, Citius Oncology announced an exclusive distribution agreement with Er-Kim İlaç Sanayi ve Ticaret A.Ş. ("Er-Kim"), a leading pharmaceutical distributor based in Turkey, for LYMPHIR. Under the agreement, Er-Kim will be the exclusive distributor of LYMPHIR in Turkey and key Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries, including Bahrain, Qatar, Oman, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates.

 

On February11, 2026, Citius Oncology announced an exclusive distribution agreement with Uniphar ("Uniphar"), a leading international healthcare services company, to support access to LYMPHIR. Under the agreement, Uniphar will serve as Citius Oncology’s uexclusive distribution partner in designated international territories in Western and stern Europe. Citius Oncology will supply finished product and provide ongoing support in accordance with the agreement. LYMPHIR is not approved for commercial use outside the U.S. and, will be provided solely through country-specific managed access programs, which do not constitute marketing authorization or a commercial launch.

 

Investigator Initiated Trials

 

On March 4, 2026, Citius Oncology announced positive topline safety and efficacy results from an investigator-initiated Phase 1 trial evaluating LYMPHIR administered prior to commercial CD19 directed CAR T therapy in patients with high risk relapsed or refractory diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL).

 

On March 10, 2026, Citius Oncology announced positive topline results from a completed investigator-initiated Phase 1 clinical trial conducted by University of Pittsburgh investigators. This study evaluated the direct T-regulatory (Treg) cell depletion activity of LYMPHIR in combination with the PD-1 immune checkpoint inhibitor pembrolizumab (KEYTRUDA®) in patients with recurrent or refractory gynecologic cancers, including ovarian and endometrial malignancies.

 

Discussions are ongoing regarding next-stage development with respect to both investigator-initiated trials.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

Liquidity and Working Capital

 

We have incurred operating losses since inception and incurred a net loss of approximately $37.5 million for the six months ended March 31, 2026. At March 31, 2026, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $268.3 million.

Our primary source of cash flow since inception has been from financing activities. We have had limited revenue from sales of LYMPHIR, which commenced in December 2025.

 

On April 24, 2026, Citius Pharma closed a registered direct offering for the sale of 5,076,143 shares of common stock (or pre-funded warrants in lieu thereof) at a purchase price of $0.985 per share. The Company also issued immediately exercisable unregistered warrants to purchase 5,076,143 shares of common stock at $0.86 per share. Gross proceeds were approximately $5.0 million, before deducting the placement agent fees and expenses.

 

On May 5, 2026, Citius Oncology, entered into an agreement with the holder of certain existing warrants to purchase 12,777,778 shares of Citius Oncology common stock, which consists of all of the 6,818,182 shares underlying warrants originally issued on July 16, 2025, all of the 5,142,858 shares underlying warrants originally issued on September 10, 2025, and 816,738 shares underlying warrants originally issued December 10, 2025, each with an exercise price of $1.09 per share. As an inducement to the holder for exercising the warrants in cash at a reduced exercise price of $0.90 per share, Citius Oncology issued the holder new warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 25,555,556 shares of Citius Oncology common stock, which have similar terms to the exercised warrants and an exercise price of $0.90. Gross proceeds were approximately $11.5 million, before deducting the placement agent fees and expenses.

 

On May 5, 2026 Citius Oncology, entered into a Loan Agreement that makes available term loans in an aggregate principal amount of up to $25.0 million (collectively, the “Loans”), with (i) $10.0 million to be funded on May 6, 2026, (ii) up to $7.0 million beginning on the later of (A) the date on which certain net revenue and liquidity milestones are achieved and (B) October 1, 2026, and continuing through December 31, 2026, and (iii) up to $8.0 million beginning on the later of (A) the date on which certain additional net revenue milestones are achieved and one or more Tranche 2 Loans have been drawn and (B) January 1, 2027, and continuing through March 31, 2027.

In order to satisfy our outstanding milestone payment obligations, as well as meet minimum purchase commitments under our agreements for the manufacture and supply of our drug product, in addition to generating income from the sale of LYMPHIR, we need to obtain substantial additional financing and cannot be sure that any additional funding will be available on terms favorable to us, or at all. As of March 31, 2026, our outstanding milestone payments and purchase commitments include:

 

  On March 28, 2025, we entered into a letter agreement to pay Eisai $2,535,318 on or before July 15, 2025, and $2,350,000 thereafter on the 15th of each of the next four months, and make a final payment of $2,197,892 on or before December 15, 2025, in each case with interest on each obligation from its original due date at the rate of 2% per annum. As of March 31, 2026, we have paid the milestone in full and owe a balance of approximately $6.3 million to Eisai for certain other invoices.

 

  At the time of the FDA approval for LYMPHIR, a $27.5 million milestone payment became payable to Dr. Reddy’s of which a balance of $17.65 million remains due as of March 31, 2026. Dr. Reddy’s has agreed to a partial deferral without penalty of this milestone payment.

Citius Oncology had previously entered into an agreement with a contract manufacturing organization (“CMO”) for the manufacture and supply of bulk drug substance (“BDS”) with the agreement continuing through calendar year 2026. The agreement was terminated effective February 2026, by the CMO due to the breach of payment obligations by the Citius Oncology. Termination fees associated with this are approximately $20.1 million consisting of $17.1 million of charges associated with manufacturing which was previously committed in 2025 and 2026 but not produced, as well as $1.2 million of un-invoiced but incurred charges related to previous manufactured batches and $1.8 million of interest and other charges. These fees are included in General and Administrative Expense for the quarter ended March 31, 2026. Separately, in March 2026, the CMO gave notice that it made a decision to terminate all production at the current site related to microbial manufacturing and decommission the associated manufacturing lines. In March 2026 and in connection with the notice of termination from the CMO, we recorded a contract cancellation fee of $19,733,307 net of invoices already included in accounts payable.

 

Citius Oncology has been evaluating new BDS suppliers and anticipates entering into a letter of intent with a new CMO by June 30, 2026 with a subsequent master services agreement to follow. At this time, based on stock on hand and availability of alternate suppliers, we anticipate no interruption in commercial supply for the foreseeable future.

 

  As of March 31, 2026, we also have commercial supply agreements with two other vendors for the completion and packaging of finished drug products. Minimum purchase commitments under these two agreements are approximately $4.0 million consisting of purchase commitment obligations of $2.2 million in calendar years 2026 and $1.8 million in 2027.

 

After giving effect to our April 24, 2026 registered direct offering and the Citius Oncology May 5, 2026 warrant exercise and loan agreement, we expect that we and Citius Oncology collectively will have sufficient funds to continue our operations through November 2026. We will need to raise additional capital in the future to support our operations beyond November 2026. There is no assurance, however, that we will be successful in raising needed capital or that the proceeds will be received in an amount or in a timely manner to support our operations.

 

Investing Activities

 

During the six months ended March 31, 2026, we paid the final $2,900,000 due to Eisai in connection with the LYMPHIR approval milestone and paid $2,100,000 in connection with the milestone payment due to Dr. Reddy’s. At March 31, 2026, we owe Dr. Reddy’s $17,650,000 representing the balance of the approval milestone.

 

Inflation

 

Our management believes that inflation has not had a material effect on our results of operations.

 

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

The preparation of our financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the amounts of revenues and expenses recorded during the reporting periods. We base our estimates on historical experience, where applicable, and other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from our estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

 

Our critical accounting policies and use of estimates as discussed in the footnotes to the condensed consolidated financial statements included within this Form 10-Q should also be read in conjunction with, the annual consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2025, filed with the SEC on December 23, 2025, as amended January 28, 2026.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the specified time periods and accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.

 

Our Chief Executive Officer (who is our principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (who is our principal financial officer and principal accounting officer), evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act) as of March 31, 2026. In designing and evaluating disclosure controls and procedures, we recognize that any disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objective. As of March 31, 2026, based on the evaluation of these disclosure controls and procedures, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in 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.
