Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Palatin Technologies reported its quarterly results for the period ended March 31, 2026, showing it is shifting from pure R&D funding toward collaboration-driven revenue. Collaboration and license revenue reached $3.9 million for the quarter and $12.9 million for the nine months, compared with no revenue in the prior-year periods, driven mainly by a $3.75 million non-cash license to Altanispac Labs and earlier payments under its Boehringer Ingelheim retinal disease agreement. Operating expenses remained high, with research and development at $3.5 million and general and administrative at $2.0 million for the quarter. Net loss narrowed to $1.43 million for the quarter and $4.02 million year-to-date. Cash and cash equivalents improved to $10.2 million, supported by multiple 2025 equity and warrant financings totaling tens of millions of dollars, and stockholders’ equity turned positive at $10.6 million. Management still highlights long-term funding needs but believes current cash will fund operations for at least twelve months.

Positive

  • Collaboration and license revenue inflection: Palatin reported $12.88 million in collaboration and license revenue for the nine months ended March 31, 2026, versus zero in the prior year, driven by the Boehringer Ingelheim and Altanispac agreements.
  • Improved balance sheet and liquidity: Cash and cash equivalents increased to $10.16 million and stockholders’ equity turned positive at $10.59 million as of March 31, 2026, supported by multiple 2025 equity and warrant financings.

Negative

  • Continuing losses and large accumulated deficit: The company posted a nine‑month net loss of $4.02 million and reported an accumulated deficit of $463.09 million as of March 31, 2026, and still anticipates needing substantial additional financing to fund development programs.

Insights

Licensing deals drove new revenue and stronger cash, but Palatin remains loss-making and dependent on future funding.

Palatin Technologies generated collaboration and license revenue of $12.88M over the nine months ended March 31, 2026, versus zero a year earlier. This was mainly from its Boehringer Ingelheim retinal disease collaboration and a $3.75M non-cash PL9643 sublicense to Altanispac, marking a material shift toward partnered income.

Despite higher revenue, the company recorded a nine‑month net loss of $4.02M, with research and development expenses of $10.36M and general and administrative expenses of $6.77M. Management notes an accumulated deficit of $463.09M and ongoing need for substantial additional financing to complete development programs.

Cash and cash equivalents rose to $10.16M at March 31, 2026, helped by the November 2025 public offering (gross proceeds about $18.2M) and earlier February and May 2025 offerings. Management believes existing cash will fund operations for the next twelve months, but long‑term progress still depends on additional capital and milestone execution under its licensing agreements.

melanocortin receptor medical
"developing first-in-class medicines based on molecules that modulate the activity of the melanocortin receptor (“MCR”) system"
A melanocortin receptor is a protein on the surface of cells that responds to naturally occurring signaling molecules to help control processes such as skin pigmentation, appetite, energy balance and inflammation. For investors, these receptors are important because drugs that activate or block them can treat conditions from obesity to inflammatory and pigment disorders; think of a receptor as a light switch or thermostat for a specific biological pathway, where flipping it can change disease outcomes and the commercial value of a therapy.

Series D Convertible Preferred Stock financial
"newly designated Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.01, with a stated value of $100 per share"
Series D convertible preferred stock is a class of shares issued in a later-stage funding round that gives holders priority over common shareholders for payouts and often a fixed dividend, while including an option to convert those shares into common stock. It matters to investors because it affects who gets paid first if a company is sold or liquidates and can change ownership stakes and voting power when converted, similar to holding a safer ticket that can be exchanged for regular tickets later.
at-the-market offering financial
"may, from time to time, sell shares of the Company’s common stock at market prices by methods deemed to be an “at-the-market offering”"
An at-the-market offering is a method companies use to sell new shares of stock directly into the open market over time, rather than all at once. This allows them to raise money gradually, similar to selling small pieces of a product instead of a large batch. For investors, it means the company can access funding more flexibly, but it may also increase the supply of shares and influence the stock’s price.
going concern financial
"follows the provisions of ASC Topic 205-40, Presentation of Financial Statements — Going Concern"
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.

"entered into a Research Collaboration, License and Patent Assignment Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Boehringer Ingelheim"

the results of further development, clinical trials and the timing of regulatory submissions with our obesity program, including a novel once-weekly peptide melanocortin receptor-4 (“MC4R) selective agonist with an Investigational New Drug (“IND”) filing projected in the fourth quarter of calendar year 2026 and an oral small molecule MC4R selective agonist with an IND filing projected in the first half of calendar year 2027; PL8177, an oral peptide MC1R formulation for treatment of ulcerative colitis, which reported positive topline data in a Phase 2 clinical trial proof-of-concept trial in the first quarter of 2025; and an MCR agonist for diabetic nephropathy, which reported positive topline data in the fourth quarter of 2024;

 

estimates of our expenses, future revenue and capital requirements;

 

our ability to achieve profitability;

 

our ability to advance product candidates into, and successfully complete, clinical trials;

the timing or likelihood of regulatory filings and approvals;

 

our expectations regarding the clinical efficacy and utility of our melanocortin agonist product candidates for treatment of inflammatory and autoimmune related diseases and disorders, including ocular indications;

 

our ability to compete with other products and technologies treating the same or similar indications as our product candidates;

 

the ability of our contract manufacturers to perform their manufacturing activities for us in compliance with applicable regulations;

 

ii

 

 

our ability to recognize the potential value of our licensing arrangements with third parties;

 

the potential to achieve revenues from the sale of our product candidates;

 

our ability to obtain adequate reimbursement from private insurers and other healthcare payers;

the scope of protection we are able to establish and maintain for intellectual property rights covering our product candidates and technology in the United States and throughout the world;

the impact of any geopolitical instability, economic uncertainty, financial markets volatility, or capital markets disruption resulting from the ongoing military conflict between Russia and Ukraine or conflicts in the Middle East, and any resulting effects on our revenue, financial condition, or results of operations;

 

the impact of legislative or regulatory healthcare reforms in the United States;

 

our ability to adapt to changes in global economic conditions as well as competing products and technologies; and

 

our ability to remain listed on the NYSE American stock exchange.

 

Such forward-looking statements involve risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause our actual results to be materially different from historical results or from any results expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Our future operating results are subject to risks and uncertainties and are dependent upon many factors, including, without limitation, the risks identified under the caption “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report, and any of those made in our other reports filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

(1) ORGANIZATION

 

Nature of Business - Palatin Technologies, Inc. (“Palatin” or the “Company”) is a biopharmaceutical company developing first-in-class medicines based on molecules that modulate the activity of the melanocortin receptor (“MCR”) system. The Company’s product candidates are targeted, receptor-specific therapeutics for the treatment of diseases with significant unmet medical need and commercial potential.

 

Melanocortin Receptor System. The MCR system has effects on food intake, metabolism, sexual function, inflammation, and immune system responses. There are five melanocortin receptors, MC1R through MC5R. Modulation of these receptors, through use of receptor-specific agonists, which activate receptor function, or receptor-specific antagonists, which block receptor function, can have significant pharmacological effects.

 

The Company’s product development activities focus primarily on use of MC4R agonists for treatment of obesity, with a primary focus on rare neuroendocrine diseases. The Company is developing MC4R selective long-acting peptide agonists and small molecule agonists with potential utility in obesity and metabolic-related disorders, rare MC4R pathway diseases, such as hypothalamic obesity, Prader-Willi syndrome, Bardet-Biedl syndrome, and other orphan indications.

 

The Company is also developing, dependent on resources for development activities, MCR agonist products with potential to treat ocular diseases and inflammatory and autoimmune diseases, such as uveitis, and inflammatory bowel disease. A product candidate MC1R agonist for treatment of dry eye disease, known as keratoconjunctivitis sicca, has been licensed to a third party, and a family of MCR compounds for treatment of retinal diseases has been licensed to Boehringer Ingelheim. The Company believes that the MCR agonist peptides in development have broad anti-inflammatory effects and appear to utilize mechanisms engaged by the endogenous melanocortin system in regulation of the immune system and resolution of inflammatory responses.

 

The Company’s prior commercial product, Vyleesi®, was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) in June 2019 for the treatment of hypoactive sexual desire disorder (“HSDD”) in premenopausal women. Vyleesi was initially licensed to AMAG Pharmaceuticals, Inc. in January 2017, terminated in July 2020, and subsequently sold to Cosette Pharmaceuticals Inc. (“Cosette”) in December 2023.

 

Reverse Stock Split - On August 11, 2025, a reverse stock split of 1-for-50 of issued and outstanding common stock was made effective by the Company. Retroactive effect for the reverse stock split was made to the Company’s outstanding common stock, stock options, common stock warrants, and preferred stock conversion features, including all share and per-share data, for all periods presented in the consolidated financial statements.

 

Business Risks and Liquidity – The Company has incurred operating losses and negative cash flows from operations since inception and will need additional funding to complete its planned product development efforts. As shown in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company had an accumulated deficit as of March 31, 2026, of $463,093,213 and a net loss for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2026, of $1,432,987 and $4,019,314, respectively. The Company anticipates incurring significant expenses in the future as a result of spending on its development programs and will require substantial additional financing or revenues to continue to fund its planned activities. To achieve sustained profitability, if ever, the Company, alone or with others, must successfully develop and commercialize its technologies and proposed products, conduct successful preclinical studies and clinical trials, obtain required regulatory approvals, and successfully manufacture and market such technologies and proposed products. The time required to achieve sustained profitability is highly uncertain, and the Company may never be able to achieve profitability on a sustained basis, if at all.

 

As of March 31, 2026, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents were $10,159,494, other receivables were $2,167,215 and current liabilities were $2,536,002. Management intends to utilize existing capital resources for general corporate purposes and working capital, including preclinical and clinical development of the Company’s MCR programs.

 

The Company follows the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 205-40, Presentation of Financial Statements — Going Concern, which requires management to assess the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for one year after the date the consolidated financial statements are issued. While the Company has raised funding in the past, the ability to raise funding in future periods is not considered probable, as defined under the accounting standards. As such, under the requirements of ASC 205-40, management may not consider the potential for future funding in their assessment of the Company’s ability to meet its obligations for the next year.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

Based on the Company’s current operating and development plans, including the ability to reduce or delay operating expenses that are within management’s control, the Company expects that its existing cash and cash equivalents as of the date of this filing will be sufficient to enable it to fund operations through the next twelve months following the issuance of the financial statements.

 

Concentrations – Concentrations in the Company’s assets and operations subject it to certain related risks. Financial instruments that subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk primarily consist of cash, cash equivalents, and other receivables. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents are primarily invested in one investment account sponsored by a large financial institution. The Company’s revenue is generated by one customer.

 

(2) BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnote disclosures required to be presented for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, these consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for fair presentation. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2026, may not necessarily be indicative of the results of operations expected for the full fiscal year.

 

The accompanying unaudited 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 year ended June 30, 2025, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), which includes consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2025 and 2024 and for the fiscal years then ended.

 

(3) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Principles of Consolidation – The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned inactive subsidiary. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Use of Estimates – The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. 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 the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Cash, Cash Equivalents – Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, cash in banks, and all highly liquid investments with a purchased maturity of less than three months. Cash equivalents consisted of $9,720,869 and $2,286,603 in a money market account at March 31, 2026 and June 30, 2025, respectively.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments – The Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of cash equivalents, and other receivables, and accounts payable. Management believes that the carrying values of cash equivalents, other receivables, and accounts payable are representative of their respective fair values based on the short-term nature of these instruments.

 

Credit Risk – Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents. Total cash and cash equivalents balances have exceeded balances insured by the Federal Depository Insurance Company.

 

Segment Information – The Chief Operating Decision Maker (the “CODM”) assesses performance for its segment based on net loss, which is reported on the consolidated statements of operations. The measure of segment assets is reported on the balance sheet as total assets. The CODM uses cash forecast models in deciding how to invest into the segment. The CODM analyzes the Company’s net loss and monitors budget versus actual results to assess the performance of the Company.

 

Property and Equipment – Property and equipment consist of office and laboratory equipment, office furniture, and leasehold improvements and includes assets acquired under finance leases. Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is recognized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, generally five years for laboratory and computer equipment, seven years for office furniture and equipment, and the lesser of the term of the lease or the useful life for leasehold improvements. Amortization of assets acquired under finance leases is included in depreciation expense. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred while expenditures that extend the useful life of an asset are capitalized.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets – The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable. To determine recoverability of a long-lived asset, management evaluates whether the estimated future undiscounted net cash flows from the asset are less than its carrying amount. If impairment is indicated, the long-lived asset would be written down to fair value. Fair value is determined by an evaluation of available price information at which assets could be bought or sold, including quoted market prices, if available, or the present value of the estimated future cash flows based on reasonable and supportable assumptions.

 

Leases – At lease inception, the Company determines whether an arrangement is or contains a lease. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, short-term operating lease liabilities, and long-term operating lease liabilities in the consolidated financial statements. Finance leases are included in property and equipment for ROU assets, short-term finance lease liabilities, and long-term finance lease liabilities in the consolidated financial statements. ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use leased assets over the term of the lease. Lease liabilities represent the Company’s contractual obligation to make lease payments over the lease term. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the commencement date. The lease liability is measured as the present value of the lease payments over the lease term. The Company uses the rate implicit in the lease if it is determinable. When the rate implicit in the lease is not determinable, the Company uses an estimate based on a hypothetical rate provided by a third party as the Company currently does not have issued debt. Lease terms may include renewal or extension options to the extent they are reasonably certain to be exercised. The assessment of whether renewal or extension options are reasonably certain to be exercised is made at lease commencement. Factors considered in determining whether an option is reasonably certain of exercise include, but are not limited to, the value of any leasehold improvements, the value of renewal rates compared to market rates, and the presence of factors that would cause incremental costs to the Company if the option were not exercised.

 

The ROU asset is initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for lease payments made at or before the lease commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred less any lease incentives received. For operating leases, the ROU asset is subsequently measured throughout the lease term at the carrying amount of the lease liability, plus initial direct costs, plus (minus) any prepaid (accrued) lease payments, less the unamortized balance of lease incentives received. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. For finance leases, the ROU asset is subsequently amortized using the straight-line method from the lease commencement date to the earlier of the end of its useful life or the end of the lease term unless the lease transfers ownership of the underlying asset to the Company or the Company is reasonably certain to exercise an option to purchase the underlying asset. In those cases, the ROU asset is amortized over the useful life of the underlying asset. Amortization of the ROU asset is recognized and presented as an operating expense separately from interest expense on the lease liability.

 

The Company has elected not to recognize an ROU asset and obligation for leases with an initial term of twelve months or less. The expense associated with short-term leases is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the statements of operations. To the extent a lease arrangement includes both lease and non-lease components, the Company has elected to account for the components as a single lease component.

 

On December 11, 2025, the Company entered into an office lease agreement at 301 Carnegie Center Drive in Princeton, New Jersey. In connection with the execution of the lease, the Company recorded a right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability of $248,718 in accordance with ASC 842.

 

Revenue Recognition – For licenses of intellectual property, the Company assesses at contract inception whether the intellectual property is distinct from other performance obligations identified in the arrangement. If the licensing of intellectual property is determined to be distinct, revenue is recognized for non-refundable, upfront license fees when the license is transferred to the customer, and the customer can use and benefit from the license. If the licensing of intellectual property is determined not to be distinct, then the license is bundled with other promises in the arrangement into one performance obligation. The Company determines if the bundled performance obligation is satisfied over time or at a point in time. If the Company concludes that the non-refundable, upfront license fees will be recognized over time, the Company assesses the appropriate method of measuring proportional performance.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

Research, development and regulatory milestone payments are considered variable consideration subject to constraint and excluded from the transaction price until it is probable that a significant reversal would not occur. At each reporting period, the Company will assess whether there still is significant uncertainty associated with the variable consideration and revenue relating to the milestones recorded in the period where the significant uncertainty is resolved.

 

Sales-based royalty and milestone payments resulting from customer contracts solely or predominately for the license of intellectual property will only be recognized upon occurrence of the underlying sale or achievement of the sales milestone in the future and such sales-based royalties and milestone payments will be recognized in the same period earned.

 

The Company recognizes revenue for research and development services under customer agreements as the services are performed. The Company records these services as revenue and not as a reduction of research and development expenses as the Company is the principal in the research and development activities based upon its control of such activities, which are part of its ordinary activities.

 

Research and Development Costs – The costs of research and development activities are charged to expense as incurred, including the cost of equipment for which there is no alternative future use.

 

Accrued Expenses Third parties perform a significant portion of the Company’s development activities. The Company reviews the activities performed under all contracts each quarter and accrues expenses and the amount of any reimbursement to be received from its collaborators based upon the estimated amount of work completed considering milestones achieved. Estimating the value or stage of completion of certain services requires judgment based on available information. If the Company does not identify services performed for it and is not billed by the service provider, or if it underestimates or overestimates the value of services performed as of a given date, reported expenses will be understated or overstated.

 

Stock-Based Compensation The Company charges to expense the fair value of stock options and other equity awards granted to employees and nonemployees for services. Compensation costs for stock-based awards with time-based vesting are determined using the quoted market price of the Company’s common stock on the grant date or for stock options, the value determined utilizing the Black-Scholes option pricing model, and are recognized on a straight-line basis, while awards containing a market condition are valued using multifactor Monte Carlo simulations and are recognized over the derived service period. Compensation costs for awards containing a performance condition are determined using the quoted price of the Company’s common stock on the grant date or for stock options, the value determined utilizing the Black-Scholes option pricing model and are recognized based on the probability of achievement of the performance condition over the service period. Forfeitures are recognized as they occur.

 

Income Taxes – The Company and its subsidiary file consolidated federal and separate-company state income tax returns. Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences or operating loss and tax credit carryforwards are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the period that includes the enactment date. The Company has recorded and continues to maintain a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets based on the history of losses incurred and lack of experience projecting future product revenue and sales-based royalty and milestone payments.

 

Net Loss per Common Share – Basic and diluted loss per common share (“EPS”) are calculated in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 260, Earnings per Share.

PALATIN TECHNOLOGIES, INC.

and Subsidiary

 

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, no additional common shares were added to the computation of diluted EPS because to do so would have been anti-dilutive. The potential number of common shares excluded from diluted EPS during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 were 8,575,102 and 354,982, respectively.

 

Included in the weighted average common shares used in computing basic and diluted net loss per common share are 5,448 and 5,594 vested restricted stock units that had not been issued as of March 31, 2026 and 2025 due to a provision in the restricted stock unit agreements to delay delivery.

 

Translation of foreign currencies – Transactions denominated in currencies other than the Company’s functional currency (U.S. Dollar) are recorded based on exchange rates at the time such transactions arise. Subsequent changes in exchange rates result in transaction gains and losses, which are reflected in the consolidated statements of operations as unrealized (based on the applicable period-end exchange rate) or realized upon settlement of the transactions.

 

(4) New Accounting Pronouncements

 

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 enhances financial reporting by requiring additional information about specific expense categories in the notes to financial statements at interim and annual reporting periods. The guidance is effective for public business entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently planning to adopt this guidance when effective. The Company is assessing the impact of the adoption on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and accompanying footnotes but expects the impact will be enhanced disclosures related to income statement expenses.

 

(5) AGREEMENT WITH BOEHRINGER INGLEHEIM

 

On August 14, 2025, the Company entered into a Research Collaboration, License and Patent Assignment Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Boehringer Ingelheim International GmbH (“Boehringer Ingelheim” or “BI”) to research, develop, and commercialize proprietary melanocortin receptor-targeted compounds for the treatment of retinal diseases.

 

Under the terms of the Agreement, BI agreed to pay the Company a non-refundable upfront payment, success-based development, regulatory, and commercial milestone payments of up to €280,000,000 (approximately $328,000,000), and tiered royalties on net sales of licensed products, if commercialized. The Company assigned certain patent rights and granted BI a license to related intellectual property (the “Assigned Patents”). The Company will also perform research and development services in collaboration with BI for a period of up to 2.5 years, with all approved costs reimbursed by BI. The Company retains an exclusive, fully paid-up license to PL9643 for the treatment of dry eye disease.

 

The Company evaluated the Agreement under ASC 606 and concluded that it contains two distinct performance obligations: (i) the assignment of patents and license rights; and (ii) the provision of research and development services. The license and patent assignment represent functional intellectual property that is distinct from the research and development services, as BI can benefit from the license independently of the services. The transaction price consists of fixed consideration and variable consideration. Variable consideration associated with future milestone payments is fully constrained, as the Company cannot conclude that it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur due to the inherent uncertainty of milestone achievement. The Company allocated the transaction price to the performance obligations based on their relative standalone selling prices. The amount allocated to the license and patent assignment was recognized at a point in time upon transfer of control to BI.

 

During the quarter ended September 30, 2025, the Company recognized revenue of €7,500,000 (approximately $8,830,000), consisting of (i) the non-refundable upfront payment, which was recognized upon transfer of control of the license and patent assignment performance obligation, and (ii) the first research milestone payment, which was recognized in the period the milestone was achieved, as the associated uncertainty was resolved.

 

Reimbursements for research and development services are recognized as the services are performed .

 

Foreign withholding taxes of $1,674,245 related to the upfront and milestone payments are recorded in other receivables as of March 31, 2026, and are expected to be refunded during fiscal year ending June 30, 2026.

(6) AGREEMENT WITH ALTANISPAC

 

On January 8, 2026, the Company entered into a sublicense agreement (the “Altanispac Agreement”) with Altanispac Labs, LLC (“Altanispac”), granting an exclusive license to PL9643, an MC1R agonist for the treatment of dry eye disease.

 

Under the terms of the Altanispac Agreement, Altanispac agreed to pay the Company a non-refundable upfront payment in the form of non-cash debt cancellation, plus future payments based on the sublicensing or the sale of PL9643, and tiered royalties on net sales of licensed products, if commercialized. The Company assigned certain patent rights and granted Altanispac a license to related intellectual property.

 

The Company evaluated the Altanispac Agreement under ASC 606 and concluded that it contains one distinct performance obligation, the license of functional intellectual property. The transaction price consists of fixed consideration and variable consideration. Variable consideration associated with future payments is fully constrained, as the Company cannot conclude that it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur due to the inherent uncertainty of achievement. Control of the intellectual property was transferred to Altanispac at contract inception, and accordingly, the Company recognized $3,751,122 as license revenue in the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three months ended March 31, 2026. The $3,751,122 of license revenue was received in the form of non-cash debt cancellation. The cancelled debt was previously recorded in current liabilities as of December 31, 2025.

 

(7) RELEASE AND SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT

 

On June 5, 2025, the Company entered into a Release and Settlement Agreement (the “Settlement Agreement”) with Cosette pursuant to which the Cosette resolved all outstanding obligations and commercialization covenants related to certain sales-based milestone payments and inventory purchase commitments by remitting a single lump sum payment of $630,000 and the assumption of outstanding manufacturing and supply purchase commitments, with the Company retaining the right to receive 20% of a $3,000,000 milestone payment based on the first commercial sale in Korea, in full satisfaction and release of all such future obligations. As a result, the Company recorded a gain on the sale of Vyleesi of $3,130,000 and a gain on inventory purchase commitments of $2,117,900, for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025.

 

(8) PREPAID EXPENSES AND OTHER CURRENT ASSETS

 

Prepaid expenses and other current assets consist of the following:

 


   March 31,   June 30, 
   2026   2025 
Clinical / regulatory costs  $178,032   $24,080 
Insurance premiums   92,951    86,043 
Other   187,556    215,572 
Total prepaid expenses and other current assets  $458,539   $325,695 

 

(9) FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

 

The fair value of cash equivalents is classified using a hierarchy prioritized based on inputs. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs are quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly through market corroboration, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs based on management’s own assumptions used to measure assets and liabilities at fair value. A financial asset’s or liability’s classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

 

The following table provides the assets carried at fair value:

 

   Carrying Value   Quoted prices in
active markets
(Level 1)
   Other quoted/observable inputs (Level 2)   Significant unobservable inputs
(Level 3)

(11) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

Inventory Purchases – The Company had certain supply agreements relating to the Vyleesi product with certain manufacturers and suppliers, including Catalent Belgium S.A (“Catalent”), Ypsomed AG (“Ypsomed”), and Lonza Ltd (“Lonza”), all of which were transferred to Cosette on June 5, 2025, pursuant to the Settlement Agreement with Cosette (see Note 7).

 

Contingencies – The Company accounts for litigation losses in accordance with ASC 450-20, Loss Contingencies. In addition, the Company is subject to other contingencies, such as product liability, arising in the ordinary course of business. Loss contingency provisions are recorded for probable losses when management is able to reasonably estimate the loss. Any outcome upon settlement that deviates from the Company’s best estimate may result in additional expense or in a reduction in expense in a future accounting period. The Company records legal expenses associated with such contingencies as incurred.

 

The Company is involved, from time to time, in various claims and legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of its business.

 

On February 13, 2025, a complaint was filed in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, captioned H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC (“Wainwright”) v. Palatin Technologies, Inc., Case No: 650878/2025. The complaint named the Company as defendant, asserting three causes of action for breach of contract and seeking monetary damages of approximately $1,000,000 and the award of warrants allegedly due. The breach of contract claims relates to engagement agreements entered into by the Company and Wainwright in 2023 and 2024.

 

On November 17, 2025, the Company entered into a settlement and release agreement with Wainwright to resolve all outstanding disputes between the parties. Pursuant to the settlement, the Company paid Wainwright $500,000 in cash which was recorded in G&A and issued warrants to purchase 10,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $10.00 per share, exercisable beginning January 12, 2026, with a two-year term. In addition, the Company repriced 6,007 outstanding Wainwright warrants to an exercise price of $10.00 per share. The parties mutually released all claims, and the Company extinguished all remaining obligations under the prior engagement arrangements.

(13)STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY (DEFICIENCY)

 

Series D Convertible Preferred Stock – On June 10, 2025, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with certain accredited investors (the “Purchasers”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell and issue, in a private placement (the “June 2025 Private Placement”), (i) an aggregate of 3,400 shares of the Company’s newly designated Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.01, with a stated value of $100 per share (the “Series D Preferred Stock”), initially convertible into up to 61,816 shares of the Company’s common stock (such shares underlying the Preferred Stock, the “Conversion Shares”), par value $0.01 per share at an initial conversion price of $5.50, and (ii) Series I common stock purchase warrants (the “Series I Warrants”) to purchase up to an aggregate of 123,636 shares of Common Stock (such shares underlying the Series I Warrants, the “Series I Warrant Shares”). The Series D Preferred Stock and Series I Warrants were sold at a combined offering price of $5.50 per share of Series D Preferred Stock and accompanying Series I Warrants. The Purchasers in the June 2025 Private Placement consisted of Carl Spana, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, Stephen T. Wills, the Company’s Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer, and Chief Operating Officer, John K.A. Prendergast, a director on and Chairperson of the Company’s board of directors, and Alan W. Dunton, a director on the Company’s board of directors, who are all related parties of the Company. The Series D Preferred Stock has a dividend rate of 8% per annum, which when declared may, at the option of the Company, be paid in cash or can accrete and be added to the stated value of the Series D Preferred Stock. Subject to the rights of any class or series of stock senior to or equivalent to the Series D Preferred Stock , the Series D Preferred Stock shall be entitled to be paid in the event of liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, out of available funds and assets, prior and in preference to any distribution on any junior stock, an amount per share equal to the then stated value of the Series D Preferred Stock and declared but unpaid dividends. Each share of Series D Preferred Stock is convertible at any time, at the option of the holder, and such conversion could dilute the value of our common stock to current stockholders and could adversely affect the market price of our common stock. The conversion price decreases if we sell common stock (or equivalents) for a price per share less than the conversion price and is also subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of a merger, reorganization, consolidation, reclassification, stock dividend or stock split which results in an increase or decrease in the number of shares of common stock outstanding. The June 2025 Private Placement closed on June 13, 2025. The gross proceeds from the June 2025 Private Placement, before deducting offering expenses, were $340,000.

The pre-funded warrants are exercisable at a nominal exercise of $0.0001 per share until exercised in full and may not be exercised to the extent such exercise would cause the holder to beneficially own more than 4.99% or 9.99%, as applicable, of the Company’s outstanding common stock. The November 2025 Offering closed on November 12, 2025, and was subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.

 

On May 7, 2025, the Company announced the closing of a reduced previously announced public offering with participation from institutional and accredited investors consisting of 146,479 shares of common stock together with Series F warrants to purchase up to 146,479 shares of common stock (the “Series F Warrants”), Series G warrants to purchase up to 146,479 shares of common stock (the “Series G Warrants”), and Series H warrants to purchase up to 146,479 shares of common stock (the “Series H Warrants”), at a combined public offering price of $7.50 per share of common stock and accompanying warrants (the “May 2025 Offering”).

The Series G Warrants have an exercise price of $7.50 per share, are immediately exercisable and expire on the earlier of (i) the 24-month anniversary of the original issuance date or (ii) the expiration of the FDA Exercise Period (as such term is defined in the Series G Warrant).

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

 

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes to the consolidated financial statements filed as part of this report and the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2025.

 

The following discussion and analysis contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. You are urged to carefully review our description and examples of forward-looking statements included earlier in this Quarterly Report immediately prior to Part I, under the heading “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.” Forward-looking statements are subject to risk that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements. You are urged to carefully review the disclosures we make concerning risks and other factors that may affect our business and operating results, including those made in this Quarterly Report and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2025, as well as any of those made in our other reports filed with the SEC. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements included herein, which speak only as of the date of this document. We do not intend, and undertake no obligation, to publish revised forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this document or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

Our significant accounting policies, which are described in the notes to our consolidated financial statements included in this report and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2025, have not changed during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2026. We believe that our accounting policies and estimates relating to revenue recognition, accrued expenses, purchase commitment liabilities, warrants and stock-based compensation are the most critical.

 

Our Business

 

We are a biopharmaceutical company developing first-in-class medicines based on molecules that modulate the activity of the melanocortin receptor systems. Our product candidates are targeted, receptor-specific therapeutics for the treatment of diseases with significant unmet medical need and commercial potential. Our primary focus is the development of novel ‘next generation’ melanocortin-4 receptor (“MC4R”) agonists for treatment of rare neuroendocrine diseases. We are developing MC4R selective long-acting peptide agonists and small molecule agonists with potential utility in obesity and metabolic-related disorders, rare MC4R pathway diseases, such as hypothalamic obesity, Prader-Willi syndrome, Bardet-Biedl syndrome, and other orphan indications.

 

Melanocortin Receptor System. The melanocortin receptor (“MCR”) system has effects on food intake, metabolism, sexual function, inflammation, and immune system responses. There are five melanocortin receptors, MC1R through MC5R. Modulation of these receptors, through use of receptor-specific agonists, which activate receptor function, or receptor-specific antagonists, which block receptor function, can have significant pharmacological effects.

 

Our prior commercial product, Vyleesi®, was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) in June 2019 and was initially marketed in the United States by AMAG Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“AMAG”) for the treatment of hypoactive sexual desire disorder (“HSDD”) in premenopausal women pursuant to a license agreement for Vyleesi for North America, which was entered into on January 8, 2017 (the “AMAG License Agreement”). The AMAG License Agreement was terminated effective July 24, 2020, and we commenced marketing Vyleesi in North America. Effective December 19, 2023, Cosette Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Cosette”) acquired all rights to Vyleesi. As disclosed in Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, effective June 5, 2025, we entered into a Release and Settlement Agreement with Cosette.

 

In August 2025, as disclosed in Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, we entered into a Research Collaboration, License and Patent Assignment Agreement (the “BI Agreement”) with Boehringer-Ingelheim International GmbH (“Boehringer Ingelheim” or “BI”) to research, develop and commercialize first-in-class melanocortin receptor-targeted compounds we developed for the treatment of retinal diseases.

 

In January 2026, as disclosed in Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, we entered into a sublicense agreement (the “Altanispac Agreement”) with Altanispac Labs, LLC to exclusively license PL9643, a clinical development MC1R agonist for the treatment of dry eye disease.

 

19

 

 

Our non-obesity development activities focus on ocular, gastroenterology, and renal indications. We are actively engaged in discussions with potential partners and licensees that have the financial and operational resources to progress non-obesity products through development, approval and commercialization.

Our Strategy

 

Our strategy is focused on advancing a differentiated portfolio of melanocortin receptor-targeted therapeutics, with an emphasis on MC4R agonists for rare neuroendocrine obesity disorders and other indications with significant unmet medical need. Key elements include:

 

Advancing a focused MC4R pipeline: Maintain a lean, execution-oriented organization to discover, develop, and advance MC4R selective agonists for rare MC4R pathway diseases, including hypothalamic obesity, Prader-Willi syndrome, and Bardet-Biedl syndrome;

 

Leveraging strategic partnerships: Establish and expand collaborations with pharmaceutical and biotechnology partners to support the development, manufacturing, and commercialization of our product candidates, including applications beyond;

 

Disciplined capital strategy: Fund operations through a combination of non-dilutive sources— including cash flows from the licensing and sale of Vyleesi, our collaboration with Boehringer Ingelheim, and other licensing arrangements, supplemented by prudent, opportunistic equity financings, with a focus on capital efficiency and minimizing stockholder dilution; and

 

Driving clinical and regulatory execution: Advance selected product candidates through clinical development and pursue regulatory approvals in targeted indications.

Results of Operations

 

As we continue to advance our development programs and explore commercial opportunities and partners in both U.S. and international markets, we remain attentive to evolving global economic conditions, including uncertainties related to international trade policies, tariffs, and supply chain dynamics. Although these factors have not had a material impact on our operations to date, future changes in trade regulations, tariff structures, or logistical constraints could influence the cost, availability, or timing of materials, services and other components associated with the development of our product candidates and manufacturing capabilities. We continue to monitor these developments closely to maintain operational efficiency and help mitigate potential future impacts.

 

Three and Nine months ended March 31, 2026, Compared to the Three and Nine months ended March 31, 2025:

 

Revenues – For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2026, we recognized $3,920,675 and $12,884,261 in collaboration and license revenue compared to $0 for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2025. The primary increase in collaboration and license revenue consists of $3,751,122 related to the Altanispac Agreement during the three months ended March 31, 2026, and $3,751,122 related to the Altanispac Agreement and $9,133,139 related to the BI Agreement during the nine months ended March 31, 2026.

 

Research and Development – Research and development expenses were $3,517,223 and $10,362,756 for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2026, respectively, compared to $3,755,158 and $12,928,391 for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2025, respectively. The decrease for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the three and nine months ended March 31, 2025, was primarily related to a decrease in spending on our MCR programs.

 

Research and development expenses related to our MCR programs were $2,012,143 and $5,272,845 for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2026, respectively, compared to $1,853,851 and $7,822,953 for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2025, respectively. The increase for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025, was primarily related to an increase in spending on our MCR programs. The decrease for the nine months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the nine months ended March 31, 2025, was primarily related to a decrease in spending on our MCR programs.

 

21

 

 

The amounts of project spending above exclude general research and development spending which was $1,505,080 and 5,089,911 for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2026, respectively, compared to $1,901,307 and $5,105,438 for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2025, respectively. The decrease is primarily attributable to a decrease in compensation-related expenses.

 

Cumulative spending from inception to March 31, 2026, was approximately $311,900,000 on our Vyleesi program and approximately $257,900,000 on all our other programs (which include melanocortin receptor agonists, other discovery programs and terminated programs). Due to various risk factors described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2025, under “Risk Factors,” including the difficulty in currently estimating the costs and timing of future Phase 1 clinical trials and larger-scale Phase 2 and Phase 3 clinical trials for any product under development, we cannot predict with reasonable certainty when, if ever, a program will advance to the next stage of development or be successfully completed, or when, if ever, related net cash inflows will be generated.

 

General and Administrative – General and administrative expenses, which consist mainly of compensation and related costs, were $1,984,446 and $6,769,994 for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2026, respectively, compared to $1,474,019 and $5,176,794 for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2025, respectively. The increase is a result of increased compensation costs and professional fees.

 

Other Income (Expense) – For the three and nine months ended, March 31, 2026 total other income (expense), net was $148,007 and $229,175, respectively. For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2025, total other income (expense), net was $1,757 and $111,634, respectively. The increase was a result of an increase in investment income, offset by a decrease in interest expense and foreign currency translation losses.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Since inception, we have generally incurred net operating losses, primarily related to spending on our research and development programs. We have financed our net operating losses primarily through debt and equity financings and amounts received under collaborative and license agreements.

 

Our product candidates are at various stages of development and will require significant further research, development, and testing and some may never be successfully developed or commercialized. We may experience uncertainties, delays, difficulties, and expenses commonly experienced by early-stage biopharmaceutical companies, which may include unanticipated problems and additional costs relating to:

 

the development and testing of products in animals and humans;

 

product approval or clearance;

 

regulatory compliance;

 

good manufacturing practices (“GMP”) compliance;

 

intellectual property rights;

 

product introduction;

 

marketing, sales, and competition; and

 

obtaining sufficient capital.

 

Failure to enter into or successfully perform under collaboration agreements and obtain timely regulatory approval for our product candidates and indications would impact our ability to generate revenues and could make it more difficult to attract investment capital for funding our operations. Any of these possibilities could materially and adversely affect our operations and require us to curtail or cease certain programs.

 

During the nine months ended March 31, 2026, net cash used in operating activities was $10,843,290 compared to $17,217,595 for the nine months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease was primarily related to collaboration and license revenue recognized during the nine months ended March 31, 2026.

 

During the nine months ended March 31, 2026, net cash used in investing activities was $51,299 which consisted of cash used for the purchase of property and equipment. During the nine months ended March 31, 2025, net cash provided by investing activities was $2,500,000, which consisted of proceeds from the sale of Vyleesi.

 

During the nine months ended March 31, 2026, net cash provided by financing activities was $18,489,818 which consisted of net proceeds $16,910,891 from an equity financing and $1,598,441 of net proceeds from the exercise of warrants, offset by $19,514 for payment of withholding taxes related to restricted stock units. During the nine months ended March 31, 2025, net cash provided by financing activities was $7,710,261, which consisted of $3,398,237 of net proceeds from the exercise of warrants and 4,457,520 from the sale of common stock, offset by $99,482 for payment of withholding taxes related to restricted stock units and $46,014 for payment of finance lease obligations.

 

22

 

 

We have incurred cumulative negative cash flows from operations since our inception and have expended substantial funds to advance our product development efforts. Continued operations are dependent upon our ability to complete equity or debt financing activities and to enter into additional licensing or collaboration arrangements. As of March 31, 2026, our cash and cash equivalents were $10,159,494, other receivables were $2,167,215 and our current liabilities were $2,536,002.

 

There have been no material changes outside the ordinary course of business to our contractual obligations and commitments, as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2025.

 

We intend to utilize existing capital resources for general corporate purposes and working capital requirements, including preclinical and clinical development of our MC4R programs for the treatment of rare MC4R pathway diseases.

 

Based on our current operating and development plans, including the ability to reduce or delay operating expenses that are within management’s control, we expect that existing cash and cash equivalents as of the date of this filing will be sufficient to enable us to fund operations through the next twelve months following the issuance of the financial statements.

 

We will need additional funding to complete required clinical trials for our product candidates and development programs and, if those clinical trials are successful (which we cannot predict), to complete submission of required regulatory applications to the FDA. However, current economic conditions (including current economic uncertainty, high interest rates, rising inflation, tariffs, trade restrictions, and the potential for local and/or global economic recession) may negatively impact our operations, including possible effects on our financial condition, ability to access the capital markets on attractive terms or at all, liquidity, operations, suppliers, industry, and workforce. We will continue to evaluate the impact that these events could have on the operations, financial position, and the results of operations and cash flows during fiscal year 2026 and beyond.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

 

Not required to be provided by smaller reporting companies.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

 

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e), as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2026.

 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2026, that have materially affected, or that are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

 

We may be involved, from time to time, in various claims and legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of our business.

 

We are not currently a party to any claim or legal proceeding.

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

 

This report and other documents we file with the SEC contain forward-looking statements that are based on current expectations, estimates, forecasts and projections about us, our future performance, our business, our beliefs, and our management’s assumptions. These statements are not guarantees of future performance, and they involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties facing our business.

 

Other than set forth below, there have been no material changes to our risk factors disclosed in Part I, Item 1A, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2025.

 

Inadequate funding for the FDA, the SEC and other U.S. government agencies leading to government shut downs or other disruptions to these agencies’ staffing and operations could prevent new products and services from being developed or commercialized in a timely manner or otherwise prevent those agencies from performing normal business functions on which the operation of our business may rely, which could negatively impact our operations.

 

The ability of the FDA to review and approve new products can be affected by a variety of factors, including government funding, ability to hire and retain key personnel and accept the payment of user fees, and statutory, regulatory and policy changes. Average review times at the agency have fluctuated in recent years as a result. In addition, government funding of the SEC, and other government agencies on which our operations may rely, including those that fund research and development activities is subject to the political process, which is inherently fluid and unpredictable.

 

Disruptions at the FDA and other agencies may also slow the time necessary for new drugs to be reviewed and/or approved by necessary government agencies, which would adversely affect our business. For example, in recent years, the U.S. government shut down and certain regulatory agencies, such as the FDA and the SEC, had to furlough critical employees and stop critical activities. If a prolonged government shutdown continues to occur, it could significantly impact the ability of the FDA to timely review and process our regulatory submissions, which could have a material adverse effect on our business. Further, future government shutdowns could impact our ability to access the public markets and obtain necessary capital in order to properly capitalize and continue our operations.

 

If a prolonged government shutdown occurs, or if global health concerns prevent the FDA or other regulatory authorities from conducting their regular inspections, reviews, or other regulatory activities, it could significantly impact the ability of the FDA or other regulatory authorities to timely review and process our regulatory submissions, which could have a material adverse effect on our business.

 

Separately, the risk factor from our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2025, titled “Our common stock has been suspended from trading on the NYSE American. If we fail to regain compliance with the NYSE American listing standards, our common stock may be delisted from the NYSE American”, is no longer a material risk to the Company, as the Company resumed trading on the NYSE American effective November 12, 2025.

 

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

 

As disclosed in the table below, 3 shares of common stock were withheld during the three months ended March 31, 2026, at the direction of the employees and as permitted under the 2011 Stock Incentive Plan in order to pay the minimum amount of tax liability owed by the employees from the vesting of previously issued restricted stock units:

FAQ

How much revenue did Palatin Technologies (PTN) report for the quarter ended March 31, 2026?

Palatin reported collaboration and license revenue of $3,920,675 for the quarter ended March 31, 2026. This compares to no revenue in the same quarter of 2025 and reflects contributions from its Boehringer Ingelheim collaboration and the Altanispac PL9643 sublicense.

What was Palatin Technologies’ net loss for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2026?

Palatin reported a net loss of $1,432,987 for the quarter and $4,019,314 for the nine months ended March 31, 2026. Both figures improved significantly versus prior-year periods as new collaboration and license revenue partially offset ongoing operating expenses.

What is Palatin Technologies’ cash position and equity as of March 31, 2026?

As of March 31, 2026, Palatin held $10,159,494 in cash and cash equivalents and reported total stockholders’ equity of $10,591,878. This marks a shift from a stockholders’ deficiency at June 30, 2025, aided by capital raises and licensing revenue.

Which major licensing and collaboration deals affected PTN’s 2026 year-to-date results?

Results reflect revenue from a Research Collaboration, License and Patent Assignment Agreement with Boehringer Ingelheim and a $3,751,122 PL9643 sublicense to Altanispac Labs. These agreements generated upfront and milestone-related license revenue recorded in the 2026 interim period.

How is Palatin Technologies funding its operations and development programs?

Palatin is funding operations through a mix of collaboration revenue and equity financings. In 2025 it completed the February, May and November offerings, including a November public offering with gross proceeds of about $18.2 million, plus ongoing warrant exercises.

Does Palatin Technologies expect its current cash to cover near-term operations?

Management states that existing cash and cash equivalents of $10.16 million, plus cost controls, are expected to fund operations for the next twelve months from the financial statement issuance date. However, the company still anticipates needing significant additional financing longer term.
