1.Organization
Pulmatrix, Inc. (“Pulmatrix” or the “Company”) was incorporated in 2013 as a Delaware corporation. The Company is a biopharmaceutical company that has focused on the development of a novel inhaled therapeutic products intended to prevent and treat migraine and respiratory diseases with important unmet medical needs using its patented iSPERSE™ technology. The Company’s proprietary dry powder delivery platform, iSPERSE™, is engineered to deliver small, dense particles with highly efficient dispersibility and delivery to the airways, which can be used with an array of dry powder inhaler technologies and can be formulated with a variety of drug substances.
Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization
On November 13, 2024, Pulmatrix and Cullgen Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Cullgen”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization, as amended by Amendment No. 1 thereto on April 7, 2025 (the “Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other matters, PCL Merger Sub, Inc., a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Pulmatrix (“Merger Sub”), will merge with and into Cullgen, with Cullgen surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of Pulmatrix, and the surviving corporation of the merger (the “Merger”).
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, prior to the closing of the Merger (the “Closing”), Pulmatrix may declare a cash dividend to the pre-Merger Pulmatrix stockholders equal in the aggregate to Pulmatrix’s reasonable, good faith approximation of the amount by which Pulmatrix’s net cash (as determined pursuant to the Merger Agreement) will exceed $2.5 million, subject to certain adjustments and limitations (such excess amount, the “Cash Dividend”).
Subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, at the Closing, (a) each then-outstanding share of Cullgen common stock other than dissenting shares, will be converted into the right to receive a number of shares of Pulmatrix common stock calculated in accordance with the Merger Agreement (the “Exchange Ratio”), (b) each then-outstanding share of Cullgen preferred stock, other than dissenting shares, will be converted into the right to receive a number of shares of Pulmatrix common stock equal to the number of shares of Cullgen common stock issuable upon conversion of each share of Cullgen preferred stock multiplied by the Exchange Ratio and (c) each then-outstanding option to purchase Cullgen common stock, whether vested or unvested, will be assumed by Pulmatrix, subject to adjustment to reflect the Exchange Ratio as set forth in the Merger Agreement.
In connection with the Merger: (i) each share of Pulmatrix common stock that is issued and outstanding at the Effective Time (as defined below) of the Merger will remain issued and outstanding and such shares, subject to the proposed Pulmatrix reverse stock split, will be unaffected by the Merger; (ii) each option to acquire shares of Pulmatrix common stock outstanding but then not vested or exercisable shall be accelerated in full; (iii) each option to acquire shares of Pulmatrix common stock with an exercise price per share greater than $10.00 per share shall be cancelled for no consideration; (iv) each option to acquire shares of Pulmatrix common stock with an exercise price less than or equal to the Pulmatrix Closing Price (as defined herein) will be converted into the right to receive the number of shares underlying such Pulmatrix option, reduced as set forth in the Merger Agreement; (v) each option to acquire shares of Pulmatrix common stock with an exercise price greater than the volume weighted average closing trading price of a share of Parent Common Stock on Nasdaq for the five (5) consecutive trading days ending three (3) trading days immediately prior to the Closing Date as reported by Bloomberg L.P. (the “Pulmatrix Closing Price”), but less than $10.00 per share, will remain outstanding; and (vi) each warrant to acquire shares of Pulmatrix common stock that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time of the Merger shall survive the Closing and remain outstanding in accordance with its terms; provided that the holders of any such warrants which remain outstanding following closing may elect to require Pulmatrix to pay such holders cash in exchange for the termination of the remaining unexercised portion of such warrants if contemplated by the terms of such warrants.
Under the Exchange Ratio formula in the Merger Agreement, upon the Closing, on a pro forma basis and based upon the number of shares of Pulmatrix common stock expected to be issued in the Merger, pre-Merger Cullgen stockholders will own approximately 96.4% of the combined company and pre-Merger Pulmatrix stockholders will own approximately 3.6% of the combined company on a fully-diluted basis (excluding out-of-the-money options and warrants and any shares reserved for future grants under Pulmatrix’s equity incentive plans). Under certain circumstances further described in the Merger Agreement, the ownership percentages may be adjusted upward or downward based on Pulmatrix’s net cash at the Closing.
The Exchange Ratio assumes (i) a valuation for Pulmatrix of $10.5 million (comprised of $8 million in enterprise value and $2.5 million in cash) and (ii) a valuation for Cullgen of $280.0 million. The Exchange Ratio is also based on the relative capitalization of each of Pulmatrix and Cullgen, for which, for the purposes of calculating the Exchange Ratio, the shares of Pulmatrix common stock underlying Pulmatrix’s in-the-money stock options outstanding immediately prior to the time of the Closing (the “Effective Time”), as adjusted to take into account the Cash Dividend will be deemed outstanding, and all shares of Cullgen common stock underlying outstanding Cullgen’s stock options will be deemed outstanding, subject to certain exceptions as set forth in the Merger Agreement.
The closing of the Merger is subject to approval by Pulmatrix stockholders and Cullgen stockholders, as well as other customary closing conditions, including the effectiveness of a registration statement filed with the SEC (defined below) in connection with the transaction, Nasdaq’s approval of the listing of the shares of Pulmatrix common stock to be issued in connection with the Merger, and approval from the China Security Regulatory Commission. If the Merger is completed, the business of Cullgen will continue as the business of the combined company.
The Merger Agreement contains certain termination rights of each of Pulmatrix and Cullgen. Upon termination of the Merger Agreement under specified circumstances, Pulmatrix may be required to pay Cullgen a termination fee of $420,000, and in certain other circumstances, Cullgen may be required to pay Pulmatrix a termination fee of either $2,800,000 or $8,400,000. At the Effective Time, the board of directors of Pulmatrix is expected to consist of six members, one of which will be a director of Pulmatrix, as designated by Cullgen, and the remainder of which will be designated by Cullgen.
Concurrent with the Merger, the Company will seek to monetize its intellectual property, including iSPERSE™ and its clinical assets (the “Asset Sale”). If Pulmatrix is unable to sell its historical assets and operations, Pulmatrix may not have enough net cash to be able to declare the Cash Dividend.
The Company’s future operations are highly dependent on the success of the Merger and there can be no assurances that the Merger will be successfully consummated. There can be no assurance that the strategic review process or any transaction relating to a specific asset, including the Merger and any Asset Sale, will result in the Company pursuing such a transaction, or that any transactions, if pursued, will be completed on terms favorable to Pulmatrix and its stockholders in the existing Pulmatrix entity or any possible entity that results from a combination of entities. If the strategic review process is unsuccessful, and if the Merger is not consummated, the Company’s board of directors may decide to pursue a dissolution and liquidation.
2.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Accounting Standards
Basis of Presentation
The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company included herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted from this report, as is permitted by such rules and regulations. Accordingly, these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, filed with the SEC on March 21, 2025 (the “Annual Report”).
The financial information as of March 31, 2025, and for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, is unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (including those which are normal and recurring) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the interim financial information have been included. The balance sheet data as of December 31, 2024 was derived from audited consolidated financial statements. The results of the Company’s operations for any interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other interim period or for a full fiscal year.
The Company’s future operations are highly dependent on the success of the Merger and there can be no assurances that the Merger will be successfully consummated. If the Merger is not consummated, the Company believes that its cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2025, would be adequate to fund its operating expenses for at least twelve months from the date these condensed consolidated financial statements are issued. However, in order to continue development of its programs, the Company would need to secure substantial additional funding in the future, from one or more equity or debt financings, collaborations, or other sources. Additional funding may not be available to the Company on acceptable terms, or at all. The Company’s board of directors may also decide to pursue a dissolution and liquidation in lieu of continuing program development.
Should the Company continue development of its product candidates, the Company would be subject to risks and uncertainties. The ongoing research and development activities will be subject to extensive regulation by numerous governmental authorities in the United States. Prior to marketing in the United States, any drug developed by the Company must undergo rigorous preclinical and clinical testing and an extensive regulatory approval process implemented by the United States Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) under the Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act. The Company has limited experience in conducting and managing the preclinical and clinical testing necessary to obtain regulatory approval. There can be no assurance that the Company will not encounter problems in the clinical trials that will cause the Company or the FDA to delay or suspend clinical trials.
The Company’s success in developing its product candidates would depend in part on its ability to obtain patents and product license rights, maintain trade secrets, and operate without infringing on the property rights of others, both in the United States and other countries. There can be no assurance that patents issued to or licensed by the Company will not be challenged, invalidated, circumvented, or that the rights granted thereunder will provide proprietary protection or competitive advantages to the Company.
Use of Estimates
In preparing the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Due to inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual results may differ from these estimates. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates and assumptions.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
Cash and cash equivalents is a financial instrument that potentially subjects the Company to concentrations of credit risk. For all periods presented, substantially all of the Company’s cash was deposited in accounts at a single financial institution that management believes is creditworthy, and the Company has not incurred any losses to date. The Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of default by this financial institution for amounts in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limits.
For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company recognized no revenue. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, revenue from one customer accounted for 96% of revenue recognized in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. As of March 31, 2025, one customer accounted for 100% of accounts receivable. As of December 31, 2024, there were no amounts included within the balance of accounts receivable.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The Company’s significant accounting policies are described in Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Accounting Standards, in the Annual Report. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company did not make any changes to its significant accounting policies.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) or other standard setting bodies that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. The Company did not adopt any new accounting pronouncements during the three months ended March 31, 2025, that had a material effect on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”). The guidance in ASU 2023-09 improves the transparency of income tax disclosures by greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. ASU 2023-09 is effective for the Company for the annual period ending December 31, 2025. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption may have on its annual income tax disclosures in its consolidated financial statements.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“ASU 2024-03”). The guidance in ASU 2024-03 requires disclosure about the types of costs and expenses included in certain expense captions presented on the income statement. The new disclosure requirements are effective for the Company’s annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that adoption of ASU 2024-03 may have on its consolidated financial statements.
As of March 31, 2025, there are no other new, or existing recently issued, accounting pronouncements that are of significance, or potential significance, that impact the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Schedule of Accrued Expenses and Other Current Liabilities
5.Common Stock
In May 2021, the Company entered into an At-The-Market Sales Agreement (the “Sales Agreement”) with H.C. Wainwright and Co., LLC (“HCW”) to act as the Company’s sales agent with respect to the issuance and sale of up to $20.0 million of the Company’s shares of common stock, from time to time in an at-the-market public offering (the “ATM Offering”). Upon filing of the Annual Report, the Company continued to be subject to General Instruction I.B.6 of Form S-3, pursuant to which in no event will the Company sell its common stock in a registered primary offering using Form S-3 with a value exceeding more than one-third of its public float in any 12 calendar month period so long as its public float remains below $75,000,000. Therefore, the amount that the Company may be able to be raise using the ATM Offering will be significantly less than $20,000,000, until such time as the Company’s public float held by non-affiliates exceeds $75,000,000.
Sales of common stock under the Sales Agreement are made pursuant to an effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3, which was filed with the SEC on May 17, 2024, and subsequently declared effective on May 30, 2024 (File No. 333-279491), and a related prospectus. HCW acts as the Company’s sales agent on a commercially reasonable efforts basis, consistent with its normal trading and sales practices and applicable state and federal laws, rules and regulations and the rules of The Nasdaq Capital Market. If expressly authorized by the Company, HCW may also sell the Company’s common stock in privately negotiated transactions. There is no specific date on which the ATM Offering will end, there are no minimum sale requirements and there are no arrangements to place any of the proceeds of the ATM Offering in an escrow, trust or similar account. HCW is entitled to compensation at a fixed commission rate of 3.0% of the gross proceeds from the sale of the Company’s common stock pursuant to the Sales Agreement.
During the three months ended March 31, 2025, and 2024, no shares of the Company’s common stock were sold under the Sales Agreement.
6.Warrants
As of December 31, 2024, there were warrants outstanding to purchase 535,830 shares of common stock with a contingent cash redemption feature requiring liability classification with an aggregate fair value of $67 thousand.
As of March 31, 2025, the Company remeasured the fair value of the warrant liability at $1 thousand and recorded a corresponding gain of $66 thousand in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2025.
There were no warrants issued, exercised or expired during the three months ended March 31, 2025. The following represents a summary of the warrants outstanding and exercisable at March 31, 2025, and the balance sheet classification as of that date:
Schedule of Warrants Outstanding
7.Stock-based Compensation
The Company sponsors the Pulmatrix, Inc. Amended and Restated 2013 Employee, Director and Consultant Equity Incentive Plan (the “Incentive Plan”). As of March 31, 2025, the Incentive Plan provided for the grant of up to 1,001,550 shares of the Company’s common stock, of which 963,666 shares remained available for future grant.
There were no options granted, exercised, forfeited or expired during the three months ended March 31, 2025. The following table summarizes stock options outstanding as of March 31, 2025:

The following table presents total stock-based compensation expense for the three months ended March 31, 2025, and 2024:
Schedule of Stock-based Compensation Expenses
8.Commitments and Contingencies
Research and Development Activities
The Company contracts with various other organizations to conduct research and development activities, including clinical trials. The scope of the services under contracts for research and development activities may be modified and the contracts, subject to certain conditions, may generally be cancelled by the Company upon written notice. In some instances, the contracts, subject to certain conditions, may be cancelled by the third party. As of March 31, 2025, the Company had no material noncancellable commitments.
Legal Proceedings
In the ordinary course of its business, the Company may be involved in various legal proceedings involving contractual and employment relationships, patent or other intellectual property rights, and a variety of other matters. The Company is not aware of any pending legal proceedings that would reasonably be expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
9.Income Taxes
The Company had no income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2025, and 2024 due to operating losses incurred since inception.
Management of the Company evaluated the positive and negative evidence bearing upon the realizability of its deferred tax assets and determined that it is more likely than not that the Company will not recognize the benefits of the deferred tax assets. As a result, a full valuation allowance was recorded as of March 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024.
The Company applies FASB Accounting Standards Codification 740, Income Taxes, for the financial statement recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in income tax returns. Unrecognized tax benefits represent tax positions for which reserves have been established. A full valuation allowance has been provided against the Company’s deferred tax assets, so that the effect of the unrecognized tax benefits is to reduce the gross amount of the deferred tax asset and the corresponding valuation allowance. The Company has no material uncertain tax positions as of March 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024.
10.Net (Loss) Income Per Share
Basic net (loss) income per share is calculated by dividing net (loss) income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted (loss) income per share is calculated by dividing net (loss) income by the weighted-average number common shares outstanding during the period, after taking into consideration any potentially dilutive effects from outstanding stock options or warrants.
Basic and diluted net (loss) income per share were the same for the three months ended March 31, 2025, and 2024, as the effect of potentially dilutive securities would have been anti-dilutive. The following potentially dilutive securities outstanding have been excluded from the computation of diluted weighted-average shares outstanding, because such securities had an anti-dilutive impact:
Schedule of Computation of Anti-Dilutive Weighted-Average Shares Outstanding
11.Segment Reporting
The Company operates in a single reportable segment. The accounting policies of the segment are the same as those applicable to the Company. The measure of segment assets is reported on the balance sheet as total consolidated assets.
The Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) is its chief executive officer, who reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis. The CODM uses net loss to assess financial performance of the Company and allocate resources, in addition to operating forecasts and clinical results.
The Company’s single segment revenue, significant segment expenses, other segment items and net loss are each presented separately on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.
12.Subsequent Events
The Company has completed an evaluation of all subsequent events after the balance sheet date of March 31, 2025, through the date the condensed consolidated financial statements were issued to ensure that the condensed consolidated financial statements include appropriate disclosure of events both recognized in the condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2025, and events which occurred subsequently but were not recognized in the condensed consolidated financial statements.
On April 7, 2025, Cullgen, Pulmatrix and the Merger Subs entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization (“Amendment No. 1”) which, among other things, (i) makes a clarifying amendment to the fractional shares provision in the Merger Agreement and (ii) revises the transaction structure from a two-step merger to a one-step merger, such that the Contemplated Second Merger will no longer occur, and Merger Sub I will merge with and into Cullgen, with Cullgen surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of Pulmatrix and the surviving corporation of the Merger.
The Company has concluded that no other subsequent events have occurred that require disclosure, except as disclosed within the condensed consolidated financial statements.
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is intended to provide a reader of our financial statements with a narrative from the perspective of our management on our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, and certain other factors that may affect our future results. The information set forth below should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as well as the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 21, 2025 (the “Annual Report”). Unless stated otherwise, references in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to “us,” “we,” “our,” or our “Company” and similar terms refer to Pulmatrix, Inc., a Delaware corporation and its subsidiaries.
Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements. All statements other than statements of historical fact contained herein, including statements regarding our business plans or strategies, projected or anticipated benefits or other consequences of our plans or strategies, projected or anticipated benefits from acquisitions to be made by us, or projections involving anticipated revenues, earnings, or other aspects of our operating results, are forward-looking statements. Words such as “anticipates,” “assumes,” “believes,” “can,” “could,” “estimates,” “expects,” “forecasts,” “guides,” “intends,” “is confident that,” “may,” “plans,” “seeks,” “projects,” “targets,” and “would,” and their opposites and similar expressions, as well as statements in future tense, are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements should not be read as a guarantee of future performance or results and may not be accurate indications of when such performance or results will actually be achieved. Forward-looking statements are based on information we have when those statements are made or our management’s good faith belief as of that time with respect to future events and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual performance or results to differ materially from those expressed in or suggested by the forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause such differences include, but are not limited to:
economic and market conditions; and
For a more detailed discussion of these and other risks that may affect our business and that could cause our actual results to differ from those projected in these forward-looking statements, see the risk factors and uncertainties described under the heading “Risk Factors” in Part II, Item 1A of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Overview
Business
We are a biopharmaceutical company that has focused on the development of novel inhaled therapeutic products intended to prevent and treat migraine and respiratory diseases with important unmet medical needs using our patented iSPERSE™ technology. Our proprietary product pipeline includes treatments for central nervous system (“CNS”) disorders such as acute migraine and serious lung diseases such as Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (“COPD”) and allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (“ABPA”). Our product candidates are based on our proprietary engineered dry powder delivery platform, iSPERSE™, which seeks to improve therapeutic delivery to the lungs by optimizing pharmacokinetics and reducing systemic side effects to improve patient outcomes.
We design and develop inhaled therapeutic products based on our proprietary dry powder delivery technology, iSPERSE™, which enables delivery of small or large molecule drugs to the lungs by inhalation for local or systemic applications. The iSPERSE™ powders are engineered to be small, dense particles with highly efficient dispersibility and delivery to airways. iSPERSE™ powders can be used with an array of dry powder inhaler technologies and can be formulated with a broad range of drug substances including small molecules and biologics. We believe the iSPERSE™ dry powder technology offers enhanced drug loading and delivery efficiency that outperforms traditional lactose-blend inhaled dry powder therapies.
We believe the advantages of using the iSPERSE™ technology include reduced total inhaled powder mass, enhanced dosing efficiency, reduced cost of goods, and improved safety and tolerability profiles.
After a comprehensive review of strategic alternatives, including identifying and reviewing potential candidates for a strategic transaction, on November 13, 2024, we entered into the Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization, as amended by Amendment No. 1 (“Amendment No. 1”) thereto on April 7, 2025 (as amended by Amendment No. 1, the “Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other matters, PCL Merger Sub, Inc., our direct wholly owned subsidiary, will merge with and into Cullgen Inc. (“Cullgen”), with Cullgen surviving as our wholly owned subsidiary and the surviving corporation of the merger (the “Merger”). The Merger Agreement was unanimously approved by our board of directors, which resolved to recommend approval of the Merger Agreement to our stockholders.
The closing of the Merger is subject to approval by our stockholders and Cullgen stockholders, as well as other customary closing conditions, including the effectiveness of a registration statement filed with the SEC in connection with the transaction, Nasdaq’s approval of the listing of the shares of our common stock to be issued in connection with the Merger, and approval from the China Security Regulatory Commission. If the Merger is completed, the business of Cullgen will continue as the business of the combined company. We are currently seeking opportunities to monetize our existing clinical assets.
Our future operations are highly dependent on the success of the Merger and there can be no assurances that the Merger will be successfully consummated. There can be no assurance that the strategic review process or any transaction relating to a specific asset, including the Merger and any asset sale, will result in the Company pursuing such a transaction, or that any transactions, if pursued, will be completed on terms favorable to the Company and its stockholders in the existing Pulmatrix entity or any possible entity that results from a combination of entities. If the strategic review process is unsuccessful, and if the Merger is not consummated, the Pulmatrix board of directors may decide to pursue a dissolution and liquidation of the Company.
Our goal has been to develop breakthrough therapeutic products that are safe, convenient, and more effective than the existing therapeutic products for respiratory and other diseases where iSPERSE™ properties are advantageous.
Our current pipeline of clinical assets is aligned to this goal and includes iSPERSE™-based therapeutic candidates, which target the prevention and treatment of a range of diseases, including CNS disorders and pulmonary diseases. These therapeutic candidates include PUR3100 for the treatment of acute migraine, PUR1800 for the treatment of acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (“AECOPD”), and PUR1900 for the treatment of ABPA in patients with asthma and in patients with cystic fibrosis. Each program is enabled by its unique iSPERSE™ formulation designed to achieve specific therapeutic objectives.
In connection with the Merger, we are exploring opportunities to monetize these clinical assets and have paused the development of these product candidates. Continued development of these candidates, if that were to occur, would be contingent on securing additional funding and would require significant expenditures to advance. Thereafter, if development of such product candidates were to be continued and successfully advanced (of which there can be no assurance), it would be necessary to seek and obtain marketing approval to commercialize such product candidates, which could be expected to require the expenditure of significant additional resources and expenses related to regulatory, product sales, medical affairs, marketing, manufacturing and distribution.
Contingent on securing additional funding and continuing development of these candidates, we would expect to continue to incur substantial expenses and operating losses for at least the next several years, as we would:
We developed PUR3100, an iSPERSE™ formulation of DHE in 2020. We completed good laboratory practice (“GLP”) toxicology studies in 2021 and 2022. In 2022, we completed a Phase 1 study designed as a double-blinded trial to assess the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of three dose levels of single doses of inhaled PUR3100 with intravenous (“IV”) placebo, as compared to IV DHE (DHE mesylate injection) with inhaled placebo.
On January 4, 2023, we announced the Phase 1 topline results, indicating that PUR3100 was safe and tolerated with fewer gastrointestinal side effects in all doses compared to IV DHE. PUR3100 showed a five-minute Tmax and Cmax within the targeted therapeutic range for all three doses tested. The Phase 1 study data was presented at the American Headache Society 65th Annual Meeting in June 2023. In May 2024, we announced a peer-reviewed publication of Phase 1 clinical results in the publication Headache: The Journal of Head and Face Pain.
In September 2023, we announced the FDA’s acceptance of an IND application for PUR3100 and receipt of a “study may proceed” letter for a Phase 2 study. The IND includes a Phase 2 clinical protocol where safety and preliminary efficacy of PUR3100 will be investigated in patients with acute migraine.
Based on the rapid systemic exposure in the therapeutic range and the improved side effect profile relative to IV dosing, we believe the PUR3100 formulation of DHE may differentiate from approved DHE products or those in development. If effectiveness is demonstrated, PUR3100 may offer the convenience of being self-administered with a pharmacokinetic profile that may potentially provide rapid onset of action.
Therapeutic Candidates
PUR3100
We are currently exploring opportunities to monetize PUR3100.
In 2020, we developed PUR3100, the iSPERSE™formulation of DHE, for the treatment of acute migraine. Currently DHE is only available as subcutaneous, intravenous infusion or intranasal delivery. If approved for commercialization, PUR3100 has the opportunity to be the first orally inhaled DHE treatment for acute migraine and be an alternative to other acute therapies. Given the oral inhaled route of delivery, PUR3100 is anticipated to provide relief from the rapid onset of migraine symptoms and provide a favorable tolerability profile.
A total of three 14-day GLP toxicology studies have been completed with PUR3100 to support single-dose clinical studies. We are planning to conduct a chronic toxicology study to support long-term dosing. Based on discussions with the FDA, this would complete the non-clinical requirements to support an NDA.
Our interactions with the FDA have indicated that, in addition to Phase 2 and Phase 3 studies, long-term safety should be assessed in a minimum of one hundred patients for six months of dosing and fifty patients for twelve months of dosing. The FDA also confirmed that it will be necessary to perform a safety study administering PUR3100 to otherwise healthy patients with asthma before an NDA is submitted.
On September 26, 2022, we announced the completion of patient dosing in a Phase 1 clinical study, performed in Australia. The study design was a double-dummy, double-blinded trial to assess the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of three dose levels of single doses of inhaled PUR3100 with IV placebo, as compared to IV DHE (DHE mesylate injection) with inhaled placebo. This study may also provide preliminary comparative bioavailability data to support the use of the 505(b)(2) pathway for marketing authorization. Twenty-six healthy subjects were enrolled and each of the four groups contained at least six subjects.
On January 4, 2023, we announced topline results. We presented the Phase 1 study data at the American Headache Society 65th Annual Meeting in June 2023. The study showed that PUR3100 achieved peak exposures in the targeted therapeutic range and time to maximum concentration occurred at five minutes after dosing at all dosing levels. The PUR3100 dose groups also showed a lower incidence of nausea and no vomiting compared to observations of nausea and vomiting in the IV administered DHE dose group.
Based on the rapid systemic exposure in the therapeutic range and the improved side effect profile relative to IV dosing, we believe the PUR3100 formulation of DHE may differentiate from approved DHE products or those known to be in development. If effectiveness is demonstrated, PUR3100 may offer the convenience of being self-administered with a pharmacokinetic profile that may potentially provide rapid onset of action.
In September 2023, we announced that the FDA accepted the PUR3100 IND and the receipt of a “study may proceed” letter for the clinical study: “A Phase 2, Multicenter, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Single Event Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, and Efficacy of PUR3100 (Dihydroergotamine Mesylate Inhalation Powder) in the Acute Treatment of Migraine”. We anticipate that this Phase 2 clinical study will initiate once financing or partnership arrangements have been made.
On May 15, 2024, we announced publication of, “Safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of a single orally inhaled dose of PUR3100, a dry powder formulation of dihydroergotamine versus intravenous dihydroergotamine: A Phase 1 randomized, double-blind study in healthy adults” in the peer-reviewed publicationHeadache: The Journal of Head and Face Pain.
We believe that in this trial, PUR3100 demonstrated the potential for rapid pain relief and improved DHE tolerability versus IV DHE. With a Tmax of 5 minutes and a Cmaxin the therapeutic window for all doses tested, we believe that PUR3100 has the potential to address an unmet need for acute migraine sufferers and we are pursuing different options to advance PUR3100 into a Phase 2 clinical trial to further investigate its promising profile in treating acute migraine.
The completed Phase 1 study demonstrated optimal pharmacokinetics and improved tolerability of PUR3100 compared to IV DHE. The Phase 1 trial was a randomized, double-dummy, double-blinded design to assesses the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of three dose groups treated with inhaled PUR3100 with intravenous (IV) placebo, compared to a single dose of IV DHE (DHE mesylate injection) with inhaled placebo in healthy volunteers. All doses of PUR3100 were generally well tolerated with a lower incidence of nausea (21% vs. 86%), vomiting (0% vs. 29%), and headache (16% vs. 57%) compared to IV DHE. The PK profile of PUR3100 versus IV DHE was characterized by a similar mean time to Cmax (5 vs. 5.5 min), with reduced AUC0–2h (1120–4320 vs. 6340), and a lower Cmax (3620–14,400 vs. 45,000). All doses of PUR3100 were associated with mean Cmax above the minimum level required to achieve efficacy (1000 pg/mL).
PUR1800
We are currently exploring opportunities to monetize PUR1800.
PUR1800 is a Narrow Spectrum Kinase Inhibitor, engineered with our iSPERSE™ technology, being developed for the treatment of acute exacerbations in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD). PUR1800 targets p38 MAP kinases (p38MAPK), Src kinases, and Syk kinases. These kinases play a critical role in chronic inflammation and airway remodeling.
We completed a Phase 1b safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of PUR1800 for patients with stable moderate-severe COPD. Topline data was delivered in the first quarter of 2022 and presented at the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology conference in the first quarter of 2023.
The clinical study, performed at the Medicines Evaluation Unit in Manchester, UK, was a randomized, three-way crossover double-blind study with 14 days of daily dosing, which included placebo and one of two doses of PUR1800, and included a 28-day follow-up period after each treatment period. A total of 18 adults with stable COPD were enrolled. Safety and tolerability, as well as systemic pharmacokinetics (“PK”) were evaluated.
PUR1800 was well tolerated and there were no observed safety signals. The PK data indicate that PUR1800 results in low and consistent systemic exposure when administered via oral inhalation. The topline data, along with the results from chronic toxicology studies, support the continued development of PUR1800 for the treatment of AECOPD and other inflammatory respiratory diseases. These data will inform the design of a potential Phase 2 study in the treatment of AECOPD.
Toxicology studies in rats and dogs, with durations of six and nine months respectively, are complete. The data from both studies demonstrated that PUR1800 is safe and well tolerated with chronic dosing, with little to no progression of findings from 28-day studies. We believe that this indicates potential for chronic dosing of PUR1800, enabling us to explore PUR1800 therapy for chronic respiratory diseases such as steroid resistant asthma, COPD, or idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. While the program is currently in development for treatment of acute exacerbation of COPD, these positive toxicology study results could expand potential indications and value of the program.
PUR1900
We are currently exploring opportunities to monetize PUR1900 within the United States.
On April 15, 2019, we entered into a Development and Commercialization Agreement (the “Cipla Agreement”) with Cipla for the co-development and commercialization, on a worldwide, except for the Cipla Territory defined below, exclusive basis, of PUR1900, our inhaled iSPERSE™ drug delivery system (the “Product”) enabled formulation of the antifungal drug itraconazole, which is only available as an oral drug, for the treatment of all pulmonary indications, including ABPA in patients with asthma. We entered into an amendment to the Cipla Agreement on November 8, 2021 (the “Second Amendment”) and a subsequent amendment on January 6, 2024 (the “Third Amendment”). All references to the Cipla Agreement herein refer to the Cipla Agreement, as amended. The Cipla Agreement will remain in effect in perpetuity, unless otherwise earlier terminated in accordance with its terms.
Pursuant to the Third Amendment, all development and commercialization activities with respect to the Product in all markets other than the United States (the “Cipla Territory”) will be conducted exclusively by Cipla at Cipla’s sole cost and expense, and Cipla shall be entitled to all profits from the sale of the Product in the Cipla Territory, except that we will receive 2% royalties on any potential future net sales by Cipla outside the United States.
Also pursuant to the Third Amendment, we and Cipla stopped patient enrollment for the ongoing Phase 2b clinical study. We agreed that during the period commencing on January 6, 2024 and ending July 30, 2024 (the “Wind Down Period”), we would complete all Phase 2b activities, assign or license all patents to Cipla and their registration with the appropriate authorities in the Cipla Territory, complete a physical and demonstrable technology transfer and secure all data from the Phase 2b study for inclusion in the safety database for the Cipla Territory.
We completed all Phase 2b wind down activities in the third quarter of 2024. As such, we no longer bear further financial responsibility for the commercialization and development with respect to the Product in the Cipla Territory, with such commercialization and development expenses of the Product in the Cipla Territory to be borne at Cipla’s sole cost and expense after January 6, 2024.
Our partner Cipla has continued clinical development outside the United States and India’s Central Drug Standard Control Organization has accepted Cipla’s Phase 2 clinical trial results for inhaled itraconazole dry powder formulation and approved the company’s proposal to proceed with Phase 3 trials. Should Cipla successfully market PUR1900 outside the United States, Pulmatrix will receive 2% royalties on any potential future net sales by Cipla outside the United States. Within the United States, we and Cipla will seek to monetize PUR1900 for indications where an orally inhaled antifungal may provide a therapeutic benefit or fulfill an unmet medical need.
Subsequent Events
Amendment No. 1 to Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization
On April 7, 2025, Cullgen, Pulmatrix and the Merger Subs entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization (“Amendment No. 1”) which, among other things, (i) makes a clarifying amendment to the fractional shares provision in the Merger Agreement and (ii) revises the transaction structure from a two-step merger to a one-step merger, such that the Contemplated Second Merger will no longer occur, and Merger Sub I will merge with and into Cullgen, with Cullgen surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of Pulmatrix and the surviving corporation of the merger (the “Merger”).
Financial Overview
Revenues
To date, we have not generated any product sales. No revenues were recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2025, and the revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2024, were primarily generated from the Cipla Agreement as related to our PUR1900 program, for which wind down activities have been completed.
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development expenses consist primarily of costs incurred for the research and development of our preclinical and clinical candidates, and include:
We expense research and development costs to operations as incurred. We recognize costs for certain development activities, such as clinical trials, based on an evaluation of the progress to completion of specific tasks using data such as patient enrollment, clinical site activations or information provided to us by our vendors.
Research and development activities are central to our business model. We have utilized a combination of internal and external efforts to advance product development from early-stage work to clinical trial manufacturing and clinical trial support. External efforts have included work with consultants and substantial work at CROs and CMOs. We have historically supported an internal research and development team and facility for our pipeline and other potential development programs, however following the closing of the transaction with MannKind Corporation (“MannKind” and such transactions, the “MannKind Transaction”) in the third quarter of 2024, in which the majority of our research and development employees were terminated and our facility lease was assigned to MannKind, we expect to utilize external resources for further development.
To continue development of existing programs or opportunities identified for iSPERSE™ in any new indications, we will need to secure additional funding and anticipate additional development costs would be incurred. Because of the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with product development, however, we cannot determine with certainty the duration and completion costs of these or other current or future preclinical studies and clinical trials. The duration, costs and timing of our future clinical trials and development of our product candidates will depend on a variety of factors, including the selected development path and uncertainties associated with clinical and preclinical studies, clinical trial enrollment rates and changing government regulation. In addition, the probability of success for each product candidate will depend on numerous factors, including competition, manufacturing capability and commercial viability.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses consist principally of salaries, benefits and related costs such as stock-based compensation for personnel and consultants in executive, finance, business development, corporate communications and human resource functions, facility costs not otherwise included in research and development expenses, patent filing fees and legal fees. Other general and administrative expenses include travel expenses, expenses related to being a publicly traded company, professional fees for consulting, auditing and tax services, and expenses related to the Company’s exploration of strategic alternatives, including the Merger.
Critical Accounting Estimates
This management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in our condensed consolidated financial statements. We base our estimates on historical experience, known trends and events, and other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, and we evaluate these estimates on an ongoing basis. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
Results of Operations
Comparison of the Three Months Ended March 31, 2025 and 2024
The following table sets forth our results of operations for each of the periods set forth below (in thousands):
Revenues — No revenues were recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2025, as compared to $5.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, a decrease of $5.9 million. The decrease is primarily related to completion of the wind down of the PUR1900 Phase 2b clinical trial during the year ended December 31, 2024.
Research and development expenses— Research and development expenses were less than $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, as compared to $3.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, a decrease of approximately $3.5 million. The decrease was primarily due to $2.2 million less employment and other operating cost following the MannKind Transaction, $1.2 million less cost incurred on the PUR1900 program, for which the winding down of the Phase 2b clinical trial was completed during the year ended December 31, 2024, and $0.1 million less cost incurred on the PUR3100 and PUR1800 programs.
General and administrative expenses— General and administrative expenses were $1.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, as compared to $1.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, an increase of approximately $0.2 million. The increase was primarily due to $0.7 million of costs related to the Merger, partially offset by decreased employment and other operating costs.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Through March 31, 2025, we incurred an accumulated deficit of $299.0 million, primarily as a result of expenses incurred through a combination of research and development activities related to our various product candidates and general and administrative expenses supporting those activities. We have financed our operations since inception primarily through the sale of preferred and common stock, the issuance of convertible promissory notes, term loans, and collaboration and license agreements. Our total cash and cash equivalents balance as of March 31, 2025, was $7.7 million.
We anticipate that we will continue to incur significant expenses in connection with pursuing strategic alternatives, including as related to and in connection with the Merger. Contingent on securing additional funding and continuing development of our program candidates, we anticipate that we would continue to incur losses over the next several years due to development costs associated with our iSPERSE™ pipeline programs. We expect that we would need additional capital to fund our operations as we continue to incur research and development and general and administrative expenses. We may raise such capital through a combination of equity offerings, debt financings, other third-party funding and other collaborations and strategic alliances.
We expect that our existing cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2025, will enable us to fund our corporate operating expenses for at least the next 12 months following the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We have based our projections of operating capital requirements on assumptions that may prove to be incorrect, and we may use all of our available capital resources sooner than we expect. Because of the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with the Merger, research, development, achievement of contingent milestones and commercialization of pharmaceutical products, we are unable to estimate the exact amount of our operating capital requirements.
We have no material off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.
The following table sets forth the major sources and uses of cash for each of the periods set forth below (in thousands):
Net cash used in operating activities
Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2025, was $1.8 million, which was primarily the result of $1.8 million of net loss and $0.1 million in net non-cash adjustments, partially offset by $0.1 million of cash outflows associated with changes in operating assets and liabilities.
Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2024, was $2.7 million, which was primarily the result of $4.0 million in cash outflows associated with changes in operating assets and liabilities, partially offset by $0.8 million of net income and $0.5 million of net non-cash adjustments.
Net cash used in investing activities
No cash was used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2025. Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was due to purchases of property and equipment.
Financings
In May 2021, we entered into the At The Market Offering Agreement (the “Sales Agreement”) with H.C. Wainwright (“HCW”) to act as our sales agent with respect to the issuance and sale of up to $20,000,000 of our shares of common stock, from time to time in an “at-the-market” offering (the “ATM Offering”). Upon filing of the Annual Report, we continued to be subject to General Instruction I.B.6 of Form S-3, pursuant to which in no event will we sell our common stock in a registered primary offering using Form S-3 with a value exceeding more than one-third of our public float in any 12 calendar month period so long as our public float remains below $75,000,000. Therefore, the amount we may be able to raise using the ATM Offering will be significantly less than $20,000,000, until such time as our public float held by non-affiliates exceeds $75,000,000.
Sales of common stock under the Sales Agreement are made pursuant to an effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3, which was filed with the SEC on May 17, 2024, and subsequently declared effective on May 30, 2024 (File No. 333-279491), and a related prospectus. HCW acts as our sales agent on a commercially reasonable efforts basis, consistent with its normal trading and sales practices and applicable state and federal laws, rules and regulations and the rules of Nasdaq. If expressly authorized by us, HCW may also sell our common stock in privately negotiated transactions. There is no specific date on which the ATM Offering will end, there are no minimum sale requirements and there are no arrangements to place any of the proceeds of the ATM Offering in an escrow, trust or similar account. HCW is entitled to compensation at a fixed commission rate of 3.0% of the gross proceeds from the sale of our common stock pursuant to the Sales Agreement.
During the three months ended March 31, 2025, and 2024, no shares of our common stock were sold under the Sales Agreement.
Known Trends, Events and Uncertainties
The Company is subject to risks and uncertainties including, should it resume development of its product candidates, risks and uncertainties common to companies in the biopharmaceutical industry, including but not limited to, risks associated with completing preclinical studies and clinical trials, receiving regulatory approvals for product candidates, development by competitors of new biopharmaceutical products, dependence on key personnel, protection of proprietary technology, compliance with government regulations and the ability to secure additional capital to fund operations. Should the Company resume development of its product candidates, significant additional research and development efforts, including preclinical and clinical testing and regulatory approval, prior to commercialization, would be required. These efforts would require significant amounts of additional capital, adequate personnel and infrastructure and extensive compliance-reporting capabilities. Even if the Company’s product development efforts are successful, should the Company resume development of its product candidates, it is uncertain when, if ever, the Company would realize revenue from product sales. Additionally, recent changes to U.S. policy implemented by the U.S. Congress, the Trump administration or any new administration have impacted and may in the future impact, among other things, the U.S. and global economy, tariffs, international trade relations, unemployment, immigration, healthcare, taxation, the U.S. regulatory environment, inflation and other areas. Although we cannot predict the impact, if any, of these changes to our business, they could adversely affect our business.
