Item 8. Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows
1. Description of business
Medicus Pharma Ltd. (the "Company"), formerly Interactive Capital Partners Corporation, is a clinical stage, multi-strategy, life sciences, biotech company focused on investing in and accelerating clinical development programs of novel and potentially disruptive therapeutic assets.
The Company is a public limited Company originally incorporated pursuant to the provisions of the Business Corporations Act (Ontario) on April 30, 2008, as a private company named Interactive Capital Partners Corporation, with nominal assets and liabilities. The Company's registered office is located at 100 King Street West, Suite 3400, One First Canadian Place, Toronto, Ontario, Canada, and its head office is located at 300 Conshohocken State Rd., Suite 200, W. Conshohocken, PA.
Liquidity and Going Concern
The Company has incurred significant operating losses and cash outflows from operating activities since its inception. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $64,348,118 and $28,903,903, respectively.
From the Company's inception through the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company has funded its operations primarily through equity and debt financings.
On February 10, 2025, the Company announced that it had entered into the SEPA (as defined below). Subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, Yorkville (as defined below) has committed to purchase the Company's common shares up to an aggregate gross sales price of $15,000,000 during the 36 months following the date of the SEPA. See Note 5 for further details.
The Company expects to continue to incur significant operating losses for the foreseeable future and may never become profitable. If the Company is unable to secure additional capital, it may be required to take additional measures to reduce costs in order to conserve its cash in amounts sufficient to sustain operations and meet its obligations. These measures could cause significant delays or entirely prevent the Company's continued efforts to commercialize its current or future products, which are critical to the realization of its business plan and the future operations of the Company. This uncertainty, along with the Company's history of losses, indicates that there is substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that may be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
In addition to accessing public markets through the exercise of outstanding warrants, additional public and private debt and equity financings, the SEPA and the ATM (as defined below), management believes that the Company has access to additional capital resources through public and/or private equity offerings, debt financings or other capital sources, including potential collaborations, licenses and other similar arrangements. However, it is possible that the Company may not be able to obtain financing on acceptable terms, or at all, and the Company may not be able to enter into strategic alliances or other arrangements on favorable terms, or at all. The terms of any financing may adversely affect the holdings or the rights of the Company's shareholders. If the Company is unable to obtain funding, the Company could be required to delay, reduce or eliminate research and development programs, product portfolio expansion, or future commercialization efforts, which could adversely affect its business prospects. The Company is subject to risks associated with any specialty biotechnology company that has substantial expenditures for research and development. There can be no assurance that the Company's research and development projects will be successful, that products developed will obtain necessary regulatory approval, or that any approved product will be commercially viable.
Reverse Share Split
On June 25, 2024, the Company's shareholders approved an amendment to the Company's articles of incorporation to provide for the share consolidation, or reverse share split, of the Company's issued and outstanding common shares at such a consolidation ratio to be determined by the Board of Directors of the Company in its sole discretion, to permit the Company to satisfy all conditions and necessary regulatory approvals to list the common shares on a U.S. national securities exchange as the Board of Directors of the Company may determine in its sole direction (the "Share Consolidation"). The Board of Directors of the Company approved the Share Consolidation on October 15, 2024, and the Share Consolidation was completed by the Company on October 28, 2024, at the ratio of 1-for-2.
After the completion of the Share Consolidation, the number of the Company's issued and outstanding common shares decreased from 21,693,560 to 10,846,721. The par value of the Company's common shares remains unchanged at $0 per share after the Share Consolidation.
Share and per share data presented in these consolidated financial statements for all periods presented has been adjusted for the Share Consolidation.
**2.**Summary of significant accounting policies
Basis of presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements ("financial statements") are presented in United States dollars, and are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("US GAAP") and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") for financial information.
Basis of consolidation
These consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, SkinJect, Inc., Medicus Pharma Inc and Antev Limited ("Antev"). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated on consolidation. The functional currency of the Company and its two wholly-owned subsidiaries, SkinJect, Inc. and Medicus Pharma Inc., is the United States dollar (USD). The functional currency of the Company's other subsidiary, Antev, is Pound Sterling (GBP).
Use of estimates
The preparation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Key estimates include the valuation of stock-based awards, the incremental borrowing rate for lease liabilities, the fair value of Debentures and Warrants, the discount for lack of marketability on shares issued for the Antev acquisition, and the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets, all of which are management's best estimates.
Estimates are based on historical experience, where applicable, and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. By their nature, these estimates are subject to measurement uncertainty and the effect on the consolidated financial statements of changes in estimates in future years could be significant. Management believes that the estimates utilized in preparing the consolidated financial statements are reasonable, however, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Foreign operations remeasurement and translation
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions, and from the translation of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at year end exchange rates, are generally recognized in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The results and financial position of foreign operation which has functional currency different from presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows: assets and liabilities are translated at the closing rate at the date of that consolidated statement of financial position, income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates, and all resulting translated exchange differences are recognized in a separate component of other comprehensive loss within the consolidated statement of changes in shareholders' equity.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash held at financial institutions and short-term investments in highly liquid marketable securities, having an original maturity of three months or less.
The Company holds money market accounts with maturities of three months or less. These money market accounts are included in cash and cash equivalents on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
Prepaid expenses
Prepaid expenses include payments for goods or services to be received in the future, insurance, subscription services and professional services.
Leases
The Company assess whether a contract is, or contains, a lease at inception of the contract and reassesses that conclusion if the contract is modified. The Company accounts for a contract as a lease when the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.
The Company recognizes a right-of-use ("ROU") asset and a lease liability at the lease commencement date. The ROU asset is initially measured based on the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred and less any lease incentives received. The assets are amortized to the earlier of the end of the useful life of the ROU asset or the lease term using the straight-line method as this most closely reflects the expected pattern of consumption of the future economic benefits. The lease term includes periods covered by an option to extend if the Company is reasonably certain to exercise that option.
The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the future lease payments at the commencement date, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be readily determined, the Company's incremental borrowing rate.
Variable lease components and non-lease components are excluded from the lease payments used to calculate the right-of-use assets and lease liabilities and are recorded in the period in which the obligation for the payment is incurred.
The lease liability is measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. It is remeasured when there is a change in future lease payments arising from a change in an index or rate, or if the Company changes its assessment of whether it will exercise a purchase, extension or termination option. When the lease liability is remeasured, a corresponding adjustment is made to the carrying amount of the ROU asset or is recorded in profit or loss if the carrying amount of the ROU asset has been reduced to zero.
The Company's operating lease cost for lease component payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term within general and administrative expenses.
The Company has elected to apply the practical expedient not to recognize ROU assets and lease liabilities for short term leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less. The lease payments for short-term leases are recognized as an expense.
Research and development
All research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development costs consist primarily of salaries, employee benefits, costs associated with preclinical studies and clinical trials (including amounts paid to clinical research organizations and other professional services). Payments made prior to the receipt of goods or services to be used in research and development are capitalized until the goods or services are received.
The Company records accruals for estimated research and development costs, comprising payments for work performed by third party contractors, laboratories, participating clinical trial sites, and others. Some of these contractors bill monthly based on actual services performed, while others bill periodically based upon achieving certain contractual milestones. For the latter, the Company accrues the expenses as goods or services are used or rendered. Clinical trial site costs related to patient enrollment are accrued as patients enter and progress through the trial. Upfront costs, such as costs associated with setting up clinical trial sites for participation in the trials, are expensed immediately once incurred as research and development expenses.
Stock-based compensation
The Company expenses stock-based compensation to employees and non-employees over the requisite service period based on the estimated grant-date fair value of the awards. The Company estimates the fair value of stock option grants and shares purchasable under the Company's Equity Incentive Plan (the "Plan") using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, and the assumptions used in calculating the fair value of stock-based awards represent management's best estimates and involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management's judgment. The Company accounts for forfeitures as they occur. All stock-based compensation costs are recorded in the statements of operations and comprehensive loss based upon the underlying employees or non-employee's roles within the Company.
Acquisition
The Company evaluates acquisitions of assets and other similar transactions to assess whether or not the transaction should be accounted for as a business combination or asset acquisition by first applying a screen test to determine whether substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or group of similar identifiable assets. If so, the transaction is accounted for as an asset acquisition. If not, further determination is required as to whether or not the Company has acquired inputs and processes that have the ability to create outputs, which would meet the definition of a business. Significant judgment is required in the application of the screen test to determine whether an acquisition is a business combination or an acquisition of assets.
Acquisitions meeting the definition of business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting, which requires that the purchase price be allocated to the net assets acquired at their respective fair values. In a business combination, any excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of the net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill.
For asset acquisitions, a cost accumulation model is used to determine the cost of an asset acquisition. Direct transaction costs are recognized as part of the cost of an asset acquisition. The Company also evaluates which elements of a transaction should be accounted for as a part of an asset acquisition and which should be accounted for separately. The cost of an asset acquisition, including transaction costs, is allocated to identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on a relative fair value basis. Goodwill is not recognized in an asset acquisition. Any difference between the cost of an asset acquisition and the fair value of the net assets acquired is allocated to the non-monetary identifiable assets based on their relative fair values. When a transaction accounted for as an asset acquisition includes an in-process research and development ("IPR&D") asset, the IPR&D asset is only capitalized if it has an alternative future use other than in a particular research and development project. For an IPR&D asset to have an alternative future use: (a) the Company must reasonably expect that it will use the asset acquired in the alternative manner and anticipate economic benefit from that alternative use, and (b) the Company's use of the asset acquired is not contingent on further development of the asset subsequent to the acquisition date (that is, the asset can be used in the alternative manner in the condition in which it existed at the acquisition date). Otherwise, amounts allocated to IPR&D that have no alternative use are expensed to research and development. Asset acquisitions may include contingent consideration arrangements that encompass obligations to make future payments to sellers, contingent upon the achievement of future financial targets.
Contingent consideration is not recognized until it is probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated, at which point the consideration is allocated to the assets acquired on a relative fair value basis.
Net loss per share
Basic net loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss by the sum of the weighted average number of shares outstanding and all additional shares that would have been outstanding if potentially dilutive shares had been exercised at the beginning of the period.
Financial instruments
Financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and debentures are carried at cost, which management believes approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The fair value of lease obligations approximates their carrying amounts as a market rate of interest is attached to their repayment. The Company measures the fair value of financial assets and liabilities based on the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The Company maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The Company uses three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1-Inputs used to measure fair value are unadjusted quoted prices that are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date.
Level 2- Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
Level 3-Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and reflect the use of significant management judgment are used to measure fair value. These values are generally determined using pricing models for which the assumptions utilize management's estimates of market participant assumptions. The determination of fair value for Level 3 investments and other financial instruments involves the most management judgment and subjectivity.
Concentration of credit risk
Cash and cash equivalents are financial instruments that are potentially subject to concentrations of credit risk. The Company's cash and cash equivalents are deposited in accounts at large financial institutions, and amounts may exceed federally insured limits. The Company believes it is not exposed to significant credit risk due to the financial strength of the depository institutions in which the cash and cash equivalents are held. The Company maintains its cash equivalents in money market funds that invest in U.S. Treasury and agency securities.
Foreign currency transactions
Foreign exchange transaction gains and losses are included in general and administrative expense in the Company's consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss.
Income taxes
Income taxes are recorded in accordance with ASC 740,Income Taxes, which provides for deferred taxes using an asset and liability approach. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and net operating loss and credit carryforwards using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to impact taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized.
Tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return are recorded in the Company's consolidated financial statements. A tax benefit from an uncertain tax position is only recognized if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the consolidated financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate resolution. Uncertain tax positions have had no impact on the Company's consolidated financial condition, results of comprehensive loss or cash flows.
Operating segments
Operating segments are identified as components of an entity about which separate discrete financial information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision-maker ("CODM") in making decisions regarding resource allocation and assessing performance. The Company views its operations and manages its business in one operating segment.
Recently adopted accounting pronouncements
In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06 "Debt-Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity's Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40)" to simplify the accounting for convertible instruments by reducing the number of accounting models and to improve the information provided to the financial statement users by reducing the complexity and diversity of accounting practices. ASU 2020-06 is effective for our annual periods beginning January 1, 2024. The impact of adopting the amendment on the Company's financial statements was not significant.
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07 "Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures" to expand the disclosures required by public entities for reportable segments, thereby responding to stakeholders' requests for more detailed information about expenses within each reportable segment. The expanded disclosures now require public entities to disclose significant expenses for reportable segments in both interim and in annual reporting periods, while entities with only a single reportable segment must now provide all segment disclosures required both in ASC 280 and under the amendments in ASU 2023-07. ASU 2023-07 is effective for our annual periods beginning January 1, 2024. See Note 14 for enhanced segment reporting disclosures.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09 "Income Taxes (Topics 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures" to expand the disclosure requirements for income taxes, specifically related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. ASU 2023-09 is effective for our annual periods beginning January 1, 2025, with early adoption permitted. The disclosures have been implemented as required for the year-ended December 31, 2025. See Note 8 for enhanced income tax disclosures.
Recently issued accounting pronouncements
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-04 "Debt-Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20: Induced Conversions of Convertible Debt Instruments", to improve consistency and relevance of accounting for induced conversions of convertible debt instruments and it addresses scenarios involving convertible debt instruments and cash conversion features and those not currently convertible. ASU 2024-04 is effective for our annual period beginning January 1, 2026, with early adoption permitted for entities that adopted the amendment in ASU 2020-06. We are currently evaluating the potential effect that the updated standard will have on our financial statement disclosures.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03 "Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures" to provide greater transparency about the components of specific expense categories in the income statements. The effective dates of ASU 2024-03 were subsequently clarified by ASU 2025-01. ASU 2025-01 is effective for our annual period beginning January 1, 2027, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting the amendment on the Company's financial statements.
There were no other significant updates to the recently issued accounting standards which may be applicable to the Company. Although there are several other new accounting pronouncements issued or proposed by the FASB, the Company does not believe any of those accounting pronouncements have had or will have a material impact on its financial position or operating results.

5. Share capital
Authorized
The Company has authorized an unlimited number of common shares participating, voting and without par value. Each holder of common shares is entitled to one vote for each share owned on all matters voted upon by shareholders.
On October 28, 2024, the Company completed a reverse share split at the ratio of 1-for-2, resulting in 10,846,721 common shares after conversion.
Conversion of convertible notes
On May 3, 2024, the Company issued convertible notes in the principal amount of $5,172,500. The convertible notes accrued interest at the rate of 10% per annum, payable in-kind semi-annually in arrears in the form of either cash or common shares of the Company, at the election of the holder, and had a maturity date of December 31, 2025.
Prior to January 1, 2025, the convertible notes would automatically convert to common shares in the event that the Company completed an initial public offering in the United States, at a conversion price equal to the greater of(i) a 20% discount to the initial public offering price and (ii) $4.00; or if there had been a change of control, at a conversion price of $4.00 per common share. On or after January 1, 2025, conversion would be at the option of the holder at a conversion price of $4.00 per common share. The Company had the option to redeem all or any portion of the convertible notes at a price equal to 100% of the outstanding principal plus accrued and unpaid interest up to but not including the date of redemption. In the event of a change of control, the Company would offer to repurchase the convertible notes at a price equal to 101% of the principal plus accrued and unpaid interest up to but not including the date of repurchase. The Company elected to account for the convertible notes in their entirety at fair value through profit and loss.
Subsequently, the note holders were given the option to convert at a conversion price of $4.00 per share prior to July 31, 2024. On June 28, 2024, all of the holders of the convertible notes elected to convert to common shares. The Company paid cash interest of $40,563 and accrued interest of $38,462 was converted, along with the principal amount of $5,172,500, into 1,308,798 common shares.
Private placement
On June 28, 2024, the Company issued 1,461,250 common shares as part of a private placement for total proceeds of $5,845,000 at $4.00 per common share. The Company incurred finders' fees of $375,000, which were recognized in equity as deduction from the gross proceeds received.
Initial Public Offering
On November 14, 2024, the Company completed the sale of 970,000 Units, with each Unit consisting of one common share and one warrant to purchase one common share (the "Unit") at the price of $4.125 per Unit. In addition, the underwriters exercised an option to purchase 145,500 warrants (the 'Overallotment Warrants") at a price of $0.01 per warrant.
Total gross proceeds from the IPO were $4,002,705, including the proceeds from the Overallotment Warrants. The Company incurred total issuance costs of $2,218,014, including underwriter fees, and legal and other professional fees incurred directly related to the issuance.
The incremental costs directly associated with the issuance were recognized as a deduction in equity and allocated based on the relative fair values of the warrants and common shares on a standalone basis.
The fair value of the common shares was based on the Company's stock price on the day of issuance of $2.65 and the fair value of the warrants was $1.7419 per warrant. The warrants were recognized in additional paid-in capital as they met the criteria for equity classification.
The fair value of the warrants was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following inputs:
| Valuation date share price | $2.65 |
|---|---|
| Exercise price | $4.64 |
| Dividend yield | - |
| Risk-free interest rate | 4.32% |
| Expected warrant life | 5 years |
| Expected volatility | 95% |
Regulation A Offering
On March 10, 2025, the Company closed a Tier II Regulation A offering for gross proceeds of $4,172,000. The Company issued 1,490,000 units at a price of $2.80 per unit. Each unit consisted of one common share of the Company and one warrant to purchase one common share of the Company (each a "Regulation A Warrant"). The Regulation A Warrants have an exercise price of $2.80 per share and will expire 5 years from the date of issuance on March 10, 2030. The Company incurred total issuance costs of $483,020, including legal fees and placement fees directly related to the issuance. The issuance costs incurred were recognized as a reduction in equity and allocated based on the relative fair values of the Regulation A Warrants and common shares on a standalone basis. The fair value of the common shares was based on the Company's share price on the day of issuance of $3.40 and the fair value of the Regulation A Warrants was $2.63 per warrant. The Regulation A Warrants were recognized in additional paid-in capital as they met the criteria for equity classification.
June 2025 Public Offering
On June 2, 2025, the Company closed a public offering of 2,260,000 units, with each unit consisting of one common share of the Company, and one warrant to purchase one common share, at a price of $3.10 per unit (the "June 2030 Warrants"), for gross proceeds of $7,006,000, before deducting placement agent fees and other estimated offering expenses (the "June 2025 Public Offering"). The June 2030 Warrants were immediately exercisable for one of our common shares at an exercise price of $3.10 per share and will expire 5 years from the date of issuance on June 3, 2030. The units were offered pursuant to the Company's Registration Statement on FormS-1, initially filed with the SEC under the Securities Act on May 27, 2025 and declared effective by the SEC on May 29, 2025. The Company incurred issuance costs of $809,606, including legal fees and placement fees directly related to the issuance. The issuance costs incurred were recognized as a reduction in equity and allocated based on the relative fair values of the June 2030 Warrants and common shares on a standalone basis. The fair value of the common shares were based on the Company's share price on the day of issuance of $2.63 and the fair value of the June 2030 Warrants were $1.92 per warrant. The June 2030 Warrants were recognized in additional paid-in capital as they met the criteria for equity classification.
On July 14, 2025,1,340,000 of Regulation A Warrants were exercised for cash, for proceeds of $3,752,000 during the year ended December 31, 2025 under inducement offer with a certain accredited and institutional holder (the "Holder"). The Company issued 1,340,000 Series A and 1,340,000 Series B warrants to the Holder as consideration of early exercise of its Regulation A Warrants. The new warrants meet equity classification criteria under ASC 815-40 and are not subject to remeasurement. The fair value of the new warrants is recognized as a deemed dividend, offsetting the increase in additional paid-in capital, resulting in no net impact on equity. The exercise price of each of the Series A and B warrants granted on July 14, 2025 under the inducement offer is $3.75 and expected life is for 5 years. The fair value of the warrants granted is $4,954,518 using the Black Scholes option pricing model.
As of December 31, 2025,1,473,800 of the 1,490,000 Regulation A Warrants have been exercised for cash, for proceeds to the Company of $4,126,639 during the year ended December 31, 2025.
As of December 31, 2025,129,905 Warrants issued as part of the IPO have been exercised for cash for proceeds to the Company of $602,756 during the year ended December 31, 2025.
On December 5, 2025, the Company entered into a warrant inducement agreement with the Holder for immediate exercise of all outstanding Series A and Series B warrants that the Company had originally issued on July 15, 2025. The exercise price of the outstanding Series A and Series B warrants was amended to $1.92 per share from the original exercise price of $3.75. As part of this inducement, the Holder agreed to exercise all outstanding warrants to purchase an aggregate of 2,680,000 shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $1.92 per share (the amended exercise price). The gross proceeds from the exercise of the warrants are $5,145,600. In consideration for immediate cash exercise, the Company agreed to issue to the Holder unregistered Series C and Series D warrants to purchase an aggregate of 4,020,000 shares of the Company's common stock, each with an exercise price of $2.00 per share and expected life of 5.5 years. The amended and new warrants meet equity classification criteria under ASC 815-40 and are not subject to remeasurement. The incremental fair value attributable to the amended warrants and the fair value of the new warrants is recognized as a deemed dividend, offsetting the increase in additional paid-in capital, resulting in no net impact on equity. The incremental fair value attributable to the amended warrants is $884,331 and the fair value of the warrants granted is $5,998,449 using the Black Scholes option pricing model.
The Company's Regulation A, June 2025, July 2025 and December 2025 Warrants are not actively traded and are therefore classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of these warrants is estimated using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. The valuation incorporates significant unobservable inputs and management judgment.
The fair value of the Regulation A, June 2025, July 2025 and December 2025 Warrants were estimated using the Black-Scholes model with the following assumptions:
| Issue DateMarch 10, 2025 | Issue DateJune 2, 2025 | Issue DateJuly 15, 2025 | Issue dateDecember 5, 2025 | |

Standby Equity Purchase Agreement
On February 10, 2025, the Company also announced that it had entered into a standby equity purchase agreement (the "SEPA") with YA II PN, Ltd. ("Yorkville"). Pursuant to the SEPA and subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, Yorkville has committed to purchase the Company's common shares, no par value, in increments up to an aggregate gross sales price of $15,000,000 during the 36 months following the date of the SEPA (such shares, the "Shares"). The Shares will be sold at the Company's option pursuant to the SEPA at 97% of the Market Price (as defined pursuant to the SEPA) and purchases are subject to certain limitations set forth in the SEPA. As consideration for Yorkville's commitment to purchase the common shares pursuant to the SEPA, the Company paid Yorkville a structuring fee in the amount of $25,000 and issued to Yorkville 105,840 common shares with a share price of $2.83 at issuance. The Company also incurred legal fees of $391,898 related to the SEPA. These costs are expensed to consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss. As of December 31, 2025, the Company issued 3,677,853 common shares at market price of $8,706,270 for proceeds of $8,427,416. During the year ended December 31, 2025, $4,430,833 of the gross proceeds were held back to partially repay the Company's outstanding debenture and interest to Yorkville.
On December 29, 2025, the Company entered into an equity distribution agreement (the "ATM Agreement") with Maxim Group LLP and Yorkville Securities LLC ("Yorkville Securities" and together with Maxim, the "Agents") to create an at-the-market equity program (the "ATM"). Under the ATM Agreement, the Company may offer and sell its common shares from time to time through the Agents. The Company agreed to pay the Agents a commission equal to 3% of the gross sales from the sales of the shares pursuant to the ATM Agreement.
6. Stock-based compensation
In 2023, the Company approved the Equity Incentive Plan (the "Plan"). The Plan provides both for the direct award or sale of shares and for the grant of options to purchase shares. Under the plan the total number of shares available for options cannot exceed 10% of the Company's issued and outstanding common shares at the time of any grant. The Company is authorized to issue options to employees, non-employee directors and consultants under the plan.
On June 25, 2024, the Board of Directors approved the acceleration of vesting for all outstanding share options to June 25, 2024, resulting in the Company recognizing the remaining expense for all share options outstanding and unvested as of that date.
On June 13, 2025, the Company granted 100,000 stock options to an employee under the Company's equity incentive plan. The options have an exercise price of $2.60 per share and a term offive years. The options vest in five equal annual installments, with 20,000 options vesting on each anniversary of the grant date.
On July 22, 2025, the Board of Directors of the Company approved the acceleration of vesting for 100,000 share options granted on December 17, 2024,210,000 share options granted on December 17, 2024, and for 100,000 options granted on June 30, 2025, resulting in the Company recognizing $663,998 of remaining expense for such accelerated share options.
On July 22, 2025, the Company issued 700,000 stock options to individuals of the Company consisting of its directors, officers, and employees. The options are exercisable at $3.08 per share, expire five years from the grant date, and vest quarterly over aone-year period.
On August 29, 2025, the Company issued 25,000 stock options to a director of the Company. The options are exercisable at $1.94 per share, expire five years from the grant date, and vest quarterly over aone year period.
On December 16, 2025, the Company issued 685,000 stock options to individuals of the Company consisting of its directors, officers, and employees. The options are exercisable at $1.80 per share, expire five years from the grant date, and vest quarterly over aone year period.
The following table summarizes option transactions for the Plan:
| Number ofoptions | Weightedaverageexercise price$ | Weightedaverageremainingcontractual life(years) | Aggregateintrinsic value$ | |
|---|---|---|---|---|

| Unvested at December 31, 2025 | 1,191,250 | 2.33 | 4.79 | - |
The weighted average grant-date fair value of options granted during the years ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 was $1.80 and C$2.82, respectively. The weighted average grant-date fair value of options forfeited during the year ended December 31, 2025 was 2.44 (December 31, 2024 - C$2.36).
As of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, there were $1,701,722 and $565,986 of unrecognized stock-based compensation cost related to share options outstanding, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.75 and 2.25 years, respectively.
For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, stock-based compensation expense was $1,512,194 and $713,119, respectively. Stock-based compensation expense has been reported in the Company's consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss within the line items 'general and administrative' and 'research and development' expenses.
The following table presents the assumptions that were used in the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of share options granted during the year:
| 2025 | 2024 | |
|---|---|---|
| Expected dividend yield | - | - |
| Risk-free interest rate | 3.68% - 4.02% | 2.95% - 4.24% |
| Expected term (in years) | 5 years | 5 years |
| Expected volatility | 87.31% - 101.54% | 95% - 100% |
The expected volatility is based on the share price volatility observed for comparable publicly traded companies over a period similar to the life of the options. The expected option life represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free interest rate is based on Canadian government bonds with a remaining term equal to the expected life of the options.
7. Net loss per share
Basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to ordinary shareholders was calculated as follows:
| Year ended December 31, | ||
|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 2024 | |
| Net loss attributable to shareholders | $(47,281,513) | $(11,155,516) |
| Weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year | 17,283,824 | 9,619,184 |
| Basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to shareholders | $(2.74) | $(1.16) |
The Company's potentially dilutive securities as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, include stock options, warrants, and notes payable. The Company excluded the potential ordinary shares outstanding at each period end from the computation of diluted net loss per share attributable to ordinary shareholders for the period ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 because including them would have had an anti-dilutive effect.
8. Income taxes
As a result of the prospective adoption ofASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (ASU 2023-09), certain tables are presented in a different format not comparable to prior year disclosures, and certain data contained within the tables may be presented differently than in prior years.

Medicus Pharma Ltd intends to be treated as a United States corporation for United States federal income tax purposes under section 7874 of the U.S. Tax Code and is expected to be subject to United States federal income tax. However, for Canadian tax purposes, Medicus Pharma Ltd is expected, regardless of any application of section 7874 of the U.S. Tax Code, to be treated as a Canadian resident company (as defined in the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the "ITA") for Canadian income tax purposes. As a result, Medicus Pharma Ltd will be subject to taxation both in Canada and the United States.
The Company has a valuation allowance on all of its deferred tax assets at December 31, 2025 and 2024, which based on the judgement of management are not more-likely than-not to be realized. In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more-likely-than-not that all or some portion of the deferred assets will not be realized. This ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the period in which those deductible temporary differences become deductible. Based on the history of losses and projections for future taxable income, management believes that it is not more-likely than-not that the Company will realize the benefits of these deductible temporary differences.
The Company has $210,606 of US Research and Development Tax Credits which are available to reduce future US taxes payable and begin to expire in 2036.
In addition, the Company has gross Canadian operating tax loss carryforwards of $20,099,000. To the extent that the operating tax loss carryforwards are not used, they begin to expire in 2028. The Company also has gross US Federal net operating loss carryforward ("NOLs") of $20,949,000 of which approximately $1,253,000 begin to expire in 2035, while approximately $19,696,000 has an indefinite life.
In addition, the Company has approximately $20,949,000 of gross US State NOLs, which begin to expire in 2035.
The US NOL carryforwards may be, or become subject to, an annual limitation in the event of certain cumulative changes in the ownership interest of significant stockholders over a three-year period in excess of 50%, as defined under Sections 382 and 383 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, as well as similar state tax provisions. This could limit the amount of NOLs that the Company can utilize annually to offset future taxable income or tax liabilities. The amount of the annual limitation, if any, will be determined based on the value of the Company immediately prior to an ownership change. Subsequent ownership changes may further affect the limitation in future years. If and when the Company utilizes the NOL carryforwards in a future period, it will perform an analysis to determine the effect, if any, of these loss limitation rules on the NOL carryforward balances.
The Company files income tax returns with Canada and its provinces and territories and is generally subject to routine examinations by the Canada Revenue Agency ("CRA"). Income tax returns filed with various provincial jurisdictions are generally open to examination for periods of four to five years subsequent to the filing of the respective returns.
The Company also files income tax returns for our U.S. operations and subsidiary with the U.S. federal and state tax jurisdictions. Generally, we are subject to routine examination by taxing authorities in the U.S. jurisdictions, which all years since inception are open to examination due to net operating losses.
There are presently no examinations of our Canadian, U.S. federal and U.S. state jurisdictions.
9. Related party transactions
On October 18, 2023, the Company signed an agreement with RBx Capital, LP ("RBx"), a family office controlled by the Company's Executive Chairman and CEO, that provides for certain managerial positions to be filled from within RBx. RBx is responsible for the payment and provision of all wages, bonuses, and benefits for these positions. Reimbursable salaries paid to RBx pursuant to this agreement are $125,000 per month.

Reimbursable salaries paid to RBx were $1,200,000 and $1,300,000 during the years ended December 31, 2025, and 2024, respectively. Additional expenses of $446,264 and $180,857 were incurred by RBx on behalf of the Company during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The Company paid $1,570,504 and $1,623,316 to RBx during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. The total amount of accounts payable to RBx was $194,152 and $142,459 as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Upon conversion the Company settled the convertible notes, along with accrued but unpaid interest, with 172,953 common shares.
10. Debentures
On May 2, 2025, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with Yorkville, under which the Company has issued and sold three debentures (the "Initial Debenture") to Yorkville in an aggregate principal amount totaling $5,000,000. The Debentures were issued at a discounted price of 90% for proceeds to the Company of $4,500,000. Interest accrued on the outstanding principal amount of the Initial Debenture at an annual rate of 8%, and was subject to a potential increase to 18% per annum upon the occurrence of certain events of default. The Initial Debenture was expected to mature on February 2, 2026 and are required to be repaid using proceeds from the SEPA. The Company elected the fair value option to account for the Initial Debenture. The underlying methodology used was a discounted cash flow approach. The Company initially recorded the Initial Debenture at fair value with any differences between the transaction price and fair value recorded as a gain or loss in the statement of operations and comprehensive loss. It was determined that the Initial Debenture was issued at fair value and therefore there was no gain or loss at the issuance date. Based on the fair value option, the Company subsequently remeasured the Initial Debenture at fair value at each reporting period with the gain or loss recognized in the statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The Initial Debenture was remeasured to reflect changes in market yields at June 30, 2025, resulting in a change in fair value of $200,000 that was recorded in the statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the year ended December 31, 2025.
On September 17, 2025, the Company entered into securities purchase agreement with Yorkville to issue a debenture with the principal amount of $8,000,000 issued at a discount of $633,707 for proceeds of approximately $7,366,293. Interest will accrue on the outstanding principal amount of the debenture at an annual rate of 8%, subject to a potential increase to 18% per annum upon the occurrence of certain events of default. The debenture will mature on September 17, 2026 and will be repaid using proceeds from the SEPA.
Partial proceeds of the debenture issued on September 17, 2025 were used to settle the previously issued debentures. The change in fair value of the previously issued debentures as at September 17, 2025 of $383,823 was recorded in the statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the year ended December 31, 2025.
The Company applied the provisions of ASC Topic 470-50 - Debt Modifications and Extinguishments to the Debenture restructuring. ASC 470-50 provides that substantial modifications of terms should be treated in the same manner as an extinguishment of debt. A cash-flow test is used to determine if the modification is substantial whereby cash flows prior to the modification are compared to cash flows subsequent to the modification. ASC 470-50 states that if the discounted cash flows under the terms of the new debt instrument are at least ten percent different from the discounted cash flows under the terms of the original instrument then the new terms represent a substantial modification and an extinguishment of debt has occurred.
As the new debenture replaced the prior debentures, the Company assessed the transaction under ASC470-50 and determined that the changes were substantial. Accordingly, the transaction was accounted for as an extinguishment of the previous debentures. A loss on extinguishment was recognized based on the difference between the fair value and the carrying amount of the extinguished debentures at settlement date. The loss on extinguishment of $25,000 was recorded in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the year ended December 31, 2025.
The new debenture was initially recorded at fair value, based on the discounted proceeds. Subsequently, the Company accounted for the debenture at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method, resulting in accretion expense of $403,121 for the year ended December 31, 2025. The effective interest rate calculated was 24.86% as December 31, 2025.

Specifically, 15% of the shares will be released at 30, 60, 90, 120, 150, and 180 days following the effectiveness of the Initial Registration Statement by the SEC, with the remaining 10% released on day 210. Additionally, these shares are subject to a six-month statutory hold under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933. A Registration Statement on Form S-1 was filed with the SEC to register the shares for resale. The SEC registration statement on the Form S-1 was declared effective on November 14, 2025.
The Company accounted for the transaction as an asset acquisition as substantially all of the estimated fair value of the gross assets acquired was concentrated in a single identified IPR&D, thus satisfying the requirements of the screen test in accordance with the criteria under ASC 805-10-55-5C. As the common shares issued by the Company were subject to lock-up restrictions, a discount of 21.4394%, which is a Level 3 input, was applied to the quoted closing price of the Company's shares ($1.94) to determine the fair value of the Company's common share. This resulted in a fair value of $1.52 per share, reflecting a discount of $0.42 per share.
The following is a summary of the considerations paid:
| Fair value of 1,603,164 common shares | $2,443,344 |
|---|---|
| Cash paid | 2,970,166 |
| Transaction expenses | 1,992,798 |
| Contingent consideration | - |
| Total fair value consideration | 7,406,308 |
| Fair value of non-controlling interest | 105,161 |
| Total fair value for allocation to net assets of Antev | 7,511,469 |
Due to the nature of the regulatory, sales and financing-based milestones, the contingent consideration was not included in the initial cost of assets acquired as they are contingent upon events that are outside the Company's control. Contingent consideration will be recognized when it becomes probable that the milestone conditions will be met and the amount can be estimated. As of December 31, 2025, none of the contingent events had occurred, nor were the milestone conditions considered probable to be met.
The allocation of Antev's net assets acquired were as follows:
| Cash | $13,353 |
|---|---|
| Assets | 224,719 |
| Accrued and other accounts payable | (1,327,429) |
| Other liabilities | (116,649) |
| IPR&D - Teverelix | 8,717,475 |
| Net assets acquired | $7,511,469 |
All costs allocated to IPR&D by the Company were recognized as research and development expenses in the Company's consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss as these assets had no alternative future use at the time of the acquisition transaction.
12. Fair value measurements
The accounting guidance for fair value establishes a consistent framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure for each major asset and liability category measured at fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis. Fair value is defined as an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, the accounting guidance establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:
Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;
Level 2: Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets that are observable either directly or indirectly; and
Level 3: Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, or which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.
The Company's cash and cash equivalents are classified as Level 1. The fair value of the Company's cash and cash equivalents is determined based on market pricing that is both objective and publicly available. As of December 31, 2025, and 2024, the fair value of the Company's cash and cash equivalents was $8,705,218 and $4,164,323, respectively. As of December 31, 2025, and 2024, the Company's cash equivalents are invested in money market funds.
| Level 1 · Level 2 · Level 3 · Total | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Current assets: | ||||||
| Cash and cash equivalents | $8,705,218 | $ | - | $ | - | $8,705,218 |
| Total assets measured at fair value | $8,705,218 | $ | - | $ | - | $8,705,218 |
| Level 1 · Level 2 · Level 3 · Total | ||||||
| Current assets: | ||||||
| Cash and cash equivalents | $4,164,323 | $ | - | $ | - | $4,164,323 |
| Total assets measured at fair value | $4,164,323 | $ | - | $ | - | $4,164,323 |
The Company did not reclassify any investments between levels in the fair value hierarchy during the periods presented.
The carrying value of the debenture approximates the fair value since the financial instrument is short-term with a maturity date of September 17, 2026. As of December 31, 2025, and 2024, the carrying amounts of the Company's other financial instruments, which include cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair values because of their short-term maturities.
13. Commitment and contingencies
Commitments
As part of the acquisition of Antev, the Company may be required to make future payments contingent on the achievement of specified milestones. These potential payments represent a commitment and may result in future cash outflows. As these milestones conditions are not considered probable, the Company has not recognized liability related to the contingent consideration.
As of December 31, 2025, the Company had no long-term commitments.
Contingencies
In the ordinary course of business, from time to time, the Company may be involved in various claims related to operations, rights, commercial, employment or other claims. Although such matters cannot be predicted with certainty, management does not consider the Company's exposure to such claims to be material to these consolidated financial statements.
14. Segment reporting
The Company manages the business activities on a consolidated basis and operates as one reportable segment that constitutes all of the consolidated entity, which is the business of advancing the clinical development program of the Company's product, while opportunistically identifying, evaluating, and acquiring accretive assets, properties or businesses. The Company's CODM is its Chief Executive Officer. The accounting policies of the segment are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. The CODM uses consolidated net loss to measure segment loss, allocate resources and assess performance. The significant segment expense categories (general and administrative and research and development) are consistent with those presented on the face of the statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Other segment items are interest (income) expenses which are consistent with those presented on the face of the statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Additionally, the CODM reviews cash forecast models to determine where the Company will invest in planned research and development activities.
