SUBJECT TO COMPLETION, DATED APRIL 27, 2026

PRELIMINARY PROSPECTUS

3,350,000 Shares of Common Stock

or Pre-Funded Warrants to Purchase 3,350,000 Shares of Common Stock

Common Stock

We are offering 3,350,000 shares of our common stock in this offering. We are also offering to purchasers, if any, whose purchase of shares of common stock in this offering would otherwise result in such purchaser, together with its affiliates and certain related parties, beneficially owning more than 4.99% (or, at the election of the purchaser, 9.99%) of our outstanding common stock immediately following the offering, the opportunity to purchase, if such purchaser chooses, pre-funded warrants to purchase 3,350,000 shares of common stock, in lieu of common stock. The purchase price of each pre-funded warrant equals the price per share of common stock being sold to the public in this offering, minus $0.00001, which is the exercise price per pre-funded warrant. The pre-funded warrants will be immediately exercisable and may be exercised at any time until all of the pre-funded warrants are exercised in full, subject to applicable ownership limits. This prospectus also relates to the offering of shares of our common stock issuable upon the exercise of such pre-funded warrants. For each pre-funded warrant we sell in this offering, the number of shares of common stock we are offering will be decreased on a one-for-one basis.

We expect to enter into a securities purchase agreement substantially concurrently with this offering, pursuant to which we will sell pre-funded warrants, with the same terms as the pre-funded warrants being offered hereby, to certain entities affiliated with Suvretta Capital in a private placement, or the PIPE. We expect the PIPE will be conducted pursuant to the exemption provided under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, and, as such, the securities to be offered thereby will not be registered pursuant to this prospectus. The underwriters are acting as placement agents in connection with the concurrent private placement and will receive a placement agent fee equal to 6.0% of the total purchase price of the private placement securities. For each pre-funded warrant we sell in the PIPE, the number of securities we are offering hereby will be decreased on a one-for-one basis. The aggregate number of securities we will issue in this offering and the PIPE will be 3,350,000. This offering is not conditioned on the closing of the PIPE.

The public offering price for each share of common stock is $ . The public offering price for each pre-funded warrant is $ , which equals the public offering price of our common stock in this offering, minus $0.00001, which is the exercise price per pre-funded warrant. Our common stock trades on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “MANE.” The last reported sale price of our common stock on the New York Stock Exchange on April 24, 2026 was $67.84. The final public offering price will be determined through negotiation between us and the lead underwriters in the offering and the recent market price used throughout the prospectus may not be indicative of the actual offering price. There is no established market for the pre-funded warrants and we do not intend to list the pre-funded warrants on any securities exchange or nationally recognized trading system, including the New York Stock Exchange.

We are an “emerging growth company” and a “smaller reporting company” as defined under federal securities laws and, as such, have elected to comply with certain reduced reporting requirements in this prospectus and may elect to do so in future filings. See “Prospectus Summary-Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company and a Smaller Reporting Company.”

Investing in our common stock and pre-funded warrants involves a high degree of risk. See “Risk Factors” beginning on page 14 of this prospectus.

Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities, or passed upon the adequacy or accuracy of this prospectus. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.
