EXPLANATORY NOTE
This Amendment No. 1 to Form 10-K (this “Form 10-K/A”) amends the Annual Report on Form 10-K of Citius Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our,” as applicable), for the year ended September 30, 2024, that we originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on December 27, 2024 (the “Original Filing”). We are filing this Form 10-K/A for the sole purpose of including Exhibit 97.1.
Pursuant to the rules of the SEC, Part IV, Item 15 (Exhibit Index) has also been amended to contain the currently dated certifications from our principal executive officer and principal financial officer pursuant to Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The certifications of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer are attached to this Form 10-K/A as Exhibits 31.3 and 31.4, respectively. Because no financial statements have been included in this Form 10-K/A and this Form 10-K/A does not contain or amend any disclosure with respect to Items 307 and 308 of Regulation S-K, we have omitted paragraphs 3, 4 and 5 of the certifications filed with this Form 10-K/A. Additionally, we are not including the certifications under Section 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, because we are not filing any financial statements with this Form 10-K/A.
Except as set forth in this Form 10-K/A, this Form 10-K/A does not amend or otherwise update any other information in the Original Filing. Other than the information specifically amended and restated herein, this Form 10-K/A does not reflect events occurring after December 27, 2024, the date of the Original Filing, or modify or update those disclosures that may have been affected by subsequent events. Accordingly, this Form 10-K/A should be read in conjunction with the Original Filing and with our filings with the SEC after the Original Filing.
