On October 20, 2025, ATAI Life Sciences N.V. (the “Company”) issued a press titled “atai Life Sciences Announces Closing of Public Offering and Full Exercise of Option to Purchase Additional Common Shares.” A copy of the press release is being furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K (“Form 8-K”).

 

 

 

On October 20, 2025, the Company announced the closing of the Company’s public offering (the “Offering”) of 27,283,750 common shares of the Company, nominal value €0.10 per share (the “common shares”), at a public offering price of $5.48 per share, less underwriting discounts and commissions, and inclusive of the closing of the exercise of the underwriters’ option in full to purchase an additional 3,558,750 common shares at the public offering price, less underwriting discounts and commissions. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering, together with existing cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments and other liquid assets, to advance the clinical development across its pipeline of product candidates and programs. This includes funding the planned Phase 3 clinical program for BPL-003 (mebufotenin benzoate) nasal spray through the top-line data readout from the first Phase 3 clinical trial, completing the Phase 2 clinical trial of VLS-01 (buccal film DMT) and completing the Phase 2a study for EMP-01 (oral R-MDMA) as well as for working capital and general corporate purposes. Based on this planned use of proceeds and the Company’s current operating plan, the Company estimates that its existing cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments and other liquid assets will be sufficient to fund operations into 2029.
