Item 8.01. Other Events
As previously disclosed, Salarius Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company”) has until October 20, 2025 to regain compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) (the “Equity Standard”), which requires the Company to maintain a minimum of $2.5 million in stockholders’ equity for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market.
Since June 30, 2025, the Company has issued and sold an aggregate of (i) 434,882 shares of its common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), for aggregate gross proceeds of $2.4 million pursuant to that certain At the Market Offering Agreement, dated February 5, 2021, between the Company and Ladenburg Thalmann & Co. Inc.; and (ii) 367,887 shares of its Common Stock for aggregate gross proceeds of $3.8 million pursuant to that certain Securities Purchase Agreement, dated December 12, 2024, by and between the Company and C/M Capital Master Fund, LP.
The Company believes that, as a result of the transactions described above, as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K, the Company’s stockholders’ equity exceeds $2.5 million. The Company anticipates that the information contained in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2025 will reflect stockholders’ equity in excess of $2.5 million as of September 30, 2025. The Company awaits Nasdaq’s confirmation that the Company has successfully evidenced this compliance.
The Company’s determination of stockholders’ equity is based on estimates and information available to it as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K, is not a comprehensive statement of its financial results or position as of or for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, and has not been audited, reviewed or compiled by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. The Company’s financial closing procedures for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, are not yet complete and, as a result, stockholders’ equity upon completion of its closing procedures may vary from this preliminary estimate.
Forward-Looking Statements
This Current Report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements may include, but are not limited to, statements related to whether the Company has regained compliance with the Equity Standard, which determination awaits Nasdaq’s determination, and the Company’s expectation that its stockholders’ equity will continue to exceed $2.5 million at future dates, as well as statements, other than historical facts, that address activities, events or developments that the Company intends, expects, projects, believes or anticipates will or may occur in the future. These statements are often characterized by terminology such as “believes,” “hopes,” “may,” “anticipates,” “should,” “intends,” “plans,” “will,” “expects,” “estimates,” “projects,” “positioned,” “strategy” and similar expressions and are based on assumptions and assessments made in light of management’s experience and perception of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments and other factors believed to be appropriate. Forward-looking statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K are made as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K, and the Company undertakes no duty to update or revise any such statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks and uncertainties, many of which are outside of the Company’s control. Important factors that could cause actual results, developments and business decisions to differ materially from forward-looking statements are described in the sections titled “Risk Factors” in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including its most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and include factors such as the Company’s history of noncompliance with Nasdaq listing standards and the absence of any guarantee that there will not be future noncompliance, or that the Company may not be successful in remedying such noncompliance, which may result in a delisting of the Company’s common stock and a correlative loss of market value and liquidity of the common stock.
