QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Q.Why did I receive an “Important Notice Regarding the Availability of Proxy Materials”?

In accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) rules, instead of mailing a printed copy of our proxy materials, we may send an “Important Notice Regarding the Availability of Proxy Materials” to stockholders. All stockholders will have the ability to access the proxy materials on the website referred to in the notice or to request a printed set of these materials at no charge. You will not receive a printed copy of the proxy materials unless you specifically request one from us. Instead, the notice instructs you as to how you may access and review all of the important information contained in the proxy materials via the internet and submit your vote via the internet.

Q.When is the Annual Meeting?

A.The Annual Meeting will be held at 10:00 a.m., ET, on Wednesday, June 17, 2026.

Q.Where will the Annual Meeting be held?

A.	The Annual Meeting will be held virtually by means of a live webcast, as further described herein, which can be accessed at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/fbio2026 when you enter your 16-digit control number included with the Internet Notice or proxy card.

Q.What is the purpose of the Annual Meeting?

At the Annual Meeting, our stockholders will act upon the matters outlined in the Notice of Annual Meeting of Stockholders accompanying this proxy statement, including (i) electing seven directors for a term of one year, (ii) ratifying the appointment of KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2026, and (iii) transacting any other business that may properly come before the Annual Meeting or any adjournment thereof.

Q.How many votes do I have?

A.	On each matter to be voted upon, you have one vote for each share of common stock you own as of the Record Date.

Table of Contents

Q.Who is entitled to vote at our Annual Meeting?

Only stockholders of record at the close of business on April 21, 2026, which we refer to as the Record Date, are entitled to receive notice of the Annual Meeting and to vote the shares that they held on that date at the Annual Meeting, or any adjournment or postponement thereof. As of the close of business on the Record Date, we had 33,219,072 shares of common stock outstanding. Each share of common stock entitles its holder to one vote at the Annual Meeting. A list of stockholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting may be examined at our offices located at 1111 Kane Concourse Suite 301 Bay Harbor Islands, FL 33154, between the hours of 10:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m., ET, each business day, beginning 10 days preceding the Annual Meeting, or if we determine that a physical in-person inspection is not practicable, such list of stockholders may be made available electronically, upon request.

●

Stockholders of Record: Shares Registered in Your Name. If on the Record Date your shares were registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, VStock Transfer, LLC, then you are a stockholder of record. As a stockholder of record, you may vote live during the Annual Meeting or vote by proxy. To do so, stockholders of record will need to visit www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/fbio2026 and use their 16-digit Control Number provided in the Internet Notice to log in to this website. We encourage stockholders to log in to this website and access the webcast before the Annual Meeting’s start time. Further instructions on how to attend, participate in and vote at the Annual Meeting, including how to demonstrate your ownership of our stock as of the record date, are available at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/fbio2026. Please note you will only be able to attend and vote in the meeting using this website. All references to attending the Annual Meeting “in person” in this proxy statement mean attending the live webcast at the Annual Meeting. Whether or not you plan to participate live during the Annual Meeting, we urge you to vote either by mail (if you requested a printed copy of these proxy materials to be mailed to you), via the internet or by telephone, as described in greater detail below, to ensure your vote is counted.

●

Beneficial Owner: Shares Registered in the Name of a Broker, Bank, Custodian or Other Nominee. If on the Record Date your shares were held in an account at a brokerage firm, bank, custodian or other nominee, then you are a beneficial owner of shares held in “street name” and these proxy materials are being forwarded to you by that organization. The organization holding your account is considered the stockholder of record for purposes of voting at the Annual Meeting. As a beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker, bank, custodian or other nominee on how to vote the shares in your account. You are also invited to participate live in the Annual Meeting. To do so, you will need to follow the instructions provided by the bank, brokerage firm or other nominee that holds their shares.

Q.How do I vote?

You may vote during the Annual Meeting by following the instructions posted at www.proxyvote.com and entering your 16-digit control number included with the Internet Notice or proxy card, by use of a proxy card if you receive a printed copy of our proxy materials, or via Internet or by telephone as indicated in the proxy card or Internet Notice.

Whether you hold shares directly as the stockholder of record or indirectly as the beneficial owner of shares held for you by a broker or other nominee (i.e., in “street name”), you may direct your vote without attending the Annual Meeting. You may vote by granting a proxy or, for shares you hold in street name, by submitting voting instructions to your broker or nominee. In most instances, you will be able to do this by internet, telephone or by mail. Please refer to the summary instructions below and those included on your proxy card or, for shares you hold in street name, the voting instruction card provided by your broker or nominee.

●

By Internet — If you have Internet access, you may authorize your proxy from any location in the world as directed in our Internet Notice, proxy card (if you received a paper copy of our proxy materials) or, if applicable, the voting instructions that may be described on the voting instruction card sent to you by your bank, broker or other nominee.

Table of Contents

●

By Telephone — If you are calling from the United States or Canada, you may authorize your proxy by following the “Vote by Phone” instructions on the Internet Notice, proxy card (if you received a paper copy of our proxy materials) or, if applicable, the telephone voting instructions that may be described on the voting instruction card sent to you by your bank, broker or other nominee.

●

By Mail — If you requested a printed copy of these proxy materials to be mailed to you, you may authorize your proxy by signing your proxy card and mailing it in the enclosed postage-prepaid and addressed envelope provided. For shares you hold in street name, you may sign the voting instruction card included by your broker or nominee and mail it in the envelope provided.

You may also vote live during the Annual Meeting by following the instructions posted at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/fbio2026 and entering your 16-digit control number included with the Internet Notice. If you choose to vote during the Annual Meeting, the virtual meeting platform is fully supported across browsers (Microsoft Edge, Firefox, Chrome, and Safari) and devices (desktops, laptops, tablets, and cell phones) running the most updated version of applicable software and plugins. You should ensure that you have a strong internet connection from wherever you intend to participate in the Annual Meeting.

Q.What if I have technical difficulties or trouble accessing the virtual Annual Meeting?

Our virtual platform provider will have technicians ready to assist you with any technical difficulties you may have accessing the virtual Annual Meeting. If you encounter any difficulties accessing the virtual Annual Meeting during the check-in or meeting time, please call the technical support number located on the meeting page.

Q.What is a proxy?

A proxy is a person you appoint to vote your shares on your behalf. If you are unable to attend the Annual Meeting, our Board of Directors is seeking your appointment of a proxy so that your shares may be voted. If you vote by proxy, you will be designating Lindsay A. Rosenwald, M.D., our Executive Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President, and David Jin, our Chief Financial Officer, or either of them, as your proxies. In such event, Dr. Rosenwald and/or Mr. Jin may act on your behalf and have the authority to appoint a substitute to act as your proxy.

Q.How will my shares be voted if I vote by proxy?

Your proxy will be voted according to the instructions you provide. If you complete and submit your proxy but do not otherwise provide instructions on how to vote your shares, your shares will be voted (i) “FOR” the individuals nominated to serve as members of our Board of Directors, and (ii) “FOR” the ratification of KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2026. Presently, our Board does not know of any other matter that may come before the Annual Meeting. However, your proxies are authorized to vote on your behalf, using their discretion, on any other business that properly comes before the Annual Meeting.

Q.Can I change my vote after I return my proxy card?

Yes. You may revoke your proxy at any time before the final vote at the Annual Meeting in accordance with the following instructions:

If you are the record holder of your shares, you may revoke your proxy in any one of three ways:

●

You may send a written notice that you are revoking your proxy to our General Counsel and Corporate Secretary, Sam Berry, at our address above (so long as we receive such notice no later than the close of business on the day before the Annual Meeting);

Table of Contents

●

You may submit a later-dated proxy card or vote again via the Internet or by telephone as described in the “Important Notice Regarding the Availability of Proxy Materials;” or

●

You may attend the virtual Annual Meeting and notify the election officials at the Annual Meeting that you wish to revoke your proxy and vote live during the Annual Meeting by following the instructions posted at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/fbio2026. Simply attending the Annual Meeting will not, by itself, revoke your proxy.

If your shares are held by your broker, bank, custodian or other nominee, you should follow the instructions provided by such broker, bank, custodian or other nominee.

Q.Is my vote confidential?

A.	Yes. All votes remain confidential.

Q.How are votes counted?

Before the Annual Meeting, our Board of Directors will appoint one or more inspectors of election for the meeting. The inspector(s) will determine the number of shares represented at the meeting, the existence of a quorum and the validity and effect of proxies. The inspector(s) will also receive, count, and tabulate ballots and votes and determine the results of the voting on each matter that comes before the Annual Meeting.

Q.What is the effect of abstentions or broker non-votes?

Abstentions will be treated as present for purposes of determining the existence of a quorum at the Annual Meeting. They will be considered as votes “against” any matter for which the minimum required vote for approval of that matter is (i) the affirmative vote of the majority of all outstanding shares or (ii) the affirmative vote of the majority of the shares present or represented at the meeting. They will not be considered as votes “for” or “against” any matter for which the minimum required vote for approval of that matter is the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast. Broker non-votes occur when shares are held indirectly through a broker, bank or other nominee or intermediary on behalf of a beneficial owner (referred to as held in “street name”) and the broker submits a proxy, but does not cast a vote on a matter because the broker has not received voting instructions from the beneficial owner, and (i) the broker does not have discretionary voting authority on the matter or (ii) the broker chooses not to vote on a matter for which it has discretionary voting authority. Pursuant to the rules of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), which governs brokers’ use of discretionary authority, brokers are permitted to exercise discretionary voting authority only on “routine” matters when voting instructions have not been timely received from a beneficial owner.

Only the ratification of the selection of KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2026 is considered a “routine” matter for which brokers, banks or other nominees may vote uninstructed shares. The other proposal to be voted on at the meeting, the annual election of our directors, is not considered “routine” under NYSE rules, so your broker, bank or other nominee cannot vote your shares on this proposal unless you provide to your broker, bank, or other nominee voting instructions for this matter. If you do not provide voting instructions on a non-routine matter, your shares will not be voted on that matter, which is a “broker non-vote.”

Q.What constitutes a quorum at the Annual Meeting?

In accordance with Delaware law (the law under which we are incorporated) and our Fourth Amended and Restated Bylaws, the presence at the Annual Meeting, by proxy or virtually in person, of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of the capital stock entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting constitutes a quorum, thereby permitting the stockholders to conduct business at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions, votes withheld, and shares held by brokers that are voted on any matter will be included in the calculation of the number of shares considered present at the Annual Meeting for purposes of determining the existence of a quorum. Broker-held shares that are not voted on any matter will not be included in determining whether a quorum is present.

Table of Contents

If a quorum is not present at the Annual Meeting, then the Chairman shall have power to adjourn the meeting from time to time, without notice other than announcement at the meeting, until a quorum is present or represented. If an adjournment is for more than 30 days or a new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting by our Board, we will provide notice of the adjourned meeting to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the adjourned meeting. At any adjourned meeting at which a quorum is present, any business may be transacted that might have been transacted at the originally called Annual Meeting.

Q.What vote is required to elect our directors for a one-year term?

At any meeting of our stockholders in which there is an uncontested director election, the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of stock cast (meaning the number of shares voted “for” a nominee must exceed the number of shares voted “against” such nominee) by the holders of shares of our common stock present or represented at the Annual Meeting is required for the election of each of the nominees for director. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of the vote. At any meeting of our stockholders in which there is a contested director election, a plurality of the votes cast by the holders of shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote in the election directors is required for the election of each nominee for director. Presently, our Board does not know of any other nominees other than those selected by the Board. Accordingly, we expect that the director election will be uncontested.

Q.	What vote is required to ratify KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2026?

The affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of stock present or represented at the Annual Meeting is required to approve the ratification of KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2026. Abstentions will have the same effect as a negative vote. Because the ratification of KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2026 is a “routine” proposal where brokers have discretionary authority to vote in the absence of instructions, we do not expect any broker non-votes.

Q.What percentage of our outstanding common stock do our directors and executive officers own?

A.	As of April 16, 2026, our directors and executive officers owned, or have the right to acquire, approximately 28.5% of our outstanding common stock. See the discussion under the heading “Stock Ownership of Our Directors, Executive Officers, and 5% Beneficial Owners” on page 32 for more details.

Q.	How can I find out the results of the voting of the Annual Meeting?

A.	We will announce preliminary voting results at the Annual Meeting. We will also disclose voting results on a Form 8-K filed with the SEC, within four business days of the Annual Meeting.

Q.	Who was our independent public accountant for the year ending December 31, 2025? Will they be represented at the Annual Meeting?

A.	KPMG LLP was our independent public accountant for the year ended December 31, 2025, and we expect a representative of KPMG LLP to be present virtually at the Annual Meeting. The representative will have an opportunity to make a statement and will be available to answer your questions.

Table of Contents

Q.	Who is paying for this proxy solicitation?

We will pay the entire cost of preparing, assembling, printing, mailing, and distributing these proxy materials and soliciting votes. If you choose to vote over the internet, you are responsible for internet access charges you may incur. If you choose to vote by telephone, you are responsible for telephone charges you may incur. In addition to the mailing of these proxy materials, the solicitation of proxies or votes may be made in person, by telephone or by electronic communication by our directors, officers and employees, who will not receive any additional compensation for such solicitation activities, and also by our proxy solicitation firm who we have retained for that purpose, to whom we will pay a fee.

Q.	How can I obtain a copy of our annual report on Form 10-K?

We have filed our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, with the SEC. The annual report on Form 10-K is also available on the website referred to in the Internet Notice, in the “Investors” section of our website at www.fortressbiotech.com, and on the website of the SEC at www.sec.gov. You may obtain, free of charge, a copy of our annual report on Form 10-K, including financial statements and exhibits, by writing to our General Counsel and Corporate Secretary, Sam Berry, or by email at info@fortressbiotech.com. Upon request, we will also furnish any exhibits to the Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the SEC.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Our Board of Directors

Our Fourth Amended and Restated Bylaws provide that the Board shall consist of no less than one (1) and no more than nine (9) members, as determined from time to time by resolution of the Board. Currently, our Board consists of seven (7) members, comprising our seven director nominees. The following individuals are being nominated to serve on our Board (See “Proposal 1 — Election of Directors; Nominees”):


Name of Director Nominee	Age	Title	Director Since
Lindsay A. Rosenwald, M.D.	71	Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer	October 2009
Jimmie Harvey, Jr., M.D.	74	Director	December 2008
Malcolm Hoenlein	82	Director	February 2014
Dov Klein, CPA	74	Director	July 2015
J. Jay Lobell	63	Director	June 2006
Kevin L. Lorenz, J.D.	61	Director	August 2019
Michael S. Weiss	60	Director and Executive Vice Chairman, Strategic Development	December 2013

The Board does not have a formal policy regarding the separation of the roles of Chief Executive Officer and Executive Chairman, as the Board believes that it is in the best interests of the Company to make that determination based on the direction of the Company and the current membership of the Board. The Board has determined that having a director who is an executive officer serve as the Chairman is in the best interest of the Company’s stockholders at this time.

We have a risk management program overseen by both Lindsay A. Rosenwald, M.D., our Executive Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President, and the Board. Dr. Rosenwald and management identify material risks and prioritize them for our Board. Our Board regularly reviews information regarding our credit, liquidity, operations, and compliance as well as the risks associated with each.

Table of Contents

The following biographies set forth the names of our directors and director nominees, their ages, the year in which they first became directors, their positions with us, their principal occupations and employers for at least the past five years, any other directorships held by them during the past five years in companies that are subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), or any company registered as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as well as additional information, all of which we believe sets forth each director nominee’s qualifications to serve on the Board. None of our executive officers or directors is related to any of our other executive officers or directors by blood, marriage, or adoption. There are no arrangements or understandings between any of our executive officers or directors and any other person pursuant to which any of them are elected as an officer or director, except as disclosed below.

Fortress adheres to the corporate governance standards adopted by The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”). Nasdaq rules require our Board to make an affirmative determination as to the independence of each director. Consistent with these rules, our Board completed its annual review of director independence on March 30, 2026. During the review, our Board considered relationships and transactions during 2025 and during the past three fiscal years between each director or any member of his or her immediate family, on the one hand, and the Company and our partner companies and affiliates, on the other hand. The purpose of this review was to determine whether any such relationships or transactions were inconsistent with a determination that the director is independent. Based on this review, our Board determined that Dr. Harvey and Messrs. Hoenlein, Klein, Lobell, and Lorenz are independent under the criteria established by Nasdaq and our Board.

The Audit Committee currently consists of Messrs. Klein (chair) and Lobell, and Dr. Harvey. During 2025, the Audit Committee held four meetings and separately took action by unanimous written consent one time. The duties and responsibilities of the Audit Committee are set forth in the Charter of the Audit Committee which was recently reviewed by our Audit Committee. Our Audit Committee determined that no revisions needed to be made to the charter at this time. A copy of the Charter of the Audit Committee is available on our website, located at www.fortressbiotech.com, under the Investors – Governance – Governance Documents section.

The SEC and Nasdaq have established rules and regulations regarding the composition of audit committees and the qualifications of audit committee members. Our Board of Directors has examined the composition of our Audit Committee and the qualifications of our Audit Committee members in light of the current rules and regulations governing audit committees. Based upon this examination, our Board of Directors has determined that each member of our Audit Committee is independent and is otherwise qualified to be a member of our Audit Committee in accordance with the rules of the SEC and Nasdaq.

Additionally, the SEC requires that at least one member of the Audit Committee have a “heightened” level of financial and accounting sophistication. Such a person is known as the “audit committee financial expert” under the SEC’s rules. Our Board has determined that Mr. Klein is an “audit committee financial expert,” as the SEC defines that term, and is an independent member of our Board of Directors and our Audit Committee. Please see Mr. Klein’s biography above for a description of his relevant experience.

The Compensation Committee held one meeting, and separately took action by unanimous written consent one time, during 2025. The Compensation Committee currently consists of Messrs.

A copy of the charter of the Compensation Committee is available on the Company’s website, located at www.fortressbiotech.com, under the Investors — Governance — Governance Documents section. As discussed in its charter, among other things, the duties and responsibilities of the Compensation Committee include annually evaluating the performance of the Chief Executive Officer and our other executive officers, determining the overall compensation of the Chief Executive Officer and our other executive officers and administering all executive compensation programs, including, but not limited to, our incentive and equity-based plans. In addition to executive compensation, the Compensation Committee also annually reviews and makes recommendations to the Board of Directors with respect to non-executive officer and director compensation. The Compensation Committee also reviews and discusses with management the compensation disclosures in our proxy statement and reviews and approves the say on pay and frequency proposals to be periodically included in our proxy statement. The results of such say-on-pay vote are taken into account by the Compensation Committee, as required by Section 14A of the Exchange Act, in determining executive compensation. The Compensation Committee applies discretion in the determination of individual executive compensation packages to ensure compliance with the Company’s compensation philosophy. The Chief Executive Officer makes recommendations to the Compensation Committee with respect to the compensation packages for officers other than himself. The Compensation Committee may delegate its authority to grant awards to certain employees, and within specified parameters under the Compensation Committee Charter, to a special committee consisting of one or more directors who may but need not be officers of the Company. The Compensation Committee periodically reviews the Company’s compensation policies and practices to evaluate whether they encourage excessive risk-taking and to align them with the Company’s risk management and governance objectives. The Compensation Committee has authority to retain and terminate compensation consultants, legal counsel and other advisors, approve their fees, and consider their independence and any conflicts of interest in accordance with applicable SEC and Nasdaq requirements.

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is currently composed of Messrs. Lobell (chair), Hoenlein and Klein. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee held no meetings during 2025, and there were no actions taken by unanimous written consent on a standalone basis by the committee during 2025. The functions of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee include, among other things:

●

making recommendations to the Board of Directors regarding the size and composition of the Board of Directors;

●

developing minimum qualifications for director candidates and evaluating such candidates in such a manner as the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee deems appropriate;

●

except where otherwise required, selecting candidates for election to the Board of Directors and to fill any vacancies on the Board of Directors, such selected candidates to then be voted by the Board of Directors;

●

establishing procedures for the nomination process;

●

establishing and administering periodic assessment procedures relating to the performance of the Board of Directors as a whole and its individual members; and

Table of Contents

●

making recommendations to the Board of Directors regarding corporate governance matters and practices, including formulating and periodically reviewing corporate governance guidelines to be adopted by the Board of Directors.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board of Directors is responsible for establishing the qualifications for director candidates. The Committee does not have a formal policy on Board of Directors candidate qualifications. It may consider those factors it deems appropriate in evaluating director nominees made either by the Board of Directors or stockholders, including judgment, skill, strength of character, experience with businesses and organizations comparable in size or scope to the Company, experience and skills relative to other Board of Directors’ members, specialized knowledge or experience, and diversity. Depending upon the current needs of the Board of Directors, certain factors may be weighed more or less heavily than others. In considering candidates for the Board of Directors, the directors evaluate the entirety of each candidate’s credentials and do not currently have any specific minimum qualifications that must be met. The directors will consider candidates from any reasonable source, including current Board of Directors’ members, stockholders, professional search firms or other persons. The directors will not evaluate candidates differently based on who made the recommendation. Our policy describing our director nomination process is included in our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee Charter, which is available on the Company’s website, located at www.fortressbiotech.com, under the Investors — Governance — Governance Documents section. We believe that the current process in place functions effectively to select director nominees who will be valuable members of our Board of Directors. We identify potential nominees to serve as directors through a variety of business contacts, including current executive officers, directors, community leaders and stockholders. We may, to the extent appropriate, retain a professional search firm or other advisors to identify potential nominees.

We will also consider candidates recommended by stockholders for nomination to our Board. A stockholder who wishes to recommend a candidate for nomination to our Board must submit such recommendation to our General Counsel and Corporate Secretary, Sam Berry, at our offices located at 1111 Kane Concourse, Suite 301, Bay Harbor Islands, FL 33154. Any recommendation must be received not less than 45 calendar days nor more than 75 calendar days before the anniversary date of the previous year’s annual meeting. All stockholder recommendations of candidates for nomination for election to our Board must be in writing and must set forth the following: (i) the candidate’s name, age, business address, and other contact information, (ii) the number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by the candidate, (iii) the date or dates such shares were acquired and the investment intent of such acquisition, (iv) a complete description of the candidate’s qualifications, experience, background and affiliations, as would be required to be disclosed in the proxy statement pursuant to Schedule 14A under the Exchange Act, (v) a written statement by the candidate in which he or she consents to being named in the proxy statement as a nominee and to serve as director if elected, and (vi) the name and address of the stockholder(s) of record making such a recommendation.

We believe that our Board as a whole should encompass a range of talent, skill, and expertise enabling it to provide sound guidance with respect to our operations and interests. Our independent directors evaluate all director candidates by reviewing their biographical information and qualifications. If the independent directors determine that a candidate is qualified to serve on our Board, such candidate is interviewed by at least one of the independent directors and our Chief Executive Officer. Other members of the Board also have an opportunity to interview qualified candidates. The independent directors then determine, based on the background information and the information obtained in the interviews, whether to recommend to the Board that the candidate be nominated for approval by the stockholders to fill a directorship. With respect to an incumbent director whom the independent directors are considering as a potential nominee for re-election, the independent directors review and consider the incumbent director’s service during his or her term, including the number of meetings attended, level of participation, and overall contribution to the Board. The manner in which the independent directors evaluate a potential nominee does not differ based on whether the candidate is recommended by our directors or stockholders.

Table of Contents

We consider the following qualifications, among others, when making a determination as to whether a person should be nominated to our Board: the independence of the director nominee; the director nominee’s character and integrity; financial literacy; level of education and business experience, including experience relating to biopharmaceutical companies; whether the director nominee has sufficient time to devote to our Board; and the director nominee’s commitment to represent the long-term interests of our stockholders. We review candidates in the context of the current composition of the Board and the evolving needs of our business. We believe that each of the current members of our Board (all of whom are director nominees) has the requisite business, biopharmaceutical, financial or managerial experience to serve as a member of the Board, as described above in their biographies under the heading “Our Board of Directors.” We also believe that each of the current members of our Board has other key attributes that are important to an effective board, including integrity, high ethical standards, sound judgment, analytical skills, and the commitment to devote significant time and energy to service on the Board and its committees.

Code of Business Conduct and Ethics

We have adopted the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, or the Code, which applies to all of our directors, officers and employees, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer. The Code includes guidelines dealing with the ethical handling of conflicts of interest, compliance with federal and state laws, financial reporting, and our proprietary information. The Code also contains procedures for dealing with and reporting violations of the Code. We have posted our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics under the Investors — Governance — Governance Documents section of the Company’s website, located at www.fortressbiotech.com. Any changes to or waivers of the Code of Ethics will be posted at that website.

Insider Trading Policy Prohibiting Hedging and Speculative Trading

We maintain an insider trading policy (“Insider Trading Policy”) that governs the purchase, sale and other dispositions of our securities by the Company, directors, officers and employees. Our Insider Trading Policy is designed to promote compliance with insider trading laws, rules and regulations and any applicable listing standards. Additionally, pursuant to our Insider Trading Policy, our officers, directors, and employees are prohibited from engaging in speculative trading, including hedging transactions or short sale transactions with respect to Company securities.

INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM FEES AND OTHER MATTERS

KPMG LLP (“KPMG”) has served as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm since September 28, 2021. We expect a representative of KPMG to be present at the Annual Meeting. The representative will have an opportunity to make a statement, if he or she desires to do so, and will be available to answer your questions.

Our Board has asked the stockholders to ratify the selection of KPMG as our independent registered public accounting firm. See “Proposal Two: Ratification of Appointment of KPMG as Our Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm” on page 34 of this proxy statement.

Pre-Approval of Services

Our Audit Committee has established a policy setting forth the procedures under which services provided by our independent registered public accounting firm will be pre-approved by our Audit Committee. The potential services that might be provided by our independent registered public accounting firm fall into two categories:

●

Services that are permitted, including the audit of our annual financial statements, the review of our quarterly financial statements, comfort letters, related attestations, benefit plan audits and similar audit reports, financial and other due diligence on acquisitions, and federal, state, and non-US tax services;

●

Services that may be permitted, subject to individual pre-approval, including compliance and internal-control reviews, indirect tax services such as transfer pricing and customs and duties, and forensic auditing; and

●

Services that our independent registered public accounting firm may not provide include such services as bookkeeping, certain human resources services, internal audit outsourcing, and investment or investment banking advice.

All proposed engagements of our independent registered public accounting firm, whether for audit services or permissible non-audit services, are pre-approved by the Audit Committee. We jointly prepare a schedule with our independent registered public accounting firm that outlines services which we reasonably expect we will need from our independent registered public accounting firm and categorize them according to the classifications described above. Each service identified is reviewed and approved or rejected by the Audit Committee.

REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE

In monitoring the preparation of our financial statements, the Audit Committee met with management and representatives of KPMG LLP, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, to review and discuss all financial statements prior to their issuance and to discuss any and all significant accounting issues. Management and our independent registered public accounting firm advised the Audit Committee that all of the financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The Audit Committee’s review included a discussion of the matters required to be discussed pursuant to Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) Auditing Standard 1301 (Communication with Audit Committees). Auditing Standard 1301 requires our independent registered public accounting firm to discuss with the Audit Committee, among other things, the following:

●

Methods used to account for significant or unusual transactions;

●

The effect of any accounting policies in controversial or emerging areas for which there is a lack of authoritative guidance or consensus;

●

The process used by management to formulate sensitive accounting estimates and the basis for the independent registered public accounting firm’s conclusion regarding the reasonableness of any such estimates; and

●

Any disagreements with management over the application of accounting principles, the basis for management’s accounting estimates and the disclosures necessary in the financial statements.

The Audit Committee has discussed the independence of KPMG LLP for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, including the written disclosures made by KPMG LLP to the Audit Committee, as required by PCAOB Rule 3526, “Communication with Audit Committees Concerning Independence.” PCAOB Rule 3526 requires the independent registered public accounting firm to (i) disclose in writing all relationships that, in the independent registered public accounting firm’s professional opinion, may reasonably be thought to bear on independence, (ii) confirm their perceived independence, and (iii) engage in a discussion of independence with the Audit Committee.

Finally, the Audit Committee continues to monitor the scope and adequacy of our internal controls and other procedures, including any and all proposals for adequate staffing and for strengthening internal procedures and controls where appropriate and necessary. These measures include, without limitation, a quarterly review of related party transactions and relationships pursuant to regularly-updated reports prepared by the Company’s internal legal counsel and Chief Financial Officer.

On the basis of these reviews and discussions, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board that it approve the inclusion of our audited financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, for filing with the SEC.

Represents the aggregate grant date fair value of equity-based awards granted by the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries, computed in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718, Stock Compensation, as modified or supplemented (“FASB ASC Topic 718”), using the assumptions set forth in Note 13 to the audited financial statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. In accordance with the terms of the LTIP (as defined below), Dr. Rosenwald and Mr. Weiss were each awarded 475,163 shares of restricted common stock of the Company (equal to one percent (1%) of the total outstanding shares of the Company as of the grant date) for their performance in 2025. Furthermore, Dr. Rosenwald and Mr. Weiss were each awarded 12,195 shares of restricted Checkpoint common stock for their roles on the board of directors for the year ended December 31, 2025, which awards vested in full in 2025 in connection with Checkpoint’s merger with Sun Pharmaceuticals Industries Limited. Additionally, Dr. Rosenwald received 57,173 restricted stock units of Journey common stock for his role on the board of directors for the year ended December 31, 2025.

All Other Compensation for 2025 for Mr. Weiss, in each case to an LLC wholly-owned by Mr. Weiss, comprises $30,000 cash fees received for his service as Chairman of the Board of Checkpoint, and $60,000 in cash fees received for his service as Chairman of the Board and Executive Chairman of Mustang.

Summary of Material Components of Compensation Program

The Company believes in providing to its executive management team a competitive total compensation package featuring a combination of elements. The executive compensation programs are designed to achieve the following objectives:

●

reward performance;

●

attract, motivate and retain executives of outstanding ability and potential; and

●

ensure that executive compensation is rationally related to building stockholder value.

The Board of Directors believes that the Company’s executive compensation programs should include short- and long-term components, including cash and equity-based compensation, and should reward consistent performance that meets or exceeds expectations.

Base Salaries

Base salaries for the Company’s executives are initially established through arm’s-length negotiation at the time the executive is hired, taking into account such executive’s qualifications, experience, prior salary, the scope of his or her responsibilities, and competitive market compensation paid by other companies for similar positions within the industry. Base salaries are reviewed annually, typically in connection with the annual performance review process, and adjusted from time to time to realign salaries with market levels after taking into account individual responsibilities, performance, and experience. While other of the Company’s executives are paid salaries typical within the industry for persons of their experience and expertise, Dr. Rosenwald and Mr. Weiss have elected to largely forego the payment of salary from the Company.

Annual Discretionary Bonuses

In addition to the payment of base salaries, the Company believes that discretionary bonuses can play an important role in providing appropriate incentives to its executives to achieve the Company’s strategic objectives.

Amended and Restated Long Term Incentive Plan

The Fortress Biotech, Inc. Amended and Restated Long Term Incentive Plan (as amended, the “LTIP”) is designed to compensate Dr. Rosenwald and Mr. Weiss based on their responsibilities and for their contributions to the successful achievement of certain corporate goals and objectives of the Company. The LTIP awards are intended to enable each executive to share in the successes and risks of the Company. Eligible participants in the LTIP include Dr. Rosenwald, Mr. Weiss, or any limited liability company or limited partnership owned and controlled by Dr. Rosenwald or Mr. Weiss, provided such entity has a bona fide service provider relationship with the Company (“Eligible Entities” and together with Dr. Rosenwald and Mr. Weiss, the “LTIP Participants”).

On January 1 of each year, until and including 2035, the LTIP entitles the Company to grant restricted shares of common stock of the Company to each of the LTIP Participants equal to up to one percent (1%) of the total outstanding shares of common stock of the Company, such actual amount to be based upon the achievement of the goals and objectives of each individual as set by the Compensation Committee for the preceding year. In the case of the LTIP Participants, such goals and objectives include, among other things: the Company’s in-licensing of new medical technologies of substantial promise; operational and cash management; the Company’s issuance of new debt securities; the Company’s achievement of developmental, regulatory and clinical milestones in respect of its in-licensed technologies; the recruitment and retention of personnel; share price performance; trading volume of the Company’s public securities; and the overall positioning of the Company within its relevant market.

Table of Contents

Each tranche of restricted shares granted under the LTIP after July 15, 2025 vests upon (i) the Company achieving a market capitalization following the grant date that is $100,000,000 greater than the Company’s market capitalization on July 16, 2025 and (ii) the participant remaining in service with the Company until (or being involuntarily terminated prior to) July 16, 2035. Each such award would also vest upon a change in control of the Company before July 16, 2035, provided the eligible participant remains in service with the Company until the date of such transaction. If any restricted shares do not vest as described above, they will be subject to a repurchase option by the Company at a nominal price for 90 days following the earlier of July 16, 2035 or the participant’s voluntary separation from service with the Company.

In addition, pursuant to the LTIP, upon the formation of each new subsidiary of the Company, the LTIP Participants are to each receive five percent (5%) of the total outstanding shares of common stock of such subsidiary.

In 2025, at expiration of the original 10-year term of the LTIP, Messrs. Rosenwald and Weiss each held 348,838 shares previously granted under 10 separate annual awards under the LTIP. Those shares were scheduled to vest on July 15, 2025, subject to the conditions that each executive remain employed by us as of such date and that the Company’s market capitalization, as measured at any time after the grant date of a given annual award, had exceeded by $100 million its market capitalization on July 16, 2015 (provided, however, that the Company must have exercised its repurchase option with respect to any unvested annual award within 90 days after July 15, 2025 or those shares would vest to the LTIP participants). While the service condition was met with respect to each annual award under such original 10-year LTIP term, the market capitalization condition was not met with respect to each such annual award. However, the Board opted not to exercise its repurchase option within the aforementioned 90-day period, allowing all shares to vest to each LTIP participant.

Retirement Plans

We maintain a tax-qualified retirement plan (the “401(k)”) plan for eligible employees, including our named executive officers. Eligible employees may make voluntary contributions from their eligible pay and may defer up to 86% of their annual compensation, up to certain limitations imposed by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. We match employee contributions in an amount up to 4% of the employee’s eligible compensation. All such employee contributions and matching contributions are immediately and fully vested.

Equity Incentive Compensation

The Company believes that by providing its executives the opportunity to increase their ownership of Company stock, the interests of its executives will be more closely aligned with the best interests of the Company’s stockholders, encouraging long-term performance. The stock awards enable the executive officers to participate in the appreciation of the value of the Company’s stock, while personally participating in the risks of business setbacks. The Company grants equity awards to its executives pursuant to the Fortress Biotech, Inc. 2013 Stock Incentive Plan, as has been amended from time to time (the “2013 Plan”).

While the Company has awarded stock options to the executive officers as incentives in the past, it more recently has awarded restricted stock or restricted stock units (“RSUs”) to its executives. These RSUs or restricted stock awards generally vest in installments over a period of several years. Several of the Company’s subsidiaries also periodically grant awards of stock options, restricted stock or RSUs to executive officers of the Company in respect of their service as officers or directors of those subsidiaries.

Summary of Employment or Agreements and Arrangements

Executive Employment Agreements

The Company has not entered into employment agreements with any of Dr. Rosenwald, Mr. Weiss, or Mr. Jin.

Clawback Policy

Pursuant to Nasdaq listing requirements, we have adopted a policy providing for the recovery of erroneously awarded incentive-based compensation received by our executive officers or the executive officers of one of our subsidiaries during an applicable recovery period (the “Clawback Policy”). Under the Clawback Policy, in the event that financial results upon which a cash or equity-based incentive award was based becomes the subject of a financial restatement that is required because of material non-compliance with financial reporting requirements, the Compensation Committee will conduct a review of awards covered by the Clawback Policy and recoup any erroneously awarded incentive-based compensation to ensure that the ultimate award reflects the financial results as restated. The Clawback Policy covers any cash or equity-based incentive compensation award that was paid, earned or granted to covered executive officers during the last completed three fiscal years immediately preceding the date on which we are required to prepare the accounting restatement.

Timing of Equity Awards

While we have no set policy or practice regarding the timing of stock option awards or similar instruments in relation to the disclosure of material nonpublic information, we do not time the release of material information to affect the value of stock options. In general, the timing of stock option awards is dictated by the event or circumstance giving rise to the award and the schedules of the directors responsible for approving the award. In 2025, options were not issued to our named executive officers during the period beginning four business days before and ending one business day after the filing of a Form 10-Q, Form 10-K or Form 8-K that discloses material nonpublic information. If, in the future, a stock option grant is made at a time that material nonpublic information exists, the directors approving the award would be responsible for considering the anticipated effect of that information on our stock price and would take such effect into account when sizing and pricing the award.

PAY VERSUS PERFORMANCE

The following table shows the past three fiscal years’ total compensation for our named executive officers as set forth in the Summary Compensation Table, the “compensation actually paid” to our named executive officers (as determined under SEC rules), our total shareholder return (“TSR”), and our net income.

SEC rules require certain adjustments be made to the Summary Compensation Table totals to determine Compensation Actually Paid as reported in the Pay Versus Performance Table. Compensation Actually Paid does not necessarily represent cash and/or equity value transferred to the applicable named executive officer without restriction, but rather is a valuation calculated under applicable SEC rules. In general, Compensation Actually Paid is calculated as summary compensation table total compensation adjusted to (a) include the value of any pension benefit (or loss) attributed to the past fiscal year, including on account of any amendments adopted during such year; and (b) include the fair market value of equity awards as of December 31, 2025 or, if earlier, the vesting date (rather than the grant date) and factor in dividends and interest accrued with respect to such awards, if applicable. For purposes of the disclosure below, no pension valuation adjustments were required.
