Business Description

1. Organization and Basis of Presentation Dermata Therapeutics, Inc., (the “Company”), was formed in December 2014 as a Delaware limited liability company (“LLC”) under the name Dermata Therapeutics, LLC. On March 24, 2021, the Company converted from an LLC to a Delaware C-corporation and changed its name to Dermata Therapeutics, Inc. On August 17, 2021, the Company completed its initial public offering. The Company’s shares of Common Stock and warrants are listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) under the symbols “DRMA,” and “DRMAW,” respectively. During September 2025, the Company made a strategic shift from researching and developing prescription products to becoming a science-driven leader in dermatologic solutions anticipating the launch of its first direct-to-consumer (“DTC”) products in mid-2026. Reverse Stock Splits On July 15, 2025, the Company held its annual meeting of stockholders at which time the stockholders approved the adoption of an amendment to its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, to effect a reverse stock split of its issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock, at a specific ratio, ranging from one-for-two to one-for-thirty, with the exact ratio determined by the Company’s board of directors without further approval or authorization of its stockholders. On August 1, 2025, the Company effected the reverse split of its shares of Common Stock at a ratio of 1-for-10, as approved by the Company’s board of directors (the “2025 Reverse Stock Split”). The par value was not adjusted as a result of the 2025 Reverse Stock Split. All issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock and per share amounts contained in the financial statements have been retroactively adjusted to reflect this reverse stock split for all periods presented. On May 7, 2024, the Company held its annual meeting of stockholders at which time the stockholders approved the adoption of an amendment to its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, to effect a reverse stock split of its issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock, at a specific ratio, ranging from one-for-five to one-for-thirty, with the exact ratio determined by the Company’s board of directors without further approval or authorization of its stockholders. On May 16, 2024, the Company effected the reverse split of its shares of Common Stock at a ratio of 1-for-15, as approved by the Company’s board of directors. The par value was not adjusted as a result of the May 2024 reverse stock split. All issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock and per share amounts contained in the financial statements have been retroactively adjusted to reflect this reverse stock split for all periods presented. Liquidity and Going Concern Uncertainty Since its inception, the Company has devoted substantially all of its resources to research and development activities and has not generated any revenue or commercialized any product candidates. As of December 31, 2025, cash and cash equivalents totaled $ 7.5 million, and the Company had an accumulated deficit of $ 73.2 million. For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company used cash of approximately $ 7.8 million in operations. The Company’s existing cash and cash equivalents are expected to fund operations into the first quarter of 2027. See Note 11 – Subsequent Events regarding additional cash proceeds raised subsequent to December 31, 2025. The Company anticipates that it will continue to incur net losses for at least the next twelve months from the date of this filing. While the Company plans to launch its first product candidate in mid-2026, it is uncertain when the Company will generate operating income to sustain operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for the one-year period following the date that these financial statements were issued. Historically, the Company’s principal sources of cash have included proceeds from the issuance of equity securities and debt. The Company’s principal use of cash has been for operations, and the Company expects that the principal uses of cash in the future will be for continuing operations, marketing and commercialization activities for current and future product candidates, funding of research and development, conducting preclinical studies and clinical trials, and general working capital requirements.…
