Note 1 - Organization, Plan of Business Operations
Avenue Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company” or “Avenue”) was incorporated in Delaware on February 9, 2015, as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Fortress Biotech, Inc. (“Fortress”). Avenue is a specialty pharmaceutical company focused on the development and commercialization of therapies for the treatment of neurologic diseases. Avenue's current product candidates are clenbuterol ("ATX-04"), a selective β2-adrenergic agonist for Pompe disease, intravenous tramadol (“IV tramadol”) for the treatment of post-operative acute pain and previously, through November 5, 2025, BAER-101 for the treatment of epilepsy and panic disorders.
Since March 2025, the Company’s common stock has been quoted on the over-the-counter market (OTCID) under the symbol “ATXI”.
Going Concern
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The going concern assumption contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. However, as described below, substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern exists.
The Company is not yet generating revenue, has incurred substantial operating losses since its inception and expects to continue to incur significant operating losses for the foreseeable future as it executes its product development plan and may never become profitable. As of March 31, 2026, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $106.2 million. Due to uncertainties regarding future operations of the Company for the development of ATX-04 and a potential Phase 3 safety study for IV tramadol, the Company will need to secure additional funds through equity or debt offerings, the timing of which is unknown at this time. The Company cannot be certain that additional funding will be available to it on acceptable terms, or at all. These factors individually and collectively cause substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern to exist within one year from the date of this report. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the carrying amounts and classification of assets, liabilities, and reported expenses that may be necessary if the Company were unable to continue as a going concern. |
