Citius Pharmaceuticals, Inc. has amended a $3.8 million promissory note from its majority-owned subsidiary, Citius Oncology, Inc. This amendment, driven by Citius Oncology securing its own debt facility, subordinates the intercompany loan to the subsidiary's new senior debt and extends its maturity until 91 days after the senior debt is fully repaid. While this reduces the parent company's immediate liquidity and recoverability of the loan, it also eliminates prior maturity triggers tied to capital raises, providing Citius Oncology with greater financial flexibility. Additionally, Citius Pharmaceuticals gains a voluntary option to convert the loan into Citius Oncology common stock at $0.90 per share, offering potential equity upside in the subsidiary. This strategic move impacts the parent's balance sheet and reflects ongoing efforts to manage capital within its distressed financial context.
