Analysis · KTTA · Life Sciences
Pasithea Therapeutics stockholders approved a reverse stock split at the annual meeting, giving the board discretion to implement a ratio between 1:2 and 1:20 at any time before September 9, 2027. This is the key mechanism the company will use to regain Nasdaq's $1.00 minimum bid price requirement, which it must satisfy by February 16, 2027 under the extension granted in August. The approval removes the final hurdle before the board can act — the exact ratio and timing are now entirely at management's discretion. With the stock trading at $0.5697, a reverse split is the most direct path to compliance, though it does not change the company's underlying market capitalization or business fundamentals.
