- Financing completed ahead of schedule: the $5M private placement (Series C + warrants) finished in June 2025, accelerating funding for five Phase II imaging trials with MGH .
- Clinical enablement: completion of a one-of-a-kind lithium head coil enabling high-resolution whole-brain lithium imaging; management highlighted potential for safer dosing and reduced systemic exposure vs lithium carbonate .
“‘The successful completion of this Financing, months ahead of schedule, reflects confidence in our mission and strong belief in our vision,’” — CEO Stephan Jackman .
“‘We believe that our upcoming studies, utilizing the head coil, has the potential to broaden the application of lithium treatment across numerous neurodegenerative diseases and psychiatric disorders,’” — CEO Stephan Jackman .
What Went Wrong
- No revenues; operations remain loss-making with continued net losses given R&D and G&A spend .
- Execution friction for ALZN002: CRO terminated in Feb 2024; the company continues working to engage a new CRO, delaying that program’s progress .
- Internal controls remain a work-in-progress: company disclosed material weaknesses in ICFR, with remediation continuing (user access/change management, resourcing) .

Management Commentary
- “The capital raised will be used to support the five Phase II clinical trials of AL001 ‘Lithium in Brain’ Studies in partnership with Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School.” — CEO Stephan Jackman .
- “We believe the time and effort was necessary to allow us unprecedented knowledge as to how lithium interacts within our brains…[studies] have the potential to broaden the application of lithium treatment across numerous neurodegenerative diseases and psychiatric disorders.” — CEO Stephan Jackman on the head coil .
- “While recent market fluctuations have challenged our stock performance, I am confident that our upcoming studies will significantly advance our product candidates and enhance stockholder value.” — CEO Stephan Jackman .
Q&A Highlights
- No Q4 2025 earnings call transcript available; the company’s disclosures came via an 8-K press release and prior 10-Qs .
- Clarifications stem from filings/press releases: trial start timings (BD Q3 2025; PTSD/Alzheimer’s Q4 2025) and topline timing (healthy volunteers by YE2025) .
- Financing cadence clarified: $5M completed early in June 2025; warrants outstanding provide potential additional proceeds .
Estimates Context
- Q4 2025 S&P Global consensus: Revenue $0.0; Primary EPS -$2.70; target price $42 (one estimate). Actual S&P Global “Primary EPS” marked -$9.48 (thin coverage; methodology differences can drive discrepancies). Coverage is limited, and the company’s reported EPS per filings differs from “Primary EPS.” [Values retrieved from S&P Global]*.
- Given pre-revenue status and continued opex, estimates likely need to reflect financing terms (preferred dividends, share conversions), R&D cadence, and potential non-cash items that can swing “Primary EPS.”
Key Takeaways for Investors
- Funding runway improved: accelerated $5M financing completion and reduced liabilities materially support multi-trial AL001 execution .
- Visible clinical milestones: dosing commenced in healthy volunteers and multiple Phase II starts slated across BD, PTSD, Alzheimer’s in Q3–Q4 2025, with healthy volunteer topline by year-end 2025—a near-term data catalyst .
- Technology moat: custom head coil enables whole-brain lithium imaging with potential for better brain targeting and reduced systemic exposure vs lithium carbonate, underpinning AL001’s safety/efficacy thesis .
- Execution risk remains: ALZN002 progression slowed by CRO termination; watch for CRO re-engagement and timeline certainty .
- Controls remediation ongoing: material weaknesses in ICFR persist; monitor remediation milestones as future financings and trial operations scale .
- Trading implications (near term): expect sentiment to hinge on healthy volunteer topline by YE2025 and confirmation of Q4 2025 trial starts; thin sell-side coverage can amplify EPS headline volatility given preferred structures and non-cash items .
- Medium-term thesis: AL001’s differentiated lithium delivery and imaging validation could unlock multi-indication optionality (BD/MDD/PTSD/AD) if human brain-targeting and safety advantages translate from nonclinical to clinical outcomes .
