On September 2, 2025, NRx Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release, which in part provides that the Company recently raised an aggregate total of approximately $8.8 million. The Company is filing this current report on Form 8-K to provide ministerial clarification that the aggregate total is comprised of gross proceeds raised through the Company’s registered direct common stock offering announced in August 2025, as well as the utilization by the Company of its at-the-market offering program since the current fiscal quarter began on July 1, 2025, each of which include no warrants, repricing adjustments, or other variable rate features. The substantial majority of the $8.8 million in gross proceeds raised through the sale of common stock was placed with experienced biotech investors. A copy of the Press Release is furnished hereto as Exhibit 99.1. The Company will revert to reporting its gross proceeds raised under its ATM in the ordinary course via its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q.
