AUSTIN, Texas–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Anebulo Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: ANEB), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing novel solutions for people suffering from acute cannabinoid-induced toxicities (the “Company” or “Anebulo”), today announces an update on its current going private transaction.
After announcing a going private transaction on July 23, 2025, the Company received inbound interest from potential financial and strategic partners. Consistent with our commitment to maximize stockholder value, the Board will review all strategic alternatives available to the Company, including the proposed going private transaction and related reverse stock split, a sale of the Company’s assets and/or a merger transaction. While the strategic review process is ongoing, we currently plan to move forward with holding a special stockholder meeting to approve the proposed reverse stock split.
There can be no assurance that this process will result in the Company pursuing a transaction or any other strategic outcome. There is no deadline or definitive timetable set for completion of the strategic alternatives review process. Similarly, even if the Company’s stockholders approve the reverse stock split at the special meeting, the Board could determine to abandon the reverse stock split for any reason.

About Anebulo Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
Anebulo Pharmaceuticals, Inc. is a clinical-stage pharmaceutical company developing novel solutions for people suffering from cannabis-induced toxicity. Its lead product candidate, selonabant, has completed a Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating its utility in blocking and reversing the negative effects of acute cannabinoid intoxication in healthy adults challenged with oral THC. Rather than proceeding directly with Phase 3 studies of oral selonabant in adults with ACI, the Company is prioritizing the advancement of a selonabant IV formulation as a potential treatment for pediatric patients with acute cannabis-induced toxicity, which it believes offers the potential for a faster timeline to approval relative to the adult oral product. Anebulo is currently scaling up the intravenous formulation for initial clinical safety studies. Selonabant is a competitive antagonist at the human CB1 receptor.
