## Exhibit 99.1

**Exhibit 99.1**

**NeOnc Technologies Holdings, Inc. Announces ~ $300,000 in Insider Purchases of NTHI Stock by**

**Chairman and CEO; Company Provides Context on 2025 Financial Results**

***Insider buying indicates management's conviction in undervalued shares ahead of multiple near-term catalysts:***

***●***  ***NEO100: interim data readout - expected within ~4 months*** 

***●***  ***NEO212: expects Type B End-of-Phase FDA meeting to align on a potential pivotal, registrational Phase 2 study - within the next 4 weeks*** 

CALABASAS, Calif., April 14, 2026 — NeOnc Technologies Holdings, Inc. ("NTHI" or the "Company"), a multi-Phase 2 clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing novel therapies for central nervous system (CNS) cancers, today announced that Chairman and CEO Amir Heshmatpour has purchased approximately $300,000 worth of NTHI stock in the last week, demonstrating management's confidence in the Company's undervalued shares, ahead of multiple near-term catalysts which include:

● NEO100 - interim data readout – expected within ~4 months

● NEO212 - Type B End-of-Phase FDA meeting to align on a potential pivotal, registrational Phase 2 study – expected within the next 4 weeks

The company is also providing additional context regarding the year-over-year change in operating expenses reflected in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, filed on March 31, 2026.

For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, the Company reported a net loss of approximately $62 million, of which roughly 73% was attributable to non-cash stock-based compensation and one-time listing-related advisory fees, resulting in normalized ongoing cash operating expenses of approximately $10.1 million for the year.

Specifically, the $45.2 million in non-cash and non-recurring charges consisted of approximately $35.6 million in stock-based compensation associated with the 2023 Equity Plan and approximately $9.6 million in one-time advisory fees related to the Company's public listing. The stock-based compensation charge covers a three-year period and includes awards granted to employees, executives, and key contributors as part of the Company's long-term incentive and retention strategy. This expense does not consume cash and does not reduce the Company's liquidity. The $9.6 million in listing-related advisory fees is a cash expense but is non-recurring in nature and is not expected to continue in future periods.

The normalized cash operating expenses figure referenced above is a non-GAAP measure presented to help investors evaluate the Company's underlying operational cost structure.

Subsequent to year-end, the Company completed a private placement financing during the first quarter of 2026, raising gross proceeds of approximately $13.0 million. The Company used a portion of the proceeds to strengthen its balance sheet by repaying outstanding short-term convertible debt and satisfying certain accrued obligations. Management believes this financing, combined with ongoing expense management initiatives, positions the Company to continue advancing key clinical milestones.

"In 2025, we advanced our clinical programs while completing our transition to a public company," said Keithly Garnett, Chief Financial Officer of NeOnc Technologies Inc. "While reported net loss reflects significant non-cash and listing-related charges, our focus remains on disciplined capital allocation and advancing NEO100 and NEO212 through important clinical inflection points. Following our first quarter 2026 financing, we are prioritizing efficient deployment of capital toward value-creating milestones."

NeOnc remains focused on efficiently deploying capital to achieve key clinical milestones and drive long-term shareholder value.
