**Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.**

On February 13, 2026, Citius Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the "Company," "we" or "our") issued a press release announcing our results of operations for the first quarter of fiscal 2026. A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this report and is incorporated herein by reference.

The information in this Item 2.02 (including Exhibit 99.1) shall not be deemed "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.

**Item 3.01. Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.**

On February 9, 2026, Nasdaq Stock Market LLC ("Nasdaq") notified the Company that for the last 30 consecutive business days, the bid price for the Company's common stock had closed below the minimum $1.00 per share requirement for continued inclusion on the Nasdaq Capital Market pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the "Bid Price Rule").

In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company has a compliance period of 180 calendar days, or until August 10, 2026, to regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule. If at any time before August 10, 2026, the bid price of the Company's common stock closes at $1.00 per share or more for a minimum of ten consecutive business days, Nasdaq will provide the Company with written confirmation of compliance with the Bid Price Rule.

If the Company does not regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule by August 10, 2026, the Company may be eligible for an additional 180-day compliance period. To qualify, the Company would be required to meet the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other initial listing standards for the Nasdaq Capital Market, with the exception of the Bid Price Rule, and would need to provide written notice of its intention to cure the bid price deficiency during the second compliance period by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary.

If the Company does not regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule when required, Nasdaq will provide written notification to the Company that its common stock is subject to delisting. At that time, the Company may appeal the delisting determination to a Nasdaq hearings panel.

The notice from Nasdaq has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company's common stock and its common stock will continue to be listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol "CTXR". The Company is currently evaluating its options for regaining compliance. There can be no assurance that the Company will regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule or maintain compliance with any of the other Nasdaq continued listing requirements.

**Citius Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Announces First Reported Revenue Following Successful Launch of LYMPHIR™**

*Company reports $3.9 million in revenue generated from initial sales in December 2025 and provides first fiscal quarter 2026 financial results*

**CRANFORD, N.J.**, February 13, 2026– Citius Pharmaceuticals, Inc.

"I am thrilled to report that we have successfully transitioned to a revenue generating company following Citius Oncology's December 2025 launch of LYMPHIR. We recorded $3.9 million in revenue during the quarter, reflecting the initial sales at Citius Oncology's nationwide network of distributors. This milestone is the result of years of focused execution designed to translate innovation into tangible value for the cutaneous T-cell community and Citius stakeholders alike. I congratulate the entire Citius team on an outstanding effort to bring LYMPHIR to market," said Leonard Mazur, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Citius Oncology and Citius Pharma.

"While we are still in the early stages of the launch, we expect momentum to build as we continue to stand up the full commercial organization and more fully deploy our technology-driven platform to expand patient access and drive market penetration. Looking ahead, we see multiple avenues for growth, including encouraging early signals from investigator-initiated studies, opportunities to expand access in international markets, and the potential to build a durable oncology franchise. Most importantly, LYMPHIR now offers patients living with cutaneous T-cell lymphoma a meaningful new treatment option and a more hopeful future," added Mazur.

"We remain committed to financial stewardship to sustain this momentum, and focused execution to advance our late-stage pipeline, which includes Mino-Lok and Halo-Lido. Our goal remains to serve our community with first-in-class critical care products, and in so doing maximize long-term shareholder value," concluded Mazur.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o incorporation
