## What Apimeds Pharmaceuticals US does

Apimeds Pharmaceuticals US, Inc. is a Delaware corporation that closed a merger on December 1, 2025, in which MindWave Innovations Inc. became a wholly owned subsidiary. The company conducts its business through two wholly owned operating subsidiaries, Lokahi Therapeutics, Inc. and MindWave Innovations Inc. Lokahi is a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company developing Apitox, an intradermally administered bee venom-based toxin, with its focus on inflammation and pain management symptoms associated with knee OA and, to a lesser extent, MS. Apitox is a purified, pharmaceutical grade venom from the western honeybee, which the FDA classifies as an active pharmaceutical ingredient. Apimeds Inc. markets and sells the product in South Korea as Apitoxin for the treatment of OA, but the company says it is not associated with those sales and that Apitoxin has not yet been approved by the FDA for any indication. The company also describes a 1-for-10 reverse stock split and a change in control tied to a new NYSE American listing application.

| Product or program | What it is | Stage |
|---|---|---|
| Apitox | Intradermal bee venom-based toxin for inflammation and pain in knee OA and MS | Clinical stage |
| Apitoxin | Bee venom product marketed for OA in South Korea by Apimeds Inc. | Marketed in South Korea; not approved by the FDA |
