<td class="text">On August&#160;25, 2025, Catalyst Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the &#8220;Company&#8221;) filed a Current Report on Form 8-K (the &#8220;Original 8-K&#8221;) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission reporting that the Company had entered into a settlement agreement with Lupin Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and Lupin Ltd. (&#8220;Lupin&#8221;) resolving certain patent litigation brought by the Company and SERB S.A. against Lupin. Since the Company disseminated its press release reporting on the settlement with Lupin, the Company has become aware that the Original 8-K and the press release that was an exhibit to the Original 8-K (the &#8220;Original Press Release&#8221;) inadvertently misidentified one of the parties that had previously settled patent litigation with the Company and SERB S.A. relating to the Company&#8217;s FIRDAPSE&#174; patents. The party that previously settled its litigation with the Company and SERB S.A. relating to the Company&#8217;s FIRDAPSE&#174; patents is Inventia Healthcare Limited and not Inventia Life Science Pty Ltd. On August&#160;26, 2025, the Company reissued the Original Press Release to update the identity of the party that previously settled the litigation with the Company and SERB S.A. relating to the Company&#8217;s FIRDAPSE&#174; patents. Other than a change to correct the identity of the previous settling party, no other changes were made to the Original Press Release that was disseminated on August&#160;25, 2025. The updated press release that was disseminated on August&#160;26, 2025 is attached to this Form 8-K/A as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference. <span></span>

(the &#x201c;Company&#x201d;) filed a Current Report on Form 8-K (the &#x201c;Original 8-K&#x201d;) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission reporting that the Company had entered into a settlement agreement with Lupin Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and Lupin Ltd. (&#x201c;Lupin&#x201d;) resolving certain patent litigation brought by the Company and SERB S.A. against Lupin. Since the Company disseminated its press release reporting on the settlement with Lupin, the Company has become aware that the Original 8-K and the press release that was an exhibit to the Original 8-K (the &#x201c;Original Press Release&#x201d;) inadvertently misidentified one of the parties that had previously settled patent litigation with the Company and SERB S.A. relating to the Company&#x2019;s FIRDAPSE&#xae; patents. The party that previously settled its litigation with the Company and SERB S.A. relating to the Company&#x2019;s FIRDAPSE&#xae; patents is Inventia Healthcare Limited and not Inventia Life Science Pty Ltd. On August&#160;26, 2025, the Company reissued the Original Press Release to update the identity of the party that previously settled the litigation with the Company and SERB S.A. relating to the Company&#x2019;s FIRDAPSE&#xae; patents. Other than a change to correct the identity of the previous settling party, no other changes were made to the Original Press Release that was disseminated on August&#160;25, 2025. The updated press release that was disseminated on August&#160;26, 2025 is attached to this Form 8-K/A as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference. </dei:AmendmentDescription>
