Accounting Policies [Abstract] |
Description of business and summary of significant accounting policies | Note 1. Description of business and summary of significant accounting policies: Overview MIRA Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: MIRA) is a clinical-stage pharmaceutical development company focused on developing novel oral small-molecule therapeutics for neurologic, neuropsychiatric, metabolic, and inflammatory disorders. The Company’s pipeline includes three product candidates: Ketamir-2, MIRA-55, and SKNY-1. Ketamir-2 is a next-generation oral NMDA receptor modulator that has completed Phase 1 clinical development and is being advanced toward Phase 2a clinical studies for neuropathic pain. MIRA-55 is a novel oral cannabinoid analog in preclinical development for inflammatory pain and related conditions. SKNY-1 is a preclinical-stage oral therapeutic designed to modulate CB1, CB2, and monoamine oxidase B (MAO-B) pathways and is being developed for obesity and nicotine dependence. On June 13, 2025, the Company formed MIRAPHARM Acquisition, Inc., a wholly owned Delaware subsidiary, to support the acquisition of SKNY Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a private company developing SKNY-1 (See Note 5, Asset Acquisition) and related party due to common shareholders and a shared licensor. On September 29, 2025, the Company completed a stock-for-stock merger, with SKNY surviving as the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary. As used herein, the Company’s Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, is referred to as the “Common Stock” and the Company’s preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share, is referred to as the “Preferred Stock”. Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation The Company’s financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of American (GAAP) as determined by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC). The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of MIRA Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Use of estimates The preparation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements. Actual results may differ from such estimates and such differences could be material. Significant estimates during the reporting periods include the value of equity investments held, value of common shares issued in an acquisition, stock-based compensation and the deferred tax asset valuation allowance. Certain Risks and Uncertainties The Company’s activities are subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including the risk of failure to secure additional funding to properly execute the Company’s business plan. The Company is subject to risks that are common to companies in the pharmaceutical industry, including, but not limited to, development by the Company or its competitors of new technological innovations, dependence on key personnel, reliance on third party manufacturers, protection of proprietary technology, and compliance with regulatory requirements. MIRA PHARMACEUTICALS, INC. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2025 AND 2024 Cash The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments and other short-term investments with maturities of three months or less, when purchased, to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains cash and cash equivalent balances at two financial institutions that are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”). The Company’s account at these institutions are insured by the FDIC up to $250,000. On December 31, 2025, the Company had cash in excess of FDIC limits of approximately $6.1 million. To reduce its risk associated with the failure of such financial institution, the Company evaluates at least annually the rating of the financial institution in which it holds deposits. Investments in Equity Securities, at Fair Value Equity investments are carried at fair value with unrealized gains or losses recorded as net unrealized gain (loss) on equity investments, a component of other income, in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Realized gains and losses are determined on a specific identification basis which is recorded in earnings or loss as a net realized gain (loss) on equity investments in the consolidated statement of operations. The Company reviews investments in equity securities, at fair value, for impairment whenever circumstances and situations change such that there is an indication that the carrying amounts may not be recovered. Fair Value of Financial Instruments The Company measures the fair value of financial instruments in accordance with GAAP, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. GAAP defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. GAAP also establishes a fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The Company considers the carrying amount of deferred offering costs to approximate fair value due to short-term nature of this instrument. GAAP describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value: Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 - quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable. Level 3 - inputs that are unobservable (for example cash flow modeling inputs based on assumptions). Schedule of fair value of financial instruments

Revenue Recognition The Company has not generated revenue from contracts with customers as of December 31, 2025. The Company will recognize revenue in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, when it satisfies its performance obligations by transferring control of promised goods or services to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled. Research and Development Expenses Research and development costs are expensed in the period in which they are incurred and include the expenses paid to third parties, such as contract research organizations and consultants, who conduct research and development activities on behalf of the Company. Patent-related costs, including registration costs, documentation costs and other legal fees associated with the application, are expensed in the period in which they are incurred. General and Administrative Expenses General and administrative expenses are primarily comprised of personnel costs, insurance expenses, professional services fees, travel and office expenses, and stock-based compensation. General and administrative expenses are expensed as incurred. MIRA PHARMACEUTICALS, INC. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2025 AND 2024 Stock-Based Compensation The Company accounts for stock-based compensation under the provisions of FASB ASC 718, “Compensation - Stock Compensation.” Stock-based compensation cost for equity-classified awards is measured at the grant-date fair value of the award and is recognized as expense over the requisite service period, generally on a straight-line basis. The Company estimates the fair value of stock-based awards on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, which requires the use of subjective assumptions including expected volatility, expected term, risk-free interest rate, and expected dividends. The Company has elected to account for forfeiture of stock-based awards as they occur. Income Taxes The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to the provision of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740-10, “Accounting for Income Taxes” (“ASC 740-10”), which requires, among other things, an asset and liability approach to calculating deferred income taxes. The asset and liability approach requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. A valuation allowance is provided to offset any net deferred tax assets for which management believes it is more likely than not that the net deferred asset will not be realized. The Company follows the provision of ASC 740-10 related to Accounting for Uncertain Income Tax Positions. When tax returns are filed, there may be uncertainty about the merits of positions taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. In accordance with the guidance of ASC 740-10, the benefit of a tax position is recognized in the consolidated financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more likely than not recognition threshold are measured at the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefit associated with tax positions taken that exceed the amount measured as described above should be reflected as a liability for uncertain tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheet along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. The Company believes its tax positions are all more likely than not to be upheld upon examination. As such, the Company has not recorded a liability for uncertain tax benefits. Operating Segments The Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) is its Chief Executive Officer, who reviews financial information presented for purposes of making operating decisions, assessing financial performance, and allocating resources. The Company operates as a single operating and reportable segment, consistent with the manner in which the CODM evaluates performance and allocates resources, see Note 10 for further information. Leases The Company has accounted for leases under the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 842, “Leases”, which requires the Company to recognize right-to-use (ROU) assets and lease liabilities for operating leases on the balance sheet. Contingencies In the normal course of business, the Company may be subject to loss contingencies, such as legal proceedings, amounts arising from contractual arrangements and claims arising out of the Company’s business that cover a wide range of matters, including, among others, government investigations, shareholder lawsuits, and tax matters. In accordance with ASC Topic 450, Accounting for Contingencies, (ASC 450), the Company records accruals for such loss contingencies when it is probable that a liability will be incurred, and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company, in accordance with this guidance, does not recognize gain contingencies until realized or realizable. Warrants The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in FASB ASC Topic 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (ASC 480) and FASB ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging (ASC 815). The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company’s own Common Stock and whether the warrant holders could potentially require “net cash settlement” in a circumstance outside of the Company’s control, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the warrants are outstanding. MIRA PHARMACEUTICALS, INC. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2025 AND 2024 For issued or modified warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital at the time of issuance. For issued or modified warrants that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be liability classified and recorded at their initial fair value on the date of issuance and remeasured at fair value and each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair value of the warrants are recognized as a non-cash gain or loss on the statements of operations. The Company generally determines fair value of the Common Stock Warrants using a Black-Scholes valuation methodology. A change in any of the terms or conditions of warrants is accounted for as a modification. The accounting for incremental fair value of warrants is based on the specific facts and circumstances related to the modification which may result in a reduction of additional paid-in capital, recognition of costs for services rendered, or recognized as a deemed dividend. Loss per Share Basic loss per share of common stock is computed by dividing net loss attributable to Common Stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted loss per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if stock options, restricted stock awards and warrants were to vest and be exercised. Diluted earnings per share excludes, when applicable, the potential impact of stock options, common stock warrant shares, convertible notes, and other dilutive instruments because their effect would be anti-dilutive in the periods in which the Company incurs a net loss. The following outstanding shares of common stock equivalents were excluded from the computation of the diluted net loss per share attributable to common stock for the periods in which a net loss is presented because their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

MIRA PHARMACEUTICALS, INC. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2025 AND 2024 Recent Accounting Pronouncements From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB or other standard setting bodies and are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2023-09 Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (ASU 2023-09), which is intended to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures, primarily by amending disclosure requirements for the effective tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. ASU 2023-09 should be applied on a prospective basis, and retrospective application is permitted. ASU 2023-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted this ASU or the year ended December 31, 2025 (see Note 15 “Income Taxes” for more information). Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“ASU 2024-03”) and in January 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-01, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Clarifying the Effective Date, which clarified the effective date of ASU 2024-03. ASU 2024-03 will require the Company to disclose the amounts of purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, and intangible asset amortization, as applicable, included in certain expense captions in the Consolidated Statements of Operations, as well as qualitatively describe remaining amounts included in those captions. ASU 2024-03 will also require the Company to disclose both the amount and the Company’s definition of selling expenses. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting of ASU 2024-03. Management has considered all other recent accounting pronouncements that are issued, but not effective, and it does not believe that they will have a significant impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.
