PART I — REGISTRANT INFORMATION

Full Name of Registrant

Seelos Therapeutics, Inc.

Former Name if Applicable:

Address of Principal Executive Office (Street and Number)

300 Park Ave., 2nd Floor

City, State and Zip Code

SEC 1344 (01-19) Potential persons who are to respond to the collection of information contained in this Form are not required to respond unless the Form displays a currently valid OMB control number.

PART II — RULES 12b-25(b) AND (c)

If the subject report could not be filed without unreasonable effort or expense and the registrant seeks relief pursuant to Rule 12b-25(b), the following should be completed. (Check box if appropriate)

 

(a)

The reason described in reasonable detail in Part III of this Form could not be eliminated without unreasonable effort or expense;

(b)

The subject annual report, semi-annual report, transition report on Form 10-K, Form 20-F, Form 11-K, Form N-CEN or Form N-CSR, or portion thereof, will be filed on or before the fifteenth calendar day following the prescribed due date; or the subject quarterly report or transition report on Form 10-Q or subject distribution report on Form 10-D, or portion thereof, will be filed on or before the fifth calendar day following the prescribed due date; and

(c)

The accountant’s statement or other exhibit required by Rule 12b-25(c) has been attached if applicable.

PART III — NARRATIVE

State below in reasonable detail why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, 10-D, N-CEN, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.
 

The Registrant could not complete the filing of its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2024 (the “Form 10-Q”) due to staffing issues and a delay in obtaining and compiling information required to be included in the Form 10-Q, which delay could not be eliminated by the Registrant without unreasonable effort and expense. The reason for these delays is due to the fact that on November 15, 2024, the Registrant commenced voluntary proceedings (the “Chapter 11 Case”) under Chapter 11 of the United States Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York. The Chapter 11 Case requires the dedication of the Registrant’s personnel and resources which has precluded the Registrant from completing the preparation and review of its financial statements for the reporting period. The Registrant is considering the possible effect of such matter on its evaluation of the Registrant’s internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures and also expects to continue to report in its Form 10-Q that substantial doubt exists about its ability to continue as a going concern for one year from the date that the unaudited consolidated financial statements are anticipated to be issued. The Registrant cannot at this time estimate when it will be able to file its Form 10-Q.
