On December 23, 2025, Dermata Therapeutics entered into securities purchase and related agreements for a private placement of common stock, pre-funded warrants and Series C and D warrants, raising approximately $3.7 million in net proceeds (about $4.1 million gross) and creating the potential for roughly $8.3 million in additional gross proceeds if all warrants are exercised. Company insiders, including the CEO, CFO and members of management, participated on the same terms as outside investors, H.C. Wainwright & Co. acted as exclusive placement agent, and Dermata also agreed to reprice certain existing warrants, impose short-term limits on new equity issuance and variable-rate transactions, and register the resale of the new securities, with the fresh capital earmarked for general corporate purposes including research, pre-launch and launch activities for its new OTC acne kit, business development, licensing and working capital, reinforcing the company’s funding base as it advances its consumer-focused dermatology strategy.

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, DRMA is a Underperform.

Dermata Therapeutics’ stock is primarily impacted by its financial health, characterized by significant operating losses and reliance on external financing. Technical analysis indicates a bearish trend with potential overselling, while valuation remains difficult to assess due to negative earnings. These factors contribute to a low overall score.
