Why Is PBM Stock Drawing So Much Investor Interest Today?

Psyence Biomedical was in the spotlight after its shares began trading on a post-reverse-split basis, following a 1-for-6.25 consolidation.

NEW YORK – December 9, 2025 – Psyence Biomedical Ltd. (Nasdaq: PBM) (“Psyence BioMed” or the “Company”), a biopharmaceutical company advancing nature-derived psilocybin and ibogaine therapies for unmet mental health needs, <a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://psyencebiomed.com/ceo-year-end-letter-to-shareholders">today released a year-end Letter</a> from Chief Executive Officer Jody Aufrichtig, summarizing the Company’s 2025 achievements and outlining its strategic vision for 2026.In his year-end letter to shareholders, Aufrichtig described 2025 as a “turning point” in which Psyence BioMed delivered clinical execution, strengthened global manufacturing ties, and positioned itself at the forefront of the convergence between nature-derived psychedelic therapeutics and longevity science.“We recruited and dosed our first patients in a Phase IIb study. Through a further investment in <a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://psylabs.life/">PsyLabs</a> we secured our psychedelic compound supply chain and became the only listed company with an investment in sustainable Ibogaine at source in Africa. We commenced studies in the exciting field of Longevity and ended the year debt free with over USD $9 million in cash reserves.”<h3>Clinical Progress and Phase IIb Trial Momentum</h3>Psyence BioMed advanced its Phase IIb clinical trial evaluating psilocybin-assisted psychotherapy for the treatment of Adjustment Disorder in palliative care. Multiple patients were dosed across several Australian clinical sites, supported by a partnership with Southern Star Research, one of Australia’s leading clinical research organisations.<h3>Advancing Nature-Derived Manufacturing and Supply Chain Leadership</h3>The Company strengthened its vertical integration through a multi-million-dollar follow-on investment in PsyLabs, securing GMP compliant nature-derived psilocybin and ibogaine supply for current and future programs.

NEW YORK, Nov. 25, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Psyence Biomedical Ltd. (Nasdaq: PBM) (“Psyence BioMed” or the “Company”), a biopharmaceutical company advancing nature-derived psilocybin and ibogaine therapies for unmet mental health needs, today announced the launch of a new psilocybin longevity research initiative in collaboration with leading researchers in South Africa. This program positions Psyence BioMed as the first – and currently the only – publicly listed company to investigate psilocybin’s potential impact on biological markers associated with aging and longevity. A successful trial could redefine human longevity and transform the future of aging.Longevity science is gaining unprecedented global attention, driven by rapidly aging populations, escalating healthcare costs, and the visibility of figures like Bryan Johnson, who has openly explored both psychedelic therapies and longevity optimization. Simultaneously, scientific literature continues to build support for the intersection of psychedelics and aging biology. Recent preclinical research has shown that psilocin, psilocybin’s active metabolite, extended survival in aged mouse models and increased the lifespan of human skin and lung cells by more than 50 per cent (<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.globenewswire.com/Tracker?data=fYmoqTfCjBZWcGz8V1JskJhFG_uolRewQpV-bi1RaRsEryoNNMdonMrkWB3SqGWvWg0qhdj3GJWOxsqlXNgRrWQRcRs80DacDb0ArFTFfka8huTHNHeaTVQh9rj0eXMdFTqGcWkE8MdxnKz_E6UtlKazGIOIDwfqrsSKCx7HeD4=">Source</a>). Additional studies suggest psilocybin may modulate cellular aging by reducing oxidative stress, preserving telomere length, enhancing neuroplasticity, and activating key longevity-associated pathways (<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.globenewswire.com/Tracker?data=fYmoqTfCjBZWcGz8V1JskCgz7HXxcl1tb1YSCpMByydkseHXd1kejdDKddRuuLPDK-IWX9sv3MK1GJmyxO84GKjb_CK-05Vpo8Y1eUrWdQHH34IQ1RIem6VnMUkvdHA7XWkMDIaiyS_6wlTKwqI0kviZ_gcQBhSFJPjwmxYN0p6OvPeP6VR4aydoQxv_-JFC">Source</a>).Working closely with an academic neuroscience faculty, Psyence BioMed is developing an accelerated preclinical protocol designed to evaluate whether psilocybin influences biological mechanisms tied to aging. The study will examine biomarkers related to cellular stress, inflammation, mitochondrial function, and behavioural indicators associated with healthspan and lifespan. The Company has commenced the project, with full acceleration anticipated early in the new year following ethics approval.The research will be conducted under the leadership of Dr. Tanya Calvey, PhD, an internationally recognized neuroscientist specializing in translational neuropsychopharmacology. Dr. Calvey’s work bridges human neuroimaging, molecular biology, and neurohistology to explore how psychoactive compounds influence long-term brain health and cellular resilience.“The scientific community is only beginning to uncover the potential links between psychedelics and longevity,” said Dr. Tanya Calvey. “Psilocybin modulates inflammation, neural connectivity, and cellular stress responses – all central to how we understand aging biology. The collaboration with Psyence BioMed enables us to rigorously investigate these mechanisms and generate evidence that could guide future human studies.”Psyence BioMed Chief Executive Officer, Jody Aufrichtig, reinforced the significance of this initiative, particularly within the broader longevity movement.“Longevity is quickly emerging as one of the most important global health frontiers,” said Aufrichtig. “With public influencers like Bryan Johnson elevating longevity science and exploring psychedelic-assisted interventions, there is tremendous interest in understanding how psilocybin may influence biological aging. As the first publicly listed company actively pursuing this research, Psyence BioMed is positioned at the forefront of an entirely new therapeutic arena.This longevity initiative complements Psyence BioMed’s ongoing clinical development programs, including its psilocybin-assisted therapy trial for existential distress in palliative care patients in Australia. Together, these programs advance the Company’s mission to explore the full therapeutic potential of psilocybin and ibogaine across multiple dimensions of human health – from mental wellness to long-term biological wellbeing.About Psyence BioMedPsyence Biomedical Ltd. (Nasdaq: PBM) is one of the few multi-asset, vertically integrated biopharmaceutical companies specializing in psychedelic-based therapeutics.
