Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure On September 23, 2025, ATAI Life Sciences N.V. (atai or the "Company") and Beckley Psytech Limited ("Beckley Psytech") issued a press titled "atai Life Sciences and Beckley Psytech Report Positive Phase 2a Data Demonstrating Improved Outcomes with a Two-Dose Induction Regimen of BPL-003 in Patients with Treatment-Resistant Depression". A copy of the press release is being furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K ("Form 8-K"). The information in this Item 7.01 of this Form 8-K (including Exhibit 99.1 attached hereto) shall not be deemed "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.

Item 8.01. Other Events On September 23, 2025, the Company and Beckley Psytech publicly announced positive data from a proof-of-concept study investigating a two-dose induction regimen of BPL-003 (intranasal mebufotenin benzoate), in patients with treatment resistant depression (TRD). The open-label Phase 2a study ( NCT05660642 ) enrolled 13 patients with TRD who were not on concurrent antidepressants, and 12 met the criteria for per-protocol analysis. Patients were given an 8 mg dose of BPL-003 followed by a 12 mg dose two weeks later. Safety, tolerability and efficacy assessments were conducted at various timepoints for 12 weeks following the initial dose using multiple validated depression rating scales including the MADRS (Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale). Key findings include: (1) following the first (8 mg) dose, patients experienced a mean MADRS reduction of 13.3 points from baseline at Day 2 and a mean MADRS reduction of 12.9 at Day 8; one week after the second dose (12 mg), there was a further decrease in MADRS score to a total of a 19.0 point reduction from baseline, with sustained antidepressant effects observed through Week 12 (13.7 points from baseline); (2) the second dose of BPL-003 increased the proportion of patients meeting response and remission criteria for depression; remitter rates one week after the initial 8mg dose were 25%, with rates doubling to 50% at Week 8, 6 weeks after the second dose administration, and 42% at Week 12; (3) BPL-003 was shown to be generally well-tolerated, with all adverse events classified as mild to moderate, and there were no severe or serious drug-related adverse events reported; and (4) patients met discharge readiness criteria within two hours after dosing for both doses, reinforcing the potential for BPL-003 to be integrated into the established interventional psychiatric treatment paradigm. Doses for the study are the same as the active doses used in the core, blinded stage of Beckley Psytech's Phas
