Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Organization, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies	Organization, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies Nature of Operations Skye Bioscience, Inc. (the “Company” or “Skye”) was incorporated in Nevada on March 16, 2011. The Company is a clinical stage biotechnology company developing next-generation molecules that modulate G-protein-coupled receptors ("GPCRs") to treat obesity, overweight, and related conditions. As of March 31, 2026, the Company has devoted substantially all its efforts to securing its product pipeline, carrying out research and development, preparing for and conducting clinical trials, building infrastructure and raising capital. The Company has not yet realized revenue from its planned principal operations and is a number of years away from potentially being able to do so. Impact of Geopolitical and Macroeconomic Factors It is possible that the Company may encounter supply chain issues related to global economic and political conditions such as a lack of production or laboratory resources, pandemics or cyberattacks that could cause business disruptions and clinical trial delays which will need to be managed in the future. There may also be significant uncertainty resulting from the impact of other geopolitical and macroeconomic factors, including global pandemics, tariffs, inflation, supply chain issues, fluctuating interest rates, future bank failures and disruptions to the supply chain as a result of increased geopolitical tensions between the U.S. and its international trade partners, including China and Iran. Liquidity The Company has incurred operating losses and negative cash flows from operations since inception and as of March 31, 2026, had working capital of $8,162,037 and an accumulated deficit of $199,383,847. As of March 31, 2026, the Company had unrestricted cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments in the amount of $17,108,629. For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company incurred losses from operations of $12,674,366 and $11,759,562, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company incurred net losses of $12,509,361 and $11,103,319, respectively. The Company expects to continue to incur significant losses through the end of 2026 and expects to incur significant losses and negative cash flows from operations in the future. The Company’s continued existence is dependent on its ability to raise sufficient additional funding to cover operating expenses and to carry out its research and development activities. As the Company is continuing its clinical trials, it has increased research and development spending and increased cash used in operating activities. This factor, among others, has resulted in an overall increase in cash used in operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2025 and the three months ended March 31, 2026. As of the date that these financials are filed, management estimates that the Company has sufficient capital to continue its operations through the fourth quarter of 2026, excluding the anticipated clinical cost of a proposed Phase 2b study and additional anticipated drug manufacturing costs to supply any such Phase 2b study. However, the Company's continued operations beyond the fourth quarter of 2026 will depend on its ability to successfully raise additional capital through various potential sources, such as equity and/or debt financings, or strategic relationships. If adequate funds are not available to the Company when needed it will be required to curtail or perhaps cease operations which would, in turn, further raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. These conditions give rise to substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that these financial statements are issued. After considering the plans to alleviate substantial doubt, management has concluded that there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that these financial statements are issued. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. The Company is a party to a legal proceeding with a former employee (see note 8). As of March 31, 2026, the estimated legal contingency, including accrued legal expenses, is $2,574,759. The Company does not believe that inflation has had a material impact on its operating results during the periods presented. However, inflation has had, and may continue to have, an impact on general and administrative costs such as professional fees, employee costs and travel costs, and may in the future adversely affect the Company's operating results. In addition, increased inflation has had and may continue to have an effect on interest rates. Increased interest rates may adversely affect the terms under which the Company can obtain any potential additional funding. Notably, the Company relies on third party manufacturers to produce its product candidates. The manufacturing of nimacimab is conducted in Europe. Formulation for clinical trial use relies on regulatory-accepted excipients that can be sourced from countries outside the United States. Nasdaq Communications As previously disclosed by the Company in its Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on March 19, 2026, on March 17, 2026, the Company received a notification letter (the “Deficiency Notice”) from the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that, for the last 30 consecutive business days, the closing bid price for the Company’s common stock has been below the minimum $1.00 per share required for continued listing on The Nasdaq Global Market pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(a)(1) (Rule “5450(a)(1)”). The Deficiency Notice is a notice of deficiency, not delisting, and does not currently affect the listing or trading of the Company’s common stock on the Nasdaq Global Market. The Company's common stock continues to trade on the Nasdaq Global Market under the symbol “SKYE” at this time. The Company intends to actively monitor the closing bid price of its common stock and to consider plans for regaining compliance with Rule 5450(a)(1). While the Company plans to review all available options, there can be no assurance that it will be able to regain compliance with the applicable rules during the 180-day compliance period ending on September 14, 2026, any additional compliance period, or at all. Additional information regarding the Deficiency Notice can be found in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on March 19, 2026. Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Interim financial results are not necessarily indicative of results anticipated for the full year, or any future periods. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, from which the prior year balance sheet information herein was derived. Certain reclassifications have been made to the amounts in prior periods to conform to the current period’s presentation, including reclassifying discovery research and development expense amounts from external clinical development expenses into other research and development expenses, as described in Note 9, Segment Reporting. Such reclassifications did not have a material impact on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, there were no changes to the Company's significant accounting policies as described in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025. Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which requires additional disclosure of the nature of expenses included in the income statement. The standard requires disclosures about specific types of expenses included in the expense captions presented in the income statement as well as disclosures about selling expenses. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The requirements should be applied on a prospective basis while retrospective application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11 – Interim Reporting (“ASU 2025-11”) which is intended to improve the navigability of the guidance in ASC 270, Interim Reporting, and clarify when it applies. Under the amendments, an entity is subject to ASC 270 if it provides interim financial statements and notes in accordance with GAAP. ASU 2025-11 also addresses the form and content of such financial statements, interim disclosures requirements, and establishes a principle under which an entity must disclose events since the end of the last annual reporting period that have a material impact on the entity. ASU 2025-11 is effective for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2025-11 may have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and disclosures. In December 2025, the FASB issued its final ASU which makes improvements to the Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") in response to feedback from stakeholders. This standard, issued as ASU 2025-12, specifically updates the ASC for a broad range of topics arising from technical corrections, unintended application of the ASC, clarifications, and other minor improvements. This update is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, including interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. The Company is currently evaluating the effect of this guidance on its financial statements and related disclosures.

As of March 31, 2026, the Company has devoted substantially all its efforts to securing its product pipeline, carrying out research and development, preparing for and conducting clinical trials, building infrastructure and raising capital. The Company has not yet realized revenue from its planned principal operations and is a number of years away from potentially being able to do so.
