Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Nature of Business	Nature of Business Compass Pathways plc, or the Company, is a biotechnology company dedicated to accelerating patient access to evidence-based innovation in mental health. The Company is developing its investigational COMP360 psilocybin treatment through Phase 3 clinical trials in Europe and North America for patients with treatment-resistant depression. The Company is subject to risks and uncertainties common to clinical stage companies in the biotechnology industry, including, but not limited to, development by competitors of new technological innovations, dependence on key personnel, protection of proprietary intellectual property and technology, compliance with government regulations and the ability to secure additional capital to fund operations. The therapeutic candidate currently under development will require significant additional research and development efforts, including preclinical and clinical testing and regulatory approval, prior to commercialization. These efforts require significant amounts of capital, adequate personnel and infrastructure and extensive compliance-reporting capabilities. Even if the Company’s therapeutic development efforts are successful, it is uncertain when, if ever, the Company will realize revenue from sales. The Company has funded its operations with proceeds from the sale of its ordinary shares, American Depository Shares, or ADSs, including in its offerings pursuant to its at-the-market, or ATM, offering program, proceeds from a loan agreement with Hercules Capital, Inc., and proceeds from a private placement transaction, or the PIPE. The Company was party to a Sales Agreement for its ATM offering program, dated October 8, 2021, with TD Securities (USA) LLC, or TD Cowen, under which the Company was able to issue and sell from time to time up to $150.0 million of its ADSs, each representing one ordinary share, through TD Cowen as the sales agent. Pursuant to the Sales Agreement dated October 8, 2021, through February 27, 2025, the Company sold 5,491,836 ADSs under the Company’s ATM offering program, resulting in $54.8 million in net proceeds. On February 27, 2025, the Company entered into a new Sales Agreement to govern the Company’s ATM offering program with TD Cowen, or the Sales Agreement, under which the Company may issue and sell from time to time up to $150.0 million of our ADSs, subject to the terms of the Sales Agreement. Sales of its ADSs, if any, will generally be made at market prices. To date, the Company has not sold any ADSs under this Sales Agreement. On June 30, 2023, the Company entered into a loan agreement with Hercules, which provided for aggregate maximum borrowings of up to $50.0 million, including a term loan of $30.0 million, which was funded on June 30, 2023. On January 5, 2026, the Company entered into a third amendment to the loan agreement with Hercules, or the Amended Loan Agreement. The Amended Loan Agreement provides for five tranches of term loans in an aggregate principal amount of up to $150.0 million, including a term loan of $50.0 million, which was funded on January 5, 2026. As required by the Amended Loan Agreement, a portion of the proceeds from the first $50.0 million term loan was used to repay the outstanding principal amounts and PIK due under the original loan agreement, which was approximately $31.1 million. On August 16, 2023, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement, pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell and issue in a private placement transaction (i) 16,076,750 ADSs and (ii) PIPE Warrants to purchase up to 16,076,750 ADSs, at a purchase price of approximately $7.78 per ADS and accompanying PIPE Warrant to purchase one ADS. Each PIPE Warrant has an exercise price of $9.93 per ADS and is exercisable for a three-year period beginning in February 2024. The PIPE Warrants may be exercised on a cashless basis if there is no effective registration statement registering the shares underlying the PIPE Warrants. During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, no PIPE warrants were exercised. As of March 31, 2026, PIPE Warrants had been exercised for an aggregate of 3,752,050 ADSs, resulting in proceeds of $37.3 million. The Company may receive up to an additional approximately $122.4 million in gross proceeds if the PIPE Warrants are fully exercised for cash. In January 2025, the Company issued and sold (i) 24,014,728 American Depositary Shares, each representing one ordinary share, nominal value £0.008 each, of the Company and accompanying warrants to purchase up to 24,014,728 ADSs, and (ii) in lieu of ADSs, to certain investors, Pre-funded Warrants to purchase up to 11,044,720 ADSs and accompanying 2025 ADS Warrants to purchase up to 11,044,720 ADSs. The offering price was $4.2750 per ADS and accompanying 2025 ADS Warrant, and $4.2649 per Pre-funded Warrant and accompanying 2025 ADS Warrant. The Pre-funded Warrants have an exercise price of $0.0001 per ADS and are exercisable immediately. The Pre-funded Warrants expire when exercised in full. The 2025 ADS Warrants had an exercise price of $5.7960 per ADS. In February 2026, all 35,059,448 2025 ADS warrants were exercised and the Company received net proceeds of $203.2 million. Upon exercise of these outstanding warrants, the Company issued 15,160,619 ADSs and in lieu of ADSs, to certain institutional investors, Pre-funded Warrants to purchase up to 19,898,829 ADSs. On February 19, 2026, the Company issued and sold in an underwritten offering, or the February 2026 Offering, 17,500,000 ADSs at a public offering price of $8.00 per ADS, each representing one ordinary share, and in lieu of ADSs, to certain institutional investors, Pre-funded Warrants to purchase up to 1,250,000 ADSs at a public offering price of $7.9999 per Pre-funded Warrant. The Company received net proceeds of approximately $140.5 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering costs. The Company has incurred recurring losses since its inception. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company recognized net income of $91.2 million, compared to a net loss of $17.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The net income for the current period was primarily driven by a the fair value change of warrant liabilities, and may not be indicative of future results. As of March 31, 2026, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $731.4 million. The Company expects to continue to generate operating losses for the foreseeable future. The Company believes the cash and cash equivalents on hand as of March 31, 2026 of $466.0 million will be sufficient to fund its operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next twelve months from the date of issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements. The future viability of the Company is dependent on its ability to raise additional capital to finance its operations. The Company’s inability to raise capital as and when needed could have a negative impact on its financial condition and ability to pursue its business strategies. There can be no assurance that the current operating plan will be achieved or that additional funding will be available on terms acceptable to the Company, or at all. The Company may raise additional capital through a combination of equity offerings, debt financings, collaborations, and other strategic transactions, including marketing, distribution or licensing arrangements. The failure of the Company to obtain sufficient funds on acceptable terms when needed could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations, and financial conditions. Market volatility, geopolitical tensions or instability (including from the effects of announced or future tariff increases), geopolitical conflict (such as the war between Ukraine and Russia and conflict in the Middle East), fluctuating inflation and interest rates and the related impact on U.S., UK and global economies, instability in the banking system, the risk of an economic slowdown or recession in the U.S., significant changes in U.S. policies or regulatory environment or the disruption to U.S. government agencies or other factors could adversely impact the Company’s operations, financial results and ability to raise additional funding.
