Business Description and Basis of Presentation [Text Block]	Note 1. Clene Inc. (the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or similar such references) is a clinical-stage pharmaceutical company pioneering the discovery, development, and commercialization of novel clean-surfaced nanotechnology therapeutics. We have developed an electro-crystal-chemistry drug development platform which enables production of concentrated, stable, highly active, clean-surfaced nanocrystal suspensions. We have multiple drug assets currently in development for applications primarily in neurology. Our efforts are currently focused on addressing the high unmet medical needs in central nervous system disorders including amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (“ALS”), multiple sclerosis (“MS”), and Parkinson’s disease (“PD”). Our patented electro-crystal-chemistry manufacturing platform further enables us to develop very low concentration dietary supplements to advance the health and well-being of broad populations. These dietary supplements can vary greatly and include nanocrystals of varying composition, shapes and sizes as well as ionic solutions with diverse metallic constituents. Dietary supplements are marketed and distributed through our wholly owned subsidiary, dOrbital, Inc., or through an exclusive license with 4Life “4Life” 15 Clene Nanomedicine, Inc.

We base our estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable. Actual results may Risks and Uncertainties We are subject to certain risks and uncertainties and believe that changes in any of the following areas could have a material adverse effect on future financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows: ability to obtain additional financing; regulatory approval and market acceptance of, and reimbursement for, product candidates; performance of third no Concentrations of Credit Risk Financial instruments which potentially subject us to significant concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash. Our cash is held in financial institutions and amounts on deposit may not not Cash and Cash Equivalents We consider all short-term investments with original maturities of 90 Restricted Cash We classify cash as restricted when it is unavailable for withdrawal or use in our general operating activities. Restricted cash is classified as current and noncurrent on the condensed consolidated balance sheets based on the nature of the restriction. Our restricted cash balance includes contractually restricted deposits related to our corporate credit card. Marketable Securities Marketable securities are investments with original maturities of more than 90 not one Inventory Inventory is stated at historic cost on a first first September 30, 2024 December 31, 2023 Property and Equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Property and equipment consist of laboratory and office equipment, computer software, and leasehold improvements. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated economic useful lives of the assets, which are 3 to 5 years for laboratory equipment, 3 to 7 years for furniture and fixtures, and 2 to 5 years for computer software. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of the estimated lease term or the estimated useful life of the assets. Costs for capital assets not not We capitalize costs to obtain or develop computer software for internal use, including development costs incurred during the software development stage and costs to obtain software for access and conversion of historical data. We also capitalize costs to modify, upgrade, or enhance existing internal-use software that result in additional functionality. We expense costs incurred during the preliminary project stage, training costs, data conversion costs, and maintenance costs. Debt When debt is issued and a derivative is required to be separated (e.g., bifurcated conversion option) or another separate freestanding financial instrument (e.g., warrant) is issued, costs and fees incurred are allocated to the instruments issued (or bifurcated) in proportion to the allocation of proceeds. When some portions of the costs and fees relate to a bifurcated derivative or freestanding financial instrument that is being subsequently measured at fair value, those allocated costs are expensed immediately. Debt discounts, debt premiums, and debt issuance costs related to debt are recorded as deductions that net against the principal value of the debt and are amortized to interest expense over the contractual term of the debt using the effective interest method. In accordance with ASC 470 20, Debt with Conversion and Other Options not 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity 480” Convertible Debt In accordance with ASU 2020 06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470 20 815 40 not not not no 815, Derivatives and Hedging 815” Leases At inception of a contract, we determine if a contract meets the definition of a lease. We determine if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time. We assess throughout the period of use whether we have both of the following: (i) the right to obtain substantially all the economic benefits from use of the identified asset, and (ii) the right to direct the use of the identified asset. This determination is reassessed if the terms of the contract are changed. Leases are classified as operating or finance leases based on the terms of the lease agreement and certain characteristics of the identified asset. Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of the future lease payments less any lease incentives received. At the lease commencement date, the discount rate implicit in the lease is used to discount the lease liability if readily determinable. If not not not twelve Certain lease agreements may not Leases may not Contingent Earn-Out Liabilities In connection with the Reverse Recapitalization, certain Clene Nanomedicine stockholders are entitled to receive additional shares of Common Stock (the “Clene Nanomedicine Contingent Earn-out”) as follows: (i) 166,928 shares if (a) the volume-weighted average price (“VWAP”) of our Common Stock equals or exceeds $300.00 (the “Milestone 1 twenty thirty three 1 three 1” 2 twenty thirty five 2 five 2” 1 not 2 1. 1; 2. 1 not 2 1.

Clene Australia and Clene Netherlands determined their functional currencies to be the Australian dollar and Euro, respectively. The results of our foreign currency operations are translated into USD at the average exchange rates during the period, assets and liabilities are translated using the exchange rate as of the balance sheet date, and stockholders’ equity (deficit) is translated using historical rates. Adjustments from the translation of the results of our foreign currency operations are excluded from net loss and are accumulated in a separate component of stockholders’ equity (deficit). We also incur foreign exchange transaction gains and losses for purchases denominated in foreign currencies. Foreign exchange transaction gains and losses are included in other income (expense), net, as incurred. Comprehensive Loss Comprehensive loss includes net loss as well as other changes in stockholders’ equity (deficit) that result from transactions and economic events other than those with stockholders. The only elements of other comprehensive loss in any periods presented were the translation of foreign currency denominated balances of Clene Australia and Clene Netherlands to USD for consolidation and our unrealized gain (loss) on available-for-sale securities.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial statement basis and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded in the provision for income taxes.

Stock-based compensation expense is recorded in research and development and general and administrative expenses based on the classification of the work performed by the grantees. The fair value is recognized over the period during which a grantee is required to provide services in exchange for the option award and service-based stock awards, known as the requisite service period (usually the vesting period), on a straight-line basis. For stock awards with market conditions, the fair value is recognized over the period based on the expected milestone achievement dates as the derived service period (usually the vesting period), on a straight-line basis. For stock awards with performance conditions, the grant-date fair value of these awards is the market price on the applicable grant date, and compensation expense will be recognized when the conditions become probable of being satisfied. We recognize a cumulative true-up adjustment once the conditions become probable of being satisfied as the related service period had been completed in a prior period.

(“Clene Netherlands”), a subsidiary incorporated in the Netherlands, and dOrbital, Inc., a subsidiary incorporated in Delaware, after elimination of all intercompany accounts and transactions.

Use of Estimates, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Use of Estimates The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported amounts of expenses. We base our estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable. Actual results may
Risk and Uncertainties [Policy Text Block]	Risks and Uncertainties We are subject to certain risks and uncertainties and believe that changes in any of the following areas could have a material adverse effect on future financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows: ability to obtain additional financing; regulatory approval and market acceptance of, and reimbursement for, product candidates; performance of third no
Concentration Risk, Credit Risk, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Concentrations of Credit Risk Financial instruments which potentially subject us to significant concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash. Our cash is held in financial institutions and amounts on deposit may not not
Cash and Cash Equivalents, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Cash and Cash Equivalents We consider all short-term investments with original maturities of 90
Cash and Cash Equivalents, Restricted Cash and Cash Equivalents, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Restricted Cash We classify cash as restricted when it is unavailable for withdrawal or use in our general operating activities. Restricted cash is classified as current and noncurrent on the condensed consolidated balance sheets based on the nature of the restriction. Our restricted cash balance includes contractually restricted deposits related to our corporate credit card.
Marketable Securities, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Marketable Securities Marketable securities are investments with original maturities of more than 90 not one
Inventory, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Inventory Inventory is stated at historic cost on a first first September 30, 2024 December 31, 2023
Property, Plant and Equipment, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Property and Equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Property and equipment consist of laboratory and office equipment, computer software, and leasehold improvements. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated economic useful lives of the assets, which are 3 to 5 years for laboratory equipment, 3 to 7 years for furniture and fixtures, and 2 to 5 years for computer software. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of the estimated lease term or the estimated useful life of the assets. Costs for capital assets not not We capitalize costs to obtain or develop computer software for internal use, including development costs incurred during the software development stage and costs to obtain software for access and conversion of historical data. We also capitalize costs to modify, upgrade, or enhance existing internal-use software that result in additional functionality. We expense costs incurred during the preliminary project stage, training costs, data conversion costs, and maintenance costs.
Debt, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Debt When debt is issued and a derivative is required to be separated (e.g., bifurcated conversion option) or another separate freestanding financial instrument (e.g., warrant) is issued, costs and fees incurred are allocated to the instruments issued (or bifurcated) in proportion to the allocation of proceeds. When some portions of the costs and fees relate to a bifurcated derivative or freestanding financial instrument that is being subsequently measured at fair value, those allocated costs are expensed immediately. Debt discounts, debt premiums, and debt issuance costs related to debt are recorded as deductions that net against the principal value of the debt and are amortized to interest expense over the contractual term of the debt using the effective interest method. In accordance with ASC 470 20, Debt with Conversion and Other Options not 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity 480”

Lessee, Leases [Policy Text Block]	Leases At inception of a contract, we determine if a contract meets the definition of a lease. We determine if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time. We assess throughout the period of use whether we have both of the following: (i) the right to obtain substantially all the economic benefits from use of the identified asset, and (ii) the right to direct the use of the identified asset. This determination is reassessed if the terms of the contract are changed. Leases are classified as operating or finance leases based on the terms of the lease agreement and certain characteristics of the identified asset. Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of the future lease payments less any lease incentives received. At the lease commencement date, the discount rate implicit in the lease is used to discount the lease liability if readily determinable. If not not not twelve Certain lease agreements may not Leases may not

Government Assistance [Policy Text Block]	Grant Funding We may 20, Accounting for Government Grants and Disclosure of Government Assistance 20” 4 We recognize grant funding with conditions or continuing performance obligations as a reduction in research and development expenses in the period during which the related qualifying expenses are incurred and as the conditions or performance obligations are fulfilled.

Foreign Currency Transactions and Translations Policy [Policy Text Block]	Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions Our functional and reporting currency is the U.S. dollar (“USD”). Clene Australia and Clene Netherlands determined their functional currencies to be the Australian dollar and Euro, respectively. The results of our foreign currency operations are translated into USD at the average exchange rates during the period, assets and liabilities are translated using the exchange rate as of the balance sheet date, and stockholders’ equity (deficit) is translated using historical rates. Adjustments from the translation of the results of our foreign currency operations are excluded from net loss and are accumulated in a separate component of stockholders’ equity (deficit). We also incur foreign exchange transaction gains and losses for purchases denominated in foreign currencies. Foreign exchange transaction gains and losses are included in other income (expense), net, as incurred.
Comprehensive Income, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Comprehensive Loss Comprehensive loss includes net loss as well as other changes in stockholders’ equity (deficit) that result from transactions and economic events other than those with stockholders. The only elements of other comprehensive loss in any periods presented were the translation of foreign currency denominated balances of Clene Australia and Clene Netherlands to USD for consolidation and our unrealized gain (loss) on available-for-sale securities.

Income Tax, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Income Taxes We account for income taxes using the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the condensed consolidated financial statements or in our tax returns. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial statement basis and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded in the provision for income taxes. We assess the likelihood that our deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income and, to the extent we believe, based upon the weight of available evidence, that it is more likely than not not We account for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in the condensed consolidated financial statements by applying a two not may 50%
Share-Based Payment Arrangement [Policy Text Block]	Stock-Based Compensation We account for stock-based compensation arrangements using a fair value-based method for costs related to all share-based payments including stock options and stock awards. Stock-based compensation expense is recorded in research and development and general and administrative expenses based on the classification of the work performed by the grantees. The fair value is recognized over the period during which a grantee is required to provide services in exchange for the option award and service-based stock awards, known as the requisite service period (usually the vesting period), on a straight-line basis. For stock awards with market conditions, the fair value is recognized over the period based on the expected milestone achievement dates as the derived service period (usually the vesting period), on a straight-line basis. For stock awards with performance conditions, the grant-date fair value of these awards is the market price on the applicable grant date, and compensation expense will be recognized when the conditions become probable of being satisfied. We recognize a cumulative true-up adjustment once the conditions become probable of being satisfied as the related service period had been completed in a prior period. We generally grant stock options with a four may not not
