ImmunityBio, Inc. (NASDAQ: IBRX), a leading immunotherapy company, today announced the pricing of its previously announced underwritten public offering of an aggregate of 33,333,334 shares of its common stock at a price to the public of $3.00 per share. ImmunityBio has granted the underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 5,000,000 shares of its common stock at the public offering price, less underwriting discounts and commissions.

About ImmunityBio, Inc.

ImmunityBio is a vertically-integrated commercial stage biotechnology company developing next-generation therapies that bolster the natural immune system to defeat cancers and infectious diseases. The Company’s range of immunotherapy platforms, alone and together, act to drive an immune response with the goal of creating durable immune memory generating safe protection against disease. Designated an FDA Breakthrough Therapy, ANKTIVA® is the first FDA-approved immunotherapy for non-muscle invasive bladder cancer CIS that activates natural killer cells, T cells, and memory T cells for a long-duration response. The Company is applying its science and platforms to treating cancers, including the development of potential cancer vaccines, as well as developing immunotherapies and cell therapies that we believe sharply reduce or eliminate the need for standard high-dose chemotherapy. These platforms and their associated product candidates are designed to be more effective, accessible, and easily administered than current standards of care in oncology and infectious diseases.
