• Series G Warrant Expiration Triggered

  The public announcement of the clinical trial triggers the expiration of all outstanding Series G Warrants on May 12, 2026, 30 trading days following the announcement.

• Significant Potential Dilution from Warrants

iBio has received regulatory and ethics approval to commence a Phase 1 clinical trial for its IBIO-600 therapeutic in Australia, marking a significant transition to a clinical-stage company. This positive development, which was previously reported in news, is accompanied by a material financing event: the public announcement triggers the expiration of 27,945,000 Series G Warrants on May 12, 2026. If all these warrants are exercised, it would lead to the issuance of a substantial number of new common shares, representing a significant potential dilution for existing shareholders. This creates a notable overhang on the stock, as the market will likely weigh the positive clinical progress against the impending increase in share count.
