This 424B5 filing finalizes the terms and pricing of the public offering, which was previously announced as a proposed $500 million offering. The company successfully upsized the offering to $700.35 million in gross proceeds, securing approximately $658.3 million in net proceeds. This substantial capital infusion significantly strengthens Oruka Therapeutics' financial position, providing crucial funding for general corporate purposes, including research and development. The offering was priced at $72.50 per share, which is a premium to the current market price of $68.00, indicating strong institutional demand and confidence, especially following the highly positive Phase 2a clinical trial results for ORKA-001 announced on April 27, 2026. While the offering is dilutive, increasing outstanding shares by approximately 19.83%, securing this level of funding at a favorable price is a critical de-risking event for a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company to advance its pipeline and extend its operational runway.

At the time of this filing, ORKA was trading at $68.00 on NASDAQ in the Life Sciences sector, with a market capitalization of approximately $3.4B. The 52-week trading range was $8.91 to $91.00. This filing was assessed with positive market sentiment and an importance score of 8 out of 10.
