CULVER CITY, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 7, 2026-- ImmunityBio, Inc. (NASDAQ: IBRX), a biotechnology company, announced financial and operational highlights for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2026. The Company reported net product revenue of approximately $44.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026, with net product revenue growth in every quarter since ANKTIVA’s commercial launch, including a 168% increase over Q1 2025. This builds on full-year 2025 net product revenue of $113.0 million, a 700% increase over full-year 2024. Q1 2026 net product revenue also represents a 15% sequential increase over the $38.3 million earned during Q4 2025, and the revenue growth expansion of 700% full year growth year-over-year in 2025 continues.

The Company ended the quarter with $380.9 million in cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities as of March 31, 2026.

“We continue to see strong demand for ANKTIVA from both new prescribers and physicians expanding use across multiple eligible patients, including in the maintenance setting,” said Richard Adcock, President and CEO of ImmunityBio. “We have also made meaningful progress expanding market access beyond the U.S., with ANKTIVA now commercially available in Saudi Arabia and additional markets anticipated this year. We are entering Q2 with a strong cash position, growing revenues, and a more experienced commercial organization positioned to support continued growth.”

“We’re encouraged by the steady progress of our clinical programs and regulatory submissions across NMIBC and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC),” said Patrick Soon-Shiong, M.D., Founder, Executive Chairman and Global Chief Scientific and Medical Officer of ImmunityBio. “The full enrollment of our pivotal BCG-naïve NMIBC trial, with independent confirmation that no additional patients are required, supports our planned sBLA submission in 2026. In parallel, recent NCCN guideline updates now include ANKTIVA plus BCG for patients with BCG-unresponsive papillary-only disease, reinforcing the growing clinical evidence supporting our approach across a broader spectrum of bladder cancer patients. We are also advancing our NSCLC program in a randomized trial in patients who have progressed following prior checkpoint inhibitor therapy, an area of significant unmet need, alongside continued development of our cell therapy platforms, including CD19-targeted therapies in non-Hodgkin lymphoma and Waldenström’s macroglobulinemia, and PD-L1 t-haNK in glioblastoma.”

Quarterly Financial Highlights

Cash and Marketable Securities Position

As of March 31, 2026, the Company had consolidated cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities of $380.9 million.

First-Quarter 2026 Financial Summary

Product Revenue, Net

Product revenue, net increased $27.7 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025, due to increased net trade sales of ANKTIVA as a result of ongoing commercial activities.

Research and Development Expense

Research and development (R&D) expense increased $19.8 million to $68.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to $48.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2025, mainly due to increased clinical trials costs, headcount-related costs, consulting fees, and external manufacturing costs.

Selling, General and Administrative Expense

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expense increased $13.1 million to $45.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to $32.7 million during the three months ended March 31, 2025, mainly due to increased professional services expenses, headcount-related costs, commercial-related expenses, other expense, and equipment expense.

Other Expense, Net

Other expense, net increased $497.5 million to $563.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to $65.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily due to non-cash changes in the fair value of liabilities mainly driven by the significant increase in our common stock price. These fair value changes impacted our warrant and derivative liabilities, and a related-party convertible note. We also recorded a one-time write off of a convertible note receivable. These changes were partially offset by an increase in interest and investment income and a decrease in interest expense due to lower interest rates.

Net Loss Attributable to ImmunityBio Common Stockholders (Net Loss)

Net loss attributable to ImmunityBio common stockholders was $632.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to $129.6 million during the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase in net loss was mainly driven by changes in fair value of warrant and derivative liabilities, and a related-party convertible note due to an increase in our common stock price during the quarter, and the write off of a convertible note receivable, and higher R&D and SG&A expenses described above, which were partially offset by higher product revenue.

Adjusted Net Loss Attributable to ImmunityBio Common Stockholders (Adjusted Net Loss)

Adjusted net loss attributable to ImmunityBio common stockholders increased $3.6 million to $86.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to $82.7 million during the three months ended March 31, 2025. Adjusted net loss is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes the impact of certain items, as shown in the non-GAAP reconciliation table below.

ImmunityBio, Inc.

Reconciliation of Net Loss Attributable to Common Stockholders (GAAP) to Adjusted Net Loss Attributable to Common Stockholders (Non-GAAP)

Adjusted net loss attributable to common stockholders is a non-GAAP financial measure which excludes certain items that are included in net loss attributable to common stockholders, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. Items excluded are those which the Company believes affect the comparability of operating results and are typically excluded from published estimates by the investment community, including items whose timing and/or amount cannot be reasonably estimated or are non-recurring.

Adjusted net loss attributable to common stockholders is presented because management believes it provides useful additional information to investors for analysis of the Company’s fundamental business on a recurring basis. In addition, management believes that adjusted net loss attributable to common stockholders is widely used by professional research analysts and others in the valuation, comparison, and investment recommendations of companies such as ImmunityBio.

Adjusted net loss attributable to common stockholders should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net loss attributable to common stockholders or any other measure of a company’s financial performance or profitability presented in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of the differences between net loss attributable to common stockholders and adjusted net loss attributable to common stockholders is presented below. Because adjusted net loss attributable to common stockholders excludes some, but not all, items that affect net loss attributable to common stockholders and may vary among companies, our calculation of adjusted net loss attributable to common stockholders may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

About ImmunityBio
