Letter to Our Stockholders

Dear Fellow Stockholders,

This past year and the early part of 2026 have been transformational for ImmunityBio. We achieved commercial scale, secured multiple international approvals, and validated our vision of Immunotherapy 2.0 with clinical results that continue to exceed expectations. We are proud to share these achievements with you.

From Approval to Commercial Success

When ANKTIVA® received FDA approval in April 2024, we set an ambitious goal to demonstrate that our first-in-class IL-15 immunotherapy could become a new standard-of-care for non-muscle invasive bladder cancer patients with CIS with or without papillary disease (NMIBC). The results speak for themselves. Full-year 2025 net product revenue reached approximately $113 million, a 700% increase over the prior year. Unit sales grew 750%. Today, commercial and governmental insurance programs covering more than 240 million lives provide access to ANKTIVA.

The implementation of our permanent J-code (J9028) in January 2025 simplified reimbursement and accelerated adoption. But the true driver of our commercial success has been clinical outcomes. NMIBC CIS patients are achieving durable complete responses measured in years, not months. ANKTIVA is changing the treatment paradigm.

Global Expansion

Our regulatory momentum continued this period. In NMIBC, the UK’s MHRA approved ANKTIVA in July 2025, and in February 2026 the EC issued a conditional marketing authorization covering the EU as well as Iceland, Liechtenstein, and Norway. A significant milestone, however, came from the SFDA, which granted accelerated approval for ANKTIVA in metastatic non-small cell lung cancer in combination with checkpoint inhibitors for adult patients whose disease has progressed after standard therapy. This is the first regulatory approval for this indication anywhere in the world.

We view this lung cancer approval as validation of the core thesis behind our QUILT clinical trials: that ANKTIVA restores immune competence. In checkpoint-refractory patients who had exhausted standard options, ANKTIVA rescued lymphocyte populations and extended median overall survival to 21 months in patients who achieved higher immune competence, nearly three times historical outcomes.

Advancing the Science

The scientific rationale underlying our approach has never been stronger. Every cancer patient receives a complete blood count, yet the absolute lymphocyte count, a powerful predictor of outcomes, has been largely overlooked by oncology. Standard treatments including chemotherapy, radiation, and even some immunotherapies deplete the very immune cells needed to fight cancer. ANKTIVA is designed to help address this fundamental problem. Our RMAT designation for the reversal of lymphopenia in pancreatic cancer, our FDA Expanded Access authorization for solid tumors, and our Phase 3 NSCLC trial all advance a single hypothesis: restore the immune system, and patients survive longer.

Our off-the-shelf CAR-NK cell therapy platform reached another milestone this year with durable complete responses in Waldenström lymphoma. It is the first chemotherapy-free, lymphodepletion-free CAR cell therapy to demonstrate 100% disease control in this population, and it is administered entirely in the outpatient setting.

Helping Solve the BCG Shortage

For 14 years, a BCG shortage has left tens of thousands of bladder cancer patients without adequate treatment. Through our partnership with Serum Institute of India, we secured FDA authorization for an Expanded Access Program providing recombinant BCG to urologists nationwide. Shipments began in the first quarter of 2025. We continue to work with the FDA on pathways to make BCG permanently available.

Looking Ahead

As we enter 2026, our pipeline continues to advance toward registration across multiple indications. Our BCG-naïve trial has fully enrolled with interim results showing statistically significant improvements. Our glioblastoma registration trial is underway. Our Phase 3 NSCLC trial with BeiGene is enrolling patients. We remain committed to our mission: activating the patient’s natural immune defenses to achieve durable, lasting responses against cancer and infectious diseases. We call this Immunotherapy 2.0, and the results are validating our vision. Thank you for your continued support and confidence in ImmunityBio.

Sincerely,

Dr. Patrick Soon-Shiong, Executive Chairman and Global Chief Scientific and Medical Officer

Richard Adcock, President and Chief Executive Officer
