ImmunityBio, Inc. (NASDAQ: IBRX), a leading immunotherapy company, today announced its financial results for the fiscal quarter and six months ended June 30, 2025.

In the second quarter of 2025, ImmunityBio reported $26.4 million in revenue, representing a 60% increase from $16.5 million in the first quarter of 2025. This growth reflects continued commercial traction of ANKTIVA in combination with BCG in BCG-unresponsive NMIBC with carcinoma in situ (CIS) with or without Papillary tumors. The first half 2025 sales of $42.9 million represents a 246% increase in unit volume during the first two quarters of 2025 since the J-code approval versus the last two quarters of 2024. The Company ended the quarter with $153.7 million in cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities as of June 30, 2025.

“ANKTIVA continues to deliver clinical results and promising commercial potential for ImmunityBio,” said Richard Adcock, President and CEO of ImmunityBio. “We’re seeing robust demand across U.S. urology practices of all sizes, driven in part by ANKTIVA’s ease of storage and administration. With commercial authorization now in place in the UK, we’re actively evaluating our go-to-market strategy for this important initial global market. In parallel, our recombinant BCG (rBCG) therapeutic has been administered safely to more than 150 patients to date in the United States under the expanded access protocol, helping urologists address the ongoing BCG shortage in the U.S. The recent equity financing further strengthens our balance sheet and enables us to accelerate key studies.”

“Our goal has always been to use our innovative science to attack a broad range of cancers, and we are deeply committed to this goal in order to meet the urgent needs of millions of patients,” said Dr. Patrick Soon-Shiong, Founder, Executive Chairman and Global Chief Scientific and Medical Officer of ImmunityBio. “To that end, we’ve begun global expansion of key clinical trials, including those for BCG-naïve NMIBC and second-line lung cancer. In addition, we’ve initiated enrollment across multiple trials to validate our novel lymphopenia rescue agent in prolonging duration of survival across multiple tumor types—a critical effort to address this life-threatening immune deficiency, and is often triggered by chemotherapy, radiation, or some immunotherapies.”

Second-Quarter Ended June 30, 2025 Financial Summary and Comparison to Prior Year Quarter

Product Revenue, Net

Product revenue, net increased $25.4 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024, due to an increase in sales of ANKTIVA, which was approved in April 2024.

Research and Development Expense

Research and development (R&D) expense increased $4.1 million to $55.2 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to $51.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2024. The increase was due to higher manufacturing costs and higher distribution costs driven by more production and clinical trial activities, and higher license fees, partially offset by fewer sponsored research agreements.

Selling, General and Administrative Expense

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expense decreased $6.9 million to $42.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to $49.2 million during the three months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease was due to lower costs related to litigation settlements and commercial consulting activities.

Net Loss Attributable to ImmunityBio Common Stockholders

Net loss attributable to ImmunityBio common stockholders was $92.6 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $134.6 million during the three months ended June 30, 2024. The reduction of loss was primarily driven by increased product revenue, lower SG&A expense described above, lower related-party interest expense, changes in the fair value of warrant liabilities and a related-party convertible note, partially offset by changes in the fair value of derivative liabilities and an increase in interest expense related to the revenue interest liability.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2025 Financial Summary and Comparison to Prior Year Six Months Ended

Product Revenue, Net

Product revenue, net increased $41.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024, due to an increase in sales of ANKTIVA, which was approved in April 2024.

Research and Development Expense

R&D expense decreased $1.0 million to $103.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to $104.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease was mainly due to a reduction in outside service costs, CMO fees and drug materials purchased and used in manufacturing, partially offset by an increase in clinical trial costs and by higher manufacturing costs driven by increased production activities.

Selling, General and Administrative Expense

SG&A expense decreased $16.1 million to $75.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to $91.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease was primarily driven by lower costs related to litigation settlements and commercial consulting activities, partially offset by higher stock-based compensation expense, recruiting and training expenses, salaries, benefits and commissions, and travel expenses due to growing sales and marketing activities.

Net Loss Attributable to ImmunityBio Common Stockholders

Net loss attributable to ImmunityBio common stockholders was $222.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $268.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024. This reduction of loss was primarily driven by increased product revenue, lower R&D and SG&A expense described above, lower related-party interest expense, and changes in the fair value of warrant liabilities, partially offset by changes in the fair value of derivative liabilities and a related-party convertible note, an increase in interest expense related to the revenue interest liability and lower interest and investment income.

About ANKTIVA

The cytokine interleukin-15 (IL-15) plays a crucial role in the immune system by affecting the development, maintenance, and function of key immune cells—NK and CD8+ killer T cells—that are involved in killing cancer cells. By activating natural killer (NK) cells, ANKTIVA overcomes the tumor escape phase of clones resistant to T cells and restores memory T cell activity with resultant prolonged duration of complete response.

ANKTIVA is a first-in-class IL-15 agonist IgG1 fusion complex, consisting of an IL-15 mutant (IL-15N72D) fused with an IL-15 receptor alpha, which binds with high affinity to IL-15 receptors on NK, CD4+, and CD8+ T cells. This fusion complex of ANKTIVA mimics the natural biological properties of the membrane-bound IL-15 receptor alpha, delivering IL-15 by dendritic cells and drives the activation and proliferation of NK cells with the generation of memory killer T cells that have retained immune memory against these tumor clones. The proliferation of the trifecta of these immune killing cells and the activation of trained immune memory results in immunogenic cell death, inducing a state of equilibrium with durable complete responses. ANKTIVA has improved pharmacokinetic properties, longer persistence in lymphoid tissues, and enhanced anti-tumor activity compared to native, non-complexed IL-15 in-vivo.

ANKTIVA was approved by the FDA in 2024and by UK MHRA in 2025 for BCG-unresponsive non-muscle invasive bladder cancer CIS with or without papillary tumors. For more information, visit Anktiva.com.

About ImmunityBio

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 and cell therapy platforms, alone and together, act to drive and sustain an immune response with the goal of creating durable and 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 NK 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.
