Our enhanced financial position has permitted us to accelerate the AstralBio collaboration, and we’ve already begun recruiting for key positions to support the process of identifying new molecules that are expected to simultaneously expand and diversify our pipeline. We believe we are well-positioned to advance our internal pipeline priorities in immuno-oncology and cardiometabolics, and drive partnerships in new therapeutic areas.”\nFiscal Third Quarter 2024 & Recent Corporate Updates:\n\nEntered into a securities purchase agreement for a fully subscribed private investment in public equity (“PIPE”) financing with several institutional investors and an accredited investor in March, and consummated the financing in April for gross proceeds of approximately $15.0M before deducting placement agent fees and offering expenses.\nEntered into a collaboration with AstralBio, Inc. to provide an exclusive license in the cardiometabolic and obesity space. iBio will develop four targets of interest, with the Company having the rights to license up to three of these targets prior to entering the clinic.\nIn February, iBio closed the sale of its early-stage PD-1 asset to Otsuka Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.
