Secured $26 Million in PIPE Financing Led by a Top-Tier Biotech Investor to Advance Preclinical Programs and Extend Cash Runway

Progressed Pipeline with New Preclinical Data and Scientific Presentations at Leading Industry Conferences

SAN DIEGO, Feb. 10, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- iBio, Inc. (NASDAQ:IBIO), an AI-driven innovator of precision antibody therapies, today reported financial results for the second quarter ended Dec. 31, 2025, and provided a corporate update on its progress.

“We have significantly advanced our preclinical pipeline programs - IBIO-610, our activin E antibody, and IBIO-600, our myostatin antibody - towards the start of human clinical trials by initiating CMC development and toxicology studies,” said Martin Brenner, Ph.D., DVM, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Scientific Officer of iBio. “Additionally, we recently completed a $26 million private placement financing with a highly respected biotech investor, strengthening our resources for pipeline progress and taking us one step closer to fulfilling our mission of reaching patients in need of an accessible, transformative therapy for obesity. The positive news positions us well to execute on our planned milestones and corporate priorities throughout 2026 and 2027.”

Second Fiscal Quarter 2026 & Recent Corporate Updates:

Financial Results:

No revenue was recognized for the three months ending December 31, 2025. Revenue of $0.2 million was recognized for the three months ending December 31, 2024.

Research and Development (“R&D”) expenses for the three months ending December 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, were $4.3 million and $1.9 million, respectively, an increase of approximately $2.4 million. The increase in R&D expenses is mainly due to increased spending on consultants and outside services supporting the Company’s R&D efforts, including conducting the NHP studies and CMC activities, and an increase in personnel costs as a result of advancing research activities for the Company’s IBIO-600 and IBIO-610 programs and other preclinical pipeline assets. The increase was partially offset by decreased spending on consumable supplies.

General and Administrative expenses for the three months ending December 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, were approximately $5.2 million and $2.7 million, respectively, an increase of $2.5 million. The increase is primarily attributable to the impairment of the Company’s indefinite lived intangible asset IBIO-101.

iBio held cash, cash equivalents and investments in debt securities of $52.7 million as of December 31, 2025. In addition, in January 2026, the Company received net proceeds of approximately $24.4 million from the PIPE financing extending the Company’s cash runway into third quarter of fiscal year 2028.
