LAS VEGAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--PharmaCyte Biotech, Inc.

Tender Offer The Company intends to commence the tender offer today, May 11, 2023. The tender offer is scheduled to expire at 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on June 9, 2023, unless extended or earlier terminated (the “expiration date”). The purchase of common stock in connection with the tender offer will be funded entirely through the Company’s cash on hand.

None of the Company or its Board of Directors, the Information Agent for the tender offer, or the Depositary for the tender offer will make any recommendation to shareholders as to whether to tender or refrain from tendering their shares in the tender offer.

PharmaCyte’s CEO Josh Silverman commented, “We continue to evaluate our current assets, which are intended to address a highly unmet medical need in pancreatic cancer. However, given that we are unable at this time to provide shareholders with a definitive timeframe on when we expect to have completed that evaluation or to predict what steps we will take following our evaluation, we believe it is in the best interest of both the Company and its shareholders to provide the opportunity for existing, and in some cases long-time, shareholders to move on, while still allowing those dedicated to the Company to remain for what may be a very long process until regulatory approval of any commercial asset. Based on our current cash position, in-house assets, and a simultaneous search for additional assets that we believe would be accretive to the Company, we believe our current strategy and activities have the highest potential to maximize shareholder value. Our financing helps to maintain our very favorable cash position, and we are grateful to all of our shareholders, regardless of their actions around this tender offer, for their loyalty and patience in this continued time of transition for the Company. We look forward to the time when we are able to provide more specific updates regarding Cell-in-a-Box or a potential strategic acquisition.” The tender offer described in this press release has not yet commenced.

About PharmaCyte Biotech PharmaCyte is a biotechnology company that is currently evaluating its signature live-cell encapsulation technology, Cell-in-a-Box®, for potential development of cellular therapies for cancer, diabetes, and malignant ascites, while also exploring the opportunity for other strategic acquisitions. The Cell-in-a Box technology involves encapsulating genetically engineered human cells that can then be reintroduced to attack disease. The Company is exploring possible utility in cancer (particularly pancreatic), Type 1 and insulin-dependent Type 2 diabetes, and malignant ascites. However, until the review by the Business Review Committee and the Board is complete and the Board has determined the actions and plans to be implemented, the Board has curtailed spending on the foregoing programs.

LAS VEGAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--PharmaCyte Biotech, Inc. (Nasdaq:PMCB) (“PharmaCyte” or the “Company”), a biotechnology company focused on evaluating its signature live-cell encapsulation technology, Cell-in-a-Box® for potential development of cellular therapies for cancer, diabetes and malignant ascites, announced today that its Board of Directors has authorized a second share repurchase program to repurchase up to $10 million of PharmaCyte’s outstanding common stock. This second share repurchase authorization is effective immediately for a two-year period. PharmaCyte expects to fund the program with its available cash. The Company enacted a similar program in June 2022. PharmaCyte’s CEO Josh Silverman commented, “Based on our continued and very fortunate cash position, we believe it is essential that we continue to create additional shareholder value wherever and whenever possible. We believe this follow-on stock buyback program is an essential part of these activities and believe that it demonstrates our commitment to our shareholder base. To that end, we also continue to prudently manage our expenses to maintain our strong balance sheet. In the meantime, we continue our evaluation of our current programs while actively exploring the potential for other strategic opportunities.” The shares may be repurchased from time to time in open market transactions, privately negotiated block transactions, or other means in accordance with applicable securities laws. The timing of the purchase, the number of shares repurchased, and the prices paid for the shares under the program will depend on general business and market conditions, the trading price of PharmaCyte’s common stock and corporate and regulatory limitations. The share repurchase program does not obligate PharmaCyte to acquire a specific dollar amount or number of shares and may be extended, modified, or discontinued at any time. About PharmaCyte Biotech PharmaCyte is a biotechnology company focused on evaluating its signature live-cell encapsulation technology, Cell-in-a-Box®, for potential development of cellular therapies for cancer, diabetes and malignant ascites. PharmaCyte’s candidate therapy for cancer involves encapsulating genetically engineered human cells that convert an inactive chemotherapy drug into its active or “cancer-killing” form. For pancreatic cancer, these encapsulated cells are to be implanted in the blood supply to the patient’s tumor as close as possible to the site of the tumor. Once implanted, a chemotherapy drug that is normally activated in the liver (ifosfamide) will be given intravenously at one-third the normal dose. The ifosfamide is to be carried by the circulatory system to where the encapsulated cells have been implanted. When the ifosfamide flows through pores in the capsules, the live cells inside are expected to act as a “bio-artificial liver” and activate the chemotherapy drug at the site of the cancer. PharmaCyte’s candidate therapy for Type 1 diabetes and insulin-dependent Type 2 diabetes involves encapsulating a human cell line that has been genetically engineered to produce and release insulin in response to the levels of blood sugar in the human body. The encapsulation of the cell line will be done using the Cell-in-a-Box® technology. Once the encapsulated cells are implanted in a diabetic patient, we anticipate that they will function as a “bio-artificial pancreas” for purposes of insulin production. PharmaCyte’s therapy for malignant ascites involves using the same encapsulated cells PharmaCyte employs for pancreatic cancer but placing the encapsulated cells in the peritoneal cavity of a patient and administering ifosfamide intravenously. Until the review by the Business Review Committee and the Board is complete and the Board has determined the actions and plans to be implemented, the Board has curtailed spending on the foregoing programs.
