Perceptive Advisors LLC, Joseph Edelman and Perceptive Life Sciences Master Fund, Ltd. report beneficial ownership of 1,489,443 shares of Inhibrx Biosciences, Inc. common stock, representing 9.99% of the class. This percentage is based on 14,717,660 shares outstanding as of August 7, 2026, plus shares issuable under certain warrants.
The Master Fund directly holds 1,297,763 common shares and 732,157 pre-funded warrants, each immediately exercisable at $0.0001 per share. Because of a 9.99% Beneficial Ownership Limitation, the reporting group currently may exercise warrants for only 191,680 shares, and assumes the remaining warrants are not exercisable for ownership-calculation purposes. Perceptive Advisors, as investment manager, and Mr. Edelman, as managing member, may be deemed to share voting and dispositive power over the same 1,489,443 shares.

Beneficial Ownership Limitation9.99%Cap on beneficial ownership after warrant exercise as specified in the warrant terms
"The terms of the Pre-Funded Warrants provide that the Pre-Funded Warrants may not be exercised if, after such exercise, the Reporting Persons would beneficially own... more than 9.99%... (the "Beneficial Ownership Limitation")."
A beneficial ownership limitation is a rule that caps the percentage of a company’s shares an investor can be treated as owning or controlling for voting, regulatory or tax purposes. It matters to investors because it can restrict how many shares a person or group can buy or vote, affect takeover chances, and influence share liquidity and value — like a speed limit that prevents any single driver from taking over the whole road.
pre-funded warrantsfinancial
"The Master Fund directly holds 1,297,763 shares of Common Stock and 732,157 pre-funded warrants (the "Pre-Funded Warrants") immediately exercisable..."
Pre-funded warrants are financial instruments that give investors the right to purchase a company's stock at a set price, but with most or all of the purchase price paid upfront. They function like a coupon or gift card for stock, allowing investors to buy shares later at a fixed price, which can be beneficial if they want to avoid future price increases. This makes them important for investors seeking flexibility and certainty in their investment plans.
beneficially ownregulatory
"The terms of the Pre-Funded Warrants provide that the Pre-Funded Warrants may not be exercised if, after such exercise, the Reporting Persons would beneficially own..."
Beneficially own means having the economic rights and risks of a security—such as the right to receive dividends, sell the shares, or profit from price changes—whether or not your name appears on the official share register. Think of it like renting a car: you use it and reap the benefits even if the title lists someone else. Investors care because beneficial ownership determines who truly controls value, must be disclosed under securities rules, and can signal potential influence or trading activity that affects a stock’s price.
dispositive powerfinancial
"Shared Dispositive Power 1,489,443.00... Shared power to dispose or to direct the disposition of: Perceptive Advisors: 1,489,443..."
Dispositive power is the authority to decide the final outcome of an asset, legal claim, contract, or corporate action — in effect the power to dispose of or resolve something. For investors it matters because whoever holds that authority can determine who gets paid, who controls an asset or vote, and how risks and returns are allocated; think of it like holding the key that lets you lock in the winner or loser in a deal.
Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934regulatory
"beneficially own, as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended..."
Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is a U.S. rule that requires anyone who buys more than 5% of a public company’s shares to publicly disclose who they are, how many shares they own, and their intentions toward the company. For investors, this is like a neighborhood alert when someone acquires a large stake in a building: it reveals potential changes in control or strategy that could affect the stock’s price, governance, or future direction.

As of the date hereof, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation permits the Reporting Persons to exercise Pre-Funded Warrants for an aggregate of not more than 191,680 shares of Common Stock. In providing the beneficial ownership information set forth herein, the Reporting Persons have assumed that the remaining Pre-Funded Warrants held by the Reporting Persons are not exercisable due to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation.
