Item 8.01 Other Events.
On August 9, 2026, Replimune
Group, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Leerink
Partners LLC, J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, and Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. (“Cantor”) (each, an “Underwriter”
and, collectively, the “Underwriters”), relating to the issuance and sale of an aggregate of 9,701,490 shares of the Company’s
common stock (the “Shares”) and pre-funded warrants to purchase 2,736,340 shares of the Company’s common stock (the
“Pre-Funded Warrants”) to the Underwriters (the “Offering”). The Shares will be sold at the offering price of
$12.06 per share and the Pre-Funded Warrants will be sold at an offering price of $12.0599 per Pre-Funded Warrant, which equals the per
share offering price for the Shares less the $0.0001 exercise price for each such Pre-Funded Warrant. The Underwriting Agreement contains
customary representations and warranties, conditions to closing, market standoff provisions, termination provisions and indemnification
obligations, including for liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The representations, warranties and covenants contained
in the Underwriting Agreement were made only for purposes of such agreement and as of specific dates, and were solely for the benefit
of the parties to the Underwriting Agreement.
The Pre-Funded Warrants are
exercisable at any time after the date of issuance. A holder of Pre-Funded Warrants may not exercise the warrant if the holder, together
with its affiliates, would beneficially own more than 9.99% of the number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding immediately
after giving effect to such exercise. A holder of Pre-Funded Warrants may increase or decrease this percentage not in excess of 9.99%
by providing at least 61 days’ prior notice to the Company.
The Company estimates
that net proceeds from the Offering will be approximately $140.5 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and
estimated Offering expenses payable by the Company. Delivery of the Shares and the Pre-Funded Warrants is expected to be made on or
about August 11, 2026, subject to customary closing conditions. The Offering is being made pursuant to the Registration
Statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-287536) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
“Commission”) on May 23, 2025, as amended by Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement on Form S-3
filed on November 6, 2025 (as so amended, the “Shelf Registration Statement”), pursuant to the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).
The Underwriting Agreement
and the form of Pre-Funded Warrant are filed as Exhibits 1.1 and 4.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, respectively and the foregoing
description of the terms of the Underwriting Agreement and the Pre-Funded Warrants are qualified in their entirety by reference to such

Company issued a press release announcing the pricing of the Offering. A copy of this press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 hereto.

About Replimune
Replimune Group, Inc., headquartered in Woburn,
MA, was founded in 2015 with the mission to transform cancer treatment by pioneering the development of novel oncolytic immunotherapies,
including the Company’s first commercially available product TUDRIQEVTM (vusolimogene oderparepvec-wtpg), approved under accelerated
approval by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in combination with nivolumab for the treatment of adults with advanced melanoma who
experienced disease progression on a PD-1 antibody-based regimen. Replimune’s proprietary RPx platform is based on a potent HSV-1
backbone intended to maximize immunogenic cell death and induce a systemic anti-tumor immune response. Upon intratumor injection, RPx
causes direct selective virus-mediated killing of the tumor resulting in the release of tumor derived antigens, alteration of the tumor
microenvironment, and when dosed in combination with an immune checkpoint inhibitor immunotherapy, it may ignite a systemic anti-tumor
response. The RPx product candidates are expected to be synergistic with most established and experimental cancer treatment modalities,
leading to the versatility to be developed alone or combined with a variety of other treatment options.
Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains forward looking statements
within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended, including statements regarding the timing of closing of our offering, the gross proceeds we expect to receive from
our offering and other statements identified by words such as “could,” “expects,” “intends,” “may,”
“plans,” “potential,” “should,” “will,” “would,” or similar expressions and
the negatives of those terms. Forward-looking statements are not promises or guarantees of future performance and are subject to a variety
of risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control, and which could cause actual results to differ materially from those
contemplated in such forward-looking statements. These factors include risks related to our limited experience in commercializing products
for sale, our ability to successfully verify the clinical benefit of TUDRIQEV in our ongoing confirmatory Phase 3 trial, IGNYTE-3,
our ability to meet our product manufacturing goal, the timing and scope of future regulatory approvals, the availability of combination
therapies needed to conduct our clinical trials, changes in laws and regulations to which we are subject, competitive pressures, our ability
to identify additional product candidates, the impact of political and global macro factors and military conflicts, and other risks as
may be detailed from time to time in our Annual Reports on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and other reports we
file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Our actual results could differ materially from the results described in or implied
by such forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date hereof, and, except as required by law, we undertake
no obligation to update or revise these forward-looking statements.
