ANTIBE THERAPEUTICS PROVIDES FINANCIAL UPDATE

TORONTO, CANADA — (April 3, 2018) – Antibe Therapeutics Inc. (“Antibe” or the “Company”) (TSXV: ATE, OTCQB: ATBPF), a leader in developing safer therapeutics for pain and inflammation that recently announced a successful Phase 2B clinical trial demonstrating the gastrointestinal safety of its lead drug, reports that the Company now has a significantly augmented balance sheet.

Augmented cash position from warrant exercises

In the period since January 1st, 2018, Antibe has received proceeds of approximately $4 million from warrant exercises. These proceeds bring the Company’s consolidated cash balance to nearly $5 million as of today. In addition, the Company has the potential to raise an additional $6 million from existing warrants that are significantly in-the-money.

Significant reduction in debt through conversion of debentures

The Company has also received conversions of approximately $3 million, representing nearly the entire balance of its existing convertible debentures that mature in October 2018. With the conversion of these debentures, Antibe is now effectively debt-free apart from a standard operating line that resides with its subsidiary, Citagenix Inc. (“Citagenix”).

Dan Legault, Antibe’s CEO commented, “We are grateful to our existing shareholders and convertible debenture holders, who, based on the strong Phase 2B GI safety results, have decided to exercise warrants and convert their debt. This has the compound effect of adding to our cash balance while reducing our liabilities, and puts us in a great position to continue our partnering activities with strategic pharmaceutical companies, which we desire to complete within 12 months. Furthermore, we are now in a position to fully fund our previously announced Phase 2 effectiveness study with cash-on-hand. This Phase 2, double-blind, dose-ranging study is estimated to cost approximately $2.6 million and will be completed this year in parallel with our global partnering efforts.”
