Antibe Therapeutics Receives Conditional Approval to Graduate to the Toronto Stock Exchange

TORONTO--()--Antibe Therapeutics Inc. (TSXV: ATE, OTCQB: ATBPF), a clinical stage company leveraging its unique hydrogen sulfide platform to develop safer medicines for pain and inflammation, is pleased to announce that it has received conditional approval from the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) to graduate from the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSXV”) and list its common shares on the TSX.

“Graduating to the TSX is an important milestone for Antibe, reflecting both our progress and potential,” remarked Dan Legault, Antibe’s CEO. “With partnering activities expanding and preparations for our first Phase III study fully underway, this is the right time to broaden our investor base and raise the Company’s profile in the investment community. We appreciate the support of our shareholders and the efforts of the TSXV and TSX as we implement the next phase of our corporate strategy.”

Final approval of the listing is subject to the Company meeting certain standard and customary conditions required by the TSX. Once these conditions are satisfied, Antibe’s shares will begin trading on the TSX under its existing ticker symbol “ATE” and will be delisted from the TSXV. Shareholders will not be required to take any action in connection with the graduation. The Company will make a further announcement once the TSX confirms the date on which its shares will commence trading.
