This summary description about us and our business highlights selected information contained elsewhere in this prospectus or incorporated in this prospectus by reference. This summary does not contain all of the information you should consider before investing in our common stock. You should carefully read this entire prospectus (as supplemented and amended), including each of the documents incorporated herein by reference, before making an investment decision. As used in this prospectus, the terms "we," "us," "our," "Immunomedics, Inc." and "Immunomedics" mean Immunomedics, Inc. and our subsidiaries.
Overview
Immunomedics is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing monoclonal antibody-based products for the targeted treatment of cancer, autoimmune disorders and other serious diseases. Our advanced proprietary technologies allow us to create humanized antibodies that can be used either alone in unlabeled or "naked" form, or conjugated with radioactive isotopes, chemotherapeutics, cytokines or toxins. Using these technologies, we have built a pipeline of seven clinical-stage product candidates.
Our portfolio of investigational products includes antibody-drug conjugates ("ADCs") that are designed to deliver a specific payload of a chemotherapeutic directly to the tumor while reducing overall toxicities that are usually found with conventional administration of these chemotherapeutic agents. Our most advanced ADCs are sacituzumab govitecan ("IMMU-132") and labetuzumab govitecan ("IMMU-130"), which are in Phase 2 trials for a number of solid tumors and metastatic colorectal cancer ("CRC"), respectively. IMMU-132 is our lead product candidate and has received Breakthrough Therapy Designation from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the "FDA") for the treatment of patients with triple-negative breast cancer ("TNBC") who have failed at least two prior therapies for metastatic disease.
Our Board of Directors (the "Board"), has conducted a review of the strategy of the Company, including a review of the projected timeline for submission of a Biologics License Applications ("BLA") for IMMU-132. These efforts to date have resulted in an updated timeline for the execution of delivering IMMU-132 to market, as well as the assessment of various deal structures and partnerships towards advancing and maximizing the Company's full pipeline for metastatic TNBC and beyond. We are targeting a BLA for IMMU-132 for approval in metastatic TNBC cancer between late fourth quarter 2017 and first quarter 2018, subject to FDA input on the acceptance of our chemistry, manufacturing and controls filing plan.
Our financial resources are adequate to sustain the Company's operations at a level of activity sufficient to support the filing of the BLA with the FDA for accelerated approval of IMMU-132 for patients with metastatic TNBC; to continue manufacturing IMMU-132 at large scale to prepare for commercial operations in the U.S. marketplace; to initiate a Phase 3 clinical trial of IMMU-132 for metastatic TNBC patients to support the filing of the BLA; to initiate preparations to market IMMU-132 to metastatic TNBC patients in the U.S. and, subject to meeting all standards, completing review and final determination of the FDA, to secure accelerated regulatory approval of IMMU-132 for metastatic TNBC patients.
We also have a research collaboration with Bayer to study epratuzumab as a thorium-227-labeled antibody and an ongoing collaboration in oncology in collaboration with an independent cancer study group.
We also have a number of other product candidates that target solid tumors and hematologic malignancies, as well as other diseases, in various stages of clinical and pre-clinical development. These include combination therapies involving our ADCs, bispecific antibodies targeting cancers and
1
infectious diseases as T-cell redirecting immunotherapies, as well as bispecific antibodies for next-generation cancer and autoimmune disease therapies, created using our patented DOCK-AND-LOCK® ("DNL®") protein conjugation technology. We believe that our portfolio of intellectual property provides commercially reasonable protection for our product candidates and technologies.
The development and commercialization of successful therapeutic products is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties including, without limitation, the following:

SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Certain statements contained in this prospectus, any prospectus supplement and in the documents incorporated by reference herein constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements other than statements of historical fact may be deemed to be forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements frequently, but not always, use the words "may", "estimate", "projects", "intends", "plans", "believes", "anticipates" or "expects" or similar words and may include statements concerning our strategies, goals and plans. All forward-looking statements are management's present expectations of future events and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, among other things: our inability to further identify, develop and achieve commercial success for new products and technologies; the possibility of delays in the research and development necessary to select drug development candidates and delays in clinical trials; the risk that clinical trials may not result in marketable products; the risk that we may be unable to obtain additional capital through strategic collaborations, licensing, convertible debt securities or equity financing in order to continue our research and development programs as well as secure regulatory approval of and market our drug candidates; our dependence upon pharmaceutical and biotechnology collaborations; the levels and timing of payments under our collaborative agreements; uncertainties about our ability to obtain new corporate collaborations and acquire new technologies on satisfactory terms, if at all; the development of competing products; our ability to protect our proprietary technologies; patent infringement claims; and risks of new, changing and competitive technologies and regulations in the United States and internationally; and other factors discussed under the caption "Risk Factors" included in any prospectus supplement and under the caption "Factors That May Affect Our Business and Results of Operations" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2017 and our subsequent quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, which are incorporated by reference into the Registration Statement of which this prospectus forms a part.
The following documents, among others, describe these assumptions, risks, uncertainties, and other factors. You should read and interpret any forward-looking statements together with these documents:
In light of these assumptions, risks and uncertainties, the results and events discussed in the forward-looking statements contained in this prospectus, any prospectus supplement or in any document incorporated by reference in this prospectus might not occur. Investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements, which speak only of the date of this prospectus, the date of any prospectus supplement or the date of the document incorporated by reference in this prospectus. We are not under any obligation, and we expressly disclaim any obligation, to update or alter any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required by applicable law. All subsequent forward-looking statements attributable to us are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained or referred to in this section.

We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of shares of our common stock sold pursuant to this prospectus by the selling stockholders. The selling stockholders will receive all of the proceeds from sales of our common stock sold pursuant to this prospectus.
A portion of the shares covered by this prospectus are issuable upon exercise of the Warrant to purchase an aggregate of 8,655,804 shares of our common stock. Pursuant to conditions set forth in the Warrant, the Warrant is exercisable for cash only. If the Warrant is exercised, we would receive gross proceeds of approximately $42.4 million.

We have agreed to pay all costs, expenses and fees relating to the registration of the shares of our common stock covered by this prospectus. The selling stockholders will pay any brokerage commissions and/or similar charges incurred in connection with the sale or other disposition by them of the shares covered hereby.

The shares of common stock being offered by the selling stockholders are (i) shares of common stock previously issued to SGEN pursuant to the SGEN SPA, (ii) shares of common stock issuable to SGEN upon the exercise of a Warrant, and (iii) shares of common stock issued to certain selling stockholders following the conversion of the Preferred Shares on August 24, 2017. For additional information regarding the issuances and terms of these securities, see "Prospectus SummarySummary of Seattle Genetics, Inc. Transaction" and "Prospectus SummarySummary of Private Placement" above. We are registering the shares of common stock in order to permit the selling stockholders, or their permitted transferees or other successors-in-interest that may be identified in a supplement to this prospectus or, if required, a post-effective amendment to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, to offer the shares for resale from time to time.
Except for the sale and issuance of the shares of common stock and the Warrant, and except as otherwise disclosed in the footnotes below, the selling stockholders have not had any material relationship with us within the past three years.
The table below lists the selling stockholders and other information regarding the beneficial ownership of the shares of common stock by each of the selling stockholders as of August 31, 2017. Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC and includes voting or investment power with respect to our common stock. Generally, a person "beneficially owns" shares of our common stock if the person has or shares with others the right to vote those shares or to dispose of them, or if the person has the right to acquire voting or disposition rights within 60 days. The second column lists the number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by each selling stockholder, based on each selling stockholder's ownership of shares of common stock and the Warrant, as of August 31, 2017, assuming full exercise of the Warrant on that date.
The third column lists the number of shares of common stock being offered by this prospectus by the selling stockholders. In accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement with certain of the selling stockholders, this prospectus covers the resale of the number of shares of common stock issued to the selling stockholders following the conversion of the Preferred Shares sold in the Private Placement. This prospectus also covers, in accordance with the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement with SGEN dated February 10, 2017, the resale by SGEN of the number of shares of common stock sold pursuant to the SGEN SPA and the number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrant.

common stock registered for resale by the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part will be sold, and (ii) no other shares of common stock will be acquired or sold by the selling stockholder before completion of this offering. However, the selling stockholders may sell all, part or none of their shares of common stock offered pursuant to this prospectus and may sell all, part or none of their common stock pursuant to one or more exemptions from the registration provisions of the Securities Act. Applicable percentage ownership following the offering is based on 134,398,491 shares of common stock that would be outstanding following the offering if all shares registered by this prospectus are sold in the offering.

Global Healthcare GP LLC, OrbiMed Advisors LLC and Samuel D. Isaly disclaims beneficial ownership of the shares held by OrbiMed Global Healthcare Master Fund, L.P., except to the extent of its or his pecuniary interest therein, if any.
9
The selling stockholders may, from time to time, sell any or all of their shares of common stock on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices, at prices related to prevailing market prices, at varying prices determined at the time of sale or at privately negotiated prices. The selling stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when selling shares:
The selling stockholders may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus.
Broker-dealers engaged by the selling stockholders may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the selling stockholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated. The selling stockholders do not expect these commissions and discounts to exceed what is customary in the types of transactions involved. Any profits on the resale of shares of common stock by a broker-dealer acting as principal might be deemed to be underwriting discounts or commissions under the Securities Act. Discounts, concessions, commissions and similar selling expenses, if any, attributable to the sale of shares will be borne by a selling stockholder. The selling stockholders may agree to indemnify any agent, dealer or broker-dealer that participates in transactions involving sales of the shares if liabilities are imposed on that person under the Securities Act.
The selling stockholders may from time to time pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the shares of common stock owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell the shares of common stock from time to time under this prospectus after we have filed a supplement to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act of 1933 supplementing or amending the list of selling stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling stockholders under this prospectus.
The selling stockholders also may transfer the shares of common stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus and may sell the shares of common stock from time to time under this prospectus after we have filed a supplement to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other
10
applicable provision of the Securities Act of 1933 supplementing or amending the list of selling stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling stockholders under this prospectus.
In connection with the sale of the shares of common stock or interests therein, the selling stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the shares of common stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The selling stockholders may also sell the shares of common stock short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions or to return borrowed shares in connection with such short sales, or loan or pledge the shares of common stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The selling stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or create one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of shares of common stock offered by this prospectus, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).
The selling stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the shares of common stock may be deemed to be "underwriters" within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares of common stock purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. In the event that any selling stockholder is deemed to be an "underwriter" within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act, the selling stockholder will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act.
We are required to pay all fees and expenses incident to the registration of the shares of common stock. We have agreed to indemnify the selling stockholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.
The selling stockholders have advised us that they have not entered into any agreements, understandings or arrangements with any underwriters or broker-dealers regarding the sale of their shares of common stock, nor is there an underwriter or coordinating broker acting in connection with a proposed sale of shares of common stock by any selling stockholder. If we are notified by any selling stockholder that any material arrangement has been entered into with a broker-dealer for the sale of shares of common stock, if required, we will file a supplement to this prospectus. If the selling stockholders use this prospectus for any sale of the shares of common stock, they will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act, unless an exemption therefrom is available.
The anti-manipulation rules of Regulation M under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 may apply to sales of our common stock and activities of the selling stockholders.
There can be no assurance that any selling stockholder will sell any or all of the shares of common stock we registered on behalf of the selling stockholders pursuant to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part.
Once sold under the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, the shares of common stock will be freely tradable in the hands of persons other than our affiliates.

After the payment of liquidation preferences to holders of any preferred stock, holders of common stock are entitled to receive, on a pro rata basis, all our remaining assets available for distribution to stockholders in the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up. Holders of common stock do not have any preemptive right to become subscribers or purchasers of additional shares of any class of our capital stock.

Delaware Law and Certain Certificate of Incorporation and By-Law Provisions
The provisions of Delaware law and of our certificate of incorporation and by-laws discussed below could discourage or make it more difficult to accomplish a proxy contest or other change in our management or the acquisition of control by a holder of a substantial amount of our voting stock. It is possible that these provisions could make it more difficult to accomplish, or could deter, transactions
12
that stockholders may otherwise consider to be in their best interests or the best interests of Immunomedics.
Warrants
Concurrently with the sale of the Common Shares to SGEN pursuant to the SGEN SPA, we also agreed to issue a three year Warrant to purchase an aggregate of 8,655,804 shares of our common stock. The Warrant is exercisable for cash only and only upon approval by the Company's stockholders of an amendment to the Company's certificate of incorporation, and filing thereof, increasing such number of shares of common stock in an amount sufficient to allow for the exercise of the Warrant, at an initial exercise price equal to $4.90 per share of common stock. The Warrant was issued on February 16, 2017 and was originally exercisable until February 10, 2020.
On May 4, 2017, we entered the Termination Agreement with SGEN. Pursuant to the Termination Agreement, we and SGEN agreed to relinquish our respective rights under the Licensing Agreement and agreed to amend the expiration date of the Warrant from February 10, 2020 to the later of (i) December 31, 2017, and (ii) the date that is six (6) months following the date on which a sufficient number of shares of our common stock is authorized and reserved for issuance to permit the full exercise of the SGEN Warrant.
The Termination Agreement between SGEN and us became effective on August 24, 2017, thirty days following the entry on July 25, 2017 of a final judgment by the Delaware Court of Chancery approving SGEN's dismissal from the venBio Action.
On June 29, 2017, our stockholders approved the Charter Amendment, which increased the number of our authorized capital stock, all classes, from 165,000,000 shares to 260,000,000 and which provided an amount of authorized common stock sufficient to allow for the exercise of the Warrant.

Registration Rights
Registration Rights Agreement
In connection with entering into the SGEN SPA, we entered into the Registration Rights Agreement with SGEN dated February 10, 2017, pursuant to which we granted customary registration rights to SGEN obligating the Company to register for resale under the Securities Act on Form S-3 the Common Shares and the shares of Common Stock for which the Warrant is exercisable.
Purchase Agreement
Included in the Purchase Agreement are provisions which require us to register the resale of the Preferred Shares and the common stock underlying the Preferred Shares. We are required to prepare and file a registration statement with the Commission within 30 days following approval by the Company's stockholders of the Charter Amendment and the subsequent effectiveness of the Charter Amendment, and to use commercially reasonable efforts to have the registration statement declared effective within 90 days if there is no review by the SEC, and within 120 days in the event of such review.
