MELBOURNE, Australia, July 02, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Propanc Biopharma, Inc. (NASDAQ:PPCB) ("Propanc" or the "Company"), a biopharmaceutical company focused on developing novel treatments for chronic diseases, including recurrent and metastatic cancer, today announced it has initiated a share repurchase program authorizing the Company to repurchase a first tranche of up to $500,000 over the next 30-day period.

"We are pleased to commence this share repurchase program with this initial commitment, as we strongly believe the Company is entering a transformative stage of development as it advances its lead asset, PRP, into the clinic," said Mr. James Nathanielsz, Propanc’s Chief Executive Officer. "As a first-in-class therapy, we believe that PRP has the potential to transform metastatic cancer to a chronic disease rather than a life ending one. Therefore, we feel strongly about undertaking important corporate actions that reflect the true value of our shareholders’ equity. We look forward to continuing this program over the next 30-day period, and beyond."

Under the share repurchase program, the Company may buy back its common stock from time to time, in amounts, at prices, and at such times as the Company deems appropriate, subject to market conditions, pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and federal and state laws governing such transactions, through a variety of methods, which may include open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, block trades, accelerated share repurchase transactions, purchases through 10b5-1 trading plans, or by any combination of such methods. The repurchase program does not oblige the Company to acquire any specific number of shares and may be modified, discontinued, or suspended at any time.
