01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. On October 12, 2025, ADC Therapeutics SA (the "Company") entered into securities purchase agreements for the sale of its equity securities to certain institutional investors in a $60.0 million private placement. In the private placement, the Company will sell 11,250,000 common shares at $4.00 per share and pre-funded warrants to purchase 3,846,153 common shares at $3.90 per pre-funded warrant, which is the price per common share in the private placement minus the exercise price per pre-funded warrant. The private placement is expected to close on October 27, 2025, subject to customary closing conditions. The purchase agreements provide certain registration rights, pursuant to which the Company has agreed to file a registration statement within 30 business days to register the resale of the common shares sold in the private placement and the common shares issuable upon exercise of the pre-funded warrants sold in the private placement. The private placement is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act in that the private placement is between an issuer and sophisticated investors not involving any public offering. The Company is relying on this exemption from registration based in part on representations made in the purchase agreements for the private placement, a form of which is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.1. The pre-funded warrants are exercisable at any time after their original issuance until the tenth anniversary of their original issuance. At any time during the last 90 days of the term, the holder may exchange the pre-funded warrant for, and the Company will issue, a new pre-funded warrant for the number of common shares then remaining under the pre-funded warrant. The pre-funded warrants will be exercisable, at the option of each holder, in whole or in part (but no

A copy of the corporate presentation is attached as Exhibit 99.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein. The ZYNLONTA net product revenues and cash and cash equivalents figures are preliminary and unaudited and reflect the Company's estimated financial results.

Accordingly, investors should not place undue reliance on these preliminary financial results. The information contained in this Item 2.02, Exhibit 99.1 and Exhibit 99.2 shall not be deemed to be "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
