OncBioMune Provides Update on Market Activity

16-02-2018

BATON ROUGE, La., Feb. 16, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- OncBioMune Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (OTCQB:OBMP) ("OncBioMune" or the "Company"), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company engaged in the development of a proprietary immunotherapy cancer vaccine technology and targeted cancer therapies, wishes to make the following statements regarding recent market activity in its common stock traded on the OTCQB marketplace.

On February 12, 2018, the Company was informed by OTC Markets about certain promotional activity in relation to OBMP common stock, including newsletter emails.  From time to time, the Company engages investor relations services to provide advertising and communication services for news and corporate information.  Since January 1, 2017, the Company has engaged RCI, American Capital Ventures, Inc. and Viper Enterprises LLC.  All communications are to remain within parameters of public information and corporate facts.  Neither the Company, its officers, directors or to its knowledge any shareholders participate in material creation or have any control in its content or dissemination.   Until being notified by OTC Markets, the Company was unaware of the identified promotional activity and remains unaware of the full nature of any promotional activity or the extent of its dissemination.  The Company, to its knowledge, has not compensated the creators of the identified promotional activity.    None of the statements regarding the fundamentals of the Company brought to the attention of the Company were materially false or misleading.  Since being informed by OTC Markets, the Company has not engaged any additional investor relations, advertising and communications services and has no current intentions of doing so going forward.   

The Company attributes any increase in trading volumes to news of a letter of intent with an esteemed urology clinic in Texas, disbanding of the joint venture in Mexico as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission to focus on domestic development of ProscaVax for prostate cancer and developments with a major Northeastern U.S. university for a Phase 2 trial of ProscaVax for early-stage prostate cancer.  The Company has also increased the number of issued and outstanding common stock over the past few months due to the conversions of convertible notes, as discussed below, which can contribute to increased volume levels.   

Neither of the company's executive officers or directors, nor, to the knowledge of the company, any controlling shareholders sold or purchased shares of common stock of the company within the past 90 days (or anytime in recent years for that matter).  Leadership remains steadfast in commitment to develop shareholder value through pipeline development.

In order to fund ProscaVax development and general corporate expenses, the Company previously issued convertible debentures, as disclosed with details readily available through regular filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission in current reports filed on January 30, 2018,  July 26, 2017, June 6, 2017 and November 28, 2016.  In recent months, these convertible instruments have been being converted into equity securities at prices discounted to the market price of OBMP stock at the time of issuance, per the issued securities’ terms. 

The Company is committed to compliance with the OTC Markets Group policy on stock promotion and the OTCQB standards. The Company encourages those interested in the Company to rely solely on information included in press releases issued and distributed by the Company through approved news wire or disclosure and news services, combined with its filings and disclosures made with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as well as information provided through the OTC Markets and OncBioMune websites.
