Intended to Manipulate Stock Price

SAN DIEGO, Aug. 12, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Sorrento Therapeutics, Inc. (
NASDAQ: SRNE, "Sorrento") announced today that it believes it has uncovered
fraudulent attempts to manipulate the Company’s stock.
On August 11, 2020, it was reported that an organization calling itself “
Hindenburg Research” published claims regrading one of Sorrento’s COVID-19
diagnostic products. The report is believed to include false and/or
misleading statements for the sole apparent purpose of negatively
manipulating the company’s stock price.
Sorrento will collaborate with law enforcement and regulators to ensure that
any criminal activity is investigated and rectified. Sorrento, through its
legal counsel, Paul Hastings LLP, has demanded that the organization cease
and desist from illegal and wrongful activity and retract false and/or
misleading statements. Sorrento is also considering legal action.
Sorrento Therapeutics remains focused on developing a portfolio of COVID-19
solutions that spans diagnostics, prevention, early intervention and rescue
therapies, including its rapid on-site detection test for SARS-CoV-2 Virus
in saliva.
