VICTORIA, BC, Sept. 10, 2020 /PRNewswire/ - IMMUNOPRECISE ANTIBODIES LTD. (the "Company" or "IPA") (TSX VENTURE: IPA) (OTCQB: IPATF) ( FSE:TQB2), a provider of best-in-class therapeutic antibody discovery capabilities for the global pharmaceutical and biotech industries, is pleased to announce that it has commenced the application process to dual list its stock on the NASDAQ Capital Market ("NASDAQ").

Our plan to move to a senior U.S. exchange reflects our success and momentum in growing our CRO business, as well as advancement of our robust therapeutic pipeline. Moreover, we believe that listing on Nasdaq will provide a broader platform as we execute on upcoming catalysts, including near-term milestones related to our COVID-19 therapeutic and diagnostic programs.  We believe that listing on Nasdaq will also help broaden our shareholder base, increase appeal to institutional investors, allow for inclusion in key indexes and ETFs, as well as provide shareholders with enhanced liquidity."
