Item 8.01 Other Events.

On February 12, 2026, Coherus Oncology, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with TD Securities (USA) LLC, Guggenheim Securities, LLC and Oppenheimer & Co. Inc. as representatives (the “Representatives”) of the several underwriters named therein (collectively, the “Underwriters”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell an aggregate of 28,600,000 shares (the “Firm Shares”) of its common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”) to the Underwriters (the “Offering”). Additionally, under the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, the Company granted the Underwriters an option, for 30 days from the date of the Underwriting Agreement, solely for the purpose of covering over-allotments, if any, to purchase up to an additional 4,290,000 shares of Common Stock (the “Optional Shares,” and together with the Firm Shares, the “Shares”). The price to the public in the Offering was $1.75 per share. The Underwriters agreed to purchase the Shares from the Company pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement at a price of $1.645 per share.

The Offering was made under a prospectus supplement and related prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Company’s effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-291520). 

On February 17, 2026, the Company completed the sale and issuance of an aggregate of 28,600,000 shares of Common Stock. The Company received net proceeds of approximately $47.0 million, after deducting the Underwriters’ discounts and commissions but before estimated offering expenses payable by the Company.

The Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, covenants and agreements by the Company, customary conditions to closing, indemnification obligations of the Company and the Underwriters, including for liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, other obligations of the parties and termination provisions. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Underwriting Agreement were made only for purposes of such agreement and as of specific dates, were solely for the benefit of the parties to such agreement, and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties. The Company and the Company’s directors, executive officers and certain stockholders that are affiliated with the Company’s directors also agreed not to sell or transfer any Common Stock for 60 days after February 12, 2026, without first obtaining the written consent of the Representatives, subject to certain exceptions as described in the prospectus supplement.

A copy of the Underwriting Agreement, including the form of lock-up agreement, is attached as Exhibit 1.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing descriptions of the Underwriting Agreement and lock-up agreements are not complete descriptions thereof, and are qualified in their entirety by reference to such exhibit.

A copy of the opinion of Latham & Watkins LLP relating to the validity of the securities issued in the Offering is filed herewith as Exhibit 5.1.
