We are also offering for sale an aggregate 17,456 shares of Common Stock that are issuable at an exercise price of $0.01 per share upon exercise of the currently outstanding pre-funded warrants (each a “Pre-funded Warrant” and, collectively, the “Pre-funded Warrants” and together with the Series F Warrants, the “Outstanding Warrants”) that we issued in a public offering in May 2020.
We will receive the proceeds from any cash exercises of the Outstanding Warrants.

Each Pre-funded Warrant is exercisable upon issuance and does not expire prior to exercise in full. If all these Outstanding Warrants are exercised for cash, we will receive aggregate proceeds of approximately $18.5 million for the Outstanding Warrants.

Company Overview
We are an interventional oncology company focused on the treatment of primary cancers metastatic to the liver. Our lead product, the HEPZATO KIT (melphalan for Injection/Hepatic Delivery System), a drug/device combination product, was approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) on August 14, 2023, indicated as a liver-directed treatment for adult patients with uveal melanoma with unresectable hepatic metastases affecting less than 50% of the liver and no extrahepatic disease, or extrahepatic disease limited to the bone, lymph nodes, subcutaneous tissues, or lung that is amenable to resection, or radiation. The first commercial use of HEPZATO for the treatment of metastatic hepatic dominant uveal melanoma (“mUM”) took place in January 2024.
In the United States, HEPZATO is considered a combination drug and device product and is regulated as a drug by the FDA. Primary jurisdiction for regulation of HEPZATO has been assigned to the FDA’s Center for Drug Evaluation and Research. The FDA has granted us six orphan drug designations (five for melphalan in the treatment of patients with ocular (uveal) melanoma, cutaneous melanoma, intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, hepatocellular carcinoma, and neuroendocrine tumor indications and one for doxorubicin in the treatment of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma).
We have sufficient raw material and component constituent parts of HEPZATO KIT to meet anticipated demand and we intend to manage supply chain risk through stockpiled inventory and contracting with multiple suppliers for critical components. As of July 31, 2024, eight facilities have treated at least one patient with the HEPZATO KIT.
In Europe, the hepatic delivery system is a stand-alone medical device having the same device components as HEPZATO, but without the melphalan hydrochloride and is approved for sale under the trade name CHEMOSAT Hepatic Delivery System for Melphalan, or CHEMOSAT, where it has been used at major medical centers to treat a wide range of cancers in the liver. On February 28, 2022, CHEMOSAT received Medical Device Regulation (MDR) certification under the European Medical Devices Regulation (EU)2017/745, which may be considered by jurisdictions when evaluating reimbursement. As of March 1, 2022, we have assumed direct responsibility for sales, marketing and distribution of CHEMOSAT in Europe.
Our clinical development program for HEPZATO was comprised of the FOCUS Clinical Trial for Patients with metastatic hepatic dominant Uveal Melanoma (the “FOCUS Trial”), a global registration clinical trial that investigated objective response rate in patients with mUM. The current focus of our clinical development program is to generate clinical data for CHEMOSAT and HEPZATO in patients with mUM, either as monotherapy or in combination with immunotherapy. On May 6, 2024, we announced the publication of results from our Phase 3 FOCUS Trial, including an Overall Response Rate (“ORR”) of 36.35, which included 7.7% of patients with Complete Response, as determined by an Independent Review Committee. An ORR of 36.3% in the FOCUS study was statistically significantly better than the pooled ORR estimate (a weighted mean of the observed ORR) of 5.5% in the historical control group. We expect that the publication will support increased clinical adoption of and reimbursement for CHEMOSAT in Europe, and support reimbursement in various jurisdictions, including the United States.
In addition to HEPZATO’s use to treat mUM, the Company believes that HEPZATO has the potential to treat other cancers in the liver, such as metastatic colorectal cancer, metastatic neuroendocrine tumors, metastatic breast cancer and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, and plans to begin one or more studies of HEPZATO KIT to treat such conditions in late 2024 or early 2025. We believe that those and similar disease states are areas of unmet medical needs that represent significant market opportunities.

Table of Contents
Preferred Stock
Our board of directors has the authority to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more series and to determine the rights and preferences of the shares of any such series without stockholder approval, of which Series E Preferred Stock, Series E-1 Preferred Stock, Series F-2 Preferred Stock, Series F-3 Preferred Stock and Series F-4 Preferred Stock (together, the “Preferred Stock”) is outstanding. Our board of directors may issue preferred stock in one or more series and has the authority to fix the designation and powers, rights and preferences and the qualifications, limitations, or restrictions with respect to each class or series of such class without further vote or action by the stockholders. The ability of our board of directors to issue preferred stock without stockholder approval could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change of control of us or the removal of existing management.
Each share of the Preferred Stock has a par value of $0.01 per share and a stated value equal to $1,000 (the “Stated Value”), and is convertible at any time at the option of the holder into the number of shares of Common Stock determined by dividing the Stated Value by the Conversion Price. The Conversion Price is $10.00 for Series E and Series E-1 Preferred Stock, $3.30 for Series F-2 Preferred Stock, $4.50 for Series F-3 Preferred Stock and $6.00 for Series F-4 Preferred Stock, subject to certain limitations and adjustments. Except for certain adjustments, the holders of the Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive dividends on such shares equal (on an as if converted basis) to and in the same form as dividends paid on shares of our Common Stock. Any such dividends that are not paid to the holders of Preferred Stock will increase the Stated Value. No other dividends will be paid on shares of Preferred Stock. The Preferred Stock will vote on an as converted basis on all matters submitted to the holders of Common Stock for approval, subject to certain limitations and exceptions. The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the then outstanding shares of Preferred Stock is required to increase the number of authorized shares of such preferred stock or to alter or change adversely the powers, preferences or rights given to such preferred stock, or to amend the Company’s organizational documents in any manner that adversely affects the rights of the holders of such preferred stock. Upon any liquidation of the Company, the holders of the Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive out of the assets of the Company an amount equal to the Stated Value plus any accrued and unpaid dividends thereon for each share of such preferred stock before any distribution or payment will be made to the holders of the Common Stock.
Outstanding Warrants
The following is a brief summary of material provisions of the Outstanding Warrants related to the shares of Common Stock offered and issuable upon the exercise of such Outstanding Warrants.
Series F Warrants
Duration and Exercise
The Series F Warrants are exercisable from and after the date of their issuance and expire on the fifth anniversary of such date, at an exercise price of $10.00 per share. The Series F Warrants are governed by the terms of a global warrant held in book-entry form. The holder of a Series F Warrant will not be deemed a holder of our underlying Common Stock until the Series F Warrant is exercised. No fractional shares of Common Stock will be issued in connection with the exercise of a Series F Warrant. Instead, for any such fractional share that would have otherwise been issued upon exercise of Series F Warrants, the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued will be rounded to the nearest whole number.
Exercisability
The Series F Warrants are exercisable, at the option of each holder, in whole or in part, by delivering to us a duly executed exercise notice accompanied by payment in full for the number of shares of our Common Stock purchased upon such exercise (except in the case of a cashless exercise as discussed below). A holder (together with
6
Table of Contents
its affiliates) may not exercise any portion of the Series F Warrant to the extent that the holder would own more than 4.99% of the outstanding Common Stock immediately after exercise, except that upon at least 61 days’ prior notice from the holder to us, the holder may increase the amount of beneficial ownership of outstanding stock after exercising the holder’s Series F Warrants up to 9.99% of the number of shares of our Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the Series F Warrants and Delaware law. Holders of Series F Warrants may also elect prior to the issuance of the Series F Warrants to have the initial exercise limitation set at 9.99% of our outstanding Common Stock.
Cashless Exercise
If, at the time a holder exercises its Series F Warrants, a registration statement registering the issuance of the shares of Common Stock underlying the Series F Warrants under the Securities Act is not then effective or available for the issuance of such shares, then in lieu of making the cash payment otherwise contemplated to be made to us upon such exercise in payment of the aggregate exercise price, the holder may elect instead to receive upon such exercise (either in whole or in part) the net number of shares of Common Stock determined according to a formula set forth in the Series F Warrants.
Transferability
Subject to applicable laws, a Series F Warrant may be transferred at the option of the holder upon surrender of the Series F Warrant to us together with the appropriate instruments of transfer.
Fractional Shares
No fractional shares of Common Stock will be issued upon the exercise of the Series F Warrants. Rather, the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued will be rounded to the nearest whole number.
Trading Market
There is no established public trading market for the Series F Warrants, and we do not expect a market to develop. In addition, we have not in the past and do not intend in the future to apply to list the Series F Warrants on any national securities exchange or other nationally recognized trading system. Without an active trading market, the liquidity of the Series F Warrants will be limited.
Right as a Stockholder
Except as otherwise provided in the Series F Warrants or by virtue of such holder’s ownership of shares of our Common Stock, the holders of the Series F Warrants do not have the rights or privileges of holders of our Common Stock with respect to the shares of Common Stock underlying the Series F Warrants, including any voting rights, until they exercise their Series F Warrants. The Series F Warrants will provide that holders have the right to participate in distributions or dividends paid on our Common Stock.
Fundamental Transaction
In the event of a fundamental transaction, as described in the Series F Warrants and generally including any reorganization, recapitalization or reclassification of our Common Stock, the sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of our properties or assets, our consolidation or merger with or into another person, the acquisition of more than 50% of our outstanding Common Stock, or any person or group becoming the beneficial owner of 50% of the voting power represented by our outstanding Common Stock, the holders of the Series F Warrants will be entitled to receive upon exercise of the Series F Warrants the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property that the holders would have received had they exercised the Series F Warrants immediately prior to such fundamental transaction. Additionally, as more fully described in the Series F Warrants, in the event of certain fundamental transactions, the holders of the Series F Warrants will be entitled to receive consideration in an amount equal to the Black Scholes value of the Series F Warrants determined according to a formula set forth in the Series F Warrants.

Table of Contents
Warrant Agent
The Series F Warrants have been issued pursuant to the terms of a warrant agency agreement between us and Equiniti, LLC, as warrant agent. The warrant agent may resign upon 30 days’ written notice to us, our transfer agent and the holders of any warrant certificates. We have the right to remove the warrant agent upon 30 days’ prior written notice to the warrant agent, our transfer agent and the holders of any warrant certificates. If the warrant agent resigns or is removed, we will appoint a successor warrant agent. If we do not do so within 30 days, then any holder of a warrant certificate may petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint a successor warrant agent and we will be deemed to be the warrant agent pending such appointment. In the warrant agency agreement, we have agreed to indemnify the warrant agent against certain liabilities.
Amendments
The warrant agency agreement may be amended by the warrant agent and us without the approval of the holders of Series F Warrants to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any defective or inconsistent provisions or to make such other provisions as we and the warrant agent deem necessary or desirable and which do not adversely affect the interest of the holders. In addition, with the consent of the holders of a majority of the outstanding Series F Warrants, we and the warrant agent may modify the warrant agency agreement and the Series F Warrants for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the warrant agency agreement or modifying in any manner the rights of the holders of the Series F Warrants; provided, however, that no modification of the terms (including but not limited to the adjustments provisions) upon which the Series F Warrants are exercisable or reducing the percentage required for consent to modification of the warrant agency agreement may be made without the consent of each holder of the then-outstanding Series F Warrants.
The description of the warrant agency agreement contained herein is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by the provisions of the warrant agency agreement, the form of which is filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. Prospective investors should carefully review the terms and provisions of the warrant agency agreement for a complete description of the terms and conditions thereof.
Pre-funded Warrants
Duration and Exercise
Each Pre-funded Warrant has an initial exercise price per share equal to $0.01. The Pre-funded Warrants are immediately exercisable and will not expire prior to exercise in full. The exercise price and number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise is subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of stock dividends, stock splits, reorganizations or similar events affecting our Common Stock. No fractional shares of Common Stock will be issued in connection with the exercise of a Pre-funded Warrant. Instead, for any such fractional share that would have otherwise been issued upon exercise of Pre-funded Warrant, the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued will be rounded to the nearest whole number.
Exercisability
The Pre-funded Warrants are exercisable, at the option of each holder, in whole or in part, by delivering to us a duly executed exercise notice accompanied by payment in full for the number of shares of our Common Stock purchased upon such exercise (except in the case of a cashless exercise as discussed below). If there is no effective registration statement registering the issuance of such Common Stock underlying the Pre-funded Warrants, the holder may exercise such Pre-funded Warrants through a cashless exercise, in which case the holder would receive upon such exercise the net number of shares of Common Stock determined according to the formula set forth in the Pre-funded Warrants.

Transferability
Subject to applicable laws and any restrictions on transfer set forth in the Pre-funded Warrants, an outstanding Pre-funded Warrant may be transferred at the option of the holder upon surrender of the Pre-funded Warrants to us together with the appropriate instruments of transfer.
Trading Market
We have not in the past and do not intend in the future to apply to list the Pre-funded Warrants on any national securities exchange or other nationally recognized trading systems.
Right as a Stockholder
Except as otherwise provided in the Pre-funded Warrants or by virtue of such holder’s ownership of shares of our Common Stock, the holders of the Pre-funded Warrants do not have the rights or privileges of holders of our Common Stock with respect to the shares of Common Stock underlying the Pre-funded Warrants, including any voting rights, until they exercise their Pre-funded Warrants. The Pre-funded Warrants provide that holders have the right to participate in distributions or dividends paid on our Common Stock.

The SEC maintains a website that contains reports, proxy and information statements and other information about issuers, such as us, who file electronically with the SEC. The address of that website is www.sec.gov. You may access these materials free of charge as soon as reasonably practicable after they are electronically filed with or furnished to the SEC.
Our website address is http://www.delcath.com. The information on our website, however, is not, and should not be deemed to be, a part of, or incorporated by reference in, this prospectus.
This prospectus and any prospectus supplement are part of a registration statement that we filed with the SEC and do not contain all of the information in the registration statement. The full registration statement may be obtained from the SEC or us, as provided above. Statements in this prospectus or any prospectus supplement about these documents are summaries and each statement is qualified in all respects by reference to the document to which it refers. You should refer to the actual documents for a more complete description of the relevant matters. You may inspect a copy of the registration statement through the SEC’s website, as provided above.
