PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT

Up to $10,000,000
American Depositary Shares representing Ordinary Shares
We have entered into an amendment, dated September 4, 2024, to the equity distribution agreement, or as amended, the Distribution Agreement, with Oppenheimer & Co. Inc., or Oppenheimer, dated April 22, 2022, relating to the sale of American Depositary Shares, or the ADSs, offered by this prospectus supplement. Each ADS represents ten fully paid ordinary shares, no par value per ordinary share. In accordance with the terms of the Distribution Agreement, we may offer and sell ADSs having an aggregate offering price of up to $50,000,000 from time to time through Oppenheimer, pursuant to this prospectus supplement. We previously filed a prospectus supplement, dated April 22, 2022, or the 2022 Prospectus Supplement, relating to the offer and sale of up to an aggregate amount of $35,000,000 ADSs. We issued and sold 9,316,006 ADSs with an aggregate sales price of approximately $11.74 million, resulting in net proceeds to us of approximately $11.38 million, under the 2022 Prospectus Supplement.
ADSs representing our ordinary shares are listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “KZIA.” On August 30, 2024, the closing sale price of the ADSs on the Nasdaq Capital Market was $0.4233 per ADS.
Sales of the ADSs, if any, under this prospectus supplement and the accompanying base prospectus may be made in sales deemed to be an “at the market offering” as defined in Rule 415(a)(4) promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, from time to time, including sales made directly on or through Nasdaq or any other existing trading market for the ADSs. Oppenheimer is not required to sell any specific number or dollar amount of securities, but will use its commercially reasonable efforts consistent with its normal trading and sales practices, on mutually agreed terms between Oppenheimer and us. There is no arrangement for funds to be received in any escrow, trust or similar arrangement.
Oppenheimer will be entitled to compensation at a commission rate of up to 3.0% of the gross proceeds from the sales of ADS sold under the Distribution Agreement. See “Plan of Distribution” beginning on page S-16 of this prospectus supplement for additional information regarding the compensation to be paid to Oppenheimer.
In connection with the sale of the ADSs on our behalf, Oppenheimer will be deemed to be an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act and the compensation of Oppenheimer will be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts. We have also agreed to provide indemnification and contribution to Oppenheimer with respect to certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act.
We are a “foreign private issuer”, as defined under the federal securities laws, and, as such, we will be subject to reduced public company reporting requirements for this prospectus supplement and future filings. See “Prospectus Summary—Implications of Being a Foreign Private Issuer.”
On September 4, 2024, the aggregate market value worldwide of our outstanding voting and non-voting common equity held by non-affiliates was approximately US$55.80 million, based on 450,011,990 ordinary shares outstanding (which would be represented by 45,001,199 ADSs assuming all holders held ADSs) held by non-affiliates as of September 3, 2024, and a per ADS price of US$1.24 based on the closing sale price of the ADSs on The Nasdaq Capital Market on July 11, 2024. As of the date hereof, we have sold or offered 9,980,784 ADSs for a total of US$5,411,879.60 pursuant to General Instruction I.B.5 of Form F-3 during the prior 12 calendar month period that ends on and includes the date hereof. Pursuant to General Instruction I.B.5 of Form F-3, in no event will we sell securities registered on this registration statement of which any prospectus supplement forms a part in a public primary offering with a value exceeding one-third of our outstanding voting and non-voting common equity held by non-affiliates (the “public float”) in any 12-month period so long as our public float remains below US$75.0 million.
Investing in the ADSs involves a high degree of risk. You should review carefully the risks and uncertainties described in the section titled “Risk Factors” on page S-6 of this prospectus supplement, as well as in the documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, concerning factors you should consider before buying the ADSs.
