Because of the commercially sensitive nature of information contained herein, this submission
is accompanied by the Company’s request for confidential treatment for selected portions of this letter. The Company has filed a separate letter with the Office of Freedom of Information and Privacy Act Operations in connection with the
confidential treatment request, pursuant to Rule 83 of the Commission’s Rules on Information and Requests, 17 C.F.R. § 200.83. For the Staff’s reference, we have enclosed a copy of the Company’s letter to the Office of Freedom of

For the convenience of the Staff, we have recited the prior comment from the Staff in italicized type and have followed the comment with the

Once you have an estimated offering price or range, please explain to us how you determined the
fair value of the common stock underlying your equity issuances and the reasons for any differences between the most recent valuations of your common stock leading up to the IPO and the estimated offering price. This information will help facilitate
our review of your accounting for equity issuances including stock compensation and beneficial conversion features.
Price Range
To assist the Staff in its
evaluation of stock-based compensation disclosures and certain other matters, the Company advises the Staff that the Company currently anticipates an approximate pre-stock split price range of $[*] to $[*] per
share (the “Price Range”) for an initial public offering (the “IPO”) of the Company’s common stock, with a midpoint of the anticipated Price Range of approximately $[*] per share (the “Midpoint
Price”). The Company anticipates implementing a reverse stock split in connection with the IPO and will present post-stock split share numbers and per-share price information in the amendment of the
Registration Statement that includes the price range. This response letter presents all share numbers and per-share price information on the pre-stock split basis.
The Price Range has been determined based on a number of factors, including the progress of the Company’s preclinical studies and
clinical trials, other developments in the Company’s business, input received from the Company’s “testing the waters meetings,” current market conditions, including as a result of the disruptions and volatility in the market due
to the COVID-19 pandemic, and input received from Jefferies LLC, Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC, Piper Sandler & Co. and Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. (the “Underwriters”),
including discussions that took place on June 30, 2020 among representatives of the Company and representatives of the Underwriters.

The Price Range does not consider any discount for the current lack of liquidity for the
Company’s common stock and assumes a successful IPO with no weighting attributed to any other outcome for the Company’s business, such as remaining a privately held company or being sold in an acquisition transaction. As is typical for
IPOs, the Price Range was not derived using a formal determination of fair value, but was determined as a result of discussions among representatives of the Company and the Underwriters. During these discussions, the parties considered quantitative
factors, as well as non-quantitative factors, such as the valuations of the Company in its Series C convertible preferred stock financing; the valuations of recently completed public offerings and evaluating
those issuers’ respective stages of development as compared to the Company; current market conditions, including the volatility, disruptions and uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact
on the capital markets; recent strategic and collaboration transactions in the life sciences/biotechnology industry, including for oncology therapeutic companies such as those also targeting CD47; and the current valuations of public companies at a
similar stage of clinical development as the Company, taking into account the number of programs of those companies as compared to the Company. Prior to June 30, 2020, the Underwriters had not provided the Company with a specific estimated
price range.
The actual bona fide price range to be included in the Registration Statement has not yet been
determined and remains subject to adjustment based on further discussions between the Company and the Underwriters, developments in the Company’s business, market conditions and other factors that are outside of the Company’s control.
However, the Company believes the actual bona fide price range will be within the Price Range. In addition, the actual bona fide price range to be included in the Registration Statement will be reflected
in an amendment to the Registration Statement that will be filed before the commencement of the road show and will comply with the Staff’s interpretation regarding the parameters of a bona fide price range.
Equity Grants and Common Stock Valuation
As stated in the Registration Statement, the Company has granted stock-based awards, consisting of stock options, to its employees, directors
and other service providers. References in this letter to the “Company” in periods prior to April 1, 2020 are to ALX Oncology Limited, an Irish private company limited by shares. On April 1, 2020, the Company effected a corporate
reorganization (the “Reorganization”) whereby ALX Oncology Holdings Inc., a newly incorporated Delaware corporation, was formed and became the parent entity of ALX Oncology Limited, and the shareholders, warrantholders and
optionholders of ALX Oncology Limited became stockholders, warrantholders and optionholders holding the same number of shares, warrants and/or options in ALX Oncology Holdings Inc. as they did in ALX Oncology Limited immediately prior to the
reorganization. These shares, warrants and options of ALX Oncology Holdings Inc. were issued at the same respective fair market values at which the corresponding shares, warrants and options of ALX Oncology Limited were originally issued.
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation by measuring and recognizing compensation expense for all stock-based payments made to
employees, directors and non-employees based on estimated grant-date fair values and recognizes compensation expense for those awards over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period of
the respective award. Generally, the Company issues stock options with only service-based vesting conditions and records the expense for these awards using the straight-line method.

The Registration Statement describes the Company’s use of the Black-Scholes
option-pricing model (“Black-Scholes”) for the purpose of calculating the estimated grant date fair value of the stock options. The Company’s board of directors (the “Board”), with input from management,
determined the estimated fair value per share of the Company’s common stock for financial reporting purposes to be as follows:

These estimated fair values per share of common stock were determined after considering valuation reports from
an independent third-party valuation firm as well as other objective and subjective factors as appropriate, including the progress of the Company’s preclinical studies and clinical trials; the Company’s stage of development and programs;
the Company’s cash burn and cash balances; the value of public companies with similar profiles to the Company; the issuance of preferred stock and the rights, preferences and privileges of preferred stock as compared to common stock; the need
for and market related to additional private financings, such as preferred stock financings; the likelihood of achieving a liquidity event, including an IPO; and the other factors described below. A discussion of each valuation and equity grant
since January 1, 2019, along with a comparison of the estimated fair value of the Company’s common stock to the Midpoint Price is set forth below.

April 15, 2019 Valuation
In preparing the April 15, 2019 valuation (reflected in the report issued on September 27, 2019), the Company determined its
enterprise value using the option pricing method (“OPM”) “back solve” method. The resulting estimated fair value of the Company’s common stock was $0.29 per share on a
non-marketable, minority basis.
In an OPM framework, the “back-solve” method determines
the fair value of the Company’s preferred stock and common stock. The back-solve method derives the implied equity value of the Company from a transaction involving the Company’s preferred securities on an arm’s length basis. The
Company used assumptions including the expected time to liquidity, risk-free rate and volatility and then solving for the value of such equity such that the value for the most recent financing equals the amount paid. The method was selected as it
was concluded that the Company’s Series B convertible preferred stock financing, which was in the process of closing as of the valuation date, was a reasonable indication of value as it was considered to be an arm’s length transaction
negotiated by sophisticated investors and the financing terms were fairly negotiated and reasonably reflected the expected economics for the Company going forward. In May 2019, the Company issued and sold an aggregate of 6,690,729 shares of Series B
convertible preferred stock at a purchase price of $1.4432 per share for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $9.6 million.
The
Series B convertible preferred stock per share price of $1.4432 was then “back solved” to the capitalization of the Company to arrive at the per share fair market value of the Company’s common stock using the Black-Scholes method as
described in the Registration Statement. For the April 15, 2019 valuation, the Company used:
•
an implied equity value of approximately $[*];

•
a probability-weighted time to exit of 1.5 years after accounting for the Company’s approximation of the
time it would take the Company to reach an IPO or merger and acquisition (“M&A”) event;
•
a risk-free interest rate of 2.4% based on the yield of 2.0-year U.S.
Treasury bonds as of April 15, 2019, a maturity which closely approximated the forecasted liquidity horizon of the Company; and
•
an estimate for expected volatility of 80.0% based on an analysis of the historical volatility of guideline
public companies and factors specific to the Company.
A discount for lack of marketability (“DLOM”) of
40.0% was then applied to account for the lack of an active trading market in the Company’s securities.
Analysis of May 29,
2019 and September 12, 2019 Grants
At May 29, 2019 and September 12, 2019, the Board determined that the estimated fair
value of the Company’s common stock was $0.29 per share in consideration of the valuation analysis as of April 15, 2019 and other objective and subjective factors as appropriate, including: the timing of the initiation and the results of
the Company’s ongoing and planned future clinical trials; uncertainty as to when the Company would initiate or complete an IPO or M&A event, if at all; and the overall health of the economy and life sciences/biotechnology sectors in
general, but offset by considerations related to increased volatility and recent performance of public healthcare stocks relative to the broader market (due to, among other things, recent U.S. political discourse surrounding Medicare,
