BiomX Inc. Announces NYSE American Acceptance of Plan to Regain Listing Compliance
July 29 2024 - 6:00AM
BiomX Inc. (NYSE American: PHGE) (“BiomX” or the “Company”), a
clinical-stage company advancing novel natural and engineered phage
therapies that target specific pathogenic bacteria, today announced
that it received a notification (the “Acceptance Letter”) from the
NYSE American LLC (the “NYSE American”), dated July 23, 2024,
stating that the NYSE American has accepted the Company’s
previously submitted plan to regain compliance with the NYSE
American’s listing standards (the “Plan”). In the Acceptance
Letter, the NYSE American confirmed that it has granted the Company
until November 23, 2025 (the “Plan Period”) to regain compliance
with the continued listing standards. As previously disclosed, on
May 23, 2024, BiomX received a deficiency letter from the NYSE
American indicating that the Company was not in compliance with the
NYSE American continued listing standards set forth in Sections
1003(a)(i), (ii) and (iii) of the NYSE American Company Guide (the
“Company Guide”).
“We are pleased the NYSE American has accepted our Plan to
regain compliance,” commented Jonathan Solomon, Chief Executive
Officer of BiomX. “We intend to take all reasonable measures
available to us and have already begun implementing our Plan,
including by obtaining stockholders’ approval for conversion of the
Company’s outstanding Series X Convertible Preferred Stock to
Common Stock, as announced earlier this month.”
During the Plan Period, the Company will be subject to periodic
review by the NYSE American on its progress with the goals and
initiatives outlined in the Plan. If the Company does not regain
compliance with the NYSE American listing standards by November 23,
2025, or if the Company does not make sufficient progress
consistent with the Plan during the Plan Period, then NYSE American
may initiate delisting proceedings.
The Acceptance Letter has no immediate impact on
the listing of the Company’s shares of common stock, par value
$0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), which will continue to be
listed and traded on the NYSE American during the Plan Period,
subject to the Company’s compliance with the other listing
requirements of the NYSE American. The Common Stock will continue
to trade under the symbol “PHGE”. The Acceptance Letter does not
affect the Company’s ongoing business operations or its reporting
requirements with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

with NYSE American Continued Listing Standards, it is using
forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are neither
