CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

 

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, or the Quarterly Report, includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, and other securities laws. The statements contained herein that are not purely historical, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include statements about our expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, intentions, assumptions and other statements that are not historical facts. Words or phrases such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “ongoing,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “will” or similar words or phrases, or the negatives of those words or phrases, may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not necessarily mean that a statement is not forward-looking. For example, we are making forward-looking statements when we discuss our business strategy and plans, our clinical and pre-clinical development program, including timing, milestones and the design thereof, including acceptance of regulatory agencies of such design, the potential opportunities for and benefits of the BacteriOphage Lead to Treatment, or BOLT, platform, the potential of our product candidates and the sufficiency of financial resources and financial needs and ability to continue as a going concern. However, you should understand that these statements are not guarantees of performance or results, and there are a number of risks, uncertainties and other important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements, including, among others:

 

  ● the ability to generate revenues, and raise sufficient financing to meet working capital requirements;

 

  ● the integration of the operations of Adaptive Phage Therapeutics LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, or APT, into the Company;

 

  ● the unpredictable timing and cost associated with our approach to developing product candidates using phage technology;

 

  ● political, economic and military instability in the State of Israel, and in particular, the war in Gaza, additional potential conflicts with other middle eastern countries and the continuation of the proposed judicial and other legislation reform by the Israeli government;

 

  ● political and economic instability, including, without limitation, due to natural disasters or other catastrophic events, such as the Russian invasion of Ukraine and world sanctions on Russia, Belarus, and related parties, terrorist attacks, hurricanes, fire, floods, pollution and earthquakes;

 

  ● obtaining U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, acceptance of any non-U.S. clinical trials of product candidates;

 

  ● our ability to enroll patients in clinical trials and achieve anticipated development milestones when expected;

 

  ● the ability to pursue and effectively develop new product opportunities and acquisitions and to obtain value from such product opportunities and acquisitions;

 

  ● penalties and market withdrawal associated with any unanticipated problems with product candidates and failure to comply with labeling and other restrictions;

 

  ● general economic conditions, our current low stock price and other factors on our operations, the continuity of our business, including our preclinical and clinical trials, and our ability to raise additional capital; 
     
  ● expenses associated with compliance with ongoing regulatory obligations and successful continuing regulatory review;

 

  ● market acceptance of our product candidates and ability to identify or discover additional product candidates;

 

ii

 

 

  ● our ability to obtain high titers for specific phage cocktails necessary for preclinical and clinical testing;

 

  ● the availability of specialty raw materials and global supply chain challenges;

 

  ● the ability of our product candidates to demonstrate requisite, safety and efficacy for drug products, or safety, purity and potency for biologics without causing adverse effects;

 

  ● the success of expected future advanced clinical trials of our product candidates;

 

  ● our ability to obtain required regulatory approvals;

 

  ● our ability to maintain compliance with the continued listing standards of the NYSE American;

 

  ● delays in developing manufacturing processes for our product candidates;

 

  ● competition from similar technologies, products that are more effective, safer or more affordable than our product candidates or products that obtain marketing approval before our product candidates;

 

  ● the impact of unfavorable pricing regulations, third-party reimbursement practices or healthcare reform initiatives on our ability to sell product candidates or therapies profitably;

 

  ● protection of our intellectual property rights and compliance with the terms and conditions of current and future licenses with third parties;

 

  ● infringement on the intellectual property rights of third parties and claims for remuneration or royalties for assigned service invention rights;

 

  ● our ability to acquire, in-license or use proprietary rights held by third parties necessary to our product candidates or future development candidates;

 

  ● ethical, legal and social concerns about synthetic biology and genetic engineering that may adversely affect market acceptance of our product candidates;

 

  ● reliance on third-party collaborators;

 

  ● our ability to attract and retain key employees or to enforce the terms of noncompetition agreements with employees;

  

  ● the failure to comply with applicable laws and regulations other than drug manufacturing compliance; and

 

  ● potential security breaches, including cybersecurity incidents.

 

For a detailed discussion of these and other risks, uncertainties and factors, see Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors” of our 2023 Annual Report. All forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report speak only as of the date hereof. Except as required by law, we are under no duty to (and expressly disclaim any such obligation to) update or revise any of the forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, after the date of this Quarterly Report. Comparisons of results between current and prior periods are not intended to express any future trends, or indications of future performance, and should be viewed only as historical data.

Certain warrants are currently quoted on OTC Pink under the symbol “PHGEW”.

  

BiomX is developing both natural and engineered phage cocktails designed to target and destroy harmful bacteria in chronic diseases, focusing its efforts, at this point, on cystic fibrosis and on diabetic foot osteomyelitis. BiomX discovers and validates proprietary bacterial targets and customizes phage compositions against these targets. The Company’s headquarters are located in Ness Ziona, Israel.

 

On March 6, 2024, the Company entered into an agreement and plan of merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with APT and certain other parties, as a result of which APT became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Acquisition”), as further described below. Additionally, on March 15, 2024, concurrently with the consummation of the Acquisition, the Company consummated a private placement (the “March 2024 PIPE”) with certain investors pursuant to which such investors purchased an aggregate of 216,417 shares of the Company’s Series X non-voting convertible preferred share, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares”), with each share of Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares being convertible into 1,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, and warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”) to purchase up to an aggregate of 108,208,500 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $50,000. See Note 1D for further information regarding the Acquisition.

 

  B. Israel-Hamas war

 

On October 7, 2023, an unprecedented attack was launched against Israel by terrorists from the Hamas terrorist organization that infiltrated Israel’s southern border from the Gaza Strip and in other areas within the state of Israel attacking civilians and military targets while simultaneously launching extensive rocket attacks on the Israeli population. These attacks resulted in extensive deaths, injuries and kidnapping of civilians and soldiers. In response, the Security Cabinet of the State of Israel declared war against Hamas and a military campaign against these terrorist organizations commenced in parallel to their continued rocket and terror attacks. In addition, Hezbollah, an Islamist terrorist group that controls large portions of southern Lebanon, has attacked military and civilian targets in Northern Israel, to which Israel has responded.

 

To date, the State of Israel continues to be at war with Hamas and in an armed conflict with Hezbollah.

 

BiomX headquarters and principal offices and most of its operations are located in the State of Israel. In addition, most of the key employees and officers are residents of Israel. Accordingly, political, economic and military conditions in Israel and the surrounding region may directly affect its business.

 

While a few employees of the Company were called to reserve duty in the Israel Defense Forces, the ongoing war with Hamas has not, since its inception, materially impacted BiomX’s business or operations. Furthermore, BiomX does not expect any delays to its programs as a result of the situation. However, at this time, it is not possible to predict the intensity or duration of Israel’s war against Hamas, nor predict how this war will ultimately affect BiomX business and operations or Israel’s economy in general.

  C. Going concern

 

As of June 30, 2024, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $175,826 and has incurred significant losses and negative cash flows from operations. These are expected to continue in the foreseeable future. The Company plans to continue to fund its ongoing operations, as well as other development activities relating to additional product candidates, through issuances of debt and/or equity securities, loans, and government grants. Management believes current funds will be sufficient to fund its operations into the fourth quarter of 2025. However, increased research and development, clinical, or operating expenses may require additional funding or expense postponement. The Company’s ability to raise capital is subject to market conditions and other aspects, which may affect the terms and availability of such funding. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis and do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of such circumstances.

 

  D. Merger Agreement

 

On March 6, 2024, the Company, entered into the Merger Agreement with BTX Merger Sub I, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“First Merger Sub”), BTX Merger Sub II, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Second Merger Sub”), and APT. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, First Merger Sub merged with and into APT, with APT being the surviving corporation and becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “First Merger”). Immediately following the First Merger, APT merged with and into Second Merger Sub, pursuant to which Second Merger Sub was the surviving entity. APT was a U.S.-based privately held, clinical-stage biotechnology company pioneering the development of phage-based therapies to combat bacterial infection. As a result of the Acquisition, the Company is expected to have a pipeline that includes two Phase 2 assets each aimed at treating serious infections with unmet medical needs.

 

On March 15, 2024, the effective date of the Acquisition (the “Closing Date”), APT’s former stockholders were issued an aggregate of 9,164,968 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, 40,470 Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares and Warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 2,166,497 shares of the Company Common Stock (“Merger Warrants”). Each share of Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares is convertible into an aggregate of 1,000 shares of Common Stock. The Merger Warrants will be exercisable at any time after the date of the receipt of BiomX stockholder approval at an exercise price of $5.00 per share and will expire on January 28, 2027. In the event the Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares are not converted by the earlier to occur of (i) the time that meeting of BiomX stockholders is ultimately concluded or (ii) five months after the initial issuance of the Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares, the Company may be required to pay to each holder of the Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares an amount in cash equal to the fair value of the Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares. See Note 13a for further information regarding the stockholders’ approval of conversion of the Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares into shares of Common Stock and the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of the Merger Warrants subsequent to the financial statements date.

 

The Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares are entitled to receive dividends on shares of the Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares equal to, on an as-if-converted-to Common-Stock basis, and in the same form as, dividends actually paid on shares of the Common Stock. Except as otherwise required by law or with respect to the Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares protective provisions set forth in the Company’s Certificate of Designations, the Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares does not have voting rights.

 

At the Closing Date, the Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares were classified as temporary equity in accordance with the provisions of ASC 480-10-S99, as they included clauses that could constitute redemption clauses that were subject to the Company’s stockholder approval and outside of the Company’s control. On June 17, 2024, the Company filed a definitive Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A with respect to a meeting of stockholders to approve, among other things, the conversion of the Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares into shares of Common Stock. In addition, the majority of the Company’s stockholders signed a binding support agreement that contained their commitment to vote in favor or deliver a written consent regarding any stockholders’ matter in the stockholders’ meeting which took place on July 9, 2024. These circumstances led the Company to determine that the Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares meet the definition of permanent equity as the Company is able to control the redemption. Therefore, as of June 30, 2024, the Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares were reclassified as equity. See Note 13a for further information regarding the Company’s stockholders meeting.

NOTE 1 – GENERAL (Cont.)

 

The Merger Warrants are classified as equity, as they are indexed to the Company’s own shares and meet the classification requirements for stockholders’ equity classification under ASC 815-40.

 

Concurrently with the consummation of the Acquisition, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with certain investors, for aggregate gross proceeds of $50,000. See Note 10A for further information.

 

Immediately following the Acquisition, and without taking into account the PIPE Preferred Shares and the Private Placement Warrants as defined and described in Note 10A, the Company’s stockholders prior to the Acquisition owned approximately 55% of the Company and APT’s stockholders prior to the Acquisition owned approximately 45% of the Company on a diluted basis.

 

The Acquisition was accounted for in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 805, “Business Combinations,” using the acquisition method of accounting. The Company was identified as the accounting acquirer, based on the evaluation of the following facts and circumstances:

 

●Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the post- Acquisition board of directors of the Company consisted of seven directors, out of which the Company designated four board seats, with the Company’s chair of the board prior to the Acquisition continuing in his position, i.e. the majority of the post-closing board was designated by the Company.

 

●The Chief Executive Officer and the majority of management roles are held by individuals who were affiliated with the Company prior to the Acquisition.

 

The Acquisition-related transaction costs are accounted for as expenses in the period in which the costs are incurred. The Company incurred transaction costs of $874 and $133 during the six and three months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, which were included in general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

NOTE 1 – GENERAL (Cont.)

 

The fair value of shares of Common Stock issued by the Company was determined using the Company’s closing trading price on the Closing Date adjusted by a discount for lack of marketability (“DLOM”) of 9.4% as a registration statement was filed within 45 days. The fair value of Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares was determined using the Company’s closing trading price on the Closing Date adjusted by a DLOM of 14.9% as the conversion of the Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares to shares of Common Stock was subject to the stockholder approval, which was obtained on July 9, 2024. The Company determined the fair value of the Merger Warrants using the Black-Scholes model as of the Closing Date. The main assumptions used are as follows:

 

Underlying value of Common Stock ($)   0.37 
Exercise price ($)   5.0 
Expected volatility (%)   117.7 
Expected terms (years)   2.87 
Risk-free interest rate (%)   4.5 

 

The fair value estimate for all identifiable assets and liabilities assumed is preliminary and is based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset, based on the most advantageous market for the asset (i.e., its highest and best use). This preliminary fair value estimate could include assets that are not intended to be used, may be sold, or are intended to be used in a manner other than their best use. Such estimates are subject to change during the measurement period, which is not expected to exceed one year. Any adjustments identified during the measurement period will be recognized in the period in which the adjustments are determined.

 

The Company recognized intangible assets related to the Acquisition, which consist of IPR&D valued at $15,287 using the Multi-Period Excess Earnings Method valuation method and of goodwill valued at $501. The goodwill is primarily attributed to the expected synergies from combining the operations of APT with the Company’s operations and to the assembled workforce of APT. The IPR&D is considered indefinite lived until the completion or abandonment of the associated research and development efforts. Upon successful completion of the project, IPR&D assets are reclassified to developed technology and amortized over their estimated useful lives.

 

These intangible assets are classified as Level 3 measurements within the fair value hierarchy.

 

The actual APT net loss included in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2024, is as follows:

NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

A.Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for condensed financial information. They do not include all the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair statement have been included (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments except as otherwise discussed).

 

The financial information contained in this report should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, that the Company filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on April 4, 2024. The year-end balance sheet data was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2023.

 

B.Principles of Consolidation

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.

 

C.Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the amounts of expenses during the reported years. The most significant estimates in the Company’s financial statements relate to accruals for research and development expenses, valuation of stock-based compensation awards, purchase price allocation related to the Acquisition and the Private Placement Warrants fair value revaluation. These estimates and assumptions are based on current facts, future expectations, and various other factors believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the recording of expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ materially and adversely from these estimates.

 

The full extent to which the Israel-Hamas war may directly or indirectly impact the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition will depend on future developments that are uncertain, as well as the economic impact on local, regional, national and international markets.

 

D.Business Combination

 

The Company allocates the fair value of consideration transferred in a business combination to the assets acquired, liabilities assumed based on their fair values at the acquisition date. Acquisition-related expenses are recognized separately from the business combination and are expensed as incurred. The excess of the fair value of the consideration transferred over the fair value of the assets acquired, liabilities assumed in the acquired business is recorded as goodwill. The fair value of the consideration transferred included equity securities. The allocation of the consideration transferred in certain cases may be subject to revision based on the final determination of fair values during the measurement period, which may be up to one year from the acquisition date. The cumulative impact of revisions during the measurement period is recognized in the reporting period in which the revisions are identified. The Company includes the results of operations of the businesses that it has acquired in its consolidated results prospectively from the respective dates of Acquisition.

NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.)

 

E.Financial instruments

 

When the Company issues freestanding instruments, it first analyzes the provisions of ASC 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities From Equity” (“ASC 480”) in order to determine whether the instrument should be classified as a liability, with subsequent changes in fair value recognized in the consolidated statements of operations in each period. If the instrument is not within the scope of ASC 480, the Company further analyzes the provisions of ASC 815-10 in order to determine whether the instrument is considered indexed to the entity’s own stock and qualifies for classification within equity.

 

When the Company issues preferred shares, it first considers the provisions of ASC 480, in order to determine whether the preferred shares should be classified as a liability. If the instrument is not within the scope of ASC 480, the Company further analyzes the instrument’s characteristics in order to determine whether it should be classified within temporary equity (mezzanine) or within permanent equity in accordance with the provisions of ASC 480-10-S99. The Company reassesses the classification of a contract over its own equity under the guidance above at each balance sheet date. If classification changes as a result of events during the reporting period, the Company reclassifies the contract as of the date of the event that caused the reclassification. See Note 1D regarding the reclassification of the Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares.

 

When the Company issues warrants, it first considers the provisions of ASC 815-40, “Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity” (“ASC 815-40”) in order to determine whether the warrants should be classified as equity. Equity classification is permitted when warrants are indexed to the Company’s own shares and meet the classification requirements for stockholders’ equity classification under ASC 815-40. If the warrants are not within the scope of ASC 815-40, the Company accounts for the warrants in accordance with the guidance contained in Accounting Standards Codification 815 (“ASC 815”), “Derivatives and Hedging”, under which the warrants do not meet the criteria for equity treatment and must be recorded as derivative liabilities. Accordingly, the Company classifies the Private Placement Warrants as liabilities at their fair value and adjusts the warrants to fair value at each reporting period. This liability is subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date until the warrants are exercised or expire, and any change in fair value is recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. See Note 10A for further information regarding the Private Placement Warrants.

 

F.Basic and diluted loss (earnings) per share

 

Basic loss (earnings) per share is computed by dividing net loss (income) by the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding during the period, fully vested warrants with no exercise price for the Company’s Common Stock and fully vested Pre-Funded Warrants for the Company’s Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.001 per share, as the Company considers these shares to be exercised for little to no additional consideration. The calculation excludes shares of Common Stock purchased by the Company and held as treasury shares. Diluted loss (income) per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding during the period, plus the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been outstanding if all potentially dilutive shares of Common Stock had been issued, using the treasury stock method, in accordance with ASC 260-10, “Earnings per Share.”

 

The Company computes net loss (income) per share using the two-class method required for participating securities. The two-class method requires income available to common stockholders for the period to be allocated between shares of Common Stock and participating securities based upon their respective rights to receive dividends as if all income for the period had been distributed. The Company considers its Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares to be participating securities as the holders of the Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares would be entitled to dividends that would be distributed to the holders of Common Stock, on a pro-rata basis assuming conversion of all Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares into shares of Common Stock. These participating securities do not contractually require the holders of such shares to participate in the Company’s losses. As such, net loss for the periods presented was not allocated to the Company’s participating securities.

 

G.Intangible Assets

 

Goodwill

 

Goodwill reflects the excess of the consideration transferred at the business combination date over the fair values of the identifiable net assets acquired. Goodwill is an asset representing the future economic benefits arising from other assets acquired in a business combination that are not individually identified and separately recognized. The primary items that generate goodwill include the value of the synergies between the acquired company and the Company and the acquired assembled workforce, neither of which qualifies for recognition as an intangible asset. ASC 350, “Intangibles—Goodwill and Other” allows an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether a quantitative goodwill impairment test is necessary. Further testing is only required if the entity determines, based on the qualitative assessment, that it is more likely than not that the fair value is less than its carrying amount. Otherwise, no further impairment testing is required.

BIOMX INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(USD and NIS in thousands, except share and per share data)

(unaudited)

 

NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.)

 

The Company’s goodwill is tested for impairment at least on an annual basis, on the last day of the fourth quarter of the fiscal year and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of a reporting unit may not be recoverable. When necessary, the Company records charges for impairments of goodwill for the amount by which the carrying amount of the respective reporting unit exceeds its fair value. However, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit.

 

Intangible assets

 

IPR&D assets acquired in a business combination are recognized at fair value as of the acquisition date and subsequently accounted for as indefinite-lived intangible assets until completion or abandonment of the associated R&D efforts. Indefinite-lived intangible assets are reviewed for impairment at least annually or whenever there is an indication that the asset may be impaired. 

 

H.Recent Accounting Standards

 

Recently issued accounting pronouncements, not yet adopted

 

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09 “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures” (“ASU 2023-09”). This guidance is intended to enhance the transparency and decision-usefulness of income tax disclosures. The amendments in ASU 2023-09 address investor requests for enhanced income tax information primarily through changes to disclosure regarding rate reconciliation and income taxes paid both in the U.S. and in foreign jurisdictions. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 on a prospective basis, with the option to apply the standard retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance to determine the impact it may have on its consolidated financial statements disclosures.

 

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-07 “Segment Reporting: Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures” (“ASU 2023-07”). This guidance expands public entities’ segment disclosures primarily by requiring disclosure of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss, an amount and description of its composition for other segment items, and interim disclosures of a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets that are currently required annually. Public entities with a single reportable segment are required to provide the new disclosures and all the disclosures required under ASC 280, “Segment Reporting”. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The amendments are required to be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in an entity’s financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance to determine the impact it may have on its consolidated financial statements disclosures.

 

NOTE 3 – FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

 

The Company accounts for financial instruments in accordance with ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC 820”). ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC 820 are described below:

 

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2 – Quoted prices in non-active markets or in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, observable inputs other than quoted prices, and inputs that are not directly observable but are corroborated by observable market data.

 

Level 3 – Prices or valuations that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.

 

There were no changes in the fair value hierarchy levelling during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and year ended December 31, 2023.

NOTE 3 – FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (Cont.)

 

The Company determined the fair value of the liabilities for the contingent consideration based on a probability discounted cash flow analysis. This fair value measurement is based on significant unobservable inputs in the market and thus represents a Level 3 measurement within the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of the contingent consideration is based on several factors, such as: the attainment of future clinical, developmental, regulatory, commercial and strategic milestones relating to product candidates for treatment of primary sclerosing cholangitis. The discount rate applied ranged from 4.13% to 4.52%. The contingent consideration is evaluated quarterly, or more frequently, if circumstances dictate. Changes in the fair value of contingent consideration are recorded in consolidated statements of operations. Significant changes in unobservable inputs, mainly the probability of success and cash flows projected, could result in material changes to the contingent consideration liability. Changes in contingent consideration for the six and three months ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023, resulted from the passage of time and discount rate revaluation.

 

The Company uses foreign exchange contracts (mainly option and forward contracts) to hedge cash flows from currency exposure. These foreign exchange contracts are not designated as hedging instruments for accounting purposes. In connection with these foreign exchange contracts, the Company recognizes gains or losses that offset the revaluation of the cash flows also recorded under financial expenses (income), net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. As of June 30, 2024, the Company had outstanding foreign exchange contracts for the exchange of USD to NIS in the amount of approximately $559 with a fair value asset of $17. As of December 31, 2023, the Company had outstanding foreign exchange contracts for the exchange of USD to NIS in the amount of approximately $4,136 with a fair value asset of $256.

 

The Company determined the fair value of the liabilities for the Private Placement Warrants using the Black-Scholes model, a Level 3 measurement, within the fair value hierarchy.

NOTE 6 – LEASES

 

On August 9, 2019, APT entered into a lease agreement (the “Lease Agreement”) with ARE-708 Quince Orchard, LLC (the “Landlord”), for office and lab spaces in Gaithersburg, Maryland starting on September 1, 2019. Over the course of years, APT and the Landlord amended the Lease Agreement in order to expand the square footage and to extend the lease period until November 28, 2034. The agreement included 49,625 square feet of area. The monthly lease payments under the lease agreement were approximately $255. On March 5, 2024, in connection with the Acquisition, APT and the Landlord, signed an amendment to the lease agreement. Pursuant to the amendment, the leased area will be decreased to 25,894 square feet (the “Remaining Area”), effective as of December 31, 2024. Following the amendment, the revised monthly lease payments are approximately $134. In exchange, APT was required to pay a relinquished premises fee in an amount equal to $1,500 within 10 business days following March 15, 2024 (the “Amendment Effective Date”). In addition, the Company issued the Landlord 250,000 warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 250,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock at an exercise price of $5.00 per share. The warrants became exercisable from the date of the receipt of BiomX stockholder approval, which was obtained on July 9, 2024, and will expire on January 28, 2027. The amendment also included a one-time option to early terminate the lease agreement on February 28, 2029 with respect to the Remaining Area under certain terms. The execution of the early termination will require APT to pay a termination fee of $3,000.

 

APT accounted for the decreased leased area and the termination option as a modification as it continues to use the area for a period of time after the termination. The modification occurred before the Acquisition as APT signed the amendment before the Closing Date but was contingent upon the Acquisition. The operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities contemplate the termination option.

 

Lease expenses recorded in the condensed statements of operations were $967 and $546 for the six and three months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, and $608 and $292 for the six and three months ended June 30, 2023, respectively.

NOTE 7 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

  A.

In August 2021, the Israeli Innovation Authority (“IIA”) approved an application that supports upgrading the Company’s manufacturing capabilities for an aggregate budget of NIS 5,737 (approximately $1,778). The IIA committed to fund 50% of the approved budget. The program was for the period beginning July 2021 through June 2022. The program does not bear royalties. Through June 30, 2024, the Company received NIS 1,912 (approximately $577) from the IIA with respect to this program.

 

In March 2022, the IIA approved an application for a total budget of NIS 13,004 (approximately $4,094) in relation to the Company’s cystic fibrosis product candidate. The IIA committed to fund 30% of the approved budget. The program was for the period beginning January 2022 through December 2022. Through June 30, 2024, the Company received NIS 1,365 (approximately $395) from the IIA with respect to this program.

 

In March 2023, the IIA approved an application for a total budget of NIS 11,283 (approximately $3,164) in relation to the Company’s cystic fibrosis product candidate. The IIA committed to fund 30% of the approved budget. The program was for the period beginning January 2023 through December 2023. Through June 30, 2024, the Company received NIS 2,783 (approximately $768) from the IIA with respect to this program.

 

According to the agreement with the IIA, excluding the August 2021 program, BiomX Israel will pay royalties of 3% to 3.5% of future sales up to an amount equal to the accumulated grant received including annual interest of LIBOR linked to the USD. Starting January 2024, the IIA has notified that the interest has changed to the 12-month Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) as published on the first trading day of each calendar year. BiomX Israel may be required to pay additional royalties upon the occurrence of certain events as determined by the IIA, that are within the control of BiomX Israel. No such events have occurred or were probable of occurrence as of the balance sheet date with respect to these royalties. Repayment of the grant is contingent upon the successful completion of the BiomX Israel’s R&D programs and generating sales. BiomX Israel has no obligation to repay these grants if the R&D program fails, is unsuccessful or aborted or if no sales are generated. The Company had not yet generated sales as of June 30, 2024; therefore, no liability was recorded in these condensed consolidated financial statements. IIA grants are recorded as a reduction of R&D expenses, net.

 

Through June 30, 2024, total grants approved from the IIA aggregated to approximately $9,353 (NIS 32,068). Through June 30, 2024, the Company had received an aggregate amount of $8,003 (NIS 27,423) in the form of grants from the IIA. Total grants subject to royalties’ payments aggregated to approximately $7,413. As of June 30, 2024, BiomX Israel had a contingent obligation to the IIA in the amount of approximately $8,124 including annual interest of SOFR applicable to dollar deposits.

Under the agreement, BiomX Israel is eligible to receive fees totaling $1,411 to cover costs to be incurred by BiomX Israel in conducting the research plan under the collaboration. The fees were paid in four installments according to certain activities under the agreement. In December 2023, the Company completed its obligations with respect to this agreement and the last installment of $211 was received on January 18, 2024. The consideration is recorded as a reduction of R&D expenses, net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations according to the input model method on a cost-to-cost basis.

 

NOTE 8 - U.S. GOVERNMENT CONTRACTS AND GRANTS

 

In 2019, APT entered into a Base Agreement and Research Project Award (collectively, the “Agreement”) with the U.S. Army Medical Research Acquisition Activity (“USAMRAA”) and the U.S. Army Medical Research & Development Command (“USAMRDC”) to advance personalized phage therapy from niche to broad use. Awards under the Agreement are intended to lay the groundwork for rapid advancement of personalized phage therapy to commercialization for the variety of clinical indications and bacterial pathogens representing un-met needs with a focus on infections with significant military relevance. The competitive award was granted by USAMRAA and USAMRDC in collaboration with the Medical Technology Enterprise Consortium (“MTEC”), a 501(c)(3) biomedical technology consortium working in partnership with the U.S. Department of Defense. Under the Agreement, MTEC reimburses APT for approved incurred costs that are based upon the achievement of certain milestones for conduct and completion of a Phase 1/2 study utilizing APT’s PhageBank to treat patients with urinary tract infections (“UTIs”). Over the course of years, APT entered into certain modifications to the contract to include additional activities for APT’s UTI program and perform pre-clinical activities to advance the Diabetic Foot Ulcer clinical program, as well as to include expanded activities to advance potential bacteriophage-based vaccines against COVID-19, for a total contract value of $36,214. In conjunction with this Agreement, APT is subject to an assessment fee of an amount equal to 3% of the total funded value of the research project award which should be paid by the Company upon signing the agreement or the modifications. For the period between the Acquisition and June 30, 2024, the Company received grants of $2,363 from MTEC with respect to the cost reimbursement contract. During the six and three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recorded $953 and $757 as a reduction of R&D expenses, net, respectively. The remainder of the consideration the Company is entitled to receive is recorded as other current assets in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

NOTE 9 – LONG-TERM DEBT

 

On August 16, 2021 (the “Closing Date”), the Company entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with Hercules Capital, Inc. (“Hercules”), with respect to a venture debt facility. Under the Loan Agreement, $15,000 was advanced to the Company on the date the Loan Agreement was executed. The Company was required to make interest only payments through March 1, 2023, and started to then repay the principal balance and interest in equal monthly installments through September 1, 2025.

 

The Loan Agreement provided that the Company could prepay advances under the Loan Agreement, in whole or in part, at any time subject to a prepayment charge equal to 1.0% after 24 months but prior to 36 months following the Closing Date. Upon prepayment or repayment of all or any of the term loans under the Term Loan Facility, the Company was required to pay an end of term charge (“End of Term Charge”) equal to 6.55% of the total aggregate amount of the term loans being prepaid or repaid. On March 19, 2024, the Company prepaid the entire balance under the Term Loan Facility in a total of $10,428. The prepayment included the End of Term Charge of $983 and accrued interest of $69. The Company received from Hercules a waiver regarding the prepayment charge that should have been 1% out of the prepaid principal amount that equals to $94.

 

Interest expense relating to the term loan, which is included in interest expense in the condensed statements of operations was $850 for the six months ended June 30, 2024. No interest expense was recognized in connection with the term loan for the three months ended June 30, 2024. Interest expense for the six and three months ended June 30, 2023, was $1,310 and $745, respectively.

NOTE 10 – STOCKHOLDERS EQUITY

 

  A. Share Capital:

 

Private Investment in Public Equity:

 

On February 22, 2023, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement to issue and sell an aggregate of 15,997,448 shares of its Common Stock and 14,610,714 pre-funded warrants (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”) at a price of $0.245 per share and $0.244 per Pre-Funded Warrant in a private placement (the “February 2023 PIPE”). The net proceeds from the PIPE were approximately $7,152, after deducting issuance costs of $333. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, 5,330,306 Pre-Funded Warrants were exercised into 5,330,306 shares of Common Stock for total consideration of $6 at an exercise price of $0.001 per share of Common Stock, and 9,280,408 Pre-Funded Warrants were exercised into 9,256,064 shares of Common Stock through cashless mechanism with no consideration. As of June 30, 2024, there are no outstanding Pre-Funded Warrants.

 

On March 15, 2024, in connection with the Acquisition, the Company issued to APT’s former stockholders 9,164,968 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, 40,470 Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares and 2,166,497 Merger Warrants. See Note 1D for further information.

 

Concurrently with the consummation of the Acquisition as described in Note 1D, the Company entered into the March 2024 PIPE, pursuant to which such investors purchased an aggregate of 216,417 Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares (“PIPE Preferred Shares”) and Private Placement Warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 108,208,500 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, at a combined price of $231.10 per share. The PIPE Preferred Shares and the Private Placement Warrants were issued in a private placement pursuant to an exemption from registration requirements under the Securities Act for aggregate gross proceeds of $50,000. Each Private Placement Warrant’s exercise price equals to $0.2311, subject to customary adjustments for stock dividends, stock splits, reclassifications and the like, became exercisable from the date of the receipt of BiomX stockholder approval, which was obtained on July 9, 2024, and will expire on July 9, 2026. Under certain circumstances, the Company may be required to pay to each holder of the Private Placement Warrants (i) an amount in cash equal to the holder’s total purchase price for the shares of Common Stock purchased (the “Buy-In Price”) or credit such holder’s balance account with the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) for such shares of Common Stock shall terminate, or (ii) promptly honor its obligation to deliver to such holder a certificate or certificates representing such shares of Common Stock or credit such holder’s balance account with DTC, as applicable, and pay cash to such holder in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Buy-In Price over the product of (A) such number of shares of Common Stock, times (B) Weighted Average Price (as defined in the Private Placement Warrant) on the trading day immediately preceding the exercise date. See Note 13a for further information regarding the conversion of the PIPE Preferred Shares and the Private Placement Warrants subsequent to the financial statements date.

 

The Company accounted for the Private Placement Warrants as liabilities as the Private Placement Warrants are not considered indexed to the entity’s own stock based on the provision of ASC 815. The Private Placement Warrants will be measured at fair value at inception and in subsequent reporting periods with changes in fair value recognized in the condensed consolidated statements.

 

The terms of the PIPE Preferred Shares are substantially the same as those of the Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares issued under the Acquisition and were accounted for as temporary equity at the issuance date. As of June 30, 2024, the PIPE Preferred Shares were reclassified as equity. See Note 1D for further information.

 

In connection therewith, the Company issued warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s Common Stock to the Placement Agents (the “Agents Warrants”). See Note 10B for further information.

 

The Company allocated the total consideration from the issuance of the 2024 March PIPE first to the fair value of the Private Placement Warrants and then to the PIPE Preferred Shares. The Company had transaction costs of approximately $3,317 out of which $1,273 is Stock-Based Compensation due to issuance of the Agents Warrants. The transaction costs were allocated in the same manner as the consideration. Issuance costs which were allocated to the PIPE Preferred Shares were $1,410 and deducted from Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares, and issuance costs that were allocated to the Private Placement Warrants were $1,907 and were expensed immediately.

 

At-the-Market Sales Agreement:

  

In December 2023, pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-3 declared effective by the SEC on January 2, 2024, the Company entered an At the Market Offering Agreement with H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC (“Wainwright”), pursuant to which the Company may issue and sell shares of Common Stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $7,500 from time to time through Wainwright. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company sold 75,179 shares of Common Stock under this agreement, at an average price of $0.271 per share, raising aggregate net proceeds of approximately $19, after deducting an aggregate commission of $1.

  B. Stock-based Compensation:

  

On March 15, 2024, the Company issued 9,523,809 Agents Warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 9,523,809 shares of the Company’s Common Stock to the Placement Agents in connection with the March 2024 PIPE. The exercise price of the Agents Warrants is $0.2311 per share and they became exercisable at any time after the date of the receipt of BiomX stockholder approval, which was obtained on July 9, 2024, and will expire on July 9, 2026.

 

The Company accounted for the Agents Warrants under the scope of ASC 718-10 “Stock-Based Payment”, (“ASC 718-10”), and treated them as issuance costs of the March 2024 PIPE as the Company considers these Warrants as consideration for receipt of Private Placement Services.

 

The Company determined the fair value of the Agents Warrants using the Black-Scholes model as of March 5, 2024. The main assumptions used are as follows:

NOTE 11 – BASIC AND DILUTED LOSS (EARNINGS) PER SHARE

 

Basic loss (earnings) per share is computed on the basis of the net loss (income) for the period divided by the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding during the period, fully vested warrants with no exercise price for the Company’s Common Stock and fully vested Pre-Funded Warrants for the Company’s Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.001 per share, as the Company considers these shares to be exercised for little to no additional consideration.

 

Diluted loss per share is based upon the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock and of potential shares of Common Stock outstanding when dilutive. Potential shares of Common Stock equivalents include outstanding stock options and warrants, which are included under the treasury stock method when dilutive.

 

The calculation of diluted loss per share for the six and three months ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023, does not include the shares underlying the following financial instruments because their effect would be anti-dilutive:

NOTE 12 – EVENTS DURING THE PERIOD

 

In October 2021, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with a subsidiary of Maruho Co. Ltd., (“Maruho”), pursuant to which the Company issued to Maruho shares of Common Stock of the Company and granted Maruho a right of first offer to license its atopic dermatitis product candidate, BX005, in Japan. The right of first offer was supposed to commence following the availability of results from the Phase 1/2 study which were expected in 2022. Part of the consideration paid under the agreements, equal to the grant date fair value of the shares issued to Maruho was attributed to the issuance of shares. The remainder of $1,976 was attributed to a contract liability, to be recognized as other income, at a point in time, once the clinical trials related to the product candidate are completed. In April 2024, following the Acquisition, the Company decided to pause the development of BX005. As a result, the parties agreed that the right of first offer to license BX005 is no longer applicable. As a result, the Company reversed the full amount of the contract liability and recognized $1,976 as Other Income in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations 

 

References in this Quarterly Report to “the Company”, “BiomX”, “we”, “us” or “our”, mean BiomX Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries unless otherwise expressly stated or the context indicates otherwise.

 

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the notes thereto contained elsewhere in this Quarterly Report. The analysis of the financial condition and results of operations includes Adaptive Phage Therapeutics LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (formerly Adaptive Phage Therapeutics Inc., a Delaware corporation), or APT from the date that we acquired it on March 15, 2024. Certain information contained in the discussion and analysis set forth below includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ materially from those discussed in any forward-looking statement because of various factors discussed in this Quarterly Report and in our other filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC.

 

General 

 

We are a clinical stage product discovery company developing products using both natural and engineered phage technologies designed to target and kill specific harmful bacteria associated with chronic diseases, such as cystic fibrosis, or CF and diabetic foot osteomyelitis, or DFO. Bacteriophage or phage are bacterial, species-specific, strain-limited viruses that infect, amplify and kill the target bacteria and are considered inert to mammalian cells. By utilizing proprietary combinations of naturally occurring phage and by creating novel phage using synthetic biology, we develop phage-based therapies intended to address both large-market and orphan diseases.

 

Based on the urgency of treating the infection (whether acute or chronic), the susceptibility of the target bacteria to phage (e.g. the ability to identify a phage cocktail that would target a broad range of bacterial strains) and other considerations, we offer two phage-based product types:

 

  (1) Fixed cocktail therapy – in this approach a single product containing a fixed number of selected phage is developed to cover a wide range of bacterial strains, thus allowing treatment of broad patient populations with the same product. Fixed cocktails are developed using our proprietary BOLT platform, in which high throughput screening, directed evolution, and bioinformatic approaches are leveraged to produce an optimal phage cocktail.

 

  (2) Personalized therapy – in this approach a large library of phage is developed, of which a single optimal phage is personally matched to treat specific patients. Matching optimal phage with patients is carried out using a proprietary phage susceptibility testing, where multiple considerations are analyzed simultaneously – allowing for an efficient screen of the phage library while maintaining short turnaround times.

 

In our therapeutic programs, we focus on using phage therapy to target specific strains of pathogenic bacteria that are associated with diseases. Our phage-based product candidates are developed utilizing our proprietary research and development platform named BOLT. The BOLT platform is unique, employing cutting edge methodologies and capabilities across disciplines including computational biology, microbiology, synthetic engineering of phage and their production bacterial hosts, bioanalytical assay development, manufacturing and formulation, to allow agile and efficient development of natural or engineered phage combinations, or cocktails. The cocktail contains phage with complementary features and is optimized for multiple characteristics such as broad target host range, ability to prevent resistance, biofilm penetration, stability and ease of manufacturing.

 

Our goal is to develop multiple products based on the ability of phage to precisely target harmful bacteria and on our ability to screen, identify and combine different phage, both naturally occurring and created using synthetic engineering, to develop these treatments.

On March 6, 2024, we entered into a merger agreement with APT and certain other parties, as a result of which APT became our wholly-owned subsidiary, effective as of March 15, 2024, or the Acquisition. The Acquisition was structured as a stock-for-stock transaction whereby all outstanding equity interests of APT were exchanged in a merger for an aggregate of 9,164,968 shares of BiomX common stock, 40,470 shares of Series X Preferred Stock, or Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares, convertible upon stockholder approval into 40,470,000 shares of BiomX common stock, and warrants, or the Merger Warrants, exercisable for 2,166,497 shares of BiomX common stock. Upon the consummation of the Acquisition, a successor-in-interest of APT became a wholly-owned subsidiary of BiomX. The Merger Warrants are exercisable at any time after July 9, 2024 at an exercise price of $5.00 per share and will expire on January 28, 2027.

 

Concurrently with the consummation of the Acquisition, we entered into a securities purchase agreement or the March 2024 PIPE with certain investors, pursuant to which such investors purchased an aggregate of 216,417 Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares and warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 108,208,500 shares of Common Stock, or the Private Placement Warrants, for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $50 million.

 

Immediately following the Acquisition, and without taking into account the Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares issued in the March 2024 PIPE, and assuming conversion of all of the Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares into Common Stock, our stockholders (including holders of the Pre-Funded Warrants, as defined below) prior to the Acquisition owned approximately 55% of the share capital of the Company and APT’s stockholders prior to the Acquisition owned approximately 45% of the share capital of the Company.

 

On July 9, 2024, the stockholder approved, among other things, the conversion of 256,887 Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares into up to 256,887,000 shares of Common stock. Subsequently, on July 15, 2024, 109,152 Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares were converted into 109,152,000 shares of Common Stock according to beneficial ownership limitations set by certain investors.

 

Clinical and Pre-Clinical Developments  

 

Ongoing Programs

 

Cystic Fibrosis

 

BX004 is our therapeutic phage product candidate under development for chronic pulmonary infections caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa, or P. aeruginosa, a main contributor to morbidity and mortality in patients with CF. Enhanced resistance to antibiotics develops, particularly in CF patients, due to extensive drug use consisting of prolonged and repeated broad-spectrum antibiotic courses often beginning in childhood, and leading to the appearance of multidrug-resistant strains. In preclinical in vitro studies, BX004 was shown to be active against antibiotic resistant strains of P. aeruginosa and demonstrated the ability to penetrate biofilm, an assemblage of surface-associated microbial cells enclosed in an extracellular polymeric substance and one of the leading causes for antibiotic resistance.

 

The Phase 1b/2a trial in CF patients with chronic respiratory infections caused by P. aeruginosa. is comprised of two parts. The study design is based on recommendations from the Cystic Fibrosis Therapeutic Development Network.

 

In February 2023, we announced positive results from Part 1 of the Phase 1b/2a trial evaluating BX004. Part 1 evaluated the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and microbiologic activity of BX004 over a 7-day ascending treatment period in nine CF patients (7 on BX004, 2 on placebo) with chronic P. aeruginosa pulmonary infection in a single ascending dose and multiple dose design.

 

Results from Part 1 of the Phase 1b/2a trial included the following findings: No safety events related to treatment with BX004 occurred; Mean P. aeruginosa colony forming units, at Day 15 (compared to baseline): -1.42 log (BX004) vs. -0.28 log (placebo). This reduction was seen on top of standard of care inhaled antibiotics; Phage were detected in all patients treated with BX004 during the dosing period, including in several patients up to Day 15 (one week after end of therapy); no phage were detected in patients receiving placebo; there was no evidence of treatment-related resistance to BX004 during or after treatment, compared to placebo; and as expected due to the short duration of treatment, there was no detectable effect on % predicted forced expiratory volume in 1 second, or FEV1.

 

In November 2023, we announced positive topline results from Part 2 of the Phase 1b/2a trial evaluating BX004. The objectives of Part 2 of the Phase 1b/2a trial were to evaluate the safety and tolerability of BX004 in a larger number of CF patients dosed for a longer treatment duration than Part 1 of the study. In Part 2, 34 CF patients were randomized in a 2:1 ratio with 23 CF patients receiving BX004 and 11 patients receiving placebo via nebulization twice daily for 10 days.

Highlights from the Part 2 data of the Phase 1b/2a study included:

 

  ● Study drug was safe and well-tolerated, with no related SAEs (serious adverse events) or related APEs (acute pulmonary exacerbations) to study drug.

 

  ● In the BX004 arm, 3 out of 21 (14.3%) patients converted to sputum culture negative for P. aeruginosa after 10 days of treatment (including 2 patients after 4 days) compared to 0 out of 10 (0%) in the placebo arm (In patients that had quantitative colony-forming unit levels at study baseline).

 

  ● BX004 vs. placebo showed a clinical effect in a predefined subgroup of patients with reduced baseline lung function (FEV1<70%). Difference between groups at Day 17: relative FEV1 improvement of 5.67% (change from baseline +1.46 vs. -4.21) and +8.87 points in CFQR respiratory symptom scale (change from baseline +2.52 vs. -6.35).

 

In August 2023, the FDA granted BX004 Fast Track designation for the treatment of chronic respiratory infections caused by P. aeruginosa bacterial strains in patients with CF. In addition, in December 2023, BX004 received orphan drug designation from the FDA.

 

BiomX expects to initiate a randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled, multi-center Phase 2b study in CF patients with chronic P. aeruginosa pulmonary infections in the fourth quarter of 2024. The study is designed to enroll approximately 60 patients randomized at a 2:1 ratio to BX004 or placebo. Treatment is expected to be administered via inhalation twice daily for a duration of 8 weeks. The study is designed to monitor the safety and tolerability of BX004 and is designed to demonstrate improvement in microbiological reduction of P. aeruginosa burden and evaluation of effects on clinical parameters such as lung function measured by FEV1 and patient reported outcomes. Study results are expected in the third quarter 2025. 

 

BX211 – Treatment of Diabetic Foot Osteomyelitis, or DFO

 

BX211 is a personalized phage therapy for the treatment of DFO associated with Staphylococcus aureus, or S. aureus, a bacterium associated with the development and exacerbation of inflammation in atopic dermatitis. The personalized phage treatment tailors a specific phage selected from a proprietary phage-bank according to the specific strain of S. aureus biopsied and isolated from each patient. DFO is a bacterial infection of the bone that usually develops from an infected foot ulcer and is a leading cause of amputation in patients with diabetes. We believe that scientific literature demonstrating the potential benefit in treating osteomyelitis using phage in animal models as well as numerous successful compassionate cases using phage therapy to treat DFO patient support our approach of using phage therapy to treat DFO.

 

The ongoing randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-center Phase 2 study investigating the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of BX211 for subjects with DFO associated with S. aureus is targeting to enroll approximately 45 subjects randomized at a 2:1 ratio to BX211 or placebo. BX211 or placebo is designed to be administered weekly, by topical and intravenous, or IV route at week 1 and by the topical route only at each of weeks 2-12. Over the 12-week treatment period, all subjects are expected to continue to be treated in accordance with standard of care which will include antibiotic treatment as appropriate. A first readout of study topline results is expected at week 13 evaluating healing of the wound associated with osteomyelitis, followed by a second readout at week 52 evaluating amputation rates and resolution of osteomyelitis based on X-ray, clinical assessments, and established biomarkers (Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate, or ESR, and C-Reactive Protein, or CRP). These readouts are expected in the first quarter of 2025 and the first quarter of 2026, respectively.

 

National Institutes of Health, or NIH, study in Cystic Fibrosis

 

We are supporting a study conducted by the NIH and The Antibacterial Resistance Leadership Group targeting P. Aeruginosa infections in CF patients under FDA emergency Investigational New Drug allowance. Phase 1b/2, multi-centered, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial is assessing the safety and microbiological activity of a single IV dose of bacteriophage therapy in cystic fibrosis subjects colonized with P. aeruginosa.

Programs on hold

 

BX005 – Treatment of Atopic Dermatitis, or AD 

 

BX005 is our topical phage product candidate targeting S. aureus. S. aureus is more abundant on the skin of AD patients than on the skin of healthy individuals and on lesional skin than non-lesional skin. It also increases in abundance, becoming the dominant bacteria, when patients experience flares. By reducing the load of S. aureus, BX005 is designed to shift the skin microbiome composition to its ‘pre-flare’ state and potentially provide a clinical benefit. In preclinical in vitro studies, BX005 was shown to eradicate over 90% of strains, including antibiotic resistant strains, from a panel of S. aureus strains (120 strains isolated from skin of subjects from the U.S. and Europe). On April 8, 2022, the FDA approved the Company’s IND application for BX005.

 

As previously reported, we paused development efforts for BX005 due to prioritizing resources towards our CF and DFO programs, and we cannot provide guidance on resuming its development.

 

Prosthetic Joint Infections, or PJI

 

Our personalized phage therapy for treating PJI targets multiple bacterial organisms such as Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis and Enterococcus faecium. This treatment was granted Orphan-drug designation by the FDA in July 2020. As of the date of this Quarterly Report, we have paused development efforts of this program due to prioritizing resources towards our CF and DFO programs, and we cannot provide guidance on resuming its development.

 

Consolidated Results of Operations 

 

Comparison of the Three Months Ended June 30, 2024 and 2023

 

The following table summarizes our consolidated results of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023:

R&D expenses, net (net of grants received from the Israel Innovation Authority (“IIA”) and the Medical Technology Enterprise Consortium (“MTEC”), and consideration from research collaborations) were $6.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $3.8 million for same period in 2023. The increase of $3.1 million, or 82%, is primarily due to the following factors:

 

●preparations for Phase 2b in the clinical trial of our CF product candidate, BX004,

 

●an increase in expenses relating to the clinical trial of our DFO product candidate, BX211; and

 

●the second quarter of 2024 represents the first full quarter following the Acquisition, incorporating the combined workforce.

 

The increase was partly offset by higher grants we received. During the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recorded $0.8 million of MTEC grants, compared to $0.4 million of IIA grants recorded in the same period in 2023.

 

General and administrative expenses were $2.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $2.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The increase of $0.5 million, or 22%, is primarily attributed to a full quarter consolidation of expenses for the first time following the Acquisition, incorporating the combined workforce, increased professional services, and additional subcontractor expenses.

 

Other income was $2.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $0.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The increase of $1.9 million, or 1900%, is primarily due to the reversion of the contract liability associated with the Company’s AD program which was paused.

 

Interest expenses were $14,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $745,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The decrease of $731,000, or 98%, is due to repayment of the loan under the Loan and Security Agreement, or the Hercules Loan Agreement, with Hercules Capital, Inc., or Hercules, in March 2024.

 

Income from change in fair value of Private Placement Warrants reflects the revaluation that resulted from the accounting of the Private Placement Warrants issued under the March 2024 PIPE.

 

There was no material change to Finance income that impacted earnings for the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023

 

Basic earnings per share of Common Stock was $0.01 for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to loss per share of $0.12 for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The increase of $0.13 resulted from the revaluation of the Private Placement Warrants and the contract liability reversion.

 

Diluted loss per share of Common Stock was $0.07 for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to diluted loss per share of $0.12 for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The decrease of $0.05 resulted from the inclusion of the potential Common Stock that would have been issued upon exercises of the Private Placement Warrants.

Basic and diluted loss per share of Common Stock   0.19    0.31 
Weighted average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding, basic and diluted   66,059,510    41,860,338 

 

R&D expenses, net (net of grants received from IIA and MTEC, and consideration from research collaborations) were $11.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $8.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase of $2.6 million, or 31%, is mainly attributed to the second quarter of 2024 representing the first full quarter following the Acquisition, incorporating the combined workforce. Such increase was partly offset by the completing of the enrollment and follow-up period of patients in the clinical trial of our CF product candidate, BX004. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recorded $1.0 million of MTEC grants, compared to $0.7 million of IIA grants for the same period in 2023.

 

General and administrative expenses were $5.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $3.9 million for the same period in 2023. The increase of $1.6 million, or 41%, is primarily due to issuance costs incurred under the Acquisition and the March 2024 PIPE agreement. In addition, the second quarter of 2024 represents the first full quarter following the Acquisition, incorporating the combined workforce, increased professional services, and additional subcontractor costs.

 

Other income was $2.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $0.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase of $1.9 million, or 950%, is primarily due to the reversion of the contract liability associated with the Company’s AD program which has been paused.

 

Interest expenses were $0.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $1.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The decrease of $0.4 million, or 31%, is due to the repayment of the loan under the Loan and Security Agreement in March 2024.

 

Income from change in fair value of Private Placement Warrants reflects the revaluation that resulted from the accounting of the Private Placement Warrants issued under the March 2024 PIPE.

 

Finance expenses, net were $1.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to Finance income, net of $0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase of $2.1 million resulted mainly from the Private Placement Warrants transaction costs. This was partly offset by the appreciation of the NIS against the U.S. dollar, which resulted in higher exchange rate income.

 

Basic and diluted loss per share of Common Stock was $0.19 for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $0.31 for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The decrease in loss per share of $0.12, or 39%, is primarily attributable to an increase in outstanding shares resulting from the share issuance as part of the Acquisition.

Liquidity and Capital Resources 

 

We believe our cash and cash equivalents and short-term deposits on hand will be sufficient to meet our working capital and capital expenditure requirements into the fourth quarter of 2025. We currently plan to continue to focus primarily on development of BX004, our product candidate for treating CF and BX211, our product candidate for treating DFO. Although we recently completed the 2024 March PIPE, in the future we will likely require or desire additional funds to support our operating expenses and capital requirements. Accordingly, we are exploring and expect to further explore, raising such additional funds through public or private equity, debt financings, loans, governmental or other grants or collaborative agreements or from other sources, as well as under the 2023 ATM Agreement discussed below. If we are unable to obtain adequate financing or financing on terms satisfactory to us, when we require it, our ability to continue to grow or support our business and to respond to business challenges could be significantly limited. If there are increases in operating costs for facilities expansion, research and development and clinical activity, we will need to use mitigating actions such as to seek additional financing or postpone expenses that are not based on firm commitments. If certain disruptions due to, for instance, the Israel-Hamas War, or Israeli political instability persists and deepens, we could experience an inability to access additional capital, which could in the future negatively affect our capacity to support our operating expenses and capital requirements. As a result of these factors, management believes that there is substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

Cash Flows

 

The following table summarizes our sources and uses of cash for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023:  

 

   Six Months Ended

Effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash   (46)   (29)

 

Operating Activities

 

Net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $22.6 million, primarily driven by a net loss of $12.9 million, mostly attributable to our R&D, general and administrative expenses, as well as changes in our operating assets and liabilities of $5.0 million. This was partly offset by non-cash charges of $4.7 million. Non-cash charges for the six months ended June 30, 2024 consisted primarily of income from change in fair value of the Private Placement Warrants of $3.9 million, and income from change in contract liability in amount of $2.0 million resulting from pausing the Company’s AD program. Additionally, there were depreciation and amortization expenses of $0.6 million and Private Placement Warrants issuance costs of $0.7 million. Net changes in our operating assets and liabilities consisted primarily of a decrease in trade accounts payable of $2.2 million and decrease in other accounts payables of $2.9 million. These were partially offset by a decrease in other current and non-current assets of $0.8 million.

 

Net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $9.2 million, primarily due to a net loss of $12.8 million, mostly driven by our R&D and general and administrative expenses, as well as changes in our operating assets and liabilities of $2.6 million. These were offset by non-cash charges of $1.0 million. Non-cash charges for the six months ended June 30, 2023 consisted primarily of depreciation and amortization expenses of $0.4 million and stock-based compensation expenses of $0.4 million. Net changes in our operating assets and liabilities consisted primarily of an increase in trade accounts payable of $1.3 million primarily driven by expenses related to conducting the clinical trial of our CF product candidate, BX004, and increased other accounts payable in the amount of $1.2 million. These were partially offset by an increase in other current assets in the amount of $0.1 million.

We have invested, and plan to continue to invest, our existing cash in short-term investments in accordance with our investment policy. These investments may include money market funds and investment securities consisting of U.S. Treasury notes, and high quality, marketable debt instruments of corporations and government sponsored enterprises. We use foreign exchange contracts (mainly option and forward contracts) to hedge balance sheet items from currency exposure. These foreign exchange contracts are not designated as hedging instruments for accounting purposes. In connection with these foreign exchange contracts, we record gains or losses that offset the revaluation of the balance sheet items under financial income, net in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. As of June 30, 2024, we had outstanding foreign exchange contracts for the exchange of USD to NIS in the amount of approximately $0.6 million with a fair value asset of $0.01 million. As of June 30, 2023, we had outstanding foreign exchange contracts for the exchange of USD to NIS in the amount of approximately $2.7 million with a fair value of $0.55 million liability.

 

Financing Activities

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, net cash provided by financing activities was $39.0 million, mainly consisting of the issuance of Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares and the Private Placement Warrants in the March 2024 PIPE in the amount of $20.8 million, net of issuance costs and $28.7 million, respectively. This was partially offset by the prepayment of the long-term debt in the amount of $10.7 million under the Hercules Loan Agreement.

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, net cash provided by financing activities was $5.5 million, mainly consisting of the issuance of Common Stock in the first and second closings of the February 2023 PIPE of $7.2 million net of issuance costs, partially offset by the repayment of long-term debt of $1.7 million under the Hercules Loan Agreement.

  

Under the Hercules Loan Agreement, Hercules provided the Company with access to a term loan with an aggregate principal amount of up to $30 million, or the Term Loan Facility, available in three tranches, subject to certain terms and conditions. The first tranche of $15 million was advanced to us on the date the Hercules Loan Agreement was executed. The conditions for the second and third tranches were not reached and have expired. We were required to make interest only payments through March 1, 2023, and started to then repay the principal balance and interest in equal monthly installments. Interest on the Hercules Loan accrues at a per annum rate equal to the greater of (i) the Prime Rate as reported in The Wall Street Journal plus 5.70% and (ii) 8.95%. On March 19, 2024, the Company prepaid all of the term loan under the Term Loan Facility in a total of $10,428,000. The prepayment included an end of term charge of $983,000 and accrued interest of $69,000. The Company received a waiver regarding the prepayment charge that should have been 1% out of the prepaid principal amount, equaling $94,000.

 

On December 7, 2023, we filed a shelf registration statement on Form S-3, which was declared effective by the SEC on January 2, 2024. In addition, on December 7, 2023, we entered into an At the Market Offering Agreement, or the 2023 ATM Agreement, with H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC, or Wainwright, with Wainwright, as manager, pursuant to which we may issue and sell shares of our Common Stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $7.5 million from time to time through Wainwright. We are not obligated to make any sales of Common Stock under the 2023 ATM Agreement. From January 1, 2024 through August 12, 2024, we issued 75,179 shares of Common Stock pursuant to the 2023 ATM Agreement for aggregate gross proceeds of $19 thousand.

 

On March 15, 2024, concurrently with the consummation of the Acquisition, we consummated the March 2024 PIPE with existing and new investors, resulting in aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $50 million, in which the investors purchased (i) an aggregate of 216,417 Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares, convertible upon stockholder approval, which was obtained on July 9, 2024, into an aggregate of up to 216,417,000 shares of BiomX common stock, and (ii) the Private Placement Warrants, to purchase up to an aggregate of 108,208,500 shares of BiomX common stock, at a combined purchase price of $231.10 per share of Series X Preferred Stock and an accompanying Private Placement Warrant to purchase 500 shares of BiomX common stock. The Private Placement Warrants are exercisable at an exercise price of $0.2311 per share, and will expire on July 9, 2026.

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, 5,330,306 Pre-Funded Warrants were exercised into 5,330,306 shares of Common Stock for total consideration of $6,000 at an exercise price of $0.001 per share of Common Stock, and 9,280,408 Pre-Funded Warrants were exercised into 9,256,064 shares of Common Stock through cashless mechanism with no consideration.

Outlook 

 

We have accumulated a deficit of $175.8 million since our inception. To date, we have not generated revenue from our operations, and we do not expect to generate any significant revenues from sales of products in the next twelve months. Our cash needs may increase in the foreseeable future. We expect to generate revenues, from the sale of licenses to use our technology or products, but in the short and medium terms any amounts generated are unlikely to exceed our costs of operations. According to our estimates and based on our current operating plans, our liquidity resources as of June 30, 2024, which consisted primarily of cash, cash equivalents, short-term deposits and restricted cash of approximately $32.7 million will be sufficient to fund our operations into the fourth quarter of 2025. 

 

Consistent with our ongoing R&D activities, we expect to continue to incur additional losses in the foreseeable future. To the extent we require funds above our existing liquidity resources in the medium and long term, we plan to fund our operations, as well as other development activities relating to additional product candidates, through future issuances of public or private equity, including under our 2023 ATM Agreement, issuance of debt securities, loans, and possibly additional grants from the IIA or other government or non-profit institutions. Our ability to raise additional capital in the equity and debt markets is dependent on a number of factors including, but not limited to, the market demand for our securities, which itself is subject to a number of development and business risks and uncertainties, as well as the uncertainty that we would be able to raise such additional capital at a price or on terms that are favorable to us.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to make disclosures under this Item.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as that term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, conducted an evaluation, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2024.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting, as that term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, during the quarter ended June 30, 2024 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors

 

In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results.

 

There have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the SEC on April 4, 2024, except as noted below.

 

Risks Related to Owning Our Securities 

 

We are subject to the continued listing standards of the NYSE American and our failure to satisfy these criteria may result in delisting of our shares of Common Stock, which could harm us in several manners.

 

Our shares of Common Stock are listed on the NYSE American. In order to maintain this listing, we must meet certain standards, including, among other things, maintaining a minimum amount of stockholders’ equity and a minimum number of public stockholders. In addition to these objective standards, the NYSE American may delist the securities of any issuer under other circumstances that are more discretionary based.

 

On May 23, 2024, we received a deficiency letter, or the NYSE Notice, 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, or the Company Guide, because we did not meet the minimum required stockholders’ equity standards.

 

We are now subject to the procedures and requirements set forth in Section 1009 of the Company Guide. As required by the NYSE Notice, on June 21, 2024, we submitted a plan, or the Plan, to NYSE American advising of actions we have taken or will take to regain compliance with the continued listing standards by November 23, 2025. On July 23, 2024, NYSE American accepted the Plan, and accordingly, we have a cure period until November 23, 2025 to comply with the Plan and will be subject to periodic reviews including quarterly monitoring for compliance with the Plan. The NYSE Notice and implementation of the Plan have no immediate effect on the listing or trading of our shares of Common Stock on NYSE American. There can be no assurance that we will ultimately regain compliance with all applicable NYSE American listing standards.

 

If we are unable to regain compliance with all applicable NYSE American listing standards, our shares of Common Stock would be subject to delisting. If the NYSE American delists our shares of Common Stock, investors may face material adverse consequences, including, but not limited to, a lack of trading market for our shares of Common Stock, reduced liquidity and market price of our shares of Common Stock, decreased analyst coverage of our shares of Common Stock, and an inability for us to obtain any additional financing to fund our operations that we may need.

 

If our shares of Common Stock are delisted, they may be subject to the so-called “penny stock” rules. The SEC has adopted regulations that define a penny stock to be any equity security that has a market price per share of less than $5.00, subject to certain exceptions, such as any securities listed on a national securities exchange. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules impose additional sales practice requirements and burdens on broker-dealers (subject to certain exceptions) and could discourage broker-dealers from effecting transactions in our stock, further limiting the liquidity of our shares, and an investor may find it more difficult to acquire or dispose of the shares of Common Stock on the secondary market. These factors could have a material adverse effect on the trading price, liquidity, value and marketability of our shares of Common Stock. 

 

Item 5. Other Information

 

On August 11, 2024, Mr. Assaf Oron, our Chief Business Officer, or CBO, notified us that he will be stepping down as CBO on October 31, 2024.

SIXTH: This Article Sixth shall apply during the period commencing upon the filing of this Certificate of Incorporation and terminating upon the consummation of any “Business Combination” (as defined below). A “Business Combination” shall mean any merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or other similar business combination involving the Corporation and one or more businesses or entities (“Target Business”), or entering into contractual arrangements that give the Corporation control over such a Target Business, and, if the Corporation is then listed on a national securities exchange, the Target Business has a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the balance in the Trust Fund (defined below), less any taxes payable on interest earned, at the time of signing a definitive agreement in connection with the initial Business Combination. “IPO Shares” shall mean the shares sold pursuant to the registration statement on Form S-1 (“Registration Statement”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“Commission”) in connection with the Corporation’s initial public offering (“IPO”). The “fair market value” for purposes of this Article Sixth will be determined by the Board of Directors of the Corporation based upon one or more standards generally accepted by the financial community (such as actual and potential sales, earnings, cash flow and/or book value). If the Board of Directors is unable to independently determine the fair market value of the Target Business, the Corporation will obtain an opinion from an independent investment banking firm, or another independent entity that commonly renders valuation opinions, with respect to the satisfaction of such criteria.

 

A. Prior to the consummation of a Business Combination, the Corporation shall either (i) submit any Business Combination to its holders of Common Stock for approval (“Proxy Solicitation”) pursuant to the proxy rules promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”), or (ii) provide its holders of IPO Shares with the opportunity to sell their shares to the Corporation by means of a tender offer (“Tender Offer”).

 

B. If the Corporation engages in a Proxy Solicitation with respect to a Business Combination, the Corporation will consummate the Business Combination only if a majority of the then outstanding shares of Common Stock present and entitled to vote at the meeting to approve the Business Combination are voted for the approval of such Business Combination.

 

C. In the event that a Business Combination is consummated by the Corporation or the Corporation holds a vote of its stockholders to amend its Certificate of Incorporation, any holder of IPO Shares who (i) voted on the proposal to approve such Business Combination or amend the Certificate of Incorporation, whether such holder voted in favor or against such Business Combination or amendment, and followed the procedures contained in the proxy materials to perfect the holder’s right to convert the holder’s IPO Shares into cash, if any, or (ii) tendered the holder’s IPO Shares as specified in the tender offer materials therefore, shall be entitled to receive the Conversion Price (as defined below) in exchange for the holder’s IPO Shares. The Corporation shall, promptly after consummation of the Business Combination or the filing of the amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, convert such shares into cash at a per share price equal to the quotient determined by dividing (i) the amount then held in the Trust Fund (as defined below) less any income taxes owed on such funds but not yet paid, calculated as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Business Combination or the filing of the amendment, as applicable, by (ii) the total number of IPO Shares then outstanding (such price being referred to as the “Conversion Price”). “Trust Fund” shall mean the trust account established by the Corporation at the consummation of its IPO and into which the amount specified in Registration Statement is deposited. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a holder of IPO Shares, together with any affiliate of his or any other person with whom he is acting in concert or as a “group” (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) (“Group”) with, will be restricted from demanding conversion in connection with a proposed Business Combination with respect to 20.0% or more of the IPO Shares. Accordingly, all IPO Shares beneficially owned by such holder or any other person with whom such holder is acting in concert or as a Group with in excess of 20.0% or more of the IPO Shares will remain outstanding following consummation of such Business Combination in the name of the stockholder and not be converted.

 

D. The Corporation will not consummate any Business Combination unless it has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 upon consummation of such Business Combination.

 

2

 

 

E. In the event that the Corporation does not consummate a Business Combination by 24 months from the consummation of the IPO (such date being referred to as the “Termination Date”), the Corporation shall (i) cease all operations except for the purposes of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter redeem 100% of the IPO Shares for cash for a redemption price per share as described below (which redemption will completely extinguish such holders’ rights as stockholders, including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to approval of the Corporation’s then stockholders and subject to the requirements of the GCL, including the adoption of a resolution by the Board of Directors pursuant to Section 275(a) of the GCL finding the dissolution of the Corporation advisable and the provision of such notices as are required by said Section 275(a) of the GCL, dissolve and liquidate the balance of the Corporation’s net assets to its remaining stockholders, as part of the Corporation’s plan of dissolution and liquidation, subject (in the case of (ii) and (iii) above) to the Corporation’s obligations under the GCL to provide for claims of creditors and other requirements of applicable law. In such event, the per-share redemption price shall be equal to a pro rata share of the Trust Account plus any pro rata interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Corporation for its working capital requirements or necessary to pay its taxes divided by the total number of IPO Shares then outstanding.

 

F. A holder of IPO Shares shall only be entitled to receive distributions from the Trust Fund in the event (i) he demands conversion of his shares in accordance with paragraph C above or (ii) that the Corporation has not consummated a Business Combination by the Termination Date as described in paragraph E above. In no other circumstances shall a holder of IPO Shares have any right or interest of any kind in or to the Trust Fund.

 

G. Prior to a Business Combination, the Board of Directors may not issue (i) any shares of Common Stock or any securities convertible into Common Stock; or (ii) any securities which participate in or are otherwise entitled in any manner to any of the proceeds in the Trust Fund or which vote as a class with the Common Stock on a Business Combination.

 

SEVENTH:3 The following provisions are inserted for the management of the business and for the conduct of the affairs of the Corporation, and for further definition, limitation and regulation of the powers of the Corporation and of its directors and stockholders:

 

A. Election of directors need not be by ballot unless the by-laws of the Corporation so provide.

 

B. The Board of Directors shall have the power, without the assent or vote of the stockholders, to make, alter, amend, change, add to or repeal the by-laws of the Corporation as provided in the by-laws of the Corporation.

 

C. The directors in their discretion may submit any contract or act for approval or ratification at any annual meeting of the stockholders or at any meeting of the stockholders called for the purpose of considering any such act or contract, and any contract or act that shall be approved or be ratified by the vote of the holders of a majority of the stock of the Corporation which is represented in person or by proxy at such meeting and entitled to vote thereat (provided that a lawful quorum of stockholders be there represented in person or by proxy) shall be as valid and binding upon the Corporation and upon all the stockholders as though it had been approved or ratified by every stockholder of the Corporation, whether or not the contract or act would otherwise be open to legal attack because of directors’ interests, or for any other reason.

 

D. In addition to the powers and authorities hereinbefore or by statute expressly conferred upon them, the directors are hereby empowered to exercise all such powers and do all such acts and things as may be exercised or done by the Corporation; subject, nevertheless, to the provisions of the statutes of Delaware, of this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, and to any bylaws from time to time made by the stockholders; provided, however, that no bylaw so made shall invalidate any prior act of the directors which would have been valid if such bylaws had not been made.

 

 

 

3This provision has been revised to reflect changes effectuated by the Certificate of Amendment filed October 28, 2019.

 

3

 

 

E. The Board of Directors shall be divided into three classes: Class I, Class II and Class III. The number of directors in each class shall be fixed exclusively by the Board of Directors and shall be as nearly equal as possible. Following the filing of the amendment to the certificate of incorporation including this provision, the entire Board of Directors will be elected at the first Annual Meeting of Stockholders. At such first Annual Meeting of Stockholders, the directors in Class I shall be elected for a term expiring at the second Annual Meeting of Stockholders, the directors in Class II shall be elected for a term expiring at the third Annual Meeting of Stockholders and the directors in Class III shall be elected for a term expiring at the fourth Annual Meeting of Stockholders. Commencing at the second Annual Meeting of Stockholders following the filing of the amendment to the certificate of incorporation including this provision, and at each annual meeting thereafter, directors elected to succeed those directors whose terms expire shall be elected for a term of office to expire at the third succeeding annual meeting of stockholders after their election. Except as the GCL may otherwise require, in the interim between annual meetings of stockholders or special meetings of stockholders called for the election of directors and/or the removal of one or more directors and the filling of any vacancy in that connection, newly created directorships and any vacancies in the Board of Directors, including unfilled vacancies resulting from the removal of directors for cause, may be filled only by the vote of a majority of the remaining directors then in office, although less than a quorum (as defined in the Corporation’s bylaws), or by the sole remaining director. All directors shall hold office until the expiration of their respective terms of office and until their successors shall have been elected and qualified. A director elected to fill a vacancy resulting from the death, resignation or removal of a director shall serve for the remainder of the full term of the director whose death, resignation or removal shall have created such vacancy and until his successor shall have been elected and qualified.

 

EIGHTH:

 

A. A director of the Corporation shall not be personally liable to the Corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability (i) for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the Corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) under Section 174 of the GCL, or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. If the GCL is amended to authorize corporate action further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of directors, then the liability of a director of the Corporation shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the GCL, as so amended. Any repeal or modification of this paragraph A by the stockholders of the Corporation shall not adversely affect any right or protection of a director of the Corporation with respect to events occurring prior to the time of such repeal or modification.

 

B. The Corporation, to the full extent permitted by Section 145 of the GCL, as amended from time to time, shall indemnify all persons whom it may indemnify pursuant thereto. Expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by an officer or director in defending any civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative action, suit or proceeding for which such officer or director may be entitled to indemnification hereunder shall be paid by the Corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such director or officer to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that he is not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation as authorized hereby.

 

C. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article Eighth, no indemnification nor advancement of expenses will extend to any claims made by the Company’s officers and directors to cover any loss that such individuals may sustain as a result of such individuals’ agreement to pay debts and obligations to target businesses or vendors or other entities that are owed money by the Corporation for services rendered or contracted for or products sold to the Corporation, as described in the Registration Statement.

 

NINTH: Whenever a compromise or arrangement is proposed between this Corporation and its creditors or any class of them and/or between this Corporation and its stockholders or any class of them, any court of equitable jurisdiction within the State of Delaware may, on the application in a summary way of this Corporation or of any creditor or stockholder thereof or on the application of any receiver or receivers appointed for this Corporation under Section 291 of Title 8 of the Delaware Code or on the application of trustees in dissolution or of any receiver or receivers appointed for this Corporation under Section 279 of Title 8 of the Delaware Code order a meeting of the creditors or class of creditors, and/or of the stockholders or class of stockholders of this Corporation, as the case may be, to be summoned in such manner as the said court directs. If a majority in number representing three fourths in value of the creditors or class of creditors, and/or of the stockholders or class of stockholders of this Corporation, as the case may be, agree to any compromise or arrangement and to any reorganization of this Corporation as a consequence of such compromise or arrangement, the said compromise or arrangement and the said reorganization shall, if sanctioned by the court to which the said application has been made, be binding on all the creditors or class of creditors, and/or on all the stockholders or class of stockholders, of this Corporation, as the case may be, and also on this Corporation.

SIXTH: This Article Sixth shall apply during the period commencing upon the filing of this Certificate of Incorporation and terminating upon the consummation of any “Business Combination” (as defined below). A “Business Combination” shall mean any merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or other similar business combination involving the Corporation and one or more businesses or entities (“Target Business”), or entering into contractual arrangements that give the Corporation control over such a Target Business, and, if the Corporation is then listed on a national securities exchange, the Target Business has a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the balance in the Trust Fund (defined below), less any taxes payable on interest earned, at the time of signing a definitive agreement in connection with the initial Business Combination. “IPO Shares” shall mean the shares sold pursuant to the registration statement on Form S-1 (“Registration Statement”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“Commission”) in connection with the Corporation’s initial public offering (“IPO”). The “fair market value” for purposes of this Article Sixth will be determined by the Board of Directors of the Corporation based upon one or more standards generally accepted by the financial community (such as actual and potential sales, earnings, cash flow and/or book value). If the Board of Directors is unable to independently determine the fair market value of the Target Business, the Corporation will obtain an opinion from an independent investment banking firm, or another independent entity that commonly renders valuation opinions, with respect to the satisfaction of such criteria.

 

A. Prior to the consummation of a Business Combination, the Corporation shall either (i) submit any Business Combination to its holders of Common Stock for approval (“Proxy Solicitation”) pursuant to the proxy rules promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”), or (ii) provide its holders of IPO Shares with the opportunity to sell their shares to the Corporation by means of a tender offer (“Tender Offer”).

 

B. If the Corporation engages in a Proxy Solicitation with respect to a Business Combination, the Corporation will consummate the Business Combination only if a majority of the then outstanding shares of Common Stock present and entitled to vote at the meeting to approve the Business Combination are voted for the approval of such Business Combination.

 

C. In the event that a Business Combination is consummated by the Corporation or the Corporation holds a vote of its stockholders to amend its Certificate of Incorporation, any holder of IPO Shares who (i) voted on the proposal to approve such Business Combination or amend the Certificate of Incorporation, whether such holder voted in favor or against such Business Combination or amendment, and followed the procedures contained in the proxy materials to perfect the holder’s right to convert the holder’s IPO Shares into cash, if any, or (ii) tendered the holder’s IPO Shares as specified in the tender offer materials therefore, shall be entitled to receive the Conversion Price (as defined below) in exchange for the holder’s IPO Shares. The Corporation shall, promptly after consummation of the Business Combination or the filing of the amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, convert such shares into cash at a per share price equal to the quotient determined by dividing (i) the amount then held in the Trust Fund (as defined below) less any income taxes owed on such funds but not yet paid, calculated as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Business Combination or the filing of the amendment, as applicable, by (ii) the total number of IPO Shares then outstanding (such price being referred to as the “Conversion Price”). “Trust Fund” shall mean the trust account established by the Corporation at the consummation of its IPO and into which the amount specified in Registration Statement is deposited. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a holder of IPO Shares, together with any affiliate of his or any other person with whom he is acting in concert or as a “group” (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) (“Group”) with, will be restricted from demanding conversion in connection with a proposed Business Combination with respect to 20.0% or more of the IPO Shares. Accordingly, all IPO Shares beneficially owned by such holder or any other person with whom such holder is acting in concert or as a Group with in excess of 20.0% or more of the IPO Shares will remain outstanding following consummation of such Business Combination in the name of the stockholder and not be converted.

 

D. The Corporation will not consummate any Business Combination unless it has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 upon consummation of such Business Combination.

 

2

 

 

E. In the event that the Corporation does not consummate a Business Combination by 24 months from the consummation of the IPO (such date being referred to as the “Termination Date”), the Corporation shall (i) cease all operations except for the purposes of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter redeem 100% of the IPO Shares for cash for a redemption price per share as described below (which redemption will completely extinguish such holders’ rights as stockholders, including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to approval of the Corporation’s then stockholders and subject to the requirements of the GCL, including the adoption of a resolution by the Board of Directors pursuant to Section 275(a) of the GCL finding the dissolution of the Corporation advisable and the provision of such notices as are required by said Section 275(a) of the GCL, dissolve and liquidate the balance of the Corporation’s net assets to its remaining stockholders, as part of the Corporation’s plan of dissolution and liquidation, subject (in the case of (ii) and (iii) above) to the Corporation’s obligations under the GCL to provide for claims of creditors and other requirements of applicable law. In such event, the per-share redemption price shall be equal to a pro rata share of the Trust Account plus any pro rata interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Corporation for its working capital requirements or necessary to pay its taxes divided by the total number of IPO Shares then outstanding.

 

F. A holder of IPO Shares shall only be entitled to receive distributions from the Trust Fund in the event (i) he demands conversion of his shares in accordance with paragraph C above or (ii) that the Corporation has not consummated a Business Combination by the Termination Date as described in paragraph E above. In no other circumstances shall a holder of IPO Shares have any right or interest of any kind in or to the Trust Fund.

 

G. Prior to a Business Combination, the Board of Directors may not issue (i) any shares of Common Stock or any securities convertible into Common Stock; or (ii) any securities which participate in or are otherwise entitled in any manner to any of the proceeds in the Trust Fund or which vote as a class with the Common Stock on a Business Combination.

 

SEVENTH:3 The following provisions are inserted for the management of the business and for the conduct of the affairs of the Corporation, and for further definition, limitation and regulation of the powers of the Corporation and of its directors and stockholders:

 

A. Election of directors need not be by ballot unless the by-laws of the Corporation so provide.

 

B. The Board of Directors shall have the power, without the assent or vote of the stockholders, to make, alter, amend, change, add to or repeal the by-laws of the Corporation as provided in the by-laws of the Corporation.

 

C. The directors in their discretion may submit any contract or act for approval or ratification at any annual meeting of the stockholders or at any meeting of the stockholders called for the purpose of considering any such act or contract, and any contract or act that shall be approved or be ratified by the vote of the holders of a majority of the stock of the Corporation which is represented in person or by proxy at such meeting and entitled to vote thereat (provided that a lawful quorum of stockholders be there represented in person or by proxy) shall be as valid and binding upon the Corporation and upon all the stockholders as though it had been approved or ratified by every stockholder of the Corporation, whether or not the contract or act would otherwise be open to legal attack because of directors’ interests, or for any other reason.

 

D. In addition to the powers and authorities hereinbefore or by statute expressly conferred upon them, the directors are hereby empowered to exercise all such powers and do all such acts and things as may be exercised or done by the Corporation; subject, nevertheless, to the provisions of the statutes of Delaware, of this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, and to any bylaws from time to time made by the stockholders; provided, however, that no bylaw so made shall invalidate any prior act of the directors which would have been valid if such bylaws had not been made.

 

 

 

3This provision has been revised to reflect changes effectuated by the Certificate of Amendment filed October 28, 2019.

 

3

 

 

E. The Board of Directors shall be divided into three classes: Class I, Class II and Class III. The number of directors in each class shall be fixed exclusively by the Board of Directors and shall be as nearly equal as possible. Following the filing of the amendment to the certificate of incorporation including this provision, the entire Board of Directors will be elected at the first Annual Meeting of Stockholders. At such first Annual Meeting of Stockholders, the directors in Class I shall be elected for a term expiring at the second Annual Meeting of Stockholders, the directors in Class II shall be elected for a term expiring at the third Annual Meeting of Stockholders and the directors in Class III shall be elected for a term expiring at the fourth Annual Meeting of Stockholders. Commencing at the second Annual Meeting of Stockholders following the filing of the amendment to the certificate of incorporation including this provision, and at each annual meeting thereafter, directors elected to succeed those directors whose terms expire shall be elected for a term of office to expire at the third succeeding annual meeting of stockholders after their election. Except as the GCL may otherwise require, in the interim between annual meetings of stockholders or special meetings of stockholders called for the election of directors and/or the removal of one or more directors and the filling of any vacancy in that connection, newly created directorships and any vacancies in the Board of Directors, including unfilled vacancies resulting from the removal of directors for cause, may be filled only by the vote of a majority of the remaining directors then in office, although less than a quorum (as defined in the Corporation’s bylaws), or by the sole remaining director. All directors shall hold office until the expiration of their respective terms of office and until their successors shall have been elected and qualified. A director elected to fill a vacancy resulting from the death, resignation or removal of a director shall serve for the remainder of the full term of the director whose death, resignation or removal shall have created such vacancy and until his successor shall have been elected and qualified.

 

EIGHTH:

 

A. A director of the Corporation shall not be personally liable to the Corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability (i) for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the Corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) under Section 174 of the GCL, or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. If the GCL is amended to authorize corporate action further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of directors, then the liability of a director of the Corporation shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the GCL, as so amended. Any repeal or modification of this paragraph A by the stockholders of the Corporation shall not adversely affect any right or protection of a director of the Corporation with respect to events occurring prior to the time of such repeal or modification.

 

B. The Corporation, to the full extent permitted by Section 145 of the GCL, as amended from time to time, shall indemnify all persons whom it may indemnify pursuant thereto. Expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by an officer or director in defending any civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative action, suit or proceeding for which such officer or director may be entitled to indemnification hereunder shall be paid by the Corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such director or officer to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that he is not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation as authorized hereby.

 

C. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article Eighth, no indemnification nor advancement of expenses will extend to any claims made by the Company’s officers and directors to cover any loss that such individuals may sustain as a result of such individuals’ agreement to pay debts and obligations to target businesses or vendors or other entities that are owed money by the Corporation for services rendered or contracted for or products sold to the Corporation, as described in the Registration Statement.

 

NINTH: Whenever a compromise or arrangement is proposed between this Corporation and its creditors or any class of them and/or between this Corporation and its stockholders or any class of them, any court of equitable jurisdiction within the State of Delaware may, on the application in a summary way of this Corporation or of any creditor or stockholder thereof or on the application of any receiver or receivers appointed for this Corporation under Section 291 of Title 8 of the Delaware Code or on the application of trustees in dissolution or of any receiver or receivers appointed for this Corporation under Section 279 of Title 8 of the Delaware Code order a meeting of the creditors or class of creditors, and/or of the stockholders or class of stockholders of this Corporation, as the case may be, to be summoned in such manner as the said court directs. If a majority in number representing three fourths in value of the creditors or class of creditors, and/or of the stockholders or class of stockholders of this Corporation, as the case may be, agree to any compromise or arrangement and to any reorganization of this Corporation as a consequence of such compromise or arrangement, the said compromise or arrangement and the said reorganization shall, if sanctioned by the court to which the said application has been made, be binding on all the creditors or class of creditors, and/or on all the stockholders or class of stockholders, of this Corporation, as the case may be, and also on this Corporation.

NOTE 1 – GENERAL

 

  A. General information

 

BiomX Inc. (individually, and together with its subsidiaries, BiomX Ltd. (“BiomX Israel”), RondinX Ltd. and Adaptive Phage Therapeutics LLC, (“APT”), the “Company” or “BiomX”) was incorporated in 2017. The Company’s shares of Common Stock and units are traded on the NYSE American under the symbols PHGE and PHGE.U, respectively. Certain warrants are currently quoted on OTC Pink under the symbol “PHGEW”.

  

BiomX is developing both natural and engineered phage cocktails designed to target and destroy harmful bacteria in chronic diseases, focusing its efforts, at this point, on cystic fibrosis and on diabetic foot osteomyelitis. BiomX discovers and validates proprietary bacterial targets and customizes phage compositions against these targets. The Company’s headquarters are located in Ness Ziona, Israel.

 

On March 6, 2024, the Company entered into an agreement and plan of merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with APT and certain other parties, as a result of which APT became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Acquisition”), as further described below. Additionally, on March 15, 2024, concurrently with the consummation of the Acquisition, the Company consummated a private placement (the “March 2024 PIPE”) with certain investors pursuant to which such investors purchased an aggregate of 216,417 shares of the Company’s Series X non-voting convertible preferred share, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares”), with each share of Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares being convertible into 1,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, and warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”) to purchase up to an aggregate of 108,208,500 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $50,000. See Note 1D for further information regarding the Acquisition.

 

  B. Israel-Hamas war

 

On October 7, 2023, an unprecedented attack was launched against Israel by terrorists from the Hamas terrorist organization that infiltrated Israel’s southern border from the Gaza Strip and in other areas within the state of Israel attacking civilians and military targets while simultaneously launching extensive rocket attacks on the Israeli population. These attacks resulted in extensive deaths, injuries and kidnapping of civilians and soldiers. In response, the Security Cabinet of the State of Israel declared war against Hamas and a military campaign against these terrorist organizations commenced in parallel to their continued rocket and terror attacks. In addition, Hezbollah, an Islamist terrorist group that controls large portions of southern Lebanon, has attacked military and civilian targets in Northern Israel, to which Israel has responded.

 

To date, the State of Israel continues to be at war with Hamas and in an armed conflict with Hezbollah.

 

BiomX headquarters and principal offices and most of its operations are located in the State of Israel. In addition, most of the key employees and officers are residents of Israel. Accordingly, political, economic and military conditions in Israel and the surrounding region may directly affect its business.

 

While a few employees of the Company were called to reserve duty in the Israel Defense Forces, the ongoing war with Hamas has not, since its inception, materially impacted BiomX’s business or operations. Furthermore, BiomX does not expect any delays to its programs as a result of the situation. However, at this time, it is not possible to predict the intensity or duration of Israel’s war against Hamas, nor predict how this war will ultimately affect BiomX business and operations or Israel’s economy in general.

 

  C. Going concern

 

As of June 30, 2024, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $175,826 and has incurred significant losses and negative cash flows from operations. These are expected to continue in the foreseeable future. The Company plans to continue to fund its ongoing operations, as well as other development activities relating to additional product candidates, through issuances of debt and/or equity securities, loans, and government grants. Management believes current funds will be sufficient to fund its operations into the fourth quarter of 2025. However, increased research and development, clinical, or operating expenses may require additional funding or expense postponement. The Company’s ability to raise capital is subject to market conditions and other aspects, which may affect the terms and availability of such funding. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis and do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of such circumstances.

 

  D. Merger Agreement

 

On March 6, 2024, the Company, entered into the Merger Agreement with BTX Merger Sub I, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“First Merger Sub”), BTX Merger Sub II, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Second Merger Sub”), and APT. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, First Merger Sub merged with and into APT, with APT being the surviving corporation and becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “First Merger”). Immediately following the First Merger, APT merged with and into Second Merger Sub, pursuant to which Second Merger Sub was the surviving entity. APT was a U.S.-based privately held, clinical-stage biotechnology company pioneering the development of phage-based therapies to combat bacterial infection. As a result of the Acquisition, the Company is expected to have a pipeline that includes two Phase 2 assets each aimed at treating serious infections with unmet medical needs.

 

On March 15, 2024, the effective date of the Acquisition (the “Closing Date”), APT’s former stockholders were issued an aggregate of 9,164,968 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, 40,470 Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares and Warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 2,166,497 shares of the Company Common Stock (“Merger Warrants”). Each share of Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares is convertible into an aggregate of 1,000 shares of Common Stock. The Merger Warrants will be exercisable at any time after the date of the receipt of BiomX stockholder approval at an exercise price of $5.00 per share and will expire on January 28, 2027. In the event the Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares are not converted by the earlier to occur of (i) the time that meeting of BiomX stockholders is ultimately concluded or (ii) five months after the initial issuance of the Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares, the Company may be required to pay to each holder of the Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares an amount in cash equal to the fair value of the Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares. See Note 13a for further information regarding the stockholders’ approval of conversion of the Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares into shares of Common Stock and the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of the Merger Warrants subsequent to the financial statements date.

 

The Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares are entitled to receive dividends on shares of the Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares equal to, on an as-if-converted-to Common-Stock basis, and in the same form as, dividends actually paid on shares of the Common Stock. Except as otherwise required by law or with respect to the Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares protective provisions set forth in the Company’s Certificate of Designations, the Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares does not have voting rights.

 

At the Closing Date, the Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares were classified as temporary equity in accordance with the provisions of ASC 480-10-S99, as they included clauses that could constitute redemption clauses that were subject to the Company’s stockholder approval and outside of the Company’s control. On June 17, 2024, the Company filed a definitive Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A with respect to a meeting of stockholders to approve, among other things, the conversion of the Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares into shares of Common Stock. In addition, the majority of the Company’s stockholders signed a binding support agreement that contained their commitment to vote in favor or deliver a written consent regarding any stockholders’ matter in the stockholders’ meeting which took place on July 9, 2024. These circumstances led the Company to determine that the Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares meet the definition of permanent equity as the Company is able to control the redemption. Therefore, as of June 30, 2024, the Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares were reclassified as equity. See Note 13a for further information regarding the Company’s stockholders meeting.

The Merger Warrants are classified as equity, as they are indexed to the Company’s own shares and meet the classification requirements for stockholders’ equity classification under ASC 815-40.

 

Concurrently with the consummation of the Acquisition, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with certain investors, for aggregate gross proceeds of $50,000. See Note 10A for further information.

 

Immediately following the Acquisition, and without taking into account the PIPE Preferred Shares and the Private Placement Warrants as defined and described in Note 10A, the Company’s stockholders prior to the Acquisition owned approximately 55% of the Company and APT’s stockholders prior to the Acquisition owned approximately 45% of the Company on a diluted basis.

 

The Acquisition was accounted for in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 805, “Business Combinations,” using the acquisition method of accounting. The Company was identified as the accounting acquirer, based on the evaluation of the following facts and circumstances:

 

●Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the post- Acquisition board of directors of the Company consisted of seven directors, out of which the Company designated four board seats, with the Company’s chair of the board prior to the Acquisition continuing in his position, i.e. the majority of the post-closing board was designated by the Company.

 

●The Chief Executive Officer and the majority of management roles are held by individuals who were affiliated with the Company prior to the Acquisition.

 

The Acquisition-related transaction costs are accounted for as expenses in the period in which the costs are incurred. The Company incurred transaction costs of $874 and $133 during the six and three months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, which were included in general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

 

Purchase Price Allocation

 

The following sets forth the fair value of acquired identifiable assets and assumed liabilities of APT which includes adjustments to reflect the fair value of intangible assets acquired as of March 15, 2024:

 

   Amounts 
Cash and cash equivalents   509 
Restricted cash   154 
Other current assets   1,780 
Property, plant and equipment   3,748 
Operating lease right-of-use asset   7,953 
IPR&D assets and Goodwill   15,788 
Total assets   29,932 
      
Trade accounts payable   (3,667)
Other accounts payable   (2,595)
Operating lease liability   (7,819)
Total liabilities   (14,081)
Total consideration   15,851 

 

The following table summarizes the fair value of the consideration transferred to APT shareholders for the Acquisition:

 

   Amounts 
Common Stock   3,041 
Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares   12,610 
Merger Warrants   200 
    15,851 

 

The fair value of shares of Common Stock issued by the Company was determined using the Company’s closing trading price on the Closing Date adjusted by a discount for lack of marketability (“DLOM”) of 9.4% as a registration statement was filed within 45 days. The fair value of Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares was determined using the Company’s closing trading price on the Closing Date adjusted by a DLOM of 14.9% as the conversion of the Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares to shares of Common Stock was subject to the stockholder approval, which was obtained on July 9, 2024. The Company determined the fair value of the Merger Warrants using the Black-Scholes model as of the Closing Date. The main assumptions used are as follows:

 

Underlying value of Common Stock ($)   0.37 
Exercise price ($)   5.0 
Expected volatility (%)   117.7 
Expected terms (years)   2.87 
Risk-free interest rate (%)   4.5 

 

The fair value estimate for all identifiable assets and liabilities assumed is preliminary and is based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset, based on the most advantageous market for the asset (i.e., its highest and best use). This preliminary fair value estimate could include assets that are not intended to be used, may be sold, or are intended to be used in a manner other than their best use. Such estimates are subject to change during the measurement period, which is not expected to exceed one year. Any adjustments identified during the measurement period will be recognized in the period in which the adjustments are determined.

 

The Company recognized intangible assets related to the Acquisition, which consist of IPR&D valued at $15,287 using the Multi-Period Excess Earnings Method valuation method and of goodwill valued at $501. The goodwill is primarily attributed to the expected synergies from combining the operations of APT with the Company’s operations and to the assembled workforce of APT. The IPR&D is considered indefinite lived until the completion or abandonment of the associated research and development efforts. Upon successful completion of the project, IPR&D assets are reclassified to developed technology and amortized over their estimated useful lives.

 

These intangible assets are classified as Level 3 measurements within the fair value hierarchy.

 

The actual APT net loss included in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2024, is as follows:

 

   June 30,
2024		 
Net loss attributable to APT   3,624

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

A.Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for condensed financial information. They do not include all the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair statement have been included (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments except as otherwise discussed).

 

The financial information contained in this report should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, that the Company filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on April 4, 2024. The year-end balance sheet data was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2023.

 

B.Principles of Consolidation

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.

 

C.Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the amounts of expenses during the reported years. The most significant estimates in the Company’s financial statements relate to accruals for research and development expenses, valuation of stock-based compensation awards, purchase price allocation related to the Acquisition and the Private Placement Warrants fair value revaluation. These estimates and assumptions are based on current facts, future expectations, and various other factors believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the recording of expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ materially and adversely from these estimates.

 

The full extent to which the Israel-Hamas war may directly or indirectly impact the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition will depend on future developments that are uncertain, as well as the economic impact on local, regional, national and international markets.

 

D.Business Combination

 

The Company allocates the fair value of consideration transferred in a business combination to the assets acquired, liabilities assumed based on their fair values at the acquisition date. Acquisition-related expenses are recognized separately from the business combination and are expensed as incurred. The excess of the fair value of the consideration transferred over the fair value of the assets acquired, liabilities assumed in the acquired business is recorded as goodwill. The fair value of the consideration transferred included equity securities. The allocation of the consideration transferred in certain cases may be subject to revision based on the final determination of fair values during the measurement period, which may be up to one year from the acquisition date. The cumulative impact of revisions during the measurement period is recognized in the reporting period in which the revisions are identified. The Company includes the results of operations of the businesses that it has acquired in its consolidated results prospectively from the respective dates of Acquisition.

 

E.Financial instruments

 

When the Company issues freestanding instruments, it first analyzes the provisions of ASC 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities From Equity” (“ASC 480”) in order to determine whether the instrument should be classified as a liability, with subsequent changes in fair value recognized in the consolidated statements of operations in each period. If the instrument is not within the scope of ASC 480, the Company further analyzes the provisions of ASC 815-10 in order to determine whether the instrument is considered indexed to the entity’s own stock and qualifies for classification within equity.

 

When the Company issues preferred shares, it first considers the provisions of ASC 480, in order to determine whether the preferred shares should be classified as a liability. If the instrument is not within the scope of ASC 480, the Company further analyzes the instrument’s characteristics in order to determine whether it should be classified within temporary equity (mezzanine) or within permanent equity in accordance with the provisions of ASC 480-10-S99. The Company reassesses the classification of a contract over its own equity under the guidance above at each balance sheet date. If classification changes as a result of events during the reporting period, the Company reclassifies the contract as of the date of the event that caused the reclassification. See Note 1D regarding the reclassification of the Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares.

 

When the Company issues warrants, it first considers the provisions of ASC 815-40, “Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity” (“ASC 815-40”) in order to determine whether the warrants should be classified as equity. Equity classification is permitted when warrants are indexed to the Company’s own shares and meet the classification requirements for stockholders’ equity classification under ASC 815-40. If the warrants are not within the scope of ASC 815-40, the Company accounts for the warrants in accordance with the guidance contained in Accounting Standards Codification 815 (“ASC 815”), “Derivatives and Hedging”, under which the warrants do not meet the criteria for equity treatment and must be recorded as derivative liabilities. Accordingly, the Company classifies the Private Placement Warrants as liabilities at their fair value and adjusts the warrants to fair value at each reporting period. This liability is subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date until the warrants are exercised or expire, and any change in fair value is recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. See Note 10A for further information regarding the Private Placement Warrants.

 

F.Basic and diluted loss (earnings) per share

 

Basic loss (earnings) per share is computed by dividing net loss (income) by the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding during the period, fully vested warrants with no exercise price for the Company’s Common Stock and fully vested Pre-Funded Warrants for the Company’s Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.001 per share, as the Company considers these shares to be exercised for little to no additional consideration. The calculation excludes shares of Common Stock purchased by the Company and held as treasury shares. Diluted loss (income) per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding during the period, plus the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been outstanding if all potentially dilutive shares of Common Stock had been issued, using the treasury stock method, in accordance with ASC 260-10, “Earnings per Share.”

 

The Company computes net loss (income) per share using the two-class method required for participating securities. The two-class method requires income available to common stockholders for the period to be allocated between shares of Common Stock and participating securities based upon their respective rights to receive dividends as if all income for the period had been distributed. The Company considers its Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares to be participating securities as the holders of the Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares would be entitled to dividends that would be distributed to the holders of Common Stock, on a pro-rata basis assuming conversion of all Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares into shares of Common Stock. These participating securities do not contractually require the holders of such shares to participate in the Company’s losses. As such, net loss for the periods presented was not allocated to the Company’s participating securities.

 

G.Intangible Assets

 

Goodwill

 

Goodwill reflects the excess of the consideration transferred at the business combination date over the fair values of the identifiable net assets acquired. Goodwill is an asset representing the future economic benefits arising from other assets acquired in a business combination that are not individually identified and separately recognized. The primary items that generate goodwill include the value of the synergies between the acquired company and the Company and the acquired assembled workforce, neither of which qualifies for recognition as an intangible asset. ASC 350, “Intangibles—Goodwill and Other” allows an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether a quantitative goodwill impairment test is necessary. Further testing is only required if the entity determines, based on the qualitative assessment, that it is more likely than not that the fair value is less than its carrying amount. Otherwise, no further impairment testing is required.

 

The Company’s goodwill is tested for impairment at least on an annual basis, on the last day of the fourth quarter of the fiscal year and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of a reporting unit may not be recoverable. When necessary, the Company records charges for impairments of goodwill for the amount by which the carrying amount of the respective reporting unit exceeds its fair value. However, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit.

 

Intangible assets

 

IPR&D assets acquired in a business combination are recognized at fair value as of the acquisition date and subsequently accounted for as indefinite-lived intangible assets until completion or abandonment of the associated R&D efforts. Indefinite-lived intangible assets are reviewed for impairment at least annually or whenever there is an indication that the asset may be impaired. 

 

H.Recent Accounting Standards

 

Recently issued accounting pronouncements, not yet adopted

 

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09 “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures” (“ASU 2023-09”). This guidance is intended to enhance the transparency and decision-usefulness of income tax disclosures. The amendments in ASU 2023-09 address investor requests for enhanced income tax information primarily through changes to disclosure regarding rate reconciliation and income taxes paid both in the U.S. and in foreign jurisdictions. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 on a prospective basis, with the option to apply the standard retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance to determine the impact it may have on its consolidated financial statements disclosures.

 

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-07 “Segment Reporting: Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures” (“ASU 2023-07”). This guidance expands public entities’ segment disclosures primarily by requiring disclosure of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss, an amount and description of its composition for other segment items, and interim disclosures of a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets that are currently required annually. Public entities with a single reportable segment are required to provide the new disclosures and all the disclosures required under ASC 280, “Segment Reporting”. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The amendments are required to be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in an entity’s financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance to determine the impact it may have on its consolidated financial statements disclosures.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments [Abstract]  
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

NOTE 3 – FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

 

The Company accounts for financial instruments in accordance with ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC 820”). ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC 820 are described below:

 

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2 – Quoted prices in non-active markets or in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, observable inputs other than quoted prices, and inputs that are not directly observable but are corroborated by observable market data.

 

Level 3 – Prices or valuations that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.

 

There were no changes in the fair value hierarchy levelling during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and year ended December 31, 2023.

 

The following table summarizes the fair value of our financial assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis, by level within the fair value hierarchy:

Ending balance   24,887      - 

 

Financial instruments with carrying values approximating fair value include cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, short-term deposits, other current assets, trade accounts payable and other accounts payable, due to their short-term nature.

 

The Company determined the fair value of the liabilities for the contingent consideration based on a probability discounted cash flow analysis. This fair value measurement is based on significant unobservable inputs in the market and thus represents a Level 3 measurement within the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of the contingent consideration is based on several factors, such as: the attainment of future clinical, developmental, regulatory, commercial and strategic milestones relating to product candidates for treatment of primary sclerosing cholangitis. The discount rate applied ranged from 4.13% to 4.52%. The contingent consideration is evaluated quarterly, or more frequently, if circumstances dictate. Changes in the fair value of contingent consideration are recorded in consolidated statements of operations. Significant changes in unobservable inputs, mainly the probability of success and cash flows projected, could result in material changes to the contingent consideration liability. Changes in contingent consideration for the six and three months ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023, resulted from the passage of time and discount rate revaluation.

 

The Company uses foreign exchange contracts (mainly option and forward contracts) to hedge cash flows from currency exposure. These foreign exchange contracts are not designated as hedging instruments for accounting purposes. In connection with these foreign exchange contracts, the Company recognizes gains or losses that offset the revaluation of the cash flows also recorded under financial expenses (income), net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. As of June 30, 2024, the Company had outstanding foreign exchange contracts for the exchange of USD to NIS in the amount of approximately $559 with a fair value asset of $17. As of December 31, 2023, the Company had outstanding foreign exchange contracts for the exchange of USD to NIS in the amount of approximately $4,136 with a fair value asset of $256.

 

The Company determined the fair value of the liabilities for the Private Placement Warrants using the Black-Scholes model, a Level 3 measurement, within the fair value hierarchy.

NOTE 6 – LEASES

 

On August 9, 2019, APT entered into a lease agreement (the “Lease Agreement”) with ARE-708 Quince Orchard, LLC (the “Landlord”), for office and lab spaces in Gaithersburg, Maryland starting on September 1, 2019. Over the course of years, APT and the Landlord amended the Lease Agreement in order to expand the square footage and to extend the lease period until November 28, 2034. The agreement included 49,625 square feet of area. The monthly lease payments under the lease agreement were approximately $255. On March 5, 2024, in connection with the Acquisition, APT and the Landlord, signed an amendment to the lease agreement. Pursuant to the amendment, the leased area will be decreased to 25,894 square feet (the “Remaining Area”), effective as of December 31, 2024. Following the amendment, the revised monthly lease payments are approximately $134. In exchange, APT was required to pay a relinquished premises fee in an amount equal to $1,500 within 10 business days following March 15, 2024 (the “Amendment Effective Date”). In addition, the Company issued the Landlord 250,000 warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 250,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock at an exercise price of $5.00 per share. The warrants became exercisable from the date of the receipt of BiomX stockholder approval, which was obtained on July 9, 2024, and will expire on January 28, 2027. The amendment also included a one-time option to early terminate the lease agreement on February 28, 2029 with respect to the Remaining Area under certain terms. The execution of the early termination will require APT to pay a termination fee of $3,000.

 

APT accounted for the decreased leased area and the termination option as a modification as it continues to use the area for a period of time after the termination. The modification occurred before the Acquisition as APT signed the amendment before the Closing Date but was contingent upon the Acquisition. The operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities contemplate the termination option.

 

Lease expenses recorded in the condensed statements of operations were $967 and $546 for the six and three months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, and $608 and $292 for the six and three months ended June 30, 2023, respectively.

NOTE 7 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

  A.

In August 2021, the Israeli Innovation Authority (“IIA”) approved an application that supports upgrading the Company’s manufacturing capabilities for an aggregate budget of NIS 5,737 (approximately $1,778). The IIA committed to fund 50% of the approved budget. The program was for the period beginning July 2021 through June 2022. The program does not bear royalties. Through June 30, 2024, the Company received NIS 1,912 (approximately $577) from the IIA with respect to this program.

 

In March 2022, the IIA approved an application for a total budget of NIS 13,004 (approximately $4,094) in relation to the Company’s cystic fibrosis product candidate. The IIA committed to fund 30% of the approved budget. The program was for the period beginning January 2022 through December 2022. Through June 30, 2024, the Company received NIS 1,365 (approximately $395) from the IIA with respect to this program.

 

In March 2023, the IIA approved an application for a total budget of NIS 11,283 (approximately $3,164) in relation to the Company’s cystic fibrosis product candidate. The IIA committed to fund 30% of the approved budget. The program was for the period beginning January 2023 through December 2023. Through June 30, 2024, the Company received NIS 2,783 (approximately $768) from the IIA with respect to this program.

 

According to the agreement with the IIA, excluding the August 2021 program, BiomX Israel will pay royalties of 3% to 3.5% of future sales up to an amount equal to the accumulated grant received including annual interest of LIBOR linked to the USD. Starting January 2024, the IIA has notified that the interest has changed to the 12-month Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) as published on the first trading day of each calendar year. BiomX Israel may be required to pay additional royalties upon the occurrence of certain events as determined by the IIA, that are within the control of BiomX Israel. No such events have occurred or were probable of occurrence as of the balance sheet date with respect to these royalties. Repayment of the grant is contingent upon the successful completion of the BiomX Israel’s R&D programs and generating sales. BiomX Israel has no obligation to repay these grants if the R&D program fails, is unsuccessful or aborted or if no sales are generated. The Company had not yet generated sales as of June 30, 2024; therefore, no liability was recorded in these condensed consolidated financial statements. IIA grants are recorded as a reduction of R&D expenses, net.

 

Through June 30, 2024, total grants approved from the IIA aggregated to approximately $9,353 (NIS 32,068). Through June 30, 2024, the Company had received an aggregate amount of $8,003 (NIS 27,423) in the form of grants from the IIA. Total grants subject to royalties’ payments aggregated to approximately $7,413. As of June 30, 2024, BiomX Israel had a contingent obligation to the IIA in the amount of approximately $8,124 including annual interest of SOFR applicable to dollar deposits.

 

  B. On June 23, 2022, BiomX Israel entered into a research collaboration agreement with Boehringer Ingelheim International GmbH (“BI”) for a collaboration to identify biomarkers for Inflammatory Bowel Disease. Under the agreement, BiomX Israel is eligible to receive fees totaling $1,411 to cover costs to be incurred by BiomX Israel in conducting the research plan under the collaboration. The fees were paid in four installments according to certain activities under the agreement. In December 2023, the Company completed its obligations with respect to this agreement and the last installment of $211 was received on January 18, 2024. The consideration is recorded as a reduction of R&D expenses, net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations according to the input model method on a cost-to-cost basis.

In 2019, APT entered into a Base Agreement and Research Project Award (collectively, the “Agreement”) with the U.S. Army Medical Research Acquisition Activity (“USAMRAA”) and the U.S. Army Medical Research & Development Command (“USAMRDC”) to advance personalized phage therapy from niche to broad use. Awards under the Agreement are intended to lay the groundwork for rapid advancement of personalized phage therapy to commercialization for the variety of clinical indications and bacterial pathogens representing un-met needs with a focus on infections with significant military relevance. The competitive award was granted by USAMRAA and USAMRDC in collaboration with the Medical Technology Enterprise Consortium (“MTEC”), a 501(c)(3) biomedical technology consortium working in partnership with the U.S. Department of Defense. Under the Agreement, MTEC reimburses APT for approved incurred costs that are based upon the achievement of certain milestones for conduct and completion of a Phase 1/2 study utilizing APT’s PhageBank to treat patients with urinary tract infections (“UTIs”). Over the course of years, APT entered into certain modifications to the contract to include additional activities for APT’s UTI program and perform pre-clinical activities to advance the Diabetic Foot Ulcer clinical program, as well as to include expanded activities to advance potential bacteriophage-based vaccines against COVID-19, for a total contract value of $36,214. In conjunction with this Agreement, APT is subject to an assessment fee of an amount equal to 3% of the total funded value of the research project award which should be paid by the Company upon signing the agreement or the modifications. For the period between the Acquisition and June 30, 2024, the Company received grants of $2,363 from MTEC with respect to the cost reimbursement contract. During the six and three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recorded $953 and $757 as a reduction of R&D expenses, net, respectively. The remainder of the consideration the Company is entitled to receive is recorded as other current assets in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

On August 16, 2021 (the “Closing Date”), the Company entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with Hercules Capital, Inc. (“Hercules”), with respect to a venture debt facility. Under the Loan Agreement, $15,000 was advanced to the Company on the date the Loan Agreement was executed. The Company was required to make interest only payments through March 1, 2023, and started to then repay the principal balance and interest in equal monthly installments through September 1, 2025.

 

The Loan Agreement provided that the Company could prepay advances under the Loan Agreement, in whole or in part, at any time subject to a prepayment charge equal to 1.0% after 24 months but prior to 36 months following the Closing Date. Upon prepayment or repayment of all or any of the term loans under the Term Loan Facility, the Company was required to pay an end of term charge (“End of Term Charge”) equal to 6.55% of the total aggregate amount of the term loans being prepaid or repaid. On March 19, 2024, the Company prepaid the entire balance under the Term Loan Facility in a total of $10,428. The prepayment included the End of Term Charge of $983 and accrued interest of $69. The Company received from Hercules a waiver regarding the prepayment charge that should have been 1% out of the prepaid principal amount that equals to $94.

 

Interest expense relating to the term loan, which is included in interest expense in the condensed statements of operations was $850 for the six months ended June 30, 2024. No interest expense was recognized in connection with the term loan for the three months ended June 30, 2024.

  A. Share Capital:

 

Private Investment in Public Equity:

 

On February 22, 2023, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement to issue and sell an aggregate of 15,997,448 shares of its Common Stock and 14,610,714 pre-funded warrants (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”) at a price of $0.245 per share and $0.244 per Pre-Funded Warrant in a private placement (the “February 2023 PIPE”). The net proceeds from the PIPE were approximately $7,152, after deducting issuance costs of $333. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, 5,330,306 Pre-Funded Warrants were exercised into 5,330,306 shares of Common Stock for total consideration of $6 at an exercise price of $0.001 per share of Common Stock, and 9,280,408 Pre-Funded Warrants were exercised into 9,256,064 shares of Common Stock through cashless mechanism with no consideration. As of June 30, 2024, there are no outstanding Pre-Funded Warrants.

 

On March 15, 2024, in connection with the Acquisition, the Company issued to APT’s former stockholders 9,164,968 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, 40,470 Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares and 2,166,497 Merger Warrants. See Note 1D for further information.

 

Concurrently with the consummation of the Acquisition as described in Note 1D, the Company entered into the March 2024 PIPE, pursuant to which such investors purchased an aggregate of 216,417 Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares (“PIPE Preferred Shares”) and Private Placement Warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 108,208,500 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, at a combined price of $231.10 per share. The PIPE Preferred Shares and the Private Placement Warrants were issued in a private placement pursuant to an exemption from registration requirements under the Securities Act for aggregate gross proceeds of $50,000. Each Private Placement Warrant’s exercise price equals to $0.2311, subject to customary adjustments for stock dividends, stock splits, reclassifications and the like, became exercisable from the date of the receipt of BiomX stockholder approval, which was obtained on July 9, 2024, and will expire on July 9, 2026. Under certain circumstances, the Company may be required to pay to each holder of the Private Placement Warrants (i) an amount in cash equal to the holder’s total purchase price for the shares of Common Stock purchased (the “Buy-In Price”) or credit such holder’s balance account with the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) for such shares of Common Stock shall terminate, or (ii) promptly honor its obligation to deliver to such holder a certificate or certificates representing such shares of Common Stock or credit such holder’s balance account with DTC, as applicable, and pay cash to such holder in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Buy-In Price over the product of (A) such number of shares of Common Stock, times (B) Weighted Average Price (as defined in the Private Placement Warrant) on the trading day immediately preceding the exercise date. See Note 13a for further information regarding the conversion of the PIPE Preferred Shares and the Private Placement Warrants subsequent to the financial statements date.

 

The Company accounted for the Private Placement Warrants as liabilities as the Private Placement Warrants are not considered indexed to the entity’s own stock based on the provision of ASC 815. The Private Placement Warrants will be measured at fair value at inception and in subsequent reporting periods with changes in fair value recognized in the condensed consolidated statements.

 

The terms of the PIPE Preferred Shares are substantially the same as those of the Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares issued under the Acquisition and were accounted for as temporary equity at the issuance date. As of June 30, 2024, the PIPE Preferred Shares were reclassified as equity. See Note 1D for further information.

 

In connection therewith, the Company issued warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s Common Stock to the Placement Agents (the “Agents Warrants”). See Note 10B for further information.

 

The Company allocated the total consideration from the issuance of the 2024 March PIPE first to the fair value of the Private Placement Warrants and then to the PIPE Preferred Shares. The Company had transaction costs of approximately $3,317 out of which $1,273 is Stock-Based Compensation due to issuance of the Agents Warrants. The transaction costs were allocated in the same manner as the consideration. Issuance costs which were allocated to the PIPE Preferred Shares were $1,410 and deducted from Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares, and issuance costs that were allocated to the Private Placement Warrants were $1,907 and were expensed immediately.

 

At-the-Market Sales Agreement:

  

In December 2023, pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-3 declared effective by the SEC on January 2, 2024, the Company entered an At the Market Offering Agreement with H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC (“Wainwright”), pursuant to which the Company may issue and sell shares of Common Stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $7,500 from time to time through Wainwright. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company sold 75,179 shares of Common Stock under this agreement, at an average price of $0.271 per share, raising aggregate net proceeds of approximately $19, after deducting an aggregate commission of $1.

 

Preferred Stock:

 

The Company is authorized to issue 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share with such designation, rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”).

 

On March 15, 2024, the Company issued 40,470 and 216,417 Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares, par value $0.0001 per share, as part of the Acquisition and the March 2024 PIPE, respectively. See Note 1D and 9A for further information. Subsequent to the financial statements date, 109,152 Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares were converted into 109,152,000 shares of Common Stock. See Note 13a for further information.

  B. Stock-based Compensation:

  

On March 15, 2024, the Company issued 9,523,809 Agents Warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 9,523,809 shares of the Company’s Common Stock to the Placement Agents in connection with the March 2024 PIPE. The exercise price of the Agents Warrants is $0.2311 per share and they became exercisable at any time after the date of the receipt of BiomX stockholder approval, which was obtained on July 9, 2024, and will expire on July 9, 2026.

 

The Company accounted for the Agents Warrants under the scope of ASC 718-10 “Stock-Based Payment”, (“ASC 718-10”), and treated them as issuance costs of the March 2024 PIPE as the Company considers these Warrants as consideration for receipt of Private Placement Services.

Basic and Diluted Loss (Earnings) Per Share [Abstract ]  
BASIC AND DILUTED LOSS (EARNINGS) PER SHARE

NOTE 11 – BASIC AND DILUTED LOSS (EARNINGS) PER SHARE

 

Basic loss (earnings) per share is computed on the basis of the net loss (income) for the period divided by the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding during the period, fully vested warrants with no exercise price for the Company’s Common Stock and fully vested Pre-Funded Warrants for the Company’s Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.001 per share, as the Company considers these shares to be exercised for little to no additional consideration.

 

Diluted loss per share is based upon the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock and of potential shares of Common Stock outstanding when dilutive. Potential shares of Common Stock equivalents include outstanding stock options and warrants, which are included under the treasury stock method when dilutive.

 

The calculation of diluted loss per share for the six and three months ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023, does not include the shares underlying the following financial instruments because their effect would be anti-dilutive:

EVENTS DURING THE PERIOD

NOTE 12 – EVENTS DURING THE PERIOD

 

In October 2021, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with a subsidiary of Maruho Co. Ltd., (“Maruho”), pursuant to which the Company issued to Maruho shares of Common Stock of the Company and granted Maruho a right of first offer to license its atopic dermatitis product candidate, BX005, in Japan. The right of first offer was supposed to commence following the availability of results from the Phase 1/2 study which were expected in 2022. Part of the consideration paid under the agreements, equal to the grant date fair value of the shares issued to Maruho was attributed to the issuance of shares. The remainder of $1,976 was attributed to a contract liability, to be recognized as other income, at a point in time, once the clinical trials related to the product candidate are completed. In April 2024, following the Acquisition, the Company decided to pause the development of BX005. As a result, the parties agreed that the right of first offer to license BX005 is no longer applicable. As a result, the Company reversed the full amount of the contract liability and recognized $1,976 as Other Income in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements
A.Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for condensed financial information. They do not include all the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair statement have been included (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments except as otherwise discussed).

The financial information contained in this report should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, that the Company filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on April 4, 2024. The year-end balance sheet data was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2023.
Principles of Consolidation
B.Principles of Consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.
Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements
C.Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the amounts of expenses during the reported years. The most significant estimates in the Company’s financial statements relate to accruals for research and development expenses, valuation of stock-based compensation awards, purchase price allocation related to the Acquisition and the Private Placement Warrants fair value revaluation. These estimates and assumptions are based on current facts, future expectations, and various other factors believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the recording of expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ materially and adversely from these estimates.

The full extent to which the Israel-Hamas war may directly or indirectly impact the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition will depend on future developments that are uncertain, as well as the economic impact on local, regional, national and international markets.
Business Combination
D.Business Combination

The Company allocates the fair value of consideration transferred in a business combination to the assets acquired, liabilities assumed based on their fair values at the acquisition date. Acquisition-related expenses are recognized separately from the business combination and are expensed as incurred. The excess of the fair value of the consideration transferred over the fair value of the assets acquired, liabilities assumed in the acquired business is recorded as goodwill. The fair value of the consideration transferred included equity securities. The allocation of the consideration transferred in certain cases may be subject to revision based on the final determination of fair values during the measurement period, which may be up to one year from the acquisition date. The cumulative impact of revisions during the measurement period is recognized in the reporting period in which the revisions are identified. The Company includes the results of operations of the businesses that it has acquired in its consolidated results prospectively from the respective dates of Acquisition.

 
Financial instruments
E.Financial instruments

When the Company issues freestanding instruments, it first analyzes the provisions of ASC 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities From Equity” (“ASC 480”) in order to determine whether the instrument should be classified as a liability, with subsequent changes in fair value recognized in the consolidated statements of operations in each period. If the instrument is not within the scope of ASC 480, the Company further analyzes the provisions of ASC 815-10 in order to determine whether the instrument is considered indexed to the entity’s own stock and qualifies for classification within equity.

When the Company issues preferred shares, it first considers the provisions of ASC 480, in order to determine whether the preferred shares should be classified as a liability. If the instrument is not within the scope of ASC 480, the Company further analyzes the instrument’s characteristics in order to determine whether it should be classified within temporary equity (mezzanine) or within permanent equity in accordance with the provisions of ASC 480-10-S99. The Company reassesses the classification of a contract over its own equity under the guidance above at each balance sheet date. If classification changes as a result of events during the reporting period, the Company reclassifies the contract as of the date of the event that caused the reclassification. See Note 1D regarding the reclassification of the Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares.

When the Company issues warrants, it first considers the provisions of ASC 815-40, “Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity” (“ASC 815-40”) in order to determine whether the warrants should be classified as equity. Equity classification is permitted when warrants are indexed to the Company’s own shares and meet the classification requirements for stockholders’ equity classification under ASC 815-40. If the warrants are not within the scope of ASC 815-40, the Company accounts for the warrants in accordance with the guidance contained in Accounting Standards Codification 815 (“ASC 815”), “Derivatives and Hedging”, under which the warrants do not meet the criteria for equity treatment and must be recorded as derivative liabilities. Accordingly, the Company classifies the Private Placement Warrants as liabilities at their fair value and adjusts the warrants to fair value at each reporting period. This liability is subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date until the warrants are exercised or expire, and any change in fair value is recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. See Note 10A for further information regarding the Private Placement Warrants.
Basic and diluted loss (earnings) per share
F.Basic and diluted loss (earnings) per share

Basic loss (earnings) per share is computed by dividing net loss (income) by the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding during the period, fully vested warrants with no exercise price for the Company’s Common Stock and fully vested Pre-Funded Warrants for the Company’s Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.001 per share, as the Company considers these shares to be exercised for little to no additional consideration. The calculation excludes shares of Common Stock purchased by the Company and held as treasury shares. Diluted loss (income) per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding during the period, plus the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been outstanding if all potentially dilutive shares of Common Stock had been issued, using the treasury stock method, in accordance with ASC 260-10, “Earnings per Share.”

The Company computes net loss (income) per share using the two-class method required for participating securities. The two-class method requires income available to common stockholders for the period to be allocated between shares of Common Stock and participating securities based upon their respective rights to receive dividends as if all income for the period had been distributed. The Company considers its Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares to be participating securities as the holders of the Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares would be entitled to dividends that would be distributed to the holders of Common Stock, on a pro-rata basis assuming conversion of all Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares into shares of Common Stock. These participating securities do not contractually require the holders of such shares to participate in the Company’s losses. As such, net loss for the periods presented was not allocated to the Company’s participating securities.
Intangible Assets
G.Intangible Assets

Goodwill

Goodwill reflects the excess of the consideration transferred at the business combination date over the fair values of the identifiable net assets acquired. Goodwill is an asset representing the future economic benefits arising from other assets acquired in a business combination that are not individually identified and separately recognized. The primary items that generate goodwill include the value of the synergies between the acquired company and the Company and the acquired assembled workforce, neither of which qualifies for recognition as an intangible asset. ASC 350, “Intangibles—Goodwill and Other” allows an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether a quantitative goodwill impairment test is necessary. Further testing is only required if the entity determines, based on the qualitative assessment, that it is more likely than not that the fair value is less than its carrying amount. Otherwise, no further impairment testing is required.

 

The Company’s goodwill is tested for impairment at least on an annual basis, on the last day of the fourth quarter of the fiscal year and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of a reporting unit may not be recoverable. When necessary, the Company records charges for impairments of goodwill for the amount by which the carrying amount of the respective reporting unit exceeds its fair value. However, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit.

Intangible assets

IPR&D assets acquired in a business combination are recognized at fair value as of the acquisition date and subsequently accounted for as indefinite-lived intangible assets until completion or abandonment of the associated R&D efforts. Indefinite-lived intangible assets are reviewed for impairment at least annually or whenever there is an indication that the asset may be impaired. 
Recent Accounting Standards
H.Recent Accounting Standards

Recently issued accounting pronouncements, not yet adopted

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09 “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures” (“ASU 2023-09”). This guidance is intended to enhance the transparency and decision-usefulness of income tax disclosures. The amendments in ASU 2023-09 address investor requests for enhanced income tax information primarily through changes to disclosure regarding rate reconciliation and income taxes paid both in the U.S. and in foreign jurisdictions. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 on a prospective basis, with the option to apply the standard retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance to determine the impact it may have on its consolidated financial statements disclosures.

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-07 “Segment Reporting: Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures” (“ASU 2023-07”). This guidance expands public entities’ segment disclosures primarily by requiring disclosure of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss, an amount and description of its composition for other segment items, and interim disclosures of a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets that are currently required annually. Public entities with a single reportable segment are required to provide the new disclosures and all the disclosures required under ASC 280, “Segment Reporting”. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The amendments are required to be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in an entity’s financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance to determine the impact it may have on its consolidated financial statements disclosures.
