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 as a blank check company on November 1, 2017, under the laws of the state of Delaware, for the purpose of entering into a merger, stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities.

 

On October 29, 2019, the Company merged with BiomX Israel, who survived the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of BiomX Inc. The Company acquired all outstanding shares of BiomX Israel. In exchange, shareholders of BiomX Israel received 79,311 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, representing 65% of the total shares issued and outstanding after the acquisition (“Recapitalization Transaction”). BiomX Israel was deemed the “accounting acquirer” due to the largest ownership interest in the Company. The Company’s shares of Common Stock are traded on the NYSE American under the symbol PHGE.

 

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 diabetic foot infections. BiomX discovers and validates proprietary bacterial targets and customizes phage compositions against these targets.

 

On August 24, 2025, BiomX Israel filed an application with the Israeli Registrar of Companies for the expedited voluntary liquidation of its subsidiary, RondinX Ltd. which became effective on December 3, 2025. As of that date, RondinX had no significant operations.

 

On November 13, 2025, the Board of Directors approved a 1-for-19 reverse stock split of the Company’s shares of Common Stock (the “2025 Reverse Stock Split”), effective on November 25, 2025. See Note 12A for further information.

 

In December 2025, BiomX Israel commenced insolvency proceedings in Israel, following the announcement on December 8, 2025, of its discontinuation of the ongoing Phase 2b clinical trial of nebulized phage therapy BX004 in patients with cystic fibrosis associated with chronic Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections. As a result, BiomX Israel implemented cost-cutting measures including a significant reduction in workforce. On January 25, 2026, the Central District Court in Lod, Israel, appointed a trustee (the “Trustee”) to BiomX Israel to handle the administration of the insolvency proceedings. See further information in Note 19B.

  B. Going concern

 

The Company has incurred significant losses and negative cash flows from operations and incurred an accumulated deficit of $216,896 as of December 31, 2025. These are expected to continue in the foreseeable future. The Company plans to continue to fund its operations, as well as other development activities relating to additional product candidates, or other strategic alternatives through issuance of debt and/or equity securities, loans, and government grants. Management believes that its current funds, including the $3,000 raised in January 2026 as described in Note 19A, will be sufficient to fund its operations for only several months following the issuance date of these financial statements. 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 and there is no assurance that the Company will be successful in such processes. As mentioned in Note 1A, BiomX Ltd has entered into insolvency proceedings in Israel in December 2025, following the discontinuation of the Phase 2b clinical trial of nebulized phage therapy BX004 in patients with cystic fibrosis and is currently working under a trustee appointed by the court. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The 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.

 

  C. Merger Agreement

 

On March 6, 2024, the Company, entered into an agreement and plan of merger (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 (collectively, the “Acquisition”). APT was a U.S.-based privately held, clinical-stage biotechnology company pioneering the development of phage-based therapies to combat bacterial infection. See further information regarding the consideration transferred to APT’s former stockholders in Note 12A.

 

On March 15, 2024, the effective date of the Acquisition (the “Closing Date”), APT’s former stockholders were issued an aggregate of 48,237 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, 40,470 Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares and warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 11,403 shares of the Company Common Stock (“Merger Warrants”). See further information in Note 12A.

 

On July 9, 2024 the Company’s stockholders approved, among other things, the conversion of the Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares into shares of Common Stock. On July 15, 2024, 109,152 Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares were converted into 574,484 shares of the Company’s Common Stock according to beneficial ownership limitations set by certain investors. During the year ended December 31, 2025, 223 Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares were converted into 1,174 shares of the Company’s Common Stock according to beneficial ownership limitations set by certain investors.

 

Immediately following the Acquisition, and without taking into account the PIPE Preferred Shares and the Private Placement Warrants, each as defined in Note 12A below, the Company’s stockholders prior to the Acquisition owned approximate 55% the Company and APT’s stockholders prior to the Acquisition owned approximately 45% of the Company.

 

The Acquisition-related transaction costs are accounted for as expenses in the period in which the costs are incurred. For the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company incurred transaction costs of $888 which were included in general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.

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 consists 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.

  

Purchase Price Allocation

 

The following sets forth the fair value of acquired identifiable assets and assumed liabilities of APT, after considering measurement period adjustment as described below, 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   16,088 
Total assets   30,232 
      
Trade accounts payable   (3,667)
Other accounts payable   (2,895)
Operating lease liability   (7,819)
Total liabilities   (14,381)
Total consideration   15,851 

 

The fair value estimate for all identifiable assets and liabilities assumed 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).

 

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.

During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company made a measurement period adjustment to the purchase price allocation, which resulted in an increase to goodwill of $300. The increase resulted from a provision for a contingency not provided in the initial purchase price allocation, following a settlement agreement between APT and Oyster Point Pharma, Inc. (“Oyster”) in connection with the Collaboration and Option Agreement signed in May 2021 as discussed in Note 8A. The fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed have been finalized. See Note 11 for further information regarding the impairment recorded for the IPR&D and goodwill.

 

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

 

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 ($)   70.3 
Exercise price ($)   950 
Expected volatility (%)   117.7 
Expected terms (years)   2.87 
Risk-free interest rate (%)   4.5 

 

The actual APT net loss included in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2024, is as follows:

 

   December 31,
2024
 
Net loss attributable to APT*   16,792 

 

* Including impairments loss related to goodwill, IPR&D and long-lived assets of $801, $3,237 and $4,046, respectively.
