DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
 
  a.
Entera Bio Ltd. (collectively with its subsidiary, the "Company") was incorporated on September 30, 2009 under the laws of the State of Israel and commenced operation on June 1, 2010. On January 8, 2018, the Company incorporated Entera Bio Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary incorporated in Delaware United States. The Company is a leader in the development and commercialization of orally delivered large molecule therapeutics for use in areas with significant unmet medical need where adoption of injectable therapies is limited due to cost, convenience and compliance challenges for patients. The Company’s most advanced product candidates, EB613 for the treatment of osteoporosis and EB612 for the treatment of hypoparathyroidism, are based on its proprietary technology platform and are both in clinical development. Additionally, the Company intends to license its oral delivery technology to biopharmaceutical companies for use with their proprietary compounds.     

 

  b.
The Company's ordinary shares, NIS 0.0000769 par value per share (“ordinary shares”), have been listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market since July 2018 under the symbol “ENTX”.
 
  c.
Because the Company is engaged in research and development activities, it has not derived significant income from its activities and has incurred an accumulated deficit in the amount of $100.0 million as of June 30, 2023 and negative cash flows from operating activities. The Company's management is of the opinion that its available funds as of June 30, 2023 will allow the Company to operate under its current plans into the third quarter of 2024. This assumes the use of the Company’s capital to fund its ongoing operations, including R&D and the completion of the Phase 1 study related to the new formulation EB612. This does not include the capital required to fund the Company's proposed Phase 3 study for EB613 in osteoporosis and the related comparative study. These factors raise substantial doubt as to the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management is in the process of evaluating various financing alternatives in the public or private equity markets, debt financing and strategic collaborations, as the Company will need to finance future research and development activities, general and administrative expenses and working capital through fund raising. However, there is no certainty about the Company's ability to obtain such funding. These condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that may be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
