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 operations, cash flows,
financial position, business strategy and plans, potential acquisitions, market growth, our clinical and pre-clinical development program,
including timing and milestones thereof as well as 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,
the potential effect of the coronavirus disease 2019, or COVID-19, on our business and levels of expenses, sufficiency of financial resources
and financial needs. 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 unpredictable timing and cost associated with our approach to developing product candidates using phage technology;
●
the continued impact of COVID-19 on general economic conditions, our operations, the continuity of our business, including our preclinical and clinical trials and our ability to raise additional capital;
●
the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s, or FDA’s, classification of our BX001 product candidate for acne-prone skin as a drug or cosmetic and the impact of changing regulatory requirements on our ability to develop and commercialize BX001;
●
obtaining FDA acceptance of any non-U.S. clinical trials of product candidates;
●
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;
●
expenses associated with compliance with ongoing regulatory obligations and successful continuing regulatory review in various global markets;
●
market acceptance of our product candidates and ability to identify or discover additional product candidates;
●
our ability to obtain high titers for specific phage cocktails necessary for preclinical and clinical testing;
●
the availability of specialty raw materials;
●
the ability of our product candidates to demonstrate requisite safety and tolerability for cosmetics, 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, especially with governments undergoing changes in administration and priorities;
●
our ability to enroll patients in clinical trials and achieve anticipated development milestones when expected;
●
delays in developing manufacturing processes for our product candidates;
ii
●
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 health care 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 manage the growth of the business;
●
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;
●
potential security breaches, including cybersecurity incidents;
●
r eceipt of net proceeds of approximately $14.6 million, net of $0.4 million
of closing charges, relating to the first tranche under the Hercules Loan Agreement, as such term is defined below;
●
receipt of the second and / or third tranches under the Hercules Loan Agreement;
●
political, economic and military instability in the State of Israel; and
●
other factors discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, or, the 2020 Annual Report.
For a detailed discussion
of these and other risks, uncertainties and factors, see Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors” of our 2020 Annual Report and in Part
II, Item 1A of this Quarterly 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.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(USD in thousands, except share and per share data)
NOTE 1 – GENERAL
A. General
information:
BiomX Inc. (formerly known as Chardan
Healthcare Acquisition Corp., individually prior to BiomX Inc.’s acquisition of 100 % of the outstanding shares of BiomX Israel Ltd.
(the “Recapitalization Transaction”, “BiomX Israel” respectively), and together with its subsidiaries, BiomX Ltd.
and RondinX Ltd., after the Recapitalization Transaction, 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, share exchange,
asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities.
On October 28, 2019, the Company was
renamed BiomX Inc. and the Company’s shares of Common Stock, units, and warrants began trading on the NYSE American under the symbols
PHGE, PHGE.U, and PHGE.WS, respectively.
On February 6, 2020, the Company’s
Common Stock also began trading on the Tel-Aviv Stock Exchange.
To date, the Company has not generated
revenue from its operations. As of June 30, 2021, the Company had a cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash balance of approximately
$ 47,253 , which management believes is sufficient to fund its operations for more than 12 months from the date of issuance of these condensed
consolidated financial statements and sufficient to fund its operations necessary to continue development activities of its current proposed
products.
Consistent with its continuing research
and development activities, the Company expects to continue to incur additional losses for the foreseeable future. The Company plans to
continue to fund its current operations, as well as other development activities relating to additional product candidates, through future
issuances of debt and/or equity securities, loans and possibly additional grants from the Israel Innovation Authority (“IIA”)
and other government institutions. The Company’s 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 the Company’s Common Stock, which itself is subject
to a number of development and business risks and uncertainties, as well as the uncertainty that the Company would be able to raise such
additional capital at a price or on terms that are favorable to it. See Note 7.

NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
B. 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 presentation 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, 2020, that the Company filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Committee (the “SEC”)
on March 31, 2021.
C. 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.
D. 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.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
E. Recent Accounting Standards
In May 2021, the Financial Accountings
Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2021-04, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Debt—Modifications
and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470-50), Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts
in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815- 40): Issuer’s Accounting for Certain Modifications or Exchanges of Freestanding Equity-Classified
Written Call Options (“ASU 2021-04”). The guidance is effective for the Company on January 1, 2022. The Company is currently
evaluating the impact of adopting this standard.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No.
2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses,” to improve information on credit losses for financial assets and net
investment in leases that are not accounted for at fair value through net income. ASU No. 2016-13 replaces the current incurred loss impairment
methodology with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses. This guidance is effective for the Company beginning on January 1,
2023, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect that the adoption of this standard will have a significant impact on
its condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU
2020-06, “Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging-Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity
(Subtopic 815-40)-Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity.” The ASU simplifies accounting
for convertible instruments by removing major separation models required under current GAAP. Consequently, more convertible debt instruments
will be reported as a single liability instrument with no separate accounting for embedded conversion features. The ASU removes certain
settlement conditions that are required for equity contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception, which will permit more equity
contracts to qualify for it. The ASU also simplifies the diluted net income per share calculation in certain areas. The new guidance is
effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2021, and early adoption is permitted for fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company does not expect that the adoption of this standard
will have a significant impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.)
F. Derivatives Activity
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, 2021, the Company had outstanding foreign exchange contracts for the exchange of USD to NIS in the amount
of approximately $ 3,988 with a fair value of $ 7 . As of June 30, 2020, the Company had no outstanding foreign exchange contracts.
G. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair value of certain of the Company’s
financial instruments including cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and other accrued liabilities approximate
cost because of their short maturities. The Company measures and reports fair value in accordance with ASC 820, “Fair Value
Measurements and Disclosure” defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.
Fair value, as defined in ASC 820,
is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants
at the measurement date. The fair value of an asset should reflect its highest and best use by market participants, principal (or most
advantageous) markets, and an in-use or an in-exchange valuation premise. The fair value of a liability should reflect the risk of nonperformance,
which includes, among other things, the Company’s credit risk.
Valuation techniques are generally
classified into three categories: the market approach; the income approach; and the cost approach. The selection and application of one
or more of the techniques may require significant judgment and are primarily dependent upon the characteristics of the asset or liability,
and the quality and availability of inputs. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value under ASC 820 must maximize the use of observable
inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. ASC 820 also provides fair value hierarchy for inputs and resulting measurement as
follows:
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 period ended June 30, 2021 and year ended December 31, 2020.

NOTE 3 – ACQUISITION OF SUBSIDIARY
In November 2017, BiomX Israel signed
a share purchase agreement with the shareholders of RondinX Ltd. In accordance with the share purchase agreement, BiomX Israel acquired
100% control and ownership of RondinX Ltd. for consideration valued at $4,500. The consideration included the issuance of 250,023 Preferred
A Shares, the issuance of warrants to purchase an aggregate of 4,380 Series A-1 preferred shares, and additional contingent consideration.
As part of the Recapitalization Transaction the Company issued shares of Common Stock in exchange for outstanding ordinary shares and
all the preferred shares of BiomX Israel. The number of shares prior to the Recapitalization Transaction has been retroactively adjusted
based on the equivalent number of shares received by the accounting acquirer in the Recapitalization Transaction. The contingent consideration
is based on the attainment of future clinical, developmental, regulatory, commercial and strategic milestones relating to product candidates
for treatment of primary sclerosing cholangitis or entry into qualifying collaboration agreements with certain third parties and may require
the Company to issue 567,729 shares of Common Stock upon the attainment of certain milestones, as well as make future cash payments and/or
issue additional shares of the most senior class of the Company’s shares authorized or outstanding as of the time the payment is
due, or a combination of both of up to $32,000 within ten years from November 2017. The Company has the discretion of determining whether
milestone payments will be made in cash or by issuance of shares of Common Stock.
The contingent consideration is accounted
for at fair value (Level 3). There were no changes in the fair value hierarchy leveling during the quarter ended June 30, 2021 and year
ended December 31, 2020.
The condensed consolidated financial statements
as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 include a liability with respect to this agreement in the amount of $ 180 and $ 83 , respectively.
The changes in the liability are recorded in the condensed consolidated statements of operations as part of general and administrative

Share Capital:
At-the-market Sales Agreement:
In December 2020, pursuant to a registration
statement on Form S-3 declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 11, 2020, the Company entered into an Open
Market Sales Agreement (“ATM Agreement”) with Jefferies LLC. (“Jefferies”), which provides that, upon the terms
and subject to the conditions and limitations in the ATM Agreement, the Company may elect, from time to time, to offer and sell shares
of Common Stock with an aggregate offering price of up to $50,000, with Jefferies acting as sales agent. During the six months ended June
30, 2021, the Company sold 734,164 shares of Common Stock under the ATM Agreement, at an average price of $6.99 per share, raising aggregate
net proceeds of approximately $5,135, after deducting an aggregate commission of $158.
B.
Stock-based Compensation:
In 2019, the Company adopted a new
incentive plan (the “2019 Plan”) to grant 1,000 options, exercisable for Common Stock.
The aggregate number of shares of
Common Stock that may be delivered pursuant to the 2019 Plan will automatically increase on January 1 of each year, commencing on January
1, 2020 and ending on (and including) January 1, 2029, in an amount equal to four percent (4%) of the total number of shares of Common
Stock outstanding on December 31 of the preceding calendar year (“Evergreen Amount”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board
may act prior to January 1 of a given year to provide that there will be no January 1 increase for such year or that the increase for
such year will be a lesser number of shares of Common Stock than the Evergreen Amount. On January 1, 2020 and January 1, 2021, the
number of shares of Common Stock available to grant under the 2019 Plan was increased by 914,741 and 930,813 , respectively, to an aggregate
of 1,846,554 shares.
On March 30, 2021, the Board of Directors
approved the grant of 985,530 options to 94 employees, including five senior officers, one consultant, and six directors under the
2019 Plan, without consideration. Options were granted at an exercise price of $ 7.02 per share with a vesting period of four years . Directors
and senior officers are entitled to full acceleration of their unvested options upon the occurrence of both a change in control of the
Company and the end of their engagement with the Company.

The following discussion and
analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the financial statements
and the notes thereto contained elsewhere in this Quarterly Report. Certain information contained in the discussion and analysis set forth
below includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties.
General
We are a clinical company
developing products using both natural and engineered phage technologies designed to target and destroy bacteria that affect the appearance
of skin, as well as harmful bacteria in chronic diseases, such as inflammatory bowel disease, or IBD, Cystic Fibrosis, or CF, Atopic Dermatitis,
or AD, primary sclerosing cholangitis, or PSC, and colorectal cancer, or CRC. Bacteriophage or phage are viruses that target bacteria
and are considered inert to mammalian cells. By developing proprietary combinations of naturally occurring phage and by creating novel
phage using synthetic biology, we develop phage-based therapies intended to address large-market and orphan diseases.
Since inception in 2015, we
have devoted substantially all our resources to organizing and staffing the company, raising capital, acquiring rights to or discovering
product candidates, developing our technology platforms, securing related intellectual property rights, and conducting discovery, research
and development activities for our product candidates. We do not have any products approved for sale, our products are still in the preclinical
and clinical development stages, and we have not generated any revenue from product sales. As we move our product candidates from preclinical
to clinical stage and continue with clinical trials, we expect our expenses to increase.
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.
BOLT is designed to allow parallel phage cocktail
development under two optional paths:
●
A personalized approach aimed at conducting a rapid initial clinical proof of concept study in patients (Phase 2 results) within approximately 12-18 months of project initiation. In certain indications the time to clinical proof of concept may be longer depending on the indication, identity of target bacteria, recruitment rate, cohort size and other factors. Under this path we develop an initial phage cocktail or cocktails of naturally-occurring phage designed to target the bacterial strains isolated from each study subject participating in the clinical proof of concept study. This phage cocktail or cocktails may differ from the final optimized phage cocktail to be commercialized, if approved. The ability to move quickly into clinical development is also driven by the strong safety profile of naturally-occurring phage, which we believe will allow us to bypass GLP toxicity studies and safety studies in healthy volunteers based on feedback from the FDA in connection with our IBD development program, and to proceed directly to Phase 2 proof of concept.
2
●
Development of the final optimized fixed phage cocktail to be commercialized – the optimized cocktail targets a broad patient population and may be comprised of naturally-occurring or synthetically engineered phage. The cocktail contains phage with complementary features and is further optimized for multiple characteristics such as broad target host range, ability to prevent resistance, biofilm penetration, stability and ease of manufacturing. Development of the optimized phage cocktail is anticipated to require 1-2 years and will be conducted in parallel to developing the personalized product candidates and executing the clinical proof of concept studies described above.
Clinical and Pre-Clinical Developments
On November 12, 2020, we announced
consolidation of our IBD and PSC programs into a single broad host range product candidate, named BX003, under development for both indications.
Prior to November 2020, we had two separate phage product candidates for IBD and for PSC, with our IBD product candidate named BX002 and
PSC product candidate named BX003. After the consolidation, the current BX003 product candidate is now under development to treat both
IBD and PSC, targeting bacterial strains of Klebsiella pneumoniae , or K. pneumoniae , a potential pathogen implicated in
both diseases. Prior to the consolidation, our Phase 1a clinical study was conducted only on BX002, and future clinical studies are planned
to be conducted on BX003 for both IBD and PSC.
On February 2, 2021, we announced
positive results of a randomized, single-blind, multiple-dose, placebo-controlled Phase 1a pharmacokinetic study of BX002, our product
candidate for IBD and PSC, conducted under an investigational new drug, or IND, application submitted to the FDA. The study evaluated
the safety and tolerability of orally administered BX002 in 18 healthy volunteers. Subjects were randomized to receive orally either BX002
or placebo, twice daily for three days. Subjects were monitored for safety for seven days in a clinical unit, with follow-up monitoring
for safety assessments conducted at 14 and 28 days after completion of dosing. BX002 was demonstrated to be safe and well-tolerated, with
no serious adverse events and no adverse events leading to discontinuation. In addition, the study met its objective of delivering high
concentrations of viable phage to the gastrointestinal tract of approximately 10 10 PFU, or plaque forming units. This equals
approximately 1,000 times more viable phage compared to the bacterial burden of K. pneumoniae in IBD and PSC patients as measured
in stool. Based on the Phase 1a study results, we plan to advance to a Phase 1b/2a study evaluating the efficacy of BX003 for the reduction
of K. pneumoniae in individuals that carry the target bacteria. Results from the Phase 1b/2a study are expected in the second quarter
of 2022.
On March 31, 2021, we announced
the selection of the phage cocktail for BX004, our therapeutic phage product candidate under development for chronic respiratory infections
caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa, or P. aeruginosa, a main contributor to morbidity and mortality in patients with CF. Based
on recommendations from the Cystic Fibrosis Therapeutic Development Network, we updated our Phase 2 proof-of-concept study design and
timelines to a Phase 1b/2a trial in CF patients with chronic respiratory infections caused by P. aeruginosa. The Phase 1b/2a trial will
be comprised of two parts. Part 1 will evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics and microbiologic/clinical activity of BX004 in eight CF
patients in a single ascending dose and multiple ascending dose design. Results from Part 1 are expected in the first quarter of 2022.
Part 2 of the Phase 1b/2a trial will evaluate the safety and efficacy of BX004 in 21 CF patients randomized to a treatment or placebo
cohort in a 2:1 ratio. Results from Part 2 are expected by the second quarter of 2022.
3
On March 31, 2021, we announced
the selection of the phage cocktail for BX005, our topical phage product candidate targeting Staphylococcus aureus , or S. aureus ,
a bacterium associated with the development and exacerbation of inflammation in atopic dermatitis. By reducing S. aureus burden,
BX005 is designed to shift the skin microbiome composition to its “pre-flare” state to potentially result in clinical improvement.
Results from a Phase 2 proof-of-concept trial evaluating the safety and efficacy of BX005 in atopic dermatitis patients are expected in
the first half of 2022.
On May 24, 2021, we announced
that we have completed enrollment of 140 patients under our Phase 2 cosmetic clinical study of BX001, a topical gel comprised of a cocktail
of naturally-occurring phage targeting Cutibacterium acnes , or C. acnes , to improve the appearance of acne-prone skin in
subjects with acne-prone skin. C. acnes are bacteria implicated in the pathophysiology of acne vulgaris. The study is a 12-week
randomized, single center, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial with 140 individuals with mild-to-moderate acne vulgaris. Subjects enrolled
are randomized into two cohorts: BX001 or placebo (vehicle) in a 1:1 ratio and will self-administer BX001 or placebo twice daily. The
key endpoints will evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of BX001. Full analysis of the 12-week study is expected to be available
at end of October 2021.
For our CRC program, we are exploring phage mediated delivery of therapeutic
payloads to Fusobacterium nucleatum bacteria residing in the tumors of patients with colorectal cancer. Preclinical
results from animal studies evaluating use of phage therapy in combination with checkpoint inhibitors are expected in the fourth quarter
of 2021.
For more information regarding
our product candidates, see Part I, Item 1 “Business” of our 2020 Annual Report.
COVID-19
On March 12, 2020, the World
Health Organization declared COVID-19 a global pandemic. In an effort to contain and mitigate the spread of COVID-19, many countries
have imposed unprecedented restrictions on travel, mandatory business closures and other measures designed to mitigate the spread, leading
to a substantial reduction in economic activities in countries around the world, resulting in certain disruptions to our business throughout
2020 and in 2021.
In response to the pandemic,
we have implemented the mandatory as well as recommended measures to safeguard the health and safety of our employees and clinical trial
participants, and the continuity of our business operations, including social distancing in our offices, a work from home policy for all
employees who are able to perform their duties remotely and restricting all nonessential travel, and we expect to continue to take actions
as may be required or recommended by government authorities or as we determine are in the best interests of our employees, clinical trial
participants and others in light of COVID-19. As of August 10, 2021, COVID-19 has not had a material impact on our results of operations. However,
uncertainty remains as to the potential impact of COVID-19 on our future research and development activities and the potential for a material
impact on the Company increases the longer the virus impacts certain aspects of economic activity around the world. The full extent to
which COVID-19 will directly or indirectly impact our business, results of operations and financial condition, including our ability to
fulfill our clinical trial enrollment needs, will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain, including as a result of new
information that may emerge concerning COVID-19 and the actions taken to contain it or treat COVID-19, as well as the economic impact
on local, regional, national and international markets, the ultimate geographic spread of the disease, the duration of the pandemic, travel
restrictions and social distancing in the United States and other countries, business closures or business disruptions, the ultimate impact
on financial markets and the global economy, the effectiveness of vaccines and vaccine distribution efforts and the effectiveness of other
actions taken in the United States and other countries to contain and treat the disease. During the second quarter of 2020, we updated
our guidance on the timing of certain clinical milestones partly due to the health and safety precautions we had taken and challenges
we continue to face in clinical trial enrollment due to COVID-19. It is not currently possible to predict how long the pandemic will last,
what the long-term global effects will be, or the time that it will take for economic activity to return to pre-pandemic levels, and we
do not yet know the full impact on our business and operations. We will continue to monitor COVID-19 closely and follow health and safety
guidelines as they evolve.

R&D expenses, net (net of grants received from the Israel Innovation
Authority, or the IIA, and considerations from research collaborations) were $3.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, compared
to $3.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The increase of $0.1 million, or 3%, is primarily due to increased expenses
related to conducting pre-clinical and clinical trials of our product candidates and an increase in stock-based compensation and salaries
and related expenses, mainly due to the growth in the number of employees in R&D and clinical activities, partially offset by an increase
in IIA grants that were recorded during the period. The Company recorded $2.6 million and $0.5 million of IIA grants and grants receivables
during the three months ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020, respectively.
General and administrative
expenses were $3.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, compared to $2.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020.
The increase of $0.8 million, or 35%, is primarily due to an increase in stock-based compensation and salaries and related expenses, mainly
due to the growth in the number of employees, due to an increase in expenses associated with operating as a public company, such as directors’
and officers’ insurance and due to expenses resulted from moving into new premises.
Financial expense, net was
$0.03 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, compared to financial income, net of $0.2 million for the three months ended June
30, 2020. The increase in financial expense, net of $0.23 million, or 115%, is primarily due to the USD/NIS exchange rate differences
and due to the decrease in interest rates on bank deposits and money market funds.
Basic and diluted loss per
share of Common Stock was $0.30 for the three months ended June 30, 2021, compared to $0.27 for the three months ended June 30, 2020.
The increase in diluted loss per shares of $0.03, or 11%, is primarily due to the increase in our general and administrative expenses
which resulted in a higher net loss.

Research and development expenses,
net (net of IIA grants and consideration from research collaborations) were $9.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared
to $7.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The increase of $2.3 million, or 32%, is primarily due to expenses related to
conducting pre-clinical and clinical trials of our product candidates and due to an increase in stock-based compensation and salaries
and related expenses, mainly due to the growth in the number of employees in R&D and clinical activities, offset by an increase in
IIA grants. The Company recorded $2.6 million and $0.5 million of IIA grants and grants receivables during the six months ended June 30,
2021 and June 30, 2020, respectively.
General and administrative
expenses were $5.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to $4.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The
increase of $1.2 million, or 27%, is primarily due to an increase in stock-based compensation and salaries and related expenses, mainly
due to the growth in the number of employees, due to an increase in expenses associated with operating as a public company, such as directors’
and officers’ insurance and due to expenses of moving into new premises.
Financial income, net was
$0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to $0.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The decrease of
$0.2 million, or 67%, is primarily due to the USD/NIS exchange rate differences and due to the decrease in interest rates on bank deposits
and money market funds.
Basic and diluted loss per
share of Common Stock was $0.65 for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to $0.53 for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The
decrease of $0.12, or 23%, is primarily due to the increase in our R&D expenses, net which resulted in a higher net loss.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We believe our cash and cash
equivalents on hand, including funds from the recently completed registered direct offering and the first tranche of the venture debt
facility, will be sufficient to meet our working capital and capital expenditure requirements until at least the middle of 2023. In the
future we will likely require or desire additional funds to support our operating expenses and capital requirements or for other purposes,
such as acquisitions, and may seek to raise such additional funds through public or private equity, such as the registered direct offering
discussed below or debt financings, loans such as the venture debt discussed below or collaborative agreements or from other sources,
as well as under the 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 we are unable to raise additional funds when or on the terms desired, our business, financial condition and results of operations
could be adversely affected.

Operating Activities
Net cash used in operating
activities for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was $12.8 million primarily due to a net loss of $15.7 million, offset by non-cash charges
of $2.5 million and changes in our operating assets and liabilities of $0.4 million. Non-cash charges for the six months ended June
30, 2021 consisted primarily of depreciation and amortization expenses of $1.1 million and stock-based compensation expenses in the amount
of $1.6 million, offset by changes in contingent considerations of $0.2 million. Net changes in our operating assets and liabilities consisted
primarily due to change in other current assets in the amount of $0.9 million, partially offset by a decrease in accounts payable of $0.3
million and a decrease in net change in operating leases of $0.2 million.
Net cash used in operating
activities for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $11.4 million primarily due to a net loss of $12.1 million and changes in our
operating assets and liabilities of $1.4 million, offset by non-cash charges of $2.1 million. Non-cash charges for the six months ended
June 30, 2020 consisted primarily of depreciation and amortization expenses of $1.0 million and stock-based compensation expenses of $1.0
million. Net changes in our operating assets and liabilities were primarily due to a change in other current assets of $1.2 million, partially
offset by a decrease in accounts payable of $2.6 million.
Investing Activities
During the six months ended
June 30, 2021, net cash provided by investing activities was $17.6 million, primarily as a result of liquidation of short-term deposits,
partially offset by purchases of property and equipment which consisted primarily of leasehold improvements and lab equipment as part
of construction work on our new in-house manufacturing facility, laboratories and offices.
During the six months ended June 30, 2020, net
cash used in investing activities was $0.9 million, primarily as a result of an increase in bank deposits and purchases of property and
equipment.
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
expenses, net in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. As of June 30, 2021, we had outstanding foreign exchange contracts
in the amount of approximately $4.0 million. As of June 30, 2020, we had no outstanding foreign exchange contracts.
Financing Activities
During the six months ended
June 30, 2021, net cash provided by financing activities was $5.2 million, primarily from issuance of Common Stock pursuant to the Open
Market Sales Agreement referred to below. In December 2020, pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-3 declared effective by the
Securities and Exchange Commission on December 11, 2020, we entered into an Open Market Sales Agreement, or the ATM Agreement, with Jefferies
LLC, or Jefferies, which provides that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions and limitations in the ATM Agreement, we may elect,
from time to time, to offer and sell shares of Common Stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $50,000,000 through Jefferies
acting as sales agent. We are not obligated to make any sales of Common Stock under the ATM Agreement. From January 1, 2021 through June
30, 2021, we issued an aggregate of 734,164 shares of Common Stock under the ATM Agreement for aggregate gross proceeds of $5,293,016.
From July 1, 2021 through August 10, 2021, we issued an aggregate of 9,800 shares of Common Stock pursuant to the ATM Agreement for aggregate
gross proceeds of $55,103. We may continue to sell shares under the ATM Agreement and otherwise to use our shelf registration statement
to raise additional funds from time to time.
During the six months ended June 30, 2020 net
cash provided by financing activities was $0.1 million, mainly as a result of exercise of stock options of $0.2 million offset by outflows
in connection with the Recapitalization Transaction of $0.1 million.
7
On July 28, 2021, we completed a transaction under a securities
purchase agreement, or the Securities Purchase Agreement, with certain institutional investors and all of our directors and certain of
our executive officers, or, collectively, the Investors, pursuant to which we issued and sold, in a registered direct offering, or the
Offering, directly to the Investors an aggregate of 3,750,000 units, with each unit consisting of one share of our shares of Common Stock,
and one warrant to purchase 0.75 of a share of Common Stock, at a purchase price of $4.00 per unit. The net proceeds from the Offering
amounted to $13.9 million, after the deduction of fees and Offering expenses and assuming no exercise of the warrants. The warrants will
be exercisable six months after the date of issuance, at an exercise price of $5.00 per share and will expire five years from the date
such warrants first become exercisable. The warrants will not be listed on the NYSE American Stock Market or any other exchange and no
trading market for the warrants is expected to develop. The Securities Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties
and agreements by us.
Additionally, in August 2021,
we entered into a loan and security agreement, or the Hercules Loan Agreement, with Hercules Capital, Inc., or Hercules, pursuant to which
a term loan in an aggregate principal amount up to $30.0 million, or the Term Loan, is available to us in three tranches. We expect to
receive $14.6 million, net of $0.4 million of closing charges, promptly after signing the agreement on August 16, 2021 and, subject to
certain conditions, two additional tranches of $10 million and $5 million will be available to us. See Item 5 .
of Part II of this Quarterly Report for more information regarding the Hercules Loan Agreement, which is incorporated herein by reference.
Outlook
We have accumulated a deficit
of $88.0 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, our liquidity resources as of June 30, 2021, which consisted
primarily of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of approximately $47.3 million together with the net proceeds from the Offering
and the first tranche of the Loan, will be sufficient to fund our operations into at least middle of 2023.
Consistent with our continuing
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 or debt securities, including under our ATM Agreement,
loans, including the Loan 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.
8
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of June 30, 2021, we did
not have any off-balance sheet arrangements, as defined in the rules and regulations of the SEC.
We entered into forward and
option contracts to hedge against the risk of overall changes in future cash flow from payments of salaries and related expenses, as well
as other expenses denominated in NIS, for a period of less than one year.
As of June 30, 2021, we had
outstanding foreign exchange contracts in the amount of approximately $4.0 million. As of June 30, 2020, we had no outstanding foreign
exchange contracts.
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, 2021.
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, 2021 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, 2020, 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, 2020,
filed with the SEC on March 31, 2021, except as noted below.
Risks related to the Hercules Loan Agreement
The terms of the Hercules
Loan Agreement place restrictions on our operating and financial flexibility. If we raise additional capital through debt financing, the
terms of any new debt could further restrict our ability to operate our business.
In August 2021, we entered
into Hercules Loan Agreement, providing for the Term Loan in an aggregate principal amount of up to $30.0 million, subject to funding
in three tranches and subject to certain terms and conditions. We expect to receive the first tranche of $15.0 million promptly after
signing the agreement in August 2021. Two additional tranches in the amounts of $10 million and $5 million may become available to us
to borrow upon the occurrence of certain milestone events. Our obligations under the Hercules Loan Agreement are secured by a lien on
substantially all of our assets, other than intellectual property. We also agreed not to pledge or secure our intellectual property to
others.
The Hercules Loan Agreement includes affirmative
and negative covenants and events of default applicable to us. The affirmative covenants include, among others, covenants requiring us
to maintain our legal existence and governmental approvals, deliver certain financial reports and maintain insurance coverage. The negative
covenants include, among others, restrictions on our transferring collateral, making changes to the nature of our business, incurring
additional indebtedness, engaging in mergers or acquisitions, paying dividends or making other distributions, making investments, engaging
in transactions with affiliates. Events of default include, among other things and subject to customary exceptions: (i) insolvency, liquidation,
bankruptcy or similar events; (ii) failure to pay any debts due under the Hercules Loan Agreement or other loan documents on a timely
basis; (iii) failure to observe certain covenants under the loan and security agreement with Hercules; (v) occurrence of a material adverse
effect; (vi) material misrepresentation by us; (vii) occurrence of any default under any other agreement involving material indebtedness;
and (viii) certain material money judgments. If we default under the Hercules Loan Agreement, Hercules may accelerate all of our repayment
obligations and take control of our pledged assets, potentially requiring us to renegotiate our agreement on terms less favorable to us
or to immediately cease operations. Further, if we are liquidated, the lenders’ right to repayment would be senior to the rights
of the holders of our common stock to receive any proceeds from the liquidation. Any declaration by Hercules of an event of default could
significantly harm our business and prospects and could cause the price of our common stock to decline. If we raise any additional debt
financing, the terms of such additional debt could further restrict our operating and financial flexibility.
10
Item 5. Other Information
Hercules Loan and Security
Agreement
On August 16 2021, or the
Closing Date, we entered into the Hercules Loan Agreement, with Hercules Capital, Inc. as agent, or Hercules, the several banks and other
financial institutions or entities from time to time parties to the Hercules Loan Agreement, or the Lenders, and BiomX Ltd. and RondinX
Ltd., or the Guarantors.
Amount . The Hercules
Loan Agreement provides for a term loan or loans in an aggregate principal amount of up to $30.0 million, or the Term Loan. The Term
Loan is subject to funding in three tranches, as follows: (a) on the Closing Date, a loan in the aggregate principal amount of $15.0
million, or the Tranche 1 Advance, (b) upon the occurrence of specified milestones and continuing through December 31, 2022, a loan in
the aggregate principal amount of up to $10.0 million, or the Tranche 2 Advance, and (c) upon the occurrence of specified milestones
and continuing through September 30, 2023, a loan in the aggregate principal amount of up to $5.0 million, or the Tranche 3 Advance.
Guarantee. Our obligations
under the Hercules Loan Agreement are guaranteed, jointly and severally by each of the Guarantors. The obligations of the Guarantors pursuant
to the Hercules Loan Agreement are absolute and unconditional joint and several, irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity, regularity
or enforceability of our or any other Guarantor’s obligations pursuant to the Hercules Loan Agreement.
Interest Rate, Fees .
The outstanding principal of the Term Loan bears interest at a per annum rate of interest equal to the greater of either (i) the prime
rate as reported in The Wall Street Journal plus 5.70%, and (ii) 8.95%, based on a year consisting of 360 days, with interest computed
daily based on the actual number of days elapsed. The Term Loan Interest Rate will float and change on the day the prime rate changes
from time to time. Interest is payable on a monthly basis on the first Business Day of each month. In addition, on the advance date for
the Tranche 2 Advance, we are required to pay a facility charge equal to one half of one percent (0.5%) of the principal amount of the
Tranche 2 Advance and on the advance date for the Tranche 3 Advance, we are required to pay a facility charge equal to one half of one
percent (0.5%) of the principal amount of the Tranche 3 Advance.
Use of Proceeds. We
intend to use the proceeds of the Term Loan for working capital purposes and general corporate purposes.
Maturity . The maturity
date of the Term Loan is the first day of the month that begins 48 months after the Closing Date, or the Term Loan Maturity Date .
However, if the Performance Milestone I is achieved, then the Term Loan Maturity Date shall be extended to the first day of the month
that begins 54 months after the Closing Date and if the Performance Milestone II is achieved, then the Term Loan Maturity Date shall be
extended to the first day of the month that begins 60 months after the Closing Date, provided, in each case, that if such day is not a
business day, then the Term Loan Maturity Date shall be the immediately preceding business day. In addition, upon the Term Loan Maturity
Date (or such earlier time that we elect to repay the Term Loan), we agreed to pay to Hercules a charge in the amount of 6.55% of the
aggregate principal amount of the Term Loan Advances made pursuant to the Hercules Loan Agreement.
Prepayment . We may,
at our option, prepay all but not less than all, of amounts withdrawn under the Hercules Loan Agreement at any time, upon seven (7) Business
Days’ written notice to Hercules by paying the entire principal balance, all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, together with
a prepayment charge determined as follows: if the Term Loan is prepaid (i) in any of the first twelve (12) months following the Closing
Date, 3.0%; (ii) after twelve (12) months but prior to twenty four (24) months, 2.0%; (iii) after twenty four (24) months but prior to
thirty-six (36) months following the Closing Date, 1.0%, and (iv) thereafter, 0%.
Security . Ours and
the Guarantor’s obligations under the Hercules Loan Agreement are secured by a security interest, senior to any current and future
debts and to any security interest, in all of ours and the Guarantors’ right, title, and interest in, to and under all of ours’
and the Guarantors’ personal property and other assets, other than intellectual property and other limited exceptions specified
in the Hercules Loan Agreement.
Covenants; Representations
and Warranties; Other Provisions . The Hercules Loan Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants, including
covenants by us and the Guarantors limiting additional indebtedness, liens, including on intellectual property, guaranties, mergers and
consolidations, substantial asset sales, investments and loans, certain corporate changes, transactions with affiliates and fundamental
changes.
Default Provisions .
The Hercules Loan Agreement provides for events of default customary for term loans of this type, including but not limited to non-payment,
breaches or defaults in the performance of covenants, material misrepresentations by us, insolvency, bankruptcy, occurrence of any default
under any other agreement involving material indebtedness and the occurrence of a material adverse effect on ours or the Guarantors’
business. After the occurrence and continuance of an event of default, Hercules has the option to (i) accelerate payment of all obligations
and terminate its (and any other lenders’) commitments under the Hercules Loan Agreement, (ii) sign and file our name any notices,
assignment or agreements necessary to perfect or protect repayment, or (iii) notify any of ours or the Guarantors’ account debtors
to make payment directly to Hercules.
