F- 6 BIOMX INC. NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (USD and NIS in thousands, except share and per share data) (unaudited) NOTE 1 – GENERAL General information BiomX Inc., (individually, and together with its subsidiaries, BiomX Ltd, (“BiomX Israel”) and RondinX Ltd., 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 15,069,058 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, units, and warrants are traded on the NYSE American under the symbols PHGE, PHGE.U, and PHGE.WS, respectively. 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 to a lesser degree on atopic dermatitis. BiomX discovers and validates proprietary bacterial targets and customizes phage compositions against these targets. The Company’s headquarters are located in Ness Ziona, Israel. To date, the Company has not generated revenue from its operations. Based on the Company’s current cash and commitments, management believes that the Company’s current cash and cash equivalents are sufficient to fund its operations for more than 12 months from the issuance date of these condensed consolidated financial statements and sufficient to fund its operations necessary to continue development activities. 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”) (See note 6 and 10) 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. If the Company is unable to raise capital when needed or on attractive terms, it may be forced to delay or reduce its research and development programs. If there are further increases in operating costs for facilities expansion, research and development and clinical activity, the Company will need to use mitigating actions such as to seek additional financing or postpone expenses that are not based on firm commitments. On May 24, 2022, the Company announced a corporate restructuring (the “Corporate Restructuring”), intended to extend the Company’s capital resources, while prioritizing the Company’s ongoing cystic fibrosis program and delaying the Company’s atopic dermatitis program. See notes 8A and 10D regarding the PIPE. F- 7 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 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, 2022, that the Company filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Committee (the “SEC”) on March 29, 2023. The year-end balance sheet data was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2022. 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The full extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic may directly or indirectly impact the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition will depend on future developments that are 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. D. Recent Accounting Standards Recently adopted accounting pronouncements In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update 2016-13, “Financial Instruments—Credit Losses—Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” This guidance replaces the current incurred loss impairment methodology with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. The guidance will be effective for smaller reporting companies (as defined by the rules under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) for the fiscal year beginning on January 1, 2023, including interim periods within that year. The Company adopted the guidance on January 1, 2023, and has concluded the adoption did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. 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 three months ended March 31, 2023 and year ended December 31, 2022. F- 8 BIOMX INC. NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (USD and NIS in thousands, except share and per share data) (unaudited) NOTE 3 – FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (Cont.) 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: March 31, 2023 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Fair Value Assets: Cash equivalents: Money market funds 23,897 - - 23,897 23,897 - - 23,897 Liabilities: Contingent consideration 152 152 Foreign exchange contracts payable - 95 - 95 - 95 152 247 December 31, 2022 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Fair Value Assets: Cash equivalents: Money market funds 27,824 - - 27,824 27,824 - 27,824 Liabilities: Contingent consideration - - 148 148 Foreign exchange contracts payable 55 55 - 55 148 203 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 3.60 % to 3.99 %. 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. The change in contingent consideration for the three months ended March 31, 2023 resulted from revaluation‏. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company did not record any expenses related to the contingent consideration liability. 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 March 31, 2023, the Company had outstanding foreign exchange contracts for the exchange of USD to NIS in the amount of approximately $ 4,647 with a fair value liability of $ 95 . As of December 31, 2022, the Company had outstanding foreign exchange contracts for the exchange of USD to NIS in the amount of approximately $ 4,547 with a fair value liability of $ 55 .

In March 2021, the IIA approved two new applications in relation to the Company’s cystic fibrosis product candidate for an aggregate budget of NIS 10,879 (approximately $ 3,286 ) and for the Company’s product candidate for Inflammatory Bowel Disease (“IBD”) and Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis for an aggregate revised budget of NIS 6,753 (approximately $ 2,118 ). The IIA committed to fund 30 % of the approved budgets. The programs are for the period beginning January 2021 through December 2021. Through March 31, 2023, the Company received NIS 4,284 (approximately $ 1,347 ) from the IIA with respect to these programs. See note 10B regarding funds received with respect to these programs after the balance sheet date. In August 2021, the 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 is for the period beginning July 2021 through June 2022. The program does not bear royalties. Through March 31, 2023, 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 is for the period beginning January 2022 through December 2022. Through March 31, 2023, 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 is for the period beginning January 2023 through December 2023. See note 10C regarding funds received with respect to these programs after the balance sheet date. F- 10 BIOMX INC. NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (USD and NIS in thousands, except share and per share data) (unaudited) NOTE 6 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (Cont.) 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 dollar. 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 March 31, 2023; therefore, no liability was recorded in these condensed consolidated financial statements. IIA grants are recorded as a reduction of R&D expenses, net. Through March 31, 2023, total grants approved from the IIA aggregated to approximately $ 9,353 (NIS 32,068 ). Through March 31, 2023, the Company had received an aggregate amount of $ 6,960 (NIS 23,645 ) in the form of grants from the IIA. Total grants subject to royalties’ payments aggregated to approximately $ 6,370 . As of March 31, 2023, the Company had a contingent obligation to the IIA in the amount of approximately $ 6,640 including annual interest of LIBOR linked to the dollar. The United Kingdom’s Financial Conduct Authority, which regulates LIBOR, announced in July 2017 that it will no longer persuade or require banks to submit rates for LIBOR after 2021. Even though the IIA has not declared the alternative benchmark rate to replace the LIBOR, the Company does not expect it will have significant impact on its financial statements. B. On June 23, 2022 (“Effective Date”), BiomX Israel entered into a new research collaboration agreement with Boehringer Ingelheim International GmbH (“BI”) for a collaboration to identify biomarkers for IBD. 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 will be paid in instalments of $500 within 30 days of the Effective Date and three additional installments of $500, $200 and $211 upon completion of certain activities under the research plan. Unless terminated earlier, this agreement will remain in effect until (a) a period of eighteen (18) months after the Effective Date or (b) completion of the project plan and submission and approval of the final report, whichever occurs sooner, unless otherwise extended. 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. The remainder of the consideration is recorded as other accounts payable in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company recorded $125 in the condensed consolidated statements of operations as a reduction of R&D expenses. Through March 31, 2023, the Company received total funds of $500 from BI with respect to this agreement. See note 10A regarding funds received after the balance sheet date. F- 11 BIOMX INC. NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (USD and NIS in thousands, except share and per share data) (unaudited) NOTE 7 – LONG-TERM DEBT On August 16, 2021, 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, Hercules provided the Company with access to a term loan with an aggregate principal amount of up to $ 30,000 (the “Term Loan Facility”), available in three tranches, subject to certain terms and conditions. The first tranche of $ 15,000 was advanced to the Company on the date the Loan Agreement was executed. Upon the occurrence of specified milestones and continuing through December 31, 2022, a loan in the aggregate principal amount of up to $ 10,000 (“the second tranche”), would have become available, and upon the occurrence of specified milestones and continuing through September 30, 2023, a loan in the aggregate principal amount of up to $ 5,000 (“the third tranche”), may become available. The milestones for the second tranche and for the extension of the period of interest only payments to September 1, 2023, were not reached and have expired. The milestones for the third tranche have not yet been reached as of March 31, 2023 and the Company does not expect to reach them. 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 Company may prepay advances under the Loan Agreement, in whole or in part, at any time subject to a prepayment charge equal to: (a) 3.0 % of amounts prepaid, if such prepayment occurs during the first 12 months following the Closing Date; (b) 2.0% after 12 months but prior to 24 months; (c) 1.0% after 24 months but prior to 36 months, and (d) no charge after 36 months. Upon prepayment or repayment of all or any of the term loans under the Term Loan Facility, the Company is 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. Interest on the term 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 31, 2023, the Prime Rate was 8.00 %. Interest expense is calculated using the effective interest method and is inclusive of non-cash amortization of capitalized loan issuance costs. Debt issuance costs are recorded on the consolidated balance sheet as a reduction of liabilities. Amounts allocated to the debt, net of issuance cost, are subsequently recognized at amortized cost using the effective interest method. On March 31, 2023, the effective interest rate was 16.79 %. As of March 31, 2023, the carrying value of the term loan consists of $ 14,581 principal outstanding less the debt discount and issuance costs of approximately $ 59 . The End of Term Charge of $ 983 is recognized over the life of the term loan as interest expense using the effective interest method. The debt issuance costs have been recorded as a debt discount which is being accreted to interest expense through the maturity date of the term loan. Interest expense relating to the term loan, which is included in interest expense in the condensed statements of operations was $ 565 and $ 461 for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Under the terms of the Loan Agreement, the Company granted first priority liens and security interests in substantially all of the Company’s intellectual property as collateral for the obligations thereunder. The Company also granted Hercules the right, at their discretion, to participate in any closing of any single subsequent broadly marketed financing as defined up to a maximum aggregate amount of $ 2,000 under the terms as afforded to other investors in such financing. The Loan Agreement also contains representations and warranties by the Company and Hercules, indemnification provisions in favor of Hercules and customary affirmative and negative covenants, including a liquidity covenant beginning October 1, 2022, requiring the Company to maintain a minimum aggregate compensating cash balance of $ 5,000 , and events of default, including a material adverse change in the Company’s business, payment defaults, breaches of covenants following any applicable cure period, and a material impairment in the perfection or priority of Hercules’ security interest in the collateral. In the event of default by the Company under the Loan Agreement, the Company may be required to repay all amounts then outstanding under the Loan Agreement. Future principal payments for the long-term debt are as follows: March 31, 2023 2023 $ 3,842 2024 5,785 2025 4,954 Total principal payments 14,581 Unamortized discount and debt issuance costs ( 59 ) Total future principal payments $ 14,522 Current portion of long-term debt ( 5,216 ) Long-term debt, net $ 9,306 F- 12 BIOMX INC. NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (USD and NIS in thousands, except share and per share data) (unaudited) NOTE 8 – 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”, and collectively, the “Securities”) at a price of $0.245 per share and $0.244 per Pre-Funded Warrant, through a private investment in public equity financing (“PIPE”). The gross proceeds from this offering are approximately $7,484, before deducting issuance costs. The financing closed in two parts. The first closing, which covers 3,199,491 shares of Common Stock and 2,776,428 Pre-Funded Warrants for gross proceeds of $1,469, occurred on February 27, 2023. Such Pre-Funded Warrants became exercisable on February 27, 2023, at an exercise price of $0.001 per share of Common Stock and have no expiration date. At the first closing the Company raised net proceeds of $1,293, after deducting issuance costs of $176. The second closing for the remaining Securities, which was contingent upon approval of the issuance of the additional Securities under the Securities Purchase Agreement by the Company’s stockholders in accordance with NYSE American rules, occurred on May 4, 2023. See note 10D. The exercise of the outstanding Pre-Funded Warrants is subject to a beneficial ownership limitation between 9.90 %- 9.99 %, The exercise price and number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants are subject to adjustment in the event of any stock dividends, stock splits, reverse stock split and reclassification, as described in the agreements. Pursuant to the sole discretion of the holder, the Pre-Funded Warrants may be exercisable on a “cashless” basis. The Pre-Funded Warrants were classified as a component of stockholders’ equity. 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 three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company did not sell any shares of Common Stock under the ATM Agreement. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company sold 27,171 shares of Common Stock under the ATM Agreement, at an average price of $1.36 per share, raising aggregate net proceeds of approximately $37, after deducting an aggregate commission of $1. Maruho Agreement: In October 2021, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with a subsidiary of Maruho Co. Ltd., (“Maruho”), a leading dermatology-focused pharmaceutical company in Japan, pursuant to which the Company issued to Maruho 375,000 shares of Common Stock at a price of $ 8.00 per share for gross proceeds of $ 3,000 . The Company also granted Maruho a right of first offer to license its atopic dermatitis product candidate, BX005, in Japan. The right of first offer will commence following the availability of results from the Phase 1/2 study initially expected in 2022. The Company applied ASC 606 by analogy to the agreements. The agreements were combined into a single unit of account for the purpose of applying ASC 606. Part of the consideration paid under the agreements, equal to the grant date fair value of the shares issued to Maruho of $ 1,024 , was attributed to the issuance of shares and accounted for as an increase in equity. 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. Following the Company’s announcement on May 24, 2022, regarding the delaying of the Company’s atopic dermatitis program, the contract liability was classified as a non-current liability.

Share Capital: (Cont.) CFF Agreement: In December 2021, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation (“CF Foundation”), an organization that historically played a role in supporting the development of innovative therapies for patients suffering from cystic fibrosis (CF). Under the terms of the agreement, the Company will receive up to $5,000 in two tranches. In the first tranche, which closed and fully received on December 21, 2021, the CF Foundation invested $3,000 as an initial equity investment based on a share price of $2.57. Upon completion of patient dosing in Part 1 of the Company’s Phase 1b/2a study of BX004, the Company had the right to receive the second tranche of $2,000, also as an equity investment. In the event that the average closing price of the Common Stock for the ten trading days prior to the second tranche completion is less than $2.57, the Company had the right in its sole discretion to waive the second tranche payment and in such event the CF Foundation would not have any right to receive additional shares. Ultimately, the CF Foundation decided to participate in the PIPE and invested an aggregate amount of $2,000 and the Company waived the right to receive the second tranche of $2,000 mentioned above. 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”).

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 three months ended March 31, 2023 does not include 6,114,600 , 9,215,475 and 4,000,000 of shares underlying options, shares underlying warrants and contingent shares, respectively, because the effect would be anti-dilutive. The calculation of the loss per share includes 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.

F- 16 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 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 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. 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. 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 May 24, 2022, we announced a corporate restructuring, or the Corporate Restructuring, whereby we plan to prioritize the CF program and delay the Company’s atopic dermatitis, or AD program. The Corporate Restructuring was intended to extend the Company’s capital resources and included the laying off of approximately 42% of our employees. 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 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 (CFU) 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 emerging resistance to BX004 during or after treatment with BX004; and there was no detectable effect on % predicted FEV1 (Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second). Part 2 of the Phase 1b/2a trial is designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of BX004 in 24 CF patients randomized to a treatment or placebo cohort in a 2:1 ratio. Results from Part 2 are expected in the third quarter of 2023. 2 Atopic Dermatitis BX005 is our topical phage product candidate targeting Staphylococcus aureus, or S. aureus, a bacterium associated with the development and exacerbation of inflammation in AD. S. aureus is more abundant on the skin of AD patients than on the skin of healthy individuals and on lesional skin than nonlesional 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 March 31, 2021, we announced the selection of the phage cocktail for BX005. We are currently supporting a range of pre-clinical activities to move this program forward and working on evaluating timelines for a clinical trial. On April 8, 2022, the FDA approved our investigational new drug application for BX005. Programs on hold Inflammatory Bowel Disease and Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis In November 2020, we combined our inflammatory bowel disease and primary sclerosing cholangitis programs to create a single product candidate called BX003, which targets K. pneumoniae to treat both diseases. Previously, we had separate candidates named BX002 and BX003. In February 2021, a Phase 1a pharmacokinetic study of BX002 demonstrated that it was safe and well-tolerated with no serious adverse events, and with high concentrations of viable phage delivered to the gastrointestinal tract. On November 15, 2021, we announced that we paused development efforts for BX003 due to prioritizing resources towards our CF and AD programs, and we cannot currently provide guidance on resuming its development. Colorectal Cancer 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. On November 15, 2021, we announced that we have paused development efforts for this program due to prioritizing resources towards our CF and AD programs, and we cannot provide guidance on resuming its development COVID-19 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. As of May 11, 2023, 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. We will continue to monitor COVID-19 closely and follow health and safety guidelines as they evolve. 3 Consolidated Results of Operations Comparison of the Three Months Ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 The following table summarizes our consolidated results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022: Three Months ended March 31, 2023 2022 USD in thousands Research and development (“R&D”) expenses, net 4,564 4,929 Amortization of intangible assets - 380 General and administrative expenses 1,644 2,477 Operating loss 6,208 7,786 Other income (91 ) Interest expenses 565 461 Finance income, net (327 ) (87 ) Loss before tax 6,355 8,160 Tax expenses 6 9 Net loss 6,361 8,169 Basic and diluted loss per share of Common Stock 0.20 0.27 Weighted average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding, basic and diluted 32,125,227 29,754,240 R&D expenses, net (net of grants received from the IIA, and consideration from research collaborations) were $4.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to $4.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The decrease of $0.3 million, or 6%, is primarily due to reduced salaries and related expenses and stock-based compensation expenses that resulted from a reduction in workforce, as part of the Corporate Restructuring and due to the delay in pre-clinical and clinical activities related to our AD product candidate, BX005, partially offset by expenses related to conducting the clinical trial of our CF product candidate, BX004. The Company recorded $0.3 and $0.4 million of IIA grants during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Amortization of intangible assets ended on December 31, 2022 as the intangible asset was fully amortized. General and administrative expenses were $1.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to $2.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The decrease of $0.9 million, or 36%, is primarily due to reduced salaries and related expenses and stock-based compensation expenses due to a reduction in the workforce, as part of the Corporate Restructuring, as well as a decrease in the Company’s directors and officers insurance premium. Interest expenses were $0.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The increase of $0.1 million, or 20%, is due to an increasing interest rate under our loan from Hercules Capital, Inc., or the Hercules Loan, entered into in August 2021. Finance income, net was $327,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to $87,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The increase in finance income, net of $240,000, or 276%, is primarily due to the rising interest rates, which resulted in higher interest income and due to appreciation of the U.S. dollar against the NIS. Basic and diluted loss per share of Common Stock was $0.20 for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to $0.27 for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The decrease in diluted loss per share of $0.07, or 26%, is due to a decrease in our operating loss and due to the increase in outstanding shares resulting from the first closing of the PIPE in February 2023. 4 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 until into the third quarter of 2024. We have revised our operating plans in order to reduce expenses including the Corporate Restructuring, which significantly reduced our expenses related to employees, and, subleasing a portion of our office space in Ness Ziona, Israel. We currently plan to continue to focus primarily on BX004, our product candidate for CF and continue our efforts to advance the development plan of BX005, our product candidate for AD. Although we recently completed the PIPE, in the future we will likely require or desire additional funds to support our operating expenses, capital requirements, resumption of our development plans for BX003 or our development plan in CRC or for other purposes. 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 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 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. Cash Flows The following table summarizes our sources and uses of cash for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022: Three Months Ended March 31, 2023 2022 USD in thousands Net cash used in operating activities (5,045 ) (7,363 ) Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities 1,990 (10,020 ) Net cash provided by financing activities 1,050 37 Effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash 13 (4 ) Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents (1,992 ) (17,350 ) Operating Activities Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $5.0 million primarily due to a net loss of $6.4 million, mostly due to our R&D and general and administrative expenses, and due to changes in our operating assets and liabilities of $1.0 million, offset by non-cash charges of $0.3 million. Non-cash charges for the three months ended March 31, 2023 consisted primarily of depreciation and amortization expenses of $0.2 million and stock-based compensation expenses in the amount of $0.2 million. Net changes in our operating assets and liabilities consisted primarily of an increase in trade accounts payable of $0.4 million and in other accounts payable in the amount of $0.8 million, partially offset by an increase in other current assets in the amount of $0.2 million. Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $7.4 million primarily due to a net loss of $8.2 million, mostly due to our R&D and general and administrative expenses, and due to changes in our operating assets and liabilities of $0.6 million, offset by non-cash charges of $1.4 million. Non-cash charges for the three months ended March 31, 2022 consisted primarily of depreciation and amortization expenses of $0.6 million and stock-based compensation expenses in the amount of $0.6 million. Net changes in our operating assets and liabilities consisted primarily of a decrease in trade accounts payable of $1.4 million and in other accounts payable in the amount of $0.2 million, partially offset by an increase in other current assets in the amount of $1.2 million. 5 Investing Activities During the three months ended March 31, 2023, net cash provided by investing activities was $2.0 million, mainly consisting of proceeds from short-term deposits of $2.0 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, net cash used in investing activities was $10.0 million, as a result of investment in short-term deposits of $10.0 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 March 31, 2023, we had outstanding foreign exchange contracts for the exchange of USD to NIS in the amount of approximately $4.6 million with a fair value of $0.09 million. As of March 31, 2022, we had outstanding foreign exchange contracts for the exchange of USD to NIS in the amount of approximately $6.8 million with a fair value of $0.04 million. Financing Activities During the three months ended March 31, 2023, net cash provided by financing activities was $1.1 million, mainly consisting of the issuance of Common Stock in the first closing of the PIPE of $1.5 million, partially offset by the repayment of long-term debt of $0.4 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, net cash provided by financing activities was $37,000, from the issuance of Common Stock pursuant to the ATM 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 (subsequently reduced to $19,950,000) through Jefferies acting as sales agent. We are not obligated to make any sales of Common Stock under the ATM Agreement. From January 1, 2023 through May 9, 2023, we did not issue any shares of Common Stock under the ATM Agreement. We may continue to sell shares under the ATM Agreement and otherwise use our effective shelf registration statement to raise additional funds from time to time. Under the Loan Agreement, we have a Term Loan Facility, available in three tranches, subject to certain terms and conditions. The first tranche of $15.0 million was advanced to us on the date the Loan Agreement was executed. 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 (“the second tranche”), would have become available, and 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 (“the third tranche”), may have become available. The milestones for the second tranche and for the extension of the period of interest only payments to September 1, 2023, were not reached and have expired. The milestones for the third tranche have not yet been reached as of March 31, 2023 and we do not expect to reach them. 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 through September 1, 2025. 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 31, 2022, the Prime Rate was 8.00%. On March 31, 2023, the effective interest rate was 16.79%. Under the terms of the Loan Agreement, we granted first priority liens and security interests in substantially all of our intellectual property as collateral for the obligations thereunder. We also granted Hercules the right, at their discretion, to participate in any closing of any single subsequent broadly marketed financing as defined up to a maximum aggregate amount of $2.0 million under the terms as afforded to other investors in such financing. The Loan Agreement also contains representations and warranties by us and Hercules, indemnification provisions in favor of Hercules and customary affirmative and negative covenants, including a liquidity covenant beginning October 1, 2022, requiring us to maintain a minimum aggregate compensating cash balance of $5.0 million, and events of default. In the event of default by us under the Loan Agreement, we may be required to repay all amounts then outstanding under the Loan Agreement. As of March 31, 2023, we believe we were in compliance with all covenants under the Loan Agreement. On February 22, 2023, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement to issue and sell an aggregate of 15,997,448 shares of our Common Stock and 14,610,714 Pre-Funded Warrants at a price of $0.245 per share and $0.244 per Pre-Funded Warrant, through the PIPE. The gross proceeds from this offering are approximately $7.5 million, before deducting issuance costs. The financing closed in two parts. The first closing, which covers 3,199,491 shares of Common Stock and 2,776,428 Pre-Funded Warrants for gross proceeds of approximately $1.5 million, occurred on February 27, 2023. Such Pre-Funded Warrants became exercisable on February 27, 2023, at an exercise price of $0.001 per share of Common Stock and have no expiration date. In the first closing, we raised net proceeds of approximately $1.3 million, after deducting issuance costs of $0.2 million. The second closing for the remaining Securities was contingent upon approval of the issuance of the additional Securities under the Securities Purchase Agreement by our stockholders in accordance with NYSE American rules, which approval occurred on April 24, 2023. The second closing, which covered 12,797,957 shares of Common Stock and 11,834,286 Pre-Funded Warrants for gross proceeds of approximately $6.0 million, occurred on May 4, 2023. In the second closing, we raised gross proceeds of approximately $6.0 million, before deducting issuance costs. 6 Outlook We have accumulated a deficit of $143.2 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 March 31, 2023, which consisted primarily of cash, cash equivalents, short-term deposits and restricted cash of approximately $30.3 million and the additional proceeds following closing of the second part of the PIPE in the amount of approximately $6 million will be sufficient to fund our operations until into the third quarter of 2024. 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 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. 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 March 31, 2023, we had outstanding foreign exchange contracts for the exchange of USD to NIS in the amount of approximately $4.6 million. As of March 31, 2022, we had outstanding foreign exchange contracts in the amount of approximately $6.8 million. Item 3.
