Ness Ziona, Israel, February 26, 2025 -- (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --

BiomX Inc. (NYSE American: PHGE, the "Company" or "BiomX"), a clinical-stage company advancing novel natural and

engineered phage therapies that target specific pathogenic bacteria, today announced that it has entered into a securities purchase agreement

with investors in connection with a registered direct offering, concurrent private placement of the Company's securities, and simultaneous

exercise of certain existing common stock purchase warrants (collectively, the "Offerings") for expected aggregate gross proceeds

of approximately $12 million to the Company, before deducting placement agent fees and other offering expenses. The Company intends to

use the net proceeds from the Offerings to support the completion of the Phase 2b clinical study of BX004, BiomX's fixed phage cocktail,

for the treatment of people with CF with chronic pulmonary infections caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa), and analysis

of real-world evidence. The Company expects to report topline results from the Phase 2b study in Q1 2026. The Offerings were led by Deerfield

Management Company and included significant participation from the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, with additional participation from Nantahala

Capital and other investors. The Offerings are expected to close on or about February 27, 2025, subject to the satisfaction of customary

"Following these offerings, we expect to have sufficient funding

to reach substantial inflection points including topline results of our Phase 2b study of BX004 in Q1 2026 and our Phase 2 readout for

BX211 in Diabetic Foot Osteomyelitis later this quarter," said Jonathan Solomon, BiomX's Chief Executive Officer. "Peer-reviewed

publications report findings supporting the link between P. aeruginosa reduction and improved clinical outcomes in people with

CF. Following communication with the FDA we intend to present our plans to analyze real-world evidence and attain endorsement that supports

potential future regulatory filings. We anticipate further discussion with the FDA and European Committee for Medicinal Products for Human

Use (CHMP) later this year to discuss our proposed plan. To date, the FDA has granted BX004 Fast Track designation and Orphan Drug Designation."

Laidlaw & Company (UK) Ltd. acted as sole placement agent for the

Offerings. Haynes and Boone, LLP served as legal counsel to BiomX. Sullivan & Worcester LLP served as legal counsel to Laidlaw.

Terms of the Offerings

Under the securities purchase agreement, the investors have agreed

to purchase an aggregate of 3,633,514 shares of the Company's common stock (or registered pre-funded warrants in lieu thereof) in

a registered direct offering at an effective purchase price of $0.9306 per share of common stock (or registered pre-funded warrants in

lieu thereof). In a concurrent private placement, the investors have agreed to purchase unregistered pre-funded warrants to purchase up

to an aggregate of 2,305,871 shares of the Company's common stock at the same effective purchase price. Each share of common stock

(or registered pre-funded warrant in lieu thereof) and each unregistered pre-funded warrant will be accompanied by one unregistered warrant

to purchase one share of the Company's common stock (or 5,939,385 shares in the aggregate).

Exercise of the unregistered pre-funded warrants are subject to stockholder

approval and such warrants will be exercisable until exercised in full. Exercise of the unregistered warrants are subject to stockholder

approval and such warrants will be exercisable for a period of five years following the stockholder approval date.

The Company also has agreed with holders of certain existing warrants

to purchase up to an aggregate of 6,955,527 shares of the Company's common stock, which warrants were issued on March 15, 2024 with

an exercise price of $2.311 per share and expiration date of July 6, 2026, to amend such warrants effective upon the closing of the Offerings

so that the amended warrants will have a reduced exercise price of $0.9306 per share. Such holders have agreed to exercise such warrants

for common stock (or pre-funded warrants in lieu thereof) as part of the Offerings. As consideration for exercising the existing warrants

at the reduced exercise price, the Company agreed to issue to the holders of the existing warrants new warrants exercisable for up to

a number of shares of the Company's common stock equal to 100% of the number of shares of common stock issued upon the exercise

of the existing warrants. Exercise of the new warrants are subject to stockholder approval and such warrants will not be exercisable until

the stockholder approval date and will expire five years following the stockholder approval date.

The offer and sale in the registered direct offering of the shares

of the Company's common stock, registered pre-funded warrants and shares of common stock underlying the registered pre-funded warrants

are being made by the Company pursuant to a "shelf" registration statement on Form S-3 (333-275935), including a base prospectus,

initially filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on December 7, 2023 and declared effective by the

SEC on January 2, 2024 and a prospectus supplement that forms a part of the registration statement. The prospectus supplement relating

to the registered direct offering will be filed with the SEC and will be available at the SEC's website located at http://www.sec.gov.

The unregistered pre-funded warrants, unregistered warrants and the

new warrants described above were offered in a private placement under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the

"Act") and/or Regulation D promulgated thereunder. The Company has agreed to file one or more registration statements with

the SEC covering the resale of the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the unregistered pre-funded warrants, unregistered

warrants and new warrants. This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall

there be any sale of securities of BiomX in any state or other jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful

prior to the registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction.

BiomX is developing BX004, a fixed multi-phage cocktail, for the treatment of people with CF with chronic pulmonary infections caused

by P. aeruginosa, a main contributor to morbidity and mortality in people with CF. In November 2023, BiomX announced positive

topline results from Part 2 of the Phase 1b/2a trial where BX004 demonstrated improvement in pulmonary function associated with a reduction

in P. aeruginosa burden compared to placebo in a predefined subgroup of patients with reduced lung function (baseline FEV1<70%).

BiomX expects to initiate a randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled, multi-center Phase 2b trial in CF patients with chronic P.

aeruginosa pulmonary infections. The trial is designed to enroll approximately 60 patients randomized at a 2:1 ratio to BX004 or

placebo. Treatment is expected to be administered via inhalation twice daily for a duration of 8 weeks. The trial is designed to monitor

the safety and tolerability of BX004 and is designed to demonstrate improvement in microbiological reduction of P. aeruginosa

burden and evaluation of effects on clinical parameters such as lung function measured by FEV1 and patient reported outcomes. Pending

progress of the trial, topline results are expected in the first quarter of 2026. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA")

has granted BX004 Fast Track designation and Orphan Drug Designation.

BX211 is a personalized phage treatment for the treatment of DFO associated with S. aureus. The personalized phage treatment

tailors a specific phage selected from a proprietary phage-bank according to the specific strain of S. aureus biopsied

and isolated from each patient. DFO is a bacterial infection of the bone that usually develops from an infected foot ulcer and is a leading

cause of amputation in patients with diabetes.

The ongoing randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled,

multi-center Phase 2 trial investigating the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of BX211 for subjects with DFO associated with S.

aureus has finished enrollment for a randomized at a 2:1 ratio to BX211 or placebo. BX211 or placebo is designed to be administered

weekly, by topical and IV route at Week 1 and by the topical route only at each of Weeks 2-12. Over the 12-week treatment period, all

subjects are expected to continue to be treated in accordance with standard of care which will include antibiotic treatment as appropriate.

A first readout of study topline results is expected at Week 13 evaluating healing of the wound associated with osteomyelitis, followed

by a second readout at Week 52 evaluating amputation rates and resolution of osteomyelitis based on X-ray, clinical assessments, and

established biomarkers (ESR and CRP). These readouts are expected in the first quarter of 2025 and the first quarter of 2026, respectively.

BiomX is a clinical-stage company leading the development of natural

and engineered phage cocktails and personalized phage treatments designed to target and destroy harmful bacteria for the treatment of

chronic diseases with substantial unmet needs. BiomX discovers and validates proprietary bacterial targets and applies its BOLT ("BacteriOphage

Lead to Treatment") platform to customize phage compositions against these targets. For more information, please visit www.biomx.com,
