NETANYA, Israel, March 27, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- BiomX Inc. (NYSE American: PHGE) (the “Company”) today announced that on March 25, 2026, the Company received a notice from the staff of NYSE American LLC (the “NYSE American”) that the Company was not in compliance with the NYSE American’s continued listing standards in Part 10, Section 1003(a)(i), (ii), and (iii) of the NYSE American Company Guide (the “Company Guide”), requiring a company to have stockholders’ equity of at least $2.0 million if it has reported losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in two of its three most recent fiscal years, Section 1003(a)(ii) of the Company Guide requiring a company to have stockholders’ equity of at least $4.0 million if it has reported losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in three of its four most recent fiscal years and Section 1003(a)(iii) of the Company Guide requiring a company to have stockholders’ equity at least $6.0 million if it has reported losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in its five most recent fiscal years. The Notice also indicates that the Company is also not currently eligible for any exemption in Section 1003(a) of the Company Guide (including the exemption provided for companies with total value of market capitalization exceeding $50 million among other things).
In connection with its non-compliance with Section 1003(a)(i), Section 1003(a)(ii) and Section 1003(a)(iii), the Company must submit a plan (the “Plan”) to the NYSE American by April 24, 2026, advising of actions it has taken or will take to regain compliance with the continued listing standards by September 25, 2027. If the NYSE American determines to accept the Plan, the Company will be notified in writing and will be subject to periodic reviews, including quarterly monitoring for compliance with the Plan. If the Company does not submit a plan or if the Plan is not accepted, NYSE American will commence delisting proceedings. Furthermore, if the Plan is accepted but the Company is not in compliance with the continued listing standards by September 25, 2027, or if the Company does not make progress consistent with the Plan, the NYSE American will initiate delisting proceedings as appropriate. The Company may appeal a staff delisting determination in accordance with Section 1010 and Part 12 of the Company Guide.
The Notice has no immediate effect on the listing or trading of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”), and the Common Stock will continue to trade on the NYSE American under the symbol “PHGE.”
The Company’s receipt of the Notice does not affect the Company’s business, operations or reporting requirements with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company’s management is reviewing its options to address the deficiencies and expects to submit a compliance plan on or before the deadline set by the NYSE American.
Additionally, as previously disclosed in its annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 19, 2026, the audit opinion contained a going concern qualification from the Company's independent registered public accounting firm.
