Release Details

NETANYA, Israel, July 28, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- BiomX Inc. (NYSE American: PHGE) ("BiomX" or the "Company"), a company focused on defense, security, and critical infrastructure technologies, today announced an amendment to the promissory note related to its April 2026 acquisition of Zorronet Ltd. from Water.IO Ltd. (TASE: WATR) (“Water.IO”). The amended terms are intended to provide BiomX with additional flexibility for its remaining payments to Water.IO.

As part of the amendment, BiomX will issue 800,000 restricted shares of common stock to Water IO in consideration of the extension and in satisfaction of accrued interest, subject to customary conditions, including any required approvals. The revised structure enables BiomX to continue supporting the advancement of Zorronet's technology and business while preserving the remaining cash consideration owed to Water IO under an amended schedule.

"This agreement gives us additional flexibility in the timing of our remaining payments at an important stage in Zorronet's development," said Michael Oster, CEO of BiomX. "We believe supporting the company's continued advancement now is the best way to strengthen its long-term potential. Water.IO's decision to accept BiomX equity and revise the cash payment schedule reflects its support for this strategy and further aligns both parties around Zorronet's future success."

Its technology enables near real-time detection, classification, and prioritization of threats, and is already deployed with defense forces, rail operators, government customers, and Tier-1 defense OEMs

Under the amended terms, the final maturity date of the $1.25 million promissory note held by Water.IO Ltd. has been extended to November 1, 2026. BiomX will make an initial principal payment of $250,000, followed by four equal monthly instalments of $250,000 each.
