NOTE 10 – STOCKHOLDERS EQUITY
Private Investment in Public Equity:
On February 22, 2023, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement to issue and sell an aggregate of 1,599,746 shares of its Common Stock and 1,461,072 pre-funded warrants (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”) at a price of $2.45 per share and $2.44 per Pre-Funded Warrant in a private placement (the “February 2023 PIPE”). The net proceeds from the PIPE were approximately $7,152, after deducting issuance costs of $333. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, 533,031 Pre-Funded Warrants were exercised into 533,031 shares of Common Stock for total consideration of $6 at an exercise price of $0.01 per share of Common Stock, and 928,041 Pre-Funded Warrants were exercised into 925,607 shares of Common Stock through cashless mechanism with consideration. As of September 30, 2024, there are no outstanding Pre-Funded Warrants.
On March 15, 2024, in connection with the Acquisition, the Company issued to APT’s former stockholders 916,497 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, 40,470 Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares and Merger Warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 216,650 shares of the Company Common Stock. See Note 1D for further information.
Concurrently with the consummation of the Acquisition as described in Note 1D, the Company entered into the March 2024 PIPE, pursuant to which such investors purchased an aggregate of 216,417 Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares (“PIPE Preferred Shares”) and Private Placement Warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 10,820,850 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, at a combined price of $231.10 per share. The PIPE Preferred Shares and the Private Placement Warrants were issued in a private placement pursuant to an exemption from registration requirements under the Securities Act for aggregate gross proceeds of $50,000. Each Private Placement Warrant’s exercise price equals to $2.31, subject to customary adjustments for stock dividends, stock splits, reclassifications and the like, became exercisable from the date of the receipt of BiomX stockholder approval, which was obtained on July 9, 2024, and will expire on July 9, 2026. Under certain circumstances, the Company may be required to pay to each holder of the Private Placement Warrants (i) an amount in cash equal to the holder’s total purchase price for the shares of Common Stock purchased (the “Buy-In Price”) or credit such holder’s balance account with the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) for such shares of Common Stock shall terminate, or (ii) promptly honor its obligation to deliver to such holder a certificate or certificates representing such shares of Common Stock or credit such holder’s balance account with DTC, as applicable, and pay cash to such holder in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Buy-In Price over the product of (A) such number of shares of Common Stock, times (B) Weighted Average Price (as defined in the Private Placement Warrant) on the trading day immediately preceding the exercise date.
The Company accounted for the Private Placement Warrants as liabilities as the Private Placement Warrants are not considered indexed to the entity’s own stock based on the provision of ASC 815. The Private Placement Warrants will be measured at fair value at inception and in subsequent reporting periods with changes in fair value recognized in the condensed consolidated statements.
The terms of the PIPE Preferred Shares are substantially the same as those of the Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares issued under the Acquisition and were accounted for as temporary equity at the issuance date and were reclassified as equity. See Note 1D for further information. On July 15, 2024, 109,152 Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares that were issued under the Acquisition and the March 2024 PIPE were converted into 10,915,200 shares of the Company’s Common Stock according to beneficial ownership limitations set by certain investors.
In connection therewith, the Company issued warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s Common Stock to the Placement Agents (the “Agents Warrants”). See Note 10B for further information.
The Company allocated the total consideration from the issuance of the 2024 March PIPE first to the fair value of the Private Placement Warrants and then to the PIPE Preferred Shares. The Company had transaction costs of approximately $3,317 out of which $1,273 is Stock-Based Compensation due to issuance of the Agents Warrants. The transaction costs were allocated in the same manner as the consideration. Issuance costs which were allocated to the PIPE Preferred Shares were $1,410 and deducted from Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares, and issuance costs that were allocated to the Private Placement Warrants were $1,907 and were expensed immediately.
At-the-Market Sales Agreement:
In December 2023, pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-3 declared effective by the SEC on January 2, 2024, the Company entered an At the Market Offering Agreement with H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC (“Wainwright”), pursuant to which the Company may issue and sell shares of Common Stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $7,500 from time to time through Wainwright. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company sold 7,518 shares of Common Stock under this agreement, at an average price of $2.71 per share, raising aggregate net proceeds of approximately $19, after deducting an aggregate commission of $1.
Warrants:
As of September 30, 2024, the Company had the following outstanding warrants to purchase Common Stock issued to stockholders:
On March 15, 2024, the Company issued Agents Warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 952,381 shares of the Company’s Common Stock to the Placement Agents in connection with the March 2024 PIPE. The exercise price of the Agents Warrants is $2.31 per share and they became exercisable at any time after the date of the receipt of BiomX stockholder approval, which was obtained on July 9, 2024, and will expire on July 9, 2026.
The Company accounted for the Agents Warrants under the scope of ASC 718-10 “Stock-Based Payment”, (“ASC 718-10”), and treated them as issuance costs of the March 2024 PIPE as the Company considers these Warrants as consideration for receipt of Private Placement Services.
The Company determined the fair value of the Agents Warrants using the Black-Scholes model as of March 5, 2024. The main assumptions used are as follows:
On July 9, 2024, the Company’s stockholders approved increasing the number of shares of Common Stock under the Company’s 2019 Omnibus Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2019 Plan”) to be equal to 15% of the total number of fully-diluted shares of Common Stock outstanding as of the approval date, or 7,800,000 shares.
On September 16, 2024, the Company granted 155,429 RSUs to four senior officers and one service provider. The RSUs were fully vested and issued on the grant date and are not subject to continued service to the Company. The RSUs’ fair value is the Company’s stock closing price as of the grant date, which was $0.99. As of September 30, 2024, the Company has no unvested RSUs.
On July 11, 2024, the Board of Directors approved the grant of 1,567,795 options to 51 employees, six senior officers and seven directors under the 2019 Plan, without consideration. Options were granted at an exercise price of $3.63 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.
Warrants:
As of September 30, 2024, the Company had the following outstanding compensation related warrants to purchase Common Stock:
