ENLIVEX THERAPEUTICS LTD.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS SEPTEMBER
30, 2024 (UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1 - GENERAL
INFORMATION
Enlivex Therapeutics Ltd. (including
its consolidated subsidiaries, “we”, “us”, “our” or the “Company”) was originally incorporated
on January 22, 2012 under the laws of the State of Israel.
The Company is a clinical stage macrophage
reprogramming immunotherapy company, developing AllocetraTM, a universal, off-the-shelf cell therapy designed to reprogram
macrophages into their homeostatic state. Resetting non-homeostatic macrophages into their homeostatic state is critical for immune system
rebalancing and resolution of debilitating and life-threatening conditions. Non-homeostatic macrophages contribute significantly to the
severity of certain diseases, which include sepsis, osteoarthritis and others.
AllocetraTM is based on
the discoveries of Professor Dror Mevorach, an expert on immune activity, macrophage activation and clearance of dying (apoptotic) cells,
in his laboratory in the Hadassah University Hospital located in the State of Israel.
The Company’s ordinary shares,
par value of NIS 0.40 per share (“Ordinary Shares”), are traded under the symbol “ENLV” on both the Nasdaq Capital
Market and on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange.
The Company devotes substantially all
of its efforts toward research and development activities and raising capital to support such activities. The Company’s activities
are subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including failing to secure additional funding before the Company achieves sustainable
revenues and profit from operations.
Research and development activities
have required significant capital investment since the Company’s inception. The Company expects that its operations will require
additional cash investment to pursue the Company’s research and development activities, including preclinical studies, formulation
development, clinical trials and related drug manufacturing. The Company has not generated any revenues or product sales and has not achieved
profitable operations or positive cash flow from operations. The Company has incurred net losses since its inception, and, as of September
30, 2024, had an accumulated deficit of $121,931 thousand.
The Company expects to continue to
incur losses for the foreseeable future, and the Company will need to raise additional debt or equity financing or enter into partnerships
to fund its development. If the Company is not able to achieve its funding requirements, it may be required to reduce discretionary spending,
may not be able to continue the development of its product candidates or may be required to delay its development programs, which could
have a material adverse effect on the Company’s ability to achieve its intended business objectives. There can be no assurances
that additional financing will be secured or, if secured, will be on favorable terms. The ability of the Company to transition to profitability
in the longer term is dependent on developing products and product revenues to support its expenses.
The Company’s management and
board of directors (the “Board”) are of the opinion that the Company’s current financial resources will be sufficient
to continue the development of the Company’s product candidates for at least twelve months following the filing of these financial
statements on Form 6-K. The Company may determine, however, to raise additional capital during such period as the Board deems prudent.
The Company’s management plans to finance its operations with issuances of the Company’s equity securities and, in the longer
term, revenues. There are no assurances, however, that the Company will be successful in obtaining the financing necessary for its long-term
development. The Company’s ability to continue to operate in the long term is dependent upon additional financial support.
NOTE
2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
These unaudited condensed consolidated
financial statements include the accounts of the Company and have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting
principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally
included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been made. The results of operations
for these interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for any future period. These unaudited condensed consolidated
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited annual financial statements and notes thereto included
in the Company’s 2023 Annual Report on Form 20-F, as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on April 30, 2024. The
December 31, 2023 financial information presented in these interim financial statements has been derived from the Company’s
audited financial statements.

Use of Estimates
The preparation of interim financial
statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires that management make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts in the consolidated balance sheets and statements of operations and also requires that management exercise its judgment in applying
the Company’s accounting policies. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates, including estimates related to its stock-based
compensation expense and implicit interest rates on new lease liabilities. Significant estimates in these interim financial statements
include estimates made for accrued research and development expenses and stock-based compensation expenses.
Functional Currency and Translation
to The Reporting Currency
The functional currency of the
Company is the U.S. dollar because the U.S. dollar is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Company operates
and expects to continue to operate in the foreseeable future. Balances related to non-monetary assets and liabilities are based on
translated amounts as of the date of the change, and non-monetary assets acquired and liabilities were translated at the approximate
exchange rate prevailing at the date of the transaction. Transactions included in the statement of income were translated at the
approximate exchange rate in effect at the time of the transaction.
1 U.S. dollar = 3.71 NIS and 3.627
NIS as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.
The U.S. dollar (decreased) increased
against the NIS (1.3)%, 2.28%, 3.35% and 8.66% in the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
During the nine months ended September
30, 2024, the Company was not required to adopt any recently issued accounting standards.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Not Yet Adopted
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU
2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures”, which is intended to provide enhanced
segment disclosures. The standard will require disclosures about significant segment expenses and other segment items and identifying
the Chief Operating Decision Maker and how they use the reported segment profitability measures to assess segment performance and allocate
resources. These enhanced disclosures are required for all entities on an interim and annual basis, even if they have only a single reportable
segment. The standard is effective for years beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods within annual periods beginning after
December 15, 2024, and early adoption is permitted. The Company does not believe that adoption of this ASU will have a material impact
on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU
2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures”, which is intended to provide enhancements to
annual income tax disclosures. The standard will require more detailed information in the rate reconciliation table and for income taxes
paid, among other enhancements. The standard is effective for years beginning after December 15, 2024, early adoption is permitted. The
Company does not believe that adoption of this ASU will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU
2024-03, “Income Statement (Topic 220): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses”, which requires additional disclosures
of certain amounts included in the expense captions presented on the Statement of Operations as well as disclosures about selling expenses.
This ASU is effective on a prospective basis, with the option for retrospective application, for annual periods beginning after December
15, 2026 and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating
the impacts of adopting this guidance on its financial statement disclosures.

NOTE 10 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
The Company is required to pay royalties
to the State of Israel (represented by the Israeli Innovation Authority (the “IIA”)), computed on the basis of proceeds from
the sale or license of products for which development was supported by IIA grants. These royalties are generally 3% - 5% of sales until
repayment of 100% of the grants (linked to the dollar) received by the Company plus annual interest at a SOFR-based rate.
The gross amount of grants received
by the Company from the IIA, including accrued interest as of September 30, 2024, was approximately $9.9 million. As of September 30,
2024, the Company had not paid any royalties to the IIA.
NOTE 11 – EQUITY
| a) | On May 27, 2024, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with a single institutional
investor in connection with the issuance and sale by the Company in a registered direct offering (the “Offering”) of (i) 2,060,000
Ordinary Shares, (ii) pre-funded warrants to purchase up to 1,511,429 Ordinary Shares (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”), (iii) Series
A warrants to purchase up to 3,571,429 Ordinary Shares (the “Series A Warrants”) and (iv) Series B warrants to purchase up
to 3,571,429 Ordinary Shares (the “Series B Warrants” and, together with the Series A Warrants, the “Investor Warrants”),
at a combined purchase price of (a) $1.40 per Ordinary Share and the associated Investor Warrants, each to purchase one Ordinary Share,
and (b) $1.399 per Pre-Funded Warrant and the associated Investor Warrants, each to purchase one Ordinary Share, pursuant to the Company’s
effective shelf registration statement on Form F-3 (File No. 333-364561) and related base prospectus and prospectus supplement. |
Each Investor Warrant has an exercise
price of $1.40 per Ordinary Share and is immediately exercisable. The Series A Warrants expire upon the earlier of 18 months following
the issuance date and 60 days following the Company’s public announcement of positive topline trial results of AllocetraTM
for the treatment of moderate-to-severe knee osteoarthritis (the “Series A Milestone Event”). The Series B warrants expire
upon the earlier of five and one-half years following the issuance date and 60 days following the Company’s public announcement
of its filing with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) for approval for AllocetraTM’s osteoarthritis
related indication (the “Series B Milestone Event”). Each Pre-Funded Warrant has an exercise price of $0.001 per Ordinary
Share, is immediately exercisable, may be exercised at any time and has no expiration date.
H.C. Wainwright & Co. (“Wainwright”)
acted as placement agent in connection with the Offering, and in consideration therefor the Company agreed to register and issue to Wainwright
warrants (the “Placement Agent Warrants”) to purchase up to 250,000 Ordinary Shares. The Placement Agent Warrants comprise
Series A Warrants to purchase 125,000 Ordinary Shares and Series B Warrants to purchase 125,000 Ordinary Shares, containing the same terms
as the Investor Warrants, except that they are exercisable at a price of $1.75 per Ordinary Share, and the Series B Warrants will expire
upon the earlier of five years following the commencement of the sale of the securities offered in the Offering and 60 days following
the Series B Milestone Event.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS SEPTEMBER

In addition, the Company agreed to
pay Wainwright an aggregate cash fee equal to 7% of the gross proceeds raised in the Offering, a management fee equal to 1% of the gross
proceeds raised in the Offering and $90,950 for various fees and expenses.
The Offering closed on May 29, 2024.
The net proceeds from the Offering were approximately $4.5 million after deducting Wainwright’s fees and other expenses relating
to the Offering. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering for working capital and other general corporate purposes.
During
the third quarter of 2024, 860,429 Pre-Funded Warrants were exercised for an aggregate of
860,429 Ordinary Shares, which provided the Company with aggregate gross proceeds of approximately
$1.0 thousand.
| b) | All Company warrants are classified as components of shareholders’ equity because the warrants are
free standing financial instruments that are legally detachable, separately exercisable, do not embody an obligation for the Company to
repurchase its own shares, permit the holders to receive a fixed number of Ordinary Shares upon exercise, require physical settlement
and do not provide any guarantee of value or return (unless, in accordance with ASC 815-40-55-3, there is a fundamental transaction, as
defined in the warrant agreements, which allows the holders of the warrants to receive the same form of consideration payable to the holders
of Ordinary Shares, in which case equity treatment is not precluded). |

Overview
Enlivex Therapeutics, Ltd.,
a company organized under the laws of the State of Israel (including its consolidated subsidiaries, “we”, “us”,
“our” or the “Company”), is a clinical-stage macrophage reprogramming immunotherapy company, developing
AllocetraTM, a universal, off-the-shelf cell therapy designed to reprogram macrophages into their homeostatic state. Resetting
non-homeostatic macrophages into their homeostatic state is critical for immune system rebalancing and resolution of life-threatening
conditions. Non-homeostatic macrophages contribute significantly to the severity of the respective diseases. By restoring macrophage
homeostasis, Allocetra™ has the potential to provide a novel immunotherapeutic mechanism of action for debilitating and life-threatening
clinical indications that are defined as “unmet medical needs,” as a stand-alone therapy or in combination with leading therapeutic
agents.
We believe the Company’s
primary innovative immunotherapy, AllocetraTM, represents a paradigm shift in macrophage
reprogramming, moving from targeting a specific subset of macrophages or a specific pathway affecting macrophages activity, to a fundamental
view of macrophage homeostasis. Restoring macrophage homeostasis may induce the immune system to rebalance itself to normal levels of
operation, thereby promoting disease resolution.
The
Company is focused on three clinical program verticals as its main inflammatory and autoimmune indications: sepsis, osteoarthritis and
psoriatic arthritis (the “Indications”). Additionally, the Company is seeking external collaborations or out-licensing
opportunities for the development of Allocetra™ as a next-generation solid cancer immunotherapy. The Company believes that negatively-reprogrammed
macrophages may be key contributors to disease severity across the Indications, and thus effective reprogramming of these previously
negative-reprogrammed macrophages into their respective homeostatic states may provide diseases resolution for these Indications, some
of which are considered “unmet medical needs”.
Financial and Operational Overview
Since inception, we have incurred
significant losses in connection with our research and development and have not generated any revenue. We have funded our operations primarily
through grants from the Israeli Innovation Authority (“IIA”) and the sale of equity and equity linked securities in
public and private offerings. As of September 30, 2024, we had approximately $25 million in cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash
and short-term bank deposits and had an accumulated deficit of approximately $122 million, see “—Liquidity and Capital Resources”
below.
In
September 2023, we announced a strategic reprioritization plan, pursuant to which we determined to increase our existing focus on inflammatory
and autoimmune indications. As part of the strategic reprioritization plan, in addition to the ongoing Phase II trial of AllocetraTM
in patients with sepsis, the Company initiated a clinical program in osteoarthritis, which is a degenerative disease with low grade
inflammation and an indication with a substantial unmet medical need that potentially represents a multibillion dollar commercial market.
Within the osteoarthritis program, the Company announced in June 2024 a positive interim data readout
from a Phase I/II investigator-initiated clinical trial of AllocetraTM in patients with
end-stage knee osteoarthritis who had been indicated for knee replacement surgery. Additionally, in November 2024, we announced the enrollment
and dosing of the first 10 patients in the randomized Phase II stage of the Company’s multi-country Phase I/II trial of Allocetra™
in patients with moderate to severe knee osteoarthritis. The Company currently expects a topline
data readout from the randomized, controlled Phase I/II trial in up to 160 patients with moderate to severe knee osteoarthritis by the
third quarter of 2025. In addition, in November 2024, we announced the completion of the dosing and initial follow-up period for
the first patient in the company’s Phase I clinical trial evaluating the safety, tolerability and potential therapeutic effect of
Allocetra™ in patients with psoriatic arthritis.
Pursuant
to the strategic reprioritization plan, and in light of the new guidelines and regulatory initiatives set by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration
(“FDA”) for drug development in oncology, which may result in longer clinical development cycles as foundations for
regulatory approvals, the Company ceased the internal clinical development of its various oncology indications and plans to seek external
collaborations or out-licensing opportunities for the development of Allocetra™ as a next-generation solid cancer immunotherapy.
As
a result of the Company’s reprioritization of its clinical indications and focus on the inflammatory and auto-immune verticals,
the Company reduced its workforce by approximately 50%. The workforce reductions and the savings associated with the reclassification
of the oncology indications as candidates for external collaborations or out-licensing opportunities in lieu of internal development has
resulted in a substantial extension of the Company’s cash runway. Given the implementation of our reprioritization plan, the sale
of our manufacturing facility in Yavne, Israel in April 2024 and the receipt of approximately $4,416 thousand of net proceeds from
the May 2024 Offering (as defined below), management currently believes that our existing cash resources will be sufficient to fund our
projected cash requirements through the end of 2026. Management currently expects that the Company’s
existing cash and cash equivalents support the timeline for the topline data readouts from the end-stage knee osteoarthritis Phase I/II
trial, the randomized, controlled Phase I/II clinical trial in moderate to severe knee osteoarthritis, and the randomized, controlled
Phase II clinical trial in basal thumb osteoarthritis, as well as the one-year follow up for each of the foregoing trials. Additionally,
management expects that our current cash and cash equivalents will continue to support additional research and development activities
related to our Allocetra™ platform.
We expect that we will continue
to incur operating losses, which may be substantial over the next several years, and we may need to obtain additional funds to further
develop our research and development programs.
Recent Developments
Initiation of Phase II Stage of Phase I/II Moderate to Severe Knee
Osteoarthritis Clinical Trial
Following
receipt of the approval of the Israeli Ministry of Health (the “IMOH”) in January 2024, we initiated a
multi-country randomized, controlled Phase I/II clinical trial evaluating AllocetraTM in patients with moderate knee osteoarthritis.
This trial is expected to enroll up to 160 patients and is designed to be a multi-center, multi-country, double-blinded, placebo-controlled
and statistically-powered study to evaluate efficacy as well as safety of AllocetraTM, and potentially allow the Company to
design and initiate a clinical registrational trial upon its completion. The multi-center Phase I/II clinical trial consists of two stages.
The first stage, which we successfully completed, was a Phase I safety run-in, open-label dose escalation phase to characterize the safety
and tolerability of Allocetra™ injections to the target knee in order to identify the dose and injection regimen for the subsequent
Phase II stage. In September 2024, we announced the recommendation by the independent Data and Safety Monitoring Board to proceed
with the randomized Phase II stage at the highest tested dose, as well as the Danish Medicines Agency’s authorization to initiate
this next trial stage. In November 2024, we announced the enrollment and dosing of the first 10 patients in the randomized Phase II stage
of this trial. The ongoing Phase II stage evaluating the highest dose of Allocetra™ used in
the Phase I stage, is a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled stage. In addition to evaluating safety, the blinded randomized stage
is statistically powered to assess the efficacy of Allocetra™ injections into the knee. The trial’s key efficacy end points
will evaluate joint-pain and joint-function in comparison to placebo at three months, six months and 12 months after treatment.
Initiation of Phase I Psoriatic Arthritis Clinical
Trial
In November 2024, the Company
announced the completion of the dosing and initial follow-up period for the first patient in the Company’s Phase I clinical trial
to evaluate the safety, tolerability and potential therapeutic effect of Allocetra™ following injection into an affected joint in
patients with psoriatic arthritis, with no safety concerns recorded following such dosing. In July 2024, the Company announced that the
IMOH had authorized the initiation of this Phase I clinical trial, which currently plans recruit six patients who have insufficiently
responded to conventional therapies for psoriatic arthritis. The primary safety endpoint will measure the frequency and severity of adverse
events and serious adverse events, and secondary endpoints will include assessments of change from baseline in pain and other parameters
of disease activity for up to 12 months following administration of Allocetra™.
Topline Interim Data Readout for Phase I/II End-stage Knee Osteoarthritis
Clinical Trial
In June 2024, the Company
released a positive interim data readout from a Phase I/II investigator-initiated clinical trial of Allocetra™ in patients with
end-stage knee osteoarthritis who had been indicated for knee replacement surgery. In this study, patients with end-stage knee osteoarthritis
are offered a single Allocetra™ injection to the knee as a potential “last resort” alternative for pain resolution and
knee functionality in lieu of knee-replacement surgery. A total of nine patients have been enrolled and treated with a single Allocetra™
injection to the knee and evaluated for at least three months following treatment. Patients reported pain using a scale of zero (0, representing
no pain) to ten (10, representing maximum pain).
At the three-month follow
up, a substantial reduction (51%) in average reported pain was observed compared to baseline, with 89% (8/9) of treated patients reporting
an improvement in their knee pain compared to their baseline pain prior to treatment, and 22% (2/9) of the patients reporting complete
pain relief from an average pain level of 9 to a pain level of 0.
During the three-month period
post injection of Allocetra™, only a single patient (1/9, 11%) decided to move forward with knee-replacement surgery, while 89%
(8/9) of the patients decided not to proceed with such surgery. In all cases, dosing was successfully completed, and no severe related
adverse events were reported following treatment.
Recruitment to the study and
long-term follow up are ongoing. The study aims to enroll a total of 18 patients to be treated with a single injection of Allocetra™
to the afflicted knee. Patients are assessed for safety following dosing, and pain and function responses to treatment up to 12 months
following injection.
Initiation of Phase I/II Basal Thumb Joint
Osteoarthritis Clinical Trial
In June 2024, the IMOH authorized
the initiation of an investigator-initiated, randomized, placebo-controlled Phase I/II trial to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability
of Allocetra™ following injection into patients with basal thumb joint (first carpometacarpal (CMC) joint) osteoarthritis. The investigator-initiated
Phase I/II trial plans to recruit up to 46 patients and is composed of two stages. The first stage is a safety run-in, open-label dose
escalation phase to characterize the safety and tolerability of Allocetra™ injection to patients with osteoarthritis of the first
basal thumb joint (first CMC joint) of the target thumb who have failed conventional therapies, to identify the dose for the randomized
stage. The second stage is a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled stage, which is expected to be initiated following the completion
of the safety run-in stage and selection of the safe and tolerable dose. Up to 40 patients will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio for treatment
with Allocetra™ at the selected dose or placebo. The primary safety endpoint will measure the frequency and severity of adverse
events and serious adverse events, and the efficacy endpoints will include assessments of change from baseline in pain and function for
up to 12 months.
Recent Developments In Israel
In
October 2023, Hamas terrorists infiltrated Israel’s southern border from the Gaza Strip and conducted a series of attacks on civilian
and military targets. Hamas also launched extensive rocket attacks on the Israeli population and industrial centers located along Israel’s
border with the Gaza Strip and in other areas within the State of Israel. These attacks resulted in thousands of deaths and injuries,
and Hamas additionally kidnapped many Israeli civilians and soldiers. Following the attack, Israel’s security cabinet declared war
against Hamas and commenced a military campaign against Hamas. The intensity and duration of Israel’s
current war against Hamas is difficult to predict, as are such war’s economic implications for Israel’s economy in general.
In
addition, since April 2024, Israel has experienced direct attacks from Iran, involving hundreds of drones and ballistic missiles launched
directly towards highly populated civilian areas across the North, South and Center of Israel, including military bases. The Israeli defense
systems, aided by international allies, successfully intercepted the majority of these attacks, minimizing physical damage and casualties.
Additionally, since October 8, 2023, Hezbollah has launched thousands of guided missiles to the North of Israel causing the displacement
of over 95,000 Israelis from their homes; and the Houthis, a military organization based in Yemen, have launched a series of attacks on
global shipping routes in the Red Sea, as well as direct attacks on various parts of Israel. Such incidents contribute to regional instability
and could potentially escalate into broader conflicts with Iran and its proxies in the Middle East, affecting Israel's political and trade
relations, especially with neighboring countries and global allies. The situation remains fluid, and the potential for further escalation
exists.
The ongoing war with Hamas
and Hezbollah, and the conflict with Iran and its proxies have not, to date, materially impacted our business or operations. Furthermore,
we do not expect any delays to any of our clinical trials or programs as a result of such conflicts. However, we cannot currently predict
the intensity or duration of Israel’s war against Hamas or the conflict with Iran and its proxies, nor can we predict how such conflicts
will ultimately affect our business and operations or Israel’s economy in general.
Costs and Operating Expenses
Our current costs and operating
expenses consist of two components: (i) research and development expenses; and (ii) general and administrative expenses.
Research and Development
Expenses
Our research and development
expenses consist primarily of research and development activities at our laboratory in Israel, including drug and laboratory supplies
and costs for facilities and equipment, outsourced development expenses, including the costs of regulatory consultants and certain other
service providers, salaries and related personnel expenses (including share based compensation) and fees paid to external service providers
and the costs of preclinical studies and clinical trials. We charge all research and development expenses to operations as they are incurred.
We expect our research and development expenses to remain our primary expenses for the foreseeable future as we continue to develop our
product candidates. Increases or decreases in research and development expenditures are primarily attributable to the number and duration
of our preclinical and clinical studies.
We expect that a large percentage
of our research and development expenses in the future will be incurred in support of our current and future preclinical and clinical
development projects. Due to the inherently unpredictable nature of preclinical and clinical development processes, we are unable to estimate
with any certainty the costs we will incur in the continued development of our product candidates in our pipeline for potential commercialization.
Furthermore, although we expect to apply for additional grants from the IIA, we cannot be certain that we will obtain such grants. Clinical
development timelines, the probability of success and development costs can differ materially from expectations. We expect to continue
to test our product candidates in preclinical and clinical studies for, among other things, toxicology, safety and efficacy.
While we are currently focused
on advancing our product development, our future research and development expenses will depend on the clinical success of our product
candidates, as well as ongoing assessments of each candidate’s commercial potential. As we obtain results from clinical trials,
we may elect to discontinue or delay clinical trials for our product candidates in certain of the Indications in order to focus our resources
on more promising indications for any such product candidate. Completion of clinical trials may take several years or more, but the length
of time generally varies according to the type, complexity, novelty and intended use of a product candidate.
We expect our research and
development expenses to increase in the future as we continue the development of our product candidates for the Indications and as we
potentially pursue additional indications. The lengthy process of completing clinical trials and seeking regulatory approval for our product
candidates requires the expenditure of substantial resources. Any failure or delay in completing clinical trials, or in obtaining regulatory
approvals, could cause a delay in generating product revenue and cause our research and development expenses to increase and, in turn,
have a material adverse effect on our financial position and operations.
General and Administrative
Expenses
General and administrative
expenses consist primarily of compensation (including share-based compensation) for employees in executive and operational roles, including
accounting, finance, investor relations, information technology and human resources. Our other significant general and administrative
expenses include facilities costs, professional fees for outside accounting and legal services, including legal work in connection with
patent applications, travel costs and insurance premiums. We expect that our general and administrative expenses will increase over time,
as we currently expect increases in the number of our executive, accounting and administrative personnel due to our anticipated growth.
Finance income (expenses), net
Finance income (expenses),
net consists of bank fees, exchange rate differences and gains and losses resulting from our investments in bank deposits and marketable
securities.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of financial
statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in our financial statements and accompanying notes. Management bases its estimates on
historical experience, market and other conditions, and other assumptions it believes to be reasonable. Although these estimates are
based on management’s best knowledge of current events and actions that may impact us in the future, the estimation process is,
by its nature, uncertain given that estimates depend on events over which we may not have control. If market and other conditions change
from those that we anticipate, our financial statements may be materially affected. In addition, if our assumptions change, we may need
to revise our estimates, or take other corrective actions, either of which may also have a material effect in our financial statements.
We review our estimates, judgments, and assumptions used in our accounting practices periodically and reflect the effects of revisions
in the period in which they are deemed to be necessary. We believe that these estimates are reasonable; however, our actual results may
differ from these estimates.
We believe the following accounting
policies to be the most critical to the judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements. For additional detail
regarding our significant accounting policies, please see the notes to our audited consolidated financial statements contained in our
Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2023 as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”)
on April 30, 2024.
Share-Based Compensation
We have issued restricted
stock units and options to purchase our ordinary shares. Share-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair
value of the award and is recognized as an expense over the requisite service/vesting period. Determining the appropriate fair value model
and calculating the fair value of share-based payment awards require the use of highly subjective assumptions, including the expected
life of the share-based payment awards and share price volatility.
We estimate the grant date
fair value of share options and the related compensation expense, using the Black-Scholes option valuation model. This option valuation
model requires the input of subjective assumptions including: (1) expected life (estimated period of time outstanding) of the options
granted, (2) volatility, (3) risk-free rate and (4) dividends. In general, the assumptions used in calculating the fair value of share-based
payment awards represent management’s best estimates, but the estimates involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management
judgment.
Preclinical and clinical
trial accruals
The Company makes estimates
of its accrued expenses as of each balance sheet date in the financial statements based on the facts and circumstances known at that time.
Accrued expenses for preclinical studies and clinical trials are based on estimates of costs incurred and fees that may be associated
with services provided by contract research organizations, clinical trial sites and other clinical trial-related activities. Payments
under certain contracts with such parties depend on factors such as successful enrollment of patients, site initiation and the completion
of clinical trial milestones. If possible, the Company obtains information regarding unbilled services directly from these service providers.
However, the Company may be required to estimate these services based on other available information. If the Company underestimates or
overestimates the activities or fees associated with a study or service at a given point in time, adjustments to research and development
expenses may be necessary in future periods. Historically, estimated accrued liabilities have approximated actual expense incurred.

Research and Development
Expenses
For the nine months ended
September 30, 2024 and 2023, we incurred research and development expenses in the aggregate of $7,204,000 and $14,560,000, respectively.
The decrease of $7,356,000, or 51%, in research and development expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the
comparable nine month period in 2023 was primarily due to a $1,966,000 decrease in salaries as a result of the reduction
in workforce, as part of the strategic reprioritization plan, and a $5,125,000 decrease
in expenses for clinical studies and pre-clinical studies and purchase of materials due to a decrease in the number of AllocetraTM
doses that were manufactured.
For the three months ended
September 30, 2024 and 2023, we incurred research and development expenses in the aggregate of $2,348,000 and $4,349,000, respectively.
The decrease of $2,001,000, or 46%, in research and development expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to
the third quarter of 2023 was primarily due to a $494,000 decrease in salaries, as a result of the reduction
in workforce as part of the strategic reprioritization plan, and a $1,423,000 decrease
in expenses for clinical studies and pre-clinical studies and purchase of materials due to a decrease in the number of AllocetraTM
doses that were manufactured.
General and Administrative
Expenses
For the nine months ended
September 30, 2024 and 2023, we incurred general and administrative expenses in the aggregate of $2,851,000 and $4,500,000, respectively.
The decrease of $1,649,000 or 37%, in general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to
the comparable nine month period in 2023 was primarily due to a $419,000 decrease in expense with respect to equity awards granted to
directors, officers and employees, a $165,000 decrease in insurance expenses (due to a decrease in our directors’ and officer’s
liability insurance premium), a $486,000 decrease in lease and overhead expense, a $150,000 decrease in professional fees related to intellectual
property regulatory expenses, and a $122,000 decrease in salaries.
For the three months ended
September 30, 2024 and 2023, we incurred general and administrative expenses in the aggregate of $771,000 and $1,279,000, respectively.
The decrease of $508,000, or 40%, in general and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to
the third quarter of 2023 was primarily due to a $95,000 decrease in expense with respect to equity awards granted to directors, officers
and employees, a $200,000 decrease in lease and overhead expense, a $34,000 decrease in professional fees related to intellectual property
regulatory expenses.
Loss on Disposal Group of Assets
Held for Sale
During 2023, the Company adopted
its strategic reprioritization plan, as described above, as part of which the Company determined to sell its manufacturing plant facility
in Yavne, Israel. Therefore, the right of use of the manufacturing plant, the lease liability relating to the manufacturing plant and
the leasehold improvements installed in the leased plant were classified as assets held for sale and liability held for sale (as applicable).
As a result, for the year ended December 31, 2023, we recognized a loss of $4,244,000 on the group of assets held for sale. For the nine
months ended September 30, 2024, we recorded an additional $201,000 loss on the group of assets held for sale.
In September 2021, we entered
into a lease agreement for a 2,500 square meter property in Yavne, Israel to construct a new 1,600 square meter facility for the manufacture
of Allocetra™, which was completed in the fourth quarter of 2022. As part of our strategic
reprioritization plan, we determined to sell such leased manufacturing facility, together with related equipment, and assign the lease
agreement. On March 31, 2024, we entered into a sale agreement with a purchaser, pursuant to which the purchaser agreed to acquire such
equipment and assume all of our obligations under the lease agreement, effective as of April 1, 2024. The 13.0 million NIS (approximately
$3.5 million) aggregate purchase price payable to the Company, which is payable in installments, consists of an initial payment of NIS
4.0 million (approximately $1.08 million), which was paid on April 2, 2024, and 24 equal monthly installment payments of NIS 375,000 (approximately
$102,000), commencing on April 1, 2024. Under the sale agreement, title to the equipment will transfer to the purchaser only upon full
payment of the total purchase price, but risk of loss to the equipment passed to the purchaser on April 1, 2024. Subject to certain conditions,
the purchaser may, in its sole discretion, prior to October 1, 2025, prepay (i) all of the remaining outstanding purchase price at a 4%
discount, or (ii) a portion of the remaining outstanding purchase price, in an amount of not less than NIS 4.0 million (approximately
$1.08 million), at a 2% discount, in which case, the purchase price remaining outstanding thereafter shall continue to be paid in monthly
instalments of NIS 375,000 each (approximately $102,000).
Operating Loss
Due to a decrease in research
and development expenses and a decrease in general and administrative expenses for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2024,
our operating loss was $10,256,000 and $3,119,000, respectively, representing a decrease of $8,804,000 and $2,509,000, or 46% and 45%,
respectively, as compared to our operating loss of $19,060,000 and $5,628,000 for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2023,
respectively. This decrease resulted primarily from a decrease in research and development expenses, including expenses relating to conducting
studies and trials, and a decrease in salaries as a result of the reduction in workforce as part of the strategic reprioritization plan,
in each case as described above.
Finance income (expenses),
net
Finance income (expenses),
net consists of the following:
|
● |
Interest earned on our cash and cash equivalents and bank deposits; and |
|
● |
Expenses or income resulting from fluctuations of the NIS and Euro, in which a portion of our assets and liabilities are denominated, against the U.S. dollar. |
For the nine and three months
ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, we recorded finance income (expenses), net of $418,000, $517,000, $(913,000) and $(335,000) respectively.
The increase of $1,331,000 or 146%, in finance income, net for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the nine months
ended September 30, 2023 was primarily due to $826,000 of interest income earned on cash equivalents and bank deposits in 2024, offset
by a loss of $408,000 resulting from foreign exchange currency fluctuations, as compared to interest income of $1,246,000 in 2023, offset
by a loss of $2,159,000 resulting from foreign exchange currency fluctuations.
The increase of $852,000,
or 254%, in finance income, net for the three months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023
was primarily due to $286,000 of interest income on bank deposits in 2024 and a gain of $231,000 resulting from foreign exchange currency
fluctuations on cash and cash equivalents, as compared to as compared to $362,000 of interest income in 2023, offset by a loss of $697,000
resulting from foreign exchange currency fluctuations.
Net Loss
For
the nine and three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, our net loss was $9,838,000, $2,602,000, $19,973,000 and $5,963,000, respectively,
representing a decrease of $10,135,000 and $3,361,000, or 51% and 56%, respectively, as compared to our net loss for the comparable prior
year periods.
This decrease resulted primarily
from a decrease in clinical and pre-clinical studies, material consumption and salaries, and from an increase in finance income, net.
Cash Flows
Nine Months Ended September
30, 2024 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023
For the nine months ended
September 30, 2024 and 2023, net cash used in operations was $8,924,000 and $18,246,000, respectively. The decrease in net cash used in
operations for 2024 was primarily due to a decrease in payments to suppliers, service providers and employees as result of a decrease
in payroll and insurance expenses, as well as a decrease in research and development expenses, mainly from decreased clinical and pre-clinical
study expenses.
For the nine months ended
September 30, 2024 and 2023, net cash provided by (used in) investing activities was $5,701,000 and $(30,103,000) respectively. The increase
in net cash provided by investing activities for 2024 as compared to 2023 resulted primarily from a net release of investments in bank
deposits of $3,772,000 in 2024 as compared to a net investment in bank deposits of $29,956,000 in the comparable prior year period.
For the nine months ended
September 30, 2024 and 2023, net cash provided by financing activities was $5,193,000 and $360,000, respectively. This increase in cash
provided by financing activities for 2024 as compared to 2023 resulted primarily from net proceeds of $4,416,000 from our issuance of
ordinary shares and warrants in the May 2024 Offering (as defined below) and from net proceeds of $777,000 from our issuance of ordinary
shares under the ATM Agreement (as defined below), as compared to net proceeds of $360,000 from our issuance of ordinary shares under
the ATM Agreement in the comparable prior year period.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We have incurred substantial
losses since our inception. As of September 30, 2024, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $121.9 million and working capital
(current assets less current liabilities) of approximately $24.3 million. We expect to incur losses from operations for the foreseeable
future.
Developing product candidates,
conducting clinical trials and commercializing products are expensive, and we will need to raise substantial additional funds to achieve
our strategic objectives. We believe that our existing cash resources will be sufficient to fund our projected cash requirements approximately
through the end of 2026. Nevertheless, we will require significant additional financing in the future to fund our operations, including
if and when we progress into additional clinical trials, obtain regulatory approval for any of our product candidates and commercialize
the same. We believe that we will need to raise significant additional funds before we have any cash flow from operations, if at all.
Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including:
|
● |
the progress and costs of our preclinical studies, clinical trials and other research and development activities; |
|
● |
the scope, prioritization and number of our clinical trials and other research and development programs; |
|
● |
the amount of revenues and contributions we receive under future licensing, development and commercialization arrangements with respect to our product candidates; |
|
● |
the costs of the development and expansion of our operational infrastructure; |
|
● |
the costs and timing of obtaining regulatory approval for our product candidates; |
|
● |
the costs of filing, prosecuting, enforcing and defending patent claims and other intellectual property rights; |
|
● |
the costs and timing of securing manufacturing arrangements for clinical or commercial production; |
|
● |
the costs of contracting with third parties to provide sales and marketing capabilities for us; |
|
● |
the costs of acquiring or undertaking development and commercialization efforts for any future products, product candidates or platforms; |
|
|
|
|
● |
the receipt of additional government grants; |
|
|
|
|
● |
the magnitude of our general and administrative expenses; and |
|
● |
any cost that we may incur under future in- and out-licensing arrangements relating to our product candidates. |
Other than under our ATM Agreement,
we currently do not have any agreements for future external funding. In the future, we will need to raise additional funds, and we may
decide to raise additional funds even before we need such funds if the conditions for raising capital are favorable. Until we can generate
significant recurring revenues, we expect to satisfy our future cash needs through debt or equity financings, credit facilities or by
out-licensing applications of our product candidates. The sale of equity, including under our ATM Agreement, or convertible debt securities
may result in dilution to our existing shareholders. The incurrence of indebtedness would result in increased fixed obligations and could
also subject us to covenants that restrict our operations. We cannot be certain that additional funding, whether through grants from the
IIA, financings, credit facilities or out-licensing arrangements, will be available to us on acceptable terms, if at all. If sufficient
funds are not available, we may be required to delay, reduce the scope of or eliminate research or development plans for, or commercialization
efforts with respect to, one or more applications of our product candidates, or obtain funds through arrangements with collaborators or
others that may require us to relinquish rights to certain potential products that we might otherwise seek to develop or commercialize
independently.
ATM Agreement
On December 30, 2022, we entered
into an agreement (the “ATM Agreement”) with Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. and JMP Securities LLC (each referred to as
an “Agent”, and together, the “Agents”), as sales agents, pursuant to which we may elect to sell,
but are not obligated to sell, ordinary shares having an aggregate offering price of up to $100,000,000 from time to time through the
Agents. Our offer and sale of ordinary shares under the ATM Agreement may be made in transactions deemed to be “at-the-market”
offerings as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act, including sales made directly on or through the Nasdaq Capital Market, or any
other existing trading market in the United States for the ordinary shares, sales made to or through a market maker other than on an exchange
or otherwise, directly to an Agent as principal, in negotiated transactions, or in any other method permitted by law, which may include
block trades. We have agreed to pay the Agents an aggregate commission of 3.0% of the gross sales price from each sale of ordinary shares
under the ATM Agreement. Any sale of ordinary shares under the ATM Agreement will be made pursuant to our effective shelf registration
statement on Form F-3, including the prospectus contained therein (File No. 333-264561). During the nine months ended September 30 2024,
we received aggregate net proceeds of approximately $777,000 from the sale of 340,108 ordinary shares under the ATM Agreement.
May 2024 Financing
On May 27, 2024, we entered
into a securities purchase agreement with a single institutional investor in connection with the issuance and sale by the Company in a
registered direct offering (the “May 2024 Offering”) of (i) 2,060,000 of our ordinary shares, (ii) pre-funded
warrants to purchase up to 1,511,429 ordinary shares (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”), (iii) Series A warrants to purchase
up to 3,571,429 ordinary shares (the “Series A Warrants”) and (iv) Series B warrants to purchase up to 3,571,429 ordinary
shares (the “Series B Warrants” and, together with the Series A Warrants, the “Investor Warrants”),
at a combined purchase price of (a) $1.40 per ordinary share and the associated Investor Warrants, each to purchase one ordinary share,
and (b) $1.399 per Pre-Funded Warrant and the associated Investor Warrants, each to purchase one ordinary share, pursuant to the Company’s
effective shelf registration statement on Form F-3 (File No. 333-264561) and a related base prospectus, together with the related prospectus
supplement, dated as of May 27, 2024, filed with the SEC.
Each Investor Warrant has
an exercise price of $1.40 per ordinary share and is immediately exercisable. The Series A Warrants expire upon the earlier of 18 months
following the issuance date and 60 days following our public announcement of positive topline results from the ENX-CL-05-001 trial of
AllocetraTM for the treatment of moderate-to-severe knee osteoarthritis. The Series B warrants expire upon the earlier of five
and one-half years following the issuance date and 60 days following our public announcement of our filing with the FDA for approval for
AllocetraTM’s osteoarthritis related indication. Each Pre-Funded Warrant has an exercise price of $0.001 per ordinary
share, is immediately exercisable, may be exercised at any time and has no expiration date. The Investor Warrants and the Pre-Funded Warrants
are subject to customary adjustments; however, no such warrants contain any “ratchet” or other financial antidilution provisions.
None of the Investor Warrants may be exercised if the aggregate number of ordinary shares beneficially owned by the holder thereof would
exceed 4.99% immediately after exercise thereof, subject to increase to 9.99% at the option of the holder. None of the Pre-Funded Warrants
may be exercised if the aggregate number of ordinary shares beneficially owned by the holder thereof would exceed 9.99% immediately after
exercise thereof.
H.C. Wainwright & Co.
(“Wainwright”) acted as placement agent in connection with the May 2024 Offering, and in consideration therefor we
agreed to register and issue to Wainwright warrants (the “Placement Agent Warrants”) to purchase up to 250,000 of our
ordinary shares pursuant to the above noted registration statement. The Placement Agent Warrants comprise Series A Warrants to purchase
125,000 of our ordinary shares and Series B Warrants to purchase 125,000 of our ordinary shares, containing the same terms as the Investor
Warrants, except that they are exercisable at a price of $1.75 per ordinary share, and the Series B Warrants will expire upon the earlier
of five years following the commencement of the sale of the securities offered in the May 2024 Offering and 60 days following the public
announcement of our filing with the FDA for approval for AllocetraTM’s osteoarthritis related indication. The net proceeds
from the May 2024 Offering were approximately $4,416 thousand after deducting Wainwright’s fees and other offering expenses. We
intend to use the net proceeds from the May 2024 Offering for working capital and other general corporate purposes.
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk
Our foreign currency exposures
give rise to market risk associated with exchange rate movements of the NIS mainly against the U.S. dollar, and vice versa, because a
considerable portion of our expenses are denominated in the NIS. Our NIS expenses consist principally of payments made to employees, sub-contractors
and consultants for preclinical studies, clinical trials and other research and development activities. We anticipate that a sizable portion
of our expenses will continue to be denominated in the NIS. Our financial position, results of operations and cash flow are subject to
fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Our results of operations and cash flow are, therefore, subject to fluctuations
due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and may be adversely affected in the future due to changes in foreign exchange rates.
