NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1 ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS

Beyond Air, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, “Beyond Air” or the “Company”) was incorporated on April 28, 2015 under Delaware law. On June 25, 2019, the Company’s name was changed to Beyond Air, Inc. from AIT Therapeutics, Inc. The Company has the following wholly-owned subsidiaries:

Beyond Air Ltd. (“BA Ltd.”) incorporated on May 1, 2011 in Israel.

Beyond Air Australia Pty Ltd., incorporated on December 17, 2019 in Australia.

Beyond Air Ireland Limited, incorporated on March 5, 2020 in Ireland.

Beyond Cancer Ltd, incorporated on August 13, 2021 in Bermuda.

Beyond Air is a clinical-stage medical device and biopharmaceutical company developing a nitric oxide (“NO”) generator and delivery system (the “LungFit^® system”) that is capable of generating NO from ambient air. The LungFit^® platform can generate NO up to 400 parts per million (“ppm”) for delivery to a patient’s lungs directly or via a ventilator. LungFit^® can deliver NO either continuously or for a fixed amount of time at various flow rates and has the ability to either titrate dose on demand or maintain a constant dose. Beyond Air believes that LungFit^® can be used to treat patients on ventilators that require NO, as well as patients with chronic or acute severe lung infections via delivery through a breathing mask or similar apparatus. Furthermore, the Company believes that there is a high unmet medical need for patients suffering from certain severe lung infections that the LungFit^® platform can potentially address. The Company’s current areas of focus with LungFit^®are persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn (PPHN), acute viral pneumonia (AVP) including COVID-19, bronchiolitis (BRO) and nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) lung infection. The current product candidates will be subject to premarket reviews and approvals by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”), CE marking conformity assessment by a notified body in the European Union, as well as similar regulatory agency reviews or approvals in other countries or regions. If approved, the Company’s system will be marketed as a medical device in the United States.

Liquidity Risks and Uncertainties

The Company used cash in operating activities of $5.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021, and has accumulated losses of $95.9 million. The Company had cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of $48.7 million as of September 30, 2021. Based on management’s current business plan, the Company estimates that it will have enough cash and liquidity sufficient to finance its operating requirements for at least one year from the date of filing these financial statements.

The Company’s future capital needs and the adequacy of its available funds will depend on many factors, including, but not necessarily limited to, the actual cost and time necessary for current and anticipated preclinical studies, clinical trials and other actions needed to obtain regulatory approval of the Company’s medical devices in development as well as the cost to launch the Company’s first product for PPHN, assuming approval of Beyond Air’s Pre-Market Approval Process (PMA).

The Company may be required to raise additional funds through equity or debt securities offerings or strategic collaboration and/or licensing agreements in order to fund operations until it is able to generate enough product or royalty revenues, if any. Such financing may not be available on acceptable terms, or at all, and the Company’s failure to raise capital when needed could have a material adverse effect on its strategic objectives, results of operations and financial condition.

BEYOND AIR, INC. AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1 ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS (continued)

Liquidity Risks and Uncertainties

The Company’s access to capital and liquidity currently includes the following:

	a)	An At-The-Market Equity Offering Sales Agreement, dated April 2, 2020 (the “ATM”) for $50 million, of which approximately $14.5 million remained as of September 30, 2021 (see Note 5).

	b)	A $40 million stock purchase agreement with Lincoln Park Capital Fund, LLC (“LPC”) dated as of May 14, 2020 (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”), of which approximately $28.2 million remains available as of September 30, 2021. The Stock Purchase Agreement provides for issuances through May 2023 at the Company’s discretion (see Note 5).

NOTE 2 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to the Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required to be presented for complete financial statements. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring items) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2021 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2021 (the “2021 Annual Report”), was filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on June 10, 2021 and amended on July 23, 2021. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the 2021 Annual Report.

Principles of Consolidation

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and the accounts of all of the Company’s subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the accompanying financial statements.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its significant estimates including accruals for expenses under consulting, licensing agreements, and clinical trials, stock-based compensation, and the determination of deferred tax attributes and the valuation allowance thereon.

Other Risks and Uncertainties

The Company is subject to risks common to medical device and development stage companies including, but not limited to, new technological innovations, regulatory approval, dependence on key personnel, protection of proprietary technology, compliance with government regulations, product liability, uncertainty of market acceptance of products and the potential need to obtain additional financing. The Company is dependent on third-party suppliers and, in some cases single-source suppliers.

BEYOND AIR, INC. AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

NOTE 2 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

The Company’s products require approval or clearance from the FDA prior to commencement of commercial sales in the United States. There can be no assurance that the Company’s products will receive all of the required approvals or clearances. Approvals or clearances are also required in foreign jurisdictions in which the Company may license or sell its products. If the Company is denied such approvals or clearances or such approvals or clearances are delayed, such denial or delay may have a material adverse impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position and liquidity. Further, there can be no assurance that the Company’s product will be accepted in the marketplace, nor can there be any assurance that any future products can be developed or manufactured at an acceptable cost and with appropriate performance characteristics, or that such products will be successfully marketed, if at all.

The development of the Company’s product candidates could be further disrupted and adversely affected by a resurgence of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company experienced significant delays in the supply chain for LungFit^®due to the redundancy in parts and suppliers with ventilator manufacturing which has since been remedied. The Company continuously assesses the impact COVID-19 may have on the Company’s business plans and its ability to conduct the preclinical studies and clinical trials as well as on the Company’s reliance on third-party manufacturing and global supply chains. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to avoid part or all of any impact from COVID-19 or its consequences if a resurgence occurs.

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase and an investment in a U.S. government money market fund to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents in highly rated financial institutions in Israel, Ireland and the U.S., the balances of which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits.

The Company has no off-balance-sheet concentration of credit risk such as foreign exchange contracts, option contracts or other foreign hedging arrangements.

As of September 30, 2021 and March 31, 2021, restricted cash included $1,019 thousand and $619 thousand designated for a contract manufacturer, respectively. This cash is expected to be used for materials and parts that require long lead times. See Note 14 for additional restrictions subsequent to year end.

The following table is the reconciliation of the presentation and disclosure of financial instruments as shown on the Company’s consolidated statements of cash flows:


(amounts in thousands)	September 30, 2021		September 30, 2020
Cash and cash equivalents	$	47,699	$	21,717
Restricted cash		1,047		636
Total	$	48,746	$	22,353

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To determine revenue recognition for contracts with customers, the Company performs the following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer, (ii) identify the performance obligation(s) in the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligation(s) in the contract and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies the performance obligation(s). At contract inception, the Company assesses the goods or services promised within each contract, assesses whether each promised good or service is distinct and identifies those promised goods or services that are performance obligations.

The Company uses judgment to determine (a) the number of performance obligations based on the determination under step (ii) above and whether those performance obligations are distinct from other performance obligations in the contract (b) the transaction price under step (iii) above and (c) the stand-alone selling price for each performance obligation identified in the contract for the allocation of the transaction price in step (iv) above. The Company also uses judgment to determine whether milestones or other variable consideration, except for royalties, should be included in the transaction price. The transaction price is allocated to each performance obligation on an estimated stand-alone selling price basis, for which the Company recognizes revenue as or when the performance obligations under contract are satisfied. Where a portion of non-refundable up-front fees or other payments received are allocated to continuing performance obligations under the terms of a license arrangement, such fees or other payments are recorded as contract liabilities and recognized as revenue when (or as) the underlying performance obligation is satisfied.

NOTE 2 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Grant receivable

Under a collaboration arrangement with the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation (“CFF”), grant milestones are achieved subject to certain performance steps and requirements under a development program. Grant milestones are recorded as reimbursements against the applicable portion of the Company’s research and development expenses. Such reimbursements are reflected as a reduction of research and development expenses in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations, as the performance of research and development services for reimbursement is not considered to be an ongoing component or central to the Company’s operations.

Segment Reporting

Operating segments are identified as components of an enterprise about which separate discrete financial information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision-maker in making decisions regarding resource allocation and assessing performance. To date, the Company views its operations and manages its business as one segment.

Research and Development

Research and development expenses are charged to the statement of operations as incurred. Research and development expenses include salaries, benefits, stock-based compensation and costs incurred by outside laboratories, manufacturers, clinical research organizations, consultants, and accredited facilities in connection with preclinical studies and clinical trials. Research and development expenses are partially offset by the benefit of tax incentive payments for qualified research and development expenditures from the Australian tax authority (“AU Tax Rebates”). The Company does not record AU Tax Rebates until payment is received due to the uncertainty of receipt. To date, the Company has not received any AU Tax Rebates.

NOTE 2 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Foreign Exchange Transactions

The Company’s subsidiaries transact in U.S. dollars, Euros, New Israeli Shekels and Australian dollars. The Company’s main operations are in the United States and 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. The Company translated its non-U.S. operations’ assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies into U.S. dollars at current rates of exchange as of the balance sheet date and income and expense items at the average exchange rate for the reporting period. Translation adjustments resulting from exchange rate fluctuations as of September 30, 2021 and March 31, 2021 were not material. Gains or losses from foreign currency transactions are included in other income (expense) in the statement of operations as foreign currency exchange gain/(loss).

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company measures the cost of employee and non-employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant date fair value of the award. Fair value for restricted stock awards is valued using the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. The grant date fair value is recognized over the requisite service period during which an employee and non-employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award. The grant date fair value of employee and non-employee share options is estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The risk-free interest rate assumptions were based upon the observed interest rates appropriate for the expected term of the equity instruments. The expected dividend yield was assumed to be zero as the Company has not paid any dividends since its inception and does not anticipate paying dividends in the foreseeable future. Due to the Company’s limited trading history, the Company utilizes weighting of its historical volatility and the implied volatility based on an aggregate of guideline companies. The Company uses the simplified method to estimate the expected term.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated amortization. Depreciation and amortization are calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the assets as follows:

Computer equipment	Three years
Furniture and fixtures	Seven years
Clinical and medical equipment	Five or Fifteen years
Leasehold improvements	Shorter of term of lease or estimated useful life of the asset

Licensed Right to Use Technology

Licensed right to use technology that is considered platform technology with alternative future uses is recorded as an intangible asset and is amortized on a straight-line method over its estimated useful life, determined to be thirteen years (see Note 14).

The expected amortization expense for the next five years and thereafter is as follows for the year ended March 31 (in thousands):


Remainder of 2022	$	19
2023		38
2024		38
2025		38
2026		38

Long-Lived Assets

The Company assess the impairment of long-lived assets on an ongoing basis and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Factors that the Company considers as potential triggers of an impairment review include the following:

●	significant underperformance relative to expected historical or projected future operating results,
●	significant changes in the manner of the Company’s use of the acquired assets or the strategy for its overall business,
●	significant negative regulatory or economic trends, and
●	significant technological changes, which would render the platform technology, equipment, and manufacturing processes obsolete.

NOTE 2 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Long-Lived Assets

Recoverability of assets that will continue to be used in the Company’s operations is measured by comparing the carrying value to the future net undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset or asset group. Future undiscounted cash flows include estimates of future revenues, driven by market growth rates, and estimates of future costs. There were no events during the reporting periods that were deemed to be a triggering event that would require an impairment assessment.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Accordingly, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in the tax rate is recognized in income or expense in the period that the change is effective. Tax benefits are recognized when it is probable that the deduction will be sustained. A valuation allowance is established when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of a deferred tax asset will either expire before the Company is able to realize the benefit, or that future deductibility is uncertain. As of September 30, 2021 and March 31, 2021, the Company recorded a valuation allowance to the full extent of the Company’s net deferred tax assets since the likelihood of realization of the benefit does not meet the more-likely-than-not threshold.

The Company files U.S. federal, various state, and international income tax returns. Uncertain tax positions are reviewed on an ongoing basis and are adjusted in light of changing facts and circumstances. Such adjustment is reflected in the tax provision when appropriate. The Company will recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits in income taxes in the statements of operations. Tax years 2017 through 2021 remain open to examination by federal and state tax jurisdictions. The Company files tax returns in Israel for which tax years 2015 through 2021 remain open. In addition, the Company files tax returns in Ireland and Australia for which tax years 2020 and 2021 remain open.

Net Income (Loss) Per Share

Basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is computed by dividing the net loss and deemed dividend from a warrant modification to common stockholders, if any, by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. The dilutive effect of outstanding options, warrants, restricted stock and other stock-based compensation awards is reflected in diluted net income (loss) per share by application of the treasury stock method. The calculation of diluted net income (loss) attributed to common stockholders per share excludes all anti-dilutive shares of common stock. For periods in which the Company has reported net losses, diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is the same as basic net loss per share attributable to common stockholders, because such shares of common stock are not assumed to have been issued if their effect is anti-dilutive, see Note 9.

New Accounting Standards

There are no recently issued accounting standards that have been adopted in the current period or will be adopted in future periods that have had or are expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

NOTE 3 FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

The Company’s financial instruments primarily include cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts payable, and a short-term loan. Due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments, the carrying amounts of these assets and liabilities approximate their fair value. The long-term debt approximates fair value due to the prevailing market conditions for similar debt with remaining maturity and terms.

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the reporting date. The accounting guidance establishes a three-tiered hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in the valuation methodologies in measuring fair value. A fair value hierarchy has been established for valuation inputs that give the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The fair value hierarchy is as follows:

	Level 1 -	quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

	Level 2 -	inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; or

	Level 3 -	unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

NOTE 4 PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Property and equipment consist of the following as of September 30, 2021 and March 31, 2021:

On April 1, 2019, the Company early adopted ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), as amended (“ASU 2016-02”), which generally requires lessees to recognize operating and financing lease liabilities and corresponding right-of-use assets on the balance sheet and to provide enhanced disclosures surrounding the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leasing arrangements. The right-of use assets and operating lease liability as of September 30, 2021 and March 31, 2021 are as follows:

SCHEDULE OF OPERATING LEASE LIABILITY

Operating lease liability long-term		1,684		1,789
Total	$	1,862	$	1,903

Operating lease liabilities and their corresponding right-of-use assets are recorded based on the present value of lease payments over the expected remaining lease term. Certain adjustments to the right-of-use asset may be required for items such as prepaid or accrued rent. The interest rate implicit in the Company’s leases is typically not readily determinable. As a result, the Company utilizes its incremental borrowing rate, which reflects the fixed rate at which the Company could borrow on a collateralized basis the amount of the lease payments in the same currency, for a similar term, in a similar economic environment. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is included in general and administrative and research development expenses. The Company has other operating lease agreements with commitments of less than one year or that are not significant. The Company elected the practical expedient option and as such these lease payments are expensed as incurred.

NOTE 12 LONG-TERM LOAN

On March 17, 2020, the Company entered into the Facility Agreement with certain lenders for up to $25.0 million in five tranches of $5.0 million per tranche. Such tranches are at the option of the Company provided, however that the Company may only utilize tranches three through five following FDA approval of the LungFit^®PH product. The loan(s) are unsecured with interest at 10% per year which is to be paid quarterly. The loans may be prepaid with certain prepayment penalties. The effective interest rate for this loan is 13.3% per year. Each tranche shall be repaid in installments commencing on June 15, 2023 with all amounts outstanding under any tranche due on March 17, 2025. The Company received proceeds from the first tranche in fiscal year 2020. A lender who is an over 5% stockholder loaned the Company $3,160 thousand of the first tranche and, as such, related party interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020 was $158 thousand and $158 thousand (not including amortization of debt discount and deferred offering costs), respectively.

In connection with the first tranche, the Company issued, in March 2020, warrants to the lenders for the purchase of 172,826 shares of the Company’s common stock at $7.26 per share. The warrants expire in five years. There are additional warrant issuances associated with each tranche. If the second tranche of $5 million is utilized by the Company, the warrants that will be issued are up to 25% of their commitment value divided by the five-day volume-weighted average price (“VWAP”) prior to the utilization date. If any of tranches three to five are utilized by the Company, the warrants that will be issued are up to 10% of their commitment value divided by the five-day VWAP. The Company allocated the fair market value of the warrants at the date of grant to stockholders’ equity and reflected a debt discount of $595 thousand. Debt discount and debt issuance costs are amortized over the life of the loan.

In August 2020, the Company entered into a supply agreement expiring on December 31, 2024. The agreement will renew automatically for successive three-year periods unless and until the Company provides 12 months’ notice of the intent not to renew the agreement. The Company has placed several purchase orders under the aforementioned agreement. The non-cancellable portion of the purchase orders with this supplier as of September 30, 2021 is approximately $1.1 million. Additionally, long lead time materials in the amount of $1.0 million have been ordered on behalf of the Company, see Note 2.

Contingencies

On March 16, 2018, Empery Asset Master, Ltd., Empery Tax Efficient, LP and Empery Tax Efficient II, LP, (collectively, “Empery”) filed a complaint in the Supreme Court of the State of New York (the “Trial Court”) against the Company relating to anti-dilution provisions in a 2016 warrant agreement (the “2016 Warrant Agreement”) for 166,672 warrants between the Company and Empery. The complaint alleged three claims arising out of a 2018 transaction in which the Company issued additional warrants and common stock to second-round investors for a share price lower than that contained in the 2016 Warrant Agreement: a breach of contract claim alleging that the Company did not provide a Certificate of Adjustment that is correct as to the exercise price and share amount; a declaratory judgment claim seeking a determination as to the proper exercise price and share amount; and a claim for reformation of Section 3(b) of the Warrant Agreement on the grounds of mutual mistake.

On August 20, 2020, the Trial Court denied the Company’s summary judgment motion as to the first and third claims for relief, but dismissed the second claim for declaratory judgment as moot (the “August 20 Decision”). The Appellate Division First Department denied the Company’s appeal of the August 20 Decision on September 30, 2021.

In an event subsequent to September 30, 2021, following a three-day bench trial, the Trial Court issued a decision on October 14, 2021, finding in favor of Empery on the two remaining claims, granting reformation of the Warrant Agreement, and awarding Empery damages in the aggregate amount of approximately $5.8 million plus prejudgment interest (the “October 14 Decision”).

The Company intends to appeal the October 14 decision. Pending appeal, the Company is required to use approximately $7.4 million of cash as collateral to secure a supersedeas bond for the full amount of damages and interest in the case that the Company is unsuccessful in its appeal.

The Company, in consultation with outside legal counsel, believe that they have several meritorious defenses against the claims, and the decision of the Trial Court. However, the ultimate resolution of the matter on appeal, if unfavorable, could result in losses in excess of the Company’s current estimate which may be material to the financial statements. See Note 7.

In addition to Empery, there were 1,139,220 2017 Warrants held by investors who did not participate in the February 2018 financing transaction. Any further adjustments to the 2017 Warrants pursuant to their antidilution provisions may result in additional dilution to the interests of the Company’s stockholders and may adversely affect the market price of the Company’s common stock. The antidilution provisions may also limit the Company’s ability to obtain additional financing on terms favorable to it.

Introduction

We are a clinical-stage medical device and biopharmaceutical company developing a nitric oxide (“NO”) generator and delivery system (the “LungFit^® system”) capable of generating NO from ambient air. The LungFit^®platform can generate NO up to 400 parts per million (“ppm”) for delivery to a patient’s lungs directly or via a ventilator. LungFit^®can deliver NO either continuously or for a fixed amount of time at various flow rates and has the ability to either titrate dose on demand or maintain a constant dose. We believe that LungFit^® can be used to treat patients on ventilators that require NO, as well as patients with chronic or acute severe lung infections via delivery through a breathing mask or similar apparatus. Furthermore, we believe that there is a high unmet medical need for patients suffering from certain severe lung infections that the LungFit^®platform can potentially address. The Company’s current areas of focus with LungFit^®are persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn (PPHN), acute viral pneumonia (AVP) including COVID-19, bronchiolitis (BRO) and nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) lung infection. The Company’s current product candidates will be subject to premarket reviews and approvals by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, (the “FDA”), CE marking conformity assessment by a notified body in the European Union (the “E.U.”), as well as similar regulatory agencies’ reviews or approvals in other countries or regions. If approved, the Company’s system will be marketed as a medical device in the U.S.

An additional program of Beyond Air targets solid tumors, through our majority-owned affiliate Beyond Cancer, Ltd. For the solid tumor indication the LungFit^® platform is not utilized due to need for ultra-high concentrations of gaseous nitric oxide (“UNO”). A proprietary delivery system has been developed that can safely deliver UNO in excess of 10,000 ppm directly to a solid tumor. This program is in preclinical development and will require approval from the FDA or similar regulatory agencies in other countries to enter human studies. We anticipate beginning the enrollment of patients into the first human trial in the first quarter of calendar year 2022.

LungFit^® is the first system with patented technology that generates NO using room air, enabling the delivery of unlimited, on-demand NO regardless of dose or flow. To generate the NO, a pump within the LungFit^® flows room air through a small chamber where power, equivalent to a 60-watt lightbulb, ionizes the oxygen and nitrogen molecules. The molecules recombine as NO. We believe that the on-demand delivery, either to a ventilator circuit or directly to a patient’s lungs, is safe due to the Company’s system design and the Company’s proprietary nitrogen dioxide (“NO₂”) filter. The NO₂ filter removes toxic NO₂for 12 hours when used for PPHN and shorter periods for treating other conditions that require NO concentrations of 150 ppm or more.

With respect to PPHN, our novel LungFit^® PH is designed to deliver a dosage of NO to the lungs that is consistent with current guidelines for delivery of 20 ppm NO with a range of 0.5 ppm – 80 ppm (low-concentration NO) for ventilated patients. We believe the ability of LungFit^® PH to generate NO from ambient air provides us with many competitive advantages over the current standard of NO delivery systems in the U.S., the E.U., Japan and other markets. For example, LungFit^®PH does not require the use of a high-pressure cylinder, does not require cumbersome purging procedures and places less burden on hospital staff in carrying out safety procedures.

Our novel LungFit^®platform can also deliver a high concentration (>150 ppm) of NO directly to the lungs, which we believe has the potential to eliminate microbial infections including bacteria, fungi and viruses, among others. We believe that current FDA-approved NO vasodilation treatments would have limited success in treating microbial infections given the low concentrations of NO being delivered (<100 ppm). Given that NO is produced naturally by the body as an innate immunity mechanism, at a concentration of 200 ppm, supplemental high dose NO should aid in the body’s fight against infection. Based on our preclinical and clinical studies, we believe that 150 ppm is the minimum therapeutic dose to achieve the desired pulmonary antimicrobial effect of NO. To date, neither the FDA nor equivalent regulatory agencies in other countries or regions have approved any NO formulation and/or delivery system for >80 ppm NO.

LungFit^®PH for the treatment of Persistent Pulmonary Hypertension of the Newborn

In November 2020 we submitted a PMA application to the FDA for the use of LungFit^®PH in PPHN. There is a standard 180-day review process that starts upon the FDA’s acknowledgement of the submission, though PMA reviews oftentimes take much longer, sometimes over a year or more. Moreover, the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and an increased volume of submissions have led to longer review times by the FDA. We anticipate an FDA decision on the PMA towards the end of calendar year 2021.

We also expect to receive the CE Mark under the Medical Device Regulation (“MDR”) in the E.U. in the first half of calendar year 2022. According to the most recent year-end report from Mallinckrodt Pharmaceuticals, sales of NO were $574.1 million in 2020 (up from $571.4 million in 2019) for the United States, Canada, Japan, Mexico and Australia, with >90% in the United States. Outside of the U.S. there are multiple market participants which translates to considerably lower sales than in the U.S. We believe the U.S. sales potential of LungFit^®PH in PPHN to be greater than $300 million and worldwide sales potential to be greater than $600 million. If regulatory approval is obtained, we anticipate a product launch in the U.S. in the fourth quarter of calendar 2021 and will continue to launch in the EU and globally in 2022 and beyond.

LungFit^®PRO for the treatment of viral lung infections in hospitalized patients

Acute Viral Pneumonia (including COVID-19)

Viral pneumonia in adults is most commonly caused by rhinovirus, respiratory syncytial virus (“RSV”) and influenza virus. However, newly emerging viruses (including SARS-CoV-1, SARS-CoV-2, avian influenza A, and H1N1 viruses) have been identified as pathogens contributing to the overall burden of adult viral pneumonia. COVID-19 is an infectious disease caused by SARS-CoV-2, that has resulted in a global pandemic. Excluding the pandemic, there are approximately 350,000 annual viral pneumonia hospitalizations in the US, and 16 million annual viral pneumonia hospitalizations globally. For the broader AVP, we believe U.S. sales potential to be greater than $1.5 billion and worldwide market potential to be greater than $3 billion.

We initiated a pilot study in late 2020 using our novel LungFit^® PRO system at 150 ppm to treat patients with acute viral pneumonia (AVP), including COVID-19. The ongoing trial is a multi-center, open-label, randomized clinical trial in Israel, including patients infected with SARS-CoV-2. Patients are randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive either inhalations of 150 ppm NO given intermittently for 40 minutes four times per day for up to seven days in addition to standard supportive treatment (“NO+SST”) or standard supportive treatment alone (“SST”). Endpoints related to safety (primary endpoint), oxygen saturation and ICU admission, among others, will be assessed.

We reported interim data from this ongoing trial at the American Thoracic Society or ATS International Conference 2021, which was held virtually from May 14, 2021 through May 19, 2021. At the time of the data cut off, the intent-to-treat (“ITT”) analysis population included 19 COVID-19 patients (9 NO + SST vs 10 SST). The data readout showed that 150 ppm NO treatment administered via LungFit^®PRO was safe and well tolerated and demonstrated encouraging efficacy signals. From a safety perspective, there were no treatment-related, or possibly related, adverse events or severe adverse events. NO₂levels were below 4 ppm at all timepoints (trial safety threshold is 5 ppm) and methemoglobin (“MetHb”) levels were below 4% at all times (trial safety threshold is 10%). With respect to the requirement of oxygen support beyond hospital stay, 22.2% of subjects in the NO + SST group compared with 40% of control subjects had this requirement. There was an observable trend of shortening the duration of hospital stay and duration on oxygen support for treated patients. The pilot study in adult viral pneumonia, including COVID-19, remains active with trial sites open for enrollment. Additional detailed study results may be submitted for presentation at an upcoming scientific meeting.

Bronchiolitis (BRO)

Bronchiolitis is the leading cause of hospital admission in children less than 1 year of age. The incidence is estimated to be 150 million new cases a year worldwide, with 2-3% (over 3 million) of them severe enough to require hospitalization. Worldwide, 95%³ of all cases occur in developing countries. In the U.S., there are more than 120,000 annual bronchiolitis hospitalizations and approximately 3.2 million annual child hospitalizations globally. Currently, there is no approved treatment for bronchiolitis. The treatment for acute viral lung infections that cause bronchiolitis in infants is largely supportive care and is based primarily on prolonged hospitalization during which the infant receives a constant flow of oxygen to treat hypoxemia, a reduced concentration of oxygen in the blood. In addition, systemic steroids and inhalation with bronchodilators are sometimes utilized until recovery, but we believe that these treatments do not successfully reduce hospital length of stay. We believe the U.S. market potential for bronchiolitis to be greater than $500 million and worldwide market potential to be greater than $1.2 billion.

Our BRO program is currently on hold due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The pivotal study for bronchiolitis was originally set to be performed in the winter of 2020/21 but was delayed due to the pandemic. We have completed three successful pilot studies for bronchiolitis. A further analysis of the three previously reported pilot studies was presented at the ATS International Conference 2021, which was held virtually from May 14, 2021 through May 19, 2021. Analysis across the studies (n=198 infants, mean age 3.9 months) showed that 150 ppm – 160 ppm NO administered intermittently was generally safe and well tolerated with adverse event rates similar among treatment groups with no reported treatment-related serious adverse events. The short course of treatments with intermittent high concentration inhaled NO was effective in shortening hospital length of stay and accelerating time to fit for discharge – a composite endpoint of clinical signs and symptoms to indicate readiness to be evaluated for hospital discharge. This treatment was also effective in accelerating time to stable oxygen saturation – measured as SpO2 ≥ 92% in room air. Additionally, NO at a dose of 85 ppm NO showed no difference compared to control for all efficacy endpoints, while 150 ppm NO showed statistical significance when compared to control.

We believe that the entirety of data at 150 ppm - 160 ppm NO in both adult and infant patient populations supports further development of LungFit^®PRO in a pivotal study for patients hospitalized with viral pneumonia.

LungFit^®GO for the treatment of Nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM)

NTM lung infection is a rare and serious pulmonary disease associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Patients with NTM lung disease may experience a multitude of symptoms such as fever, weight loss, cough, lack of appetite, night sweats, blood in the sputum and fatigue. Patients with NTM lung disease, specifically Mycobacterium abscessus (M.abscessus) representing 20% - 25% of all NTM and other forms of NTM that are refractory to antibiotic therapy, frequently require lengthy and repeated hospital stays to manage their condition. There are no treatments specifically indicated for the treatment of M. abscessus lung disease in North America, Europe or Japan.

There are approximately 50,000 to 90,000 people with NTM infections in the U.S. In Asia, the number of patients suffering from NTM surpasses what is seen in the U.S. There is one inhaled antibiotic approved for the treatment of refractory Mycobacterium avium complex (“MAC”). Current guideline-based approaches to treat NTM lung disease involve multi-drug regimens of antibiotics that may cause severe, long lasting side effects, and treatment can be as long as 18 months or more. Median survival for NTM MAC patients is approximately 13 years while median survival for patients with other variations of NTM is typically 4.6 years. The prevalence of human disease attributable to NTM has increased over the past two decades. In a study conducted between 2007 and 2016, researchers found that the prevalence of NTM in the U.S. is increasing at approximately 7.5% per year. M. abscessus treatment costs are estimated to be more than double that of MAC. In total, a 2015 publication by co-authors from several U.S. government departments stated that annual cases in 2014 cost the U.S. healthcare system approximately $1.7 billion. For this indication, we believe U.S. sales potential to be greater than $1 billion and worldwide sales potential to be greater than $2.5 billion.

In December 2020 we began a 12-week, multi-center, open-label clinical trial in Australia and we plan to enroll approximately 20 adult patients with chronic refractory NTM lung disease. We received a grant of up to $2.17 million from the CFF to fund this study and advance the clinical development of inhaled NO to treat NTM pulmonary disease. The trial is enrolling both cystic fibrosis (“CF”) and non-CF patients infected with MAC or M. abscessus. The study consists of a run-in period followed by two treatment phases. The run-in period provides a baseline for the efficacy endpoints. The first treatment phase takes place over a two-week period and begins in the hospital setting where patients will be titrated from 150 ppm NO up to 250 ppm NO over several days. During this phase patients receive NO for 40 minutes, four times per day while MetHb levels are monitored. Patients are also trained to use LungFit^® GO and subsequently discharged to complete the remaining portion of the two-week treatment period at their home at the highest tolerated NO concentration. For the second treatment phase, a 10-week maintenance phase, the administration is twice daily. The study is evaluating safety, quality of life, physical function, and bacterial load among other parameters.

We reported positive interim results in October 2021. At the time of data cutoff on September 6, 2021, eight subjects were successfully titrated up to 250 ppm NO in the hospital setting, and none required dose reductions during the subsequent at-home portion of the study. The mean age of subjects was 56.6 years (range: 22 – 73 years) with the majority female (87.5%), a distribution consistent with real-world NTM disease, and occurring at a higher rate in older adult women than men. 250 ppm NO was well-tolerated in all subjects with no study discontinuations or treatment-related serious adverse events observed. Methemoglobin and NO₂ concentrations remained within acceptable ranges in all subjects during NO treatment, and below the safety thresholds of 10% and 5 ppm, respectively. The study continues to enroll patients, and we anticipate reporting the complete efficacy and safety results in calendar year 2022. If the trial is successful, we would anticipate commencing a pivotal study in the first half of calendar year 2023.

The Company’s program in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (“COPD”) is in the preclinical stage and will remain there, subject to obtaining additional financing.

Ultra-High Concentration NO in solid tumors through majority-owned affiliate Beyond Cancer, Ltd.

In November 2021, we secured commitments of $23.9 million in a concurrent private placement of common shares, not to exceed $30 million, providing the investors with up to 20% equity ownership in Beyond Cancer, a new and independently managed, private company. The funding is expected to be used to accelerate ongoing preclinical work including the completion of IND-enabling studies, completion of a Phase 1 study, expansion of preclinical programs for combination studies, hiring of additional Beyond Cancer team members, and optimization of the delivery system, as well as for general corporate purposes. The concurrent private placement is expected to close in the fourth fiscal quarter.

Beyond Cancer will benefit from Beyond Air’s NO expertise, IP portfolio, preclinical oncology team, and regulatory progress, and will pay Beyond Air a single digit royalty on all future revenues. Beyond Cancer will be led by a seasoned leadership team with experience in emerging healthcare companies and clinical oncology.

Selena Chaisson, MD, will be Beyond Cancer’s Chief Executive Officer. Previously, Dr. Chaisson was the Director of Healthcare Investments at Bailard, where she spent 16 years focusing on highly specialized, emerging healthcare opportunities with more than one-third of her portfolio dedicated to investing in oncology companies. Prior to Bailard, Dr. Chaisson held senior executive roles at RCM Capital Management and Tiger Management. RCM Capital Management was acquired and then merged with Allianz Global Investors U.S. in 2013. Dr. Chaisson received a BS in microbiology in 1987 from Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge, LA, where she graduated summa cum laude. She earned her MBA and MD from Stanford University in 1992 and 1993, respectively.

The complete Beyond Cancer Board of Directors, Scientific Advisory Board and headquarters will be announced as they are finalized. The Board of Directors is expected to consist of six members, four of whom will include:

	●	Steve Lisi, Chairman of the Board, and CEO and Chairman of the Board of Beyond Air
	●	Selena Chaisson, MD, Director, and Chief Executive Officer of Beyond Cancer
	●	Amir Avniel, Executive Director, and COO and Co-Founder of Beyond Air
	●	Robert Carey, Director, and Board Member of Beyond Air

Ultra-high concentration NO has shown anticancer properties in preclinical trials by eliciting an immune response from the host. We have released this preclinical data at several medical/scientific conferences showing the promise of delivering NO at concentrations of 20,000 ppm – 200,000 ppm directly to tumors. Results showed that local tumor ablation with NO conveyed anti-tumor immunity to the host. In our most recent release of data, 8 of 11 mice treated with a single administration of 25,000 ppm NO over five minutes were resistant to a subsequent tumor challenge and 11 of 11 mice treated with 50,000 ppm NO were resistant to a subsequent tumor challenge. Preclinical work will continue with a goal of beginning the enrollment of patients in a first-in-human study in the first quarter of calendar year 2022.

COVID-19

The development of the our product candidates could be further disrupted and adversely affected by a resurgence of the COVID-19 pandemic. We experienced significant delays in the supply chain for LungFit^® due to the redundancy in parts and suppliers with ventilator manufacturing which has since been remedied. We continuously assess the impact that COVID-19 may have on our business plans and our ability to conduct the preclinical studies and clinical trials as well as on our reliance on third-party manufacturing and our supply chain. However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to avoid part or all of any impact from COVID-19 or its consequences if a resurgence occurs.

Critical Accounting Estimates and Policies

A critical accounting policy and related estimates are both important to the portrayal of a company’s financial condition and results of operations and requires management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain.

Our unaudited consolidated financial statements are presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and all applicable U.S. GAAP accounting standards effective as of September 30, 2021 have been taken into consideration in preparing the unaudited consolidated financial statements. The preparation of unaudited consolidated financial statements requires estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, expenses and related disclosures. Some of those estimates are subjective and complex, and, consequently, actual results could differ from those estimates. The following accounting policies and estimates have been highlighted as significant because changes to certain judgments and assumptions inherent in these policies could affect our consolidated financial statements:

	●	Contingent Loss judgments and estimates,

	●	Research and development expense recognition,

	●	Stock-based compensation valuation and attribution, and

	●	Income Taxes

Off-Balance-Sheet Arrangements

As of September 30, 2021, we did not have any off-balance-sheet arrangements as defined in the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

We have not generated any revenue from the sale of products, and we do not expect to generate revenue from the sale of our products until certification or regulatory approval is received for our product candidates. We had an operating cash flow decrease of $8.9 million for the six months ended September 30, 2021 and we have experienced an accumulated loss of $95.9 million as of September 30, 2021. As of September 30, 2021, we had cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of $48.7 million. We believe that our cash and cash equivalents as of September 30, 2021, will enable us to fund our development programs, operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements for at least one year from the date of filing these financial statements.

Our future capital needs and the adequacy of available funds will depend on many factors, including, but not necessarily limited to, the cost and time necessary for the development, preclinical studies and clinical trials and certification or regulatory approval of our other medical devices, indications as well as the commercial success of our first product candidates that receive marketing approval by the FDA. We may be required to raise additional funds through equity or debt securities offerings or strategic collaboration and/or licensing agreements in order to fund operations until we are able to generate enough product or royalty revenues, if any. Such financing may not be available on acceptable terms, or at all, and our failure to raise capital when needed could have a material adverse effect on our strategic objectives, results of operations and financial condition.

There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain additional equity or debt financing on terms acceptable to us, if at all.

On April 2, 2020, we entered into the ATM Offering Sales Agreement with SunTrust Robinson Humphrey, Inc. and Oppenheimer & Co. Under the ATM, we may sell shares of our common stock having aggregate sales proceeds of up to $50 million, from time to time and at various prices. If shares of our common stock are sold, there is a 3% fee paid to the sales agent. As of September 30, 2021, there was a balance of approximately $14.5 million available under the ATM.

On May 14, 2020, we entered into the $40 million Stock Purchase Agreement LPC, which replaced the former $20 million purchase agreement with LPC, dated August 10, 2018. The Stock Purchase Agreement provides for the issuance of up to $40 million of our common stock, which we may sell from time to time in our sole discretion, to LPC over the next 36 months, subject to the conditions and limitations in the Stock Purchase Agreement. As of September 30, 2021, there was a balance of approximately $28.2 million available under the Stock Purchase Agreement.

Our ability to continue to operate beyond 12 months from the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q will be largely dependent upon the approval of our PMA for the PPHN medical device, the expected timing and commercial acceptance of the launch of this device, as well as our obtaining partners in other parts of the world, and our raising additional funds to finance our activities until we are generating cash flow from operations. There are no assurances that we will be successful in obtaining an adequate level of financing for the development and commercialization of our other product candidates.

There are numerous risks and uncertainties associated with the development of our NO delivery system and we are unable to estimate the amounts of increased capital outlays and operating expenses associated with the completion of the research and development of our product candidates.

Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including:

	●	the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, the medical community and the global economy;
	●	the progress and costs of our preclinical studies, clinical trials and other research and development activities;
	●	the costs of commercializing the LungFit^® system, if approved;
	●	the scope, prioritization and number of our clinical trials and other research and development programs;
	●	the costs and timing of obtaining certification or regulatory approval for our product candidates;
	●	the costs of filing, prosecuting, enforcing and defending patent claims and other intellectual property rights;
	●	the costs of, and timing for, strengthening our manufacturing agreements for production of sufficient clinical quantities of our product candidate;
	●	the potential costs of contracting with third parties to provide marketing and distribution services for us or for building such capacities internally;
	●	the costs of acquiring or undertaking the development and commercialization efforts for additional, future therapeutic applications of our product candidates;
	●	the magnitude of our general and administrative expenses; and
	●	any cost that we may incur under current and future in-and out-licensing arrangements relating to our product candidates.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are exposed to market risks in the ordinary course of our business. Market risk represents the risk of loss that may impact our financial position due to adverse changes in financial market prices and rates. Our market risk exposure is primarily a result of foreign currency exchange rates.

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (our principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (our principal financial officer), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based upon our evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of September 30, 2021.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

On August 20, 2021, the Company announced the appointment of Douglas Larson as its new Chief Financial Officer, succeeding Douglas Beck effective September 1, 2021. Mr. Beck will remain a consultant to the Company and is working closely with Mr. Larson and the Beyond Air leadership team to ensure a seamless transition of CFO responsibilities, including maintaining a robust control environment.

During the three months ended September 30, 2021, there were no changes made to our internal controls over financial reporting that materially affected, or that are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal controls over financial reporting.
