11th February, 2025

Company highlights financial performance, strategic initiatives, and pipeline advancements.

Beyond Air, Inc., a commercial stage medical device and biopharmaceutical company focused on harnessing the power of nitric oxide (NO) to improve the lives of patients, today announced its financial results for the fiscal third quarter ended December 31, 2024, and provided a corporate update.

“Our commercial team continues to make significant progress as we expand the number of U.S. hospitals utilizing LungFit PH. While this is the culmination of years of work, it was approximately nine months ago that we started to make significant headway in our commercial efforts with the fully updated system. We expect to continue generating double digit sequential quarterly revenue growth for the foreseeable future,” said Steve Lisi, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Beyond Air.

“We ended calendar year 2024 on a high note with the receipt of CE Mark for LungFit PH in Europe, opening a significant portion of the global market outside of the U.S. for our current and future distribution partners to launch their commercial programs for LungFit PH. With the advantage of real-world customer experience and feedback from our U.S. program, combined with our distribution partners’ established sales teams and customer networks, we anticipate a faster commercial ramp-up in these regions compared to what we experienced in the U.S.,” concluded Mr. Lisi.

Financial Results for the Fiscal Third Quarter Ended December 31, 2024

Revenues for the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2024 were $1.1 million compared to $0.4 million for the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2023 and $0.8 million for the previous quarter ended September 30, 2024.

Cost of revenue of $1.3 million was recognized for the three months ended December 31, 2024, compared to $0.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023. Cost of revenue exceeded revenue primarily driven by depreciation of LungFit devices and one-time upgrade costs to systems.

Research and development expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2024 were $3.0 million as compared to $6.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023. The decrease of $3.8 million was primarily attributed to a decrease in salaries, stock-based compensation and to a lesser extent from clinical and pre-clinical studies expenses.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three-month periods ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 were $7.7 million and $9.8 million, respectively. The decrease of $2.1 million was attributed primarily to a reduction in salaries and stock-based compensation cost.

Other expense for the three months ended December 31, 2024 was $2.4 million compared to $0.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023. The increase in other expense of $2.1 million was mainly due to a non-cash loss recorded upon the retirement of the Avenue Capital debt.

Cash burn in the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2024, excluding the impacts of financing and the extinguishment of debt, was $7.6 million.

As of December 31, 2024, the Company reported cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities of $10.9 million, and total debt outstanding of $11.8 million. Debt repayment does not begin until October 2026. The Company’s cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities, along with its cash conservation strategy and anticipated revenue growth are expected to provide sufficient cash runway to support current operating plans well into calendar 2026.
