Current report
The Company has incurred recurring net losses, including a net loss of $48.5 million for the year ended March 31, 2025, compared to $64.3 million for the year ended March 31, 2024 and the Company’s operations have not provided net positive cash flows in the year ended March 31, 2025. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate positive cash flows from operations and to secure additional sources of equity and/or debt financing. Despite the Company’s intent to fund operations through equity and debt financing arrangements, there is no assurance that such financing will be available on terms acceptable to the Company, if at all.
Current report
The Company is actively pursuing strategies to mitigate these risks. However, there can be no assurance that these efforts will prove successful or that the Company will achieve its intended financial stability. The failure to successfully address these going concern risks may materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations. Investors should consider the substantial risks and uncertainties inherent in the Company’s business before investing in the Company’s securities.
Current report
On November 1, 2024, the Company entered into a loan and security agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) for a secured loan with certain lenders including its Chief Executive Officer and Chairman Steven Lisi and director Robert Carey. The Loan Agreement provides for a $11,500,000 loan. The loan bears interest at a rate per annum (subject to increase during an event of default) equal to 15% of which 3% shall be payable in cash and 12% payable in kind through June 30, 2026 and thereafter all in cash. If not earlier repaid in full, the outstanding principal amount of the loan, together with any accrued and unpaid interest, shall be due and payable on October 4, 2034. The Company’s obligations under the Loan Agreement are secured by substantially all of the Company’s assets.
Current report
We are currently listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market. Our failure to maintain our compliance with Nasdaq’s continued listing standards or other requirements could result in our common stock being delisted from Nasdaq, which could adversely affect our liquidity and the trading volume and market price of our common stock and decrease or eliminate your investment.
Current report
Our common stock is currently listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market on Nasdaq under the symbol “XAIR.” Nasdaq requires listed issuers to comply with certain standards in order to remain listed on its exchange. If, for any reason, Nasdaq should delist our securities from trading on its exchange and we are unable to obtain listing on another reputable national securities exchange, a reduction in some or all of the following may occur, each of which could materially adversely affect our stockholders.
Current report
If we violate Nasdaq’s listing requirements, or if we fail to meet any of Nasdaq’s listing standards, our common stock may be delisted. A delisting of our common stock from Nasdaq may materially impair our stockholders’ ability to buy and sell our common stock and could have an adverse effect on the market price of, and the efficiency of the trading market for, our common stock. The delisting of our common stock could significantly impair our ability to raise capital and the value of your shares.
Current report
On August 8, 2024, we received a letter from Nasdaq notifying us that we were no longer in compliance with the $1.00 minimum bid price requirement for continued listing on Nasdaq under the Bid Price Rule. Pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company was provided an initial period of 180 calendar days, or until February 4, 2025, to regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule. On February 5, 2025, Nasdaq notified the Company that Nasdaq’s Staff has determined that the Company is eligible for an additional 180 calendar day period, or until August 4, 2025, to regain compliance. If we fail to regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule until August 4, 2025, or if we fail to continue to meet all applicable continued listing requirements for Nasdaq in the future, Nasdaq could delist our securities. Although Nasdaq has granted us additional 180 calendar days, to regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule, there can be no assurance that we will regain such compliance, or that we will maintain compliance with all applicable continued listing requirement for Nasdaq in the future, and Nasdaq could make a determination to delist our common stock.
Current report
Furthermore, as of June 18, 2025, the closing price of our Common Stock was $0.2023. Pursuant to Nasdaq Rule 5810(c)(3)(A)(iii), if the closing price of our common stock is $0.10 or less for 10 consecutive trading days, we will be issued a Staff Delisting Determination by Nasdaq. If we receive a Staff Delisting Determination Letter resulting from our common stock trading at or below $0.10 for 10 consecutive trading days, we will have 7 calendar days to request a hearing before a Nasdaq hearings panel to review the Staff Delisting Determination, which will determine the delisting of our common stock by Nasdaq. A hearing would then take place within 45 days of the hearing request to determine whether or not our common stock would be delisted. If, in the future, we receive a Staff Delisting Determination there can be no assurance that we would be successful in preventing a determination by the Nasdaq hearing panel that our stock will be delisted.

On June 15, 2023 (the “Closing Date”), Beyond Air, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Beyond Air Ltd., entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Loan and Security Agreement”) with Avenue Capital Management II, L.P., as administrative agent and collateral agent (the “Agent”), Avenue Venture Opportunities Fund, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Avenue”), and Avenue Venture Opportunities Fund II, L.P, a Delaware limited partnership (“Avenue 2” and, together with Avenue, the “Lenders”). Also on June 15, 2023, the Company entered into a Supplement to the Loan and Security Agreement (collectively with the Agreement, the “Loan Agreement”) with the Agent and the Lenders. The Loan Agreement provides for senior secured term loans (the “Loans”) in an aggregate principal amount up to $40.0 million, with (i) $17.5 million advanced on the Closing Date (“Tranche 1”), (ii) up to $10.0 million which may be advanced upon the request of the Company between April 1, 2024 and September 30, 2024, subject to the Company having achieved total revenue derived from the sale of LungFit® PH (other than licensing revenue) (“Product Revenue”) for the three-month period prior to funding of not less than 85% of projected Product Revenue for such period (“Tranche 2”), and (iii) up to $12.5 million which may be advanced after April 1, 2024 (the “Discretionary Tranche”), subject to (a) the Agent and Lenders having received investment committee approval and (b) the Company and Lenders having mutually agreed to draw and fund such amount. The Loans are due and payable on June 1, 2027 (the “Maturity Date”). The Loan principal is repayable in equal monthly installments beginning on January 1, 2025, with the possibility of deferring principal payments an additional 6 to 18 months contingent upon the Company’s achievement of at least $40.0 million of Product Revenue in the fiscal year ending March 31, 2025, provided the Company has fully drawn Tranche 2. The Loans bear interest at a rate per annum (subject to increase during an event of default) equal to the greater of (i) the prime rate, as published by the Wall Street Journal from time to time, plus 3.75% and (ii) 12.00%. The Company may, subject to certain parameters, voluntarily prepay the Loans, in whole or in part, at any time. If prepayment occurs on or before the one-year anniversary of the Closing Date, the Company is required to pay a fee equal to the principal amount of the Loans prepaid multiplied by 3.00%; if prepayment occurs after the one-year anniversary of the Closing Date and on or before the two-year anniversary of the Closing Date, the Company is required to pay a fee equal to the principal amount of the Loans prepaid multiplied by 2.00%; if prepayment occurs after the two-year anniversary and on or before the three-year anniversary of the Closing Date, the Company is required to pay a fee equal to the principal amount of the Loans prepaid multiplied by 1.50%; and if prepayment occurs after the three-ye…

If we are unable to satisfy certain conditions in the Loan Agreement, we will be unable to draw down the remaining tranches of the Loans.
Previous report
Pursuant to the Loan Agreement, we must satisfy certain conditions to be eligible to draw down the Tranche 2 of $10.0 million and the Discretionary Tranche of $12.5 million. Tranche 2 may be advanced upon the request of the Company between April 1, 2024 and September 30, 2024, subject to the Company having achieved Product Revenue for the three-month period prior to funding of not less than 85% of projected Product Revenue for such period. The uncommitted Discretionary Tranche may be advanced after April 1, 2024 subject to (i) the Agent and Lenders having received investment committee approval and (ii) the Company and Lenders having mutually agreed to draw and fund, respectively, such amount. If we are unable to satisfy the conditions for the draw-down of Tranche 2 or the Lenders do not agree to fund the Discretionary Tranche, we would not be able to draw down such tranches and may not be able to obtain alternative financing on commercially reasonable terms or at all.

Previous wording
Pursuant to the Loan Agreement, the Company is subject to a financial covenant requiring the Company to maintain at all times $5.0 million in unrestricted cash, on deposit in a US bank. The Loan Agreement also contains affirmative and negative covenants customary for financings of this type that, among other things, limit the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to (i) incur additional debt, guarantees or liens; (ii) pay any dividends; (iii) enter into certain change of control transactions; (iv) sell, transfer, lease, license, or otherwise dispose of certain assets; (v) make certain investments or loans; and (vi) engage in certain transactions with related persons, in each case, subject to certain exceptions.

Previous wording
Subject to any applicable cure period set forth in the Loan Agreement, all amounts outstanding with respect to the Loans (principal and accrued interest), as well as any applicable prepayment premiums, final payment fees and other obligations and amounts owing under the loan documents, would become due and payable at the option of the Agent at the direction of the Lenders. Our assets or cash flow may not be sufficient to fully repay our obligations under the Loans if the obligations thereunder are accelerated upon any events of default. Further, if we are unable to repay, refinance or restructure our obligations under the Loans, the Agent on behalf of the Lenders could proceed to protect and enforce their rights under the Agreement and the other loan documents by exercising such remedies (including foreclosure on the assets securing our obligations under the Agreement and the other loan documents) as are available to the Agent and the Lenders and in respect thereof under applicable law, either by suit in equity or by action at law, or both, whether for specific performance of any covenant or other agreement contained in the Agreement or the other loan documents or in aid of the exercise of any power granted in the Agreement or other loan documents. The foregoing would materially and adversely affect the ongoing viability of our business.

Previous wording
The covenants in the Loan Agreement may limit our ability to take certain actions that may be in our long-term best interests. In the event that we breach one or more covenants, the Agent at the direction of the Lenders may choose to declare an event of default and require that we immediately repay all amounts outstanding under the Loan Agreement, plus penalties and interest, terminate the Lenders’ commitments to fund any undrawn tranches and foreclose on the collateral granted to them to secure the obligations under the Agreement and the other loan documents. Such repayment could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.

We are working on PPHN which is a highly competitive market. A delivery system with a generator of NO has never been commercialized anywhere in the world, and market acceptance at an appropriate price is proving to be a somewhat difficult and lengthy process. The biotechnology, pharmaceutical and medical device industries are highly competitive. There are many pharmaceutical companies, biotechnology companies, medical device companies, public and private universities and research organizations actively engaged in the research and development of products that may be similar to our approved product or our product candidates. We are aware of several companies currently developing and selling NO therapies for various indications such as hypoxic respiratory failure (HRF). For example, Mallinckrodt commercializes INOMAX® (nitric oxide) for inhalation, which is approved for use to treat newborns suffering from HRF-PPHN in the U.S., Canada, Australia, Mexico and Japan. Linde Group markets a generic version of the Mallinckrodt offering with their delivery system called NOxBOX®. The Linde Group has marketing rights to INOMAX®in Europe. Air Liquide sells a similar product in Europe, called KINOX™, together with their delivery platform called SoKINOX™, for the treatment of pulmonary hypertension of the newborn. In Europe, EKU, International Biomedical, Cahouet and ITC each have a device that delivers nitric oxide. Bellerophon Therapeutics is developing an NO delivery system for patients with chronic pulmonary diseases such as COPD, PH-sarcoidosis, or fibrotic interstitial lung disease. VERO Biotech LLC (formerly known as Geno LLC) received FDA approval for their delivery system GENOSYL DS for HRF associated with PPHN in 2019 and received FDA approval for a third generation of that delivery system in 2023. In addition, other companies may be developing inhaled NO delivery systems at various concentrations. Novan Inc. has recently received approval for a nitric oxide-based prescription treatment called berdazimer for molluscum, a contagious skin infection. SaNOtize has an NO nasal spray that has received approval in India, Israel, and eight other countries for preventing COVID-19 after exposure. Third Pole has reported the development of an NO generator and delivery system, but we are not aware of any display of any product at any medical/scientific conference in recent years. Our patents surrounding LungFit®have priority date over those of Third Pole.]

We require a supply of LungFit® PH for sale in the United States, and we will require a supply of LungFit® PH for sale in international markets if we obtain certification or marketing approvals outside of the United States. We currently rely, and expect to continue to rely, on sole source third party manufacturers to produce starting materials, substance, and final product, and to package and label LungFit® PH and our product candidates. While we have identified and expect to qualify and engage back-up third party manufacturers as additional or alternative suppliers for the commercial supply of LungFit®PH, we currently do not have such arrangements in place. Moreover, some of these alternative manufacturers will have to be approved by the FDA before we can use them for manufacturing LungFit® PH. It is also possible that supplies of materials that cannot be second-sourced can be managed with inventory planning. There can be no assurance, however, that failure of any of our original sole source third-party manufacturers to meet our commercial demands for LungFit® PH in a timely manner, or our failure to engage qualified additional or back-up suppliers for the commercial supply of LungFit® PH, would not have a material adverse effect on commercialization of LungFit® and our business.
