Conference Call Scheduled for Today at 8:30 AM ET
PETACH TIKVA, Israel, August 12, 2026 - PolyPid Ltd. (Nasdaq: PYPD) (“PolyPid” or the “Company”), an innovative biopharmaceutical company dedicated to improving patient outcomes by elevating treatment effectiveness, right where care begins, today provided a corporate update and reported financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026.
Recent Corporate Highlights:
Completed NDA Submission for D-PLEX₁₀₀ and Received FDA Acceptance with Priority Review:
| ● | Completed its New Drug Application (“NDA”) submission to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) for D-PLEX₁₀₀ for the prevention of surgical site infections (“SSIs”) in patients undergoing abdominal colorectal surgery, supported by positive results from the pivotal Phase 3 SHIELD II trial, which met its primary endpoint and all key secondary endpoints and demonstrated a 60% relative risk reduction in SSIs compared to standard of care (p=0.0013). |
| ● | Subsequent to quarter end, on July 27, 2026, the FDA accepted D-PLEX₁₀₀ NDA submission and granted Priority Review, with a Prescription Drug User Fee Act (“PDUFA”) goal date of November 28, 2026, approximately one quarter ahead of the Company’s previously communicated first quarter 2027 guidance. The FDA did not identify any filing review issues in its acceptance communications. |
Exclusive U.S. and Canada Commercialization Partnership with Azurity Pharmaceuticals:
| ● | Following the end of the quarter, on July 17, 2026, PolyPid entered into a commercial partnership agreement with Azurity Pharmaceuticals (“Azurity”), a privately held global specialty pharmaceutical company with a first-in-class commercial model, deep experience in specialty and hospital-based therapies with more than 50 medicines across 10 therapeutic areas. Azurity has an experienced commercial launch and execution team launching more than one product each year on average in the last several years. |
| ● | Following the FDA’s July 27, 2026 NDA acceptance, PolyPid has achieved the milestones required for the $30 million in upfront and near-term milestone payments from Azurity. |
| ● | Under the partnership, PolyPid is eligible to receive up to approximately $320 million in total upfront and milestone payments, inclusive of the $30 million confirmed to date, structured across a defined series of regulatory, launch, and sales milestones aligned with the anticipated U.S. and Canada commercialization of D-PLEX₁₀₀. |
| ● | In addition to and separate from the milestone payments, PolyPid is entitled to tiered royalties from mid-teen to mid-twenties percentages on sales in the U.S. and Canada. Additionally, PolyPid will manufacture and supply D-PLEX₁₀₀ to Azurity for an agreed transfer price, further strengthening the Company’s expected revenues from product sales. |
| ● | As part of the collaboration, Azurity will fund clinical development to support potential label expansion of D-PLEX₁₀₀ in the U.S. and Canada to additional SSI indications beyond abdominal surgery, potentially expanding the future addressable market. |
| ● | PolyPid retains commercial rights outside the United States and Canada, manufacturing rights worldwide, and full ownership of its Kynatrix™ technology and associated pipeline. |
Advancing EU Regulatory Submission:
| · | PolyPid remains on track for the previously announced third quarter 2026 submission of its Marketing Authorization Application (“MAA”) to the European Medicines Agency (“EMA”) for D-PLEX₁₀₀ under the Centralized Procedure on the basis of therapeutic innovation. During the second quarter of 2026, the Company held productive and positive meetings with the EMA Rapporteur and Co-Rapporteur, aligning on the timeline and requirements for the planned MAA submission. |
Advancing Kynatrix™ Pipeline Beyond D-PLEX₁₀₀:
| · | Beyond D-PLEX₁₀₀, PolyPid continues to advance its proprietary Kynatrix™ technology through additional pipeline programs, including its long-acting metabolic program and additional infection opportunities beyond prevention. These programs are being designed to leverage the Company’s established Kynatrix™ technology capabilities, existing clinical and chemistry, manufacturing and controls (“CMC”) foundation, and known active pharmaceutical ingredient safety profile. |
Upcoming Expected Milestones:
| ● | PDUFA goal date for the D-PLEX₁₀₀ NDA of November 28, 2026. |
| ● | MAA submission to the EMA for D-PLEX₁₀₀ under the Centralized Procedure in the third quarter of 2026. |
| ● | Potential U.S. commercial launch of D-PLEX₁₀₀ in early 2027. |

“The second quarter of 2026 and the first few weeks of the third quarter completed PolyPid’s transition into a commercial-stage company, with the acceptance by the FDA with Priority Review of our NDA submission for D-PLEX₁₀₀, with no filing review issues and a PDUFA goal date meaningfully ahead of the guidance we have previously communicated,” said Dikla Czaczkes Akselbrad, Chief Executive Officer of PolyPid. “In parallel, the U.S. and Canada commercial partnership we entered into in July, together with the immediate $30 million from the partnership, places PolyPid in potentially the strongest financial position in the Company’s history, with no immediate financing needs. With the NDA review process on track, our substantially strengthened financial position, and our U.S. and Canada commercial partnership with Azurity, we believe PolyPid is well positioned to advance D-PLEX₁₀₀ for abdominal colorectal surgery and, over time, additional broader surgical indications.”
Financial Results for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2026
| ● | Research and development expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2026, were $6.1 million, compared to $6.2 million in the same three-month period of 2025. Research and development activity in the second quarter of 2026 primarily reflects ongoing NDA-related activities and continued commercial readiness preparation. |
| ● | General and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2026, were $1.3 million, compared to $2.5 million for the same period of 2025. The decrease was primarily due to the decrease of non-cash expenses related to performance-based options (“PSUs”) following the positive Phase 3 SHIELD II topline results, which triggered the vesting of those PSUs. |
| ● | Marketing and business development expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2026, were $0.5 million, compared to $0.7 million for the same period of 2025. |
| ● | For the three months ended June 30, 2026, the Company had a net loss of $7.8 million, or $(0.35) per share, compared to a net loss of $10.0 million, or $(0.78) per share, in the three-month period ended June 30, 2025. |
Financial Results for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2026
| ● | Research and development expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2026, were $11.9 million, compared to $12.3 million in the same six-month period of 2025. The decrease primarily reflects the completion of the SHIELD II Phase 3 trial and the Company’s transition toward regulatory submission and commercial readiness activities. |
| ● | General and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2026, were $2.9 million, compared to $3.7 million for the same period of 2025. The decrease was primarily due to the decrease of non-cash PSU vesting expenses. |
| ● | Marketing and business development expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2026, were $0.9 million, compared to $1.0 million for the same period of 2025. |
| ● | For the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company had a net loss of $15.6 million, or $(0.70) per share, compared to a net loss of $18.2 million, or $(1.48) per share, in the six-month period ended June 30, 2025. |

Balance Sheet Highlights
| ● | As of June 30, 2026, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $6.6 million, compared to cash, cash equivalents and short-term deposits of $12.9 million on December 31, 2025, not including $30 million in upfront and near-term milestone payments from Azurity, substantially strengthening the Company’s balance sheet as it approaches the November 28, 2026 PDUFA goal date and prepares for a potential U.S. commercial launch of D-PLEX₁₀₀ in early 2027. |
| ● | The Company believes that its current cash position, together with its expected proceeds from its recently announced commercialization agreement, as well as future potential proceeds, will be sufficient to fund operations into 2028 and through several significant upcoming potential milestones. |
