BrainStorm Cell Therapeutics Announces Full Year 2025 Financial Results and Provides Corporate Update

NurOwn (MSC-NTF) for ALS

•  Company continues to execute on operational, clinical and manufacturing activities to support the Phase 3b ENDURANCE study of NurOwn. The planned study, pending funding, is expected to enroll approximately 200 participants at leading ALS centers and is designed as a two-part trial consisting of a 24-week randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled portion (Part A), followed by a 24-week open-label extension (Part B) to further assess long-term safety and durability of effect. The primary efficacy endpoint for Part A will be change from baseline to Week 24 on the ALSFRS-R. If successful, the Company believes these data could support a potential BLA submission. Further trial details are posted on www.ClinicalTrials.gov,   ID NCT06973629.

• A Citizen Petition was filed with the FDA by representatives of the ALS community. The petition requests a renewed regulatory review of the data supporting NurOwn. BrainStorm acknowledges the petition as a constructive development that underscores the continued interest in NurOwn's potential therapeutic value. The Company did not participate in the drafting or submission of this petition.
• In the Expanded Access Program (EAP), 50% of patients (5/10) remain alive according to publicly available data. Estimated mean survival has reached approximately 84 months. At the time of the Citizen Petition filing (July 2025), all five surviving patients were tracheostomy-free, as documented in the petition.  All 10 EAP patients exceeded 5-year survival versus ~20% historically. Notably, these patients entered into the Phase 3 trial  with higher baseline function (mean ALSFRS-R of approximately 41), reinforcing the strategic focus of the Phase 3b trial on earlier-stage populations where the treatment effect may be most detectable.

Corporate

• In February 2026, the company entered into two strategic private placement agreements, each consisting of stock and warrants, securing a total of $2 million in funding.  Together, the company hopes these financings will reinforce a stable valuation for the company and provide the resources to support near-term operational objectives and preparatory work for the planned Phase 3b ENDURANCE trial of NurOwn.

Financial Results for the full year Ended December 31, 2025

• Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash were approximately $0.3 million as of December 31, 2025. Subsequent to year-end, the company secured an additional $2 million in funding through two private placements, as described above.
• Research and development expenditures, net, for the year ended December 31, 2025 were $4.2 million, compared to $4.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2024.
• General and administrative expenses for the twelve months ended December 31, 2025, and 2024 were approximately $5.8 million and $7.0 million, respectively.
• Net loss for the twelve months ended December 31, 2025, was approximately $10.3 million, as compared to a net loss of approximately $11.6 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024.
• Net loss per share for the twelve months ended December 31, 2025, and 2024 was $1.11 and $2.31, respectively.

About NurOwn®       

The NurOwn® technology platform (autologous MSC-NTF cells) represents a promising investigational therapeutic approach to targeting disease pathways important in neurodegenerative disorders. MSC-NTF cells are produced from autologous, bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) that have been expanded and differentiated ex vivo. MSCs are converted into MSC-NTF cells by growing them under patented conditions that induce the cells to secrete high levels of neurotrophic factors (NTFs). Autologous MSC-NTF cells are designed to effectively deliver multiple NTFs and immunomodulatory cytokines directly to the site of damage to elicit a desired biological effect and ultimately slow or stabilize disease progression.

About BrainStorm Cell Therapeutics Inc.             
BrainStorm Cell Therapeutics Inc. (OTCQB: BCLI) is a leading developer of autologous adult stem cell therapies for debilitating neurodegenerative diseases. The company's proprietary NurOwn® platform uses autologous mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to produce neurotrophic factor-secreting cells (MSC-NTF cells), designed to deliver targeted biological signals that modulate neuroinflammation and promote neuroprotection.           

NurOwn® is BrainStorm's lead investigational therapy for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and has received Orphan Drug designation from both the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the European Medicines Agency (EMA). A Phase 3 trial in ALS (NCT03280056) has been completed, and a second Phase 3b trial is set to launch under a Special Protocol Assessment (SPA) agreement with the FDA. The NurOwn clinical program has generated valuable insights into ALS disease biology, including pharmacogenomic response associated with the UNC13A genotype, biomarker data collected at seven longitudinal time points, and a comprehensive analysis of the "Floor Effect" — a critical challenge in measuring clinical outcomes in advanced ALS. BrainStorm has published its findings in multiple peer-reviewed journals. In addition to ALS, BrainStorm has completed a Phase 2 open-label multicenter trial (NCT03799718) of MSC-NTF cells in progressive multiple sclerosis (MS), supported by a grant from the National MS Society. BrainStorm is also advancing a proprietary, allogeneic exosome-based platform designed to deliver therapeutic proteins and nucleic acids. The company recently received a Notice of Allowance from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office for a foundational patent covering its exosome technology, further strengthening BrainStorm's growing IP portfolio in this emerging area of regenerative medicine.
