MediWound Ltd. was incorporated in Israel in January 2000. The Company which is located in Yavne, Israel (The "Company" or "MediWound"), is a biopharmaceutical company that develops, manufactures and commercializes novel, cost effective, bio-therapeutic, non-surgical solutions for tissue repair and regeneration. The Company’s strategy leverages its breakthrough enzymatic technology platform into diversified portfolio of biotherapeutics across multiple indications to pioneer solutions for unmet medical needs. The Company’s current portfolio is focused on next-generation protein-based therapies for burn care, wound care and tissue repair.
The Company's first innovative biopharmaceutical product, Nexobrid, has received in December 2022, an approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) and marketing approval in each country of India, Switzerland and Japan. In addition, it has a marketing authorization from the European Medicines Agency (“EMA”) and regulatory agencies in other international markets for removal of dead or damaged tissue, known as eschar, in adults with deep partial and/or full-thickness thermal burns.
The Company commercializes Nexobrid globally through multiple sales channels.
The Company sells Nexobrid to burn centers in the European Union, United Kingdom and Israel, primarily through its commercial organizations.
The Company has established local distribution channels in multiple international markets, including Asia Pacific, EMEA, CEE and LATAM, which local distributors are also responsible for obtaining local marketing authorization within the relevant territories.
In the United States, the Company entered into an exclusive license and supply agreements with Vericel Corporation (“Vericel”) to commercialize Nexobrid in North America. On September 21, 2023, the Company announced the U.S. commercial availability of Nexobrid for the removal of eschar in adults with deep partial and/or full-thickness thermal burns.
In August 2024, the Company announced that the FDA has approved a pediatric indication for NexoBrid allowing for eschar removal in pediatric patients aged newborn through eighteen with deep partial and/or full-thickness thermal burns. With this FDA approval, NexoBrid is now authorized for use in the U.S. for all age groups, aligning with its approvals in the European Union and Japan.
The Company’s second investigational next-generation enzymatic therapy product, EscharEx, a topical biological drug being developed for debridement of chronic and other hard-to-heal wounds.
In February 2025, the Company announced the initiation of VALUE, a global, pivotal Phase III trial evaluating EscharEx for the treatment of venous leg ulcers (VLUs).
On June 13, 2025, Israel launched Operation “Rising Lion”, a direct military campaign targeting Iranian nuclear and military infrastructure in response to escalating threats posed by Iran’s long-range missile deployment and intelligence reports indicating imminent coordinated attacks. The United States joined Israel in this military action. A ceasefire between Israel and Iran was declared by the United States on June 24, 2025. Currently, activities in Israel remain largely unaffected. During the period ended June 30, 2025, the impact on the company’s results of operations and financial condition was immaterial.
In September 2015, the Company was awarded BARDA Contract for treatment of thermal burn injuries. This contract was amended multiple times to extend its term until September 2024 and its total value, up to a total amount of $175,000 as of the end of 2023. On May 11, 2024, the company signed an extension to the contracts with BARDA until September 2025.
As of June 30, 2025, the Company has recognized approximately $98,242 in total funding from BARDA under the first contract, and an additional $16,500 for procurement of Nexobrid for U.S. emergency preparedness, which were recorded at the net amount of approximately $10,500 following the split of gross profit agreement with Vericel for the initial BARDA procurement.
On February 17, 2022, the Company was entered into a contract with the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD), through the Medical Technology Enterprise Consortium (MTEC), to develop Nexobrid as a non-surgical solution for field-care burn treatment for the U.S. Army. The contract provides funding up to $2,727.
During 2023, the DoD through MTEC awarded the Company additional funding of $9,117 in addition, the company was awarded directly through MTEC funding of $1,190, to advance the development of a new temperature stable formulation of Nexobrid. In May 2024 the Company was awarded additional funding of $1,557 from the DoD through MTEC. In April 2025 the Company was awarded additional funding of $937 from the DoD through MTEC. The total funding from the DoD and MTEC is $15,528.
The Company believes that its existing cash and cash equivalents, and bank deposits of $32.9 million as of June 30, 2025, will be sufficient to fund its operations and capital expenditure for at least twelve months from the date of issuance of these consolidated financial statements.
