#### INTRODUCTION
We are a clinical-stage, oncology-focused biotechnology company engaged in the discovery and development of proprietary treatments for KRAS-driven cancers. The KRAS gene is an oncogene that is involved in the regulation of cell division as a result of its ability to relay external signals into the cell. Our approach targets a significant unmet medical need, as treatment innovation for KRAS-driven cancers has historically lagged despite KRAS being one of the most common oncogenic drivers across solid tumors. Based on our research of refractory solid tumor cancers, we are actively developing a platform focused on the silencing of the KRAS oncogene using RNA-interference therapeutics. Our lead product candidate, SIL204, consists of locally administered small interfering RNAs, or siRNA, in a solution as a first-line treatment of locally advanced pancreatic cancer patients, or LAPC, in combination with standard-of-care chemotherapy, and uses an integrated treatment approach that combines intratumoral and systemic administration.

We were formed through a business combination that was completed on August 15, 2024, when Silexion Therapeutics Corp (then known as Biomotion Sciences) consummated previously-announced transactions with Silexion Therapeutics Ltd. and Moringa Acquisition Corp. Following the business combination, we changed our name to "Silexion Therapeutics Corp" and our ordinary shares and warrants commenced trading on the Nasdaq Global Market (and were subsequently transferred to the Nasdaq Capital Market, where they currently trade) under the symbols "SLXN" and "SLXNW", respectively.

------

The forward-looking statements contained in this Annual Report are based on our current expectations, forecasts and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effects on us. There can be no assurance that future developments affecting us will be those that we have anticipated. These forward-looking statements involve a number of risks and uncertainties, some of which are beyond our control, and are based on certain assumptions, which, if turning out to be incorrect, may cause actual results or performance to be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the following factors:

● we are a development-stage company and have a limited operating history on which to assess our business;

● we have never generated any revenue from product sales and may never be profitable;

● we will need to raise substantial additional funding, including via exercise of our outstanding warrants, which can be done without our shareholders' further approval, and which may not be available on acceptable terms, or at all, and which will cause significant dilution to our shareholders;

● we intend to effect the conversion of the remaining outstanding principal amount of the A&R Sponsor Promissory Note in connection with our financing activities, which we can do without shareholder approval and which could cause dilution to our existing shareholders and depress the market price of our ordinary shares;

● the approach we are taking to discover and develop novel RNAi therapeutics is unproven for oncology and may never lead to marketable products;

● we do not have experience producing our product candidates at commercial levels, currently have no marketing and sales organization, have an uncertain market receptiveness to our product candidates, and are uncertain as to whether there will be insurance coverage and reimbursement for our potential products;

● we may be unable to attract, develop and/or retain our key personnel or additional employees required for our development and future success;

● we rely on third parties (including CROs and contract manufacturers) whose performance is largely beyond our control; and

● those additional factors described in "*Item 1A. Risk Factors*" below.

Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of our assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary in material respects from those projected in these forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities laws.

#### Summary of Risk Factors
Investing in our securities involves risks. You should carefully consider the risks described in "*Item 1A. Risk Factors*" before making a decision to invest in our securities. If any of these risks is actualized, our business, financial condition and results of operations would likely be materially adversely affected. In such case, the trading price of our securities would likely decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment. Such risks include, but are not limited to:

● We are a development-stage company and have a limited operating history on which to assess our business. The approach we are taking to discover and develop novel RNAi therapeutics is unproven for oncology and may never lead to marketable products.

● We have never generated any revenue from product sales and may never be profitable.

iv

------

● We will need to raise substantial additional funding, which may not be available on acceptable terms, or at all, and which will cause dilution to our shareholders and may cause a decrease to the trading price of our ordinary shares.

● Our independent registered public accounting firm's report contains an explanatory paragraph that expresses substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a "going concern."

● The approach we are taking to discover and develop novel RNAi therapeutics is unproven for oncology and may never lead to marketable products.

● We are heavily dependent on the success of our product candidates, in particular, SIL204, which are in the early stages of preclinical or clinical development. We cannot give any assurance that any of our product candidates will receive regulatory approval, which is necessary before they can be commercialized.

● The regulatory approval processes of the FDA and comparable foreign authorities are lengthy, time consuming, and inherently unpredictable. If we are ultimately unable to obtain regulatory approval for our product candidates, our business will be substantially harmed.

● Clinical drug development involves a lengthy and expensive process with an uncertain outcome, and results of preclinical activity or earlier studies may not be predictive of future study results.

● We may find it difficult to enroll patients in our clinical studies, which could delay or prevent clinical studies of our product candidates.

● Our product candidates and the administration of our product candidates may cause undesirable side effects or have other properties that could delay or prevent their regulatory approval, limit the commercial profile of an approved label, or result in significant negative consequences following marketing approval, if any.

● Even if we obtain regulatory approval for a product candidate, our products will remain subject to regulatory scrutiny.

● We are subject to a multitude of manufacturing risks, any of which could substantially increase our costs and limit supply of our product candidates.

● We rely on third parties to conduct our preclinical and clinical studies, and to manufacture the raw materials and products that we use to create our product candidates and to supply us with the medical devices used to administer such products, which entails regulatory and trade secrets-related risks.

● We do not have experience producing our product candidates at commercial levels, currently have no marketing and sales organization, have an uncertain market receptiveness to our product candidates, and are uncertain as to whether there will be insurance coverage and reimbursement for our potential products.

● We face intense competition and rapid technological change and the possibility that our competitors may develop therapies that are similar, more advanced, or more effective than ours, which may adversely affect our financial condition and our ability to successfully commercialize our product candidates.

● If we are unable to obtain and maintain effective patent rights for our product candidates or any future product candidates, we may not be able to compete effectively in our markets.

● Third-party claims of intellectual property infringement may prevent or delay our development and commercialization efforts.

v

------

● We may be unable to attract, develop and/or retain our key personnel or additional employees required for our development and future success.

● Conditions in the Middle East and in Israel may harm our operations.

● If we fail to maintain compliance with Nasdaq's continued listing requirements, our securities may be delisted from the Nasdaq Capital Market.

● The price of our ordinary shares and our warrants may be volatile.

● A substantial number of our ordinary shares may be issued pursuant to the ATM and/or the conversion terms of the A&R Sponsor Promissory Note, which could cause (i) substantial dilution and (ii) the market price of our ordinary shares to decline.

● We have no current plans to pay cash dividends on our ordinary shares for the foreseeable future.

● To the extent we need to effect an additional reverse share split, our ordinary shares may experience extreme price volatility in its aftermath.

#### PART I

#### Item 1 . Business.
*Unless the context otherwise requires, in this "Business" section, the terms "we," "us" and "our" generally refer to: (i) for the period following the Closing of the Business Combination on August 15, 2024, Silexion Therapeutics Corp (formerly known as Biomotion Sciences), a Cayman Islands exempted company ("Silexion") and its consolidated subsidiaries, including Silexion Therapeutics Ltd., an Israeli company ("Silexion Israel"), through which our business is primarily conducted, and, (ii) with respect to all periods prior to and through the Closing of the Business Combination, Silexion Israel and its subsidiaries.*

#### Business Overview
We are a clinical-stage, oncology-focused biotechnology company engaged in the discovery and development of proprietary treatments for cancers driven by mutations in the mutations in the Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog ("**KRAS**"). The KRAS gene, when mutated, plays a central role in many cancer types, such as pancreatic, colorectal and lung, and is therefore considered to be an oncogene. This oncogene instructs cells to make the corresponding KRAS protein which has a controlling function in cell growth signaling in the cancer cells. While multiple pharmaceutical companies are pursuing strategies to inhibit or tag the KRAS protein for degradation and thereby limit its downstream signaling, our approach is differentiated by targeting the root cause of oncogenic signaling— we silence the KRAS oncogene itself, preventing the production of the oncogenic protein.

Our proprietary technology is designed to prompt tumor cells to degrade the messenger RNA (mRNA) that bridges the oncogene and the cellular protein synthesis machinery, utilizing small interfering RNA (siRNA) constructs that are chemically modified to enhance stability and cellular uptake while maintaining biological activity that interferes with the mRNA function. Our lead product candidate, SIL204, is a second-generation siRNA engineered to suppress the production' of mutated KRAS proteins. In pancreatic cancer, approximately 92% of patients have this mutated oncogene.

To address both localized and systemic disease, as well as the tumor's dense desmoplastic stroma, which limits the effectiveness of current treatments, our novel delivery approach, which we refer to as an Integrated Treatment Regimen, involves administering SIL204 both directly into the tumor and systemically via subcutaneous injection, in combination with standard-of-care chemotherapy. In a previous Phase 2 clinical trial with our first-generation siRNA, siG12D-LODER (which we also refer to as Loder), the combination of siRNA and standard-of-care chemotherapy demonstrated a trend for an overall survival benefit of 9.3 months compared to standard-of-care chemotherapy alone. Building on preclinical advancements and regimen optimization, we believe SIL204 has the potential to further improve clinical outcomes, by improving uptake into tumor cells, enhancing stability, and broadening the scope of its silencing activity.

------

We are currently focused on treatment of non-resectable locally advanced pancreatic cancer (LAPC) patients which bear a KRAS mutation. LAPC represents the least treatable form of localized pancreatic cancer where the primary tumors are too large or in a position which precludes being able to be surgically removed, and where metastases have not been detected. Overall LAPC represent about 30% of pancreatic cancer (PC) and the KRAS G12D and KRAS G12V mutations (KRAS G12D/V) represent about 68% of PC. Our first indication is focusing on LAPC patients bearing KRAS G12D/V which represents about 20% of all PC patients. We are also exploring the effectiveness of our treatment (SIL204-SL) for LAPC with any KRAS mutations which represents almost a third of PC. With our integrated treatment regimen (SIL204-IR) we target the primary tumor and the micro metastases which occur relatively early in the disease stage.

During 2025, we continued to advance operational readiness, including the onboarding of external vendors, with the initiation of clinical studies contingent upon obtaining regulatory clearance. We held a meeting with the Federal Institute for Drugs and Medical Devices in Germany (BfArM) to discuss the planned design of the Phase 2/3 trial at which BfArM agreed, in principle, to the design. In preparation for our initial clinical study with SIL204, we furthermore conducted toxicology studies of SIL204 in 2025, completing two-species toxicology studies that confirmed no systemic organ toxicity. In the fourth quarter of 2025, we submitted an application to the Israeli Ministry of Health for commencing the adaptive Phase 2/3 trial with a safety run-in at several locations in Israel.

In the first quarter of 2026, we will submit to BfArM an application to conduct clinical studies in Germany. We are expecting to initiate the first part of our Phase 2/3 clinical studies in the second quarter of 2026. We expect to submit applications for trials in additional European Union countries early in 2027, and to submit an investigational new drug application (IND) to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in Q1, 2027. The initial stage of our clinical trials will involve a safety run-in that will evaluate our treatment approach in combination with standard of care (SoC) chemotherapy in approximately 18 patients, assessing safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy signals. Subject to our successful completion of that stage, we plan to expand into a second stage of the Phase 2/3 clinical trial which would include a randomized study of approximately 166 patients prior to an interim analysis for sample size adjustment and futility as recommended by the independent DSMB as well as the DSMB recommendation for the final selected subcutaneous dose to be administered in the last segment of the trial (Phase 3 segment).

#### Our Market Opportunity
Activating mutations in KRAS are among the most prevalent oncogenic driver mutations in human cancers. In a recent study of over 400,000 patients with various cancer type malignancies, 23% of adult pan-cancer samples had KRAS alterations, 88% of which were mutations, most commonly G12D, G12V, G12C, G13D,G12R and Q61H, making the KRAS target a sought-out target in for many cancers ("Comprehensive pan-cancer genomic landscape of KRAS altered cancers and real-world outcomes in solid tumors", by Jessica K. Lee, etc., NPJ Precision Oncology 2022; 6: 91 analysis). In addition, the study found that various cancers have an amplification of the non-mutated KRAS protein. Tumor types with a high prevalence of KRAS mutations included pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) (92%), colorectal cancer (CRC) (49%), and non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) (35%). These three cancers represent about 70% of the KRAS mutant pan-tumor population studied.

Studies have shown that pancreatic cancer patients have short survival rates compared to other cancer types (see, for example, "Prognosis and survival analysis of patients with pancreatic cancer: retrospective experience of a single institution", by Qi Li and others, World Journal of Surgical Oncology, 2022; 20:11). There are four basic forms of pancreatic cancer: Resectable, those where a surgeon can remove a tumor; Borderline Resectable (BRPC) where the tumor is not currently permissible for surgery but prior treatment with chemotherapy or radiation could in some cases allow for surgical removal; LAPC where the tumor has surrounded a significant part of a major artery or vein and is not surgically removable; and Metastatic where the cancerous tumor has spread to other organs. Of the forms of pancreatic cancer that are localized (those which have not yet been observed to spread), the largest and most life threatening is LAPC, which constitutes approximately 30% of pancreatic cancers ("Locally Advanced Pancreatic Cancer: A Review of Local Ablative Therapies", by Alette Ruarus and others, Cancers BaseI, January 2018; 10(1):16).

Below is a curve of overall survival in LAPC patients:

KRAS mutations across their various forms are responsible for approximately 92% of all pancreatic cancers, of which the KRAS G12D and KRAS12V mutations account for over 70% of the cases traced to KRAS mutations (Bailey, P. *et al.* Genomic analyses identify molecular subtypes of pancreatic cancer. *Nature* 531(7592), 47 - 52. *https://doi.org/10.1038/nature16965* (2016) (Art. No. 7592)). Unfortunately, those with LAPC have a short survival time, about 17 months, and constitute about 30% of the total pancreatic cancer population ("Survival in Locally Advanced Pancreatic Cancer After Neoadjuvant Therapy and Surgical Resection", by Georgio Gemenetzis, MD, and others, Annals of Surgery. 270 (2):1, March 2018). Among those patients with KRAS mutations, those with the mutation type G12D and G12V show the shortest OS among the G12x mutation type.

Distribution of KRAS Mutations in Pancreatic Cancer

#### Our Technology
Our research is focused on the development of a platform of therapeutics that is designed to silence the KRAS oncogene using small interfering RNA, or siRNA. This function is called interference RNA (RNAi). When the RNAi is double stranded of 19-25 nucleotides (NTs), in length, it is referred to as siRNA. This class of siRNA therapeutics exert their effect by inducing the enzymatic breakdown of the messenger (mRNA) of a targeted gene inhibiting the process called translation, which turns the message (mRNA) into a protein. The general mechanism for silencing the oncogene is actually an evolutionary process developed by cells for translation regulation or to protect against viruses.

We believe our approach also builds upon the validation of our target KRAS mutations as a target for cancers, as seen with the two small molecule KRAS inhibitors currently on the market for non-small cell lung cancer, and the validation of siRNA technology, as it is currently on the market for eight non-oncological indications. None of these agents is appropriate for our intended primary indication, but we believe they do support our premises regarding target (KRAS) and basic technology (siRNA) for use in the oncological area. A key distinction between our technology and the existing inhibitors of KRAS is that our siRNA technology prevents the production of the KRAS protein, compared to the inhibitors which inhibit the KRAS protein after it is functioning. Thus, our approach stops the oncogenic process at an earlier level and brings us closer to stopping this important oncological process. Our approach may also have implications for reducing limiting factors of the marketed KRAS inhibitors.

The specific mechanism of this silencing activity is depicted in the figure below. siRNAs, usually 19-25 NTs, enter the cell as a double-standard complex. Once in the inner cell matrix, they bind to an RNA-induced silencing complex of enzymes (RISC), which splits the siRNA into two single RNA strands referred to as the passenger (sense) strand and the guide (antisense) strand. It is the antisense which is the active part. The single guide strand has complementary binding to the target mRNA and thereby acts as an inducing guide for other enzymes in the RISC complex to bind and induce specific cleavage of the now double stranded target mRNA. As the siRNA guide strand is designed to be complementary to the RNA message around the site of the mutation of the gene to be silenced, in our case the mutated KRAS oncogene, once the message (mRNA) is destroyed, the oncogene is silenced. As the sense-strand of the siRNA is designed to be specific for the targeted KRAS, there is a specificity to the silencing of this driver of cancer.

![image5.jpg](image5.jpg)

Our first-generation siRNA product candidate, siG12D, is an extended-release formulation of siRNA. While originally designed to combat the KRAS G12D mutation in patients with LAPC, siG12D was shown to have silencing activity in other KRAS mutations including G12V as well as to a lesser degree in G12C and G12R. The product candidate is comprised of the anti-KRAS(G12D) siRNA drug substance (siG12D), formulated in a biodegradable polymeric matrix (PLGA) as solid rods in order to obtain an extended-release profile. To overcome the difficulties of a systemic drug to enter the pancreatic tumor environment and to obtain a sufficiently high level of siRNA in the pancreatic cell without inducing unnecessary side effects, the siRNA is directly delivered intratumorally using a standard ultrasound guided endoscopy (EUS). We refer to this first generation product formulation as siG12D-LODER or Loder. Loder has undergone extensive pre-clinical testing as well as Phase 1 and 2s clinical trials.

Our second-generation siRNA product candidate, SIL204, is an optimized form of the first-generation Loder. in a solution. While pre-clinical testing of SIL204 has shown silencing activity of KRAS mutations including G12D, G12V, G12C, G12R, Q61H and G13D in varying degrees, we are planning to concentrate on its ability to inhibit KRAS G12D and KRAS G12V mutations in patients with LAPC. The second-generation siRNA drug substance aims to provide improved uptake into tumor cells by introducing a hydrophobic tail that enhances movement into the cells. Additionally, second-generation siRNA drug substances include modified nucleotides in the siRNA that enhance stability and corresponding half-life. Administration is also intratumorally via ultrasound guided endoscopy (EUS), of the type typically used for pancreatic biopsies to diagnose pancreatic cancer and can be done by a typical gastrointestinal endoscopist, but can be administered via a smaller, more flexible needle.

As discussed further below, we plan to conduct a Phase 2/3 clinical trial of SIL204 targeting KRAS G12D and G12V mutations. Testing against other oncogenic KRAS-mutations is also planned.

We believe the optimization of our siRNA and moving to the second generation product allows for more of a personalized medicine approach to the dosing, allowing the siRNA dose to be adjusted to the tumor size. The potential higher concentration of the siRNA solution, smaller, more flexible needle, and substantially more stable siRNA is expected to allow for treatment of a broader range of tumor sizes and locations, than with Loder, without requiring additional intratumoral administrations.

#### Clinical Studies

#### Phase 2 Clinical Study with First Generation siRNA Product, siG12DLoder
From 2018 to 2023, we conducted a prospective, multi-center, Phase II, open label study to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of siG12D-LODER in two separate cohorts across five sites in Israel and four in the U.S., which followed upon a Phase 1 clinical study that had been conducted with siG12D-LODER in Israel. siG12D LODER serves as a prototype for SIL204.

Cohort 1 was a randomized and controlled two-arm study of 37 subjects with unresectable LAPC to assess the efficacy, safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of siG12D-LODER when used in combination with standard chemotherapy treatment (gemcitabine + nab-Paclitaxel) compared to gemcitabine + nab-Paclitaxel alone in subjects. Cohort 2 was a single arm study of 22 subjects with unresectable and borderline resectable LAPC to assess the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of siG12D-LODER in combination with standard of care chemotherapy treatment (gemcitabine + nab-paclitaxel or FOLFIRINOX (FFX) or modified FOLFIRINOX (mFFX)). The patients' KRAS mutation was not an inclusion/exclusion criteria for the study and all patients meeting the other inclusion/exclusion criteria were recruited to the trial, regardless of whether they had a KRAS mutation or which specific mutation they had. All patients were in the safety cohort.

The KRAS mutation status was determined from all retained samples that were able to be obtained. This included 31 patients (21 of whom were Loder treated) in the table below:

---

| V | 3/10 | 8/12 | 67 | 5/9 | 52(16/31) |

---

A total of up to eight Loders (2.8 mg siRNA/Loder) were inserted into the pancreatic tumor per single administration. Insertion was done using EUS. The trial consisted of a screening period (28 days), a treatment phase (12-week Loder treatment cycles at investigator's discretion with concomitant chemotherapy treatment cycles) and a follow-up phase (up to six months until end of study which is defined as death, withdrawn consent or lost to follow-up). For efficacy, the primary endpoint in the randomized section of the trial (Cohort 1) was overall survival (OS), defined as the time that passed from study entry (screening visit) until death from any cause. For Cohort 2, the primary endpoint was the overall response rate (ORR) by end of treatment; ORR was defined as the proportion of subjects with best overall confirmed response (BOCR) of either a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR). Concerning the secondary endpoint of safety, the endpoints were incidence of adverse events (AEs), and serious adverse events (SAEs) overall, by severity, by relationship to each study intervention, and those that led to discontinuation of study interventions. Other secondary endpoints included ORR for Cohort 1, progression free survival, time to metastatis, time to response, duration of response and rate of disease control.

Overall, a total of 59 subjects with LAPC were enrolled in the study, 38 were treated with Loder and 48 subjects overall (81.3%) completed the study. Randomization to either control treatment of standard of care chemotherapy (SoC) or active treatment of SoC plus siG12D-Loder was only in Cohort 1. In this cohort 15/19 (78.9%) completed the active treatment (siG12D-Loder) arm and 11/18 (61.1%) completed the standard of care arm. In Cohort 2 which only had an active treatment arm, 21/22 (95.5%) completed the study.

Analysis of the cohort which had a control group (Cohort 1) and where the KRAS mutation was able to be determined showed the best efficacy results with those patients harboring a KRAS G12D or KRAS G12V mutation (G12D/V). Below are the results of this subset analysis, which represents about 70% of the LAPC patients in the general population and the population which we will use for the primary endpoint in our next trial with SIL204.

The Objective Response Rates (ORR), as determined by the standard RECIST v1.1 criteria, in the two cohorts were similar, with 61-64% of the KRASG12D/V patients responding positively

------

![image00016.jpg](image00016.jpg)

The primary endpoint for the trial was OS in the KRASG12D/V population. In the overall survival (OS) analysis of the randomized cohort (Cohort 1), the median time to death in the standard of care chemotherapy group was 13.4 months. When the treatment included the Loder, the OS was increased to 22.7 months. This represents a trend for a numerical advantage of 9.3 months. The Hazard ratio (HR)=0.59, (95% CI, 0.18, 1.96, p=0.39), which represents ~65% increase in median overall survival (OS) LODER+SoC vs. SoC. . The Loder treatment group in this analysis of KRASG12D/V was n=11 and for the Control group n=5. Despite the relatively small size, OS of the control group is consistent with that found in the literature for non-resectable-localized-PC (Gemenetzis, G. et al, 2019). Although the trial was not powered for nor reached statistical significance, the results indicate a positive trend for an improvement in OS and ORR with Loder + SOC in the KRASG12D/V mutation group.

Combining both Cohorts (1 + 2) (cohort 2 having only a single Loder + SOC treatment arm but adding it to the randomized treatment arm of Loder + SoC chemo) and comparing it to the Control group from Cohort 1 (SoC chemo) also showed an advantage for the Loder arm, but smaller than randomized Cohort 1 alone.

The endpoints of safety (secondary endpoints) were met. Loder treatment was considered to be well tolerated, with adverse events mostly related to endoscopic ultrasound procedure and seen as reversible abdominal pain. The Independent Drug Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB) Reviews did not indicate safety concerns nor safety restriction. Overall in the trial there were approximately 93 Loder cycles to 38 subjects. Each cycle had ~4 injections to tumor for ~ 372 Loder injections.

The Treatment-emergent adverse Events (TEAEs) <u>></u> 10% were as follows:

![image00019.jpg](image00019.jpg)

In Cohort 1, all subjects in the Loder treatment group reported at least one moderate or severe treatment emergent adverse event (TEAE) (18 subjects). One subject was reported with a TEAE leading to death (sepsis). This event was deemed as not related to the Loder or the EUS procedure. Of the remaining 17 subjects, one subject was reported with a life-threatening TEAE, gastrointestinal disorders (colitis). The majority of moderate and severe TEAEs reported in the Loder treatment group were attributed to gastrointestinal disorders (10), blood/lymphatic disorders (14), general disorders and administration site conditions (11), metabolism and nutrition disorders (11), and investigations (10). In the SoC treatment group, all subjects reported at least one moderate or severe TEAE (11 subjects). No subjects were reported with a TEAE leading to death. Two subjects were reported with a life- threatening TEAE. The majority of moderate and severe TEAEs reported in the SoC treatment group were attributed to gastrointestinal disorders (10), blood/lymphatic disorders (9), general disorders and administration site conditions (9), metabolism and nutrition disorders (8), and investigations (9).

In Cohort 2, all subjects in the Loder treatment group reported at least one moderate or severe TEAE (20 subjects). One subject was reported with a TEAE leading to death (gastrointestinal disorder). This event was deemed as not related to the Loder or the EUS procedure. Three subjects were reported with a life-threatening TEAE. Of the three subjects, one subject was investigation (neutrophil count decreased) and two subjects were metabolism/nutrition (hyperglycaemia, hyperkalaemia). The majority of moderate and severe TEAEs reported in the Loder treatment group were attributed to gastrointestinal disorders (13), nervous system disorder (10) and investigations (11).

These results are consistent with the good safety profiles of the marketed siRNA products which are on the market for other indications (not oncology).

Regarding pharmacokinetics, in a subset analysis, no measurable amount of Loder was detected (#### SIL204 (second generation) Pre-Clinical Studies
Studies with SIL204 in human cell line PK59 harboring a KRAS G12D mutation showed that the mRNA transcript and corresponding KRAS protein were significantly reduced

------

![image00018.jpg](image00018.jpg)

We have conducted the evaluation of SIL204 in pharmacology and pharmacokinetics (PK). The results of the extensive in vitro and in vivo nonclinical studies demonstrated the effects of SIL204 in silencing the KRAS oncogene, tumor development, and the halting of new metastases.

*Stability of SIL204*

When SIL204 was tested in human serum (ex-vivo) for 48 hours, it was found to be stable for that period, whereas siG12DLoder degraded within the first hour. When a single subcutaneous treatment of SIL204 (solution, 10mg, not formulated) was administered to Sprague Dawley rats, the SIL204 remained at substantial levels for >56 days in plasma and various tissues

![image9.jpg](image9.jpg)

*Broadness of silencing activity against various KRAS mutations*

SIL204 shows broad silencing (inhibition) of KRAS across the human KRAS mutations that are important for pancreatic, colorectal cancer, and lung cancer at sub-nanomolar concentrations, in a co-transfection model where human KRAS is transfected into mouse Hepa1-6 cells with a Dual-Glo reporter plasmid, This activity not only maintains the silencing activity of Loder but also expands its activity to additional mutations that are considered to be oncogenic.

![image00020.jpg](image00020.jpg)

SIL204 Inhibits Growth of Human Tumor Cell Lines from Various Cancers with G12x and Q61x Mutations.

Shown is the CellTiter-Glo (CTG)) assay where IC<sub>90</sub> is the concentration for 90% inhibition of tumor cell growth and IC<sub>50</sub> is the concentration to achieve 50% inhibition. These results support the above results in the mouse hepa cells transfected with human KRAS mutations and indicates that the growth of the various cells lines with different KRAS mutations from difference cancer types can be highly (>90%) inhibited as indicated by the IC90 values.

![image11.jpg](image11.jpg)

An in silico thermodynamic stability of potential binding of siRNA SIL204 antisense strand to mRNA of off-target sites (Genome/Transcriptome and regulatory miR) showed a strong binding to our intended target (mutated KRAS) and no off-target active anti-sense binding indicting both a low risk for side effects in general and specificity for the PC, CRC, NSCLC -cancer driving subgroup of RAS mutations (K(RAS)) indicating a low risk for side effects from general RAS inhibition. The analysis was evaluated by Gibb's free energy changes (ΔG) of duplex, not mismatch penalties, like BLAST, was determined using various software programs, including ThermoSearch and OMP DE (DNA Software).

The inhibition of the growth of the human tumor cell lines by SIL204 was also found to work synergistically with fluorouracil, irinotecan, and gemcitabine-containing chemotherapeutic agents. Agents of this class include folfirinox, currently considered the gold-standard for pancreatic cancer chemotherapy, and Gemzar. This is an important property for being a first-line treatment in pancreatic cancer. Growth followed in human pancreatic cell line Panc-1 (G12D), \* p<0.05, \*\*\*p<0.0005.

![image12.jpg](image12.jpg)

These results are also consistent with the clinical results where siG12DLoder + SOC improves outcomes compared to SOC chemotherapy alone.

*In vivo models of efficacy*

In H2, 2025, we completed a toxicology study package with rSIL204 sufficient to initiate our planned Phase 2/3 clinical trial. This study was conducted in two relevant species and aligned with ICH S9 guidance for oncology and confirmed by regulatory agency for initiation of Phase 2/3 clinical trial. The study:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Established safety margins of up to 11-fold over the clinical starting dose.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• SIL204 was well-tolerated in both species with no test article-related organ toxicity or mortality observed.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Adverse findings limited to non-adverse changes at local injection site, fully resolved at 1 month.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• No evidence of complement activation or immunotoxicity.

These toxicology studies confirmed that administration of SIL204 does not lead to systemic organ toxicity.

------

#### Manufacturing
We rely on and intend to continue to rely on third-party contract manufacturing organizations for drug substance and drug products for our clinical trials. We have agreements with contract manufacturers for the manufacturing of SIL204 and its formulation development for clinical development. SIL204 was manufactured for initiating the clinical trial, with the later manufacturing for the clinical trial at a commercial level manufacturing site. Our formulation has been selected and will be manufactured for initiation of the Phase 2/3 clinical trial at a site where it can be later manufactured commercially.

#### SIL204 Milestones Achieved
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• GMP API for Segment 1 manufactured, Segment 2 GMP manufacturing ongoing

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• GMP formulation selected, manufacturing in process

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Toxicology for Segment 1 completed, for Segment 2/3 later in 2026

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Scientific Advice from national European authority, with positive response

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Go ahead from ethics committee for Phase 2/3 from major oncology center

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Submitted to Israel MoH to initiate Phase 2/3 trial, waiting for response

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Submission to German MoH for Phase 2/3 trial planned 03/26

#### Future Development Plans
We plan to commence in the second quarter of 2026 prospective, randomized, controlled, multinational, multi-center, Phase 2/3, open-label trial, evaluating the efficacy, safety and tolerability of SIL204-SL Integrated Therapeutic Regimen (SIL204-IR) (various doses) in combination with Standard of Care (SoC) chemotherapy vs. SoC chemotherapy alone for the treatment of participants with locally advanced pancreatic cancer (LAPC) harboring KRAS mutation. This trial uses an adaptive design with three segments; Segment 1 as safety run-in Phase 2, Segment 2 as dose-finding (planned to be initiated early in 2027) and expanded Phase 2 and Segment 3 as confirmatory Phase 3.

The study is expected to commence at three sites in Israel, and, once approval is received from the BfArM, to be conducted in parallel in Germany, and will later be expanded to other European Union countries and the U.S.

The study is initially planned to enroll 15 to 21 participants in Segment 1, which is our first major milestone once the trial initiates and is expected to be completed within the first year, and approximately 403 participants in total for the entire Phase 2/3 trial. There also will be an interim analysis for sample size adjustment between the Phase 2 and Phase 3 segments of the trial. The follow-up period for each patient once randomization starts in Segment 2 of the trial will be 24 months. The study design is powered for statistical significance and designed to meet regulatory requirements to be considered a pivotal trial. The safety will be reviewed by an independent Data and Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB)

In support of our planned Phase 2/3 trial of SIL204, in 2025 we held a meeting with BfArM in Germany to discuss the planned design of the Phase 2/3 trial, at which BfArM agreed, in principle, to the design. Currently, we are manufacturing (through our partners) SIL204 under GMP production to be used for the clinical trial. Throughout 2026, we will focus on the clinical development of SIL204 in the Phase 2/3 trial and on expanding the pipeline with additional preclinical studies for additional indications of SIL204. We will also initiate the toxicology program which will be sufficient to satisfy the toxicology requirements for a marketing application.

We expect to apply H1 2027 for Orphan Drug Designation in both the U.S. and EU. In the U.S., Orphan Drug designation by the FDA gives a company exclusive marketing rights for a seven-year period, along with other benefits to recoup the costs of researching and developing drugs to treat rare diseases. In the EU, a company receives data exclusivity for 10 years which provides protection from similar drugs being approved. We believe the size of the localized pancreatic cancer market fits the requirements for this designation however there can be no assurance that we will be granted such designation and such designation neither shortens the development time or regulatory review time of a drug nor does it increase the likelihood for any approval in the regulatory review process. Our continued development plans for SIL204 are not dependent on whether we are granted Orphan Drug Designation.

------

#### Our Strategy
Our goal is to have a positive impact on the health and treatment of KRAS driven cancer patients, in general and initially with pancreatic cancer through the continued development and commercialization of our pipeline. Key elements of our strategy to advance toward this goal include the following:

●  ***Advancing the clinical development of SIL204 for the treatment of LAPC*** . Our Phase 2 trial with our first-generation siRNA product, Loder in LAPC patients acts as a validation of approach and foundation for our continued development efforts. As further described in "*Future Development Plans*" above, we conducted toxicology studies of SIL204 in 2025 followed by the regulatory submission in Q1 2026 to initiate a Phase 2/3 trial of SIL204 powered for statistical significance. At this time, we are focused on the further development of the core siRNA technology, SIL204, and on advancing its clinical development, while also expanding our pipeline for additional oncological indications.

●  ***Leveraging our platform to other oncological indications harboring the KRASG12 mutation*** . Our preclinical CTG assay results in 2025 evidenced high inhibition of the SNU-601 cell line (G12D mutation), expanding SIL204's potential to a fifth cancer type-gastric cancer.

●  ***Advancing SIL204 to commercialization.*** We have assembled a world class clinical advisory board for better understanding the market in the U.S. and EU.

●  ***Forming strategic alliances and collaborating with partners to augment our capabilities*** . We may pursue strategic alliances with other biopharmaceutical companies with well-established presences in the specialties we aim to target for our indications. This may include co-marketing, co-promotion, and co-development relationships, or a partnership with a diagnostics company to help improve availability of rapid testing. We also intend to explore options to work with partners to augment the study and treatment of patients and the impact of our product candidates, including medical professionals, healthcare professional networks, pharmacy benefit managers, insurance companies, and artificial intelligence companies.

#### Our History
Silexion was established as Silenseed Ltd in 2008 as an Israeli company which underwent a name change to Silexion Therapeutics Ltd. in May 2023. During April 2022, our management was replaced following a health condition of the then-founder and CEO of Silexion, and the new management, after evaluating the viability of commercializing the Loder, has decided to pivot from the first-generation siRNA product candidate to the second-generation siRNA product candidate and develop SIL204.

#### Competition
The biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries, and the oncology sector, are characterized by a rapid evolution of technologies, fierce competition and strong defense of intellectual property rights. While we believe that our discovery programs and technology provide us with competitive advantages, we face competition from major biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies, academic institutions, governmental agencies and public and private research institutions, among others.

Any product candidates that we successfully develop and commercialize will compete with currently approved therapies and new therapeutics that may become available in the future. Key product features that would affect our ability to effectively compete with other therapeutics include efficacy, safety and convenience of our products as compared to other available therapeutics.

------

There are a large number of companies developing or marketing treatments for cancer, including major biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies. The KRAS inhibitors on the market include those from Amgen and Bristol-Myers Squibb which have a small molecule KRAS G12C inhibitors. Clinical-stage projects with pan-KRAS activity include: Revolution Medicines; Chengdu Hyperway; GenFleet; Erasca (ex Joyo); Jacobio/ AstraZeneca; Pfizer; BeOne; Lilly; Amgen; Chugai (Roche); Astellas; BridgeBio Oncology; Adlai Nortye; Jiangsu HengRui; 280Bio; Treeline Biosciences; Alterome Therapeutics. Other companies with selective KRAS inhibitors include AstraZeneca (in collaboration with Usynova), BioNTech, Roche, Merck/Moderna, Boehringer and Gilead. Smaller and other early-stage companies may also prove to be significant competitors. In addition, academic research departments and public and private research institutions may be conducting research on compounds that could prove to be competitive.

Many of the companies against which we may compete have significantly greater financial resources and expertise in the research and development, manufacturing, preclinical testing, conducting clinical trials, obtaining regulatory approvals and marketing approved products than we do. Similar or early-stage companies may also prove to be significant competitors, particularly through collaborative arrangements with large and established companies. These competitors also compete with us in recruiting and retaining qualified scientific and management personnel, and establishing clinical trial sites and patient registration for clinical trials, as well as acquiring technologies complementary to, or necessary for, our programs.

Our competitors have already and/or may obtain more rapidly than we may obtain approval FDA, or other regulatory approval for commercialization of product. As a result, our competitors could establish a strong market position before we are able to enter the market with our products. The availability of coverage and reimbursement from government and other third-party payors for competing products at the time of commercialization of our products will also significantly affect the pricing and competitiveness of our products.

#### Intellectual Property
Our business depends, in part, on our ability to develop and maintain the proprietary aspects of our products.

We are seeking patent protection for our product (SIL204) and have entered national Phase world wide, SIL-204 as a composition and for use in treatment of pancreatic and other cancers, U.S. Patent Application No. 19/443,507, CIP of U.S. Patent Application No. 19/138,670. The expected protection is until 2043 plus estimated extension to 2048. Protection for SIL204 is also expected to come from the patent, "siRNA against KRAS G12x for regional perineural invasion or pain associated with a solid tumor U.S. Patent Application No. 19/443,507" This patent is also at the national stage and pending. Protection is expected until 2040 plus extension.

In 2026, we intend to file for provisions patents for methods of use of SIL204 and its combination treatment via our Integrated Treatment Regimen.

In addition to patent laws, we rely on copyright and trade secret laws to protect our proprietary rights. We also attempt to protect our trade secrets and other proprietary information through agreements with vendors, employees, and consultants.

#### Property and Facilities
Our principal executive officers are currently located in Ramat-Gan, Israel, where we lease a space of 464 square meters consisting of offices, under a lease agreement that will expire on October 31, 2026 (initial term of two years and extension option reasonably certain to be exercised ending October 31, 2028).

#### Employees
As of the date of this Annual Report, we have thirteen full-time and one part-time employees. All of our employees are based in Israel. None of our employees is represented by labor unions or covered by collective bargaining agreements. We believe that we maintain good relations with all of our employees.

#### Grants from the Israeli Innovation Authority
From 2009 to 2020, we received several approvals from the IIA for participation in research and development activities performed by us in a total amount of $5.8 million.

We are obligated to pay royalties to the IIA amounting to 3%-5% of the sales of all of our product candidates and other related revenues generated from such projects, up to 100% of the grants received, linked to the U.S. dollar and bearing interest at the rate of SOFR. The obligation to pay these royalties is contingent upon actual sales of the products and, in the absence of such sales, no payment is required.

As of December 31, 2025, the total royalty amount that may be payable by us to the IIA is approximately $5.8 million ($6.7 million including interest).

#### Legal Proceedings
From time to time, we may become involved in actions, claims, suits, and other legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of our business, including assertions by third parties relating to intellectual property infringement, breaches of contract or warranties, or employment-related matters. We are not currently subject to any material legal proceedings.

#### Regulatory Environment

#### Government Regulation
Clinical trials, the drug approval process, and the marketing of drugs are intensively regulated in the United States and in all major foreign countries. Government authorities in the United States (including federal, state, and local authorities) and in other countries (including federal, state, and local authorities) extensively regulate, among other things, the manufacturing, research and clinical development, marketing, labeling and packaging, storage, distribution, post-approval monitoring and reporting, advertising and promotion, pricing, and export and import of pharmaceutical products, such as those we are developing. The process of obtaining regulatory approvals and the subsequent compliance with appropriate federal, state, local, and foreign statutes and regulations require the expenditure of substantial time and financial resources.

#### U.S. Government Regulation
In the United States, the Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, regulates drugs under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FDCA) and related regulations and biologics under the FDCA and the Public Health Service Act (PHSA) and its implementing regulations. FDA approval is required before any new unapproved drug or dosage form, including a new use of a previously approved drug, can be marketed in the United States. Drugs and biologics are also subject to other federal, state and local statutes and regulations. Failure to comply with the applicable United States regulatory requirements at any time during the product development process, approval process or after approval may subject an applicant to administrative or judicial sanctions. These sanctions could include the imposition by the FDA or an Institutional Review Board, or IRB, of a clinical hold on trials, the FDA's refusal to approve pending applications or supplements, license suspension or revocation, withdrawal of an approval, warning letters, product recalls, product seizures, total or partial suspension of production or distribution, injunctions, fines, civil penalties or criminal prosecution. Any agency or judicial enforcement action could have a material adverse effect on us.

------

The FDA and comparable regulatory agencies in state and local jurisdictions and in foreign countries impose substantial requirements upon the clinical development, manufacture and marketing of pharmaceutical products. These agencies and other federal, state and local entities regulate research and development activities and the testing, manufacture, quality control, safety, effectiveness, labeling, storage, distribution, record keeping, approval, advertising and promotion of our products.

The FDA's policies may change and additional government regulations may be enacted that could prevent or delay regulatory approval of our platforms and candidate products or any future product candidates or approval of new disease indications or label changes. We cannot predict the likelihood, nature or extent of adverse governmental regulation that might arise from future legislative or administrative action, either in the United States or abroad.

#### Marketing Approval
The process required by the FDA before product candidates may be marketed in the United States, the European Medicines Agency, or EMA, before a product can be marketed in Europe, and Medicines & Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) for the United Kingdom, generally involves the following:

● completion of extensive preclinical laboratory tests and preclinical animal studies, all performed in accordance with the GLP regulations;

● submission to the FDA of an investigational new drug application, or IND, Clinical Trial Application (CTA) for Europe which must become effective or approved before human clinical studies may begin and must be updated on a regular basis;

● approval by an independent institutional review board, or IRB, or ethics committee representing each clinical site before each clinical study may be initiated;

● performance of adequate and well-controlled human clinical studies to establish the safety and efficacy of the product candidate for each proposed indication;

● preparation of and submission to the FDA of a new drug application, or NDA, or biologics license application, or BLA, or for Europe a Marketing Authorization Application (MAA) after completion of all pivotal clinical studies;

● potential review of the product application by an FDA advisory committee, where appropriate and if applicable. In the EU, the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) issues a scientific opinion to the European Commission which issues the marketing authorization;

● a determination by the FDA within 60 days of its receipt of an NDA or BLA to file the application for review;

● satisfactory completion of an FDA pre-approval inspection of the manufacturing facilities where the proposed product drug substance is produced to assess compliance with cGMP; and

● FDA review and approval of an NDA or BLA or marketing authorization in the European Union (EU) in all European Union Member States plus Norway, Iceland and Liechtenstein, prior to any commercial marketing or sale of the drug in the United States. Note that if the centralized procedure is used, which is mandatory for all new anticancer products, a marketing authorization is issued centrally by the EU commission, which is valid immediately in all member states of the EEA (EU plus Iceland, Norway, and Liechtenstein).

------

The testing and approval process requires substantial time and financial resources, and we cannot be certain that any approvals for our candidate products will be granted on a timely basis, if at all.

An IND/CTA is a request for authorization from the FDA/national regulatory authorities in Europe to administer an investigational new drug product to humans. The central focus of an IND/CTA submission is on the general investigational plan and the protocol(s) for human studies. The IND and CTA also include results of animal and *in vitro* studies assessing the toxicology, pharmacokinetics, pharmacology, and pharmacodynamic characteristics of the product; chemistry, manufacturing, and controls information; and any available human data or literature to support the use of the investigational new drug. An IND or a CTA must become effective before human clinical trials may begin. An IND will automatically become effective 30 days after receipt by the FDA, unless before that time the FDA raises concerns or questions related to the proposed clinical studies. In such a case, the IND may be placed on clinical hold and the IND sponsor and the FDA must resolve any outstanding concerns or questions before clinical studies can begin. Accordingly, submission of an IND may or may not result in the FDA allowing clinical studies to commence. In Europe, a CTA is required to be approved by regulators, which may take several months. Accordingly, submission of a CTA to European regulators may or may not result in permission to commence clinical studies in Europe.

We will need to successfully complete an extensive additional clinical trial or some clinical trials in order to be in a position to submit a new drug application to the FDA. Our planned future clinical trials for our candidate products may not begin or be completed on schedule, if at all. Clinical trials can be delayed for a variety of reasons, including delays in:

● obtaining regulatory approval to commence a study;

● reaching agreement with third-party clinical trial sites and their subsequent performance in conducting accurate and reliable studies on a timely basis;

● obtaining institutional review board approval or an Ethics Committee approval to conduct a study at a prospective site;

● recruiting patients to participate in a study; and

● supply of the drug.

We must reach agreement with the FDA/European national authorities on the proposed protocols for our future clinical trials in the United States and EU. A separate submission apart from any IND or initial CTA application we submit must be made for each successive clinical trial to be conducted during product development. Further, an independent IRB or EC for each site proposing to conduct the clinical trial must review and approve the plan for any clinical trial before it commences at that site. Informed consent must also be obtained from each study subject. Regulatory authorities, an IRB or EC, a data safety monitoring board or the Sponsor may suspend or terminate a clinical trial at any time on various grounds, including a finding that the participants are being exposed to an unacceptable health risk.

*Clinical Studies*

Clinical studies involve the administration of the investigational new drug to human subjects under the supervision of qualified investigators in accordance with current cGCP/GCP, which include the requirement that all research subjects provide their informed consent for their participation in any clinical study. Clinical studies are conducted under protocols detailing, among other things, the objectives of the study, the parameters to be used in monitoring safety, and the efficacy criteria to be evaluated. A protocol for each clinical study and any subsequent protocol amendments must be submitted to the FDA and/or European national authorities as part of the IND or CTA. Additionally, approval must also be obtained from each clinical study site's IRB or EC before the studies may be initiated, and the IRB/EC must monitor the study until completed. There are also requirements governing the reporting of ongoing clinical studies and clinical study results to public registries.

------

Our objective is to conduct additional clinical trials for our candidate products and, if those trials are successful, seek marketing approval from the FDA and other worldwide regulatory bodies.

For purposes of NDA approval, human clinical trials are typically conducted in phases that may overlap.

● *Phase 1.* The drug is initially introduced into healthy human subjects and tested for safety, dosage tolerance, absorption, metabolism, distribution and excretion. In the case of some products for severe or life-threatening diseases, especially when the product may be too inherently toxic to ethically administer to healthy volunteers, the initial human testing is often conducted in patients.

● *Phase 2.* This phase involves trials in a limited patient population to identify possible adverse effects and safety risks, to preliminarily evaluate the efficacy of the product for specific targeted diseases and to determine dosage tolerance and optimal dosage.

● *Phase 3.* This phase involves trials undertaken to further evaluate dosage, clinical efficacy and safety in an expanded patient population, often at geographically dispersed clinical trial sites. These trials are intended to establish the overall risk/benefit ratio of the product and provide an adequate basis for product labeling. • Phase 2/3. This type of trial incorporates the goals of Phase 2 and Phase 3 clinical trials in one combined trial.

● *Phase 4.* In some cases, the FDA or the EMA may condition approval of an NDA or BLA or MAA for a product candidate on the Sponsor's agreement to conduct additional clinical studies after approval. In other cases, a sponsor may voluntarily conduct additional clinical studies after approval to gain more information about the drug. Such post-approval studies are typically referred to as Phase 4 clinical studies.

A pivotal study is a clinical study that adequately meets regulatory agency requirements for the evaluation of a drug candidate's efficacy and safety such that it can be used to justify the approval of the product. Generally, pivotal studies are Phase 3 studies, but the FDA or EMA may accept results from a Phase 2 study if such study's design provides a well-controlled and reliable assessment of clinical benefit, particularly in situations where there is an unmet medical need and the results are sufficiently robust.

The FDA/EMA, the IRB/EC, or the clinical study sponsor may suspend or terminate a clinical study at any time on various grounds, including a finding that the research subjects are being exposed to an unacceptable health risk.

Additionally, some clinical studies are overseen by an independent group of qualified experts organized by the clinical study sponsor, known as a data safety monitoring board or committee. This group provides authorization or recommendation for whether or not a study may move forward at designated check points based on access to certain data from the study. We may also suspend or terminate a clinical study based on evolving business objectives and/or competitive climate. All of these trials must be conducted in accordance with cGCP requirements in order for the data to be considered reliable for regulatory purposes.

The clinical study process can take several (2- 12 or more) years to complete, and there can be no assurance that the data collected will support FDA or EU Commission approval or licensure of the product. Government regulation may delay or prevent marketing of product candidates or new drugs for a considerable period of time and impose costly procedures upon our activities. We cannot be certain that the FDA or any other regulatory agency will grant approvals for our candidate products or any future product candidates on a timely basis, if at all. Success in early-stage clinical trials does not ensure success in later stage clinical trials. Data obtained from clinical activities is not always conclusive and may be susceptible to varying interpretations, which could delay, limit or prevent regulatory approval.

------

#### The NDA Approval Process
Assuming successful completion of all required testing in accordance with all applicable regulatory requirements, detailed investigational new drug product information is submitted to the FDA in the form of an NDA or BLA requesting approval to market the product for one or more indications. Under federal law, the submission of most NDAs and BLAs is subject to an application user fee. For fiscal year 2025, the application user fee exceeds $4.3 million, and the Sponsor of an approved NDA or BLA is also subject to annual product and establishment user fees, set at $403,889 per product and $9,280 per establishment. These fees are typically increased annually. Applications for orphan drug products are exempted from the NDA and BLA user fees and may be exempted from product and establishment user fees, unless the application includes an indication for other than a rare disease or condition.

An NDA or BLA must include all relevant data available from pertinent preclinical and clinical studies, including negative or ambiguous results as well as positive findings, together with detailed information relating to the product's chemistry, manufacturing, controls, and proposed labeling, among other things. Data can come from company-sponsored clinical studies intended to test the safety and effectiveness of a use of a product, or from a number of alternative sources, including studies initiated by investigators. To support marketing approval, the data submitted must be sufficient in quality and quantity to establish the safety and effectiveness of the investigational new drug product to the satisfaction of the FDA.

The FDA will initially review the NDA for completeness before it accepts it for filing. The FDA has 60 days from its receipt of an NDA to determine whether the application will be accepted for filing based on the agency's threshold determination that the application is sufficiently complete to permit substantive review. After the NDA submission is accepted for filing, the FDA reviews the NDA to determine, among other things, whether the proposed product is safe and effective for its intended use, and whether the product is being manufactured in accordance with cGMP to assure and preserve the product's identity, strength, quality and purity. The FDA may refer applications for novel drug products or drug products that present difficult questions of safety or efficacy to an advisory committee, typically a panel that includes clinicians and other experts, for review, evaluation and a recommendation as to whether the application should be approved and, if so, under what conditions. The FDA is not bound by the recommendations of an advisory committee, but it considers such recommendations carefully when making decisions.

Based on pivotal Phase 3 trial results submitted in an NDA, upon the request of an applicant, the FDA may grant a priority review designation to a product, which sets the target date for FDA action on the application at six months, rather than the standard ten months. Priority review is given where preliminary estimates indicate that a product, if approved, has the potential to provide a significant improvement compared to marketed products or offers a therapy where no satisfactory alternative therapy exists. Priority review designation does not change the scientific/medical standard for approval or the quality of evidence necessary to support approval.

After the FDA completes its initial review of an NDA, it will communicate to the sponsor that the drug will either be approved, or it will issue a complete response letter to communicate that the NDA will not be approved in its current form and inform the sponsor of changes that must be made or additional clinical, nonclinical or manufacturing data that must be received before the application can be approved, with no implication regarding the ultimate approvability of the application.

Before approving an NDA or BLA, the FDA will typically inspect the facilities at which the product is manufactured. The FDA will not approve the product unless it determines that the manufacturing processes and facilities are in compliance with cGMP requirements and adequate to assure consistent production of the product within required specifications.

------

Additionally, before approving an NDA, the FDA may inspect one or more clinical sites to assure compliance with GCPs. If the FDA determines the application, manufacturing process or manufacturing facilities are not acceptable, it typically will outline the deficiencies and often will request additional testing or information. This may significantly delay further review of the application. If the FDA finds that a clinical site did not conduct the clinical trial in accordance with GCP, the FDA may determine the data generated by the clinical site should be excluded from the primary efficacy analyses provided in the NDA. Additionally, notwithstanding the submission of any requested additional information, the FDA ultimately may decide that the application does not satisfy the regulatory criteria for approval.

The testing and approval process for a drug requires substantial time, effort and financial resources, and this process may take several years to complete. Data obtained from clinical activities are not always conclusive and may be susceptible to varying interpretations, which could delay, limit or prevent regulatory approval. The FDA may not grant approval on a timely basis, or at all. We may encounter difficulties or unanticipated costs in our efforts to secure necessary governmental approvals, which could delay or preclude us from marketing our products.

The FDA may require, or companies may pursue, additional clinical trials after a product is approved. These so-called Phase 4 studies may be made a condition to be satisfied for continuing drug approval. The results of Phase 4 studies can confirm the effectiveness of a product candidate and can provide important safety information. In addition, the FDA now has express statutory authority to require sponsors to conduct post-market studies to specifically address safety issues identified by the agency.

Any approvals that we may ultimately receive could be withdrawn if required post-marketing trials or analyses do not meet the FDA requirements, which could materially harm the commercial prospects for our candidate products.

The FDA also has authority to require a Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy, or REMS, from manufacturers to ensure that the benefits of a drug or biological product outweigh its risks. A sponsor may also voluntarily propose a REMS as part of the NDA submission. The need for a REMS is determined as part of the review of the NDA. Based on statutory standards, elements of a REMS may include "dear doctor letters," a medication guide, more elaborate targeted educational programs, and in some cases restrictions on distribution. These elements are negotiated as part of the NDA approval, and in some cases if consensus is not obtained until after the PDUFA review cycle, the approval date may be delayed. Once adopted, REMS are subject to periodic assessment and modification.

Even if a product candidate receives regulatory approval, the approval may be limited to specific disease states, patient populations and dosages, or might contain significant limitations on use in the form of warnings, precautions or contraindications, or in the form of onerous risk management plans, restrictions on distribution, or post-marketing study requirements. Further, even after regulatory approval is obtained, later discovery of previously unknown problems with a product may result in restrictions on the product or even complete withdrawal of the product from the market. Delay in obtaining, or failure to obtain, regulatory approval for our candidate products, or obtaining approval but for significantly limited use, would harm our business. In addition, we cannot predict what adverse governmental regulations may arise from future U.S. or foreign governmental action.

*Expedited Review and Accelerated Approval Programs*

A sponsor may seek approval of its product candidate under programs designed to accelerate FDA's review and approval of NDAs and BLAs. For example, Fast Track Designation may be granted to a drug intended for treatment of a serious or life-threatening disease or condition that has potential to address unmet medical needs for the disease or condition. The key benefits of fast track designation are the eligibility for priority review, rolling review (submission of portions of an application before the complete marketing application is submitted), and accelerated approval, if relevant criteria are met. Based on results of the Phase 3 clinical study(ies) submitted in an NDA or BLA, upon the request of an applicant, the FDA may grant the NDA or BLA a priority review designation, which sets the target date for FDA action on the application at six months after the FDA accepts the application for filing. Priority review is granted where there is evidence that the proposed product would be a significant improvement in the safety or effectiveness of the treatment, diagnosis, or prevention of a serious condition. If criteria are not met for priority review, the application is subject to the standard FDA review period of ten months after FDA accepts the application for filing. Priority review designation does not change the scientific/medical standard for approval or the quality of evidence necessary to support approval.

------

Under the accelerated approval program, the FDA may approve an NDA or a BLA on the basis of either a surrogate endpoint that is reasonably likely to predict clinical benefit, or on a clinical endpoint that can be measured earlier than irreversible morbidity or mortality, that is reasonably likely to predict an effect on irreversible morbidity or mortality or other clinical benefit, taking into account the severity, rarity, or prevalence of the condition and the availability or lack of alternative treatments. Post-marketing studies or completion of ongoing studies after marketing approval are generally required to verify the drug's clinical benefit in relationship to the surrogate endpoint or ultimate outcome in relationship to the clinical benefit. In addition, the Food and Drug Administration Safety and Innovation Act (FDASIA), which was enacted and signed into law in 2012, established the new "breakthrough therapy" designation. A sponsor may seek FDA designation of its product candidate as a breakthrough therapy if the drug is intended, alone or in combination with one or more other drugs, to treat a serious or life-threatening disease or condition and preliminary clinical evidence indicates that the drug may demonstrate substantial improvement over existing therapies on one or more clinically significant endpoints, such as substantial treatment effects observed early in clinical development.

#### FDA Post-Approval Requirements
Drugs manufactured or distributed pursuant to FDA approvals are subject to pervasive and continuing regulation by the FDA, including, among other things, requirements relating to recordkeeping, periodic reporting, product sampling and distribution, advertising and promotion and reporting of adverse experiences with the product. After approval, most changes to the approved product, such as adding new indications or other labeling claims are subject to prior FDA review and approval. There also are continuing, annual user fee requirements for any marketed products and the establishments at which such products are manufactured, as well as new application fees for supplemental applications with clinical data.

Drug manufacturers are subject to periodic unannounced inspections by the FDA and state agencies for compliance with cGMP requirements. Changes to the manufacturing process are strictly regulated, and, depending on the significance of the change, may require prior FDA approval before being implemented. FDA regulations also require investigation and correction of any deviations from cGMP and impose reporting and documentation requirements upon us and any third-party manufacturers that we may decide to use. Accordingly, manufacturers must continue to expend time, money and effort in the area of production and quality control to maintain compliance with cGMP and other aspects of regulatory compliance.

We rely, and expect to continue to rely, on third parties for the production of clinical quantities of our product candidates, and expect to rely in the future on third parties for the production of commercial quantities. Future FDA and state inspections may identify compliance issues at our facilities or at the facilities of our contract manufacturers that may disrupt production or distribution, or require substantial resources to correct. In addition, discovery of previously unknown problems with a product or the failure to comply with applicable requirements may result in restrictions on a product, manufacturer or holder of an approved NDA or BLA, including withdrawal or recall of the product from the market or other voluntary, FDA-initiated or judicial action that could delay or prohibit further marketing. Also, new government requirements, including those resulting from new legislation, may be established, or the FDA's policies may change, which could delay or prevent regulatory approval of our products under development.

The FDA may withdraw approval if compliance with regulatory requirements and standards is not maintained or if problems occur after the product reaches the market. Later discovery of previously unknown problems with a product, including adverse events of unanticipated severity or frequency, or with manufacturing processes, or failure to comply with regulatory requirements, may result in revisions to the approved labeling to add new safety information, imposition of post-market studies or clinical studies to assess new safety risks, or imposition of distribution restrictions or other restrictions under a REMS program. Other potential consequences include, among other things:

------

● restrictions on the marketing or manufacturing of the product, complete withdrawal of the product from the market or product recalls;

● fines, warning letters or holds on post-approval clinical studies;

● refusal of the FDA to approve pending NDAs or supplements to approved NDAs, or suspension or revocation of product license approvals;

● injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties; or

● product seizure or detention, or refusal to permit the import or export of products.

The FDA strictly regulates marketing, labeling, advertising, and promotion of products that are placed on the market. Drugs may be promoted only for the approved indications and in accordance with the provisions of the approved label. The FDA and other agencies actively enforce the laws and regulations prohibiting the promotion of off-label uses, and a company that is found to have improperly promoted off-label uses may be subject to significant liability.

*Orphan Designation and Exclusivity*

The FDA may grant orphan drug designation to drugs intended to treat a rare disease or condition that affects fewer than 200,000 individuals in the United States, or, if it affects more than 200,000 individuals in the United States, when there is no reasonable expectation that the cost of developing and making the drug for this type of disease or condition will be recovered from sales in the United States.

Orphan drug designation entitles a party to financial incentives such as opportunities for grant funding of clinical study costs, tax advantages, and user-fee waivers. In addition, if a product receives FDA approval for the indication for which it has orphan designation, the product is entitled to orphan drug exclusivity, which means the FDA may not approve any other application to market the same drug for the same indication for a period of seven years, except in limited circumstances, such as a showing of clinical superiority over the product with orphan exclusivity.

*Patent Term Restoration*

Depending upon the timing, duration, and specifics of the FDA approval of the use of our product candidates, U.S. patents that may be granted to us in the future may be eligible for limited patent term extension under the Drug Price Competition and Patent Term Restoration Act of 1984, commonly referred to as the Hatch-Waxman Amendments. The Hatch-Waxman Amendments permit a patent restoration term of up to five years as compensation for patent term lost during product development and the FDA regulatory review process. However, patent term restoration cannot extend the remaining term of a patent beyond a total of 14 years from the product's approval date. The patent term restoration period is generally one-half the time between the effective date of an IND and the submission date of an NDA or BLA, plus the time between the submission date and the approval of that application. Only one patent applicable to an approved product is eligible for the extension and the application for the extension must be submitted prior to the expiration of the patent. The USPTO, in consultation with the FDA, reviews and approves the application for any patent term extension or restoration. In the future, we may apply for restoration of patent term for one of our currently owned or licensed patents to add patent life beyond its current expiration date, depending on the expected length of the clinical studies and other factors involved in the filing of the relevant NDA or BLA.

------

*Biosimilars and Exclusivity*

The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, or Affordable Care Act, signed into law on March 23, 2010, includes a subtitle called the Biologics Price Competition and Innovation Act of 2009 (BPCI Act), which created an abbreviated approval pathway for biological products shown to be similar to, or interchangeable with, an FDA-licensed reference biological product. This amendment to the PHSA attempts to minimize duplicative testing. Biosimilarity, which requires that there be no clinically meaningful differences between the biological product and the reference product in terms of safety, purity, and potency, can be shown through analytical studies, animal studies, and a clinical study or studies. Interchangeability requires that a product is biosimilar to the reference product and the product must demonstrate that it can be expected to produce the same clinical results as the reference product and, for products administered multiple times, the biologic and the reference biologic may be switched after one has been previously administered without increasing safety risks or risks of diminished efficacy relative to exclusive use of the reference biologic. However, complexities associated with the larger, and often more complex, structure of biological products, as well as the process by which such products are manufactured, pose significant hurdles to implementation that are still being worked out by the FDA.

A reference biologic is granted twelve years of exclusivity from the time of first licensure of the reference product. The first biologic product submitted under the abbreviated approval pathway that is determined to be interchangeable with the reference product has exclusivity against other biologics submitting under the abbreviated approval pathway for the lesser of (i) one year after the first commercial marketing, (ii) eighteen months after approval if there is no legal challenge, (iii) eighteen months after the resolution in the applicant's favor of a lawsuit challenging the biologics' patents if an application has been submitted, or (iv) 42 months after the application has been approved if a lawsuit is ongoing within the 42-month period.

*Abbreviated New Drug Applications for Generic Drugs*

In 1984, with passage of the Hatch-Waxman Act, Congress authorized the FDA to approve generic drugs that are the same as drugs previously approved by the FDA under the NDA provisions of the statute. To obtain approval of a generic drug, an applicant must submit an abbreviated new drug application (ANDA) to the agency. In support of such applications, a generic manufacturer may rely on the preclinical and clinical testing previously conducted for a drug product previously approved under an NDA, known as the reference listed drug (RLD).

Specifically, in order for an ANDA to be approved, the FDA must find that the generic version is identical to the RLD with respect to the active ingredients, the route of administration, the dosage form, and the strength of the drug. At the same time, the FDA must also determine that the generic drug is "bioequivalent" to the innovator drug. Under the statute, a generic drug is bioequivalent to an RLD if "the rate and extent of absorption of the generic drug do not show a significant difference from the rate and extent of absorption of the listed drug..."

Upon approval of an ANDA, the FDA indicates that the generic product is "therapeutically equivalent" to the RLD and it assigns a therapeutic equivalence rating to the approved generic drug in its publication "Approved Drug Products with Therapeutic Equivalence Evaluations," also referred to as the "Orange Book." Physicians and pharmacists consider an "AB" therapeutic equivalence rating to mean that a generic drug is fully substitutable for the RLD. In addition, by operation of certain state laws and numerous health insurance programs, the FDA's designation of an "AB" rating often results in substitution of the generic drug without the knowledge or consent of either the prescribing physician or patient.

The FDCA provides a period of five years of non-patent exclusivity for a new drug containing a new chemical entity. In cases where such exclusivity has been granted, an ANDA may not be filed with the FDA until the expiration of five years unless the submission is accompanied by a Paragraph IV certification, in which case the applicant may submit its application four years following the original product approval. The FDCA also provides for a period of three years of exclusivity if the NDA includes reports of one or more new clinical investigations, other than bioavailability or bioequivalence studies, that were conducted by or for the applicant and are essential to the approval of the application. This three-year exclusivity period often protects changes to a previously approved drug product, such as a new dosage form, route of administration, combination or indication.

------

*Hatch-Waxman Patent Certification and the 30-Month Stay*

Upon approval of an NDA or a supplement thereto, NDA sponsors are required to list with the FDA each patent with claims that cover the applicant's product or a method of using the product. Each of the patents listed by the NDA sponsor is published in the Orange Book. When an ANDA applicant files its application with the FDA, the applicant is required to certify to the FDA concerning any patents listed for the reference product in the Orange Book, except for patents covering methods of use for which the ANDA applicant is not seeking approval.

Specifically, the applicant must certify with respect to each patent that:

● the required patent information has not been filed;

● the listed patent has expired;

● the listed patent has not expired, but will expire on a particular date and approval is sought after patent expiration; or

● the listed patent is invalid, unenforceable or will not be infringed by the new product.

A certification that the new product will not infringe the already approved product's listed patents or that such patents are invalid or unenforceable is called a Paragraph IV certification. If the applicant does not challenge the listed patents or indicates that it is not seeking approval of a patented method of use, the ANDA application will not be approved until all the listed patents claiming the referenced product have expired.

If the ANDA applicant has provided a Paragraph IV certification to the FDA, the applicant must also send notice of the Paragraph IV certification to the NDA and patent holders once the ANDA has been accepted for filing by the FDA. The NDA and patent holders may then initiate a patent infringement lawsuit in response to the notice of the Paragraph IV certification. The filing of a patent infringement lawsuit within 45 days after the receipt of a Paragraph IV certification automatically prevents the FDA from approving the ANDA until the earlier of 30 months after the receipt of the Paragraph IV notice, expiration of the patent, or a decision in the infringement case that is favorable to the ANDA applicant.

#### European Union/Rest of World Government Regulation
In addition to regulations in the United States, we will be subject to a variety of regulations in other jurisdictions governing, among other things, clinical studies and any commercial sales and distribution of our products.

Whether or not we obtain FDA approval for a product, we must obtain the requisite approvals from regulatory authorities in foreign countries prior to the commencement of clinical studies or marketing of the product in those countries. Certain countries outside of the United States have a similar process that requires the submission of a clinical study application much like the IND prior to the commencement of human clinical studies. In the European Union, for example, a clinical study application, or CTA, must be submitted for each clinical protocol to each country's national health authority and an independent ethics committee, much like the FDA and IRB, respectively. Once the CTA is accepted in accordance with a country's requirements, the clinical study may proceed.

The requirements and process governing the conduct of clinical studies vary from country to country. In all cases, the clinical studies are conducted in accordance with cGCP, the applicable regulatory requirements, and the ethical principles that have their origin in the Declaration of Helsinki.

------

To obtain regulatory approval of an investigational medicinal product under European Union regulatory systems, we must submit a marketing authorization application. The content of the NDA or BLA filed in the United States is similar to that required in the European Union, with the exception of, among other things, country-specific document requirements.

For other countries outside of the European Union, such as countries in Eastern Europe, Latin America or Asia, the requirements governing product licensing, pricing, and reimbursement vary from country to country.

Countries that are part of the European Union, as well as countries outside of the European Union, have their own governing bodies, requirements, and processes with respect to the approval of pharmaceutical products. If we fail to comply with applicable foreign regulatory requirements, we may be subject to, among other things, fines, suspension or withdrawal of regulatory approvals, product recalls, seizure of products, operating restrictions and criminal prosecution.

*Authorization Procedures in the European Union*

Medicines can be authorized in the European Union by using either the centralized authorization procedure or national authorization procedures.

*Centralized procedure*

The EMA implemented the centralized procedure for the approval of human medicines to facilitate marketing authorizations that are valid throughout the European Economic Area, or EEA, which is comprised of the 27 member states of the European Union plus Norway, Iceland, and Lichtenstein. This procedure results in a single marketing authorization issued by the EMA that is valid across the EEA. The centralized procedure is compulsory for human medicines that are: derived from biotechnology processes, such as genetic engineering, contain a new active substance indicated for the treatment of certain diseases, such as HIV/AIDS, cancer, diabetes, neurodegenerative disorders or autoimmune diseases and other immune dysfunctions, and officially designated orphan medicines.

For medicines that do not fall within these categories, an applicant has the option of submitting an application for a centralized marketing authorization to the European Commission following a favorable opinion by the EMA, as long as the medicine concerned is a significant therapeutic, scientific or technical innovation, or if its authorization would be in the interest of public health.

*National authorization procedures*

There are also two other possible routes to authorize medicinal products in several European Union countries, which are available for investigational medicinal products that fall outside the scope of the centralized procedure:

● *Decentralized procedure*. Using the decentralized procedure, an applicant may apply for simultaneous authorization in more than one European Union country of medicinal products that have not yet been authorized in any European Union country and that do not fall within the mandatory scope of the centralized procedure.

● *Mutual recognition procedure.* In the mutual recognition procedure, a medicine is first authorized in one European Union Member State, in accordance with the national procedures of that country. Following this, further marketing authorizations can be sought from other European Union countries in a procedure whereby the countries concerned agree to recognize the validity of the original, national marketing authorization.

In most cases, a Pediatric Investigation Plan, and/or a request for waiver or deferral, is required for submission prior to submitting a marketing authorization application. A PIP describes, among other things, proposed pediatric studies and their timing relative to clinical studies in adults.

------

*New Chemical Entity Exclusivity*

In the European Union, new chemical entities, sometimes referred to as new active substances, qualify for eight years of data exclusivity upon marketing authorization and an additional two years of market exclusivity. This data exclusivity, if granted, prevents regulatory authorities in the European Union from referencing the innovator's data to assess a generic (abbreviated) application for eight years, after which generic marketing authorization can be submitted, and the innovator's data may be referenced, but not approved for two years. The overall ten-year period will be extended to a maximum of eleven years if, during the first eight years of those ten years, the marketing authorization holder obtains an authorization for one or more new therapeutic indications which, during the scientific evaluation prior to their authorization, are held to bring a significant clinical benefit in comparison with existing therapies.

*Orphan Designation and Exclusivity*

In the European Union, the EMA's Committee for Orphan Medicinal Products, or COMP, grants orphan drug designation to promote the development of products that are intended for the diagnosis, prevention or treatment of life-threatening or chronically debilitating conditions affecting not more than 5 in 10,000 persons in the European Union Community and for which no satisfactory method of diagnosis, prevention, or treatment has been authorized (or the product would be a significant benefit to those affected). Additionally, designation is granted for products intended for the diagnosis, prevention, or treatment of a life-threatening, seriously debilitating or serious and chronic condition and when, without incentives, it is unlikely that sales of the drug in the European Union would be sufficient to justify the necessary investment in developing the medicinal product.

In the European Union, orphan drug designation entitles a party to financial incentives such as reduction of fees or fee waivers and 10 years of market exclusivity is granted following medicinal product approval. This period may be reduced to six years if the orphan drug designation criteria are no longer met, including where it is shown that the product is sufficiently profitable not to justify maintenance of market exclusivity, and may be prolonged to a total of 12 years, if pediatric studies in accordance with a PIP are being performed.

Orphan drug designation must be requested before submitting an application for marketing approval. Orphan drug designation does not convey any advantage in, or shorten the duration of, the regulatory review and approval process.

*Exceptional Circumstances/Conditional Approval*

Orphan drugs or drugs with unmet medical needs may be eligible for EU approval under exceptional circumstances or with conditional approval. Approval under exceptional circumstances is applicable to orphan and non-orphan products and is used when an applicant is unable to provide comprehensive data on the efficacy and safety under normal conditions of use because the indication for which the product is intended is encountered so rarely that the applicant cannot reasonably be expected to provide comprehensive evidence, when the present state of scientific knowledge does not allow comprehensive information to be provided, or when it is medically unethical to collect such information. Conditional marketing authorization is applicable to orphan medicinal products, medicinal products for seriously debilitating or life-threatening diseases, or medicinal products to be used in emergency situations in response to recognized public threats. Conditional marketing authorization can be granted on the basis of less complete data than is normally required in order to meet unmet medical needs and in the interest of public health, provided the risk-benefit balance is positive, it is likely that the applicant will be able to provide the comprehensive clinical data, and unmet medical needs will be fulfilled. Conditional marketing authorization is subject to certain specific obligations to be reviewed annually.

------

*Accelerated Review*

Under the Centralized Procedure in the European Union, the maximum timeframe for the evaluation of a marketing authorization application is 210 days (excluding clock stops, when additional written or oral information is to be provided by the applicant in response to questions asked by the EMA's Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP)). Accelerated evaluation might be granted by the CHMP in exceptional cases, when a medicinal product is expected to be of a major public health interest, particularly from the point of view of therapeutic innovation. In this circumstance, EMA ensures that the opinion of the CHMP is given within 150 days, excluding clock stops.

#### Pharmaceutical Coverage, Pricing and Reimbursement
Significant uncertainty exists as to the coverage and reimbursement status of any drug products for which we obtain regulatory approval. In the United States and markets in other countries, sales of any products for which we receive regulatory approval for commercial sale will depend in part on the availability of coverage and reimbursement from third-party payors. Third-party payors include government authorities, managed care providers, private health insurers and other organizations. The process for determining whether a payor will provide coverage for a drug product may be separate from the process for setting the reimbursement rate that the payor will pay for the drug product. Third-party payors may limit coverage to specific drug products on an approved list, or formulary, which might not include all of the FDA-approved drugs for a particular indication. Moreover, a payor's decision to provide coverage for a drug product does not imply that an adequate reimbursement rate will be approved. Adequate third-party reimbursement may not be available to enable us to maintain price levels sufficient to realize an appropriate return on our investment in product development.

Third-party payors are increasingly challenging the price and examining the medical necessity and cost-effectiveness of medical products and services, in addition to their safety and efficacy. In order to obtain coverage and reimbursement for any product that might be approved for sale, we may need to conduct expensive pharmacoeconomic studies in order to demonstrate the medical necessity and cost-effectiveness of our products, in addition to the costs required to obtain regulatory approvals. Our product candidates may not be considered medically necessary or cost-effective. If third-party payors do not consider a product to be cost-effective compared to other available therapies, they may not cover the product after approval as a benefit under their plans or, if they do, the level of payment may not be sufficient to allow a company to sell its products at a profit.

The U.S. government, state legislatures and foreign governments have shown significant interest in implementing cost containment programs to limit the growth of government-paid health care costs, including price controls, restrictions on reimbursement and requirements for substitution of generic products for branded prescription drugs. By way of example, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act, collectively, the Healthcare Reform Law, contains provisions that may reduce the profitability of drug products, including, for example, increased rebates for drugs sold to Medicaid programs, extension of Medicaid rebates to Medicaid managed care plans, mandatory discounts for certain Medicare Part D beneficiaries and annual fees based on pharmaceutical companies' share of sales to federal health care programs. Adoption of government controls and measures, and tightening of restrictive policies in jurisdictions with existing controls and measures, could limit payments for pharmaceuticals.

In the European Community, governments influence the price of pharmaceutical products through their pricing and reimbursement rules and control of national health care systems that fund a large part of the cost of those products to consumers. Some jurisdictions operate positive and negative list systems under which products may only be marketed once a reimbursement price has been agreed to by the government. To obtain reimbursement or pricing approval, some of these countries may require the completion of clinical studies that compare the cost-effectiveness of a particular product candidate to currently available therapies. Other member states allow companies to fix their own prices for medicines, but monitor and control company profits. The downward pressure on health care costs in general, particularly prescription drugs, has become very intense. As a result, increasingly high barriers are being erected to the entry of new products. In addition, in some countries, cross-border imports from low-priced markets exert a commercial pressure on pricing within a country.

------

The marketability of any products for which we receive regulatory approval for commercial sale may suffer if the government and third-party payors fail to provide adequate coverage and reimbursement. In addition, an increasing emphasis on cost containment measures in the United States and other countries has increased and we expect will continue to increase the pressure on pharmaceutical pricing. Coverage policies and third-party reimbursement rates may change at any time. Even if favorable coverage and reimbursement status is attained for one or more products for which we receive regulatory approval, less favorable coverage policies and reimbursement rates may be implemented in the future.

#### Other Healthcare Laws and Compliance Requirements
If we obtain regulatory approval for any of our product candidates, we may be subject to various federal and state laws targeting fraud and abuse in the healthcare industry. These laws may impact, among other things, our proposed sales, marketing and education programs. In addition, we may be subject to patient privacy regulation by both the federal government and the states in which we conduct our business. The laws that may affect our ability to operate include:

● the federal Anti-Kickback Statute, which prohibits, among other things, persons from knowingly and willfully soliciting, receiving, offering or paying remuneration, directly or indirectly, to induce, or in return for, the purchase or recommendation of an item or service reimbursable under a federal healthcare program, such as the Medicare and Medicaid programs;

● federal civil and criminal false claims laws and civil monetary penalty laws, which prohibit, among other things, individuals or entities from knowingly presenting, or causing to be presented, claims for payment from Medicare, Medicaid, or other third-party payers that are false or fraudulent;

● the federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, or HIPAA, which created new federal criminal statutes that prohibit executing a scheme to defraud any healthcare benefit program and making false statements relating to healthcare matters;

● the federal transparency laws, including the federal Physician Payment Sunshine Act, that requires drug manufacturers to disclose payments and other transfers of value provided to physicians and teaching hospitals;

● HIPAA, as amended by HITECH and its implementing regulations, which imposes certain requirements relating to the privacy, security and transmission of individually identifiable health information; and

● state law equivalents of each of the above federal laws, such as anti-kickback and false claims laws which may apply to items or services reimbursed by any third-party payer, including commercial insurers, and state laws governing the privacy and security of health information in certain circumstances, many of which differ from each other in significant ways and may not have the same effect, thus complicating compliance efforts.

The Healthcare Reform Law broadened the reach of the fraud and abuse laws by, among other things, amending the intent requirement of the federal Anti-Kickback Statute and the applicable criminal healthcare fraud statutes contained within 42 U.S.C. § 1320a-7b, effective March 23, 2010. Pursuant to the statutory amendment, a person or entity no longer needs to have actual knowledge of this statute or specific intent to violate it in order to have committed a violation. In addition, the Healthcare Reform Law provides that the government may assert that a claim including items or services resulting from a violation of the federal Anti-Kickback Statute constitutes a false or fraudulent claim for purposes of the civil False Claims Act (discussed below) or the civil monetary penalties statute. Many states have adopted laws similar to the federal Anti-Kickback Statute, some of which apply to the referral of patients for healthcare items or services reimbursed by any source, not only the Medicare and Medicaid programs.

------

We are also subject to the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, or FCPA, which prohibits improper payments or offers of payments to foreign governments and their officials for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business.

Safeguards we implement to discourage improper payments or offers of payments by our employees, consultants, and others may be ineffective, and violations of the FCPA and similar laws may result in severe criminal or civil sanctions, or other liabilities or proceedings against us, any of which would likely harm our reputation, business, financial condition and result of operations.

If our operations are found to be in violation of any of the laws described above or any other governmental regulations that apply to us, we may be subject to penalties, including civil and criminal penalties, exclusion from participation in government healthcare programs, such as Medicare and Medicaid and imprisonment, damages, fines and the curtailment or restructuring of our operations, any of which could adversely affect our ability to operate our business and our results of operations.

#### Labeling, Marketing and Promotion
The FDA closely regulates the labeling, marketing and promotion of drugs. While doctors are free to prescribe any drug approved by the FDA for any use, a company can only make claims relating to safety and efficacy of a drug that are consistent with FDA approval, and the Company is allowed to actively market a drug only for the particular use and treatment approved by the FDA. In addition, any claims we make for our products in advertising or promotion must be appropriately balanced with important safety information and otherwise be adequately substantiated. Failure to comply with these requirements can result in adverse publicity, warning letters, corrective advertising, injunctions and potential civil and criminal penalties. Government regulators recently have increased their scrutiny of the promotion and marketing of drugs.

#### Pediatric Research Equity Act
The Pediatric Research Equity Act (PREA) amended the FDCA to authorize the FDA to require certain research into drugs used in pediatric patients. The intent of PREA is to compel sponsors whose drugs have pediatric applicability to study those drugs in pediatric populations, rather than ignoring pediatric indications for adult indications that could be more economically desirable. The Secretary of Health and Human Services may defer or waive these requirements under specified circumstances.

#### Anti-Kickback and False Claims Laws
In the United States, the research, manufacturing, distribution, sale and promotion of drug products and medical devices are potentially subject to regulation by various federal, state and local authorities in addition to the FDA, including the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, other divisions of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (e.g., the Office of Inspector General), the U.S. Department of Justice, state Attorneys General, and other state and local government agencies. For example, sales, marketing and scientific/educational grant programs must comply with the Medicare-Medicaid Anti-Fraud and Abuse Act, as amended (the "Anti-Kickback Statute"), the False Claims Act, as amended, the privacy regulations promulgated under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, or HIPAA, and similar state laws. Pricing and rebate programs must comply with the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program requirements of the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1990, as amended, and the Veterans Health Care Act of 1992, as amended. If products are made available to authorized users of the Federal Supply Schedule of the General Services Administration, additional laws and requirements apply. All of these activities are also potentially subject to federal and state consumer protection and unfair competition laws.

In the United States, we are subject to complex laws and regulations pertaining to healthcare "fraud and abuse," including, but not limited to, the Anti-Kickback Statute, the federal False Claims Act, and other state and federal laws and regulations. The Anti-Kickback Statute makes it illegal for any person, including a prescription drug manufacturer (or a party acting on its behalf) to knowingly and willfully solicit, receive, offer, or pay any remuneration that is intended to induce the referral of business, including the purchase, order, or prescription of a particular drug, for which payment may be made under a federal healthcare program, such as Medicare or Medicaid.

------

The federal False Claims Act prohibits anyone from knowingly presenting, or causing to be presented, for payment to federal programs (including Medicare and Medicaid) claims for items or services, including drugs, that are false or fraudulent, claims for items or services not provided as claimed, or claims for medically unnecessary items or services.

There are also an increasing number of state laws that require manufacturers to make reports to states on pricing and marketing information. Many of these laws contain ambiguities as to what is required to comply with the laws. In addition, as discussed below, beginning in 2013, a similar federal requirement will require manufacturers to track and report to the federal government certain payments made to physicians and teaching hospitals made in the previous calendar year. These laws may affect our sales, marketing, and other promotional activities by imposing administrative and compliance burdens on us. In addition, given the lack of clarity with respect to these laws and their implementation, our reporting actions could be subject to the penalty provisions of the pertinent state, and soon federal, authorities.

#### Patient Protection and Affordable Health Care Act
In March 2010, the Patient Protection and Affordable Health Care Act, as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 (collectively, PPACA) was enacted, which includes measures that have or will significantly change the way health care is financed by both governmental and private insurers. The fees, discounts and other provisions of this law are expected to have a significant negative effect on the profitability of pharmaceuticals.

Many of the details regarding the implementation of PPACA are yet to be determined, and at this time, it remains unclear the full effect that PPACA would have on our business.

#### Other Regulations
We are also subject to numerous federal, state and local laws relating to such matters as safe working conditions, manufacturing practices, environmental protection, fire hazard control, and disposal of hazardous or potentially hazardous substances. We may incur significant costs to comply with such laws and regulations now or in the future.

#### Israel

#### Clinical Testing in Israel
In order to conduct clinical testing on humans in the State of Israel, special authorization must first be obtained from the ethics committee and general manager of the institution in which the clinical studies are scheduled to be conducted, as required under the Guidelines for Clinical Trials in Human Subjects implemented pursuant to the Israeli Public Health Regulations (Clinical Trials in Human Subjects) 5741-1980, as amended from time to time, and other applicable legislation. These regulations require authorization by the institutional ethics committee and general manager as well as from the Israeli Ministry of Health, except in certain circumstances, and in the case of genetic trials, special fertility trials and complex clinical trials, an additional authorization of the Ministry of Health's overseeing ethics committee. The institutional ethics committee must, among other things, evaluate the anticipated benefits that are likely to be derived from the project to determine if it justifies the risks and inconvenience to be inflicted on the human subjects, and the committee must ensure that adequate protection exists for the rights and safety of the participants as well as the accuracy of the information gathered in the course of the clinical testing. Since we perform a portion of the clinical studies on certain of our therapeutic candidates in Israel, we are required to obtain authorization from the ethics committee and general manager of each institution in which we intend to conduct our clinical trials, and in most cases, from the Israeli Ministry of Health.

#### Silexion Corporate Information
Silexion was formed on April 2, 2024 under the name Biomotion Sciences as a Cayman Islands exempted limited company for the purpose of effecting a business combination with Moringa and Silexion. On April 3, 2024, Silexion entered into the Business Combination Agreement by and among Silexion, Moringa, Silexion Israel, and Silexion's two wholly-owned subsidiaries— Merger Sub 1 and Merger Sub 2. On the Closing Date of August 15, 2024, following the approval of the Business Combination (among other matters) at Moringa's extraordinary general meeting that was held on August 6, 2024, the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement were completed. As a result, Moringa and Silexion Israel merged with Merger Sub 2 and Merger Sub 1, respectively, and became Silexion's wholly-owned subsidiaries, and their securityholders became securityholders of Silexion at previously agreed-upon exchange ratios. In addition, Silexion's ordinary shares and warrants were listed, and began trading, on the Nasdaq Global Market on August 16, 2024, and its name was changed to Silexion Therapeutics Corp. The trading of the ordinary shares and warrants was subsequently transferred to the Nasdaq Capital Market, on July 8, 2025.

#### Item 1A. Risk Factors
*Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below, together with all of the other information contained in this Annual Report, including our financial statements and related notes appearing in Part II, Item 8, and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in Part II, Item 7, before deciding to invest in our securities. If any of the events or developments identified as risks below were to come to fruition, our business, prospects, operating results and financial condition could suffer materially, the trading price of our ordinary shares could decline, and you could lose all or part of your investment. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently believe to be immaterial may also adversely affect our business.*

#### Risks Related to Our Financial Condition and Capital Requirements
***We are a development-stage company and have a limited operating history on which to assess our business. We have incurred significant losses since our inception and anticipate that we will continue to incur significant losses for the foreseeable future.***

We are a development stage company with a limited operating history focused on the discovery and development of treatments based on the emerging therapeutic modality RNA interference (RNAi), a biological process in which ribonucleic acid (RNA) molecules inhibit gene expression. Our proposed treatment, which we refer to as SIL204, consists of locally administered small interfering RNAs, or siRNA, to KRAS G12D- or KRAS G12V-mutations (G12D/V), which is the gene driver that causes development of tumors and human cancer (oncogenic). We have incurred net losses since our inception in November 2008, including net losses of $11.9 million and $16.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. As of December 31, 2025, we had an accumulated deficit of $55.2 million.

------

We have devoted substantially all of our financial resources to design and develop our product candidates, including conducting preclinical and clinical studies and providing general and administrative support for these operations. To date, we have financed our operations primarily through the sale of equity securities and through royalty-bearing grants that we received from Israel's Innovation Authority, or the IIA. The amount of our future net losses will depend, in part, on the rate of our future expenditures and our ability to obtain funding through equity or debt financings, strategic collaborations, or grants. Biopharmaceutical product development is a highly speculative undertaking and involves a substantial degree of risk. We are the early stages of clinical and preclinical development for our product candidates, we have not yet commenced pivotal clinical studies for any product candidate, and it may be several years, if ever, before we complete pivotal clinical studies and have a product candidate approved for commercialization. Even if we obtain regulatory approval to market a product candidate, our future revenue will depend upon the size of any markets in which our product candidates may receive approval, and our ability to achieve sufficient market acceptance, pricing, reimbursement from third-party payors, and adequate market share for our product candidates in those markets.

We expect to continue to incur significant expenses and increasing operating losses for the foreseeable future. We anticipate that our expenses will increase substantially if and as we:

● continue and expand our research and preclinical and clinical development of our product candidates;

● initiate additional clinical or other studies for our product candidates;

● continue to improve our quality standards and change or add additional manufacturers or suppliers;

● seek regulatory and marketing approvals for our product candidates that successfully complete clinical studies;

● establish a sales, marketing, and distribution infrastructure to commercialize any products for which we may obtain marketing approval;

● seek to identify, assess, acquire, license, and/or develop other product candidates;

● enter into license agreements;

● seek to maintain, protect, and expand our intellectual property portfolio;

● seek to attract and retain skilled personnel;

● create additional infrastructure to support our operations as a public company and our product development and planned future commercialization efforts; and

● experience any delays or encounter issues with any of the above, including but not limited to failed studies, complex results, safety issues, or other regulatory challenges that require longer follow-up of existing studies, additional major studies, or additional supportive studies in order to pursue marketing approval.

Further, the net losses we incur may fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter and year to year, such that a period-to-period comparison of our results of operations may not be a good indication of our future performance.

------

#### We have never generated any revenue from product sales and may never be profitable.
We have no products approved for commercialization and have never generated any revenue. Our ability to generate revenue and achieve profitability depends on our ability, alone or with strategic collaboration partners, to successfully complete the development of, and obtain the regulatory and marketing approvals necessary to commercialize, one or more of our product candidates. We do not anticipate generating revenue from product sales for the foreseeable future. Our ability to generate future revenue from product sales depends heavily on our success in many areas, including but not limited to:

● completing research and clinical development of our product candidates;

● obtaining regulatory and marketing approvals for our product candidates, if and when we complete clinical studies;

● developing a sustainable and scalable in-house manufacturing process, meeting all regulatory standards for approved product candidates, and in some instances, establishing and maintaining supply and manufacturing relationships with third parties that can conduct the process and provide adequate (in amount and quality) products to support clinical development and the market demand for product candidates, if approved;

● launching and commercializing product candidates, if and when we obtain regulatory and marketing approval, either directly or with a collaborator or distributor;

● exposing, educating and training physicians to use our products;

● obtaining market acceptance of our product candidates as viable treatment options;

● addressing any competing technological and market developments;

● identifying, assessing, acquiring and/or developing new product candidates;

● negotiating favorable terms in any collaboration, licensing, or other arrangements into which we may enter;

● maintaining, protecting, and expanding our portfolio of intellectual property rights, including patents, trade secrets, and know-how; and

● attracting, hiring, and retaining qualified personnel.

Even if one or more of the product candidates that we develop is approved for commercial sale, we anticipate incurring significant costs associated with commercializing any approved product candidate. Our expenses could increase beyond expectations if we are required by the FDA, the European Medicines Agency (EMA) or other regulatory agencies, domestic or foreign, or ethical committees in medical centers, to change our manufacturing processes or assays or to perform clinical, nonclinical, or other types of studies in addition to those that we currently anticipate. In cases where we are successful in obtaining regulatory approvals to market one or more of our product candidates, our revenue will be dependent, in part, upon the size of the markets in the territories for which we gain regulatory approval, the accepted price for the product, the ability to get reimbursement at any price, and whether we own the commercial rights for that territory. If the number of our addressable disease patients is not as significant as we estimate, the indication approved by regulatory authorities is narrower than we expect, or the reasonably accepted population for treatment is narrowed by competition, physician choice or treatment guidelines, we may not generate significant revenue from sales of such products, even if approved. Additionally, there might be changes in supply or other changes in the approved drugs of which our products will be administrated in combination, where such changes can affect our revenues. Further, if we are not able to generate revenue from the sale of any approved products, we may be forced to cease operations.

------

***We will need to raise substantial additional funding before we can expect to become profitable from product sales. This additional financing may not be available on acceptable terms, or at all. Failure to obtain this necessary capital when needed may force us to delay, limit, or terminate our product development efforts or other operations.***

We are currently advancing our SIL204 platform product through preclinical and clinical development. Developing our product candidates is expensive, and we expect our research and development expenses to increase substantially in connection with our ongoing activities, particularly as we advance our product candidates through clinical studies.

If our product candidates enter and advance through clinical trials, we will need substantial additional funds to expand our development, regulatory, manufacturing, marketing and sales capabilities or contract with other organizations to provide those capabilities for us. We have used substantial funds to develop our product candidates and delivery technologies and will require significant funds to conduct further research and development and clinical trials of our product candidates, to seek regulatory approvals for our product candidates and to manufacture and market products, if any, which are approved for commercial sale.

As of December 31, 2025, our cash and cash equivalents were $6.0 million. Based upon our then-expected level of operating expenditures, we have substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern as of such date. Please see the risk factor below titled "*Our independent registered public accounting firm's report contains an explanatory paragraph*..." Beyond requiring funding for our activities for the next 12 months, we furthermore expect that we will require substantial additional capital to advance manufacturing capabilities for, to obtain regulatory approval for, and to commercialize, our product candidates. In addition, our operating plans may change as a result of many factors that may currently be unknown to us, and we may need to seek additional funds sooner than planned. Our future funding requirements will depend on many factors, including but not limited to:

● the scope, rate of progress, results and cost of our clinical studies and other related activities;

● the cost of manufacturing clinical supplies, and establishing commercial supplies of our product candidates and any future products;

● the number and characteristics of product candidates that we pursue;

● the cost, timing, and outcomes of regulatory approvals;

● the cost and timing of establishing sales, marketing, and distribution capabilities; and

● the terms and timing of any collaborative, licensing, and other arrangements that we may establish.

Any additional fundraising efforts may divert our management from our day-to-day activities, which may adversely affect our abilities to develop and commercialize our product candidates. In addition, we cannot guarantee that future financing will be available in sufficient amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. Moreover, the terms of any financing may adversely affect the holdings or the rights of our shareholders, and the issuance of additional securities, whether equity or debt, by us, or the possibility of such issuance, may cause the market price of our ordinary shares to decline due to expected or actual dilution. The incurrence of indebtedness could result in increased fixed payment obligations, and we may be required to agree to certain restrictive covenants, such as limitations on our ability to incur additional debt, limitations on our ability to acquire, sell, or license intellectual property rights, and other operating restrictions that could adversely impact our ability to conduct our business. We could also be required to seek funds through arrangements with collaborative partners or otherwise at an earlier stage than otherwise would be desirable, and we may be required to relinquish rights to some of our technologies or product candidates or otherwise agree to terms unfavorable to it, any of which may have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, and prospects. Even if we believe we have sufficient funds for our current or future operating plans, we may seek additional capital if market conditions are favorable or if we have specific strategic considerations.

------

If we are unable to obtain funding on a timely basis, we may be required to significantly curtail, delay, or discontinue one or more of our research, development or manufacturing programs or the commercialization of any product candidates, or be unable to expand our operations or otherwise capitalize on our business opportunities, as desired, which could materially affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

#### Our independent registered public accounting firm's report contains an explanatory paragraph that expresses substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a "going concern."
We have limited cash resources and will need to obtain additional funds in order to satisfy our liquidity needs. We will require significant funds to conduct further research and development and preclinical testing and clinical trials of our product candidates, to seek regulatory approvals for our product candidates and to manufacture and market products, if any, which are approved for commercial sale. In light of our significant working capital needs and the absence of any committed source of financing to meet those needs, there may be substantial doubt raised about our ability to continue as a "going concern." Please see the explanatory paragraph under the heading "*Substantial Doubt about the Company's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern*" in our independent auditors' report on our financial statements that appear in this Annual Report. Those financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from our inability to continue as a "going concern."

***The historical financial results included in this Annual Report may not be indicative of what our future financial position or results of operations may be.***

Our historical financial results included in this Annual Report do not necessarily reflect the financial condition, results of operations or cash flows that we will achieve in the future. Our financial condition and future results of operations could be materially different from amounts reflected in certain of our historical financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report, and it may be difficult for investors to compare our future results to historical results or to evaluate our relative performance or trends in our business. For example, some of our operating expenses may vary from the historical information included in this Annual Report due to larger expenses as we initiate or continue clinical studies. As a further example, we may not incur some of the same non-cash financial expenses related to equity grants that we incurred in the year ended December 31, 2024 in other annual periods, as those largely related to the Closing of the Business Combination, which was a one-time event in the history of our company.

#### Risks Related to the Research and Development of Our Product Candidates

#### The approach we are taking to discover and develop novel RNAi therapeutics is unproven for oncology and may never lead to marketable products.
We have concentrated our efforts and therapeutic product research on RNAi technology, and RNAi drug delivery, and our future success depends on the successful development of this technology and products based on it. We have not received regulatory approval to market therapeutics utilizing RNAi based drugs, including siRNAs, the class of molecule we are trying to develop into products. The scientific discoveries that form the basis for our efforts to discover and develop new drugs are relatively new. The scientific evidence to support the feasibility of developing drugs and the delivery of such drugs based on these discoveries is both preliminary and limited. Skepticism as to the feasibility of developing RNAi therapeutics for oncology has been expressed in scientific literature. For example, there are potential challenges to achieving safe RNAi therapeutics based on the so-called off-target effects and activation of the interferon response, and other potential challenges to achieve safe and potent levels of RNAi drugs due to complications associated with drug delivery. In addition, decisions by other companies with respect to their RNAi development efforts may increase skepticism in the marketplace regarding the potential for RNAi therapeutics.

------

Relatively few product candidates based on these discoveries have ever been tested in animals or humans. siRNAs may not naturally possess the inherent properties typically required of drugs, such as the ability to be stable in the body long enough to reach the tissues in which their effects are required, or the ability to enter cells within these tissues in order to exert their effects. We currently have only limited data, and no conclusive evidence, to suggest that we can introduce these drug-like properties into siRNAs. We may spend large amounts of money trying to introduce these properties, and may never succeed in doing so. In addition, these compounds may not demonstrate in patients the chemical and pharmacological properties ascribed to them in laboratory studies, and they may interact with human biological systems in unforeseen, ineffective or harmful ways. As a result, we may never succeed in developing a marketable product, we may not become profitable, and the value of our ordinary shares may decline.

The FDA has relatively limited experience with RNAi and siRNA based therapeutics. There have been a limited number of approvals granted to any person or entity, including us, to market and commercialize therapeutics using RNAi-based drugs, including siRNA, which may increase the complexity, uncertainty and length of the regulatory approval process for our product candidates. Further, siRNA therapies are part of a broader therapeutic category called oligonueciotides, and there are only a few approved drugs based on this therapeutic category. We may never receive approval to market and commercialize any product candidate.

Further, our focus on RNAi technology for developing drugs, as opposed to multiple, more proven technologies for drug development, increases the risks associated with the ownership of our ordinary shares. If we are not successful in developing a product candidate using RNAi technology, we may be required to change the scope and direction of our product development activities. In that case, we may not be able to identify and implement successfully an alternative product development strategy.

***We are heavily dependent on the success of our product candidates, which are in the early stages of preclinical or clinical development. We cannot give any assurance that any of our product candidates will receive regulatory approval, which is necessary before they can be commercialized.***

To date, we have invested a substantial amount of our efforts and financial resources to: (i) identify and develop our product candidates, including conducting preclinical and clinical studies and providing general and administrative support for these operations; and (ii) develop and secure our intellectual property portfolio for our product candidates. Our future success is dependent on our ability to successfully develop, obtain regulatory approval for, and then successfully commercialize, one or more product candidates. We currently generate no revenue from sales of any drugs or technology platforms, and we may never be able to develop or commercialize a marketable drug.

Each of our product candidates is in the early stages of development and will require additional clinical development (and in some cases additional preclinical development), management of nonclinical, clinical and manufacturing activities, regulatory approval, obtaining adequate manufacturing supply, building of a commercial organization, and significant marketing efforts before we generate any revenue from product sales. We have concluded a Phase 2 study on first-generation Loder and moved on to SIL204. We expect to initiate the next clinical trial with SIL204 during the second quarter of 2026 for locally advanced pancreatic cancer. We are not permitted to market or promote any of our product candidates before we receive regulatory approval from the FDA or comparable foreign regulatory authorities, and we may never receive such regulatory approval for any of our product candidates.

We have never submitted marketing applications to the FDA or comparable foreign regulatory authorities. We cannot be certain that any of our product candidates will be successful in clinical studies or receive regulatory approval. Further, our product candidates may not receive regulatory approval even if they are successful in clinical studies. If we do not receive regulatory approvals for our product candidates, we may not be able to continue our operations.

We generally plan to seek regulatory approval to commercialize our product candidates in the United States, the EU and in additional foreign countries. To obtain regulatory approval in other countries, we must comply with numerous and varying regulatory requirements of such other countries regarding safety, efficacy, chemistry, manufacturing and controls, clinical studies, commercial sales, pricing, and distribution of our product candidates. Even if we are successful in obtaining approval in one jurisdiction, we cannot ensure that we will obtain approval in any other jurisdictions. If we are unable to obtain approval for our product candidates in multiple jurisdictions, our revenue and results of operations could be negatively affected.

------

***The regulatory approval processes of the FDA and comparable foreign authorities are lengthy, time consuming, and inherently unpredictable. If we are ultimately unable to obtain regulatory approval for our product candidates, our business will be substantially harmed.***

The time required to develop a drug and obtain approval by the FDA and comparable foreign authorities is unpredictable, typically takes many years following the commencement of clinical studies, and depends upon numerous factors. In addition, approval policies, regulations, or the type and amount of clinical data necessary to gain approval may change during the course of a product candidate's clinical development and may vary among jurisdictions, which may cause delays in the approval or the decision not to approve an application. We have not obtained regulatory approval for any product candidate, and it is possible that none of our existing product candidates or any product candidates we may seek to develop in the future will ever obtain regulatory approval.

Applications for our product candidates could fail to receive regulatory approval for many reasons, including but not limited to the following:

● the FDA or comparable foreign regulatory authorities may disagree with the design or implementation of our clinical studies;

● we may be unable to demonstrate to the FDA or comparable foreign regulatory authorities that a product candidate's benefit to risk ratio for our proposed indication is acceptable;

● the population studied in the clinical program may not be sufficiently broad or representative to assure safety in the full population for which we seek approval;

● the FDA or comparable foreign regulatory authorities may disagree with our interpretation of data from preclinical studies or clinical studies;

● the data collected from clinical studies of our product candidates may not be sufficient to support the submission of a new drug application (NDA) or a biologics license application (BLA) or other submission or to obtain regulatory approval in the United States or elsewhere;

● the FDA or comparable foreign regulatory authorities may fail to approve the manufacturing processes, test procedures and specifications, or facilities of third-party manufacturers with which we contract for clinical and commercial supplies; and

● the approval policies or regulations of the FDA or comparable foreign regulatory authorities may significantly change in a manner rendering our clinical data insufficient for approval.

This lengthy development and approval process, as well as the unpredictability of the results of clinical studies, may result in our failing to obtain regulatory approval to market any of our product candidates, which would significantly harm our business, and our consolidated results of operations and prospects.

***Clinical drug development involves a lengthy and expensive process with an uncertain outcome, and results of preclinical activity or earlier studies may not be predictive of future study results.***

Before obtaining marketing approval from regulatory authorities for the sale of our product candidates, we must conduct extensive clinical studies to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of the product candidates in humans. Clinical testing is expensive and can take many years to complete, and its outcome is inherently uncertain. Failure can occur at any time during the clinical study process. The results of preclinical studies and early clinical studies of product candidates often are not predictive of the results of later-stage clinical studies. In general, even product candidates that have shown promising results in preclinical activities or early-stage clinical studies may still suffer significant setbacks in subsequent clinical studies. For example, the safety or efficacy results generated to date in preclinical and clinical studies for siG12DLoder or preclinical studies with SIL204 do not ensure that later clinical studies will demonstrate similar results. There is a high failure rate for drugs and biologics proceeding through clinical studies, and product candidates in later stages of clinical studies may fail to show the desired safety and efficacy traits despite having progressed through preclinical studies and initial clinical studies. A number of companies in the biopharmaceutical industry have suffered significant setbacks in advanced clinical studies due to lack of efficacy or adverse safety profiles, notwithstanding promising results in earlier studies. Moreover, preclinical and clinical data are often susceptible to varying interpretations and analyses. We do not know whether any Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3 or other clinical studies we may conduct will demonstrate consistent or adequate efficacy and safety sufficient to obtain regulatory approval to market our product candidates.

------

Events that may prevent successful or timely completion of clinical development include but are not limited to:

● delays in reaching a consensus with regulatory agencies on study design;

● delays in reaching agreement on acceptable terms with prospective contract research organizations (CROs) and clinical study sites, the terms of which can be subject to extensive negotiation and may vary significantly among different CROs and clinical study sites;

● delays in obtaining required Institutional Review Board (IRB) or Ethics Committee approval at each clinical study site;

● imposition of a clinical hold by regulatory agencies, after review of an investigational new drug (IND) application, or equivalent application, or an inspection of our clinical study operations or study sites;

● difficulty collaborating with patient groups and investigators;

● failure by our CROs, other third parties, or us to adhere to clinical study requirements;

● failure to perform in accordance with the FDA's good clinical practices requirements or applicable regulatory guidelines in other countries;

● occurrence of serious adverse events associated with the product candidate that are viewed to outweigh its potential benefits;

● the cost of clinical studies of our drug candidates being greater than we anticipate;

● clinical studies of our drug candidates producing negative or inconclusive results, which may result in our deciding, or regulators requiring us, to conduct additional clinical studies or abandon drug development programs; and

● failures associated with data interpretation, data management and data storage of such studies.

If we ultimately are unable to successfully complete clinical development of our product candidates, we would be forced to cease operations. Clinical study delays could also shorten any periods during which our products have patent protection and may allow our competitors to bring products to market before we do, which could impair our ability to obtain orphan exclusivity and to successfully commercialize our product candidates.

------

***We may find it difficult to enroll patients in our clinical studies. Difficulty in enrolling patients could delay or prevent clinical studies of our product candidates.***

Identifying and qualifying patients to participate in clinical studies of our product candidates is critical to our success. The timing of our clinical studies depends in part on the speed at which we can recruit patients to participate in testing our product candidates, and we may experience delays in our clinical studies if we encounter difficulties in enrollment.

Some of the conditions for which we plan to evaluate our current product candidates are relatively rare diseases. For example, according to the National Cancer Institute, approximately 61,000 patients were diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in the U.S. in 2020. Accordingly, there are limited patient pools from which to draw for clinical studies. In addition to the relative rarity of these diseases, the eligibility criteria of our clinical studies will further limit the pool of available study participants as we will require that patients have specific characteristics that we can measure or to assure their disease is either severe enough or not too advanced to include them in a study. We also may not be able to identify, recruit, and enroll a sufficient number of patients to complete our clinical studies because of the perceived risks and benefits of the product candidate under study, the availability and efficacy of competing therapies and clinical studies, the proximity and availability of clinical study sites for prospective patients, and the patient referral practices of physicians.

In addition, even for the more prevalent diseases which we target, such as prostate and breast cancer, enrolling patients in our clinical studies may be difficult. There may be several ongoing clinical studies for these diseases (both RNAi based and otherwise), and we may face competition in enrolling patients. The number of patients in such clinical studies might be significantly large. In addition, the time period required to achieve indications of safety and efficacy in such studies may be very long. Some of these competing studies may be conducted by other biopharmaceutical companies with more experience in clinical testing and with much greater financial, technical and human resources than we have.

If patients are unwilling to participate in our studies for any reason, the timeline for recruiting patients, conducting studies, and obtaining regulatory approval of our potential products will be delayed.

***Our product candidates and the administration of our product candidates may cause undesirable side effects or have other properties that could delay or prevent their regulatory approval, limit the commercial profile of an approved label, or result in significant negative consequences following marketing approval, if any.***

Undesirable side effects including toxicology caused by our product candidates could cause us or regulatory authorities to interrupt, delay, or halt clinical studies and could result in a more restrictive label or the delay or denial of regulatory approval by the FDA or other comparable foreign authorities. For example, there are known immune stimulation and other side effects associated with RNAi. The implantation of SIL204 may entail the use of endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) needles, which may cause pancreatitis, bleeding or other procedural related safety issues. The Phase 2 clinical study with siG12DLoder indicated that Loder treatment was well tolerated. Safety events that were observed were primarily related to procedure, mainly reversible abdominal pain. In addition, the presence of a foreign body such as our SIL204 in human tissue may cause inflammation. Results of our studies could reveal a high and unacceptable severity and prevalence of these or other side effects. In such an event, such studies could be suspended or terminated, and the FDA or comparable foreign regulatory authorities could order us to cease further development of or deny or withdraw approval of our product candidates for any or all targeted indications.

The drug-related, drug-product related, and administration related side effects could affect patient recruitment, the ability of enrolled patients to complete the study, or result in potential product liability claims. We do not currently have product liability insurance and do not anticipate obtaining product liability insurance until such time as we have received FDA or other comparable foreign authority approval for a product and there is a product that is being provided to patients outside of clinical trials.

------

Additionally, if one or more of our product candidates receives marketing approval, and we or others later identify undesirable side effects caused by such products, a number of potentially significant negative consequences could result, including but not limited to:

● regulatory authorities may withdraw approvals of such products;

● regulatory authorities may require additional warnings on the labels;

● we may be required to create a Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy (REMS) plan or similar plan in other jurisdictions, which could include a medication guide outlining the risks of such side effects for distribution to patients, a communication plan for healthcare providers, and/or other elements to assure safe use;

● we could be sued and held liable for harm caused to patients; and

● our reputation may suffer.

Any of these events could prevent us from achieving or maintaining market acceptance of the particular product candidate, if approved, and could significantly harm our business, results of operations, and prospects.

#### Even if we obtain regulatory approval for a product candidate, the related product will remain subject to regulatory scrutiny.
If a product candidate of ours is approved, it will be subject to ongoing regulatory requirements for manufacturing, labeling, packaging, storage, advertising, promotion, sampling, record-keeping, conduct of post-marketing studies, and submission of safety, efficacy, and other post-market information, including both federal and state requirements in the United States and other jurisdictions, where the product might be marketed. Accordingly, we and others with whom we work must continue to expend time, money, and effort in all areas of regulatory compliance, including manufacturing, production, and quality control.

Any regulatory approvals that we receive for a product candidate may also be subject to limitations on the approved indicated uses for which the product may be marketed or to the conditions of approval, or contain requirements for potentially costly post-marketing testing, including Phase 4 clinical trials, and surveillance to monitor the safety and efficacy of the product candidate. We will also be required to report certain adverse reactions and production problems, if any, to the FDA, and to comply with requirements concerning advertising and promotion for our product. Promotional communications with respect to prescription drugs are subject to a variety of legal and regulatory restrictions and must be consistent with the information in the product's approved label. As such, we may not promote our product for indications or uses for which it does not have FDA approval. The holder of an approved NDA or BLA must also submit new or supplemental applications and obtain FDA approval for certain changes to the approved product, product labeling, or manufacturing process. We could also be asked to conduct post-marketing clinical studies to verify the safety and efficacy of our product in general or in specific patient subsets. If we obtain original marketing approval via the accelerated approval pathway, we could be required to conduct a successful post-marketing clinical study to confirm clinical benefit for our product. An unsuccessful post-marketing study or failure to complete such a study could result in the withdrawal of marketing approval. Furthermore, any new legislation addressing drug safety issues could result in delays in product development or commercialization or increased costs to assure compliance. Foreign regulatory authorities impose similar requirements.

------

If a regulatory agency discovers previously unknown problems with a product, such as adverse events of unanticipated severity or frequency, or disagrees with the promotion, marketing or labeling of a product, such regulatory agency may impose restrictions on that product or us, including requiring withdrawal of the product from the market. If we fail to comply with applicable regulatory requirements, a regulatory agency or enforcement authority may, among other things:

● issue warning letters;

● impose civil or criminal penalties;

● suspend or withdraw regulatory approval;

● suspend any of our ongoing clinical studies;

● refuse to approve pending applications or supplements to approved applications submitted by us; or

● seize or detain a product, or require a product recall.

Any government investigation of alleged violations of law could require us to expend significant time and resources in response, and could generate negative publicity. Any failure to comply with ongoing regulatory requirements may significantly and adversely affect our ability to commercialize and generate revenue from our products. If regulatory sanctions are applied or if regulatory approval is withdrawn, the value of our company and the results of our operations will be adversely affected.

#### The FDA and other regulatory agencies actively enforce the laws and regulations prohibiting the promotion of off-label uses.
If any of our product candidates is approved and is found to have been improperly promoted for unapproved uses, we may become subject to significant liability. The FDA and other regulatory agencies or other governmental bodies strictly regulate the promotional claims that may be made about prescription products, such as our product candidates, if approved. In particular, a product may not be promoted for uses that are not approved by the FDA or such other regulatory agencies as reflected in the product's approved labeling. If we receive marketing approval for a product candidate, physicians may nevertheless prescribe it to their patients in a manner that is inconsistent with the approved label. If we are found to have promoted such unapproved, or off-label, uses, we may become subject to significant liability. The U.S. federal government has levied large civil and criminal fines against companies for alleged improper promotion of off-label use and has enjoined several companies from engaging in off-label promotion. The FDA has also requested that companies enter into consent decrees or permanent injunctions under which specified promotional conduct is changed or curtailed. If we cannot successfully manage the promotion of our product candidates, if approved, we could become subject to significant liability, which would materially adversely affect our business and financial condition.

***We and our collaborators are subject to significant regulation with respect to manufacturing our product candidates. The facilities we subcontract to for manufacturing may not meet regulatory requirements and may have limited capacity.***

All entities involved in the preparation of therapeutics for clinical studies or commercial sale are subject to extensive regulation. Components of a finished therapeutic product approved for commercial sale or used in late-stage clinical studies must be manufactured in accordance with current GMP (cGMP) or, in other countries, GMP. These regulations govern manufacturing processes and procedures (including record keeping) and the implementation and operation of quality systems to control and assure the quality of investigational products and products approved for sale. Poor control of production processes can lead to the introduction of contaminants or to inadvertent changes in the properties or stability of our product candidates that may not be detectable in final product testing. We, our collaborators, or any contract manufacturers must supply all necessary documentation in support of an NDA, BLA, or Marketing Authorization Application (MAA) on a timely basis and must adhere to Good Laboratory Practices (GLP) and cGMP/GMP regulations enforced by the FDA and other regulatory agencies through their facilities and data and documentation inspection programs. We have never produced a commercially approved pharmaceutical product and therefore have not obtained the requisite regulatory authority approvals to do so. Our facilities and quality systems, and those of our collaborators and any third-party contractors, must pass a pre-approval inspection for compliance with the applicable regulations as a condition of regulatory approval of our product candidates or any of our other potential products. In addition, the regulatory authorities may, at any time, inspect a manufacturing facility involved with the preparation of our product candidates or our other potential products or the associated quality systems for compliance with the regulations applicable to the activities being conducted. If these facilities do not pass a preapproval plant inspection, regulatory approval of the products may not be granted or may be substantially delayed until any violations are corrected to the satisfaction of the regulatory authority, if ever.

------

The regulatory authorities also may, at any time following approval of a product for sale, audit a manufacturing facility. If any such inspection or audit identifies a failure to comply with applicable regulations or if a violation of our product specifications or applicable regulations occurs independent of such an inspection or audit, we or the relevant regulatory authority may require remedial measures that may be costly and/or time consuming for us or a third party to implement, and that may include the temporary or permanent suspension of a clinical study or commercial sales or the temporary or permanent closure of a facility. Any such remedial measures imposed upon us, or third parties with whom we contract, could materially harm our business.

If we, our collaborators, or any of our third-party manufacturers fail to maintain regulatory compliance, the FDA or other applicable regulatory authorities can impose regulatory sanctions including, among other things, refusal to approve a pending application for a new drug product or biologic product, withdrawal of an approval, or suspension of production. As a result, our business, financial condition, and results of operations may be materially harmed.

These factors could cause us to incur higher costs and could cause the delay or termination of clinical studies, regulatory submissions, required approvals, or commercialization of our product candidates.

#### We are subject to a multitude of manufacturing risks, any of which could substantially increase our costs and limit supply of our product candidates.
The process of manufacturing our product candidates is complex, highly regulated, and subject to several risks, including but not limited to:

● the process of manufacturing RNAi-drugs, drug substances, and RNAi-delivery vehicles, such as our product candidates, is extremely susceptible to product loss due to contamination, equipment failure or improper installation or operation of equipment, or vendor or operator error. Even minor deviations from normal manufacturing processes for any of our product candidates could result in reduced production yields, product defects, and other supply disruptions. If microbial, viral, or other contaminations are discovered in our product candidates or in the manufacturing facilities in which our product candidates are made, such manufacturing facilities may need to be closed for an extended period of time to investigate and remedy the contamination; and

● the manufacturing facilities in which our product candidates are made could be adversely affected by equipment failures, labor shortages, natural disasters, power failures, or numerous other factors.

Any adverse developments affecting manufacturing operations for our product candidates may result in shipment delays, inventory shortages, lot failures, withdrawals or recalls, or other interruptions in the supply of our product candidates. We may also have to take inventory write-offs and incur other charges and expenses for product candidates that fail to meet specifications, undertake costly remediation efforts, or seek more costly manufacturing alternatives.

------

#### Risks Related to Our Reliance on Third Parties
***We rely on third parties to conduct our preclinical and clinical studies and perform other tasks for us. If these third parties do not successfully carry out their contractual duties, meet expected deadlines, or comply with regulatory requirements, we may not be able to obtain regulatory approval for or commercialize our product candidates, and our business could be substantially harmed.***

We have relied upon and plan to continue to rely upon third-party CROs to monitor and manage data for our ongoing preclinical and clinical programs. We rely on these parties for execution of our preclinical and clinical studies, and control only certain aspects of their activities. Nevertheless, we are responsible for ensuring that each of our studies is conducted in accordance with the applicable protocol, legal, regulatory, and scientific standards, and our reliance on the CROs does not relieve us of our regulatory responsibilities. We and our CROs and other vendors are required to comply with cGMP and GLP, which are regulations and guidelines enforced by the FDA, the Competent Authorities of the Member States of the European Economic Area (EEA) and comparable foreign regulatory authorities for all of our product candidates in clinical development. Regulatory authorities enforce these regulations through periodic inspections of study sponsors, principal and other investigators, study sites, and other contractors. If we or any of our CROs or vendors fail to comply with applicable regulations, the clinical data generated in our clinical studies may be deemed unreliable, and the FDA, EMA, or comparable foreign regulatory authorities may require us to perform additional clinical studies before approving our marketing applications. We cannot assure you that upon inspection by a given regulatory authority, such regulatory authority will determine that any of our clinical studies comply with Good Clinical Practices (GCP) regulations. In addition, our clinical studies must be conducted with product produced under cGMP/GMP regulations. Our failure to comply with these regulations may require us to repeat clinical studies, which would delay the regulatory approval process.

If any of our relationships with these third-party CROs terminate, we may not be able to enter into arrangements with alternative CROs or do so on commercially reasonable terms. In addition, our CROs are not our employees, and, except for remedies available to us under our agreements with such CROs, we cannot control whether or not they devote sufficient time and resources to our ongoing clinical, nonclinical, and preclinical programs. If CROs do not successfully carry out their contractual duties or obligations or meet expected deadlines, if they need to be replaced or if the quality or accuracy of the clinical data they obtain is compromised due to the failure to adhere to our clinical protocols, regulatory requirements, or for other reasons, our clinical studies may be extended, delayed, or terminated, and we may not be able to obtain regulatory approval for or successfully commercialize our product candidates. CROs may also generate higher costs than anticipated. As a result, our results of operations and the commercial prospects for our product candidates would be harmed, our costs could increase, and our ability to generate revenue could be delayed.

Switching or adding additional CROs involves additional costs and requires management time and focus. In addition, there is a natural transition period when a new CRO commences work. As a result, delays occur, which can materially impact our ability to meet our desired clinical development timelines. Though we carefully manage our relationships with our CROs, there can be no assurance that we will not encounter similar challenges or delays in the future or that these delays or challenges will not have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition, and prospects.

***We currently rely on third parties to manufacture the raw materials and products that we use to create our product candidates and to supply us with the medical devices used to administer such product candidates. This reliance requires us to share our trade secrets with these third parties, which increases the possibility that a competitor will discover them or that our trade secrets will be misappropriated or disclosed.***

Because we rely on third parties to provide us with the materials that we use to develop and manufacture our product candidates, we may, at times, share trade secrets with such third parties. We seek to protect our proprietary technology in part by entering into confidentiality agreements and, if applicable, material transfer agreements, collaborative research agreements, consulting agreements, or other similar agreements with our collaborators, advisors, employees, and consultants prior to beginning research or disclosing proprietary information. These agreements typically limit the rights of the third parties to use or disclose our confidential information, such as trade secrets. Despite the contractual provisions employed when working with third parties, the need to share trade secrets and other confidential information increases the risk that such trade secrets become known by our competitors, are inadvertently incorporated into the technology of others, or are disclosed or used in violation of these agreements. Given that our proprietary position is based, in part, on our know- how and trade secrets, a competitor's discovery of our trade secrets or other unauthorized use or disclosure would impair our competitive position and may have a material adverse effect on our business.

------

***Our reliance on third parties to manufacture the raw materials and products that are used to create our product candidates and to supply us with the medical devices used to administer such product candidates might cause our business harm if manufacturers fail to provide us with sufficient quantities of these materials and products or fail to do so at acceptable quality levels or prices.***

We do not currently have the infrastructure or capability internally to develop the raw materials and other products that we use to manufacture our product candidates, and we lack the resources and the capability to manufacture the medical devices which we use to administer our product candidates. There are a limited number of suppliers for these raw materials, products and devices, and there may be a need to identify alternate suppliers to prevent a possible disruption to our clinical studies, and, if approved, ultimately for commercial sale. We cannot assure you that we will be able to identify alternate suppliers if the need arises at acceptable quality levels or prices.

#### Risks Related to Commercialization of Our Product Candidates
***If the market opportunities for our product candidates are smaller than we believe they are, our revenue may be adversely affected, and our business may suffer. Because some of the target patient populations of our product candidates are small, we must be able to successfully identify patients and achieve a significant market share to maintain profitability and growth.***

We focus a substantial part of our research and product development on treatments for locally advanced pancreatic cancer with certain specific mutations. Given the small number of patients who have this disease with these mutations, it is critical to our ability to grow and become profitable that we continue to successfully identify effected patients. Our projections of both the number of people who have these diseases, as well as the subset of people with these diseases who have the potential to benefit from treatment with our product candidates, are based on our beliefs and estimates. These estimates have been derived from a variety of sources, including scientific literature, surveys of clinics, patient foundations, or market research, and may prove to be incorrect. Further, new studies may change the estimated incidence or prevalence of these diseases. The number of patients may turn out to be lower than expected. The effort to identify patients with diseases we seek to treat is in its early stages, and we cannot accurately predict the number of patients for whom treatment might be possible. Additionally, the potentially addressable patient population for each of our product candidates may be limited or may not be amenable to treatment with our product candidates, and new patients may become increasingly difficult to identify or gain access to, which would adversely affect our results of operations and business.

***We do not have experience producing our product candidates at commercial levels and may not achieve the necessary regulatory approvals or produce product candidates at the quality, quantities, locations, and timing needed to support commercialization. Additionally, we intend to rely on third-party manufacturers to produce the raw materials and products that we use to manufacture our product candidates, but we have not entered into binding agreements with any such manufacturers to support commercialization.***

We do not currently have the experience or ability to produce product candidates at commercial levels. We may run into technical or scientific issues related to manufacturing or development that we may be unable to resolve in a timely manner or with available funds. We also have not completed all of the characterization and validation activities necessary for commercialization and regulatory approvals. If we do not conduct all such necessary activities, our commercialization efforts will be harmed.

Although we intend to rely on third-party manufacturers for the raw materials and products to support our own manufacturing of our product candidates for commercialization, we have not yet entered into agreements with such manufacturers. We may be unable to negotiate binding agreements with the manufacturers to support our commercialization activities at commercially reasonable terms. Additionally, these third-party manufacturers may not be able to supply us with the necessary quantities of these raw materials and products to support our own manufacturing process, or in compliance with cGMP or other pertinent regulatory requirements, and within our planned timeframe and cost parameters, and the development and sales of our products, if approved, may be materially harmed.

------

***We face intense competition and rapid technological change and the possibility that our competitors may develop therapies that are similar, more advanced, or more effective than ours, which may adversely affect our financial condition and our ability to successfully commercialize our product candidates.***

The biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries are intensely competitive and subject to rapid and significant technological change. We are currently aware of various existing therapies in the market and in development that may in the future compete with our product candidates. For example, there are an increasing number of companies commercializing treatments and/or developing programs specifically targeting KRAS mutations, including KRAS G12D and KRAS G12V, in a variety of manners and for a variety of indications, including cancer, including Bristol-Myers Squibb Company (through the recently acquired Mirati Therapeutics, Inc.), Revolution Medicines, Inc., AstraZeneca (in collaboration with Usynova), Boehringer and Gilead. Smaller and other early-stage companies may also prove to be significant competitors. Treatments for cancer currently include surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, hormone therapy, immunotherapy and combined treatment modalities such as chemo-radiotherapy. Other approaches may also emerge for the treatment of any of the disease areas in which we focus.

We have competitors both in the United States and internationally, including major multinational pharmaceutical companies, specialty pharmaceutical companies, and biotechnology companies. Our competitors may succeed in developing, acquiring, or licensing on an exclusive basis, products that are more effective or less costly than any product candidate that we may develop, or achieve earlier patent protection, regulatory approval, product commercialization, and market penetration than we do. Additionally, technologies developed by our competitors may render our potential product candidates uneconomical or obsolete, and we may not be successful in marketing our product candidates when competing against the products of competitors.

***We currently have no marketing and sales organization. If we are unable to establish sales and marketing capabilities or enter into agreements with third parties to market and sell our product candidates, we may be unable to generate any revenue.***

We as a company have no experience selling and marketing our product candidates, and currently have no marketing or sales organization. To successfully commercialize any products that may result from our development programs, we will need to develop these capabilities, either on our own or with others. If our product candidates receive regulatory approval, we intend to establish a sales and marketing organization with technical expertise and supporting distribution capabilities to commercialize our product candidates in major markets, which will be expensive, difficult, and time consuming. Any failure or delay in the development of our internal sales, marketing, and distribution capabilities would adversely impact the commercialization of our products.

Further, given our lack of prior experience in marketing and selling biopharmaceutical products, our initial estimate of the size of the required sales force may be materially more or less than the size of the sales force actually required to effectively commercialize our product candidates. As such, we may be required to fire some of the personnel that we hire for the commercialization of our product candidates, or we may incur excess costs as a result of hiring more sales representatives than necessary. With respect to certain geographical markets, we may enter into collaborations with other entities to utilize their local marketing and distribution capabilities, but we may be unable to enter into such agreements on favorable terms, if at all. If our future collaborators do not commit sufficient resources to commercialize our future products, if any, and we are unable to develop the necessary marketing capabilities on our own, we will be unable to generate sufficient product revenue to sustain our business. We may be competing with companies that currently have extensive and well-funded marketing and sales operations. Without an internal team or the support of a third party to perform marketing and sales functions, we may be unable to compete successfully against these more established companies.

------

***The market may not be receptive to our product candidates based on a novel therapeutic modality, and we may not generate any future revenue from the sale or licensing of product candidates.***

Even if approval is obtained for a product candidate, we may not generate or sustain revenue from sales or licensing of the product due to factors such as whether the product can be sold at a competitive cost and otherwise accepted in the market. The product candidates that we are developing are based on new technologies and therapeutic approaches. Market participants with significant influence over acceptance of new treatments, such as physicians and third-party payors, may not adopt a treatment based on RNAi, including siRNA technology, and we may not be able to convince the medical community and third-party payors to accept and use, or to provide favorable reimbursement for, our product candidates. Market acceptance of our product candidates will depend on, among other factors:

● the timing of our receipt of any marketing and commercialization approvals;

● the terms of any approvals and the countries in which approvals are obtained;

● the safety and efficacy of our product candidates;

● the prevalence and severity of any adverse side effects associated with our product candidates;

● limitations or warnings contained in any labeling approved by the FDA or other regulatory authorities;

● relative convenience and ease of administration of our product candidates;

● the willingness of patients to accept any new methods of administration;

● the success of our physician education programs;

● the availability of adequate government and third-party payor reimbursement;

● the pricing of our products, particularly as compared to alternative treatments; and

● availability of alternative effective treatments for the disease indications our product candidates are intended to treat and the relative risks, benefits and costs of those treatments.

With our focus on the emerging therapeutic modality RNAi, these risks may increase to the extent the space becomes more competitive or less favored in the commercial marketplace. Some of our target diseases, such as pancreatic cancer, are relatively rare. Because of the small patient population for a rare disease, if pricing is not approved or accepted in the market at an appropriate level for an approved product, such product may not generate enough revenue to offset costs of development, manufacturing, marketing and commercialization. Market size is also a variable in disease indications not classified as rare. Our estimates regarding potential market size for any indication may be materially different from what we discover to exist at the time we commence commercialization, if any, for a product, which could result in significant changes in our business plan and have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Even if a potential product displays a favorable efficacy and safety profile in preclinical and clinical studies, market acceptance of the product will not be fully known until after it is launched. Our efforts to educate the medical community and third-party payors on the benefits of the product candidates may require significant resources and may never be successful. If our product candidates are approved but fail to achieve an adequate level of acceptance by physicians, patients, third-party payors, and others in the medical community, we will not be able to generate sufficient revenue for us to become or remain profitable.

------

***The insurance coverage and reimbursement status of newly-approved products is uncertain. Failure to obtain or maintain adequate coverage and reimbursement for new or current products could limit our ability to market those products and decrease our ability to generate revenue.***

Some of our target patient populations are small, and, accordingly, the pricing, coverage, and reimbursement of our respective product candidates, if approved, must be adequate to support our commercial infrastructure. Our per-patient prices must be sufficient to recover our development and manufacturing costs and potentially achieve profitability. Accordingly, the availability and adequacy of coverage and reimbursement by governmental and private payors are essential for most patients to be able to afford expensive treatments such as ours, assuming approval. Sales of our product candidates will depend substantially, both domestically and abroad, on the extent to which the costs of our product candidates will be paid for by health maintenance, managed care, pharmacy benefit, and similar healthcare management organizations, or reimbursed by government authorities, private health insurers, and other third-party payors. If coverage and reimbursement are not available, or are available only to limited levels, Silexion may not be able to successfully commercialize our product candidates. Even if coverage is provided, the approved reimbursement amount may not be high enough to allow us to establish or maintain pricing sufficient to realize a return on our investment.

There is significant uncertainty related to the insurance coverage and reimbursement of newly approved products. In the United States, the principal decisions about coverage and reimbursement for new drugs are typically made by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, or CMS, an agency within the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, as CMS decides whether and to what extent a new drug will be covered and reimbursed under Medicare. Private payors tend to follow the coverage reimbursement policies established by CMS to a substantial degree. It is difficult to predict what CMS will decide with respect to reimbursement for products such as ours.

Outside the United States, international operations are generally subject to extensive governmental price controls and other market regulations, and we believe the increasing emphasis on cost-containment initiatives in Europe, Canada, and other countries has, and will continue to, put pressure on the pricing and usage of our product candidates. In many countries, the prices of medical products are subject to varying price control mechanisms as part of national health systems. In general, the prices of medicines under such systems are substantially lower than in the United States. Other countries allow companies to fix their own prices for medicinal products, but monitor and control company profits. Additional foreign price controls or other changes in pricing regulation could restrict the amount that we are able to charge for our product candidates. Accordingly, in markets outside the United States, the reimbursement for our products may be reduced compared with the United States and may be insufficient to generate commercially reasonable revenue and profits.

Moreover, increasing efforts by governmental and third-party payors in the United States and abroad to cap or reduce healthcare costs may cause such organizations to limit both coverage and the level of reimbursement for new products approved, and, as a result, they may not cover or provide adequate payment for our product candidates. We expect to experience pricing pressures in connection with the sale of any of our product candidates due to the trend toward managed healthcare, the increasing influence of health maintenance organizations, and additional legislative changes like the Inflation Reduction Act. The downward pressure on healthcare costs in general, particularly prescription drugs and surgical procedures and other treatments, has become very intense. As a result, increasingly high barriers are being erected to the entry of new products.

#### Healthcare legislative reform measures may have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.
The business and financial condition of pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies are affected by the efforts of governmental and third-party payors to contain or reduce the costs of health care. The U.S. Congress has enacted legislation to reform the health care system. While we anticipate that this legislation may, over time, increase the number of patients who have insurance coverage for pharmaceutical products, it also imposes cost containment measures that may adversely affect the amount of reimbursement for pharmaceutical products. These measures include increasing the minimum rebates for products covered by Medicaid programs and extending such rebates to drugs dispensed to Medicaid beneficiaries enrolled in Medicaid managed care organizations as well as expansion of the 340(B) Public Health Services drug discount program. In addition, such legislation contains a number of provisions designed to generate the revenues necessary to fund the coverage expansion. In foreign jurisdictions there have been, and we expect that there will continue to be, a number of legislative and regulatory proposals aimed at changing the health care system. For example, in some countries other than the United States, pricing of prescription drugs is subject to government control and we expect to see continued efforts to reduce healthcare costs in international markets.

------

Some U.S. states are also considering legislation that would control the prices of drugs, and state Medicaid programs are increasingly requesting manufacturers to pay supplemental rebates and requiring prior authorization by the state program for use of any drug for which supplemental rebates are not being paid. Managed care organizations continue to seek price discounts and, in some cases, to impose restrictions on the coverage of particular drugs. Government efforts to reduce Medicaid expenses may lead to increased use of managed care organizations by Medicaid programs. This may result in managed care organizations influencing prescription decisions for a larger segment of the population and a corresponding constraint on prices and reimbursement for drugs. It is likely that federal and state legislatures and health agencies will continue to focus on additional health care reform in the future although we are unable to predict what additional legislation or regulation, if any, relating to the health care industry or third-party coverage and reimbursement may be enacted in the future or what effect such legislation or regulation would have on our business. Our ability to commercialize any product candidates that Silexion may seek to commercialize, is highly dependent on the extent to which coverage and reimbursement for these product candidates will be available from government payors, such as Medicare and Medicaid, private health insurers, including managed care organizations, and other third-party payors, and any change in reimbursement levels could materially and adversely affect our business. Further, the pendency or approval of future proposals or reforms could result in a decrease in our share price or limit our ability to raise capital or to obtain strategic partnerships or licenses.

#### Our product candidates may be approved and/or commercialized only in part, only as neoadjuvant therapy, or as an adjuvant therapy.
Our product candidates may be approved by the FDA or other regulatory agencies only as a treatment to be provided in association with other treatments, if at all. For example, it may be possible that our SIL204 be used as adjunct therapy with chemotherapy treatments. Limitation in commercialization of such treatments, including limitations in supply, call-back, clinical holds, changes in medical trends, changes in cost and/or reimbursement policy, may limit our ability to commercialize our product candidates, either directly or via third parties.

#### Risks Related to Competition
***The pharmaceutical market is intensely competitive. If we are unable to compete effectively with existing drugs, new treatment methods and new technologies, we may be unable to commercialize successfully any drugs that we develop.***

The pharmaceutical market is intensely competitive and rapidly changing. Many large pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, academic institutions, governmental agencies and other public and private research organizations are pursuing the development of novel drugs for the same diseases that we are targeting or expect to target. Many of our competitors have:

● much greater financial, technical and human resources than we have at every stage of the discovery, development, manufacture and commercialization of products;

● more extensive experience in pre-clinical testing, conducting clinical trials, obtaining regulatory approvals, and in manufacturing, marketing and selling pharmaceutical products;

------

● product candidates that are based on previously tested or accepted technologies;

● products that have been approved or are in late stages of development; and

● collaborative arrangements in our target markets with leading companies and research institutions.

We will face intense competition from drugs that have already been, or may in the future become, approved and accepted by the medical community for the treatment of the conditions for which we may develop drugs. We also expect to face competition from new drugs that enter the market. We believe a significant number of drugs are currently under development, and may become commercially available in the future, for the treatment of conditions for which we may try to develop drugs and therapies. These drugs may be more effective, safer, less expensive, or marketed and sold more effectively, than any product we develop.

If we successfully develop our product candidates, and obtains approval for them, we will face competition based on many different factors, including:

● the safety and effectiveness of our product;

● the ease with which our product can be administered and the extent to which patients accept relatively new routes of administration;

● the timing and scope of regulatory approvals for our product;

● the availability and cost of manufacturing, marketing and sales capabilities;

● price

● reimbursement coverage; and

● patent position.

Our competitors may develop or commercialize products with significant advantages over any products we develop based on any of the factors listed above or on other factors. Our competitors may therefore be more successful in commercializing their products than us, which could adversely affect our competitive position and business. Competitive products may make any products we develop obsolete or noncompetitive before we can recover the expenses of developing and commercializing our product candidates. Such competitors could also recruit our employees, which could negatively impact our level of expertise and the ability to execute on our business plan.

***We face competition from other companies that are working to develop novel drugs and technology platforms using technology similar or in the same field as ours. If these companies develop drugs more rapidly than us, or their technologies, including delivery technologies, are more effective, our ability to successfully commercialize drugs may be adversely affected.***

In addition to the competition we face from competing drugs in general, we also face competition from other companies working to develop novel drugs using technology that competes more directly with our own. We are aware of multiple companies that are working in the field of RNAi therapeutics and or KRAS inhibition, including major pharmaceutical companies such as Bristol Myers Squibb/Mirati, Amgen, AstraZeneca, E.I. Lilly, Pfizer, Novartis International AG, and Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited, and biopharmaceutical/pharmaceutical companies such as Alnylam, Revolutions Medicines, Boehringer Ingelheim, Biomea Fusion Inc., Tekmira Pharmaceuticals Corporation, Arrowhead Research Corporation, Silence Therapeutics plc, RXi Pharmaceuticals Corporation, Quark Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and Marina Biotech, Inc.

------

We also compete with companies working to develop antisense-based drugs. Like RNAi therapeutics, antisense drugs target mRNAs in order to suppress the activity of specific genes. Ionis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. is currently marketing an antisense drug and has several antisense product candidates in clinical trials, albeit none in the oncology area at this time.

In addition to competition with respect to RNAi and with respect to specific products, we face substantial competition to discover and develop safe and effective means to deliver RNAi based drugs to the relevant cell and tissue types. Safe and effective means to deliver RNAi based drugs to the relevant cell and tissue types may be developed by our competitors, and our ability to successfully commercialize a competitive product would be adversely affected. In addition, substantial resources are being expended by third parties in the effort to discover and develop a safe and effective means of delivering RNAi-based drugs and into the relevant cell and tissue types, both in academic laboratories and in the corporate sector. Some of our competitors have substantially greater resources than we do, and if our competitors are able to negotiate exclusive access to those delivery solutions developed by third parties, we may be unable to successfully commercialize our product candidates. Also, we compete with companies working to develop non-RNAi based treatments for solid tumor cancers. For example, Novartis is working on a SHP2 inhibitor, and Boehringer Ingelheim and Bayer SOS1 inhibitors; and Threshold Pharmaceuticals (Threshold) is working to develop therapies that target tumor hypoxia, a common characteristic of the tumor microenvironment. Even if we successfully develop our product candidates, and obtain approval for them, other non RNAi treatments may be preferred, and we may not be successful in commercializing our product candidates.

Also, we compete with companies commercializing and/or working to develop drug delivery systems, including drug delivery systems for local (or regional) release. For example, various companies are working on nanoparticle technologies, although these products would not give the extended-release delivery of SIL204. In addition, other companies such as SurModics, Inc. are providers of drug delivery and surface modification technologies to the healthcare industry, including local delivery of drugs from drug eluting stents. We compete with many companies commercializing and/or working to develop drug delivery systems for specific indications, for example for local ocular (in the eye) release of drugs, including degradable and non-degradable products.

#### Risks Related to Our Intellectual Property
***If we are unable to obtain and maintain effective patent rights for our product candidates or any future product candidates, we may not be able to compete effectively in our markets.***

We rely upon a combination of trade secret protection and confidentiality agreements to protect the intellectual property related to our technologies and product candidates. As further described in detail below, we have pending PCT application in several international (i.e., non-U.S.) locations relating to SIL204, which upon grant will provide patent protection in the U.S., E.U. and other international jurisdictions. Our success depends in large part on our ability to obtain and maintain patent and other intellectual property protection in the United States and in other countries with respect to our proprietary technology and products.

We have sought to protect our proprietary position by filing patent applications in the United States and in other countries, with respect to our novel technologies and products, which are important to our business. This process is expensive and time consuming, and we may not be able to file and prosecute all necessary or desirable patent applications at a reasonable cost or in a timely manner. It is also possible that we will fail to identify patentable aspects of our research and development output before it is too late to obtain patent protection.

The patent position of biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies generally is highly uncertain and involves complex legal and factual questions for which legal principles remain unsolved. The patent applications that we own may fail to result in issued patents with claims that cover our product candidates in the United States or in other foreign countries. There is no assurance that all potentially relevant prior art relating to our patents and patent applications has been found, which can invalidate a patent or prevent a patent from issuing from a pending patent application. Even if patents do successfully issue, and even if such patents cover our product candidates, third parties may challenge their validity, enforceability, or scope, which may result in such patents being narrowed, found unenforceable or invalidated. Furthermore, even if they are unchallenged, our patents and patent applications may not adequately protect our intellectual property, provide exclusivity for our product candidates, or prevent others from designing around our claims. Any of these outcomes could impair our ability to prevent competition from third parties, which may have an adverse impact on our business.

------

We cannot offer any assurances about which, if any, patents will issue, the breadth of any such patent or whether any issued patents will be found invalid and unenforceable or will be threatened by third parties. Any successful opposition to these patents or any other patents owned by or licensed to us after patent issuance could deprive us of rights necessary for the successful commercialization of any product candidates that we may develop. Further, if we encounter delays in regulatory approvals, the period of time during which we could market a product candidate under patent protection could be reduced.

If we cannot obtain and maintain effective patent rights for our product candidates, we may not be able to compete effectively, and our business and results of operations would be harmed.

#### We may not have sufficient patent terms to effectively protect our products and business.
In the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries, most of an innovative product's commercial value is realized during a market exclusivity period. In the United States and in some other countries, when market exclusivity expires and generic versions are approved and marketed or when biosimilars are introduced (even if only for a competing product), there are usually very substantial and rapid declines in a product's revenues.

Patents have a limited lifespan. In the United States, the natural expiration of a patent is generally 20 years after it is filed. Although various extensions may be available, the life of a patent, and the protection it affords, is limited.

While patent term extensions under the Hatch-Waxman Act in the United States and under supplementary protection certificates in Europe may be available to extend the patent exclusivity term, we cannot provide any assurances that any such patent term extension will be obtained and, if so, for how long. In addition, upon issuance in the United States, any patent term can be adjusted based on certain delays caused by the applicant(s) or the USPTO. For example, a patent term can be reduced based on certain delays caused by the patent applicant during patent prosecution. If we do not have sufficient patent terms or regulatory exclusivity to protect our products, our business and results of operations will be adversely affected. Furthermore, manufacturers of innovative products as well as generic drug manufacturers may be able to design their products around our patents and compete with us using the resulting alternative technology. Absent relevant patent protection for a product, once the exclusivity period expires, generic or alternative versions can be approved and marketed.

Generic and biosimilar product manufacturers as well as other groups seeking financial gain are also increasingly seeking to challenge patents before they expire, and we could face earlier-than-expected competition for any products at any time. Patents covering our key products may be subject to validity, enforceability and infringement challenges in patent litigations and post-grant review patent office proceedings. It may be possible for these parties to successfully challenge our rights and launch their versions of our drugs prior to the expiration of our intellectual property rights.

In addition, both the U.S. Congress and the U.S. FDA have taken steps to promote the development and approval of generic drugs and biosimilar biologics, including by providing generic and biosimilar developers a private right of action to obtain sufficient quantities of drug samples from the reference product's manufacturer in order to conduct testing necessary to obtain approval for generic or biosimilar products.

------

Further, in December 2023, the Biden Administration released a proposed framework that for the first time proposed that a drug's price can be a factor in determining that the drug is not accessible to the public and therefore that the government could exercise "march-in rights" and license it to a third party to manufacture. A comment period on the proposal ran through February 6, 2024, As of the date of this report, the framework has not been finalized, no binding rule has been adopted, and no federal agency has ever exercised march-in rights on the basis of pricing or access. We cannot predict whether the U.S. government will finalize the draft framework in its proposed form, modify it, or seek to exercise march-in rights with respect to any of our current or future products. Any such actions could adversely affect our intellectual property protection, competitive position, and results of operations.

***Patent law, policy, or rule changes could increase the uncertainties and costs surrounding the prosecution of our patent applications and the enforcement or defense of any issued patent.***

Changes in either the patent laws or interpretation of the patent laws in the United States and other countries may diminish the value of our patents or narrow the scope of our patent protection. The laws of foreign countries may not protect our rights to the same extent as the laws of the United States. Publications of discoveries in the scientific literature often lag behind the actual discoveries, and patent applications in the United States and other jurisdictions are typically not published until 18 months after filing, or in some cases not at all. We therefore cannot be certain that we or our licensors were the first to make the invention claimed in our owned and licensed patent or pending applications, or that it or our licensor were the first to file for patent protection of such inventions. Assuming the other requirements for patentability are met, in the United States prior to March 15, 2013, the first to make the claimed invention is entitled to the patent, while outside the United States, the first to file a patent application is entitled to the patent. After March 15, 2013, under the Leahy-Smith America Invents Act, or the Leahy-Smith Act, enacted on September 16, 2011, the United States moved to a first to file system. The Leahy-Smith Act also included a number of significant changes that affect the way patent applications are prosecuted and also affect patent litigation. The USPTO recently developed new regulations and procedures to govern administration of the Leahy-Smith Act, and accordingly, it is not clear what, if any, impact the Leahy-Smith Act will have on the operation of our business. The Leahy-Smith Act and our implementation of it could increase the uncertainties and costs surrounding the prosecution of our patent applications and the enforcement or defense of our issued patents, all of which could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.

In addition, patent reform legislation may pass in the future that could lead to additional uncertainties and increased costs surrounding the prosecution, enforcement and defense of our patents and pending patent applications. Recent U.S. Supreme Court rulings have narrowed the scope of patent protection available in certain circumstances and weakened the rights of patent owners in certain situations. Furthermore, the U.S. Supreme Court and the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit have made, and will likely continue to make, changes in how the patent laws of the United States are interpreted. Similarly, foreign countries have made, and will likely continue to make, changes in how the patent laws in their respective jurisdictions are interpreted. We cannot predict future changes in the interpretation of patent laws or changes to patent laws that might be enacted into law by United States and foreign legislative bodies. Those changes may materially affect our patents or patent applications and our ability to obtain additional patent protection in the future.

The United States federal government retains certain rights in inventions produced with our financial assistance under the Patent and Trademark Law Amendments Act, or the Bayh-Dole Act. The federal government retains a "nonexclusive, nontransferable, irrevocable, paid-up license" for our own benefit. The Bayh-Dole Act also provides federal agencies with "march-in rights." March-in rights allow the government, in specified circumstances, to require the contractor or successors in title to the patent to grant a "nonexclusive, partially exclusive, or exclusive license" to a "responsible applicant or applicants." If the patent owner refuses to do so, the government may grant the license itself.

------

***If we are unable to maintain effective proprietary rights for our product candidates or any future product candidates, we may not be able to compete effectively in our markets.***

In addition to the protection afforded by any patents that may be granted, we rely on trade secret protection and confidentiality agreements to protect proprietary know-how that is not patentable or that we elect not to patent, processes for which patents are difficult to enforce and any other elements of our product candidate discovery and development processes that involve proprietary know-how, information or technology that is not covered by patents. However, trade secrets can be difficult to protect. We seek to protect our proprietary technology and processes, in part, by entering into confidentiality agreements with our employees, consultants, scientific advisors, and contractors. We also seek to preserve the integrity and confidentiality of our data and trade secrets by maintaining physical security of our premises and physical and electronic security of our information technology systems. While we have confidence in these individuals, organizations and systems, agreements or security measures may be breached, and we may not have adequate remedies for any breach. In addition, our trade secrets may otherwise become known or be independently discovered by competitors.

Although we expect all of our employees and consultants to assign their inventions to it, and all of our employees, consultants, advisors, and any third parties who have access to our proprietary know-how, information, or technology to enter into confidentiality agreements, we cannot provide any assurances that all such agreements have been duly executed or that our trade secrets and other confidential proprietary information will not be disclosed or that competitors will not otherwise gain access to our trade secrets or independently develop substantially equivalent information and techniques. Misappropriation or unauthorized disclosure of our trade secrets could impair our competitive position and may have a material adverse effect on our business. Additionally, if the steps taken to maintain our trade secrets are deemed inadequate, we may have insufficient recourse against third parties for misappropriating the trade secret.

***Intellectual property rights of third parties could adversely affect our ability to commercialize our product candidates, and we might be required to litigate or obtain licenses from third parties in order to develop or market our product candidate. Such litigation or licenses could be costly or not available on commercially reasonable terms.***

Because the RNAi intellectual property landscape is still evolving, it is difficult to conclusively assess our freedom to operate without infringing on third party rights. There are numerous companies that have pending patent applications and issued patents broadly directed to RNAi generally and to RNAi delivery technologies. Our competitive position may suffer if patents issued to third parties or other third-party intellectual property rights cover our products or elements thereof, or our manufacture or uses relevant to our development plans. In such cases, we may not be in a position to develop or commercialize products or our product candidate unless we successfully pursue litigation to nullify or invalidate the subject third-party intellectual property right or enter into a license agreement with the intellectual property right holder, if available on commercially reasonable terms. We are also aware of pending patent applications, and there may be others of which we are not aware, that if they result in issued patents, could be alleged to be infringed by our product candidates. If such an infringement claim is brought and is successful, we may be required to pay substantial damages, be forced to abandon our product candidates or seek a license from any patent holders. No assurances can be given that a license will be available on commercially reasonable terms, if at all. It is also possible that we have failed to identify relevant third-party patents or applications. For example, U.S. applications filed before November 29, 2000 and certain U.S. applications filed after that date that will not be filed outside the U.S. remain confidential until patents issue. Patent applications in the U.S. and elsewhere are published approximately 18 months after the earliest filing for which priority is claimed, with such earliest filing date being commonly referred to as the priority date. Therefore, patent applications covering our product candidates or platform technology could have been filed by others without our knowledge. Additionally, pending patent applications which have been published can, subject to certain limitations, be later amended in a manner that could cover our platform technologies, our product candidates or the use of our product candidates. Third party intellectual property right holders may also actively bring infringement claims against Us. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to successfully settle or otherwise resolve such infringement claims. If we are unable to successfully settle future claims on terms acceptable to us, we may be required to engage in or continue costly, unpredictable and time-consuming litigation and may be prevented from or experience substantial delays in pursuing the development of and/or marketing of our product candidates. If we fail in any such dispute, in addition to being forced to pay damages, we may be temporarily or permanently prohibited from commercializing our product candidates that are held to be infringing. We might, if possible, also be forced to redesign our product candidates so that we no longer infringe the third party intellectual property rights. Any of these events, even if we were ultimately to prevail, could require us to divert substantial financial and management resources that we would otherwise be able to devote to our business.

------

#### Third-party claims of intellectual property infringement may prevent or delay our development and commercialization efforts.
Our commercial success depends in part on our avoiding infringement of the patents and proprietary rights of third parties. There have been many lawsuits and other proceedings involving patent and other intellectual property rights in the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries, including patent infringement lawsuits, interferences, oppositions, and reexamination proceedings before the USPTO and corresponding foreign patent offices. Numerous U.S. and foreign issued patents and pending patent applications, which are owned by third parties, exist in the fields in which we are developing product candidates. As the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries expand and more patents are issued, the risk increases that our product candidates may be subject to claims of infringement of the patent rights of third parties.

Third parties may assert that we are employing our proprietary technology without authorization. There may be third-party patents or patent applications with claims to materials, formulations, methods of manufacture, or methods for treatment related to the use or manufacture of our product candidates. Because patent applications can take many years to issue, there may be currently pending patent applications that may later result in issued patents that our product candidates may infringe. In addition, third parties may obtain patents in the future and claim that use of our technologies infringes upon these patents. If any third-party patents were held by a court of competent jurisdiction to cover the manufacturing process of any of our product candidates, any molecules formed during the manufacturing process or any final product itself, the holders of any such patents may be able to block our ability to commercialize such product candidates unless we obtain a license under the applicable patents, or until such patents expire or are finally determined to be invalid or unenforceable.

Similarly, if any third-party patents were held by a court of competent jurisdiction to cover aspects of our formulations, processes for manufacture, or methods of use, the holders of any such patents may be able to block our ability to develop and commercialize the applicable product candidate unless we obtain a license or until such patent expires or is finally determined to be invalid or unenforceable. In either case, such a license may not be available on commercially reasonable terms or at all.

Parties making claims against us may obtain injunctive or other equitable relief, which could effectively block our ability to further develop and commercialize one or more of our product candidates. Defense of these claims, regardless of their merit, would involve substantial litigation expense and would be a substantial diversion of employee resources from our business. In the event of a successful claim of infringement against us, we may have to pay substantial damages, including treble damages and attorneys' fees for willful infringement, pay royalties, redesign our infringing products or obtain one or more licenses from third parties, which may be impossible or require substantial time and monetary expenditure.

#### We may not be successful in obtaining or maintaining necessary rights to our product candidates through acquisitions and in-licenses.
Because our programs may require the use of proprietary rights held by third parties, the growth of our business will likely depend in part on our ability to acquire, in-license, or use these proprietary rights. In addition, our product candidates may require specific formulations to work effectively and efficiently and the rights to these formulations may be held by others. We may be unable to acquire or in-license any compositions, methods of use, processes, or other third-party intellectual property rights from third parties that we identify as necessary for our product candidates. The licensing and acquisition of third-party intellectual property rights is a competitive area, and a number of more established companies are also pursuing strategies to license or acquire third-party intellectual property rights that we may consider attractive. These established companies may have a competitive advantage over us due to their size, cash resources, and greater clinical development and commercialization capabilities.

------

For example, we sometimes collaborate with U.S. and foreign academic institutions to accelerate our preclinical research or development under written agreements with these institutions. Typically, these institutions provide us with an option to negotiate a license to any of the institution's rights in technology resulting from the collaboration. Regardless of such option, we may be unable to negotiate a license within the specified timeframe or under terms that are acceptable to us. If we are unable to do so, the institution may offer the intellectual property rights to other parties, potentially blocking our ability to pursue our program.

In addition, companies that perceive us to be a competitor may be unwilling to assign or license rights to us. We also may be unable to license or acquire third-party intellectual property rights on terms that would allow us to make an appropriate return on our investment. If we are unable to successfully obtain rights to required third-party intellectual property rights, we may have to abandon development of that program and our business and financial condition could suffer.

***We may be involved in lawsuits to protect or enforce our current patent applications or future patents, which could be expensive, time consuming, and unsuccessful.***

Competitors may infringe our current patent applications, future patents or the patents of our licensors. If we or a future licensing partner were to initiate legal proceedings against a third party to enforce a patent covering one of our product candidates, the defendant could counterclaim that the patent covering our product candidate is invalid and/or unenforceable. In patent litigation in the United States, defendant counterclaims alleging invalidity and/or unenforceability are commonplace. Grounds for a validity challenge could be an alleged failure to meet any of several statutory requirements, including lack of novelty, obviousness, or non-enablement. Grounds for an unenforceability assertion could be an allegation that someone connected with prosecution of the patent withheld relevant information from the USPTO, or made a misleading statement, during prosecution. The outcome following legal assertions of invalidity and unenforceability is unpredictable.

Interference proceedings provoked by third parties or brought by us or declared by the USPTO may be necessary to determine the priority of inventions with respect to our patent or patent applications or those of our licensors. An unfavorable outcome could require us to cease using the related technology or to attempt to license rights to us from the prevailing party. Our business could be harmed if the prevailing party does not offer us a license on commercially reasonable terms. Our defense of litigation or interference proceedings may fail and, even if successful, may result in substantial costs and distract our management and other employees. In addition, the uncertainties associated with litigation could have a material adverse effect on our ability to raise the funds necessary to continue our clinical trials, continue our research programs, license necessary technology from third parties, or enter into development partnerships that would help us bring our product candidates to market.

Furthermore, because of the substantial amount of discovery required in connection with intellectual property litigation, there is a risk that some of our confidential information could be compromised by disclosure during this type of litigation. There could also be public announcements of the results of hearings, motions, or other interim proceedings or developments. If securities analysts or investors perceive these results to be negative, it could have a material adverse effect on the price of our ordinary shares.

***We may be subject to claims that our employees, consultants, or independent contractors have wrongfully used or disclosed confidential information of third parties or that our employees have wrongfully used or disclosed alleged trade secrets of their former employers.***

We employ or engage as consultants or subcontractors individuals who were previously employed at universities or other biotechnology or pharmaceutical companies, including our competitors or potential competitors. Although we try to ensure that our employees, consultants, and independent contractors do not use the proprietary information or know-how of others in their work for us, we may be subject to claims that we or our employees, consultants, or independent contractors have inadvertently or otherwise used or disclosed intellectual property, including trade secrets or other proprietary information, of any of our employees' former employers or other third parties. Litigation may be necessary to defend against these claims. If we fail in defending any such claims, in addition to paying monetary damages, we may lose valuable intellectual property rights or personnel, which could adversely impact our business. Even if we are successful in defending against such claims, litigation could result in substantial costs and be a distraction to management and other employees.

------

#### We may be subject to claims challenging the inventorship of our current patent application or future patents and other intellectual property.
We may be subject to claims that former employees, collaborators or other third parties have an interest in or right to compensation with respect to our current patent application, future patents or other intellectual property as an inventor or co-inventor. For example, we may have inventorship disputes arise from conflicting obligations of consultants or others who are involved in developing our product candidates. Litigation may be necessary to defend against these and other claims challenging inventorship or claiming the right to compensation. If we fail in defending any such claims, in addition to paying monetary damages, we may lose valuable intellectual property rights, such as exclusive ownership of, or right to use, valuable intellectual property. Such an outcome could have a material adverse effect on our business. Even if we are successful in defending against such claims, litigation could result in substantial costs and be a distraction to management and other employees. To the extent that our employees have not effectively waived the right to compensation with respect to inventions that they helped create, they may be able to assert claims for compensation with respect to our future revenue. As a result, we may receive less revenue from future products if such claims are successful, which, in turn, could impact our future profitability.

#### We may not be able to protect our intellectual property rights throughout the world.
Filing, prosecuting, and defending patents on product candidates in all countries throughout the world would be prohibitively expensive, and our intellectual property rights in some countries outside the United States can be less extensive than those in the United States. In addition, the laws of some foreign countries do not protect intellectual property rights to the same extent as federal and state laws in the United States.

Competitors may use our technologies in jurisdictions where we have not obtained patent protection to develop their own products and may also export otherwise infringing products to territories where we have patent protection but where enforcement is not as strong as that in the United States. These products may compete with our products, and our current patent application, future patents or other intellectual property rights may not be effective or sufficient to prevent them from competing.

Many companies have encountered significant problems in protecting and defending intellectual property rights in foreign jurisdictions. The legal systems of certain countries, particularly certain developing countries, do not favor the enforcement of patents, trade secrets, and other intellectual property protection, particularly those relating to biotechnology products, which could make it difficult for us to stop the infringement of our patents or marketing of competing products in violation of our proprietary rights generally. Proceedings to enforce our patent rights in foreign jurisdictions, whether or not successful, could result in substantial costs and divert our efforts and attention from other aspects of our business, could put our current patent applications or future patents at risk of being invalidated or interpreted narrowly and our patent applications at risk of not issuing and could provoke third parties to assert claims against us. We may not prevail in any lawsuits that we initiate, and the damages or other remedies awarded, if any, may not be commercially meaningful. Accordingly, our efforts to enforce our intellectual property rights around the world may be inadequate to obtain a significant commercial advantage from the intellectual property that we develop or license.

------

#### Risks Related to Our Human Resources

#### The loss of the services of our key personnel would negatively affect our business.
To successfully develop our drug candidates, we must be able to attract and retain highly skilled personnel, including consultants and employees. The retention of their services cannot be guaranteed. Our failure to retain or recruit such professionals might impair our performance and materially affect our technological and product development capabilities and our product marketing ability. Our future success depends to a large extent on the continued services of our senior management and key personnel, including in particular, Ilan Hadar, Dr. Mitchell Shirvan, Dr. Racheli Malka, Dr. Gadi Sarfati and Michal Yaron. Any loss of the services of members of our senior management or key employees would adversely affect our business. We do not currently maintain key-person insurance on the lives of any of our key personnel.

#### We may be unable to attract, develop and retain additional employees required for our development and future success.
Our success is largely dependent on the performance of our management team and certain key employees and our continuing ability to attract, develop, motivate and retain highly qualified and skilled employees. Qualified individuals are in high demand, and we may incur significant costs to attract and retain them. The inability to attract suitably qualified persons, when needed, could prevent us from executing on our business plan and strategy, and we may be unable to find adequate replacements on a timely basis, or at all.

#### Risks Related to Our Operations
***Our business and operations, or those of our CROs or third parties, may suffer in the event of computer system failures, cyberattacks or deficiencies in our cybersecurity, which could materially affect our results.***

We receive, generate and store significant and increasing volumes of sensitive information, such as health information, insurance information and other potentially personally identifiable information. We face a number of risks related to protecting the computer systems we rely on and this critical information, including loss of access risk, inappropriate use or disclosure, inappropriate modification and the risk of being unable to adequately monitor, audit and modify our controls over our critical information. This risk extends to the computer systems and information of any collaboration partners, medical institutions, clinical investigators, CROs, contract laboratories, or other third parties involved in our business.

Despite the implementation of security measures, our information technology systems, as well as those of CROs or other third parties with which we have relationships, are vulnerable to attack and damage from computer viruses and malware (e.g., ransomware), unauthorized access, natural and manmade disasters, terrorism, war and telecommunication and electrical failures, malfeasance by external or internal parties, and human error (e.g., social engineering, phishing). Attacks upon information technology systems are increasing in their frequency, levels of persistence, sophistication and intensity, and are being conducted by sophisticated and organized groups and individuals with a wide range of motives and expertise. Furthermore, because the technologies used to obtain unauthorized access to, or to sabotage or disrupt, systems change frequently and often are not recognized until launched against a target, we may be unable to anticipate these techniques or implement adequate preventative measures. We may also experience security breaches that may remain undetected for an extended period. We may not be able to anticipate all types of security threats, and even if identified, we may be unable to adequately investigate or remediate incidents or breaches due to attackers increasingly using tools and techniques that are designed to circumvent controls, to avoid detection, and to remove or obfuscate forensic evidence. We may also face increased cybersecurity risks due to our reliance on internet technology and the number of our and our service providers' employees who are (and may continue to be) working remotely, which may create additional opportunities for cybercriminals to exploit vulnerabilities. The White House, SEC and other regulators have also increased their focus on companies' cybersecurity vulnerabilities and risks.

------

Our CROs and certain of our service providers are from time to time subject to cyberattacks and security incidents. While we have not to our knowledge experienced any significant system failure, accident or security breach to date, if such an event were to occur and cause interruptions in our or our critical third parties' operations, it could result in delays and/or material disruptions of our research and development programs, our operations and ultimately, our financial results. For example, the loss of trial data from completed, ongoing or planned trials could result in delays in our regulatory approval efforts and significantly increase our costs to recover or reproduce the data. Likewise, we rely on third parties for the manufacture of our product candidates and to conduct clinical trials, and similar events relating to their computer systems could also adversely impact our business. Further, due to the current tensions involving Hamas in Gaza, Hezbollah in Lebanon, and the Russia-Ukraine conflict, there is an increased likelihood that the tensions could result in cyberattacks or cybersecurity incidents that could either directly or indirectly impact our or our critical third parties' operations. To the extent that any disruption or security breach were to result in a loss of or damage to data or applications, or inappropriate disclosure of personal, confidential or proprietary information, we could incur liability due to delays in the development and commercialization of our product candidates or other business activities and/or due to reputational harm, litigation, regulatory investigations and enforcement, fines and penalties, or increased costs of compliance and system remediation.

Our existing general liability and cyber liability insurance policies may not cover, or may cover only a portion of, any potential claims related to security breaches to which we are exposed or may not be adequate to indemnify us for all or any portion of liabilities that may be imposed. We also cannot be certain that our existing insurance coverage will continue to be available on acceptable terms or in amounts sufficient to cover the potentially significant losses that may result from a security incident or breach or that the insurer will not deny coverage of any future claim. If the information technology systems of our CROs or other service providers become subject to disruptions or security breaches, we may have insufficient remedies against such third parties and we may have to expend significant resources to mitigate the impact of such an event, and to develop and implement protections to prevent future events of this nature from occurring.

#### If product liability lawsuits are brought against us, we may incur substantial liabilities and may be required to limit commercialization of any approved products.
We face an inherent risk of product liability as a result of the clinical testing of product candidates and will face an even greater risk if we commercialize any products. For example, we may be sued if any product candidate we develop causes or is perceived to cause injury or is found to be otherwise unsuitable during clinical testing, manufacturing, marketing or sale. Any such product liability claims may include allegations of defects in manufacturing, defects in design, a failure to warn of dangers inherent in the product, negligence, strict liability or a breach of warranties. Claims could also be asserted under state consumer protection acts. If we cannot successfully defend itself against product liability claims, we may incur substantial liabilities or be required to limit commercialization of any approved products. Even successful defense would require significant financial and management resources.

Regardless of the merits or eventual outcome, liability claims may result in:

● decreased demand for any approved product;

● injury to our reputation;

● withdrawal of clinical trial participants;

● initiation of investigations by regulators;

● costs to defend the related litigation;

● a diversion of management's time and our resources;

------

● substantial monetary awards to trial participants or patients;

● product recalls, withdrawals or labeling, marketing or promotional restrictions;

● exhaustion of any available insurance and our capital resources and potential increase in our insurance premiums and/or retention amounts; and

● the inability to commercialize any product candidate.

Our inability to obtain sufficient product liability insurance at an acceptable cost to protect against potential product liability claims could prevent or inhibit the commercialization of products we develop, alone or with collaboration partners.

Insurance coverage is increasingly expensive. We may not be able to maintain insurance at a reasonable cost or in an amount adequate to satisfy any liability that may arise, if at all. Our insurance policy contains various exclusions, and we may be subject to a product liability claim for which we have no coverage. We may have to pay any amounts awarded by a court or negotiated in a settlement that exceed our coverage limitations or that are not covered by our insurance, and we may not have, or be able to obtain, sufficient capital to pay such amounts. Even if our agreements with any current or future collaborator entitle us to indemnification against losses, such indemnification is limited and may not be available or adequate should any claim arise.

***We may not be able to successfully identify and execute strategic alliances or other relationships with third parties or to successfully manage the impacts of acquisitions, dispositions or relationships on our operations.***

We currently have, and may expand the scope of, and may in the future enter into, strategic alliances with third parties that it believes will complement or augment our existing business. Our ability to complete further such strategic alliances is dependent upon, and may be limited by, among other things, the availability of suitable candidates and capital. In addition, strategic alliances could present unforeseen integration obstacles or costs, may not enhance our business and may involve risks that could adversely affect us, including the investment of significant amounts of management time that may be diverted from operations in order to pursue and complete such transactions or maintain such strategic alliances. Future strategic alliances could result in the incurrence of debt, costs and contingent liabilities, and there can be no assurance that future strategic alliances will achieve, or that our existing strategic alliances will continue to achieve, the expected benefits to our business or that we will be able to consummate future strategic alliances on satisfactory terms, or at all.

Although we do not currently plan to engage in other material strategic transactions, such as acquisitions, we may from time to time consider such transactions. Material strategic transactions involve a number of risks, including:

● the potential disruption of our ongoing business;

● the distraction of management away from the ongoing oversight of our existing business activities;

● incurring additional indebtedness;

● the anticipated benefits and cost savings of those transactions not being realized fully, or at all, or taking longer to realize than anticipated;

● an increase in the scope and complexity of our operations; and

● the loss or reduction of control over certain of our assets.

------

A strategic transaction may result in a significant change in the nature of our business, operations and strategy, and we may encounter unforeseen obstacles or costs in implementing a strategic transaction or integrating any acquired business into our operations.

#### Risks Related to our Operations in Israel

#### Conditions in the Middle East and in Israel may harm our operations.
Our executive offices, employees and management personnel are located in Israel. Most of our officers and directors are residents of Israel. Since the establishment of the State of Israel in 1948, a number of armed conflicts have taken place between Israel and its neighboring countries, and between Israel and neighboring countries and terrorist organizations active in the region, including Iran and its sponsored terrorist organizations, Hamas (in the Gaza Strip), and Hezbollah (in Lebanon). In late February 2026, Israel and the United States preemptively attacked Iran, in order to eliminate Iran's nuclear and ballistic missile capabilities, and to target the Islamic fundamentalist regime governing Iran, which has threatened Israel's existence. As part of this conflict, Iran launched missile attacks throughout Israel. This war followed upon similar conflicts in June 2025, and in April 2024 and October 2024, during which Iran launched ballistic missile attacks against Israel, and Israel conducted strikes against Iranian military and nuclear infrastructure. Hezbollah has also joined the attacks against Israel in this latest stage of the Israel-Iranian conflict. The direct conflicts with Iran have run parallel to, and followed upon, a two-year war (from October 2023 until October 2025) during which Israel was attacked by Hamas and Hezbollah. and declared war in response, which included ground operations in the Gaza Strip and southern Lebanon. Other Iranian-sponsored terrorist organizations in the Middle East, including the Houthi terrorist group in Yemen, have also attacked Israel with various types of missiles and drones as part of these conflicts, and Israel has responded with air force attacks. Nearby in the region, the fall of the Assad regime in Syria led Israel to conduct limited military operations targeting Iranian military assets and infrastructure linked to Hezbollah and other Iran-supported groups.

From the initial stages of these wars, which began on October 7, 2023, until recently, our operations have not been materially adversely affected by this situation, and we have not experienced disruptions to our pre-clinical studies, facilities or the manufacturing or supply of our drug candidates. That is partially attributable to the fact that some of our core activities, including research and development, clinical, and regulatory, are conducted outside of Israel. However, if the current stage of these wars extends for a long period of time or expands to other fronts, our operations may be harmed in other manners. In particular, in the short term, our ability to raise critical financings for our operations may be harmed due to the adverse impact that the current Israel-Iran war has had on the U.S. capital markets and the ability of our executives to travel outside of Israel in connection with those financing activities. If that were to continue for an extended period of time, that could adversely affect our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.

Armed conflicts, terrorist activities or political instability in Israel or in the broader Middle East have adversely affected, and could once again, adversely affect business conditions in Israel, and could harm our results of operations. Parties with whom we do business may decline to travel to Israel, or we may be unable to travel outside of Israel, during periods of heightened unrest or tension, forcing us to make alternative arrangements when necessary in order to meet our business partners face to face. In addition, the political and security situation in Israel may result in parties with whom we have agreements involving performance in Israel claiming that they are not obligated to perform their commitments under those agreements pursuant to force majeure provisions in such agreements. Further, in the past, the State of Israel and Israeli companies have been subjected to economic boycotts. Several countries still restrict business with the State of Israel and with Israeli companies. These restrictive laws and policies may have an adverse impact on our operating results, financial condition or the expansion of our business. The interruption or curtailment of trade between Israel and its trading partners could adversely affect our operations and results of operations.

------

Our commercial insurance does not cover losses that may occur as a result of events associated with the security situation in the Middle East. Although the Israeli government currently covers the reinstatement value of direct damages that are caused by terrorist attacks or acts of war, we cannot assure you that this government coverage will be maintained. Any losses or damages incurred by us could have a material adverse effect on our business.

***It may be difficult to enforce a U.S. judgment against us, our officers or our directors or to assert U.S. securities law claims in Israel.***

Service of process upon us and upon our directors and officers, who reside outside the U.S., may be difficult to obtain within the U.S. In addition, because substantially all of our assets and most of our directors and officers are located outside the U.S., any judgment obtained in the U.S. against us or any of our directors and officers may not be collectible within the U.S. There is a doubt as to the enforceability of civil liabilities under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act pursuant to original actions instituted in Israel. Subject to particular time limitations and provided certain conditions are met, executory judgments of a U.S. court for monetary damages in civil matters may be enforced by an Israeli court.

***Under applicable U.S. and Israeli law, we may not be able to enforce covenants not to compete and therefore may be unable to prevent our competitors from benefiting from the expertise of some of our former employees. In addition, employees may be entitled to seek compensation for their inventions irrespective of their agreements with us, which in turn could impact our future profitability.***

We generally enter into non-competition agreements with our employees and key consultants. These agreements prohibit our employees and key consultants, if they cease working for us, from competing directly with it or working for our competitors or clients for a limited period of time. We may be unable to enforce these agreements under the laws of the jurisdictions in which our employees work and it may be difficult for it to restrict our competitors from benefitting from the expertise our former employees or consultants developed while working for us. For example, Israeli courts have required employers seeking to enforce non-compete undertakings of a former employee to demonstrate that the competitive activities of the former employee will harm one of a limited number of material interests of the employer which have been recognized by the courts, such as the secrecy of a company's confidential commercial information or the protection of our intellectual property. If it cannot demonstrate that such interests will be harmed, we may be unable to prevent our competitors from benefiting from the expertise of our former employees or consultants and our ability to remain competitive may be diminished.

In addition, Chapter 8 of the Israeli Patents Law, 5727-1967, or the Patents Law, deals with inventions made in the course of an employee's service and during his or her term of employment, whether or not the invention is patentable, or service inventions. Section 134 of the Patents Law sets forth that if there is no agreement which explicitly determines whether the employee is entitled to compensation for the service inventions and the extent and terms of such compensation, such determination will be made by the Compensation and Rewards Committee, a statutory committee of the Israeli Patents Office. As a result, it is unclear if, and to what extent, our research and development employees may be able to claim compensation with respect to our future revenue. As a result, we may receive less revenue from future products if such claims are successful, which in turn could impact our future profitability.

#### Risks Related to Ownership of Our Ordinary Shares

#### If we fail to maintain compliance with Nasdaq continued listing requirements, our shares may be delisted from the Nasdaq Capital Market.
To continue to be listed on Nasdaq, we must satisfy a number of ongoing conditions. On September 23, 2025, we received a letter from Nasdaq (the "**September 2025 Nasdaq Letter**") confirming that we had restored compliance with the requirements related to our previously outstanding listing rule deficiencies—(i) failure to maintain at least $2.5 million of shareholders' equity, and (ii) the closing bid price of our ordinary shares having been below the minimum $1.00 level for 30 consecutive trading days prior to July 18, 2025.

------

This followed a process that began in November 2024, when we received notices of non-compliance with Nasdaq Global Market standards, including requirements for minimum market value of listed securities and minimum market value of publicly held shares, which ultimately led to a hearing before a Nasdaq hearings panel in June 2025 (the "**June 2025 Nasdaq Hearing**"). Following that hearing, our securities were transferred from the Nasdaq Global Market to the Nasdaq Capital Market on July 8, 2025, where trading has continued under the symbols "SLXN" and "SLXNW", respectively.

As described in the September 2025 Nasdaq Letter, we are subject to a mandatory panel monitoring period until September 23, 2026. If, within that one-year monitoring period, the Nasdaq staff finds our company again out of compliance with the minimum shareholders' equity requirement, we would not be permitted to provide the Nasdaq staff with a plan of compliance with respect to that deficiency, and the staff would not be permitted to grant additional time to us to regain compliance with respect to that deficiency, nor would we be afforded an applicable cure or compliance period. Instead, the staff would issue a delist determination letter, and we would have an opportunity to request a new hearing with the initial panel from our June 2025 Nasdaq Hearing or a newly convened hearings panel if the initial panel is unavailable.

While we have successfully addressed all immediate compliance concerns, we must continue to maintain compliance with all Nasdaq Capital Market listing standards. There can be no assurance that we will maintain compliance with the shareholders' equity requirement and all other standards for listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market on an ongoing basis.

If our securities are delisted from Nasdaq, we may seek to list them on other markets or exchanges, or the ordinary shares may trade in the over-the-counter markets. In the event of such delisting, our shareholders' ability to trade, or obtain quotations of the market value of, our securities would be severely limited because of lower trading volumes and transaction delays. These factors could contribute to lower prices and larger spreads in the bid and ask prices for our securities. In addition, the substantially decreased trading in our securities and decreased market liquidity of our securities as a result of the loss of market efficiencies associated with Nasdaq, and the accompanying loss of federal preemption of state securities laws, could materially adversely affect our ability to obtain financing on acceptable terms, if at all, and may result in the potential loss of confidence by investors, suppliers, customers and employees, and cause us to have fewer business development opportunities. Additionally, that may cause the market price of our securities to decline further, and shareholders may lose some or all of their investment. There can be no assurance that our securities, if delisted from Nasdaq in the future, would be listed on another national or international securities exchange or quotation system.

#### The price of our ordinary shares and our warrants may be volatile, and the value of our ordinary shares and our warrants may decline.
We cannot predict the prices at which our ordinary shares or warrants will trade. The price of our ordinary shares and our warrants may not bear any relation to any established criteria of the value of our business and prospects. In addition, the trading price of our ordinary shares and warrants is likely to be volatile and could be subject to fluctuations in response to various factors, some of which are beyond our control. These fluctuations could cause you to lose all or part of your investment in our ordinary shares and our warrants as you might be unable to sell your shares at or above the price you paid. Factors that could cause fluctuations in the trading price of our ordinary shares and our warrants include the following:

● actual or anticipated fluctuations in our financial condition or results of operations;

● variance in the projected timeline for regulatory approvals of our product candidates from expectations of securities analysts;

● changes in laws or regulations applicable to our business;

------

● announcements by us or our competitors of significant business developments;

● significant data breaches, disruptions to or other incidents involving our company;

● conditions or developments affecting the biotechnology industry;

● future sales of ordinary shares by us or our shareholders, as well as the anticipation of lock-up releases;

● changes in senior management or key personnel;

● the trading volume of our securities;

● changes in the anticipated future size and growth rate of our markets;

● publication of research reports or news stories about us, our competitors or our industry, or positive or negative recommendations or withdrawal of research coverage by securities analysts;

● general economic political, or market conditions; and

● other events or factors, including those resulting from war, incidents of terrorism, global pandemics or responses to those events.

Broad market and industry fluctuations, as well as general economic, political, regulatory and market conditions, may also negatively impact the market price of our ordinary shares. In the past, companies that have experienced volatility in the market price of their securities have been subject to securities class action litigation. We may be the target of this type of litigation in the future, which could result in substantial expenses and divert our management's attention.

***A substantial number of our ordinary shares may be issued pursuant to the ATM Agreement and/or the conversion terms of the A&R Sponsor Promissory Note, which could cause (i) the price of the ordinary shares to decline, and (ii) substantial dilution to our existing shareholders.***

The purchase price per ordinary share to be paid by public shareholders for shares that we may elect to issue and sell via H.C. Wainwright under the ATM Agreement (in an aggregate amount of up to $13,170,000 of ordinary shares) will fluctuate based on the market price of our ordinary shares at the time we elect to sell such shares. Depending on market liquidity at the time, such sales of ordinary shares under the ATM may cause the trading price of our ordinary shares to decrease, and any such decrease could be substantial.

If and when we elect to issue and sell ordinary shares under the ATM Agreement, those issuances and sales will result in dilution to the interests of existing holders of our ordinary shares, which dilution may be substantial. Additionally, the sale of a substantial number of ordinary shares under the ATM, or the anticipation of such sales, could make it more difficult for us to sell equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time and at a price that we might otherwise wish to effect sales.

In addition to ordinary shares that may be issued under the ATM Agreement, ordinary shares may also be issued upon conversion of amounts outstanding under the A&R Sponsor Promissory Note, in an original principal amount of $3.433 million due February 15, 2027, that we issued to the Moringa sponsor in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination. As of December 31, 2025, following conversion of $1.8 million of the outstanding principal amount in September 2025, the remaining outstanding principal amount under the A&R Sponsor Promissory Note was approximately $1.633 million.

The conversion prices under the A&R Sponsor Promissory Note are based on the market price of our ordinary shares and/or the price at which we raise capital in equity financings. The issuance of additional ordinary shares upon conversion of the A&R Sponsor Promissory Note will dilute our existing shareholders and could cause the market price of our ordinary shares to decline.

------

***The ordinary shares (including ordinary shares underlying warrants) that are being offered by selling securityholders under registration statements that we currently have in effect represent a substantial percentage of our outstanding ordinary shares, and the sale of such shares, or the perception that such sales may occur, could cause the price of our ordinary shares to be more volatile or decrease.***

On October 9, 2024, we filed a registration statement on Form S-1 (SEC file number 333-282556), which the SEC declared effective on October 16, 2024, registering the sale by the selling securityholders named therein of up to 113,720 of our ordinary shares and up to 1,408 of our private warrants. On February 12, 2025 and August 26, 2025, we filed registration statements on Form S-1 (SEC file numbers 333-284873 and 333-289860, respectively), which the SEC declared effective on April 1, 2025 and September 4, 2025, respectively, registering the sale by the selling securityholders named therein of up to 158,469 and 314,859 of our ordinary shares underlying an equivalent number of warrants (which warrants had been issued pursuant to the January 2025 and July/August 2025 induced warrant exercise transactions, respectively). On October 31, 2025, we filed a registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-291210), which went effective automatically on November 20, 2025, registering the resale by selling securityholders of up to 1,292,348 ordinary shares and up to 372 warrants (which covered the resale of the remaining ordinary shares and warrants covered by those previous two registration statements).

Depending on market liquidity, resales of ordinary shares and warrants by the selling securityholders under these registration statements may cause the trading price of our ordinary shares and warrants to decrease, and any such decrease could be substantial. Furthermore, the sale of a significant number of ordinary shares or warrants by these selling securityholders, or the perception that such sales may occur, could increase the volatility of the market price of the ordinary shares and warrants, depress their trading price, and make it more difficult for us to raise capital by selling equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time and price that we might otherwise prefer.

***Because we have no current plans to pay cash dividends on our ordinary shares for the foreseeable future, you may not receive any return on investment unless you sell Silexion ordinary shares for a price greater than that which you paid for it.***

We will likely retain future earnings, if any, for future operations, expansion and debt repayment and have no current plans to pay any cash dividends for the foreseeable future. Any decision to declare and pay dividends as a public company in the future will be made at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend on, among other things, our results of operations, financial condition, cash requirements, contractual restrictions, funds lawfully available therefor and other factors that our board of directors may deem relevant. In addition, our ability to pay dividends may be limited by covenants of any existing and future outstanding indebtedness we or our subsidiaries incur. As a result, you may not receive any return on an investment in our ordinary shares unless you sell our ordinary shares for a price greater than that which you paid for it.

***To the extent we need to effect an additional reverse share split, our ordinary shares may experience extreme price volatility unrelated to our actual or expected performance, making it difficult for investors to assess the value of our ordinary shares.***

Recently, several -public companies with low capitalizations have experienced extreme share price volatility, including rapid price increases followed by sharp declines. As a relatively small-capitalization company with a limited public float, we may experience greater share price volatility, lower trading volume, and less liquidity than companies with larger capitalization.

The potential for volatility is heightened following a reverse share split, such as our 1-for-9 reverse share split effected on November 29, 2024, and our 1-for-15 reverse share split effected on July 29, 2025. Following a reverse share split, our ordinary shares may be subject to rapid and substantial price fluctuations, low trading volumes, and wide bid-ask spreads. Such volatility may be unrelated to our actual or expected operating performance or prospects, making it difficult for investors to assess the value of our ordinary shares. To the extent we need to effect an additional reverse share split in the future in order to maintain compliance with the Nasdaq minimum bid price rule, these volatility factors may adversely affect investors in our ordinary shares.

------

If trading volumes remain low, small trades could significantly influence the price of our ordinary shares, causing large percentage changes in price during a single trading session. Shareholders may be unable to readily liquidate their investment or may be forced to sell at depressed prices. Broad market fluctuations and general economic or political conditions (including those in Israel, where our operations are centered) may also adversely affect the market price of our ordinary shares.

As a result of this volatility, investors may experience losses on their investment. A volatile market price could also adversely affect our ability to issue additional ordinary shares or other securities and to obtain financing in the future, which is a key strategic objective for us.

***We qualify as an "emerging growth company" as well as a "smaller reporting company" within the meaning of the Securities Act, and if we take advantage of certain exemptions from disclosure requirements available to emerging growth companies or smaller reporting companies, it could make our securities less attractive to investors and may make it more difficult to compare our performance to the performance of other public companies.***

We qualify as an "emerging growth company" as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the Securities Act, as modified by the JOBS Act. As such, we will be eligible for and intend to take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies for as long as we continue to be an emerging growth company, including (a) the exemption from the auditor attestation requirements with respect to internal control over financial reporting under Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, (b) the exemptions from say-on-pay, say-on-frequency and say-on-golden parachute voting requirements and (c) reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements. We will remain an emerging growth company until the earliest of (i) the last day of the fiscal year in which the market value of our ordinary shares that are held by non-affiliates is equal to or exceeds $700 million as of the end of that year's second fiscal quarter, (ii) the last day of the fiscal year in which we have total annual gross revenue of $1.235 billion or more during such fiscal year (as indexed for inflation), (iii) the date on which we have issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt in the prior three-year period or (iv) the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the date of the first issuance of our ordinary shares in the Business Combination (i.e., on December 31, 2029). In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of the exemption from complying with new or revised accounting standards provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act as long as the Company is an emerging growth company. An emerging growth company can therefore delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have elected not to opt out of such extended transition period and, therefore, we may not be subject to the same new or revised accounting standards as other public companies that are not emerging growth companies. Investors may find our ordinary shares less attractive because we rely on these exemptions, which may result in a less active trading market and a trading price that is more volatile for our ordinary shares.

Additionally, we qualify as a "smaller reporting company" as defined in Item 10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC. Smaller reporting companies may take advantage of certain reduced disclosure obligations, including, among other things, providing only two years of audited financial statements. We will remain a smaller reporting company until the last day of the fiscal year in which (i) the market value of our ordinary shares held by non-affiliates is equal to or exceeds $250 million as of the end of that year's second fiscal quarter, or (ii) our annual revenues are equal to or exceed $100 million during that fiscal year, or the market value of our ordinary shares held by non-affiliates is equal to or exceeds $700 million as of the end of that year's second fiscal quarter.

Our taking advantage of these reduced disclosure obligations may make it difficult to compare our financial statements with those of other public companies.

#### Risks Related to U.S. Federal Income Taxation

#### The PFIC status of our company could result in adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences to U.S. Holders.
In general, a non-U.S. corporation is a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes for any taxable year in which, after applying certain look-through rules, either (i) 50% or more of the average value of its assets (generally determined on the basis of a weighted quarterly average) consists of assets that produce, or are held for the production of, passive income, or (ii) 75% or more of its gross income consists of passive income. Passive income generally includes dividends, interest, rents and royalties (other than rents or royalties derived from the active conduct of a trade or business) and gains from the disposition of passive assets. Cash and cash equivalents generally are passive assets. The value of goodwill will generally be treated as an active or passive asset based on the nature of the income produced in the activity to which the goodwill is attributable. For purposes of the PFIC rules, a non-U.S. corporation that owns, directly or indirectly, at least 25% by value of the stock of another corporation is treated as if it held its proportionate share of the assets of the other corporation and received directly its proportionate share of the income of the other corporation.

The annual PFIC income and asset tests in respect of our company is applied based on the assets and activities of our business. Based on the composition of our income and assets, it cannot be determined whether we will be classified as a PFIC for 2025 or in any future taxable year. Further, changes in the composition of our income or composition of our assets may cause us to be or become a PFIC for the current or subsequent taxable years. Whether we are treated as a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes is a factual determination that must be made annually at the close of each taxable year and, thus, is subject to significant uncertainty.

If we are treated as a PFIC for any taxable year, or portion thereof, that is included in the holding period of a U.S. Holder, such U.S. Holder may be subject to certain adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences and may be subject to additional reporting requirements. U.S. Holders are strongly encouraged to consult their own advisors regarding the potential application of these rules to the ownership of our ordinary shares, pre-funded warrants and/or our ordinary warrants.

***If a U.S. person is treated as owning at least 10% of the shares of our company, such person may be subject to adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences.***

If a U.S. Holder is treated as owning (directly, indirectly or constructively) at least 10% of the value or voting power of our shares, such holder may be treated as a "United States shareholder" with respect to each of Silexion and our direct and indirect subsidiaries (the "**Silexion Group**") that is a "controlled foreign corporation," (a "**CFC**"), for U.S. federal income tax purposes. A non-U.S. corporation is considered a CFC if more than 50% of (1) the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of such corporation entitled to vote, or (2) the total value of the stock of such corporation is owned, or is considered as owned by applying certain constructive ownership rules, by United States shareholders on any day during the taxable year of such non-U.S. corporation. If the Silexion Group includes one or more non-U.S. subsidiaries, certain of our non-U.S. subsidiaries could be treated as CFCs regardless of whether we are treated as a CFC.

If we or any of our non-U.S. subsidiaries is a CFC, 10% "United States shareholders" will be subject to adverse income inclusion and reporting requirements with respect to such CFC. No assurance can be provided that we will assist holders in determining whether we or any of our non-U.S. subsidiaries is treated as a CFC or whether any holder is treated as a United States shareholder with respect to any of such CFCs, or furnish to any holder information that may be necessary to comply with reporting and tax payment obligations with respect to such CFCs.

------

General Risks

***We may be subject to securities litigation, which is expensive and could divert management attention, including securities class action and derivative lawsuits which could result in substantial costs.***

Our share price may be volatile and, in the past, companies that have experienced volatility in the market price of their stock or shares have been subject to securities litigation, including class action litigation. We may be the target of this type of litigation in the future. Litigation of this type could result in substantial costs and diversion of management's attention and resources, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. Any adverse determination in litigation could also subject our company to significant liabilities.

Securities class action lawsuits and derivative lawsuits are often brought against public companies that have entered into merger or business combination agreements. Even if the lawsuits are without merit, defending against these claims can result in substantial costs and divert management time and resources. An adverse judgment could result in monetary damages, which could have a negative impact on our liquidity and financial condition. We cannot predict whether any such lawsuits will be filed.

#### Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments
None.

#### Item 1C . Cybersecurity

#### Risk Management and Strategy
We have implemented and maintain an information security program designed to identify, assess, and manage material risks from cybersecurity threats to our critical computer networks, third party hosted services, communications systems, hardware and software, and our critical data including intellectual property, clinical trial participant and patient-related data, and confidential information that is proprietary, strategic or competitive in nature. We believe our information security program is appropriate for a company of our size and stage of development, taking into account our operations and risks.

Our cybersecurity policies and processes include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Mechanisms, controls, and technologies designed to prevent or mitigate system intrusion or data loss, theft, misuse, or other security incidents or vulnerabilities and maintain a stable and secure information technology environment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Information security policies, network and device security, encryption standards, risk management, as well as security tools such as malware protection and secure authentication tools.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We conduct ongoing monitoring of critical systems for any compromised or potentially compromised accounts, and conduct regular trainings for our employees and senior management on cyber and information security.

#### Governance
The audit committee of our board of directors oversees and reviews our cybersecurity risks and the steps management has taken to protect against threats to our information systems and security. Our leadership team, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, provides periodic reports to our board of directors and the audit committee, as applicable.

To date, we have not identified risks from known cybersecurity threats, including as a result of any prior cybersecurity incidents, that have materially affected us, including our operations, business strategy, results of operations, or financial condition.

We have not paid any cash dividends on our ordinary shares to date and do not intend to pay cash dividends for the foreseeable future. The payment of any cash dividends in the distant future will depend upon our revenues and earnings, if any, capital requirements and general financial conditions. Further, if we effect any sort of debt financing in the future, our ability to declare dividends may be limited by restrictive covenants we may agree to in connection therewith. The payment of any cash dividends is within the discretion of our board of directors. However, our board of directors is not currently contemplating and does not anticipate declaring any such dividends in the foreseeable future.

**Performance Graph**<br>

Not required (as the Company is a smaller reporting company).

**Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities**<br>

Information concerning all securities of the Company sold by the Company during the year ended December 31, 2025 which were not registered under the Securities Act has been previously reported in the Company's Current Reports on Form 8-K throughout that year.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) **Use of Proceeds from Initial Registered Offering** 

The Company's initial registration statement that became effective under the Securities Act was its registration statement on Form S-4 (SEC File Number 333-279281), which was declared effective by the SEC on July 16, 2024. That registration statement was in respect of the Business Combination, which met the definition of a business combination under Rule 145(a) of the Securities Act. Accordingly, under paragraph (d)(1) of Rule 463 of the Securities Act, no disclosure is required with respect to any use of offering proceeds (if any) related to that registration statement.

#### Item 6. [Reserved]

#### Item 7 . Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

#### Introductory Note
*The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations (this "**MD&A**") should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this annual report. Some of the information contained in this discussion and analysis or set forth in this annual report, including information with respect to our plans, objectives, expectations, projections, and strategy for our business and related financing, includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. As a result of many factors, including those factors set out in "Item 1.A. Risk Factors" in this annual report, our actual results could differ materially from the results described in or implied by these forward-looking statements. See also the section entitled "Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" in this annual report.*

*Unless the context otherwise requires, references to the "Company," "we," "us" and "our" in this MD&A generally refer to: (i) for all periods preceding, and through the Closing of, the Business Combination, Silexion Israel; and (ii) for all periods following the Closing, Silexion.*

#### Overview

#### Operations and Financing Activities
We are a Cayman Islands exempted company that was originally formed for the purpose of effectuating the Business Combination and that now serves as a publicly traded holding company for each of Silexion (through which our operations are carried out) and Moringa (which has no operations). Our ordinary shares and warrants were initially listed on the Nasdaq Global Market and were subsequently transferred to the Nasdaq Capital Market, and are quoted for trading under the symbols "SLXN" and "SLXNW", respectively.

We conduct our operations primarily through our principal subsidiary, Silexion Israel, a clinical-stage biotechnology company engaged in the discovery and development of proprietary treatments for cancers driven by mutations in the Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog ("**KRAS**"). The KRAS gene, when mutated, plays a central role in many cancer types, such as pancreatic, colorectal, and lung cancers, and is therefore considered an oncogene. This oncogene instructs cells to produce the corresponding KRAS protein, which plays a key role in regulating cell growth signaling in cancer cells. While multiple pharmaceutical companies are pursuing strategies to inhibit KRAS and thereby limit its downstream signaling, our approach is differentiated by targeting the root cause of oncogenic signaling: we silence the KRAS oncogene itself, preventing the production of the oncogenic protein.

Our proprietary technology is designed to prompt tumor cells to degrade the messenger RNA (mRNA) that bridges the oncogene and the cellular protein synthesis machinery, utilizing small interfering RNA (siRNA) constructs that are chemically modified to enhance stability and cellular uptake while maintaining biological activity that interferes with mRNA function. Our lead product candidate, SIL204, is a second-generation siRNA engineered to suppress the production of mutated KRAS proteins. In pancreatic cancer, approximately 92% of patients have this mutated oncogene.

------

To address both localized and systemic disease, as well as the tumor's dense desmoplastic stroma, which limits the effectiveness of current treatments, our novel delivery approach, which we refer to as an Integrated Treatment Regimen, involves administering SIL204 both directly into the tumor and systemically via subcutaneous injection, in combination with standard-of-care chemotherapy. In a previous Phase 2 clinical trial with our first-generation siRNA, the combination of siRNA and standard-of-care chemotherapy demonstrated an overall survival benefit compared to standard-of-care chemotherapy alone. Building on preclinical advancements and regimen optimization, we believe SIL204 has the potential to further improve clinical outcomes. During 2025, we advanced operational readiness, including the onboarding of external vendors, with the initiation of clinical studies expected in the second quarter of 2026, contingent upon obtaining regulatory clearance.

As a clinical stage company, we have not realized any revenues to date. Prior to the Business Combination, we financed our operations primarily with the net proceeds from private offerings of our ordinary shares and convertible preferred shares, convertible financing agreements, and Simple Agreement for Future Equity (SAFE) financings, as well as royalty-bearing grants from the Israeli Innovation Authority (the "**IIA**"). Those grants totaled $5.8 million through December 31, 2025.

Upon the Closing of the Business Combination, we raised $2.0 million via a private investment in public entity (PIPE) financing, in which Moringa sold to Greenstar, LP, an affiliate of the Moringa sponsor, 1,482 newly issued Moringa ordinary shares at a price of $1,350.00 per share. Those shares were converted into an equivalent number of Silexion ordinary shares at the Closing. In connection with the Closing, we also entered into an ordinary share purchase agreement, dated August 13, 2024 and effective as of August 15, 2024 (the "**ELOC Agreement**") with White Lion Capital, LLC ("**White Lion**"), which provided us with an equity line of credit (the "**ELOC**") of up to $15.0 million. We utilized the ELOC for financings from time to time during the early periods following the Closing of the Business Combination, having raised an aggregate of $3.1 million from the ELOC through December 31, 2025, all of which was raised prior to December 31, 2024. The ELOC expired on December 31, 2025.

During 2025, we successfully transitioned to alternative financing transactions, raising capital via (i) public offerings of ordinary shares and/or pre-funded warrants, together with ordinary warrants, as well as (ii) ordinary warrant exercise transactions at the time of, or during periods that followed, those public offerings. We completed public offerings in January 2025 and September 2025, in which we raised gross proceeds of approximately $5.0 million and $6.0 million, respectively, before deducting placement agent fees and other offering expenses. In connection with the closing of the January 2025 public offering, investors exercised an aggregate of 42,683 ordinary warrants issued in the offering, which provided us with additional gross proceeds of $0.9 million. In connection with the closing of the September 2025 public offering, investors exercised an aggregate of 445,000 Series B ordinary warrants issued in the offering, which provided us with additional gross proceeds of $1.78 million. As a follow-up to the first such public offering, later in January 2025 and again at the start of August 2025, we completed transactions for the induced exercise of ordinary warrants, which raised gross proceeds of approximately $3.3 million and $1.8 million, respectively, before deducting placement agent fees and other offering expenses. H.C. Wainwright served as the exclusive placement agent for each of the foregoing public offering and warrant exercise transactions. Each of the foregoing financing transactions is described in further detail below in this MD&A under "*Liquidity and Capital Resources*."

In September 2025, we furthermore entered into the ATM Agreement with H.C. Wainwright, as sales agent or principal, under which we may raise up to $13,170,000 on an ongoing basis via sales of our ordinary shares into the open market via an at-the-market financing mechanism (the "**ATM**"), which we plan to use to finance our ongoing operations going forward. No sales of ordinary shares occurred under the ATM during 2025.

Since our inception, we have incurred significant operating losses. Our net losses were $11.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, and $16.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 (in the case of 2024, those losses consisted of Silexion Israel's net losses for all periods through the Business Combination, and the combined company's net losses for all periods afterwards). As of December 31, 2025, we had an accumulated deficit of $55.2 million (reflecting Silexion Israel's accumulated deficit for all periods through August 15, 2024 and the combined company's accumulated deficit from August 16, 2024 through December 31, 2025). We have not recognized any revenue to date.

------

We expect to continue to incur significant expenses and operating losses for the foreseeable future. The net losses we incur may fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter. Our expenses will depend on many factors, including the timing and extent of spending to further develop SIL204 and initiate clinical trials, support research and development efforts, investments in potential additional pipeline products, and increased overall compensation as we continue to hire additional personnel. Our expenses will increase if and as we:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| • | initiate a clinical trial powered for statistical significance with respect to SIL204; |
| • | seek marketing approvals for SIL204 in various territories; |
| • | apply for Orphan Drug Designation in both the U.S. and EU for our SIL204 product; |
| • | maintain, expand and protect our intellectual property portfolio; |
| • | hire additional operational, clinical, quality control and scientific personnel; |
| • | add additional product candidates to our pipeline; |
| • | add operational, financial and management information systems and personnel, including personnel to support our product development, any future commercialization efforts and our status as a public company; and |
|  | invest in research and development and regulatory approval efforts in order to utilize our technology as a platform focused on the silencing of the KRAS oncogene using RNA-interference therapeutics. |

---

#### Continued Nasdaq Listing
As described above in this "*Overview*" under "*Operations and Financing Activities*" and as detailed further in "*Liquidity and Capital Resources*" of this Part I, Item 7 below, our financial condition depends on, and is supported by, our ability to fund our operations on an ongoing basis, including through equity financings. Our Nasdaq listing facilitates that ability, as many potential investors or financing sources may be unwilling to consider an investment in our company on reasonable terms—or at all—if our ordinary shares and warrants were to be delisted from Nasdaq. Such a delisting would likely reduce the liquidity of our securities and increase volatility in our trading price.

*Remedy of Nasdaq Listing Deficiencies, Including Via Hearings Process*

As described below**,** over the course of 2025, we underwent a hearings process with Nasdaq, which together with various remedial actions that we took (including financing transactions and a reverse share split), restored our compliance with Nasdaq listing rules related to shareholders' equity and minimum bid price, thereby enabling us to avoid the delisting of our ordinary shares and public warrants from Nasdaq. As of September 25, 2025, we received confirmation from Nasdaq that we had restored our compliance with each such Nasdaq listing requirement, subject to an ongoing mandatory panel monitoring period until September 23, 2026. To the extent we are found to once again be out of compliance with the shareholders' equity requirement during the monitoring period, we will be subject to an immediate delisting notice, without entitlement to a cure or compliance period, subject to our right to request a new hearing before a hearings panel in order to prevent a delisting of our securities from Nasdaq. The threat of an immediate delisting from Nasdaq materialized on May 22, 2025, when we received a delisting notice from the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Department in respect of two listing deficiencies that we had been unable to remedy during the six-month cure period since we had initially been notified of those deficiencies, on November 19, 2024. The deficiencies related to our failure to maintain (i) a minimum Market Value of Listed Securities of $50 million and (ii) a minimum Market Value of Publicly Held Shares of $15 million, in each case for continued listing on the Nasdaq Global Market. We appealed the delisting notice to a Nasdaq hearings panel, and a hearing was held before the panel on June 26, 2025. On July 7, 2025, we received a favorable decision from the hearings panel, granting our request to remain listed on Nasdaq, subject to certain conditions. Pursuant to the favorable outcome, the listings of our ordinary shares and warrants were transferred from the Nasdaq Global Market to the Nasdaq Capital Market.

------

Under the terms of the decision reached by the hearings panel, the continued listing of our securities on the Nasdaq Capital Market was conditioned on our fulfillment of the terms of the compliance plan that we had presented to the panel in connection with the June 26, 2025 hearing. That plan was designed to enable us to achieve at least $2.5 million of shareholders' equity (the "**shareholders' equity requirement**") and thereby comply with the Equity Standard for listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market on a continued basis. The terms of the compliance plan required, in primary part, that on or before September 19, 2025, we demonstrate in a report filed under the Exchange Act our restoration of compliance with, and our expected long-term compliance with, the shareholders' equity requirement, as to be demonstrated in a balance sheet not older than 60 days to be included in such a filing.

We provided the above-referenced demonstration of our restoration of compliance with the shareholders' equity requirement in our current report on Form 8-K that we filed with the SEC on September 15, 2025, in which we described that we had completed a series of financing transactions, which had collectively increased our shareholders' equity on a pro forma basis as of July 31, 2025 by $10.3 million, to approximately $9.41 million as of September 15, 2025.

In addition to becoming subject to, and remedying, a Nasdaq shareholders' equity listing deficiency, we also became subject to, and subsequently remedied, a Nasdaq minimum bid price deficiency. On July 18, 2025, we received a letter from Nasdaq notifying us that for the 30 consecutive business days preceding the letter, the closing bid price of our ordinary shares was below the minimum $1.00 per share bid price required for continued listing on Nasdaq. The letter indicated that the Nasdaq panel would consider the bid price deficiency in its decision as to whether to enable us to remain listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market. Following shareholder approval at our reconvened annual general meeting on July 14, 2025, we effected a 1-for-15 reverse share split on July 29, 2025, which raised the price of our ordinary shares above $1.00, and we have maintained a closing price above $1.00 since that time, thereby remedying the minimum bid price deficiency.

As a result of our remedy of each of the shareholders' equity and minimum bid price deficiencies, on September 23, 2025, we received a letter from Nasdaq confirming that we had demonstrated compliance with the requirements related to each such prior deficiency. As described in that letter, we are subject to a mandatory panel monitoring period until September 23, 2026. If, during that one-year monitoring period, the Nasdaq staff determines that our company is again out of compliance with the shareholders' equity requirement, we would not be permitted to submit a plan of compliance or be granted additional time to regain compliance, nor would we be afforded an applicable cure or compliance period. Instead, the staff would issue a "Delist Determination Letter," and we would have the opportunity to request a new hearing before the same panel from our June 2025 hearing or, if that panel is unavailable, before a newly convened hearings panel.

While we have successfully addressed all immediate compliance concerns, we must continue to maintain compliance with all Nasdaq Capital Market listing standards. There can be no assurance that we will be able to maintain compliance with the shareholders' equity requirement or all other applicable standards for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market on an ongoing basis.

#### Authorized Share Capital Increases
At an extraordinary general meeting originally held on August 12, 2025, and reconvened on August 19, 2025, our shareholders approved an increase in our authorized share capital from $20,000, divided into 1,481,482 ordinary shares with a par value of $0.0135 each, to $121,500, divided into 9,000,000 ordinary shares with a par value of $0.0135 each, thereby providing us with additional capacity to issue equity securities. This increase in our authorized share capital has enabled us to raise required capital through various financing activities and to maintain compliance with the Nasdaq shareholders' equity requirement, including our completion of the September 2025 public offering and sales of ordinary shares under the ATM Agreement.

We have called an additional extraordinary general meeting, originally scheduled for March 16, 2026, at which an additional increase our authorized share capital – from $121,500, divided into 9,000,000 ordinary shares with a par value of $0.0135 each, to $796,500, divided into 59,000,000 ordinary shares with a par value of US$0.0135 each. That further increase is necessary to enable us to raise additional required capital through financing activities and maintain compliance with the Nasdaq shareholders' equity requirement. As of the date of this Annual Report, we did not obtain a quorum at the initially scheduled date for that meeting, and the meeting has been adjourned for one week, until March 23, 2026. At the reconvened meeting, if a quorum is not present within half an hour from the time designated for the meeting to commence, the shareholders present (regardless of how many) shall be considered a quorum, and we may proceed to present, and conduct a vote on, the authorized share capital increase.

#### Components of our Results of Operations

#### Operating Expenses
*Research and Development Expenses*

Research and development expenses include costs directly attributable to the conduct of research and development programs, and consist primarily of the cost of payroll and related expenses, payroll taxes and other employee benefits including share-based compensation related to employees, subcontractors costs, preclinical and clinical trials costs and consulting fees.

We expect to continue to invest in research and development to develop SIL204, including hiring additional employees and continuing the research and development of that product candidate. As a result, we expect that our research and development expenses will continue to increase in the future.

*General and Administrative Expenses*

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel costs, including share-based compensation related to directors and employees, patent application fees, office space rental costs, and maintenance expenses, external professional service costs, including legal, accounting, audit, insurance, human resource services, travel expenses and other consulting fees.

Our general and administrative expenses have increased, and we expect that they will continue to increase in the future, as we fund our continued research and development activities, primarily due to increased headcount to support anticipated growth in the business and due to incremental costs associated with operating as a public company, including costs to comply with the rules and regulations applicable to public companies, such as costs related to compliance and reporting obligations pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC and stock exchange listing standards, public relations, insurance and professional services.

#### Financial expenses, net
Finance expenses consist primarily of changes in fair value of financial liabilities measured at fair value, interest expenses (income), and exchange rate differences expenses.

#### Results of Operations
We are providing within this section a discussion and analysis of our historical statement of operations data in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP. Because we are a smaller reporting company (as defined under Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act), our financial statements and related financial data in this annual report only cover each of the two years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. Similarly, the discussion and analysis contained in this Item 7 is limited to a comparison of our results of operations for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. For our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023, and for a discussion and analysis of our results for that year, and a comparison of those results with those of the year ended December 31, 2024, please see our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, which we filed with the SEC on March 18, 2025 (including Item 7 therein). Our financial statements included elsewhere in this annual report, as well as the financial data and related discussion and analysis contained in this MD&A, relate to our financial condition and results of operations as of, and for the year ended, December 31, 2025, as compared to the corresponding information for Silexion (through the Closing of the Business Combination) and/or the combined company (following the Closing) as of, and for the year ended, December 31, 2024.

---

Research and development expenses increased by approximately $1.3 million, or 22.4%, to $7.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $5.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase resulted mainly from an increase in subcontractors and consultants expenses in an aggregate amount of $3.1 million related to GMP production batches of the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) and formulation development intended to support initiation of the planned human clinical trial expected in the second quarter of 2026. In addition, we experienced an increase in payroll and payroll-related expenses of $0.6 million due to additional headcount and increases in salaries following the Closing of the Business Combination in August 2024, which were reflected for the full year in 2025 compared to only a partial-year period in 2024. This increase was partly offset by a decrease in non-cash share-based compensation expenses of $2.4 million, related to employee grants issued around the time of the Closing of the Business Combination in August 2024, which did not recur in 2025.

General and administrative expenses decreased by approximately $2.3 million, or 33.8%, to $4.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $6.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The decrease resulted mainly from a decrease in non-cash share-based compensation expenses in an amount of $3.3 million, related to employees and directors' grants issued around the time of the Closing of the Business Combination in August 2024, which expenses did not recur in 2025. This decrease was partly offset by an increase in professional services costs in an amount of $0.5 million, primarily related to investor relations, press release activities, director compensation, legal and other expenses associated with the costs of operating as a public company for a full year in 2025, compared to only a partial-year period in 2024 following the Closing of the Business Combination in August 2024. In addition, payroll and payroll-related expenses increased by approximately $0.4 million due to headcount growth and higher salaries following the Closing of the Business Combination in August 2024, which were reflected for the full year in 2025 compared to only a partial-year period in 2024.

*Financial expenses, net*

Financial expenses, net decreased by approximately $3.6 million, or 92.3%, to $0.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $3.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The decrease was mainly due to a decrease in an amount of $4.8 million attributable to the one-time loss upon completing the Business Combination in August 2024, which loss did not recur in 2025, offset in part by an increase in financial expenses due to revaluation income of financial instruments (mainly promissory notes) in an amount of $1.4 million in the year ended December 31, 2025.

*Net loss*

Net loss decreased by approximately $4.6 million, or 27.9%, to $11.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $16.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The decrease was primarily due to decreases in our general and administrative expenses, and financial expenses, including significant decreases in non-cash items related to share-based compensation, and transaction costs related to the Closing of the Business Combination in August 2024, which were not repeated in 2025, as partially offset by an increase in our research and development expenses.

#### Liquidity and Capital Resources

#### Overview
Our capital requirements depend on many factors, including the timing and extent of spending to further develop SIL204 and conduct pre-clinical and clinical trials, support research and development efforts, investments in potential additional pipeline products, and increased overall compensation as we continue to hire additional personnel. For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, we had net losses of $11.9 million and $16.5 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2025, our cash and cash equivalents totaled $6.0 million.

------

To date, our principal sources of liquidity have evolved together with our progression as a company. As a private company, we (i.e., Silexion Israel) raised proceeds from private offerings of our ordinary shares and convertible preferred shares, grants from the Israeli Innovation Authority, issuance of convertible financing agreements (CFA), and SAFE financings. Upon the Closing of the Business Combination, we raised funds from a PIPE in which Greenstar, LP, an affiliate of the Moringa sponsor, purchased Moringa ordinary shares that converted automatically into Silexion ordinary shares. Following the Closing, as a public company with ordinary shares and warrants registered under the Exchange Act and trading on Nasdaq, we have obtained financings in various manners, including the following, which are described in greater detail below:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• registered public offerings of ordinary shares and pre-funded warrants, along with ordinary warrants, in January 2025 and September 2025 (as described below under "*Public Offerings via H.C. Wainwright")*;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• warrant exercise inducement transactions, which were completed in January 2025 and August 2025 (as described below under "*Induced Warrant Exercise Transactions");* 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• additional warrant exercises, such as in connection with the January 2025 and September 2025 public offerings, when investors exercised following the closing of those offerings an aggregate of 42,683 ordinary warrants and 445,000 Series B ordinary warrants issued in those respective offerings; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• ongoing financings via the ELOC Agreement (all of which were completed during the year ended December 31, 2024).

We furthermore anticipate additional ongoing financings via the ATM that we have established through the ATM Agreement with H.C. Wainwright, which provides for the potential sale of up to $13.17 million of our ordinary shares under our Shelf Registration Statement.

Based on our current business plan, we believe our current cash and cash equivalents, and anticipated cash flow from operations, will not be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash requirements for the next 12 months, but rather only for several months, from the filing date of this Annual Report. We will need to raise additional capital to finance our operations, expand our business and pipeline, maintain our compliance with the Nasdaq shareholders' equity requirement, or for other reasons.

#### Assumption Regarding Going Concern
Our audited consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 included in this annual report note that there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern as of such date; and in its report accompanying our audited consolidated financial statements included herein, our independent registered public accounting firm included an explanatory paragraph stating that our recurring losses from operations and our cash outflows from operating activities raise substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern. This means that our management and our independent registered public accounting firm have expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue our operations without an additional infusion of capital from external sources. Our audited consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis and do not include any adjustments that may be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern. If we are unable to finance our operations, our business would be in jeopardy and we might not be able to continue operations and might have to liquidate our assets. In that case, investors might receive less than the value at which those assets are carried on our consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, and it is likely that investors would lose all or a part of their investment.

We have lease obligations and other contractual obligations and commitments as part of our ordinary course of business. See "*Note 5: Operating Leases*" and "*Note 7: Commitments and Contingent Liabilities"* to our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 included in this annual report for information about our lease obligations.

------

We did not have during the periods presented, and we do not currently have, any off-balance sheet arrangements involving commitments or obligations, including contingent obligations, arising from arrangements with unconsolidated entities or persons that have or are reasonably likely to have a material current or future effect on our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, cash requirements or capital resources.

#### Public Offerings via H.C. Wainwright
On January 15, 2025 and January 17, 2025, and again on September 11, 2025 and September 12, 2025, we priced and closed, respectively, registered public offerings in which we offered and sold, on a best efforts basis, with H.C. Wainwright as the sole placement agent (the "**January 2025 Offering**" and "**September 2025 Offering**, collectively, the "**HCW Offerings**"):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• in the January 2025 Offering, (i) 143,067 ordinary shares, (ii) 103,847 pre-funded warrants to purchase up to 103,847 ordinary shares and (iii) 246,914 ordinary warrants to purchase up to 246,914 ordinary shares, at purchase prices of $20.25 per ordinary share and accompanying ordinary warrant, and $20.2485 per pre-funded warrant and accompanying ordinary warrant; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• in the September 2025 Offering, (i) 1,392,250 ordinary shares, (ii) 107,750 pre-funded warrants to purchase up to 107,750 ordinary shares, (iii) 1,500,000 Series A ordinary warrants, each to purchase one ordinary share, and (iv) 1,500,000 Series B ordinary warrants, each to purchase one ordinary share (the Series A ordinary warrants and Series B ordinary warrants are collectively referred to as "**ordinary warrants** "), at a purchase price of $4.00 per share and accompanying two ordinary warrants, and $3.9999 per pre-funded warrant and accompanying two ordinary warrants.

Aggregate gross proceeds from the January 2025 Offering and September 2025 Offering (without taking into account any proceeds from any future exercises of warrants) were approximately $5.0 million and $6.0 million, respectively.

The pre-funded warrants from the HCW Offerings were immediately exercisable at exercise prices of $0.0015 and $0.0001 for the January 2025 Offering and September 2025 Offering, respectively, per ordinary share, and did not expire until exercised in full. The ordinary warrants from the January 2025 Offering and September 2025 Offering have exercise prices of $20.25 and $4.00, respectively, per underlying ordinary share, and were immediately exercisable. The ordinary warrants from the January 2025 Offering and Series A ordinary warrants from the September 2025 Offering could be exercised for five years from issuance, while the Series B ordinary warrants from the September 2025 Offering could be exercised for a period of 12 months from issuance.

Holders of the pre-funded and ordinary warrants do not have the right to exercise any portion of the warrants if the holder (together with parties whose beneficial ownership of ordinary shares would be aggregated with the holder's) would beneficially own ordinary shares in excess of 4.99% (or, at the election of the holder, 9.99%) of the outstanding ordinary shares following exercise.

Certain investors in the HCW Offerings entered into definitive securities purchase agreements with us, under which we agreed to abide by certain customary standstill restrictions for periods of 60 days following the closing of those offerings. In addition, subject to limited exceptions, the agreements provided that for a period of one year following the closing of the respective HCW Offerings, we will not effect or enter into an agreement to effect a "variable rate transaction", as defined in the agreements.

In accordance with our engagement agreement with H.C. Wainwright , we paid to H.C. Wainwright aggregate cash placement agent fees equal to 7.0% of the gross proceeds received by us in the HCW Offerings, as well as management fees equal to 1.0% of the gross proceeds raised in the HCW Offerings. We also reimbursed H.C. Wainwright for certain of its expenses in connection with the offerings. Pursuant to the engagement agreement, we also issued to H.C. Wainwright (or its designees) 17,284 and 105,000 placement agent warrants to purchase up to 17,284 and 105,000 ordinary shares, respectively, in the two HCW Offerings, representing 7.0% of the sum of the shares and pre-funded warrants sold in the offerings. Those placement agent warrants have exercise prices of $25.3125 and $5.00, respectively, per ordinary share (representing 125% of the public offering price per ordinary share and accompanying ordinary warrant(s) in the respective offerings), are exercisable for five years from the date of the commencement of sales in the HCW Offerings, and otherwise reflect substantially the same terms as the ordinary warrants sold in the HCW Offerings.

------

The net proceeds to us from the HCW Offerings were approximately $4.25 million and $5.20 million before deducting estimated offering expenses payable by us. We are using the proceeds from the HCW Offerings to advance our pre-clinical and clinical studies, and for general corporate purposes.

#### Induced Warrant Exercise Transactions
On January 29, 2025 and July 31, 2025, we entered into inducement offer letter agreements with holders of 148,102 and 152,106, respectively, of our existing ordinary warrants. Those warrants had been issued either in the January 2025 Offering or, in the case of the July 2025 inducement offer letter agreement, pursuant to the January 2025 warrant exercise inducement transaction. Under the warrant inducement offer letter agreements, on January 30, 2025, and August 1, 2025, the holders exercised those warrants for cash and purchased 148,102 and 152,106 ordinary shares, respectively, at cash exercise prices of $20.25 and $11.57 per share, respectively, and in consideration of our issuance to them of new ordinary warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 148,102 and 304,212 ordinary shares, respectively, at exercise prices of $22.50 and $11.32, respectively, per share. In the January 2025 warrant exercise inducement transaction, the exercising holders also paid us an additional $1.88 per new ordinary warrant issued to them. We received aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $3.3 million and $1.8 million from the exercise of the existing warrants by the holders in January 2025 and August 2025, respectively, before deducting placement agent fees and other offering expenses payable by us.

We engaged H.C. Wainwright to act as our exclusive placement agent in connection with the transactions contemplated by the inducement letters and paid H.C. Wainwright cash fees equal to 7.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds received from the holders' exercise of their existing ordinary warrants, as well as management fees equal to 1.0% of the gross proceeds from the exercise of those warrants. We also issued to H.C. Wainwright or its designees placement agent warrants to purchase up to 10,368 and 10,647 ordinary shares, respectively (representing 7.0% of the existing ordinary warrants that were exercised in the respective transactions), which have the same terms as the new warrants issued in the transactions, except that the placement agent warrants have exercise prices equal to $27.66 per share and $14.46 per share, respectively (125% of (i) the sum of the exercise price of the existing warrants exercised, and the additional $1.88 paid per new ordinary warrant, in the January 2025 transaction, and (ii) the $11.57 exercise price of the existing warrants exercised, in the August 2025 transaction).

Similar to the new ordinary warrants issued to investors in these transactions, the placement agent warrants became exercisable either immediately from the date of issuance (in the case of the January 2025 induced warrant exercise transaction), or upon approval by our shareholders of an increase in our authorized share capital, which occurred on August 19, 2025 at our reconvened extraordinary general meeting (in the case of the August 2025 induced warrant exercise transaction). All new warrants and placement agent warrants issued in both transactions remain exercisable until the 24-month anniversary of the effective date of the resale registration statements filed to cover the resale of shares underlying the new warrants and placement agent warrants. We also paid certain fees and expenses in connection with the induced warrant exercise transactions.

Upon exercise for cash of any new warrants issued to investors in the transactions, in certain circumstances, we will (i) pay to H.C. Wainwright a cash fee of 7.0% of the aggregate gross exercise price, and a cash management fee of 1.0% of the aggregate gross exercise price, and (ii) issue to H.C. Wainwright warrants representing 7.0% of the ordinary shares issued to the investors upon such cash exercise of the new warrants.

------

We are using the net proceeds from these transactions for general corporate purposes and R&D activities.

#### Other Warrant Exercises
In addition to induced warrant exercise transactions, we have also raised funds via additional exercises of ordinary warrants. On January 30, 2025, in connection with the closing of the January 2025 Offering, investors exercised an aggregate of 42,683 ordinary warrants issued in that offering and we issued 42,683 underlying ordinary shares. The gross proceeds to our company from those warrant exercises was $0.9 million. On September 12, 2025, in connection with the closing of the September 2025 Offering, investors exercised an aggregate of 445,000 Series B ordinary warrants issued in that offering and we issued 445,000 underlying ordinary shares. The gross proceeds to our company from those warrant exercises was $1.78 million.

#### At-The-Market Offering Agreement
Prospectively, we expect to raise additional capital on an ongoing basis under our ATM. On September 26, 2025, we entered into the ATM Agreement with H.C. Wainwright, as sales agent or principal, providing for the offer and sale from time to time of up to $13,170,000 of our ordinary shares under the ATM, which ATM offering was registered under our Shelf Registration Statement. No sales were made under the ATM Agreement during the third or fourth quarters of 2025, in part due to customary standstill restrictions on subsequent offerings imposed upon us in connection with our September 2025 public offering. In the first quarter of 2026, through the date of this annual report, we have not sold any ordinary shares under the ATM.

#### ELOC Financing
In connection with the Closing of the Business Combination, we entered into the ELOC Agreement with White Lion, which agreement was amended as of January 14, 2025. Under the ELOC Agreement, we had the right to request to sell to White Lion, and White Lion was required to purchase, via private placement transactions, up to $15.0 million of our ordinary shares from time to time after the Closing under the ELOC, up until December 31, 2025, subject to certain limitations and conditions as described therein.

We granted registration rights to White Lion pursuant to an accompanying registration rights agreement, dated August 15, 2024, by and between our company and White Lion, for which we filed a related registration statement on Form S-1 (SEC file number 333-282017).

In consideration of the commitments of White Lion under the ELOC Agreement, we issued to White Lion an aggregate of $337,500 of our ordinary shares based on the closing price of the ordinary shares on September 16, 2024, which amounted to 2,707 ordinary shares.

Through December 31, 2025 (when the ELOC Agreement expired), we issued and sold an aggregate of 50,915 ordinary shares (which includes the foregoing 2,707 ordinary shares issued as a commitment fee) to White Lion under the ELOC Agreement for aggregate proceeds to us of approximately $3.1 million, all of which sales occurred prior to December 31, 2024.

In light of our ability to sell ordinary shares under the ATM Agreement, we did not seek to extend or renew the ELOC Agreement at the time of its expiration on December 31, 2025.

------

#### Settlement of Amounts Due Under Marketing Agreement with EarlyBird
Prior to the Closing of the Business Combination, Moringa reached agreement with EarlyBirdCapital, Inc., the representative of the underwriters of Moringa's initial public offering **("EarlyBird**" or "**EBC**") on the reduction, to $1.6 million, in the aggregate, of the fee payable to EBC under the Business Combination Marketing Agreement, dated February 16, 2021, entered into by Moringa with EarlyBird in connection with Moringa's initial public offering (the "**Marketing Agreement**"). Pursuant to the final invoice provided by EBC under the Marketing Agreement, at the Closing, Moringa paid $350,000 of cash to EBC from Moringa's trust account (in which remaining proceeds from Moringa's IPO had been maintained), and we issued to EBC a convertible note (the "**EarlyBird Convertible Note**"), which was a convertible promissory note, due December 31, 2025, in an amount of $1.25 million to be paid by us to EBC in cash and/or via conversion of outstanding amounts into ordinary shares.

The EarlyBird Convertible Note bore interest at a rate of 6% per annum and by its terms was to mature on December 31, 2025. Through January 31, 2025, we made aggregate payments of $407,556 to EBC in respect of some of the amounts due from us under the EarlyBird Convertible Note as a result of amounts raised by us under the ELOC and the January 2025 Offering.

On March 13, 2025, we entered into a letter agreement with EBC, pursuant to which we paid to EBC an additional amount of $400,000 (plus $15,000 for EBC's legal expenses) (the "**Settlement Prepayment Amount**") and EBC agreed to the partial conversion and retirement of all remaining amounts due under the EarlyBird Convertible Note. Under that letter agreement, EBC agreed that the $880,202 principal and interest amount outstanding under the note as of the date of the letter agreement (the "**Outstanding Amount**") would be retired in consideration of: (i) our payment in cash of the Settlement Prepayment Amount; (ii) EBC's conversion of a certain amount of the principal and interest due under the EarlyBird Convertible Note (the "**Conversion Amount**") via the issuance by us to EBC of 18,519 ordinary shares (the "**EBC Settlement Shares**"), which Conversion Amount would equal the net proceeds to be received by EBC from the sale of the EBC Settlement Shares; and (iii) the payment in cash by us to EBC of any remaining amount due under the EarlyBird Convertible Note after deducting the Settlement Prepayment Amount and the Conversion Amount from the Outstanding Amount (the "**Remaining Amount**"). The resale by EBC of the EBC Settlement Shares was registered under our effective registration statement on Form S-1 (SEC file number 333-282556) as required by the EarlyBird Convertible Note.

On March 17, 2025, EBC sold all 18,519 EBC Settlement Shares under the foregoing Form S-1 registration statement for a Conversion Amount of $344,204, and on March 18, 2025, we paid the Remaining Amount of $135,998 that was due to EBC, resulting in the retirement of the EarlyBird Convertible Note on March 18, 2025.

#### Issuance of, and Conversions Under, A&R Sponsor Promissory Note
Effective as of the Closing, we issued to the sponsor, and the sponsor accepted, in amendment and restatement, and replacement, in their entirety, of all existing promissory notes issued by Moringa to the sponsor from Moringa's initial public offering until the Closing (and as to which the obligations of Moringa were assigned to Silexion upon the Closing), the A&R Sponsor Promissory Note in an amount of $3,433,000, which reflected the total amount owed by Moringa to the sponsor through the Closing Date. The maturity date of the A&R Sponsor Promissory Note is the 30-month anniversary of the Closing Date (i.e., February 15, 2027).

Amounts outstanding under the A&R Sponsor Promissory Note may be repaid (unless otherwise decided by us) only by way of conversion into ordinary shares ("**Note Shares**") in accordance with the terms set forth in the form of A&R Sponsor Promissory Note. Silexion and the sponsor may also convert amounts outstanding under the A&R Sponsor Promissory Note at the price per share at which we conduct equity financings following the Closing, subject to a minimum conversion amount of $100,000, in an amount of Note Shares constituting up to thirty percent (30%) of the number of ordinary shares issued and sold by us in such equity financing. The sponsor may also elect to convert amounts of principal outstanding under the note into ordinary shares at any time following the 24-month anniversary of the date of the Closing, subject to a minimum conversion of $10,000, at a price per share equal to the volume weighted average price of the ordinary shares on the principal market on which they are traded during the 20 consecutive trading days prior to the conversion date.

------

On September 15, 2025, in connection with the September 2025 Offering, we converted $1.8 million of principal outstanding under the A&R Sponsor Promissory Note into 450,000 ordinary shares that we issued to the Moringa sponsor. As of September 30, 2025, the remaining principal amount outstanding under the A&R Sponsor Promissory Note was $1,633,000.

The Moringa Sponsor (which is controlled by our director, Ilan Levin) has notified us that it disputes the conversion into Ordinary Shares under the terms of the convertible note and has demanded repayment of the note in full*.* We believe that the conversion was carried out in strict compliance with the substantive and procedural requirements of the note, and reject any claim to the contrary.

#### Government Grants
Our research and development efforts have been financed, in part, through royalty-bearing grants from the Israeli Innovation Authority (the "**IIA**"). As of December 31, 2025, we had received IIA royalty-bearing grants totaling approximately $5.8 million.

We are committed to pay royalties to the IIA at a rate of approximately 3.0% to 5.0% of the sales of all of our product candidates and other related revenues generated from such projects, that were developed, in whole or in part, using the IIA royalty-bearing grants we received under IIA programs up to the total amount of royalty-bearing grants received, linked to the U.S. dollar and bearing annual interest at rates prescribed by the IIA's rules and guidelines.

We may in the future apply to receive additional grants from the IIA. However, we cannot predict whether we will be entitled to any future grants, or the amounts of any such grants.

Under the Israeli Innovation Law, research and development programs that meet specified criteria and are approved by a committee of the IIA are eligible for grants. A company that receives a royalty-bearing grant from the IIA is typically required to pay royalties to the IIA on income generated from products incorporating IIA-funded know-how (including income derived from services associated with such products and from IIA-funded know-how), up to 100% of the U.S. dollar-linked royalty-bearing grant amount plus interest.

The obligation to pay royalties is contingent on actual income generated from such products and services. In the absence of such income, no payment of royalties is required.

As of December 31, 2025, the total royalty amount that may be payable by our company is approximately $5.8 million ($6.7 million, including interest).

*Cash Used in Operating Activities*

Net cash used in operating activities increased by approximately $2.4 million, or 28.6%, to $10.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $8.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. This increase was primarily attributable to increases in payments related to R&D subcontractors and consultants, payroll and payroll-related expenses, and professional services costs.

*Cash Provided by Financing Activities*

Net cash provided by financing activities increased by $10.5 million, or 205.9%, to approximately $15.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $5.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. That increase was mainly due to an increase in cash received from (i) the HCW Offerings, consisting of the January 2025 Offering and September 2025 Offering, in an aggregate amount of $11.0 million, net of $1.5 million of cash issuance costs related to those offerings, (ii) the exercise of warrants (January 2025 and September 2025), in an aggregate amount of $2.6 million, and (iii) the January 2025 and August 2025 warrant exercise inducement transactions, in an aggregate amount of $5.0 million, net of $0.7 million cash issuance costs related to those warrant exercise inducement transactions (each, as described above under "*Liquidity and Capital Resources*"). Those transactions in 2025 were offset, in part, by (i) a decrease of $0.4 million related to payments that we made under the EarlyBird Convertible Note in 2025, (ii) a decrease in proceeds from issuance of ordinary shares under the ELOC, which we did not utilize in 2025, after having raised $3.1 million under it in 2024, and (iii) a decrease of $2.3 million in cash received from financing transactions that we entered into upon the Closing of the Business Combination in August 2024, which transactions did not recur in 2025.

#### Funding Requirements
We expect to devote substantial financial resources to our ongoing and planned activities, particularly further development of SIL204 as we conduct our planned clinical trials.

Identifying potential product candidates and conducting pre-clinical testing and clinical trials is a time-consuming, expensive, and uncertain process that takes years to complete, and we may never generate the necessary data or results required to obtain marketing approval and achieve product sales. In addition, our product candidates, if approved, may not achieve commercial success. For additional information, please refer to Part I, Item 1A. "*Risk Factors*" in this annual report, including "*Risks Related to Our Financial Condition and Capital Requirement—s*- *We have never generated any revenue from product sales and may never be profitable"* and *"Risks Related to the Research and Development of Silexion's Product Candidates—- We are heavily dependent on the success of our product candidates*...".

We expect our expenses to increase substantially in connection with our ongoing activities, particularly as we advance our clinical trials for SIL204. In addition, if we obtain marketing approval for SIL204 in any indication or for any other product candidate we are developing or may develop in the future, we expect to incur significant commercialization expenses related to product manufacturing, sales, marketing, and distribution. Furthermore, following the Closing of the Business Combination, we have been incurring, and expect to continue to incur, additional costs associated with operating as a public company. Accordingly, we will need to obtain substantial additional funding.

------

Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• materials costs;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• regulatory pathway; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• human clinical trial costs.

As of December 31, 2025, we had cash and cash equivalents of $6.0 million. Based on our current cash balance, as well as our history of operating losses and negative cash flows from operations, combined with our anticipated use of cash to, among other things, (i) fund the preclinical and clinical development of our products, (ii) identify and develop new product candidates, and (iii) seek approval for SIL204 and any other product candidates we may develop, our management has concluded that we do not have sufficient cash to fund our operations for 12 months from the issuance date of our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 included in this annual report without additional financing, and, as a result, there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

In making this determination, applicable accounting standards prohibited us from considering the potential mitigating effect of plans that have not been fully implemented as of the date of our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025, including, without limitation, plans to raise additional capital. Our financial information throughout this annual report, and our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 contained herein have been prepared on a basis that assumes that we will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. This financial information and our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

We currently estimate that our existing cash and cash equivalents are sufficient to fund business operations for only several months from the filing date of this Annual Report.

We have based these estimates and expectations on assumptions that may prove to be wrong, and our operating plan may change as a result of many factors currently unknown to us. We could not, as of the December 31, 2025 balance sheet date of the audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025, determine the exact level of funds that will be available to us upon potential equity financings. Our expected use of funds represents our intentions based upon our current plans and business condition, which could change in the future as our plans and business condition evolve and the level of funding available to us becomes clearer. In addition, changing circumstances could cause us to consume capital significantly faster than we currently anticipate, and we may need to spend more than currently expected because of circumstances beyond our control. As a result, we could deplete our capital resources sooner than we currently expect. In addition, because the successful development of SIL204 and any studies or other product candidates that we pursue is highly uncertain, at this time we cannot reasonably estimate or know the nature, timing and costs of the efforts that will be necessary to complete the development of any product candidate.

Until such time, if ever, as we can generate substantial revenues from product sales, we expect to finance our cash needs through a combination of public and private equity offerings, including registered public offerings similar to the HCW Offerings completed in January 2025 and September 2025, warrant exercise inducement transactions similar to those completed in late January 2025 and early August 2025, ordinary-course sales of ordinary shares into the market pursuant to the ATM Agreement, strategic alliances, collaborations, and marketing, distribution, or licensing arrangements. However, adequate additional financing may not be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all, and the availability of such financing may be impacted by the economic climate and market conditions.

------

Reliance on public offerings, warrant exercise inducement transactions, the ATM, or other similar types of equity financing as a source of ongoing funding for our operations have in the past involved, and could again in the future involve, significant issuances of ordinary shares by us that could cause the following impacts (among others):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• significant dilution to the equity interests of our current shareholders;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a deemed change of control of our company due to the issuance of a substantial number of ordinary shares, which may affect, among other things, our ability to use our net operating loss carry forwards, if any, and could result in a change in the officers and directors of our company relative to our current officers and directors, to the extent any shareholders build up significant beneficial ownership from ordinary shares issued pursuant to public offerings, warrant exercises, the ATM or conversions under the A&R Sponsor Promissory Note;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• delaying or preventing a change of control of our company by diluting the share ownership or voting rights of a person seeking to obtain control; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• an adverse effect on prevailing market prices for our ordinary shares or warrants.

#### Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
For a description of our significant accounting policies, see Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 included in this annual report.

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions in certain circumstances that affect the amounts reported in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 and related footnotes. Actual results may differ from these estimates. We base our judgments on our experience and on various assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances.

Of our policies, the following are considered critical to an understanding of our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025, as they require the application of subjective and complex judgment, and involve critical accounting estimates and assumptions impacting our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025.

The critical accounting estimates relate to the following:

#### Valuation of Promissory Notes
As part of the Business Combination, we issued to the Moringa sponsor, as well as EarlyBird, promissory notes, which we irrevocably designated to be measured at fair value. The EarlyBird Convertible Note was retired on March 18, 2025. The fair value of the A&R Sponsor Promissory Note is measured using a discount rate based on a B rated US dollar zero-coupon discount curve, plus a credit spread of 7.56%. The discount rate was determined with reference to benchmark interest rates of secured loans reported by venture capitals, which were then used to extract our entity-specific credit spread. Since the A&R Sponsor Promissory Note is not senior secured, one notch downgrade was applied. The expected timing of conversion or redemption of the note has been determined using our management's forecast.

#### Recent Accounting Pronouncements
See Note 2v on page F-18 to our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 included in this annual report for a description of recent accounting pronouncements applicable to our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025.

------

#### Smaller Reporting Company Status
We are a "smaller reporting company," meaning that the market value of our ordinary shares held by non-affiliates is less than $700 million and our annual revenue was less than $100 million during the most recently completed fiscal year. We will continue to be a smaller reporting company if either (i) the market value of our shares held by non-affiliates is less than $250 million or (ii) our annual revenue was less than $100 million during the most recently completed fiscal year and the market value of our shares held by non-affiliates is less than $700 million. As a smaller reporting company, we have presented only the two most recent fiscal years of audited financial statements in this annual report and we have reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation.

#### Emerging Growth Company Status
We are an "emerging growth company" as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act. Section 102(b)(1) of the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the "**JOBS Act**") exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can choose not to take advantage of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies, and any such election to not take advantage of the extended transition period is irrevocable.

We have elected to take advantage of the benefits of the extended transition period for new or revised financial accounting standards. We will remain an emerging growth company until the earliest of (i) the last day of the fiscal year in which the market value of our ordinary shares that are held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the end of that year's second fiscal quarter, (ii) the last day of the fiscal year in which we have total annual gross revenue of $1.235 billion or more during such fiscal year (as indexed for inflation), (iii) the date on which we have issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt in the prior three years, or (iv) December 31, 2029. We expect to continue to take advantage of the benefits of the extended transition period, although we may decide to early adopt such new or revised accounting standards to the extent permitted by such standards. Our status as an emerging growth company may make it difficult or impossible to compare our financial results with the financial results of another public company that is either not an emerging growth company, or an emerging growth company that has chosen not to take advantage of the extended transition period exemptions because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

#### Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
The Company is a smaller reporting company, as defined under paragraph (f) of Item 10 of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC, and is not required to provide the information under this Item.

#### Item 8 . Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.
Please see the F- pages to this Annual Report, which contain the consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

#### Item 9 . Changes in and Disagreements With Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.
Not applicable.

#### Item 9A . Controls and Procedures.

#### Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain "disclosure controls and procedures" as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act, that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our senior management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(b) and 15d-15(b). Based upon this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report.

#### Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting; Attestation Report of the Registered Public Accounting Firm.
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S generally accepted accounting principles. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officers and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013). Based on this evaluation, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2024.

We are an emerging growth company, and are furthermore neither an accelerated filer nor a large accelerated filer, in each case as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act. Therefore, we are not required under Section 202 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (and the SEC rules and regulations thereunder) to provide an attestation report on management's assessment of our internal control over financial reporting from a registered public accounting firm in this Annual Report.

#### Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Based on the evaluation conducted by our senior management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we have concluded that there has been no change that occurred during the three-month period ended December 31, 2025 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

#### Item 9B. Other Information.
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) ***Unreported Information***. The Company does not have any information that was required to be disclosed in a Current Report on Form 8-K during the fourth quarter of the year ended December 31, 2025, that has not yet been reported.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) ***Insider trading arrangements***. During the three-month period ended December 31, 2025, none of our directors or officers adopted, modified or terminated a "Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement" or a "non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement" as such terms are defined under Item 408 of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC.

#### Item 9C . Disclosure Regarding Foreign Jurisdictions that Prevent Inspections.
Not applicable.

#### Directors
**Ilan Hadar**, 56, was appointed as Chief Executive Officer of Silexion, serving on a full-time basis, effective upon the Business Combination, and has served as our (previously, Silexion Israel's) Chairman of the Board since May 2024. Previously, he served as Managing Director of Silexion Israel from April 2022 until the Business Combination. Mr. Hadar has over 20 years of multinational managerial and corporate experience with pharmaceutical and high-tech companies, as described below, over which time period he has acquired the experience and skills to serve as a valuable member of the board of directors of our company. Immediately prior to his roles at Silexion Israel and our company, Mr. Hadar served as the Chief Executive Officer of Painreform Ltd (Nasdaq: PRFX) from November 2020 until the consummation of the Business Combination in August 2024. Prior to joining Painreform and Silexion Israel, Mr. Hadar served as Country Manager Israel and Chief Financial Officer at Foamix Pharmaceuticals Ltd. (currently, Nasdaq: VYNE) from 2014 until August 2020, where he was instrumental in building the organization and launching new innovative topical drugs in the U.S., and also focused on capital markets and mergers and acquisitions. Before his role at Foamix, Mr. Hadar was Finance Director at Pfizer PFR Pharmaceuticals Israel Ltd., where he oversaw all commercial, financial and operational activities of the local entity of the large pharmaceutical company. Prior to his tenure at Pfizer, Mr. Hadar served as Finance Manager at HP Indigo Ltd., a world-leading company in digital printing, and before that, served as Finance Director at BAE Systems, the third-largest defense company in the world, where he was responsible for all financial activities of BAE Systems Israel. From 1998 to 2006, Mr. Hadar was Chief Financial Officer at Mango DSP, a global leader of Intelligent Video Solutions. Mr. Hadar served on the board of directors of Kadimastem, a public Israeli biopharmaceutical company from 2019 to 2022. He received his MBA in Finance and Business Entrepreneurship and BA from The Hebrew University in Jerusalem, Israel. We believe Mr. Hadar is qualified to serve on our board of directors due to his extensive knowledge as our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and his extensive commercial, financial and managerial experience with high-tech and pharmaceutical companies, both private and public.

------

**Dror J. Abramov,** 65, was appointed as a director of Silexion effective upon the consummation of the Business Combination. Mr. Abramov's experience of over 15 years in multiple roles in changing and growing companies and markets within dynamic environments, and in particular his multi-disciplinary experience in R&D, consulting, taxes, sales, business development, finance and government, lend to his being an appropriate board member of our company. Mr. Abramov has served as Managing Director of Hewlett Packard Inc. Israel since 2015. Mr. Abramov held several other management positions in Hewlett Packard Inc. Israel from 2006 to 2015, including finance director, general manager of imaging and printing divisions and general manager of printing and personal systems division. From 2002 through 2006, Mr. Abramov served as Chief Financial Officer of Applied Materials UK and Applied Materials Israel, both part of Applied Materials, Inc. (Nasdaq: AMAT), a nanomanufacturing company that supplies equipment, services and software for the manufacture of semiconductor chips for electronics. From 2000 through 2002, Mr. Abramov served as Vice President of business management at Avaya Communication, a cloud communications and workstream collaboration technology company. From 1997 until 2000, Mr. Abramov held positions in Mainsoft Corporation, first as director of finance and operations and later as general manager. From 1991 through 1997, Mr. Abramov served as consultant and manager at Maron, Sobel, Shor & Co., an Israeli CPA firm. Mr. Abramov is a licensed CPA and holds a Bachelor of Accounting, Master of Business Administration and Bachelor of Science in physics and computer sciences, all three degrees from Tel Aviv University. We believe Mr. Abramov is qualified to serve on our board of directors due to his extensive financial and business management experience.

**Ruth Alon**, 74, became a director of Silexion effective upon the consummation of the Business Combination. Ms. Alon's international experience of over 30 years in the high-tech medical industry and with Israeli life sciences companies, in particular, make her a valuable member of our board of directors. Ms. Alon is the Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Medstrada, which was started in 2016. From 1997 until 2016, Ms. Alon served as a General Partner in Pitango Venture Capital, where she headed the life sciences activities and helped to facilitate the acquisition of several of the company'sportfolio companies. Currently, Ms. Alon also serves on the board of directors of a number of private and public companies as a member or chairperson, Alpha Tau medical (Nasdaq: DRTS), Brainsgate, Treos Bio, Angiolutions and CorNeat Vision. Ms. Alon previously worked on Wall Street where she held senior positions as a senior medical device analyst with Montgomery Securities (from 1981 to 1987) and Kidder Peabody & Co. (from 1987 to 1993). She also managed her own independent consulting business in San Francisco from 1995 to 1996, providing broad-based services to early-stage companies and venture capitalists in the medical devices industry. Ms. Alon was also instrumental in the establishment, in 2005, of Israel Life Science Industry (ILSI), a not-for-profit organization which represented, as of 2005, the mutual goals of approximately 700 Israeli life science companies. She is the Co-Founder of IATI, an umbrella organization established in 2012, representing Israel's High Tech and Life Sciences industries. Ms. Alon holds a B.A. in Economics from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, an M.B.A. from Boston University, and an M.Sc. from the Columbia University School of Physicians and Surgeons. We believe Ms. Alon is qualified to serve on our board of directors given her above-described extensive experience in the high-tech medical industry and with Israeli life sciences companies, in particular.

**Ilan Levin**, 60, who was the co-founder, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Moringa, was appointed as a director of Silexion after its formation in April 2024 and has continued as a director following the consummation of the Business Combination. Mr. Levin has been involved, for approximately 25 years, as an executive and venture capital/private equity investor in high-tech, Israel-related ventures. His experience as an executive and board member in managing growth companies that develop technology, and his knowledge of that industry in Israel in particular, suit him well to serve as a director of Biomotion Sciences. From 2000 to 2018, Mr. Levin was a member of the Board and Executive Committee of Objet Ltd., which as a result of a merger with Stratasys, Inc. in 2012, formed Stratasys Ltd. (Nasdaq: SSYS), the pioneer and global leader in 3D printing. During his tenure at Objet/Stratasys, Mr. Levin held various positions including President, Vice Chairman and from 2016 to 2018, Chief Executive Officer. From 2004 to 2009, Mr. Levin was the Chief Executive Officer of CellGuide, a developer of software-based GPS for mobile devices. Since 1997, Mr. Levin has also served as a member of the board of directors and as an advisor for a wide variety of Israel-based technology-related companies, including currently serving as Chairman of Vision Sigma (TLV: VISN: IT), an Israel-based real estate and investment company. Early in his career, Mr. Levin was a practicing attorney focusing on corporate and securities related matters. In addition to his role as our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Levin also serves as the sole director and sole equity owner of an Israeli company that serves as the sole general partner of the Sponsor. Mr. Levin earned an LL.B. from Tel Aviv University and a B.A.Sc. in Industrial Engineering from the University of Toronto. We believe Mr. Levin is qualified to serve on our board of directors given his above-described experience in managing growth companies that develop technology, and his knowledge of that industry in Israel in particular.

------

**Avner Lushi**, 59, was appointed as a director of Silexion effective upon the consummation of the Business Combination. His experience of over 20 years and skills acquired in his managing roles at an Israeli life sciences venture capital fund and in life sciences investment banking make him suitable to provide support to our company as a member of our board of directors. Mr. Lushi co-founded Guangzhou Sino-Israel Bio-industry Investment Fund (GIBF), which currently includes two approximately $100 million funds focused on introducing Israeli and other foreign companies in the field of life sciences to the Chinese market, in which he also serves as a Managing Partner & CEO of the GP since 2016. From 2004 to 2015, Mr. Lushi served as a Partner and Managing Director of Israel Healthcare Ventures (IHCV), a prominent Israeli life sciences venture capital fund. Before joining IHCV, Mr. Lushi was the Co-Founder & CEO of Life Sciences Transaction Support Ltd. (LTS), a PwC subsidiary dealing with life sciences investment banking. Since 2005, Mr. Lushi has served as an independent director on the boards of eleven public companies, including, currently, Brainsway Ltd. (Nasdaq: BWAY) and Ginegar Plastic Products Ltd. In addition, he serves as a board member of several private companies as part of his role at GIBF. From 1997 to 2001, prior to turning to the private sector, he held increasingly senior roles within the Israeli Prime Minister's Chamber and the Israeli Supreme Court. Mr. Lushi holds an LLM in Law from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, LLB in Law and a BA in Economics from the Haifa University. We believe Mr. Lushi is qualified to serve on our board of directors due to his extensive executive and board experience with life sciences companies.

**Shlomo Noy**, MD PhD, 73, was appointed as a director of Silexion effective upon the consummation of the Business Combination. Professor Noy's international-level expertise in healthcare management, tech transfer, building ecosystems and focusing hospitals on research and clinical trials provides important knowledge to our board of directors in the realm of Israeli research and clinical trial activities. Professor Noy has served as Chief Medical Officer of GIBF since January 2017. Professor Noy served as the Director of the Rehabilitation Hospital at Sheba Medical Center from 1993 to 2017 and Vice President of Research and Development and Academic Affairs at Sheba Medical Center from 2000 to 2017. Prof. Noy was a Professor at Sackler School of Medicine at Tel-Aviv University from 1993 to 2016. Prof. Noy serves as a board member of several private companies as part of his role at GIBF. Prof. Noy possesses 25 years' experience in health care management and is active in promoting research and education at an Israeli national level as well as at an international level. Prof. Noy received his MD from the Hebrew University, Hadassah Medical School, Jerusalem, Israel, and completed his MBA at the European School of Business Administration (INSEAD) Fontainebleau, France, and holds a PhD degree from Tel-Aviv University, Faculty of Medicine and Management. We believe Mr. Noy is qualified to serve on our board of directors due to his extensive medical and health care management experience.

**Amnon Peled**, PhD, 66, was appointed as a director of Silexion in December 2024. Professor Peled has served as an associate professor at Hadassah Medical Center, Jerusalem since August 2000. Professor Peled also served as Director of the Gene Therapy Institute at Hadassah Medical Center from October 2021 to February 2024. He specializes in cytokine research, hematopoietic stem cell biology, inflammation, and cancer, leading the development of therapies now in Phase II/III trials. Professor Peled served as Founder and CEO of Biokine Therapeutics, and as its Chief Scientific Officer, from July 2000 to February 2024, where he advanced the CXCR4 antagonist BKT140/BL8040. Prof. Peled is an author of over 100 publications and holder of 200+ patents and patent applications, and holds a Bachelor's degree in agriculture from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, a Master's degree in cell biology and histology from Tel Aviv University, and a Ph.D. from the Weizmann Institute. He completed postdoctoral training at Harvard Medical School and the Weizmann Institute. We believe that Professor Peled's extensive knowledge of our product candidate and our industry make him well-suited to serve on our board of directors.

#### Overall

------

#### Composition of the Silexion Board
Our business and affairs are managed under the direction of our Board. Under the terms of the Articles, the Board may be composed of between three and nine directors, as may be amended from time to time exclusively by ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law, being a resolution passed by a simple majority of the shareholders of Silexion as, being entitled to do so, vote in person or by proxy at a general meeting (an "**Ordinary Resolution**"). The size of the Silexion Board was set by our shareholders as seven members effective upon the Closing. Ilan Hadar serves as Chairman of the Board.

Pursuant to the Articles, our directors are appointed by an Ordinary Resolution at an annual general meeting. Unless the Board resolves that the election of nominees of the Board (referred to as "**Nominees**") or of nominees of any shareholders entitled to present such nomination (referred to as "**Alternate Nominees**") will be determined by plurality vote, the Nominees or Alternate Nominees shall be appointed by Ordinary Resolution at the annual general meeting at which they are proposed for election.

#### Shareholder Nominees and Proposals
Under the Articles, shareholders may propose an Alternate Nominee for election to the Board by following the procedure designated for shareholders to bring any business before the annual general meeting generally. Under that procedure, a shareholder must deliver notice of such nomination or proposed item of business to the principal executive offices of the Company not later than 90 days nor earlier than 120 days prior to the one-year anniversary of our previous year's annual general meeting. If we did not hold an annual general meeting during the previous year, or if the date of the current year's annual general meeting has been changed by more than 30 days from the date of the previous year's annual general meeting, such shareholder's notice must be so delivered no later than the deadline to be set by the Board, with such deadline being a reasonable time (as determined by the Board) before the Company begins to print and send its related proxy materials for the current year's annual general meeting. The Chairman of the Board may refuse to acknowledge the introduction of any shareholder proposal not made in compliance with the foregoing procedures.

Each such shareholder's notice proposing an Alternate Nominee must set forth: (a) the name and address of (i) the shareholder who intends to make the nomination, and (ii) the Alternate Nominee; (b) a representation that the shareholder is a holder of record of ordinary shares entitled to vote at the upcoming annual general meeting (including the number of shares held of record by the shareholder) and intends to appear in person or by proxy at the meeting to nominate the Alternate Nominee; (c) a description of all arrangements or understandings between the shareholder and each Alternate Nominee and any other person (naming such person) pursuant to which the nomination is be made by the shareholder; (d) the consent of the Alternate Nominee to serve as a director of Silexion if so appointed and (e) a declaration signed by the Alternate Nominee declaring that there is no limitation under applicable law for the appointment of such nominee and that all of the information that is required under applicable law to be provided to Silexion in connection with such an appointment has been provided. The Silexion Board may refuse to acknowledge the nomination of any person not made in compliance with the foregoing procedure.

Under the charter of the corporate governance and nominating committee (described below under "*Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee"*)***,*** any Alternate Nominee proposed by a shareholder will be considered by that committee in accordance with the criteria developed by that committee, whereby the committee will determine whether to recommend the nomination of the Alternate Nominee by the Board as a whole for election at the next annual general meeting.

#### Officers
Silexion's Chief Executive Officer is responsible for the Company's day-to-day management. The Chief Executive Officer is appointed by, and serves at the discretion of, the Silexion Board, subject to his employment agreement. All other executive officers are proposed for appointment by the Chief Executive Officer, subject to approval by the Silexion Board, and will be subject to the terms of any applicable employment or consulting agreements that we may enter into with them.

------

#### Board Committees
The Silexion Board has established an audit committee, a compensation committee and a nominating and corporate governance committee, each of which has the composition and the responsibilities described below. Each of these committees operates under a written charter, approved by the Board and effective upon the Closing, that satisfies the applicable Nasdaq rules, copies of which are available on the investor relations portion of our website. Members will serve on these committees until their resignation or until otherwise determined by the Board. The Board may establish other committees as it deems necessary or appropriate from time to time.

#### Audit Committee
Our audit committee consists of Dror J. Abramov, Ruth Alon, and Professor Amnon Peled, with Mr. Abramov serving as chair. Rule 10A-3 of the Exchange Act and the Nasdaq listing standards require that our audit committee be composed entirely of independent directors. The Nasdaq listing standards require that the audit committee be composed of at least three members. The Silexion Board has determined that each of Messrs Abramov and Peled, and Ms. Alon, meets the definition of "independent director" for purposes of serving on the audit committee under Rule 10A-3 of the Exchange Act and the Nasdaq listing standards, and also meets the financial literacy requirements of the Nasdaq listing standards. In addition, the Board has determined that Mr. Abramov qualifies as an "audit committee financial expert" within the meaning of the SEC regulations.

The primary purpose of the audit committee is to discharge the responsibilities of the Silexion Board with respect to our corporate accounting and financial reporting processes, systems of internal control and financial statement audits and to oversee our independent registered public accounting firm. The principal functions of the audit committee include, among other things:

● helping the Board oversee our corporate accounting and financial reporting processes;

● managing the selection, engagement, qualifications, independence, and performance of a qualified firm to serve as the independent registered public accounting firm to audit our financial statements;

● reviewing and discussing the scope and results of the audit with the independent registered public accounting firm, and reviewing, with management and the independent accountants, our interim and year-end operating results;

● obtaining and reviewing a report by the independent registered public accounting firm at least annually that describes our internal quality control procedures, any material issues with such procedures and any steps taken to deal with such issues when required by applicable law;

● establishing procedures for employees to submit concerns anonymously about questionable accounting or audit matters;

● overseeing our policies on risk assessment and risk management;

● overseeing compliance with our code of business conduct and ethics;

● reviewing related person transactions; and

● approving or, as required, pre-approving audit and permissible non-audit services to be performed by the independent registered public accounting firm.

#### Compensation Committee
Our compensation committee consists of Dror J. Abramov, Professor Amnon Peled, and Ruth Alon. Ms. Alon serves as the chair of the compensation committee. The Silexion Board has determined that each of Messrs. Abramov and Peled, and Ms. Alon, meets the definition of "independent director" for purposes of serving on the compensation committee under the Nasdaq listing standards, including the heightened independence standards for members of a compensation committee.

------

The primary purpose of our compensation committee is to discharge the responsibilities of the Board in overseeing our compensation policies, plans and programs and to review and determine the compensation to be paid to our executive officers, directors and other senior management, as appropriate. The principal functions of the compensation committee include, among other things:

● reviewing, approving and determining, or making recommendations to the Board regarding the compensation of our chief executive officer, other executive officers and senior management;

● reviewing, evaluating and recommending to the Board succession plans for our executive officers;

● reviewing and recommending to the Board the compensation paid to our non-employee directors;

● administering our equity incentive plans and other benefit programs;

● reviewing, adopting, amending and terminating incentive compensation and equity plans, severance agreements, profit sharing plans, bonus plans, change-of-control protections and any other compensatory arrangements for our executive officers and other senior management; and

● reviewing and establishing general policies relating to compensation and benefits of our employees, including our overall compensation philosophy.

#### Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee
We have appointed a corporate governance and nominating committee that currently consists of Dror J. Abramov, Ilan Levin, Professor Amnon Peled, and Ruth Alon. The chair of the committee will be chosen from among the committee's members. The Board has determined that each of Messrs. Abramov, Peled and Levin, and Ms. Alon, meets the definition of "independent director" under the Nasdaq listing standards.

Our corporate governance and nominating committee is responsible for, among other things:

● identifying and evaluating candidates, including the nomination of incumbent directors for reelection and nominees recommended by shareholders, to serve on the Board;

● considering and making recommendations to the Board regarding the composition and chairmanship of the committees of the Board;

● instituting plans or programs for the continuing education of the Board and the orientation of new directors;

● developing and making recommendations to the Board regarding corporate governance guidelines and matters;

● overseeing our corporate governance practices;

● overseeing periodic evaluations of the Board's performance, including committees of the Board; and

● contributing to succession planning.

------

#### Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance
Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our officers, directors and persons who beneficially own more than ten percent of our ordinary shares to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the SEC. These reporting persons are also required to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.

Based solely on our review of such forms furnished to us and written representations from certain reporting persons, we believe that all (if any) filing requirements applicable to our executive officers, directors and greater than 10% beneficial owners during the year ended December 31, 2025 were fulfilled in a timely manner, except as described under "*Delinquent Section 16(a) Reports*" below.

*Delinquent Section 16(a) Reports*

Each of our non-employee/ non-affiliate directors who received an equity grant from the Company on February 9, 2025 (consisting of (i) 794 restricted share units (RSUs), under which an equivalent number of ordinary shares may become issuable upon vesting and settlement, and (ii) 935 options to purchase an equivalent number of underlying ordinary shares at a price of $18.90 per share) belatedly reported that grant on Form 4, which was filed in each case on December 31, 2025. Those non-employee/ non-affiliate directors consist of Dror Abramov, Ruth Alon, Avner Lushi, Shlomo Noy, and Amnon Peled. In addition, our director Ilan Levin and the Moringa sponsor (in which Mr. Levin holds a controlling interest), which is a 10% shareholder of ours, belatedly reported on Form 4 the acquisition by the sponsor of 450,000 ordinary shares on September 15, 2025, upon our conversion of amounts due to the sponsor under the A&R Sponsor Promissory Note, which report on Form 4 was filed on January 27, 2026.

#### Code of Ethics and Business Conduct
Prior to the completion of the Business Combination, we adopted a written code of ethics and business conduct that applies to our directors, officers and employees, including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions. A copy of the code is posted on the investor relations portion of our website at <u>www.silexion.com/investors</u>. In addition, we intend to post on that website all disclosures that are required by law or Nasdaq listing standards concerning any amendments to, or waivers from, any provision of the code.

#### Insider Trading Policies and Procedures
We have adopted an insider trading policy that governs the purchase, sale, and other transactions in our securities by directors, senior management, and employees, which policy is reasonably designed to promote compliance with applicable insider trading laws, rules and regulations, and the Nasdaq listing standards applicable to us. A copy of our insider trading policy serves as Exhibit 19.1 to this Annual Report and is incorporated herein by reference.

#### Item 11. Executive Compensation.

#### Silexion
*Unless the context requires otherwise, references in this "Executive Compensation" section to "we," "our," "us" and the "Company" generally refer to our company on a consolidated basis, for all periods following the completion of the Business Combination (on August 15, 2024), and to our wholly-owned subsidiary, Silexion Therapeutics Ltd., an Israeli company ("Silexion Israel"), and its subsidiaries, for all periods prior to the completion of the Business Combination.*

#### Overview
The following tables and accompanying narrative set forth information about the compensation, for 2025 and 2024, provided to our chief executive officer (or person serving in an equivalent position) and the two most highly compensated executive officers (other than our chief executive officer) who were serving as executive officers as of December 31, 2025, each of whom also served as an executive officer of Silexion Israel prior to the completion of the Business Combination. These executive officers consist of: Ilan Hadar, who was Silexion Israel's Managing Director and now serves as Silexion's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer; Mirit Horenshtein Hadar, who was Silexion Israel's EVP Finance and now serves as Silexion's Chief Financial Officer and Secretary; and Dr. Mitchell Shirvan, who was Silexion Israel's- and is now Silexion's- Chief Scientific and Development Officer. These executive officers are referred to in this section as our "named executive officers" or "NEOs."

------

This discussion may contain forward-looking statements that are based on our current plans, considerations, expectations and determinations regarding future compensation programs, in the period immediately following the Business Combination. Actual compensation programs that we adopt in the future may differ materially from the plans summarized in this discussion.

#### Summary Compensation Table

#### Narrative Disclosure to Summary Compensation Table

#### Base Salary
The named executive officers receive base salaries to compensate them for services rendered to us. The base gross salary payable to each named executive officer is intended to provide a fixed component of compensation reflecting the executive's skill set, experience, role, and responsibilities. The annual base salaries for Ilan Hadar, Mirit Horenshtein Hadar and Dr. Mitchell Shirvan, for 2025 and 2024 were $382,398 and $240,560 for Mr. Hadar, $250,297and $233,532 for Ms. Horenshtein Hadar, and $278,108 and $190,286 for Dr. Shirvan, respectively.

------

#### Equity Compensation
We did not grant any new equity compensation to the named executive officers during the year ended December 31, 2025.

In February 2026, following the automatic increase (effective as of January 1, 2026) to the number of ordinary shares available under our 2024 Equity Incentive Plan (described further below) due to the automatic "evergreen" provision of that plan, our compensation committee approved certain "catch-up" equity grants to our named executive officers, who had not received any equity grants since the Closing of the Business Combination and whose percentage of equity holdings in our company were below customary levels. Pursuant to that approval by the compensation committee, Ilan Hadar, Dr. Mitchell Shirvan and Mirit Horenshtein Hadar received grants of restricted share units (RSUs) for 64,350, 49,726 and 49,726 underlying ordinary shares, respectively, which RSUs were fully vested upon grant and settled immediately for the underlying ordinary shares.

From time to time prior to 2025, we have also granted equity awards under the Silexion Therapeutics Ltd. 2013 Equity Incentive Plan, which was replaced by the Silexion Therapeutics Ltd. 2023 Equity Incentive Plan (the "**2013 Plan**" and "**2023 Plan**", respectively, collectively referred to as the "**Silexion Israel Plans**"), as incentives to attract, retain and motivate our named executive officers. All compensation amounts appearing in the Summary Compensation Table above in the "Stock Awards" column reflect grants under the Silexion Israel Plans. During 2024, we granted RSUs that could be settled for 1,121, 420 and 981 ordinary shares of Silexion Israel, to Ilan Hadar, Mirit Horenshtein Hadar, and Dr. Mitchell Shirvan, respectively (each such number of Silexion Israel ordinary shares reflects the exchange ratio in the Business Combination or the subsequent reverse share splits of Silexion). The vesting of those RSUs accelerated upon the Closing of the Business Combination, entitling each such officer to receive Silexion ordinary shares in accordance with the exchange ratio upon the Closing. The expense that we realized for each year in respect of each RSU award to the applicable NEO is reflected in the "Stock Awards" column of the above Summary Compensation Table.

During 2022, Silexion Israel granted 956 and 478 options to purchase Silexion Israel ordinary shares to Ilan Hadar and Dr. Mitchell Shirvan, respectively (each such number of options reflects the equity exchange ratio in the Business Combination and the subsequent reverse share splits of Silexion). Vesting of those options was to occur over a period of 48 months, provided that Ilan Hadar or Dr. Mitchell Shirvan, as applicable, remains engaged by Silexion Israel (or a Silexion Israel affiliate), and is subject to the Silexion Israel Plans. Upon consummation of an initial public offering of Silexion Israel's securities or an M&A Transaction (as defined in Silexion Israel's articles of association), which included the Business Combination, the vesting of those options was to accelerate, such that all unvested options were to immediately vest, provided that such IPO or M&A Transaction was to be consummated after January 1, 2023. That acceleration of vesting occurred upon the Closing of the Business Combination on August 15, 2024. The expense that we realized for each year in respect of the option award to the applicable NEO is reflected in the "Stock Awards" column of the above Summary Compensation Table.

#### Employment Agreements
The base salary and other compensation paid to our NEOs reflected in the above Summary Compensation Table is provided to them pursuant to employment agreements to which our wholly-owned subsidiary Silexion Israel is party with each of them.

Mr. Hadar's employment agreement, as amended, with Silexion Israel provides for him a gross monthly salary of NIS 110,000, which amounts to an annual base salary of $382,398 (based on the average exchange rate for 2025, as published by the Bank of Israel), customary disbursements toward his providence fund, further education fund and severance pay fund, and other fringe benefits commensurate with such position.

------

Mirit Horenshtein Hadar's employment agreement with Silexion Israel provides for her a gross monthly salary of NIS 72,000, which amounts to an annual base salary of $250,297 (based on the average exchange rate for 2025, as published by the Bank of Israel), as well as customary disbursements toward her providence fund, further education fund and severance pay fund, and other fringe benefits commensurate with such position.

Dr. Mitchell Shirvan's employment agreement with Silexion Israel provides for him a gross monthly salary of NIS 80,000, which amounts to an annual base salary of $278,108 (based on the average exchange rate for 2025, as published by the Bank of Israel),, as well as customary disbursements toward his providence fund, further education fund and severance pay fund, and other fringe benefits commensurate with such position.

#### Silexion Israel 2013 Equity Incentive Plan and Silexion Israel 2023 Equity Incentive Plan
The equity awards for which compensation expense is reflected in the above Summary Compensation Table for our NEOs have been granted under equity incentive plans. Silexion Israel (and, following the Business Combination, Silexion) has maintained the Silexion Israel Plans in order to provide additional incentives for employees, directors and consultants, and to provide incentives to attract, retain and motivate eligible persons whose present and potential contributions are important to Silexion Israel's (and Silexion's) success. The 2013 Plan was adopted on July 25, 2013 and was replaced by the 2023 Plan, which was adopted on April 4, 2023. For a complete description of the 2013 Plan and the 2023 Plan, please see "*Silexion Israel Share Incentive Plans*" below.

The Silexion Israel Plans provide for grants of options to purchase ordinary shares of Silexion Israel (following the Business Combination, Silexion), shares, restricted shares and RSUs. As described above, during 2022, Silexion Israel granted option awards under the Silexion Israel Plans to Ilan Hadar and Dr. Mitchell Shirvan, and during 2024, Silexion Israel granted RSUs to Ilan Hadar, Mirit Horenshtein Hadar, and Dr. Mitchell Shirvan.

Immediately prior to the effective time of the merger of Merger Sub 1 with and into Silexion Israel pursuant to the Business Combination, all outstanding Silexion Israel options and Silexion Israel RSUs accelerated and became fully vested (and, in the case of RSUs, settled for underlying shares). At the effective time of that merger, all Silexion Israel options outstanding immediately prior to the merger automatically and without any action on the part of any Silexion Israel option holder or beneficiary thereof, were assumed by Silexion, and each such Silexion Israel option was converted into an option to purchase Silexion ordinary shares (based on the equity exchange ratio for Silexion Israel under the Business Combination Agreement).

In addition, immediately prior to the completion of the Business Combination, Silexion adopted the 2024 Equity Incentive Plan (described below), which provides for the grant of equity-based incentive awards to its employees, directors, office holders, service providers and consultants in order to incentivize them to increase their efforts on behalf of Silexion and to promote the success of Silexion's business.

#### Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-End
The following table provides information regarding equity awards held by Silexion's named executive officers that were outstanding as of December 31, 2025. The awards listed in this table were granted under the Silexion Israel Plans, which are summarized above under "*- Narrative Disclosure to Summary Compensation Table - Silexion Israel 2013 Equity Incentive Plan and Silexion Israel 2023 Equity Incentive Plan*" and below under "*Silexion Israel Share Incentive Plans*".

In December 2024, our compensation committee and Board approved an annual compensation package for our non-employee/non-affiliate directors (consisting of all directors other than our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Ilan Hadar, and our consultant, Ilan Levin), which was effective for the 2025 year. That compensation package consisted of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Annual cash compensation: $30,000

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Annual equity compensation valued at $30,000, to be split 50%-50% between RSUs ($15,000 value) and options ($15,000 value)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Annual cash fee for Board committee members: $1,500 per committee

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Annual cash fee for Board committee chairpersons (in lieu of committee membership fees): $3,000 per committee.

The amounts set forth for each director (other than Messrs. Hadar and Levin) in the above Director Compensation table are based on our non-employee/non-affiliate director annual compensation package, as applied to the particular director based on his or her participation in Board committees.

#### Silexion Executive Compensation
Following the Closing, we have been developing an executive compensation program that is designed to align compensation with our business objectives and the creation of shareholder value, while enabling us to attract, retain, incentivize and reward individuals who contribute to the long-term success of Silexion. Decisions regarding the executive compensation program are recommended by our compensation committee and approved by our Board.

#### Silexion Equity Compensation
It is anticipated that equity-based compensation will continue to be an important element of executive compensation as we proceed in the longer-term period following the consummation of the Business Combination, in order to maintain a strong link between executive incentives and the creation of shareholder value. During the year ended December 31, 2025, we did not grant any new equity compensation to our executive officers, due to limitations on our available authorized share capital and the pressing need for us to utilize our available authorized share capital primarily for financing purposes, which enabled us to restore and maintain compliance with Nasdaq listing requirements related to shareholders' equity. In the previous year (2024), upon the consummation of the Business Combination, we granted 5,242 RSUs, in the aggregate, to directors of Silexion and employees of Silexion and its subsidiaries (of which 1,471 RSUs were granted to Silexion directors) as a means of incentivizing them and aligning their interests with those of the shareholders of the Company. We have furthermore utilized the initial additional 156,333 ordinary shares that were added to the pool of shares for the 2024 Equity Incentive Plan (described below) pursuant to the automatic increase to that plan as of January 1, 2026 under the existing "evergreen" provision of that plan and granted fully-vested RSUs to our executive officers in February 2026. We await the outcome of the proposed increase to the "evergreen" provision under the 2024 Equity Incentive Plan at our extraordinary general meeting that was scheduled for March 16, 2026, which was adjourned by one week. If that increase is approved by our shareholders, the total automatic increase to the pool of shares under that plan will be by 594,900 ordinary shares for 2026 (which includes the 156,333 ordinary shares that were already added to the pool), and future automatic annual increases under that plan will yield a total number of reserved shares under all of our equity incentive plans equal to 10% of our issued and outstanding share capital on a fully diluted basis as of each January 1. Our annual evergreen increases will be an important means to supply the equity compensation arrangements for our executive officers in 2026 and beyond.

#### Silexion Israel Share Incentive Plans

#### 2013 Share Option Plan
*Shares Reserved under the 2013 Share Option Plan.* The total number of authorized but unissued ordinary shares available for issuance under the 2013 Share Option Plan (the "**2013 Plan**") (which we assumed from Silexion Israel as part of the Business Combination) is 1,579. All of those ordinary shares are subject to outstanding grants. Upon the termination of the 2013 Plan (which occurred prior to the Business Combination), any unissued ordinary shares that were then available under the 2013 Plan ceased to be reserved for purposes of the 2013 Plan, other than ordinary shares underlying outstanding options under the 2013 Plan, which remain subject to the terms of the plan.

------

*Administration.* Our Board, or a duly authorized compensation committee of the Board, has the power to administer the 2013 Plan. The committee has the authority, subject to applicable law and our Articles, to interpret the terms of the 2013 Plan and any option agreements entered into thereunder, determine and amend the terms of respective option agreements, including the exercise price of an option, the fair market value of the underlying ordinary shares, the time and vesting schedule applicable to the option, accelerate or amend the vesting schedule applicable to an option, and take all other actions and make all other determinations necessary for the administration of the 2013 Plan.

*Eligibility.* The 2013 Plan provides for granting options under various tax regimes, including, without limitation, in compliance with Section 102 or Section 3(i) of the Israeli Income Tax Ordinance (New Version), 5721-1961, as amended (the "**Ordinance**"), and for awards granted to Silexion Israel's United States employees or service providers, including those who are deemed to be residents of the United States for tax purposes, Section 422 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "**Code**") and Section 409A of the Code.

*Options.* All options granted pursuant to the 2013 Plan are evidenced by an option agreement, in a form that was previously approved. The option agreement sets forth the terms and conditions and the number of shares to which the option relates and the type of option granted thereunder, the purchase price per underlying share and the vesting schedule by which such option shall become exercisable.

Unless otherwise determined by the committee or the Board and as stated in the option agreement, and subject to the conditions of the 2013 Plan, options become exercisable under the following schedule: 25% of the shares covered by the option on the first anniversary of the date on which such option was granted and 12.5% of the shares covered by the option at the end of each subsequent six-month period during the second, third and fourth years from the date of grant, with the committee and/or Board possessing the exclusive authority to accelerate the periods for exercising an option.

Each option shall expire 10 years from the date of the grant thereof, or five years with respect to an incentive stock option, unless a shorter term of expiration has been otherwise designated.

*Grants to U.S. Residents.* The 2013 Plan provides for the grant of options in accordance with the Code, including incentive stock options and nonqualified stock options.

Options granted under the 2013 Plan to Silexion Israel employees who are U.S. residents may qualify as "incentive stock options" within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code, or may be non-qualified stock options. The exercise price of an option may not be less than the par value of the share for which such option is exercisable. The exercise price of an Incentive Stock Option may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of the underlying share on the date of grant or such other amount as may be required pursuant to the Code, and in the case of Incentive Stock Options granted to ten percent (10%) shareholders, not less than 110%.

*Exercise.* An option under the 2013 Plan may be exercised by providing us with a written notice of exercise and full payment of the exercise price for such shares underlying the award, if applicable, in such form and method as may be determined by the committee (and, in the case of an option granted to an Israeli resident with a trustee arrangement, the trustee) and as permitted by applicable law.

*Transferability.* No option shall be assignable, transferable or given as collateral, nor may any right with respect to an option be given to any third party whatsoever, and during the lifetime of the option-holder each and all of such option-holder's rights to purchase ordinary shares thereunder shall be exercisable only by the option-holder.

------

*Termination of Employment.* An option may be exercised after the date of termination of an option-holder's service or employment with Silexion Israel or any of its affiliates or termination of an affiliate's status as such only with respect to the number of options already vested and unexpired at the time of such termination according to the vesting and expiration periods of the options set forth in the 2013 Plan, or under a different period prescribed by the committee or by the Board and specified in the relevant option agreement, provided, however, that (i) such termination is without cause, in which case the options shall be exercisable within not more than 90 days from the effective date of such termination, or (ii) such termination is the result of death or disability of the option-holder, in which case the options shall be exercisable within 12 months, and in the event of death, the option shall be exercisable by the option-holder's estate, all in accordance the 2013 Plan. If termination of employment or service is for cause, any outstanding unexercised option (whether vested or non-vested), will immediately expire and terminate, and the option-holder shall not have any right in connection with such option.

*Voting Rights.* Option-holders shall not have any of the rights or privileges of shareholders of Silexion in respect of any ordinary shares purchasable upon the exercise of any options unless and until, following exercise in accordance with the terms of the 2013 Plan and the options, registration of the option-holder as a holder of such ordinary shares in our register of shareholders is complete, but in case of options and underlying ordinary shares to be held by the trustee, subject to the provisions of the 2013 Plan.

*Dividends.* With respect to all ordinary shares (as opposed to unexercised options) issued upon the exercise of options, the option holder, as a shareholder of Silexion shall be entitled to receive dividends in accordance with the quantity of such ordinary shares and the Articles, and subject to any applicable taxation on distribution of dividends.

*Transactions.* If the outstanding shares of Silexion shall at any time be changed or exchanged by declaration of a dividend, split, share subdivision, combination or exchange of shares, recapitalization, or any other like event, then in such event only and as often as the same shall occur, the number, class and kind of ordinary shares (including ordinary shares issuable pursuant to the 2013 Plan, in respect of which options have not yet been exercised) subject to the 2013 Plan or subject to any options granted thereunder, and the exercise price of the options, shall be appropriately and equitably adjusted so as to maintain the proportionate number of ordinary shares without changing the aggregate exercise price of the options.

In the event of a merger or consolidation of Silexion or a sale of all, or substantially all, of our shares or assets or other transaction having a similar effect on Silexion, or change in the composition of the Board, or such other transaction or circumstances that the Board determines to be a relevant transaction, the merger agreement will provide for one or more of the following, without the consent of the option-holder: (i) any outstanding option will be assumed or substituted by the successor corporation; (ii) the option will be cancelled and a payment will be made to the option-holder, as provided in the 2013 Plan; or (iii) the option will be fully exercisable and the underlying ordinary shares will be issuable upon exercise, followed by the cancellation of the option.

The foregoing description of the 2013 Plan is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the 2013 Plan, which serves as Exhibit 10.9 to this Annual Report and is incorporated herein by reference.

#### 2023 Equity Incentive Plan
Silexion Israel's board of directors adopted a 2023 Equity Incentive Plan (the **"2023 Plan"**) in 2023. The purpose of the 2023 Plan was to provide equity-based incentive awards in order to link the compensation and benefits of the individuals and entities providing services to Silexion Israel or its affiliates with the success of Silexion Israel and long-term shareholder value.

There are no currently outstanding awards under the 2023 Plan. Because Silexion adopted a new equity incentive plan, the 2024 Equity Incentive Plan (as described below) prior the Closing of the Business Combination, we do not intend to make any further grants under the 2023 Plan.

------

#### Silexion Share Incentive Plans

#### 2024 Equity Incentive Plan
Pursuant to written resolutions adopted by our Board and shareholders prior to the Closing of the Business Combination, we have approved and adopted the 2024 Equity Incentive Plan (the "**2024 Plan**"), which became effective immediately upon the Closing.

Upon the Closing, a total of 4,264 ordinary shares were reserved for issuance under the terms of the 2024 Plan, which, together with Silexion ordinary shares allocated for issuance under the existing 2013 Plan and 2023 Plan, equaled 10% of the total number of our issued and outstanding ordinary shares on a fully diluted basis immediately following the Closing.

A summary of the material terms of the 2024 Plan is provided below:

*Administration*

The compensation committee of our Board is the administrator of the 2024 Plan. Except as provided otherwise under the 2024 Plan, the administrator has plenary authority to grant awards pursuant to the terms of the 2024 Plan to eligible individuals, determine the types of awards and the number of shares covered by the awards, establish the terms and conditions for awards and take all other actions necessary or desirable to carry out the purpose and intent of the 2024 Plan.

*Eligibility and Participation*

The administrator selects the individuals who participate in the 2024 Plan. Eligibility to participate is open to officers, directors and employees of, and other individuals who provide bona fide services to or for, us or any of our subsidiaries. Our board of directors may also select as participants prospective officers, employees and individual service providers who have accepted an offer of employment or another service relationship from us or one of our subsidiaries. Any awards granted to such a prospect before the individual's start date may not become vested or exercisable, and no shares may be issued to such individual, before the date the individual first commences performance of services with us.

*Share Pool Under the 2024 Plan*

The initial number of Silexion ordinary shares allocated to the 2024 Plan (the "**Share Pool**") was 4,264. At our 2025 annual general meeting held in July 2025, our shareholders approved a special one-time increase to the number of ordinary shares available under the 2024 Plan by 84,791 ordinary shares. The 2024 Plan furthermore provides for an automatic annual allocation/adjustment to the Share Pool (the "**evergreen provision**") whereby the number of shares reserved for issuance under the Share Pool increases on January 1 of each year. As initially provided under the 2024 Plan, the evergreen provision increased the Share Pool by the lesser of (i) such number of shares as equaled 5% of our issued and outstanding shares as of January 1 of each year, or (ii) an amount determined by our board of directors prior to such date. As implemented on January 1, 2025, 6,164 ordinary shares became available under the 2024 Plan pursuant to the original evergreen provision. As implemented once again on January 1, 2026, 156,333 ordinary shares became available under that same evergreen provision. As has been proposed for amendment by our compensation committee and Board, subject to the approval of our shareholders (the last of whom may provide their approval to the amendment at our extraordinary general meeting being held in March 2026), the evergreen provision of the 2024 Plan will provide instead as follows:

On January 1 of each calendar year, through (and including) January 1, 2034, the Share Pool under the 2024 Plan will increase by an amount equal to the lesser of (i) such number of ordinary shares as yields a total pool of shares reserved under the 2024 Plan and our prior equity incentive plans equal to 10% of the number of ordinary shares issued and outstanding, on a fully-diluted basis, on such January 1st date, or (ii) an amount determined by our Board prior to such date.

------

Pursuant to the proposed amended evergreen provision, the Share Pool under the 2024 Plan would increase by 594,900 ordinary shares (which includes the 156,333 ordinary shares under the existing evergreen provision) effective as of January 1, 2026, and would stand at 681,473 ordinary shares.

The following additional rules apply to the number of ordinary shares available under the Share Pool on an ongoing basis:

● The Share Pool will be reduced by one share for each share made subject to an award granted under the 2024 Plan;

● The Share Pool will be increased by the number of unissued shares underlying or used as a reference measure for any award or portion of an award granted under the 2024 Plan that is cancelled, forfeited, expired, terminated unearned or settled in cash, in any such case without the issuance of shares;

● The Share Pool will be increased by the number of shares that are forfeited back or surrendered for no consideration to us after issuance due to a failure to meet an award contingency or condition with respect to any award or portion of an award granted under the 2024 Plan;

● The Share Pool will be increased, on the exercise date, by the number of shares withheld by or surrendered (either actually or through attestation) to the Company in payment of the exercise price of any award granted under the 2024 Plan; and

● The Share Pool will be increased, on the relevant date, by the number of shares withheld by or surrendered (either actually or through attestation) to the Company in payment of any tax withholding obligation that arises in connection with any award granted under the 2024 Plan.

In the event of a merger, consolidation, share rights offering, statutory share exchange or similar event affecting the Company or a share dividend, share split, reverse share split, separation, spinoff, reorganization, extraordinary dividend of cash or other property, share combination or subdivision, or recapitalization or similar event affecting the capital structure of the Company, our Board will make equitable and appropriate substitutions or proportionate adjustments to the Share Pool to reflect the transaction or event. Similar adjustments will be made to the award limitations described below and to the terms of outstanding awards.

*ISO Award Limit*

The maximum number of Silexion ordinary shares that may be issued in connection with awards granted under the 2024 Plan that are intended to qualify as incentive stock options under Section 422 of the Code is 95,218.

*Types of Awards*

*General*. The 2024 Plan enables the grant of share awards, performance shares, restricted share units (RSUs), cash-based performance units, other share-based awards, share options, share appreciation rights, and share unit awards, each of which may be granted separately or in tandem with other awards. The administrator may establish sub-plans under the 2024 Plan under which awards that qualify for preferred tax treatment for recipients in jurisdictions outside the U.S. may be granted.

We have adopted a sub-plan for Israeli participants, which provides for granting awards in compliance with Section 102 ("**Section 102**") and Section 3(i) of the Ordinance. Section 102 allows employees, directors and officers who are not controlling shareholders and who are considered Israeli residents for tax purposes to receive favorable tax treatment for compensation in the form of shares, options or certain other types of equity awards, subject to certain terms and conditions. Our non-employee service providers and controlling shareholders who are considered Israeli residents for tax purposes may be granted awards under Section 3(i) of the Ordinance, which do not provide for similar tax benefits as Section 102.

------

Out of the three tax tracks that are available under Section 102 ((i) the "ordinary income track" with a trustee, (ii) the "capital gains track" with a trustee and (iii) grants without a trustee and without a trust period), we have elected the "capital gain track" for grants to eligible Israeli grantees as provided above, which may allow favorable tax treatment for such grantees.

 *Adjustments to Awards for Corporate Transactions and Other Events*

*Mandatory Adjustments*

In the event of a merger, amalgamation, consolidation, share rights offering, share exchange or similar event affecting the Company (a "**Corporate Event**") or a share dividend, share split, reverse share split, separation, spinoff, reorganization, extraordinary dividend of cash or other property, share combination or subdivision, or recapitalization, capital reduction distribution or similar event affecting the capital structure of the Company, the administrator will make equitable and appropriate substitutions or proportionate adjustments to:

● the aggregate number and kind of shares or other securities that may be granted to eligible individuals under the 2024 Plan;

● the maximum number of shares or other securities that may be issued with respect to incentive share options granted under the 2024 Plan;

● the number of shares or other securities covered by each outstanding award and the exercise price, base price or other price per share, if any, and other relevant terms of each outstanding award; and

● all other numerical limitations relating to awards, whether contained in the 2024 Plan or in award agreements.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any fractional shares resulting from the above mandatory adjustments will be eliminated.

*Discretionary Adjustments*

In addition to the adjustments specified above, in the case of Corporate Events, the administrator may make such other adjustments to outstanding awards as it determines to be appropriate and desirable, which adjustments may include, without limitation, (i) the cancellation of outstanding awards in exchange for payments of cash, securities or other property or a combination thereof having an aggregate value equal to the value of such awards, (ii) the substitution of securities or other property (including, without limitation, cash or other securities of the Company and securities of entities other than the Company) for the shares subject to outstanding awards, and (iii) the substitution of equivalent awards, as determined in the sole discretion of the administrator, of the surviving or successor entity or a parent thereof. The administrator may, in its discretion, adjust the performance goals applicable to any awards to reflect any unusual or non-recurring events and other extraordinary items, impact of charges for restructurings, discontinued operations and the cumulative effects of accounting or tax changes.

*Repricing*

The administrator may reprice any share options or share appreciation rights without the approval of the shareholders of the Company. For this purpose, "reprice" means (i) any of the following or any other action that has the same effect: (A) lowering the exercise price or base price of an option or share appreciation right after it is granted other than an adjustment made pursuant to the provisions of the 2024 Plan, (B) any other action that is treated as a repricing under applicable accounting principles; (C) cancelling a share option or share appreciation right at a time when its exercise price or base price exceeds the fair market value of the underlying share, in exchange for another share option, share appreciation right, restricted share or other equity, unless the cancellation and exchange occurs in connection with a merger, acquisition, spin-off or other similar corporate transaction; and (ii) any other action that is considered to be a repricing under formal or informal guidance issued by the primary securities market or exchange on which the shares are listed or admitted for trading.

------

*Treatment of Awards upon Dissolution or Liquidation or a Change in Control*

*Dissolution or Liquidation*.

Unless the administrator determines otherwise, all awards outstanding under the 2024 Plan will terminate upon the winding up, liquidation or dissolution of the Company.

*Amendment and Termination*

Our Board or the compensation committee may terminate, amend or modify the 2024 Plan or any portion of it at any time; provided, that, (i) if required to comply with Cayman Islands law and any other applicable laws or marketplace or listing rules of a securities market or securities exchange (other than any requirement from which the Company may opt out based on any available home country exemption), the Company shall obtain shareholder approval of any 2024 Plan amendment in such a manner and to such a degree as required, and (ii) no such termination or amendment may materially impair the rights of a participant with respect to a previously granted award (other than as required to comply with applicable law or the rules of any securities exchange or market on which the shares are listed or to prevent adverse tax or accounting consequences to the Company or the participant) without such participant's consent.

The 2024 Plan is scheduled to expire on August 14, 2034, which is ten years after the effective date of its adoption by our board of directors. After that time, no further grants may be made under the 2024 Plan, but any then-outstanding grants will remain subject to the terms of the plan.

The foregoing description of the 2024 Incentive Plan is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the 2024 Incentive Plan, which serves as Exhibit 10.5 to this Annual Report and is incorporated herein by reference.

#### Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation; Compensation Committee Report
Silexion is both an emerging growth company and a smaller reporting company and therefore need not provide the disclosure concerning "*Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation*" otherwise required under Item 407(e)(4) of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC, nor the report of its compensation committee otherwise required under Item 407(e)(5) of Regulation S-K.

#### Item 12. Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Stockholder Matters

#### Beneficial Ownership of Ordinary Shares
The following table sets forth information regarding the beneficial ownership of our ordinary shares as of March 1, 2026 by:

● each person or entity known by us to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of our issued and outstanding ordinary shares;

● each of our officers and directors; and

● all our officers and directors as a group.

Beneficial ownership is determined according to the rules of the SEC, which generally provide that a person has beneficial ownership of a security such as our ordinary shares if he, she or it possesses sole or shared voting or investment power over those ordinary shares, including based on the right to acquire those ordinary shares due to exercise of an option or warrant, or due to the settlement of an RSU, that may be currently exercised or settled (as of March 1, 2026), or that may be exercised or settled (as applicable) for an underlying ordinary share within 60 days following March 1, 2026. In computing the number of ordinary shares beneficially owned by a person or entity and his/her or its percentage ownership, we include, as outstanding, those ordinary shares that are subject to options, warrants or RSUs held by that person or entity that may be currently exercised or settled (as of March 1, 2026), or that may be exercised or settled (as applicable) within 60 days of March 1, 2026. We do not, however, deem those underlying shares to be outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person or entity.

------

Unless otherwise indicated, we believe that all persons and entities named in the table below have sole voting and investment power with respect to all ordinary shares beneficially owned by them.

The percentage ownership of ordinary shares is based on 3,330,785 ordinary shares outstanding as of March 1, 2026.

#### Securities Authorized for Issuance Under Equity Compensation Plans
Presented below is information about our equity compensation plans as of December 31, 2025:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Plan category** | **Number of ordinary shares to be issued upon exercise of outstanding options and RSUs** | **Weighted-average exercise price of outstanding options** | **Number of securities remaining available for future issuance under equity compensation plans (excluding securities reflected in column (a))** |
|  | (a) | (b) | (c) |
| ***Equity compensation plans approved by security holders*** |  |  |  |
| Silexion Therapeutics Ltd. 2013 Equity Incentive Plan | 1579 | $902.46 |  |
| Silexion Therapeutics Ltd. 2023 Equity Incentive Plan | - | $- |  |
| Silexion Therapeutics Corp 2024 Equity Incentive Plan | 8646 | $18.9 | 86573(1) |
| Total | 10225 |  | (1) |

---

(1) Effective as of January 1, 2026, the pool of ordinary shares available for future issuance under the 2024 Plan stood at 95,219 ordinary shares, and was automatically increased by an additional 156,333 ordinary shares, thereby increasing the total number of ordinary shares available for future issuance under the 2024 Plan to 251,552, and under all of our equity incentive plans, in the aggregate, to 253,131 ordinary shares. Under Proposal 2 to be presented at an extraordinary general meeting of our company that was scheduled to take place on March 16, 2025, which meeting was adjourned to March 23, 2026, the "evergreen" provision under the 2024 Plan would add such number of ordinary shares as would result in a total pool of ordinary shares under all equity incentive plans equal to 10% of our issued and outstanding shares on a fully diluted basis—which would instead add 594,900 ordinary shares under the 2024 Plan effective as of January 1, 2026 (inclusive of the 156,333 ordinary shares added under the existing evergreen provision). All together, the total number of shares reserved for issuance under our equity incentive plans after the January 1, 2026 increase would be 253,131 under the current, 5% evergreen provision or 691,698 under the proposed larger evergreen provision.

#### Related Party Transactions

Mr. Hadar's employment agreement, as amended, with our wholly-owned subsidiary Silexion Israel provides for him to receive a gross monthly salary of NIS 110,000, which amounts to an annual base salary of $382,398 (based on the average exchange rate for 2025, as published by the Bank of Israel), customary disbursements toward his providence fund, further education fund and severance pay fund, and other fringe benefits commensurate with such position.

------

#### Indemnification Agreements
On the date of, and in connection with, the Closing of the Business Combination, we entered into indemnification agreements with each of our directors and executive officers, which provide for indemnification and advancements by us of certain expenses and costs under certain circumstances. The indemnification agreements provide that we will indemnify each of our directors and executive officers against any and all expenses incurred by that director or executive officer because of his or her status as a director or officer of Silexion, to the fullest extent permitted under Cayman law and the Articles.

The foregoing description of the indemnification agreements does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the form of indemnification agreement that serves as Exhibit 10.3 to this Annual Report, and which is incorporated herein by reference.

#### Registration Rights Related to PIPE Financing
In connection with, and immediately prior to the Closing of, the Business Combination, Moringa raised $2.0 million via a private investment in public entity financing (the "**PIPE Financing**"), whereby Moringa sold to Greenstar, LP (the "**PIPE Investor**"), a Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership and affiliate of the Moringa sponsor, 1,482 newly issued Moringa ordinary shares at a price of $1,350 per share, pursuant to the PIPE Agreement, dated as of August 15, 2024, by and among Moringa, the Company and the PIPE Investor. Those 1,482 shares automatically converted upon the Closing of the Business Combination into an equivalent number of our ordinary shares (the "**PIPE Shares**").

The PIPE Investor is entitled to customary registration rights in respect of the PIPE Shares under the PIPE Agreement, pursuant to which we agreed that, within 60 days after the Closing Date, we would file with the SEC a registration statement registering the resale of the PIPE Shares by the PIPE Investor, and use our commercially reasonable efforts to have that registration statement be declared effective by 180 days after the Closing Date (or 90 days after the Closing Date if the SEC would not review that filing). In keeping with our obligations under those registration rights, we have registered the resale of the PIPE Shares by the PIPE Investor, initially, in a registration statement on Form S-1 (SEC file number 333-282556) and, subsequently, in a registration statement on Form S-3 (SEC file number 333-291210).

The funds raised from the PIPE Financing, together with remaining funds in Moringa's trust account after payments to redeeming public shareholders of Moringa, were used for financing support for Moringa and Silexion, as well as for payment to service providers to whom outstanding amounts were owed by Moringa, including parties that had provided financial advisory services and capital markets advisory services to Moringa during the period leading up to the Closing.

#### Amended and Restated Sponsor Promissory Note
Effective as of the Closing, we issued to the Moringa sponsor, and the Moringa sponsor accepted, in amendment and restatement, and replacement, in their entirety, of all existing promissory notes issued by Moringa to the Moringa sponsor from the IPO until the Closing (and as to which the obligations of Moringa were assigned to us upon the Closing), the A&R Sponsor Promissory Note in a principal amount of $3,433,000, which reflected the total amount owed by Moringa to the sponsor through the Closing Date. The maturity date of the A&R Sponsor Promissory Note is the 30-month anniversary of the Closing Date (i.e., February 15, 2027). Amounts outstanding under the A&R Sponsor Promissory Note may be repaid (unless otherwise decided by us) only by way of conversion into our ordinary shares ("**Note Shares**") in accordance with the terms set forth in the form of A&R Sponsor Promissory Note. We or the sponsor may also convert amounts outstanding under the A&R Sponsor Promissory Note at the price per share at which we conduct an equity financing following the Closing, subject to a minimum conversion amount of $100,000, in an amount of Note Shares constituting up to thirty percent (30%) of the number of our ordinary shares issued and sold by us in such equity financing. The sponsor may also elect to convert amounts of principal outstanding under the note into our ordinary shares at any time following the 24-month anniversary of the Closing Date, subject to a minimum conversion of $10,000, at a price per share equal to the volume weighted average price of our ordinary shares on the principal market on which they are traded during the 20 consecutive trading days prior to the conversion date.

------

On September 15, 2025, in connection with the closing of our September 2025 public offering, we elected to convert $1.8 million of the outstanding amount under the A&R Sponsor Promissory Note into 450,000 ordinary shares that we issued to the Moringa sponsor. The conversion price of $4.00 per ordinary share reflected the price per ordinary share (including ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of pre-funded warrants) and accompanying two ordinary warrants to purchase two ordinary shares that we sold in that public offering. As a result of that conversion, the outstanding amount owed by us to the Moringa sponsor under the A&R Sponsor Promissory Note was reduced to $1,633,000.

The foregoing summary provides only a brief description of the A&R Sponsor Promissory Note and does not purport to be complete. The summary is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the A&R Sponsor Promissory Note, a copy of which serves as Exhibit 10.2 to this Annual Report, and which is incorporated herein by reference.

#### Amended and Restated Registration Rights and Lock-Up Agreement
Prior to the Closing under the Business Combination Agreement, on August 14, 2024, our company, Moringa, the Moringa sponsor, the distributees of certain of our ordinary shares previously held by the sponsor, certain of our pre-Business Combination shareholders, and the PIPE Investor entered into an amended and restated registration rights and lock-up agreement which became effective as of the Closing of the Business Combination (the "**A&R Registration Rights and Lock-Up Agreement**"). Under the agreement, we assumed Moringa's existing obligations under Moringa's prior registration rights agreement and granted registration rights to the Moringa sponsor, certain distributees of shares held by the Moringa sponsor, certain of our pre-Business Combination shareholders, and the PIPE Investor with respect to certain ordinary shares and warrants of ours.

Under the A&R Registration Rights and Lock-Up Agreement, we agreed to provide the holders party thereto customary demand and shelf registration rights (subject to certain minimum size offerings) and piggy-back rights on primary and secondary offerings, subject to customary cut-back provisions.

Under the lock-up provisions of the agreement, certain lock-up periods following the Closing applied to our securities that were held by our security holders who are party to the agreement, subject to permitted transfers to certain categories of permitted transferees. Each of those lock-up periods has already expired as of the date of this Annual Report.

In keeping with our registration rights obligations under the A&R Registration Rights and Lock-Up Agreement, we have registered the resale of the securities covered by the agreement, initially, in a registration statement on Form S-1 (SEC file number 333-282556) and, subsequently, in a registration statement on Form S-3 (SEC file number 333-291210).

The foregoing summary provides only a brief description of the A&R Registration Rights and Lock-Up Agreement and does not purport to be complete. The summary is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the A&R Registration Rights and Lock-Up Agreement, which serves as Exhibit 10.1 to this Annual Report, and which is incorporated herein by reference.

#### Warrant Exercise Inducement Transactions
During 2025, we completed two warrant exercise inducement transactions with existing warrant holders, including security holders that beneficially owned, at the time of those transactions, 5% or more of our outstanding ordinary shares.

On January 29, 2025, we entered into an inducement offer letter agreement with holders of 148,102 of our existing ordinary warrants. On January 30, 2025, those holders exercised their warrants for cash and purchased 148,102 ordinary shares at a cash exercise price of $20.25 per share, in consideration of our issuance to them of new ordinary warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 148,102 ordinary shares at an exercise price of $22.50 per share. The exercising holders also paid us an additional $1.88 per new ordinary warrant issued to them. We received aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $3.3 million from this transaction, before deducting placement agent fees and other offering expenses.

------

On July 31, 2025, we entered into a second inducement offer letter agreement with holders of 152,106 of our existing ordinary warrants. On August 1, 2025, those holders exercised their warrants for cash and purchased 152,106 ordinary shares at a cash exercise price of $11.57 per share, in consideration of our issuance to them of new ordinary warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 304,212 ordinary shares at an exercise price of $11.32 per share. We received aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $1.8 million from this transaction, before deducting placement agent fees and other offering expenses.

For both transactions, we engaged H.C. Wainwright to act as our exclusive placement agent and paid it cash fees equal to 7.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds received, as well as management fees equal to 1.0% of the gross proceeds. We also issued to H.C. Wainwright or its designees placement agent warrants to purchase up to 10,368 and 10,647 ordinary shares, respectively, with exercise prices of $27.66 per share and $14.46 per share, respectively.

#### Related Party Transactions Policies and Procedures
We have not adopted a formal policy for the review, approval or ratification of related party transactions. Accordingly, the transactions discussed above were not reviewed, approved or ratified in accordance with any such policy.

Instead, however, as described above in "*Item 10. Directors, Executive Officers and Corporate Governance— Corporate Governance Practices— Code of Business Conduct and Ethics*," we have adopted a written code of business conduct and ethics that applies to our directors, officers and employees and that requires us to avoid, wherever possible, all conflicts of interest, except under guidelines or resolutions approved by our board of directors (or the appropriate committee of our board) or as disclosed in our public filings with the SEC. Under our code of business conduct and ethics, conflict of interest situations include any financial transaction, arrangement or relationship (including any indebtedness or guarantee of indebtedness) involving the company and any of our affiliates.

Our audit committee, pursuant to its written charter that we adopted upon the Closing of the Business Combination, is responsible for reviewing and approving related party transactions to the extent that we seek to enter into any such transactions. An affirmative vote of a majority of the members of the audit committee present at a meeting at which a quorum is present is required in order to approve a related party transaction. A majority of the members of the entire audit committee will constitute a quorum. Without a meeting, the unanimous written consent of all of the members of the audit committee is required to approve a related party transaction. Our audit committee reviews on a quarterly basis all payments that were made to our officers or directors, any of their affiliates, or any of our affiliates.

These procedures are intended to determine whether any such related party transaction impairs the independence of a director or presents a conflict of interest on the part of a director, employee or officer.

#### Director Independence
Nasdaq listing standards require that a majority of the members of our Board be independent. An "independent director" is defined generally as a person who has no disqualifying relationship with the Company described under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605(a)(2), as well as no other material relationship with the Company (either directly or as a partner, shareholder or officer of an organization that has a relationship with the Company) that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. In making a determination of director independence, our Board considers the current and prior relationships that each director has with the Company and all other facts and circumstances that the Board deems relevant in determining the director's independence, including the beneficial ownership of our securities by such director, and the transactions described in the sub-section above titled "*Related Party Transactions*."

------

The Board has determined that each of Messrs. Dror J. Abramov, Ilan Levin, Avner Lushi, Shlomo Noy, and Amon Peled, and Ms. Ruth Alon, meets the definition of "independent director" as defined in Nasdaq listing standards. For purposes of SEC rules applicable to members of the audit committee and compensation committee, each of Messrs. Abramov and Peled, and Ms. Alon, who together constitute all members of those committees, has been determined to be independent.

#### Item 14. Principal Accountant Fees and Services
The following table provides a summary of fees paid or to be paid to Kesselman & Kesselman, a member firm of PricewaterhouseCoopers International Limited, an independent registered public accounting firm, which served as our principal accountant with respect to the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 ("**PwC Israel**"), for services rendered for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

#### Audit Committee's Pre-approval Policies and Procedures

Pursuant to those policies and procedures, which are designed to assure that such engagements do not impair the independence of our auditors, the audit committee pre-approves annually, and on as an-needed basis, a catalog of specific audit and non-audit services in the categories of audit service, audit-related service, tax services and other services that may be performed by our registered public accounting firm.

All services provided by our independent registered public accounting firm following the Closing of the Business Combination on August 15, 2024 (when we became a public company with securities registered under the Exchange Act, when we were required to begin complying with the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended) have been pre-approved by the audit committee.

#### REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the board of directors and shareholders of

#### SILEXION THERAPEUTICS CORP

#### Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Silexion Therapeutics Corp and its subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in redeemable convertible preferred shares and shareholders' equity (capital deficiency) and cash flows for the years then ended, including the related notes (collectively referred to as the "consolidated financial statements"). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

*Substantial Doubt about the Company's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern*

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1g to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and has cash outflows from operating activities that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1g. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

#### Basis for Opinion
These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

#### NOTE 1 - GENERAL:
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**a.** **Introduction**:

Silexion Therapeutics Corp ("Silexion", the "Company" or the "Combined Company") is a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing, through its subsidiaries, RNA interference (RNAi) therapies for KRAS-driven cancers. Silexion's approach targets a significant unmet medical need, as treatment innovation for KRAS-driven cancers has historically lagged despite KRAS being one of the most common oncogenic drivers across solid tumors. Silexion's lead product candidate, SIL204, is a second-generation siRNA therapy, designed to silence mutant KRAS, using an integrated treatment approach that combines intratumoral and systemic administration. The Company was originally formed for the purpose of effecting the Transactions (as defined below). Following the closing of the Transactions on August 15, 2024 (the "Closing"), the Company became a publicly-traded holding company that has one primary active wholly-owned subsidiary — Silexion Therapeutics Ltd. (formerly known as Silenseed Ltd.) ("Silexion Israel"), an Israeli limited company, through which much of its operations are conducted, along with certain additional inactive subsidiaries, including Moringa Acquisition Corp ("Moringa" or the "SPAC"), a Cayman Islands exempted company.

On April 3, 2024, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Business Combination Agreement (hereinafter, the "A&R BCA") with the SPAC, Silexion Israel, August M.S. Ltd. an Israeli company and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company ("Merger Sub 1"), and Moringa Acquisition Merger Sub Corp, a Cayman Islands exempted company and additional wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company ("Merger Sub 2"). Pursuant to the closing under the A&R BCA, which occurred on August 14, 2024, both Silexion Israel and the SPAC became wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company, which became a publicly-held, Nasdaq-listed entity whose securities are traded under the ticker symbols "SLXN" and "SLXNW" (the A&R BCA and related transactions: the "Transactions").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**b.** **Financial Information Presented**:

From its formation on April 2, 2024 until the Closing of the Transactions on August 15, 2024, the Company had no operations and had been formed for the sole purpose of entering into the Transactions and serving as the publicly-traded company following the Transactions. Silexion Israel, on the other hand, as the accounting acquirer in the Transactions and the predecessor entity to the Company from an accounting perspective, had active operations during earlier periods of time, prior to the Transactions. Consequently, these financial statements reflect the financial information of Silexion Israel (as the predecessor entity to the Company) through August 15, 2024 and the financial information of Silexion (as the Combined Company following the Transactions) from August 16, 2024 forward.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**c.** **Subsidiaries**:

The Company has three subsidiaries as of December 31, 2025:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. <u>Silexion Israel</u>. Silexion Israel was incorporated in Israel and began its operations on November 30, 2008. Since its incorporation, Silexion Israel has been engaged in one operating segment - the research and development of innovative treatments for pancreatic cancer based on siRNAs, aiming to stop the production of a specific pancreatic cancer-causing protein known as the KRAS mutation. Silexion Israel takes an integrated approach to treatments, combining intratumoral and systemic administration of its RNAi therapies. Silexion Israel's long-lived assets are located in Israel.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. <u>Silenseed (China) Ltd.</u> On April 28, 2021, Silexion Israel (as the predecessor entity to the Company) signed an agreement with Guangzhou Sino-Israel Biotech Investment Fund ("GIBF") to establish a new company in China. On June 15, 2021 a company was established in China, named Silenseed (China) Ltd. (hereinafter - the "Chinese Subsidiary"). As of December 31, 2025, following transfer of all interests in the Chinese Subsidiary to the Company as part of the Transactions, the Company owns (directly or indirectly) 100% of the shares of the Chinese Subsidiary. The Chinese Subsidiary has had no significant operations during the reporting periods.

**NOTE 1 - GENERAL** (continued):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. <u>Moringa</u>. Prior to the Transactions (commencing on February 17, 2021), Moringa's class A ordinary shares and warrants were listed for trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market (Nasdaq: MACA and MACAW). As part of the Transactions, Moringa merged with Merger Sub 2 and now serves as an inactive, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Following the Transactions, Moringa is no longer listed for trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. On February 9, 2026 the Company purchased a German shelf company, subsequently renamed Silexion Therapeutics GmbH ("Silexion Germany"), to conduct the Company's clinical trials in Germany.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5. The Company, the Chinese Subsidiary, Moringa and Silexion Israel (and, when describing any event following its having been acquired in February 2026, Silexion Germany as well) are together referred to hereinafter as the "Group".

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**d.** **Business Combination**:

On August 15, 2024, the parties completed the Transactions pursuant to which Merger Sub 2 merged with and into the SPAC, with the SPAC continuing as the surviving company of such merger and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Silexion (the "SPAC Merger"), and Merger Sub 1 merged with and into Silexion Israel, with Silexion Israel continuing as the surviving company of such merger and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Silexion (the "Acquisition Merger").

In connection with the Closing of the Transactions, the ordinary shares and warrants of Silexion were listed on the Nasdaq Global Market (currently, they are listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market) and began trading under the symbols "SLXN" and "SLXNW", respectively.

For more information on instruments issued as part of the Transactions, see Note 3.

The Transactions were accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with US GAAP. Under this method of accounting, Silexion Israel was treated as the accounting acquirer and the SPAC was treated as the "acquired" company for financial reporting purposes. Under the reverse recapitalization accounting method, the Transactions were deemed to be the equivalent of a capital transaction in which Silexion Israel issued shares for the net assets of the SPAC. The net assets of the SPAC were stated at fair value, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. Operations prior to the Transactions are those of Silexion Israel.

In accordance with the applicable guidance to reverse recapitalization, the equity structure has been retroactively adjusted in all comparative periods up to the date of the Closing (the "Closing Date"), to reflect the number of Silexion's ordinary shares, $0.0001 par value per share (before adjustment for two subsequent reverse share splits, which are described in Note 1(e)) issued to legacy Silexion Israel shareholders in connection with the reverse recapitalization transaction. As such, the shares and corresponding capital amounts and earnings per share related to legacy Silexion Israel shareholders prior to the reverse recapitalization have been retroactively restated as shares reflecting the exchange ratio established pursuant to the Transactions. In conjunction with the reverse recapitalization, Silexion Israel's ordinary shares underwent a 1-for-3.9829 conversion (before adjustment for subsequent reverse share splits).

**NOTE 1 - GENERAL** (continued):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**e.** **Reverse share splits**:

On November 27, 2024 and July 28, 2025, the Company effected 1-for-9 and 1-for-15 reverse share splits of all of its issued and outstanding, and authorized but unissued, ordinary shares. The reverse share splits resulted in corresponding increases in the par value of the Company's ordinary shares, from $0.0001 to $0.0009, and from $0.0009 to $0.0135, per share. No fractional shares were issued as a result of the reverse splits, as any fractional share totals to which shareholders would have been entitled were rounded up to the nearest whole number of shares. All references made to ordinary shares, preferred shares and per share amounts (for each of Silexion, Silexion Israel, and Moringa) in these consolidated financial statements, unless otherwise indicated, have been adjusted (for periods preceding either reverse share split, retroactively) to reflect those reverse share splits.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**f.** **Israeli war**:

In October 2023, Israel was attacked by Hamas, a terrorist organization and entered a state of war. Since the commencement of these events, there have been additional active hostilities, including with Hezbollah in Lebanon, the Houthi movement which controls parts of Yemen, and with Iran. In response to ongoing Iranian aggression and support of proxy attacks against Israel, on June 12, 2025, Israel conducted a series of preemptive defensive air strikes in Iran targeting Iran's nuclear program and military commanders. On June 24, 2025, a ceasefire with Iran was reached. On October 9, 2025, Israel, Hamas, the United States and other countries in the region agreed to a framework for a ceasefire in Gaza between Israel and Hamas. While that ceasefire has been mostly maintained, in late February 2026, Israel and the United States preemptively attacked Iran. As part of this conflict, Iran and Hezbollah have launched missile attacks throughout Israel. As a result, the Israeli government imposed restrictions on opening of non-essential places of business and announced recruitment of military reserves.

The Company's employees and management personnel are located in Israel; however, other core activities, including research and development, clinical, and regulatory, are conducted outside of Israel. The Company considered the impact of the war and determined that (in part due to those core activities being conducted outside of Israel) there were no material adverse impacts on the consolidated financial statements, including related significant estimates made by management, for the period ended December 31, 2025. Further, as the Company's R&D activity is conducted outside of Israel, the Company does not expect future adverse effects of the war on its core activities. On the other hand, travel restrictions imposed may impact the Company's ability to raise funds to finance its activities in the near term.

At this stage, the Company is unable to estimate the impact of the developments on its future financial position, its results of operations, or its cash flows, if any. However, as this event is outside the Company's control, factors such as the continued duration of the military conflict and its potential expansion into additional areas, as well as other developments, may impact the Company, its financial position, its ability to conduct financing activities, its results of operations, and its cash flows. The Company continues to monitor these developments in order to assess the potential effects of the military conflict on its activities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**g.** **Going concern:** 

Since its inception, the Company (and, prior to the Transactions, its predecessor, Silexion Israel) has devoted substantially all its efforts to research and development, clinical trials, and capital raising activities. The Company is still in its development and clinical stage and has not yet generated revenues.

The Company (or, for those periods prior to the Transactions, its predecessor, Silexion Israel) has incurred losses of $11,912 and $16,519 for the years ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company had negative operating cash flows of $10,819. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $5,991.

The Company expects to continue incurring losses, and negative cash flows from operations. Management is in the process of evaluating various financing alternatives, as the Company will need to finance future research and development activities, general and administrative expenses and working capital through fund raising. However, there is no assurance that the Company will be successful in obtaining such funding.

**NOTE 1 - GENERAL** (continued):

Under these circumstances, in accordance with the requirements of Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 205-40, management has concluded that there is substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, as management believes its current funds will be sufficient to fund its operations for only several months from the date these financial statements are issued. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

#### NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a. **Basis of presentation** 

The Company's consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("U.S. GAAP").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**b.** **Use of estimates** 

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. As applicable to these financial statements, the most significant estimates and assumptions relate to fair value of financial instruments (see Note 12). These estimates and assumptions are based on current facts, future expectations, and various other factors believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the recording of expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ materially and adversely from these estimates.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**c.** **Functional currency** 

The Company's operations are currently conducted in Israel and some of the Company's expenses are currently paid in new Israeli shekels ("NIS") and Euro; however, the markets for the Company's future products are located outside of Israel. Financing activities are conducted in U.S. dollars ("dollars" or "$"). The Company's management believes that the US dollar is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Company operates. Thus, the functional and reporting currency of the Company is the dollar. The functional currency of Silexion Israel is the U.S. dollar, inter alia, in light of the composition of expenses and expected volume of intercompany transactions with the Company.

Transactions and balances originally denominated in dollars are presented at their original amounts. Balances in non- U.S. dollar currencies are translated into dollars using historical and current exchange rates for non-monetary and monetary balances, respectively. For non-dollar transactions and other items in the statements of operations (indicated below), the following exchange rates are used: (i) for transactions — exchange rates at transaction dates or average exchange rates; and (ii) for other items (derived from non-monetary balance sheet items such as depreciation and amortization) — historical exchange rates. Currency transaction gains and losses are presented in financial income or expenses, as appropriate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**d.** **Principles of consolidation** 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries are prepared as of the same dates and periods. The consolidated financial statements are prepared using uniform accounting policies by all companies in the Group.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**e.** **Cash and cash equivalents** 

The Company considers as cash equivalents all short-term, highly liquid investments, which include money market funds, that are not restricted as to withdrawal or use, and short-term bank deposits with original maturities of three months or less from the date of purchase that are not restricted as to withdrawal or use and are readily convertible to known amounts of cash.

Bank balances for which use by the Company is subject to third party contractual restrictions are included as part of cash unless the restrictions result in a bank balance no longer meeting the definition of cash. If the contractual restrictions to use the cash extend beyond 12 months after the end of the reporting period, the related amounts are classified as non-current in Balance sheets.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**f.** **Restricted cash** 

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had pledged amounts of $57, respectively in favor of a bank as collateral for guarantees provided to secure its operating lease payments.

The Company is required to hold a minimum amount of NIS 86 in its bank account in order to maintain availability of a credit line from its credit card company.

The Company includes its restricted cash in cash and cash equivalents when reconciling beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the combined statement of cash flows.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**g.** **Property and equipment:** 

Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation.

Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, at the following annual rates:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
|  | % |
| Computers | 33 |
| Office furniture | 7-15 |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**h.** **Employee rights upon retirement** 

The Company is required to make severance payments upon dismissal of an employee or upon termination of employment in certain circumstances.

In accordance with the current employment terms with all of its employees located in Israel, and pursuant to Section 14 of the Israeli Severance Pay Law, 1963, the Company makes and has been continuously making, since the beginning of employment of each of its current employees, regular deposits, at a rate of 8.33% of their monthly salary, with certain insurance companies for accounts controlled by each applicable employee in order to secure the employee's full severance pay obligation.

Under these circumstances, the Company is currently relieved from any severance pay liability with respect to each such employee. Neither the liability in respect of these employees nor the credit for the amounts funded are reflected on the Company's consolidated balance sheets, as the amounts funded are not under the control or management of the Company and the severance pay risks have been irrevocably transferred to the applicable insurance companies.

The amounts of severance payment expenses were $179 and $122 for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**i.** **Fair value measurement** 

Fair value is based on the price that would be received from the sale of an asset or that would be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In order to increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements, the guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value into three broad levels, which are described as follows:

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs.

Level 2: Observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted on active markets, but corroborated by market data or active market data of similar or identical assets or liabilities.

Level 3 Unobservable inputs are used when little or no market data is available. The fair value hierarchy gives the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs.

In determining fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible and considers counterparty credit risk in its assessment of fair value.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**j.** **Financial instruments issued** 

When the Company issues freestanding instruments, the Company first analyzes the provisions of ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity ("ASC 480") in order to determine whether the instrument should be classified as a liability, with subsequent changes in fair value recognized in the statements of operations in each period. If the instrument was not within the scope of ASC 480, the Company further analyzes the provisions of ASC 815-40 in order to determine whether the instrument should be classified within equity or classified as an asset or liability, with subsequent changes in fair value recognized in the statements of operations in each period.

When the Company issued preferred shares, it first considered the provisions of ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity ("ASC 480") in order to determine whether the preferred share should be classified as a liability. If the instrument is not within the scope of ASC 480, the Company further analyzed the instrument's characteristics in order to determine whether it should be classified within temporary equity (mezzanine) or within permanent equity in accordance with the provisions of ASC 480-10-S99. The Company's redeemable convertible preferred shares were not mandatorily or currently redeemable. However, they included clauses that could constitute as in-substance redemption clauses that were outside of the Company's control. As such, all shares of redeemable convertible preferred shares had been presented outside of permanent equity. The Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares were converted into ordinary shares in the framework of the recapitalization transaction as described in Note 1(d).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**k.** **Contracts over Ordinary Shares** 

Warrants to purchase ordinary shares are not within the scope of ASC 480, and as such the Company further analyzes the provisions of ASC 815-40 in order to determine whether the contract should be classified within equity or classified as a liability, with subsequent changes in fair value recognized in the statements of operations in each period.

Under ASC 815-40, contracts that are not indexed to the Company's own stock are classified as liabilities recorded at fair value. As such, the Company classifies private warrants (see Note 3(e)) as liabilities and measures them at their fair value at each reporting period. This liability is subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date until the private warrants are exercised or expire, or upon reassessment of classification. Similarly, the Company classifies the ELOC Agreement entered into (see Note 3(d)) as a derivative instrument measured at fair value at each reporting period, as settlement provisions under this agreement are not indexed to the Company's own stock. Other warrants convertible to ordinary shares are considered indexed to the Company's own stock and meet the conditions for equity classification, and thus are presented within equity.

**NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES** (continued):

The Company reassesses the classification of a contract over its own equity under the guidance above at each balance sheet date. If classification changes as a result of events during the reporting period, the Company reclassifies the contract as of the date of the event that caused the reclassification. When a contract over own equity is reclassified from a liability to equity, gains or losses recorded to account for the contract at fair value during the period that the contract was classified as a liability are not reversed, and the contract is marked to fair value immediately before the reclassification.

The effect of Induced exercises of equity-classified warrants that is directly attributable to a proposed or actual equity offering are accounted for as an equity issuance cost.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**l.** **Promissory Notes** 

Under the Fair Value Option Subsection of ASC Subtopic 825-10, the Company has an irrevocable option to designate certain financial liabilities at fair value on an instrument-by-instrument basis, with changes in fair value reported in the statement of operations. The Company designated the Promissory Notes issued as part of the Transactions under the fair value option. See Note 3(a) and 3(b). Fair value gains and losses include interest expenses.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**m.** **Share-based compensation** 

The Company's employee and non-employee share-based payment awards are classified as equity awards. The Company accounts for these awards using the grant-date fair value method. The fair value of share-based payment transactions is recognized as an expense over the requisite service period using the straight-line method.

The Company elected to recognize compensation costs for awards conditioned only on continued service that have a graded vesting schedule using the straight-line method based on the multiple-option award approach. Forfeitures are recognized as they occur.

The Company accounts for its non-employees' equity-classified share-based payment in a similar manner.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**n.** **Research and development expenses** 

Research and development costs are charged to the statements of operations as incurred. Research and development expenses include costs directly attributable to the conduct of research and development programs, including the cost of payroll and subcontractors, as well as share-based payments. Advance payments for goods or services that will be used or rendered for future research and development activities are deferred. Such amounts are recognized as an expense as the related goods are used or the services are rendered.

Grants received from the Israeli Innovation Authority ("IIA") for approved research and development projects are recognized at the time the Company is entitled to such grants, on the basis of the costs incurred, and are included as a deduction from research and development expenses. See Note 7. The Company did not receive any grants during 2025 or 2024.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**o.** **Leases** 

The Company recognizes operating lease payments in the consolidated statements of operations on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Right-of-use ("ROU") assets represent the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the obligation to make minimum lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets are initially measured at amounts representing the discounted present value of the lease payments over the lease, plus any initial direct costs incurred. The lease liability is initially measured at lease commencement date based on the discounted present value of minimum lease payments over the lease term. The discount rate for the lease is the rate

in the lease unless that rate cannot readily determined. As the Company's leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses an estimated incremental borrowing rate ("IBR") based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The Company's IBR is estimated to approximate the interest rate for collateralized borrowing with similar terms and payments and in economic environments where the leased asset is located. During the reporting periods, the Company has only operating leases.

Payments under the Company's lease arrangements are primarily fixed; however, certain lease agreements contain variable payments, which are expensed as incurred and not included in the operating lease right-of-use assets and liabilities. The Company elected the practical expedient not to separate lease and non-lease components. The Company has made a policy election not to capitalize leases with a term of 12 months or less.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**p.** **Loss per share** 

The Company computes basic loss per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260, Earnings per Share, by dividing the net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year, and fully vested pre-funded options for the Company's ordinary shares at an exercise price of $0.339 or NIS 0.339 per share. The Company considers these shares to be exercised for little to no additional consideration.

Diluted loss per share is computed by considering the potential dilution that could occur upon the exercise of awards granted under share-based compensation plans and equity-classified instruments using the treasury stock method. Impact of liability-classified instruments on diluted loss per share is considered using the if-converted method. Diluted loss per share excludes all dilutive potential ordinary shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.

Prior to the Transactions, the Company calculated loss per share using the two-class method required for participating securities. This method entails allocating income available to ordinary shareholders for the period between ordinary shares and participating securities based on their respective rights to receive dividends as if all income for the period had been distributed. The Company considered its redeemable convertible preferred shares to be participating securities, as the holders of the redeemable convertible preferred shares were entitled to dividends that would be distributed to the holders of ordinary shares on a pro-rata basis, assuming conversion of all redeemable convertible preferred shares into ordinary shares. However, these participating securities did not contractually require the holders to participate in the Company's losses. Consequently, net loss for the applicable periods presented was not allocated to the Company's participating securities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**q.** **Income taxes:** 

1) Deferred taxes

Income taxes are computed using the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws. A valuation allowance is recognized to the extent that it is more likely than not that the deferred taxes will not be realized in the foreseeable future. Given the Company's losses, the Company has provided a full valuation allowance with respect to its deferred tax assets.

2) Uncertainty in income tax

The Company follows a two-step approach in recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the available evidence indicates that it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained upon examination, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. If this threshold is met, the second step is to measure the tax position as the largest amount that has more than a 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**r.** **Concentration of credit risks** 

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and long-term deposits. The Company deposits cash and cash equivalents mostly with four low risk financial institutions. The Company has not experienced any material credit losses in these accounts and does not believe it is exposed to significant credit risk on these instruments.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**s.** **Impairment of long-lived assets** 

The Company tests long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If the sum of expected future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) of the assets is less than the carrying amount of such assets, an impairment loss would be recognized. The assets would be written down to their estimated fair values, calculated based on the present value of expected future cash flows (discounted cash flows), or some other fair value measure.

For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company did not recognize an impairment loss for its long-lived assets

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**t.** **Comprehensive Loss** 

Comprehensive loss includes no items other than net loss.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**u.** **Loss Contingencies** 

Certain conditions may exist as of the date of the financial statements, which may result in a loss to the Company, but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company's management assesses such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment.

Management applies the guidance in ASC 450-20-25 when assessing losses resulting from contingencies. If the assessment of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability is recorded as accrued expenses in the Company's financial statements. If the assessment indicates that a potential material loss contingency is not probable but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, together with an estimate of the range of possible loss if determinable and material are disclosed. As of December 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, no contingent liabilities have been recognized.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;v. **New accounting pronouncements:** 

The Company qualifies as an emerging growth company ("EGC") as defined under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (the "JOBS Act"). Using exemptions provided under the JOBS Act for EGCs, the Company has elected to defer compliance with new or revised Accounting Standards Updates ("ASUs") until it is required to comply with such updates, which is generally consistent with the adoption dates of private companies.

#### Recently Adopted accounting pronouncements:
1) In June 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2022-03 "Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions". The ASU clarifies that a contractual restriction on the sale of an equity security is not considered part of the unit of account of the equity security and, therefore, is not considered in measuring its fair value. The ASU also clarifies that an entity cannot, as a separate unit of account, recognize and measure a contractual sale restriction. The ASU also introduces new disclosure requirements for equity securities subject to contractual sales restrictions. The Company adopted the ASU on January 1, 2025 and it did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statement.

#### Recently issued accounting standards not yet adopted:
1) In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03 Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40). The ASU improves the disclosures about a public business entity's expenses and provides more detailed information about the types of expenses in commonly presented expense captions. The amendments require that at each interim and annual reporting period an entity will, inter alia, disclose amounts of purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation and amortization included in each relevant expense caption (such as cost of sales, SG&A and research and development). The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating this ASU to determine its impact on the Company's disclosures.

2) In December, 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires disclosure of disaggregated income taxes paid, prescribes standard categories for the components of the effective tax rate reconciliation, and modifies other income tax-related disclosures. The ASU will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025, and allows adoption on a prospective basis, with a retrospective option. The Company is in the process of assessing the impacts and method of adoption.

3) In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-07 "Derivatives Scope Refinements and Scope Clarification for Share-Based Noncash Consideration from a Customer in a Revenue Contract". The ASU excludes from the derivative accounting certain non-exchange-traded contracts with contracts with underlying that are based on operations or activities specific to one of the parties to the contract. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted. The amendment can be applied either prospectively to new contracts entered into on or after the date of adoption or on a modified retrospective basis through cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings as of the beginning of the annual reporting period of adoption. The Company is in the process of evaluating the effects of the ASU on its contracts.

**NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES** (continued):

4) In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-10, Accounting for Government Grants Received by Business Entities, to amend the guidance in "Government Grants" (Topic 832). The update provides recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure requirements for government grants, including guidance for grants related to an asset and grants related to income. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2029, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is in the process of assessing the impact on its results of operations, financial position and disclosures, and in particular the impact on future IIA Support Grants (see Note 7).

5) In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11 to amend the guidance in "Interim Reporting" (Topic 270). The update provides clarifications intended to improve the consistency and usability of interim disclosure requirements, including a comprehensive listing of required interim disclosures and a new disclosure principle for reporting material events occurring after the most recent annual period. The amendments do not change the underlying objectives of interim reporting but are designed to enhance clarity in application. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2028, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is in the process of assessing the impacts of the ASU on its interim financial statements.

#### NOTE 3 - FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS ISSUED AND ASSUMED IN TRANSACTIONS
The following financial instruments were issued and became outstanding in connection with the Transactions:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**a.** **Underwriters Promissory Note** **Prior to the Closing, Moringa reached agreement with EarlyBird Capital, Inc. ("EarlyBird"), which served as the underwriter for Moringa's initial public offering ("IPO"), on the reduction, to $1,600, in the aggregate, of the fee payable to EarlyBird under the Marketing Agreement entered into by Moringa with EarlyBird at the time of Moringa's IPO. At the Closing, Moringa paid $350 of cash to EarlyBird from its trust account and Silexion issued to EarlyBird a convertible promissory note, due December 31, 2025, in an amount of $1,250 to be paid by Silexion to EarlyBird in cash or, at the election of EarlyBird upon maturity, via conversion of outstanding amounts into ordinary shares of Silexion (the "Underwriters Promissory Note"). The Underwriters Promissory Note bore interest at a rate of 6% per annum and was to mature on December 31, 2025. Silexion was required to make mandatory prepayments on the note in amounts equal to 10% of the gross proceeds received by Silexion from any equity financing consummated by it prior to the maturity date. As of December 31, 2024, the Company repaid $250 of the principal amount of the Underwriters Promissory Note as required in connection with its equity financing activities under the ELOC Agreement; see Note 3(d). During January 2025, the Company repaid $158 of the principal amount of the Underwriters Promissory Note. On March 13, 2025, the Company entered into a letter agreement with EarlyBird, under which the remaining $880 of outstanding principal amount and accrued interest under the Underwriters Promissory Note was extinguished in exchange for a cash payment by the Company (including accrued interest) of $551 and the Company's issuance to EarlyBird of 18,519 ordinary shares.** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**b.** **Sponsor/Related Party Promissory Note** **Effective as of the Closing, Silexion issued to the Sponsor in replacement in their entirety of all previously existing promissory notes issued by Moringa to the Sponsor from its IPO until the Closing, an amended and restated promissory note (the "Related Party Promissory Note", and, together with the Underwriters Promissory Note, the "Promissory Notes") in an amount of $3,433. This reflected the total amount owed by Moringa to the Sponsor through the Closing Date. The maturity date of the Related Party Promissory Note is the 30-month anniversary of the Closing Date (i.e., February 15, 2027). Amounts outstanding under the Related Party Promissory Note may be repaid (unless otherwise decided by Silexion) only by way of conversion into Silexion ordinary shares ("Note Shares"). Silexion and the Sponsor may also convert amounts outstanding under the Related Party Promissory Note at the price per share at which Silexion conducts an equity financing following the Closing, subject to a minimum conversion amount of $100, in an amount of Note Shares constituting up to thirty percent (30%) of the number of Silexion ordinary shares issued and sold by Silexion in such equity financing. The Sponsor may also elect to convert amounts of principal outstanding under the note into Silexion ordinary shares at any time following the 24-month anniversary of the Closing Date, subject to a minimum conversion of $10, at a price per share equal to the volume weighted average price of the Silexion ordinary shares on the principal market on which they are traded during the 20 consecutive trading days prior to the conversion date.**

The converted amount represented 30% of the funds raised by the Company in its September 2025 public offering, in accordance with the Company's conversion right under the Related Party Promissory Note.<br>As of December 31, 2025, $1,633 of the Related Party Promissory Note's principal amount remained outstanding.**<br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**c.** **PIPE Financing** **In connection with, and immediately prior to the Closing of the Transactions, Moringa raised $2,000 via a private investment in public entity financing (the "PIPE Financing"), whereby Moringa sold to Greenstar, LP, an affiliate of the Moringa Sponsor (the "PIPE Investor"), 1,482 newly issued Moringa ordinary shares at a price of $1,350.00 per share, pursuant to a subscription agreement, dated as of August 15, 2024, by and among Moringa, Silexion and the PIPE Investor (the "PIPE Agreement"). Those 1,482 shares were automatically converted upon the Closing of the Transactions into an equivalent number of Silexion ordinary shares (the "PIPE Shares").** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**d.** **ELOC Financing** **In connection with the Closing, Silexion entered into an ordinary share purchase agreement, effective as of the Closing Date (the "ELOC Agreement"), for an equity line of credit (the "ELOC") with White Lion Capital, LLC (the "ELOC Investor"), whereby Silexion was able to request to sell to the ELOC Investor, and the ELOC Investor was required to purchase, via private placement transactions, up to $15,000 of Silexion ordinary shares from time to time after the Closing, up until December 31, 2025. During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company sold 48,208 ordinary shares under the ELOC at an average price of $63.3 per share, net of fees of approximately $20.

No fractional shares will be issued upon exercise of the Warrants. Each Warrant became exercisable 30 days after the Closing and will expire five years after the Closing Date, or earlier upon liquidation of the Company.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**b.** **Induced Warrant Exercise Transactions** 

On January 29, 2025, the Company entered into an inducement offer letter agreement (the "January Inducement Offer") with holders of 148,102 of the Company's January Ordinary Warrants. Pursuant to the January Inducement Offer, on January 30, 2025, those holders exercised those warrants for cash and purchased 148,102 ordinary shares at a cash exercise price of $20.25 per share. As consideration for the holders' agreement to exercise, the Company issued to them new ordinary warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 148,102 ordinary shares at an exercise price of $22.50 per share (the "January New Ordinary Warrants"). The exercising holders also paid the Company an additional $1.88 per January New Ordinary Warrant issued to them. The Company received aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $3,276 from the exercise of the existing January Ordinary Warrants by the holders, net of placement agent fees and other offering expenses of $462.

Upon exercise for cash of any January New Ordinary Warrants, in certain circumstances, the placement agent will receive from the Company a cash fee of 8.0% of the aggregate gross exercise price. Pursuant to the January Inducement Offer transaction, the Company also issued to the placement agent warrants to purchase up to 10,368 ordinary shares, which have the same terms as the January New Ordinary Warrants issued in the transaction, except that the placement agent warrants have an exercise price equal to $27.66 per share. Upon exercise for cash of any January New Ordinary Warrants, in certain circumstances, the Company will issue to the placement agent warrants that are exercisable for 7.0% of the number of ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of those January New Ordinary Warrants. As of December 31, 2025, the payment of cash fees and issuance of additional warrants to the placement agent upon exercise of January New Ordinary Warrants were not probable.

Both the January New Ordinary Warrants and the placement agent warrants were immediately exercisable from the date of their issuance until April 1, 2027.

On July 31, 2025, the Company entered into an additional inducement offer letter agreement (the "July Inducement Offer") with holders of 152,106 of the Company's existing ordinary warrants, of which (i) 22,468 were January Ordinary Warrants, and (ii) 129,638 were January New Ordinary Warrants.

The closing under the July Inducement Offer occurred on August 1, 2025, when those holders exercised those warrants for cash and purchased 152,106 ordinary shares at a reduced cash exercise price of $11.57 per share. The Company received aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $1,760 from the exercise of the existing ordinary warrants by the holders, net of placement agent fees and other offering expenses of $278.

As consideration for the holders' agreement to exercise, the Company issued to them new ordinary warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 304,212 ordinary shares at an exercise price of $11.32 per share (the "July Ordinary Warrants"). The July Ordinary Warrants are exercisable from August 19, 2025 until the 24-month anniversary of the effective date of the resale registration statement under which the Company registered the resale of the ordinary shares underlying those warrants and the placement agent warrants (as referenced below)—i.e., until September 4, 2027.

Pursuant to the July Inducement Offer transaction, the Company also issued to the placement agent warrants to purchase up to 10,647 ordinary shares, which have the same terms as the July Ordinary Warrants, except that the placement agent warrants have an exercise price equal to $14.46 per share. Upon exercise for cash of any July Ordinary Warrants, in certain circumstances, the placement agent will receive from the Company a cash fee of 8.0% of the aggregate gross exercise price, as well as additional placement agent warrants exercisable for 7.0% of the number of ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of those July Ordinary Warrants.

**NOTE 10 - INCOME TAXES** (continued):

In assessing the realization of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that all or some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of the deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which temporary differences are deductible and net operating losses are utilized. Based on these factors, the Company recorded a full valuation allowance as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**i.** **Income tax assessments** 

Silexion Israel has tax assessments that are considered to be final through tax year 2019.

The Chinese Subsidiary does not have final tax assessments.

#### NOTE 11 - SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION:
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**a.** **Company Equity Incentive Plans** 

On July 14, 2025, the Company's shareholders approved an increase in the number of ordinary shares authorized for issuance under the Company's 2024 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2024 Plan") by 84,791 ordinary shares, increasing the total number of ordinary shares reserved for issuance under the 2024 Plan to 95,219 ordinary shares.

Under Silexion Israel's 2013 Share Option Plan and 2023 Equity Incentive Plan (collectively, the "Silexion Israel Plans," and, together with the 2024 Plan, the "Plans"), options to purchase ordinary shares of Silexion Israel were granted to certain entities and individuals. Each option granted under the Silexion Israel Plans is now exercisable for ordinary shares of the Company, until 10 years from the date of grant, or earlier upon cessation of employment or engagement of the grantee and certain other occurrences.

Following the adoption of the 2024 Plan in connection with the Closing of the Transactions, future grants to Company employees and directors will only be made under the 2024 Plan, although outstanding grants under the Silexion Israel Plans will continue to be governed by the terms of those plans. Grants to employees and directors are made in accordance with the Plans and are carried out within the provisions of Section 102 of the Israel Income Tax Ordinance, under the capital gains track described in subsection (b)(2) of Section 102. In accordance with such track selected by the Company and the provisions associated with it, the Company is not entitled to claim a tax deduction for the benefits derived by grantees under the Plans.

Awards outstanding under the Silexion Israel Plans prior to the Transactions accelerated immediately upon Closing, such that the Silexion options into which Silexion Israel options were converted were fully vested.

The Group's expenses related to equity grants amounted to totals of $134 and $5,862 in 2025 and 2024, respectively.

As of December 31, 2025, 86,573 Silexion ordinary shares remain available for grant under the 2024 Plan

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**b.** **RSU's granted to employees:** 

On February 9, 2025, Silexion's board of directors approved the grant of 3,968 RSUs, each of which may be settled for one underlying ordinary share, to Silexion's directors (as part of the same grant pursuant to which options were granted to the directors, as described below in "c. Options granted to employees"). The aggregate grant date fair value of the RSUs was approximately $75, based on a closing share price of $18.90 on the grant date.

On February 9, 2025, Silexion's board of directors approved granting 4,678 options (each exercisable for one underlying ordinary share) to Silexion's directors (as part of the same grant pursuant to which RSUs were granted to the directors, as described above in "b.

Once the Company sold shares under the agreement, the difference between cash raised (net of transaction costs) and the closing price of the Company's ordinary shares as of the date of their issuance was recognized as financing income or expenses. Fair value gain and losses arising from the ELOC Agreement are measured with reference to the spot price of the Company's shares sold, less consideration receivable from the ELOC Investor.**

The expected timing of conversion or repayment of the notes was determined using the Company's forecasts.**

**NOTE 12 - FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS** (continued)**:**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**d.** **Warrants to purchase ordinary shares** **A Black-Scholes-Merton model with Level 3 inputs was used to calculate the Company's warrants' fair value. Inherent in a Black-Scholes-Merton model are assumptions related to expected life (term), expected share price, volatility, risk-free interest rate and dividend yield. The Company estimates the volatility of its warrants based on implied volatility from the Company's traded warrants and from historical volatility of selected peer companies' ordinary shares that matches the expected remaining life of the warrants. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury zero-coupon yield curve on the grant date for a maturity similar to the expected remaining life of the warrants. The expected life of the warrants is assumed to be equivalent to their remaining contractual term. The dividend rate is based on the historical rate, which the Company anticipates will remain at zero. The following table provides quantitative information regarding Level 3 fair value measurement inputs of the warrants:**

---

Basic loss per share is computed on the basis of the net loss for the period divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period, and fully vested pre-funded warrants or options to purchase the Company's (or Silexion Israel's, as applicable) ordinary shares at an exercise price of $0.339 or NIS 0.339 per share, respectively, as the Company (or Silexion Israel, as applicable) considers these shares to be exercised for little to no additional consideration.<br>

## Exhibit 4.1

#### Exhibit 4.1

#### Description of Securities of Silexion Therapeutics Corp Registered Pursuant to Section 12 of the

#### Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
*As of March 10, 2026, Silexion Therapeutics Corp (the "Company," "Silexion," "we," "us," and "our") had two classes of securities registered under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"): our ordinary shares, par value $0.0135 per share ("ordinary shares" or "Silexion ordinary shares") and warrants to purchase Silexion ordinary shares ("warrants" or "Silexion warrants"). Set forth below is a summary of certain information concerning our share capital as well as a description of certain material terms of our Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, as amended (the "Silexion A&R Articles" or the "Articles"), which became effective upon the consummation of our business combination transaction (the "Business Combination") by and among Silexion, Moringa Acquisition Corp ("Moringa"), August M.S. Ltd., an Israeli company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Silexion ("Merger Sub 1"), Moringa Acquisition Merger Sub Corp, a Cayman Islands exempted company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Silexion ("Merger Sub 2"), and Silexion Therapeutics Ltd., an Israeli company ("Silexion Israel"), which closed on August 15, 2024 (the "Closing"), and certain Cayman Islands law matters.*

*Because the following is only a summary, it does not contain all of the information that may be important to you. The following summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to applicable Cayman Islands law and the Silexion A&R Articles, which have been publicly filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC").*

*Unless specifically provided otherwise herein, all share, per share and related warrant information presented herein has been retroactively adjusted to reflect the reduced number of shares and the increase in the share price which resulted from the 1-for-9 reverse share split that we effected on November 29, 2024 and the 1-for-15 reverse share split that we effected on July 29, 2025 (the "reverse share splits").*

#### General
We are a Cayman Islands exempted company with limited liability. Our affairs are governed by our Articles and the Companies Law (2021 Revision) of the Cayman Islands, as amended and restated from time to time (the "<u>Companies Law</u>").

The Silexion A&R Articles, as modified due to (i) the reverse share splits effected on November 29, 2024 and July 29, 2025, and (ii) the increase in authorized share capital that became effective on August 19, 2025, provide for an authorized share capital of $121,500 divided into 9,000,000 ordinary shares of a par value of US$0.0135 each ("<u>Silexion</u> <u>ordinary shares</u>" or "<u>ordinary shares</u>").

As proposed for adoption at an extraordinary general meeting originally scheduled to be held on March 16, 2026 and adjourned to March 23, 2026, the authorized share capital would be increased to $796,500 divided into 59,000,000 ordinary shares, par value $0.0135 per share.

#### Ordinary Shares
The holders of Silexion ordinary shares are entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters to be voted on by shareholders.

There is no cumulative voting, including with respect to the appointment of directors. As a result, the holders of a simple majority of the outstanding ordinary shares, being present and entitled to vote, can elect all of the directors at each annual general meeting. Each director's term ends at the next annual general meeting and upon the election of his or her successor.

------

Holders of Silexion ordinary shares do not have any conversion, preemptive or other subscription rights and there are no sinking fund or redemption provisions applicable to the Silexion ordinary shares.

#### Preference Shares
The Silexion A&R Articles do not authorize the issuance of any preference shares.

#### Warrants
As of March 10, 2026, we had several classes of warrants outstanding, consisting of the following:

1. **Public Warrants and Private Warrants**: Approximately 44,000 warrants in total (including 42,592 public warrants, which are listed, and trade, on the Nasdaq Capital Market, and 1,408 private warrants) that entitle the registered holder to purchase one Silexion ordinary share at a price of $1,552.50 per share, subject to adjustment as discussed below. These warrants will expire at the earlier to occur of (i) 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the fifth anniversary of the closing of the Business Combination (August 15, 2029), and (ii) the liquidation of the Company.

2. **January 2025 Public Offering Warrants**: Up to 33,661 ordinary shares underlie remaining outstanding ordinary warrants and up to 17,284 ordinary shares underlie placement agent warrants (all of which remain outstanding,) that were issued in our January 2025 public offering facilitated by H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC ("<u>H.C. Wainwright</u>") as placement agent. These ordinary warrants have an exercise price of $20.25 per ordinary share, and the placement agent warrants have an exercise price of $25.31 per ordinary share. All of such warrants are exercisable for five years from issuance (i.e., until January 15, 2030).

3. **Warrant Exercise Inducement Transaction Warrants**: Up to 18,464 ordinary shares and 304,212 ordinary shares are issuable under remaining outstanding investor warrants, and up to 10,368 ordinary shares and 10,647 ordinary shares underlie placement agent warrants, all of which were issued in warrant exercise inducement transactions facilitated by H.C. Wainwright in late January 2025 and early August 2025, respectively. These warrants have exercise prices of $22.50 and $11.32 per share for the investor warrants from the January 2025 and August 2025 transactions, respectively, and $27.66 and $14.46 per share for the placement agent warrants from the January 2025 and August 2025 transactions, respectively. Each of the foregoing warrants expires at the two-year anniversary of its issuance (January 30, 2027 and August 1, 2027 for warrants issued pursuant to the January 2025 and August 2025 warrant exercise inducement transactions, respectively).

4. **September 2025 Public Offering Warrants**: Up to 1,500,000 ordinary shares are issuable upon exercise of Series A ordinary warrants and up to 1,055,000 ordinary shares are issuable upon exercise of remaining outstanding Series B ordinary warrants, and up to 105,000 ordinary shares underlie placement agent warrants, all of which were issued in our September 2025 public offering facilitated by H.C. Wainwright as placement agent. The Series A warrants have a five-year term (expiring on September 11, 2030), the Series B warrants have a one-year term (expiring on September 11, 2026), and both have an exercise price of $4.00 per share. The placement agent warrants have an exercise price of $5.00 per share and a five-year term (expiring on September 11, 2030).

No warrant will be exercisable for cash, and we will not be obligated to issue ordinary shares upon exercise of a warrant unless the issuance of the ordinary shares upon exercise of the warrant has been registered, qualified or deemed to be exempt under the securities laws of the state of residence of the registered holder of the warrant. In the event that the condition in the immediately preceding sentence is not satisfied with respect to a warrant, the holder of such warrant will not be entitled to exercise such warrant for cash and such warrant may have no value and expire worthless. Warrants may not be exercised by, or securities issued to, any registered holder in any state in which such exercise or issuance would be unlawful.

In connection with the Business Combination, we agreed that as soon as practicable after the Closing, we would use our reasonable best efforts to file with the SEC a registration statement for the registration, under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "<u>Securities Act</u>"), of the issuance of the ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the public warrants and private warrants, and we would use our best efforts to cause the same to become effective and to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement and a current prospectus relating to those ordinary shares until those warrants expire or are redeemed. Pursuant to the foregoing undertaking, on October 8, 2024, we filed with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-1 for the registration of the issuance of Silexion ordinary shares underlying all public warrants and private warrants, which was declared effective by the SEC on October 16, 2024. We have maintained the effectiveness of that registration statement and have updated the prospectus contained therein by filing post-effective amendments and prospectus supplements throughout the period since that registration statement was declared effective by the SEC. Holders of those warrants have the right, during any period when we fail to maintain an effective registration statement covering the issuance of ordinary shares underlying those warrants, to exercise those warrants on a "cashless basis," by exchanging the warrants in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act or another available exemption. If an exemption from registration is not available, holders will not be able to exercise their public warrants or private warrants on a cashless basis.

The public warrants and private warrants were originally issued in registered form under a warrant agreement between Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as warrant agent, and Moringa, which agreement was expressly assumed by us in an agreement entered into at the Closing of the Business Combination. The warrant agreement provides that the terms of the warrants may be amended without the consent of any holder to cure any ambiguity or correct any defective provision, or add or change any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under the warrant agreement as the parties may deem necessary or desirable and that the parties deem shall not adversely affect the interest of the registered holders, including lowering the exercise price or extending the exercise period. All other modifications or amendments require the approval, by written consent or vote, of the holders of at least a majority of the then outstanding public warrants in order to make any change that adversely affects the interests of the registered holders.

The Silexion private warrants are identical to the Silexion public warrants, except that each Silexion private warrant is exercisable for cash (even if a registration statement covering the Silexion ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of such warrants is not effective) or on a cashless basis, at the holder's option, and will not be redeemable by the Company, in each case so long as they are still held by the Moringa sponsor, EarlyBirdCapital, Inc. (the representative of the underwriters of Moringa's initial public offering) or their respective affiliates.

We may call the public warrants for redemption, in whole and not in part, at a price of $0.01 per warrant, upon not less than 30 days' prior written notice of redemption to each warrant holder, if and only if

● the reported last sale price of the ordinary shares equals or exceeds $2,430.00 per share (as adjusted for share sub-divisions, share capitalizations, reorganizations and recapitalizations), for any 20
 trading days within a 30 trading day period ending on the third business day prior to the notice of redemption to warrant holders; and

● a registration statement is then in effect with respect to the ordinary shares underlying the public warrants.

The right to exercise will be forfeited unless the warrants are exercised prior to the date specified in the notice of redemption. On and after the redemption date, a record holder of a public warrant will have no further rights except to receive the redemption price for such holder's warrant upon surrender of such warrant.

------

The redemption criteria for public warrants have been established at a price which is intended to provide warrant holders a reasonable premium to the initial exercise price and provide a sufficient differential between the then-prevailing share price and the public warrant exercise price so that if the share price declines as a result of our redemption call, the redemption will not cause the share price to drop below the exercise price of the warrants.

If we call the public warrants for redemption as described above, our management will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise warrants prior to redemption to do so on a "cashless basis." In such event, each holder would pay the exercise price by surrendering the warrants for that number of ordinary shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of ordinary shares underlying the warrants, multiplied by the difference between the exercise price of the warrants and the "fair market value" (defined below) by (y) the fair market value. The "fair market value" shall mean the average reported last sale price of the ordinary shares for the five trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of public warrants.

The exercise price and number of ordinary shares issuable on exercise of the public warrants and private warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a share capitalization or our recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, the public warrants and private warrants will not be adjusted for issuances of ordinary shares at a price below their exercise price.

The public warrants and private warrants may be exercised upon surrender of the warrant certificate on or prior to the expiration date at the offices of the warrant agent, with the exercise form on the reverse side of the warrant certificate completed and executed as indicated, accompanied by full payment of the exercise price, by certified or official bank check payable to us, for the number of warrants being exercised. The warrant holders do not have the rights or privileges of holders of ordinary shares and any voting rights until they exercise their warrants and receive ordinary shares. After the issuance of ordinary shares upon exercise of the warrants, each holder will be entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters to be voted on by shareholders.

#### Transfer Agent and Warrant Agent
The transfer agent and registrar for our ordinary shares, and the warrant agent for our public warrants and private warrants, is Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company.

#### Trading Symbols
Our ordinary shares and public warrants are listed, and trade, on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbols "SLXN" and "SLXNW", respectively. <br>
