PhaseBio Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Registrant”) is unable to file, without unreasonable effort or expense, its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 within the prescribed time period. As previously disclosed, on October 23, 2022, the Registrant filed a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 of Title 11 (“Chapter 11”) of the United States Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “Bankruptcy Court”), thereby commencing a Chapter 11 case (the “Chapter 11 Case”) for the Registrant (Case No. 22-10995-LSS). Due to the considerable time and resources the Registrant’s management is devoting to the Chapter 11 Case, the Registrant does not have the funds or personnel necessary to prepare and timely file its Annual Report on Form 10-K on or before the March 31, 2023 due date without unreasonable effort or expense. The Registrant cannot at this time estimate when it will be able to file its Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The Company has concluded that it is unable to file an Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 (or other Periodic Reports) without unreasonable effort and expense for the reasons described in Part III of this Form 12b-25. The Company’s results of operations for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 differed significantly from its results of operations for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 due to significant adverse developments that occurred with respect to the Company’s business and liquidity, including events precipitating the suit commenced against the Company on October 7, 2020 by SFJ Pharmaceuticals X, Ltd., an SFJ Pharmaceuticals Group company (“SFJ”) in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, Civil Action No. 2:22-cv-04027 (the “Prepetition Litigation”), asserting certain claims related to the Co-Development Agreement entered into on January 9, 2020, by and between the Company and SFJ (the “Co-Development Agreement”), pursuant to which SFJ provided funding to the Company to support development of bentracimab (also known as PB2452), the adversary proceeding (the “Adversary Proceeding”) commenced on October 31, 2022 by the Company against SFJ in the Bankruptcy Court (Case No. 22-50456) related to the Co-Development Agreement, and other events preceding the commencement of the Chapter 11 Case, and the settlement agreement subsequently entered into on January 13, 2023 between the Company and SFJ to resolve the disputes raised in the Adversary Proceeding and the Prepetition Litigation, pursuant to which the Company transferred of all of the Company’s right, title and interest in the Company’s business related to bentracimab to SFJ pursuant to a program transfer agreement between the Company and SFJ in satisfaction of SFJ’s secured claim in the Chapter 11 Case. The Company is filing operating reports with the Bankruptcy Court relating to periods subsequent to October 23, 2022 and will continue to include these operating reports as exhibits to the Company’s Current Reports on Form 8-K.
