REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of BiomX Ltd.

 

Opinion on the Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of BiomX Ltd. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, the related consolidated statements of consolidated loss, changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2018, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”).

 

In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2018 and 2017 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2018, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audit. 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 in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the 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 audit, 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 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 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 financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

NOTE 1 — GENERAL

 

A.Description of business:

 

BiomX Ltd. (formerly known as MBcure Ltd.) (the “Company”) was incorporated in March 2015 and began operations in May 2015. The Company is developing bacteriophage-based therapies for the treatment and prevention of diseases stemming from dysbiosis of the microbiome. On May 11, 2017, the Company changed its name from MBcure Ltd. to BiomX Ltd.

 

BiomX was formed as an incubator company as part of the FutuRx incubator (the “Incubator” or “FutuRx”). The Company’s R&D program was approved by the Israel Innovation Authority (the “IIA”) at the Israeli Ministry of Economy and until 2017, the majority of BiomX’s funding was from IIA grants and funding by the Incubator, which is supported by the IIA. BiomX continued to apply for and receive IIA grants also after BiomX left the Incubator. The requirements and restrictions for such grants are found in the Israel Encouragement of Research and Development in Industries (the “Research Law”).

 

On November 27, 2017, the Company acquired 100% control and ownership of RondinX Ltd. (“RondinX,” see note 5).

 

B.Risk Factors:

 

To date, the Company has not generated revenue from its operations. As of June 30, 2019, the Company had unrestricted cash and cash equivalent balance and short-term deposits of approximately $35 million, which management believes is sufficient to fund its operations for more than 12 months from the date of issuance of these financial statements and sufficient to fund its operations necessary to continue development activities of its current proposed products.

 

Due to continuing R&D activities, the Company expects to continue to incur additional losses for the foreseeable future. The Company plans to continue to fund its current operations, as well as other development activities relating to additional product candidates, through future issuances of either debt and/or equity securities and possibly additional grants from the IIA and other government institutions. The Company’s ability to raise additional capital in the equity and debt markets is dependent on a number of factors including, but not limited to, the market demand for the Company’s stock, which itself is subject to a number of development and business risks and uncertainties, as well as the uncertainty that the Company would be able to raise such additional capital at a price or on terms that are favorable to the Company.

 

C.Use of estimates in the preparation of financial statements:

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the amounts of expenses during the reported periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Unaudited Interim Financial Statements

 

These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared as of June 30, 2019, and for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2019 and 2018. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been omitted. These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the accompanying notes of the Company as of and for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017.

NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

 

Operating results for the six-month period ended June 30, 2019, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2019

 

Significant Accounting Policies

 

The significant accounting policies followed in the preparation of these unaudited interim consolidated financial statements are identical to those applied in the preparation of the latest annual audited financial statements with the exception of the following:

 

A.Leases

 

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The Company adopted this ASU effective January 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective application, applying the ASU to leases in place as of the adoption date. Prior periods have not been adjusted.

 

Arrangements that are determined to be leases at inception are recognized as long-term right-of-use assets (“ROU”) and lease liabilities in the interim consolidated balance sheet at lease commencement. Operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. As the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company applies its incremental borrowing rate based on the economic environment at commencement date in determining the present value of future lease payments. Lease terms may include options to extend the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Lease expense for operating leases or payments are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

 

In accordance with ASC 360-10, management reviews operating lease ROU assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable based on estimated future undiscounted cash flows. If so indicated, an impairment loss would be recognized for the difference between the carrying amount of the asset and its fair value.

 

B.Stock compensation plans:

 

In June 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2018-07, “Compensation — Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting”, which simplifies the accounting for nonemployee share-based payment transactions by aligning the measurement and classification guidance, with certain exceptions, to that for share-based payment awards to employees. The amendments expand the scope of the accounting standard for share-based payment awards to include share-based payment awards granted to non-employees in exchange for goods or services used or consumed in an entity’s own operations and supersedes the guidance related to equity-based payments to non-employees. The Company adopted these amendments on January 1, 2019. The adoption of these amendments did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

 

C.Recent Accounting Standards:

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13 “Financial Instruments — Credit Losses” to improve information on credit losses for financial assets and net investment in leases that are not accounted for at fair value through net income. The ASU replaces the current incurred loss impairment methodology with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses. The Company plans to adopt this ASU in the first quarter of 2020. The Company does not expect that the adoption of this ASU will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

 

F-10

 

 

BIOMX LTD.

NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

 

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, “Changes to Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurements,” which will improve the effectiveness of disclosure requirements for recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements. The standard removes, modifies, and adds certain disclosure requirements and is effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2020. The Company does not expect that this standard will have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-18 — “Collaborative Arrangements (Topic 808),” which clarifies the interaction between Topic 808 and Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The Company expects to adopt this standard in the first quarter of fiscal year 2020. This standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

 

NOTE 3 — SHORT-TERM DEPOSIT

 

Short-term deposits represent time deposits placed with banks with original maturities of greater than three months but less than one year. Interest earned is recorded as interest income in the interim consolidated statement of operations during the periods for which the Company held short-term deposits.

 

The Company has deposits denominated in U.S. Dollars (“USD”) held with Bank Hapoalim US and Bank Leumi Israel that bear fixed annual interest of 2.4% to 3.6%.

 

NOTE 4 — LEASES

 

On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASU 2016-02 using the modified retrospective approach for all lease arrangements at the beginning period of adoption. Leases existing for the reporting period beginning January 1, 2019 are presented under ASU 2016-02. The Company leases office space under operating leases. At June 30, 2019, the Company’s ROU assets and lease liabilities for operating leases totaled $594 thousand each. The impact of adopting ASU 2016-02 was not material to the Company’s consolidated statement of operations for the periods presented.

 

In May 2017, the Company entered into a lease agreement for office space in Ness Ziona, Israel. The agreement is for five years beginning on June 1, 2017 with an option to extend for an additional five years. Monthly lease payments under the agreement are approximately $16 thousand. As part of the agreement, the Company has obtained a bank guarantee in favor of the property owner in the amount of approximately $92 thousand representing four monthly lease and related payments. Lease expenses recorded in the interim consolidated statements of operations were $48 thousand and $96 thousand for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively. Lease expenses recorded in the interim consolidated statements of operations were $48 thousand and $96 thousand for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively.

NOTE 4 — LEASES (cont.)

 

As of June 30, 2019, the Company’s operating leases had a weighted average remaining lease term of 3 years and a weighted average discount rate of 3%. Future lease payments under operating leases as of June 30, 2019 were as follows:

Less imputed interest   (26)
Total lease liability balance  $594 

 

NOTE 5 — ACQUISITION OF SUBSIDIARY

 

On November 19, 2017, the Company signed a share purchase agreement with the shareholders of RondinX. In accordance with the share purchase agreement, the Company acquired 100% ownership and control of RondinX for consideration valued at $4.5 million. The consideration included the issuance of 250,023 Preferred A Shares, the issuance of warrants to purchase an aggregate of 4,380 Series A-1 Preferred Shares, and additional contingent consideration. The contingent consideration is based on the attainment of future clinical, developmental, regulatory, commercial and strategic milestones relating to product candidates for treatment of primary sclerosing cholangitis or entry into qualifying collaboration agreements with certain third parties and may require the Company to issue 234,834 ordinary shares upon the attainment of certain milestones, as well as make future cash payments and/or issue additional shares of the most senior class of the Company’s shares authorized or outstanding as of the time the payment is due, or a combination of both of up to $32 million of the Company within ten years from the closing of the agreement and/or the entering of agreements with certain third parties or their affiliates that include a qualifying up-front fee and is entered into within three years from the closing of the agreement. The Company has the discretion of determining whether milestone payments will be made in cash or by issuance of shares.

 

The Company completed the RondinX acquisition on November 27, 2017.

 

The contingent consideration is accounted for at fair value (level 3). There were no changes in the fair value hierarchy leveling during the six months ended June 30, 2019 and the year ended December 31, 2018.

 

The change in the fair value of the contingent consideration as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 was as follows:

 

   Contingent
consideration
 
As of December 31, 2018   889

NOTE 10 — SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

In accordance with FASB ASC 855-10-50-1, the Company has analyzed its operations subsequent to June 30, 2019 and up until August 22, 2019, the date these interim consolidated financial statements were issued, and has determined that it does not have any material subsequent events to disclose except as follows:

 

A.On July 16, 2019, the Company entered into a merger agreement (the “Merger Agreement”), with Chardan Healthcare Acquisition Corp. (“CHAC”), CHAC Merger Sub Ltd. (“Merger Sub”), and Shareholder Representative Services LLC (“SRS”), pursuant to which, among other things, the Company will merge with Merger Sub. with the Company being the surviving entity in accordance with the Israeli Companies Law, 5759-1999 (the “Companies Law”), as a wholly owned direct subsidiary of CHAC (the “Merger”). CHAC is a SPAC (Special Purpose Acquisition Company), a corporation that is publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange. CHAC raised $70,000,000 in its initial public offering in 2018 and has not conducted any business other than seeking a party to a merger transaction (such as the Merger herein) where the cash CHAC raised, or part of it, will be used to finance the operations of the company it would merge with.

 

The consideration payable in the Merger consists of an aggregate of 16,625,000 shares of CHAC common stock, subject to reduction for indemnification claims (as described below), that will be issued (or reserved for issuance pursuant to currently exercisable options or warrants) in respect of shares of the Company that are issued and outstanding as of immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger (the “Closing”) and options and warrants to purchase shares of the Company, in each case, that are issued, outstanding and vested as of immediately prior to the Closing. Additional shares of CHAC common stock will be reserved for issuance in respect of options and warrants to purchase shares of the Company that are issued, outstanding and unvested as of immediately prior to the closing.

 

The closing of the Merger is subject to certain closing conditions. As of August 22, 2019, the date these interim consolidated financial statements were issued, the Merger has not closed.

 

B.In July 2019, the Company has committed to enter into loan agreements in the aggregate amount of up to $1,900 thousand, with certain of its shareholders who are subject to taxation in Israel, pursuant to which the Company will extend to such shareholders loans for the purpose of paying Israeli capital gain taxes payable by them in connection with the issuance to them of CHAC shares in exchange for their shares in the Company upon consummation of the Merger. Such loans are for a period of up to two years, are non-recourse and are secured by CHAC shares issued to them that have a value (based on $10 per share, the attributed price of the CHAC Shares immediately prior to such issuance that equals three times the loan amount.

C.In July 2019, the Company, Yeda and CHAC amended the 2015 License Agreement and to the 2017 License Agreement with Yeda (the “Amendment”). Pursuant to the Amendment, upon the closing of the Merger, the provisions of the Yeda license agreements related to the exit fee will be amended so that, instead of the exit fee, in the event of any merger or acquisition involving CHAC, CHAC is obliged to pay Yeda a one-time payment as described in the amendment which will not exceed 1% of the consideration received under such transaction.

BIOMX LTD.

(FORMERLY KNOWN AS: MBcure LTD)

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

NOTE 1 — GENERAL

 

A.General information:

 

BiomX Ltd. (formerly known as MBcure Ltd.) (the “Company”) was incorporated in March 2015 and began operations in May 2015. The Company is developing bacteriophage-based therapies for the treatment and prevention of diseases stemming from dysbiosis of the microbiome. On May 11, 2017, the Company changed its name from MBcure Ltd. to BiomX Ltd.

 

BiomX was formed as an incubator company as part of the FutuRx incubator (the “Incubator” or “FutuRx”), The Company’s R&D program was approved by the Israel Innovation Authority (the “IIA”) at the Israeli Ministry of Economy and until 2017, the majority of BiomX’s funding was from IIA grants and funding by the Incubator, which is supported by the IIA. BiomX continued to apply for and receive IIA grants also after BiomX left the Incubator. The requirements and restrictions for such grants are found in the Israel Encouragement of Research and Development in Industries (the “Research Law”).

 

On November 27, 2017, the Company acquired 100% control and ownership of RondinX Ltd. (“RondinX,” see note 5).

 

B.Risk factors:

 

To date, the Company has not generated revenue from its operations. As of July 17, 2019, the Company had unrestricted cash and cash equivalent balance and short-term deposits of approximately $34 million, which management believes is sufficient to fund its operations for more than 12 months from the date of issuance of these financial statements and sufficient to fund its operations necessary to continue development activities of its current proposed products.

 

Due to continuing R&D activities, the Company expects to continue to incur additional losses for the foreseeable future. The Company plans to continue to fund its current operations, as well as other development activities relating to additional product candidates, through future issuances of either debt and/or equity securities and possibly additional grants from the IIA and other government institutions. The Company’s ability to raise additional capital in the equity and debt markets is dependent on a number of factors including, but not limited to, the market demand for the Company’s stock, which itself is subject to a number of development and business risks and uncertainties, as well as the uncertainty that the Company would be able to raise such additional capital at a price or on terms that are favorable to the Company.

 

C.Use of estimates in the preparation of financial statements:

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the amounts of expenses during the reported years. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of the financial statements on a consistent basis, are as follows:

 

A.Basis of presentation and principles of consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, RondinX since its acquisition in November 2017. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

 

B.Functional currency and foreign currency translation:

 

The functional currency of the Company is the U.S dollar (“dollar”) since the dollar is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Company has operated and expects to continue to operate in the foreseeable future.

 

Transactions and balances denominated in dollars are presented at their original amounts.

 

Transactions and balances denominated in foreign currencies have been re-measured to dollars in accordance with the provisions of ASC 830-10, “Foreign Currency Translation.”

 

All transaction gains and losses from remeasurement of monetary balance sheet items denominated in non-dollar currencies are reflected in the statements of comprehensive loss as financial income or expenses, as appropriate.

 

C.Cash and cash equivalents:

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments, including unrestricted short-term bank deposits purchased with original maturities of three months or less, to be cash equivalents.

 

D.Short-term deposits:

 

Short-term deposits represent time deposits placed with banks with original maturities of greater than three months but less than one year. Interest earned is recorded as interest income in the consolidated statement of comprehensive loss during the years for which the Company held short-term deposits.

 

The Company has deposits denominated in USD held with Bank Hapoalim US and Bank Leumi Israel that bear fixed annual interest of 2.9% to 3.6%.

 

E.Property and equipment:

 

Property and equipment are presented at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation and amortization are calculated based on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets or terms of the related leases, as follows:

 

   % 
Laboratory equipment   15 
Computers and software   33 
Equipment and furniture   15 
Leasehold improvements   Shorter of lease term or useful life 

 

In accordance with ASC 360-10, management reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable based on estimated future undiscounted cash flows. If so indicated, an impairment loss would be recognized for the difference between the carrying amount of the asset and its fair value. For the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017, and 2016, no impairment expenses were recorded.

BIOMX LTD.

(FORMERLY KNOWN AS: MBcure LTD)

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

 

F.Intangible assets:

 

Intangible R&D assets acquired in a business combination (IPR&D) are recognized at fair value as of the acquisition date and subsequently accounted for as indefinite-lived intangible assets until completion or abandonment of the associated R&D efforts.

 

Indefinite-lived intangible assets are reviewed for impairment at least annually or whenever there is an indication that the asset may be impaired.

 

G.Income taxes:

 

The Company provides for income taxes using the asset and liability approach. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities and the tax rates in effect when these differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. As of December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company had a full valuation allowance against deferred tax assets.

 

The Company is subject to the provisions of ASC 740-10-25, Income Taxes (ASC 740). ASC 740 prescribes a more likely-than-not threshold for the financial statement recognition of uncertain tax positions. ASC 740 clarifies the accounting for income taxes by prescribing a minimum recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. On a yearly basis, the Company undergoes a process to evaluate whether income tax accruals are in accordance with ASC 740 guidance on uncertain tax positions. The Company has not recorded any liability for uncertain tax positions for the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017, or 2016.

 

H.Fair value of financial instruments

 

The Company accounts for financial instruments in accordance with ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC 820”). ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC 820 are described below:

 

Level 1 — Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2 — Quoted prices in non-active markets or in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, observable inputs other than quoted prices, and inputs that are not directly observable but are corroborated by observable market data.

 

Level 3 — Prices or valuations that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.

 

There were no changes in the fair value hierarchy leveling during the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017, and 2016.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

 

The following table summarizes the fair value of our financial assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis, by level within the fair value hierarchy, as of December 31, 2018 and 2017:

 

   December 31, 2018 
   Level 1   Level 2   Level 3   Fair Value 
Liabilities                
Contingent consideration       1,333    889    889 

 

   December 31, 2017 
   Level 1   Level 2   Level 3   Fair Value 
Liabilities                
Contingent consideration           1,001    1,001 

 

Financial instruments with carrying values approximating fair value include cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, short-term deposits, other current assets, trade accounts payable and other current liabilities, due to their short-term nature.

 

I.R&D costs:

 

R&D costs are charged to statements of comprehensive loss as incurred.

 

J.Basic and diluted loss per share:

 

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of Ordinary and Ordinary A Shares outstanding during the year. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of Ordinary Shares and Ordinary A Shares outstanding during the year, plus the number of Ordinary Shares and Ordinary A Shares that would have been outstanding if all potentially dilutive Ordinary Shares and Ordinary A Shares had been issued, using the treasury stock method, in accordance with ASC 260-10 “Earnings per Share.” Potentially dilutive Ordinary Shares and Ordinary A Shares were excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share for all periods presented due to their anti-dilutive effect due to losses in each period.

 

K.Defined contribution plans:

 

Under Israeli employment laws, employees of the Company are included under Article 14 of the Severance Compensation Act, 1963 (“Article 14”) for a portion of their salaries. According to Article 14, these employees are entitled to monthly deposits made by the Company on their behalf with insurance companies.

 

Payments in accordance with Article 14 release the Company from any future severance payments (under the Israeli Severance Compensation Act, 1963) with respect of those employees. The aforementioned deposits are not recorded as an asset on the Company’s balance sheet, and there is no liability recorded as the Company does not have a future obligation to make any additional payments. The Company’s contributions to the defined contribution plans are charged to the consolidated statement of comprehensive loss as and when the services are received from the Company’s employees. Total expenses with respect to these contributions were $283 thousand, $145 thousand, and $42 thousand for the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017, and 2016, respectively.

The Company applies ASC 718-10, “Share-Based Payment,” (“ASC 718-10”) which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expenses for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors including employee stock options under the Company’s stock plans based on estimated fair values.

 

ASC 718-10 requires companies to estimate the fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The fair value of the award is recognized as an expense over the requisite service periods in the Company’s statements of comprehensive loss. The Company recognizes share-based award forfeitures as they occur rather than estimate by applying a forfeiture rate.

 

The Company accounts for share-based compensation awards to non-employees in accordance with FASB ASC 505-50, “Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees” (“FASB ASC 505-50”). Under FASB ASC 505-50, the Company determines the fair value of the warrants or share-based compensation awards granted as either the fair value of the consideration received, or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.

 

All issuances of stock options or other equity instruments to non-employees as consideration for goods or services received by the Company are accounted for based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued. Non-employee share-based payments are recorded as an expense over the service period, as if the Company had paid cash for the services. At the end of each financial reporting period, prior to vesting or prior to the completion of the services, the fair value of the share-based payments will be remeasured and the non-cash expense recognized during the period will be adjusted accordingly. Since the fair value of share- based payments granted to non-employees is subject to change in the future, the amount of the future expense will include fair value remeasurements until the share-based payments are fully vested or the service completed.

 

The Company recognizes compensation expense for the fair value of non-employee awards over the requisite service period of each award.

 

The Company estimates the fair value of stock options granted as equity awards using a Black-Scholes options pricing model. The option-pricing model requires a number of assumptions, of which the most significant are share price, expected volatility and the expected option term (the time from the grant date until the options are exercised or expire). Expected volatility is estimated based on volatility of similar companies in the technology sector. The Company has historically not paid dividends and has no foreseeable plans to issue dividends. The risk-free interest rate is based on the yield from governmental zero-coupon bonds with an equivalent term. The expected option term is calculated for options granted to employees and directors using the “simplified” method. Grants to non-employees are based on the contractual term. Changes in the determination of each of the inputs can affect the fair value of the options granted and the results of operations of the Company.

 

M.Recent Accounting Standards:

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02 “Leases” to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. For operating leases, the ASU requires a lessee to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability, initially measured at the present value of the lease payments, on its balance sheet. The ASU retains the current accounting for lessors and does not make significant changes to the recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows by a lessee.

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

 

In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-11, “Targeted Improvements — Leases (Topic 842).” This update provides an optional transition method that allows entities to elect to apply the standard prospectively at its effective date versus recasting the prior periods presented. If elected, an entity would recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. The Company plans to adopt this ASU in the first quarter of 2019.

 

While the Company continues to assess all of the effects of adoption, it currently believes the most significant effects from implementing this standard relate to the recognition of new right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities on its balance sheet for office space operating lease. Upon adoption, the Company currently expects to recognize additional ROU assets and lease liabilities of approximately $377K, based on the present value of the remaining minimum rental payments under current leasing standards for its existing operating lease.

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13 “Financial Instruments — Credit Losses” to improve information on credit losses for financial assets and net investment in leases that are not accounted for at fair value through net income. The ASU replaces the current incurred loss impairment methodology with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses. The Company plans to adopt this ASU in the first quarter of 2020. The Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07 “Compensation — Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting.” These amendments expand the scope of Topic 718, Compensation — Stock Compensation (which currently only includes share-based payments to employees) to include share-based payments issued to nonemployees for goods or services. Consequently, the accounting for share-based payments to nonemployees and employees will be substantially aligned. The ASU supersedes Subtopic 505-50, Equity — Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees. The Company plans to adopt this standard in the first quarter of 2019. ASU 2018-07 is not expected to have a material impact on Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, “Changes to Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurements,” which will improve the effectiveness of disclosure requirements for recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements. The standard removes, modifies, and adds certain disclosure requirements and is effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2020. The Company does not expect that this standard will have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-18 — “Collaborative Arrangements (Topic 808),” which clarifies the interaction between Topic 808 and Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The Company expects to adopt this standard in the first quarter of fiscal year 2020. This standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

A.On December 29, 2016, the Economic Efficiency Law (the “EEL”)- 2016 was enacted, which states that the Corporate Tax Rate (as defined in the EEL) in 2017 will be reduced from 25% to 24% on income earned from January 1, 2017, and will continue to be reduced to 23% in 2018 and thereafter on income earned from January 1, 2018.

 

B.As of December 31, 2018 and 2017 the Company had total net operating losses in Israel of approximately $10,556 and $5,689, respectively which may be carried forward and offset against taxable income in the future for an indefinite period.

 

C.The Company is still in its development stage and has not yet generated revenue, therefore, it is more likely than not that sufficient taxable income will not be available for the tax losses to be utilized in the future. Therefore, a valuation allowance was recorded to reduce the deferred tax assets to its recoverable amounts.
