NOTE 1:-DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND GENERAL (CONT.)

As of December 31, 2021, the Company's working capital amounted to $13.3 million and its accumulated deficit amounted to approximately $12.1 million. The Company's liquidity position, as well as its operating performance, may be negatively affected by other financial and business factors, many of which are beyond its control.

-The coronavirus, also known as "COVID-19", has spread across the globe and is impacting worldwide economic activity. Government authorities have implemented emergency measures to mitigate the spread of the virus. The outbreak and the related mitigation measures may have an adverse impact on global economic conditions as well as on the Company's business activities specifically related to possible raw materials shortage, employees' isolation requirements and change in customers' demand for the Company's products. The extent to which the coronavirus may impact the Company's business activities will depend on future developments, such as the duration of the outbreak, travel restrictions, business disruptions, and the effectiveness of actions taken in Israel and other countries to contain and treat the disease. These events are highly uncertain and as such, the Company cannot determine their financial impact at this time.
