NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

a. General:

1) Incorporation and operations

Oramed Pharmaceuticals Inc. (collectively with its subsidiary, the “Company”, unless the context indicates otherwise) was incorporated on April 12, 2002, under the laws of the State of Nevada. From incorporation until March 3, 2006, the Company was an exploration stage company engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties. On February 17, 2006, the Company entered into an agreement with Hadasit Medical Services and Development Ltd. to acquire the provisional patent related to an orally ingestible insulin capsule to be used for the treatment of individuals with diabetes.

On May 14, 2007, the Company incorporated a wholly-owned subsidiary in Israel, Oramed Ltd. (the “Subsidiary”), which is engaged in research and development.

On March 11, 2011, the Company was reincorporated from the State of Nevada to the State of Delaware.

On November 30, 2015, the Company entered into a Technology License Agreement with Hefei Tianhui Incubator of Technologies Co. Ltd. (“HTIT”) and on December 21, 2015, the parties entered into an Amended and Restated Technology License Agreement that was further amended by the parties on June 3, 2016 and July 24, 2016 (the “License Agreement”). According to the License Agreement, the Company granted HTIT an exclusive commercialization license in the territory of the People’s Republic of China, Macau and Hong Kong (the “Territory”), related to the Company’s oral insulin capsule, ORMD-0801 (the “Product”). Pursuant to the License Agreement, HTIT will conduct, at its own expense, certain pre-commercialization and regulatory activities with respect to the Subsidiary’s technology and ORMD-0801 capsule, and will pay to the Subsidiary (i) royalties of 10% on net sales of the related commercialized products to be sold by HTIT in the Territory (“Royalties”), and (ii) an aggregate of $37,500, of which $3,000 was payable immediately, $8,000 was paid subject to the Company entering into certain agreements with certain third parties, and $26,500 is payable upon achievement of certain milestones and conditions. In the event that the Company does not meet certain conditions, the Royalties rate may be reduced to a minimum of 8%. Following the final expiration of the Company’s patents covering the technology in the Territory in 2033, the Royalties rate may be reduced, under certain circumstances, to 5%.

The royalty payment obligation shall apply during the period of time beginning upon the first commercial sale of the Product in the Territory, and ending upon the later of (i) the expiration of the last-to-expire licensed patents in the Territory; and (ii) 15 years after the first commercial sale of the Product in the Territory (the “Royalty Term”).

The License Agreement shall remain in effect until the expiration of the Royalty Term. The License Agreement contains customary termination provisions.

NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued):

Among others, the Company’s involvement through the product submission date will include consultancy for the pre-commercialization activities in the Territory, as well as advisory services to HTIT on an ongoing basis.

The initial payment of $3,000 was received in January 2016. Following the achievement of certain milestones, the second and third payments of $6,500 and $4,000, respectively, were received in July 2016, the fourth milestone payment of $4,000 was received in October 2016 and the fifth milestone payment of $3,000 was received in January 2019. Milestone payments received as of February 28, 2019 totaled $20,500.

In addition, on November 30, 2015, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with HTIT (the “SPA”). According to the SPA, the Company issued 1,155,367 shares of common stock to HTIT for $12,000. The transaction closed on December 28, 2015.

In July 2015, according to the letter of intent signed between the parties or their affiliates, HTIT’s affiliate paid the Subsidiary a non-refundable amount of $500 as a no-shop fee. The no-shop fee was deferred and the related revenue is recognized over the estimated term of the License Agreement.

For revenue recognition policy see note 1c.

2) Development and liquidity risks

The Company is engaged in research and development in the biotechnology field for innovative pharmaceutical solutions, including an orally ingestible insulin capsule to be used for the treatment of individuals with diabetes, and the use of orally ingestible capsules for delivery of other polypeptides, and has not generated significant revenues from its operations. Based on the Company’s current cash resources and commitments, the Company believes it will be able to maintain its current planned development activities and the corresponding level of expenditures for at least the next 12 months and beyond, although no assurance can be given that the Company will not need additional funds prior to such time. If there are unexpected increases in the Company’s operating expenses, it may need to seek additional financing during the next 12 months. Successful completion of the Company’s development programs and its transition to normal operations is dependent upon obtaining necessary regulatory approvals from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration prior to selling its products within the United States, obtaining foreign regulatory approvals to sell its products internationally, or entering into licensing agreements with third parties. There can be no assurance that the Company will receive regulatory approval of any of its product candidates, and a substantial amount of time may pass before the Company achieves a level of revenues adequate to support its operations, if at all. The Company also expects to incur substantial expenditures in connection with the regulatory approval process for each of its product candidates during their respective developmental periods. Obtaining marketing approval will be directly dependent on the Company’s ability to implement the necessary regulatory steps required to obtain marketing approval in the United States and in other countries. The Company cannot predict the outcome of these activities.

NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued):

b. Loss per common share

Basic and diluted net loss per common share are computed by dividing the net loss for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for each period. Outstanding stock options, warrants and restricted stock units (“RSUs”) have been excluded from the calculation of the diluted loss per share because all such securities are anti-dilutive for all periods presented. The weighted average number of common stock options, warrants and RSUs excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss was 4,293,395 and 1,406,175 for the six-month periods ended February 28, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and 4,234,081 and 1,388,122 for the three-month periods ended February 28, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

c. Revenue recognition

The License Agreement and the SPA were considered a single arrangement with multiple deliverables. The Company allocated the total consideration of $49,500 between the License Agreement and the SPA according to their fair value, as follows: $10,617 was allocated to the issuance of common stock (less issuance expenses of $23), based on the quoted price of the Company’s shares on the closing date of the SPA on December 28, 2015, and $38,883 was allocated to the License Agreement.

Under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 605 (which was the authoritative revenue recognition guidance applied for all periods prior to September 1, 2018) given the Company’s continuing involvement through the expected product submission in June 2023, amounts received relating to the License Agreement were recognized over the period from which the Company was entitled to the respective payment, and the expected product submission date using a time-based model approach over the periods that the fees were earned.

On September 1, 2018, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” (“ASC 606”), using the modified retrospective method of adoption. Under this method, the Company applied ASC 606 to the License Agreement at the adoption date and was required to make an adjustment to the September 1, 2018 opening accumulated deficit balance. All prior periods continue to be presented under ASC 605. The most significant impact from adopting ASC 606 was the impact of the timing of recognition of revenue associated with the milestone payment. Under ASC 605, which was the authoritative revenue recognition guidance applied for all periods prior to September 1, 2018, given the Company’s continuing involvement through the expected product submission in June 2023, amounts received relating to the License Agreement were recognized over the period from which the Company was entitled to the respective payment and the expected product submission date using a time-based model approach over the periods that the fees were earned. However, under ASC 606, the Company is required to recognize the total transaction price (which includes consideration related to milestones once the criteria for recognition have been satisfied) using the input method over the period the performance obligation is fulfilled. Accordingly, once the consideration associated with a milestone is included in the transaction price, incremental revenue is recognized immediately based on the period of time that has elapsed towards complete satisfaction of the performance obligation. This method results in the recognition of revenue earlier than under ASC 605, and the resulting impact was recorded as a reduction of the opening balance of accumulated deficit at September 1, 2018, as further described below.

NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued):

Under ASC 606, the Company identified a single performance obligation in the agreement and determined that the license and services are not distinct as the license and services are highly dependent on each other. In other words, HTIT cannot benefit from the license without the related services, and vice versa.

Since the customer benefits from the services as the entity performs, revenue is recognized over time through the expected product submission date in June 2023, using the input method. The Company used the input method to measure the process for the purpose of recognizing revenue, which approximates the straight line attribution. The Company used significant judgment when it determined the product submission date.

Under ASC 606, the consideration that the Company would be entitled to upon the achievement of contractual milestones, which are contingent upon the occurrence of future events, are a form of variable consideration. When assessing the portion, if any, of such milestones-related consideration to be included in the transaction price, the Company first assesses the most likely outcome for each milestone and excludes the consideration related to milestones of which the occurrence is not considered the most likely outcome.

The Company then evaluates if any of the variable consideration determined in the first step is constrained by including in the transaction price variable consideration to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved. The Company used significant judgment when it determined the first step of variable consideration.

The potential future royalty consideration is also considered a form of variable consideration under ASC 606 as it is based on a percentage of potential future sales of the Company’s products. However, the Company applies the sales-based royalty exception and accordingly will recognize the sales-based royalty amounts at the earlier of the time (a) when the related sale has occurred and (b) the Company has fulfilled the related performance obligation. To date, the Company has not recognized any royalty-related revenue.

As of the adoption date, the Company adjusted its accumulated deficit by $1,773 against contract liabilities due to the effect of variable consideration.

Amounts that were allocated to the License Agreement as of February 28, 2019 aggregated $22,382, all of which was received through the balance sheet date. Through February 28, 2019, the Company recognized revenue associated with this agreement in the aggregate amount of $8,659 (of which $1,340 was recognized in the six-month period ended February 28, 2019 and $1,773 was recognized as an increase to the September 1, 2018 opening balance of stockholders’ equity associated with the impact of the adoption of ASC 606 under the modified retrospective method of adoption), and deferred the remaining amount of $13,723, which is presented as a contract liability on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. During the six-month and three-month periods ended February 28, 2019, the Company recognized revenue in the amount of $1,143 and $568, respectively, that was included in the contract liabilities balance at the beginning of the period.

d. Financial instruments

In January 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance which updates certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of financial assets and financial liabilities (“ASU 2016-01”). The guidance requires entities to recognize changes in fair value in net income rather than in accumulated other comprehensive income. The Company adopted the provisions of this update in the first quarter of fiscal year 2019. Following the adoption, as of September 1, 2018, the Company classified the available for sale securities (investments in equity securities of D.N.A Biomedical Solutions Ltd. (“D.N.A”) and Entera Bio Ltd. (“Entera”)) to financial assets measured in fair value through profit or loss. The Company adopted the standard using the modified retrospective method and, accordingly, reclassified the cumulative unrealized gain from accumulated other comprehensive income to a reduction of its accumulated deficit in an amount of $702.

e. Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements Preparation

The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and, except as described in note 1f, on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2018 (the “2018 Form 10-K”). These condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments that are of a normal recurring nature and that are considered necessary for a fair statement of the results of the periods presented. Certain information and disclosures normally included in annual consolidated financial statements have been omitted in this interim period report pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Because the condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include all of the information and disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements, they should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes included in the 2018 Form 10-K. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of a full fiscal year’s results.

f. Newly issued and recently adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASC 606 which supersedes existing revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. Under the new standard, a good or service is transferred to the customer when (or as) the customer obtains control of the good or service, which differs from the risk and rewards approach under current guidance. The guidance provides a five-step analysis of transactions to determine when and how revenue is recognized. Other major provisions include capitalization of certain contract costs, consideration of the time value of money in the transaction price, and allowing estimates of variable consideration to be recognized before contingencies are resolved in certain circumstances. The guidance also requires enhanced disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from an entity’s contracts with customers. The guidance is effective in annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. The Company implemented the guidance for its annual period ending on August 31, 2019 and interim periods within such annual period. The Company adopted the standard using the modified retrospective method. See additional information regarding the adoption in note 1c.

NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued):

In January 2016, the FASB issued guidance on recognition and measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities (ASU 2016-01) that supersedes most current guidance. Changes to the U.S. GAAP model primarily affect the accounting for equity investments, financial liabilities under the fair value option and the presentation and disclosure requirements for financial instruments. In addition, the FASB clarified guidance related to the valuation allowance assessment when recognizing deferred tax assets resulting from unrealized losses on available-for-sale debt securities. The accounting for other financial instruments, such as loans, investments in debt securities, and financial liabilities, is largely unchanged. The classification and measurement guidance under ASU 2016-01 became effective as of September 1, 2018. See additional information regarding the adoption in note 1d.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)” (“ASU 2016-02”), which supersedes the existing guidance for lease accounting, “Leases (Topic 840)”. ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to recognize leases on their balance sheets, and leaves lessor accounting largely unchanged. The amendments in ASU 2016-02 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted for all entities. ASU 2016-02 requires a modified retrospective approach for all leases existing at, or entered into after, the date of initial application, with an option to elect to use certain transition relief. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 2 - COMMITMENTS:

a. In March 2011, the Subsidiary sold shares of its investee company, Entera, to D.N.A, retaining 117,000 ordinary shares (after giving effect to a stock split by Entera in July 2018). In consideration for the shares sold to D.N.A, the Company received, among other payments, ordinary shares of D.N.A (see also note 4).

As part of this agreement, the Subsidiary entered into a patent transfer agreement (the “Patent Transfer Agreement”) according to which the Subsidiary assigned to Entera all of its right, title and interest in and to a certain patent application related to the oral administration of proteins that it has licensed to Entera since August 2010. Under this agreement, the Subsidiary is entitled to receive from Entera royalties of 3% of Entera’s net revenues (as defined in the agreement) and a license back of that patent application for use in respect of diabetes and influenza. On December 11, 2018, Entera announced that it had entered into a research collaboration and license agreement (the “Amgen License”) with Amgen related to research of inflammatory disease and other serious illnesses. As reported by Entera, under the terms of the Amgen License, Entera will receive a modest initial technology access fee from Amgen and will be responsible for preclinical development at Amgen’s expense. Entera will be eligible to receive up to $270,000 in aggregate payments, as well as tiered royalties up to mid-single digits, upon achievement of various clinical and commercial milestones if Amgen decides to move all of these programs forward. Amgen is responsible for clinical development, manufacturing and commercialization of any of the resulting programs. To the extent the Amgen License results in net revenues as defined in the Patent Transfer Agreement, the Subsidiary will be entitled to the aforementioned royalties.

In addition, as part of a consulting agreement with a third party, dated February 15, 2011, the Subsidiary is obliged to pay this third party royalties of 8% of the net royalties received in respect of the patent that was sold to Entera in March 2011.

o. Grants from the Israel Innovation Authority (“IIA”)

Under the terms of the Company’s funding from the IIA, royalties of 3% are payable on sales of products developed from a project so funded, up to a maximum amount equaling 100%-150% of the grants received (dollar linked) with the addition of interest at an annual rate based on LIBOR.

At the time the grants were received, successful development of the related projects was not assured. The total amount that was received through February 28, 2019 was $2,194.

The royalty expenses which are related to the funded project were recognized in cost of revenues in the quarter ended February 28, 2019 and in prior periods.

NOTE 3 - FAIR VALUE:

The Company measures fair value and discloses fair value measurements for financial assets. Fair value is based on the price that would be received to sell an asset 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 other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.

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.

As of February 28, 2019, the assets measured at fair value are comprised of equity securities (Level 1). The fair value of held to maturity bonds as presented in note 4 was based on a Level 1 measurement.

As of February 28, 2019, the carrying amounts of cash equivalents, short-term deposits and accounts payable approximate their fair values due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.

As of February 28, 2019, the carrying amounts of long-term deposits approximate their fair values due to the stated interest rates which approximate market rates.

The amounts funded in respect of employee rights are stated at cash surrender value which approximates its fair value.

There were no Level 3 items for the six-month periods ended February 28, 2019 and 2018.

Overview of Operations

We are a pharmaceutical company currently engaged in the research and development of innovative pharmaceutical solutions, including an oral insulin capsule to be used for the treatment of individuals with diabetes, and the use of orally ingestible capsules or pills for delivery of other polypeptides.

Recent business developments

Product Candidates

Oral Insulin

In April 2018, we initiated a three-month dose-ranging Phase IIb clinical trial of our proprietary flagship product, an orally ingestible insulin capsule, or ORMD-0801. This placebo controlled, randomized, 90 day treatment clinical trial is being conducted on approximately 285 type 2 diabetic patients in multiple centers throughout the United States pursuant to an Investigational New Drug application, or IND, with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or FDA. The primary endpoints of the trial are to assess the safety and evaluate the effect of ORMD-0801 on HbA1c levels over a 90 day treatment period. Secondary endpoints of the trial include measurements of fasting plasma glucose, or FPG, post-prandial glucose, or PPG levels, during a mixed-meal tolerance test, or MMTT, and weight. We intend to submit an extension of this protocol for approximately 75 type 2 diabetic patients, to be dosed using a lower dosage. The first part of the trial, which included the initial approximately 285 patients, is projected to be completed in the fourth quarter of calendar year 2019. Subsequently, we will perform an interim analysis on this part of the trial.

We had a call with the FDA in August 2017 regarding ORMD-0801 after the completion of a Phase IIb clinical trial on 180 diabetic patients, which indicated a statistically significant blood glucose lowering effect of ORMD-0801 versus placebo across several endpoints. During the call, the FDA advised that the regulatory pathway for the submission of ORMD-0801 would be a Biologics License Application, or BLA. The BLA pathway would grant us 12 years of marketing exclusivity for ORMD-0801, from the approval date, and an additional six months of exclusivity may be granted to us if the product also receives approval for use in pediatric patients. The FDA confirmed that the approach to nonclinical toxicology, chemistry manufacturing controls and qualification of excipients would be driven by their published guidance documents.

In June 2018, we initiated a glucose clamp study which will quantify insulin absorption in type 1 diabetic patients treated with ORMD-0801. The glucose clamp is a method for quantifying insulin absorption in order to measure a patient’s insulin sensitivity and how well a patient metabolizes glucose. This exploratory, randomized, double-blind glucose clamp study is evaluating exposure-response profiles of type 1 diabetic patients treated with ORMD-0801. Six patients with HbA1c levels of 10% or below, aged 18-50, are enrolled in the study.

20

In June 2018, we also initiated a food effect trial in the United States for ORMD-0801. This single-blind, five period, randomized, placebo-controlled crossover trial is evaluating the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of ORMD-0801 taken at different times in relation to meals in healthy volunteers and patients with type 1 diabetes. 48 patients are enrolled, including 24 healthy volunteers and 24 patients with type 1 diabetes.

In March 2019, we completed a six month dosing toxicology study of our oral insulin formulation, which was initiated in September 2018 following the FDA’s request. We expect to get the results of this study in the first quarter of calendar year 2020.

Should our Phase IIb three-month dose-ranging clinical trial successfully meet its primary or secondary endpoints, we anticipate initiating two six-month Phase III clinical trials on both type 1 and type 2 diabetic patients, following which we expect to file a NDA with potential FDA approval by the second half of calendar year 2023.

Oral GLP-1 Analog

In addition to our flagship product, the ORMD-0801 insulin capsule, we are using our technology for an orally ingestible GLP-1/exenatide capsule, or ORMD-0901. In September 2018, the FDA cleared our IND application for human trials of ORMD-0901. In February 2019, we completed a Phase I pharmacokinetic trial which was initiated in January 2019 to evaluate the safety and the pharmacokinetics of ORMD-0901 compared to placebo. We expect to get the results of this study in the second quarter of calendar year 2019. This study was conducted pursuant to the IND and will be followed by a Phase II trial on type 2 diabetic patients which will be conducted in the United States under an IND.

Other products

In April 2017, Israel’s Ministry of Health approved our commencement of a proof of concept single dose study for our oral leptin drug candidate to evaluate its pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamics (glucagon reduction) in 10 type 1 adult diabetic patients. The study is projected to be initiated in calendar year 2019 and be completed during calendar year 2019.

In October 2018, we initiated an exploratory clinical study of ORMD-0801 in patients with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis, or NASH. The three-month treatment study, which was approved by Israel’s Ministry of Health, will assess the effectiveness of ORMD-0801 in reducing liver fat content, inflammation and fibrosis in 30 patients with NASH. As requested by Israel’s Ministry of Health, the first part of the study will be conducted on 10 participants and is expected to be completed during calendar year 2019.

Out-Licensed Technology

On November 30, 2015, we, our Israeli subsidiary and HTIT entered into a Technology License Agreement, and on December 21, 2015 these parties entered into an Amended and Restated Technology License Agreement that was further amended by the parties on June 3, 2016 and July 24, 2016, or the License Agreement. According to the License Agreement, we granted HTIT an exclusive commercialization license in the territory of the People's Republic of China, Macau and Hong Kong, or the Territory, related to our oral insulin capsule, ORMD-0801, or the Product. Pursuant to the License Agreement, HTIT will conduct, at its own expense, certain pre-commercialization and regulatory activities with respect to our subsidiary’s technology and ORMD-0801 capsule, and will pay (i) royalties of 10% on net sales of the related commercialized products to be sold by HTIT in the Territory, or Royalties, and (ii) an aggregate of $37.5 million, of which $3 million was payable immediately, $8 million was paid subject to our entry into certain agreements with certain third parties, and $26.5 million is payable upon achievement of certain milestones and conditions. In the event that we will not meet certain conditions, the Royalties rate may be reduced to a minimum of 8%. Following the final expiration of our patents covering the technology in the Territory in 2033, the Royalties rate may be reduced, under certain circumstances, to 5%. The royalty payment obligation shall apply during the period of time beginning upon the first commercial sale of the Product in the Territory, and ending upon the later of (i) the expiration of the last-to-expire licensed patents in the Territory; and (ii) 15 years after the first commercial sale of the Product in the Territory, or the Royalty Term. The License Agreement shall remain in effect until the expiration of the Royalty Term. The License Agreement contains customary termination provisions. Through February 28, 2019, we received aggregate milestone payments of $20.5 million.

On November 30, 2015, we also entered into a separate Securities Purchase Agreement with HTIT, or the SPA, pursuant to which, in December 2015, we issued to HTIT 1,155,367 shares of our common stock for total consideration of $12 million. In connection with the License Agreement and the SPA, we received a non-refundable payment of $500,000 as a no-shop fee.

In March 2019, we were formally informed by HTIT that the Center for Drug Evaluation of the China National Medical Products Administration approved HTIT's IND for two doses of ORMD-0801 and the initiation of clinical trials in China for ORMD-0801, which are expected by HTIT to begin in the second quarter of calendar year 2019.

Revenues

Revenues consist of proceeds related to the License Agreement that are recognized on a cumulative basis when it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur, through the expected product submission date of June 2023 using the input method.

Revenues for the six-month period ended February 28, 2019 increased by 10% to $1,340,000, from $1,215,000 for the six-month period ended February 28, 2018. The increase is primarily attributable to the additional milestone payments received under the License Agreement during the six-month period ended February 28, 2019.

Revenues for the three-month period ended February 28, 2019 increased by 10% to $666,000, from $604,000 for the three-month period ended February 28, 2018. The increase is primarily attributable to the additional milestone payments received under the License Agreement during the three-month period ended February 28, 2019.

Cost of revenues

Cost of revenues consists of royalties related to the License Agreement that will be paid over the term of the License Agreement in accordance with revenue recognition accounting and the Law for the Encouragement of Industrial Research, Development and Technological Innovation, 1984, as amended, including any regulations or tracks promulgated thereunder.

Cost of revenues for the six-month period ended February 28, 2019 increased to $90,000 compared to no cost of revenues for the six-month period ended February 28, 2018. The increase is attributable to additional milestone payments received under the License Agreement during the six-month period ended February 28, 2019.

Cost of revenues for the three-month period ended February 28, 2019 increased to $55,000 compared to no cost of revenues for the three-month period ended February 28, 2018. The increase is attributable to additional milestone payments received under the License Agreement during the three-month period ended February 28, 2019.

Research and development expenses

Research and development expenses include costs directly attributable to the conduct of research and development programs, including the cost of salaries, employee benefits, costs of materials, supplies, the cost of services provided by outside contractors, including services related to our clinical trials, clinical trial expenses, the full cost of manufacturing drugs for use in research and preclinical development.  All costs associated with research and development are expensed as incurred.

Clinical trial costs are a significant component of research and development expenses and include costs associated with third-party contractors. We outsource a substantial portion of our clinical trial activities, utilizing external entities such as contract research organizations, or CROs, independent clinical investigators and other third-party service providers to assist us with the execution of our clinical studies.

Clinical activities which relate principally to clinical sites and other administrative functions to manage our clinical trials are performed primarily by CROs. CROs typically perform most of the start-up activities for our trials, including document preparation, site identification, screening and preparation, pre-study visits, training, and program management.

Clinical trial and pre-clinical trial expenses include regulatory and scientific consultants’ compensation and fees, research expenses, purchase of materials, cost of manufacturing of the oral insulin and exenatide capsules, payments for patient recruitment and treatment, as well as salaries and related expenses of research and development staff.

Research and development expenses for the six-month period ended February 28, 2019 increased by 48% to $7,461,000, from $5,051,000 for the six-month period ended February 28, 2018. The increase is primarily due to expenses related to our Phase IIb three-month treatment clinical trial, food effect, clamp and GLP-1 pharmacokinetics clinical trials and is partially offset by a decrease in expenses related to the scale-up process development and production of our oral capsule ingredients and stock-based compensation expenses. Stock-based compensation costs for the six-month period ended February 28, 2019 totaled $93,000, as compared to $296,000 during the six-month period ended February 28, 2018. The decrease is primarily attributable to the progress in amortization and the forfeiture of awards granted in prior periods.

Research and development expenses for the three-month period ended February 28, 2019 increased by 14% to $3,114,000, from $2,724,000 for the three-month period ended February 28, 2018. The increase is primarily due to expenses related to our Phase IIb three-month treatment clinical trial, GLP-1 pharmacokinetics clinical trial and toxicology expenses and is partially offset by a decrease in expenses related to the scale-up process development and production of our oral capsule ingredients. Stock-based compensation costs for the three-month period ended February 28, 2019 totaled $54,000, as compared to $125,000 during the three-month period ended February 28, 2018. The decrease is primarily attributable to the progress in amortization and the forfeiture of awards granted in prior periods.

Government grants

In the six-month periods ended February 28, 2019 and 2018, we did not recognize any research and development grants. As of February 28, 2019, we incurred liabilities to pay royalties to the Israel Innovation Authority of the Israeli Ministry of Economy & Industry of $391,000.

General and administrative expenses

General and administrative expenses include the salaries and related expenses of our management, consulting costs, legal and professional fees, travel expenses, business development costs, insurance expenses and other general costs.

24

General and administrative expenses for the six-month period ended February 28, 2019 decreased by 0.5% to $1,997,000 from $2,007,000 for the six-month period ended February 28, 2018. The decrease in costs related to general and administrative activities during the six-month period ended February 28, 2019 is primarily attributable to a decrease in stock-based compensation costs and is partially offset by an increase in salaries and related expenses. Stock-based compensation costs for the six-month period ended February 28, 2019 totaled $329,000, as compared to $560,000 during the six-month period ended February 28, 2018. The decrease is primarily attributable to the progress in amortization of awards granted to employees and directors during fiscal year 2017 and is partially offset by an increase due to awards granted during fiscal years 2018 and 2019.

General and administrative expenses for the three-month period ended February 28, 2019 increased by 7% to $1,065,000 from $991,000 for the three-month period ended February 28, 2018. The increase in costs related to general and administrative activities during the three-month period ended February 28, 2019 is primarily attributable to an increase in salaries and related expenses and is partially offset by a decrease in stock-based compensation costs. Stock-based compensation costs for the three-month period ended February 28, 2019 totaled $130,000, as compared to $208,000 during the three-month period ended February 28, 2018. The decrease is primarily attributable to the progress in amortization of awards granted to employees and directors during fiscal year 2017 and is partially offset by an increase due to awards granted during fiscal years 2018 and 2019.

Taxes on income

Taxes on income of $300,000 were recognized for the six-month period ended February 28, 2019 as compared to no taxes on income for the six-month period ended February 28, 2018. The increase is due to withholding taxes in connection with the receipt of a milestone payment pursuant to the License Agreement during the more recent period.

Taxes on income of $300,000 were recognized for the three-month period ended February 28, 2019 as compared to no taxes on income for the three-month period ended February 28, 2018. The increase is due to withholding taxes in connection with the receipt of a milestone payment pursuant to the License Agreement during the more recent period.

Financial income, net

Net financial income increased by 28% from net income of $396,000 for the six-month period ended February 28, 2018 to net income of $505,000 for the six-month period ended February 28, 2019. The increase is primarily attributable to an increase in income from bank deposits as a result of an increase in interest rates, partially offset by a decrease in fair value of the ordinary shares of D.N.A Biomedical Solutions Ltd., or D.N.A, and Entera Bio Ltd., or Entera, which was classified in other comprehensive income in fiscal year 2018, prior to the implementation of Accounting Standards Update, or ASU, 2016-01, “Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities," or ASU 2016-01.

Net financial income decreased by 14% from net income of $195,000 for the three-month period ended February 28, 2018 to net income of $167,000 for the three-month period ended February 28, 2019. The decrease is primarily attributable to a decrease in fair value of the ordinary shares of D.N.A and Entera, which were classified in other comprehensive income in fiscal year 2018, prior to the implementation of ASU 2016-01, partially offset by an increase in income from bank deposits and held to maturity bonds as a result of an increase in interest rates.

Other comprehensive income

No unrealized losses on available for sale securities were recognized for the six-month period ended February 28, 2019 as compared to losses of $88,000 for the six-month period ended February 28, 2018. The decrease is due to the implementation of ASU 2016-01, under which changes in fair value of the ordinary shares of D.N.A and Entera that we hold are recognized as financial income or expenses.

No unrealized losses on available for sale securities were recognized for the three-month period ended February 28, 2019 as compared to losses of $414,000 for the three-month period ended February 28, 2018. The decrease is due to the implementation of ASU 2016-01, under which changes in fair value of the ordinary shares of D.N.A and Entera that we hold are recognized as financial income or expenses.

25

Liquidity and capital resources

From inception through February 28, 2019, we have incurred losses in an aggregate amount of $74,751,000. During that period we have financed our operations through several private placements of our common stock, as well as public offerings of our common stock, raising a total of $77,736,000, net of transaction costs. During that period, we also received cash consideration of $5,877,000 from the exercise of warrants and options. We will seek to obtain additional financing through similar sources in the future, as needed. As of February 28, 2019, we had $3,429,000 of available cash, $30,868,000 of short-term and long-term bank deposits and $6,525,000 of marketable securities.

Management continues to evaluate various financing alternatives for funding future research and development activities and general and administrative expenses through fundraising in the public or private equity markets. Although there is no assurance that we will be successful with those initiatives, management believes that it will be able to secure the necessary financing as a result of future third party investments. Based on our current cash resources and commitments, we believe we will be able to maintain our current planned development activities and the corresponding level of expenditures for at least the next 12 months and beyond.

As of February 28, 2019, our total current assets were $29,601,000 and our total current liabilities were $5,104,000. On February 28, 2019, we had a working capital surplus of $24,497,000 and an accumulated loss of $74,751,000. As of August 31, 2018, our total current assets were $31,037,000 and our total current liabilities were $4,553,000. On August 31, 2018, we had a working capital surplus of $26,484,000 and an accumulated loss of $69,223,000. The decrease in working capital surplus from August 31, 2018 to February 28, 2019 was primarily due to the cash used in operating activities.

During the six-month period ended February 28, 2019, cash and cash equivalents decreased to $3,429,000 from the $4,996,000 reported as of August 31, 2018, which is due to the reasons described below.

Operating activities used cash of $6,015,000 in the six-month period ended February 28, 2019, as compared to $6,204,000 used in the six-month period ended February 28, 2018. Cash used in operating activities in the six-month period ended February 28, 2019 primarily consisted of net loss resulting from research and development and general and administrative expenses and is partially offset by changes in contract liabilities primarily due to a milestone payment received during the period in the amount of $3,000,000 under the License Agreement, while cash used in operating activities in the six-month period ended February 28, 2018 primarily consisted of net loss resulting from research and development and general and administrative expenses, as well as changes in contract liabilities due to the License Agreement and is partially offset by changes in stock-based compensation.

Investing activities provided cash of $4,445,000 in the six-month period ended February 28, 2019, as compared to $351,000 used in the six-month period ended February 28, 2018. Cash provided by investing activities in the six-month period ended February 28, 2019 consisted primarily of the maturity of short-term deposits and held to maturity securities and is partially offset by the purchase of short-term and long-term deposits and held to maturity securities, while cash used in investing activities in the six-month period ended February 28, 2018 consisted primarily of the purchase of short-term and long-term bank deposits and held to maturity securities and is partially offset by the maturity of short-term deposits and held to maturity securities.

Financing activities did not provide cash in the six-month period ended February 28, 2019, as compared to $5,878,000 provided in the six-month period ended February 28, 2018. Financing activities in the six-month period ended February 28, 2018 consisted of aggregate net proceeds of $4,881,000 from our issuance of 532,801 shares of common stock under an At The Market Issuance Sales Agreement, dated April 2, 2015, or the Sales Agreement, with B. Riley FBR, Inc., as successor to FBR Capital Markets & Co., or FBR, as amended, and proceeds from the exercise of warrants and options. Pursuant to the Sales Agreement, we may, from time to time and at our option, issue and sell shares of our common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $25,000,000 through FBR as sales agent, subject to certain terms and conditions. Any shares sold will be sold pursuant to our effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 including a prospectus dated February 2, 2017, as supplemented by a prospectus supplement dated April 5, 2017. We will pay FBR a commission of 3.0% of the gross proceeds of the sale of any shares sold through FBR.

Off-balance sheet arrangements

As of February 28, 2019, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements that have had or that we expect would be reasonably likely to have a future material effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1A - RISK FACTORS

An investment in our securities involves a high degree of risk, a number of which risks are described under the caption “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2018, or our Annual Report. You should consider carefully the information about these risks in our Annual Report and below, together with the other information contained in our Annual Report and the information contained under the heading “Forward-Looking Statements” and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q before making an investment decision. Our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected as a result of any of the risks described in our Annual Report or below. The value of our securities could decline as a result of any of these risks. You could lose all or part of your investment in our securities. Some of the statements in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” are forward-looking statements. The following risk factors are not the only risk factors facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also affect our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

Clinical trials of our products conducted by third parties may encounter delays, suspensions or other problems and are outside of our control. 

Third parties who conduct clinical trials of our products may encounter problems that may cause delays, suspensions or other problems at any phase. These problems could include the possibility that they may not be able to conduct clinical trials at their preferred sites, enroll a sufficient number of patients for their clinical trials at one or more sites or begin or successfully complete clinical trials in a timely fashion, if at all.  In addition, these third parties are not controlled by us and may conduct these trials in a manner in which we disagree or which may prove to be unsuccessful.  Furthermore, domestic or foreign regulatory agencies may suspend clinical trials at any time if they believe the subjects participating in the trials are being exposed to unacceptable health risks or if they find deficiencies in the clinical trial process or conduct of the investigation. If such clinical trials conducted by third parties fail, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.  

ITEM 2 - UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

On February 1, 2019, we issued 2,500 shares of our common stock to Corporate Profile, LLC, or Corporate Profile, in payment of a portion of the consulting fee for investor relations services owed to Corporate Profile pursuant to a Letter Agreement, dated April 8, 2018, between us and Corporate Profile.

Significant Accounting Policies

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

a. General:

1) Incorporation and operations

Oramed Pharmaceuticals Inc. (collectively with its subsidiary, the "Company", unless the context indicates otherwise) was incorporated on April 12, 2002, under the laws of the State of Nevada. From incorporation until March 3, 2006, the Company was an exploration stage company engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties. On February 17, 2006, the Company entered into an agreement with Hadasit Medical Services and Development Ltd. to acquire the provisional patent related to an orally ingestible insulin capsule to be used for the treatment of individuals with diabetes.

On May 14, 2007, the Company incorporated a wholly-owned subsidiary in Israel, Oramed Ltd. (the "Subsidiary"), which is engaged in research and development.

On March 11, 2011, the Company was reincorporated from the State of Nevada to the State of Delaware.

On November 30, 2015, the Company entered into a Technology License Agreement with Hefei Tianhui Incubator of Technologies Co. Ltd. ("HTIT") and on December 21, 2015, the parties entered into an Amended and Restated Technology License Agreement that was further amended by the parties on June 3, 2016 and July 24, 2016 (the "License Agreement"). According to the License Agreement, the Company granted HTIT an exclusive commercialization license in the territory of the People's Republic of China, Macau and Hong Kong (the "Territory"), related to the Company's oral insulin capsule, ORMD-0801 (the "Product"). Pursuant to the License Agreement, HTIT will conduct, at its own expense, certain pre-commercialization and regulatory activities with respect to the Subsidiary's technology and ORMD-0801 capsule, and will pay to the Subsidiary (i) royalties of 10% on net sales of the related commercialized products to be sold by HTIT in the Territory ("Royalties"), and (ii) an aggregate of $37,500, of which $3,000 was payable immediately, $8,000 was paid subject to the Company entering into certain agreements with certain third parties, and $26,500 is payable upon achievement of certain milestones and conditions. In the event that the Company does not meet certain conditions, the Royalties rate may be reduced to a minimum of 8%. Following the final expiration of the Company's patents covering the technology in the Territory in 2033, the Royalties rate may be reduced, under certain circumstances, to 5%.

The royalty payment obligation shall apply during the period of time beginning upon the first commercial sale of the Product in the Territory, and ending upon the later of (i) the expiration of the last-to-expire licensed patents in the Territory; and (ii) 15 years after the first commercial sale of the Product in the Territory (the "Royalty Term").

The License Agreement shall remain in effect until the expiration of the Royalty Term. The License Agreement contains customary termination provisions.

Among others, the Company's involvement through the product submission date will include consultancy for the pre-commercialization activities in the Territory, as well as advisory services to HTIT on an ongoing basis.

The initial payment of $3,000 was received in January 2016. Following the achievement of certain milestones, the second and third payments of $6,500 and $4,000, respectively, were received in July 2016, the fourth milestone payment of $4,000 was received in October 2016 and the fifth milestone payment of $3,000 was received in January 2019. Milestone payments received as of February 28, 2019 totaled $20,500.

In addition, on November 30, 2015, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with HTIT (the "SPA"). According to the SPA, the Company issued 1,155,367 shares of common stock to HTIT for $12,000. The transaction closed on December 28, 2015.

In July 2015, according to the letter of intent signed between the parties or their affiliates, HTIT's affiliate paid the Subsidiary a non-refundable amount of $500 as a no-shop fee. The no-shop fee was deferred and the related revenue is recognized over the estimated term of the License Agreement.

For revenue recognition policy see note 1c.

2) Development and liquidity risks

The Company is engaged in research and development in the biotechnology field for innovative pharmaceutical solutions, including an orally ingestible insulin capsule to be used for the treatment of individuals with diabetes, and the use of orally ingestible capsules for delivery of other polypeptides, and has not generated significant revenues from its operations. Based on the Company's current cash resources and commitments, the Company believes it will be able to maintain its current planned development activities and the corresponding level of expenditures for at least the next 12 months and beyond, although no assurance can be given that the Company will not need additional funds prior to such time. If there are unexpected increases in the Company's operating expenses, it may need to seek additional financing during the next 12 months. Successful completion of the Company's development programs and its transition to normal operations is dependent upon obtaining necessary regulatory approvals from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration prior to selling its products within the United States, obtaining foreign regulatory approvals to sell its products internationally, or entering into licensing agreements with third parties. There can be no assurance that the Company will receive regulatory approval of any of its product candidates, and a substantial amount of time may pass before the Company achieves a level of revenues adequate to support its operations, if at all. The Company also expects to incur substantial expenditures in connection with the regulatory approval process for each of its product candidates during their respective developmental periods. Obtaining marketing approval will be directly dependent on the Company's ability to implement the necessary regulatory steps required to obtain marketing approval in the United States and in other countries. The Company cannot predict the outcome of these activities.

b. Loss per common share

Basic and diluted net loss per common share are computed by dividing the net loss for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for each period. Outstanding stock options, warrants and restricted stock units ("RSUs") have been excluded from the calculation of the diluted loss per share because all such securities are anti-dilutive for all periods presented. The weighted average number of common stock options, warrants and RSUs excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss was 4,293,395 and 1,406,175 for the six-month periods ended February 28, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and 4,234,081 and 1,388,122 for the three-month periods ended February 28, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

c. Revenue recognition

The License Agreement and the SPA were considered a single arrangement with multiple deliverables. The Company allocated the total consideration of $49,500 between the License Agreement and the SPA according to their fair value, as follows: $10,617 was allocated to the issuance of common stock (less issuance expenses of $23), based on the quoted price of the Company's shares on the closing date of the SPA on December 28, 2015, and $38,883 was allocated to the License Agreement.

Under Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 605 (which was the authoritative revenue recognition guidance applied for all periods prior to September 1, 2018) given the Company's continuing involvement through the expected product submission in June 2023, amounts received relating to the License Agreement were recognized over the period from which the Company was entitled to the respective payment, and the expected product submission date using a time-based model approach over the periods that the fees were earned.

On September 1, 2018, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2014-09 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)" ("ASC 606"), using the modified retrospective method of adoption. Under this method, the Company applied ASC 606 to the License Agreement at the adoption date and was required to make an adjustment to the September 1, 2018 opening accumulated deficit balance. All prior periods continue to be presented under ASC 605. The most significant impact from adopting ASC 606 was the impact of the timing of recognition of revenue associated with the milestone payment. Under ASC 605, which was the authoritative revenue recognition guidance applied for all periods prior to September 1, 2018, given the Company's continuing involvement through the expected product submission in June 2023, amounts received relating to the License Agreement were recognized over the period from which the Company was entitled to the respective payment and the expected product submission date using a time-based model approach over the periods that the fees were earned. However, under ASC 606, the Company is required to recognize the total transaction price (which includes consideration related to milestones once the criteria for recognition have been satisfied) using the input method over the period the performance obligation is fulfilled. Accordingly, once the consideration associated with a milestone is included in the transaction price, incremental revenue is recognized immediately based on the period of time that has elapsed towards complete satisfaction of the performance obligation. This method results in the recognition of revenue earlier than under ASC 605, and the resulting impact was recorded as a reduction of the opening balance of accumulated deficit at September 1, 2018, as further described below.

Under ASC 606, the Company identified a single performance obligation in the agreement and determined that the license and services are not distinct as the license and services are highly dependent on each other. In other words, HTIT cannot benefit from the license without the related services, and vice versa.

Since the customer benefits from the services as the entity performs, revenue is recognized over time through the expected product submission date in June 2023, using the input method. The Company used the input method to measure the process for the purpose of recognizing revenue, which approximates the straight line attribution. The Company used significant judgment when it determined the product submission date.

Under ASC 606, the consideration that the Company would be entitled to upon the achievement of contractual milestones, which are contingent upon the occurrence of future events, are a form of variable consideration. When assessing the portion, if any, of such milestones-related consideration to be included in the transaction price, the Company first assesses the most likely outcome for each milestone and excludes the consideration related to milestones of which the occurrence is not considered the most likely outcome.

The Company then evaluates if any of the variable consideration determined in the first step is constrained by including in the transaction price variable consideration to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved. The Company used significant judgment when it determined the first step of variable consideration.

The potential future royalty consideration is also considered a form of variable consideration under ASC 606 as it is based on a percentage of potential future sales of the Company's products. However, the Company applies the sales-based royalty exception and accordingly will recognize the sales-based royalty amounts at the earlier of the time (a) when the related sale has occurred and (b) the Company has fulfilled the related performance obligation. To date, the Company has not recognized any royalty-related revenue.

As of the adoption date, the Company adjusted its accumulated deficit by $1,773 against contract liabilities due to the effect of variable consideration.

Amounts that were allocated to the License Agreement as of February 28, 2019 aggregated $22,382, all of which was received through the balance sheet date. Through February 28, 2019, the Company recognized revenue associated with this agreement in the aggregate amount of $8,659 (of which $1,340 was recognized in the six-month period ended February 28, 2019 and $1,773 was recognized as an increase to the September 1, 2018 opening balance of stockholders' equity associated with the impact of the adoption of ASC 606 under the modified retrospective method of adoption), and deferred the remaining amount of $13,723, which is presented as a contract liability on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. During the six-month and three-month periods ended February 28, 2019, the Company recognized revenue in the amount of $1,143 and $568, respectively, that was included in the contract liabilities balance at the beginning of the period.

In accordance with ASC 606, the disclosure of the impact of adoption to the Company's consolidated balance sheet as of August 31, 2018 was as follows:

	As reported August 31, 2018		Updated September 1, 2018		Effect of Change
Contract liabilities (short term)	$	2,449	$	1,230	$	(1,219	)
Contract liabilities (long term)		11,388		10,834		(554	)
Accumulated deficit		69,223		67,450		(1,773	)

The impact of adoption of ASC 606 on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of February 28, 2019 and on the condensed consolidated statement of operations for the six months ended February 28, 2019 was as follows:

	As reported February 28, 2019		Balances without Adoption of ASC 606		Effect of Change
Revenues	$	1,340	$	1,342	$	(2	)
Cost of revenues		90		90		-
Contract liabilities (short term)		2,703		3,110		(407	)
Contract liabilities (long term)		11,020		12,384		(1,364	)
Accumulated deficit		74,751		76,522		(1,771	)

The impact of adoption of ASC 606 on the condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended February 28, 2019 was as follows:

	As reported February 28, 2019		Balances without Adoption of ASC 606		Effect of Change
Revenues	$	666	$	731	$	(65	)
Cost of revenues		55		90		(35	)

d. Financial instruments

In January 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued guidance which updates certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of financial assets and financial liabilities ("ASU 2016-01"). The guidance requires entities to recognize changes in fair value in net income rather than in accumulated other comprehensive income. The Company adopted the provisions of this update in the first quarter of fiscal year 2019. Following the adoption, as of September 1, 2018, the Company classified the available for sale securities (investments in equity securities of D.N.A Biomedical Solutions Ltd. ("D.N.A") and Entera Bio Ltd. ("Entera")) to financial assets measured in fair value through profit or loss. The Company adopted the standard using the modified retrospective method and, accordingly, reclassified the cumulative unrealized gain from accumulated other comprehensive income to a reduction of its accumulated deficit in an amount of $702.

e. Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements Preparation

The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP") and, except as described in note 1f, on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2018 (the "2018 Form 10-K"). These condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments that are of a normal recurring nature and that are considered necessary for a fair statement of the results of the periods presented. Certain information and disclosures normally included in annual consolidated financial statements have been omitted in this interim period report pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Because the condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include all of the information and disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements, they should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes included in the 2018 Form 10-K. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of a full fiscal year's results.

f. Newly issued and recently adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASC 606 which supersedes existing revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. Under the new standard, a good or service is transferred to the customer when (or as) the customer obtains control of the good or service, which differs from the risk and rewards approach under current guidance. The guidance provides a five-step analysis of transactions to determine when and how revenue is recognized. Other major provisions include capitalization of certain contract costs, consideration of the time value of money in the transaction price, and allowing estimates of variable consideration to be recognized before contingencies are resolved in certain circumstances. The guidance also requires enhanced disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from an entity's contracts with customers. The guidance is effective in annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. The Company implemented the guidance for its annual period ending on August 31, 2019 and interim periods within such annual period. The Company adopted the standard using the modified retrospective method. See additional information regarding the adoption in note 1c.

In January 2016, the FASB issued guidance on recognition and measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities (ASU 2016-01) that supersedes most current guidance. Changes to the U.S. GAAP model primarily affect the accounting for equity investments, financial liabilities under the fair value option and the presentation and disclosure requirements for financial instruments. In addition, the FASB clarified guidance related to the valuation allowance assessment when recognizing deferred tax assets resulting from unrealized losses on available-for-sale debt securities. The accounting for other financial instruments, such as loans, investments in debt securities, and financial liabilities, is largely unchanged. The classification and measurement guidance under ASU 2016-01 became effective as of September 1, 2018. See additional information regarding the adoption in note 1d.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, "Leases (Topic 842)" ("ASU 2016-02"), which supersedes the existing guidance for lease accounting, "Leases (Topic 840)". ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to recognize leases on their balance sheets, and leaves lessor accounting largely unchanged. The amendments in ASU 2016-02 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted for all entities. ASU 2016-02 requires a modified retrospective approach for all leases existing at, or entered into after, the date of initial application, with an option to elect to use certain transition relief. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.

COMMITMENTS

NOTE 2 - COMMITMENTS:

a. In March 2011, the Subsidiary sold shares of its investee company, Entera, to D.N.A, retaining 117,000 ordinary shares (after giving effect to a stock split by Entera in July 2018). In consideration for the shares sold to D.N.A, the Company received, among other payments, ordinary shares of D.N.A (see also note 4).

As part of this agreement, the Subsidiary entered into a patent transfer agreement (the "Patent Transfer Agreement") according to which the Subsidiary assigned to Entera all of its right, title and interest in and to a certain patent application related to the oral administration of proteins that it has licensed to Entera since August 2010. Under this agreement, the Subsidiary is entitled to receive from Entera royalties of 3% of Entera's net revenues (as defined in the agreement) and a license back of that patent application for use in respect of diabetes and influenza. On December 11, 2018, Entera announced that it had entered into a research collaboration and license agreement (the "Amgen License") with Amgen related to research of inflammatory disease and other serious illnesses. As reported by Entera, under the terms of the Amgen License, Entera will receive a modest initial technology access fee from Amgen and will be responsible for preclinical development at Amgen's expense. Entera will be eligible to receive up to $270,000 in aggregate payments, as well as tiered royalties up to mid-single digits, upon achievement of various clinical and commercial milestones if Amgen decides to move all of these programs forward. Amgen is responsible for clinical development, manufacturing and commercialization of any of the resulting programs. To the extent the Amgen License results in net revenues as defined in the Patent Transfer Agreement, the Subsidiary will be entitled to the aforementioned royalties.

In addition, as part of a consulting agreement with a third party, dated February 15, 2011, the Subsidiary is obliged to pay this third party royalties of 8% of the net royalties received in respect of the patent that was sold to Entera in March 2011.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

FAIR VALUE

NOTE 3 - FAIR VALUE:

The Company measures fair value and discloses fair value measurements for financial assets. Fair value is based on the price that would be received to sell an asset 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 other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.

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.

As of February 28, 2019, the assets measured at fair value are comprised of equity securities (Level 1). The fair value of held to maturity bonds as presented in note 4 was based on a Level 1 measurement.

As of February 28, 2019, the carrying amounts of cash equivalents, short-term deposits and accounts payable approximate their fair values due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.

As of February 28, 2019, the carrying amounts of long-term deposits approximate their fair values due to the stated interest rates which approximate market rates.

The amounts funded in respect of employee rights are stated at cash surrender value which approximates its fair value.

There were no Level 3 items for the six-month periods ended February 28, 2019 and 2018.

Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)

6 Months Ended

Feb. 28, 2019

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

General

a. General:

1) Incorporation and operations

Oramed Pharmaceuticals Inc. (collectively with its subsidiary, the "Company", unless the context indicates otherwise) was incorporated on April 12, 2002, under the laws of the State of Nevada. From incorporation until March 3, 2006, the Company was an exploration stage company engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties. On February 17, 2006, the Company entered into an agreement with Hadasit Medical Services and Development Ltd. to acquire the provisional patent related to an orally ingestible insulin capsule to be used for the treatment of individuals with diabetes.

On May 14, 2007, the Company incorporated a wholly-owned subsidiary in Israel, Oramed Ltd. (the "Subsidiary"), which is engaged in research and development.

On March 11, 2011, the Company was reincorporated from the State of Nevada to the State of Delaware.

On November 30, 2015, the Company entered into a Technology License Agreement with Hefei Tianhui Incubator of Technologies Co. Ltd. ("HTIT") and on December 21, 2015, the parties entered into an Amended and Restated Technology License Agreement that was further amended by the parties on June 3, 2016 and July 24, 2016 (the "License Agreement"). According to the License Agreement, the Company granted HTIT an exclusive commercialization license in the territory of the People's Republic of China, Macau and Hong Kong (the "Territory"), related to the Company's oral insulin capsule, ORMD-0801 (the "Product"). Pursuant to the License Agreement, HTIT will conduct, at its own expense, certain pre-commercialization and regulatory activities with respect to the Subsidiary's technology and ORMD-0801 capsule, and will pay to the Subsidiary (i) royalties of 10% on net sales of the related commercialized products to be sold by HTIT in the Territory ("Royalties"), and (ii) an aggregate of $37,500, of which $3,000 was payable immediately, $8,000 was paid subject to the Company entering into certain agreements with certain third parties, and $26,500 is payable upon achievement of certain milestones and conditions. In the event that the Company does not meet certain conditions, the Royalties rate may be reduced to a minimum of 8%. Following the final expiration of the Company's patents covering the technology in the Territory in 2033, the Royalties rate may be reduced, under certain circumstances, to 5%.

The royalty payment obligation shall apply during the period of time beginning upon the first commercial sale of the Product in the Territory, and ending upon the later of (i) the expiration of the last-to-expire licensed patents in the Territory; and (ii) 15 years after the first commercial sale of the Product in the Territory (the "Royalty Term").

The License Agreement shall remain in effect until the expiration of the Royalty Term. The License Agreement contains customary termination provisions.

Among others, the Company's involvement through the product submission date will include consultancy for the pre-commercialization activities in the Territory, as well as advisory services to HTIT on an ongoing basis.

The initial payment of $3,000 was received in January 2016. Following the achievement of certain milestones, the second and third payments of $6,500 and $4,000, respectively, were received in July 2016, the fourth milestone payment of $4,000 was received in October 2016 and the fifth milestone payment of $3,000 was received in January 2019. Milestone payments received as of February 28, 2019 totaled $20,500.

In addition, on November 30, 2015, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with HTIT (the "SPA"). According to the SPA, the Company issued 1,155,367 shares of common stock to HTIT for $12,000. The transaction closed on December 28, 2015.

In July 2015, according to the letter of intent signed between the parties or their affiliates, HTIT's affiliate paid the Subsidiary a non-refundable amount of $500 as a no-shop fee. The no-shop fee was deferred and the related revenue is recognized over the estimated term of the License Agreement.

For revenue recognition policy see note 1c.

2) Development and liquidity risks

The Company is engaged in research and development in the biotechnology field for innovative pharmaceutical solutions, including an orally ingestible insulin capsule to be used for the treatment of individuals with diabetes, and the use of orally ingestible capsules for delivery of other polypeptides, and has not generated significant revenues from its operations. Based on the Company's current cash resources and commitments, the Company believes it will be able to maintain its current planned development activities and the corresponding level of expenditures for at least the next 12 months and beyond, although no assurance can be given that the Company will not need additional funds prior to such time. If there are unexpected increases in the Company's operating expenses, it may need to seek additional financing during the next 12 months. Successful completion of the Company's development programs and its transition to normal operations is dependent upon obtaining necessary regulatory approvals from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration prior to selling its products within the United States, obtaining foreign regulatory approvals to sell its products internationally, or entering into licensing agreements with third parties. There can be no assurance that the Company will receive regulatory approval of any of its product candidates, and a substantial amount of time may pass before the Company achieves a level of revenues adequate to support its operations, if at all. The Company also expects to incur substantial expenditures in connection with the regulatory approval process for each of its product candidates during their respective developmental periods. Obtaining marketing approval will be directly dependent on the Company's ability to implement the necessary regulatory steps required to obtain marketing approval in the United States and in other countries. The Company cannot predict the outcome of these activities.

Loss per common share

b. Loss per common share

Basic and diluted net loss per common share are computed by dividing the net loss for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for each period. Outstanding stock options, warrants and restricted stock units ("RSUs") have been excluded from the calculation of the diluted loss per share because all such securities are anti-dilutive for all periods presented. The weighted average number of common stock options, warrants and RSUs excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss was 4,293,395 and 1,406,175 for the six-month periods ended February 28, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and 4,234,081 and 1,388,122 for the three-month periods ended February 28, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Revenue recognition

c. Revenue recognition

The License Agreement and the SPA were considered a single arrangement with multiple deliverables. The Company allocated the total consideration of $49,500 between the License Agreement and the SPA according to their fair value, as follows: $10,617 was allocated to the issuance of common stock (less issuance expenses of $23), based on the quoted price of the Company's shares on the closing date of the SPA on December 28, 2015, and $38,883 was allocated to the License Agreement.

Under Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 605 (which was the authoritative revenue recognition guidance applied for all periods prior to September 1, 2018) given the Company's continuing involvement through the expected product submission in June 2023, amounts received relating to the License Agreement were recognized over the period from which the Company was entitled to the respective payment, and the expected product submission date using a time-based model approach over the periods that the fees were earned.

On September 1, 2018, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2014-09 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)" ("ASC 606"), using the modified retrospective method of adoption. Under this method, the Company applied ASC 606 to the License Agreement at the adoption date and was required to make an adjustment to the September 1, 2018 opening accumulated deficit balance. All prior periods continue to be presented under ASC 605. The most significant impact from adopting ASC 606 was the impact of the timing of recognition of revenue associated with the milestone payment. Under ASC 605, which was the authoritative revenue recognition guidance applied for all periods prior to September 1, 2018, given the Company's continuing involvement through the expected product submission in June 2023, amounts received relating to the License Agreement were recognized over the period from which the Company was entitled to the respective payment and the expected product submission date using a time-based model approach over the periods that the fees were earned. However, under ASC 606, the Company is required to recognize the total transaction price (which includes consideration related to milestones once the criteria for recognition have been satisfied) using the input method over the period the performance obligation is fulfilled. Accordingly, once the consideration associated with a milestone is included in the transaction price, incremental revenue is recognized immediately based on the period of time that has elapsed towards complete satisfaction of the performance obligation. This method results in the recognition of revenue earlier than under ASC 605, and the resulting impact was recorded as a reduction of the opening balance of accumulated deficit at September 1, 2018, as further described below.

Under ASC 606, the Company identified a single performance obligation in the agreement and determined that the license and services are not distinct as the license and services are highly dependent on each other. In other words, HTIT cannot benefit from the license without the related services, and vice versa.

Since the customer benefits from the services as the entity performs, revenue is recognized over time through the expected product submission date in June 2023, using the input method. The Company used the input method to measure the process for the purpose of recognizing revenue, which approximates the straight line attribution. The Company used significant judgment when it determined the product submission date.

Under ASC 606, the consideration that the Company would be entitled to upon the achievement of contractual milestones, which are contingent upon the occurrence of future events, are a form of variable consideration. When assessing the portion, if any, of such milestones-related consideration to be included in the transaction price, the Company first assesses the most likely outcome for each milestone and excludes the consideration related to milestones of which the occurrence is not considered the most likely outcome.

The Company then evaluates if any of the variable consideration determined in the first step is constrained by including in the transaction price variable consideration to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved. The Company used significant judgment when it determined the first step of variable consideration.

The potential future royalty consideration is also considered a form of variable consideration under ASC 606 as it is based on a percentage of potential future sales of the Company's products. However, the Company applies the sales-based royalty exception and accordingly will recognize the sales-based royalty amounts at the earlier of the time (a) when the related sale has occurred and (b) the Company has fulfilled the related performance obligation. To date, the Company has not recognized any royalty-related revenue.

As of the adoption date, the Company adjusted its accumulated deficit by $1,773 against contract liabilities due to the effect of variable consideration.

Amounts that were allocated to the License Agreement as of February 28, 2019 aggregated $22,382, all of which was received through the balance sheet date. Through February 28, 2019, the Company recognized revenue associated with this agreement in the aggregate amount of $8,659 (of which $1,340 was recognized in the six-month period ended February 28, 2019 and $1,773 was recognized as an increase to the September 1, 2018 opening balance of stockholders' equity associated with the impact of the adoption of ASC 606 under the modified retrospective method of adoption), and deferred the remaining amount of $13,723, which is presented as a contract liability on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. During the six-month and three-month periods ended February 28, 2019, the Company recognized revenue in the amount of $1,143 and $568, respectively, that was included in the contract liabilities balance at the beginning of the period.

In accordance with ASC 606, the disclosure of the impact of adoption to the Company's consolidated balance sheet as of August 31, 2018 was as follows:

Financial instruments

d. Financial instruments

In January 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued guidance which updates certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of financial assets and financial liabilities ("ASU 2016-01"). The guidance requires entities to recognize changes in fair value in net income rather than in accumulated other comprehensive income. The Company adopted the provisions of this update in the first quarter of fiscal year 2019. Following the adoption, as of September 1, 2018, the Company classified the available for sale securities (investments in equity securities of D.N.A Biomedical Solutions Ltd. ("D.N.A") and Entera Bio Ltd. ("Entera")) to financial assets measured in fair value through profit or loss. The Company adopted the standard using the modified retrospective method and, accordingly, reclassified the cumulative unrealized gain from accumulated other comprehensive income to a reduction of its accumulated deficit in an amount of $702.

Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements Preparation

e. Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements Preparation

The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP") and, except as described in note 1f, on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2018 (the "2018 Form 10-K"). These condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments that are of a normal recurring nature and that are considered necessary for a fair statement of the results of the periods presented. Certain information and disclosures normally included in annual consolidated financial statements have been omitted in this interim period report pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Because the condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include all of the information and disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements, they should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes included in the 2018 Form 10-K. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of a full fiscal year's results.

Newly issued and recently adopted Accounting Pronouncements

f. Newly issued and recently adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASC 606 which supersedes existing revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. Under the new standard, a good or service is transferred to the customer when (or as) the customer obtains control of the good or service, which differs from the risk and rewards approach under current guidance. The guidance provides a five-step analysis of transactions to determine when and how revenue is recognized. Other major provisions include capitalization of certain contract costs, consideration of the time value of money in the transaction price, and allowing estimates of variable consideration to be recognized before contingencies are resolved in certain circumstances. The guidance also requires enhanced disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from an entity's contracts with customers. The guidance is effective in annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. The Company implemented the guidance for its annual period ending on August 31, 2019 and interim periods within such annual period. The Company adopted the standard using the modified retrospective method. See additional information regarding the adoption in note 1c.

In January 2016, the FASB issued guidance on recognition and measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities (ASU 2016-01) that supersedes most current guidance. Changes to the U.S. GAAP model primarily affect the accounting for equity investments, financial liabilities under the fair value option and the presentation and disclosure requirements for financial instruments. In addition, the FASB clarified guidance related to the valuation allowance assessment when recognizing deferred tax assets resulting from unrealized losses on available-for-sale debt securities. The accounting for other financial instruments, such as loans, investments in debt securities, and financial liabilities, is largely unchanged. The classification and measurement guidance under ASU 2016-01 became effective as of September 1, 2018. See additional information regarding the adoption in note 1d.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, "Leases (Topic 842)" ("ASU 2016-02"), which supersedes the existing guidance for lease accounting, "Leases (Topic 840)". ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to recognize leases on their balance sheets, and leaves lessor accounting largely unchanged. The amendments in ASU 2016-02 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted for all entities. ASU 2016-02 requires a modified retrospective approach for all leases existing at, or entered into after, the date of initial application, with an option to elect to use certain transition relief. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.
