Initial Public Offering (“IPO”)

On July 02, 2018 the Company completed the IPO and offered 1,400,000 ordinary shares and 1,400,000 warrants (the “IPO warrants”) to purchase up to 700,000 ordinary shares for a gross consideration of $11.2 million before issuance costs ($9.6 million net of issuance costs in cash which included $0.9 million underwriters’ fees and an additional approximately $0.7 million of other issuance costs). The ordinary shares and the IPO warrants sold in units (each a “unit”), with each unit consisting of one ordinary share and one tradable warrant to purchase 0.5 of an ordinary shares. The public offering price was $8.0 per unit.

The ordinary shares and warrants were immediately separable and started to trade separately upon completion of the Company’s IPO in July 2018.
In Connection with the IPO certain actions were completed, including:


1)
A 1-for- 130 split of the Company's ordinary shares. Following the split, the Company retrospectively reflected the change in the share capital of the Company for all periods presented. Unless otherwise indicated, all of the ordinary share numbers, losses per ordinary share, share prices, options and warrants in these financial statements have been adjusted, on a retroactive basis, to reflect this 1-for- 130 split.
 

2)
The Company’s outstanding 2012 Convertible loans were automatically converted into 622,180 Ordinary Shares of the Company.


3)
The Company's series A preferred shares, series B preferred shares and series B-1 preferred shares were automatically converted into 1,328,860, 1,856,790 and 1,719,770, Ordinary Shares of the Company, respectively.


4)
The Company's warrants to purchase series A preferred shares, warrants to purchase Series B preferred shares and warrants to purchase Series B-1 preferred shares were automatically converted into 332,020, 756,340 and 467,220 warrants, respectively, to purchase ordinary shares of the Company.


5)
Existing options to purchase Series A preferred shares and warrants to purchase Series A preferred shares, granted to certain holders of our Series A preferred shares that were exercisable upon the closing of the IPO, were automatically converted into options to purchase 387,530 Ordinary Shares of the Company and into warrants to purchase 96,980 Ordinary Shares of the Company.
 
On July 26, 2018, the Company's underwriters exercised their overallotment option to purchase 210,000 warrants to purchase 105,000 Ordinary Shares of the Company for a total consideration of $2,100. The fair value of the warrants on the issuance date was $172,000. The Company recorded the fair value as issuance costs.

The Company also issued to the underwriters 10,000 ordinary shares following the closing of the IPO, as well as 70,000 underwriter warrants at an exercise price of $8.80 to purchase 70,000 ordinary shares. The underwriter warrants may be exercised on a cashless basis under certain circumstances as described in the warrant agreement. The underwriter warrants will be exercisable 180 days following June 29, 2018 until the fifth anniversary of such effective date. The underwriter warrants are not redeemable by the company and have some registration rights as described in the warrant. The underwriter warrants will provide for adjustment of the exercise price of such warrants (and the ordinary shares underlying such warrants) for dilutive events such as a stock dividend or stock split and for recapitalizations, mergers and other fundamental transactions.

The shares and warrants issued to the underwriters were recorded as an issuance cost based on fair value of $66,500 and $255,000 respectively.

The Company allocated the total consideration from the issuance of the units between the ordinary shares and the tradable warrants as follows: the IPO warrants were recorded at fair value based on the quoted price on Nasdaq as of July 2,2018 and the residual amount was allocated to the ordinary shares.

Issuance costs were allocated to the ordinary shares and the IPO warrants according to their fair values. Issuance costs which were allocated to the ordinary shares were deducted from shareholders' equity, and issuance costs that were allocated to the IPO warrants were expensed immediately.

IPO warrants

As described above, the Company issued 1,400,000 IPO warrants to purchase 700,000 ordinary shares of the Company. The IPO warrants are exercisable immediately at an initial exercise price of $8.4 per ordinary share for a period of five years, unless earlier repurchased by the Company under "Fundamental Transactions” as described in the warrant agreement or early expired as described below and in the warrant agreement.

The exercise of the warrants is in cash, unless the warrant holder is utilizing the “cashless” exercise provision of the warrants, prior to the termination date under certain circumstances as described in the warrant agreement. On the termination date, any warrants not previously exercised, repurchased by the Company or subject to early expiration will terminate and expire worthless.

The exercise price and number of shares issuable upon exercise of each warrant are subject to standard adjustments. The exercise price is subject to reduction if, within two years of the date of original issuance of the warrants, the Company sells or grants any warrant or option (except in certain circumstances as described in the warrant) at an effective price per share less than $8.0 per share (as adjusted in proportion with any adjustments made from time to time), which reduction will be based on a weighted average, as described in the warrant.

The Company may accelerate the expiration date of the warrants upon written notice to the holders at any time if the last reported sale price (as defined in the warrants) exceeds $24.00 per share, which is 300% of the IPO price per unit (subject to adjustments) for a 10 consecutive trading day period. As described in note c, the Company completed financing round in a price per share lower than the $8.0, therefore, the adjusted exercise price is $5.85.

For accounting purposes, the IPO warrants issued to the public were classified as a financial liability since their exercise price and number of shares issuable upon exercise of each warrant are subject to certain adjustments as described in the warrant agreement and also due to the cashless exercise option. The fair value of the IPO warrants as of the IPO closing date and as of December 31, 2020 was based on quoted price on Nasdaq (Level 1 valuation) as of the respective date.


c.
In July 2019, one of the Company’ shareholders' exercised his option to acquire 32,500 ordinary shares and additional 8,190 warrants for a total consideration of $100,000 (upon achievement of the second milestone) in accordance with the preferred share A purchase agreement signed in 2014 and its amendments.


d.
On July 20, 2019, the 443,950 warrants and certain additional options to purchase 443,950 ordinary shares for a purchase price of $3.69 per share (upon achievement of the second milestone) in accordance with the abovementioned preferred share A purchase agreement and its amendments expired. Following the expiration, the Company classified $1.4 million from Other Reserves to Additional paid in Capital.


e.

In addition, the Company granted 2,855,095 warrants, exercisable over a three-years period from the date of issuance, to purchase 2,855,095 ordinary shares at a per share exercise price of $2.96.

In addition, on December 13, 2019, D.N.A Biomedical Solutions Ltd. (“DNA”), an existing shareholder of the Company, subscribed to the Private Placement (the “DNA Private Placement”) to purchase 337,553 ordinary shares for aggregate consideration of $800,000. In connection with the transaction, the Company granted DNA warrants, exercisable over a three-year period from the date of issuance, to purchase 168,776 ordinary shares at a per share exercise price of $2.96.  This investment was approved by the shareholders of the Company on February 18, 2020.

The 168,776 warrants issued in connection with the DNA Private Placement together with the 2,855,095 warrants issued in connection with the Private Placement are the “Investors Warrants”

In connection therewith, the Company entered into Placement Agency agreement with GP Numenkari Inc., a broker-dealer (“the Broker”). Based on the agreement, the Broker was entitled to the following consideration:


1.
A cash fees equal to 10% of the total proceeds paid by subscribers invested through the Broker.


2.

Following the first and second closing of the offering, the Company issued 184,515 Broker Warrants type 1 and 92,257 Broker Warrants type 2.

Prior to the exercise of the Investor Warrants and the Broker Warrants and for one year from the date of the first closing, the number of ordinary shares issuable upon their exercise and the exercise price are subject to customary adjustments, including in the events of reorganizations or reclassifications of the Company’s capital stock, upon payment of dividends or distributions to the Company’s shareholders, and upon subsequent issuance of the Company’s share capital at or below a price of $2.37. In addition, these warrants agreements have cashless exercise option. Therefore, for accounting purposes, the Investors Warrants issued were classified as a financial liability. As described in note 10i, the Company issued Ordinary Shares through the Company’s ATM Program at an average price per share lower than $2.37, and the adjusted exercise price was reset to $1.05.
The Company had transaction costs of approximately $1.2 million, out of which $205 thousand are stock-based compensation expenses due to issuance of Broker Warrants type 1 and Broker Warrants type 2.

The Company allocated the total consideration from the issuance of the units between the ordinary shares and the warrants as following: the Investors Warrants were recorded at fair value based on its fair value as of the issuance date and the residual amount was allocated to the ordinary shares.

Issuance costs were allocated to the ordinary shares and the tradable warrants according to their fair values. Issuance costs which were allocated to the ordinary shares were deducted from shareholders' equity, and issuance costs that were allocated to the Investors warrants were expensed immediately.

As part of the subscription agreements, the Company also entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (together with the Warrants and the Subscription Agreement), pursuant to which within seven months of the final closing, the Company shall file a registration statement on Form F-3 with the SEC for the resale of the Shares issued in the first and second closing (including those issued upon exercise of the Warrants). Under the agreement, the Company is required to pay the purchasers liquidated damages in the event that the Company does not meet the foregoing requirement in an amount equal to 1% per month of the aggregate purchase price paid in cash by such purchasers for their investment in the Company. In June 2020, the Company filed the selling registration statement on Form F-3 with the SEC.


g.
