Dear Sir and Madam:

 

The purpose of this letter is to respond to your letter of June 7, 2022, regarding the abovementioned Registration Statement on Form F-1 (“Form F-1”) of Jeffs’ Brands Ltd (the “Company”, ‘we’, “us” or “our”). For your convenience, your original comments appear in bold text, followed by our response. Capitalized terms used, but not defined, in this letter have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Form F-1. We are concurrently filing Amendment No. 3 to the Form F-1 (“Amendment No. 3”).

 

Amendment No. 2 to Registration Statement on Form F-1

 

Capitalization, page 48

 

1.We read your response to comment 6.  Please revise to disclose the amount of the revalued related-party loan agreements, the difference between the fair value of the modified terms and the carrying value of the original loans and the value of the equity conversion feature.  Please disclose how you determined the amounts and the significant estimates and assumptions used to determine the values.  Please disclose, if true, that based on the terms of the equity conversion feature, you are assuming the related-party loan agreements will be converted into Ordinary Shares at a conversion rate of $1.87 per share.  Given the IPO price is substantially higher, please tell us in detail how you considered this in valuing the equity conversion feature.  Also, please disclose in greater detail the nature and amounts of each adjustment you made to each line item to arrive at the amounts in the Pro Forma column.

 

Response:  In response to the Staff’s comment, we have revised our disclosure on pages 48 and 49 of Amendment No. 3, to disclose the amount of the revalued related-party loan agreements, the difference between the fair value of the modified terms and the carrying value of the original loans and the value of the equity conversion feature and to describe the amounts and the significant estimates and assumptions used to determine the values.

 

We have further revised our disclosure on page 49 of Amendment No. 3 to disclose that the related party loans will be converted into Ordinary Shares at a conversion rate of $3.46 per share, following adjustment to give effect to the reverse share split effected on June 16, 2022. In addition, we have added footnotes in the Capitalization table on pages 48 and 49 of Amendment No. 3, to disclose in greater detail the nature and amounts of each adjustment made by us to each line item to arrive at the amounts in the Pro Forma column.

 

 

 

 

2.You disclose changes in other liabilities in the Pro Forma column related to accrued interest and derivative liabilities.  Please disclose the nature and amount of the other adjustments made to the other liabilities balance.

3.The balances for total shareholders' equity and total capitalization in the Pro Forma As Adjusted column were not properly totaled.  Please clarify or revise.
