Before deciding to invest in our ordinary shares, you should read this entire prospectus carefully, including the sections of this prospectus entitled “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and our consolidated financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this prospectus. Unless the context otherwise requires, references in this prospectus to the “company,” “Beamr,” “we,” “us,” “our” and other similar designations refer to Beamr Imaging Ltd.

Company Overview

We are an innovator of video encoding, transcoding and optimization solutions that enable high quality, performance, and unmatched bitrate efficiency for video and images. With our Emmy®-winning patented technology and award-winning services, we help our customers realize the potential of video encoding and media optimization to address business-critical challenges. Our customers include tier one over-the-top, or OTT, content distributors, video streaming platforms, and Hollywood studios who rely on our suite of products and expertise to reduce the cost and complexity associated with storing, distributing and monetizing video and images across devices.

At the heart of our patented optimization technology is the proprietary Beamr Quality Measure, or BQM, that is highly correlated with the human visual system. BQM is integrated into our Content Adaptive Bitrate, or CABR, system, which maximizes quality and remove visual redundancies resulting in a smaller file size. The BQM has excellent correlation with subjective results, confirmed in testing under ITU BT.500, an international standard for rigorous testing of image quality. The perceptual quality preservation of CABR has been repeatedly verified using large scale crowd-sourcing based testing sessions, as well as by industry leaders and studio “golden eyes”.

We currently license three core video and image compression products that help our customers use video and images to further their businesses in meaningful ways: (1) a suite of video compression software encoder solutions including the Beamr 4 encoder, Beamr 4X content adaptive encoder, Beamr 5 encoder and the Beamr 5X content adaptive encoder, (2) Beamr JPEGmini photo optimization software solutions for reducing JPEG file sizes, and (3) Beamr Silicon IP block, a hardware solution for integration into dedicated video encoding ASICs, GPUs, and application processors.

According to Fortune Business Insights, the global cloud video storage market is projected to grow from $7.3 billion in 2021 to $13.5 billion in 2025 and to $20.9 billion by 2028, at a compound annual growth rate, or CAGR, of 16% during the forecast period. The fact that video data is often required to be stored and accessed for long periods brings about the problem of lifetime costs associated with the efficient storing and managing of data. While the upfront cost might appear manageable over a period, the rise in data volumes results in the need to pay more in the future to keep the data in the cloud. In today’s environment, with deployment of media and entertainment, user generated content, enterprise video, agricultural technology, or AgTech, and industrial solutions, autonomous vehicles, surveillance and smart cities, the usage of video and its storage on public cloud platforms is expected to increase exponentially. For example, according to Grand View Research, the global enterprise video market size is expected to reach $33.72 billion by 2027, a CAGR of 11.6% from 2020 to 2027 and according to Valuates Reports, the global video surveillance storage market is expected to grow to $33.65 billion by 2026 from $12.21 billion in 2020 at a CAGR of 18.4% (with currently over one billion surveillance camera installed worldwide, according to IHS Markit). As such, we believe that there is an unmet need for video storage optimization solutions that significantly reduce the costs of long term storage.

Our current product line is mainly geared to the high end, high quality media customers and we count among our enterprise customers Netflix, Snapfish, ViacomCBS, Wowza, Microsoft, VMware, Genesys, Deluxe, Vimeo, Encoding.com, Citrix, Walmart, Photobox, Antix, Dalet, and other leading media companies using video and photo solutions. We currently derive a significant portion of our revenue from a limited number of our customers. For the years ended December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, our top ten customers (which in 2021 included Netflix, Snapfish, ViacomCBS and Wowza) in the aggregate accounted for approximately 62% of our revenues. In the six months ended June 30, 2022, our top ten customers in the aggregate accounted for approximately 58% of our revenues. Due to the high cost and complexity of deploying our existing software solutions and the long sales lead times, we have made a strategic decision to focus our resources on the development and commercialization of our next-generation product, the Beamr HW-Accelerated Content Adaptive Encoding solution, a software-as-a-service, or SaaS, solution deployed in the cloud that is designed, based on our own internal testing, to be up to 10x more cost efficient than our existing software-based solutions, resulting in reduced media storage, processing and delivery costs.

Recent Developments

Our BQM quality measure software will execute directly on NVIDIA GPU cores and interact with the NVIDIA video accelerator encoder known as NVENC. NVIDIA NVENC is a high-quality, high-performance hardware video encoder that is built into most NVIDIA GPUs. NVENC offloads video encoding to hardware, and provides extreme performance for applications such as live video encoding, cloud gaming and cloud storage. NVIDIA GPUs with NVENC are available on all major cloud platforms.

We initiated the collaboration with NVIDIA on developing the Beamr HW-Accelerated Content Adaptive Encoding solution in January 2021. Our collaboration with NVIDIA is based on a mutual development program that is in advanced stages and that has been approved at senior levels at NVIDIA. While our collaboration has not been reduced to a written agreement, we believe that NVIDIA has a commercial incentive to complete the development and deploy the software update that enables the CABR powered NVENC because of the superior video compression rates of the NVENC when combined with our CABR solution. Since commencing the collaboration, we have successfully completed the following steps: (i) demonstrated proof of concept; (ii) jointly defined the required frame-level APIs that enable our CABR system to determine the optimal tradeoff between bitrate and quality; (iii) NVIDIA has approved the plan of record; (iv) NVIDIA completed delivery of the first version of the APIs; (v) we verified implementation of the APIs that result in significant reduction of the bitrate of video streams; and (vi) in December 2022, we received a pre-final implementation from NVIDIA showing major progress, an indication that the work is close to completion.

With the completion of the foregoing steps, we expect the first version of the integrated video optimization engine to be ready by the end of the first quarter of 2023. Following this and assuming the timely completion of our initial public offering in the first quarter of 2023, we plan to build out the cloud-based SaaS platform and test it with beta customers in the third quarter of 2023. Following that, we plan to commercially launch the first release of our cloud based Beamr HW-Accelerated Content Adaptive Encoding solution in the first quarter of 2024 and expect that following release, end-users of the solution will enjoy significant end-user storage cost savings. Using the Beamr HW-Accelerated Content Adaptive Encoding solution will potentially reduce their return on investment for storage optimization to approximately four months, compared to approximately two years with our existing software encoder solutions.

Below is a summary of certain preliminary estimates regarding our cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2022. This preliminary financial information is based upon our estimates and is subject to completion of our financial closing procedures. Moreover, this preliminary financial information has been prepared solely on the basis of information that is currently available to, and that is the responsibility of, management. Our independent registered public accounting firm has not audited or reviewed, and does not express an opinion with respect to this information. This preliminary financial information is not a comprehensive statement of our cash and cash equivalents for the as of December 31, 2022 and remains subject to, among other things, the completion of our financial closing procedures, final adjustments, and completion of our internal review for the year ending December 31, 2022, which may materially impact the results and expectations set forth below.

Our estimated unaudited cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2022 were approximately $0.7 million.

Our Business Strengths

We believe that the following business strengths differentiate us from our competitors and are key to our success:

●

We are a recognized video compression market leader. In January 2021 we were recognized with an Emmy® Award for the “Development of Open Perceptual Metrics for Video Encoding Optimization” and in November 2021 we won the Seagate Lyve Innovator of the Year competition. We have over 50 patents, and count among our customers leading content distributors including Netflix, ViacomCBS and Wowza Media Systems.

●

Strong value proposition. We believe our existing video compression encoding solutions are among the fastest software video encoders on the market and provide a lower total cost-of-ownership to our customers by reducing media storage, processing and delivery costs. Upon release of our next generation SaaS solution, the Beamr HW-Accelerated Content Adaptive Encoding, we believe that CABR performance will, based on our own internal testing, be up to 10x more cost efficient than our existing software-based solutions, resulting in even greater reduced media storage, processing and delivery costs.

●

Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company and a Foreign Private Issuer

Emerging Growth Company

As a company with less than $1.235 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, or the JOBS Act. An emerging growth company may take advantage of specified reduced reporting and other burdens that are otherwise applicable generally to public companies. In particular, as an emerging growth company, we:

●

may present only two years of audited financial statements and only two years of related Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations disclosure in our initial registration statement;

●

are not required to provide a detailed narrative disclosure discussing our compensation principles, objectives and elements and analyzing how those elements fit with our principles and objectives, which is commonly referred to as “compensation discussion and analysis;

●

are not required to obtain a non-binding advisory vote from our shareholders on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements (commonly referred to as the “say-on-pay,” “say-on frequency” and “say-on-golden-parachute” votes);

●

will not be required to conduct an evaluation of our internal control over financial reporting;

●

are exempt from certain executive compensation disclosure provisions requiring a pay-for-performance graph and chief executive officer pay ratio disclosure; and

●

are exempt from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

We may take advantage of these provisions for up to five years or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company upon the earlier to occur of: (1) the last day of the fiscal year in which we have total annual gross revenues of $1.235 billion or more; (2) the date on which we have issued more than $1.0 billion in nonconvertible debt during the previous three years; or (3) the date on which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer under the rules of the SEC. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these reduced burdens, and therefore the information that we provide holders of our ordinary shares may be different than the information you might receive from other public companies in which you hold equity. In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of an extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards applicable to public companies. We have elected to opt out of taking advantage of the extended transition period to comply with new or revised accounting standards.

Foreign Private Issuer

Upon consummation of this offering, we will report under the Exchange Act, as amended, or the Exchange Act, as a non-U.S. company with foreign private issuer status. Even after we no longer qualify as an emerging growth company, as long as we continue to qualify as a foreign private issuer under the Exchange Act, we will be exempt from certain provisions of the Exchange Act that are applicable to U.S. domestic public companies, including:

●

the sections of the Exchange Act regulating the solicitation of proxies, consents or authorizations with respect to a security registered under the Exchange Act;

●

the sections of the Exchange Act requiring insiders to file public reports of their share ownership and trading activities and liability for insiders who profit from trades made in a short period of time; and

●

the rules under the Exchange Act requiring the filing with the SEC of quarterly reports on Form 10-Q containing unaudited financial statements and other specified information, and current reports on Form 8-K upon the occurrence of specified significant events.

We will be required to file an annual report on Form 20-F within four months of the end of each fiscal year. In addition, we intend to publish our results on a quarterly basis through press releases, distributed pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Nasdaq. Press releases relating to financial results and material events will also be furnished to the SEC on Form 6-K. However, the information we are required to file with or furnish to the SEC will be less extensive and less timely compared to that required to be filed with the SEC by U.S. domestic issuers. As a result, you may not be afforded the same protections or information, which would be made available to you, were you investing in a U.S. domestic issuer.

We may take advantage of these exemptions until such time as we are no longer a foreign private issuer. We would cease to be a foreign private issuer at such time as more than 50% of our outstanding voting securities are held by U.S. residents and any of the following three circumstances applies: (i) the majority of our executive officers or directors are U.S. citizens or residents; (ii) more than 50% of our assets are located in the United States; or (iii) our business is administered principally in the United States.

Both foreign private issuers and emerging growth companies are also exempt from certain more stringent executive compensation disclosure rules. Thus, even if we no longer qualify as an emerging growth company, but remain a foreign private issuer, we will continue to be exempt from the more stringent compensation disclosures required of companies that are neither an emerging growth company nor a foreign private issuer.

Investing in our ordinary shares involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below, in addition to the other information set forth in this prospectus, including the consolidated financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this prospectus, before purchasing our ordinary shares. If any of the following risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition, cash flows and results of operations could be negatively impacted. In that case, the trading price of our ordinary shares would likely decline and you might lose all or part of your investment. This prospectus also contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including the risks faced by us described below and elsewhere in this prospectus. See “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”

We have a history of losses and may not be able to achieve or maintain profitability.

We have incurred losses in each year since our incorporation in 2009, including net losses of $0.9 million and $2.4 million in the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and net losses of $0.8 million and $0.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. As a result, we had an accumulated deficit of $29.7 million and $30.6 million as December 31, 2021 and as of June 30, 2022, respectively. We intend to continue to expend substantial financial and other resources on, among other things:

These efforts may prove more expensive than we currently anticipate, and we may not succeed in increasing our revenue sufficiently, or at all, to offset these higher expenses. In addition, to the extent we are successful in increasing our customer base, we may also incur increased losses because of unforeseen costs. If our revenue does not increase to offset our operating expenses, we will not achieve profitability in future periods and our net losses may increase. Revenue growth may slow or revenue may decline for a number of possible reasons, many of which are beyond our control, including inability to penetrate new markets, slowing demand for our products and services, increasing competition, or any of the other factors discussed in this Risk Factors section. Any failure to increase our revenue as we grow our business could prevent us from achieving profitability at all or on a consistent basis, which would cause our business, financial condition and results of operations to suffer and the market price of our ordinary shares to decline.

In order for us to pursue our business objectives, we will need to raise additional capital, which additional capital may not be available on reasonable terms or at all. Any additional capital raised through the sale of equity or equity-backed securities may dilute our shareholders’ ownership percentages and could also result in a decrease in the market value of our equity securities. The terms of any securities issued by us in future capital transactions may be more favorable to new investors, and may include preferences, superior voting rights and the issuance of warrants or other derivative securities, which may have a further dilutive effect on the holders of any of our securities then outstanding. In addition, we may incur substantial costs in pursuing future capital financing, including investment banking fees, legal fees, accounting fees, securities law compliance fees, printing and distribution expenses and other costs. We may also be required to recognize non-cash expenses in connection with certain securities we issue, such as convertible notes and warrants, which may adversely impact our financial condition.

Our indebtedness could adversely affect our ability to raise additional capital to fund operations, limit our ability to react to changes in the economy or our industry and prevent us from meeting our financial obligations.

On July 7, 2022, we entered into a funding agreement with IBI Spikes, Ltd., or IBI, providing for a loan in the amount of NIS 3.1 million (approximately $900,000) and the issuance of 65,562 warrants after giving effect to a reverse share split that went into effect upon listing of our ordinary shares in this offering at a ratio of 1-for-5, as further described in “Management’s Discussion & Analysis—Liquidity and Resources—IBI Spikes Loan”.

If we cannot generate sufficient cash flow from operations to service our debt, we may need to further refinance our debt, dispose of assets or issue equity to obtain necessary funds. We do not know whether we will be able to do any of this on a timely basis, on terms satisfactory to us, or at all. Our indebtedness could have important consequences, including:

Our current product line is mainly geared to the high end, high quality media customers and we count among our customers Netflix, ViacomCBS, Snapfish, Wowza and other leading media companies using video and photo solutions. This product line involves high cost and complexity of deploying our existing software solutions and the long sales lead times.

In order to grow our business, in 2019, we resolved to build a lower cost offering which requires hardware acceleration and started to integrate with hardware encoders. In the first quarter of 2020, we introduced our first proof of concept results with Intel’s GPU. Then, we made a strategic decision to focus our resources on the development and commercialization of our next-generation product, the Beamr HW-Accelerated Content Adaptive Encoding solution, a SaaS solution that is designed, based on our own internal testing, to provide up to 10x cost-effective video optimization than existing solutions to an industry agnostic target market. This change in strategy and these efforts may prove more expensive than we currently anticipate, or may require longer development and deployment times, and we may not succeed in fully developing and implementing our SaaS solution sufficiently, or at all.

We may not be successful in establishing and maintaining strategic partnerships, which could adversely affect our ability to develop and commercialize our SaaS solution and other future products.

To successfully develop and commercialize our Beamr HW-Accelerated Content Adaptive Encoding solution and other product offerings, we will need substantial financial resources as well as expertise and physical resources and systems. We may elect to develop some or all of these physical resources and systems and expertise ourselves, or we may seek to collaborate with another company or companies that can provide some or all of such physical resources and systems as well as financial resources and expertise. For example, we are collaborating with NVIDIA, a leading developer of GPUs, in the development of our next generation product, the Beamr HW-Accelerated Content Adaptive Encoding solution, and we are collaborating with Allegro DVT in the development the world’s first content-adaptive silicon IP encoder.

We face significant competition in seeking appropriate partners for our products, and the negotiation process is time-consuming and complex. In order for us to successfully develop and commercialize our products with a strategic partner, potential partners must view our products as economically valuable in markets they determine to be attractive in light of the terms that we are seeking and other available products for licensing by other companies. Even if we are successful in our efforts to establish strategic partnerships, the terms that we agree upon may not be favorable to us, and we may not be able to maintain such strategic partnerships if, for example, development of a product is delayed or sales of a product are disappointing. Any delay in entering into strategic partnership agreements related to our products could delay the development and commercialization of our products and reduce their competitiveness even if they reach the market. If we fail to establish and maintain strategic partnerships related to our products, we will bear all of the risk and costs related to the development and commercialization of our products, and we will need to seek additional financing, hire additional employees and otherwise develop expertise which we do not have and for which we have not budgeted.

In addition, a strategic partner for one or more of our products may have the right to terminate the collaboration at its discretion. For example, our collaboration with NVIDIA is based on a mutual development program of our Beamr HW-Accelerated Content Adaptive Encoding solution that is in advanced stages and that has been approved at senior levels at NVIDIA however our collaboration has not been reduced to a written agreement and we have not signed any agreement with NVIDIA, which exposes us to the risk of termination of our collaboration at any time for any or no reason. Any early termination of our collaboration in a manner adverse to us could have a material adverse effect on our liquidity, financial condition and results of operations. Any termination may require us to seek a new strategic partner or partners, which we may not be able to do on a timely basis, if at all, or require us to delay or scale back our development and commercialization efforts. The occurrence of any of these events could adversely affect the development and commercialization of our products or product candidates and materially harm our business and share price by delaying the development of our products, and the sale of any products, by slowing the growth of such sales, by reducing the profitability of the product and/or by adversely affecting the reputation of the product.

Further, a strategic partner may breach an agreement with us, and we may not be able to adequately protect our rights under these agreements. Furthermore, a strategic partner will likely negotiate for certain rights to control decisions regarding the development and commercialization of our products and may not conduct those activities in the same manner as we would do so.

Our future growth depends in part upon the successful deployment of the Beamr HW-Accelerated Content Adaptive Encoding solution in the cloud.

Our current business is based on software licensing and is not capital intensive, usually paid for by our customers upfront on an annual basis. We are planning to expand our product offering with the Beamr HW-Accelerated Content Adaptive Encoding solution, a SaaS solution which is to be deployed on cloud platforms (e.g., AWS, Azure, and GCP) and will be volume-based solutions. Future payments that we will make to cloud platforms and payments we will receive from customers are hard to predict and will be based on different terms and conditions. We may also be at risk if there will be gaps between account receivables and account payables. In addition, attracting new customers to our SaaS offering may involve evaluation processes that prospects may not be willing to cover before experiencing satisfying results with our products and services, while we will continue to accrue cloud platform service costs.

We expect our SaaS operation will be based on spreads in which we first pay for computing platforms (e.g. GPU instances), and then we sell storage/bandwidth savings (e.g., AWS S3, CloudFront). Any future margins may be at risk if computing platform costs increase and storage/bandwidth costs decrease. In addition, our ability to grow and maintain customer base and revenue also depends on achieving significant storage/bitrate savings, translating into superior total cost of ownership and return on investment for our customers. While we believe that the Beamr HW-Accelerated Content Adaptive Encoding solution will result in significant savings for our customers, there is a risk that our savings for the customers might not be significant.

In addition, the Beamr HW-Accelerated Content Adaptive Encoding solution is based on hardware acceleration of our core technology. While we successfully tested our technology and our technology and software libraries have matured, the new implementation of the Beamr HW-Accelerated Content Adaptive Encoding has only been tested in limited proof of concept testing, and there is a technical risk when we transition to ultra-high volume production and utilizing platforms that were not tested.

There is a risk that we may not win customers that moved their long-tail assets to cold, or off-line storage services (e.g., Amazon S3 Glacier) for reduced storage costs. In addition, improvements in general encoding solutions that are based on “content-adaptive” or “content-aware” technologies may reduce the savings which our products and services can provide. Moreover, if the public cloud data services that utilize NVIDIA GPUs (e.g., Amazon, GCP, Azure) do not adopt, or take significant time to adopt, the Nvidia driver and firmware with our new capabilities, that could adversely affect our market penetration and future revenue growth.

We believe any future revenue growth will depend on a number of factors, including, among other things, our ability to:

If we are unable to accomplish any of these objectives, any revenue growth will be impaired. Many factors may contribute to declines in growth rate, including increased competition, slowing demand for our offerings, a failure by us to continue capitalizing on growth opportunities, the maturation of our business, and global economic downturns, among others. If our growth rate declines as a result of this or any of the other factors described above, investors’ perceptions of our business and the market price of our ordinary shares could be adversely affected.

Our ability to forecast our future results of operations is subject to a number of uncertainties, including our ability to effectively plan for and model future growth. We have encountered in the past, and may encounter in the future, risks and uncertainties frequently experienced by growing companies in rapidly changing industries that may prevent us from achieving the objectives outlined herein. If we fail to achieve the necessary level of efficiency in our organization as it grows, or if we are not able to accurately forecast future growth, our business would be adversely affected. Moreover, if the assumptions that we use to plan our business are incorrect or change in reaction to changes in our market, or if we are unable to maintain consistent revenue or revenue growth, the market price of our ordinary shares could be volatile, and it may be difficult to achieve and maintain profitability.

The failure to effectively develop and expand our marketing and sales capabilities could harm our ability to increase our customer base and achieve broader market acceptance of our offerings.

Our ability to increase our customer base and achieve broader market acceptance of our products and services and in particular the Beamr HW-Accelerated Content Adaptive Encoding solution will depend to a significant extent on our ability to expand our sales and marketing operations. As part of our growth strategy, we plan to dedicate significant resources to our marketing programs. All of these efforts will require us to invest significant financial and other resources. Our business will be harmed if our efforts do not generate a correspondingly significant increase in revenue.

We plan to make continued investments in the growth and expansion of our business and customer base including in particular substantial investment of resources in the development and commercialization of our next-generation product, the Beamr HW-Accelerated Content Adaptive Encoding solution. The growth and expansion of our business places a continuous and significant strain on our management, operational, financial and other resources. In addition, as customers adopt our offerings for an increasing number of use cases, we have had to support more complex commercial relationships. In order to manage our growth effectively, we must continue to improve and expand our information technology and financial infrastructure, our security and compliance requirements, our operating and administrative systems, our customer service and support capabilities, our relationships with various partners and other third parties, and our ability to manage headcount and processes in an efficient manner.

We may not be able to sustain the pace of improvements to our products and services, or the development and introduction of new offerings, successfully, or implement systems, processes, and controls in an efficient or timely manner or in a manner that does not negatively affect our results of operations. Our failure to improve our systems, processes, and controls, or their failure to operate in the intended manner, may result in our inability to manage the growth of our business and to forecast our revenue, expenses, and earnings accurately, or to prevent losses.

As we continue to expand our business and operate as a public company, we may find it difficult to maintain our corporate culture while managing our employee growth. Any failure to manage our anticipated growth and related organizational changes in a manner that preserves our culture could negatively impact future growth and achievement of our business objectives. Additionally, our productivity and the quality of our offerings may be adversely affected if we do not integrate and train our new employees quickly and effectively. Failure to manage our growth to date and any future growth effectively could result in increased costs, negatively affect customer satisfaction and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects.

The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

In December 2019, an outbreak of a novel coronavirus disease, or COVID-19, was first identified and began to spread across the globe and, in March 2020, the World Health Organization declared it a pandemic. This contagious disease has spread across the globe and is impacting economic activity and financial markets worldwide, including countries in which our end users and customers are located, as well as the United States and Israel where we have business operations. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, government authorities around the world have ordered schools and businesses to close, imposed restrictions on non-essential activities and required people to remain at home while imposing significant restrictions on traveling and social gatherings.

In light of the uncertain and rapidly evolving situation relating to the spread of COVID-19, as well as government mandates, we took precautionary measures intended to minimize the risk of the virus to our employees, our customers, our partners and the communities in which we operate, which could negatively impact our business. In the first quarter of 2020, we temporarily closed all of our offices and enabled our entire workforce to work remotely. We also suspended all travel worldwide for our employees for non-essential business. While we subsequently reopened our offices, most of our employees continued to work remotely, a majority of whom continue to do so as of the date of this prospectus. These changes could extend into future quarters.

While COVID-19 has not had a material adverse impact on our operations through the date of this prospectus, the impact of COVID-19 on our ability to attract, serve, retain or upsell customers is inherently uncertain and depends on the duration, severity and potential resurgence of the pandemic and its impact on end users, customers and the macroeconomic environment as a whole. Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, our employees traveled frequently to establish and maintain relationships with one another, as well as our customers, partners, and investors. Although we continue to monitor the situation and may adjust our current policies as more information and public health guidance become available, continued limitations on travel and doing business in person may negatively affect our customer success efforts, sales and marketing efforts, challenge our ability to enter into customer contracts in a timely manner, slow down our recruiting efforts, or create operational or other challenges, any of which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Furthermore, COVID-19 has disrupted and may continue to disrupt the operations of our customers and technology partners for an indefinite period of time, including as a result of travel restrictions and/or business shutdowns, all of which could negatively impact our business, financial condition and results of operations. More generally, the COVID-19 pandemic has adversely affected economies and financial markets globally, leading to an economic downturn, which could decrease technology spending and adversely affect demand for our offerings and harm our business, financial condition and results of operations. Existing and potential customers may choose to reduce or delay technology investments in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, or attempt to renegotiate contracts and obtain concessions, which may materially and negatively impact our operating results, financial condition and prospects. For example, as a result of COVID-19, we have experienced and expect to continue to experience an increase in the average length of sales cycles to onboard new customers, delays in new projects, and requests by some customers for extension of payment obligations, all of which could materially and adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations in future periods. The COVID-19 pandemic has also resulted in, and may continue to result in, significant disruption of global financial markets, reducing our ability to access capital, which could in the future negatively affect our liquidity. It is also possible that continued widespread remote work arrangements may have a negative impact on our operations, the execution of our business plans, the productivity and availability of key personnel and other employees necessary to conduct our business, and on third-party service providers who perform critical services for us, or otherwise cause operational failures due to changes in our normal business practices necessitated by the pandemic and related governmental actions. If a natural disaster, power outage, connectivity issue, or other event occurred that impacted our employees’ ability to work remotely, it may be difficult or, in certain cases, impossible, for us to continue our business for a substantial period of time. The increase in remote working may also result in privacy, data protection, data security, and fraud risks, and our understanding of applicable legal and regulatory requirements, as well as the latest guidance from regulatory authorities in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic, may be subject to legal or regulatory challenge, particularly as regulatory guidance evolves in response to future developments.

It is not possible at this time to estimate the long-term impact that COVID-19 could have on our business, financial condition and results of operations as the impact will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including, but not limited to, the duration and spread of the pandemic, its severity, the actions to contain the virus or treat its impact, and how quickly and to what extent normal economic and operating conditions can resume. Even after the COVID-19 pandemic has subsided, we may experience materially adverse impacts to our business as a result of its global economic impact, including any recession that has occurred or may occur in the future.

The markets in which we operate, in particular the video storage market, are relatively new and rapidly evolving. Accordingly, it is difficult to predict customer adoption, renewals and demand, the entry of new competitive products, the success of existing competitive products, and the future growth rate, expansion, longevity, and size of the markets for our products and services. The expansion of these new and evolving markets depends on a number of factors, including the cost, performance, and perceived value associated with the technologies that we and others in our industry develop. If we or other companies in our industry experience security incidents, loss of customer data, or disruptions in delivery or service, the market for these applications as a whole, including the demand for our offerings, may be negatively affected. If video products and solutions such as ours do not continue to achieve market acceptance, or there is a reduction in demand caused by decreased customer acceptance, technological challenges, weakening economic conditions, privacy, data protection and data security concerns, governmental regulation, competing technologies and products, or decreases in information technology spending or otherwise, the market for our offerings might not continue to develop or might develop more slowly than we expect, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects.

Our results of operations are likely to fluctuate from quarter to quarter and year to year, which could adversely affect the trading price of our ordinary shares.

Our results of operations, including our revenue, cost of revenue, gross margin, operating expenses, cash flow, and deferred revenue, have fluctuated from quarter to quarter and year to year in the past and may continue to vary significantly in the future so that period-to-period comparisons of our results of operations may not be meaningful. Accordingly, our financial results in any one quarter should not be relied upon as indicative of future performance. Our quarterly financial results may fluctuate as a result of a variety of factors, many of which are outside of our control, may be difficult to predict, and may not fully reflect the underlying performance of our business. Factors that may cause fluctuations in our quarterly financial results include:

In particular, our cost of revenue is generally higher in periods during which we acquire new customers.

The impact of one or more of the foregoing or other factors may cause our results of operations to vary significantly. Such fluctuations make forecasting more difficult and could cause us to fail to meet the expectations of investors and securities analysts, which could cause the trading price of our ordinary shares to fall substantially, resulting in the loss of all or part of your investment, and subject us to costly lawsuits, including securities class action suits.

Our future success is dependent on our ability to establish and maintain successful relationships with a diverse set of customers.

We currently derive a significant portion of our revenue from a limited number of our customers. For the years ended December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, our top ten customers in the aggregate accounted for approximately 62% of our revenues. In the six months ended June 30, 2022, our top ten customers in the aggregate accounted for approximately 58% of our revenues.

Until we can derive revenue, if any, from the Beamr HW-Accelerated Content Adaptive Encoding solution, we expect to continue to derive a significant portion of our revenue from a limited number of customers in the future and, in some cases, the portion of our revenue attributable to individual customers may increase. The loss of one or more significant customers or a reduction in the amount of revenue we derive from any such customer could significantly and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Customers may choose not to renew their contracts or may otherwise reduce the breadth of the offerings which they purchase for any number of reasons. We are also subject to the risk that any such customer will experience financial difficulties that prevent them from making payments to us on a timely basis or at all.

The markets in which we compete are characterized by rapid technological change, frequent introductions of new products, services, features and capabilities, and evolving industry standards and regulatory requirements. Our ability to grow our customer base and increase our revenue will depend in significant part on our ability to develop or otherwise introduce new products and solutions; develop or otherwise introduce new features, integrations, capabilities and other enhancements to our existing offerings on a timely basis; and interoperate across an increasing range of devices, operating systems and third-party applications. The success of any new products or solutions, or enhancements to our existing offerings, will depend on a number of factors including, but not limited to, the timeliness and effectiveness of our research and product development activities and go-to-market strategy, our ability to anticipate customer needs and achieve market acceptance, our ability to manage the risks associated with new product releases, the effective management of development and other spending in connection with the product development process, and the availability of other newly developed products and technologies by our competitors.

In addition, in connection with our product development efforts, we may introduce significant changes to our existing products or solutions, or develop or otherwise introduce new and unproven products or solutions, including technologies with which we have little or no prior development or operating experience. These new products, solutions and updates may not perform as expected, may fail to engage our customer base or other end users of our products, or may otherwise create a lag in adoption of such new products. New products may initially suffer from performance and quality issues that may negatively impact our ability to market and sell such products to new and existing customers. We have in the past experienced bugs, errors, or other defects or deficiencies in new products and product updates and delays in releasing new products, deployment options, and product enhancements and may have similar experiences in the future. As a result, some of our customers may either defer purchasing our offerings until the next upgrade is released or switch to a competitor if we are not able to keep up with technological developments. To keep pace with technological and competitive developments we have in the past invested, and may in the future invest, in the acquisition of complementary businesses, technologies, services, products, and other assets that expand our offerings. We may make these investments without being certain that they will result in products or enhancements that will be accepted by existing or prospective customers or that will achieve market acceptance. The short- and long-term impact of any major change to our offerings, or the introduction of new products or solutions, is particularly difficult to predict. If new or enhanced offerings fail to engage our customer base or other end users of our products, or do not perform as expected, we may fail to generate sufficient revenue, operating margin, or other value to justify our investments in such products, any of which may adversely affect our reputation and negatively affect our business in the short-term, long-term, or both. If we are unable to successfully enhance our existing offerings to meet evolving customer requirements, increase adoption and use cases of our offerings, develop or otherwise introduce new products and solutions and quickly resolve security vulnerabilities or other errors or defects, or if our efforts in any of these areas are more expensive than we expect, our business, financial condition and results of operations would be adversely affected.

Our success depends in part on our ability to integrate our products and services with a variety of network, hardware and software platforms, and we need to continuously modify and enhance our offerings to adapt to changes in hardware, software, networking, browser and database technologies. Third-party products and services are constantly evolving, and we may not be able to modify our offerings to ensure their compatibility with those of other third parties following development changes. Any losses or shifts in the market position of the providers of these third-party products and services could require us to identify and develop integrations with new third-party technologies. Such changes could consume substantial resources and may not be effective. Any expansion into new geographies may also require us to integrate our offerings with new third-party technologies, products and services and invest in developing new relationships with these providers. If we are unable to respond to changes in a cost-effective manner, our offerings may become less marketable, less competitive, or obsolete, and our business, financial condition and results of operations may be negatively impacted.

In addition, a significant percentage of our customers may choose to integrate our products and services with certain capabilities of third-party hardware and software providers using APIs. The functionality and popularity of our products and services may depend, in part, on their ability to integrate with a wide variety of third-party applications and software. Third-party providers of applications may change the features of their applications and software, restrict our access to their applications and software or alter the terms governing use of their applications and access to those applications and software in an adverse manner. Such changes could functionally limit or eliminate our ability to use these third-party applications and software in conjunction with our offerings, which could negatively impact customer demand, our competitive position and adversely affect our business.

While there are several companies offering video compression solutions such as MainConcept, Ateme, Ittiam, Visionular and open source (x264/x265), we believe there is currently no direct competitor with our content-adaptive video compression solutions. There are companies that offer software solutions for video optimization such as Harmonic and Elemental, and other companies offering storage optimization (but not involving video technologies) such as EMC and Seagate. In addition, for our quality measure, some of our current competitors include SSIMWave (SSIMPlus), Apple (AVQT), Google (YouVQ) and open source (VMAF). We operate in a highly specialized area that is evolving very quickly with rapid developments. In the future, competitors could develop products or solutions that compete with our video compression solutions. For example, the public cloud platforms such as AWS, Azure, and GCP could in the future develop their own video optimization hardware accelerated solutions.

We believe the following competitive attributes are necessary for our solutions to successfully compete in the video compression market:

Additionally, we compete with home-grown, start-up, and open source technologies across the categories described above. With the introduction of new technologies and the entrance of new market participants, competition has intensified, and we expect it to continue to intensify in the future. Established companies are also developing their own video encoding and optimization platforms, products and solutions within their own core product lines, and may continue to do so in the future. Established companies may also acquire or establish product integration, distribution or other cooperative relationships with our current competitors. New competitors or alliances among competitors may emerge from time to time and rapidly acquire significant market share due to various factors such as their greater brand name recognition, larger existing user or customer base, consumer preferences for their offerings, a larger or more effective sales organization and greater financial, technical, marketing and other resources and experience. Furthermore, with the recent increase in large merger and acquisition transactions in the technology industry, particularly transactions involving cloud-based technologies, there is a greater likelihood that we will compete with other larger technology companies in the future. Companies resulting from these potential consolidations may create more compelling product offerings and be able to offer more attractive pricing options, making it more difficult for us to compete effectively.

Many of our competitors have, and some of our potential competitors may have, greater financial, technical, and other resources, longer operating histories, greater brand recognition, larger sales forces and marketing budgets, broader distribution networks, more diverse product and services offerings, larger and more mature intellectual property portfolios, more established relationships in the industry and with customers, lower cost structures and greater customer experience resources. These competitors may be able to respond more quickly and effectively than we can to new or changing opportunities, technologies, standards and customer requirements. They may be able to leverage these resources to gain business in a manner that discourages customers from purchasing our offerings, including through selling at zero or negative margins, product bundling, forced product migrations, auto-installation of applications, or closed technology platforms. Potential customers may also prefer to purchase from companies with which they have an existing relationship rather than a new supplier, regardless of product performance or features. Furthermore, we expect that our industry will continue to attract new companies, including smaller emerging companies, which could introduce new offerings. We may also expand into new markets and encounter additional competitors in such markets. These competitive pressures in the markets in which we operate, or our failure to compete effectively, may result in price reductions, fewer customers, reduced revenue, gross profit and gross margins, increased net losses and loss of market share. Any failure to effectively address these factors could significantly and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

If we are unable to increase sales of our products and services to new customers, expand the offerings to which our existing customers subscribe, or expand the value of our existing sales, our future revenue and results of operations will be adversely affected.

Our success depends on our ability to sell our products and services to new customers and to expand within our existing customer base by selling products and services for additional offerings to our existing customers and expanding the value of existing customers’ subscriptions, and to do so in a cost-effective manner. Our ability to sell new products and services and expand the value of existing sales depends on a number of factors, including the prices of our offerings and their functionality, the prices of products offered by our competitors, and the budgets of our customers. We also plan to offer an initial trial period for certain of our offerings. To the extent prospective customers utilize this trial period without becoming, or lead others not to become, paying customers, our expenses may increase as a result of associated hosting costs, and our ability to grow our business may be adversely affected. There is no guarantee that such events will translate into new customers.

In addition, a significant aspect of our sales and marketing focus is to expand deployments within existing customers. The rate at which our customers purchase additional offerings and expand the value of their existing offerings depends on a number of factors, including, among other things, customers’ level of satisfaction with our offerings and customer support, the nature and size of the deployments, the desire to address additional use cases, and the availability of, and customers’ awareness of and perceived need for, additional features, integrations, capabilities or other enhancements, as well as general economic conditions. If our customers do not recognize the potential of our offerings, our business would be materially and adversely affected.

If our existing customers do not renew their order of products or subscription to services, or if they renew on terms that are less economically beneficial to us, it could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We expect to derive a significant portion of our revenue from renewals of subscriptions. Customers have no contractual obligation to renew their subscriptions after the completion of their subscription term. Subscriptions for most of our offerings are offered on either an annual or multi-year basis. Our subscriptions may also generally include committed usage amounts. As a result, we cannot provide assurance that customers will renew their subscriptions for a similar contract period or with the same or greater product depth, number of users, functionality or other terms that are equally or more economically beneficial to us, if they renew at all.

Our customers’ renewals may decline or fluctuate as a result of a number of factors, including their satisfaction with our products and our customer support, the frequency and severity of product outages, our product uptime or latency, the pricing of our offering in relation to competing offerings, additional new features, integrations, capabilities or other enhancements that we offer, updates to our products as a result of updates by technology partners, and customers or users no longer having a need for our offerings . Renewal rates may also be impacted by general economic conditions or other factors that reduce customers’ spending levels. If our customers do not renew their subscriptions or renew on terms less economically favorable to us, our revenue may decline or grow less quickly than anticipated, which would adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

If we fail to meet contractual commitments under our customer agreements, we could be subject to contractual penalties, litigation and other liabilities, and could experience an increase in contract terminations or decrease in contract renewals in future periods, which would lower our revenue, increase our costs and otherwise adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our customer agreements may contain service-level commitments. If we are unable to meet the stated service-level commitments, including failure to meet the uptime and response time requirements under our customer agreements, we may be contractually obligated to provide these customers with service credits, or customers could elect to terminate and receive refunds for prepaid amounts related to unused subscriptions, either of which could significantly affect our revenue in the periods in which the failure occurs and the credits are applied or refunds paid out. In addition, customer terminations or any reduction in renewals resulting from service-level failures could significantly affect both our current and future revenue. We cannot guarantee that we will not experience a material decrease in customer renewals in future periods as additional customers cycle through their subscription terms.

Furthermore, any service-level failures or failure to meet committed delivery schedules and milestones could also create negative publicity and damage our reputation, which may discourage prospective customers from adopting our offerings. In addition, if we modify the terms of our contractual commitments in future customer agreements in a manner customers perceive to be unfavorable, demand for our offerings could be reduced. The occurrence of these or any of the events discussed above could have a significant adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flow, as well as our ability to grow our business.

We rely on third parties, including third parties outside the United States, for some of our software development, quality assurance, operations, and customer support.

We currently depend on various third parties for some of our software development efforts, quality assurance, operations, and customer support services. Specifically, through our subsidiary Beamr Imaging RU we undertake some of our software development and design, quality assurance, and operations activities using employees and consultants located in Russia. Our dependence on third-parties creates a number of risks, in particular, the risk that we may not maintain development quality, control, or effective management with respect to these business operations. In addition, the Russian invasion of Ukraine, poor relations between the United States and Russia, and sanctions by the United States and the European Union, or the EU, against Russia could have an adverse impact on our third-party software development in Russia. See also “Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Operations in Russia.” We anticipate that we will continue to depend on these and other third-party relationships in order to grow our business for the foreseeable future. If we are unsuccessful in maintaining existing and, if needed, establishing new relationships with third parties, our ability to efficiently operate existing services or develop new services and provide adequate customer support could be impaired, and, as a result, our competitive position or our results of operations could suffer.

Our future success depends, in part, on our ability to continue to attract and retain highly skilled personnel. The loss of the services of any of our key personnel, the inability to attract or retain qualified personnel, or delays in hiring required personnel, particularly in engineering and sales, may seriously and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Although we have entered into employment or consulting agreements with our personnel, their employment is generally for no specific duration. We are also substantially dependent on the continued service of our existing IT personnel because of the complexity of our products.

Our future performance also depends on the continued services and continuing contributions of our senior management team, which includes Sharon Carmel, our founder and Chief Executive Officer, to execute on our business plan and to identify and pursue new opportunities and product innovations. The loss of services of our senior management team, particularly our Chief Executive Officer, could significantly delay or prevent the achievement of our development and strategic objectives, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Additionally, the industry in which we operate is generally characterized by significant competition for skilled personnel, as well as high employee attrition. There is currently a high demand for experienced software industry personnel, particularly for engineering, research and development, sales and support positions, and we may not be successful in attracting, integrating and retaining qualified personnel to fulfill our current and future needs. This intense competition has resulted in increasing wages, especially in Israel, where our headquarters is located and most of our research and development positions are located, and in California, where our sales offices are located, which may make it more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified personnel, as many of the companies against which we compete for personnel have greater financial resources than we do. These competitors may also actively seek to hire our existing personnel away from us, even if such employee has entered into a non-compete agreement. We may be unable to enforce these agreements under the laws of the jurisdictions in which our employees work. For example, Israeli labor courts have required employers seeking to enforce non-compete undertakings of a former employee to demonstrate that the competitive activities of the former employee will harm one of a limited number of material interests of the employer that have been recognized by the courts, such as the protection of a company’s confidential information or other intellectual property, taking into account, among other things, the employee’s tenure, position, and the degree to which the non-compete undertaking limits the employee’s freedom of occupation. We may not be able to make such a demonstration. Also, to the extent we hire personnel from competitors, we may be subject to allegations that they have been improperly solicited or that they have divulged their former employers’ proprietary or other confidential information or incorporated such information into our products, which could include claims that such former employers therefore own or otherwise have rights to their inventions or other work product developed while employed by us.

In addition, in making employment decisions, particularly in the internet and high-technology industries, job candidates often consider the value of the equity they are to receive in connection with their employment. Employees may be more likely to leave us if the shares they own or the shares underlying their equity incentive awards have significantly appreciated or significantly reduced in value. Many of our employees may receive significant proceeds from sales of our equity in the public markets after this offering, which may reduce their motivation to continue to work for us and could lead to employee attrition. If we fail to attract new personnel, or fail to retain and motivate our current personnel, our business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects could be adversely affected.

If we are not able to maintain and enhance awareness of our brand, especially among companies who store large amounts of video files, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected.

We believe that developing and maintaining widespread awareness of our brand, especially with companies who store large amounts of video files, is critical to achieving widespread acceptance of our products and services and attracting new users and customers. Brand promotion activities may not generate user or customer awareness or increase revenue, and even if they do, any increase in revenue may not offset the expenses we incur in building our brand. If we fail to successfully promote and maintain our brand, we may fail to attract and retain users and customers necessary to realize a sufficient return on our brand-building efforts, and may fail to achieve the widespread brand awareness that is critical for broad customer adoption of our offerings.

Our corporate culture has contributed to our success, and if we cannot maintain this culture as we grow, we could lose the innovation, creativity, and entrepreneurial spirit we have worked to foster, which could adversely affect our business.

We believe that our corporate culture, which is based on openness, flexibility, and collaboration, has been and will continue to be a key contributor to our success. We expect to hire aggressively as we expand. If we do not continue to maintain our corporate culture as we grow, we may be unable to foster the innovation, creativity, and entrepreneurial spirit we believe we need to support our growth. The growth and expansion of our business and our transition from a private company to a public company may result in changes to our corporate culture, which could adversely affect our business, including our ability to recruit and retain qualified personnel.

Our failure to offer high quality customer support would have an adverse effect on our business, reputation and results of operations.

Our customers depend on our customer success managers to resolve issues and realize the full benefits relating to our products and services. If we do not succeed in helping our customers quickly resolve post-deployment issues or provide effective ongoing support and education, our ability to renew contracts with, or establish contracts for additional offerings to, existing customers, or expand the value of existing customers’ contracts, would be adversely affected and our reputation with potential customers could be damaged. In addition, most of our existing customers are large enterprises with complex information technology environments and, as a result, require significant levels of support. If we fail to meet the requirements of these customers, it may be more difficult to grow sales or maintain our relationships with them.

Additionally, while growing our need for customer success managers is a key component of our growth strategy, it can take several months to recruit, hire and train qualified engineering-level customer support employees, and we may not be able to hire such resources fast enough to keep up with demand during the relevant time in the future. To the extent that we are unsuccessful in hiring, training and retaining adequate support resources, our ability to provide adequate and timely support to our customers, and our customers’ satisfaction with our products and services, will be adversely affected. Any failure by us to provide and maintain high-quality customer support services would have an adverse effect on our business, reputation and results of operations.

The sales prices of our offerings may change, which may reduce our revenue and gross profit and adversely affect our financial results.

The sales prices for our offerings may be subject to change for a variety of reasons, including competitive pricing pressures, discounts, anticipation of the introduction of new products, promotional programs, general economic conditions, or our marketing, user acquisition and technology costs and, as a result, we anticipate that we will need to change our pricing model from time to time. In the past, we have sometimes adjusted our prices for individual customers in certain situations, and expect to continue to do so in the future. Moreover, demand for our offerings is price-sensitive. Competition continues to increase in the market segments in which we operate, and we expect competition to further increase in the future, thereby leading to increased pricing pressures. Larger competitors with more diverse offerings may reduce the price of offerings that compete with ours or may bundle them with other offerings and provide for free. Similarly, certain competitors may use marketing strategies that enable them to acquire customers more rapidly or at a lower cost than us, or both, and we may be unable to attract new customers or grow and retain our customer base based on our historical pricing. Additionally, currency fluctuations in certain countries and regions may negatively impact actual prices that customers and resellers are willing to pay in those countries and regions. As we develop and introduce new offerings, as well as features, integrations, capabilities and other enhancements, we may need to, or choose to, revise our pricing. There can be no assurance that we will not be forced to engage in price-cutting initiatives or to increase our marketing and other expenses to attract customers in response to competitive or other pressures. Any decrease in the sales prices for our products, without a corresponding decrease in costs, increase in volume or increase in revenue from our other offerings, would adversely affect our revenue and gross profit. We cannot assure you that we will be able to maintain our prices and gross profits at levels that will allow us to achieve and maintain profitability.

Our products and services address the needs of customers and end users around the world, and we see continued international expansion as a significant opportunity. For the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, we generated approximately 21% and 19% of our revenue, respectively, and, for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, we generated approximately 34% and 37% of our revenue, respectively, from customers outside the United States. Our customers, end users, employees and partners are located in a number of different jurisdictions worldwide, and we expect our operations will become increasingly global as our business continues to grow. Our current international operations involve, and future initiatives will also involve, a variety of risks, including:

If we are unable to address these difficulties and challenges or other problems encountered in connection with our international operations and expansion, we might incur unanticipated liabilities or we might otherwise suffer harm to our business generally.

Currency exchange rate fluctuations and inflation affect our results of operations, as reported in our financial statements.

We report our financial results in U.S. dollars. We collect our revenue primarily in U.S. dollars and NIS. A portion of the cost of revenue, research and development, selling and marketing and general and administrative expenses of our Israeli and Russian operations are incurred in NIS or in Russian Ruble, or RUB. As a result, we are exposed to exchange rate risks that may materially and adversely affect our financial results. If the NIS or RUB appreciates against the U.S. dollar, or if the value of the NIS or RUB decline against the U.S. dollar, at a time when the rate of inflation in the cost of Israeli and Russian goods and services exceed the rate of decline in the relative value of the NIS and RUB, then the U.S. dollar-denominated cost of our operations in Israel and Russia would increase and our results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

Inflation in Israel compounds the adverse impact of a devaluation of the NIS against the U.S. dollar by further increasing the amount of our Israeli expenses. Israeli inflation may also (in the future) outweigh the positive effect of any appreciation of the U.S. dollar relative to the NIS, if, and to the extent that, it outpaces such appreciation or precedes such appreciation. The Israeli rate of inflation did not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition during 2020 or 2021. Given our general lack of currency hedging arrangements to protect us from fluctuations in the exchange rates of the NIS or the RUB in relation to the U.S. dollar (and/or from inflation of such non-U.S. currencies), we may be exposed to material adverse effects from such movements. We cannot predict any future trends in the rate of inflation in Israel or in Russia or the rate of devaluation (if any) of the U.S. dollar against the NIS or the RUB.

In particular, due to the recent Russian invasion of Ukraine, there has been significant currency rate fluctuations between the U.S. dollar and RUB. We cannot predict any future exchange-rate fluctuations and future trends in the rate of inflation in Israel and Russia and our ability to hedge our exposure to currency exchange rate fluctuations may be limited.

In addition, we use products and services and offer our products and services through cloud services, which may publish different prices in different locations. These differences in prices and locations may impact our costs and margins, and value we bring to our customers.

Risks Related to Information Technology, Intellectual Property and Data Security and Privacy

Our products and services are inherently complex and, despite extensive testing and quality control, have in the past and may in the future contain bugs, defects, security vulnerabilities, errors, or other performance failures, especially when first introduced, or otherwise not perform as intended. Any such bug, defect, security vulnerability, error, or other performance failure could cause damage to our reputation, loss of customers or revenue, order cancellations, service terminations, and lack of market acceptance of our offerings. As the use of our offerings among new and existing customers expands, particularly to more sensitive, secure, or mission critical uses, we may be subject to increased scrutiny, potential reputational risk, or potential liability should our offerings fail to perform as contemplated in such deployments. We have in the past and may in the future need to issue corrective releases of our software to fix these defects, errors or performance failures, which could require us to allocate significant research and development and customer support resources to address these problems. Despite our efforts, such corrections may take longer to develop and release than we or our customers anticipate and expect.

Any limitation of liability provision contained in an agreement with a customer, user, third-party vendor, service provider, or partner may not be enforceable, adequate or effective as a result of existing or future applicable law or judicial decisions, and may not function to limit our liability arising from regulatory enforcement or other specific circumstances. The sale and support of our offerings entail the risk of liability claims, which could be substantial in light of the use of our offerings in enterprise-wide environments. In addition, our insurance against any such liability may not be adequate to cover a potential claim, and may be subject to exclusions, or subject us to the risk that the insurer will deny coverage as to any future claim or exclude from our coverage such claims in policy renewals, increase our fees or deductibles or impose co-insurance requirements. Any such bugs, defects, security vulnerabilities, errors, or other performance failures in our products and services, including as a result of denial of claims by our insurer or the successful assertion of claims by others against us that exceed available insurance coverage, or the occurrence of changes in our insurance policies, including increases or the imposition of large deductible or co-insurance requirements, could have a material adverse effect on our business, including our financial condition, results of operations and reputation.

Our business products and services involve the collection, storage, processing, transmission and other use of data, including certain confidential, sensitive, and personal information. Any security breach, data loss, or other compromise, including those resulting from a cybersecurity attack, phishing attack, or any unauthorized access, unauthorized usage, virus or similar breach or disruption could result in the loss or destruction of or unauthorized access to, or use, alteration, disclosure, or acquisition of, data, damage to our reputation, litigation, regulatory investigations, or other liabilities. These attacks may come from individual hackers, criminal groups, and state-sponsored organizations. If our security measures are breached as a result of third-party action, employee error or negligence, a defect or bug in our offerings or those of our third-party service providers, malfeasance or otherwise and, as a result, someone obtains unauthorized access to any data, including our confidential, sensitive, or personal information or the confidential, sensitive, or personal information of our customers, or other persons, or any of these types of information is lost, destroyed, or used, altered, disclosed, or acquired without authorization, our reputation may be damaged, our business may suffer, and we could incur significant liability, including under applicable data privacy and security laws and regulations. Even the perception of inadequate security may damage our reputation and negatively impact our ability to win new customers and retain and receive timely payments from existing customers. Further, we could be required to expend significant capital and other resources to protect against and address any data security incident or breach, which may not be covered or fully covered by our insurance and which may involve payments for investigations, forensic analyses, regulatory compliance, breach notification, legal advice, public relations advice, system repair or replacement, or other services. In addition, we do not maintain cybersecurity insurance and therefore have no insurance coverage in the event of any breach or disruption of our or our customers’ or service providers’ systems, including any unauthorized access or loss of any personal data that we may collect, store or otherwise process. To the extent that any disruption or security breach were to result in a loss of, or damage to, our data or systems, or inappropriate disclosure of confidential or proprietary information, we could incur liability, our competitive position could be harmed and our business, operations, and financial results could be adversely affected.

In addition, part of the process of our solution is replacing our customer’s native image and video files with optimized, compressed files. This process and replacement of files can result in data loss. Additionally, we do not directly control content that our customers store or use in our products. If our customers use our products for the transmission or storage of personal, confidential, sensitive, or other information about individuals and our security measures are or are believed to have been breached as a result of third-party action, employee error, malfeasance or otherwise, our reputation could be damaged, our business may suffer, and we could incur significant liability.

We engage third-party vendors and service providers to store and otherwise process some of our and our customers’ data, including personal, confidential, sensitive, and other information about individuals. Our vendors and service providers may also be the targets of cyberattacks, malicious software, phishing schemes, and fraud. Our ability to monitor our vendors and service providers’ data security is limited, and, in any event, third parties may be able to circumvent those security measures, resulting in the unauthorized access to, misuse, acquisition, disclosure, loss, alteration, or destruction of our and our customers’ data, including confidential, sensitive, and other information about individuals.

Techniques used to sabotage or obtain unauthorized access to systems or networks are constantly evolving and, in some instances, are not identified until after they have been launched against a target. We and our service providers may be unable to anticipate these techniques, react in a timely manner, or implement adequate preventative and mitigating measures. If we are unable to efficiently and effectively maintain and upgrade our system safeguards, we may incur unexpected costs and certain of our systems may become more vulnerable to unauthorized access or disruption. Any of the foregoing could have a material adverse effect on our business, including our financial condition, results of operations and reputation.

Insufficient investment in, or interruptions or performance problems associated with, our technology and infrastructure, including in connection with our Beamr HW-Accelerated Content Adaptive Encoding solution is to be deployed on a public cloud infrastructure, and our reliance on technologies from third parties, may adversely affect our business operations and financial results.

Customers of our offerings will need to be able to access our platform at any time, without interruption or degradation of performance. Our Beamr HW-Accelerated Content Adaptive Encoding solution is to be deployed on a public cloud infrastructure with the goal of providing improved stability, reliability, scalability and elasticity for our offerings. We may discover deficiencies in our design, implementation or maintenance of our Beamr HW-Accelerated Content Adaptive Encoding solution that could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Furthermore, we cannot yet know the ultimate impact of this or any similar future event on our customer relationships.

In addition, third-party cloud providers run their own platforms that we access, and we are, therefore, vulnerable to their service interruptions and any changes in their product offerings. Any limitation on the capacity of our third-party hosting services could impede our ability to onboard new customers or expand the usage of our existing customers, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, any incident affecting our third-party hosting services’ infrastructure that may be caused by cyber-attacks, computer viruses, malware, systems failures or other technical malfunctions, natural disasters, fire, flood, severe storm, earthquake, power loss, telecommunications failures, terrorist or other attacks, protests or riots, and other similar events beyond our control could negatively affect our cloud-based offerings. It is also possible that our customers and regulators would seek to hold us accountable for any breach of security affecting a third-party cloud provider’s infrastructure and we may incur significant liability in investigating such an incident and responding to any claims, investigations, or proceedings made or initiated by those customers, regulators, and other third parties. We may not be able to recover a material portion of such liabilities from any of our third-party cloud providers. It may also become increasingly difficult to maintain and improve our performance and cost, especially during peak usage times, as our processing cost might be higher during peak hours. Moreover, our insurance may not be adequate to cover such liability and may be subject to exclusions. Any of the above circumstances or events may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

In the event that our service agreements with our third-party hosting services are terminated, or there is a lapse of service, elimination of services or features that we utilize, interruption of internet service provider connectivity or damage to our providers’ facilities, we could experience interruptions in access to our platform as well as significant delays and additional expense in arranging or creating new facilities and services and/or re-architecting our cloud-based offerings for deployment on a different cloud infrastructure service provider, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Upon the termination or expiration of such service agreements, we cannot guarantee that adequate third-party hosting services will be available to us on commercially acceptable terms or within adequate timelines from the same or different hosting services providers or at all.

We may also rely on cloud technologies from third parties in order to operate critical functions of our business, including financial management services, relationship management services, and lead generation management services. If these services become unavailable due to extended outages or interruptions or because they are no longer available on commercially reasonable terms or prices, our expenses could increase, our ability to manage our finances could be interrupted, our processes for managing sales of our products and supporting our customers could be impaired, and our ability to generate and manage sales leads could be weakened until equivalent services are identified, obtained, and implemented. Even if such services are available, we may not be able to identify, obtain and implement such services in time to avoid disruption to our business, and such services may only be available on a more costly basis or otherwise less favorable terms. Any of the foregoing could have a material adverse effect on our business, including our financial condition, results of operations and reputation.

Our success depends to a significant degree on our ability to protect our proprietary technology, methodologies, know-how, and brand. We rely on a combination of trademarks, copyrights, patents, trade secret laws, contractual restrictions, and other intellectual property laws and confidentiality procedures to establish and protect our proprietary rights. However, our competitors or other third parties could reverse engineering our code and use it to create software and service offerings that compete with ours. While software can, in some cases, be protected under copyright law, in order to bring a copyright infringement lawsuit in the United States, the copyright must first be registered. We have chosen not to register any copyrights, and rely on trade secret protection in addition to unregistered copyrights to protect our proprietary software. Accordingly, the remedies and damages available to us for unauthorized use of our software may be limited.

Further, the steps we take to protect our intellectual property and proprietary rights may be inadequate. We may not be able to register our intellectual property rights in all jurisdictions where we conduct or anticipate conducting business, and may experience conflicts with third parties who contest our applications to register our intellectual property. Even if registered or issued, we cannot guarantee that our trademarks, patents, copyrights or other intellectual property or proprietary rights will be of sufficient scope or strength to provide us with any meaningful protection or commercial advantage. We will not be able to protect our intellectual property and proprietary rights if we are unable to enforce our rights or if we do not detect infringement, misappropriation, dilution or other unauthorized use or violation thereof. If we fail to defend and protect our intellectual property rights adequately, our competitors and other third parties may gain access to our proprietary technology, information and know-how, reverse-engineer our software, and infringe upon or dilute the value of our brand, and our business may be harmed. In addition, obtaining, maintaining, defending, and enforcing our intellectual property rights might entail significant expense. Any patents, trademarks, copyrights, or other intellectual property rights that we have or may obtain may be challenged by others or invalidated through administrative process or litigation. Even if we continue to seek patent protection in the future, we may be unable to obtain further patent protection for our technology. In addition, any patents issued in the future may not provide us with competitive advantages, may be designed around by our competitors, or may be successfully challenged by third parties. Furthermore, legal standards relating to the validity, enforceability, and scope of protection of intellectual property rights are uncertain.

We may be unable to prevent third parties from acquiring domain names or trademarks that are similar to, infringe upon, dilute or diminish the value of our trademarks and other proprietary rights. Additionally, our trademarks may be opposed, otherwise challenged or declared invalid, unenforceable or generic, or determined to be infringing on or dilutive of other marks. We may not be able to protect our rights in these trademarks, which we need in order to build name recognition with customers. If third parties succeed in registering or developing common law rights in such trademarks and we are not successful in challenging such third-party rights, or if our trademark rights are successfully challenged, we may not be able to use our trademarks to commercialize our products in certain relevant jurisdictions.

Despite our precautions, it may be possible for unauthorized third parties to copy our products and use information that we regard as proprietary to create offerings that compete with ours. Effective patent, trademark, copyright, and trade secret protection may not be available to us in every country in which our products are available. The laws of some countries may not be as protective of intellectual property rights as those in the United States, and mechanisms for enforcement of intellectual property rights may be inadequate. As we continue to expand our international activities, our exposure to unauthorized copying and use of our products and proprietary information will likely increase. Accordingly, despite our efforts, we may be unable to prevent third parties from infringing upon, diluting, misappropriating or otherwise violating our intellectual property rights.

We have devoted substantial resources to the development of our technology, business operations and business plans. We attempt to protect our intellectual property and proprietary information, including trade secrets, by implementing administrative, technical and physical practices, including source code access controls, to secure our proprietary information. We also seek to enter into confidentiality, non-compete, proprietary, and inventions assignment agreements with our employees, consultants and contractors, and enter into confidentiality agreements with other parties, such as licensees and customers. However, such agreements may not be self-executing, and there can be no guarantee that all applicable parties have executed such agreements. No assurance can be given that these practices or agreements will be effective in controlling access to and distribution of our proprietary information, or in providing adequate remedies in the event of unauthorized access or distribution, especially in certain states and countries, including Israel and Russia, that are less willing to enforce such agreements or otherwise provide protection for trade secrets. Further, these agreements may not prevent our competitors from independently developing technologies that are substantially equivalent or superior to our products, and in such cases we would not be able to assert trade secret rights against such parties. We also employ individuals who were previously employed at other companies in our field, and our efforts to ensure that such individuals do not use the proprietary information or know-how of others in their work for us may not prevent others from claiming that we or our employees or independent contractors have used or disclosed intellectual property, including trade secrets or other proprietary information, of a former employer or other third parties. Litigation may be necessary to defend against any such claims. If we are unsuccessful in defending against any such claims, we may be liable for damages or prevented from using certain intellectual property, which in turn could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations; even if we are successful in defending against such claims, litigation could result in substantial costs and distract management and other employees.

In order to protect our intellectual property and proprietary rights and to monitor for and take action against any infringement, misappropriation or other violations thereof, we may be required to spend significant resources. Litigation may be necessary to enforce and protect our trade secrets and other intellectual property and proprietary rights, which could be costly, time-consuming, and distracting to management, and could result in the impairment or loss of portions of our intellectual property. Further, our efforts to enforce our intellectual property and proprietary rights may be met with defenses, counterclaims, and countersuits attacking the ownership, scope, validity and enforceability of such rights. Our inability to protect our proprietary technology or our brand against unauthorized copying or use, as well as any costly litigation or diversion of our management’s attention and resources, could delay further sales or the implementation of our offerings or impair their functionality, delay introductions of new offerings, result in our substituting inferior or more costly technologies into our offerings, or injure our reputation. Any of the foregoing could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects.

In recent years, there has been significant litigation involving patents and other intellectual property and proprietary rights in the software industry. Our competitors and others may now and in the future have significantly larger and more mature patent portfolios than we have. Even a large patent portfolio may not serve as a deterrent to litigation by certain third parties, some of whose sole or primary business is to assert patent claims and some of whom have sent letters to and/or filed suit alleging infringement against us or some of our customers. We could incur substantial costs in prosecuting or defending any intellectual property litigation. If we sue to enforce our rights or are sued by a third party claiming that our offerings infringe, misappropriate or violate their rights, the litigation could be expensive and could divert management attention and resources away from our core business operations. In addition, there could be public announcements of the results of hearings, motions or other interim proceedings or developments, and if securities analysts or investors perceive these results to be negative, it could have a material adverse effect on the price of our ordinary shares.

Any intellectual property litigation to which we might become a party, or for which we are required to provide indemnification, may require us to do one or more of the following:

If we are required to make substantial payments or undertake or suffer any of the other actions and consequences noted above as a result of any intellectual property infringement, misappropriation or violation claims against us or any obligation to indemnify our customers for such claims, such payments, actions and consequences could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects.

We could incur substantial costs and otherwise suffer harm as a result of patent royalty claims, in particular patents related to the implementation of image and video standards

Our products and services decode and encode media files which are compressed using compression methods that are standardized by international standard bodies such as ISO and ITU. These standard compression methods include, for example, JPEG and HEIC for images, and H.264, HEVC, EVC and VVC for video. Some of the algorithms included in these image and video compression standards are covered by patents which are licensed by patent pools, such as MPEG-LA, Access Advance and Velos Media, and by independent patent holders. Depending on the use case and application of these image and video standards in our products and services, we may be required to pay patent royalties to such patent pools and independent patent holders, which might affect our margins and our profitability. Historically, almost all of our products and services have not required such patent royalty payment however as we expand our SaaS offering, we expect to pay such patent royalties in the future. In addition, in order to avoid paying patent royalties, some of our customers may opt to use open source compression standards such as VP9 or AV1, which in turn would require us to support such standards in our products and services, causing additional product development costs due to this fragmentation.

Indemnity provisions in various agreements potentially expose us to substantial liability for intellectual property infringement, misappropriation, violation, and other losses.

Our agreements with customers and other third parties may include indemnification provisions under which we agree to indemnify them for losses suffered or incurred as a result of claims of intellectual property infringement, misappropriation or violation, damages caused by us to property or persons, or other liabilities relating to or arising from our software, services or other contractual obligations. Large indemnity payments could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Although we normally seek to contractually limit our liability with respect to such indemnity obligations, we do not and may not in the future have a cap on our liability in certain agreements, which could result in substantial liability. Substantial indemnity payments under such agreements could harm our business, financial condition and results of operations. Any dispute with a customer or other third party with respect to such obligations could have adverse effects on our relationship with that customer, other existing customers and new customers, and other parties, and could harm our reputation, business, financial condition and results of operations.

Components of our offerings include various types of software and services licensed from unaffiliated parties. If any of the software or services we license from others or functional equivalents thereof were either no longer available to us or no longer offered on commercially reasonable terms, we would be required to either redesign the offerings that include such software or services to function with software or services available from other parties or develop these components ourselves, which we may not be able to do without incurring increased costs, experiencing delays in our product launches and the release of new offerings, or at all. Furthermore, we might be forced to temporarily limit the features available in our current or future products and solutions. If we fail to maintain or renegotiate any of these software or service licenses, we could face significant delays and diversion of resources in attempting to license and integrate functional equivalents. We and our customers may also be subject to suits by parties claiming infringement, misappropriation or other violation of third-party intellectual property or proprietary rights due to the reliance by our solutions on such third-party software and services, such third-party software and services may contain bugs or other errors that cause our own offerings to malfunction, and our agreements with such third parties may not contain any, or adequate, warranties, indemnities or other protective provisions on our behalf. Any of the foregoing could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Changes in laws and regulations related to the internet, changes in the internet infrastructure itself, or increases in the cost of internet connectivity and network access may diminish the demand for our offerings and could harm our business.

The future success of our business depends upon the continued use of the internet as a primary medium for commerce, communication, and business applications. Federal, state, or foreign governmental bodies or agencies have in the past adopted, and may in the future adopt, laws or regulations affecting the use of the internet as a commercial medium. The adoption of any laws or regulations that could reduce the growth, popularity, or use of the internet, including laws or practices limiting internet neutrality, could decrease the demand for our offerings, increase our cost of doing business, and adversely affect our results of operations. Changes in these laws or regulations could require us to modify our offerings, or certain aspects of our offerings, in order to comply with these changes. In addition, government agencies or private organizations have imposed and may impose additional taxes, fees, or other charges for accessing the internet or commerce conducted via the internet. These laws or charges could limit the growth of internet-related commerce or communications generally or result in reductions in the demand for internet-based products such as ours. In addition, the use of the internet as a business tool could be harmed due to delays in the development or adoption of new standards and protocols to handle increased demands of internet activity, security, reliability, cost, ease-of-use, accessibility, and quality of service. Further, our platform depends on the quality of our customers’ and end users’ access to the internet.

On June 11, 2018, the repeal of the “net neutrality” rules of the Federal Communications Commission, or the FCC, took effect and returned to a “light-touch” regulatory framework. The prior rules were designed to ensure that all online content is treated the same by internet service providers and other companies that provide broadband services. Additionally, on September 30, 2018, California enacted the California Internet Consumer Protection and Net Neutrality Act of 2018, making California the fourth state to enact a state-level net neutrality law since the FCC repealed its nationwide regulations, mandating that all broadband services in California must be provided in accordance with state net neutrality requirements. The U.S. Department of Justice has sued to block the law going into effect, and California has agreed to delay enforcement until the resolution of the FCC’s repeal of the federal rules. A number of other states are considering legislation or executive actions that would regulate the conduct of broadband providers. We cannot predict whether the FCC order or state initiatives will be modified, overturned, or vacated by legal action of the court, federal legislation or the FCC. With the repeal of net neutrality rules in effect, we could incur greater operating expenses, which could harm our results of operations.

As the internet continues to experience growth in the number of users, frequency of use, and amount of data transmitted, the internet infrastructure that we and our customers and end users rely on may be unable to support the demands placed upon it. The failure of the internet infrastructure that we or our customers and end users rely on, even for a short period of time, could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, the performance of the internet and its acceptance as a business tool has been harmed by “viruses,” “worms” and similar malicious programs and the internet has experienced a variety of outages and other delays as a result of damage to portions of its infrastructure. If the use of the internet is adversely affected by these issues, demand for our offerings could decline.

Internet access is frequently provided by companies that have significant market power and the ability to take actions that degrade, disrupt, or increase the cost of user access to our offerings. As demand for online media increases, there can be no assurance that internet and network service providers will continue to price their network access services on reasonable terms. The distribution of online media requires delivery of digital content files and providers of network access and distribution may change their business models and increase their prices significantly, which could slow the widespread adoption of such services. We could incur greater operating expenses and our customer acquisition and retention could be negatively impacted if network operators:

In order for our services to be successful, there must be a reasonable price model in place to allow for the continuous distribution of digital media files. We have limited or no control over the extent to which any of these circumstances may occur, and if network access or distribution prices rise, our business, financial condition and results of operations would likely be adversely affected.

Failure to comply with anti-bribery, anti-corruption, anti-money laundering laws, and similar laws, could subject us to penalties and other adverse consequences.

We are subject to the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended, or the FCPA, the U.S. domestic bribery statute contained in 18 U.S.C. § 201, the U.S. Travel Act, the USA PATRIOT Act, Chapter 9 (sub-chapter 5) of the Israeli Criminal Law, 5737-1977, the Israeli Prohibition on Money Laundering Law, 5760-2000 and other anti-bribery and anti-money laundering laws in countries outside of the United States in which we conduct our activities, such as Russia. Anti-corruption and anti-bribery laws have been enforced aggressively in recent years and are interpreted broadly to generally prohibit companies, their employees, and their third-party intermediaries from authorizing, offering, or providing, directly or indirectly, improper payments or benefits to recipients in the public or private sector.

We sometimes leverage third parties to sell our offerings and conduct our business abroad. We and our third-party intermediaries may have direct or indirect interactions with officials and employees of government agencies or state-owned or affiliated entities and may be held liable for the corrupt or other illegal activities of these third-party business partners and intermediaries, our employees, representatives, contractors, partners, and agents, even if we do not explicitly authorize such activities. We cannot assure you that our employees and agents will not take actions in violation of applicable law, for which we may be ultimately held responsible. As we increase our international sales and business operations, our risks under these laws are likely to increase.

Any actual or alleged violation of the FCPA or other applicable anti-bribery, anti-corruption or anti-money laundering laws could result in whistleblower complaints, sanctions, settlements, prosecution, enforcement actions, fines, damages, adverse media coverage, investigations, loss of export privileges, severe criminal or civil sanctions, or suspension or debarment from U.S. government contracts, any of which would adversely affect our reputation, as well as our business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects. Responding to any investigation or action would likely result in a materially significant diversion of management’s attention and resources and significant defense costs and other professional fees. In addition, the U.S. government may seek to hold us liable for successor liability for FCPA violations committed by companies in which we invest or that we acquire.

Changes in financial accounting standards or practices may cause adverse, unexpected financial reporting fluctuations and affect our results of operations.

The accounting rules and regulations that we must comply with are complex and subject to interpretation by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or the FASB, the SEC and various bodies formed to promulgate and interpret appropriate accounting principles. Recent actions and public comments from the FASB and the SEC have focused on the integrity of financial reporting and internal controls. In addition, many companies’ accounting policies are being subject to heightened scrutiny by regulators and the public. Further, the accounting rules and regulations are continually changing in ways that could materially impact our financial statements.

We cannot predict the impact of future changes to accounting principles or our accounting policies on our financial statements going forward, which could have a significant effect on our reported financial results and could affect the reporting of transactions completed before the announcement of the change. In addition, if we were to change our critical accounting estimates, including those related to the recognition of subscription revenue and other revenue sources, our operating results could be significantly affected.

Changes in U.S. and foreign tax laws could have a material adverse effect on our business, cash flow, results of operations or financial conditions.

We are subject to taxation in several countries, including the United States and Israel; changes in tax laws or challenges to our tax positions could adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition. As such, we are subject to tax laws, regulations, and policies of the U.S. federal, state, and local governments and of comparable taxing authorities in foreign jurisdictions. Changes in tax laws, including the U.S. federal tax legislation enacted in 2017, commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, as well as other factors, could cause us to experience fluctuations in our tax obligations and effective tax rates in the future and otherwise adversely affect our tax positions and/or our tax liabilities. There can be no assurance that our effective tax rates, tax payments, tax credits, or incentives will not be adversely affected by changes in tax laws in various jurisdictions.

The Biden administration has proposed a number of changes to the U.S. tax system. The proposals include changes that would increase U.S. corporate tax rates, impose a corporate minimum book tax, and double the tax rate on and make other tax changes to “global intangible low-taxed income” earned by foreign subsidiaries. Many aspects of the proposals are unclear or undeveloped. We are unable to predict which, if any, U.S. tax reform proposals will be enacted into law, and what effects any enacted legislation might have on our liability for U.S. tax.

Unanticipated changes in effective tax rates or adverse outcomes resulting from examination of our income or other tax returns could expose us to greater than anticipated tax liabilities.

The tax laws applicable to our business, including the laws of the United States, Israel, Russia, and other jurisdictions, are subject to interpretation, and certain jurisdictions may aggressively interpret their laws in an effort to raise additional tax revenue. The taxing authorities of the jurisdictions in which we operate may challenge our methodologies for valuing developed technology or intercompany arrangements or our revenue recognition policies, which could increase our worldwide effective tax rate and adversely affect our financial position and results of operations. It is possible that tax authorities may disagree with certain positions we have taken, and any adverse outcome of such a review or audit could have a negative effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Further, the determination of our worldwide provision for income taxes and other tax liabilities requires significant judgment by management, and there are transactions where the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. Although we believe that our estimates are reasonable, the ultimate tax outcome may differ from the amounts recorded in our consolidated financial statements and may materially affect our financial results in the period or periods for which such determination is made.

Based on our current corporate structure, we are subject to taxation in several jurisdictions around the world with increasingly complex tax laws, the application of which can be uncertain. The amount of taxes we pay in these jurisdictions could increase substantially as a result of changes in the applicable tax principles, including increased tax rates, new tax laws or revised interpretations of existing tax laws and precedents. The authorities in these jurisdictions could review our tax returns or require us to file tax returns in jurisdictions in which we are not currently filing, and could impose additional tax, interest, and penalties. These authorities could also claim that various withholding requirements apply to us or our subsidiaries, assert that benefits of tax treaties are not available to us or our subsidiaries, or challenge our methodologies for valuing developed technology or intercompany arrangements, including our transfer pricing. The relevant taxing authorities may determine that the manner in which we operate our business does not achieve the intended tax consequences. If such a disagreement were to occur, and our position was not sustained, we could be required to pay additional taxes, interest, and penalties. Such authorities could claim that various withholding requirements apply to us or our subsidiaries or assert that benefits of tax treaties are not available to us or our subsidiaries. Any increase in the amount of taxes we pay or that are imposed on us could increase our worldwide effective tax rate and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We could be required to collect additional sales, use, value added, digital services or other similar taxes or be subject to other liabilities that may increase the costs our customers would have to pay for our offerings and adversely affect our results of operations.

We could be required to collect sales, value added and other similar taxes in a number of jurisdictions. One or more U.S. states or countries may seek to impose incremental or new sales, use, value added, digital services, or other tax collection obligations on us. Further, an increasing number of U.S. states have considered or adopted laws that attempt to impose tax collection obligations on out-of-state companies. Additionally, the Supreme Court of the United States has ruled that online sellers can be required to collect sales and use tax despite not having a physical presence in the state of the customer. As a result, U.S. states and local governments may adopt, or begin to enforce, laws requiring us to calculate, collect, and remit taxes on sales in their jurisdictions, even if we have no physical presence in that jurisdiction. A successful assertion by one or more U.S. states requiring us to collect taxes where we presently do not do so, or to collect more taxes in a jurisdiction in which we currently do collect some taxes, could result in substantial liabilities, including taxes on past sales, as well as interest and penalties. Furthermore, certain jurisdictions, such as the United Kingdom and France, have recently introduced a digital services tax, which is generally a tax on gross revenue generated from users or customers located in those jurisdictions, and other jurisdictions have enacted or are considering enacting similar laws. A successful assertion that we should have been or should currently be collecting additional sales, use, value added, digital services or other similar taxes in a particular jurisdiction could, among other things, result in substantial tax payments, create significant administrative burdens for us, discourage potential customers from subscribing to our platform due to the incremental cost of any such sales or other related taxes, or otherwise adversely affect our business.

Political, economic and military conditions in Israel could materially and adversely affect our business.

We have offices in Herzeliya, near Tel Aviv, Israel where our primary operations, research and development, and certain other finance activities are based. In addition, a number of our officers and directors, as well as our founder, are residents of Israel. As of February, 2023, we had seven full-time and part-time employees in Israel. Accordingly, political, economic and military conditions in Israel and the surrounding region may directly affect our business and operations. Since the establishment of the State of Israel in 1948, a number of armed conflicts have taken place between Israel and its neighboring countries, as well as terrorist acts committed within Israel by hostile elements. In recent years, Israel has been engaged in sporadic armed conflicts with Hamas, an Islamist terrorist group that controls the Gaza Strip, with Hezbollah, an Islamist terrorist group that controls large portions of southern Lebanon, and with Iranian-backed military forces in Syria. In addition, Iran has threatened to attack Israel and may be developing nuclear weapons. Some of these hostilities were accompanied by missiles being fired against civilian targets in various parts of Israel, including areas in which our employees, and some of our consultants are located, and negatively affected business conditions in Israel. Any hostilities, armed conflicts, terrorist activities involving Israel or the interruption or curtailment of trade between Israel and its trading partners, or any political instability in the region could adversely affect business conditions and our results of operations and could make it more difficult for us to raise capital. Parties with whom we do business have sometimes declined to travel to Israel during periods of heightened unrest or tension, forcing us to make alternative arrangements when necessary in order to meet our business partners face to face. In addition, the political and security situation in Israel may result in parties with whom we have agreements involving performance in Israel claiming that they are not obligated to perform their commitments under those agreements pursuant to force majeure provisions in such agreements.

Continued hostilities between Israel and its neighbors and any future armed conflict, terrorist activity or political instability in the region could adversely affect our operations in Israel and adversely affect the market price of our ordinary shares. An escalation of tensions or violence might result in a significant downturn in the economic or financial condition of Israel, which could have a material adverse effect on our operations in Israel and our business.

Our commercial insurance does not cover losses that may occur as a result of events associated with war and terrorism. Although the Israeli government currently covers the reinstatement value of direct damages that are caused by terrorist attacks or acts of war, we cannot assure you that this government coverage will be maintained or that it will sufficiently cover our potential damages. Any losses or damages incurred by us could have a material adverse effect on our business. Any armed conflicts or political instability in the region would likely negatively affect business conditions and could adversely affect our results of operations.

Further, in the past, the State of Israel and Israeli companies have been subjected to economic boycotts. Several countries still restrict business with the State of Israel and with Israeli companies. These restrictive laws and policies may have an adverse impact on our operating results, financial condition or the expansion of our business. A campaign of boycotts, divestment and sanctions has been undertaken against Israel, which could also adversely impact our business.

Israel’s most recent general elections were held on April 9, 2019, September 17, 2019, March 2, 2020, March 23, 2021 and November 1, 2022. In addition, proposed judicial reform has sparked widespread protests across Israel. Uncertainty surrounding future elections and the outcome of the judicial reform in Israel may continue and the political situation in Israel may further deteriorate. Actual or perceived political instability in Israel or any negative changes in the political environment, may individually or in the aggregate adversely affect the Israeli economy and, in turn, our business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects.

Our operations could be disrupted as a result of the obligation of certain of our personnel residing in Israel to perform military service.

Many of our officers and employees reside in Israel and may be required to perform annual military reserve duty. Currently, all male adult citizens and permanent residents of Israel under the age of 40 (or older, depending on their position with the Israeli Defense Forces reserves), unless exempt, are obligated to perform military reserve duty annually and are subject to being called to active duty at any time under emergency circumstances. Our operations could be disrupted by the absence for a significant period of one or more of our key officers and employees due to military service. Any such disruption could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We may not be able to enforce covenants not-to-compete under current Israeli law.

We have non-competition agreements with most of our employees, many of which are governed by Israeli law. These agreements generally prohibit our employees from competing with us or working for our competitors for a specified period following termination of their employment. However, Israeli courts are reluctant to enforce non-compete undertakings of former employees and tend, if at all, to enforce those provisions for relatively brief periods of time in restricted geographical areas and only when the employee has unique value specific to that employer’s business and not just regarding the professional development of the employee. Any such inability to enforce non-compete covenants may cause us to lose any competitive advantage resulting from advantages provided to us by such confidential information.

We may become subject to claims for remuneration or royalties for assigned service invention rights by our employees and consultants, which could result in litigation and would adversely affect our business.

A significant portion of our intellectual property has been developed by our employees and consultants in the course of their engagement with us. Under the Israeli Patent Law, 5727-1967, or the Patent Law, inventions conceived by an employee during the scope of his or her employment relationship with a company are regarded as “service inventions,” which belong to the employer, absent a specific agreement stating otherwise. The Patent Law also provides that absent an agreement providing otherwise, the Israeli Compensation and Royalties Committee, or the Committee, a body constituted under the Patent Law, shall determine whether the employee is entitled to remuneration for his or her inventions. Case law clarifies that the right to receive consideration for “service inventions” can be waived by the employee and that such waiver does not necessarily have to be explicit. The Committee will examine, on a case-by-case basis, the general contractual framework between the parties, using interpretation rules of the general Israeli contract laws. Further, the Committee has not yet determined one specific formula for calculating this remuneration, but rather uses the criteria specified in the Patent Law. Although we generally seek to enter into assignment-of-invention agreements with our employees and consultants pursuant to which such individuals assign to us all rights to any inventions created in the scope of their employment or engagement with us, we cannot guarantee that all such agreements are self-executing or have been entered into by all applicable individuals. Even when such agreements include provisions regarding the assignment and waiver of rights to additional compensation in respect of inventions created within the course of their employment or consulting relationship with us, including in respect of service inventions, we cannot guarantee that such provisions will be upheld by Israeli courts, as a result of uncertainty under Israeli law with respect to the efficacy of such provisions. We may face claims demanding remuneration in consideration for assigned inventions, which could require us to pay additional remuneration or royalties to our current and former employees and consultants, or be forced to litigate such claims, which could negatively affect our business.

It may be difficult for investors in the United States to enforce any judgments obtained against us or some of our directors or officers.

The majority of our assets are located outside the U.S. In addition, our officers are nationals and/or residents of countries other than the U.S., and all or a substantial portion of such persons’ assets are located outside the U.S. As a result, it may be difficult for investors to enforce within the United States any judgments obtained against us or any of our non-U.S. officers, including judgments predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the U.S. or any state thereof. Additionally, it may be difficult to assert U.S. securities law claims in actions originally instituted outside of the U.S. Israeli courts may refuse to hear a U.S. securities law claim because Israeli courts may not be the most appropriate forums in which to bring such a claim. Even if an Israeli court agrees to hear a claim, it may determine that the Israeli law, and not U.S. law, is applicable to the claim. Further, if U.S. law is found to be applicable, certain content of applicable U.S. law must be proved as a fact, which can be a time-consuming and costly process, and certain matters of procedure would still be governed by the Israeli law. Consequently, you may be effectively prevented from pursuing remedies under U.S. federal and state securities laws against us or any of our non-U.S. directors or officers.

Our amended and restated articles of association provide that, unless we consent to an alternative forum, the federal district courts of the United States shall be the exclusive forum for resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act, and under the Courts Law 5744-1984 [consolidated version] (“Courts Law”) the competent courts of Tel Aviv, Israel, shall be the exclusive forum for resolution of substantially all disputes between the Company and its shareholders under the Companies Law and the Israeli Securities Law, which could limit our shareholders’ ability to choose the judicial forum for disputes with us, our directors, shareholders, or other employees.

Section 22 of the Securities Act creates concurrent jurisdiction for U.S. federal and state courts over all such Securities Act actions. Accordingly, both U.S. state and federal courts have jurisdiction to entertain such claims. To prevent having to litigate claims in multiple jurisdictions and the threat of inconsistent or contrary rulings by different courts, among other considerations, our amended and restated articles of association provide that, unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the federal district courts of the United States shall be the exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act. This exclusive forum provision will not apply to suits brought to enforce any liability or duty created by the Exchange Act, and our shareholders cannot and will not be deemed to have waived our compliance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder as a result of our exclusive forum provision.

Under the Courts Law, the competent courts of Tel Aviv, Israel, is the exclusive forum for the resolution of (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of the Company, (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach of fiduciary duty owed by any director, officer or other employee of the Company to the Company or the Company’s shareholders, or (iii) any action asserting a claim arising pursuant to any provision of the Companies Law or the Israeli Securities Law, 1968, or the Israeli Securities Law. Such exclusive forum provision is intended to apply to claims arising under Israeli law and does not apply to claims for which the federal courts would have exclusive jurisdiction, whether by law or pursuant to our amended and restated articles of association, as described above.

Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in any of our securities shall be deemed to have notice of and consented to the foregoing provisions of our amended and restated articles of association. However, the enforceability of similar forum provisions (including exclusive federal forum provisions for actions, suits, or proceedings asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act) in other companies’ organizational documents has been challenged in legal proceedings, and there is uncertainty as to whether courts would enforce the exclusive forum provisions in our amended and restated articles of association. If a court were to find the exclusive forum provisions contained in our amended and restated articles of association to be inapplicable or unenforceable in an action, we may incur additional costs associated with resolving such action in other jurisdictions, which could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Although we believe these exclusive forum provisions benefit us by providing increased consistency in the application of U.S. federal securities laws or the Companies Law, as applicable, in the types of lawsuits to which they apply, such exclusive forum provisions may limit a shareholder’s ability to bring a claim in the judicial forum of their choosing for disputes with us or any of our directors, shareholders, officers, or other employees, which may discourage lawsuits with respect to such claims against us and our current and former directors, shareholders, officers, or other employees.

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and sanctions brought against Russia could disrupt our software development operations in Russia.

In addition to our U.S. and Israel operations, we have operations in Russia through our wholly owned subsidiary, Beamr Imaging RU, and may expand international operations and development in the future. Specifically, we undertake some of our software development and design, quality assurance, and support in Russia using personnel located there. While a majority of our developers are located in Russia, our research and development leadership is located in Israel.

On February 24, 2022, Russia invaded Ukraine. The outbreak of hostilities between the two countries could result in more widespread conflict and could have a severe adverse effect on the region. Following Russia’s actions, various countries, including the U.S., Canada, the United Kingdom, Germany and France, as well as the European Union, issued broad-ranging economic sanctions against Russia. Such sanctions included, among other things, a prohibition on doing business with certain Russian companies, officials and citizens; a commitment by certain countries and the European Union to remove selected Russian banks from the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunications (SWIFT) electronic banking network that connects banks globally; and restrictive measures to prevent the Russian Central Bank from undermining the impact of the sanctions. In response to sanctions, the Russian Central Bank raised its interest rates and banned sales of local securities by foreigners. Russia may take additional counter measures or retaliatory actions in the future. The continuation of these hostilities may result in additional economic and other sanctions against Russia. The potential impact of the conflict and any resulting bans, sanctions and boycotts on companies doing business in Russia is currently uncertain due to the fluid nature of the conflict as it is unfolding and has the potential to result in broadened military actions. The duration of ongoing hostilities and such sanctions and related events cannot be predicted. Uncertainty as to future relations between Russia and the U.S. and other countries in the west, or between Russia and other eastern European countries, may have a negative impact on our operations.

We do not operate in any sectors of the Russian economy that have been targeted by U.S. or EU sanctions and have no reason to believe that we would be targeted by any sanctions in the future. Nonetheless such sanctions and potential responses to such sanctions, including those that may limit or restrict transfer funds into Russia, may in the future significantly affect our ability to pay our personnel based in Russia. In response, we have begun to partially implement a business continuity plan in order to address risks related to the conflict on our personnel, operations and product development that includes alternative payment solutions for personnel in Russia and relocation of certain personnel to territories outside Russia and Belarus on short notice.

Our operations and presence in Russia is limited. We have no manufacturing operations in Russia and we do not sell any products in Russia and as a consequence we have not derived any revenues from there. To date, none of our investors expressed concern with respect to our operations in Russia and none of our customers terminated or downsized their engagement with us as a result of such operations. Our employees in Russia have not to date experienced any change in their daily ability to perform their tasks. We do not expect Russia or another government to nationalize our assets or operations in Russia. In particular, our primary asset is software that are stored outside of Russia and our products and services are all delivered outside of Russia. In addition, we believe that if we needed to, we would be able to recruit personnel outside Russia without any material interruption to our operations. As a result, we believe that if nationalization were to occur, any impact on our financial statements would be immaterial. Nevertheless, we cannot predict the progress or outcome of the situation in Ukraine, as the conflict and governmental reactions are rapidly developing and beyond our control.

Political, military conditions or other risks in Russia could adversely affect our business.

Russia is a federative state consisting of 85 constituent entities, or “subjects.” The Russian Constitution reserves some governmental powers for the Russian Government, some for the subjects and some for areas of joint competence. In addition, eight “federal districts” (“federal’nye okruga”), which are overseen by a plenipotentiary representative of the President, supplement the country’s federal system. The delineation of authority among and within the subjects is, in many instances, unclear and contested, particularly with respect to the division of tax revenues and authority over regulatory matters. For these reasons, the Russian political system is vulnerable to tension and conflict between federal, subject and local authorities. This tension creates uncertainties in the operating environment in Russia, which may prevent us from carrying out our strategy effectively. The risks associated with these events or potential events could materially and adversely affect the investment environment and overall consumer and entrepreneurial confidence in Russia, and our business, prospects, financial condition, hiring ability, and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

Furthermore, high levels of corruption reportedly exist in Russia, including the bribing of officials for the purpose of initiating investigations by government agencies. Corruption and other illegal activities could disrupt our ability to conduct our business effectively, and claims that the we are involved in such corruption or illegal activities could generate negative publicity, of which could harm our development, financial condition, results of operations or prospects.

Operating a business in an emerging market such as Russia can involve a greater degree of risk than operating a business in more developed markets.

Over the last two decades, the Russian economy has experienced or continues to experience at various times:

The Russian economy has been subject to abrupt downturns in the past, including as a result of the invasion of Ukraine, global financial crisis, and, as an emerging market, remains particularly vulnerable to further external shocks and any future fluctuations in the global markets. Any further deterioration in the general economic conditions in Russia (whether or not as a result of the events mentioned above) could have a material adverse effect on the Russian economy and may result in hiring and operational difficulties, as well as potential flight of human capital, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, product development and results of operations.

Legal risks in Russia could materially adversely affect our operations and Russian tax legislation is subject to frequent change.

Among the risks of the Russian legal system are: inconsistencies among laws, presidential decrees, and government and ministerial orders and resolutions; conflicting local, regional and federal laws and regulations; the untested nature of the independence of the judiciary and its sensitivity to economic or political influences; substantial gaps in the regulatory structure due to the delay or absence of implementing legislation; a high degree of discretion on the part of governmental authorities; reported corruption within governmental entities and other governmental authorities; the relative inexperience of judges and courts in interpreting laws applicable to complex transactions; and the unpredictability of enforcement of foreign judgments and foreign arbitral awards. Many Russian laws and regulations are construed in a way that provides for significant administrative discretion in application and enforcement. Unlawful, selective or arbitrary actions of the Russian Government have reportedly included the denial or withdrawal of licenses, sudden and unexpected tax audits, criminal prosecutions, and civil claims. Any of the above events may have a material adverse effect on our product development and results of operations.

Despite certain improvements in the taxation system made by the Russian Government over the past decade, Russian tax legislation is still subject to frequent change, varying interpretations, and inconsistent and selective enforcement. There are currently no clear rules for distinguishing between lawful tax optimization and tax evasion. In addition, Russian tax laws do not contain detailed rules on the taxation in Russia of foreign companies. As such, taxpayers often have to resort to court proceedings to defend their position against the Russian tax authorities. However, in the absence of consistent court practice or binding precedents, there is inconsistency amongst court decisions. Further, the possibility exists that the Russian Federation would impose arbitrary or onerous taxes and penalties in the future, which could have a material adverse effect on our product development and results of operations.

The market price for our ordinary shares may be volatile or may decline regardless of our operating performance, and you may not be able to resell your shares at or above the initial public offering price.

The market price of our ordinary shares may be highly volatile and may fluctuate or decline substantially as a result of a variety of factors, many of which are beyond our control, including:

Furthermore, the stock market has experienced extreme volatility that in some cases has been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of particular companies. These and other factors may cause the market price and demand for our ordinary shares to fluctuate substantially, which may limit or prevent investors from readily selling their shares and may otherwise negatively affect the liquidity of our ordinary Shares. In addition, in the past, when the market price of a stock has been volatile, holders of that stock have sometimes instituted securities class action litigation against the company that issued the stock. If any of our shareholders were to bring a lawsuit against us, we could incur substantial costs defending the lawsuit. Such a lawsuit could also divert the time and attention of our management from our business.

No public market for our ordinary shares currently exists, and an active public trading market may not develop or be sustained following this offering.

Prior to this offering, there has been no public market for our ordinary shares. An active public trading market for our ordinary shares may not develop following the closing of this offering or, if developed, it may not be sustained. The lack of an active market may impair your ability to sell your shares at the time you wish to sell them or at a price that you consider reasonable. The initial public offering price of our ordinary shares was determined by negotiations between us and the underwriters and may not be indicative of prices that will prevail in the open market following the closing of this offering. The market price of our ordinary shares may decline below the initial public offering price, and you may not be able to resell your shares of our ordinary shares at or above the initial offering price, or at all. The lack of an active trading market may also reduce the fair value of your shares. An inactive market may also impair our ability to raise capital by selling shares of our ordinary shares and may impair our ability to acquire other companies or technologies by using our ordinary shares as consideration.

Certain recent initial public offerings of companies with public floats comparable to the anticipated public float of Beamr have experienced extreme volatility that was seemingly unrelated to the underlying performance of the respective company. We may experience similar volatility, which may make it difficult for prospective investors to assess the value of our ordinary shares.

In addition to the risks addressed above in “— The market price for our ordinary shares may be volatile or may decline regardless of our operating performance, and you may not be able to resell your shares at or above the initial public offering price,” our ordinary shares may be subject to extreme volatility that is seemingly unrelated to the underlying performance of our business. Recently, companies with comparable anticipated public floats and initial public offering sizes have experienced instances of extreme stock price run-ups followed by rapid price declines, and such stock price volatility was seemingly unrelated to the respective company’s underlying performance. Although the specific cause of such volatility is unclear, our anticipated public float may amplify the impact the actions taken by a few shareholders have on the price of our ordinary shares, which may cause our share price to deviate, potentially significantly, from a price that better reflects the underlying performance of our business. Should our ordinary shares experience run-ups and declines that are seemingly unrelated to our actual or expected operating performance and financial condition or prospects, prospective investors may have difficulty assessing the rapidly changing value of our ordinary shares. In addition, investors of our ordinary shares may experience losses, which may be material, if the price of our ordinary shares declines after this offering or if such investors purchase our ordinary shares prior to any price decline.

After this offering, our principal shareholders will continue to have significant influence over us.

After the closing of this offering, our principal shareholders each holding more than 5% of our outstanding ordinary shares will collectively beneficially own approximately 71% of our outstanding ordinary shares (or approximately 69% of our outstanding ordinary shares if the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares is exercised in full). See “Principal Shareholders.” These shareholders or their affiliates will be able to exert significant influence over us and, if acting together, will be able to control matters requiring shareholder approval, including the election of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions, including a merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of our assets and the issuance or redemption of equity interests in certain circumstances. The interests of these shareholders may not always coincide with, and in some cases may conflict with, our interests and the interests of our other shareholders. For instance, these shareholders could attempt to delay or prevent a change in control of our company, even if such change in control would benefit our other shareholders, which could deprive our shareholders of an opportunity to receive a premium for their ordinary shares. This concentration of ownership may also affect the prevailing market price of our ordinary shares due to investors’ perceptions that conflicts of interest may exist or arise. As a result, this concentration of ownership may not be in your best interests.

We will have broad discretion in the use of the net proceeds from this offering and may not use them effectively.

The principal purposes of this offering are to increase our capitalization and financial flexibility, create a public market for our ordinary shares and enable access to the public equity markets for us and our shareholders. We intend to use the net proceeds from this offering for general corporate purposes, including working capital, operating expenses and capital expenditures. Accordingly, we will have broad discretion in the application of the net proceeds from this offering, and you will not have the opportunity as part of your investment decision to assess whether such net proceeds are being used appropriately. Investors will need to rely upon the judgment of our management with respect to the use of such net proceeds. Pending their use, we may invest our proceeds in a manner that does not produce income or that loses value. Our investments may not yield a favorable return to our investors and may adversely affect the price of our ordinary shares.

You will experience immediate and substantial dilution in the net tangible book value of the ordinary shares you purchase in this offering and may experience further dilution in the future.

The initial public offering price of our ordinary shares is substantially higher than the pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value per share of our ordinary shares. If you purchase ordinary shares in this offering, you will suffer immediate dilution of $3.52 per share, representing the difference between our pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value per share as of June 30, 2022 and the initial public offering price of $4.00 per share. We also have a significant number of outstanding options to purchase shares of our ordinary shares with exercise prices that are below the initial public offering price of our ordinary shares. To the extent these options are exercised, you will experience further dilution. See the section of this prospectus titled “Dilution” for additional information.

Future sales of substantial amounts of our ordinary shares in the public markets, or the perception that such sales might occur, could reduce the price that our ordinary shares might otherwise attain.

Future sales of a substantial number of shares of our ordinary shares in the public market, particularly sales by our directors, executive officers, the Selling Shareholders and significant shareholders, or the perception that these sales could occur, could adversely affect the market price of our ordinary shares and may make it more difficult for you to sell your ordinary shares at a time and price that you deem appropriate. Upon the closing of this offering, there will be 12,882,896 ordinary shares, or 13,175,396 ordinary shares if the underwriter exercises in full the over-allotment option to purchase additional ordinary shares, based on the number of shares of our ordinary shares outstanding as of June 30, 2022 and after giving effect to a reverse share split that went into effect upon listing of our ordinary shares in this offering at a ratio of 1-for-5 and (i) 7,211,280 ordinary shares issuable upon the voluntary conversion of 36,056,400 convertible ordinary shares and convertible preferred shares and (ii) 1,142,856 ordinary shares issuable upon the automatic conversion of advance investment agreements at a conversion price equal to 80% of the initial offering price of $4.00. This includes ordinary shares that we are selling in this offering, which may be resold in the public market immediately without restriction, unless purchased by our affiliates. Other than the 1,800,000 ordinary shares held by the Selling Shareholders, substantially all of the remaining shares are currently restricted as a result of securities laws or restrictions in market stand-off provisions or the lock-up agreements described elsewhere in this prospectus under the caption “Underwriting” (which may be waived at any time, with or without notice, by ThinkEquity LLC).

In addition, following the closing of this offering we intend to register the offer and sale of all ordinary shares that we may issue from time to time under our equity compensation plans. Once we register these shares, they will be freely tradable in the public market, subject to the volume limitations under Rule 144 of the Securities Act in the case of our affiliates and the lock-up agreements or market stand-off provisions referred to above and described in the “Underwriting” and “Shares Eligible for Future Sale” sections of this prospectus.

The registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part also registers on behalf of the Selling Shareholder an aggregate of 1,800,000 ordinary shares. There are currently no agreements or understandings in place with the Selling Shareholders to restrict the sale of the Selling Shareholders’ ordinary shares registered hereby after the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. Sales of a substantial number of shares of our ordinary shares by the Selling Shareholders at such time could cause the market price of our ordinary shares to drop (possibly below the initial public offering price of the ordinary shares in this offering). The market price of our ordinary shares may drop significantly when the restrictions on resale by our other existing shareholders lapse or if there is an expectation that such a lapse of resale restrictions or registration of shares will occur. A decline in the trading price of our ordinary shares might impede our ability to raise capital through the issuance of additional shares of our ordinary shares or other equity securities and may impair your ability to sell ordinary shares at a price higher than the price you paid for them or at all.

After this offering, we will have 220,000,000 ordinary shares authorized but unissued, based on the number of ordinary shares outstanding as of the date of this prospectus, and after giving effect to a reverse share split that went into effect upon listing of our ordinary shares in this offering at a ratio of 1-for-5. Subject to compliance with applicable rules and regulations, we may issue ordinary shares or securities convertible into ordinary shares from time to time for the consideration and on the terms and conditions established by our board of directors in its sole discretion, whether in connection with a financing, acquisition, investment, our equity incentive plans or otherwise. As of the date of this prospectus, we had 1,540,741 ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding options at a weighted average exercise price of $1.77 per share, of which 1,066,068 were vested as of such date, and additional 385,779 ordinary shares reserved for future issuance under our 2015 Plan, in each case after giving effect to a reverse share split that went into effect upon listing of our ordinary shares in this offering at a ratio of 1-for-5. See “Management—Compensation.” Any additional ordinary shares that we issue, including under our 2015 Plan or other equity incentive plans that we may adopt in the future, or in connection with the exercise of our warrants, would dilute the percentage ownership and voting power held by the investors who purchase ordinary shares in this offering. In the future, we may also issue additional securities if we need to raise capital, including, but not limited to, in connection with acquisitions, which could constitute a material portion of our then-outstanding ordinary shares. Any such issuance could substantially dilute the ownership and voting power of our existing shareholders and cause the market price of our ordinary shares to decline.

Our management team has limited experience managing a public company, and the requirements of being a public company may strain our resources, divert management’s attention, and affect our ability to attract and retain qualified board members.

As a public company listed in the United States, we will incur significant additional legal, accounting, and other expenses. In addition, changing laws, regulations, and standards relating to corporate governance and public disclosure, including regulations implemented by the SEC and The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC, or the Nasdaq, may increase legal and financial compliance costs, and make some activities more time consuming. These laws, regulations and standards are subject to varying interpretations, and as a result, their application in practice may evolve over time as new guidance is provided by regulatory and governing bodies.

Most members of our management team have no experience managing a publicly traded company, interacting with public company investors, and complying with the increasingly complex laws pertaining to public companies. Our management team may not successfully or efficiently manage our transition to being a public company that is subject to significant regulatory oversight and reporting obligations under the federal securities laws and the continuous scrutiny of securities analysts and investors. Furthermore, we are committed to maintaining high standards of corporate governance and public disclosure, and our efforts to establish the corporate infrastructure required of a public company and to comply with evolving laws, regulations and standards are likely to divert management’s time and attention away from revenue-generating activities to compliance activities, which may prevent us from implementing our business strategy and growing our business. Moreover, we may not be successful in implementing these requirements. If we do not effectively and efficiently manage our transition into a public company and continue to develop and implement the right processes and tools to manage our changing enterprise and maintain our culture, our ability to compete successfully and achieve our business objectives could be impaired, which could negatively impact our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Additionally, as a public company, we may from time to time be subject to proposals by shareholders urging us to take certain corporate actions. If activist shareholder activity ensues, we may be required to incur additional costs to retain the services of professional advisors, management time and attention will be diverted from our core business operations, and perceived uncertainties as to our future direction, strategy or leadership may cause us to lose potential business opportunities and impair our brand and reputation, any of which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

In addition to increasing our legal and financial compliance costs, the additional rules and regulations described above might also make it more difficult for us to obtain certain types of insurance, including director and officer liability insurance, and we might be forced to accept reduced policy limits and coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain the same or similar coverage. As a result, it may be more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified persons to serve on our board of directors, on committees of our board of directors or as members of our senior management team.

We are an “emerging growth company” and we cannot be certain if the reduced disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies will make our ordinary shares less attractive to investors.

For so long as we remain an “emerging growth company” as defined in the JOBS Act, we may take advantage of certain exemptions from various requirements that are applicable to public companies that are not “emerging growth companies.” These provisions include, among other exemptions, that:

We may take advantage of these exemptions until the last day of our fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the closing of this offering or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We will cease to be an emerging growth company if (i) we have $1.235 billion or more in annual revenue in any fiscal year, (ii) the market value of our ordinary shares held by non-affiliates is at least $700 million as of the end of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter, or (iii) we issue more than $1.0 billion of non-convertible debt over a three-year period. We have elected to take advantage of certain of the reduced reporting and other obligations described above in the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, and intend to take advantage of reduced reporting requirements in the future for so long as we are able to do so. The JOBS Act also permits an emerging growth company like us to delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have elected not to use this extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards.

We cannot predict if investors will find our ordinary shares less attractive because we may rely on these exemptions. If some investors find our ordinary shares less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our ordinary shares and our stock price may decline or be more volatile.

We do not anticipate paying dividends on our ordinary shares in the foreseeable future. As a result, your ability to achieve a return on your investment will depend on appreciation in the price of our ordinary shares.

We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our ordinary shares and do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our ordinary shares in the foreseeable future. We anticipate that we will retain all of our available funds and any future earnings for use in the operation and expansion of our business and the repayment of outstanding debt. Any future determination as to the payment of cash dividends will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend on, among other things, our business prospects, financial condition, results of operations, current and anticipated cash needs and availability, industry trends and other factors that our board of directors may consider to be relevant. Our ability to pay cash dividends on our ordinary shares in the future may also be limited by the terms of any preferred securities we may issue or financial and other covenants in any instruments or agreements governing any additional indebtedness we may incur in the future. Consequently, investors who purchase ordinary shares in this offering may be unable to realize a return on their investment except by selling sell such shares after price appreciation, which may never occur. Our inability or decision not to pay dividends, particularly when others in our industry have elected to do so, could also adversely affect the market price of our ordinary shares.

There can be no assurance that we will not be classified as a passive foreign investment company, which could result in adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences to U.S. Holders of our ordinary shares.

We would be classified as a passive foreign investment company, or PFIC, for any taxable year if, after the application of certain look-through rules, either: (i) 75% or more of our gross income for such year is “passive income” (as defined in the relevant provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code), or (ii) 50% or more of the value of our assets (generally determined on the basis of a quarterly average) during such year is attributable to assets that produce or are held for the production of passive income. For these purposes, cash and other assets readily convertible into cash or that do or could generate passive income are categorized as passive assets, and the value of goodwill and other unbooked intangible assets is generally taken into account. Passive income generally includes, among other things, rents, dividends, interest, royalties, gains from the disposition of passive assets and gains from commodities and securities transactions. For purposes of this test, we will be treated as owning a proportionate share of the assets and earning a proportionate share of the income of any other corporation of which we own, directly or indirectly, at least 25% (by value) of the stock. Based on our market capitalization and the composition of our income, assets and operations, we do not expect to be a PFIC for United States federal income tax purposes for the current taxable year or in the foreseeable future. However, this is a factual determination that must be made annually after the close of each taxable year. Moreover, the value of our assets for purposes of the PFIC determination may be determined by reference to the public price of our ordinary shares, which could fluctuate significantly. In addition, it is possible that the Internal Revenue Service may take a contrary position with respect to our determination in any particular year, and therefore, there can be no assurance that we will not be classified as a PFIC in the current taxable year or in the future. Certain adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences could apply to a U.S. Holder (as defined in “U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations”) if we are treated as a PFIC for any taxable year during which such U.S. Holder holds our ordinary shares. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors about the potential application of the PFIC rules to their investment in our ordinary shares. For further discussion, see “Taxation—U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations—Passive Foreign Investment Companies.”

If a United States person is treated as owning at least 10% of our ordinary shares, such holder may be subject to adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences.

If a United States person is treated as owning (directly, indirectly, or constructively) at least 10% of the value or voting power of our ordinary shares, such person may be treated as a “United States shareholder” with respect to each controlled foreign corporation, or CFC, in our group (if any). Because our group includes a U.S. subsidiary, certain of our non-U.S. subsidiaries will be treated as CFCs (regardless of whether or not we are treated as a CFC). A United States shareholder of a CFC may be required to report annually and include in its U.S. taxable income its pro rata share of “Subpart F income,” “global intangible low-taxed income,” and investments in U.S. property by CFCs, regardless of whether we make any distributions. An individual that is a United States shareholder with respect to a CFC generally would not be allowed certain tax deductions or foreign tax credits that would be allowed to a United States shareholder that is a U.S. corporation. Failure to comply with these reporting obligations may subject a United States shareholder to significant monetary penalties and may prevent the statute of limitations with respect to such shareholder’s U.S. federal income tax return for the year for which reporting was due from starting. We cannot provide any assurances that we will assist investors in determining whether we are or any of our non-U.S. subsidiaries is treated as CFC or whether any investor is treated as a United States shareholder with respect to any such CFC or furnish to any United States shareholders information that may be necessary to comply with the aforementioned reporting and tax paying obligations. The United States Internal Revenue Service has provided limited guidance on situations in which investors may rely on publicly available information to comply with their reporting and tax paying obligations with respect to foreign-controlled CFCs. A United States investor should consult its advisors regarding the potential application of these rules to an investment in our ordinary shares.

We will incur significant increased costs as a result of operating as a public company, and our management will be required to devote substantial time to new compliance initiatives.

As a public company whose ordinary shares will be listed in the United States, we will incur significant legal, accounting and other expenses that we did not incur as a private company. We will be subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, the other rules and regulations of the SEC, and the rules and regulations of The NASDAQ Stock Market, or Nasdaq, and provisions of the Companies Law that apply to public companies such as us. The expenses that will be required in order to adequately prepare for being a public company will be material, and compliance with the various reporting and other requirements applicable to public companies will require considerable time and attention of management. For example, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the rules of the SEC and national securities exchanges have imposed various requirements on public companies, including requiring establishment and maintenance of effective disclosure and financial controls. Our management and other personnel will need to devote a substantial amount of time to these compliance initiatives. These rules and regulations will continue to increase our legal and financial compliance costs and will make some activities more time-consuming and costly. For example, we expect these rules and regulations to make it more difficult and more expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance, and we may be required to accept reduced policy limits on coverage or incur substantial costs to maintain the same or similar coverage. The impact of these events could also make it more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified personnel to serve on our board of directors, our board committees, or as executive officers.

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires, among other things, that we maintain effective internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures. In particular, we must perform system and process evaluation and testing of our internal control over financial reporting to allow management to report on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, beginning as early as our second annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. In addition, we will be required to have our independent registered public accounting firm attest to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting beginning with our annual report on Form 20-F following the date on which we are no longer an emerging growth company. Our compliance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act will require that we incur substantial accounting expense and expend significant management efforts. We currently do not have an internal audit group, and we will need to hire additional accounting and financial staff with appropriate public company experience and technical accounting knowledge. If we are not able to comply with the requirements of Section 404 in a timely manner, or if we or our independent registered public accounting firm identify deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting that are deemed to be material weaknesses, the market price of our shares could decline and we could be subject to sanctions or investigations by Nasdaq, the SEC or other regulatory authorities, which would require additional financial and management resources.

Our ability to successfully implement our business plan and comply with Section 404 requires us to be able to prepare timely and accurate financial statements. We expect that we will need to continue to improve existing, and implement new operational and financial systems, procedures and controls to manage our business effectively. Any delay in the implementation of, or disruption in the transition to, new or enhanced systems, procedures or controls, may cause our operations to suffer and we may be unable to conclude that our internal control over financial reporting is effective and to obtain an unqualified report on internal controls from our auditors as required under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. This, in turn, could have an adverse impact on trading prices for our ordinary shares and could adversely affect our ability to access the capital markets.

We have identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, and we may not be able to successfully implement remedial measures.

We have identified control deficiencies in our financial reporting process that constitute a material weakness for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2021 which are primarily due to the fact that we were a private company prior to this offering. The material weakness related to lack of sufficient internal accounting personnel, segregation of duties, lack of sufficient internal controls (including IT general controls, entity level controls and transaction level controls).

Following the completion of this offering, we expect to take a number of measures to address the material weaknesses that have been identified. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.” However, we cannot assure you that these measures may fully address the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting or that we may conclude that they have been fully remediated.

We expect to complete our remediation plan within the next 12 months. However, we have not tested the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting and cannot assure you that we will be able to successfully remediate this material weakness and, even if we do, we cannot assure you that we will not suffer from other material weaknesses in the future. Except for additional personnel costs, the cost of systems and the costs of our third-party service providers, we do not expect to incur any material costs related to our remediation plan.

Further, there can be no assurance that we will not suffer from other material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in the future. If we fail to remediate these material weaknesses or fail to otherwise maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting in the future, such failure could result in a material misstatement of our annual or quarterly financial statements that would not be prevented or detected on a timely basis and which could cause investors and other users to lose confidence in our financial statements, limit our ability to raise capital and have a negative effect on the trading price of our common stock. Additionally, failure to remediate the material weakness or otherwise maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting may also negatively impact our operating results and financial condition, impair our ability to timely file our periodic and other reports with the SEC, subject us to additional litigation and regulatory actions and cause us to incur substantial additional costs in future periods relating to the implementation of remedial measures.

Our disclosure controls and procedures may not prevent or detect all errors or acts of fraud.

Following the closing of this offering, we will be subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act. We designed our disclosure controls and procedures to provide reasonable assurance that information we must disclose in reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, and recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC. We believe that any disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.

These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people or by an unauthorized override of the controls. Accordingly, because of the inherent limitations in our control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

If our estimates or judgments relating to our critical accounting policies are based on assumptions that change or prove to be incorrect, our results of operations could fall below the expectations of securities analysts and investors, resulting in a decline in the trading price of our ordinary shares.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, as discussed in the section titled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included elsewhere in this prospectus, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets, liabilities, equity, revenue, and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. Our results of operations may be adversely affected if our assumptions change or if actual circumstances differ from those in our assumptions, which could cause our results of operations to fall below our publicly announced guidance or the expectations of securities analysts and investors, resulting in a decline in the market price of our ordinary shares.

Unfavorable conditions in our industry or the global economy or reductions in information technology spending could limit our ability to grow our business and negatively affect our results of operations.

Our results of operations may vary based on the impact of changes in our industry and the global economy on us and our customers. Current or future economic uncertainties or downturns could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Negative conditions in the general economy both in the United States and abroad, including conditions resulting from changes in gross domestic product growth, financial, and credit market fluctuations, political turmoil, natural catastrophes, the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, any other pandemic, epidemic or outbreak of infectious disease, warfare, protests and riots, and terrorist attacks on the United States, Europe, the Asia Pacific region, or elsewhere, could cause a decrease in business investments by our customers and potential customers, including spending on information technology, and negatively affect the growth of our business. To the extent our offerings are perceived by customers and potential customers as discretionary, our revenue may be disproportionately affected by delays or reductions in general information technology spending. Also, customers may choose to develop in-house software as an alternative to using our offerings. Moreover, competitors may respond to market conditions by lowering prices. We cannot predict the timing, strength or duration of any economic slowdown, instability or recovery, generally or within any particular industry. If the economic conditions of the general economy or markets in which we operate do not improve, or worsen from present levels, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

The estimates of market opportunity and forecasts of market growth included in this prospectus may prove to be inaccurate, and even if the markets in which we compete achieve the forecasted growth, our business could fail to grow at similar rates, or at all.

The estimates of market opportunity and forecasts of market growth included in this prospectus may prove to be inaccurate. Market opportunity estimates and growth forecasts are subject to significant uncertainty and are based on assumptions and estimates that may not prove to be accurate, including as a result of any of the risks described in this prospectus.

In addition, the variables that go into the calculation of our market opportunity are subject to change over time, and there is no guarantee that any particular number or percentage of addressable users or companies covered by our market opportunity estimates will purchase our offerings or generate any particular level of revenue for us. In addition, our ability to expand in any of our target markets depends on a number of factors, including the cost, performance, and perceived value associated with our platform and those of our competitors. Even if the markets in which we compete meet the size estimates and growth forecasted in this prospectus, our business could fail to grow at similar rates, or at all. Our growth is subject to many factors, including our success in implementing our business strategy, which is subject to many risks and uncertainties. Accordingly, the forecasts of market growth included in this prospectus should not be taken as indicative of our future growth.

If industry or financial analysts do not publish research or reports about our business, or if they issue inaccurate or unfavorable research regarding our ordinary shares, the market price and trading volume of our ordinary shares could decline.

The trading market for our ordinary shares is influenced by the research and reports that industry or financial analysts publish about us and our business. We do not control these analysts or the content and opinions included in their reports. As a new public company, we may be slow to attract research coverage and the analysts who publish information about our ordinary shares will have had relatively little experience with our company, which could affect their ability to accurately forecast our results and make it more likely that we fail to meet their estimates. In the event we obtain industry or financial analyst coverage, if any of the analysts who cover us issues an inaccurate or unfavorable opinion regarding our company, the market price of our ordinary shares would likely decline. In addition, the share prices of many companies in the technology industry have declined significantly after those companies have failed to meet, or significantly exceed, the financial guidance they have publicly announced or the expectations of analysts and investors. If our financial results fail to meet, or significantly exceed, our announced guidance or the expectations of analysts or investors, analysts could downgrade our ordinary shares or publish unfavorable research about us. If one or more of these analysts cease coverage of our company or fail to publish reports on us regularly, our visibility in the financial markets could decrease, which in turn could cause the market price or trading volume of our ordinary shares to decline.

This prospectus contains forward-looking statements concerning our business, operations and financial performance and condition, as well as our plans, objectives and expectations for our business operations and financial performance and condition. Any statements contained herein that are not statements of historical facts may be deemed to be forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “aim,” “anticipate,” “assume,” “believe,” “contemplate,” “continue,” “could,” “due,” “estimate,” “expect,” “goal,” “intend,” “may,” “objective,” “plan,” “predict,” “potential,” “positioned,” “seek,” “should,” “target,” “will,” “would,” and other similar expressions that are predictions of or indicate future events and future trends, or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology.

Forward-looking statements contained in this prospectus include, but are not limited to, statements about:

Forward-looking statements are based on our management’s current expectations, estimates, forecasts and projections about our business and the industry in which we operate and our management’s beliefs and assumptions, and are not guarantees of future performance or development and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that are in some cases beyond our control. As a result, any or all of our forward-looking statements in this prospectus may turn out to be inaccurate. Important factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations include, among other things, those listed under “Prospectus Summary,” “Risk Factors,” Use of Proceeds,” Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” “Business” and elsewhere in this prospectus. Potential investors are urged to consider these factors carefully in evaluating the forward-looking statements. You should read thoroughly this prospectus and the documents that we refer to with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from and worse than what we expect. We qualify all of our forward-looking statements by these cautionary statements.

The forward-looking statements included in this prospectus speak only as of the date of this prospectus. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee that future results, levels of activity, performance and events and circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements will be achieved or will occur. Except as required by law, we assume no obligation to update or revise these forward-looking statements for any reason, even if new information becomes available in the future. You should, however, review the factors and risks we describe in the reports we will file from time to time with the SEC after the date of this prospectus. See “Where You Can Find More Information.”

We estimate that the net proceeds from the sale of ordinary shares in this offering will be approximately $6.4 million, after deducting the estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us. We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the ordinary shares by the Selling Shareholders. If the underwriters exercise their option to purchase up to an additional ordinary shares in full, we estimate that the net proceeds to us from this offering will be approximately $7.4 million, after deducting the estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us.

We currently expect to use the net proceeds from this offering for the following purposes:

We do not intend to use any of the net proceeds from this offering for our operations in Russia. Although we currently anticipate that we will use the net proceeds from this offering as described above, there may be circumstances where a reallocation of funds is necessary. Amounts and timing of our actual expenditures will depend upon a number of factors, including our sales, marketing and commercialization efforts, demand for our products, operating costs and other factors described under “Risk Factors” in this prospectus. Accordingly, our management will have flexibility in applying the net proceeds from this offering. An investor will not have the opportunity to evaluate the economic, financial or other information on which we base our decisions on how to use the proceeds.

Based on our current plans, we believe that our existing cash, cash equivalents and short-term deposits, together with the net proceeds of this offering, will be sufficient to enable us to fund our operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements through the end of 2024. We have based this estimate on assumptions that may prove to be incorrect, and we could use our available capital resources sooner than we currently expect.

Pending our application of the net proceeds from this offering, we plan to invest such proceeds in short-term, investment-grade, interest-bearing securities and depository institutions.

We have never declared or paid any cash dividends to our shareholders of our ordinary shares, and we do not anticipate or intend to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Payment of cash dividends, if any, in the future will be at the discretion of our board of directors in compliance with applicable legal requirements and will depend on a number of factors, including future earnings, our financial condition, operating results, contractual restrictions, capital requirements, business prospects, our strategic goals and plans to expand our business, applicable law and other factors that our board of directors may deem relevant.

The Companies Law imposes further restrictions on our ability to declare and pay dividends. See “Description of Share Capital” for additional information.

Payment of dividends may be subject to Israeli withholding taxes. See “Taxation” for additional information.

The following table sets forth our cash and cash equivalents and our capitalization as of June 30, 2022:

You should read this table in conjunction with the section titled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and our financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this prospectus.

The number of the ordinary shares to be issued and outstanding immediately after this offering as shown above assumes that all 1,950,000 ordinary shares offered hereby are sold, and is based on 2,578,760 ordinary shares outstanding as of June 30, 2022 after giving effect to a reverse share split that went into effect upon listing of our ordinary shares in this offering at a ratio of 1-for-5 and (i) 7,211,280 ordinary shares issuable upon the voluntary conversion of 36,056,400 convertible ordinary shares and convertible preferred shares, and (ii) 1,142,856 ordinary shares issuable upon the automatic conversion of advance investment agreements at a conversion price equal to 80% of $4.00, and excludes:

The historical audited financial statements included elsewhere in this prospectus have not been adjusted for the reverse share split that went into effect upon listing of our ordinary shares in this offering at a ratio of 1-for-5. Unless otherwise indicated, all other share and per share data in this prospectus have been adjusted on a retroactive basis, where applicable, to reflect the reverse share split as if it had occurred at the beginning of the earliest period presented.

If you invest in our ordinary shares in this offering, your interest will be immediately diluted to the extent of the difference between the initial public offering price per ordinary share in this offering and the pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value per ordinary share after this offering. Dilution results from the fact that the initial public offering price per ordinary share is substantially in excess of the net tangible book value per ordinary share. As of June 30, 2022, we had a historical net tangible book value of $(4.92) million, or $(0.50) per ordinary share. Our net tangible book value per share represents total tangible assets less total liabilities, divided by the number of ordinary shares outstanding on June 30, 2022.

Our pro forma net tangible book value as of June 30, 2022 was $6.23 million, or $0.48 per ordinary share. Pro forma net tangible book value per share represents total tangible assets less total liabilities, divided by the number of the ordinary shares to be issued and outstanding immediately after this offering as shown above assumes that all 1,950,000 ordinary shares offered hereby are sold, and is based on (i) 2,578,760 ordinary shares outstanding as of June 30, 2022 after giving effect to the reverse share split that went into effect upon listing of our ordinary shares in this offering at a ratio of 1-for-5, (ii) 7,211,280 ordinary shares issuable upon the voluntary conversion of 36,056,400 convertible ordinary shares and convertible preferred shares, and (iii) 1,142,856 ordinary shares issuable upon the automatic conversion of advance investment agreements at a conversion price equal to 80% of the initial offering price of $4.00, as if such conversions had occurred on June 30, 2022.

After giving further effect to the sale of ordinary shares in this offering at an initial public offering price of $4.00 per ordinary share after deducting the estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses, and after taking into the pro forma adjustments described above, our pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value at June 30, 2022 would have been $0.48 per share. This represents an immediate increase in pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value of $0.98 per share to existing shareholders and immediate dilution of $3.52 per ordinary share to new investors. The following table illustrates this dilution per ordinary share:

If the underwriters exercise in full their option to purchase additional ordinary shares, the pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value will increase to $0.55 per ordinary share, representing an immediate increase in pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value to existing shareholders of $0.07 per ordinary share and an immediate dilution of $3.45 per ordinary share to new investors participating in this offering.

The following table shows, as of June 30, 2022, on a pro forma as adjusted basis, the number of ordinary shares purchased from us, the total consideration paid to us and the average price paid per share by existing shareholders and by new investors purchasing ordinary shares in this offering at an initial public offering price of $4.00 per ordinary share before deducting the estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us:

The number of the ordinary shares to be issued and outstanding immediately after this offering as shown above assumes that all 1,950,000 ordinary shares offered hereby are sold, and is based on 2,578,760 ordinary shares outstanding as of June 30, 2022 after giving effect to the reverse share split that went into effect upon listing of our ordinary shares in this offering at a ratio of 1-for-5 and (i) 7,211,280 ordinary shares issuable upon the voluntary conversion of 36,056,400 convertible ordinary shares and convertible preferred shares, and (ii) 1,142,856 ordinary shares issuable upon the automatic conversion of advance investment agreements at a conversion price equal to 80% of the initial offering price of $4.00, and excludes:

To the extent that outstanding options are exercised, new options or warrants are issued or we issue additional ordinary shares in the future, there will be further dilution to new investors. We may choose to raise additional capital due to market conditions or strategic considerations even if we believe we have sufficient funds for our current or future operating plans. To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the issuance of these securities could result in further dilution to our equity holders.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

You should read the following discussion in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements including the related notes thereto as of and for the financial years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 and our condensed interim consolidated financial statements including the related notes thereto as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 contained elsewhere in this prospectus. In addition to historical information, this discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. You should read the sections of this prospectus titled “Risk Factors” and “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” for a discussion of the factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from our expectations.

We are a leading innovator of video encoding, transcoding and optimization solutions that enable high quality, performance, and unmatched bitrate efficiency for video and images. With our Emmy®-winning patented technology and award-winning services, we help our customers realize the potential of video encoding and media optimization to address business-critical challenges. Our customers include tier one OTT, content distributors, video streaming platforms, and Hollywood studios who rely on our suite of products and expertise to reduce the cost and complexity associated with storing, distributing and monetizing video and images across devices.

At the heart of our patented optimization technology is the proprietary BQM, that is highly correlated with the human visual system. BQM is integrated into our CABR, system, which maximizes quality and remove visual redundancies resulting in a smaller file size. The BQM has excellent correlation with subjective results, confirmed in testing under ITU BT.500, an international standard for rigorous testing of image quality. The perceptual quality preservation of CABR has been repeatedly verified using large scale crowd-sourcing based testing sessions, as well as by industry leaders and studio “golden eyes”.

Our current product line is mainly geared to the high end, high quality media customers and we count among our enterprise customers Netflix, ViacomCBS, Snapfish, Wowza, Microsoft, VMware, Genesys, Deluxe, Vimeo, Encoding.com, Citrix, Walmart, Photobox, Antix, Dalet, and other leading media companies using video and photo solutions.

Due to the high cost and complexity of deploying our existing software solutions and the long sales lead times, we have a made a strategic decision to focus our resources on the development and commercialization of our next-generation product, the Beamr HW-Accelerated Content Adaptive Encoding solution, a SaaS solution that is designed, based on our own internal testing, to be up to 10x more cost efficient than our existing software-based solutions, resulting in reduced media storage, processing and delivery costs.

We are currently collaborating with NVIDIA, a multinational technology company and a leading developer of GPUs, with an annual revenue of $26.9 billion for the fiscal year 2022, to develop the world’s first GPU accelerated encoding solution that would allow fast and easy end-user deployment combined with superior video compression rates powered with our CABR rate control and BQM quality measure. Our BQM quality measure software will execute directly on NVIDIA GPU cores and interact with the NVIDIA video accelerator encoder known as NVENC. NVIDIA NVENC is a high-quality, high-performance hardware video encoder that is built into most NVIDIA GPUs. NVENC offloads video encoding to hardware, and provides extreme performance for applications such as live video encoding, cloud gaming and cloud storage. NVIDIA GPUs with NVENC are available on all major cloud platforms. We are in the advanced stages of development and expect to beta release the Beamr HW-Accelerated Content Adaptive Encoding solution during the third quarter of 2023 and expect that following release, end-users of the solution will enjoy significant end-user storage cost savings, potentially reducing their return on investment for storage optimization to approximately four months, compared to approximately two years with our existing software encoder solutions.

In December 2019, an outbreak of the COVID-19 disease was first identified and began to spread across the globe. In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a pandemic, impacting many countries around the world, including where our end users and customers are located. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, government authorities around the world have ordered schools and businesses to close, imposed restrictions on non-essential activities and required people to remain at home while instilling significant limitations on traveling and social gatherings. In response to the pandemic, in the first quarter of 2020, we temporarily closed all of our offices, enabled our entire work force to work remotely and implemented travel restrictions for non-essential business. During the second quarter of 2020 we reopened our offices, however most of our employees continued to work remotely, a majority of whom continue to do so as of the date of this prospectus. In addition, as a result of COVID-19, we have experienced and expect to continue to experience an increase in the average length of sales cycles to onboard new customers, delays in new projects, and requests by some customers for extension of payment obligations, all of which could materially and adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations in future periods. The changes we have implemented to date have not materially affected us and are not expected to materially affect our ability to operate our business, including our financial reporting systems. While the potential economic impact brought by, and the duration of, any pandemic, epidemic or outbreak of an infectious disease, including COVID-19, is difficult to assess or predict, the widespread COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in, and may continue to result in, significant disruption of global financial markets, reducing our ability to access capital, which could in the future negatively affect our liquidity.

For additional information, see “Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Business and Industry–The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.”

In addition to our U.S. and Israel operations, we have operations in Russia through our wholly owned subsidiary, Beamr Imaging RU. Specifically, we undertake some of our software development and design, quality assurance, and support in Russia using personnel located there. While a majority of our developers are located in Russia, our research and development leadership is all located in Israel.

Our operations and presence in Russia is limited. We have no manufacturing operations in Russia and we do not sell any products in Russia and as a consequence we have not derived any revenues from there. To date, none of our investors expressed concern with respect to our operations in Russia and none of our customers terminated or downsized their engagement with us as a result of such operations. Our employees in Russia have not to date experienced any change in their daily ability to perform their tasks. We do not expect Russia or another government to nationalize our assets or operations in Russia. In particular, our primary assets are software that are stored outside of Russia and our products and services are all delivered outside of Russia. In addition, we believe that if we needed to, we would be able to recruit personnel outside Russia without any material interruption to our operations. As a result, we believe that if nationalization were to occur, any impact on our financial statements would be immaterial.

Since the start of the conflict, we have been constantly evaluating our activities in Russia. Our board is responsible for overseeing risks related to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, including risks related to cybersecurity, sanctions, employees based in Russia and risks associated with ongoing or halted operations or investments in affected regions and is actively monitoring key risks. In response to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, in March 2022, our management presented to our board a business continuity plan. We have begun to partially implement the business continuity plan in order to address risks related to the conflict on our personnel, operations and product development that includes alternative payment solutions for personnel in Russia and relocation of certain personnel to territories outside Russia and Belarus on short notice.

For additional information, see “Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Operations in Russia—Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and sanctions brought against Russia could disrupt our software development operations in Russia.”

Our revenues are mainly comprised of revenue from licensing the rights to use our software for a limited term (mainly for a period of one to three years) or on a perpetual basis for enterprises that incorporate our perpetual license in their own products delivered to end users and for our products sold to thousands of private consumers, as applicable to each contract, and from and provision of related maintenance and technical support services (i.e. Post-Contract Customer Support, or PCS).

Revenue from the sale of software license (either timely-based or perpetual) is recognized at a point in time in which the license is delivered to the customer. The software license is considered a distinct performance obligation, as the customer can benefit from the software on its own. Revenue from PCS services are also derived from annual maintenance providing for unspecified upgrades on a when-and-if-available basis. The right for an unspecified upgrade for the version acquired by the customer and enhancements on a when-and-if-available basis that do not specify the features, functionality and release date of future product enhancements for the customer to know what will be made available and the general timeframe in which it will be delivered. We consider the PCS performance obligation as a distinct performance obligation that is satisfied over time and recognized on a straight-line basis over the contractual period (mainly over a period of one year either for timely-based license or for perpetual license).

As we bundle software licenses (either timely-based or perpetual) together with PCS, the transaction price is allocated to the separate performance obligations on a relative standalone selling price basis.

Since we do not sell PCS on a stand-alone basis and due to the fact that these services are usually involved with limited customer support, mainly based on several hours of technical support per contract (as management believes the technology and products covered under the software license component are mature and fully functional), the standalone selling prices of the PCS are determined based on the expected cost plus a margin based on estimation of direct fulfillment cost (an hourly service) and a reasonable margin. Such estimate is also corroborated with the price that the customer would have to pay to a third-party service provider for a similar support service.

The stand-alone selling price of the software licenses (either timely-based or perpetual) is estimated by management based on adjusted market assessment approach which represents management estimation of the price that a customer in the market will be willing to pay for such license on a stand-alone basis (i.e. without any PCS).

Due to the fact that these services are usually involved with limited customer support, mainly based on several hours of technical support per contract, the transaction price allocated to the PCS is considered insignificant. Consequently, most of the transaction price is allocated to the software licenses as management believes the technology and products covered under the software license component are mature and fully functional.

Cost of software licensing and related maintenance and technical support services revenues primarily consist of costs related to salaries, of our support team and additional overhead allocation costs such as rent, utilities and supplies to all departments based on relative headcount.

Gross margins have been, and will continue to be, affected by a variety of factors, including the average sales price of our products and services, volume growth, the mix of revenues, software licenses, maintenance and technical support and professional services, onboarding of new media and telecom customers, and changes in cloud infrastructure and personnel costs.

Our research and development expenses consist primarily of costs incurred for personnel-related expenses for our technical staff, including salaries and other direct personnel-related costs. Additional expenses include consulting, amortization of acquired technology intangible asset and professional fees for third-party development resources. We expect our research and development expenses to increase in absolute dollars for the foreseeable future as we continue to dedicate substantial resources to develop, improve and expand the functionality of our solutions. Subsequent costs incurred for the development of future upgrades and enhancements, which are expected to result in additional functionality, may qualify for capitalization under internal-use software and therefore may cause research and development expenses to fluctuate.

Our selling and marketing expenses consist primarily of personnel related costs for our sales and marketing functions, including salaries and other direct personnel-related costs. Additional expenses include marketing program costs, amortization of acquired customer relationships and trade names, intangible assets, and payment processer commissions. We expect our selling and marketing expenses will increase on an absolute dollar basis for the foreseeable future as we continue to increase investments to support our growth. We also anticipate that selling and marketing expenses will increase as a percentage of revenue in the near and medium-term.

Our general and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel-related costs for our executive, finance, human resources, professional fees, information technology and legal functions, including salaries and other direct personnel-related costs. We expect general and administrative expense to increase on an absolute dollar basis for the foreseeable future as we continue to increase investments to support our growth and as a result of our becoming a public company.

We allocate overhead expenses related to the services agreement and the office agreement expenses under which we receive recurring consulting and related services from our founder, Mr. Sharon Carmel as Chief Executive Officer and an entity controlled by him, Sharon Carmel Management, Ltd. The allocation was done based on the management estimation to reflect the contribution to the related activity.

Other income consists primarily of loans forgiveness as it were utilized for qualifying expenses under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act.

Financing income (expenses), net consists of amortization of discounts and interest expense on our indebtedness, modification of terms relating to our loan with Silicon Valley Bank, or SVB, and changes in the fair value of warrants and convertible advanced investments. Financial expenses, net also includes foreign exchange gains and losses.

We are subject to taxes in jurisdictions or countries in which we conduct business. Our effective tax rate is affected by tax rates in jurisdictions and the relative amounts of income we earn in those jurisdictions, changes in the valuation of our deferred tax assets and liabilities, applicability of any valuation allowances, and changes in tax laws in jurisdictions in which we operate. Due to cumulative losses, we maintain a valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets. We consider all available evidence, both positive and negative, in assessing the extent to which a valuation allowance should be applied against our deferred tax assets. Realization of our deferred tax assets depends upon future earnings, the timing and amount of which are uncertain. Our effective tax rate is affected by tax rates in foreign jurisdictions and the relative amounts of income we earn in those jurisdictions, as well as non-deductible expenses, such as share-based compensation, and changes in our valuation allowance.

The following tables summarize key components of our results of operations for the periods presented. The period-to-period comparisons of our historical results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected in the future.

The following table presents our revenue, cost of revenues and gross profit for the periods indicated:

Revenues decreased by $0.1 million, or 9%, to $0.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, from $1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease was primarily due to one-time projects in 2021 which resulted in higher revenues.

Research and development expenses increased by $0.1 million, or 7% to $1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, from $0.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase was mainly due to expenses related to our business continuity plan in order to address risks related to the Russia – Ukraine conflict.

Selling and marketing expenses decreased by $0.06 million, or 11%, to $0.46 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, from $0.52 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in amortization of intangible assets.

General and administrative expenses increased by $0.1 million, or 33%, to $0.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, from $0.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase was primarily due to initial public offering related service provider expenses.

Other income of $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, was due to due to forgiveness of a loan under the paycheck protection program note.

Financing expenses decreased by $0.3 million, or 158%, to 0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, from $(0.2) million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in the change of fair value of convertible advanced investment, one-time expenses incurred as result of modification of terms relating to straight loan and a decrease in amortization of interest on straight loan

Taxes on income decreased by $0.015 million, or 71%, to $0.006 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, from $0.021 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease was primarily due to tax provision adjustments related to amortization of intangible assets.

The following table presents our revenue, cost of revenues and gross profit for the periods indicated:

Revenues increased by $0.1 million, or 4%, to $3.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2021, from $3.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2020. The increase was primarily due to higher volume of transactions in which license renewal transactions have occurred in 2021 which resulted in recognizing the related revenues in higher amount in such reported year compared to 2020.

Research and development expenses decreased by $0.7 million, or 25% to $2 million for the year ended December 31, 2021, from $2.7 million in 2020. The decrease was primarily due to (i) a reduction in salary and expenses related to a change in priority of deployment of our resources, (ii) a decrease in depreciation and amortization of intangible assets, and (iii) our focus of our R&D on our new SaaS solution, the Beamr HW-Accelerated Content Adaptive Encoding solution.

Selling and marketing expenses decreased by $0.4 million, or 30%, to $1 million for the year ended December 31, 2021, from $1.4 million in 2020. The decrease was primarily due to (i) a reduction in salary and expenses related to a change in priority of deployment of our resources, (ii) a decrease in depreciation and amortization of intangible assets, and (iii) our focus of our R&D on our new SaaS solution, the Beamr HW-Accelerated Content Adaptive Encoding solution.

General and administrative expenses increased by $0.1 million, or 15%, to $0.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2021, from $0.7 million in 2020. The increase was primarily due to IPO related service providers.

Other income of $0.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2021, was due to forgiveness of loans under paycheck protection program. Other income of $0.02 million for the year ended December 31, 2020, was due to a government grant in Israel related to COVID-19 benefits.

Financing expenses decreased by $0.2 million, or 32%, to $0.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2021, from $0.7 million in 2020. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in the change of fair value of convertible advanced investment, a decrease in exchange rate differences, a decrease in amortization of discount and accrued interest on our loan from SVB and offset by one-time expenses incurred as result of modification of terms relating to straight loan.

Taxes on income decreased by $0.04 million, or 45%, to $0.05 million for the year ended December 31, 2021, from $0.1 million in 2020. The decrease was primarily due to tax provision adjustments related to amortization of intangible assets.

We have financed our operations through cash generated from operations, the proceeds from our private offerings, proceeds from receiving convertible advanced investments from our current shareholders and others. Cash and cash equivalents on June 30, 2022 were approximately $0.4 million. During the fourth quarter of 2022, we implemented a cost reduction plan, including layoffs of certain employees, reducing certain employees from full-time status to part-time status and salary and bonus reductions of our management and employees. This plan is expected to reduce our annual costs in 2023 by approximately $0.6 million, and, with the recruitment of our new Chief Product Officer, will also allow us to focus on building our future SaaS, and building a short term roadmap to maximize revenues from our existing products.

We believe that our existing capital resources and cash flows from operations together with funds received from the IBI Loan Agreement (as described below) will be adequate to satisfy our expected liquidity requirements through the next twelve months. Without derogating from the foregoing estimate regarding our existing capital resources and cash flows from operations, we may decide to raise additional funds in 2023. We believe that, if required, we will be able to raise additional capital or reduce discretionary spending to provide the required liquidity beyond the next twelve months.

Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including our revenue growth, the timing and extent of investments to support such growth, the expansion of sales and marketing activities, increases in general and administrative costs and many other factors as described under “Risk Factors.”

To the extent additional funds are necessary to meet our long-term liquidity needs as we continue to execute our business strategy, we anticipate that they will be obtained through the incurrence of additional indebtedness, additional equity financings or a combination of these potential sources of funds; however, such financing may not be available on favorable terms, or at all. In particular, the widespread COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in, and may continue to result in, significant disruption of global financial markets, reducing our ability to access capital. If we are unable to raise additional funds when desired, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

On February 19, 2017, we and Beamr, Inc., our wholly owned subsidiary, entered into a Loan Agreement, or the 2017 Loan Agreement, with SVB under which we had a right to borrow from SVB up to $3 million bearing interest at a floating per annum rate equal to the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate plus 3.5% (upon occurrence of an ‘default event’ as defined in the Loan Agreement, the principal amount shall bear interest at a rate per annum which is 5% above the rate that is otherwise applicable thereto) which shall be payable monthly. In June 2018, we subsequently drew down a cash amount in the aggregate principal amount of $3 million, or the 2017 Loan, payable in 36 equal installments on a monthly basis commencing the following month after draw down. On July 26, 2022, we terminated the 2017 Loan Agreement. The Loan is sometimes referred to herein as a “straight loan”.

In connection with the execution of the 2017 Loan Agreement, we issued to SVB a 15-year warrant to purchase (i) 41,040 Series C Convertible Preferred Shares at an exercise price of $5.12 per share or (ii) 41,040 shares to be issued in the ‘next round’ at an exercise price equal to the lowest price per share at which we will sell and issue shares of the next round shares.

On April 15, 2020, we signed a deferral agreement in connection with the 2017 Loan Agreement with SVB according to which it was agreed that the original monthly repayment date for the principal due from May 2020 to October 2020 shall be extended by a period of six months commencing November 2020.

In addition, on April 29, 2021, or the Deferral Effective Date, we signed a second deferral agreement in connection with the 2017 Loan Agreement with SVB according to which it was agreed that the original monthly repayment date for the principal due from May 2021 to October 2021 shall be extended by a period of six months commencing November 2021. In consideration, we agreed to (i) pay to SVB a total deferral facility fee equal to $50, which fee shall be fully earned at the Deferral Effective Date, and payable in 10 monthly equal installments over the period commencing April 29, 2021 through January 29, 2022; (ii) reimburse SVB for all reasonable legal fees and expenses incurred in connection with the deferral agreement and (iii) issue to SVB a 15-year warrant to purchase 9,764 shares exercisable at an exercise price of $5.12 per share (subject to standard adjustments) into either Series C Preferred Shares or a class of securities sold and issued by us in the next equity financing round. Furthermore, if SVB exercises the warrant and the warrant value (as determined in the warrant) is lower than $50,000, then immediately following such exercise, we are required to pay the holder an amount equal to the difference between the $50,000 and the warrant value.

On February 17, 2022, we entered into a second Loan and Securities Agreement, or the 2022 Loan Agreement providing a credit line against our accounts receivables. According to the 2022 Loan Agreement, commencing as of August 1, 2022 through December 31, 2022, SVB may, in its sole discretion in each instance, pursuant to our request, finance specific eligible account receivables of ours, as determined in the 2022 Loan Agreement, in a total amount equal to the face amount of the eligible account receivable multiplied by a rate of 80%, subject to reduction by SVB in its discretion, or the Advance, provided that the aggregate amount of all outstanding Advances shall not exceed the lesser of (i) an aggregate principal amount equal to $350,000, or the Revolving Line, or (ii) 80% of all eligible account receivables minus the sum of all outstanding principal amounts of any Advances, subject to reduction by SVB in its discretion. The outstanding principal amount of any Advance shall accrue interest at a floating rate per annum equal to the greater of (i) 8.25% and (ii) a floating per annum rate equal to the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate plus 5% (upon occurrence of a ‘default event’ as defined in the 2022 Loan Agreement, the aggregate loan principal amount shall bear interest at a rate per annum which is 5% above the rate that is otherwise applicable thereto). Interest on the principal amount of each Advance will be payable in monthly arrears (i) on each the last day of each month and (ii) on December 31, 2022, or the Revolving Line Maturity Date. The security interest granted in the 2022 Loan Agreement shall at all times continue to be a first priority perfected security. On July 26, 2022, we terminated the 2022 Loan Agreement and the security interest on all our assets was removed.

Upon making of the initial Advance, we agreed to issue to SVB a warrant to purchase (i) 4,784 Series C Convertible Preferred Shares, or (ii) ordinary shares in the event that we have listed its securities for trading on Nasdaq, or (iii) upon SVB’s written irrevocable election in its sole discretion, the same class and series, or other designation, of convertible preferred share or other senior equity security sold and issued by us in the next equity financing over a 15-years period commencing the issuance date of such warrant, at an exercise price of $5.12 per share, provided that if the class is the next equity financing securities, then the exercise price shall be the lowest price per share for which next equity financing securities are sold or issued by us. Upon termination of the 2022 Loan Agreement, we have no commitment to issue to SVB the aforesaid warrant.

On July 7, 2022, we entered into a funding agreement with IBI providing for a loan, or the IBI Loan, in the amount of NIS 3.1 million (approximately $900,000), or the IBI Loan Agreement. The loan is repayable on a monthly basis based on a formula set forth in the IBI Loan Agreement until the earlier repayment of NIS 4,172,760 (approximately $1.2 million), or the Repayment Amount, or January 5, 2026. We may repay the IBI Loan early based on formula set forth in the IBI Loan Agreement. The IBI Loan Agreement provides for certain customary covenants and accelerates in the event of default.

In consideration for the grant of the IBI Loan, we are required to pay to IBI a non-refundable one-time fee of 1.5% of the IBI Loan amount and we agreed to issue a warrant to purchase 65,562 warrant shares, which refers to the most senior class of shares outstanding or, in the case of an exercise following the completion of this offering, ordinary shares. The warrant shall have a term of the earlier of 10 years or certain liquidation events and a variable exercise price depending on the occurrence of certain liquidation events. In the case of the completion of this offering, the exercise price of the warrant shall be a 20% discount to the public price per share sold in this offering. The warrant can be exercised on cashless exercise based on discretion of IBI.

For the year ended December 31, 2021, net cash provided by operating activities was mainly due to a net loss of $1 million and $0.1 million of forgiveness of loan under a paycheck protection program note, which was offset by $0.2 million of depreciation and amortization, $0.2 million of share-based compensation, $0.01 million of amortization of discount relating to our loan from SVB, $0.3 million of change in the fair value of convertible advanced investments, $0.1 million of modification of terms of our loan from SVB, $0.7 million change in trade receivables and $0.2 million change in other working capital items as shown in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows of the interim financial statements.

For the year ended December 31, 2020, net cash used in operating activities was mainly due to a net loss of $2.4 million, which was offset by $0.6 million of depreciation and amortization, $0.1 million of share-based compensation, $0.02 million of amortization of discount relating to our loan from SVB, $0.4 million of change in the fair value of convertible advanced investments and $0.1 million of change in other working capital items as shown in the consolidated statement of cash flows of the annual financial statements.

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, net cash used in operating activities was mainly due to a net loss of $0.8 million, $0.2 million of change in the fair value of convertible advanced investments, which was offset by $0.1 million of share-based compensation, $0.7 million change in trade receivables and $0.05 million change in other working capital items as shown in the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows of the interim financial statements.

For the six months ended June 30, 2021, net cash provided by operating activities was mainly due to a net loss of $0.9 million and $0.08 million of forgiveness of loan under a paycheck protection program note, which was offset by $0.1 million of depreciation and amortization, $0.05 million of share-based compensation, $0.01 million of amortization of discount relating to our loan from SVB, $0.1 million of change in the fair value of convertible advanced investments, $0.1 of modification of terms of our loan from SVB and $1.6 million change in other working capital items as shown in the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows of the interim financial statements.

For the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, the change in net cash used in investing activities was immaterial.

Net cash used in financing activities of $0.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2021 was related to repayment of a straight loan and facility fees of $0.5 million and deferred offering costs of $0.2 million and offset by proceeds received from a paycheck protection program note of $0.05 million and proceeds received from issuance of convertible advanced investments of $0.6 million.

Net cash used in financing activities of $0.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2020 was related to repayment of our loan from SVB of $0.5 million and offset by proceeds received from a paycheck protection program note of $0.07 million and proceeds received from exercise of share options into shares of $0.01 million.

Net cash used in financing activities of $0.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was related to repayment of a straight loan of $0.5 million and deferred offering costs of $0.04 million.

Net cash used in financing activities of $0.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was related to repayment of a straight loan of $0.3 million and offset by proceeds received from a paycheck protection program note of $0.05 million.

We did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as of December 31, 2021 and June 30, 2022.

Prior to our initial public offering, we have been a private company with limited accounting and financial reporting personnel and other resources to address our internal controls and procedures. In connection with the audit of our consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2020 and 2021, we identified control deficiencies in our financial reporting process that constitute a material weakness for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2021. The material weakness related to lack of sufficient internal accounting personnel, segregation of duties, and lack of sufficient internal controls (including IT general controls, entity level controls and transaction level controls).

As defined in the standards established by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board of the United States, a “material weakness” is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Following the completion of this offering, we expect to take a number of measures to address the internal control deficiencies that have been identified including expanding our existing accounting and financial reporting personnel, establishing effective monitoring and oversight controls and engaging an external consulting firm to assist us with assessment of Sarbanes-Oxley compliance requirements and improvement of overall internal controls. However, we cannot assure you that these measures may fully address the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting or that we may conclude that they have been fully remediated.

The process of designing and implementing an effective financial reporting system is a continuous effort that requires us to anticipate and react to changes in our business and the economic and regulatory environments and to expend significant resources to maintain a financial reporting system that is adequate to satisfy our reporting obligation. See “Risk Factors— Risks Related to this Offering and Ownership of our Ordinary Shares— We have identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, and we may not be able to successfully implement remedial measures.”

As a company with less than US $1.235 billion in revenue for our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” pursuant to the JOBS Act. An emerging growth company may take advantage of specified reduced reporting and other requirements that are otherwise applicable generally to public companies. These provisions include exemption from the auditor attestation requirement under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, in the assessment of the emerging growth company’s internal control over financial reporting.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Our management believes that the estimates, judgment and assumptions used are reasonable based upon information available at the time they are made. These estimates, judgments and assumptions can affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

We believe that the accounting policies described below require management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments. Judgments or uncertainties affecting the application of these policies may result in materially different amounts being reported under different conditions or using different assumptions. Accordingly, we believe these are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our financial condition and results of operations. See Note 2 to the audited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this prospectus for additional information regarding these and our other significant accounting policies.

We account for share-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, “Compensation - Stock Compensation”, or ASC 718, which requires companies to estimate the fair value of equity-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The value of the portion of the award is recognized as an expense over the requisite service periods by applying the straight-line method in our consolidated statements of comprehensive loss.

We selected the Black-Scholes option-pricing model as the most appropriate fair value method for its option awards. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the fair value of the underlying ordinary shares, the expected volatility of the price of our ordinary shares, the expected term of the option, risk-free interest rates and the expected dividend yield of our ordinary shares. These estimates involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management’s judgment. These assumptions are estimated as follows:

The fair value of ordinary shares was determined by our board of directors, with input from management, and taking into account the most recent valuation from an independent third-party valuation specialist. These valuations were determined in accordance with the guidelines outlined in the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Accounting and Valuation Guide: Valuation of Privately-Held-Company Equity Securities Issued as Compensation. The assumptions we used in the valuation models were based on future expectations combined with management judgment. Numerous objective and subjective factors were considered in the determination of the fair value of our ordinary shares as of the date of each option grant, including the following factors:

In valuing our ordinary shares, absent an arm’s-length current/recent round of financing, the fair value of our business, or equity value, was determined using both the income approach and market approach.

The income approach estimates value based on the expectation of future cash flows that we will generate. These future cash flows are discounted to their present values using a discount rate based on the capital rates of return for comparable publicly traded companies and are adjusted to reflect the risks inherent in our cash flows relative to those inherent in the companies utilized in the discount rate calculation.

The market approach estimates value based on a comparison of us to comparable public companies in a similar line of business. From the comparable companies, representative market value multiples are determined and then applied to our financial results to estimate our value.

The resulting equity value was then allocated to each share class using an OPM. Under the OPM, preferred and ordinary shares are treated as a series of call options, with the preferred shares having an exercise price based on the liquidation preference of the respective preferred share. The OPM operates through a series of Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing models, with the exercise prices of the options representing the upper and lower bounds of the proceed ranges that a security holder would receive upon a liquidity event. The strike prices occur at break points where the allocation of firm value changes among the various security holders. The ordinary shares are presumed to have value only if funds available for distribution to shareholders exceed the value of the respective liquidation preferences at the time of a liquidity event.

For each valuation date, after the ordinary shares value was determined, a discount for lack of marketability, or DLOM, was applied to arrive at the fair value of the ordinary shares on a non-marketable basis. A DLOM is applied in order to reflect the lack of a recognized market for a closely held interest and the fact that a non-controlling equity interest may not be readily transferable. A market participant purchasing this share would recognize this illiquidity associated with the shares, which would reduce the overall fair value. The discount for lack of marketability was determined using a put option as a proxy for measuring discounts for lack of marketability of securities.

We also considered any secondary transactions involving our capital shares. In our evaluation of those transactions, we considered the facts and circumstances of each transaction to determine the extent to which they represented a fair value exchange. Factors considered include:

Application of these approaches involves the use of estimates, judgments, and assumptions that are highly complex and subjective, such as those regarding our expected future revenue, expenses, future cash flows, discount rates, market multiples, the selection of comparable companies, and the probability of possible future events. Changes in any or all of these estimates and assumptions or the relationships between those assumptions impact our valuations as of each valuation date and may have a material impact on the valuation of our ordinary shares.

Please see Note 2V to our consolidated annual financial statements included elsewhere in this prospectus for information regarding recent accounting pronouncements.

Under the JOBS Act, an “emerging growth company” can take advantage of an extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards. This provision allows an “emerging growth company” to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different transition dates for public and private companies until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. Although we meet the definition of an “emerging growth company” and we have elected not to use this extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards.

We are exposed to market risk from changes in exchange rates, interest rates and inflation. All of these market risks arise in the ordinary course of business, as we do not engage in speculative trading activities. The following analysis provides additional information regarding these risks.

Our functional currency and all of our subsidiaries all of which are primarily a direct and integral component of our operation is the U.S. dollars, as the U.S. dollars is the primary currency of the economic environment in which us and our subsidiaries have operated (which is the currency of the environment in which an entity primarily generates cash) and expects to continue to operate in the foreseeable future. Our sales are mainly denominated in U.S. dollars. A significant portion of our operating costs are in Israel and in Russia, consisting principally of salaries and related personnel expenses, and facility expenses, which are denominated in NIS and RUB. This foreign currency exposure gives rise to market risk associated with exchange rate movements of the U.S. dollar against the NIS and RUB. Furthermore, we anticipate that a significant portion of our expenses will continue to be denominated in NIS and RUB. We do not hedge against currency risk. A hypothetical 10% change in foreign currency exchange rates applicable to our business would have had an impact on our results for the year ended December 31, 2021 and the six months ended June 30, 2022 of $0.2 million and $0.1 million, respectively, due to NIS, and $0.1 million and $0.05 million, respectively, due to RUB.

As of December 31, 2021, we had outstanding floating rate debt obligations of $0.5 million, consisting of the outstanding principal balance under our credit facilities. As of June 30, 2022, we had no outstanding floating rate debt obligations. Accordingly, fluctuations in market interest rates may increase or decrease our interest expense which will, in turn, increase or decrease our net income and cash flow. We seek to manage exposure to adverse interest rate changes through our normal operating and financing activities. At this time, we do not use derivative instruments to mitigate our interest rate risk. A hypothetical 10% change in interest rates during the periods presented would not have resulted in any material change to interest expenses.

While it is difficult to accurately measure the impact of inflation due to the imprecise nature of the estimates required, we do not believe inflation has had a material effect on our historical results of operations and financial condition. However, if our costs were to become subject to significant inflationary pressures, we may not be able to fully offset higher costs through price increases or other corrective measures, and our inability or failure to do so could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

At the heart of our patented optimization technology is the proprietary Beamr quality measure, or BQM, that is highly correlated with the human visual system. BQM is integrated into our content adaptive bitrate, or CABR, system which together maximizes quality and removes visual redundancies resulting in a smaller file size. The BQM has excellent correlation with subjective results, confirmed in testing under ITU BT.500, an international standard for rigorous testing of image quality. The perceptual quality preservation of CABR has been repeatedly verified using large scale crowd-sourcing based testing sessions, as well as by industry leaders and studio “golden eyes”.

We currently license three core video and image compression products that help our customers use video and images to further their businesses in meaningful ways: (1) a suite of video compression software encoder solutions including the Beamr 4 H.264 encoder, Beamr 4X H.264 content adaptive encoder, Beamr 5 HEVC encoder and the Beamr 5X HEVC content adaptive encoder, (2) Beamr JPEGmini photo optimization software solutions for reducing JPEG file sizes, and (3) Beamr Silicon IP block, a hardware solution for integration into dedicated video encoding ASICs, GPUs, and application processors.

We are currently collaborating with NVIDIA, a multinational technology company and a leading developer of GPUs, with an annual revenue of $26.9 billion for the fiscal year 2022, to develop the Beamr HW-Accelerated Content Adaptive Encoding solution, the world’s first GPU accelerated encoding solution powered with our CABR, which will allow fast and easy end-user deployment combined with superior video compression rates. Upon completion, our CABR software will execute directly on NVIDIA GPU cores and interact with the NVIDIA video accelerator encoder known as NVENC. NVIDIA NVENC is a high-quality, high-performance hardware video encoder that is built into most NVIDIA GPUs. NVENC offloads video encoding to hardware, and provides extreme performance for applications such as live video encoding, cloud gaming and cloud storage. NVIDIA GPUs with NVENC are available on all major cloud platforms.

We expect the first version of the integrated video optimization engine to be ready by the end of the first quarter of 2023. Following this and assuming the timely completion of our initial public offering in the first quarter of 2023, we plan to build out the cloud based SaaS platform and test it with beta customers in the third quarter of 2023. Following that, we plan to commercially launch the first release of our cloud based Beamr HW-Accelerated Content Adaptive Encoding solution in the first quarter of 2024 and expect that following release, end-users of the solution will enjoy significant end-user storage cost savings. Using the Beamr HW-Accelerated Content Adaptive Encoding solution will potentially reduce their return on investment for storage optimization to approximately four months, compared to approximately two years with our existing software encoder solutions.

We believe that the following business strengths differentiate us from our competitors and are key to our success:

The fact that the video data is often required to be stored and accessed forever cannot be ignored for long periods. This brings about the problem of lifetime costs associated with the efficient storing and managing of data. While the upfront cost might appear manageable but over a period, the rise in data volumes might require organizations to result in the need to pay more in the future to keep the data in the cloud. In today’s environment, with deployment of media and entertainment, user generated content, enterprise video, agricultural technology, or AgTech, and industrial solutions, autonomous vehicles, surveillance and smart cities, we believe that the usage of video and its storage on public cloud platforms is expected to increase exponentially and we believe existing solutions are not suitable for large volume storage optimization.

At the heart of our patented optimization technology is the proprietary BQM, a novel, efficient and reliable quality evaluation algorithm which is highly correlated with the human vision system. The CABR technology, with the BQM at its core, allows encoders to make smarter, quality driven, encoding decisions. CABR is a closed-loop content-adaptive rate control mechanism enabling video encoders to lower the bitrate of their encode, while simultaneously preserving the perceptual quality of the higher bitrate encode. An integrated CABR encoding solution consists of a video encoder and the CABR rate control engine. The CABR engine comprises the CABR control module responsible for managing the optimization process and a module which evaluates video quality. The video encoder first encodes a frame using a configuration based on its regular rate control mechanism, resulting in an initial encode. Then, Beamr’s CABR rate control instructs the encoder to encode the same frame again with various values of encoding parameters, creating candidate encodes. Using the BQM, each candidate encode is compared with the initial encode, and then the best candidate is selected and placed in the output stream. The best candidate is the one that has the lowest bitrate but still has the same perceptual quality as the initial encode. Due to very efficient control algorithms, only approximately 1.5-2 iterations are required on average to find the best candidate. Combined with the real-time oriented design of BQM, and the possibility to reuse encoding decisions from the initial encode, the impact on overall performance is quite manageable.

The following is a depiction of the CABR system showing how the BQM interacts with a video encoder.

In testing, BQM demonstrated higher correlation with subjective results than other quality measures such as PSNR and SSIM. In user testing, under ITU BT.500, an international standard for testing image quality, the correlation of our BQM with subjective (human) results was, in our opinion, very high.

Beamr’s CABR technology was integrated as a new rate control mechanism into our software H.264 and HEVC encoders. With regular VBR encoding, the user of the encoder sets a target bitrate, and the resulting bitrate of the encoded video will be that target bitrate. With CABR encoding, the user also sets a target bitrate, but the resulting bitrate of the encoded video will be lower than that target. The video will be encoded to the lowest possible bitrate that is still perceptually identical to a VBR encode at that target bitrate. CABR with BQM can also be used to optimize an input video stream, by removing redundancies and creating an equivalent, lower bitrate, perceptually identical output video stream.

As seen in the two graphs below, for VBR encoding the actual average bitrate of the encoded clip is very similar to the requested target bitrate. For CABR encoding, the actual bitrate of the encoded clips is lower than the requested target bitrate. The difference between the requested target bitrate (dotted line) and the actual encoded CABR bitrate (blue line) is the bitrate savings. As seen in the graphs, the bitrate savings increase as the target bitrate increases, since for higher target bitrates there is more redundancy present in the encoded stream, redundancy which CABR removes.

Ultimately, Beamr’s CABR system enables the bitrate of video files to be reduced by up to 50% over the current state of the art standard compliant block based encoders, without compromising image quality, bitstream standard compliance or changing the artistic intent. We believe that a source video and a Beamr-optimized video viewed side-by-side will look exactly the same to the human eye.

Beamr has integrated the CABR engine into its AVC software encoder, Beamr 4, and into its HEVC software encoder, Beamr 5. Similarly, the CABR engine can be integrated with any software or hardware video encoder, supporting any block-based video standard such as AVC (the most popular video standard supported on almost all end user devices), HEVC (the leading 4K video standard available on almost all 4K televisions), and AV1 (the emerging royalty-free standard led by Google, Apple, Microsoft, Intel and many others which is used on Netflix, Youtube and Vimeo). In addition, CABR with BQM can be used to optimize an input video stream, by removing redundancies and creating an equivalent, lower bitrate, perceptually identical output video stream.

Our Next-Generation SaaS Product: Beamr HW-Accelerated Content Adaptive Encoding

We are currently collaborating with NVIDIA, a leading developer of GPUs, to develop the world’s first GPU accelerated encoding solution that would allow fast and easy end-user deployment combined with superior video compression rates powered with our CABR rate control and BQM quality measure.

Our current product line of CABR software encoders run on the CPU. In proof of concept tests with both Intel and NVIDIA, we have demonstrated that when our CABR is offloaded from the CPU to the GPU, the cost/performance ratio is up to 10x better than on the CPU.

To accommodate Beamr’s content-adaptive GPU accelerated encoding solution, NVIDIA is currently modifying the API of the NVENC. We are also porting the CABR to run on the GPU and when the modified API is made public we will be able to use the NVENC as the video encoder for CABR, offloading CABR-based video encoding from the CPU to the GPU enabling low-cost, high resolution, real time CABR encoding.

Upon release, we believe the Beamr HW-Accelerated Content Adaptive Encoding solution will provide a simple, easily deployable, fast, scalable, low cost and best-in-class video optimization solution resulting in reduced media storage, processing and delivery costs. We initially plan to offer our Beamr HW-Accelerated Content Adaptive Encoding solution as a SaaS offering through public cloud data services that utilize NVIDIA GPUs (e.g., AWS, Microsoft Azure, GCP) allowing us to potentially access and acquire large numbers of new customers with relatively low sales investment.

With the completion of the foregoing steps, we expect the first version of the integrated video optimization engine to be ready by the end of the first quarter of 2023. Following this and assuming the timely completion of our initial public offering in the first quarter of 2023, we plan to build out the cloud based SaaS platform and test it with beta customers in the third quarter of 2023. Following that, we plan to commercially launch the first release of our cloud based Beamr HW-Accelerated Content Adaptive Encoding solution in the first quarter of 2024 and expect that following release, end-users of the solution will enjoy significant end-user storage cost savings. Using the Beamr HW-Accelerated Content Adaptive Encoding solution will potentially reduce their return on investment for storage optimization to approximately four months, compared to approximately two years with our existing software encoder solutions.

Below is a depiction of how we expect the end-user dashboard of the Beamr HW-Accelerated Content Adaptive Encoding to look.

Following integration into the NVIDIA GPU, we believe the Beamr HW-Accelerated Content Adaptive Encoding solution will provide the following key benefits including:

Using our content adaptive bit rate solution, we estimate end users will be able to save up to 50% of their video storage costs and an average of 30% in their cost of video public cloud storage, which, based on 2020 amounts, according to Fortune Business Insights, currently stands at $6 billion.

Beamr4 is our fully standard compliant AVC (H.264) video encoder. This encoding standard is still the primary format used in video applications across the market. While the decoder and bitstream are fully defined by the standard, video coding standards do not define the encoder, and this is completely up to the implementation ingenuity. At Beamr we have spent many years perfecting our encoder, resulting in an efficient, high performance, high quality AVC encoder, which enables using less computation to achieve the same compression efficiency as competing implementations. (Compression efficiency is defined by how much you can compress the video to obtain a target quality, or vice-versa, what quality can be obtained at a specified bitrate, The higher the compression efficiency, the less bits are needed for a certain quality level). Beamr4 has an extensive API enabling deep control of the encoder configuration to maximize the benefit for each and every application or use case, and our support team is available to help users find the best setup for their specific needs.

Beamr5 is our fully standard compliant HEVC (H.265) video encoder. This encoding standard is the primary format used today for high resolution (4K, 8K) and premium quality encoding of 10 and 12 bit and High-Dynamic-Range content. Once again, only the decoder and bitstream are defined by the standard, and encoders can differ quite significantly in how well they perform the encoding and utilize the advanced tools available in HEVC to obtain maximum compression efficiency without incurring prohibitive performance costs. An important factor in supporting live encoding is to be able to reach very good parallelization of the encoding tasks. This is not easy in video encoding which is very serial, and unevenly distributed by nature. At Beamr we have developed a unique architecture for the encoder, which enables very efficient deep parallelization making the best concurrent use of all available cores, enabling the world’s first live 8K HEVC encoder. In addition, Beamr5 is one of the few HEVC codecs that has wide support for HDR and can be used in conjunction with Dolby Vision, HDR10 and HLG - various HDR formats used around the globe. Beamr5 also has an extensive API enabling deep control of the encoder configuration to maximize the benefit for each and every application or use case, and our support team is always available to help users find the best setup for their specific needs.

Beamr4x is achieved by adding our Content Adaptive Bit-Rate rate control, to Beamr4. Video encoders generally operate either in a bit-rate driven mode, such as VBR (Variable Bit-Rate), or in a quality driven mode. The new mode introduced in Beamr4x, enables encode that is bit-rate driven, but where any bits that are redundant for the perceptual quality of the video are swiftly removed. This is done by first compressing the video frame according to the bit-rate considerations. Then, for each frame, more aggressive compression is applied, reducing the frame size in bits to the maximal extent that is possible without compromising perceptual quality of this video frame. This is done using our novel, award winning quality measure, which can reliably report the perceptual quality of the reduced size frame, relative to the initial encode, and make sure we get to the best compression point. While this may sound like a difficult problem to solve for each frame, using our sophisticated search algorithm, we actually guess the correct compression point on the first try more often than not, and on average require less than two attempts per frame. The resulting bitstream has the same perceptual quality as the VBR encode to target bitrate would have, while offering significant bitrate savings for many use cases.

Similarly, Beamr 5x combines Beamr 5 with CABR, enabling HEVC encoding with significant bitrate savings.

JPEGmini is a patented photo recompression technology, which significantly reduces the size of photographs without affecting their perceptual quality. JPEGmini is fully compliant with the JPEG standard, resulting in files that are fully compatible with any browser, photo software or device that support the standard JPEG format.

JPEGmini is capable of reducing the file size of standard JPEG photos by up to 50%, while the resulting photos are visually identical to the original photos. The JPEGmini algorithm imitates the perceptual qualities of the human visual system, ensuring that each photo is compressed to the maximum extent possible by removing redundancies, without creating any visual artifacts in the process. This enables fully automatic, maximal compression of photos with no human intervention required. JPEGmini has also been successfully tested with artificial intelligence/machine learning image sets in which a reduction of storage cost of up to 50% was obtained, without compromising classification and detection accuracy.

Our CABR technology, which has been integrated with Beamr software codecs to create Beamr4x and Beamr5x, has also been implemented as a silicon IP design, which can be integrated with any HW video encoder. This enhances the encoder by providing the additional, bitrate saving, encoding mode.

We are currently collaborating with Allegro DVT, a leading provider of video processing silicon IPs, to create the world’s first content-adaptive silicon IP encoder. By integrating our CABR silicon IP library with Allegro’s E2xx family of silicon video encoders, we aim to bring the optimization benefits to ASIC providers so they will be able to create high-performance, low latency video encoding chips that significantly reduce video bitrate without compromising quality.

The Allegro DVT E2xx/Beamr CABR solution is currently in the proof of concept stage of development and we expect that its development will take at least two years until a commercial version of the solution will be available for release.

As of February 21, 2023, we have three-full time and part-time sales and marketing employees and consultants, whose focus is to work together to accelerate the adoption of our existing products, to drive awareness and increase brand recognition of our products and technologies, to improve new customer acquisitions and to increase revenue from our existing customers.

For our next-generation Beamr HW-Accelerated Content Adaptive Encoding solution, we plan to launch our solution on the largest cloud platform, AWS, and after initial deployment on AWS to integrate our solution both with Azure and GCP. Since NVIDIA GPUs are widely adopted by cloud platforms, we believe that by making the Beamr HW-Accelerated Content Adaptive Encoding solution on cloud platforms will allow us to potentially access and acquire large numbers of new customers with relatively low sales investment through a self service, online sales process, with low touch pay as you go subscription service to our SaaS solution.

In addition, since the Beamr HW-Accelerated Content Adaptive Encoding solution is designed to be deployable across all environments, including public cloud, private cloud, on-premise and multi-cloud hybrid environments, we intend to focus our direct sales efforts on particular vertical markets that store large amounts of video including internet of things (IoT), smart cities, surveillance, autonomous cars, AgTech, and medical imaging.

We primarily market and license directly our existing products to media customers through outbound sales networking and customer and partner referrals. Our direct customers include category leaders such as Netflix, Snapfish, ViacomCBS, Wowza and Encoding.com. Our sales cycles for our existing products typically require a significant investment of time and a substantial expenditure of resources before we can realize revenue from the sale of our solutions, if any. Our typical sales cycle consists of a multi-month sales and development process involving our customers’ system designers and management and our sales personnel and software engineers. If successful, this process culminates in a customer’s decision to use our solutions in its system, which we refer to as an account win.

We focus our marketing efforts on the strength of our product and technology innovation, the value we provide and our domain expertise. We target the video engineering and information technology (IT) operations community through our marketing activities, using diverse tactics to connect with prospective customers, such as content marketing, events, social media, and public relations.

We intend to continue to invest in our sales and marketing capabilities to capitalize on our market opportunity.

We enter into written contracts with our customers pursuant to which we license the rights to use our software and provide maintenance and technical support. Our contracts are generally for one to three-year terms, with automatic renewal terms of one year terms. Some of our contracts are on a perpetual basis. We bill most of our customers annually in advance for the fees associated with the software licenses and related support. Some of our customers are billed on a quarterly basis.

Our research and development team is responsible for the design, development, testing and delivery of new technologies, features and integrations of our solutions, as well as the continued improvement and iteration of our existing products. It is also responsible for operating and scaling our solutions including the underlying infrastructure. Our research and development investments seek to drive core technology innovation and bring new products to market.

Members of our research and development team specialize in many functional areas including algorithms, machine learning, and electrical engineering as well as computer science. As we shift our focus to a SaaS based cloud service offering, we intend to make significant investments in a cloud-optimized delivery model while continuing to invest in our software offerings, both for standalone consumption and for deployment in hybrid environments.

Our main research and development facility is located in central Israel, which we believe is a strategic advantage for us, allowing us to leverage a talented pool of engineers and product experts.

As of February 21, 2023, we had 20 full-time and part-time employees dedicated to research and development. We have made substantial investments in product and technology development since our inception. Research and development expense totaled $2.7 million and $2 million in the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2021, respectively, and $1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022. Upon completion of our initial public offering, we expect our research and development expense to increase significantly for the foreseeable future as we enhance our existing product, develop new products for our current markets and introduce new products in new markets.

In 2016, we acquired Vanguard Video, a provider of HEVC and H.264 codec technologies, which enabled us to integrate our CABR technology with Vanguard Videos video encoders, which today are available as Beamr 4x and Beamr 5x.

While there are several companies offering video compression solutions such as MainConcept, Ateme, Ittiam, Visionular and open source (x264/x265), we believe there is currently no direct competitor with our content-adaptive video compression solutions. There are companies which offer software solutions for video optimization such as Harmonic and Elemental, and other companies offering storage optimization (but not involving video technologies) such as EMC and Seagate. In addition, for our quality measure, some of our current competitors include SSIMWave (SSIMPlus), Apple (AVQT), Google (YouVQ) and open source (VMAF). We operate in a highly specialized area that is evolving very quickly with rapid developments. In the future, competitors could develop products or solutions that compete with our video compression solutions. For example, the public cloud platforms such as AWS, Azure and GCP could in the future develop their own video optimization hardware accelerated solutions.

We believe the following competitive attributes are necessary for our solutions to successfully compete in the video compression market:

We believe that we compare favorably on the basis of the factors listed above. However, many of our competitors have substantially greater financial, technical, and marketing resources; relationships with large vendor partners; larger global presence; larger customer bases; longer operating histories; greater brand recognition; and more established relationships in the industry than we do. Furthermore, new entrants not currently considered to be competitors may enter the market through acquisitions, partnerships, or strategic relationships. See “Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Business and Industry—We may not be able to compete successfully against current and future competitors, some of whom have greater financial, technical, and other resources than we do. If we do not compete successfully, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be harmed.”

Intellectual property is an important aspect of our business and we seek protection for our intellectual property rights as appropriate. To establish and protect our proprietary rights, we rely on a combination of patent, copyright, trade secret and trademark laws, know-how and continuing innovation, and contractual restrictions such as confidentiality agreements, licenses, and intellectual property assignment agreements. We strive to protect the proprietary technologies that we believe are important to our business, including seeking and maintaining patent protection intended to cover our system.

As of February 21, 2023, our exclusively owned patent portfolio includes 53 issued patents (one of which is jointly owned), of which 33 are U.S. patents and 20 are foreign patents, and two U.S. patent applications are pending. The claims of these owned patents and patent applications are directed toward various aspects of our family of products, method of their manufacturing and research programs.

We pursue the registration of our domain names that we consider material to the marketing of our products, including the beamr.com.

We generally seek to enter into confidentiality agreements and proprietary rights agreements with our employees and consultants and to control access to, and distribution of, our proprietary information. However, we cannot guarantee that all applicable parties have executed such agreements. Such agreements can also be breached, and we may not have adequate remedies for such breach.

Intellectual property laws, procedures, and restrictions provide only limited protection, and any of our intellectual property rights may be challenged, invalidated, circumvented, infringed, misappropriated or otherwise violated. Furthermore, the laws of certain countries do not protect intellectual property and proprietary rights to the same extent as the laws of the United States, and we therefore may be unable to protect our proprietary technology in certain jurisdictions. Moreover, our platform and many of our products and services incorporate software components licensed to the general public under open-source software licenses. We obtain some components from software developed and released by contributors to independent open-source components of our platform. Open-source licenses grant licensees broad permissions to use, copy, modify and redistribute certain components of our platform. As a result, open-source development and licensing practices can limit the value of our proprietary software assets.

Despite our efforts to protect our proprietary rights, unauthorized parties may attempt to copy or obtain and use our technology to develop products and services with the same functionality as our platform. Policing unauthorized use of our technology is difficult. Our competitors could also independently develop technologies like ours, and our intellectual property rights may not be broad enough for us to prevent competitors from selling products and services incorporating those technologies. For more information regarding the risks relating to intellectual property, see “Risk Factors—Risks Related to Information Technology, Intellectual Property and Data Security and Privacy.”

We are subject to a number of U.S. federal and state and foreign laws and regulations that involve matters central to our business. These laws and regulations involve privacy, data protection, intellectual property, competition, consumer protection and other subjects. Many of the laws and regulations to which we are subject are still evolving and being tested in courts and could be interpreted in ways that could harm our business. In addition, the application and interpretation of these laws and regulations are often uncertain, particularly in the new and rapidly evolving industry in which we operate. Because global laws and regulations have continued to develop and evolve rapidly, it is possible that we may not be, or may not have been, compliant with each such applicable law or regulation.

As of February 21, 2023, we had seven employees in Israel, 17 employees who are employed by our wholly owned subsidiary in St. Petersburg, Russia and two employees who are employed by our wholly owned subsidiary in California, U.S. We are not bound by any collective bargaining agreements. We consider the relationship with our employees to be good. We also use outside consultants and contractors with special expertise and skills for limited engagements, including manufacturing and quality assurance. During the fourth quarter of 2022, we implemented a cost reduction plan, including layoffs of certain employees, reducing certain employees from full-time status to part-time status and salary and bonus reductions of our management and employees.

Our legal and commercial name is Beamr Imaging Ltd. We were incorporated in Israel on October 1, 2009 under the name I.C.V.T Ltd. On January 11, 2015, we changed our name to Beamr Imaging Ltd.

We have two wholly owned subsidiaries: Beamr, Inc. and Beamr Imaging RU LLC. Beamr, Inc. is our wholly owned subsidiary incorporated in 2012 in the State of Delaware. Beamr, Inc. is engaged in reselling our software and products in the U.S. and Canada. Beamr Imaging RU LLC is our wholly owned subsidiary, a limited Russian partnership formed in 2016. Beamr Imaging RU LLC is engaged in research and development for us.

In addition, we previously had a wholly owned subsidiary, Beamr UK Ltd, which was incorporated in 2017 in England. Beamr UK Ltd was engaged in reselling our software and products in the U.K. Beamr UK Ltd was dissolved in May 2020.

Our principle executive offices are located in Herzliya, Israel and consist of approximately 300 square feet of office space. Our wholly owned Russian subsidiary operates from a leased office located in St Petersburg, Russia. Our employees in our wholly owned US subsidiary operate primarily from their home offices. During 2020, we substantially reduced our office space globally and implemented working from home throughout the company.

We lease all of our facilities and do not own any real property. We intend to procure additional space in the future as we continue to add employees and expand geographically. We believe our facilities are adequate and suitable for our current needs and that, should it be needed, suitable additional or alternative space will be available to accommodate our operations.

We are not currently party to any pending material legal proceedings. From time to time, we may become a party to litigation incident to the ordinary course of our business. Regardless of the outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on us because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources and other factors.

The following table presents in the aggregate all compensation we paid to all of our directors and senior management as a group for the year ended December 31, 2022. The table does not include any amounts we paid to reimburse any of such persons for costs incurred in providing us with services during this period.

All amounts reported in the table below reflect our costs in U.S. dollars. Amounts paid in NIS are translated into U.S. dollars at the average annual exchange rate of NIS 3.35 = U.S. $1.00, based on the average representative rate of exchange between the NIS and the U.S. dollar as reported by the Bank of Israel during such period of time.

For so long as we qualify as a foreign private issuer, we will not be required to comply with the proxy rules applicable to U.S. domestic companies regarding disclosure of the compensation of certain executive officers on an individual basis. Pursuant to the Companies Law, we will be required, after we become a public company, to disclose the annual compensation of our five most highly compensated officers on an individual basis. This disclosure will not be as extensive as that required of a U.S. domestic issuer. We intend to commence providing such disclosure, at the latest, in the annual proxy statement for our first annual meeting of shareholders following the closing of this offering, which will be filed under cover of a report on Form 6-K.

We have entered into written employment or consulting agreements with each of our executive officers. All of these agreements contain customary provisions regarding noncompetition, confidentiality of information and assignment of inventions. However, the enforceability of the noncompetition provisions may be limited under applicable law. In addition, we intend to enter into indemnification agreements, subject to the listing of our securities on the Nasdaq Capital Market, with each executive officer, director, and director nominee pursuant to which we will indemnify each of them up to a certain amount and to the extent that these liabilities are not covered by directors and officers insurance.

For a description of the terms of our options and option plans, see “Management—Share Option Plans” below.

Other than with respect to our directors that are also executive officers, we do not have written agreements with any director providing for benefits upon the termination of his employment with our company.

During the term of office as a director, each non-executive director shall be entitled to receive an annual remuneration payment of $20,000 per full year (payable in four (4) equal payments, one for each calendar quarter ending on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year), or a pro rata thereof. In addition, each non-executive director shall also be entitled to receive a payment of $750.00 for each face-to-face or zoom meeting of the board of directors or a committee thereof, and a payment of $500.00 for each written resolution of the board of birectors or a committee thereof.

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act, as well as related rules subsequently implemented by the SEC, require foreign private issuers, such as us, to comply with various corporate governance practices. In addition, following the listing of the ordinary shares on Nasdaq, we will be required to comply with the Nasdaq Stock Market rules. Under those rules, we may elect to follow certain corporate governance practices permitted under the Companies Law in lieu of compliance with corresponding corporate governance requirements otherwise imposed by the Nasdaq Stock Market rules for U.S. domestic issuers.

In accordance with Israeli law and practice and subject to the exemption set forth in Rule 5615 of the Nasdaq Stock Market rules, we have elected to follow the provisions of the Companies Law, rather than the Nasdaq Stock Market rules, with respect to the following requirements:

Upon the consummation of this offering, our board of directors will consist of five members. We believe that Tal Barnoach, Lluis Pedragosa, Yair Shoham and Osnat Michaeli are “independent” for purposes of the Nasdaq Stock Market rules. Our amended and restated articles of association provide that the number of board of directors’ members shall be set by the general meeting of the shareholders provided that it will consist of not less than five and not more than ten. Pursuant to the Companies Law, the management of our business is vested in our board of directors. Our board of directors may exercise all powers and may take all actions that are not specifically granted to our shareholders or to management. Our executive officers are responsible for our day-to-day management and have individual responsibilities established by our board of directors. Our Chief Executive Officer is appointed by, and serves at the discretion of, our board of directors, subject to the service agreement that we have entered into with him. All other executive officers are appointed by our Chief Executive Officer. Their terms of employment are subject to the approval of the board of directors, and are subject to the terms of any applicable employment agreements that we may enter into with them.

Each director, except external directors that may be required to be appointed under the Companies Law under certain circumstances, will hold office pursuant to the Companies Law, until the next annual general meeting of our shareholders following his or her appointment, or until he or she resigns or unless he or she is removed by a majority vote of our shareholders at a general meeting of our shareholders or upon the occurrence of certain events, in accordance with the Companies Law and our amended and restated articles of association.

In addition, if a director’s office becomes vacant, the remaining serving directors may continue to act in any manner, provided that their number is of the minimal number specified in our amended and restated articles of association. If the number of serving directors is lower than such minimum number, then our board of directors may only act in an emergency or to fill the office of director which has become vacant up to a number equal to the minimum number provided for pursuant to our amended and restated articles of association, or in order to call a general meeting of our shareholders for the purpose of electing directors to fill any of our vacancies . External directors may be elected for up to two additional three-year terms after their initial three-year term under the circumstances described below, with certain exceptions as described in “External Directors” below. External directors may be removed from office only under the limited circumstances set forth in the Companies Law.

Under the Companies Law, any shareholder holding at least one percent of our outstanding voting power may nominate a director. However, any such shareholder may make such a nomination only if a written notice of such shareholder’s intent to make such nomination has been given to our board of directors. Any such notice must include certain information, including the consent of the proposed director nominee to serve as our director if elected, and a declaration that the nominee signed declaring that he or she possesses the requisite skills and has the availability to carry out his or her duties. Additionally, the nominee must provide details of such skills, and demonstrate an absence of any limitation under the Companies Law that may prevent his or her election, and affirm that all of the required election-information is provided to us, pursuant to the Companies Law.

Under the Companies Law, our board of directors must determine the minimum number of directors who are required to have accounting and financial expertise. In determining the number of directors required to have such expertise, our board of directors must consider, among other things, the type and size of the company and the scope and complexity of its operations. Our board of directors has determined that the minimum number of directors of our company who are required to have accounting and financial expertise is two.

The board of directors must elect one director to serve as the chairman of the board of directors to preside at the meetings of the board of directors, and may also remove that director as chairman. Pursuant to the Companies Law, neither the chief executive officer nor any of his or her relatives is permitted to serve as the chairman of the board of directors, and a company may not vest the chairman or any of his or her relatives with the chief executive officer’s authorities. In addition, a person who reports, directly or indirectly, to the chief executive officer may not serve as the chairman of the board of directors; the chairman may not be vested with authorities of a person who reports, directly or indirectly, to the chief executive officer; and the chairman may not serve in any other position in the company or a controlled company, but he or she may serve as a director or chairman of a controlled company. However, the Companies Law permits a company’s shareholders to determine, for a period not exceeding three years from each such determination, that the chairman or his or her relative may serve as chief executive officer or be vested with the chief executive officer’s authorities, and that the chief executive officer or his or her relative may serve as chairman or be vested with the chairman’s authorities. Such determination of a company’s shareholders requires either: (1) the approval of at least a majority of the shares of those shareholders present and voting on the matter (other than controlling shareholders and those having a personal interest in the determination) (shares held by abstaining shareholders shall not be considered); or (2) that the total number of shares opposing such determination does not exceed 2% of the total voting power in the company.

The board of directors may, subject to the provisions of the Companies Law, delegate any or all of its powers to committees of the board, and it may, from time to time, revoke such delegation or alter the composition of any such committees, subject to certain limitations. Unless otherwise expressly provided by the board of directors, the committees shall not be empowered to further delegate such powers. The composition and duties of our audit committee, financial statement examination committee and compensation committee that will be established upon the listing of our ordinary shares on the Nasdaq Capital Market, are described below.

The board of directors oversees how management monitors compliance with our risk management policies and procedures, and reviews the adequacy of the risk management framework in relation to the risks faced by us. The board of directors is assisted in its oversight role by an internal auditor. The internal auditor undertakes both regular and ad hoc reviews of risk management controls and procedures, the results of which will be reported to our audit committee.

Under the Companies Law, companies incorporated under the laws of the State of Israel that are publicly traded, including Israeli companies with shares listed on the Nasdaq, are required to appoint at least two external directors who meet the qualification requirements set forth in the Companies Law. The definitions of an external director under the Companies Law and independent director under Nasdaq Stock Market rules are similar such that it would generally be expected that our two external directors will also comply with the independence requirement under Nasdaq Stock Market rules.

A person may not be appointed as an external director if the person is a relative of a controlling shareholder or if on the date of the person’s appointment or within the preceding two years the person or his or her relatives, partners, employers or anyone to whom that person is subordinate, whether directly or indirectly, or entities under the person’s control have or had any affiliation with any of the following, or an affiliated entity: (1) us; (2) any person or entity controlling us on the date of such appointment; (3) any relative of a controlling shareholder; or (4) any entity controlled, on the date of such appointment or within the preceding two years, by us or by a controlling shareholder. If there is no controlling shareholder or any shareholder holding 25% or more of voting rights in the company, a person may not be appointed as an external director if the person has any affiliation to the chairman of the board of directors, the chief executive officer (referred to in the Companies Law as a general manager), any shareholder holding 5% or more of the company’s shares or voting rights or the senior financial officer as of the date of the person’s appointment.

The term “controlling shareholder” means a shareholder with the ability to direct the activities of the company, other than by virtue of being an office holder. A shareholder is presumed to have “control” of the company and thus to be a controlling shareholder of the company if the shareholder holds 50% or more of the “means of control” of the company. “Means of control” is defined as (1) the right to vote at a general meeting of a company or a corresponding body of another corporation; or (2) the right to appoint directors of the corporation or its general manager. For the purpose of approving related-party transactions, the term also includes any shareholder that holds 25% or more of the voting rights of the company if the company has no shareholder that owns more than 50% of its voting rights. For the purpose of determining the holding percentage stated above, two or more shareholders who have a personal interest in a transaction that is brought for the company’s approval are deemed as joint holders.

The term “relative” is defined as a spouse, sibling, parent, grandparent, descendant, spouse’s descendant, sibling and parent and the spouse of each of the foregoing.

The term “office holder” is defined as a general manager, chief business manager, deputy general manager, vice general manager, director or manager directly subordinate to the general manager or any other person assuming the responsibilities of any of the foregoing positions, without regard to such person’s title.

A person may not serve as an external director if that person or that person’s relative, partner, employer, a person to whom such person is subordinate (directly or indirectly) or any entity under the person’s control has a business or professional relationship with any entity that has an affiliation with any affiliated entity, even if such relationship is intermittent (excluding insignificant relationships). Additionally, any person who has received compensation intermittently (excluding insignificant relationships) other than compensation permitted under the Companies Law may not continue to serve as an external director.

No person can serve as an external director if the person’s position or other affairs create, or may create, a conflict of interest with the person’s responsibilities as a director or may otherwise interfere with the person’s ability to serve as a director or if such a person is an employee of the Israeli Securities Authority or of an Israeli stock exchange. If at the time an external director is appointed all current members of the board of directors, who are not controlling shareholders or relatives of controlling shareholders, are of the same gender, then the external director to be appointed must be of the other gender. In addition, a person who is a director of a company may not be elected as an external director of another company.

According to regulations promulgated under the Companies law, at least one of the external directors is required to have “financial and accounting expertise,” unless another member of the audit committee, who is an independent director under the Nasdaq Stock Market rules, has “financial and accounting expertise,” and the other external director or directors are required to have “professional expertise.” An external director may not be appointed to an additional term unless: (1) such director has “accounting and financial expertise;” or (2) he or she has “professional expertise,” and on the date of appointment for another term there is another external director who has “accounting and financial expertise” and the number of “accounting and financial experts” on the board of directors is at least equal to the minimum number determined appropriate by the board of directors.

The regulations promulgated under the Companies Law define an external director with requisite professional qualifications as a director who satisfies one of the following requirements: (1) the director holds an academic degree in either economics, business administration, accounting, law or public administration, (2) the director either holds an academic degree in any other field or has completed another form of higher education in the company’s primary field of business or in an area which is relevant to his or her office as an external director in the company, or (3) the director has at least five years of experience serving in any one of the following, or at least five years of cumulative experience serving in two or more of the following capacities: (a) a senior business management position in a company with a substantial scope of business, (b) a senior position in the company’s primary field of business or (c) a senior position in public administration.

Until the lapse of a two-year period from the date that an external director of a company ceases to act in such capacity, the company in which such external director served, and its controlling shareholder or any entity under control of such controlling shareholder may not, directly or indirectly, grant such former external director, or his or her spouse or child, any benefit, including by way of (i) the appointment of such former director or his or her spouse or his child as an officer in the company or in an entity controlled by the company’s controlling shareholder, (ii) the employment of such former director, and (iii) the engagement, directly or indirectly, of such former director as a provider of professional services for compensation, directly or indirectly, including via an entity under his or her control. With respect to a relative who is not a spouse or a child, such limitations only apply for one year from the date such external director ceased to be engaged in such capacity.

The provisions of the Companies Law set forth special approval requirements for the election of external directors. External directors must be elected by a majority vote of the shares present and voting at a shareholders meeting, provided that either:

The initial term of an external director is three years. Thereafter, an external director may be reelected by shareholders to serve in that capacity for up to two additional three-year terms, provided that:

The term of office for external directors for Israeli companies traded on certain foreign stock exchanges, including the Nasdaq Marketplace Rules, may be extended indefinitely in increments of additional three-year terms, in each case provided that the audit committee and the board of directors of the company confirm that, in light of the external director’s expertise and special contribution to the work of the board of directors and its committees, the reelection for such additional period(s) is beneficial to the company, and provided that the external director is reelected subject to the same shareholder vote requirements as if elected for the first time (as described above).

External directors may be removed from office by a special general meeting of shareholders called by the board of directors, which approves such dismissal by the same shareholder vote percentage required for their election, after receiving the board of directors arguments for such removal, or by a court, in each case, only under limited circumstances, including ceasing to meet the statutory qualifications for appointment, or violating their duty of loyalty to the company. If an external directorship becomes vacant and there are fewer than two external directors on the board of directors at the time, then the board of directors is required under the Companies Law to call a shareholders meeting as soon as practicable to appoint a replacement external director.

Each committee of the board of directors that is authorized to exercise the powers of the board of directors must include at least one external director, except that the audit committee and the compensation committee must include all external directors then serving on the board of directors.

External directors may be compensated only in accordance with regulations adopted under the Companies Law.

Our amended and restated articles of association provide, as allowed by the Companies Law, that any director may, subject to the conditions set thereto, appoint a person as an alternate to act in his place, to remove the alternate and appoint another in his place and to appoint an alternate in place of an alternate whose office is vacated for any reason whatsoever. Under the Companies Law, a person who is not qualified to be appointed as a director, a person who is already serving as a director or a person who is already serving as an alternate director for another director, may not be appointed as an alternate director. Nevertheless, a director who is already serving as a director may be appointed as an alternate director for a member of a committee of the board of directors so long as he or she is not already serving as a member of such committee, and if the alternate director is to replace an external director, he or she is required to be an external director and to have either “financial and accounting expertise” or “professional expertise,” depending on the qualifications of the external director he or she is replacing. A person who does not have the requisite “financial and accounting experience” or the “professional expertise,” depending on the qualifications of the external director he or she is replacing, may not be appointed as an alternate director for an external director. A person who is not qualified to be appointed as an independent director, pursuant to the Companies Law, may not be appointed as an alternate director of an independent director qualified as such under the Companies Law. Unless the appointing director limits the time or scope of the appointment, the appointment is effective for all purposes until the appointing director ceases to be a director or terminates the appointment.

Upon completion of this offering, our board of directors will establish two standing committees, the audit committee and the compensation committee.

Under the Companies Law, we will be required to appoint an audit committee subject to the listing of our ordinary shares on the Nasdaq Capital Market. The audit committee must be comprised of at least three directors, including all of the external directors, if applicable, (one of whom must serve as chair of the committee). The audit committee may not include the chairman of the board; a controlling shareholder of the company or a relative of a controlling shareholder; a director employed by or providing services on a regular basis to the company, to a controlling shareholder or to an entity controlled by a controlling shareholder; or a director who derives most of his or her income from a controlling shareholder.

Our audit committee will be comprised of Lluis Pedragosa, Yair Shoham and Osnat Michaeli.

Pursuant to the Companies Law, our audit committee may not conduct any discussions or approve any actions requiring its approval (see “Management—Board Practices—Approval of Related Party Transactions under Israeli Law”), unless at the time of the approval a majority of the committee’s members are present.

Our board of directors intends to adopt an audit committee charter to be effective upon the listing of our ordinary shares on the Nasdaq Capital Market setting forth, among others, the responsibilities of the audit committee consistent with the rules of the SEC and Nasdaq Listing Rules (in addition to the requirements for such committee under the Companies Law), including, among others, the following:

Under the Nasdaq Stock Market rules, we are required to maintain an audit committee consisting of at least three members, all of whom are independent and are financially literate and one of whom has accounting or related financial management expertise.

As noted above, the members of our audit committee will include Lluis Pedragosa, Yair Shoham and Osnat Michaeli. Osnat Michaeli will initially serve as the chairman of our audit committee. All members of our audit committee will meet the requirements for financial literacy under the Nasdaq Stock Market rules. Our board of directors has determined that each member of our audit committee will be an audit committee financial expert as defined by the SEC rules and has the requisite financial experience as defined by the Nasdaq Stock Market rules.

Under the Companies Law, our audit committee will also carry out the duties of a financial statement examination committee. As such, the audit committee will be responsible for: (i) estimations and assessments made in connection with the preparation of financial statements; (ii) internal controls related to the financial statements; (iii) completeness and propriety of the disclosure in the financial statements; (iv) the accounting policies adopted and the accounting treatments implemented in material matters of the company; and (v) value evaluations, including the assumptions and assessments on which evaluations are based and the supporting data in the financial statements.

Under the Companies Law, the board of directors of any public company must establish a compensation committee. The compensation committee must be comprised of at least three directors, including all of the external directors (if any). The compensation committee is subject to the same Companies Law restrictions as the audit committee as to: (a) who may not be a member of the committee; and (b) who may not be present during committee deliberations as described above.

Our compensation committee, acting pursuant to a written charter, will consist of Tal Barnoach, Yair Shoham and Osnat Michaeli. Our compensation committee will comply with the provisions of the Companies Law, the regulations promulgated thereunder on all aspects referring to its independence, authorities and practice. Our compensation committee will follow home country practice as opposed to complying with the compensation committee membership and charter requirements prescribed under the Nasdaq Stock Market rules.

Our compensation committee will review and recommend to our board of directors: with respect to our executive officers’ and directors’: (1) annual base compensation (2) annual incentive bonus, including the specific goals and amounts; (3) equity compensation; (4) employment agreements, severance arrangements, and change in control agreements and provisions; (5) retirement grants and/or retirement bonuses; and (6) any other benefits, compensation, compensation policies or arrangements.

The duties of the compensation committee include the recommendation to the company’s board of directors of a policy regarding the terms of engagement of office holders, to which we refer as a compensation policy. Such policy must be adopted by the company’s board of directors, after considering the recommendations of the compensation committee. The compensation policy is then brought for approval by our shareholders, which requires a special majority (see “Management—Board Practices—Approval of Related Party Transactions under Israeli Law”). Under the Companies Law, the board of directors may adopt the compensation policy if it is not approved by the shareholders, provided that after the shareholders oppose the approval of such policy, the compensation committee and the board of directors revisit the matter and determine that adopting the compensation policy would be in the best interests of the company. Under the Companies Law, we are required to adopt an office holder compensation policy no later than 9 months from the consummation of this offering.

The compensation policy must serve as the basis for decisions concerning the financial terms of employment or engagement of executive officers and directors, including exculpation, insurance, indemnification or any monetary payment or obligation of payment in respect of employment or engagement. The compensation policy must relate to certain factors, including advancement of the company’s objectives, the company’s business and its long-term strategy, and creation of appropriate incentives for executives. It must also consider, among other things, the company’s risk management, size and the nature of its operations. The compensation policy must furthermore consider the following additional factors:

The compensation policy must also consider appropriate incentives from a long-term perspective.

The compensation committee will be responsible for: (1) recommending the compensation policy to a company’s board of directors for its approval (and subsequent approval by the shareholders); and (2) duties related to the compensation policy and to the compensation of a company’s office holders, including:

Our compensation policy will be designed to promote our long-term goals, work plan and policy, retain, motivate and incentivize our directors and executive officers, while considering the risks that our activities involve, our size, the nature and scope of our activities and the contribution of an officer to the achievement of our goals and maximization of profits, and align the interests of our directors and executive officers with our long-term performance. To that end, a portion of an executive officer compensation package is targeted to reflect our short and long-term goals, as well as the executive officer’s individual performance. On the other hand, our compensation policy will include measures designed to reduce the executive officer’s incentives to take excessive risks that may harm us in the long-term, such as limits on the value of cash bonuses and equity-based compensation, limitations on the ratio between the variable and the total compensation of an executive officer and minimum vesting periods for equity-based compensation.

Our compensation policy will also address our executive officer’s individual characteristics (such as his or her respective position, education, scope of responsibilities and contribution to the attainment of our goals) as the basis for compensation variation among our executive officers, and considers the internal ratios between compensation of our executive officers and directors and other employees. For example, the compensation that may be granted to an executive officer may include: base salary, annual bonuses, equity-based compensation, benefits and retirement and termination of service arrangements. All cash bonuses are limited to a maximum amount linked to the executive officer’s base salary. In addition, our compensation policy will provide for maximum permitted ratios between the total variable (cash bonuses and equity-based compensation) and non-variable (base salary) compensation components, in accordance with an officer’s respective position with the company.

An annual cash bonus may be awarded to executive officers upon the attainment of pre-set periodic objectives and individual targets. The annual cash bonus that may be granted to executive officers other than our chairman or Chief Executive Officer may be based entirely on a discretionary evaluation. Our Chief Executive Officer will be entitled to recommend performance objectives to such executive officers, and such performance objectives will be approved by our compensation committee (and, if required by law, by our board of directors).

The performance measurable objectives of our chairman and Chief Executive Officer will be determined annually by our compensation committee and board of directors. A less significant portion of the chairman’s and/or the Chief Executive Officer’s annual cash bonus may be based on a discretionary evaluation of the chairman’s or the Chief Executive Officer’s respective overall performance by the compensation committee and the board of directors based on quantitative and qualitative criteria.

The equity-based compensation under our compensation policy for our executive officers (including members of our board of directors) will be designed in a manner consistent with the underlying objectives in determining the base salary and the annual cash bonus, with its main objectives being to enhance the alignment between the executive officers’ interests with our long-term interests and those of our shareholders and to strengthen the retention and the motivation of executive officers in the long term. Our compensation policy will provide for executive officer compensation in the form of share options or other equity-based awards, such as restricted shares and phantom, options, in accordance with our equity incentive plan then in place. Share options granted to executive officers shall be subject to vesting periods in order to promote long-term retention of the awarded executive officers. The equity-based compensation shall be granted from time to time and be individually determined and awarded according to the performance, educational background, prior business experience, qualifications, role and the personal responsibilities of the executive officer.

In addition, our compensation policy will contain compensation recovery provisions which allows us under certain conditions to recover bonuses paid in excess, will enable our Chief Executive Officer to approve an immaterial change in the terms of employment of an executive officer (provided that the changes of the terms of employment are in accordance our compensation policy) and will allow us to exculpate, indemnify and insure our executive officers and directors subject to certain limitations set forth thereto.

Our compensation policy will also provide for compensation to the members of our board of directors either: (i) in accordance with the amounts provided in the Companies Regulations (Rules Regarding the Compensation and Expenses of an External Director) of 2000, as amended by the Companies Regulations (Relief for Public Companies Traded in Stock Exchange Outside of Israel) of 2000, as such regulations may be amended from time to time; or (ii) in accordance with the amounts determined in our compensation policy.

Under the Companies Law, the board of directors of an Israeli public company must appoint an internal auditor nominated by the audit committee. We intend to appoint our internal auditor within 90 days following the consummation of this offering. The role of the internal auditor is to examine, among other things, whether a company’s actions comply with the law and proper business procedure. The chairman of the Board, or whoever the Board of the Company determines from time to time is required to oversee the activities, and to assess the performance of the internal auditor as well as to review the internal auditor’s work plan. An internal auditor may not be an interested party or office holder, or a relative of any interested party or office holder, and may not be a member of the company’s independent accounting firm or its representative. The Companies Law defines an interested party as a holder of 5% or more of the outstanding shares or voting rights of a company, any person or entity that has the right to appoint at least one director or the general manager of the company or any person who serves as a director or as the general manager of a company. Our internal auditor is not our employee, but partner of a firm which specializes in internal auditing.

Under the Companies Law, remuneration of directors is subject to the approval of the compensation committee, thereafter by the board of directors and thereafter, unless exempted under the regulations promulgated under the Companies Law, by the general meeting of the shareholders. In case the remuneration of the directors is in accordance with regulations applicable to remuneration of the external directors then such remuneration shall be exempt from the approval of the general meeting. Where the director is also a controlling shareholder, the requirements for approval of transactions with controlling shareholders apply.

The Companies Law imposes a duty of care and a duty of loyalty on all office holders of a company.

The duty of care requires an office holder to act with the level of care with which a reasonable office holder in the same position would have acted under the same circumstances. The duty of care of an office holder includes a duty to use reasonable means to obtain:

The duty of loyalty of an office holder requires an office holder to act in good faith and for the benefit of the company, and includes a duty to:

Under the Companies Law, a company may obtain insurance for any of its office holders against the following liabilities incurred due to acts he or she performed as an office holder, if and to the extent provided for in the company’s articles of association:

Prior to consummation of the offering, we intend to purchase increased insurance coverage for a company of our size.

The Companies Law and the Israeli Securities Law, 5728-1968, or the Securities Law, provide that a company may indemnify an office holder against the following liabilities and expenses incurred for acts performed by him or her as an office holder, either pursuant to an undertaking made in advance of an event or following an event, provided its articles of association include a provision authorizing such indemnification:

The Companies Law also permits a company to undertake in advance to indemnify an office holder, provided that if such indemnification relates to financial liability imposed on him or her, as described above, then the undertaking should be limited and shall detail the following foreseen events and amount or criterion:

We intend to enter, into indemnification agreements with all of our directors and with all members of our senior management subject to the listing of our securities on the Nasdaq Capital Market. Each such indemnification agreement will provide the office holder with indemnification permitted under applicable law and up to a certain amount, and to the extent that these liabilities are not covered by directors and officers insurance.

Under the Companies Law, an Israeli company may not exculpate an office holder from liability for a breach of his or her duty of loyalty, but may exculpate in advance an office holder from his or her liability to the company, in whole or in part, for damages caused to the company as a result of a breach of his or her duty of care (other than in relation to distributions), but only if a provision authorizing such exculpation is included in its articles of association. Our amended and restated articles of association provide that we may exculpate, in whole or in part, any office holder from liability to us for damages caused to the company as a result of a breach of his or her duty of care, other than a breach of the duty of care in a distribution. Subject to the aforesaid limitations, under the indemnification agreements we intend to enter, we will exculpate and release our office holders from any and all liability to us related to any breach by them of their duty of care to us to the fullest extent permitted by law.

The Companies Law provides that we may not exculpate or indemnify an office holder nor enter into an insurance contract that would provide coverage for any liability incurred as a result of any of the following: (1) a breach by the office holder of his or her duty of loyalty unless (in the case of indemnity or insurance only, but not exculpation) the office holder acted in good faith and had a reasonable basis to believe that the act would not prejudice us; (2) a breach by the office holder of his or her duty of care if the breach was carried out intentionally or recklessly (as opposed to merely negligently); (3) any act or omission committed with the intent to derive an illegal personal benefit; or (4) any fine, monetary sanction, penalty or forfeit levied against the office holder.

Under the Companies Law, exculpation, indemnification and insurance of office holders in a public company must be approved by the compensation committee and the board of directors and, with respect to certain office holders or under certain circumstances, also by the shareholders.

Our amended and restated articles of association permit us to exculpate (subject to the aforesaid limitation), indemnify and insure our office holders to the fullest extent permitted or to be permitted by the Companies Law.

The foregoing descriptions summarize the material aspects and practices of our board of directors. For additional details, we also refer you to the full text of the Companies Law, as well as of our amended and restated articles of association, which are exhibits to this registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, and are incorporated herein by reference.

There are no service contracts between us or our Subsidiary, on the one hand, and our directors in their capacity as directors, on the other hand, providing for benefits upon termination of service.

(1)		Independent director (as defined under Nasdaq Stock Market Listing Rules).
(2)		External director (as defined under the Companies Law)

	●	Compensation of officers. Israeli law and our amended and restated articles of association do not require that the independent members of our board of directors (or a compensation committee composed solely of independent members of our board of directors) determine an executive officer’s compensation, as is generally required under the Nasdaq Stock Market rules with respect to the chief executive officer and all other executive officers. Instead, compensation of executive officers is determined and approved by our board of directors, and in certain circumstances by our shareholders, either in consistency with our office holder compensation policy or, in special circumstances in deviation therefrom, taking into account certain considerations stated in the Companies Law. See “Management—Board Practices—Approval of Related Party Transactions under Israeli Law” for additional information.

	●	Shareholder approval. We will seek shareholder approval for all corporate actions requiring such approval under the requirements of the Companies Law, rather than seeking approval for corporation actions in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635. In particular, under this Nasdaq Stock Market rule, shareholder approval is generally required for: (i) an acquisition of shares/assets of another company that involves the issuance of 20% or more of the acquirer’s shares or voting rights or if a director, officer or 5% shareholder has greater than a 5% interest in the target company or the consideration to be received; (ii) the issuance of shares leading to a change of control; (iii) adoption/amendment of equity compensation arrangements (although under the provisions of the Companies Law there is no requirement for shareholder approval for the adoption/amendment of the equity compensation plan); and (iv) issuances of 20% or more of the shares or voting rights (including securities convertible into, or exercisable for, equity) of a listed company via a private placement (and/or via sales by directors/officers/5% shareholders) if such equity is issued (or sold) at below the greater of the book or market value of shares. By contrast, under the Companies Law, shareholder approval is required for, among other things: (i) transactions with directors concerning the terms of their service or indemnification, exemption and insurance for their service (or for any other position that they may hold at a company), for which approvals of the compensation committee, board of directors and shareholders are all required, (ii) extraordinary transactions with controlling shareholders of publicly held companies, which require the special approval, and (iii) terms of employment or other engagement of the controlling shareholder of us or such controlling shareholder’s relative, which require special approval. In addition, under the Companies Law, a merger requires approval of the shareholders of each of the merging companies.

	●	Nomination of Directors. We will not have to comply with the requirements that we have a nominating committee composed entirely of independent directors with a written charter addressing the committee’s purpose and responsibilities.

	●	Director Independence. Israeli law does not require that a majority of the directors serving on our board of directors be “independent,” as defined under Nasdaq Stock Market Rule 5605(a)(2), and rather requires we have at least two external directors who meet the requirements of the Companies Law, as described below under “Management—Board Practices—External Directors.” The definition of independent director under Nasdaq Stock Market rules and external director under the Companies Law overlap to a significant degree such that we would generally expect the directors serving as external directors to satisfy the requirements to be independent under Nasdaq Stock Market rules. However, it is possible for a director to qualify as an ‘‘external director’’ under the Companies Law without qualifying as an ‘‘independent director’’ under the Nasdaq Stock Market rules, or vice-versa. Notwithstanding Israeli law, we believe that a majority of our directors will be “independent” under the Nasdaq Stock Market rules upon completion of this offering. We are required, however, to ensure that all members of our Audit Committee are “independent” under the applicable Nasdaq and SEC criteria for independence (as we cannot exempt ourselves from compliance with that SEC independence requirement, despite our status as a foreign private issuer), and we must also ensure that a majority of the members of our Audit Committee are “independent directors” as defined in the Companies Law. Furthermore, Israeli law does not require, nor do our independent directors conduct, regularly scheduled meetings at which only they are present, which the Nasdaq Stock Market rules otherwise require

	●	Approval of Related Party Transactions. All related party transactions are approved in accordance with the requirements and procedures for approval of interested party acts and transaction as set forth in the Companies Law, which requires the approval of the audit committee, or the compensation committee, as the case may be, the board of directors and shareholders, as may be applicable, for specified transactions, rather than approval by the audit committee or other independent body of our board of directors as required under the Nasdaq Stock Market rules. See “Management—Board Practices—Approval of Related Party Transactions under Israeli Law” for additional information.

	●	Annual Shareholders Meeting. As opposed to the Nasdaq Stock Market Rule 5620(a), which mandates that a listed company hold its annual shareholders meeting within one year of the company’s fiscal year-end, we are required, under the Companies Law, to hold an annual shareholders meeting each calendar year and within 15 months of the last annual shareholders meeting.

	●	Distribution of periodic reports to shareholders; proxy solicitation. As opposed to the Nasdaq Stock Market rules, which require listed issuers to make such reports available to shareholders in one of a number of specific manners, Israeli law does not require us to distribute periodic reports directly to shareholders, and the generally accepted business practice in Israel is not to distribute such reports to shareholders but to make such reports available through a public website. In addition to making such reports available on a public website, we currently make our audited consolidated financial statements available to our shareholders at our offices and will only mail such reports to shareholders upon request. As a foreign private issuer, we are generally exempt from the SEC’s proxy solicitation rules.

	(i)	determining whether there are deficiencies in the business management practices of our company, and making recommendations to the board of directors to improve such practices;

	(ii)	determining whether to approve certain related party transactions (including transactions in which an office holder has a personal interest and whether such transaction is extraordinary or material under Companies Law) and establishing the approval process for certain transactions with a controlling shareholder or in which a controlling shareholder has a personal interest (see “Management—Board Practices—Approval of Related Party Transactions under Israeli Law”);

	(iii)	determining the approval process for transactions that are “non-negligible” (i.e., transactions with a controlling shareholder that are classified by the audit committee as non-negligible, even though they are not deemed extraordinary transactions), as well as determining which types of transactions would require the approval of the audit committee, optionally based on criteria which may be determined annually in advance by the audit committee;

	(iv)	examining our internal controls and internal auditor’s performance, including whether the internal auditor has sufficient resources and tools to dispose of its responsibilities;

	(v)	examining the scope of our auditor’s work and compensation and submitting a recommendation with respect thereto to our board of directors or shareholders, depending on which of them is considering the appointment of our auditor;

	(vi)	establishing procedures for the handling of employees’ complaints as to deficiencies in the management of our business and the protection to be provided to such employees; and

	(vii)	where the board of directors approves the working plan of the internal auditor, examining such working plan before its submission to the board of directors and proposing amendments thereto.

	●	recommending the engagement or termination of the person filling the office of our internal auditor, reviewing the services provided by our internal auditor and reviewing effectiveness of our system of internal control over financial reporting;
	●	recommending the terms of audit and non-audit services provided by the independent registered public accounting firm for pre-approval by our board of directors; and
	●	reviewing and monitoring, if applicable, legal matters with significant impact, finding of regulatory authorities’ findings, receive reports regarding irregularities and legal compliance, acting according to “whistleblower policy” and recommend to our board of directors if so required.

	●	the education, skills, expertise and accomplishments of the relevant director or executive;
	●	the director’s or executive’s roles and responsibilities and prior compensation agreements with him or her;
	●	the relationship between the cost of the terms of service of an office holder and the average median compensation of the other employees of the company (including those employed through manpower companies), including the impact of disparities in salary upon work relationships in the company;
	●	the possibility of reducing variable compensation at the discretion of the board of directors; and the possibility of setting a limit on the exercise value of non-cash variable compensation; and
	●	as to severance compensation, the period of service of the director or executive, the terms of his or her compensation during such service period, the company’s performance during that period of service, the person’s contribution towards the company’s achievement of its goals and the maximization of its profits, and the circumstances under which the person is leaving the company.

	●	with the exception of office holders who report directly to the chief executive officer, the link between variable compensation and long-term performance and measurable criteria;
	●	the relationship between variable and fixed compensation, and the ceiling for the value of variable compensation at the time of its grant;
	●	the conditions under which a director or executive would be required to repay compensation paid to him or her if it was later shown that the data upon which such compensation was based was inaccurate and was required to be restated in the company’s financial statements;
	●	the minimum holding or vesting period for variable, equity-based compensation; and
	●	maximum limits for severance compensation.

	●	recommending whether a compensation policy should continue in effect, if the then-current policy has a term of greater than three years (approval of either a new compensation policy or the continuation of an existing compensation policy must in any case occur every three years);
	●	recommending to the board of directors periodic updates to the compensation policy;
	●	assessing implementation of the compensation policy;
	●	determining whether the terms of compensation of certain office holders of the company need not be brought to approval of the shareholders; and
	●	determining whether to approve the terms of compensation of office holders that require the committee’s approval.

	●	information on the advisability of a given action brought for his approval or performed by him by virtue of his position; and
	●	all other important information pertaining to these actions.

	●	refrain from any action that is competitive with the company’s business;
	●	refrain from exploiting any business opportunity of the company to receive a personal gain for himself or others; and

	●	a financial liability imposed on him or her in favor of another person by any judgment concerning an act performed in his or her capacity as an office holder, including a settlement or arbitrator’s award approved by a court;
	●	reasonable litigation expenses, including attorneys’ fees, expended by the office holder (a) as a result of an investigation or proceeding instituted against him or her by an authority authorized to conduct such investigation or proceeding, provided that (1) no indictment (as defined in the Companies Law) was filed against such office holder as a result of such investigation or proceeding; and (2) no financial liability as a substitute for the criminal proceeding (as defined in the Companies Law) was imposed upon him or her as a result of such investigation or proceeding, or, if such financial liability was imposed, it was imposed with respect to an offense that does not require proof of criminal intent; or (b) in connection with a monetary sanction;
	●	reasonable litigation expenses, including attorneys’ fees, expended by the office holder or imposed on him or her by a court: (1) in proceedings that the company institutes, or that another person institutes on the company’s behalf, against him or her; (2) in a criminal proceeding of which he or she was acquitted; or (3) as a result of a conviction for a crime that does not require proof of criminal intent; and
