Firefly Neuroscience, Inc.

 

Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Firefly Neuroscience, Inc. as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, changes in shareholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2023, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Firefly Neuroscience, Inc. as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2023, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the entity will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 of the notes to consolidated financial statements, the entity has suffered recurring losses from operations and negative cash flow from operating activities that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the entity’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to Firefly Neuroscience, Inc. in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Firefly Neuroscience, Inc. is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

 

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

We have served as Firefly Neuroscience, Inc.'s auditor since 2023.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2023 AND 2022

(IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE AND PER SHARE DATA)

 

 

NOTE 1: BUSINESS DESCRIPTION

 

Nature of organization and business

 

Firefly Neuroscience, Inc. (the “Company”) and its wholly owned subsidiaries Firefly Neuroscience Ltd. (formerly known as Elminda Ltd.), Elminda 2022 Inc., a Delaware corporation (formerly known as Elminda Inc.). and Elminda Canada Inc., a Canadian corporation, are engaged in the development, marketing and distribution of medical devices and technology allowing high resolution visualization and evaluation of the complex neuro-physiological interconnections of the human brain.

 

Firefly Neuroscience Ltd. was initially incorporated and commenced its operations as a development company in 2006 under the laws of the State of Israel, and in May 2014, initiated its USA marketing and distribution activity through Elminda 2022 Inc.

 

In July 2014, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) cleared Firefly Neuroscience Ltd. Brain Network Analytics’ (BNA™) product for marketing in the USA. On September 11, 2014, the Company received the Conformity European (“CE”) approval for BNA™ allowing use in Europe.

 

Reorganization

 

Name change and corporate restructure

 

Elminda Inc. was incorporated in the State of Delaware on April 21, 2022.

 

On July 5, 2022, Elminda Ltd. became a subsidiary of Elminda Inc. via a share exchange agreement wherein Elminda Inc. issued shares to shareholders of Elminda Ltd. against shares of Elminda Ltd. (the “Flip Transaction”).

 

On September 15, 2022 and October 24, 2022 management changed the name from Elminda Inc. and Elminda Ltd. to Firefly Neuroscience Inc. and Firefly Neuroscience Ltd., respectively.

 

Shareholder Restructuring

 

On January 27, 2022, holders of shares of outstanding Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock, and Series E Preferred Stock of Firefly Neuroscience Ltd. voted to convert their shares of preferred stock into shares of common stock of Firefly Neuroscience Ltd. Upon completion of the transaction, Firefly Neuroscience Ltd. had 1,085,605 shares of common stock and 3,198,421 shares of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding.

 

On May 24, 2022, holders of the majority of shares of common stock of Firefly Neuroscience Ltd. voted to exchange their shares on a 1-1 basis for shares in the Company.

 

In connection with the Flip Transaction, on July 5, 2022, (a) Firefly Neuroscience, Inc. became an issuer of (i) 1,085,605 common shares, (ii) 3,198,421 Series A preferred shares and (c) 3,715 shares of common share dividends. The original shareholders of Firefly Neuroscience Ltd. remained in control of the new group and the Company.

 

On November 23, 2022, the Company completed a reverse share split on a ratio of 1:750. These consolidated financial statements and all financial notes referencing shares of common stock, stock dividends, stock options and their associated prices have been retroactively adjusted as to show the effect of the 1:750 reverse stock split.

 

 

Merger agreement

 

On November 16, 2023, WaveDancer, Inc. (“WaveDancer”) (NASDAQ: WAVD) announced that it has entered into a definitive merger agreement (the “Merger Agreement”) with the Company, to combine the companies in an all-stock transaction. The combined company will focus on continuing to develop and commercialize the Company’s Artificial Intelligence driven BNA™ platform, which was previously cleared by the FDA. Upon closing, the combined company is expected to operate under the name Firefly Neuroscience, Inc., and trade on the Nasdaq Capital Market.

 

Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, each share of the Company’s shares of common stock issued and outstanding will be converted into common shares of WaveDancer based on a fixed exchange ratio, with any resulting fractional shares to be rounded to the nearest whole share. At the effective time of the merger, securityholders of Firefly will own approximately 92% of the combined company and securityholders of WaveDancer will own approximately 8% of the combined company, on a fully diluted basis. WaveDancer’s ownership may increase if it raises capital in excess of the minimum detailed in the Merger Agreement. The closing of the transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including the effectiveness of the registration statement on Form S-4 to be filed by WaveDancer, and the receipt of required shareholder approvals from the Company’s and WaveDancer shareholders. Following the merger, WaveDancer, Inc. will be renamed “Firefly Neuroscience, Inc.” and the corporate headquarters will be located in Toronto, Ontario. The transaction is expected to be completed in 2024.

 

Israeli/Palestinian conflict

 

On October 7, 2023, an armed Israeli/Palestinian conflict broke out. As the Israeli/Palestinian conflict in Gaza develops, it could have an adverse impact on regional and global markets. While our operations are not directly impacted by these events, the duration of hostilities, imposition of sanctions and related events (including cyberattacks), among others, cannot be predicted. As a result, those events present uncertainty and risk. To date, conflict in Gaza has not had a material impact on the Company’s business.

 

NOTE 2: GOING CONCERN

 

As of December 31, 2023, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $76,624 (December 31, 2022: $74,021) and negative cash flow from operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2023 of $2,172 (for the year ended December 31, 2022: $2,892). Further, the Company has recurring losses with minimal revenue from operations. While the Company is attempting to raise funds for commercialization, its monthly cash requirements during the year ended December 31, 2023 have been met through issuance of shares to new and existing shareholders. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of twelve months from the date these consolidated financial statements were issued. Therefore, the Company may be unable to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in normal course of business. To strengthen the Company’s liquidity in the foreseeable future, the Company has taken the following measures:

 

(i)

Negotiating further funding with existing and new investors to raise additional capital;

(ii)

Taking various cost control measures to reduce the operational cash burn; and

(iii)

Commercializing product to generate recurring sales.

 

Management of the Company has a reasonable expectation that the Company can continue raising additional equity capital to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future.

 

 

 

 

NOTE 3: BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Generally Acceptance Accounting Principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).

 

a.	Principles of consolidation

 

These consolidated financial statements include the financial information of the Company and its subsidiaries. The Company consolidates legal entities in which it holds a controlling financial interest. The Company has a two-tier consolidation model: one focused on voting rights (the voting interest model) and the second focused on a qualitative analysis of power over significant activities and exposure to potentially significant losses or benefits (the variable interest model). All entities are first evaluated to determine whether they are variable interest entities (“VIE”). If an entity is determined not to be a VIE, it is assessed on the basis of voting and other decision-making rights under the voting interest model. The accounts of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period using consistent accounting policies. All intercompany balances and transactions were eliminated on consolidation.

 

b.	Revision of Prior Period Financial Statements

 

In connection with the preparation of the consolidated financial statements for year ended December 31, 2023, we identified an immaterial error related to certain general and administration and research and development expenses in the consolidated financial statements for year ended December 31, 2022. In accordance with SAB No. 99, “Materiality,” and SAB No. 108, “Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements,” we evaluated the error and determined that the related impact was not material to our consolidated financial statements for any prior annual or interim period, but that correcting the cumulative impact of the error would be significant to our results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2023. Accordingly, we have revised previously reported financial information for such immaterial error. A summary of revisions to certain previously reported financial information presented herein for comparative purposes is included in Note 20.

 

c.	Use of estimates in the preparation of consolidated financial statements

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

i) Share based payments

In calculating share-based compensation expense, key estimates are used such as, the stock price of the Company, the rate of forfeiture of options granted, the expected life of the option, the volatility of the Company’s stock price, and the risk-free interest rate.

 

ii) Warrants

In calculating the fair value of warrants issued, the Company includes key estimates such as the stock price of the Company, the expected life of the warrant, the volatility of the Company’s stock price, and the risk-free interest rate.

 

d.	Functional currency and foreign currency translations

 

The currency of the primary economic environment in which the operations of the Company is conducted is the U.S. dollar ("$" or "Dollar"). All of the Company's revenues and finance are denominated in U.S dollars. The reporting and the functional currency of the Company is the U.S Dollar.

 

 

The dollar figures are determined as follows: transactions and balances originally denominated in dollars are presented at their original amounts. Balances in non-dollar currencies are translated into dollars using historical and current exchange rates for non-monetary and monetary balances, respectively.

 

e.	Fair value measurement

 

The Company uses a three-tier fair value hierarchy to classify and disclose all assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, as well as assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis, in periods subsequent to their initial measurement. The hierarchy requires the Company to use observable inputs when available, and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs, when determining fair value. The three tiers are defined as follows:

 

•	Level 1—Observable inputs that reflect quoted market prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets;

•	Level 2—Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are observable either directly or indirectly in the marketplace for identical or similar assets and liabilities; and

•	Level 3—Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market data, which require the Company to develop its own assumptions.

 

Fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or a liability. The carrying amounts of cash and equivalents, accounts receivable, other receivables, long-term deposits, trade payables, balances to and from related party and convertible notes approximate their fair value due to the short-term maturity of such instruments. It is management’s opinion that the Company is not exposed to any significant market or credit risks arising from these financial instruments.

 

f.	Fair value of financial instruments

 

Cash, other receivables, trade payables, related party payable and accrued liabilities are carried at amortized cost, which management believes approximates their respective fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

 

g.	Related party

 

Parties are related if one party has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operating decisions. Parties are also considered to be related if they are subject to common control or common significant influence, and related parties may be individuals or corporate entities. A transaction is a related party transaction when there is a transfer of resources or obligations between related parties. The Company has disclosed its transactions with related parties.

 

h.

Cash

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments, which include short-term bank deposits that are not restricted as to withdrawal or use and the period to maturity of which did not exceed three months at time of investment, to be cash.

 

i.	Other receivables

 

Other receivables are recorded at net realizable value, which includes an allowance for expected credit losses. The allowance for expected credit losses (“allowance for doubtful receivables”) is based on the Company’s assessment of collectability of customer accounts. The Company regularly reviews the allowance by considering factors such as historical experience, credit quality, the age of the accounts receivable balances, and current economic conditions that may affect a customer’s ability to pay.

 

 

j.	Contingent liabilities

 

Certain conditions may exist as of the date the consolidated financial statements are issued, that may result in a loss to the Company but that will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. Such losses are disclosed as contingent liabilities if it is not both probable and reasonably estimable. The Company's management assesses such contingent liabilities and estimated legal fees, if any. Such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against the Company or unasserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company's management evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or unasserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought.

 

k.

Warrants

 

The Company accounts for the warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the specific terms of the warrants and the applicable authoritative guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity” (“ASC 480”) ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging” (“ASC 815”), and ASC 718, “Compensation—Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”). The assessment considers whether they are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480 or meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company’s own shares of common stock and whether the holders of the warrants could potentially require “net cash settlement” in a circumstance outside of the Company’s control, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of issuance of the warrants and as of each subsequent reporting date while the warrants are outstanding. For issued or modified warrants and that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, such warrants are required to be recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital at the time of issuance. For issued or modified warrants that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, such warrants are required to be recorded at their initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair value of liability-classified warrants are recognized as a non-cash gain or loss on the statements of operations.

 

l.	Stock options

 

The Company grants stock options to certain employees and directors through an established stock option plan. All stock option grants or changes to existing grants, are subject to board of directors’ approval. For employees and directors, the fair value of the award is measured on the grant date. For non-employees, as per ASC 718, remeasurement is not required. The fair value amount is then recognized over the period during which services are required to be provided in exchange for the award, usually the vesting period. Determining the appropriate fair value model and the related assumptions requires judgment. During the year ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, the fair value of each option grant was estimated using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model.

 

m.	Revenue recognition

 

Revenue is recognized in accordance with ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASC 606”). The Company performs the following five steps:

(i)

identify the contract(s) with a customer,

(ii)

identify the performance obligations in the contract,

(iii)

determine the transaction price,

(iv)

allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and

(v)

recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.

 

The Company applies this five-step model to arrangements that meet the definition of a contract under ASC 606, including when it is probable that the entity will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the goods or services it transfers to the customer. At contract inception, once the contract is determined to be within the scope of ASC 606, the Company evaluates the goods or services promised within each contract, related performance obligation and assesses whether each promised good or service is distinct. The Company recognizes as revenue, the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective performance obligation when (or as) the performance obligation is satisfied at a point in time.

 

 

The Company’s revenues are measured based on the consideration specified in the contract with each customer, net of any sales incentives and taxes collected from customers that are remitted to government authorities. For multiple-element arrangements, revenue is allocated to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price. Standalone selling prices are based on observable prices at which the Company separately sells the products or services. The Company regularly reviews standalone selling prices and updates these estimates, as necessary.

 

n.	Deferred revenue

 

Deferred revenue consists of payments received from customers in advance of satisfying a performance obligation identified in accordance with ASC 606. The change in the deferred revenue balance for the years ended December 31, 2023, and 2022 was driven by payments from customers in advance of satisfying the performance obligations, offset by revenue recognized as performance obligations were completed.

 

o.	Research and development expenses

 

Research and development expenses are expensed as incurred and consist primarily of personnel, facilities, equipment and supplies related to the Company’s research and development activities.

 

p.	Software development costs

 

The Company capitalizes the cost of developing internal-use software, consisting primarily of personnel, facilities, equipment and supplies and third parties who devote time to their respective projects. Internal-use software costs are capitalized during the application development stage – when the research stage is complete, and management has committed to a project to develop software that will be used for its intended purpose. Any costs incurred during subsequent efforts to significantly upgrade and enhance the functionality of the software are also capitalized. Capitalized software costs are included in intangible assets, net on the consolidated balance sheets. Amortization of internal-use software costs are recorded on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful life and begin once the project is substantially complete and the software is ready for its intended purpose.

 

q.	Income taxes

 

Income taxes are accounted for using the asset/liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that are expected to be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. In estimating future tax consequences, all expected future events are considered other than enactment of changes in the tax law or rates.

 

The Company adopted ASC 740 “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”), which addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the consolidated financial statements. Under ASC 740, the Company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position.

 

r.

Leases

 

At the inception of the contract, the Company assesses whether the contract contains a lease in accordance with ASU 2016-02, “Leases” (“ASC 842”). The Company determines whether an arrangement is a lease by establishing if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Leases are classified either as operating lease or finance lease. The Company elects not to apply the recognition requirements of ASC 842 to short-term leases. Short term leases are contracts that have a lease term of 12 months or less and does not include an option to purchase the underlying asset that the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise. The Company does not have any lease with a lease term longer than 12 months.

 

 

s.	Employee benefits

 

Short-term employee benefits are benefits for which full settlement is expected within twelve months of the end of the financial year in which the members of staff rendered the corresponding services. These benefits include, paid annual leave, paid sick leave, health and governmental social security contributions which are expensed as the services are rendered. A liability for a cash bonus or plan profit-sharing is recognized when the Company has a legal or implied obligation to make such payments because of past services rendered by a member of staff, and it is possible to make a reasonable estimate of the amount.

 

For post-employment the Company has a defined contribution plan pursuant to section 14 to the Israeli Severance Compensation Act, 1963 under which the Company pays fixed contributions and will have no legal or constructive obligation to pay further contributions if the fund does not hold enough to pay all employee benefits relating to employee service in the current and prior periods. Contributions to the defined contribution plan in respect of severance or retirement pay are recognized as an expense when contributed monthly, concurrently with performance of the employee’s services.

 

t.	Segment reporting

 

Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise engaging in business activities for which discrete financial information is available and regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company operates and manages its business as one operating segment.

 

u.	Geographic areas

 

The Company has operations in Canada, the United States of America and Israel. The revenues and non-current assets of the Company are generated and located in the following locations:

 

Geographic areas	Revenue 2023	Revenue 2022	Non- current assets 2023	Non- current assets 2022

United States of America	478	-	-	-

v.	Recent accounting pronouncements

 

In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-09 “Income Taxes (Topics 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures” to expand the disclosure requirements for income taxes, specifically related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. ASU 2023-09 is effective for annual periods beginning January 1, 2025, with early adoption permitted. The Company has not adopted this standard early and is currently evaluating the potential effect that the updated standard will have on its consolidated financial statements disclosures.

 

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures” which expands annual and interim disclosure requirements for reportable segments, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses.

 

The expanded annual disclosures are effective for the Company's year ending December 31, 2024, and the expanded interim disclosures are effective in 2025 and will be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented.

 

The Company is currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2023-07 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In 2010, the Company’s board of directors approved an employee and service provider’s stock option plan. On July 8, 2023, the board of directors approved new equity incentive plan (the “Plan”). The Plan permits the grant of options, share appreciation rights (“SARs”), restricted share units (“RSUs”), deferred share units (“DSUs”) and performance share units (“PSUs”). In respect of options, the aggregate number of shares of common stock issuable under the Plan shall not exceed twelve percent of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock at any point in time. In respect of SARs, RSUs, DSUs and PSUs: (i) the maximum aggregate number of shares of common stock issuable under this Plan in respect of SARs, RSUs, DSUs and PSUs shall not exceed ten percent of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock as of July 8, 2023; (ii) the total number of SARs, RSUs, DSUs and PSUs issuable to any participant under this Plan shall not exceed one percent of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock at the time of the award.

 

 

The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using a Black Scholes option valuation model that uses the assumptions noted in the following table.

 

		2023				2022
Risk free rate			4.35	%			4.5	%
Dividend yield			0	%			0	%
Expected volatility			86	%			86	%
Expected term (in years)			3				3
Expected life (in years)			5				5

 

A summary of option activity under the Plan as of December 31, 2023, and changes during the year then ended is presented below.

 

		Number of Stock Options				Weighted Average Exercise Price				Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term				Aggregate Intrinsic Value
Outstanding Options, December 31, 2022			495,746			$	4.70				6.90			$	-
Options granted			795,916				0.58
Outstanding Options, December 31, 2023			1,291,662			$	2.16				6.18			$	-

 

The share-based compensation expense related to options for December 31, 2023 was $295 (2022: $60). The fair value of options granted for the year ended December 31, 2023 was nominal (2022: $692). The intrinsic value of the options outstanding is $nil (2022: $nil).

 

A summary of the Company’s non-vested options as of December 31, 2023, and changes during the year ended December 31, 2023, is presented below.

 

		Number of Stock Options				Weighted Average Grant- Date Fair Value
Non-Vested Options, December 31, 2022			325,853			$	2.20
Options granted			795,916				0.00
Options vested			(246,883	)			1.15
Non-Vested Options, December 31, 2023			874,886			$	0.50

 

As of December 31, 2023, there was $434 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested options granted under the Plan.

 

The options and exercise prices have been changed to reflect the reverse stock split of 1:750, which occurred on November 23, 2022.

 

g.	Management options

 

On July 8, 2023, the Company granted stock options to its employees, officers, directors and consultants to purchase an aggregate of 3,148,288 shares of common stock at an exercise price with a term of five years, where the exercise price is equal to a 25% discount to the issue price of the Company’s equity securities in an initial public offering (an “IPO Transaction”), that results in the Company’s shares of common stock being listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market or another recognized securities exchange or traded on the over-the-counter market. Options to purchase up to 362,584 shares of common stock shall vest immediately with the remaining options vesting in 36 equal installments at the end of each calendar month over a period of three years from the date of grant. The vesting of management options is contingent upon the occurrence of an IPO Transaction. Since options are contingent on the occurrence of a liquidity event which is not probable for the purposes of ASC 718, no compensation cost would be recognized related to options until the occurrence of a liquidity event.

 

 

h.	Restricted share units

 

On July 8, 2023, the Company granted RSUs to certain management and directors. The vesting of the RSUs is contingent upon a transaction that results in the Company’s shares of common stock being listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market or another recognized securities exchange or traded on the over-the-counter market. When vested, the RSUs represent the right to be issued the number shares of common stock that is equal to the number of RSUs granted. Since RSUs are contingent on the occurrence of a liquidity event which is not probable for the purposes of ASC 718, no compensation cost related to RSUs is recognized until the occurrence of a liquidity event.

 

NOTE 12: BASIC AND DILUTED NET LOSS PER SHARE

 

Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to holders of common stock by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period computation includes shares of common stock to be contractually issued as of the period end date. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by giving effect to all potential dilutive shares of common stock that were outstanding during the period when the effect is dilutive. Potential dilutive shares of common stock consist of shares issuable upon conversion of preferred shares, exercise of stock options, restricted stock units, and warrants. No adjustments have been made to the weighted average outstanding shares of common stock figures for the years ended December 31, 2023 or 2022, as the assumed conversion of preferred shares, exercise of outstanding options, warrants and restricted stock units would be anti-dilutive.

 

NOTE 13: RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

During the year ended December 31, 2022, $320 of notes payable to directors were converted to 106,612 shares of common stock (Note 7).

No compensation cost is recognized related to options until the occurrence of a liquidity event.

On February 24, 2023, the agreement with R.I. Mind Group Ltd. expired in accordance with its terms, and, as of December 31, 2023, there are no amounts owed by the Company to R.I. Mind Group Ltd. As the Company did not carry any activity for the purposes of the agreement, the Company recognized $459 of other income (Note 8).

 

NOTE 19: INCOME TAX

 

The total provision for income taxes differs from the amount which would be computed by applying the US income tax rate to loss before income taxes. The reasons for these differences are as follows:

 

		December 31
		2023				2022
Statutory income tax rate			27.60	%			28.51	%
Statutory income tax recovery		$	(718	)		$	(1,113	)
Increase (decrease) in income taxes
Non-deductible option expenses			135				19
Taxable capital gain on sale of investment and equipment			-				-
Difference in foreign tax rates			30				200
US state tax			1				(1	)
Change in valuation allowance			553				895
Income tax expense (recovery)		$	1			$	-

 

The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities and certain carry-forward balances.

 

 

The primary components of the deferred tax assets and liabilities are as follows, for the periods indicated below:

 

		December
		2023				2022
		$				$
Deferred tax assets
Non-capital loss carry-forwards from Canada			-				1
Non-capital loss carry-forwards from US			1,418				1,576
Non-capital loss carry-forwards from Israel			15,449				17,479
Stock option			95				17
R&D expenditures			236				424
Reserves and others			127				-
			17,325				19,497
Valuation Allowances for deferred tax assets			(17,325	)			(19,497	)
Net deferred tax assets			-				-

 

The net deferred tax assets have been offset by a valuation allowance because it is not more likely than not the Company will realize the benefit of these deferred tax assets. The Company did not recognize any tax benefits as of December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

 

At December 31, 2023, the Company's Canadian, US, and Israeli non-capital income tax losses, the benefit of which has not been recognized on the consolidated financial statements, expire as follows:

 

		Canada				US				Israel
2034		$	-			$	501			$	-
2035			-				1,767				-
2036			-				2,872				-
2037			-				-				-
2038			-				-				-
2039			-				-				-
2040			-				-				-
2041			-				-				-
2042			2				-				-
Indefinite			-				1,293				67,170
		$	2			$	6,433			$	67,170

 

At December 31, 2023, the Company had a cumulative carry-forward pool of Israeli Research and Development expenditures in the amount of $889 (2022: $1,823) which will be amortized within the next three years.

 

The Company files unconsolidated federal income tax returns domestically and in foreign jurisdictions. The Company has open tax years from 2018 to 2023 with tax jurisdictions including Canada, U.S, and Israel. These open years contain certain matters that could be subject to differing interpretations of applicable tax laws and regulations, as they relate to amount, timing, or inclusion of revenues and expenses.
