PART I

 

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

 

Recent Developments and Corporate Background

 

Prior to the Company’s quarterly report for the period ended September 30, 2019 the Company’s Board of Directors was exploring strategic alternatives to enhance stockholder value, which the Company reported in the quarterly report might include future acquisitions, a merger with another company, a potential sale of certain assets, including the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary Novomic Ltd., a private company organized under the laws of the State of Israel (“Novomic”), or the sale of the Company as a public shell company.

 

Until December 31, 2019, the Company had incurred accumulated losses of approximately $10.6 million, and based on the projected cash flows and Company’s cash balance, the Company’s management was of the opinion that without further fundraising it would not have sufficient resources to enable it to continue advancing its activities including the development, manufacturing, and marketing of its products. The Company’s management had plans including the continued commercialization of the Company’s products, to continue taking cost reduction steps and securing sufficient financing, however, it was also exploring strategic alternatives as detailed above.

 

During 2019 Company made various efforts to increase sales of its product Novokid® in Europe and Israel, and to receive U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) approval to sell in the USA. However, the Company’s sales efforts, including in Israel through Super Pharm, and in the Netherlands, and through Amazon UK, did not yield the forecasted outcomes. The Company’s USA OEM agreement failed to result in FDA approval or USA sales. The Company failed to enter into additional engagements with distributors in Europe and Latin America. The Company also failed to launch its product Shine. In January 2019 the Company entered into a joint venture agreement with a Chinese partner for the formation of a Chinese joint venture intended to focus on the development of a comprehensive and broad range of health, wellness, beauty and home products for customers by utilizing its patented technology of vaporization of natural and plant-based compounds. While a Chinese entity was established in accordance with the joint venture agreement, only part of the amount envisaged to be invested in the Company by ICB Biotechnology Investments Ltd in connection with the joint venture was invested and on September 19, 2019 its nominated director Ningzhou Zhang resigned from the board of directors of the Company.

 

On November 21, 2019, in light of the above, and absence of any improvement in the situation, and after the board of directors of the Company reached the conclusion that the Company would not be able to successfully commercialize any products or secure sufficient financing, the Company entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with Citrine S A L Investment & Holdings Ltd (“the buyer”) which provided for the issuance and sale of a number of shares of common stock of the Company which after the transaction would result in the buyer holding 95% of the fully diluted capital stock of the Company, and the sale by the Company of 90% of its shares in Novomic.

 

On January 6, 2020, definitive agreements were executed for the sale of 90% of the shares in Novomic to Traistman Radziejewski Fundacja Ltd, which is expected to be completed during May 2020 (the “Novomic Divestment”), and for the issuance and sale of a number of shares equal after the issuance to 95% of the fully diluted capital stock of the Company to Citrine S A L Investment & Holdings Ltd and a group of related persons and entities (the “TechCare Transaction”). Citrine S A L Investment & Holdings Ltd carried out extensive due diligence appropriate for the acquisition of a public company divesting its activities, and obtained from the Company’s sellers detailed representations and warranties. Traistman Radziejewski Fundacja Ltd is controlled by Oren Traistman, who was a director of the Company until February 27, 2020.

 

On February 23, 2020, the Company entered into an agreement amending and restating the January 6, 2020 agreement concerning the TechCare Transaction, which provided for the issuance and sale of the shares in stages. Pursuant to this agreement, on February 27, 2020 a number of shares was issued to Citrine S A L Investment & Holdings Ltd which was insufficient to cause a change in control of the Company - which would at that time have invalidated the Company’s Directors and Officers insurance – but which did cause to come into effect the resignation of the board of directors of the Company and the appointment of a new board nominated by Citrine S A L Investment & Holdings Ltd. The board of the directors of the Company has accordingly since February 27, 2020 been composed of three nominees of Citrine S A L Investment & Holdings Ltd, namely Ora Meir Soffer, Ilan Ben-Ishay and Ilanit Halperin. Zviel Gedalihou was appointed as Chief Financial Officer of the Company on March 17, 2020, and Ora Meir Soffer was appointed Chief Executive Officer of the Company on May 7, 2020. The Company has no payroll liabilities at present. On March 5, 2020, additional shares were issued, causing Citrine S A L Investment & Holdings Ltd and its group of related persons and entities to become owners of 90.6% of the fully diluted capital stock of the Company, and resulting in a change of control of the Company. The Company is working to complete the issuance and sale of a number of shares equal after the issuance to up to 95% of the fully diluted capital stock of the Company by amending its Certificate of Incorporation to increase its authorized share capital and then issuing additional shares.

 

The Company continues to sell the Novokid® product both through online and physical sales channels, including through its own website, Amazon.uk, and Super Pharm’s physical outlets, with its principal markets being the United Kingdom, Europe and and Israel.

At the time of the publication of this annual report, Novomic was a technology company engaged in the design, development and commercialization of a unique delivery platform utilizing vaporization of various natural compounds for multiple health, beauty and wellness applications. Its delivery platform was proprietary and patented. Its product offering included Novokid® - an innovative home use device which vaporizes a natural, plant-based, pesticides, and silicone-free compound that effectively treats head lice and eggs. Following its soft launch of Novokid® in the Netherlands, the Company expanded its distribution network and launched Novokid in Israel during late May 2018 through Super Pharm, Israel’s largest and leading drugstore chain. The launch was accompanied by a radio and digital brand awareness and marketing campaign and supported by Meditrend, its Israeli distributor, specializing in health and wellness products while representing leading brands. The Company showcased Novokid® and met potential additional distributors and partners at CPhI Worldwide, a renowned and leading pharma tradeshow held in Madrid during October 2018.

 

On February 8, 2016, the Company signed a Merger Agreement (the “Merger Agreement”) with Novomic and a Shareholders’ Agreement with the Novomic’s shareholders (the “Shareholders’ Agreement”). The Merger Agreement was by and between the Company, on the one hand, and Novomic together with YMY Industry Ltd., or YMY, and Microdel Ltd. or Microdel, the latter two of which are hereinafter referred to as the “Novomic Founders,” on the other hand. On August 9, 2016, the Company consummated the merger under the Merger Agreement (the “Merger”) and Novomic became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Upon closing of the Merger, the former Novomic shareholders owned approximately 73.52% of the Company’s capital stock and TechCare stockholders retained approximately 26.48% of the combined company, on a fully diluted basis. Accordingly, while TechCare was the legal acquirer, Novomic was treated as the acquiring company in the Merger for accounting purposes, and the Merger was accounted for as a reverse merger. In connection with the closing of the Merger Agreement, the Company (i) changed its name from BreedIT Corp. to TechCare Corp.; (ii) subjected the 149,219,173 outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock to a reverse split on a one-for-thirty (1:30) basis, resulting in 4,973,972 outstanding shares of common stock; and (iii) authorized ten million (10,000,000) shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001, which may be issued in one or more classes or series, having such designations, preferences, privileges and rights as our board of directors may determine.

 

Novomic was incorporated as a private limited liability Company in Israel in 2009. Since inception, Novomic has been a technology company engaged in the design, development and commercialization of a platform that vaporizes liquids from a contained capsule into a treatment area, utilizing its proprietary intellectual property rights.

 

Novomic’s Treatment Solutions

 

Novokid® – Natural, Plant-based and Effective Lice Treatment

 

Parents and children exposed to head lice are now forced to use standard over-the-counter, or OTC, treatments that are toxic, often ineffective, time consuming and expensive. According to the Journal of Medical Entomology, 98% of lice have developed resistance to existing treatments in the US and they are now referred to as “super-lice”. Most current treatments contain pesticides, alcohol or silicone, which are all associated with a wide variety of hazardous side effects. Novokid® was a non-pesticide, natural, plant-based and eco-friendly solution that eliminated lice and super lice with a 10 minute dry treatment. This compares with current treatments that require 20-40 minutes of shampooing and combing. At the time of publication of this report, Novomic’s treatment was fast, dry, clean, and easily administered at home or on the go. Novokid® could also be used as a maintenance treatment if used regularly. The Company’s products were all based on its proprietary and patented vaporization platform, which was developed over a period of seven years.

 

Shine – Natural Haircare rejuvenation

 

Shine used a patented vaporization process and formulation to clean, treat and improve the appearance of the hair and scalp. In addition to removing the residue, the treatments balanced the hair’s pH levels, added body and shine, defined curls, and strengthened and protected hair from further damage. The Company believed that the Shine treatment was user friendly, requiring the user to connect the Shine capsule to a designated tube, place the attached cap on their head and sit for a 10-minute treatment. There was no need to rinse or shampoo following the treatment. The treatment was expected to cleanse the scalp and leave the hair shiny and manageable. According to a report published by Mordor Intelligence, the global hair care was valued at $95.45 billion in 2018 and was expected to reach $116 billion by 2024, registering a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.35%. The Company’s products were all based on its proprietary and patented vaporization platform, which was developed over a period of seven years.

Sales and Marketing

 

While the vaporizer for Novokid® was designed to be a one-time purchase, the head cap and the capsules were designed to be sold separately based on the “razor-blade” business model (the initial sale of the introductory kit accompanied by the recurring sales of the capsules and head cap). However, the Company nevertheless failed to meet its sales forecasts.

 

Production

 

The Company manufactured its products through third party manufacturers in Israel and China. The Novokid® vaporizer was manufactured in China by a local manufacturer, which also handled assembly, integration and quality assurance for the vaporizer and manufactured the cap and the ancillary components of the Novokid® kit. The Novokid® treatment capsules were manufactured and filled in Israel by third party contractors. The Company’s board of directors decided during 2019 to suspend all all production.

 

Research and Development

 

The Company incurred $404 thousand on research and development during the past two years, $115 thousand in 2019 and $289 thousand in 2018. The Company’s board of directors decided during 2019 to suspend all research and development activity.

Government Regulation

 

The Company’s head lice treatment was subject to regulation by and approval from CE (which approval was obtained) and the FDA (which approval was not obtained). The Company failed to obtain FDA approval for its Novokid® product.

 

Employees

 

As of December 31, 2019, Novomic engaged 3 employees on a part-time (50%) basis, one of them being Novomic’s Chief Financial Officer Tali Dinar, and and two service providers, one of them being Idan Traistman in the role of Chief Executive Officer, and one being Shlomi Arbel in the role of legal advisor.

 

Novomic was subject to Israeli labor laws and regulations with respect to its employees located in Israel. These laws and regulations principally concerned matters such as pensions, paid annual vacation, paid sick days, length of the workday and workweek, minimum wages, overtime pay, insurance for work-related accidents, severance pay and other conditions of employment. Novomic’s employees were not represented by a labor union. Novomic considered its relationship with its employees to be good. At the time of the Novomic Divestment, Novomic had not experienced any work stoppages.

Changing consumer behavior and disruptive technologies are enabling the rapid consumerization and personalization of healthcare.

 

There is an evolution from prescription drugs, doctor-administered diagnostics and medical treatments to a new marketplace centered around the well-being of people as individuals not patients, enabling and improving ‘quality of life’ in ways which can be seamlessly integrated into their daily routines.

 

For these reasons we decided to place our focus on personalized health and wellness.

 

Many of these innovations are being driven by a new generation of venture-backed, more consumer-orientated companies, often underserved by the traditional medical and pharma VC marketplace. There are also pronounced market asymmetries between the sources of some of the most important wellness innovations in parts of Europe and Israel and the large consumer-driven marketplaces for these innovations globally.

In December 2019, a strain of novel coronavirus (COVID-19) causing respiratory illness emerged in the city of Wuhan in the Hubei province of China, and in January 2020, the World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 outbreak a public health emergency. The COVID-19 has spread to many countries and is impacting the markets globally. Many countries, states and municipalities have enacted quarantining regulations which severely limit the ability of people to move and travel, and require non-essential businesses and organizations to close their physical offices. The situation created by COVID-19 worldwide has made it difficult and even impossible to meet with different investors, parties and partners. The company managed to adapt to the situation and built an alternative plan in a short time. Since it was difficult and even impossible to travel specifically to New York and Europe, and since the company directors and executives are based in Israel, Citrine Global took the decision to focus on Israel as first step, via its fully-owned subsidiary Citrine Global Israel Ltd.

 

Citrine Global Israel Ltd

 

Citrine Global Israel targets Israeli startups and technology companies, and in particular public companies, in the fields of healthcare, wellness, foodtech and medical cannabis.

 

About Israel - the “Startup Nation” 4:

 

● Israel has earned the nickname “Startup Nation” for a very good reason: with a population of around 8.5 million, it has the largest number of startups per capita in the world, around one startup per 1,400 people. This phenomenon has caught the eyes of companies with global reach and global aspirations.

The hi-tech ecosystem in Israel is currently focusing its attention on research and development in the areas of healthcare and biotech, including solutions for COVID-19 and the medical cannabis plant for medical purposes.

Israel is known for its academic research yielding world renown innovations and Nobel prize winners.

In addition, the government recognizes the role of the high-tech industry as a main economic catalyst and supports innovations via funding and other models.

Israel, as small as it may be, has attracted the interest of the world’s major technology companies, which have set up R&D centres in Israel.

Medical food market drivers include:

● Rise in geriatric population

● Growing incidences of chronic diseases

Increasing awareness regarding clinical nutrition amongst patients and healthcare professionals

 

In the past, meal replacements were mainly consumed by the elderly or the ill, frequently suffering from nutritional deficiencies. This has changed in recent years, with the marketing of meal replacements increasingly targeting healthy adults.

 

In addition, we see the emergence of cannabis-enhanced health edibles and drinks, that is expected to continuously grow by more than 250% by 2021. 6

Cancer

Post trauma

Chronic digestive problems, Crohn’s Disease

Anxiety and sleep disorders

Concentration and memory problems

Tourette Syndrome

 

Medical cannabis in Israel:

● The State of Israel is currently focusing its attention on research and development on the cannabis plant for medical purposes.

Research into the cannabis plant began in Israel in the 1960s, when Prof. Rafael Meshulam first discovered the main components of the cannabis plant, a discovery that was a world breakthrough in the study of the plant at the time.

Research into the cannabis plant in Israel has continued ever since, in academic and research institutions. In recent years, many studies have been conducted in the field of medical cannabis in Israel. Israel is considered a world center in the field of cannabis research and treatment.

The cannabis plant is still not permitted for research in the USA, is still restricted under US federal law, and is only recently increasingly studied in European countries.

● As a result, Israel has an advantage in the field, relative to the rest of the world, and in academic knowledge on the medical potential of the cannabis plant in treating diseases such as cancer, epilepsy, and childhood autism.

The world’s major drug companies have already begun to express an interest in Israeli research, as well as the big challenge involved in registering patents and intellectual property for drugs using the cannabis plant, which is a complex plant with hundreds of active ingredients.

Around 100 cannabis–related startups are currently operating in Israel.

 

Medical Cannabis Global Market Size:

In the world, there are over 40 countries that allow legal use of medical cannabis and the medical cannabis industry is also expanding to the wellness and medical foods sectors with cannabis incorporated into a variety of edibles, pills, spray products, transdermal patches, supplements, salves, ointments and lotions.

Legal medical cannabis products sales grew 45.7% to $14.9 billion in 2019. This worldwide growth estimate reflects the highest annual growth rate to date. As a result of expected growth ArcView Group has updated their 2024 forecast to $42.7 billion in worldwide legal cannabis sales. 7

In addition, we see the emergence of the cannabis-enhanced health edibles and drinks market, that is expected to continuously grow by more than 250% by 2021. 8

 

Asset and real estate services for the health and medical cannabis industry:

● The healthcare and medical cannabis industry creates attractive opportunities to invest in the industrial real estate sector with a focus on regulated medical-use cannabis facilities.

● Healthcare and medical cannabis companies specifically need infrastructure and assets that are licensed and guarded according to various regulations, involve long-term rentals, and more.

Citrine has built a model adapted to these companies’ needs, covering innovation centers, laboratories, pharmacies, and clinics.

 

The Company at this time intends to carry out its cannabis-related activity through its Israeli subsidiary only, and not the US parent company, and to be involved, and engage with client companies that are involved, in cannabis-related activities only in countries where the activity has been authorised under all appliable laws. The Company does not at this time intend to be involved, either directly or indirectly, in cannabis-related activity in the United States, in light of the federal-level restrictions in place at this time.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

 

Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19)

 

In December 2019, a strain of novel coronavirus (COVID-19) causing respiratory illness emerged in the city of Wuhan in the Hubei province of China, and in January 2020, the World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 outbreak a public health emergency. COVID-19 has spread to many countries and is impacting the markets globally. Many countries, states and municipalities have enacted quarantining regulations which severely limit the ability of people to move and travel, and require non-essential businesses and organizations to close their physical offices. We are actively monitoring the situation and we have and will continue to monitor and take actions to abide with all regulatory requirements. We will continue to closely track developments and may take further actions based on regulatory mandates, or that we determine are in the best interests of our team, partners and shareholders. COVID-19 is contributing to a general slowdown in the global economy and may affect our business, results of operations, financial condition and our future strategic plans. Neither the duration nor the spread of the COVID-19 virus can be predicted. At this time, the extent to which the COVID-19 may impact our financial condition or results of operations is uncertain.

 

Future deterioration or prolonged difficulty in economic conditions could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial position and liquidity.

Future deterioration or prolonged difficulty in economic conditions, as a result of COVID-19 or otherwise, could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial position and liquidity. For example, it could adversely affect our ability to access the liquidity that is necessary to fund operations on terms that are acceptable to us or at all, and could reduce our ability to finance future projects. Financial or other difficulties at our affiliates and partners could negatively affect availability of credit to us in the future.

 

The Company’s bylaws provide for indemnification of its directors and officers and the purchase of directors and officers insurance at the Company’s expense. This will limit the potential liability of the Company’s directors and officers at a major cost to the Company and hurt the interests of its stockholders.

 

The Company’s bylaws include provisions that eliminate the personal liability of the directors and officers of the Company for monetary damages to the fullest extent possible under the laws of the State of Delaware or other applicable law. These provisions eliminate the liability of directors and officers to the Company and its stockholders for monetary damages arising out of any violation of a director or officer of his fiduciary duty of due care. Under Delaware law, however, such provisions do not eliminate the personal liability of a director or officer for (i) breach of the director’s or officer’s duty of loyalty, (ii) acts or omissions not in good faith or involving intentional misconduct or knowing violation of law, (iii) payment of dividends or repurchases of stock other than from lawfully available funds, or (iv) any transaction from which the director or officer derived an improper benefit. These provisions do not affect a director’s and officer’s liabilities under the federal securities laws or the recovery of damages by third parties.

 

 17 
 

 

Failure in the Company’s information technology systems, including by cybersecurity attacks or other data security incidents, could significantly disrupt its operations.

 

The Company’s operations depend, in part, on the continued performance of its information technology systems. Its information technology systems are potentially vulnerable to physical or electronic break-ins, computer viruses and similar disruptions. Failure of its information technology systems could adversely affect its business, profitability and financial condition. Although the Company has information technology security systems, a successful cybersecurity attack or other data security incident could result in the misappropriation and/or loss of confidential or personal information, create system interruptions, or deploy malicious software that attacks the Company’s systems. It is possible that a cybersecurity attack might not be noticed for some period of time. The occurrence of a cybersecurity attack or incident could result in business interruptions from the disruption of the Company’s information technology systems, or negative publicity resulting in reputational damage with its shareholders and other stakeholders and/or increased costs to prevent, respond to or mitigate cybersecurity events. In addition, the unauthorized dissemination of sensitive personal information or proprietary or confidential information could expose the Company or other third-parties to regulatory fines or penalties, litigation and potential liability, or otherwise harm its business.

 

A certain group of the Company’s stockholders may exert significant influence over its affairs, including the outcome of matters requiring stockholder approval.

 

As of the date of this Annual Report, a certain group of stockholders, including Ora Meir Soffer (directly and through Beezz Home Technologies Ltd and Citrine S A L Investment & Holdings Ltd) and Yaron Pitaru (directly and through WealthStone Private Equity Ltd and Citrine S A L Investment & Holdings Ltd) and others, collectively own a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company. As a result, such individuals will have the ability, acting together, to control the election of the Company’s directors and the outcome of corporate actions requiring stockholder approval, such as: (i) a merger or a sale of the Company, (ii) a sale of all or substantially all of its assets, and (iii) amendments to its certificate of incorporation and bylaws. This concentration of voting power and control could have a significant effect in delaying, deferring or preventing an action that might otherwise be beneficial to the Company’s other stockholders and be disadvantageous to the Company’s stockholders with interests different from those individuals. Certain of these individuals also have significant control over the Company’s business, policies and affairs as officers or directors of the Company. Therefore, you should not invest in reliance on your ability to have any control over the Company.

 

Shares eligible for future sale may adversely affect the market.

 

From time to time, certain of the Company’s stockholders may be eligible to sell all or some of their shares of common stock by means of ordinary brokerage transactions in the open market pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, subject to certain limitations. In general, pursuant to Rule 144, non-affiliate stockholders may sell freely after six months subject only to the current public information requirement. Affiliates may sell after six months subject to the Rule 144 volume, manner of sale (for equity securities), and current public information and notice requirements. Any substantial sales of the Company’s common stock pursuant to Rule 144 may have a material adverse effect on the market price of its common stock.

 

Delaware law contains provisions that could discourage, delay or prevent a change in control of the Company, prevent attempts to replace or remove current management and reduce the market price of its common stock.

 

Provisions in the Company’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws may discourage, delay or prevent a merger or acquisition involving the Company that its stockholders may consider favorable. For example, the Company’s certificate of incorporation authorizes its board of directors to issue up to fifty million shares of “blank check” preferred stock. As a result, without further stockholder approval, the board of directors has the authority to attach special rights, including voting and dividend rights, to this preferred stock. With these rights, preferred stockholders could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire the Company. The Company is also subject to the anti-takeover provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”). Under these provisions, if anyone becomes an “interested stockholder,” the Company may not enter into a “business combination” with that person for three years without special approval, which could discourage a third party from making a takeover offer and could delay or prevent a change in control of the Company. An “interested stockholder” is, generally, a stockholder who owns 15% or more of the Company’s outstanding voting stock or an affiliate of the Company who has owned 15% or more of the Company’s outstanding voting stock during the past three years, subject to certain exceptions as described in the DGCL.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of TechCare Corp.

 

Opinion on the Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of TechCare Corp. and its subsidiary (the “Company”), as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, of redeemable convertible preferred stock and stockholders’ equity (capital deficiency) and of cash flows for the years then ended, including 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 financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s 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 the Company 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 of these consolidated financial statements 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. The Company 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 Company’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.

 

Subsequent Event

 

As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has entered into an agreement to sell 90% of its subsidiary’s shares to one of the Company’s existing shareholders.

NOTE 1: NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

A. Nature of operations

 

TechCare Corp. (“Techcare” or the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on May 26, 2010. The Company’s common stock is traded in the United States on the OTCQB market under the ticker symbol “TECR.”

 

On February 8, 2016, the Company signed a Merger Agreement with Novomic Ltd. (“Novomic”), a private company incorporated under the laws of the state of Israel. The closing of the merger took place on August 9, 2016 pursuant to which Novomic became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.

 

Novomic was incorporated as a private company in Israel in 2009. Since inception, Novomic has been a technology company engaged in the design, development and commercialization of a unique delivery platform utilizing vaporization of various natural compounds for multiple health, beauty and wellness applications. Novomic’s delivery platform is proprietary and patented.

 

During 2019, the Company’s Board of Directors explored strategic alternatives to enhance stockholder value, which the Company had previously reported that it might include future acquisitions, a merger with another company, a potential sale of certain assets, including the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary Novomic, or the sale of the Company as a public shell company.

 

Until December 31, 2019, the Company had incurred accumulated losses of approximately $10.6 million, and based on the projected cash flows and Company’s cash balance, the Company’s management was of the opinion that without further fundraising it would not have sufficient resources to enable it to continue advancing its activities including the development, manufacturing, and marketing of its products. The Company’s management had plans including the continued commercialization of the Company’s products, to continue taking cost reduction steps and securing sufficient financing, however, it was also exploring strategic alternatives as detailed above.

 

During 2019, the Company made various efforts to increase sales of its product Novokid® in Europe and Israel, and to receive U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) approval to sell in the USA. However, the Company’s sales efforts, including in Israel through Super Pharm, and in the Netherlands, and through Amazon UK, did not yield the forecasted outcomes. The Company’s USA OEM agreement failed to result in FDA approval or USA sales. The Company failed to enter into additional engagements with distributors in Europe and Latin America. The Company also failed to launch its product Shine. In January 2019, the Company entered into a joint venture agreement with a Chinese partner for the formation of a Chinese joint venture intended to focus on the development of a comprehensive and broad range of health, wellness, beauty and home products for customers by utilizing its patented technology of vaporization of natural and plant-based compounds. While a Chinese entity was established in accordance with the joint venture agreement, only part of the amount envisaged to be invested in the Company by ICB Biotechnology Investments Ltd in connection with the joint venture was invested. On September 19, 2019 its nominated director Ningzhou Zhang resigned from the board of directors of the Company. Refer also to Note 9.

 

On November 21, 2019, in light of the above, and after the board of directors of the Company reached the conclusion that the Company would not be able to successfully commercialize any products or secure sufficient financing, the Company entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with Citrine S A L Investment & Holdings Ltd., which provided for the issuance and sale of a number of shares resulting in Citrine S A L Investment & Holdings Ltd and/or its designee(s) holding 95% of the fully diluted capital stock of the Company, and the sale by the Company of 90% of its shares in Novomic.

 

 29 
 

 

On January 6, 2020, definitive agreements were executed for the sale of 90% of the shares in Novomic to Traistman Radziejewski Fundacja Ltd., which is expected to be completed during May 2020, and for the issuance and sale of a number of shares equal after the issuance to 95% of the fully diluted capital stock of the Company to Citrine S A L Investment & Holdings Ltd. and a group of related persons and entities (the “TechCare Transaction”). Traistman Radziejewski Fundacja Ltd. is controlled by Oren Traistman, which is one of the Company’s shareholders and a director of the Company until February 27, 2020.

 

On February 23, 2020, the Company entered into an agreement amending and restating the January 6, 2020 agreement concerning the TechCare Transaction, which provided for the issuance and sale of the shares in stages. Pursuant to this agreement, on February 27, 2020 and March 5, 2020, additional shares were issued, causing Citrine S A L Investment & Holdings Ltd and its group of related persons and entities to become owners of 90.6% of the fully diluted capital stock of the Company, and resulting in a change of control of the Company. The Company is working to complete the issuance and sale of a number of shares equal after the issuance to up to 95% of the share capital of the Company by amending its Certificate of Incorporation to increase its authorized share capital and then issuing additional shares.

 

Citrine S A L Investment & Holdings Ltd. has furnished the Company with an irrevocable letter of obligation to financially support the Company until June 30, 2021 and allow it to be operational as planned and budgeted throughout this period.

 

During Q1 2020 the Company continued selling the Novokid® product both through online and physical sales channels, including through its own website, Amazon.uk, and Super Pharm’s physical outlets, with its principal markets being the United Kingdom, Europe and Israel.

 

Novomic is not presented as held for sale, although the held-for-sale criteria are met, because the Company concluded that the disposal of 90% of Novomic’s shares is comprised of substantially almost all of the Company’s net assets and operations and since the separate presentation of such a significant portion of the entity’s net assets as a single line item on the balance sheet would not be meaningful to financial statement users. The amounts of the remaining net assets of the Company, which are not part of the held-for-sale subsidiary, are immaterial to these consolidated financial statements.

 

At the time of the issuance of these financial statements, Novomic was a technology company engaged in the design, development and commercialization of a unique delivery platform utilizing vaporization of various natural compounds for multiple health, beauty and wellness applications. Its delivery platform was proprietary and patented. Its product offering included Novokid® - an innovative home use device which vaporizes a natural, plant-based, pesticides, and silicone-free compound that effectively treats head lice and eggs. Following its soft launch of Novokid® in the Netherlands, the Company expanded its distribution network and launched Novokid in Israel during late May 2018 through Super Pharm, Israel’s largest and leading drugstore chain. The launch was accompanied by a radio and digital brand awareness and marketing campaign and supported by Meditrend, its Israeli distributor, specializing in health and wellness products while representing leading brands. The Company showcased Novokid® and met potential additional distributors and partners at CPhI Worldwide, a renowned and leading pharma tradeshow held in Madrid during October 2018.

 

The Company’s new business activity comprises creating value and implementing expansion strategies for growth-stage technology companies. The Company believes the health, wellness and food tech fields are demonstrating high growth potential, and is therefore primarily focused on these sectors. The Company aims to support local and global expansion of such companies via an array of services customized to each company’s needs. The Company offers multi-strategy solutions combining strategic marketing, business development, real estate and asset management services and financing solutions.

 

B. Summary of significant accounting policies

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”).

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Techcare, and its subsidiary, Novomic. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

 30 
 

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates using assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and related disclosures at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and such differences may have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements. As applicable to these consolidated financial statements, the most significant estimate relates to the assumptions underlying stock-based compensation, refund liability, inventories measurement including inventory subject to refund and accrual for slow moving inventory, and the recoverability of long-lived assets.

 

Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a factor which may cause actual results to differ from estimates. COVID-19 is contributing to a general slowdown in the global economy and may affect the Company’s business, results of operations, financial condition and its future strategic plans. At this time, the extent to which the COVID-19 may impact the Company’s financial condition or results of operations is uncertain.

 

Functional Currency and Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions.

 

The currency of the primary economic environment in which the operations of the Company and its subsidiary were conducted is the New Israeli Shekel (“NIS”).

 

The presentation currency of the financial statements is the U.S. dollar. Assets and liabilities are translated at year-end exchange rates, while revenues and expenses are translated at actual exchange rates during the year. Differences resulting from translation are presented in equity, under accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Gains and losses arising from foreign currency transactions of monetary balances denominated in non-functional currencies are reflected in financial income (expense), net in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

 

Financial expenses (income), net in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss comprised mainly of exchange rate differentials.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

All highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less when acquired, that are not restricted as to withdrawal or use, are considered to be cash or cash equivalents.

 

Accounts receivable

 

The balance of accounts receivable includes amounts due from distributors for products sold in the ordinary course of business, net of commissions earned. If payment is due based on payment terms with one year or less, they are classified as current assets. If not, they are presented as non-current assets.

 

Inventories

 

Inventory is measured at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The cost is determined on the “first in-first out” basis. Inventory costs consist of materials, direct labor and overhead. Net realizable value is an estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less applicable selling expenses. Provisions for potentially obsolete or slow-moving inventory are made based on management’s analysis of inventory levels and historical obsolescence.

 

The Company periodically assesses inventory slow moving and reduces the carrying value by an amount equal to the differences between its cost and the net realizable value. The net realizable value is primarily estimated based on future demand forecasts, as well as, historical sales trends, product life cycle status and product development plans. The Company provided inventory write-downs for slow moving in amounts of $176 thousands and $ 0 as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

 

Property, plant and Equipment

 

Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, or in the case of leasehold improvements, the shorter of the lease term (including any renewal periods, if appropriate) or the estimated useful life of the asset. Repairs and maintenance are charged to expense during the financial period in which they are incurred.

 

 31 
 

 

Depreciation lives are as follows:

 

   Years
Computers and software  3
Electronic equipment  7
Office furniture and equipment  14-15
Machinery and equipment  mainly 5

 

Leasehold improvements are amortized by the straight line method over the term of the lease, which is shorter than the estimated useful life of the improvements.

 

Impairment of long-lived assets

 

Long-lived assets held and used by the Company are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. In the event that the sum of the expected future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the long-lived assets is less than the carrying amount of such assets, an impairment charge would be recognized and the assets would be written down to their estimated fair values. During the years ended 2019 and 2018, no impairment was recorded.

 

Fair Value Measurements

 

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset, or paid to transfer a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. A hierarchy has been established for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are inputs that are developed using market data, such as publicly available information about actual events or transactions, and that reflect the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability. Unobservable inputs are inputs for which market data are not available and that are developed using the best information available about the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability. The fair value hierarchy categorizes into three levels. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity can access at the measurement date. Level 2 inputs include inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 inputs) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 inputs). Categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted a new accounting standard related to the recognition of revenue in contracts with customers. Since the Company had no revenues prior to January 1, 2018, the adoption of the standard did not impact the Company’s financial statements.

 

The Company derives revenues from sales of its Novokid product directly or indirectly through its distributors in the United Kingdom, Europe and Israel.

 

The Company determines revenue recognition through the following steps:

 

  Identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer.
  Identification of the performance obligations in the contract.
  Determination of the transaction price.
  Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract.
  Recognition of revenue when, or as, the Company satisfies a performance obligation.

 

 32 
 

 

Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration expected to be received in exchange for transferring goods to the end customer or to the distributor. The Company also considers products that might be returned mostly based on the terms stipulated in the agreements with its distributors. The Company recognizes the amount received or receivable that is expected to be returned as a refund liability, representing its obligation to return the clients’ consideration. The Company also defers the associated costs of the refund liability and recognize it as inventory subject to refund.

 

The Company reports revenue net of any revenue based taxes assessed by governmental authorities that are imposed on and concurrent with specific revenue-producing transactions.

 

Revenue from products are recognized when the customer or the distributor has obtained control of the goods (for the Company’s arrangements, this is at a point in time of revenue recognition) based on the shipping terms. The Company recognizes revenue on sales to distributors upon shipment of the goods, when the distributor has economic substance apart from the Company and the distributor is considered the principal for the transaction with the end-user client.

 

Research and Development

 

Research and development expenses are expensed as incurred, and consist primarily of personnel, facilities, equipment and supplies for research and development activities.

 

Advertising costs

 

Advertising expenses are expended as incurred and were approximately $99 thousand and $369 thousand for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

 

Loss per Share

 

Loss per share is based on the loss that is attributed to the stockholders holding common stock divided by the weighted average number of common stock outstanding and fully vested outstanding options granted to employees and non-employees with an exercise price of $0.0001 for the reported periods.

 

For purposes of the calculation of the diluted loss per share, the Company adjusts the loss that is attributed to the holders of the Company’s common stock, and the weighted average number of common stock assuming conversion of all of the dilutive potential stock using the treasury stock method.

 

The potential stock are taken into account only if their effect is dilutive (increases loss per share).

 

Concentration of credit risks

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents were invested with major banks in Israel and the United States. Generally, these investments could be redeemed upon demand and the Company believed that the financial institutions that held the Company’s cash deposits were financially sound and, accordingly, bore minimal risk. The Company’s accounts receivable were mainly derived from sales to its Israeli distributor.

 

Beneficial Conversion Feature (“BCF”)

 

When the Company issues redeemable convertible preferred stock, if the stock price is lower than the effective redeemable value on the measurement date, the conversion feature is considered “beneficial” to the holder. If there is no contingency, this difference is treated as issued equity and is credited to additional paid in capital. The resulting discount on the redeemable convertible preferred shares is accreted over the remaining period through the earlier date of redemption of those shares, using the effective yield method.

Stock-Based Compensation

 

Stock-Based Compensation to employees, officers and directors

 

The Company measures and recognizes compensation expenses for its equity classified stock-based awards to employees, including stock-based option awards under its plan based on estimated fair values on the grant date. The Company calculates the fair value of stock-based option awards on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The option-pricing model requires a number of assumptions, of which the most significant are the stock price volatility and the expected option term. For the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, the volatility was based on the historical stock volatility of several peer companies, as the Company has limited trading history to use the volatility of its own common stock. The expected option term is calculated using the simplified method, as the Company has no historical share option exercise experience which can provide a reasonable basis to estimate its expected option term. The interest rate for periods within the expected term of the award is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the grant. The Company’s expected dividend rate is zero, since the Company does not currently pay cash dividends on its stock and does not anticipate doing so in the foreseeable future. Each of the above factors require the Company to use judgment and make estimates in determining the percentages and time periods used for the calculation. If the Company were to use different percentages or time periods, the fair value of stock-based option awards could be materially different. The Company recognizes stock-based compensation cost for option awards based on the straight line method over the requisite service period.

 

Stock-Based Compensation to non-employeesOptions and Warrants

 

In June 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2018-07, “Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting” (“ASU 2018-07”). The Company early adopted ASU 2018-07 commencing on January 1, 2018, with no material impact on its consolidated financial statements. Prior to the adoption of ASU 2018-07, stock options issued to consultants and other non-employees, as compensation for services provided to the Company, were accounted for based upon the fair value of the options. The fair value of the options granted were measured on a final basis at the end of the related service period and were recognized over the related service period using the straight line method. After the adoption of ASU 2018-07, the measurement date for non-employee awards is the date of the grant. The compensation expense for non-employees is recognized, without changes in the fair value of the award, over the requisite service period, which is the vesting period of the respective award.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company and its subsidiary were subject to income taxes in the jurisdictions in which they operated. The Company’s provision for income taxes is based on statutory income tax rates in the tax jurisdictions where it operates, permanent differences between financial reporting and tax reporting, and available credits and incentives.

 

Deferred taxes are determined utilizing the “asset and liability” method based on the estimated future tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amount and tax bases of assets and liabilities under the applicable tax laws, and on effective tax rates in effect when the deferred taxes are expected to be settled or realized. Deferred taxes for each jurisdiction are presented as a noncurrent net asset or liability, net of any valuation allowances.

 

The Company may incur an additional tax liability in the event of intercompany dividend distributions by its subsidiary. Such additional tax liability in respect of this foreign subsidiary has not been provided for in these financial statements as it was the Company’s policy to permanently reinvest the subsidiary earnings and to consider distributing dividends only in connection with a specific tax opportunity that may arise.

 

The Company recognizes liabilities for uncertain tax positions only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the tax authority based on the merits of the position. It is inherently difficult and subjective to estimate such amounts, as the Company has to determine the probability of various possible outcomes. The Company reevaluate these uncertain tax positions based on factors including, but not limited to, changes in facts or circumstances, changes in tax law or an effective settlement of audit issues. Such a change in recognition or measurement would result in the recognition of a tax benefit or an additional charge to a tax provision.

 

Taxes that would apply in the event of disposal of investments in a foreign subsidiary have not been taken into account in computing the deferred taxes.

 

 34 
 

 

Valuation Allowances

 

Valuation allowances are provided unless it is more likely than not that all or a portion of the deferred tax asset will be realized. In the determination of the appropriate valuation allowances, the Company considers future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, the most recent projections of future business results, prior earnings history, carryback and carry forward and prudent tax strategies that may enhance the likelihood of realization of a deferred tax asset. Assessments for the realization of deferred tax assets made at a given balance sheet date are subject to change in the future, particularly if earnings of a subsidiary are significantly higher or lower than expected, or if the Company takes operational or tax positions that could impact the future taxable earnings of a subsidiary. Given the Company and subsidiary losses, a full valuation allowance has been provided with respect to its deferred tax assets.

 

Comprehensive Income (loss)

 

The Company complies with ASC 220, “Comprehensive Income,” which establishes rules for the reporting and display of comprehensive income (loss) and its components. The Company reports the financial impact of translating its foreign subsidiary financial statements from functional currency to reporting currency as a component of other comprehensive income (loss).

 

Contingent Liabilities

 

Management applies the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 450-20-25 when assessing losses resulting from contingencies. If the assessment of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated, then the Company would record an accrued expense in the Company’s financial statements. If the assessment indicates that a potential loss contingency is not probable but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, together with an estimate of the range of possible loss, if determinable, is disclosed.

 

Loss contingencies considered to be remote by management are generally not disclosed unless material or they involve guarantees in which case the guarantee would be disclosed.

 

Leases

 

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update 2016-02 “Leases.” The guidance establishes a right-of-use (“ROU”) model that requires a lessee to recognize an ROU asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases. Leases are classified as finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern and classification of expense recognition in the income statement. The guidance became effective on January 1, 2019. A modified retrospective transition approach is required, applying the new standard to all leases existing at the date of initial application. The Company adopted the new accounting standard Accounting Standards Codification 842 “Leases,” and all the related amendments, on January 1, 2019 and used the standard’s effective date as the Company’s date of initial application. Consequently, financial information was not updated and the disclosures required under the new standard are not provided for dates and periods before January 1, 2019.

 

The new lease standard provides practical expedients for an entity’s ongoing accounting. The Company elected the short-term lease recognition exemption for all leases with a term shorter than 12 months. This means, for those leases, the Company does not recognize ROU assets or lease liabilities, including not recognizing ROU assets or lease liabilities for existing short-term leases of those assets in transition. The Company also elected the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components for all of the Company leases.

 

On January 1, 2019, the Company recognized ROU assets of approximately $83 thousand and lease liabilities of approximately $83 thousand for its operating leases of real estate and vehicles. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated statements of income and consolidated statements of cash flows.

NOTE 2: NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued an ASU that supersedes the existing impairment model for most financial assets to a current expected credit loss model. The new guidance requires an entity to recognize an impairment allowance equal to its current estimate of all contractual cash flows the entity does not expect to collect. The ASU also requires that credit losses relating to available-for-sale debt securities will be recorded through an allowance for credit losses. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. This guidance will be effective on January 1, 2020, and the adoption of this guidance will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

As of December 31, 2019, the carrying amount of the notes payable approximates their fair value.

 

NOTE 7: LIABILITY FOR SEVERANCE PAY

 

Israeli labor laws generally require severance payments upon dismissal of an employee or upon termination of employment in certain other circumstances.

 

Severance pay liability with respect to Israeli employees is calculated pursuant to the Israeli Severance Pay Law based on the most recent salary of the employees multiplied by the number of years of employment as of the balance sheet date. The Company records an expense for the increase in its severance liability, net of earnings (losses), from the related severance pay fund. The liability is presented on an undiscounted basis as a long-term liability.

 

The Company’s liability for all of its Israeli employees is covered for by monthly deposits of severance pay funds. The value of the deposited funds is based on the cash surrender value of these policies and includes profits (or losses) accumulated through the balance sheet date. The deposited funds may be withdrawn only upon the fulfillment of the obligations pursuant to the Israeli Severance Pay Law or labor agreements. The amounts funded are presented separately in the balance sheet as a severance pay fund.

 

NOTE 8: STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

 

Share capital

 

Common stock confers upon their holders the right to receive notice to participate and vote in general meetings of the Company, and the right to receive dividends if declared. Also, upon completion of the Merger, the Company’s stockholders approved the authorization of ten million (10,000,000) shares of preferred stock, and in 2019 the authorization of a further forty million (40,000,000) shares of preferred stock, which may be issued in one or more classes or series, having such designations, preferences, privileges and rights as the Board of Directors (the “Board”) may determine. On August 20, 2019, the Company filed the Certificate of Designation with the Delaware Secretary of State to designate the rights and preferences of up to 12,413,794 shares of Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock. The Company issued a total of 10,344,828 shares of Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock in 2019 in exchange for an aggregate amount of $300,000, all of which were converted to common stock on a one-for-one basis in the first quarter of 2020 in connection with the TechCare Transaction.

 

Redeemable convertible preferred stock

 

Each share of Preferred Stock shall have a par value of $0.0001 per share.

 

The Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares confer on the holders thereof all rights accruing to holders of Ordinary Shares in the Company, and in addition bear the following rights:

 

Dividends

 

Holders shall be entitled to receive, and the Corporation shall pay, dividends as and when paid to the holders of Common Stock of the Company on an as-converted basis. Dividends are non-cumulative.

 

Voting Rights

 

Except as otherwise provided herein or as otherwise required by law, the Preferred Stock shall have no voting rights. However, as long as any shares of Preferred Stock are outstanding, the Corporation shall not, without the affirmative vote of the Holders of a majority of the then outstanding shares of the Preferred Stock, (a) alter or change adversely the powers, preferences or rights given to the Preferred Stock or alter or amend the Certificate of Designation, (b) authorize or create any class of stock ranking as to dividends, redemption or distribution of assets upon a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, that is senior to the Preferred Stock, (c) amend its certificate of incorporation or other charter documents in any manner that adversely affects any rights of the Holders, (d) increase the number of authorized shares of Preferred Stock, or (e) enter into any agreement with respect to any of the foregoing.

 

 37 
 

 

Liquidation

 

Upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, and assuming no exercise of the Optional Redemption by the Holder, the Holders shall be entitled to receive distributions out of the assets, whether capital or surplus, of the Corporation on a pari passu basis with the holders of Common Stock. The Corporation shall mail written notice of any such Liquidation, not less than 45 days prior to the payment date stated therein, to each Holder.

 

Conversion

 

Each share of Preferred Stock shall be convertible, at any time and from time to time from and after the Original Issue Date at the option of the Holder thereof, into that number of shares of Common Stock determined by dividing the Stated Value of such share of Preferred Stock by the Conversion Price.

 

Optional Redemption

 

Holder of Redeemable convertible preferred stock may, under certain terms as specified in the certificate of designation of preferences, deliver irrevocable election to have the Company redeem some or all of the then outstanding Preferred Stock, for cash in an amount equal to the applicable portion of the optional redemption amount. Redemption amount shall not exceed the stated value of the preferred shares in total amount of $300,000. As such, the Company presented the Redeemable convertible preferred stock A as a mezzanine line item on the consolidated balance sheet.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company entered into several agreements with certain investors, pursuant to which the Company raised an aggregate amount of $2,372,000, at purchase price per share ranging from $0.261 to $0.387, with warrants granted with an exercise price of $0.60, which expired during a period ranging from June 17, 2019 to November 13, 2019, as detailed below.

  (b) In addition, the Company raised $225,000 from the issuance and sale to certain investors of shares of 1,229,508 Common Stock at purchase price per share of $0.183, concurrently with which the Company granted to those investors warrants to purchase 375,001 shares of Common Stock at a price per share of $0.60 for additional aggregate consideration of $225,000. The warrants had expiry date April 20, 2020 but were waived and cancelled in the first quarter of 2020 in connection with the TechCare Transaction

Stock-Based Compensation to employees, officers and directors

 

Stock based awards are accounted for using the fair value method in accordance with ASC 718, “Shared Based Payment.” The Company’s primary type of stock-based compensation consisted of stock options to directors, employees and officers. The Company uses Black-Scholes option pricing model in valuing options.

 

During 2017, the Company granted to certain employees options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock for an exercise price of $0.0001. The options granted in 2017 were fully vested on the date of the grant and exercisable into the Company’s common stock at a 1:1 ratio for 2.5 years from the date of the grant.

 

The following assumptions were applied in determining the options’ fair value on their grant date:

 

Risk-free interest rate   1.54%
Expected shares price volatility   70%
Expected option term (years)   2.5 
Dividend yield   - 

 

The Company based the risk-free interest rate on the U.S. Treasury yield curve. The expected term in years represents the period of time that the awards granted were expected to be outstanding. The assumption for dividend yield is zero because the Company has not historically paid dividends nor does it expect to do so in the foreseeable future. The volatility was based on the historical stock volatility of several peer companies, as the Company has limited trading history to use the volatility of its own common stock.

Stock-Based Compensation to non-employeesOptions and Warrants

 

The Company early adopted ASU 2018-07 commencing July 1, 2018, with no impact on its consolidated financial statements. Prior to the adoption of ASU 2018-07, stock options issued to consultants and other non-employees, as compensation for services provided to the Company, were accounted for based upon the fair value of the options. The fair value of the options granted were measured on a final basis at the end of the related service period and were recognized over the related service period using the straight line method. After the adoption of ASU 2018-07, the measurement date for non-employee awards is the date of the grant. The compensation expense for non-employees is recognized, without changes in the fair value of the award, over the requisite service period, which is the vesting period of the respective award.

 

In the second quarter of 2018, as part of consulting agreements, the Company granted options to non-employees, as follows:

 

  1) Options to a related party and a member of the Company’s advisory Board, exercisable to purchase 83,393 shares of common stock of the Company, at an exercise price of $0.0001 per share. The options were to vest as follows: 25% of the options will be exercisable on December 1, 2018, and the remaining 75% will be considered exercisable at the end of each subsequent three-month period thereafter, over the course of 12 quarters. These options expired during 2019 due to termination of the engagement with the related party.
     
  2) Options to a related party and member of the Company’s advisory Board, exercisable to purchase 83,393 shares of common stock of the Company, at an exercise price of $0.0001 per share. The options were to vest as follows: 25% of the options will be exercisable on January 1, 2019, and the remaining 75% will be considered exercisable at the end of each subsequent three-month period thereafter, over the course of 12 quarters. These options expired during 2019 due to termination of the engagement with the related party.
     
  3) Options to a related party, a member of the Company’s Board and its advisory Board, exercisable to purchase 436,349 shares of common stock of the Company, at an exercise price of $0.387 per share. The options would have become vested in accordance with the following vesting periods: 33.33% of the options will be exercisable on January 1, 2019, and the remaining 66.67% would have been considered exercisable at the end of each subsequent three-month period thereafter, over the course of 8 quarters. The options were waived and cancelled, by mutual consent, on November 14, 2018, following the resignation of the aforesaid related party from the Board.

 

The following assumptions were applied in determining the options’ fair value on their grant date:

 

Risk-free interest rate   2.65%-2.85 %
Expected shares price volatility   70%
Expected option term (years)   5 
Dividend yield   - 

 

In 2017, the Company granted options to non-employees, as follows:

 

  1) During January 2017 the Company granted to a non-employee warrants to purchase 100,000 of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $1.50 per share, exercisable for a period of 24 months commencing on the date of the agreement, which were fully vested on the date of the grant. The warrants expired on January 21, 2019.
     
  2) During March 2017, the Company granted to non-employees options to purchase 521,065 of the Company’s common stock for an exercise price of $0.0001. The options granted were fully vested on the date of the grant and exercisable into the Company’s common stock at a 1:1 ratio for 5 years from the date of the grant. These options were waived and cancelled in the first quarter of 2020 in connection with the TechCare Transaction.

Dividend yield   - 

 

The Company based the risk-free interest rate on the U.S. Treasury yield curve. The expected term in years represents the period of time that the awards granted are expected to be outstanding. The assumption for dividend yield is zero because the Company has not historically paid dividends nor does it expect to do so in the foreseeable future. The volatility was based on the historical stock volatility of several peer companies, as the Company has limited trading history to use the volatility of its own common stock.

NOTE 9: OEM DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENT

 

On June 23, 2017, the Company entered into an OEM agreement (the “OEM Agreement”) with a medical device and wellness applications company based in the United States (the “OEM Distributor”), according to which the OEM Distributor would manufacture, distribute and sell the Company’s Novokid head lice treatment products in the United States, Canada, Brazil, Argentina, Costa Rica and Colombia, all on an exclusive basis, pursuant to and in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the OEM Agreement, including minimum royalties commitments. The OEM Distributor would be solely responsible for obtaining and maintaining approval from the US Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) and would bear all costs related to such approval. The Company, through its OEM Distributor, communicated with the FDA regarding Novokid’s designation as a medical device. An application to the FDA Office of Combination (OCP division) was prepared.

 

On March 25, 2019, the Company received a notice of termination from the OEM Distributor. Accordingly, the Company did not proceed with the OEM Distributor. No FDA approval was obtained, hence, the Company did not generate any revenues from the OEM agreement.

 

As part of the OEM Agreement, the OEM Distributor paid a royalty advance of $10,000 and an amount of $140,000 was held in an escrow account, until the Company completes certain milestones, as described in the OEM Agreement. The milestones were not achieved and the $140,000 was not paid to the Company.

On January 21, 2019 the Company entered into a subscription agreement with ICB Biotechnology Investments Ltd. (“ICB”), and Novomic entered into a joint venture agreement with ICB’s controlling shareholder China-Israel Biological Technology Co. Ltd. (“CIB”). In accordance with the subscription agreement the Company issued and sold 957,854 shares of Common Stock to ICB for $250,000 at price per share of $0.261, and the Company and ICB committed to implement a second share subscription on the same terms upon the achievement of certain milestones, including a transfer by Novomic of intellectual property rights to a joint venture entity to be formed pursuant to the agreement between Novomic and CIB. The joint venture entity was formed, but Novomic did not transfer to it intellectual property, and the second share subscription was not implemented.

NOTE 13: FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

 

The carrying amount of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash equivalents, accounts receivable and other current assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and note payable approximate their fair value, due to their short term nature and their carrying amounts approximates the amounts expected to be received or paid.

 

A hierarchy has been established for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. The Company accounts for option liability as Level 3 since its inputs are unobservable inputs for the liability.

 

The following table is a reconciliation of the change for the financial liability where fair value measurement is estimated utilizing Level 3 inputs:

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Chair of the board of directors of the Company (Chair) (who is the Company’s principal executive officer) and the Company’s Chief Financial Officer (CFO) (who is the Company’s principal financial officer) to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, the Company’s management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and the Company’s management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

 

Based on the Company’s evaluation of the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2019, the Company’s Chair and CFO concluded that due to the material weaknesses described below, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chair and CFO, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over the Company’s financial reporting. In order to evaluate the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, the Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer conducted an assessment, using the criteria in Internal Control - Integrated Framework, issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Tredway Commission (“COSO”) (2013). The Company’s system of internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. This assessment included review of the documentation of controls, evaluation of the design effectiveness of controls, and a conclusion on this evaluation. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.

 

Based on this evaluation, the Company’s management concluded that its internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2019 as it identified control deficiencies that constituted material weaknesses in the Company’s 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. The material weaknesses identified in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting are described below:

 

(i) Inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives; and

(ii) Ineffective controls over period-end financial reporting and disclosure processes.

 

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.

 

These material weaknesses led to the restatement of the financial statements for the first three quarterly and year-to-date periods in 2017 and the restatement of the financial statements for the three month period ended March 31, 2016, the financial statements for the nine and three month periods ended at September 30, 2016, and the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015. In addition, the material weaknesses could result in the misstatement of account balances or disclosure that would result in a material misstatement to the annual or interim financial statements that would not be prevented or detected. The Company is currently reviewing its controls related to these material weaknesses and expects to implement further changes in the next fiscal year, including identifying specific areas within its accounting and financial reporting processes to mitigate these material weaknesses.

 

The Company’s management will continue to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting on an ongoing basis and is committed to taking further action and implementing additional enhancements or improvements, as necessary.

 

Management believes that despite the material weaknesses set forth above, the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 are fairly stated, in all material respects, in accordance with US GAAP.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

During the three months ended December 31, 2019, there were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

o. On November 21, 2019, the Company entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with Citrine S A L Investment & Holdings Ltd which provided for the sale of the Company, and the sale by the Company of 90% of its shares in Novomic.

 

p. On January 6, 2020, definitive agreements were executed for the sale of 90% of the shares in Novomic to Traistman Radziejewski Fundacja Ltd, and for the issuance and sale of a number of shares equal after the issuance to 95% of the share capital of the Company to Citrine S A L Investment & Holdings Ltd and a group of related persons and entities. Citrine S A L Investment & Holdings Ltd carried out extensive due diligence appropriate for the acquisition of a public company divesting its activities, and obtained from the Company’s sellers detailed representations and warranties. Traistman Radziejewski Fundacja Ltd is controlled by Oren Traistman, who was a director of the Company until February 27, 2020.

 

q. On February 23, 2020, the Company entered into an agreement amending and restating the January 6, 2020 agreement concerning the TechCare Transaction, which provided for the issuance and sale of the shares in stages. Pursuant to this agreement, on February 27, 2020 a number of shares was issued to Citrine S A L Investment & Holdings Ltd which was insufficient to cause a change in control of the Company - which would at that time have invalidated the Company’s Directors and Officers insurance – but which did cause to come into effect the resignation of the board of directors of the Company and the appointment of a new board nominated by Citrine S A L Investment & Holdings Ltd. The board of the directors of the Company has accordingly since February 27, 2020 been composed of three nominees of Citrine S A L Investment & Holdings Ltd, namely Ora Meir Soffer, Ilan Ben-Ishay and Ilanit Halperin. Zviel Gedalihou was appointed as Chief Financial Officer of the Company on March 17, 2020, and Ora Meir Soffer was appointed Chief Executive Officer of the Company on May 7, 2020. The Company has no payroll liabilities at present. On March 5, 2020, additional shares were issued, causing Citrine S A L Investment & Holdings Ltd and its group of related persons and entities to become owners of 90.6% of the fully diluted capital stock of the Company, and resulting in a change of control of the Company. The Company is working to complete the issuance and sale of a number of shares equal after the issuance to up to 95% of the fully diluted capital stock of the Company by amending its Certificate of Incorporation to increase its authorized share capital and then issuing additional shares.

 

r. On April 1, 2020 the Company entered into a Convertible Note Purchase Agreement (the “CL Agreement”) with Citrine S A L Investment & Holdings Ltd, WealthStone Private Equity Ltd, WealthStone Holdings Ltd, Golden Holdings Neto Ltd, Beezz Home Technologies Ltd, Citrine Biotech 5 LP, Citrine High Tech 6 LP, Citrine High Tech 7 LP, Citrine 8 LP, Citrine 9 LP and Citrine Biotech 10 LP (together, the “Buyer”), all of which are affiliated with the Company. Under the CL Agreement, the Buyer agrees to purchase and the Company agrees to issue and sell, for up to an aggregate principal amount of $1,800,000.00, notes convertible into shares of common stock of the Company (the “Notes”), for a period starting on April 1, 2020 and ending upon the earlier of (i) 6 months thereafter and (ii) the consummation of a public offering by the Company. The Notes will bear interest at a rate of six percent (6%) with respect to amounts paid that are used for working capital purposes of the Company, provided that amounts paid that are used for investment activities of the Company may be subject to different interest rates, in accordance with the Guidelines. The conversion price per share of Common Stock shall equal 85% multiplied by the market price (as defined in the Note), representing a discount of 15%. The payment for each Note must be delivered 14 business days after delivery of the respective draw down notice, and each Note will mature 18 months thereafter. The interval between one draw down and the next must be at least thirty (30) days, provided that the Buyer may waive this requirement. Each draw down notice provided to the Buyer must be for an amount between $50,000 and $350,000, set at the Company’s discretion. The Company must use the amounts paid for the Notes in accordance with guidelines required to be provided by the Buyer within 14 business days following April 1, 2020 (the “Guidelines”). The Buyer shall decide upon and provide to the Company the names of the Buyer parties which will provide the funds to the Company in respect of the Note, including the respective amounts to be transferred to the Company by each such Buyer party. The Buyer shall have the right, from time to time and at its discretion, to add other entities to the list comprising the Buyer. The Buyer may participate alongside the Company in any investment the Company makes for as long as the CL Agreement is in effect. The Company may at any time prepay an outstanding Note (principal and accrued interest) in full by paying the Buyer an amount in cash equal to 115% multiplied by the then outstanding principal amount of the Note, as well as the accrued and unpaid interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Note, provided however that in the event the Company seeks to exercise this right the Buyer will first have the option to fully convert the Note, or any remaining amount outstanding under it, into Common Stock of the Company, and the conversion amount will be equal to the amount the Company would have paid to the Buyer had the Buyer not exercised this option.

Engagement Agreements with Directors and Officers

 

There are currently no engagement agreements in effect with any directors or officers. The Company has newly appointed directors, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer.

 

Exculpation, Indemnification and Insurance

 

The Company’s Bylaws permit it to exculpate, indemnify and insure certain of its directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted under the laws of the State of Delaware or other applicable law. In addition, the Company intends to enter into indemnification agreements with its directors and officers, exculpating them from a breach of their duty of care to the Company to the fullest extent permitted by law and undertaking to indemnify them to the fullest extent permitted by law, subject to certain exceptions, to the extent that these liabilities are not covered by insurance. The Company also maintains directors’ and officers’ liability insurance. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the Company, the Company have been informed that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.
