Note 3: Significant events in the reportimg period

 

a.Effects of the COVID-19 Pandemic Outbreak:

 

Following the global COVID-19 outbreak, there has been a decrease in economic activity worldwide, including Israel. The spread of the COVID-19 pandemic led, inter alia, to a disruption in the global supply chain, a decrease in global transportation, restrictions on travel and work that were announced by the State of Israel and other countries worldwide as well as a decrease in the value of financial assets and commodities across all markets in Israel and the world.

 

The Company’s business activity and commercial operation were affected by these factors, and the Company has taken several actions to ensure its manufacturing plant remains operational with limited disruption to its business continuity. The Company continues to maintain higher inventory levels of raw materials through its suppliers and service providers to appropriately manage any potential supply disruptions and secure continued manufacturing. In addition, the Company is actively engaging its freight carriers to ensure inbound and outbound international delivery routes remain operational and identify alternative routes, if needed.

 

The Company is complying with the State of Israel mandates and recommendations with respect to its work-force management and has taken several precautionary health and safety measures to safeguard its employees and continues to monitor and assess orders issued by the State of Israel and other applicable governments to ensure compliance with evolving COVID-19 guidelines.

 

While COVID-19 related disruption continues to have various effect on the Company’s business activities, commercial operation, revenues and operational expenses, as a results of the actions taken by the Company to date, its overall results of operations were not materially affected however, a number of factors, including but not limited to, continued effect of the factors mentioned above as well as, continued demand for the Company’s products, including GLASSIA and KEDRAB, in the U.S. market and its distributed products in Israel, financial conditions of the Company’s customer, suppliers and services providers, the Company’s ability to manage operating expenses, additional competition in the markets that the Company competes, regulatory delays, prevailing market conditions and the impact of general economic, industry or political conditions in the U.S., Israel or otherwise, may have an effect on the Company’s future financial position and results of operations.

 

The financial impact of these factors cannot be reasonably estimated at this time due to substantial uncertainty but may materially affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations. The Company assess the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in a number of possible scenarios and concluded that there are no uncertainties that may cast significant doubt on its ability to continue as a going concern or affect significantly on the Company liquidity.
