NOTE 3- ACQUISITION

 

On February 3, 2022, the Company announced it has completed the acquisition of all of the outstanding shares of Isramat Ltd (“Isramat”), an Israeli manufacturer of precision metal parts. In connection with closing of the acquisition, the Company paid NIS 2,800,000 (approximately $879) in cash and issued the shareholders of Isramat 273,774 common shares in the capital of the Company at a price per share of $7.6311.

 

The purchase consideration is being allocated between the acquired tangible assets and intangible assets, based on their fair values.

 

The Company has also recognized a contingent liability with regard to the Isramat deal in the amount of $143.

 

Management is fully responsible for the valuation of the assets. An initial valuation has been completed and a final assessment will be made within one year. The fair value assigned to identifiable intangible assets acquired has been determined by using valuation methods that accounts for replacement costs, using estimates and assumptions determined by management.

 

Based on the above, the Company has initially determined that the purchase price exceeds the fair values of identifiable net assets acquired by approximately $1,538, which is recognized as goodwill.

 

The table below summarizes the preliminary fair value of assets acquired at the purchase date:

 

   February 3, 2022 
     
Working capital other than cash and cash equivalents  $878 
Liability for severance pay fund, net   (35)
Provision for vacation leave   (49)
Property, plant and equipment   636 
Goodwill (*)   1,538 
Total consideration paid (**)  $2,968 
      
Consideration paid in cash  $879 
Consideration paid in common shares in the capital of the Company   2,089 
Total consideration paid (**)  $2,968 

 

(*) Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired. The goodwill is attributed to the expected benefits arising from the synergies of the combination of the activities of the Company and acquired company, and to the value of assembled workforce.

 

Isramat manufactures and sells precision metal parts. Revenue from these sales is recognized when Isramat has delivered the parts to locations specified by its customers and the customers have accepted the parts in accordance with the sales contract.

 

(**) Consideration paid in cash for the purchase of Isramat shares was $879, and the balance of the consideration was settled by the issuance of 273,774 common shares in the capital of the Company at a value of $2,089.

 

The contribution of Isramat’s results to the Company’s consolidated revenues and net loss during the nine months ended September 30, 2022, were $2,887 and $460 respectively.

 

The pro forma financial information presented below is for information purposes only, is subject to a number of estimates, assumptions and other uncertainties, and is not indicative of the results of operations that would have been achieved had the transaction taken place at January 1, 2022. The pro forma financial information is as follows:

NOTE 4 – WARRANT LIABILITY

 

Certain warrants issued in 2020 were issued with an exercise price denominated in Canadian Dollars (CAD) rather than the functional currency of the Company, which is New Israeli Shekels (NIS). These warrants were recorded at their fair value at the end of each reporting period and classified as a derivative liability.

 

During 2021 certain warrant holders agreed to change the exercise price from CAD to NIS and therefore the Company reclassified the balance of the warrant liability in respect of these warrants as equity.

 

As of September 30, 2022, 61,077 of these warrants were exercised, and the remaining 5,437 warrants have expired during the period and therefore the liability is nil.

NOTE 11 - FINANCIAL RISK FACTORS:

 

A. Credit Risk

 

Credit risk from balances with banks and financial institutions is managed by the Company’s management. Investments of surplus funds are made only with approval of management. The Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk for the components of the statement of financial position as of September 30, 2022, is the carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, and accounts receivables included in the Company’s consolidated statement of financial positions.

 

B. Liquidly Risk

 

Liquidity risk is the risk that arises when the maturity of assets and the maturity of liabilities do not match. An unmatched position potentially enhances profitability but can also increase the risk of loss. The Company has procedures with the object of minimizing such loss by maintaining sufficient cash and other highly liquid current assets and by having an available adequate amount of committed credit facilities. The following tables detail the Company’s remaining contractual maturity for its financial liabilities. The tables have been drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities based on the earliest date on which the Company can be required to pay

 

Contractual
   Carrying amounts   Within 1 year   over 1 year 
Trade payables  $2,269   $2,269   $- 
Deferred revenues   139    139    - 
Other accounts payable   1,932    1,586    346 
Loans   1,341    163    1,178 
Lease liability   175    100    75 
Total  $5,856   $4,257   $1,599 

 

C. Market risks:

 

The Company’s’ business of maintenance services of various electronic systems is highly competitive and involves a certain degree of risk. The Company’s business operations will depend largely upon the outcome of continued sales and services to security establishments and the initiation of sales of their products to the civilian markets.

 

The Company’s Cust2Mate business is new, and the Company is aware of competitors in the market. In addition to the regular management oversight and skills required, success in this segment will require the Company to penetrate the market as rapidly as possible.

 

As of September 30, 2022, if the Company’s functional currency (ILS) had strengthened/ weakened by 5% against the USD, with all other variables held constant, the loss for the year would decrease /increase by approximately $89.

D. Interest rate and inflation risks:

 

The Company is exposed to cash flow interest rate risk from long-term borrowings at variable rate. It is currently Company policy that between 50% and 75% of Company borrowings are fixed rate borrowings. This policy is managed centrally. Although the board accepts that this policy neither protects the Company entirely from the risk of paying rates in excess of current market rates nor eliminates fully cash flow risk associated with variability in interest payments, it considers that it achieves an appropriate balance of exposure to these risks.

 

During 2022, the Company’s borrowings at variable rate were denominated in NIS.

 

The Company analyses the interest rate exposure on a quarterly basis. A sensitivity analysis is performed by applying a simulation technique to the liabilities that represent major interest-bearing positions. Various scenarios are run taking into consideration refinancing, renewal of the existing positions, alternative financing and hedging. Based on the simulations performed, the impact on profit and loss and net assets of a 100 basis point shift (being the maximum reasonable expectation of changes in interest rates) would be approximately 22.

 

The Company is exposed to inflation risks. Management of the Company does not believe that the current levels of inflation will have a material effect on the business activities of the Company.

 

E. Capital management

 

The Company considers its capital to be comprised of shareholders’ equity. The Company’s objectives in managing its capital are to maintain its ability to continue as a going concern and to further develop its business. To effectively manage the Company’s capital requirements, the Company has a planning and budgeting process in place to meet its strategic goals. In order to facilitate the management of its capital requirements, the Company prepares expenditure budgets that are updated as necessary depending on various factors, including successful capital deployment and general industry conditions. Management reviews the capital structure on a regular basis to ensure the above objectives are met. There have been no changes to the Company’s approach to capital management during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. There are no externally imposed restrictions on the Company’s capital.

 

NOTE 12 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS:

 

  a. On November 13, 2022, the Company received a further NIS 6 million ($1.7 million) in respect of the Yochananof order of smart carts.
