NOTE 1 – GENERAL

 

A. Description of business

 

Microbot Medical Inc. (the “Company”) is a pre-commercial, clinical-stage medical device company specializing in the research, design and development of next generation robotic endoluminal surgery devices targeting the minimally invasive surgery space. The Company is primarily focused on leveraging its micro-robotic technologies with the goal of redefining surgical robotics while improving surgical outcomes for patients.

 

The Company incorporated on August 2, 1988 in the State of Delaware under the name Cellular Transplants, Inc. The original Certificate of Incorporation was restated on February 14, 1992 to change the name of the Company to Cyto Therapeutics, Inc. On May 24, 2000, the Certificate of Incorporation as restated was further amended to change the name of the Company to StemCells, Inc.

 

On November 28, 2016, the Company consummated a transaction pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated August 15, 2016, with Microbot Medical Ltd., a private medical device company organized under the laws of the State of Israel (“Microbot Israel”). On the same day and in connection with the Merger, the Company changed its name from StemCells, Inc. to Microbot Medical Inc. On November 29, 2016, the Company’s common stock began trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “MBOT”.

 

The Company and Microbot Israel, its sole subsidiary, are sometimes collectively referred to as the “Company” as the context may require.

 

B. Risk Factors

 

To date, the Company has not generated revenues from its operations. As of March 31, 2025, the Company had cash equivalents and marketable securities balance of approximately $30,390, excluding restricted cash. Due to continuing research and development and pre-commercialization activities, the Company expects to continue to incur additional losses for the foreseeable future. Notwithstanding these conditions, the Company’s management has concluded that the available funds as of the balance sheet date, combined with the capital raises completed as described in Note 6, are sufficient to fund the Company’s operations for more than twelve months from the issuance date of these financial statements.

 

The Company expects to raise additional funds through future issuances of either debt and/or equity securities, including upon the cash exercise of outstanding investment options, and possibly additional grants from the Israeli Innovation Authority and other government institutions. The Company’s ability to raise additional capital in the equity and debt markets is dependent on a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the market demand for the Company’s stock, which itself is subject to a number of development and business risks and uncertainties, as well as the uncertainty that the Company would be able to raise such additional capital at a price or on terms that are favorable to the Company.

 

Israel-Hamas War

 

On October 7, 2023, the State of Israel, where our research and development and other operations are primarily based, suffered a surprise attack by hostile forces from Gaza, which led to Israeli military operation at first in Gaza and then in Lebanon. These military operations and related activities, such as the recent collapse of the Assad regime in Syria and Israel’s subsequent military operations in Syria, and the recent escalation of military operations by and against the Houthis in Yemen, are on-going as of the issuance date of these financial statements, although there have been temporary cease fires from time to time.

 

 

The Company has considered various ongoing risks relating to the military operations and related matters, including:

 

That some of our Israeli subcontractors, vendors, suppliers and other companies in which the Company relies, are currently only partially active, as instructed by the relevant authorities; and

 

A slowdown in the number of international flights in and out of Israel.

 

The Company is closely monitoring how the military operations and related activities could adversely affect our anticipated milestones and our Israel-based activities to support future clinical and regulatory milestones, including our ability to import materials that are required to construct the Company’s devices and to ship them outside of Israel. As of the issuance date of these financial statements, the Company has determined that there have not been any materially adverse effects on its business or operations, but the Company continues to monitor the situation, as any collapse of a cease-fire with Hamas or Hezbollah that may be in effect from time to time, or any further or future escalation or change could result in a material adverse effect on the ability of  the Company’s Israeli office to support its clinical and regulatory activities. The Company does not have any specific contingency plans in the event of any such escalation or change.

 

C. Unaudited Interim Financial Statements

 

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (U.S. GAAP) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regulations. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments except as otherwise discussed). These interim consolidated condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s latest audited financial statements.

 

Operating results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2025.
