NOTE 1: GENERAL

 

A. Organizational Background

 

Viewbix Inc. (formerly known as Virtual Crypto Technologies, Inc.) (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Delaware on August 16, 1985, under a predecessor name, The InFerGene Company (“InFerGene Company”). On August 25, 1995, a wholly owned subsidiary of InFerGene Company merged with Zaxis International, Inc., an Ohio corporation, which following such merger, the surviving entity, InFerGene Company, changed its name to Zaxis International, Inc (“Zaxis”). In 2015 the Company changed its name to Emerald Medical Applications Corp., subsequent to which the Company, through its subsidiarity, was engaged in the development of technology for use in detection of skin cancer. On January 29, 2018, the Company ceased its business operations in this field.

 

On January 17, 2018, the Company formed a new wholly owned subsidiary under the laws of the State of Israel, Virtual Crypto Technologies Ltd. (“VCT Israel”), to develop and market software and hardware products facilitating and supporting the purchase and/or sale of cryptocurrencies. Effective as of March 7, 2018, the Company’s name was changed from Emerald Medical Applications Corp. to Virtual Crypto Technologies, Inc. VCT Israel ceased its business operation in 2019 and prior to consummation of the Recapitalization Transaction. On January 27, 2020, VCT Israel was sold to a third party for NIS 50 thousand (approximately $13).

 

On February 7, 2019, the Company entered into a share exchange agreement (the “Share Exchange Agreement” or the “Recapitalization Transaction”) with Gix Internet Ltd., a company organized under the laws of the State of Israel (“Gix” or “Parent Company’’), pursuant to which, Gix assigned, transferred and delivered its 99.83% holdings in Viewbix Ltd., a company organized under the laws of the State of Israel (“Viewbix Israel”), to the Company in exchange for shares of the Company, which resulted in Viewbix Israel becoming a subsidiary of the Company. In connection with the Share Exchange Agreement, effective as of August 7, 2019, the Company’s name was changed from Virtual Crypto Technologies, Inc. to Viewbix Inc.

 

B. Reorganization Transaction

 

On December 5, 2021, the Company entered into a certain Agreement and Plan of Merger with Gix Media Ltd. (“Gix Media”), an Israeli company and the majority-owned (77.92%) subsidiary of Gix, the Parent Company and Vmedia Merger Sub Ltd., an Israeli company and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”), pursuant to which, Merger Sub merged with and into Gix Media, with Gix Media being the surviving entity and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Reorganization Transaction”).

 

On September 19, 2022, (the “Closing Date”) the Reorganization Transaction was consummated and as a result, all outstanding ordinary shares of Gix Media, having no par value (the “Gix Media Shares”) were delivered to the Company in exchange for the Company’s shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”). As a result of the Reorganization Transaction, the former holders of Gix Media Shares, who previously held approximately 68% of the Company’s Common Stock, hold approximately 97% of the Company’s Common Stock, and Gix Media became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

B. Reorganization Transaction (Cont.)

 

As the Company and Gix Media Ltd. were consolidated both by the Parent Company and Medigus Ltd. (the “Ultimate Parent”), before and after the Reorganization Transaction, the Reorganization Transaction was accounted for as a transaction between entities under common control. Accordingly, the financial information of the Company and Gix Media Ltd. is presented in these financial statements, for all periods presented, reflecting the historical cost of the Company and Gix Media Ltd., as it is reflected in the consolidated financial statements of the Parent Company, for all periods preceding March 1, 2022, the date the Ultimate Parent obtained a controlling interest in the Parent Company and as it is reflected in the consolidated financial statements of the Ultimate Parent for all periods subsequent to March 1, 2022.

 

Share and per share data in these financial statements have been retrospectively adjusted, for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2022, to reflect a number of shares that is equivalent to the number of shares of the Company post the Reorganization Transaction.

 

C. Business Overview

 

The Company and its subsidiaries (the “Group”), Gix Media and Cortex Media Group Ltd. (“Cortex”), operate in the field of digital advertising. The Group has two main activities that are reported as separate operating segments: the search segment and the digital content segment.

 

The search segment develops a variety of technological software solutions, which perform automation, optimization, and monetization of internet campaigns, for the purposes of obtaining and routing internet user traffic to its customers. The search segment activity is conducted by Gix Media.

 

The digital content segment is engaged in the creation and editing of content, in different languages, for different target audiences, for the purposes of generating revenues from leading advertising platforms, including Google, Facebook, Yahoo and Apple, by utilizing such content to obtain and route internet user traffic for its customers. The digital content segment activity is conducted by Cortex.

 

As of December 31, 2022, Gix Media held 70% of Cortex’s share capital.

 

On January 23, 2023, Gix Media acquired an additional 10% of the share capital of Cortex, increasing its holdings to 80% in consideration for $2,625 (the “Subsequent Purchase”). The Subsequent Purchase was financed by Gix Media’s existing cash balances and by a long-term bank loan received on January 17, 2023, in the amount of $1,500.

 

The Subsequent Purchase was recorded as a transaction with non-controlling interests in the Company’s statement of changes in shareholders equity for the nine month period ended September 30, 2023.

 

D. Reverse Stock Split

 

In connection with the Closing of the Reorganization Transaction, the Company filed an Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Amended COI”) with the Secretary of State of Delaware, effective as of August 31, 2022, pursuant to which, concurrently with the effectiveness of the Amended COI, the Company, among other things, effected a reverse stock split of its Common Stock at a ratio of 1-for-28. Share and per share data in these financial statements have been retrospectively adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2022.

 

E. Going Concern

 

As a result of the decrease in user traffic during the three month period ending September 30, 2023, and the impact of the ongoing ‘Iron Swords’ war in Israel, which commenced subsequent to the balance sheet date (see note 10), the Company’s operations were adversely affected. While management expects the Company to continue to generate positive cash flows from its operations, such a decline may reasonably result in the Company’s inability to repay its debt obligations during the 12 month period following the issuance date of these financial statements. These prevailing conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

Management’s plans in light of these uncertainties include negotiating the terms of its debt instrument with Bank Leumi (see note 6) or issuing additional equity or debt instruments in order to raise capital. However, there can be no assurance that such financing alternatives will consummate or will be available on terms acceptable to the Company.

 

These interim financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of assets, carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that may be required should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
