NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN, LIQUIDITY AND OTHER UNCERTAINTIES

 

Liquidity and Going Concern

 

The Company’s ability to continue to operate is dependent mainly on its ability to successfully market and sell its products and the receipt of additional financing until profitability is achieved. In August 2023, the Company received net proceeds of $4,215,000 from the sale of our equity securities. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company has incurred losses as well as negative cash outflows from operating activities and expects to incur losses and negative cash outflows from operating activities through at least fiscal year 2024. Because the Company does not have sufficient resources to fund its operations for the next twelve months from the date of this filing and there could be a significant arbitration payment due (see Note 9), substantial doubt exists as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

The Company will need to raise additional capital to finance its losses and negative cash flows from operations and may continue to be dependent on additional capital raising as long as our products do not reach commercial profitability. If the Company is unable to obtain additional financing, the development of its product candidates and the Company’s commercial strategy may be impacted and there could be a material adverse effect on the Company’s business and financial condition. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

Other Uncertainties

 

On May 23, 2023, we received a letter from the Listing Qualifications Department of Nasdaq indicating that we no longer comply with the minimum stockholders’ equity requirement under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) (the “Rule”) for continued listing on Nasdaq because our stockholders’ equity of approximately $2.2 million as reported in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2023, is below the required minimum of $2.5 million, and as of May 22, 2023, we did not meet the alternative compliance standards relating to the market value of listed securities of $35 million or net income from continuing operations of $500,000 in the most recently completed fiscal year or in two of the last three most recently completed fiscal years.

 

In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rules, we had 45 calendar days, or until July 7, 2023, to submit a plan to regain compliance. On July 7, 2023, we submitted our plan to regain compliance with the Nasdaq minimum stockholders’ equity standard. On July 19, 2023, the Staff granted the Company’s plan and granted our request for continued listing pursuant to an extension through November 20, 2023 to evidence compliance with the Rule. We believe that upon filing of this Form 10-Q, we should have provided sufficient evidence of compliance with Nasdaq.

 

In October 2023, Hamas terrorists infiltrated Israel’s southern border from the Gaza Strip and conducted a series of attacks on civilian and military targets. Hamas also launched extensive rocket attacks on Israeli population and industrial centers located along Israel’s border with the Gaza Strip and in other areas within the State of Israel. Following the attack, Israel’s security cabinet declared war against Hamas and a military campaign against these terrorist organizations commenced in parallel to their continued rocket and terror attacks. Moreover, the clash between Israel and Hezbollah in Lebanon, may escalate in the future into a greater regional conflict, especially in the northern part of Israel where our Israel office is located which stores approximately $2.1 million worth of our inventory.

 

This conflict could cause an inability to receive supplies and materials, shortages of materials or difficulties in procuring our materials, among others, or conversely, our ability to ship products to our US facilities or overseas customers, may adversely impact our ability to commercialize and manufacture our product candidates and products in a timely manner. This could also cause delays the review of our product candidates by regulatory agencies, which in turn would have a material adverse impact on our ability to commercialize those product candidates.
