NOTE 1:-GENERAL (CONT.)
The first clinical study to be performed as part of the CHA Agreement will be a Phase II trial in Intermittent Claudication. This study was approved in November 2013 by South Korea’s Ministry of Food and Drug Safety.
Upon the first regulatory approval for a PLX product in South Korea, for the specified indications, Pluristem and CHA will establish an equally owned joint venture. The purpose of the joint venture will be to commercialize PLX cell products in South Korea.
Pluristem will be able to use the data generated by CHA to pursue the development of PLX product candidates outside of South Korea.
In addition, and as contemplated by the CHA Agreement, in December 2013, Pluristem and CHA executed the mutual investment pursuant to which Pluristem issued 2,500,000 shares of its common stock in consideration for 1,011,504 shares of CHA, which reflects total consideration to each of Pluristem and CHA of approximately $10,414. The investment in CHA shares is presented as “Marketable Securities” and classified as available-for-sale in accordance with ASC 320 – “Investments - Debt and Equity Securities”.
The CHA Agreement contains customary termination provisions, including in the event the parties do not reach an agreement upon development plan for conducting the clinical trials. Upon termination of this CHA Agreement, the license granted thereunder will terminate and all rights included therein will revert to the Company, whereupon the Company will be free to enter into agreements with any other third parties for the granting of a license in or outside South Korea or to deal in any other manner with such rights as it shall see fit at its sole discretion.
Each party had agreed to hold the other party’s shares for at least one year before selling any of such shares. The restriction period ended in December 2014. The parties also agreed to give an irrevocable proxy to the other party’s management with respect to the voting power of the shares issued.

NOTE 2:- BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CON.)

c. | Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

d. | Fair value of financial instruments

The carrying amounts of the Company's financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, short-term and restricted bank deposits, trade payable and other accounts payable and accrued liabilities, approximate fair value because of their generally short term maturities.
The Company measures its investments in marketable securities and derivative instruments at fair value under ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC 820”). Fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or a liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, ASC 820 establishes a three-tier value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in the valuation methodologies in measuring fair value:
Level 1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2 - Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
The fair value hierarchy also requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The Company categorized each of its fair value measurements in one of these three levels of hierarchy.

e. | Derivative financial instruments

The Company uses forward contracts and options strategies (“derivative instruments”) primarily to manage exposure to foreign currency. The Company accounts for derivatives and hedging based on ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging” (“ASC 815”). ASC 815 requires the Company to recognize all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities on the balance sheet at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value (i.e., gains or losses) of derivative instruments depends on whether it has been designated and qualifies as part of a hedging relationship and further, on the type of hedging relationship. For those derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as hedging instruments, the Company must designate the hedging instrument, based upon the exposure being hedged, as a fair value hedge, cash flow hedge, or a hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation.
If the derivative instruments meet the definition of a hedge and are so designated, depending on the nature of the hedge, changes in the fair value of such derivatives will either be offset against the change in fair value of the hedged assets, liabilities, or firm commitments through earnings, or recognized in other comprehensive income until the hedged item is recognized in the statement of operations. The ineffective portion of a derivative’s change in fair value is recognized in the statement of operations.

NOTE 2:- BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CON.)
Cash Flow Hedges. The Company entered into forward contracts to hedge against the risk of overall changes in future cash flow from payments of payroll and related expenses denominated in New Israeli Shekels (“NIS”). The Company measured the fair value of the contracts in accordance with ASC 820 (classified as level 2). The gain or loss on the effective portion of a cash flow hedge is initially reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income and subsequently reclassified into operating expenses in the same period or periods in which the payroll and related expenses are recognized, or reclassified into “Financial income (expenses), net”, if the hedged transaction becomes probable of not occurring. Any gain or loss after a hedge is no longer designated, because it is no longer probable of occurring or it is related to an ineffective portion of a cash flow hedge is recognized in the statement of operations immediately. As of December 31, 2014, the Company had forward contracts in place to hedge future payroll and related expenses in NIS of approximately $3,340, with a fair value of approximately $62 presented in “other current liabilities”. The net unrealized loss on the effective portion of these cash flow hedges was $66. The net loss realized in statement of operations during the three and six-month periods ended December 31, 2014, resulting from the cash flow hedge transactions, amounted to approximately $156 and $201, respectively. The forward contracts on the Company’s future NIS payroll and related expenses will settle by June 2015.
Fair Value Hedges. The Company entered into forward contracts designated as fair value hedges to hedge foreign currency risks for its investment denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. The Company measured the fair value of the contracts in accordance with ASC 820 (classified as level 2). Gains and losses on these contracts are recognized in "Financial income (expenses), net", along with the offsetting losses and gains of the related hedged items.
In connection with the investment in CHA shares (see Note 1d), an available-for-sale marketable security denominated in Korean Won, the Company entered into a forward contract to hedge against the foreign currency risk between the Korean Won and the U.S. dollar. The notional principal of this contract was $11,000. The forward contract expired on December 26, 2014, resulting in net gain of $59.
Other Derivatives. Other derivatives that are non-designated consist primarily of options strategies to minimize the risk associated with the foreign exchange effects of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in NIS. The Company measured the fair value of the contracts in accordance with ASC 820 (classified as level 2). The net gains (losses) recognized in “Financial income (expenses), net” during the three and six-month periods ended December 31, 2014, and 2013 were $59, $(139) and $(57), $(50), respectively.

g. | Recent Accounting Pronouncement

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" (“ASU 2014-09”). ASU 2014-09 supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in “Revenue Recognition (Topic 605)”, and requires entities to recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-09 on its consolidated financial statements.

The following table presents gross unrealized losses and fair values for those investments that were in an unrealized loss position as of December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014, and the length of time that those investments have been in a continuous loss position:

|  | Less than 12 months |  |  | 12 months or greater |
|  | Fair Value |  |  | Gross unrealized loss |  |  | Fair Value |  |  | Gross unrealized loss |
As of December 31, 2014 (Unaudited) |  | $ | 13,447 |  |  | $ | (1,561 | ) |  | $ | 312 |  |  | $ | (18 | )
As of June 30, 2014 |  | $ | 851 |  |  | $ | (17 | ) |  | $ | 463 |  |  | $ | (12 | )

The Company typically invests in highly-rated securities. When evaluating the investments for other-than-temporary impairment, the Company reviews factors such as the length of time and extent to which fair value has been below cost basis, the financial condition of the issuer and any changes thereto, and the Company's intent to sell, or whether it is more likely than not it will be required to sell, the investment before recovery of the investment's amortized cost basis.
Based on the above factors, the Company concluded that unrealized losses on all available-for-sale securities were not other-than-temporary and no credit loss was present for any of its investments. As such, the Company did not recognize any impairment charges on outstanding securities during the three and six-month periods ended December 31, 2014.

As used in this quarterly report, the terms “we”, “us”, “our”, the “Company” and “Pluristem” mean Pluristem Therapeutics Inc. and our wholly owned subsidiary, Pluristem Ltd., unless otherwise indicated or as otherwise required by the context.
Overview
We are a bio-therapeutics company developing off-the-shelf allogeneic cell therapy products for the treatment of multiple ischemic and inflammatory conditions, with our lead indications focusing on cardiovascular, orthopedic, pulmonary, hematological, and women’s health diseases. Our patented PLX (PLacental eXpanded) cells function as a platform that releases a number of therapeutic proteins in response to various local and systemic inflammatory and ischemic signals, generated by the patient’s own body. PLX cells are grown using our proprietary 3D micro-environment technology that produces a product that requires no tissue matching prior to administration.
We were incorporated as a Nevada corporation in 2001. We have a wholly owned subsidiary in Israel called Pluristem Ltd. We operate in one segment and our operations are focused on the research, development, clinical trials and manufacturing of cell therapeutics and related technologies.
Our strategy is to develop and produce cell therapy products for the treatment of multiple disorders using several methods of administration, such as intravenous and intramuscular injections. We plan to execute this strategy independently, using our own personnel, and through relationships with research and clinical institutions or in collaboration with other companies, such as United and CHA. We have built a Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) grade facility and we are planning to have in-house production capacity to grow clinical-grade PLX cells in commercial quantities.
Our focus for 2015 is to make significant progress in our clinical pipeline and shorten the time to market our first product. We intend to leverage the new regulatory environments in Europe and Japan that now offer unique opportunities for accelerated paths to bring new products to the market. These new pathways create substantial opportunities for us and for the cell therapy industry as a whole. We will explore these accelerated pathways for several of our current clinical indications, such as critical limb ischemia (CLI), as well as for carefully selected hematologic indications, which represent substantial unmet needs that we hope to address with our second product. We will continue developing placenta-derived cell therapy products that we anticipate will lead to significant improvement in the lives of patients, and expect to demonstrate the real-world impact and value of our pipeline, technology platform and commercial-scale manufacturing capacity. We made progress in our Phase II intermittent claudication trial, a randomized, double blind, placebo controlled, multinational study. We added sites in South Korea to this trial, which was already underway in Israel, U.S. and Germany. As of today, we have 23 active clinical sites, and expect to complete recruitment of this Phase II trial in 2015. We also anticipate that our partner, United, will complete an ongoing Phase I trial of PLX-PAD cells in pulmonary arterial hypertension, which will potentially lay the groundwork for a Phase II study. We plan to continue the progress toward achieving regulatory approvals for our phase I/II Preeclampsia study, study and advance phase II/III study in an orthopedic indication. and phase I/III critical limb ischemia study.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS – SIX AND THREE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2014 COMPARED TO SIX AND THREE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2013.
Revenues
Revenues for the six and three month periods ended December 31, 2014, and for the six and three month periods ended December 31, 2013, were $190,000 and $95,000, respectively. All such revenues are derived from the United Agreement.
The Company estimated the performance period of the development of approximately 8 years as of December 31, 2014. The license fee will be recognized on a straight line basis as revenue over the estimated development period.
Research and Development Expenses, Net
Research and development expense, net (costs less participation and grants by the OCS and other parties) for the six months ended December 31, 2014 increased by 8% from $8,230,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2013 to $8,916,000. This increase is attributed to increase in stock-based compensation expenses related to our employees, an increase in our salaries due to, among other things, an increase of 5 employees as compared to the average number of employees in the six months ended December 31, 2013, and a decrease in the OCS participation due to the timing in which the OCS approval was granted. This increase is offset by a decrease in materials consumption and a decrease in payments to consultants and subcontractor.
Research and development expense, net, for the three months ended December 31, 2014 decreased by 4% from $5,107,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2013 to $4,879,000. This decrease is attributed to a decrease in materials consumption and a decrease in payments to consultants and subcontractor, offset by a decrease in the OCS participation, due to the timing in which the OCS approval was granted, and an increase in stock-based compensation expenses related to our employees.

General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses for the six months ended December 31, 2014 decreased by 16% from $3,804,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2013 to $3,191,000, mainly due to a decrease in stock-based compensation expenses related to our directors and officers and attributable to the timing of the grant of the restricted stock units (RSUs), offset by an increase in salaries due to, among other things, hiring 4 new employees since December 2013.
General and administrative expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2014 decreased by 23% from $1,975,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2013 to $1,513,000, mainly due to a decrease in stock-based compensation expenses related to our employees, directors and officers, offset by an increase in salaries due to, among other things, an increase of 5 employees as compared to the average number of employees in the three months ended December 31, 2013.
Financial Expense, Net
Financial expense, net, increased from a net income of $390,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2014 to a net expense of $232,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2014, mainly due to an increase in exchange rates expenses, related to the strength of the U.S. dollar against the New Israeli Shekel (NIS), in the six months ended December 31, 2014. This increase is offset by an increase in gains related to our sale of our marketable securities.
Financial expense, net, increased from a net income of $285,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2014 to a net income of $56,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2014, mainly due to an increase in exchange rate expenses, related to the strength of the U.S. dollar against the NIS, in the three months ended December 31, 2014. This increase is offset by an increase in gains related to our sale of our marketable securities.
Net Loss
Net loss for the six and three month periods ended December 31, 2014 was $12,156,000 and $6,245,000, respectively, as compared to net loss of $11,460,000 and $6,705,000 for the six and three month periods ended December 31, 2013, respectively. The changes were due to the increased expenses, as described above. Net loss per share for the six and three month periods ended December 31, 2014 was $0.17 and $0.09, respectively, as compared to $0.19 and $0.11 for the six and three month periods ended December 31, 2013.
For the six and three month periods ended December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we had weighted average shares of common stock outstanding of 69,610,528, 70,070,509 and 60,379,352, 61,510,550 respectively, which were used in the computations of net loss per share for the six and three-month periods.
The increase in weighted average common shares outstanding reflects the issuance of additional shares, mainly the shares issued under an At Market Issuance Sales Agreement during February, March, and June 2014, as well as shares issued as a result of exercise of warrants and options, shares issued under a private placement in October 2014, and issuances of RSUs to employees and consultants.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of December 31, 2014, our total current assets were $47,133,000 and total current liabilities were $5,173,000. On December 31, 2014, we had a working capital surplus of $41,960,000, stockholders' equity of $49,137,000 and an accumulated deficit of $125,990,000. We finance our operations and plan to continue doing so from our existing cash, issuances of our securities, licensing fees and other payments under licensing agreements, and funds from grants from the OCS.
Cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2014 amounted to $6,961,000 compared to $4,626,000 as of December 31, 2013. Cash balances changed in the six months ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 for the reasons presented below.

Operating activities used cash of $9,026,000 in the six months ended December 31, 2014, compared to $8,107,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2013. Cash used in operating activities in the six months ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 consisted primarily of payments of salaries to our employees, and payments of fees to our consultants, suppliers, subcontractors, and professional services providers including the costs of clinical studies, offset by an OCS grant.
Investing activities provided cash of $10,720,000 in the six months ended December 31, 2014, compared to $2,547,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2013. The investing activities in the six months ended December 31, 2014 consisted primarily of the withdrawal of $11,072,000 of short term deposits and proceeds of $2,710,000 from the sale and redemption of marketable securities, offset by investing $2,513,000 in marketable securities and the purchase of property and equipment in the amount of $552,000. The investing activities in the six months ended December 31, 2013 consisted primarily of the withdrawal of $7,961,000 of short term deposits and proceeds of $3,546,000 from the sale and redemption of marketable securities, offset by investing $7,904,000 in marketable securities and the purchase of property and equipment in the amount of $1,169,000.
Financing activities generated cash of $774,000 during the six months ended December 31, 2014, compared to $1,179,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2013. The cash generated in the six months ended December 31, 2014 from financing activities is from exercises of warrants and options by shareholders, and proceeds from shares of our common stock issued in a private placement. The cash generated in the six months ended December 31, 2013 from financing activities was from exercises of warrants by shareholders.
From July 2014 through December 2014, a total of 1,449,010 warrants were exercised via “cashless” exercise, resulting in the issuance of 675,067 shares of common stock to investors of the Company. In addition, 147,667 warrants were exercised for cash and resulted in the issuance of 147,667 shares of common stock to investors of the Company. The aggregate cash consideration received was $244,000.
In October 2014, we issued 200,000 shares of our common stock to an investor in a private placement. The aggregate cash consideration received was $528,000. These cash proceeds will be used for the building of new laboratories in our rented facility.
In December 2014, we issued 100,004 shares of restricted stock to our new laboratories facility contractor. The restricted stock is linked to performance milestones with respect to the building of new laboratories in our rented facility. These milestones have not been met yet. The fair value of the restricted stock on the grant date amounted to approximately $255,000.
During the six months ended December 31, 2014, we received cash of approximately $3,985,000 from the OCS towards our research and development expenses. According to the OCS grant terms, we are required to pay royalties at a rate of 3% - 4% on sales of products and services derived from technology developed using this and other OCS grants until 100% of the dollar-linked grants amount plus interest are repaid. In the absence of such sales, no payment is required. During the six months ended December 31, 2014, we paid $5,692 in royalties to the OCS.
As of today, the currency of our financial portfolio is mainly in U.S. dollars and we use forward and options contracts in order to hedge our exposures to currencies other than the U.S. dollar. For more information, please see Item 7A. - “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” in our Annual Report of Form 10-K filed on September 11, 2014.
We have an effective Form S-3 registration statement, filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (Securities Act) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) using a “shelf” registration process. Under this shelf registration process, we may, from time to time, sell common stock, preferred stock and warrants to purchase common stock, and units of two or more of such securities in one or more offerings up to a total dollar amount of $200 million.
Outlook
We have accumulated a deficit of $125,990,000 since our inception in May 2001. We do not expect to generate any revenues from sales of products in the next twelve months. Our products will likely not be ready for sale for at least three years, if at all. Our cash needs will increase in the foreseeable future. We expect to generate revenues, which in the short and medium terms will unlikely exceed our costs of operations, from the sale of licenses to use our technology or products, as we have in the United Agreement. Our management believes that we may need to raise additional funds before we have cash flow from operations that can materially decrease our dependence on our existing cash and other liquidity resources. We are continually looking for sources of funding, including non-diluting sources such as the OCS grants, sales of our common stock or sales of the marketable securities we hold, as well as the CHA shares we hold.
We believe that we have sufficient cash to fund our operations for at least the next 12 months.
