Exhibit 99.1

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT TO THE SHAREHOLDERS OF

MICROBOT MEDICAL LTD.

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Microbot Medical Ltd. (“the Company”), which comprise the balance sheets as of December 31, 2015 and 2014 and the related statement of operations, statements of changes in shareholders’ equity (deficit) and statements of cash flows for the two years then ended and the related notes to the financial statements.

Management’s Responsibility for the Consolidated Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditors’ Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the Company’s preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2015 and 2014 and the results of operations, changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the two years then ended in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America.

Without qualifying our opinion, we draw attention to Note 1D to the financial statements regarding risk factors and the Company’s business condition. As described in that note, the Company is dependent on outside financing and on the continuing support of its investors.

  C.   Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions pertaining to transactions and matters whose ultimate effect on the financial statements cannot precisely be determined at the time of financial statements preparation. Although these estimates are based on management’s best judgment, actual results may differ from these estimates.

 

  D.   Risk factors and Company’s business condition

The Company has a limited operating history and faces a number of risks, including uncertainties regarding the development of its product. Additionally, the Company expects that it will continue to incur significant operating costs and losses in connection with the development of its products and financing of its business development operations.

As of the date of the financial statements, the continuation of the Company’s activities and its obligations are dependent upon the receipt of financing from its shareholders or new investors

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

  A.   Basis of presentation

The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in United Sates of America (“US GAAP”).

 

  B.   Financial statement in U.S. dollars

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.)

 

  B.   Financial statement in U.S. dollars (Cont.)

 

All transaction gains and losses from re-measurement of monetary balance sheet items denominated in non-dollar currencies are reflected in the statement of operations as financial income or expenses, as appropriate.

 

  C.   Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and demand deposits in banks, and other short-term liquid investments (primarily interest-bearing time deposits) with original maturities of less than three months.

 

  D.   Fair value of financial instruments:

The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, other receivable and prepaid expenses, marketable equity securities and other accounts payable approximate their fair value due to the short-term maturity of these instruments.

 

  E.   Fixed assets

Property and equipment are presented at cost, net of investment grants received and less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated based on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, as follows:

 

     %

Research equipment and software

   25-33%

Leasehold improvements

   10  

Furniture and office equipment

   7  

 

  F.   Related parties

Detailed disclosure has been provided regarding transactions with related parties as defined in Accounting Standards Codification 850 (ASC 850). See Note 13 regarding these transactions.

Payments in accordance with Article 14 release the Company from any future severance payments (under the Severance Compensation Act, 1963) with respect of those employees. The aforementioned deposits are not recorded as an asset in the Company’s balance sheet, and there is no liability recorded as the Company does not have a future obligation to make any additional payments.


MICROBOT MEDICAL LTD.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.)

 

  I.   Basic and diluted net loss per share:

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if all potentially dilutive common shares had been issued, using the treasury stock method, in accordance with ASC 260-10 “Earnings per Share”. Potentially dilutive common shares were excluded from the diluted loss per share calculation because they were anti-dilutive.

 

  J.   Research and development expenses, net:

Research and development expenses, are charged to the statement of operations as incurred. Grants for funding of approved research and development projects are recognized at the time the Company is entitled to such grants, on the basis of the costs incurred and applied as a deduction from the research and development expenses.

 

  K.   Convertible debentures:

Proceeds from the sale of debt securities with a conversion feature are allocated to equity based on the intrinsic value of such conversion feature in accordance with ASC 470-20 “Debt with Conversion and Other Options”, with a corresponding discount on the debt instrument recorded in liabilities which is amortized in finance expense over the term of the loan.

 

  L.   Share-based compensation

The Company applies ASC 718-10, “Share-Based Payment,” which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expenses for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors including employee stock options under the Company’s stock plans based on estimated fair values.

ASC 718-10 requires companies to estimate the fair value of equity-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as an expense over the requisite service periods in the Company’s statement of operations.

The Company recognizes compensation expenses for the value of non-employee awards based on the straight-line method over the requisite service period of each award, net of estimated forfeitures.

The Company estimates the fair value of stock options granted as equity awards using a Black-Scholes options pricing model. The option-pricing model requires a number of assumptions, of which the most significant are share price, expected volatility and the expected option term (the time from the grant date until the options are exercised or expire). Expected volatility is estimated based on volatility of similar companies in the technology sector. The Company has historically not paid dividends and has no foreseeable plans to issue dividends. The risk-free interest rate is based on the yield from governmental zero-coupon bonds with an equivalent term. The expected option term is calculated for options granted to employees and directors using the “simplified” method. Grants to non-employees are based on the contractual term. Changes in the determination of each of the inputs can affect the fair value of the options granted and the results of operations of the Company.
