NOTE 1:-

GENERAL

 

	a.	NanoVibronix, Inc. (“the Company”), a U.S. (Delaware) corporation, commenced operations on October 20, 2003 and is a medical device company focusing on noninvasive biological response-activating devices that target wound healing and pain therapy and can be administered at home, without the assistance of medical professionals.
		The Company’s principal research and development activities are conducted in Israel through its wholly-owned subsidiary, NanoVibronix (Israel 2003) Ltd., a company registered in Israel, which commenced operations in October 2003.

 

b.

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. The Company has incurred losses in the amount of $3,324 during the nine month period ended September 30, 2017 and has an accumulated deficit of $26,741 as of September 30, 2017, and accumulated negative cash flow from operating activities in the amount of $1,402. The Company’s management believes that the Company has sufficient capital to execute its business plan over the next twelve months. If the Company is unable to successfully commercialize its products over the next twelve months it may need to raise additional capital at a later time. There are no assurances that the Company would be able to raise additional capital, if required, on terms favorable to it.   In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to state fairly the financial position and results of operations of the Company. These consolidated financial statements and notes thereto are unaudited and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016, as found in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 26, 2017. The balance sheet for December 31, 2016 was derived from the Company’s audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016. The results of operations for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of results that could be expected for the entire fiscal year.

	c.	On February 9, 2015, the Company filed a Registration Statement on Form 10 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, to register its Common stock under Section 12(g) of that act. The Form 10 was effective on April 10, 2015.

d.

On November 6, 2017, the Company closed an underwritten public offering (the “Offering”) of shares of the Company's common stock and warrants resulting in net proceeds of approximately $5,100 (See Note 11(3)).

 

NOTE 2:-

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The significant accounting policies applied in the annual consolidated financial statements of the Company as of December 31, 2016 are applied consistently in these financial statements.

 

NOTE 3:-

UNAUDITED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2017 have been prepared in accordance with the U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements include all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s consolidated financial position as of September 30, 2017, the Company’s consolidated results of operation for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2017 and the Company’s consolidated cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2017.

 

NOTE 4:-

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

 

ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC 820”), defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact and considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, such as inherent risk, transfer restrictions and risk of nonperformance.

 

 

NANOVIBRONIX, INC. AND ITS SUBSIDIARY

 

ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. ASC 820 establishes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value.

 

Level 1 -

quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

 

Level 2 -

inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; or

 

Level 3 -

unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

 

During February 2013, the Company signed a convertible Promissory Notes agreement (the “Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company issued secured convertible Promissory Notes (the “Notes”) to certain investors on February 5, 2013.  On each of March 28, 2013, June 3, 2013, August 5, 2013, October 7, 2013, December 9, 2013, February 6, 2014, April 1, 2014, May 15, 2014, June 16, 2014, August 7, 2014, September 7, 2014, October 13, 2014, November 19, 2014 and December 11, 2014, the Agreement and the Notes were amended and restated to increase the principal amount by $100. In addition, with each amendment, the Company issued to the holders of the Note warrants to purchase up to 37,594 shares of common stock in consideration for an additional $100 per amendment. The exercise price at which the warrants may be exercised is $2.66 per share, subject to adjustment for stock splits, fundamental transactions or similar events including “down round” protection. The warrants expire within a period of five years, based on the issuance date. 

 

In April 2015, the holders of the Notes elected to convert the outstanding principal and interest thereunder into shares of the Company’s series C preferred stock. On that date, an aggregate principal balance of $1,500 and $106 in accrued interest were converted into 603,769 shares of series C preferred stock.  The shares of series C preferred stock were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the securities laws of any state, and were offered and sold pursuant to the exemption from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, provided by Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

 

The Company measures the warrants at fair value by applying the Black-Scholes option pricing model in each reporting period until they are exercised or expired, with changes in fair value being recognized in the Company’s consolidated statement of comprehensive loss as financial income or expense.

 

In estimating the warrants’ fair value, the Company used the following assumptions:

 

		September 30,
		2017				2016
Dividend yield (1)			0%				0%
Expected volatility (2)			39.6% - 52.2%				64.1% - 64.4%
Risk-free interest (3)			1.13%-1.50%				0.73%-0.85%
Expected term (years) (4)			0.3-2.1				1.1-3.0

 

	(1)	Dividend yield - was based on the fact that the Company has not paid dividends to its stockholders in the past and does not expect to pay dividends to its stockholders in the future.
	(2)	Expected volatility - was calculated based on actual historical stock price movements of companies in the same industry over a term that is equivalent to the expected term of the warrants.
	(3)	Risk-free interest – was based on yield rate of non-index linked U.S. Federal Reserve treasury stock.
	(4)	Expected term - was based on the maturity date of the warrants.

 

Fair value measurement using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3):

 

		Fair value of warrants to Common stock
Balance at January 1, 2017		$	2,079
Change in fair value of warrants			293
Balance at September 30, 2017		$	2,372

 

 

NANOVIBRONIX, INC. AND ITS SUBSIDIARY

 

Effective as of January 27, 2017, the Company entered into amendments to its two-year warrants (the “Warrant Amendment”) to purchase an aggregate of 420,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $3.00 per share and warrants to purchase an aggregate of 420,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $6.00 per share, issued in January and February 2015, to extend the expiration date of the warrants for two additional years. Pursuant to the Warrant Amendment, warrants to purchase 266,667 shares of common stock at $3.00 per share and warrants to purchase 266,667 shares of common stock at $6.00 per share were to expire on January 29, 2019, and the warrants to purchase 140,000 shares of common stock at $3.00 per share and warrants to purchase 140,000 shares of common stock at $6.00 per share were to expire on February 10, 2019, and the warrants to purchase 13,333 shares of common stock at $3.00 per share and warrants to purchase 13,333 shares of common stock at $6.00 per share were to expire on February 23, 2019. The exercise price and all other terms of the original warrants remain the same. Since substantially all of the warrants to purchase 840,000 shares of common stock subject to the Warrant Amendment are held by the Company’s stockholders, the Warrant Amendment was accounted for as “deemed dividend,” which was measured at the amount equal to the incremental value reflecting the change in the fair value of the warrants before and after the Warrant Amendment. Accordingly, a deemed dividend in the amount of $841 was recorded to the Statement of Changes in Stockholders’ Deficiency as an increase in additional paid-in capital with a corresponding increase in the accumulated deficit.

 

In March 2017, the Company completed a bridge financing, pursuant to which the Company received from four investors $350 of loans and issued to the investors convertible promissory notes (the “2017 Notes”) in an aggregate principal amount of $350 and seven-year warrants (the “Warrants”) to purchase an aggregate of 140,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $5.90 per share (the “Exercise Price”) (see Note 6). The Company measured the Warrants at fair value on their issuance date by applying the Black-Scholes options pricing model, according to the following assumptions:

 

		September 30,
		2017
Dividend yield (1)			0%
Expected volatility (2)		65.16%-65.80%
Risk-free interest (3)		2.23%-2.27%
Expected term (years) (4)			7

 

	(1)	Dividend yield - was based on the fact that the Company has not paid dividends to its stockholders in the past and does not expect to pay dividends to its stockholders in the future.
	(2)	Expected volatility - was calculated based on actual historical stock price movements of companies in the same industry over a term that is equivalent to the expected term of the warrants.
	(3)	Risk-free interest – was based on yield rate of non-index linked U.S. Federal Reserve treasury stock.
	(4)	Expected term - was based on the maturity date of the warrants.

 

 

NANOVIBRONIX, INC. AND ITS SUBSIDIARY

 

In May and June 2017, the Company completed additional bridge financings, pursuant to which the Company received from five investors $680 of loans and issued to the investors 2017 Notes in an aggregate principal amount of $680 and Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 272,000 shares of common stock at the Exercise Price (see Note 6). The Company measured the Warrants at fair value on their issuance date by applying the Black-Scholes options pricing model, according to the following assumptions:

 

		September 30,
		2017
Dividend yield (1)			0%
Expected volatility (2)			65.54%-65.85%
Risk-free interest (3)			2%-2.14%
Expected term (years) (4)			7

 

	(1)	Dividend yield - was based on the fact that the Company has not paid dividends to its stockholders in the past and does not expect to pay dividends to its stockholders in the future.
	(2)	Expected volatility - was calculated based on actual historical stock price movements of companies in the same industry over a term that is equivalent to the expected term of the warrants.
	(3)	Risk-free interest – was based on yield rate of non-index linked U.S. Federal Reserve treasury stock.
	(4)	Expected term - was based on the maturity date of the warrants.

 

In August and September 2017, the Company completed additional bridge financings, pursuant to which the Company received from two investors $350 of loans and issued to the investors 2017 Notes in an aggregate principal amount of $350 and Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 140,000 shares of common stock at the Exercise Price (see Note 6). The Company measured the Warrants at fair value on their issuance date by applying the Black-Scholes options pricing model, according to the following assumptions:

 

		September 30,
		2017
Dividend yield (1)			0%
Expected volatility (2)			39.6%-65.3%
Risk-free interest (3)			1%-2%
Expected term (years) (4)			7

 

	(1)	Dividend yield - was based on the fact that the Company has not paid dividends to its stockholders in the past and does not expect to pay dividends to its stockholders in the future.
	(2)	Expected volatility - was calculated based on actual historical stock price movements of companies in the same industry over a term that is equivalent to the expected term of the warrants.
	(3)	Risk-free interest – was based on yield rate of non-index linked U.S. Federal Reserve treasury stock.
	(4)	Expected term - was based on the maturity date of the warrants.

 

In addition, the Company’s financial instruments also include cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, prepaid expenses and other accounts receivable, trade payables and other accounts payable. The fair value of these financial instruments was not materially different from their carrying values as of September 30, 2017 due to the short-term maturities of such instruments.

NOTE 5:-

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARD

 

1.

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The new standard is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The standard will supersede existing revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance, and will provide companies with a single revenue recognition model for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers. The two permitted transition methods under the new standard are the full retrospective method, in which case the standard would be applied to each prior reporting period presented, or the modified retrospective method, in which case the cumulative effect of applying the standard would be recognized at the date of initial application. The Company is planning to adopt this ASU on January 1, 2018 under the modified retrospective approach, which will result in a cumulative adjustment to retained earnings. The Company expects that, as a result of the adoption of this ASU, the timing of recognizing revenue from sales of products to its distributors under agreements that will allow certain rights of return and other special rights will be generally earlier than under the existing revenue recognition guidance. The Company continues to evaluate the requirements of the standard, which are currently not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

 

2.

In May 2017 the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting. ASU 2017-09 provides guidance about which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting in Topic 718. ASU No. 2017-09 is effective for financial statements issued for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those years. Earlier application is permitted. The adoption of the new requirements of ASU No. 2017-09 are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations

 

3.

In July 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-11, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): I. Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Down Round Features and II.

The principal amount and all accrued but unpaid interest on the 2017 Notes will become due and payable on the date (the “Maturity Date”) that is the earlier of the (i) 5-year anniversary of the date of issuance, or (ii) the date the Company completes an equity financing pursuant to which the Company issues and sells shares of capital stock resulting in aggregate proceeds of at least $2,000 (a “Qualified Financing”). The 2017 Notes bear interest at a rate of 6% per annum, payable on the Maturity Date. To the extent not previously converted, on the Maturity Date, each investor will receive, at the option of the investor, either (a) cash equal to the original principal amount of the 2017 Notes and interest then accrued and unpaid thereon, or (b) shares of common stock or Series C Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company, at a price per share equal to the lesser of: (x) 80% of the amount equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the estimated value of the Company as of the Maturity Date, as determined in good faith by the Company’s board of directors, by (ii) the aggregate number of outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock, as of the Maturity Date on a fully diluted basis, and (y) $5.90 per share, as such amount may be adjusted for any stock split, stock dividend, reclassification or similar events affecting the capital stock of the Company. Upon consummation of a Qualified Financing, the investors may elect to have the outstanding principal and accrued but unpaid interest thereon converted into shares of the same class and series of equity securities sold in such Qualified Financing, provided that the investor may elect to receive shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock instead of shares of common stock, to the extent that common stock are issued in such Qualified Financing, at a price per share equal to the lesser of: (a) 80% of the price per share at which such securities are sold in such Qualified Financing and (b) $5.90 per share, as such amount may be adjusted for any stock split, stock dividend, reclassification or similar events affecting the Company’s capital stock. If there is a change of control and the 2017 Notes have not been previously converted otherwise, the investors may, at their option, (a) receive an amount in cash equal to the sum of the original principal amount of the 2017 Notes and interest then accrued and unpaid thereon, or (b) convert the 2017 Notes and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon into shares of common stock or Series C Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company immediately prior to the closing of such change of control transaction at a price per share equal to the lesser of: (x) 80% of the amount equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the estimated value of the Company implied by the exchange ratio set forth in the agreement governing such change of control transaction, as determined in good faith by the Company’s board of directors, by (ii) the aggregate number of outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock, immediately prior to such change of control on a fully diluted basis, and (y) $5.90 per share, as such amount may be adjusted for any stock split, stock dividend, reclassification or similar events affecting the Company’s capital stock.

Tax expenses. For the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, tax expenses were $33,000 and $28,000, respectively.

The increase resulted from additional expenses incurred from the issuance of the Warrants amortized over the life of the 2017 Notes issued in the first two quarters of 2017 as well as by an increase derived by a higher valuation adjustment of our warrants that were issued with our 2013 and 2015 convertible promissory notes.

 

Tax expenses. For the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, tax expenses were $11,000 and $9,000, respectively. The tax expense is computed by multiplying income before taxes at our Israeli subsidiary by the appropriate tax rate. The increase in our tax expenses was due to increased spending by our Israel subsidiary.

 

Loss. Our net loss increased by approximately $993,000, or 163%, to approximately $1,599,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2017 from approximately $606,000 in the same period of 2016. The increase in net loss resulted primarily from the factors described above.

 

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

We continue to incur losses and negative cash flows from operating activities. We have incurred losses in the amount of $3,324,000 (not $3,3242,000)

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, and through November 14, 2017, we met our short-term liquidity requirements from our existing cash reserves and from proceeds from the sales of convertible promissory notes in an aggregate amount of $1,380,000, as well as the net proceeds of $5,100,000 from our underwritten public offering which closed on November 6, 2017. Our future capital requirements and the adequacy of our available funds will depend on many factors, including our ability to successfully commercialize our products, our development of future products and competing technological and market developments. We intend to use these proceeds to meet our short-term liquidity requirements as well as to advance our long-term plans. It is our current belief that such proceeds will provide sufficient funding to meet our liquidity needs for the next twelve months. While we believe we have sufficient capital to execute our business plan over the next twelve months, there are no assurances that we will not need to raise additional capital at a later time, or that we would be able to raise additional capital, if required, on terms favorable to us.

 

We do not have any material commitments to capital expenditures as of September 30, 2017, and we are not aware of any material trends in capital resources that would impact our business.

 

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2017 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2016

 

General. As of September 30, 2017, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $82,000, compared to approximately $106,000 as of December 31, 2016. The decrease is attributable primarily to our net cash used in operating activities. We have historically met our cash needs through a combination of issuance of equity, borrowing activities and sales. Our cash requirements are generally for product development, research and development cost, marketing and sales activities, finance and administrative cost, capital expenditures and general working capital.

 

Cash used in our operating activities was approximately $1,402,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and $1,107,000 for the same period in 2016. The increase in our cash usage was mainly associated with the increase in our net operating loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2016, for the reasons described above.

 

Cash used in investing activities was $2,000 and $8,000 for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and was related to purchases of fixed assets.

 

Cash provided by financing activities was approximately $1,380,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 derived from proceeds received from the issuance of 2017 Notes and $33,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, which was derived from proceeds from the exercise of certain options.

  

 

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

As of September 30, 2017, we have no off-balance sheet transactions, arrangements, obligations (including contingent obligations), or other relationships with unconsolidated entities or other persons that have, or may have, a material effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

 

Factors That May Affect Future Operations

 

We believe that our future operating results will continue to be subject to quarterly variations based upon a wide variety of factors, including the ordering patterns of our distributors, timing of regulatory approvals, the implementation of various phases of our clinical trials and manufacturing efficiencies due to the learning curve of utilizing new materials and equipment. Our operating results could also be impacted by a weakening of the Euro and strengthening of the New Israeli Shekel, or NIS, both against the U.S. dollar. Lastly, other economic conditions we cannot foresee may affect customer demand, such as individual country reimbursement policies pertaining to our products.

 

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

 

Not applicable.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

(a)

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. As of September 30, 2017, we conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and participation of management including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended). There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.

 

Based upon this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective at the reasonable assurance level as of September 30, 2017.

 

(b)

Changes in Internal Controls. There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended September 30, 2017 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended September 30, 2017 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

Part II – OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

 

From time to time, we may be involved in litigation that arises through the normal course of business. As of the date of this filing, we are not a party to any material litigation nor are we aware of any such threatened or pending litigation.

 

There are no material proceedings in which any of our directors, officers or affiliates or any registered or beneficial shareholder of more than 5% of our common stock, or any associate of any of the foregoing is an adverse party or has a material interest adverse to our interest.

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors -

 

There are numerous and varied risks, known and unknown, that may prevent us from achieving our goals. You should carefully consider the risks described below and the other information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016, including the consolidated financial statements and related notes. If any of the following risks, or any other risks not described below, actually occur, it is likely that our business, financial condition, and/or operating results could be materially adversely affected. In such case, the trading price and market value of our common stock could decline and you may lose part or all of your investment in our common stock. The risks and uncertainties described below include forward-looking statements and our actual results may differ from those discussed in these forward-looking statements.

 

During the three months ended September 30, 2017, there were no material changes to the risk factors previously discussed in Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2016, and Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2017, except for the following:

 

●

The risk factor captioned “There has been a limited market for our common stock and we cannot ensure investors that an active market for our common stock will be sustained” is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

 

Although our shares of common stock are now listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market, we currently have a limited trading volume, which results in higher price volatility for, and reduced liquidity of, our common stock.

 

Although our shares of common stock are now listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market under the symbol “NAOV,” trading volume in our common stock has been limited and an active trading market for our shares of common stock may never develop or be maintained. The absence of an active trading market increases price volatility and reduces the liquidity of our common stock. As long as this condition continues, the sale of a significant number of shares of common stock at any particular time could be difficult to achieve at the market prices prevailing immediately before such shares are offered.

 

●

The following risk factor is hereby added:

 

If we cannot continue to satisfy the continuing listing criteria of the NASDAQ Capital Market, the exchange may subsequently delist our common stock.

 

 

NASDAQ requires us to meet certain financial, public float, bid price and liquidity standards on an ongoing basis in order to continue the listing of our common stock. Generally, we must maintain a minimum amount of stockholders equity and a minimum number of holders of our securities. If we fail to meet any of the continuing listing requirements, our common stock may be subject to delisting. If our common stock is delisted and we are not able to list our common stock on another national securities exchange, we expect our securities would be quoted on an over-the-counter market. If this were to occur, our stockholders could face significant material adverse consequences, including limited availability of market quotations for our common stock and reduced liquidity for the trading of our securities. In addition, we could experience a decreased ability to issue additional securities and obtain additional financing in the future. There can be no assurance that an active trading market for our common stock will develop or be sustained.
