GAMMACAN INTERNATIONAL INC.
(A Development Stage Company)

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - GENERAL:

 

 

 

 

a.

Operations:

 

 

 

 

 

GammaCan International Inc. (A Development Stage Company; “the Company”) was incorporated on October 6, 1998, under the laws of the State of Delaware, under the name of San Jose International, Inc. The Company has no significant revenues and in accordance with Statement of financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) No. 7 “Accounting and Reporting by Development Stage enterprises”, the Company is considered a development stage company.

 

 

 

 

 

On August 19, 2004, the name of the Company was changed from “San Jose International, Inc.” into “GammaCan International, Inc.”.

 

 

 

 

 

Our lead product candidate, VitiGam™, is a first-in-class anti-cancer immunotherapy derived entirely from the plasma of donors with vitiligo, a benign autoimmune skin condition affecting up to 2% of the general population. We are initially utilizing VitiGam™ to target melanoma. We have demonstrated that plasma from individuals with vitiligo contains anti-melanoma activities, and we are using this discovery to develop VitiGam™ for the treatment of Stage III and Stage IV melanoma. The incidence of melanoma, despite new developments in other cancers, continues to increase and has experienced little if any therapeutic progress in the last ten years. We plan to file an Investigational New Drug Application (“IND”) for VitiGam™ in late 2007. We believe that the US Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) is well acquainted with IgG-based therapies and their non-toxic characteristics from a long history of approvals of products based on plasma.

 

 

 

 

 

We have embarked on a non-FDA Phase II clinical trial to test the safety and efficacy of “standard” (e.g., collected and manufactured from healthy donors) IgG in patients with three types of late stage malignancies that have failed to respond to all other standard therapies as well as certain experimental therapies. The cancers evaluated in the non-FDA, open-label Phase II trial were: melanoma, prostate, and colon cancer. We expect the study to close by mid-year 2007.

 

 

 

 

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has net losses for the period from inception (October 6, 1998) through March 31, 2007 of $5,898,268, as well as negative cash flow from operating activities. Presently, the Company does not have sufficient cash resources to meet its requirements in the twelve months following April 1, 2007. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s management estimates that it will be able to finance the Company’s activities through future fund raising.

 

 

 

 

 

These financial statements do not include any adjustments that may be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent on its ability to obtain additional financing as may be required and ultimately to attain profitability.

Unaudited interim financial information

 

 

 

 

 

The accompanying unaudited financial statements of the Company and the subsidiary GammaCan Ltd. (“the Subsidiary”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“US GAAP”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by US GAAP for complete financial statements. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the consolidated annual report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended September 30, 2006.

 

 

 

 

 

In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the six-month period ended March 31, 2007, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended September 30, 2007.

 

 

 

 

c.

Stock based compensation

 

 

 

 

 

On August 17, 2004, the Company’s board of directors adopted the 2004 Employees and Consultants Stock Option Plan (hereafter - the 2004 Stock Option Plan).

 

 

 

 

 

On February 26, 2007, the Company’s board of directors adopted the 2007 Employees and Consultants Stock Option Plan (hereafter - the 2007 Stock Option Plan).

 

 

 

 

 

Under both Plans 10,000,000 shares have been reserved for the grant of options, which may be issued at the discretion of the Company’s board of directors from time to time. Under these Plans, each option is exercisable to purchase one common share of $0.0001 par value of the Company.

 

 

 

 

 

The options may be exercised after vesting and in accordance with vesting schedules which will be determined by the board of directors for each grant.

 

 

 

 

 

The maximum term of the option is 10 years.

 

 

 

 

 

The fair value of each stock option grant was estimated at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. The volatility is based on a historical volatility, by statistical analysis of the weekly share price for past periods. The expected term is the length of time until the expected dates of exercising the options, based on estimated data regarding employees’ exercise behavior.

Stock based compensation (continued)

 

 

 

 

 

Unrecognized compensation as of March 31, 2007 totaled $2,010,516, to be depreciated over the next 47 months.

 

 

 

 

 

Until September 30, 2006, the Company accounted for employees’ share-based payment under the intrinsic value model in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 - “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (“APB 25”) and related interpretations. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 - “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (“FAS 123”), as amended by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure”, the Company disclosed pro forma information, assuming the Company had accounted for employees’ share-based payments using the fair value-based method defined in FAS 123.

 

 

 

 

 

On October 1, 2006, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-based Payment” (“FAS 123(R)”). FAS 123(R) supersedes APB 25 and related interpretations and amends Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 95, “Statement of Cash Flows” (“FAS 95”). FAS 123(R) requires awards classified as equity awards be accounted for using the grant-date fair value method. The fair value of share-based payment transactions is recognized as expense over the requisite service period, net of estimated forfeitures. The Company estimated forfeitures based on historical experience and anticipated future conditions. This Statement is effective as of the beginning of the first annual reporting period that begins after December 15, 2005, for small business issuers, which is October 1, 2006 for the Company.

 

 

 

 

 

In March 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 (“SAB 107”). SAB 107 provides supplemental implementation guidance on FAS 123(R), including guidance on valuation methods, inventory capitalization of share-based compensation cost, income statement effects, disclosures and other issues. SAB 107 requires share-based payment to be classified in the same expense line items as cash compensation. The Company has applied the provisions of SAB 107 in its adoption of FAS 123(R). In addition, the Company has reclassified share-based payment from prior periods to correspond to current period presentation within the same operating expense line items as cash compensation paid to employees.

 

 

 

 

 

The Company elected to recognize compensation cost for an award with only service conditions that has a graded vesting schedule using the accelerated method based on multiple option award approach.

 

 

 

 

 

This Statement applies to all awards granted or modified after the Statement’s effective date. In addition, compensation cost for the unvested portion of previously granted awards that remain outstanding on the Statement’s effective date shall be recognized on or after the effective date, as the related services are rendered, based on the awards’ grant-date fair value as previously calculated for the pro-forma disclosure under FAS 123.

NOTE 1 - GENERAL (continued):

Stock based compensation (continued)

 

 

 

 

 

The Company applied the modified prospective application transition method, as permitted by the Statement. Under such transition method, upon the adoption of FAS 123R, the Company’s financial statements for periods prior to the effective date of the Statement is not restated.

 

 

 

 

 

Costs incurred related to the implementation of FAS 123R for six and three months period ended March 31, 2007 were $672,253 and 360,642, respectively. Costs incurred related to APB 25 for the six and three months period ended March 31, 2006 were $8,730 and $4,365, respectively.

 

 

 

 

 

The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to third party service providers (non-employees) in accordance with the fair value based on an option-pricing model, pursuant to the guidance in EITF 96-18 “Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling Goods or Services”. The fair value of the options granted is revalued over the related service periods and recognized using the accelerated method.

Recently issued accounting pronouncements

 

 

 

 

 

1.

In July 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48 “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - an interpretation of FASB Statement 109” (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 prescribes a comprehensive model for recognizing, measuring and presenting in the financial statements tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. This Interpretation also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties and disclosure requirements for uncertain tax positions. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2006 (October 1, 2007, for the Company). The provisions of FIN 48 shall be applied to all tax positions upon initial adoption of this Interpretation. Only tax positions that meet the more likely than not recognition threshold at the effective date may be recognized or continue to be recognized upon adoption of this Interpretation. The cumulative effects, if any, of applying this Interpretation will be recorded as an adjustment to Retained earnings. The Company is currently assessing this standard effect on its financial statements in future periods.

 

 

 

 

 

 

2.

In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“FAS 157”). FAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. FAS 157 will apply whenever another standard requires (or permits) assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value. The standard does not expand the use of fair value to any new circumstances. FAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years, which is the year beginning October 1, 2008 for the Company.

 

 

 

 

 

 

3.

In February 2007, FASB issued SFAS 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities.” This standard permits companies to choose to measure many financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected are reported in earnings. This statement will be effective for fiscal years beginning on or after November 15, 2007 (October 1, 2008, for the Company). The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of SFAS 159 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

4.

In September 2006, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108, Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements (“SAB No. 108”). SAB No. 108 provides guidance on the consideration of the effects of prior year misstatements in quantifying current year misstatements for the purpose of a materiality assessment. SAB 108 establishes an approach that requires quantification of financial statement errors based on the effects of each of the Company’s balance sheet and statement of operations and the related financial statement disclosures. SAB No. 108 permits existing public companies to record the cumulative effect of initially applying this approach in the first year ending after November 15, 2006 by recording the necessary correcting adjustments to the carrying values of assets and liabilities as of the beginning of that year with the offsetting adjustment recorded to the opening balance of retained earnings. Additionally, the use of the cumulative effect transition method requires detailed disclosure of the nature and amount of each individual error being corrected through the cumulative adjustment and how and when it arose. The Company does not expect this Statement to have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements or its results of operations.

The services to be performed under the Master Services Agreement will be specified in separate work orders, which will set forth the scope of the work, schedule and costs.

12


NOTE 4 – COMITMENTS (continued):

 

 

 

 

 

 

Work order 1 relates to regulatory consulting services to be provided by Biosolutions in connection with the application for an IND with the US FDA for VitiGam. As compensation for the services the Subsidiary will pay BioSolutions a cash fee between $170,000 to $290,000 based on several factors, and the Company will issue to BioSolutions a warrant to purchase 434,783 shares of its common stock at a purchase price of $0.45 per share. The warrant shall vest as follows: 1) 33% upon signature of a definitive agreement with an IVIg manufacturer, 2) 33% upon IND filing and 3) 34% when IND has been approved by the FDA. (See also note 6e).

 

 

 

 

b.

On February 1, 2007 the Subsidiary entered into a Cooperation and Project Funding Agreement with Israel-U.S. Binational Industrial Research and Development (the “BIRD Foundation”) and Life Therapeutics (“Life”), pursuant to which the BIRD Foundation will provide the Subsidiary and Life total funding of the lesser of $1,000,000 or 50% of expenditures on the development of an anti-cancer immunotherapy to treatment for metastatic cancer (“the Project”), as of March 31, 2007 the Subsidiary received $14,837 from the BIRD foundation.

 

 

 

 

 

The Subsidiary and Life are liable, severally and jointly, to repay the funding, in its entirety, to the BIRD Foundation if the development work goes beyond a Phase 2 clinical trial. Such repayment will be due within 12 months following the completion of The Project in an amount equal to the total funding linked to the US Consumer Price Index. The Company’s management estimates that it is probable that the project will go beyond phase 2 clinical trial and thus the funding received by the subsidiary is presented as a liability on the consolidated balance sheet.

 

 

 

NOTE 5 - CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE:

 

 

On November 20, 2006 the Company issued a convertible promissory note, in a principal amount of $350,000, which bears annual interest at 8% payable on maturity of the note and matures on November 20, 2007. At the discretion of the lender, in the event that the Company raises debt or equity financing during the 12 month period following the issuance of the note, the principal and interest due under the note is convertible on the same terms as such financing.

 

 

 

As of the date of issuance the hybrid instrument was bifurcated into an option and a host debt contract. The fair value assigned to the option, determined using Black Scholes option-pricing model was $109,075.

 

 

 

As of the balance sheet date, the fair value allocated to the option estimated by using the Black Scholes option-pricing model is $90,320. The value was based on the following assumptions: dividend yield of 0%; expected volatility of 90%; risk-free interest rates of 5.0%; and expected lives of 0.47 years.

ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF PLAN OF OPERATION

As used in this current report, the terms “we”, “us”, “our”, “the Company” and “GammaCan” mean GammaCan International, Inc. and our subsidiary, GammaCan, Ltd., unless otherwise indicated.

All dollar amounts refer to US dollars unless otherwise indicated.

We are a development stage Company and currently have no revenue from operations. Other than existing cash reserves and our intellectual property we have no significant assets, tangible or intangible. Presently, the Company does not have sufficient cash resources to meet its requirements in the twelve months following April 1, 2007 and we expect to seek to raise additional funds during that time period. There can be no assurance that we will generate revenues in the future, or that we will be able to operate profitably in the future, if at all. We have incurred net losses in each fiscal year since inception of our operations.

Plan of Operation

Short Term Business Plan

We are a life science company focused on the development of immunotherapy and related approaches to treat cancer. To date, we have focused on the use of intravenous immunoglobulin, or IgG, derived from human plasma provided by healthy donors to treat melanoma, prostate, and colon cancers. We believe that IgG may be the basis of more effective and efficient cancer treatment both, as mono- or combination therapy and adjuvant cancer treatments. Our business objective is to become a recognized leader in the development of immunotherapy and related approaches to treat cancer

IgG immunotherapy will require regulatory approval before being commercially marketed for human therapeutic use. Clinical trials generally include three phases that together may take several years to complete. Phase I clinical studies (toxicity trials) are primarily conducted to establish the safety and determine the maximally tolerated dose, or MTD. Phase II studies are designed to determine preliminary efficacy and establish dosing. Phase III studies are conducted to demonstrate therapeutic efficacy in a statistically significant manner at the levels of optimal dose, method or route of delivery into the body, and the schedule of administration. Once clinical trials are completed successfully, products may receive regulatory approval.

Our lead product candidate, VitiGam™, is an anti-cancer immunotherapy derived entirely from the plasma of donors with vitiligo, a benign autoimmune skin condition affecting up to 2% of the general population. We are initially utilizing VitiGam™ to target melanoma. We have demonstrated that plasma from individuals with vitiligo contains anti-melanoma activities, and we are attempting to develop VitiGam™ for the treatment of Stage III and Stage IV melanoma. The incidence of melanoma, continues to increase and has experienced little if any therapeutic progress in the last ten years. In addition to VitiGam™, we are developing and will continue to develop the following:

 

 

 

 

Adjuvant therapies - IgG-based adjuvant therapies to modulate both the proliferation of cancer cells and the metastasis of tumor cells.

18


 

 

 

 

Next generation (recombinant) VitiGam™ - VitiGam™ is currently manufactured as a mixture that largely consists of IgG molecules (antibodies of the IgG type). We anticipate that within that mixture, only a subset of IgG molecules will be responsible for the biological activity of VitiGam™. “Next generation” VitiGam™ will be composed of only the IgGs required to exert the anti-melanoma effect, thereby creating a more effective compound. Identifying the relevant IgGs will also allow cost reductions.

 

 

 

 

Cancer Vaccines Based on VitiGam™ - An “off-the-shelf” cancer vaccine is considered a “silver bullet” in cancer therapy. We anticipate that based on our evolving understanding of the mechanism associated with VitiGam™, we may be in a position to develop such a vaccine in the future.

We have embarked on a non-FDA Phase II clinical trial to test the safety and efficacy of “standard” (e.g., collected and manufactured from healthy donors) IgG in patients with three types of late stage malignancies that have failed to respond to all other standard therapies as well as certain experimental therapies The cancers evaluated in the non-FDA, open-label Phase II trial were: melanoma, prostate, and colon cancer. Patients in the study receive standard IgG at a consistent dose every 28 days (a cycle). Patients were evaluated by standard criteria for tumor progression and other markers after three cycles, and if stable or improved, such treatment continues for three additional cycles. We expect the study to close by mid-year 2007. Results from melanoma patients are promising and can be summarized as follows:

 

 

 

 

no serious untoward effects of IgG were noted; and

 

 

 

 

one patient with melanoma (out of 8) and one with prostate cancer (out of 9) have been stable or improved at six cycles of therapy or beyond. Indeed, the melanoma patient has completed twelve cycles, after which tumor progression was noted.

In addition to the body of pre-clinical evidence accumulated using vitiligo derived plasma or IgG, observations with melanoma patients in this study provide a clinical foundation for the current plan to develop VitiGam™.

We plan to file an Investigational New Drug Application, or IND, for VitiGam™ in late 2007 with the United States Food and Drug Aministration (the “FDA”). We believe that the FDA is well acquainted with IgG-based therapies and their non-toxic characteristics from a long history of approvals of products based on plasma.

We are also contemplating conducting additional clinical trials to test new formulations and/or combinations of IgG-based immunotherapy candidates and to test these formulations and/or methods for different cancers at different stages of disease progression with varying dosages and routes of administration. To achieve this we may elect to partner with a pharmaceutical company to conduct these further clinical trials, although there can be no assurance that we will locate a pharmaceutical company able, or willing, to partner with us on terms commercially acceptable to us, in order to attain broad-based regulatory approval.

Although there can be no assurance that the FDA will approve VitiGam™, or any other IgG immunotherapy candidate, we expect that, at a minimum, it will take a number of years to receive final approval and registration of such IgG candidate for commercial use as an anti-cancer agent.

19


Our strategy is to collaborate with a suitable partner, although there can be no assurance that we will locate a suitable partner, to support late stage (Phase III) clinical development, registration and/or sales for our IgG-based cancer products.

Long Term Business Strategy

If our IgG-based cancer immunotherapy candidates show significant promise through clinical trials, and at this preliminary stage there can be no assurance that any such immunotherapy candidates will show significant promise, we plan to ultimately seek a strategic commercial partner, or partners, with extensive experience in the development, commercialization, and marketing of cancer drugs and/ or other infused therapeutic proteins, although there can be no assurance that we will locate a strategic commercial partner or partners on terms commercially acceptable to us. We anticipate such partner, or partners, would be responsible for, or substantially support, late stage clinical trials (Phase III) to ensure regulatory approvals and registrations in the appropriate territories in a timely manner. We further anticipate that the partner, or partners, would be responsible for sales and marketing of our IgG-based immunotherapies in certain agreed upon territories. Such planned strategic partnership, or partnerships, may provide a marketing and sales infrastructure for our products as well as financial and operational support for global clinical trials, post marketing studies, label expansions and other regulatory requirements concerning future clinical development in the United States and elsewhere. Any future strategic partner, or partners, may also provide capital and expertise that would enable the partnership to develop new formulations of IgG cancer immunotherapy suitable for patients at different stages of disease progression as well as IgG derivatives. Under certain circumstances, we may determine to develop one or more of our IgG based cancer immunotherapies on our own, either world-wide or in select territories.

Other Research and Development Plans

In addition to conducting early-stage clinical trials, we plan to conduct pre-clinical research to accomplish the following:

 

 

 

 

further deepen and broaden our understanding of the biology of our IgG products in cancer;

 

 

 

 

develop alternative delivery systems, determine the optimal dosage for different patient groups;

 

 

 

 

investigate alternative sources of immunoglobulin other than human plasma;

 

 

 

 

develop novel IgG-based therapies; and

 

 

 

 

develop successor products to our current products.

For example, we plan to conduct research to isolate the fraction of IgG, which is responsible for its anti-metastatic effects and to develop a potential synthetic version of IgG. These formulations may be suitable for:

 

 

 

 

high dose, for use in conjunction with surgery and other cancer treatments; and

 

 

 

 

maintenance dose for use to prevent recurrence of cancer growth.

20


Our plan is to patent any successful inventions resulting from our future research activities and to exploit any other means that may exist to protect our future IgG anti-cancer therapies in the commercial markets; although at this early stage there can be no assurance that there will be any successful inventions resulting from such research activities. For example, we may seek Orphan Drug Status for future IgG-based anti-cancer therapies for certain indications in certain markets.

Other Strategic Plans

In addition to developing our own IgG based anti-cancer therapies drug portfolio, we are considering in-licensing and other means of obtaining additional lead molecules of technologies to complement and/or expand our current product portfolio. Our goal is to create a well-balanced product portfolio including lead molecules in different stages of development and addressing different medical needs.

Critical accounting policies and estimates

Management’s discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations is based upon the consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments. We base our estimates on various factors, including historical experience that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other resources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

We believe the following critical accounting policies affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.

Going concern assumption

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has net losses for the period from inception (October 6, 1998) through March 31, 2007 of $5,898,268, as well as negative cash flow from operating activities. Presently, the Company does not have sufficient cash resources to meet its requirements in the twelve months following April 1, 2007. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s management estimates that it will be able to finance the Company’s activities through future fund raising.

The financial statements do not include any adjustments that may be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent on its ability to obtain additional financings as may be required and ultimately to attain profitability.

Valuation of options and warrants

The Company granted options to purchase common shares of the Company to employees and consultants and issued warrants in connection with fund raising.

21


Until September 30, 2006 the Company accounted for employee stock based compensation in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (“APB 25”) and related interpretations. In accordance with FAS 123 - “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (“FAS 123”), the Company disclosed pro forma data assuming the Company had accounted for employee stock option grants using the fair value-based method defined in FAS 123.

On October 1, 2006 the Company adopted the revised Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“FAS”) No. 123, Share-Based Payment (FAS 123R), which addresses the accounting for share-based payment transactions in which the Company obtains employee services in exchange for (a) equity instruments of the Company or (b) liabilities that are based on the fair value of the Company’s equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of such equity instruments. FAS 123R eliminates the ability to account for employee share-based payment transactions using APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and requires instead that such transactions be accounted for using the grant-date fair value based method. This Statement is effective as of the beginning of the first annual reporting period that begins after December 15, 2005, for small business issuers, which is October 1, 2006 for the Company.

FASB 123R applies to all awards granted or modified after the Statement’s effective date. In addition, compensation cost for the unvested portion of previously granted awards that remain outstanding on the Statement’s effective date shall be recognized on or after the effective date, as the related services are rendered, based on the awards’ grant-date fair value as previously calculated for the pro-forma disclosure under FAS 123.

The Company applied the modified prospective application transition method, as permitted by the Statement. Under such transition method, upon the adoption of FAS 123R, the Company’s financial statements for periods prior to the effective date of the Statement is not restated.

The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to third party service providers (non-employees) in accordance with the fair value based on an option-pricing model, pursuant to the guidance in EITF 96-18 “Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling Goods or Services”. The fair value of the options granted is revalued over the related service periods and recognized using the accelerated method.

Deferred income taxes

Deferred taxes are determined utilizing the assets and liabilities method based on the estimated future tax effects of differences between the financial accounting and tax bases of assets and liabilities under the applicable tax laws. Deferred tax balances are computed using the tax rates expected to be in effect when those differences reverse. A valuation allowance in respect of deferred tax assets is provided if, based upon the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company has provided a full valuation allowance with respect to its deferred tax assets.

Regarding the Israeli subsidiary, paragraph 9(f) of FAS 109,”Accounting for Income Taxes”, prohibits the recognition of deferred tax liabilities or assets that arise from differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities that are measured from the local currency into dollars using historical exchange rates, and that result from changes in exchange rates or indexing for tax purposes. Consequently, the above mentioned differences were not reflected in the computation of deferred tax assets and liabilities.
