INTEGRITY APPLICATIONS, INC.
NOTE 1 – GENERAL
A. |
Integrity Applications, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated on May 18, 2010 under the laws of the State of Delaware. On July 15, 2010, Integrity Acquisition Corp. Ltd. (hereinafter: “Integrity Acquisition”), a wholly owned Israeli subsidiary of the Company, which was established on May 23, 2010, completed a merger with A.D. Integrity Applications Ltd. (hereinafter: “Integrity Israel”), an Israeli corporation. Pursuant to the merger, all equity holders of Integrity Israel received the same proportional ownership in the Company as they had in Integrity Israel prior to the merger. Following the merger, Integrity Israel remained a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. As the merger transaction constituted a structural reorganization, the merger has been accounted for at historical cost in a manner similar to a pooling of interests. Integrity Israel was incorporated in 2001 and commenced its operations in 2002. Integrity Israel, a medical device company, focuses on the design, development and commercialization of non-invasive glucose monitoring devices for use by people with diabetes and pre-diabetes.
|
B. |
Going concern uncertainty
|
Since its incorporation, the Company did not conduct any material operations other than those carried out by Integrity Israel. The development and commercialization of Integrity Israel’s product is expected to require substantial expenditures. Integrity Israel and the Company (collectively, the “Group”) have not yet generated significant revenues from operations, and therefore they are dependent upon external sources for financing their operations. As of September 30, 2017, the Group has incurred an accumulated deficit of $44,275,592, a stockholder’s deficit of $14,843,699 and negative operating cash flows. Management considered the significance of such conditions in relation to the Group’s ability to meet its current and future obligations and determined that these conditions raise substantial doubt about the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. To fund its operations the Company has raised funds through the issuance of its equities, which include the offering of (a) Series A Units, consisting of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and Series A Warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s Common Stock; (b) Series B Units, consisting of shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, Series B-1 Warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock, and Series B-2 Warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock; and (c) Series C Units, consisting of shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock, Series C-1 Warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock, and Series C-2 Warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock.
Until such time as the Group generates sufficient revenue to fund its operations (if ever), the Group plans to finance its operations through the sale of equity or equity-linked securities and/or debt securities and, to the extent available, short term and long-term loans. There can be no assurance that the Group will succeed in obtaining the necessary financing to continue its operations as a going concern.
C. |
Risk factors
|
As described in Note 1A and Note 1B above, the Group has a limited operating history and faces a number of risks and uncertainties, including risks and uncertainties regarding continuation of the development process, demand and market acceptance of the Group’s products, the effects of technological changes, competition and the development of products by competitors. Additionally, other risk factors also exist, such as the ability to manage growth and the effect of planned expansion of operations on the Group’s future results and the availability of necessary financing. In addition, the Group expects to continue incurring significant operating costs and losses in connection with the development of its products and marketing efforts. The Group has not yet generated material revenues from its operations to fund its activities and therefore is dependent on the receipt of additional funding from its stockholders and/ or new investors in order to continue its operations.

NOTE 1 – GENERAL (cont.)
D. |
Use of estimates in the preparation of financial statements
|
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. As applicable to these consolidated financial statements, the most significant estimates and assumptions relate to (i) the fair value estimate of the Warrants with down-round protection, (ii) the allocation of the proceeds and the related issuance costs of the Series C Units, and (iii) the going concern assumptions.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A. |
Basis of presentation
|
Accounting Principles
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) related to interim financial statements. As permitted under those rules, certain information and footnote disclosures normally required or included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted. The financial information contained herein is unaudited; however, management believes all adjustments have been made that are considered necessary to present fairly the results of the Company’s financial position and operating results for the interim periods. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.
The results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2017 or for any other interim period or for any future period.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiary. Significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
B. |
Warrants with down-round protection
|
The Company has determined its derivative warrant liability with respect to the remaining Series A Warrants and warrants issued to Andrew Garrett, Inc., (“AGI”) as part of the Series A Unit offering, the Series B Unit offering and the Series C Unit offering to be a Level 3 fair value measurement and has used the Binomial trees pricing model to calculate its fair value. Because the warrants contain a down round protection feature, the probability that the exercise price of the warrants would decrease as the stock price decreased was incorporated into the valuation calculations.

Accounting Standards Update 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”
|
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASU 2014-09”).
ASU 2014-09 outlines a single comprehensive model to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. ASU 2014-09 also requires entities to disclose sufficient information, both quantitative and qualitative, to enable users of financial statements to understand the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers.
An entity should apply the amendments in ASU 2014-09 using one of the following two methods: 1. Retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented with a possibility to elect certain practical expedients, or, 2. Retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying ASU 2014-09 recognized at the date of initial application. If an entity elects the latter transition method, it also should provide certain additional disclosures.
During 2016, the FASB issued several Accounting Standards Updates (“ASUs”) that focus on certain implementation issues of the new revenue recognition guidance including Narrow-Scope Improvements, Practical Expedients and technical corrections.
In accordance with an amendment to ASU 2014-09, introduced by Accounting Standard 2015-14, “Revenue from contracts with Customers – Deferral of the Effective Date”, for a public entity, the amendments in ASU 2014-09 are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period (the first quarter of fiscal year 2018 for the Company). Earlier application is permitted only as of annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period.
The Company intends to adopt ASU 2014-09 as of January 1, 2018.
The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of ASU 2014-09 on its revenue streams and selling contracts, if any, and on its financial reporting and disclosures. Management is expecting to complete the evaluation of the impact of the accounting and disclosure changes on the business processes, controls and systems during 2017.
Since the company did not report significant revenues, management believes that the adoption of ASU 2014-09 will not have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Accounting Standards Update 2015-11, “Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory”
|
Effective January 1, 2017, the Group adopted ASU No. 2015-11, Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory (Topic 330) (“ASU 2015- 11”).
ASU 2015-11 outlines that inventory within the scope of its guidance be measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Inventory measured using last-in, first-out (LIFO) and the retail inventory method (RIM) are not impacted by the new guidance. Prior to the issuance of ASU 2015-11, inventory was measured at the lower of cost or market (where market was defined as replacement cost, with a ceiling of net realizable value and floor of net realizable value less a normal profit margin).
The adoption of ASU 2015-11 did not have a significant effect on the consolidated financial statements.

Accounting Standard Update (ASU) No. 2017-11, “Earnings Per Share”
|
In July 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-11, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260); Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480); Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): (Part I) Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Down Round Features, (Part II) Replacement of the Indefinite Deferral for Mandatorily Redeemable Financial Instruments of Certain Nonpublic Entities and Certain Mandatorily Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests with a Scope Exception (“ASU 2017-11”).
Among others, Part I of ASU 2017-11 simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with down round features, which is a provision in an equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded feature) that provides a downward adjustment of the current exercise price based on the price of future equity offerings. Current accounting guidance creates cost and complexity for organizations that issue financial instruments with down round features by requiring, on an ongoing basis, fair value measurement of the entire instrument or conversion option.
ASU 2017-11 require companies to disregard the down round feature when assessing whether the instrument is indexed to its own stock, for purposes of determining liability or equity classification. Companies that provide earnings per share (EPS) data will adjust their basic EPS calculation for the effect of the feature when triggered (i.e., when the exercise price of the related equity-linked financial instrument is adjusted downward because of the down round feature) and will also recognize the effect of the trigger within equity.
ASU 2017-11 also addresses navigational concerns within the FASB Accounting Standards Codification related to an indefinite deferral available to private companies.
The provisions of the new ASU related to down rounds are effective for public business entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018 (fiscal 2019 for the Company). Early adoption is permitted for all entities.
The Company is evaluating the impact of ASU 2017-11 on its financial statements. Although this process has not been completed, managements believes that its provisions might impact the accounting of the financial instruments issued by the Company that include down-round protection.

Based on the terms of the purchase agreements relating to the issuance and sale of the Series A Units and the Series B Units, respectively, so long as any initial purchaser of Series A Units or Series B Units, as applicable, holds any shares of Series A Preferred Stock or Series B Preferred Stock, respectively, if (a) the Company sells any shares of Common Stock or other securities convertible into, or rights to acquire, Common Stock and (b) a purchaser then holding Series A or Series B Preferred Stock or Warrants reasonably believes that any of the terms and conditions appurtenant to such issuance or sale are more favorable to the purchaser in such subsequent sale of securities than are the terms and conditions granted to such purchaser, then the purchaser will be permitted to require the Company to amend the terms of this transaction (only with respect to such purchaser) so as to match the terms of the subsequent issuance (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any terms and provisions that are or may be less favorable to such purchaser).

Pursuant to the purchase agreements relating to the issuance and sale of the Series A Units and the Series B Units, the Company was required to and did notify the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock of the closing of the sale of the Series C Units, and following receipt thereof such holders of Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock will be entitled, pursuant to the “most favored nation” provisions contained in their respective purchase agreements (as described above), to elect to amend the terms of their purchase of Series A Units and Series B Units, respectively, to match the terms of the Series C Units. The Company is obligated to amend the terms of any of Series A Units or Series B Units who timely makes such election and tenders its Series A Units or Series B Units for exchange.
As of September 30, 2017, none of the remaining Series A or B Unit holders asked the company to amend the terms of their Units to series c units.
Upon their initial recognition, the Series C Preferred (classified as temporary equity) and the detachable Series C Warrants (classified as equity) were measured based on the relative fair value basis and were presented net of the direct issuance expenses that were allocated to them.
The Company has determined that, due to the economic characteristics and risks of the Series C Preferred Stock, based on their stated or implied substantive terms and features, such Preferred Stock are considered as more akin to equity than debt. Accordingly, it was determined that the economic characteristics and the risks of the embedded conversion option to Common Stock and those of the Series C Preferred Stock themselves (the ‘host contract’) are clearly and closely related. As a result, the embedded conversion feature was not required to be bifurcated.
Since at each of the issuances dates of the Series C Preferred Stock the exercise price of the conversion feature (based on the effective conversion rate of the Series C Preferred Stock into Common Stock) was higher than the estimated fair value of the Company’s Common Stock, it was determined that given the current market price, conversion at the conversion price was not a beneficial transaction. Also, due to the liquidation preference and certain redemption rights for the benefit of the holders of the Series C Preferred Stock, upon the occurrence of certain contingent events, which are not considered as solely within the Company’s control management determined that the Series C Preferred Stock were to be presented as temporary equity. On each balance sheet date, the Company’s management assesses the probability of redemption of the outstanding Preferred Stock. In the event that management determines such redemption to be probable as of an applicable balance sheet date, the Company will reclassify the amount allocated to the preferred stock from temporary equity to liability. In addition, upon such determination, the difference between the amount that was allocated to the Preferred Stock (after deduction of issuance expenses) and the aggregate redemption amount of the Preferred Stock will be accreted over the period beginning on the date that it becomes probable that the instrument will become redeemable and ending on the earliest redemption date.

In September 2017, the Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors approved an increase of Sami Sassoun (C.F.O) and Eugene Naidis’s (VP R&D) base salaries to NIS 47,250 per month (approximately US$161,513 annually) and NIS 43,200 (US$147,660 annually), respectively, which shall only start to take effect after the Company has completed the next round of financing and has sufficient funds to finance operations. The Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors also approved certain on-target performance bonus at 35% of Mr. Sassoun and Mr. Naidis’s respective annual base salary and grant of stock options (pursuant to the Company’s 2010 Incentive Compensation Plan, as amended) equating to 1% of the fully diluted number of shares of the Company after the closing of the offering of Series C Units, with a strike price of US$4.50, with three-year monthly vesting commencing on the first month after the effective date.

Overview
Integrity is a medical device company focused on the design, development and commercialization of non‑invasive glucose monitoring devices for use by people with diabetes and pre-diabetics. Integrity Israel was founded in 2001 with a mission to develop, produce and market non-invasive glucose monitors for home use by diabetics. We have developed a non-invasive glucose monitor, the GlucoTrack® model DF-F glucose monitoring device, which is designed to help people with diabetes and individuals with pre-diabetics obtain glucose level readings without the pain, inconvenience, cost and difficulty of conventional (invasive) spot finger stick devices. The GlucoTrack® model DF-F utilizes a patented combination of ultrasound, electromagnetic and thermal technologies to obtain glucose measurements in less than one minute via a small sensor that is clipped onto one’s earlobe and connected to a small, handheld control and display unit, all without drawing blood or interstitial fluid.
In June 2013, we received initial CE Mark (marking the Company’s declaration that the product meets the requirements of the applicable European Union directives) approval for the GlucoTrack® model DF-F non-invasive glucose monitoring device from DEKRA Certification B.V., our European notified body (the “Notified Body”). This original approval required that the device be re-calibrated every 30 days, with each such re- calibration taking between 2.5 and 3 hours to complete. In March 2014, we received CE Mark approval for six months’ calibration validity of the same device. This approval eliminates the need for monthly re-calibrations, and enables the calibration process to be conducted only when the sensor is replaced, once every 6 months. We believe that this is a significant feature of the GlucoTrack® model DF-F. Receipt of the CE Mark allows us to market and sell the GlucoTrack® model DF-F glucose monitoring device in European Union (“EU”) member countries that have adopted the European Medical Device Directive (the “MDD”) without being subject to additional national regulations with regard to demonstration of performance and safety. However, although the MDD is applicable throughout the EU, in practice it does not ensure uniform regulation throughout the EU. Accordingly, member countries may apply and enforce the MDD’s terms differently, and certain EU member countries may request or require performance and/or safety data in addition to the MDD’s requirements from time to time, on a case-by-case basis. The CE Mark also permits the sale in countries that have an MDD Mutual Recognition Agreement with the EU.
20
On August 31, 2015, we received approval from the Notified Body for improvements to the GlucoTrack® model DF-F to simplify and shorten (from approximately 2.5 hours to approximately half an hour) the initial calibration process for the device. These improvements are intended to reduce the backlog created as purchasers of the device await calibration. In addition, we received approval from the Notified Body on the updated intended use for the device, which expands the intended user population to include not only Type 2 diabetics, but also people suffering from pre-diabetes conditions as well, which we believe represents a material expansion of the potential market for the device. In December 2015, we received approval from the Notified Body for further improvements to the GlucoTrack® model DF-F that increase the accuracy and efficacy of the device. On February 19, 2016, we received an extension of our ISO 13485:2003 certificate and Annex II certification from the EU. The ISO 13485:2003 certification signifies that we have met the standards required for company-wide implementation of device quality management system(s). The scope of the certification is design, development, manufacture and service of non-invasive glucose monitoring systems for home use. Annex II also addresses quality control systems. The certification allows us to self-certify certain modifications and changes and simplifies some of the reporting to and review by the relevant Notified Body. This can shorten the CE-mark review process of future GlucoTrack® model DF-F enhancements or revisions, including software updates and other improvements of the device that do not affect the intended use and/or safety performance. Without an Annex II certification, each new device enhancement or modified version would be subject to the full EU CE-mark review process. The ISO 13485:2003 and Annex II certifications enable us to potentially reduce the time to market for product sales on new, enhanced or modified GlucoTrack® model DF-F devices.
The GlucoTrack® model DF-F has not yet been approved for commercial sale in the United States. On August 10, 2015, we submitted pre-submission documents to the FDA in connection with our proposed future application for FDA approval of our U.S. clinical trial protocol. The pre‑submission documentation was submitted to the FDA in order to obtain the FDA’s guidance regarding the U.S. regulatory pathway for the GlucoTrack® model DF-F, the proper approach to refining the trial protocol and preparing the pre-marketing application. On October 19, 2015, we met with the FDA to discuss the pre-submission documents, including the approach to and details of the clinical trial protocol for the GlucoTrack® model DF-F. On May 10, 2016, we submitted a pre-submission supplement (including clinical trial protocol) to the FDA which reflects the feedback received from the FDA at our October 2015 meeting. On July 18, 2016, we completed a teleconference with the FDA to further discuss our pre-submission supplement. At the end of this discussion, we received verbal confirmation from the FDA that clinical trials of the GlucoTrack® model DF-F constitute non‑significant risk device studies, which allows the trials to proceed without an Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) application. Such trials are assessed by the FDA and not considered to present a potential for serious risk to the health, safety or the welfare of subjects. We have identified and are currently negotiating agreements with two diabetes and endocrinology institutions in the United States, as well as prominent endocrinologists to conduct the clinical trials as primary investigators. Subject to finalizing these agreements and raising adequate financing to do so, we expect to begin clinical trials in the United States in the second half of 2018.
We are continuing to work to improve certain features of the GlucoTrack® model DF-F, such as further simplifying the calibration process and improving the accuracy of the device. Clinical trials conducted in Germany by Pfutzner Science & Health Institute, GmbH, headed by Prof. Dr. Andreas Pfutzner, on subjects with Type 2 diabetes and pre-diabetics, as well as at Soroka University Medical Center, Beer-Sheva, Israel, demonstrated favorable results, which were presented on November 10, 2016 by the Company at the 16th annual Diabetes Technology Meeting (DTM), Bethesda, MD in an invited presentation. Most notably, the presentation included data validating that GlucoTrack’s accuracy has increased significantly. Results from the trials show 99.7% of the study data points within the clinically accepted A and B zones of the Consensus Error Grid (Type 2), 99.3% of the study data points were within the clinically accepted A and B zones of the Clarke Error Grid, 17.0% Mean Absolute Relative Difference, and 12.9% Median Absolute Relative Difference. In addition, the German trial concluded that the data confirms the performance of the GlucoTrack® among its intended users, including pre-diabetic patients.
In addition, we are developing a wireless module (“WLM”) with embedded Bluetooth Low-Energy (BLE) and Wi-Fi technologies, which we expect will enable transmission of measurement data captured by the GlucoTrack® model DF-F to a cloud based server. We expect this module and the related applications, if successfully developed, to facilitate sharing, viewing and analysis of GlucoTrack® model DF-F glucose measurements and profile by clinicians and others.
21
Since receiving CE Mark approval for our GlucoTrack® model DF-F glucose monitoring device, we have expanded our primary focus to include, in addition to research and development activities, preparation for anticipated future mass-production and distribution of the GlucoTrack® model DF-F in EU member countries and other countries that have an MDD Mutual Recognition Agreement with the EU, as well as other countries which consider the CE Mark as a reference for their regulatory or registration requirements. We have entered into exclusive distribution agreements with more than 15 distributors, and we are continuing negotiations with distributors in additional territories. The effectiveness of these agreements, in many cases, is subject to the receipt of local regulatory approval or registration, if required, for the commencement of sales of the GlucoTrack® model DF-F in the subject territory. We cannot provide any assurance that we will receive the required local regulatory approvals in any of the countries in which such approvals are required, and therefore we may never be permitted to commence commercial sales of our products in such territories. Additional discussions with other potential distributors are also in progress. Among other jurisdictions, we are in the process of seeking regulatory approval for the GlucoTrack® model DF-F in China where we are in the process of re-negotiating our distribution agreement and are awaiting local regulatory approval. In the event that our re-negotiation with the distributor in China is successful, we expect to receive the regulatory approval in China in the first half of 2018. If the renegotiation is unsuccessful, we plan to seek another distributor in China which may further significantly delay the process of obtaining regulatory approval in China. We currently are not seeking regulatory approval in Japan. We may also seek regulatory approval to market the GlucoTrack® devices in other foreign countries that do not rely on the CE Mark. To the extent that we seek to market our devices in other non-CE Mark countries in the future, we will be required to comply with the applicable regulatory requirements in each such country. Such regulatory requirements vary by country and may be onerous. As a result, no assurance can be given that we will be able to satisfy the regulatory requirements to sell our products in any such country.
On May 4, 2016 we received regulatory approval from the Korean Ministry of Food and Drug Safety (KMFDS, formerly KFDA) for the GlucoTrack® model DF-F. In October 2016, we received the final approval from South Korea, which enables us to commence sales of the GlucoTrack® model DF-F in South Korea. Following the official approval, our local distributor placed an initial order for 100 units of GlucoTrack® model DF‑F, which were fully paid for and delivered during the fourth quarter of 2016. In South Korea, the GlucoTrack® device is sold with 2 personal ear-clips (“PECs”), so the consumer does not need to incur further expenses to use the device in the first year. This marketing model may be adopted by other distributors as well.
The territories covered by our signed distribution agreements currently represent a potential market opportunity of up to approximately 141 million diagnosed diabetics (inclusive of both Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes patients). This represents approximately 34% of the potential worldwide market of approximately 414 million people, based on estimates included in the International Diabetes Federation’s (IDF) Diabetes Atlas, 7th edition, 2015. Of these territories, the territories in which the GlucoTrack® model DF-F has been approved for sale currently represent a potential market opportunity of up to approximately 23 million diagnosed diabetics (inclusive of both Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes patients), or 5.6% of the potential worldwide market. While we do not have reliable statistics that bifurcate the market opportunity among Type 1 and Type 2 diabetics, we believe that on average approximately 87% of all people suffering from diabetes have Type 2 diabetes. Apart from the diagnosed patients, approximately 192 million people are estimated to suffer from diabetes that has not yet been diagnosed. Based on estimates included in the International Diabetes Federation’s (IDF) Diabetes Atlas, 7th edition, 2015, the market opportunity for undiagnosed diabetics is 71 million people in the territories covered by our signed distribution agreements, of which 11 million people are in the territories in which the GlucoTrack® model DF-F has been approved for sale. Based on the IDF Diabetes Atlas, 7th edition, 2015, the world prevalence of pre-diabetics was 6.4% of the worldwide population, while the prevalence of diagnosed people with diabetes was 7.7%.
We do not own commercial manufacturing facilities and do not intend to build commercial manufacturing facilities of our own in the foreseeable future. We currently utilize a third-party manufacturer in Israel to manufacture the GlucoTrack® model DF-F. In July 2014, we entered into a manufacturing agreement with Wistron Corp. (“Wistron”), a Taiwanese entity and the manufacturing arm of Acer Inc. Pursuant to such agreement, Wistron has agreed to mass produce and service, on a non-exclusive basis, the GlucoTrack® model DF-F and any future products, if any, introduced by us. Pursuant to such agreement, Wistron has also agreed to provide full turn-key manufacturing services for the GlucoTrack® model DF- F, including components procurement, unit assembly, device integration, testing, packaging and delivery to customers (distributors). In November 2015, we sent a delegation to Wistron’s main production facility in Taiwan to, among other things, inspect the readiness of Wistron’s production line for the GlucoTrack® model DF-F. Wistron has produced a small pilot batch and recently produced a second pilot batch of the GlucoTrack® model DF-F device. A GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) audit by the local regulatory authorities in Taiwan was conducted in September 2016 and successfully completed. The production line for the GlucoTrack® model DF-F is now ready and we expect to receive an official clearance from the Taiwanese authorities shortly. We intend to utilize the services of both Wistron and the Israeli third-party manufacturer to produce the GlucoTrack® model DF-F.
22
In support of the commercialization effort, we intend to conduct further post-market clinical trials, as well as publish scientific and clinical studies, case studies, and white papers. To that end, we have engaged with a leading clinic in Germany, Pfutzner Science & Health Institute, GmbH, headed by Prof. Dr. Andreas Pfutzner, to conduct additional clinical trials on subjects with Type 2 diabetes and pre-diabetics. We are in negotiations with another site in Israel and anticipate adding additional sites in Europe.
The Company is also seeking and is already engaged in discussions with potential strategic partners, to assist in expanding the Company’s presence and penetration in various markets throughout the world. In connection with the foregoing, we have approached certain leading companies in the field of diabetes and glucose monitoring, as well as other relevant companies that may have an interest in expanding their fields of interest. We cannot guarantee that such activities will conclude in positive results to the Company, if any.
In addition to the improvements to the GlucoTrack® model DF-F described previously, we have also continued to work on additional incremental improvements to the device and the development of new devices and, subject to our raising sufficient funds to do so, intend to continue these efforts throughout 2017.
As part of our commercialization activities, in September 2016, we had a booth at the EASD (European Association for Study of Diabetes) 52nd annual conference in Munich.
In December 2016, we had a poster at the 9th Annual World Congress on Prevention of Diabetes and its Complications (WCPD, Atlanta, GA). This Congress provided the Company with an opportunity to showcase GlucoTrack® model DF-F as a tool to fight diabetes and its complications, as well as using GlucoTrack® model DF-F as a tool to assist pre-diabetics.
In February 2017, the Company presented at the 10th International Conference on Advanced Technologies & Treatments for Diabetes (ATTD 2017) in Paris, France. The Company presented key findings including (1) the latest generation GlucoTrack® algorithm, which compensates for the tissue-lagging effect relative to blood glucose changes post-meal intake, significantly improves GlucoTrack® accuracy at different post-prandial (post- meal) states, and equalizes accuracy for pre- and post-meal glucose readings; (2) GlucoTrack® clinical accuracy as measured by Consensus Error Grid (CEG) showed 100% of the pre-prandial readings in the A+B zones, and 98.2% of the post-prandial readings in the A+B zones; (3) GlucoTrack® Model DF-F demonstrates consistent glucose measurement repeatability between different GlucoTrack® devices and on each earlobe of the same subject; (4) the repeatability of different GlucoTrack® devices is similar at all tested glucose ranges and post-prandial time periods; and (5) the GlucoTrack® mean precision absolute relative difference (PARD) of 8.2% is equivalent or better than the independently reported PARD values of commercially available continuous glucose monitoring systems.
On June 12, 2017, we announced new data demonstrating the clinical performance of GlucoTrack®, further supporting its suitability for people with type 2 diabetes across various medication regimes. The data was recently presented at the American Diabetes Association’s (ADA) 77th Scientific Sessions in San Diego, CA.
The study evaluated GlucoTrack’s accuracy in 172 adults with type 2 diabetes who were prescribed one or more medications for major medical conditions associated with diabetes. The experiment stratified participants into five medication groups, focusing on anti-cholesterolemia, anti-hypertension, anti-thrombotic, and anti-diabetic (prolonged duration and short and mixed duration) medications.
23
We were incorporated in Delaware in May 2010. On July 15, 2010, we completed a reverse triangular merger with Integrity Israel and Integrity Acquisition Corp. Ltd., an Israeli corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of ours, pursuant to which Integrity Acquisition Corp. Ltd. merged with and into Integrity Israel and all of the stockholders and option holders of Integrity Israel became entitled to receive shares and options in us in exchange for their shares and options in Integrity Israel (the “Reorganization”). Following the Reorganization, the former equity holders of Integrity Israel were entitled to the same proportional ownership in us as they had in Integrity Israel prior to the Reorganization. As a result of the Reorganization, Integrity Israel became a wholly owned subsidiary of ours. We operate primarily through Integrity Israel.
Our principal offices are located at 19 Ha’Yahalomim St., Ashdod, Israel 7760049 and our telephone number is 972-8-675-7878. Our website address is http://www.integrity-app.com; the reference to such website address does not constitute incorporation by reference of the information contained on the website and such information should not be considered part of this report. There is no relationship between us and Integrity Applications, Incorporated, the engineering and software services company based in Chantilly, Virginia.
We have six members on our Board, four of whom are independent. The Board of Directors has an Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, each consisting solely of independent directors. We are continuing to consider expansion of the Board of Directors and the establishment of additional appropriate Board of Directors committees to support the Company.
During 2016 we expanded our advisory board to include renowned key opinion leaders, in order to support the Company’s global clinical, regulatory and commercialization efforts. The advisory board now comprises seven experts: Prof. Dr. Lutz Heinemann (Chairman): CEO, Science & Co, Düsseldorf, Germany; Prof. Irl B. Hirsch: University of Washington, School of Medicine, WA, USA; Prof. Dr. Michael Heise: University of Applied Science of South-Westphalia, Iserlohn, Germany; Prof. Jan Bolinder: Professor of Clinical Diabetes Research at the Department of Medicine, Huddinge, Sweden; Prof. Katharine Barnard: Health Psychologist, Bournemouth University, Faculty of Health and Social Science, England; Dr. Barry H. Ginsberg: Diabetes Consultant, DMTC, NJ, USA; and Avner Gal, co-founder and former CEO of the Company.
We have not yet generated any material revenues from our operations and, as of September 30, 2017, have incurred an accumulated deficit of $44,275,592, stockholders’ deficit of $14,843,699 and negative operating cash flows. We currently have no material sources of recurring revenue and therefore are dependent upon external sources for financing our operations. There can be no assurance that we will succeed in obtaining the necessary financing to continue our operations. As a result, substantial doubt exists regarding our ability to continue as a going concern.
Recent Developments
On July 31, 2017, the Company, entered into a securities purchase agreement with certain accredited investors pursuant to which, the Company issued to the purchasers an aggregate of 1,000 Series C Units. The shares of Series C Preferred Stock comprising the Units are convertible into an aggregate of 222,236 shares of Common Stock, and the Series C-1 Warrants and Series C-2 Warrants comprising the Units are exercisable for an aggregate of 444,472 shares of Common Stock, in each case subject to certain adjustments. The Company received aggregate gross proceeds of $1,000,000 from the sale of the Series C Units.
The sale of the Series C Units pursuant to the securities purchase agreement was the twelfth closing of an offering of Series C Units by the Company. The first, second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth, ninth, tenth and eleventh closings, involving the sale by the Company of an aggregate of 1,133 Units, 1,351 Units, 890.5 Units, 1,050.65 Units, 540 Units, 357.75 Units, 506 Units, 403.9 Units, 2,560 Units, 1,551 Units and 660 Units, respectively (collectively, the “Prior Issuances”), were disclosed by the Company in Current Reports on Form 8-K filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on April 14, 2016, May 4, 2016, June 6, 2016, July 7, 2016, September 7, 2016, October 7, 2016, December 5, 2016, January 9, 2017, March 14, 2017, May 3, 2017 and June 23, 2017, respectively (collectively, the “Prior 8-Ks”), each of which is incorporated herein by reference.
Pursuant to a placement agent agreement (the “Placement Agent Agreement”) with Andrew Garrett, Inc. (“AGI”), the placement agent for the offering of the Series C Units,, at the closing of the sale of the Series C Units the Company paid AGI, as a commission, an amount (payable in cash and Common Stock) equal to 10% of the aggregate sales price of the Series C Units, plus a non-accountable expense allowance equal to 3% of the aggregate sales price of the Series C Units. In addition, pursuant to the Placement Agent Agreement, the Company is required to issue to AGI: (a) 5 year warrants to purchase up to 44,445 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $4.50 per share and (b) 5 year warrants to purchase up to 22,223 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $7.75 per share. The terms of these warrants will be substantially similar to the warrants issued to the investors except that the AGI warrants will also be exercisable on a cashless basis and will include full ratchet anti-dilution protection.
24
As a result of the initial issuance and sale of the Series C Units, pursuant to the terms of the warrants issued by us to purchasers of units consisting of shares of its Series A 5% Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock”) and warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock (the “Series A Warrants”), on April 8, 2016, the exercise price per share of the Series A Warrants decreased from $5.80 per share to $4.50 per share and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of each of the Series A Warrants, in the aggregate, increased such that the aggregate exercise price payable thereunder, after taking into account the decrease in the exercise price, will be equal to the aggregate exercise price prior to such adjustment. Also as a result of the initial issuance and sale of the Series C Units, pursuant to the terms of the certificates of designations for our Series A Preferred Stock and Series B 5.5% Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series B Preferred Stock”), on April 8, 2016, the conversion price per share of Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock decreased to $4.50 per share.
In September 2017, the Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors approved an increase of Sami Sassoun and Eugene Naidis’s base salaries to NIS 47,250 per month (approximately US$161,513 annually) and NIS 43,200 (US$147,660 annually), respectively, which shall only start to take effect after the Company has completed the next round of financing and has sufficient funds to finance operations. The Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors also approved certain on-target performance bonus at 35% of Mr. Sassoun and Mr. Naidis’s respective annual base salary and grant of stock options
Significant Accounting Policies
Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). In connection with the preparation of our financial statements, we are required to make assumptions and estimates about future events, and apply judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses and the related disclosures. We base our assumptions, estimates and judgments on historical experience, current trends and other factors that management believes to be relevant at the time our consolidated financial statements are prepared. On a regular basis, management reviews the accounting policies, assumptions, estimates and judgments to ensure that our financial statements are presented fairly and in accordance with U.S. GAAP. However, because future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty, actual results could differ from our assumptions and estimates, and such differences could be material.
Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements appearing in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. Our management believes that, as for the financial statements for the interim periods included in this report, the estimates and assumptions relating to (i) the fair value estimate of the Warrants with down-round protection, (ii) the allocation of the proceeds and the related issuance costs of the Series C Units, and (iii) the going concern assumption are considered critical accounting policies. However, due to the early stage of operations of the Company, there are no other accounting policies that are considered to be critical accounting policies by management.
Going Concern Uncertainty
The development and commercialization of our product will require substantial expenditures. We have not yet generated material revenues and have incurred a substantial accumulated deficit and negative operating cash flows. We currently have no sources of recurring revenue and are therefore dependent upon external sources for financing our operations. There can be no assurance that we will succeed in obtaining the necessary financing to continue our operations. Management’s plans concerning these matters are described in Note 1B to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. As a result, our independent registered public accounting firm has expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
1. Accounting Standards Update 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASU 2014-09”).
ASU 2014-09 outlines a single comprehensive model to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. ASU 2014-09 also requires entities to disclose sufficient information, both quantitative and qualitative, to enable users of financial statements to understand the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers.
An entity should apply the amendments in ASU 2014-09 using one of the following two methods: 1. Retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented with a possibility to elect certain practical expedients, or, 2. Retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying ASU 2014-09 recognized at the date of initial application. If an entity elects the latter transition method, it also should provide certain additional disclosures.
During 2016, the FASB issued several Accounting Standards Updates (“ASUs”) that focus on certain implementation issues of the new revenue recognition guidance including Narrow-Scope Improvements, Practical Expedients and technical corrections.
In accordance with an amendment to ASU 2014-09, introduced by Accounting Standard 2015-14, “Revenue from contracts with Customers – Deferral of the Effective Date”, for a public entity, the amendments in ASU 2014-09 are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period (the first quarter of fiscal year 2018 for the Company). Earlier application is permitted only as of annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period.
The Company intends to adopt ASU 2014-09 as of January 1, 2018.
The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of ASU 2014-09 on its revenue streams and selling contracts, if any, and on its financial reporting and disclosures. Management is expecting to complete the evaluation of the impact of the accounting and disclosure changes on the business processes, controls and systems during 2017.
Since the company did not report significant revenues, management believes that the adoption of ASU 2014-09 will not have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.
2. Accounting Standards Update 2015-11, “Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory”
Effective January 1, 2017, the Group adopted ASU No. 2015-11, Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory (Topic 330) (“ASU 2015- 11”).
ASU 2015-11 outlines that inventory within the scope of its guidance be measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Inventory measured using last-in, first-out (LIFO) and the retail inventory method (RIM) are not impacted by the new guidance. Prior to the issuance of ASU 2015-11, inventory was measured at the lower of cost or market (where market was defined as replacement cost, with a ceiling of net realizable value and floor of net realizable value less a normal profit margin).
The adoption of ASU 2015-11 did not have a significant effect on the consolidated financial statements.
26
3. Accounting Standard Update (ASU) No. 2017-11, “Earnings Per Share”
In July 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-11, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260); Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480);Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): (Part I) Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Down Round Features, (Part II) Replacement of the Indefinite Deferral for Mandatorily Redeemable Financial Instruments of Certain Nonpublic Entities and Certain Mandatorily Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests with a Scope Exception (“ASU 2017-11”).
Among others, Part I of ASU 2017-11 simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with down round features, which is a provision in an equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded feature) that provides a downward adjustment of the current exercise price based on the price of future equity offerings. Current accounting guidance creates cost and complexity for organizations that issue financial instruments with down round features by requiring, on an ongoing basis, fair value measurement of the entire instrument or conversion option.
ASU 2017-11 require companies to disregard the down round feature when assessing whether the instrument is indexed to its own stock, for purposes of determining liability or equity classification. Companies that provide earnings per share (EPS) data will adjust their basic EPS calculation for the effect of the feature when triggered (i.e., when the exercise price of the related equity-linked financial instrument is adjusted downward because of the down round feature) and will also recognize the effect of the trigger within equity.
ASU 2017-11 also addresses navigational concerns within the FASB Accounting Standards Codification related to an indefinite deferral available to private companies.
The provisions of the new ASU related to down rounds are effective for public business entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018 (fiscal 2019 for the Company). Early adoption is permitted for all entities.
The Company is evaluating the impact of ASU 2017-11 on its financial statements. Although this process has not been completed, managements believes that its provisions might impact the accounting of the financial instruments issued by the Company that include down-round protection.
Results of Operations
The following discussion of our operating results explains material changes in our results of operations for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2017 compared with the same period ended September 30, 2016. The discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this report.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2017 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2016
Revenues
During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2017, we had revenues of $125,881 from orders for our GlucoTrack® model DF-F glucose monitoring device and personal ear-clip (“PEC”) that are replaced every six months, as compared with $482,177 for the prior-year period. The decrease in revenues is due primarily to the fact that during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2016 we had revenues which resulted from the approval of the Notified Body in late 2015.
We recognize revenues from sales of the GlucoTrack® model DF-F and PECs when delivery has occurred, persuasive evidence of an agreement exists, the fee is fixed and determinable, collectability is reasonably assured and no further obligations exist.
27
Research and development expenses
Research and development expenses were $1,833,841 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2017, as compared to $2,226,833 for the prior-year period. The decrease is attributable primarily to the decrease in our cost of revenues, which is in line with the decrease in revenues. Additionally, during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2016 the Company had higher materials expenses primarily as a result of the engagement of research and development in the initial manufacturing of the GlucoTrack DF-F, and higher regulation related expenses relating primarily to our efforts in seeking regulatory approval for the GlucoTrack® model DF-F in China.
Research and development expenses consist primarily of salaries and other personnel-related expenses, including materials, travel expenses, clinical trials and other expenses. Subject to the receipt of additional funds to finance our operations (of which there can be no assurance), we expect research and development expenses to increase during the remainder of 2017 and beyond, primarily due to hiring additional personnel and developing our product line, as well as improvement of the GlucoTrack® model DF-F; however, we may adjust or allocate the level of our research and development expenses based on available financial resources and based on our commercial needs including specific requirements from customers, development of new GlucoTrack® models and others.
Selling and marketing expenses
Selling and marketing expenses were $1,064,048 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2017, as compared to $939,264 for the prior-year period. The increase is attributable to the addition our Chief Commercialization Officer and the related stock based compensation which he received.
Selling and marketing expenses consist primarily of salaries, travel expenses and other related expenses. Subject to the receipt of additional funds to finance our operations (of which there can be no assurance), we expect selling and marketing expenses to increase during the remainder of 2017 and beyond as we continue our focus on marketing and sales of the GlucoTrack® model DF-F; however, we may adjust or allocate the level of our marketing based on available financial resources and based on our commercial needs including the FDA registration process, specific requirements from customers, development of new GlucoTrack® models and others.
General and administrative expenses
General and administrative expenses were $5,124,048 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2017, as compared to $1,650,240 for the prior-year period. The increase is primarily attributable to severance paid to our former Chairman and CEO of approximately $162,000 as well as stock-based compensation in the amount of $152,000. In addition, the increase is attributable to a one time signing bonus of $412,500 including employer payroll taxes and stock-based compensation in the amount of approximately $1,939,000 paid to our new Chairman and CEO, recruiting fees of $195,000 and the related professional fees associated with the changes in management. The company also incurred approximately $245,000 related to stock-based compensation and fees paid to our Board members.
General and administrative expenses consist primarily of professional services, salaries, travel expenses and other related expenses for executive, finance and administrative personnel, including stock-based compensation expenses. Other general and administrative costs and expenses include facility-related costs not otherwise included in research and development costs and expenses, and professional fees for legal and accounting services. Subject to the receipt of additional funds to finance our operations (of which there can be no assurance), we expect selling, general and administrative expenses to increase during the remainder of 2017 and beyond.
28
Financing income, net
Financing income, net was $223,790 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2017, as compared to $63,654 for the prior-year period. The change is primarily attributable to changes in fair market value adjustments relating to our warrants which all include down-round protection. In accordance with U.S. GAAP, we mark the warrants to market on a quarterly basis based on the fair value estimate derived by using a binomial pricing model, with the changes in fair value recognized as finance expense or income, as applicable, in our consolidated statement of operations. The decrease in the estimated fair value of our warrants during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 amounted to $273,733 and $110,498, respectively, resulting primarily from the decrease in the expected term of warrants and the changes in the estimated expected volatility.
Net Loss
Net loss was $7,672,266 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2017, as compared to $4,270,506 for the prior-year period. The increase in net loss is attributable primarily to the increase in our general and administrative expenses, as described above.
Three Months Ended September 30, 2017 Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2016
Revenues
During the three-month period ended September 30, 2017, we had revenues of $20,900 from orders for our GlucoTrack® model DF-F glucose monitoring device and PECs that are replaced every six months, as compared with $11,299 for the prior-year period.
We recognize revenues from sales of the GlucoTrack® model DF-F and PECs when delivery has occurred, persuasive evidence of an agreement exists, the fee is fixed and determinable, collectability is reasonably assured and no further obligations exist.
Research and development expenses
Research and development expenses were $635,478 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2017, as compared to $695,437 for the prior-year period. The decrease is attributable to the fact that during the three-month period September 30, 2016 the Company had higher materials expenses primarily as a result of the engagement of research and development in the initial manufacturing of the GlucoTrack DF-F, and higher regulation related expenses relating primarily to our efforts in seeking regulatory approval for the GlucoTrack® model DF-F in China.
Research and development expenses consist primarily of salaries and other personnel-related expenses, including materials, travel expenses, clinical trials and other expenses. Subject to the receipt of additional funds to finance our operations (of which there can be no assurance), we expect research and development expenses to increase during the remainder of 2017 and beyond, primarily due to hiring additional personnel and developing our product line, as well as improvement of the GlucoTrack® model DF-F; however, we may adjust or allocate the level of our research and development expenses based on available financial resources and based on our commercial needs including the FDA registration process, specific requirements from customers, development of new GlucoTrack® models and others.
Selling and marketing expenses
Selling and marketing expenses were $465,814 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2017, as compared to $325,143 for the prior-year period. The increase is attributable to the addition our Chief Commercialization Officer and the related stock based compensation which he received

29
General and administrative expenses
General and administrative expenses were $1,567,970 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2017, as compared to $477,052 for the prior-year period. The increase is primarily attributable to compensation and stock-based compensation paid to our current Chairman and CEO of approximately $724,345 during the three-month period ended September 30, 2017. In addition, we incurred an increase of our legal fees of approximately $212,000 during the three-month period ended September 30, 2017.
General and administrative expenses consist primarily of professional services, salaries, travel expenses and other related expenses for executive, finance and administrative personnel, including stock-based compensation expenses. Other general and administrative costs and expenses include facility-related costs not otherwise included in research and development costs and expenses, and professional fees for legal and accounting services. Subject to the receipt of additional funds to finance our operations (of which there can be no assurance), we expect selling, general and administrative expenses to increase during the remainder of 2017 and beyond.
Financing income.net
Financing income, net was $63,622 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2017, as compared to a loss of $31,589 for the prior-year period. The change is primarily attributable to changes in fair market value adjustments relating to our warrants. In accordance with U.S. GAAP, we mark the warrants to market on a quarterly basis based on the fair value estimate derived by using a binomial pricing model, with the changes in fair value recognized as finance expense or income, as applicable, in our consolidated statement of operations. The decrease in the estimated fair value of our warrants during the three-month period ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 amounted to $82,658 and $46,286, respectively, resulting primarily from the decrease in the expected term of warrants and the changes in the estimated expected volatility.
Net Loss
Net loss was $2,584,740 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2017, as compared to $1,454,744 for the prior-year period. The increase in net loss is attributable primarily to the increase in our general and administrative expenses, as described above.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of September 30, 2017, cash on hand was approximately $462,000. During the first nine months of 2017 we received aggregate net proceeds of approximately $5.4 million (net of related cash expenses) from the issuance and sale of Series C Units. During the first nine months of 2017, we did not collect a material amount in cash proceeds from the fulfillment of orders for our improved GlucoTrack® model DF-F. While we expect to generate additional cash from sales, we do not anticipate that our income from operations will be sufficient to sustain our operations in the next 12 months. Based on our current cash burn rate, strategy and operating plan, we believe that our cash and cash equivalents will enable us to operate for a period of less than three months from the date of this report. In order to fund our anticipated liquidity needs beyond such period (or possibly earlier if our current cash burn rate, strategy or operating plan change in a way that accelerates or increases our liquidity needs), we will need to raise additional capital.
We have a credit line with Bank HaPoalim of NIS 150,000 (approximately $42,505 based on the exchange rate of 3.529 NIS/dollar as of September 30, 2017). Borrowings under the line of credit are secured by our funds on deposit with the bank at the time of borrowing, which generally must be sufficient to cover the principal amount of the borrowings in full.
30
Messrs. Avner Gal and Zvi Cohen collectively loaned Integrity Israel NIS 176,000 ($49,872 based on the same exchange rate) on May 15, 2002 pursuant to Board approval. Messrs. Nir Tarlovsky, Yitzhak Fisher and Asher Kugler loaned Integrity Israel NIS 336,300 ($95,296 based on the same exchange rate) on March 16, 2004. These loans are not required to be repaid until the first year in which we realize profits in our annual statement of operations (accounting profit). At such time, the loans are to be repaid on a quarterly basis in an amount equal to 10% of our total sales in the relevant quarter, beginning on the quarter following the first year in which we realize profits in our annual statement of operations. The total amount to be repaid by us to each lender shall be an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount loaned by such lender to us, plus an amount equal to the product of the amount of each payment made by us in respect of such loan multiplied by the percentage difference between the Israeli Consumer Price Index on the date on which the loan was made and the Israeli Consumer Price Index on the date of such payment. However, notwithstanding the above-mentioned mechanism, we will not be required to repay the loans during any time when such repayment would cause a deficit in our working capital. Our Board is entitled to modify the repayment terms of these loans, so long as such modification does not discriminate against any particular lender, and provided that all payments must be allocated among the lenders on a pro-rata basis.
Integrity Israel is required to pay royalties to the Office of the Chief Scientist of the Ministry of Industry, Trade and Labor of the State of Israel at a rate ranging between 3-5% of the proceeds from the sale of the Company’s products arising from the development plan up to an amount equal to $93,300, plus interest at LIBOR from the date of grant. As of September 30, 2017, the contingent liability with respect to royalty payment on future sales equaled approximately $52,453, excluding interest.
Net Cash Used in Operating Activities for the Nine-Month Periods Ended September 30, 2017 and September 30, 2016
Net cash used in operating activities was $5,107,009 and $4,346,289 for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Net cash used in operating activities primarily reflects the net loss for those periods of $7,672,266 and $4,270,506, respectively, increased by non-cash changes in fair value of warrants of $240,613 and $110,498, respectively and partially offset by the decrease of $2,072,052 related to stock-based compensation as described above in general and administrative expenses. Net cash used in operating activities was also partially offset by changes in operating assets and liabilities in the aggregate amounts of $683,125 and $273,745 respectively.
Net Cash Used in Investing Activities for the Nine-Month Periods Ended September 30, 2017 and September 30, 2016
Net cash used in investing activities was $19,469 and $75,269 for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2017, and 2016, respectively, and was used to purchase equipment (such as computers, R&D and office equipment).
Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities for the Nine-Month Periods Ended September 30, 2017 and September 30, 2016
Net cash provided by financing activities was $5,374,074 and $4,503,611 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Cash provided by financing activities for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 reflected net capital raised from the issuance of Series C Units.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of September 30, 2017, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(a)(4) of Regulation S-K.
Not required for smaller reporting companies.
31
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2017. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2017, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
