NOTE 1 - GENERAL

Description of Business

New York Global Innovations Inc. (the “Predecessor Company”) was originally incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada, on April 22, 1997. On July 8, 2003, the Predecessor Company effected a reincorporation from Nevada to Delaware through a merger with and into its wholly-owned subsidiary, Inksure Technologies (Delaware) Inc., which was incorporated on September 30, 2003. The surviving corporation in the merger was Inksure Technologies (Delaware) Inc., which thereupon renamed itself Inksure Technologies Inc. In 2014, following the sale of its assets to Spectra Systems Corporation, the Predecessor Company changed its name to New York Global Innovations Inc. On August 23, 2016, the Predecessor Company consummated an agreement and plan of merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Artemis Pharma Inc.

Based on the lack of Company business activities since January 10, 2019, our Company is classified as a “shell” company as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

The Merger between the Predecessor Company and Artemis was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization. As the stockholders of Artemis received the largest ownership interest in the Predecessor Company, Artemis was determined to be the “accounting acquirer” in the reverse acquisition. As a result, the historical financial statements of the Predecessor Company were replaced with the historical financial statements of Artemis. Following the Merger, the Predecessor Company and its subsidiary, Artemis, are collectively referred to as the “Company.”

Establishment of Artemis (the “accounting acquirer”):

Artemis was incorporated in the State of Delaware on April 19, 2016. Until January 10, 2019, the Company was engaged in the development of agents for the prevention and treatment of severe and potentially life-threatening infectious diseases.

On January 10, 2019, Artemis received a notice regarding the immediate termination of a certain license agreement, dated May 31, 2016 (the “License Agreement”), executed by and between the Company, Hadasit Medical Research Services and Development Ltd. (“Hadasit”) and the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology R and D Corporation Limited (“RDC”). Artemis relied primarily on the License Agreement with respect to the development of Artemisone, its lead product candidate. Since the termination of the License Agreement, Artemis no longer has any operating business.

NOTE 1 - GENERAL (Cont.)

Going Concern:

To date, Artemis has not generated revenues from its activities and has incurred substantial operating losses. Management expects Artemis to continue to generate substantial operating losses and to continue to fund its operations primarily through additional raises of capital.

Such conditions raise substantial doubts about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plan includes raising funds from outside potential investors. However, there is no assurance such funding will be available to the Company or that it will be obtained on terms favorable to the Company or will provide the Company with sufficient funds to meet its objectives. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of assets, carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that may be required should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

As discussed above, on January 10, 2019, Artemis received a notice regarding the immediate termination of the License Agreement.

NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Unaudited Interim Financial Statements

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of the SEC regulations. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments except as otherwise discussed).

Use of estimates in the preparation of financial statements:

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. The Company’s management believes that the estimates, judgment and assumptions used are reasonable based upon information available at the time they are made. These estimates, judgments and assumptions can affect reported amounts and disclosures made. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash equivalents are short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to cash with maturities of three months or less as of the date acquired.

NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.)

Fair value of financial instruments

The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, other receivables and other accounts payable approximate their fair value due to the short-term maturity of these instruments.

The Company measures the fair value of certain of its financial instruments (such as the derivative warrant liabilities) on a recurring basis. The method of determining the fair value of derivative warrant liabilities is discussed in Note 7B.

A fair value hierarchy is used to rank the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value will be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

Level 1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

Level 2 - Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities, unadjusted quoted prices in the markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

Basic and diluted net loss per share

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

The weighted average number of shares outstanding has been retroactively restated for the equivalent number of shares received by the accounting acquirer as a result of the reverse merger as if these shares had been outstanding as of the beginning of the earliest period presented.

Research and development expenses, net

Research and development expenses are charged to the statement of operations as incurred.

NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.)

Income Tax

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” This topic prescribes the use of the liability method whereby deferred tax asset and liability account balances are determined based on differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities. As such, deferred taxes are computed based on the tax rates anticipated (under applicable law as of the balance sheet date) to be in effect when the deferred taxes are expected to be paid or realized.

Share-based compensation

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

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

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

Recent Accounting Standards

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued a new lease accounting standard requiring the recognition of lease assets and liabilities on the balance sheet. This standard is effective beginning in the first quarter of 2019; early adoption is permitted. To date, the Company is not engaged in lease agreements and accordingly, the standard has no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.)

Recent Accounting Standards (Cont.)

In July 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-11, which includes Part I “Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Down Round Features” and Part II “Replacement of the Indefinite Deferral for Mandatorily Redeemable Financial Instruments of Certain Nonpublic Entities and Certain Mandatorily Redeemable Non-controlling Interests With a Scope Exception”. The ASU makes limited changes to the Board’s guidance on classifying certain financial instruments as either liabilities or equity. The ASU’s objective is to improve (1) the accounting for instruments with “down-round” provisions and (2) the readability of the guidance in ASC 480 on distinguishing liabilities from equity by replacing the indefinite deferral of certain pending content with scope exceptions. This standard is effective beginning in the first quarter of 2019. The Company had derivative warranty liabilities as discussed in Note 7B which due to the adoption of this new standard have been re-classified as equity. The following table provides a reconciliation of the derivative warrant liabilities, additional paid-in capital and accumulated deficit on the consolidated balance sheet as of January 1, 2019:

	As of January 1, 2019			Adjustment			As of December 31, 2018

Derivative warrant liability		-			(163	)		163

Additional paid-in capital		1,890			319			1,571
Accumulated deficit		(2,076	)		(156	)		(1,920	)

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07 “Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting.” These amendments expand the scope of Topic 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation (which currently only includes share-based payments to employees) to include share-based payments issued to nonemployees for goods or services. Consequently, the accounting for share-based payments to nonemployees and employees will be substantially aligned. The ASU supersedes Subtopic 505-50, Equity - Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within that fiscal year. Early adoption is permitted. ASU 2018-07 did not have a material impact on Company’s consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 3 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Agreement with Hadasit and RDC

On May 31, 2016, Artemis entered into the License Agreement with Hadasit and RDC, pursuant to which Artemis acquired a worldwide, royalty-bearing license based on net sales to make any and all use of certain patents and know-how owned by Hadasit and RDC relating to Artemisone. Artemis will rely primarily on the License Agreement with respect to the development of Artemisone, its lead product candidate. As part of this agreement, Artemis agreed to certain development and investment milestones. Additionally, Artemis agreed to certain investment milestones, including the requirement to obtain financing of not less than $700,000 within seven months of the closing of the Merger on August 23, 2016 (such time, the “Effective Time”), $1 million within 12 months of the Effective Time and $2 million within 24 months of the Effective Time. In the event that Artemis fails to meet development or investment milestones as set forth in the License Agreement, Hadasit has the right to terminate the License Agreement.

On January 10, 2019, the Company received the Notice from Hadasit regarding the immediate termination of the License Agreement. The License Agreement was terminated as a result of the non-payment for certain sponsored research fees, patent expenses, patent maintenance fees and consulting fees.

NOTE 4 - INCOME TAX

Tax rates applicable to the income

U.S. corporate tax

The maximum statutory federal tax rate in the US is 21%. The Company is not subject to current federal taxes, as it has incurred losses.

Israel corporate tax

The Company’s subsidiary in Israel is subject to income tax at a regular corporate tax of 23%.

Deferred income taxes

As the Company has not yet generated revenues, it is more likely than not that sufficient taxable income will not be available for the tax losses to be utilized in the future. Therefore, a valuation allowance was recorded to reduce the deferred tax assets to its recoverable amounts.

	As of September 30, 2019			As of December 31, 2018

Deferred tax assets:
Deferred taxes due to carryforward losses		2,877			2,864

Valuation allowance		(2,877	)		(2,864	)

Net deferred tax asset		-			-

Tax loss carry-forwards

Net operating loss carry-forwards as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 are as follows:

	As of September 30, 2019		As of December 31, 2018
Israel		4,848		4,799
United States (*)		8,388		8,385

		13,236		13,184

Net operating losses in Israel may be carried forward indefinitely. Net operating losses in the U.S. are available through 2027.

(*) Utilization of U.S. net operating losses may be subject to substantial annual limitation due to the “change in ownership” provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and similar state provisions. The annual limitation may result in the expiration of net operating losses before utilization.

NOTE 5 - WARRANTS ISSUED TO INVESTORS

The Company issued warrants to purchase common stock to investors. The below table lists these warrants and their material terms.

Issuance date	Number of warrants outstanding as September 30, 2019		Exercise price		Exercisable through

October 2017		275,000	$	2.00	October 2022

The warrants issued in connection with the October 2017 financing and which contain a full ratchet anti-dilution price protection (See note 7B).

NOTE 6 - Computation of Net Loss per Share

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss, as adjusted, to include the dividend participation rights of preferred shares outstanding during the relevant fiscal year, by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the relevant fiscal year. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss, as adjusted, to include the dividend participation rights of preferred shares outstanding during the relevant fiscal year as well as of preferred shares that would have been outstanding if all potentially dilutive preferred shares had been issued, by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the relevant fiscal year, plus the number of shares of common stock that would have been outstanding if all potentially dilutive common stock had been issued, using the treasury stock method, in accordance with ASC 260-10 “Earnings per Share”.

The loss and weighted average number of common stock used in the calculation of basic loss per share are as follows (in thousands, except share and per share data):

	Nine Months Ended September 30						Three Months Ended September 30

The shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock have the right to receive a distribution of any surplus of assets upon liquidation of the Company before any distribution or payment shall be made to the holders of any other securities.

Issuance of Shares

On August 19, 2016 and prior to consummation of the merger, Artemis issued 524 shares of common stock (221,307 shares as adjusted to reflect the reverse recapitalization and reverse stock split) for an aggregate purchase price of $127, which was received in October 2016.

In August 2016, immediately upon consummation of the Merger, the Company issued 68,321 shares of the Company’s common stock, as well as 453 shares of the Company’s newly designated Series A Convertible Preferred Stock convertible into 658,498 shares of common stock, to an investor for an aggregate purchase price of $481,000 (net of issuance expenses). These shares have anti-dilution protection for a period of twenty-four months. The anti-dilution protection was not triggered and the anti-dilution protection expired in August 2018. In addition, the investor had an option to purchase through August 2018 up to an additional 100% of its preferred A shares at 120% of the per-share purchase price paid in August 2016. This option was not exercised. This additional purchase option was recorded in equity.

In October 2017, the Company issued 300,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, warrants to purchase 275,000 shares of common stock, as well as 250 shares newly designated Series C Convertible Preferred Stock to investors for an aggregate purchase price of $550,000 less issuance expenses. Each share of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible into 1,000 shares of common stock, subject to adjustments in the event of future financing at a price of less than the conversion price. Preferred shares confer upon their holders the right to receive dividends when paid to holders of common stock of the Company on an as-converted basis. The holders of shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock have the right to receive a distribution of any surplus of assets upon liquidation of the Company before any distribution or payment shall be made to the holders of any other securities.

NOTE 7 - STOCK CAPITAL (Cont.)

Issuance of Shares (Cont.)

The warrants to purchase 275,000 shares of the Company’s common stock contain a full ratchet anti-dilution price protection so that, in most situations upon the issuance of any common stock or securities convertible into common stock at a price below the then-existing exercise price of the outstanding warrants, the warrant exercise price will be reset to the lower common stock sales price.

As such anti-dilution price protection did not meet the specific conditions for equity classification as of the date of issuance of the warrants, the Company was required to classify the fair value of these warrants as a liability, with changes in fair value to be recorded as income (loss) due to change in fair value of warrant liability. The estimated fair value of such derivative warrant liability at issuance date, was approximately $319. As further described in Note 2J, upon adoption of ASU 2017-11, such warrants were retrospectively classified as equity.

Reverse Stock Split

On December 16, 2016, the Company effected a one-for-fifty (1:50) reverse stock split of its issued and outstanding shares of common stock. Share data included in these financial statements is retroactively adjusted as if the reverse stock split had occurred at the beginning of the earliest period presented.

Options issued to employees and consultants

On August 22, 2016, the Company granted 126,730 stock options to consultants. Each stock option is exercisable into a share of the Company’s common stock of and expires no later than 10 years from the date of grant.

One third of the options vested on the grant date, and one third of the options vest upon the first and second anniversaries of the grant date, with the option becoming fully vested on August 22, 2018. 35,202 of these options were exercised in July 2017.

On August 1, 2017, the Company granted 242,640 stock options to the Company’s CEO. These options are subject to a 48 month vesting period whereby 5,055 options were vested on September 1, 2017 and 5,055 options become vested on the first day of each following month assuming the employment agreement has not been terminated. In addition, on March 15, 2018 the Company granted 48,528 stock options to the Company’s CEO and 50,000 stock options to the Company’s CFO. Each stock option is exercisable into a share of the Company’s common stock. The options granted to the CEO on March 15, 2018 vested on the grant date and the options granted to the CFO will vest over a 48-month period beginning February 1, 2018. These options will expire on March 15, 2028. As a result, the Company recognized for the period ended September 30, 2019 compensation expenses in the amount of $12 included in General & Administrative Expenses.

On August 10, 2018, Brian Culley, the Company’s former Chief Executive Officer, resigned from his position as Chief Executive Officer of the Company, effective 60 days after such notice as provided in his employment agreement.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

In this section, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation,” references to “the Company” “we,” “us,” or “our,” refer to Artemis Therapeutics, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries and dollar amounts are in thousands, except as otherwise stated.

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains statements that may constitute “forward-looking statements.” Generally, forward-looking statements include words or phrases such as “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “projects,” “could,” “may,” “might,” “should,” “will,” the negative of such terms, and words and phrases of similar import. For example, when we discuss possible strategic alternatives, we are using forward-looking statements. Such statements are based on management’s current expectations and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, the risks detailed from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC. These risks and uncertainties could cause our actual results to differ materially from those described in our forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statement represents our expectations or forecasts only as of the date it was made and should not be relied upon as representing its expectations or forecasts as of any subsequent date. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to correct or update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, even if our expectations or forecasts change.

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the financial statements, related notes and other information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and with the Risk Factors included in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

OVERVIEW

Until January 10, 2019, we were engaged in the development of agents for the prevention and treatment of severe and potentially life-threatening infectious diseases. On January 10, 2019, we received a notice regarding the immediate termination of a certain license agreement, dated May 31, 2016 (the “License Agreement”), executed by and between the Company, Hadasit Medical Research Services and Development Ltd. and the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology R and D Corporation Limited. We relied primarily on the License Agreement with respect to the development of Artemisone, our lead product candidate. Since the termination of the License Agreement, the Company no longer has any operating business.

We believe that we will continue to experience losses and increased negative working capital and negative cash flows in the near future and will not be able to return to positive cash flow without either obtaining additional financing in the near term or completing a business transaction. We have experienced difficulties accessing the equity and debt markets and raising capital and there can be no assurance that we will be able to raise such additional capital on favorable terms, or at all, or be able to complete a business transaction. If additional funds are raised through the issuance of equity securities or completing a business transaction, our existing stockholders will experience significant dilution. In order to conserve our cash and manage its liquidity, we have implemented cost-cutting initiatives including the reduction of employee headcount and overhead costs.

Our Board of Directors is exploring strategic alternatives, which may include future acquisitions, a merger with another company or the sale of the public shell company.

THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2019 COMPARED TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2018 (dollars in thousands)

REVENUES. We did not have any revenue-producing operations for the three months ended September 30, 2019 or for the three months ended September 30, 2018.

PROFIT FROM SALE OF OPERATIONS, NET. We did not incur a profit from the sale of operations in the three months ended September 30, 2019 or the three months ended September 30, 2018.

COST OF REVENUES. We had no cost of revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2019 or for the three months ended September 30, 2018 due to the fact that we had no revenue-producing operations.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES. We incurred no research and development expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $60 for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The research and development expenses consisted primarily of consulting services, patent expenses and option expenses. The decrease in research and development expenses is primarily due to the termination of the License Agreement resulting in the Company no longer having business operations. We did not capitalize research and development expenses as all such expenses were charged to operating expenses as incurred.

SELLING AND MARKETING EXPENSES. We did not incur any selling and marketing expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2019 or for the three months ended September 30, 2018 due to us no longer having business operations.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. We incurred $22 in general and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $143 for the three months ended September 30, 2018, which consisted primarily of compensation costs for administrative, finance and general management personnel, insurance, legal, accounting and administrative costs and option expenses. The decrease in general and administrative expenses is primarily due to us no longer having business operations.

FINANCIAL (EXPENSE) INCOME, NET. We incurred $2 in financial expense for the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to financial income of $95 for the three months ended September 30, 2018. This decrease in financial income is primarily due to the adoption of ASU 2017-11, which resulted in the re-classification of certain warrants from a liability to equity.

OTHER EXPENSES. We incurred no capital losses in the three months ended September 30, 2019 or September 30, 2018.

NET LOSS. We incurred a net loss of $22 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to incurring a net loss of $108 for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The decrease in net loss is primarily due to a decrease in operating expenses.

NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2019 COMPARED TO THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2018 (dollars in thousands)

REVENUES. We did not have any revenue-producing operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 or for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

PROFIT FROM SALE OF OPERATIONS, NET. We did not incur a profit from the sale of operations in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 or the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

COST OF REVENUES. We had no cost of revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 or for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 due to the fact that we had no revenue-producing operations.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES. We incurred no research and development expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $189 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The research and development expenses consisted primarily of consulting services, patent expenses and option expenses. The decrease in research and development expenses is primarily due to the termination of the License Agreement resulting in the Company no longer having business operations. We did not capitalize research and development expenses as all such expenses were charged to operating expenses as incurred.

SELLING AND MARKETING EXPENSES. We did not incur any selling and marketing expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 or for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 due to us no longer having business operations.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. We incurred $112 in general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $526 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, which consisted primarily of compensation costs for administrative, finance and general management personnel, insurance, legal, accounting and administrative costs and option expenses. The decrease in general and administrative expenses is primarily due to us no longer having business operations.

FINANCIAL EXPENSE (INCOME), NET. We incurred $2 in financial expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to financial income of $255 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. This decrease in financial income is primarily due to the adoption of ASU 2017-11, which resulted in the re-classification of certain warrants from a liability to equity.

OTHER EXPENSES. We incurred no capital losses in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 or September 30, 2018.

NET LOSS. We incurred a net loss of $114 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to incurring a net loss of $460 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The decrease in net loss is primarily due to a decrease in operating expenses.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As of September 30, 2019, we had an accumulated deficit of $2,190 and a negative working capital (current assets less current liabilities) of $23. Losses will probably continue for the foreseeable future.

We do not have any material capital commitments for capital expenditures as of September 30, 2019.

Since the closing of our merger with Artemis Therapeutics Inc., a Delaware corporation and Artemis Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and our wholly-owned subsidiary on August 23, 2016, we have financed our operations primarily through private placements of our securities. On October 23, 2017, we executed securities purchase agreements relating to a private placement offering of an aggregate of 300,000 shares of our common stock at a purchase price of $1.00 per share, and of 250 shares of our Series C Convertible Preferred Stock, at a purchase price of $1,000.00 per share, with such shares of Series C Preferred Stock initially convertible into an aggregate of 250,000 shares of common stock. In addition, each investor received a warrant to purchase fifty percent of the number of shares of common stock effectively purchased in the offering. The closing of the offering took place on October 23, 2017.

We have sustained significant operating losses in recent periods, which have resulted in a significant reduction in our cash reserves. Due to the termination of the License Agreement, we no longer have any business operations. We believe that we will continue to experience losses and negative cash flows in the near future and will not be able to return to positive cash flow without obtaining additional financing in the near term or entering into a business transaction. We have experienced difficulties accessing the equity and debt markets and raising capital or entering into a business transaction, and there can be no assurance that we will be able to raise such additional capital on favorable terms or at all or entering into a business transaction. If additional funds are raised through the issuance of equity securities or entering into a business transaction, our existing stockholders will experience significant further dilution. In order to conserve our cash and manage its liquidity, we have implemented cost-cutting initiatives including the reduction of employee headcount and overhead costs.

As of September 30, 2019, we had accumulated liabilities of $256.

As of September 30, 2019, we had cash and cash equivalents of $3 and negative cash flows from operating activities of $104 for the period then ended. The negative cash flow from operating activities in the period ended September 30, 2019 is attributable mainly to the net loss of $114, share-based compensation expenses of $12, a decrease in accrued expenses and other payables of $5, and a decrease in other accounts receivable and prepaid expenses of $3.

We had positive cash flows of $100 from financing activities in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2019. The positive cash flow from financing activities in the period ended September 30, 2019 is due to proceeds of $100 from related parties.

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS AND COMMITMENTS

On May 15, 2019, the Company issued two unsecured promissory notes (each, a “Note” and collectively the “Notes”) in the aggregate principal amount of $100 to two related parties. $20 and $30 of the funds were received by the Company on March 22, 2019, and April 4, 2019, respectively. The balance of the funds was received in May 2019. Each Note accrues interest at a rate of 6% per annum until the Note is repaid in full. All payments of principal, interest and other amounts under each Note are payable by June 30, 2021. The proceeds of the Notes will be used by the Company for general working capital purposes.

OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

None.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Under the direction of the Chief Financial Officer, we evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on the evaluation, and as a result of the material weaknesses described below, the Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2019.

No change in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2019, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, such internal control over financial reporting.

Our management has worked, and continues to work, to strengthen our internal control over financial reporting. We are committed to ensuring that such controls are designed and operating effectively. We intend to remediate the material weakness in internal controls identified in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018, subject to possessing sufficient financial means to do so, by hiring internal staff to our financial department to assist our Chief Financial Officer as well as intend to form an audit committee comprised of independent directors with sufficient financial reporting experience.
