a.
General:
 
 
1)
Incorporation and operations
 
Oramed Pharmaceuticals Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated on April 12, 2002, under the laws of the State of Nevada. From incorporation until March 3, 2006, the Company was an exploration stage company engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties. On February 17, 2006, the Company entered into an agreement with Hadasit Medical Services and Development Ltd (“Hadasit”) to acquire the provisional patent related to orally ingestible insulin capsule to be used for the treatment of individuals with diabetes. In subsequent periods, the Company entered into additional development agreements with Hadasit, the most recent of which was signed on September 11, 2011, see also note 2a.
 
On March 11, 2011, the Company was reincorporated from the State of Nevada to the State of Delaware.
 
On May 14, 2007, the Company incorporated a wholly-owned subsidiary in Israel, Oramed Ltd., which is engaged in research and development. Unless the context indicates otherwise, the term “Group” refers to Oramed Pharmaceuticals Inc. and its Israeli subsidiary, Oramed Ltd. (the “Subsidiary”), (together with the Company, "the Group").

In March 2011, the Subsidiary sold shares of its investee company, Entera Bio Ltd ("Entera") to D.N.A Biomedical Solutions Ltd ("D.N.A"), other than a 3% interest, which is accounted for as a cost method investment (amounting to $1,027 as of the end of the period). In consideration for the shares sold to D.N.A, the Company received a promissory note issued by D.N.A in the principal amount of $450,000, with an annual interest rate of 0.45%, that was paid in full in November 2011, and 8,404,667 ordinary shares of D.N.A, see also note 4.
 
As part of this agreement, the Subsidiary entered into a patent transfer agreement according to which, the Subsidiary assigned to Entera all of its right, title and interest in and to the patent application that it has licensed to Entera since August 2010.  Under this agreement, the Subsidiary is entitled to receive from Entera royalties of 3% of Entera's net revenues (as defined in the agreement) and a license back of that patent application for use in respect of diabetes and influenza. As of November 30, 2013, Entera had not yet realized any revenues and had not paid any royalties to the Subsidiary.

NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued):
 
 
2)
Development and liquidity risks
 
The Company has been in the development stage since its formation and has not yet generated any revenues from its operations.

The Group is engaged in research and development in the biotechnology field and is considered a development stage company in accordance with the ASC Topic 915 "Development Stage Entities" due to the fact that it has not generated any revenues from its operations.
 
Successful completion of the Company’s development programs and its transition to normal operations is dependent upon obtaining necessary regulatory approvals from the FDA prior to selling its products within the United States, and foreign regulatory approvals must be obtained to sell its products internationally. There can be no assurance that the Company will receive regulatory approval of any of its product candidates, and a substantial amount of time may pass before the Company achieves a level of revenues adequate to support its operations, if at all. The Company also expects to incur substantial expenditures in connection with the regulatory approval process for each of its product candidates during their respective developmental periods. Obtaining marketing approval will be directly dependent on the Company’s ability to implement the necessary regulatory steps required to obtain marketing approval in the United States and in other countries. The Company cannot predict the outcome of these activities.

Based on its current cash resources and commitments as of November 30, 2013, the Company believes it will be able to maintain its current planned development activities and the corresponding level of expenditures for at least the next 12 months and beyond. If there are unexpected increases in general and administrative expenses or research and development expenses, the Company may need to seek additional financing during the next 12 months. See also note 6a, with respect to the Company's offering in December 2013.
 
 
3)
Reverse stock split

On January 10, 2013, the Company's Board of Directors approved a reverse stock split at a ratio of one-for-twelve, effective January 22, 2013, which decreased the number of common shares issued and outstanding as of January 23, 2013, from approximately 86.5 million shares to approximately 7.2 million shares and the number of authorized common shares from 200 million shares to approximately 16.7 million shares. All share and per share amounts included in the consolidated financial statements have been adjusted retroactively to reflect the effects of the reverse stock split.

Newly issued and recently adopted Accounting Pronouncements
 
In February 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2013-02, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (“ASU 2013-02”). This update requires an entity to provide information about the amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by component. In addition, ASU 2013-02 requires presentation, either on the face of the income statement or in the notes, of significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by respective line items of net income, but only if the amounts reclassified are required to be reclassified in their entirety in the same reporting period. For amounts that are not required to be reclassified in their entirety to net income, an entity is required to cross-reference to other disclosures that provide additional details about these amounts. The amendments in ASU 2013-02 will be effective prospectively for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012, and interim periods within those annual periods. The Company adopted ASU 2013-02 in the first quarter of fiscal year 2014. The adoption of ASU 2013-02 does not have any material effect on the consolidated financial statement presentation.

Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements Preparation
 
The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2013 (the “2013 Form 10-K”). These condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments that are of a normal recurring nature and that are considered necessary for a fair statement of the results of the periods presented. Certain information and disclosures normally included in annual consolidated financial statements have been omitted in this interim period report pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Because the condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include all of the information and disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements, they should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes included in the 2013 Form 10-K. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of a full fiscal year’s results.

NOTE 3 – FAIR VALUE:
 
Fair value is based on the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In order to increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements, the guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value into three broad levels, which are described as follows:
 
 
Level 1:
Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs.
 
 
Level 2:
Observable prices that are based on inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.
 
 
Level 3:
Unobservable inputs are used when little or no market data is available. The fair value hierarchy gives the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs.
 
As of November 30, 2013 and August 31, 2013 the assets or liabilities measured at fair value were comprised of available for sale securities (level 1), see also note 4.
 
In determining fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible.
 
As of November 30, 2013, the carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, short term deposits, accounts receivable, other current assets and accounts payables and accrued expenses approximates their fair values due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.
 
The fair value of long-term deposits also approximates their carrying value, since they bear interest at rates close to the prevailing market rates. The amounts funded in respect of employee rights are stated at cash surrender value which approximates its fair value.
 
In order to secure the fulfillment of the Company’s obligations under credit cards, the Company has placed a restricted deposit with the bank in an amount of $16,000.
 
The Company considers available evidence in evaluating potential impairments of its investments, including the duration and extent to which fair value is less than cost, and the Company’s ability and intent to hold the investment. Realized gains and losses on sales of the securities are included in the consolidated statement of operations as financial income or expenses.

As of November 30, 2013, the Group owns approximately 10.6% of D.N.A’s outstanding ordinary shares.

The cost of the securities sold and the amount reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income into financial income (amounting to $18,454 during the three month period ended November 30, 2013), were determined by specific identification.

The shares are traded on the TASE and have a quoted price. The fair value of those securities is measured at the quoted prices of the securities on the measurement date.
 
As of November 30, 2013 and August 31, 2013 the available for sale securities are classified as level 1 as described in the table below:

Available-for-sale securities are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses, net of related tax recorded as a separate component of other comprehensive income in equity until realized. Unrealized losses that are considered to be other-than-temporary are charged to statement of operations as an impairment charge and are included in the consolidated statement of operations under impairment of available-for-sale securities.

Recent business developments and financing activities
 
In September 2013, we submitted a pre-Investigational New Drug, or pre-IND, package to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, for ORMD-0901, our oral exenatide capsule, for a Phase 2 clinical trial on healthy volunteers and type 2 diabetic patients.  We expect to begin a non-U.S. based Phase 1a trial and IND-enabling studies in 2014.

During the months September through December 2013, we received allowance for a patent entitled "Methods and Compositions for Oral Administrations of Proteins," from the Australian, Chinese, Israeli, Russian, Canadian, Japanese and European Patent Offices.

In December 2013, we received allowance for a patent entitled "Methods and Compositions for Oral Administration of Exenatide," from the Israeli Patent Office.

In December 2013, we completed and reported successful results in a non-U.S. clinical trial testing the pharmacokinetic dose response of our orally ingestible insulin capsule in type 1 diabetes patients.

In December 2012, we filed an Investigational New Drug, or IND, application with the FDA to begin a Phase 2 clinical trial of our oral insulin capsule, in order to evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of our oral insulin capsule on type 2 diabetic volunteers.  We have been communicating with the FDA regarding such IND application, and, according to the FDA’s request, conducted a Phase 2a sub study before we may proceed with the Phase 2b clinical trial. The Phase 2a sub study, which is an in-patient study with 30 individuals that began in July 2013, was completed in December 2013.  We expect to begin the Phase 2b clinical trial in the third quarter of calendar year 2014.

In December 2013, we entered into a Placement Agency Agreement with Aegis Capital Corp., or Aegis, pursuant to which Aegis agreed to use their reasonable best efforts to arrange for the sale of up to 1,580,000 shares of our common stock.  In connection therewith, on December 30, 2013, we also entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement, pursuant to which we agreed to sell an aggregate of 1,580,000 shares of common stock, at a price of $10.00 per share, to two institutional investors in a registered direct offering, or the Offering. We received all funds and issued all shares of common stock in connection with the Offering in December 2013. Our aggregate net proceeds from the offering were approximately $14,890,000, after deducting Placement Agents' commissions and estimated offering expenses.

Research and development expenses

Research and development expenses include costs directly attributable to the conduct of research and development programs, including the cost of salaries, payroll taxes, employee benefits, costs of registered patents materials, supplies, the cost of services provided by outside contractors, including services related to our clinical trials, clinical trial expenses, the full cost of manufacturing drug for use in research, preclinical development.  All costs associated with research and development are expensed as incurred.

Clinical trial costs are a significant component of research and development expenses and include costs associated with third-party contractors. We outsource a substantial portion of our clinical trial activities, utilizing external entities such as contract research organizations, or CROs, independent clinical investigators, and other third-party service providers to assist us with the execution of our clinical studies.

Clinical activities which relate principally to clinical sites and other administrative functions to manage our clinical trials are performed primarily by CROs. CROs typically perform most of the start-up activities for our trials, including document preparation, site identification, screening and preparation, pre-study visits, training, and program management.

Clinical trial and pre-clinical trial expenses include regulatory and scientific consultants’ compensation and fees, research expenses, purchase of materials, cost of manufacturing of the oral insulin capsules, payments for patient recruitment and treatment, costs related to the maintenance of our registered patents, costs related to the filings of patent applications, as well as salaries and related expenses of research and development staff.

During the three months ended November 30, 2013, research and development expenses totaled $750,510, compared to $392,626 for the three months ended November 30, 2012. The increase is mainly attributable to the progress in Phase 2a clinical trials as well as to the increase in stock based compensation costs, which during the three months ended November 30, 2013 totaled $177,830, as compared to $78,438 during the three months ended November 30, 2012.
 
Government grants
 
In May 2013, Oramed Ltd. was granted a fourth grant amounting to a total net amount of NIS 975,000 (approximately $265,000) from the Office of the Chief Scientist of the Ministry of Industry, Trade and Labor of Israel, or OCS, which was designated for research and development expenses for the period of January 2013 to December 2013. We used the funds to support further research and development and clinical studies of our oral insulin capsule and oral GLP-1 analog.

In the three months ended November 30, 2013, we recognized research and development grants in an amount of $66,547, and in the three months ended November 30, 2012, we recognized research and development grants in an amount of $22,378.  As of November 30, 2013, we had no contingent liabilities to the OCS.
 
General and administrative expenses
 
General and administrative expenses include the salaries and related expenses of our management, consulting costs, legal and professional fees, traveling, business development costs, insurance expenses and other general costs.

For the three months ended November 30, 2013, general and administrative expenses totaled $417,727 compared to $339,213 for the three months ended November 30, 2012. The increase in costs incurred related to general and administrative activities during the three months ended November 30, 2013 reflects an increase in costs relating to public relations expenses. During the three months ended November 30, 2013, as part of our general and administrative expenses, we incurred $25,759 related to stock options granted to employees and consultants, as compared to $139,770 during the three months ended November 30, 2012.
 
Financial (income) expense, net
 
Net financial expense decreased from net expense of $226,914 for the three months ended November 30, 2012 to net income of $43,917 for the November 30, 2013. The decrease is mainly due to the decrease of warrant liabilities attributable to warrants held by Regals Fund LP and corresponding increase in stockholders’ equity on November 29, 2012, as a result of the removal of the anti-dilution provisions of the warrants, which resulted in a cost of $296,982, and from an increase in interest income on available cash and cash equivalents primarily due to the increase in cash and cash equivalents balance that resulted from a public offering completed in July 2013.
 
Other comprehensive income
 
Subsequent increase in the fair value of available for sale securities previously written down as impaired for the three months ended November 30, 2013 of $5,322 resulted from the increase in fair value of the ordinary shares of D.N.A Biomedical Solutions Ltd ("D.N.A") that we hold. Reclassification adjustments for gains included in net loss for the three months ended November 30, 2013 of $18,454, resulted from the sale of 1,025,989 of our D.N.A ordinary shares in October and November 2013. Unrealized gains on available for sale securities for the three months ended November 30, 2013 of $43,902, resulted from the increase in fair value of our D.N.A ordinary shares.

Liquidity and capital resources
 
From inception through November 30, 2013, we have incurred losses in an aggregate amount of $23,247,909. During that period we have financed our operations through several private placements of our common stock, as well as a public offering of our common stock in July 2013, raising a total of $20,859,553, net of transaction costs. In December 2013 we raised approximately $14,890,000, net of transactions costs, in additional public offering.  We will seek to obtain additional financing through similar sources in the future as needed. As of November 30, 2013, we had $1,370,753 of available cash, $5,459,254 of short term bank deposits and $962,392 of marketable securities. Marketable securities are presented at fair value and their realization is subject to certain limitations if sold through the market, and we are therefore exposed to market risk. There is no assurance that at the time of sale of the marketable securities the price per share will be the same or higher, nor that we will be able to sell all of the securities at once given the volume of securities we hold. We anticipate that we will require approximately $8.1 million to finance our activities during the 12 months following November 30, 2013.
 
Management continues to evaluate various financing alternatives for funding future research and development activities and general and administrative expenses through fund raising in the public or private equity markets. Although there is no assurance that we will be successful with those initiatives, management believes that it will be able to secure the necessary financing as a result of ongoing financing discussions with third party investors and existing stockholders, future public offerings, and additional funding from the OCS.
 
During the three month period ended November 30, 2013, cash and cash equivalents decreased to $1,370,753 from the $2,272,228 reported as of August 31, 2013, which is due to the reasons described below.
 
Operating activities used cash of $748,708 in the three months ended November 30, 2013, as compared to $792,826 used in the three months November 30, 2012. Cash used for operating activities in the three months ended November 30, 2013 primarily consisted of net loss resulting from research and development and general and administrative expenses, partially offset by stock based compensation adjustments, while cash used by operating activities in the three months ended November 30, 2012, primarily consisted of net loss resulting from research and development and general and administrative expenses partially offset by stock based compensation adjustments and exchange of warrants.

During the three month period ended November 30, 2013, we received $124,784 in OCS grants towards our research and development expenses, of which $66,547 was recognized during such period and $58,237 was recognized in the year ended August 31, 2013. In the three months ended November 30, 2012, we did not receive any grants from the OCS.  The amounts that were recognized but not received during the three months ended November 30, 2012, were received from the OCS during fiscal year 2013. The OCS has supported our activity in the past three years.

Investing activities used cash of $162,187 in the three months ended November 30, 2013, as compared to $454,227 that was provided in the three months ended November 30, 2012. Cash used in investing activities in the three months ended November 30, 2013 consisted primarily of the acquisition of short-term bank deposits.  Cash provided by investing activities in the three months ended November 30, 2012 consisted primarily of proceeds from the sale of our investment in Entera Bio Ltd.
 
We did not receive or use any cash in connection with financing activities in the three months ended November 30, 2013, as compared to $1,458,436 cash provided by financing activities during the three months ended November 30, 2012, consisted of proceeds from our issuance of common stock and warrants.

Off-balance sheet arrangements
 
As of November 30, 2013, we had no off balance sheet arrangements that have had or that we expect would be reasonably likely to have a future material effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.
 
Planned Expenditures
 
The estimated expenses referenced herein are in accordance with our business plan. Since our technology is still in the development stage, it can be expected that there will be changes in some budgetary items. Our planned expenditures for the twelve months beginning December 1, 2013 are as follows:

In December 2012 and April 2013, we filed IND applications with the FDA for our orally ingested insulin and we are conducting, or planning to conduct, further clinical studies with our oral exenatide capsule and the combination therapy, respectively, and others.  Our ability to complete these expected activities is dependent on several major factors including the ability to attract sufficient financing on terms acceptable to us and receiving additional grants from the OCS.
