NOTE 12: | COVID-19 PANDEMIC IMPLICATIONS |
The COVID-19 pandemic, which originated in China in late 2019, has since spread across the globe and affected the economic condition of most, if not all, countries, including the United States, Israel and many countries in Europe. On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak a pandemic. While COVID-19 is still spreading and the final implications of the pandemic are difficult to estimate at this stage, it is clear that it has affected the lives of a large portion of the global population. As of March 31, 2021, the pandemic has caused repeated states of emergency to be declared in various countries, ongoing and extended travel restrictions have been imposed for several months, strict quarantines rules have been established and maintained for an extended period of time in a plethora of jurisdictions and various institutions and companies have been closed and rendered bankrupt. The Company is actively monitoring the pandemic and is taking any necessary measures to respond to the situation in cooperation with the various stakeholders. Due to the uncertainty surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company will continue to assess the situation, including government-imposed restrictions, market by market. It is not possible at this time to estimate the full impact that the COVID-19 pandemic could have on the Company’s business, the continued spread of COVID-19, and any additional measures taken by governments, health officials or by the Company in response to such spread, could have on the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition. The COVID-19 pandemic and mitigation measures have also negatively impacted global economic conditions, which, in turn, could adversely affect the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition. The extent to which the COVID-19 outbreak continues to impact the Company’s financial condition will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including new government actions or restrictions, new information that may emerge concerning the severity, longevity and impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on economic activity.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of March 31, 2021, we had current assets of $196 thousand consisting of $134 thousand in cash and cash equivalents, $21 thousand in trade receivables, $14 thousand in other accounts receivables and, $27 thousand in prepaid expenses.
We had $2,354 thousand in current liabilities consisting of $186 in other accounts payable and accrued liabilities, $54 Short term loan $10 trade payable, and $2,104 payable to our parent company.
As of December 31, 2020, we had current assets of $225 thousand consisting of $148 thousand in cash and cash equivalents, $20 thousand in other receivables, $15 thousand in trade receivables and $42 thousand in prepaid expenses. We had $2,303 thousand in current liabilities, which consisted of $177 in accounts payable and accrued liabilities, $22 trade payable, $2,054 payable to our parent company and $50 in Short term loan.
We had a negative working capital of $2,158 thousand and $2,078 thousand as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.
Our Current liabilities as of March 31, 2021 were $2,354 thousand compared to $2,303 thousand as of December 31, 2020.
During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we had negative cash flow from operations of $14 thousand which was mainly the result of a net loss of $80 thousand, offset by decrease in working capital of $66 thousand.

There are no limitations in the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation on the Company’s ability to borrow funds or raise funds through the issuance of shares of its common stock to affect a business combination. The Company’s limited resources and lack of having cash-generating business operations may make it difficult to borrow funds or raise capital. The Company’s limitations to borrow funds or raise funds through the issuance of restricted capital stock required to effect or facilitate a business combination may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition and future prospects, including the ability to complete a business combination.
Until such time as the Company can generate substantial revenues, the Company expects to finance its cash needs through a combination of the sale of its equity and/or convertible debt securities, debt financing and strategic alliances and collaborations. The Company does not have any committed external source of funds. To the extent that the Company raises additional capital through the sale of its equity and/or convertible debt securities, the ownership interest of its stockholders will be diluted, and the terms of these securities may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect the rights of our common stockholders. Debt financing, if available, may involve agreements that include covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions, such as incurring additional debt, making capital expenditures or declaring dividends. To the extent that debt financing ultimately proves to be available, any borrowing will subject us to various risks traditionally associated with indebtedness, including the risks of interest rate fluctuations and insufficiency of cash flow to pay principal and interest, including debt of an acquired business. If the Company raises funds through additional collaborations or strategic alliances with third parties, we may have to relinquish valuable rights to our future revenue streams and/or distribution arrangements. No assurance can be given that any future financing will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to the Company. If the Company is unable to raise additional funds through equity and/or debt financings when needed or on attractive terms, the Company may be required to delay, limit, reduce or terminate the operations of some or all of its business segments.

Going Concern:
The Company has incurred $80 in net losses for the three months ended March 31, 2021, has $2,158 stockholders’ deficit as of March 31, 2021 and $2,078 in total stockholders’ deficit as of December 31, 2020. Management expects the Company to continue to generate substantial operating losses and to continue to fund its operations primarily through utilization of its current financial resources and 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.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Not required for smaller reporting companies.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act as of March 31, 2021, the end of the period covered by this Report on Form 10-Q.` Based on such evaluation, due to the material weakness discussed below, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at a reasonable assurance level as of March 31, 2021.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
In connection with the preparation of our consolidated financial statements as of and for the period ended March 31, 2021, we have identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting. The material weakness was identified in the period-end financial reporting process, and is associated with our history as a private company and a material weakness is a deficiency or combination of deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our consolidated financial statements would not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. This deficiency could result in additional misstatements to our consolidated financial statements that would be material and would not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
We are currently not involved in any litigation that we believe could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations, except as set forth below. There is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation before or by any court, public board, government agency, self-regulatory organization or body pending or, to the knowledge of the executive officers of the Company, threatened against or affecting the Company, our Common Stock, our officers or directors in their capacities as such, in which an adverse decision could have a material adverse effect, other than as set forth below.

In June 2017, a lawsuit was filed with the Regional Labor Court in Tel Aviv (the “Tel Aviv Court”) against Emerald Israel, and other defendants, claiming certain damages in the total amount of approximately $225,000, under the assertion of wrongful termination by Emerald Israel. We believe these claims to be unsubstantiated and wholly without merit and accordingly filed our response with the Tel Aviv Court in October of 2017. The dispute was initially heard by the Tel Aviv Court on February 13, 2020. In a supplemental hearing on February 11, 2021, the plaintiff provided a certified confirmation of payment of approximately $14,668 by the National Insurance Institute of Israel for one month’s prior notice of termination, redemption of 16.8 days of vacation and severance pay. The plaintiff’s summaries were filed on March 11, 2021, and the defendant’s summaries will be filed until May 20, 2021.
There have been no material changes from the information set forth in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in the Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 16, 2021
