The InspireMD Shareholders transferred 5,725,962 ordinary shares of InspireMD (which represented 91.7% of InspireMD’s issued and outstanding capital stock immediately prior to the closing of the Share Exchange) to the Company in exchange for 46,471,907 shares of the Company’s common stock. Separately, the holders of 516,792 ordinary shares of InspireMD transferred such shares to the Company in exchange for 4,194,756 shares of the Company’s common stock (collectively, the “Share Exchange”).
|
|
·
|
The Company assumed all of InspireMD’s obligations under InspireMD’s outstanding stock options. Immediately prior to the Share Exchange, InspireMD had outstanding stock options to purchase an aggregate of 937,256 shares of its ordinary shares, which outstanding options became options to purchase an aggregate of 7,606,770 shares of common stock of the Company after giving effect to the Share Exchange. Neither the Company nor InspireMD had any other options to purchase shares of capital stock outstanding immediately prior to the closing of the Share Exchange.
|
|
·
|
Three-year warrants to purchase up to 125,000 ordinary shares of InspireMD at an exercise price of $10 per share were assumed by the Company and converted into warrants to purchase 1,014,500 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $1.23 per share.
|
|
·
|
Lynn Briggs resigned as the sole officer and director of the Company, and simultaneously with the Share Exchange, a new board of directors and new officers were appointed for the Company. The Company’s new board of directors consists of Ofir Paz and Asher Holzer. In addition, immediately following the Share Exchange, the Company appointed Ofir Paz as its chief executive officer, Asher Holzer as its president and chairman of the board of directors, and Craig Shore as its chief financial officer, secretary and treasurer.

|
given its wide surface coverage of the stent, the mesh diffuses the pressure and the impact on deployment exerted by the stent on the arterial wall and reduces the injury to the vessel and the rate of restenosis;
|
|
·
|
it prevents plaque dislodgement and blocks debris from entering the bloodstream during and post procedure (called embolic showers);
|
|
·
|
when drug coated, the mesh delivers better coverage and uniform drug distribution on the arterial wall and therefore should reduce the dosage of the active ingredient when compared to approved drug-eluting stents on the market;
|
|
·
|
it promotes smooth and stable endothelial cell growth, which is essential for prompt healing and reduces the risk of cell detachment that causes late thrombosis; and
|
|
·
|
it maintains the standards of a conventional stent and therefore should require little to no additional training by doctors.

Successfully commercialize MGuard
TM
Coronary with bio-stable mesh.
We have begun commercialization of MGuard
TM
Coronary with a bio-stable mesh in Europe, Asia and Latin America through our distributor network and we are aggressively pursuing additional registrations and contracts in
other counties such as Russia, Canada, South Korea, China, Belgium, the Netherlands and certain smaller countries in Latin America. By the time we begin marketing this product in the United States, we expect to have introduced the MGuard
TM
technology to clinics and interventional cardiologists around the world, and to have fostered brand name recognition and widespread adoption of MGuard
TM
Coronary. We plan to accomplish this by participating in national and international conferences, conducting and sponsoring clinical trials, publishing articles in scientific journals, holding local training sessions and conducting electronic media campaigns.
|
|
·
|
Successfully develop the next generation of MGuard
TM
stents.
While we market our MGuard
TM
Coronary with bio-stable mesh, we intend to develop the MGuard
TM
Coronary with a drug-eluting mesh. We are also working on our MGuard
TM
stents for peripheral and carotid. In addition, we released our cobalt-chromium version of MGuard
TM
, MGuard Prime™, in 2010, which we anticipate will replace MGuard
TM
over the next couple of years.
|
|
·
|
Continue to leverage MGuard
TM
technology to develop additional applications for interventional cardiologists and vascular surgeons.
In addition to the applications described above, we believe that we will eventually be able to utilize our proprietary technology to address imminent market needs for new product innovations to significantly improve patients’ care. We have secured intellectual property using our unique mesh technology in the areas of brain aneurism, treating bifurcated blood vessels and a new concept of distal protective devices. We believe these areas have a large growth potential given, in our view, that present solutions are far from satisfactory, and there is a significant demand for better patient care. We believe that our patents can be put into practice and that they will drive our growth at a later stage.
|
|
·
|
Work with world-renowned physicians to build awareness and brand recognition of MGuard
TM
portfolio of products.
We intend to work closely with leading cardiologists to evaluate and ensure the efficacy and safety of our products. We intend that some of these prominent physicians will serve on our Scientific Advisory Board, which is our advisory committee that advises our board of directors, and run clinical trials with the MGuard
TM
Coronary stent. We believe these individuals, once convinced of the MGuard
TM
Coronary stent’s superiority, will be invaluable assets in facilitating the widespread adoption of the stent. In addition, we plan to look to these cardiologists to generate and publish scientific data supporting our products, and to promote them at various conferences they attend.
|
|
·
|
Continue to protect and expand our portfolio of patents.
Our patents and their protection are critical to our success. We have filed ten separate patents for our MGuard
TM
technology in Canada, China, Europe, Israel, India, South Africa, and the United States, for an aggregate of 35 filed patents. We believe these patents cover all of our existing products, and can be useful for future technology.
We intend to continue patenting new technology as it is developed, and to actively pursue any infringement upon our patents.
|
|
·
|
Develop strategic partnerships.
We intend to partner with medical device, biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies to assist in the development and commercialization of our proprietary technology. We plan to partner with a company in the United States to guide products through FDA approval and to support the sale of MGuard
TM
stents in the United States.

9.1
|
You shall promptly notify the Company of any legal proceedings initiated against you and of all possible or threatened legal proceedings without delay following your first becoming aware thereof, however, your failure to notify the Company as foresaid shall not derogate from your right to be indemnified as provided herein except and to the extent that such failure to provide notice materially and adversely prejudices the Company’s ability to defend against such action.

|
|

|
|
9.5
|

|
Accounting principles
|
|
The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“US GAAP”).
|
|
b.
|
Use of estimates
|
|
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of sales 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 revenue recognition including provision for returns, legal contingencies, estimation of the fair value of share-based compensation and estimation of the fair value of a convertible loan.
|
c.
|
Functional currency
|
|
The currency of the primary economic environment in which the operations of the Company and its subsidiary are conducted is the U.S. dollar (“$” or “dollar”). Accordingly, the functional currency of the Company and of the subsidiary is the dollar.
|
d.
|
Principles of consolidation
|
|
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and of its Subsidiary. Intercompany transactions and balances, have been eliminated upon consolidation.
|
e.
|
Cash
and cash equivalents
|
|
The Group considers all highly liquid investments, which include short-term bank deposits (up to three months from date of deposit) that are not restricted as to withdrawal or use to be cash equivalents.
|
f.
|
Restricted cash
|
|
The Company maintains certain cash amounts restricted as to withdrawal or use, related mainly to long-term loan, see note 7. The restricted cash are denominated in U.S. dollars and NIS.
|
|
g.
|
Fair value measurement:
|
|
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e., the “exit price”) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
|
h.
|
Concentration of credit risk and allowance for doubtful accounts
|
|
Financial instruments that may potentially subject the Group to a concentration of credit risk consist of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash which are deposited in major financial institutions in Germany and Israel, and trade accounts receivable. The Group’s trade accounts receivable are derived from revenues earned from customers from various counties. The Group performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and, generally, requires no collateral from its customers. The Group also has a credit insurance policy for part of its customers. The Group maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts receivable based upon the expected ability to collect the accounts receivable. The Group reviews its allowance for doubtful accounts quarterly by assessing individual accounts receivable and all other balances based on historical collection experience and an economic risk assessment. If the Group determines that a specific customer is unable to meet its financial obligations to the Group, the Group provides an allowance for credit losses to reduce the receivable to the amount management reasonably believes will be collected. To mitigate risks the Group deposits cash and cash equivalents with high credit quality financial institutions.
|
|
Provisions for doubtful debts are netted against “Accounts receivable-trade.”
|
|
i.
|
Inventory
|
|
j.
|
Property, plant and equipment
|
|
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets: over three years for computers and other electronic equipment, five years for vehicles and seven to fifteen years for office furniture and equipment, and machinery and equipment (mainly seven years). Leasehold improvements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease, which is shorter than the estimated life of the improvements.
|
k.
|
Impairment of long-lived assets
|
|
l.
|
Revenue recognition
|
|
Revenue is recognized when delivery has occurred, evidence of an arrangement exists, title and risks and rewards for the products are transferred to the customer, collection is reasonably assured and when product returns can be reliably estimated. When product returns can be reliably estimated a provision is recorded, based on historical experience, and deducted from sales. The provision for sales returns and related costs are included in “Accounts payable and accruals - Other” under “current liabilities", and "Inventory on consignment", respectively.
|
|
When returns cannot be reliably estimated, both revenues and related direct costs are eliminated, as the products are deemed unsold. Accordingly, both related revenues and costs are deferred, and presented under "Deferred revenues" and "Inventory on consignment", respectively.

Newly issued accounting pronouncements
|
|
In October 2009, the FASB issued amendments to the accounting and disclosure for revenue recognition. These amendments, effective for fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010 (early adoption is permitted), modify the criteria for recognizing revenue in multiple element arrangements and require companies to develop a best estimate of the selling price to separate deliverables and allocate arrangement consideration using the relative selling price method. Additionally, the amendments eliminate the residual method for allocating arrangement considerations. The Company does not expect the standard to have material effect on its consolidated financial statements.
|
|
In January 2010, the FASB updated the “Fair Value Measurements Disclosures”. More specifically, this update will require (a) an entity to disclose separately the amounts of significant transfers in and out of Levels 1 and 2 fair value measurements and to describe the reasons for the transfers; and (b) information about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements to be presented separately (i.e. present the activity on a gross basis rather than net) in the reconciliation for fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 inputs). This update clarifies existing disclosure requirements for the level of disaggregation used for classes of assets and liabilities measured at fair value, and require disclosures about the valuation techniques and inputs used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements using Level 2 and Level 3 inputs. This will become effective as of the first interim or annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the gross presentation of the Level 3 roll forward information, which is required for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2010 and for interim reporting periods within those years. The adoption of the new guidance will not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
|
v.
|
Factoring of receivables
|
|
During 2010, the Company factored some of its trade receivables. The factoring was executed through banking institution on a recourse basis, and through other non-banking institute on a non-recourse basis. As of December 31, 2010 the Company did not have financial assets relates to such transaction.
|
|
The resulting costs were charged to “financial expenses-net”.
|
a.
|
The Company measures fair value and discloses fair value measurements for financial assets and liabilities. 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 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 and considers counterparty credit risk in its assessment of fair value.
|
|
b.
|
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and other accrued liabilities approximate their fair value either because these amounts are presented at fair value or due to the relatively short-term maturities of such instruments. The carrying amount of the Group’s other financial long-term assets and other financial long-term liabilities approximate their fair value.
|
|

Composition of assets, grouped by major classifications, is as follows:

|
|
Israeli labor law generally requires payment of severance pay upon dismissal of an employee or upon termination of employment in certain other circumstances.
|
|
Pursuant to section 14 of the Israeli Severance Compensation Act, 1963, some of the Company's employees are entitled to monthly deposits, at a rate of 8.33% of their monthly salary, made in their name with insurance companies. Payments in accordance with section 14 relieve the Company from any future severance payments in respect of those employees.
|
|
The severance pay liability of the Company to the rest of its employees, which reflects the undiscounted amount of the liability, is based upon the number of years of service and the latest monthly salary, and is partly covered by insurance policies and by regular deposits with recognized severance pay funds. The Company may only make withdrawals from the amounts funded for the purpose of paying severance pay. The severance pay expenses (income) were $14 thousands and $(7) thousands in the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Gain on amounts funded in respect of employee rights upon retirement totaled to $11 thousands and $10 thousands for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
