CONTENTS

 

This Report of Foreign Private Issuer on Form 6-K (this “Form 6-K”) is being furnished by Sapiens International Corporation N.V. (“Sapiens” or the “Company”) to the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for the purposes of: (i) furnishing, as Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 6-K, interim unaudited consolidated financial statements as of, and for the six month period ended, June 30, 2020; (ii) furnishing, as Exhibit 99.2 to this Form 6-K, Operating and Financial Review and Prospects, which reviews Sapiens’ results of operations and financial condition as of, and for the six month period ended, June 30, 2020; and (iii) furnishing Interactive Data File disclosure as Exhibit 101 in accordance with Rule 405 of Regulation S-T promulgated by the SEC.

 

Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2 to this Report on Form 6-K shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference into Sapiens’ registration statement on Form F-3 (SEC File No. 333-232599).

 

Pursuant to Rule 406T of Regulation S-T, the Interactive Data Files in Exhibit 101 hereto are deemed not filed or part of a registration statement or prospectus for purposes of Sections 11 or 12 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, are deemed not filed for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and otherwise are not subject to liability under those sections.

 

Third Quarter 2020 Preliminary Financial Results

 

In addition, while complete financial information and operating data are not yet available, Sapiens is providing preliminary estimates of the results of operations that it expects to report for the quarter ended September 30, 2020 disclosed in good faith based upon Sapiens’ internal estimates for the quarter ended September 30, 2020. The Company’s actual results may differ materially from these estimates due to the completion of its quarter-end closing procedures, final adjustments and other developments that may arise between now and the time the consolidated financial results for its third quarter are finalized. As a result, these estimates are preliminary and unaudited, may change and constitute forward-looking information and, as a result, are subject to risks and uncertainties. All percentage comparisons to the same period in the prior year are based on the midpoint of the range provided below.

 

Subject to the above, the following are Sapiens’ preliminary estimates for the three months ended September 30, 2020:

 

GAAP revenue between $96.1 million and $97.3 million.

 

Non-GAAP revenue between $96.5 million and $97.5 million, representing a 17.4% increase to the mid point of this range from $82.6 million in revenue in the corresponding prior year period.

 

GAAP operating profit between $10.9 million and $12.1 million.

 

Non-GAAP operating profit between $16.6 million and $17.2 million, representing a 24.8% increase to the mid-point of this range from $13.5 million in operational profit in the corresponding prior year period.

 

Reconciliation of revenue and operating profit between GAAP and Non-GAAP are shown in the table below.

The estimates above represent the most current information available to Sapiens’ management and do not present all necessary information for an understanding of the Company’s financial condition as of and the results of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2020. The Company has provided a range for the preliminary results described above primarily because its financial closing procedures for the three months ended September 30, 2020 are not yet complete. As a result, there is a possibility that the Company’s final results for such period will vary from these preliminary estimates. The Company currently expects that its final results will be within the ranges described above. It is possible, however, that the Company’s final results will not be within the ranges we currently estimate. The estimates for the three months ended September 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of any future period and should be read together with “Risk Factors,” “Forward-Looking Statements,” “Operating and Financial Review and Prospects” and the Company’s consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2019, as well as the interim unaudited consolidated financial statements as of, and for the six month period ended, June 30, 2020 included as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and Operating and Financial Review and Prospects, which reviews Sapiens’ results of operations and financial condition as of, and for the six month period ended, June 30, 2020 included as Exhibit 99.2 hereto.

 

The foregoing preliminary consolidated financial data has been prepared by, and is the responsibility of, the Company’s management and has not been reviewed or audited by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. Accordingly, the Company’s independent auditors do not express an opinion or any other form of assurance with respect to this preliminary data.

 

The Company expects its closing procedures with respect to the three months ended September 30, 2020 to be completed in November 2020. Accordingly, the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the three months ended September 30, 2020 will not be available until November 2020.

 

The Company believes that it has navigated the difficult economic conditions posed by the COVID-19 pandemic in a manner that has enabled it to continue to successfully grow its business on the revenue and profit level through the first nine months of 2020. While difficult economic conditions remain, the Company believes that the positive tailwinds and momentum on revenue and profit in its business will continue further. The Company expects to provide guidance for the full year 2020 in its third quarter earnings release.

Forward-Looking Statements

 

Some of the statements in this Form 6-K may constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, Section 21E of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 and the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Words such as “will,” “expects,” “believes” and similar expressions are used to identify these forward-looking statements (although not all forward-looking statements include such words). These forward-looking statements, are made on the basis of management’s current views and assumptions with respect to future events. Any forward-looking statement is not a guarantee of future performance and actual results could differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statement. There are important factors that could cause Sapiens’ actual results to differ materially from the results expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to risks associated with market conditions; the COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic, which may last longer than expected and materially adversely affect Sapiens’ results of operations; the degree of Sapiens’ success in Sapiens’ plans to leverage Sapiens’ global footprint to grow Sapiens’ sales; the degree of Sapiens’ success in integrating the companies that Sapiens has acquired through the implementation of Sapiens’ M&A growth strategy; the lengthy development cycles for Sapiens’ solutions, which may frustrate Sapiens’ ability to realize revenues and/or profits from Sapiens’ potential new solutions; Sapiens’ lengthy and complex sales cycles, which do not always result in the realization of revenues; the degree of Sapiens’ success in retaining Sapiens’ existing customers or competing effectively for greater market share; difficulties in successfully planning and managing changes in the size of Sapiens’ operations; the frequency of the long-term, large, complex projects that Sapiens performs that involve complex estimates of project costs and profit margins, which sometimes change mid-stream; the challenges and potential liability that heightened privacy laws and regulations pose to Sapiens’ business; occasional disputes with clients, which may adversely impact Sapiens’ results of operations and Sapiens’ reputation; various intellectual property issues related to Sapiens’ business; potential unanticipated product vulnerabilities or cybersecurity breaches of Sapiens’ or Sapiens’ customers’ systems; risks related to the insurance industry in which Sapiens’ clients operate; risks associated with Sapiens’ global sales and operations, such as changes in regulatory requirements, wide-spread viruses and epidemics like the recent novel coronavirus outbreak, or fluctuations in currency exchange rates; and risks related to Sapiens’ principal location in Israel and Sapiens’ status as a Cayman Islands company.

 

While Sapiens believes such forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, should one or more of the underlying assumptions prove incorrect, or these risks or uncertainties materialize, Sapiens’ actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied in this Form 6-K. Other important factors that could cause actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those contemplated in this Form 6-K can be found under the captions “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in Sapiens’ Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2019, and in subsequent reports and registration statements filed from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

Although Sapiens believes that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, Sapiens cannot guarantee that future results, levels of activity, performance and events and circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements will be achieved or will occur. Except as required by law, Sapiens’ undertakes no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements for any reason after the date of this annual report, to conform these statements to actual results or to changes in Sapiens’ expectations.

In March 2020, the World Health Organization categorized the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) as a pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic has rapidly changed market and economic conditions globally, impacting the Company's customers, employees, as well the Company' s business results of operations, although the COVID-19 has not had a material negative impact on the Company's business to date. The Company remains focused on protecting the health and wellbeing of its employees and the communities in which it operates, while assuring the continuity of the Company's business operations.

  

NOTE 2: SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2020, and consolidated statements of operations, the consolidated statements of comprehensive income and the consolidated statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2020, as well as the statement of changes in shareholders’ equity for the six months ended June 30, 2020, are unaudited. These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2020, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2020.

 

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and accompanying notes for the year ended December 31, 2019. The significant accounting policies applied in the annual financial statements of the Company as of December 31, 2019, are applied consistently in these consolidated financial statements except for the policies noted below which changed as a result of the adoption of Topic 326.

NOTE 2: SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.)

 

Trade Receivables and Allowances

 

Accounts receivable are recorded and carried at the original invoiced amount less an allowance for any potential uncollectible amounts. The Company makes estimates of expected credit losses for the allowance for doubtful accounts in respect of trade receivables and unbilled receivables based upon our assessment of various factors, including historical experience, the age of the accounts receivable balances, credit quality of our customers, current economic conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions, and other factors that may affect our ability to collect from customers. Estimated credit loss allowance is recorded as general and administrative expenses on our condensed consolidated statements of income. As of June 30, 2020, $45,943 of trade receivables is presented net of an allowance of $1,317.

 

a. Recently adopted accounting pronouncements:

 

On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, using the modified retrospective transition method. Upon adoption, the Company changed its impairment model to utilize a forward-looking current expected credit losses (CECL) model in place of the incurred loss methodology for financial instruments measured at amortized cost, including trade receivables.

 

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Accounting for Goodwill Impairment (“ASU 2017-04”). ASU 2017-04 eliminates Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test, which requires the calculation of the implied fair value of goodwill by assigning the fair value of a reporting unit to all of its assets and liabilities as if that reporting unit had been acquired in a business combination. Instead, an entity will compare the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount and recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value. ASU 2017-04 is effective for annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company adopted ASU 2017-04 as of January 1, 2020 with no material impact on its condensed interim consolidated financial statements.

 

b. Principles of consolidation:

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its majority-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.

 

Non-controlling interests of subsidiaries represent the non-controlling shareholders’ share of the total comprehensive income (loss) of the subsidiaries and fair value of the net assets upon the acquisition of the subsidiaries. The non-controlling interests are presented in equity separately from the equity attributable to the equity holders of the Company.

c. Use of estimates:

 

The preparation of the condensed interim consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions. The Company’s management believes that the estimates, judgments and assumptions used are reasonable based upon information available at the time they are made. These estimates, judgments and assumptions can affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

NOTE 3: CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS

 

a. Acquisition of sum.cumo

 

On February 6, 2020 (the “Acquisition Date”), Sapiens completed the acquisition of all outstanding shares of sum.cumo GmbH (“sum.cumo”), a German company. sum.cumo services insurers in the DACH region, helping them to achieve digital transformation of set up their existing business models or to design entirely new business models based on pure digital processes. sum.cumo’s experts in consulting, user experience, marketing and technology enable the region’s insurers to launch highly automated platforms well suited for e-commerce and real-time processing of transactions.

 

In connection with the Company’s acquisition of sum.cumo, on February 6, 2020, the Company issued an aggregate of 173,005 RSUs to ten employees of sum.cumo in connection with the acquisition. The value of these grants was not included in the purchase price of sum.cumo, since their vesting is subject to both continued employment and other performance criteria. In addition, sum.cumo’s senior executives have retention-based payments over three years (2020-2023) of up to EUR 2,350. These payments are subject to continued employment, and therefore were not included in the purchase price. Acquisition related costs amounted to $540, and are presented under selling, marketing, general and administrative in the Company’s consolidated statements of income. The results of sum.cumo’s operations have been included in the consolidated financial statements from the acquisition date.

NOTE 3: CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS (Cont.)

 

The table below presents the preliminary fair value that was allocated to sum.cumo’s assets and liabilities based upon fair values as determined by the Company. The valuation process to determine the fair values is not yet complete. The Company estimated the preliminary fair value of acquired assets and liabilities as of the effective time of the acquisition of sum.cumo based on information currently available, and continues to adjust those estimates upon refinement of market participant assumptions for integrating businesses, among other relevant considerations.

 

Net assets (including cash of $ 981)   $ 1,447  
Intangible assets     9,730  
Deferred taxes     (3,211 )
Goodwill     15,068  
         
Net assets acquired   $ 23,034  

 

The goodwill resulted from the acquisition of sum.cumo is primarily attributable to sales growth from future products, new customers and potential synergy with Sapiens, as well as certain intangible assets that do not qualify for separate recognition.

 

Revenues and net income of sum.cumo included in the Company’s consolidated statements of income for the six months ended June 30, 2020 (unaudited) amounted to $9,750 and $385, respectively.

 

b. Other acquisition

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we completed an additional acquisition for a total consideration of approximately $1.7 million. The valuation process to determine the fair values of the acquired intangibles as part of this acquisition is not yet complete.

 

Revenues and net income attributed to this certain acquisition included in the Company’s consolidated statements of income for the six months ended June 30, 2020 (unaudited) were immaterial.

NOTE 4: REVENUE RECOGNITION

 

The Company implements the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”).

 

On most occasions, the Company generates revenues from sales of software licenses which include significant implementation and customization services. Such software licenses and implementation and customization services are not considered distinct performance obligations and are accounted for as one performance obligation. In addition, the Company generates revenues from post implementation consulting services and maintenance services.

 

Remaining performance obligations represent contracted revenue that has not yet been recognized, which includes deferred revenue and amounts that will be invoiced and recognized as revenue in future periods. The aggregate amount of consideration allocated to performance obligations either not satisfied or partially unsatisfied from fixed price projects and post contract support services was approximately $179 million as of June 30, 2020. The Company expects to recognize approximately 47% in the remainder of 2020 from remaining performance obligations as of June 30, 2020 and the remainder in 2021 and thereafter. Remaining performance obligations include the remaining non-cancelable, committed and fixed portion of these contracts for their entire duration. The remaining performance obligations related to post-production professional services contracts that are on a Time and Materials (“T&M”) basis were excluded, as the Company elected to apply the relevant practical expedient in accordance with ASC 606.

NOTE 4: REVENUE RECOGNITION (Cont.)

 

Trade receivable are recorded when the right to consideration becomes unconditional, and an invoice is issued to the customer. Unbilled receivables related to the Company’s contractual right to consideration for services performed and not yet invoiced.

Billing terms and conditions generally vary by contract type. Amounts are billed as work progresses in accordance with agreed-upon contractual terms, either at periodic intervals (e.g., monthly or quarterly) or upon achievement of contractual milestones.

 

Deferred revenues represent contract liabilities, and include unearned amounts received under contracts with customers and not yet recognized as revenues.

NOTE 5: LEASES

 

The Company leases substantially all of its office space and vehicles under operating leases. The Company’s leases have original lease periods expiring between 2020 and 2029. Some leases include one or more options to renew. The Company does not assume renewals in its determination of the lease term unless the renewals are deemed to be reasonably certain at lease commencement. Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise the following: the fixed non-cancellable lease payments, payments for optional renewal periods where it is reasonably certain the renewal period will be exercised, and payments for early termination options unless it is reasonably certain the lease will not be terminated early.

 

Under Topic 842, all leases with durations greater than 12 months, including non-cancellable operating leases, are now recognized on the balance sheet. The aggregated present value of lease agreements is recorded as a long-term asset titled Right of Use (“ROU”) assets. The corresponding lease liabilities are split between operating lease liabilities between and long-term liabilities.

NOTE 9: FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

 

FASB ASC No. 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value. Fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received for selling an asset or paid for the transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or a liability. A three-tier fair value hierarchy is established as a basis for considering such assumptions and for inputs used in the valuation methodologies in measuring fair value:

 

Level 1 Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible on the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;

 

Level 2 Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and

 

Level 3 Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (supported by little or no market activity).

 

The Company measures its foreign currency derivative contracts. Derivative contracts are classified within Level II as the valuation inputs are based on quoted prices and market observable data of similar instruments. 

 

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and trade payables approximates their fair value, due to the short-term maturities of such instruments.

Recent Developments

 

COVID-19

 

In March 2020, the World Health Organization categorized the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) as a pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic has rapidly changed market and economic conditions globally, impacting our customers, employees, as well as our business results of operations, although the COVID 19 has not had a material negative impact on our business so far. We remain focused on protecting the health and wellbeing of our employees and the communities in which we operate, while assuring the continuity of our business operations.

 

As a result of several cost saving initiatives, as well as our experienced management team, we have been able to respond quickly to our customers’ changing business demands in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic. While we continue to assess the impact from the pandemic, we are unable to accurately predict the full impact of the pandemic on our business, results of operations, financial position and cash flows due to numerous uncertainties, including the severity of the disease, the duration of the outbreak, additional actions that may be taken by governmental authorities, the further impact on the business of our customers and partners, and other factors described in “Risk Factors” in our annual report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2019 filed with the SEC on April 7, 2020 and this report Operating and Financial Review and Prospects.

 

Raising of $60m in Non-Convertible Debentures

 

In June 2020, we extended the Series B Debentures and raised an additional NIS 210 million (approximately $60.2 million) in principal amount linked to US dollars, payable in six equal annual payments of approximately $9.9 million, on January 1 of each of the years 2021 through 2026. The outstanding principal amount of the Series B Debentures will bear a fixed interest rate of 3.37% per annum, payable on January 1 and July 1 of each of the years 2020 through 2025, with one final interest payment on January 1, 2026.

 

Following the raise of the additional NIS 210 million in Series B Debentures, a $20 million bank loan which was taken on March 18, 2020 from a commercial bank. was fully repaid on June 9, 2020.

 

Acquisition of Delphi Technology Inc.

 

In July 2020, we consummated the acquisition of Delphi Technology Inc., or Delphi, a leading vendor of software solutions for property & casualty (P&C) carriers, with a focus on the medical professional liability (MPL)/healthcare professional liability (HCPL) markets (sometimes referred to as “medical malpractice”) for a total consideration of up to $19.6 million in cash.

Cost of revenues consist primarily of costs associated with providing services to customers, including compensation expense to employees and subcontractors, travel expenses, as well as amortization of acquired technologies and depreciation. Our cost of revenues increased by $14.0 million, or 14.7%, to $109.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to $95.1 million for the corresponding period of 2019. The increase in absolute cost of revenues was primarily attributable to business acquisitions. The remainder of the increase is attributed to our need to support our current and future overall organic business growth. Cost of revenues decreased as a percentage of our revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2020, to 59.4%, as compared to 60.8% during the corresponding period of 2019. The 1.4% decrease in the cost of revenues as a percentage of our revenues was primarily attributable to the impact of COVID-19, which resulted in a decrease in our cost of revenues, which is mainly attributable to a reduction in our compensation-related expenses to employees (primarily accrual for vacation), subcontractor expenses, as well as travel expenses, which was offset by excess facility lease costs. The decrease in our cost of revenues as a percentage of our revenues can further be attributed to a continuous increase in our offshore activities during the past several years.

Our gross profit increased by $13.2 million, or 21.6%, to $74.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to $61.3 million for the corresponding period of 2019. This increase was primarily attributable to the absolute increase in our revenues by $27.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the corresponding period of 2019, as well as due to the factors described above.

 

Operating expenses

 

The amount of each category of operating expense for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2020, respectively, as well as the percentage change in each such expense category between such periods, and the percentage of our revenues constituted by our total operating expenses in each such period, is provided in the below table:

Research and development, or R&D, are primarily comprised of compensation expense to employees and subcontractors, net of capitalization of software development costs. Our gross R&D expenses (before capitalization of eligible software development costs), increased by 9.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the corresponding period in 2019. That increase of $1.9 million, or 9.1%, was attributable to the increase in costs incurred with respect to R&D for the six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the corresponding period of 2019, particularly in our digital offerings. Capitalization of software development costs accounted for $2.7 million of our R&D expenses, net for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to $3.0 million in the corresponding period of 2019, constituting a non-material change from one such period to the other.

 

Selling, marketing, general and administrative, or SG&A, expenses, which are primarily comprised of compensation expenses for employees and subcontractors, were $32 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to $26.0 in the corresponding period of 2019, representing an increase of $6 million. The increase in our SG&A expenses can be attributed mainly to business acquisitions, which contributed a total of $3.6 million towards that increase. An additional increase in our SG&A expenses can be attributed to recruitments made in our global sales team during the six months ended June 30, 2020. As a percentage of total revenues, our SG&A increased from 16.7% in the six months ended June 30, 2019 to 17.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2020, which can be attributed to the various factors described above.

 

Operating income

 

Operating income and operating income as a percentage of total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2020, respectively, as well as the percentage change in operating income between such periods, were as follows:

Operating income   $ 17,531       29.4 %   $ 22,681  
Percentage of total revenues     11.2 %             12.4 %

 

The increase in our operating income during the six months ended June 30, 2020 relative to the corresponding period of 2019, and the increase in operating income as a percentage of our revenues, as reflected in the above table, were attributable to the various gross profit and operating expenses trends described above, most significantly the increase in our revenues, as well as the increase in our offshore activities and several costs savings related to COVID-19, as described above, during the first six months of 2020, which contributed to our increased profitability in 2020.

 

Financial expenses, net

 

The amount of our financial expenses, net, for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2020, respectively, and the percentage of our revenues for those respective periods constituted by such amounts, as well as the percentage change in such amounts between such periods, were as follows:

Financial expenses, net, were $1.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to $1.5 million in the corresponding period in 2019, constituting a non-material change from one such period to the other.

 

Taxes on income

 

Taxes on income, both as a dollar value and as a percentage of income before taxes on income, for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2020, respectively, as well as the percentage change in the amount of taxes on income between such periods, were as follows:

For the six months ended June 30, 2020, we recognized a net tax on income of $4.9 million, compared to $4.0 million in 2019. The increase in taxes on income is attributable to a higher taxable income for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the corresponding period of 2019.

 

Our effective income tax rate varies from period to period as a result of the various jurisdictions in which we operate, as each jurisdiction has its own system of taxation (not only with respect to the nominal rate, but also with respect to the allowance of deductions, credits and other benefits). We record a valuation allowance if we believe that it is more likely than not that the deferred income taxes regarding the loss carry forwards and other temporary differences, on which a valuation allowance has been provided, will not be realized in the foreseeable future. We do not recognize certain of the deferred tax assets relating to the net operating losses of certain of our subsidiaries worldwide due to the uncertainty of the realization of such tax benefits in the foreseeable future.

 

Net income attributable to Sapiens shareholders

 

The amount of net income attributable to Sapiens shareholders and such amount as a percentage of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2020, respectively, as well as the percentage change in net income attributable to Sapiens shareholders between such periods, were as follows:

Net income attributable to Sapiens shareholders   $ 11,995       34.4 %   $ 16,117  
Percentage of total revenues     7.7 %             8.8 %

 

As a percentage of total revenues, our net income attributable to Sapiens shareholders increased from 7.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2019 to 8.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2020, reflecting the cumulative effect of all of the above described line items from our statements of income.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

To date, we have substantially satisfied our capital and liquidity needs through cash flows from operations. From time to time, we further satisfied our liquidity needs through issuance of our equity and debt securities, and bank loans.

 

Cash flows provided from operations were $26.1 million and $20.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2020, respectively. We used $3.6 million and $5.0 million of cash in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2020, respectively. We used $10.0 million and generated $45.4 million of cash in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2020, respectively. As of December 31, 2019 and June 30, 2020, we had $66.3 million and $128.0 million, respectively, of cash and cash equivalents, and $42.3 million and $75.9 million, respectively, of working capital.

 

We expect that we will continue to generate positive cash flows from operations on an annual basis, although this may fluctuate on a quarterly basis. We believe that based on our current operating forecast, the combination of existing working capital and expected cash flows from operations will be sufficient to finance our ongoing operations for the next twelve months.

 

In June 2020, the Company extended the Series B Debentures and raised an additional NIS 210 million (approximately $60.2 million) in principal amount linked to US dollars, payable in six equal annual payments of approximately $9.9 million, on January 1 of each of the years 2021 through 2026. The outstanding principal amount of the Series B Debentures will bear a fixed interest rate of 3.37% per annum, payable on January 1 and July 1 of each of the years 2020 through 2025, with one final interest payment on January 1, 2026.

 

On March 18, 2020, we entered into a loan agreement with HSBC Bank plc. Pursuant to the loan agreement, we borrowed $20 million. Following the raise of the additional Series B Debentures, the loan was fully repaid on June 9, 2020.

Cash Flows

 

The following summary of cash flows for the periods indicated has been derived from our unaudited, consolidated financial statements appended to our Report of Foreign Private Issuer on Form 6-K furnished to the SEC on October 13, 2020, to which this “Operating and Financial Review and Prospects” is appended:

 

 

    Six months ended June 30,    
    2019     2020    
      (in thousands)    
Net cash provided by operating activities   $ 26,057     $ 20,520  
Net cash used in investing activities     (4,980 )     (3,605 )  
Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities   (10,010 )     45,421    

  

Operating Activities

 

We derived positive cash flows from operating activities of $26.1 million and $20.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2020, respectively. This decrease in cash flows provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2020 relative to the corresponding period of 2019 resulted primarily from a change in our trade and unbilled receivables balance in the amount of $12.3, partially offset by an increase in net income of $4.2 million, from $12 million to $16.2 million, which was due to the factors described above, as well as an increase in depreciation and amortization of $1.4 million and an increase in stock-based compensation expenses of $0.6 million.

 

 Investing Activities

 

Our investing activities consist of capitalized software development as well as capital expenditures to purchase property and equipment, and payments for business acquisitions.

 

Net cash used in investing activities increased to $3.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to $5.0 million in the corresponding period ended June 30, 2019, constituting a non-material change from one such period to the other.

  

Financing Activities

 

We derived positive cash flows from financing activities of $45.4 million of cash during the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to using $10.0 million of cash in the corresponding period of 2019. Cash generated in the six months ended June 30, 2020 was primarily attributable to the additional issuance of Series B Debentures in the amount of $60.2 million and proceeds from employee stock options exercised in the amount of $2.3 million, offset by cash used for distribution of dividend in the amount of $6.6 million.
