Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting

To the board of directors and shareholders of Pluri Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated
balance sheets of Pluri Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of June 30, 2022 and 2021, and the related consolidated
statements of operations, of changes in shareholders’ equity and of cash flows for the years then ended, including the related notes
(collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2022 and 2021, and the results of its operations
and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These consolidated financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial
statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United
States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and
the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits of these consolidated
financial statements in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.
The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part
of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing
an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess
the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures
that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the
consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide
a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matters
The critical audit matter communicated below is
a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated
to the audit committee and that (i) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and
(ii) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter
in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit
matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

Establishment of Plurinuva
As described in Note 1d to the consolidated
financial statements, on February 24, 2022, the Company established Plurinuva together with Tnuva for the purpose of developing
cultured meat products. Tnuva invested in Plurinuva $7.5 million for ordinary shares and warrants to purchase ordinary shares.
The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to the establishment of Plurinuva is a
critical audit matter are (i) the audit efforts to determine such a transaction was properly accounted for by the Company; and
(ii) involved the use of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge.
Addressing the matter involved performing procedures
and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures
included, among others, reading the agreements, public filings and the Company's minutes from meetings of the Board of Directors. We inquired
executive officers, key members and legal counsel of the Company, and the Audit Committee regarding the transaction. We researched accounting
alternatives to evaluate the Company's accounting approach. We involved a valuation professional, with specialized skills and knowledge,
who assisted in evaluating the valuation methodology which was included in the accounting analysis for the transaction. We analyzed the
impacts of the transaction on the Company's financial statements. In addition, we evaluated the overall sufficiency of audit evidence
obtained over the establishment of Plurinuva.

NOTE
1: - GENERAL
a.
Effective July 26, 2022, Pluri Inc., a Nevada
corporation (“Pluri”), changed its name from Pluristem Therapeutics Inc. The Company also changed its symbol on the Nasdaq
Global Market and Tel-Aviv Stock Exchange From “PSTI” to “PLUR”.
Pluri was incorporated on May 11, 2001. Pluri
has a wholly owned subsidiary, Pluri-Biotech Ltd. (formerly known as Pluristem Ltd.) (the “Subsidiary”), which is incorporated
under the laws of the State of Israel. In January 2020, the Subsidiary established a wholly owned subsidiary, Pluristem GmbH (the “German
Subsidiary”) which is incorporated under the laws of Germany. In January 2022, the Subsidiary established a subsidiary, Plurinuva
Ltd. (“Plurinuva”), which is incorporated under the laws of Israel, which followed the execution of the collaboration agreement
with Tnuva Food Industries – Agricultural Cooperative in Israel Ltd. (through its fully owned subsidiary, Tnuva Food-Tech Incubator
(2019), Limited Partnership (“Tnuva”)). Pluri, the Subsidiary, the German Subsidiary and Plurinuva are referred to as the
“Company” or “Pluri.” The Subsidiary, the German Subsidiary and Plurinuva are referred to as the “Subsidiaries.”
b.
The Company is a bio-technology company with an advanced cell-based technology platform, which operates in one business segment. The Company has developed a unique three-dimensional (“3D”) technology platform for cell expansion with an industrial scale in-house Good Manufacturing Practice cell manufacturing facility. Pluri currently uses its technology in the field of regenerative medicine and food tech and plans to utilize it in other industries and verticals that have a need for mass scale and cost-effective cell expansion platform such as agri-tech and biologics. Pluri is focused on the research, development and manufacturing of cell-based products, conducting clinical studies and the business development of cell therapeutics and cell-based technologies providing potential solutions for various fields.
c.
The Company
has incurred an accumulated deficit of approximately $ 371,263 and incurred recurring operating losses and negative cash flows from
operating activities since inception. As of June 30, 2022, the Company’s total shareholders’ equity amounted to $ 30,039 .
During the year ended June 30, 2022, the Company incurred losses of $ 41,242 and its negative cash flow from operating activities was
$ 36,501 .
As of June 30, 2022, the Company’s
cash position (cash and cash equivalents, short-term bank deposits, long-term bank deposits, restricted cash and restricted bank deposits)
totaled $ 56,657 . The Company plans to continue to finance its operations from its current resources, by entering into licensing or other
commercial agreements, from grants to support its research and development activities, and from sales of its equity securities and from
the proceeds received from the loan previously provided by the European Investment Bank (the “EIB”, see also note 7). The
Company’s management believes that its current resources, together with its existing operating plan, are sufficient for the Company
to meet its obligations as they come due at least for a period of twelve months from the date of the issuance of these consolidated financial
statements. There is no assurance, however, that the Company will be able to obtain an adequate level of financial resources that are
required for the long-term development and commercialization of its products.
d. On January 5, 2022, the Subsidiary entered into definitive agreements (the “Agreements”) with Tnuva pursuant to which the Subsidiary and Tnuva established Plurinuva, with the purpose of developing cultured meat products. Plurinuva received exclusive, global, royalty bearing licensing rights to use Pluri’s proprietary technology, intellectual property and knowhow in the field of cultured meat. Tnuva invested $ 7,500 in Plurinuva and received 187,500 of Plurinuva’s ordinary shares, representing 15.79 % of the Plurinuva share capital as of February 24, 2022 (the “Closing Date”). In addition, Tnuva received Warrants to invest up to an additional $ 7,500 over a period of twelve months following the Closing Date.

The First
Warrant issued to Tnuva permits Tnuva to purchase up to 125,000 ordinary shares of Plurinuva at an exercise price of $ 40.00 per
share, and has a term commencing on the Closing Date and ending at the earlier of (i) six months from the Closing Date, (ii) immediately
prior to and subject to the consummation of an initial public offering or acquisition of Plurinuva or (iii) the consummation of a financing
round with a non-affiliated investor. In addition, on the six month anniversary of the Closing Date, and provided that the First Warrant
has not expired, Plurinuva agreed to issue a Second Warrant to Tnuva which will permit Tnuva to purchase up to a number of ordinary shares
of Plurinuva, or the then most senior securities issued by Plurinuva, in consideration for such amount equal to 200 % of the remaining
balance of the aggregate purchase price of the First Warrant, provided that Tnuva exercises at least 62,500 ordinary shares
at a price per share of $ 40.00 , or $ 2,500 in the aggregate, of the First Warrant. The Second Warrant’s exercise price per share
equals $ 76.00 . The Second Warrant has a term commencing on the six month anniversary of the Closing Date and ending at the earlier of
(i) six months from its issuance, (ii) immediately prior to and subject to the consummation of an initial public offering or acquisition
of Plurinuva or (iii) the consummation of a financing round with a non-affiliated investor.
The Company
allocated the total consideration of $ 7,500 received in an amount equal to $ 6,718 for the
ordinary shares and $ 782 for the Warrants.
The Company
determined the fair value of the ordinary shares and the warrants utilizing a Monte Carlo simulation model (Level 3 classification), which
incorporates various assumptions including expected stock price volatility, risk-free interest rate, and the expected date of a qualifying
event. The Company estimated the volatility of the ordinary shares of Plurinuva based on data from similar companies operating in the
food tech field.
The main
assumptions used in the Monte Carlo simulation model are as follows:
Risk-free interest rate
1.08 %
Expected stock price volatility
85 %
The consideration
allocated to the shares issued was divided between the non-controlling interests (“NCI”) and the Company’s shareholders
as this transaction is a transaction with the NCI.
The consideration
allocated to the warrants was recognized against the NCI.
On August
23, 2022, Plurinuva and Tnuva executed an amendment to the warrant agreement, extending the exercise period of the First Warrant from
six months to nine months from the Closing Date. All other terms remained unchanged.
e. On February 26, 2022, the Subsidiary allocated
a total of 45,936 of its shares in Plurinuva, which constitute approximately 3.87 % of Plurinuva’s ordinary shares, to
its Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, pursuant to the terms of their respective employment and/or consulting
agreements with the Company. Following such allocations, the Company holds 80.34 % of the outstanding equity in Plurinuva. As a result,
the Company recognized compensation expenses in the amount of $ 1,646 representing the fair value of the respective allocated shares.
f.
Based on the Company’s current assessment, the Company does not expect material impact on its operations due to the worldwide spread of COVID-19. However, The Company may experience delays if the pandemic worsens and continues for an extended period of time and it is continuing to assess the effect on its operations by monitoring the spread of COVID-19 and the actions implemented by governments to combat the virus throughout the world.
NOTE 2: - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of presentation
The consolidated financial statements
have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”).
a. Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates, judgments, and assumptions that are
reasonable based upon information available at the time they are made. Estimates are primarily used for, but not limited to, valuation
of share-based compensation, valuation of warrants, determining the valuation and terms of leases. These estimates, judgments and assumptions
can affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes, and actual results could differ from those estimates.

NOTE 2:
- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT.)
b. Functional currency
The U.S. dollar is the primary currency
of the economic environment in which the Company and the Subsidiaries operate. Thus, the U.S dollar is the Company’s functional
and reporting currency. Accordingly, non-dollar denominated transactions and balances have been re-measured into the functional currency
in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 830, “Foreign Currency Matters”. All transaction
gains and losses from the re-measured monetary balance sheet items are reflected in the consolidated statements of operations as financial
income or expenses, as appropriate.
c. Principles of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements
include the accounts of the Company and its Subsidiaries.
Non-controlling
interests in subsidiaries represent the equity in subsidiaries not attributable, directly or indirectly, to the Company. Non-controlling
interests are presented in equity separately from the equity attributable to the shareholders of the Company. Profit or loss and components
of other comprehensive income or loss are attributed to the Company and to non-controlling interests. Losses are attributed to non-controlling
interests even if they result in a negative balance of non-controlling interests in the consolidated statements of operations.
The Company treats
transactions with non-controlling interests as transactions with its equity owners. Accordingly, for sales or purchases of shares to or
from non-controlling interests, the difference between any consideration received or paid and the portion sold or acquired of the carrying
value of the net assets of the subsidiary is recorded in equity.
Intercompany
transactions and balances have been eliminated upon consolidation.
d. 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 at
the date acquired.
e. Short-term bank deposit
Bank
deposits with original maturities of more than three months but less than one year are presented as part of short-term investments. Deposits
are presented at their cost which approximates market values including accrued interest. Interest on deposits is recorded as financial
income.
f. Restricted cash and short-term bank deposits
Restricted
cash used to secure derivative and hedging transactions and the Company’s credit line. The restricted cash and short-term bank
deposits are presented at cost which approximates market values including accrued interest.
g. Long-term restricted bank deposits
Long-term
restricted bank deposits with maturities of more than one year used to secure operating lease agreement are presented at cost which approximates
market values including accrued interest.

that will be transferred to the customer.
Revenues are recognized when the control
of the promised goods or the performance of the obligations are transferred to the customer, in an amount that reflects the consideration
to which the Company expects to be entitled to, excluding sales taxes.
The Company determines revenue recognition
through the following steps:
● identification of the contract
with a customer;
● identification of the performance
obligations in the contract;
● determination of the transaction
price;
● allocation of the transaction
price to the performance obligations in the contract; and
● recognition of revenue when, or as, the Company satisfies
a performance obligation.
i. Property and equipment
Property and equipment are stated at
cost, net of accumulated depreciation and impairments. Depreciation is calculated by the straight-line method over the estimated useful
lives of the assets, at the following annual rates:
%
Laboratory equipment
10 - 40
Computers and peripheral equipment
33
Office furniture and equipment
15
Leasehold improvements
The shorter of the expected useful life or the term of the lease.
Repairs and maintenance expenditures, which are not considered improvements
and do not extend the useful life of property and equipment, are expensed as incurred.
j. Impairment of long-lived assets
The Company’s long-lived assets
are reviewed for impairment in accordance with ASC 360, “Property, Plant and Equipment”, whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison
of the carrying amount of the assets to the future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the assets. If such assets are
considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds
the fair value of the assets. During fiscal years 2022 and 2021, no triggering events were identified, and no impairment losses were recorded.
k. Share-based compensation
The Company accounts for share-based
compensation in accordance with ASC 718, “Compensation-Share Compensation” (“ASC 718”). ASC 718 requires companies
to estimate the fair value of equity-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The Company estimates the
fair value of share options granted using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The Company accounts for employees’ share-based
payment awards classified as equity awards (restricted shares (“RS”) or restricted share units (“RSUs”)) using
the grant-date fair value method. The fair value of share-based payment transactions is recognized as an expense over the requisite service
period, net of estimated forfeitures. The Company estimates forfeitures based on historical experience and anticipated future conditions.

The Company recognized compensation
cost for an award with service conditions that has a graded vesting schedule using the accelerated method based on the multiple-option
award approach.
The Company measures the cost of employee
services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award.
The fair value of service-based share
option grants is estimated on the grant date using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model and compensation expense related to share option
and RSUs grants are recognized on a graded vesting schedule over the vesting period. For RSUs containing a market condition, the market
conditions are required to be considered when calculating the grant date fair value. ASC 718 requires selection of a valuation technique
that best fits the circumstances of an award. In order to reflect the substantive characteristics of the market condition RSU award, a
Monte Carlo simulation valuation model was used to calculate the grant date fair value of such RSUs. Expense for a market condition RSU
is recognized over the derived service period as determined through the Monte Carlo simulation model.
All RS and RSUs to employees and directors
granted during fiscal 2022 and 2021, were granted for no consideration. Therefore, their fair value was equal to the share price at the
date of grant, unless the RSUs include a market-based condition in which case the fair value of RSUs at the date of grant was calculated
using the Monte Carlo model.
The fair value of all RS and RSUs was
determined based on the close trading price of the Company’s shares known at the grant date. The weighted average grant date fair
value of RS and RSUs granted during fiscal years 2022 and 2021, was $ 2.87 and $ 9.76 per share, respectively.
l. Research and development expenses, royalty bearing grants
and non-royalty bearing grants
Research and development expenses include
costs directly attributable to the conduct of research and development programs, including the cost of salaries, share-based compensation
expenses, payroll taxes and other employee benefits, subcontractors and materials used for research and development activities, including
clinical trials, manufacturing costs and professional services. All costs associated with research and developments are expensed as incurred.
Grants received from the Israel Innovation
Authority (the “IIA”) are recognized when the grant becomes receivable, provided there was reasonable assurance that the Company
will comply with the conditions attached to the grant and there was reasonable assurance the grant will be received. The grant is deducted
from the research and development expenses as the applicable costs are incurred (see also note 8b).
Research and development expenses,
net for the year ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 include participation in research and development expenses in the amount of approximately
$ 228 and $ 467 , respectively.
Clinical study expenses are charged
to research and development expense as incurred. The Company accrues for expenses resulting from obligations under contracts with clinical
research organizations (“CROs”). The financial terms of these contracts are subject to negotiations, which vary from contract
to contract and may result in payment flows that do not match the periods over which materials or services are provided. The Company’s
objective is to reflect the appropriate study expense in the consolidated financial statements by matching the appropriate expenses with
the period in which services and efforts are expended.
During fiscal years 2022 and 2021,
the Company also received non-royalty bearing grants from the European Union research and development consortiums, under Horizon
2020, and from the IIA, under the CRISPR-IL consortium, in the amount of approximately $ 293 and $ 566 , for the year ended June 30, 2022
and 2021, respectively. The non-royalty bearing grants for funding the projects are recognized at the time the Company is entitled to
each such grant on the basis of the related costs incurred and recorded as a deduction from research and development expenses.
The CRISPR-IL consortium is a group
funded by the IIA, comprised of leading experts in life science and computer science from academia, medicine, and industry, in order to
develop AI based end-to-end genome-editing solutions.
m. Loss per share
Basic and diluted loss per share is
computed by dividing losses by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year, including unexercised vested
options with a par value price. All outstanding share options, unvested RSUs and warrants have been excluded from the calculation of the
diluted loss per common share because all such securities are anti-dilutive for each of the periods presented. The total weighted average
number of shares related to the outstanding options, warrants and RSUs excluded from the calculations of diluted net loss per share due
to their anti-dilutive effect was 5,247,803 and 5,700,994 for the years ended June 30, 2022, and 2021, respectively.

ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT.)
n. Income taxes
1. Deferred taxes
Income taxes are computed using the
asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the
differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the currently enacted tax rates
and laws. A valuation allowance is recognized to the extent that it is more likely than not that the deferred taxes will not be realized
in the foreseeable future.
2. Uncertainty in income taxes
The Company follows a two-step approach
in recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if
the available evidence indicates that it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained based on technical merits. If this
threshold is met, the second step is to measure the tax position as the largest amount that has more than a 50 % likelihood of being realized
upon ultimate settlement.
o. Concentration of credit risk
Financial instruments that potentially
subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, short-term deposits,
long-term deposits and restricted bank deposits.
The majority of the Company’s
cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, short-term and long-term deposits are mainly invested in dollar, EURO and NIS deposits of
major banks in Israel and in the United States. Deposits in the United States may be in excess of insured limits and are not insured in
other jurisdictions. Generally, these deposits may be redeemed upon demand and therefore bear minimal risk. The Company invests its surplus
cash in cash deposits in financial institutions and has established guidelines, approved by the Company’s Investment Committee,
relating to diversification and maturities to maintain safety and liquidity of the investments.
p. Severance pay
The majority of the Company’s
agreements with employees in Israel are subject to Section 14 of the Israeli Severance Pay Law, 1963 (“Severance Pay Law”).
The Company’s contributions for severance pay have replaced its severance obligation. Upon contribution of the full amount of the
employee’s monthly salary for each year of employment, no additional obligation exists regarding the matter of severance pay and
no additional payments are made by the Company to the employee. Further, the related obligation and amounts deposited on behalf of the
employee for such obligation are not stated on the balance sheet, as the Company is legally released from the obligation to employees
once the deposit amounts have been paid.
For some employees, for whom their agreement is not
subject to Section 14 of the Severance Pay Law, the Subsidiary’s liability for severance pay is calculated pursuant to Israeli Severance
Pay Law, based on the most recent salary of the employees multiplied by the number of years of employment, as of the balance sheet date.
Employees are entitled to one month’s salary for each year of employment or a portion thereof. The Company’s liability for
all of its employees is fully provided by monthly deposits with insurance policies and by an accrual. The value of these policies is recorded
as an asset in the Company’s balance sheet.

ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT.)
The deposited funds may be withdrawn
only upon the fulfillment of the obligation pursuant to the Severance Pay Law or labor agreements. The value of the deposited funds is
based on the cash surrendered value of these policies, and includes immaterial profits or losses accumulated up to the balance sheet date.
Severance expenses for the years ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 were $ 835 and $ 748 , respectively.
q. Fair value of financial instruments
The carrying amounts of the Company’s
financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, short-term and restricted bank deposits, accounts receivable
and other current assets, trade payable and other accounts payable and accrued expenses, approximate fair value because of their generally
short term maturities.
The Company measures its derivative
instruments at fair value under ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement” (“ASC 820”). Fair value is an exit price, representing
the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer 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. As a
basis for considering such assumptions, ASC 820 establishes a three-tier value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in the valuation
methodologies in measuring fair value:
Level 1 -
Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2 -
Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and
Level 3 -
Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
The fair value hierarchy also requires
an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The Company
categorized each of its fair value measurements in one of these three levels of hierarchy.
On April 30, 2020, the Company, through
the German Subsidiary, entered into a finance contract (the “Finance Contract”) with the EIB, pursuant to which the German
Subsidiary can obtain a loan in the amount of up to € 50 million, subject to certain milestones being reached (the “Loan”),
payable in three tranches, with the first tranche consisting of € 20 million, second of € 18 million and third of € 12 million
for a period of 36 months from the signing of the Finance Contract.
The Company measures its liability
pursuant to the Finance Contract (see also note 7) with the EIB based on the aggregate outstanding amount of the combined principal and
accrued interest. The Company does not reflect its liability for future royalty payments pursuant to the Finance Contract since the royalty
payments are to be paid as a percentage of the Company’s future consolidated revenues, pro-rated to the amount disbursed, beginning
in the fiscal year 2024 and continuing up to and including its fiscal year 2030, which cannot be measured at this time.
r. Derivative financial instruments
The Company accounts for derivatives
and hedging based on ASC 815, “Derivatives and hedging”, as amended and related interpretations (“ASC 815”). ASC
815 requires the Company to recognize all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. If a derivative meets the definition of a hedge
and is so designated, depending on the nature of the hedge, changes in the fair value of the derivative will either be offset against
the change in fair value of the hedged assets, liabilities, or firm commitments through earnings (for fair value hedge transactions) or
recognized in other comprehensive income (loss) until the hedged item is recognized in earnings (for cash flow hedge transactions).
If a derivative does not meet the definition
of a hedge, the changes in the fair value are included in earnings. Cash flows related to Company’s current hedging are classified
as operating activities. The Company enters into option contracts in order to limit the exposure to exchange rate fluctuation associated
with expenses mainly incurred in New Israeli Shekels (“NIS”) and its loan from the EIB that is linked to the Euro. Since the
derivative instruments that the Company holds do not meet the definition of hedging instruments under ASC 815, any gain or loss derived
from such instruments is recognized immediately as “financial income, net”.

ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT.)
The Company measured the fair value
of the contracts in accordance with ASC 820. Foreign currency derivative contracts are classified within Level 2 as the valuation inputs
are based on quoted prices and market observable data of similar instruments. As of June 30, 2022, the fair value of the options contracts
is presented in “Other accounts payable” (see note 5) and as of June 30, 2021, the fair value of the options contracts is
presented in “Other current assets” (see note 3). The net gains (losses) recognized in “Financial income, net”
during the year ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 were ($ 373 ) and $ 35 respectively (see note 10).
s. Leases
Operating leases are included in operating
lease right-of-use (“ROU”) asset, and operating lease liability. ROU assets represent Company’s right to use an underlying
asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU
assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term.
In determining the present value of lease payments, the Company uses the incremental borrowing rate based on the information available
at the lease commencement date as the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable. The determination of the incremental borrowing
rate requires management judgment based on information available at lease commencement. The operating lease ROU assets also include adjustments
for prepayments, accrued lease payments and exclude lease incentives. Operating lease cost is recognized on a straight-line basis over
the expected lease term. Lease agreements with a noncancelable term of less than 12 months are not recorded on the balance sheets.
The Company accounts for an extension
of a lease term that was not part of the original lease as a modification. As a result, the Company reallocate contract consideration
between the lease and non-lease components, reassess lease classification, and remeasure the lease liability and right-of-use asset prospectively.
Assumptions such as the discount rate, fair value of the underlying asset, and variable rents based on a rate or index will be updated
as of the modification date.
Lease terms will include options to extend or terminate
the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will either exercise or not exercise the option to renew or terminate the lease.
t. Recently Issued Accounting
Pronouncements not yet adopted
ASU No. 2016-13 - “Financial
Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” (“ASU 2016-13”):
In June 2016, the Financial Accounting
Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, “Financial Instruments
- Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” (“ASU 2016-13”). ASU 2016-13 changes
the impairment model for most financial assets and certain other instruments. For trade and other receivables, held-to-maturity debt securities,
loans, and other instruments, entities will be required to use a new forward-looking “expected loss” model that generally
will result in the earlier recognition of allowances for losses. The guidance also requires increased disclosures. The amendments contained
in ASU 2016-13 were originally effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those
fiscal years for the Company. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-10, which delayed the effective date of ASU 2016-13
for smaller reporting companies (as defined by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission rules (“SRC”)) to fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods.
Early adoption is permitted. The
Company meets the definition of an SRC and is adopting the deferral period for ASU 2016-13. The guidance requires a modified retrospective
transition approach through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. The Company
is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-13 on its consolidated financial statements but does not expect that the
adoption of this standard will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In November 2021, the FASB issued ASU
2021-10 “Government Assistance (Topic 832)”, which requires annual disclosures that increase the transparency of transactions
involving government grants, including (1) the types of transactions, (2) the accounting for those transactions, and (3) the
effect of those transactions on an entity’s financial statements. The amendments in this update are effective for financial statements
issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2021.
The Company does not expect that the
adoption of this standard will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
u. Comprehensive loss
For all periods presented, net loss
is the same as comprehensive loss as there are no comprehensive income items.
t. Loss contingencies
The Company may become involved, from
time to time, in various lawsuits and legal proceedings which arise in the ordinary course of business. The Company records accruals for
loss contingencies to the extent that it concludes their occurrence is probable and that the related liabilities are estimable.

NOTE 7: - LOAN FROM THE EIB
On April 30, 2020, the German Subsidiary
entered into the Finance Contract with the EIB, pursuant to which the German Subsidiary can obtain the Loan in the amount of up to € 50
million, subject to certain milestones being reached, payable in three tranches, with the first tranche consisting of € 20 million,
second of € 18 million and third of € 12 million for a period of 36 months from the signing of the Finance Contract.
The tranches will be treated independently,
each with its own interest rate and maturity period. The annual interest rate is 4 % (consisting of a 0 % fixed interest rate and a 4 % deferred
interest rate payable upon maturity,) for the first tranche, 4 % (consisting of a 1 % fixed interest rate and a 3 % deferred interest rate
payable upon maturity) for the second tranche and 3 % (consisting of a 1 % fixed interest rate and a 2 % deferred interest rate payable upon
maturity) for the third tranche.
In addition to any interest
payable on the Loan, the EIB is entitled to receive royalties from future revenues for a period of seven years starting at the
beginning of fiscal year 2024 and continuing up to and including its fiscal year 2030 in an amount equal to between 0.2 % to 2.3 % of
the Company’s consolidated revenues, pro-rated to the amount disbursed from the Loan.
During June 2021, Pluri received the
first tranche in an amount of € 20 million of the Finance Contract. The amount received is due on June 1, 2026 and bears annual interest
of 4 % to be paid with the principal of the Loan. As of June 30, 2022, the linked principal balance in the amount of $ 20,779 and the interest
accrued in the amount of $ 899 are presented among long term liabilities.
The Finance Contract also contains certain limitations such
as the use of proceeds received from the EIB, limitations relates to disposal of assets, substantive changes in the nature of the Company’s
business, changes in holding structure, distributions of future potential dividends and engaging with other banks and financing entities
for other loans.

a. As of June 30, 2022, an amount
of $ 1,641 of cash and deposits was pledged by the Subsidiary to secure its hedging transaction, credit line, lease agreement and bank guarantees.
b. Under the Law for the Encouragement
of Industrial Research and Development, 1984, (the “Research Law”), research and development programs that meet specified
criteria and are approved by the IIA are eligible for grants of up to 50 % of the project’s expenditures, as determined by the research
committee, in exchange for the payment of royalties from the sale of products developed under the program. Regulations under the Research
Law generally provide for the payment of royalties to the IIA of 3 % on sales of products and services derived from a technology developed
using these grants until 100 % of the dollar-linked grant is repaid. The Company’s obligation to pay these royalties is contingent
on its actual sale of such products and services. In the absence of such sales, no payment is required. Outstanding balance of the grants
will be subject to interest at a rate equal to the 12 month LIBOR applicable to dollar deposits that is published on the first business
day of each calendar year. Following the full repayment of the grant, there is no further liability for royalties.
As of June 30, 2022, the Company’s
contingent liability in respect to royalties to the IIA amounted to $ 27,574 , not including LIBOR interest as described above.
c. The Company was awarded a Smart Money grant of approximately $ 229 from Israel’s Ministry of Economy and Industry to facilitate certain marketing and business development activities with respect to its advanced cell therapy products in the Chinese market, including Hong Kong. The Israeli government granted the Company budget resources that are intended to be used to advance the Company’s product candidate towards marketing in the China-Hong Kong markets. The Company will also receive support from Israel’s trade representatives stationed in China, including Hong Kong, along with experts appointed by the Smart Money program. As part of the program, the Company will repay royalties of 5 % from the Company’s revenues in the region for a five year period, beginning the year in which the Company will not be entitled to reimbursement of expenses under the program and will be spread for a period of up to 5 years or until the amount of the grant is fully paid. As of June 30, 2022, the grant received from this Smart Money program was approximately $ 179 , program has ended and no royalties were paid or accrued.

February 2022 to the Company’s Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, each pursuant to the terms of their
respective employment and/or consulting agreements (see note 1d).
2 - Market-based awards:
In September 2020, the Company granted
its Chairman and Chief Executive Officer an aggregate of 1,000,000 RSUs (500,000 each) under the Plans.
The RSUs will vest in full upon the
achievement of a milestone of the Company increasing the market capitalization of its common shares on the Nasdaq Global Market to $ 550,000
within no more than three years from the date of grant.
For market-based awards, the Company
determines the grant-date fair value utilizing a Monte Carlo simulation model, which incorporates various assumptions including expected
share price volatility, risk-free interest rates, and the expected date of a qualifying event. The Company estimates the volatility of
the common shares based on its historical share price volatility for a period of 4 years from the grant date based on the daily changes
in the share price. The risk-free interest rate is based on the zero-coupon yield of U.S. Treasury bonds for the expiration date of the
RSUs.
The fair value of the market-based
award uses the assumptions noted in the following table:
Risk-free interest rates
0.16 %
Dividend yield
0 %
Expected volatility
69.44 %
The Company recognizes compensation
expenses for the value of its market-based awards based on the results of the Monte Carlo valuation model. The fair value of the market-based
awards granted on the grant date was $ 7.28 per share and the expected time for the market condition to achieve, based on the Monte Carlo
valuation model, is thirteen and a half months from the date of the grant. For the year ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 the Company recognized
$ 2,127 and $ 5,156 of expenses included in general and administrative expenses, respectively.

NOTE 11: - TAXES ON INCOME
a. Tax rates applicable to the
Company:
1. Pluri:
The U.S. corporate federal tax rate
applicable to Pluri is 21 %, which is the result of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the “Tax Act”). Such corporate tax rate
excludes state tax and local tax, if any, which rates depend on the state and city in which Pluri conducts its business.
The Tax Act provided for a
one-time transition tax on certain foreign earnings for the tax year 2017, and taxation of Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income
(“GILTI”) earned by foreign subsidiaries beginning after December 31, 2017. The GILTI tax imposes a tax on foreign
income in excess of a deemed return on tangible assets of foreign corporations. The Tax Act also makes certain changes to the
depreciation rules and implements new limits on the deductibility of certain executive compensation paid by Pluri All losses
generated after December 31, 2017 can only be used to offset 80 % of net income in the year they will be utilized.
There was no one-time transition tax
for the Company under the Tax Act, nor will there be GILTI tax due for the current year, since the Subsidiary had losses for every year
to date.
In January 2018, Pluri registered as
an Israeli resident with the Israel Tax Authority (the “ITA”) and the Israeli Value Added Tax Authorities. As a result, as
of such date, Pluri is classified as a dual resident for tax purposes both in Israel and the United States.

NOTE 11: - TAXES ON INCOME (CONT.)
In June 2018, Pluri Inc. and the Subsidiary
submitted an election notice to the ITA to file a consolidated tax return in Israel commencing with the 2018 tax year.
2. The Subsidiary:
Consolidated taxable income of Pluri
and the Subsidiary (the “Consolidated tax unit”) is subject to tax at the rate of 23 % in 2022 and 2021.
The Consolidated tax unit is filing
its consolidated tax reports in dollars based on specific regulations of the ITA which allow, in specific circumstances, filing tax reports
in dollars (“Dollar Regulations”). Under the Dollar Regulations, the tax liability is calculated in dollars according to certain
orders. The tax liability, as calculated in dollars, is translated into NIS according to the exchange rate as of June 30 of each year.
The Subsidiary has not received final
tax assessments since its incorporation; however the assessments of the Subsidiary are deemed final through 2017.
The Law for the Encouragement of
Capital Investments, 1959 (the “Law”):
The Subsidiary has programs which meet
the criteria of a “Beneficiary Enterprise”, in accordance with the Law, under the Alternative Benefit Track starting with
2007 as the election year (the “2007 Program”) and 2012 as an election year to the expansion of its “Beneficiary Enterprise”
program (the “2012 Program”).
Under the 2012 Program, the Subsidiary,
which was located in the “Other National Priority Zone” with respect to the year 2012, would be tax exempt in the first two
years of the benefit period and subject to tax at the reduced rate of 10 %- 25 % for a period of five to eight years for the remaining benefit
period (dependent on the level of foreign investments).
In respect of expansion programs pursuant
to Amendment No. 60 to the Law, the duration of the benefit period has been amended, such that it starts at the later of the election
year and the first year the Company earns taxable income provided that 12 years have not passed since the beginning of the election year
and for companies in National Priority Zone A - 14 years have not passed since the beginning of the election year.
The benefit period for the Subsidiary’s
2007 Program expired in 2018 (12 years since the beginning of the election year– 2007) and the benefit period for the Subsidiary’s
2012 Program is expected to expire in 2023 (12 years since the beginning of the election year - 2012).
If a dividend is distributed out of
tax exempt profits, as detailed above, the Subsidiary will become liable for taxes at the rate applicable to its profits from the Beneficiary
Enterprise in the year in which the income was earned (tax at the rate of 10-25%, dependent on the level of foreign investments) and to
a withholding tax rate of 15% (or lower, under an applicable tax treaty).
Accelerated depreciation:
The Subsidiary is eligible for deduction
of accelerated depreciation on buildings, machinery and equipment used by the “Beneficiary Enterprise” at a rate of 200 % (or
400 % for buildings but not more than 20 % depreciation per year) from the first year of the assets operation.

NOTE 11: - TAXES ON INCOME (CONT.)
Conditions for the entitlement to
the benefits:
The above mentioned benefits are conditional
upon the fulfillment of the conditions stipulated by the Law, regulations promulgated thereunder, and the Ruling with respect to the beneficiary
enterprise. Non-compliance with the conditions may cancel all or part of the benefits and refund of the amount of the benefits, including
interest. Company’s management believes that the Subsidiary is meeting the aforementioned conditions.
Amendments to the Law:
In December 2010, the “Knesset”
(Israeli Parliament) passed the Law for Economic Policy for 2011 and 2012 (Amended Legislation), 2011, which prescribes, among others,
amendments in the Law (“Amendment No. 68”). Amendment No. 68 became effective as of January 1, 2011. According to Amendment
No. 68, the benefit tracks in the Law were modified and a flat tax rate became applicable to a company for all preferred income under
its status as a preferred company with a preferred enterprise.
On August 5, 2013, the Knesset issued
the Law for Changing National Priorities (Legislative Amendments for Achieving Budget Targets for 2013 and 2014), 2013 which consists
of Amendment No. 71 to the Law (“Amendment No. 71”). According to Amendment No. 71, the tax rate on preferred income form
a preferred enterprise in 2014 and thereafter will be 16 % (in development area A it will be 9 %).
Amendment No. 71 also prescribes that
any dividends distributed to individuals or foreign residents from the preferred enterprise’s earnings as above will be subject
to tax at a rate of 20 %.
The Subsidiary did not apply Amendment
No. 71 with respect to the preferred enterprise status, but may choose to apply Amendment No. 71 in the future.
Innovation Box Regime “Technological
Preferred Enterprise”:
In December 2016, the Knesset approved
amendments to the Law that introduce an innovation box regime (the “Innovation Box Regime”) for intellectual property (IP)-based
companies, enhance tax incentives for certain industrial companies and reduce the standard corporate tax rate and certain withholding
rates starting in 2017.
The Innovation Box Regime was tailored
by the Israeli government to a post-base erosion and profit shifting world, encouraging multinationals to consolidate IP ownership and
profits in Israel along with existing Israeli research and development (“R&D”) functions. Tax benefits created to achieve
this goal include a reduced corporate income tax rate of 6 % on IP-based income and on capital gains from future sale of IP.
The 6 % rate would apply to qualifying
Israeli companies that are part of a group with global consolidated revenue of over NIS 10 billion (approximately $ 2.9 billion). Other
qualifying companies with global consolidated revenue below NIS 10 billion, would be subject to a 12 % tax rate.
However, if the Israeli company is located
in Jerusalem or in certain northern or southern parts of Israel, the tax rate is further reduced to 7.5 %. Additionally, withholding tax
on dividends for foreign investors would be subject to a reduced rate of 4 % for all qualifying companies (unless further reduced by a
treaty).
Entering the regime is not conditioned
on making additional investments in Israel, and a company could qualify if it invested at least 7 % of the last three years’ revenue
in R&D (or incurred at least NIS 75 million in R&D expenses per year) and met one of the following three conditions:
1. At least 20 % of its employees are
R&D employees engaged in R&D (or employs, in total, more than 200 R&D employees);
2. Venture capital investments in the
aggregate of NIS 8 million were previously made in the company; or
3. Average annual growth over three
years of 25 % in sales or employees.

NOTE 11: - TAXES ON INCOME (CONT.)
Companies not meeting the above conditions
may still be considered as a qualified company at the discretion of the IIA. Companies wishing to exit from the regime in the future will
not be subject to claw back of tax benefits. The Knesset also approved a stability clause in order to encourage multinationals to invest
in Israel. Accordingly, companies will be able to confirm the applicability of tax incentives for a 10-year period under a pre-ruling
process. Further, in line with the new Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development Nexus Approach, the Israeli Finance Minister
will promulgate regulations to ensure companies are benefiting from the regime to the extent qualifying research and development expenditures
are incurred.
The regulations were set to be finalized
by March 31, 2017, with new amendments to the Law coming into effect after the regulations have been finalized.
Taxable income which is not produced
as part of “Preferred Enterprise” income will be taxed at the regular tax rate ( 23 % in 2022).
As of June 30, 2022, the Company’s
management believes that the Company meets the conditions mentioned above to be considered as a Technological Preferred Enterprise.
3. Pluristem GmbH:
The corporate tax rate applicable to
the German Subsidiary is 15%, which is derived from the German Corporation Tax Act and Solidarity surcharge of 5.5% from the 15% corporate
tax rate. This corporate tax rate excludes trade tax, which rate depends on the municipality in which the German Subsidiary conducts its
business. Trade Tax is calculated by determining the Trade Tax Base with 3.5% of the trade income and applying the tax factor which differs
according to the specific municipality in Germany and equals 455% for the municipality of Potsdam.
4. Plurinuva:
Plurinuva is an Israeli tax resident
and is subject to corporate income tax at the rate of 23 %.
b. Carryforward losses for tax
purposes
As of June 30, 2022, Pluri had a U.S.
federal net operating loss carryforward for income tax purposes in the amount of $ 34,836 . Net operating loss carryforwards arising in
taxable years, can be carried forward and offset against taxable income for 20 years and expire between 2023 and 2038.
Utilization of U.S. net operating losses
may be subject to substantial annual limitations due to the “change in ownership” provisions of the Internal Revenue Code
of 1986 and similar state provisions. The annual limitation may result in the expiration of net operating losses before utilization.
The Subsidiary has accumulated losses,
for tax purposes, as of June 30, 2022, in the amount of approximately $ 129,286 , which may be carried forward and offset against taxable
business income and business capital gain in the future for an indefinite period.
In January 2018, Pluri registered as
an Israeli resident with the ITA and the Israeli Value Added Tax Authorities. As of June 30, 2022, Pluri and the subsidiaries consolidated
accumulated losses, for tax purposes, are approximately $ 122,375 , which may be carried forward and offset against taxable business income
and business capital gain in the future for an indefinite period.
The German Subsidiary has accumulated
losses, for tax purposes, as of June 30, 2022, in the amount of approximately $ 588 , which may be carried forward and offset against taxable
business income and business capital gain in the future for an indefinite period.

As of June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company
has provided full valuation allowances in respect of deferred tax assets resulting from tax loss carryforwards and other temporary differences,
since it has a history of operating losses and due to current uncertainty concerning its ability to realize these deferred tax assets
in the future.
The Company accounts for its income
tax uncertainties in accordance with ASC 740 which clarifies the accounting for uncertainties in income taxes recognized in a Company’s
financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement
of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return.
As of June 30, 2022 and 2021, there
were no unrecognized tax benefits that if recognized would affect the annual effective tax rate.
Reconciliation of taxes at the federal
statutory rate to Company’s provision for income taxes:
In 2022 and 2021, the main reconciling item of the statutory tax rate
of the Company ( 21 % to 23 %) to the effective tax rate ( 0 %) is tax loss carryforward and research and development credit carryforward for
which a full valuation allowance was provided.
