ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA. PLURI INC. AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS As of June 30, 2023 U.S. DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS INDEX Page Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm (PCAOB ID 1309 ) F-2 - F-3 Consolidated Balance Sheets F-4 - F-5 Consolidated Statements of Operations F-6 Statements of Changes in Shareholders’ Equity F-7 - F-8 Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows F-9 Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements F-10 - F-37 F- 1 Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm 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, 2023 and 2022, 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, 2023 and 2022, 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. F- 2 Critical Audit Matters Critical audit matters are matters arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (i) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (ii) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. We determined there are no critical audit matters. /s/ Kesselman & Kesselman Certified Public Accountants (lsr.)

F- 9 PLURI INC. AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS U.S. Dollars in thousands (except share and per share amounts) NOTE 1: - GENERAL a. Effective July 26, 2022, Pluri Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Pluri Inc.”), 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 Inc. was incorporated on May 11, 2001. Pluri Inc. 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 new subsidiary, Ever After Foods Ltd. (“Ever After”) formerly known as Plurinuva Ltd.. Ever After 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 Inc., the Subsidiary, the German Subsidiary and Ever After are referred to as the “Company” or “Pluri.” The Subsidiary, the German Subsidiary and Ever After 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 operating 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 a mass scale and cost-effective cell expansion platform such as cellular agriculture and biologics. Pluri is focused on the research, development and manufacturing of cell-based products and the business development of cell therapeutics and cell-based technologies providing potential solutions for various industries. c. The Company has incurred an accumulated deficit of approximately $ 399,584 and incurred recurring operating losses and negative cash flows from operating activities since inception. As of June 30, 2023, the Company’s total shareholders’ equity amounted to $ 13,355 . During the year ended June 30, 2023, the Company incurred losses of $ 28,321 and its negative cash flow from operating activities was $ 22,857 . As of June 30, 2023, the Company’s cash position (cash and cash equivalents, short-term bank deposits, restricted cash and restricted bank deposits) totaled $ 41,067 . The Company plans to continue to finance its operations from its current resources, by entering into licensing or other commercial and collaboration agreements, from grants to support its research and development activities and from sales of its equity securities. 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. During 2022 and 2023, the Company also implemented a cost reduction and efficiency plan to align with the change in its business strategy. 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 Ever After, with the purpose of developing cultivated meat products. Ever After received exclusive, global, royalty bearing licensing rights to use Pluri’s proprietary technology, intellectual property and knowhow in the field of cultivated meat. Tnuva invested $ 7,500 in Ever After and received 187,500 of Ever After’s ordinary shares, representing 15.79 % of the Ever After 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. F- 10 PLURI INC. AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS U.S. Dollars in thousands (except share and per share amounts) NOTE 1: - GENERAL (CONT.) T he first warrant (the “First Warrant”) issued to Tnuva permitted Tnuva to purchase up to 125,000 ordinary shares of Ever After at an exercise price of $ 40.00 per share, and had a term commencing on the Closing Date and ended 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 Ever After 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 had not expired, Ever After agreed to issue a second warrant (the “Second Warrant” and together with the First Warrant, the “Warrants”) to Tnuva which permitted Tnuva to purchase up to a number of ordinary shares of Ever After, or the then most senior securities issued by Ever After, in consideration for such amount equal to 200 % of the remaining balance of the aggregate purchase price of the First Warrant, provided that Tnuva exercised 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 equaled $ 76.00 . The Second Warrant had a term commencing on the six month anniversary of the Closing Date and ended 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 Ever After 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 Ever After based on data from similar companies operating in the food tech field. 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, (“Amendment Date”), Ever After and Tnuva executed an amendment to the warrant agreement (“Amendment”), extending the exercise period of the First Warrant from six months to nine months from the Closing Date. All other terms remained unchanged. Following the Amendment, the Company recalculated the fair value of the warrants utilizing the same Monte Carlo simulation model (Level 3 classification) before and after the Amendment Date, which incorporates various assumptions including expected stock price volatility, risk-free interest rate, and the expected date of a qualifying event. The main assumptions used in the Monte Carlo simulation model are as follows: Risk-free interest rate 3.25 % Expected stock price volatility 70 % The Company estimated the volatility of the ordinary shares of Ever After based on data from similar companies operating in the food tech field. The additional fair value determined was $ 385 . F- 11 PLURI INC. AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS U.S. Dollars in thousands (except share and per share amounts) NOTE 1: - GENERAL (CONT.) On November 22, 2022, the warrants in Ever After expired unexercised and $ 1,014 were classified from NCI to additional paid-in capital. e. On February 26, 2022, the Subsidiary allocated a total of 45,936 of its shares in Ever After, which constitute approximately 3.87 % of Ever After’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 Ever After. As a result, the Company recognized compensation expenses in the amount of $ 1,646 representing the fair value of the respective allocated shares. 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 and 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. 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 Ever After 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. F- 12 PLURI INC. AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS U.S. Dollars in thousands (except share and per share amounts) NOTE 2: - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT.) 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 the Company’s credit line, derivative and hedging transactions and lease agreement. 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. h. Revenue Recognition A contract with a customer exists only when: (i) the parties to the contract have approved it and are committed to perform their respective obligations, (ii) the Company can identify each party’s rights regarding the distinct goods or services to be transferred (“performance obligations”), (iii) the Company can determine the transaction price for the goods or services to be transferred, (iv) the contract has commercial substance and (v) it is probable that the Company will collect the consideration to which it will be entitled in exchange for the goods or services 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, 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. F- 13 PLURI INC. AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS U.S. Dollars in thousands (except share and per share amounts) NOTE 2: - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT.) 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. The 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 2023 and 2022, 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 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. F- 14 PLURI INC. AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS U.S. Dollars in thousands (except share and per share amounts) NOTE 2: - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT.) 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 RSUs to employees and directors granted during fiscal 2023 and 2022, 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 RSUs was determined based on the closing trading price of the Company’s shares known at the grant date. The weighted average grant date fair value of RSUs granted during fiscal years 2023 and 2022, was $ 0.99 and $ 2.87 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 development 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). Clinical study expenses are charged to research and development expenses as incurred. The Company accrues 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. F- 15 PLURI INC. AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS U.S. Dollars in thousands (except share and per share amounts) NOTE 2: - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT.) During fiscal years 2023 and 2022, the Company also received (in cash) non-royalty bearing grants from the European Union research and development consortiums, under Horizon 2020, Horizon Europe and from the IIA, under the CRISPR-IL consortium, in the amount of approximately $ 2,426 and $ 293 , for the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, 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. Research and development expenses, net for the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 include participation in research and development expenses in the amount of approximately $ 1,668 and $ 228 , respectively. 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 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 14,151,578 and 5,247,803 for the years ended June 30, 2023, and 2022, respectively. 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. F- 16 PLURI INC. AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS U.S. Dollars in thousands (except share and per share amounts) NOTE 2: - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT.) 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 bank deposits, long-term restricted bank deposits. The majority of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, short-term bank deposits and long-term restricted deposits are mainly invested in New Israeli Shekel (“NIS”) and U.S. dollar 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 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. 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, 2023 and 2022 were $ 732 and $ 835 , 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 bank deposits and restricted bank deposits and other current assets, trade payable and other accounts payable and accrued expenses, approximate fair value because of their generally short-term maturities. F- 17 PLURI INC. AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS U.S. Dollars in thousands (except share and per share amounts) NOTE 2: - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT.) 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 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”), receivable 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. 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. Since the project period ended on December 31, 2022, the Company does not expect to receive additional funds pursuant to the Finance Contract. The Company measures its liability pursuant to the Finance Contract with the EIB based on the aggregate outstanding amount of the combined principal and accrued interest thereunder. The Company does not reflect its liability for future royalty payments pursuant to the Finance Contract with the EIB 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). F- 18 PLURI INC. AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS U.S. Dollars in thousands (except share and per share amounts) NOTE 2: - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT.) 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 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”. 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, 2023, there were no derivatives instruments and as of June 30, 2022, the fair value of the derivatives instruments is presented in “Other accounts payable” (see note 5). The net losses recognized in “Financial income (expenses), net” during the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 were $ 157 and $ 372 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 the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the 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 non-cancelable 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 reallocates contract consideration between the lease and non-lease components, reassesses lease classification, and remeasures 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. New Accounting Pronouncements i. Recently adopted accounting pronouncements ASU 2020-06 “Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815 – 40)” (“ASU 2020-06”): In August 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2020-06, which provides guidance simplifying the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity, including convertible instruments and contracts on an entity’s own equity. The amendments to this guidance are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this standard on its consolidated financial statements. F- 19 PLURI INC. AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS U.S. Dollars in thousands (except share and per share amounts) NOTE 2: - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT.) ASU 2021-04-Issuer’s Accounting for Certain Modifications or Exchanges of Freestanding Equity-Classified Written Call Options (“ASU 2021-04”): In May 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-04, which provides guidance as to how an issuer should account for a modification of the terms or conditions or an exchange of a freestanding equity-classified written call option (i.e., a warrant) that remains equity classified after modification or exchange as an exchange of the original instrument for a new instrument. An issuer should measure the effect of a modification or exchange as the difference between the fair value of the modified or exchanged warrant and the fair value of that warrant immediately before modification or exchange and then apply a recognition model that comprises four categories of transactions and the corresponding accounting treatment for each category (equity issuance, debt origination, debt modification, and modifications unrelated to equity issuance and debt origination or modification). ASU 2021-04 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. An entity should apply the guidance provided in ASU 2021-04 prospectively to modifications or exchanges occurring on or after the effective date. The Company has adopted ASU 2021-04, which has had an impact on the modification of the warrants to the non-controlling interest in Ever After (see also note 1c). ASU No. 2021-10-“Government Assistance (Topic 832): Disclosures by Business Entities about Government Assistance” (“ASU 2021-10”): In November 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-10, 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 were effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2021. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. ii. 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 FASB issued ASU 2016-13, which 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 are required to use a new forward-looking “expected loss” model that generally 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 does not expect that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. F- 20 PLURI INC.

In addition, the Company has the option to extend the term of the lease (the “Extension Option”) for an additional period of five years until December 2031. The Company reflected the Extension Option during the evaluation of the lease liability and ROU asset. The monthly lease payments are approximately NIS 292,000 ($ 83 ) which are linked to the consumer price index and will increase by 10 % in the event the Company exercises its Extension Option. In addition, the Company has operating leases for vehicles that expire through fiscal year 2026.

There were no deferred participation payments for the year ended June 30, 2023. As of June 30, 2023, the weighted average remaining lease term is 8.1 years, and the weighted average discount rate is 9 percent. As of June 30, 2022, the weighted average remaining lease term is 9.1 years, and the weighted average discount rate is 9 percent. The discount rate was determined based on the estimated collateralized borrowing rate of the Company, adjusted to the specific lease term and location of each lease. For vehicles, the lease period is usually 3 years. 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 a loan in the amount of up to € 50 million, subject to certain milestones being reached, receivable 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 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, 2023, the linked principal balance in the amount of $ 21,722 and the interest accrued in the amount of $ 1,808 are presented among long-term liabilities. Since the project period ended on December 31, 2022, the Company does not expect to receive additional funds pursuant to the Finance Contract. The Finance Contract also contains certain limitations such as the use of proceeds received from the EIB, limitations relate 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. NOTE 8: - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES a. As of June 30, 2023, an amount of $ 896 of cash and deposits was pledged by the Subsidiary to secure its 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 U.S. 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. The outstanding balance of the grants will be subject to interest at a rate equal to the 12 month LIBOR applicable to U.S. 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, 2023, the Company’s contingent liability in respect to royalties to the IIA amounted to $ 27,565 , not including LIBOR interest as described above. c. In April 2017 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, 2023, the grant received from this Smart Money program was approximately $ 180 , the program has ended, and no royalties were paid or accrued. d. In September 2017, the Company signed an agreement with the Tel-Aviv Sourasky Medical Center (Ichilov Hospital) to conduct a Phase I/II trial of PLX-PAD cell therapy for the treatment of Steroid-Refractory Chronic Graft-Versus-Host-Disease (“cGVHD”). As part of the agreement with Ichilov Hospital, the Company will pay royalties of 1 % from its net sales of the PLX-PAD product relating to cGVHD, with a maximum aggregate royalty amount of approximately $ 500 .

In June 2018 the Company was awarded a marketing grant of approximately $ 52 under the “Shalav” program of the Israeli Ministry of Economy and Industry. The grant is intended to facilitate certain marketing and business development activities with respect to the Company’s advanced cell therapy products in the U.S. market. As part of the program, the Company will repay royalties of 3 %, but only with respect to the Company’s revenues in the U.S. market in excess of $ 250 of its revenues in fiscal year 2018, upon the earlier of the five year period beginning the year in which the Company will not be entitled to reimbursement of expenses under the program and/or until the amount of the grant, which is linked to the consumer price index, is fully paid. As of June 30, 2023, the aggregate amount of the grant received is approximately $ 52 and no royalties were paid or accrued. f. As to potential royalties to the EIB, see note 7.

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 be achieved, based on the Monte Carlo valuation model, is thirteen and a half months from the date of the grant.

(3) Nasdaq Deficiency Notice: On April 19, 2023, the Company received a letter (the “Notice”) from The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) advising that for 30 consecutive trading days preceding the date of the Notice, the bid price of the Company’s common shares had closed below the $ 1.00 per share minimum required for continued listing on the Nasdaq Global Market pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(a)(1) (“MBPR”). The Notice has no effect on the listing of the Company’s common shares at this time, and the common shares continue to trade on Nasdaq under the symbol “PLUR.” Under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), if during the 180 calendar day period following the date of the Notice the closing bid price of the common shares is at or above $1.00 for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days, the Company will regain compliance with the MBPR and the Company’s common shares will continue to be eligible for listing on Nasdaq, absent noncompliance with any other requirement for continued listing. The compliance period (“Compliance Period”) to comply with the MBPR will expire on October 16, 2023. If the Company does not regain compliance with the MBPR by the end of the Compliance Period, then under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A)(i), the Company may transfer to The Nasdaq Capital Market, provided that the Company meets the applicable market value of publicly held shares requirement for continued listing as well as all other standards for initial listing of the common shares on the Nasdaq Capital Market (other than the MBPR), and notifies Nasdaq of the Company’s intention to cure the deficiency. Following a transfer to The Nasdaq Capital Market, the Company may be afforded an additional 180-days to regain compliance with the MBPR.

AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS U.S. Dollars in thousands (except share and per share amounts) 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 Inc. 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 Inc. is classified as a dual resident for tax purposes both in Israel and the United States. 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 % for the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. The consolidated tax unit is filing its consolidated tax reports in U.S. dollars based on specific regulations of the ITA which allow, in specific circumstances, filing tax reports in U.S. dollars (“Dollar Regulations”). Under the Dollar Regulations, the tax liability is calculated in U.S. 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). F- 32 PLURI INC. AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS U.S. Dollars in thousands (except share and per share amounts) NOTE 11: - TAXES ON INCOME (CONT.) With respect to the 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 asset’s operation. 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 require the refund of the amount of the benefits, including interest. The 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 from 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 %. F- 33 PLURI INC. AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS U.S. Dollars in thousands (except share and per share amounts) NOTE 11: - TAXES ON INCOME (CONT.) 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 $ 2,900,000 ). 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. F- 34 PLURI INC. AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS U.S. Dollars in thousands (except share and per share amounts) 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 R&D 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 2023). As of June 30, 2023, 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. Ever After: Ever After 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, 2023, Pluri had a U.S. federal net operating loss carryforward for income tax purposes in the amount of $ 34,586 . Net operating loss carryforwards arising in taxable years, can be carried forward and offset against taxable income for 20 years and thus will expire between 2022 and 2037. Net operating losses generated in tax years 2002 and 2003 have expired and were reduced from the total net operating loss carryforward available. Utilization of U.S. net operating losses may be subject to substantial annual limitations due to the “change in ownership” provisions of the U.S. 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, 2023, 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. F- 35 PLURI INC. AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS U.S. Dollars in thousands (except share and per share amounts) NOTE 11: - TAXES ON INCOME (CONT.) In January 2018, Pluri Inc. registered as an Israeli resident with the ITA and the Israeli Value Added Tax Authorities. As of June 30, 2023, Pluri Inc. and the Subsidiaries consolidated accumulated losses, for tax purposes, are approximately $ 188,233 , 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, 2023, in the amount of approximately $ 596 , which may be carried forward and offset against taxable business income and business capital gain in the future for an indefinite period. c. Loss before income taxes The components of loss before income taxes are as follows: Year ended June 30, 2023 2022 Consolidated loss of Pluri Inc. and the Israeli Subsidiaries $ 28,878 $ 41,370 Pluristem GmbH 9 4 $ 28,887 $ 41,374 d. Deferred income taxes: Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Significant components of the Company’s deferred tax assets are as follows: June 30, 2023 2022 Deferred tax assets: Operating loss carryforwards $ 80,534 $ 65,384 Research and development credit carryforwards 4,057 5,583 Issuance costs 68 - Allowances and reserves 237 286 Total deferred tax assets before valuation allowance 84,896 71,253 Valuation allowance ( 84,896 ) ( 71,253 ) Net deferred tax asset $ - $ - As of June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company has provided full valuation allowances with respect to the 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, 2023 and 2022, 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 2023 and 2022, 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 R&D credit carryforward for which a full valuation allowance was provided. NOTE 12: - SUBSEQUENT EVENT. a.
