On
January 1, 2020, the Company announced certain cost reduction measures due the Company not achieving certain revenues goals. In connection
with these cost reduction measures, on January 1, 2020, Mr. Jonathan Stefansky, the Company’s then chief executive officer and

understanding whereby Mr. Stefansky would step down as chief executive officer, effective March 1, 2020. On the same date, the Company

Results
of Operations during the year ended December 31, 2021 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2020
Revenues
for the year ended December 31, 2021 was $41 thousand as compared to $96 thousand for the year end December 31, 2020. The reason for
the decrease during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 is due to the Company’s cost-reduction measures implemented beginning
on January 1, 2021.
Cost
of revenues for the year ended December 31, 2021 was $0 which is a slight decrease to $5 thousand for the year end December 31, 2020.
Research
and development costs for the year ended December 31, 2021 was $64 thousand as compared to $108 thousand for the year end December 31,
2020. The reason for the decrease during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 is due to the Company’s cost-reduction measures
implemented beginning on January 1, 2020, though despite these measures, the Company hired the services of an R&D team during the
fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.
Sales
and marketing expenses for the year ended December 31, 2021 was $2 thousand as compared to $8 thousand for the year end December 31,
2020. The reason for the decrease during the year ended December 31, 2021 is due to the Company’s cost-reduction measures implemented
beginning on January 1, 2020.
21
General
and Administration expenses for the year ended December 31, 2021 was $304 thousand as compared to $437 thousand for the year end December
31, 2020. The reason for the decrease in 2021 is due to certain cost reduction measures initiated by the Company as of the beginning
of January 2020.
Our
net financial expense was $30 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2021, compared to net financial income of $13 thousand for the
year end December 31, 2020. The reason for the increase in financial expenses in 2021 is due to the loan agreement with Pure Capital
and other lenders entered into on December 18, 2020, which interest expenses were recognized in the year ended December 31, 2021.
Our
taxes on income was $2 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2021 and for the year ended December 31, 2020.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
As
of December 31, 2021, we had current assets of $156 thousand consisting of $74 thousand in cash and cash equivalents, $8 thousand in
trade receivables, $30 thousand in other accounts receivables and, $44 thousand in prepaid expenses.
As
of December 31, 2021, we had $2,436 thousand in current liabilities consisting of $9 in trade payables, $242 in other accounts payable
and accrued liabilities, $69 Short term loan, and $2,116 payable to our Parent Company.
As
of December 31, 2020, we had current assets of $225 thousand consisting of $148 thousand in cash and cash equivalents and restricted
cash, $15 thousand in trade receivables, $20 thousand in other receivables and $42 thousand in prepaid expenses. We had $2,303 thousand
in current liabilities, which consisted of $177 in accounts payable and accrued liabilities and $22 trade payable, $50 Short term loan,
and $2,054 payable to our Parent Company.
We
had a negative working capital of $2,280 thousand and $2,078 thousand as of December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.
Our
total liabilities as of December 31, 2021 were $2,436 thousand compared to $2,303 thousand as of December 31, 2020.
During
the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, we had negative cash flow from operations of $74 thousand which was mainly the result of a net
loss of $386 thousand, offset by decrease in working capital of $312 thousand.
During
the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, we had negative cash flow from operations of $53 thousand which was mainly the result of a net
loss of $443 thousand, depreciation expense of $5 thousand, offset by gains from the sale of a subsidiary and decrease in working capital
of $385 thousand.
During
the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, we had no cash flow from investing activities as compared to a positive cash flow effect from
investing activities of $13 thousand as during the year ended December 31, 2020.
During
the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, we had no cash flow from financing activities as compared to a positive cash flow from financing
activities of $99 thousand during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, which related to the Loan Agreement and issuance of shares
we have made during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020. In January 2022, the repayment date under the Loan Agreement was extended
per the Investors’ request. The Investors also expressed their intention to convert the remaining sum of the Principal Amount to
shares of our Common Stock, however, if we are required to repay the Principal Amount in cash, we will be able to receive cash flow for
the repayment from our Parent Company. The Gix Loan along with any accrued interest is due on December 31, 2022, unless extended upon
mutual consent of the Company and Gix Internet.
There
are no limitations in the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation on the Company’s ability to borrow funds or raise funds
through the issuance of shares of its common stock to affect a business combination. The Company’s limited resources and lack of
having cash-generating business operations may make it difficult to borrow funds or raise capital. The Company’s limitations to
borrow funds or raise funds through the issuance of restricted capital stock required to effect or facilitate a business combination
may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition and future prospects, including the ability to complete
a business combination.
22
Until
such time as the Company can generate substantial revenues, the Company expects to finance its cash needs through a combination of the
sale of its equity and/or convertible debt securities, debt financing and strategic alliances, collaborations, and funds from its Parent
Company. To the extent that the Company raises additional capital through the sale of its equity and/or convertible debt securities,
the ownership interest of its shareholders will be diluted, and the terms of these securities may include liquidation or other preferences
that adversely affect the rights of our common shareholders. Debt financing, if available, may involve agreements that include covenants
limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions, such as incurring additional debt, making capital expenditures or declaring
dividends. To the extent that debt financing ultimately proves to be available, any borrowing will subject us to various risks traditionally
associated with indebtedness, including the risks of interest rate fluctuations and insufficiency of cash flow to pay principal and interest,
including debt of an acquired business. If the Company raises funds through additional collaborations or strategic alliances with third
parties, we may have to relinquish valuable rights to our future revenue streams and/or distribution arrangements. No assurance can be
given that any future financing will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to the Company. If
the Company is unable to raise additional funds through equity and/or debt financings when needed or on attractive terms, the Company
may be required to delay, limit, reduce or terminate the operations of some or all of its business segments.
Going
Concern
The
Company has incurred $386 thousand in net losses for the year ended December 31, 2021, has $2,280 thousand shareholders’ deficit
as of December 31, 2021 and $2,078 thousand in total shareholders’ deficit as of December 31, 2020 and $74 thousand negative cash
flows from operations for the year ended December 31, 2021, and $53 thousand negative cash flows from operations for the year ended December
31, 2020. Management expects the Company to continue to generate substantial operating losses and to continue to fund its operations
primarily through utilization of its current financial resources and through additional raises of capital.
Such
conditions raise substantial doubts about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plan includes
raising funds from outside potential investors. However, there is no assurance such funding will be available to the Company or that
it will be obtained on terms favorable to the Company or will provide the Company with sufficient funds to meet its objectives. These
financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of assets, carrying amounts or
the amount and classification of liabilities that may be required should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
Availability
of Additional Capital
Our
potential financing transactions may include the issuance of equity and/or debt securities including convertible debt, obtaining credit
facilities, or other financing mechanisms. In the event that we seek to raise funds through additional private placements of equity or
convertible debt, the trading price of our common stock could be adversely affected. Further, any adverse conditions in the financial
markets could make it more difficult to obtain future financing through the issuance of equity or debt securities when and if needed.
Even if we are able to raise a sufficient amount of funds that may be required, it is possible that we could incur unexpected costs and
expenses or experience unexpected cash requirements that would force us to seek additional and/or alternative financing. Further, if
we issue additional equity or debt securities, stockholders may experience additional dilution or the new equity securities may have
rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of existing holders of our common stock. If additional financing is not available or
is not available on acceptable terms, we may have to curtail our plan of operations.
The
Company has only limited capital. Additional financing is necessary for the Company to continue as a going concern. Our independent auditors
have issued an unqualified audit opinion for the year ended December 31, 2021 with an explanatory paragraph on going concern.
23
In
view of these matters, realization of a major portion of the assets in the accompanying balance sheet is dependent upon continued operations
of the Company. Management believes that actions presently being taken to obtain additional equity financing will provide the opportunity
to continue as a going concern.
Contractual
Obligations and Commitments
As
of December 31, 2021, and 2020, we did not have any contractual obligations.
Critical
Accounting Policies
Our
consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. The preparation
of our consolidated financial statements and disclosures requires us to make judgments, estimates, and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements as
well as the reported revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. We base our estimates on historical experience, known trends
and events and various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for
making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. We evaluate our
estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis. Our actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions.
Our
significant accounting policies are described in more detail in the notes to our audited consolidated financial statements appearing
elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
