NOTES TO INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
U.S. dollars in thousands (except share data)
NOTE 1: GENERAL
A. Organizational Background
Viewbix Inc. (formerly known as Virtual
Crypto Technologies, Inc.) (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Delaware on August 16, 1985, under a predecessor
name, The InFerGene Company (“InFerGene Company”). On August 25, 1995, a wholly owned subsidiary of InFerGene Company merged
with Zaxis International, Inc., an Ohio corporation, which following such merger, the surviving entity, InFerGene Company, changed its
name to Zaxis International, Inc (“Zaxis”). In 2015 the Company changed its name to Emerald Medical Applications Corp., subsequent
to which the Company, through its subsidiarity, was engaged in the development of technology for use in detection of skin cancer. On January
29, 2018, the Company ceased its business operations in this field.
On January 17, 2018, the Company formed
a new wholly owned subsidiary under the laws of the State of Israel, Virtual Crypto Technologies Ltd. (“VCT Israel”), to develop
and market software and hardware products facilitating and supporting the purchase and/or sale of cryptocurrencies. Effective as of March
7, 2018, the Company’s name was changed from Emerald Medical Applications Corp. to Virtual Crypto Technologies, Inc. VCT Israel
ceased its business operation in 2019 and prior to consummation of the Recapitalization Transaction. On January 27, 2020, VCT Israel was
sold to a third party for NIS 50 thousand (approximately $ 13 ).
On February 7, 2019, the Company entered
into a share exchange agreement (the “Share Exchange Agreement” or the “Recapitalization Transaction”) with Gix
Internet Ltd., a company organized under the laws of the State of Israel (“Gix” or “Parent Company’’), pursuant
to which, Gix assigned, transferred and delivered its 99.83 % holdings in Viewbix Ltd., a company organized under the laws of the State
of Israel (“Viewbix Israel”), to the Company in exchange for shares of the Company, which resulted in Viewbix Israel becoming
a subsidiary of the Company. In connection with the Share Exchange Agreement, effective as of August 7, 2019, the Company’s name
was changed from Virtual Crypto Technologies, Inc. to Viewbix Inc.
B. Reorganization Transaction
On December 5, 2021, the Company entered
into a certain Agreement and Plan of Merger with Gix Media Ltd. (“Gix Media”), an Israeli company and the majority-owned ( 77.92 %)
subsidiary of Gix, the Parent Company and Vmedia Merger Sub Ltd., an Israeli company and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger
Sub”), pursuant to which, Merger Sub merged with and into Gix Media, with Gix Media being the surviving entity and a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Company (the “Reorganization Transaction”).
On September 19, 2022, (the “Closing
Date”) the Reorganization Transaction was consummated and as a result, all outstanding ordinary shares of Gix Media, having no par
value (the “Gix Media Shares”) were delivered to the Company in exchange for the Company’s shares of common stock, par
value $ 0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”). As a result of the Reorganization Transaction, the former holders of Gix Media Shares,
who previously held approximately 68% of the Company’s Common Stock, hold approximately 97% of the Company’s Common Stock,
and Gix Media became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

NOTE 1: GENERAL (Cont.)
B. Reorganization Transaction
(Cont.)
As the Company and Gix Media Ltd. were
consolidated both by the Parent Company and Medigus Ltd. (the “Ultimate Parent”), before and after the Reorganization Transaction,
the Reorganization Transaction was accounted for as a transaction between entities under common control. Accordingly, the financial information
of the Company and Gix Media Ltd. is presented in these financial statements, for all periods presented, reflecting the historical cost
of the Company and Gix Media Ltd., as it is reflected in the consolidated financial statements of the Parent Company, for all periods
preceding March 1, 2022, the date the Ultimate Parent obtained a controlling interest in the Parent Company and as it is reflected in
the consolidated financial statements of the Ultimate Parent for all periods subsequent to March 1, 2022.
Share and per share data in these financial
statements have been retrospectively adjusted, for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2022, to reflect a number of shares that
is equivalent to the number of shares of the Company post the Reorganization Transaction.
C. Business Overview
The Company and its subsidiaries (the
“Group”), Gix Media and Cortex Media Group Ltd. (“Cortex”), operate in the field of digital advertising. The Group
has two main activities that are reported as separate operating segments: the search segment and the digital content segment.
The search segment develops a variety
of technological software solutions, which perform automation, optimization, and monetization of internet campaigns, for the purposes
of obtaining and routing internet user traffic to its customers. The search segment activity is conducted by Gix Media.
The digital content segment is engaged
in the creation and editing of content, in different languages, for different target audiences, for the purposes of generating revenues
from leading advertising platforms, including Google, Facebook, Yahoo and Apple, by utilizing such content to obtain and route internet
user traffic for its customers. The digital content segment activity is conducted by Cortex.
As of December 31, 2022, Gix Media
held 70 % of Cortex’s share capital.
On January 23, 2023, Gix Media acquired
an additional 10 % of the share capital of Cortex, increasing its holdings to 80 % in consideration for $ 2,625 (the “Subsequent Purchase”).
The Subsequent Purchase was financed by Gix Media’s existing cash balances and by a long-term bank loan received on January 17,
2023, in the amount of $ 1,500 .
The Subsequent Purchase was recorded
as a transaction with non-controlling interests in the Company’s statement of changes in shareholders equity for the nine month
period ended September 30, 2023.
D. Reverse Stock Split
In connection with the Closing of
the Reorganization Transaction, the Company filed an Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Amended COI”)
with the Secretary of State of Delaware, effective as of August 31, 2022, pursuant to which, concurrently with the effectiveness of the
Amended COI, the Company, among other things, effected a reverse stock split of its Common Stock at a ratio of 1-for-28 .
Share and per share data in these financial statements have been retrospectively adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split for the
nine and three months ended September 30, 2022.
E.
Going Concern
As
a result of the decrease in user traffic during the three month period ending September 30, 2023, and the impact of the ongoing ‘Iron
Swords’ war in Israel, which commenced subsequent to the balance sheet date (see note 10), the Company’s operations were
adversely affected. While management expects the Company to continue to generate positive cash flows from its operations, such a decline
may reasonably result in the Company’s inability to repay its debt obligations during the 12 month period following the issuance date of these financial statements. These prevailing conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going
concern.
Management’s
plans in light of these uncertainties include negotiating the terms of its debt instrument with Bank Leumi (see note 6) or issuing additional
equity or debt instruments in order to raise capital. However, there can be no assurance that such financing alternatives will consummate
or will be available on terms acceptable to the Company.
These interim 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.

STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A. Unaudited Interim Financial Statements
The accompanying unaudited interim
condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”)
for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation
S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included (consisting
only of normal recurring adjustments except as otherwise discussed). For further information, reference is made to the consolidated financial
statements and footnotes thereto included in the Group’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.
B. Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying condensed consolidated
financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions
have been eliminated in consolidation.
C. Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements
in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities,
the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue
and expenses during the reporting period. The Company evaluates on an ongoing basis its assumptions, including those related to contingencies,
deferred taxes, inventory impairment, stock-based compensation, as well as in estimates used in applying the revenue recognition policy.
Actual results may differ from those estimates.
D. Significant Accounting Policies
The significant accounting policies
followed in the preparation of these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements are identical to those applied in the
preparation of the latest annual financial statements.
E. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Management does not believe that any

C. Reverse Stock Split:
On August 31, 2022, the Company filed
the Amended COI with the Secretary of State of Delaware to affect a 28 to 1 reverse stock split of the Company’s outstanding shares
of Common Stock. All share and per share data in these financial statements have been retrospectively adjusted for the nine and three
months ended September 30, 2022, to reflect the reverse stock split.
D. Share option plan :
In 2017, after the completion of Gix
Media’s acquisition by the Parent Company, the Parent Company granted options to Gix Media’s employees. These options entitle
the employees to purchase ordinary shares of the Parent Company that are traded on Tel-Aviv Stock Exchange.
On March 2, 2023, the Board approved
the adoption of the 2023 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2023 Plan”). The 2023 Plan permits the issuance of up to (i) 2,500,000
shares of Common Stock, plus (ii) an annual increase equal to the lesser of (A) 5 % of the Company’s outstanding capital stock on
the last day of the immediately preceding calendar year; and (B) such smaller amount as determined by the Board, provided that no more
than 2,500,000 shares of Common Stock may be issued upon the exercise of Incentive Stock Options. If any outstanding awards expire, are
canceled or are forfeited, the underlying shares would be available for future grants under the 2023 Plan. As of the date of approval
of the financial statements, the Company had reserved 2,500,000 shares of Common Stock for issuance under the 2023 Plan.
The 2023 Plan provides for the grant
of stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock or other stock-based awards, under various tax regimes, including, without
limitation, in compliance with Section 102 and Section 3(i) of the Israeli Income Tax Ordinance (New Version) 5271-1961, and for awards
granted to United States employees or service providers, including those who are deemed to be residents of the United States for tax purposes,
Section 422 and Section 409A of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986.
In connection with the adoption of
the 2023 Plan, on March 7, 2023, the Company entered into certain intercompany reimbursement agreements with two of its subsidiaries,
Viewbix Israel and Gix Media (the “Recharge Agreements”). The Recharge Agreements provide for the offer of awards under the
2023 Plan to service providers of Viewbix Israel and Gix Media (the “Affiliates”) under the 2023 Plan. Under the Recharge
Agreements, the Affiliates will each bear the costs of awards granted to its service providers under the 2023 Plan and will reimburse
the Company upon the issuance of shares of Common Stock pursuant to an award, for the costs of shares issued, but in any event not prior
to the vesting of an award. The reimbursement amount shall be equal to the lower of (a) the book expense for such award as recorded on
the financial statements of one of the respective Affiliates, determined and calculated according to U.S. GAAP, or any other financial
reporting standard that may be applicable in the future, or (b) the fair value of the shares of Common Stock at the time of exercise of
an option or at the time of vesting of an RSU, as applicable.
On July 20, 2023, the Company granted
51,020 restricted share units (the “RSUs”) under the 2023 Plan to Gix Media’s CEO, as part of his employment terms,
(the “Grantee”) under the following terms and conditions: (1) 51,020 of Common Stock underlying the grant of RSUs (2) Vesting

NOTE 9: SEGMENT REPORTING
The Group operates in two different
segments in such a way that each company in the Group operates as a separate business segment.
Search segment - the search segment
develops a variety of technological software solutions, which perform automation, optimization and monetization of internet campaigns,
for the purposes of obtaining and routing internet user traffic to its customers.
Digital content segment - the
digital content segment is engaged in the creation and editing of content, in different languages, for different target audiences, for
the purposes of generating revenues from leading advertising platforms, including Google, Facebook, Yahoo and Apple, by utilizing such
content to obtain internet user traffic for its customers.
The segments’ results include
items that directly serve and/or are used by the segment’s business activity and are directly allocated to the segment. As such
they do not include depreciation and amortization expenses for intangible assets created at the time of the purchase of those companies,
financing expenses created for loans taken for the purpose of purchasing those companies, and therefore these items are not allocated
to the various segments.
Segments’ assets and liabilities
are not reviewed by the Group’s chief operating decision maker and therefore were not reflected in the segment reporting.

NOTE 10: SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
1. On October 7, 2023, subsequent to the reporting period, the State of Israel suffered a surprise attack,
which led to the declaration of the ‘Iron Swords’ War (the “War”). The War is on-going as of the issuance date
of these financial statements. Consequently, the Company’s operations were disrupted due to the recruitment of some of the Company’s
employees, including Gix Media’s CEO, to the army reserves.
Based on its assessment, the Company
expects a negative effect on its results of operations in the fourth quarter of 2023 due to the War, which its extent cannot be estimated
at this stage.
2. On October 10, 2023, Gix Media and Leumi entered into an
addendum to an existing loan agreement between the parties, dated October 13, 2021. As part of the addendum to the loan agreement,
Leumi extended an existing monthly renewable credit line of $ 3,500
(the “Gix Media Credit Line”) by one year which will expire on October
13, 2024 . The amounts that are drawn from the Gix Media Credit Line bear an annual interest of SOFR
+ 4.05% .
