NOTE 1:- GENERAL
a. These financial statements have been prepared as of June 30, 2005 and for the
six months period then ended. These financial statements are to be read in
conjunction with the audited annual financial statements of the Company as of
December 31, 2004, and their accompanying notes.
b. In July 2005, the Company's shares were admitted to trading on AIM, a market
operated by the London Stock Exchange in addition to the trading on TASE
(Tel-Aviv Stock Exchange).
As a result of the admission, expenses in the amount of $ 1,032,000 were
recognized in the statement of operations as other expenses.
Under Israeli GAAP the net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2005 amounted
to $ 211 and the total equity as of June 30, 2005 amounted to $ 7,979,000
translated from NIS to US Dollars based on the exchange rate on June 30, 2005.
NOTE 2:- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
a. The interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) in the
context of interim condensed financial standards. The significant accounting
policies and methods of computations applied in the preparation of the interim
financial statements are the same as those applied in the annual financial
statements as of December 31, 2004, except as described in c. below and are the
policies expected to be adopted in respect of the annual accounts for the year
ending December 31, 2005.
b. Following are data regarding rates of the New Israeli Shekel ("NIS") and the
Pound Sterling in relation to the U.S. dollar are as follows:
Exchange rate of Exchange rate of
As of one U.S. dollar one Pound
Sterling
------------------- ---------------- ----------------
June 30, 2005 NIS 4.574 NIS 8.197
June 30, 2004 NIS 4.497 NIS 8.147
December 31, 2004 NIS 4.308 NIS 8.308
c. Adoption of new standards:
On January 1, 2005, the Company has adopted IFRS 2, "Share Based Payment". IFRS
2 requires an expense to be recognized where the Company buys goods or services
in exchange for shares or rights over shares ("equity-settled transactions"), or
in exchange for other assets equivalent in value to a given number of shares or
rights over shares ("cash-settled transactions"). The main impact of IFRS 2 on
the Company is the expense of employees' and directors' share options and other
share-based incentives by using an option-pricing-model.
The Company has applied IFRS 2 only to equity-settled awards granted after 7
November 2002 that had not vested on or before 31 December 2004.
The effect of the adoption of IFRS 2 on the six months ended 30 June 2004, 2005
and the year ended 2004 is an increase in the employee benefits expenses in the
amount of $328,000 $414,000 and $ 656,000 respectively with a corresponding
increase in additional paid-in capital.
The cost of equity-settled transactions is recognized, together with a
corresponding increase in equity, over the period in which the performance
conditions are fulfilled, ending on the date the options vest.
NOTE 3:- SIGNIFICANT EVENT DURING THE PERIOD
a. On February 24, 2005, the Company repaid convertible debentures in the amount
of $ 4,500,000 which were issued on February 2000 and bear no interest.
Furthermore, on the same day, the warrants which were issued to the holders,
were expired.
b. 1. In March 2005, 250,000 options were exercised by previous investors of the
Company to Ordinary shares, at an exercise price of NIS 0.01 per share.
2. During May and June 2005, 560,835 options were exercised by employees and
consultants to Ordinary shares, at an exercise price of $ 1.5 per share.
