NOTES TO INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

U.S. Dollars in thousands (except share and per share amounts)

NOTE 1:-GENERAL

Pluristem Therapeutics Inc., a Nevada corporation, was incorporated on May 11, 2001. Pluristem Therapeutics Inc. has a wholly owned subsidiary, Pluristem Ltd. (the “Subsidiary”), which is incorporated under the laws of the State of Israel. Pluristem Therapeutics Inc. and the Subsidiary are referred to as the “Company” or “Pluristem”.

The Company’s shares of common stock are traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “PSTI” and on the Tel-Aviv Stock Exchange under the symbol “PLTR”.

The Company is a bio-therapeutics company developing placenta-based cell therapy product candidates for the treatment of multiple ischemic and inflammatory conditions. The Company has incurred an accumulated deficit of approximately $243,244 and incurred recurring operating losses and negative cash flows from operating activities since inception. As of March 31, 2019, the Company’s total stockholders' equity amounted to $8,627.

During the nine month period ended March 31, 2019, the Company incurred operating losses of $27,601 and its negative cash flow from operating activities was $22,780. The Company will be required to identify additional liquidity resources in the near term in order to support the commercialization of its products and maintain its research and development and clinical trials activities.

As of March 31, 2019, the Company's cash position (cash and cash equivalents and short-term bank deposits) totaled approximately $10,537. The Company is addressing its liquidity issues by implementing initiatives to allow the continuation of its activities. The Company's current operating plan includes various assumptions concerning the level and timing of cash outflows for operating activities and capital expenditures. The Company's ability to successfully carry out its business plan, which includes a cost-reduction plan should it be unable to raise sufficient additional capital, is primarily dependent upon its ability to (1) obtain sufficient additional capital, (2) enter into license agreements to use or commercialize the Company’s products and (3) receive other sources of funding, including non-diluting sources such as the IIA grants, the European Union's Horizon 2020 program (“Horizon 2020”) grants and other grants. There are no assurances, however, that the Company will be successful in obtaining an adequate level of financing needed for the long-term development and commercialization of its products.

According to management estimates, liquidity resources as of March 31, 2019, together with the funds received from the public offering and registered direct offering that closed on April 8, 2019 (see Note 8), will be sufficient to maintain the Company's operations into the beginning of the fourth quarter of the Company's fiscal year 2020. The Company's inability to raise funds to carry out its business plan will have a severe negative impact on its ability to remain a viable company.

CHA Agreement

On June 26, 2013, Pluristem entered into an exclusive license and commercialization agreement (the “CHA Agreement”) with CHA Biotech Co. Ltd. (“CHA”), for conducting clinical trials and commercialization of Pluristem's PLX-PAD product in South Korea in connection with two indications: the treatment of Critical Limb Ischemia (“CLI”), and Intermediate Claudication (collectively with CLI, the “Indications”). Under the terms of the CHA Agreement, CHA will receive exclusive rights in South Korea for conducting clinical trials with respect to the Indications and the Company will continue to retain rights to its proprietary manufacturing technology and cell-related intellectual property.

The first clinical study as part of the CHA Agreement is a Phase II trial in Intermittent Claudication. South Korea’s Ministry of Food and Drug Safety approved this study in November 2013.

NOTE 1:-GENERAL (CONT.)

Upon the first regulatory approval for a PLX product in South Korea, for the specified Indications, Pluristem and CHA will establish an equally owned joint venture to commercialize PLX cell products in South Korea. Pluristem will be able to use the data generated by CHA to pursue the development of PLX product candidates outside of South Korea.

The CHA Agreement contains customary termination provisions, including in the event the parties do not reach an agreement upon development plan for conducting the clinical trials. Upon termination of the CHA Agreement, the license granted thereunder will terminate and all rights included therein will revert to the Company, and the Company will be free to enter into agreements with any other third parties for the granting of a license in or outside South Korea or to deal in any other manner with such rights as it shall see fit at its sole discretion.

In addition, and as contemplated by the CHA Agreement, in December 2013, Pluristem and CHA executed the mutual investment pursuant to which Pluristem issued 2,500,000 shares of its common stock in consideration for 1,011,504 shares of CHA, which reflects total consideration to each of Pluristem and CHA of approximately $10,414. The parties also agreed to give an irrevocable proxy to the other party’s management with respect to the voting power of the shares issued.

In March 2015, the Company sold a portion of the CHA shares received in December 2013. In January 2018, the Company sold its remaining investment in the CHA shares, for aggregate net proceeds of approximately $10,500, representing a net gain of $6,200, which is recorded in “Financial income, net” for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018, and reclassified from other comprehensive loss.

Chart Industries Agreement

In November 2018, the Company entered into a license agreement with a subsidiary of Chart Industries, Inc. ("Chart") regarding the Company’s thawing device for cell-based therapies. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, Chart obtained the exclusive rights to manufacture and market the thawing device in all territories worldwide, excluding Greater China, and the Company is to receive royalties from sales of the product and supply of an agreed upon number of thawing devices. Royalties shall commence on the date of Chart’s first commercial sale of the thawing device. As of March 31, 2019, commercial sale of the thawing device has not yet begun.

NOTE 2:- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT.)

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.

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.

These estimates, judgments and assumptions can affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Fair value of financial instruments

The carrying amounts of the Company's financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, short-term and restricted bank deposits, accounts receivable and other current assets, trade payable and other accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities, approximate fair value because of their generally short term maturities.

The Company measures its investments in marketable securities and derivative instruments at fair value under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”), “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“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 (see Note 4).

Derivative financial instruments

The Company accounts for derivatives and hedging based on ASC 815, “Derivatives and hedging” (“ASC 815”), as amended and related interpretations. ASC 815 requires the Company to recognize all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value.

NOTE 2:- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT.)

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).

The ineffective portion of a derivative's change in fair value is recognized in earnings. 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 such hedges are classified as operating activities.

The Company enters into forward exchange contracts and option contracts in order to limit the exposure to exchange rate fluctuation associated with expenses mainly incurred in New Israeli Shekels (“NIS”). 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 March 31, 2019, the fair value of the options contracts was less than $1, and is presented in “other accounts payable” (see Note 4). The net income (loss) recognized in “Financial income, net” during the three and nine month periods ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 was $348, $243 and ($75), ($292), respectively.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncement

ASU No. 2016-18 – "Statement of Cash Flows" (Topic 230) (“ASU No. 2016-18”):

In November 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-18. The ASU requires that the consolidated statement of cash flows include the change in total cash and cash equivalents and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts. ASU No. 2016-18 also requires a reconciliation between the total of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash presented on the consolidated statement of cash flows and the cash and cash equivalents balance presented on the consolidated balance sheet. ASU No. 2016-18 was effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those fiscal years. The standard requires application using a retrospective transition method. The Company adopted this standard effective July 1, 2018 using the retrospective transition method, as required by the new standard.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

ASU No. 2016-02 - “Leases” (“Topic 842”):

In February 2016, the FASB issued guidance on the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both parties to a contract (i.e., lessees and lessors). The new standard requires lessees to apply a dual approach, classifying leases as either finance or operating leases based on the principle of whether or not the lease is effectively a financed purchase by the lessee. This classification will determine whether a lease expense is recognized based on an effective interest method or on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease, respectively. A lessee is also required to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term of greater than 12 months regardless of their classification. Leases with a term of 12 months or less will be accounted for in a manner similar to the accounting treatment requirements under existing guidance for operating leases today. The new standard requires lessors to account for leases using an approach that is substantially equivalent to existing guidance for sales-type leases, direct financing leases and operating leases. Topic 842 supersedes the previous leases standard, ASC 840, “Leases”. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2018, or July 1, 2019 for the Company, and interim periods within those fiscal years with early adoption permitted. Early adoption is permitted. The provisions of ASU 2016-02 are to be applied using a modified retrospective approach.

In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-11, "Targeted Improvements - Leases (Topic 842)", which further updated Topic 842. This update provides an optional transition method that allows entities to elect to apply the standard prospectively at its effective date, versus recasting the prior periods presented.

If elected, an entity would recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption.

The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of the guidance on its consolidated financial statements.

ASU No. 2017-12 - “Derivatives and Hedging - Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities” (“ASU No. 2017-12”):

In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-12, which is intended to simplify and amend the application of hedge accounting to more clearly portray the economics of an entity’s risk management strategies in its financial statements. The ASU will make more financial and nonfinancial hedging strategies eligible for hedge accounting, reduce complexity in fair value hedges of interest rate risk and ease certain documentation and assessment requirements of hedge effectiveness. It also changes how companies assess effectiveness of the hedge and amends the presentation and disclosure requirements relating to hedging activities. ASU 2017-12 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, or July 1, 2019, for the Company. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of adopting the ASU on its consolidated financial statements.

ASU No. 2018-07 - “Compensation—Stock Compensation” (Topic 718) (“ASU No. 2018-07”):

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07. The ASU expands the scope of ASU No. 2018-07 to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. An entity should apply ASU No. 2018-07 to nonemployee awards except with respect to option pricing models and the attribution of cost (that is, the period of time over which share-based payment awards vest and the pattern of cost recognition over that period). The amendments specify that ASU No. 2018-07 applies to all share-based payment transactions in which a grantor acquires goods or services to be used or consumed in a grantor’s own operations by issuing share-based payment awards. ASU No. 2018-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, or July 1, 2019 for the Company, and interim periods within those fiscal years with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of the guidance on its consolidated financial statements.

ASU No. 2018-18 - “Collaborative Arrangements (Topic 808) - Clarifying the Interaction between Topic 808 and Topic 606” (“ASU No. 2018-18”):

In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-18, which clarifies the interaction between Topic 808 and Topic 606 by (1) clarifying that certain transactions between collaborative arrangement participants should be accounted for under Topic 606, (2) adding unit-of-account guidance in Topic 808 to align with the guidance in Topic 606, and (3) clarifying presentation guidance for transactions with a collaborative arrangement participant that are not accounted for under Topic 606. ASU 2018-18 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, or July 1, 2019 for the Company. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting the ASU on its consolidated financial statements.

Under the Law for the Encouragement of Industrial Research and Development, 1984, (the “Research Law”), research and development programs that meet specified criteria and are approved by the IIA are eligible for grants of up to 50% of the project’s expenditures, as determined by the research committee, in exchange for the payment of royalties from the sale of products developed under the program.

Regulations under the Research Law generally provide for the payment of royalties to the IIA of 3% on sales of products and services derived from a technology developed using these grants until 100% of the dollar-linked grant is repaid. The Company’s obligation to pay these royalties is contingent on its actual sale of such products and services. In the absence of such sales, no payment is required.

Outstanding balance of the grants will be subject to interest at a rate equal to the 12 month LIBOR applicable to dollar deposits that is published on the first business day of each calendar year. Following the full repayment of the grant, there is no further liability for royalties.

Through March 31, 2019, total grants obtained from the IIA aggregated to approximately $27,096 and total royalties paid and accrued amounted to $170. As of March 31, 2019, the Company's contingent liability in respect to royalties to the IIA amounted to $26,926, not including LIBOR interest as described above.

Overview

Pluristem Therapeutics Inc. is a leading developer of placenta-based cell therapy product candidates for the treatment of multiple ischemic, inflammatory and hematologic conditions. Our lead indications are critical limb ischemia, or CLI, muscle recovery following surgery for hip fracture, and acute radiation syndrome, or ARS. Each of these indications is a severe unmet medical need. We were incorporated in Nevada in 2001, and have a wholly owned subsidiary in Israel called Pluristem Ltd. We operate in one segment and our operations are focused on the research, development, clinical trials and manufacturing of cell therapeutics and related technologies.

PLX cells are derived from a class of placental cells that are harvested from donated placenta at the time of full term healthy delivery of a baby. PLX cell products require no tissue matching prior to administration. They are produced using our proprietary three-dimensional expansion technology. Our manufacturing facility complies with the European, Japanese, Israeli, South Korean and U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or FDA’s, current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements and has been approved by the European and Israeli regulators for production of PLX-PAD for late stage trials. In December 2017, after an audit of our facilities, we were granted manufacturer/importer authorization and Good Manufacturing Practice Certification by Israel’s Ministry of Health. If we obtain FDA and other regulatory approvals to market PLX cells, we expect to have in-house production capacity to grow clinical-grade PLX cells in commercial quantities.

Our goal is to make significant progress with our clinical pipeline and our anticipated pivotal trials in order to ultimately bring innovative, potent therapies to patients who need new treatment options. We expect to demonstrate a real-world impact and value from our pipeline, technology platform and commercial-scale manufacturing capacity. Our business model for commercialization and revenue generation includes, but is not limited to, direct sale of our products, partnerships, licensing deals, and joint ventures with pharmaceutical companies.

We aim to shorten the time to commercialization of our product candidates by leveraging unique accelerated regulatory pathways that exist in the United States, Europe and Japan to bring innovative products that address life-threatening diseases to the market efficiently. We believe that these accelerated pathways create substantial opportunities for us and for the cell therapy industry as a whole.

Two pivotal, Phase III multinational clinical trials are currently being conducted with our PLX-PAD product candidate: one in CLI, and the other in muscle recovery following surgery for hip fracture. In April 2019, we successfully enrolled over 50% of patients in our Phase III study in CLI, which allows for an interim analysis of efficacy after a one-year follow-up period under the European Medicines Agency’s, or EMA, Adaptive Pathways pilot project, in which PLX-PAD was selected to participate. Based on our current patient enrollment progress, we expect to complete the follow up of our Phase III study in CLI in the first half of 2020 with respect to Europe, and in the first half of 2021 with respect to the United States. In addition, based on our current patient enrollment progress, we expect to complete the follow up of our Phase III study in muscle recovery following surgery for hip fracture in the second half of 2020. We expect to release the clinical data shortly after the conclusion of the follow ups.

Our PLX-PAD cell program in CLI had been selected for the Adaptive Pathways pilot project of the EMA, Japan’s Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Agency, or PMDA accelerated pathway, the FDA Fast Track Designation and FDA Expanded Access Program, or EAP, in the United States. The CLI program in the European Union was awarded a Euro 7,600,000 (approximately $8,900,000) grant as part of the European Union’s Horizon 2020 program and to date we have received a portion of such grant.

Our PLX-PAD cell program in muscle recovery following surgery for hip fracture was also selected for the Adaptive Pathways pilot project of EMA and was awarded a Euro 7,400,000 (approximately $8,600,000) grant as part of the European Union’s Horizon 2020 program and to date we have received a portion of such grant.

Our second product candidate, PLX-R18, is under development in the United States for ARS via the FDA Animal Rule regulatory pathway, and, based on our assessment, is expected to advance to a pivotal trial, which may also result in approval without the prior performance of human efficacy trials. The National Institutes of Health’s National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases has completed a dose selection trial with our PLX-R18 product candidate in the hematologic component of ARS. Assuming we receive a contract from the U.S. government, we expect to initiate an ARS pivotal trial in the second half of 2019.

PLX-R18 is under development in the United States and Israel for the treatment of incomplete hematopoietic recovery following hematopoietic cell transplantation (“HCT”). In March 2019, we announced that we had fully enrolled the second cohort of six patients in our ongoing Phase I clinical study in HCT, and received data and safety monitoring board approval to continue to the final cohort of the study.

In July 2018, we entered into a strategic collaboration agreement with Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc. with the aim of advancing the fundamental knowledge of cell therapy industrialization and to improve quality control of the end-to-end supply chain. The collaboration will combine Thermo Fisher’s experience in cell therapy development and bio production scale up with our expertise in cell therapy manufacturing, clinical development and quality control.

In September 2018, we announced that the FDA granted Orphan Drug Designation to our PLX cell therapy for the treatment of graft failure and incomplete hematopoietic recovery following hematopoietic cell transplantation.

In October 2018, we announced that the FDA approved cost recovery for our PLX-PAD under an EAP held by World Trials, Inc., a privately-held third-party sponsor. In April 2019, we announced the initiation of our FDA approved EAP, with several site initiations in the U.S. Under the terms of the EAP, an initial 100 Rutherford-5 CLI patients who are ineligible for inclusion under our ongoing Phase 3 study protocol, and whose condition is life-threatening, can be enrolled.

In November 2018, we entered into a license agreement with a subsidiary of Chart Industries, Inc., or Chart, regarding our thawing device for cell-based therapies. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, Chart obtained the exclusive rights to manufacture and market the thawing device in all territories worldwide, excluding Greater China, and we are to receive royalties from sales of the product and supply of an agreed upon number of thawing devices. Royalties shall commence on the date of Chart’s first commercial sale of the thawing device.

In January 2019, we announced a successful one-year follow up of a compassionate use treatment in a Buerger’s disease patient treated with our PLX-PAD cell therapy.

In January 2019, we announced the receipt of a joint grant awarded by the Israeli Ministry of Defense and the IIA for the pre-clinical development of our PLX cells for the treatment of burn injuries. We are currently in discussions with the Israeli Ministry of Defense to define the structure of the collaboration.

In February 2019, we announced that the large-scale research initiative, RESTORE, of which we are a member, was nominated to be one of two finalists competing to be awarded up to €1 billion over the next 10 years by the European Commission for the development and advancement of transformative therapeutics.

In February 2019, we entered into a collaboration with NASA’s Ames Research Center to evaluate the potential of our PLX cell therapies in preventing and treating medical conditions caused during space missions.

In May 2019, we filed a U.S. provisional patent application titled “Methods and Compositions for Producing Cannabinoids,” which covers the use of our state-of-the-art, proprietary 3-D cell culturing technology for the potential manufacturing of cannabinoid-producing cells.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS – NINE AND THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2019 COMPARED TO NINE AND THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2018.

Revenues

Revenues for the nine month period ended March 31, 2019 were $53,500 as compared to $50,000 in the nine month period ended March 31, 2018. We did not receive any revenues for the three month period ended March 31, 2019. All revenues in the nine month periods ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 were related to the sale of our PLX cells for research use.

Research and Development Expenses, Net

Research and development expense, net (costs less participation and grants by the IIA and other parties) for the nine month period ended March 31, 2019 increased by 25% from $16,697,000 for the nine month period ended March 31, 2018 to $20,847,000. The increase is mainly attributed to: (1) an increase in subcontractor expenses related to some of our clinical studies, (2) an increase in materials consumption, (3) a decrease in IIA participation (approximately $900,000 was approved in calendar year 2018 compared to approximately $500,000 that was approved in calendar year 2019), and (4) an increase in stock-based compensation expenses due to the amount of restricted stock units and options granted. The increase was partially offset by a higher participation by the European Union with respect to the Horizon 2020 grants.

Research and development expense, net (costs less participation and grants by the IIA and other parties) for the three months ended March 31, 2019 increased by 23% from $6,382,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 to $7,827,000. The increase is mainly attributed to: (1) an increase in materials consumption, (2) a decrease in IIA participation (approximately $900,000 was approved in calendar year 2018 compared to approximately $500,000 that was approved in calendar year 2019), and (3) a lower participation by the European Union with respect to the Horizon 2020 grants. The increase was partially offset by a decrease in payroll expenses related to a decrease in the average number of employees.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses for the nine month period ended March 31, 2019 decreased by 18% from $8,349,000 for the nine month period ended March 31, 2018 to $6,806,000. This decrease is attributed to a decrease in stock-based compensation expenses related to the amount of restricted stock units granted and their vesting schedules, and a decrease in corporate activities expenses.

General and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2019 decreased by 7% from $2,666,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 to $2,473,000. This decrease is attributed to a decrease in stock-based compensation expenses related to the amount of restricted stock units granted and their vesting schedules. The decrease was partially offset by an increase in corporate activities expenses.

Financial Income, Net

Financial income, net, decreased from a net financial income of $7,810,000 for the nine month period ended March 31, 2018 to a net financial income of $54,000 for the nine month period ended March 31, 2019. This decrease is mainly due to the sale of our investments in marketable securities which occurred in the nine months ended March 31, 2018.

Financial income, net, decreased from a net financial income of $7,517,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 to a net financial income of $222,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2019. This decrease is mainly due to the sale of our investments in marketable securities which occurred in the three months ended March 31, 2018. The decrease was partially offset by changes in the fair value of our hedging instruments related to the strength of the U.S. dollar against the NIS.

Net Loss

Net loss for the nine and three month periods ended March 31, 2019 was $27,547,000 and $10,078,000, respectively, as compared to net loss of $17,145,000 and $1,531,000 for the nine and three month periods ended March 31, 2018, respectively. The changes were mainly due to a decrease in financial income and an increase in research and development expenses, as described above. Net loss per share for the nine and three month periods ended March 31, 2019 was $0.24 and $0.09, respectively, as compared to $0.16 and $0.01 for the nine and three month periods ended March 31, 2018.

For the nine and three month periods ended March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018, we had weighted average shares of common stock outstanding of 115,542,598, 117,225,522 and 104,107,748, 110,044,458, respectively, which were used in the computations of net loss per share for the nine and three month periods.

The increase in weighted average common shares outstanding reflects the issuance of additional shares mainly related to the issuances of shares to employees and consultants, issuances of shares pursuant to our At Market Issuance Sales Agreement, or the ATM Agreement, and our Open Market Sale Agreement^SM, or the Sale Agreement, and shares issued as a result of exercises of options.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2019, our total current assets were $13,196,000 and total current liabilities were $8,247,000. On March 31, 2019, we had a working capital surplus of $4,949,000, stockholders' equity of $8,627,000 and an accumulated deficit of $243,244,000. We finance our operations, and plan to continue doing so, from our existing cash, issuances of our securities and funds from grants from the IIA, European Union’s Horizon 2020 program, Israel’s Ministry of Economy, and other non-dilutive sources.

Our cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2019 amounted to $9,535,000 compared to $5,940,000 as of March 31, 2018, and compared to $8,821,000 as of June 30, 2018. Cash balances changed in the nine months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 for the reasons presented below.

Operating activities used cash of $22,780,000 in the nine months ended March 31, 2019, compared to $15,594,000 in the nine months ended March 31, 2018. Cash used in operating activities in the nine months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 consisted primarily of payments of salaries to our employees and payments of fees to our consultants, suppliers, subcontractors, and professional services providers, including the costs of clinical studies, offset by grants from the IIA, Horizon 2020, Israel’s Ministry of Economy and other research grants.

Investing activities provided cash of $19,685,000 in the nine months ended March 31, 2019, compared to cash provided of $204,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2018. The investing activities in the nine month period ended March 31, 2019 consisted primarily of the withdrawal of $19,908,000 of short term deposits, offset by payments of $217,000 related to investment in property and equipment and investment in long-term bank deposits of $6,000. The investing activities in the nine months ended March 31, 2018 consisted primarily of $20,321,000 related to investment in short term deposits, investment of $1,146,000 in marketable securities and payments of $219,000 related to investment in property and equipment, offset by cash provided from the sale and redemption of marketable securities of $21,890,000.

Financing activities generated cash of $3,825,000 during the nine months ended March 31, 2019, compared to $17,314,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2018. The cash generated in the nine months ended March 31, 2019 from financing activities is related to net proceeds of $3,710,000 from issuing shares of our common stock under our ATM Agreement and the Sale Agreement, proceeds of $107,000 related to a grant received from the Israel-United States Binational Industrial Research and Development Foundation and net proceeds of $8,000 from the exercise of options. The cash generated in the nine months ended March 31, 2018 from financing activities is related to net proceeds of $13,646,000 from issuing shares of our common stock in a public offering we conducted in October 2017, net proceeds of $2,412,000 from issuing shares of our common stock under our ATM Agreement, net proceeds of $1,168,000 from issuing shares of our common stock from the exercise of warrants and options and proceeds of $88,000 related to a grant received from the Israel-United States Binational Industrial Research and Development Foundation.

In July 2017, we entered into the ATM Agreement with FBR Capital Markets & Co., MLV & Co. LLC and Oppenheimer & Co. Inc., each an Agent, which provides that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions and limitations set forth in the ATM Agreement, we could elect, from time to time, to issue and sell shares of common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $80,000,000 through any of the Agents. We were not obligated to make any sales of common stock under the ATM Agreement. From July 2017 through February 4, 2019, we sold an aggregate of 5,305,408 shares of common stock pursuant to the ATM Agreement at an average price of $1.37 per share. On February 4, 2019, we notified the Agents of the termination of the ATM Agreement.

On February 6, 2019, we entered into the Sale Agreement, with Jefferies LLC, as agent, or Jefferies, pursuant to which we may issue and sell shares of our common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $50,000,000 from time to time through Jefferies. We are not obligated to make any sales of common stock under the Sale Agreement. From February 6, 2019 through March 31, 2019, we sold an aggregate of 2,018,000 shares of common stock pursuant to the Sale Agreement at an average price of $0.97 per share.

During the nine months ended March 31, 2019, we received cash of approximately $292,000 from the IIA towards our research and development expenses. According to the IIA grant terms, we are required to pay royalties at a rate of 3% on sales of products and services derived from technology developed using this and other IIA grants until 100% of the dollar-linked grants amount plus interest are repaid. In the absence of such sales, no payment is required. Through March 31, 2019, total grants obtained from the IIA aggregated to approximately $27,096,000 and total royalties paid and accrued amounted to $170,000.

The IIA has supported our activity in the past fourteen years. Our previous program, for the thirteen year, was approved by the IIA in 2018 and relates to a grant of approximately $900,000. The grant was used to cover research and development expenses for the period of January 1, 2018 to December 31, 2018. Our most recent program, for the fourteenth year, was approved by the IIA in 2019 and relates to a grant of approximately $500,000. The grant will be used to cover research and development expenses for the period of January 1, 2019 to December 31, 2019.

As of March 31, 2019, we received total grants of approximately $4,604,000 in cash from the European Union research and development consortiums pursuant to the Horizon 2020 program.

The currency of our financial portfolio is mainly in U.S. dollars and we use options contracts in order to hedge our exposures to currencies other than the U.S. dollar. For more information, please see Item 7A. - “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” in the 2018 Annual Report on form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018.

We have an effective Form S-3 registration statement, filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, using a “shelf” registration process. Under this shelf registration process, we may, from time to time, sell common stock, preferred stock and warrants to purchase common stock, and units of two or more of such securities in one or more offerings up to a total dollar amount of $200,000,000. As of May 6, 2019, we have sold 39,000,000 shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase up to 28,571,429 shares of common stock in a total gross amount of $36,051,000 in offerings we closed in October 2017 and April 2019, 5,305,408 shares of common stock in a total gross amount of $7,258,542 pursuant to the ATM Agreement, 2,018,000 shares of common stock in a total gross amount of $1,967,060 pursuant to the Sale Agreement, and may be deemed to have sold an additional $48,032,940 pursuant to the Sale Agreement.

On April 8, 2019, we sold, pursuant to an underwriting agreement relating to a firm commitment public offering, or the Public Offering, an aggregate of 28,571,429 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase 28,571,429 shares of common stock, inclusive of the underwriter’s over-allotment option which was exercised in full, for aggregate gross proceeds of $20,000,000. The warrants issued in the Public Offering are exercisable for a period of five years from issuance and have an exercise price of $0.70 per share. In addition, on April 8, 2019, we sold, pursuant to a subscription agreement with a certain investor in a registered direct offering, or the Registered Direct Offering, 1,428,571 shares of common stock, for aggregate gross proceeds of $1,000,000. The net proceeds from the Public offering and the Registered Direct Offering, after deducting underwriting commissions and discounts, and other offering expenses, were $19,467,000.

Outlook

We have accumulated a deficit of $243,244,000 since our inception in May 2001. We do not expect to generate any significant revenues from sales of products in the next twelve months. Our cash needs will increase in the foreseeable future. We expect to generate revenues, which in the short and medium terms will unlikely exceed our costs of operations, from the sale of licenses to use our technology or products.

We will be required to obtain additional liquidity resources in order to support the commercialization of our products and maintain our research and development and clinical trials activities.

We are continually looking for sources of funding, including non-diluting sources such as the IIA grants, the European Union grant and other research grants, collaboration with other companies and sales of our common stock.

As of March 31, 2019, our cash position (cash and cash equivalents and short-term bank deposits) totaled approximately $10,537,000. On April 8, 2019, we closed the Public Offering and Registered Direct Offering, for aggregate net proceeds of $19,467,000. We are addressing our liquidity issues by implementing initiatives to allow the continuation of our activities. Our current operating plan includes various assumptions concerning the level and timing of cash outflows for operating activities and capital expenditures. Our ability to successfully carry out our business plan, which includes a cost-reduction plan should we be unable to raise sufficient additional capital, is primarily dependent upon our ability to (1) obtain sufficient additional capital, (2) enter into license agreements to use or commercialize our products and (3) receive other sources of funding, including non-diluting sources such as the IIA grants, the Horizon 2020 grant and other grants. There are no assurances, however, that we will be successful in obtaining an adequate level of financing needed for the long-term development and commercialization of our products.

According to management’s estimates, liquidity resources as of March 31, 2019, together with the funds received from the Public Offering and Registered Direct Offering we closed on April 8, 2019, will be sufficient to maintain our operations into the beginning of the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2020. Our inability to raise funds to carry out our business plan will have a severe negative impact on our ability to remain a viable company.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off balance sheet arrangements.
