Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements
Note 1 – General
A. Reporting entity
Nano Dimension Ltd. (the “Company”) is an Israeli resident company incorporated in Israel. The address of the Company’s registered office is 2 Ilan Ramon St., Ness Ziona, Israel. The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements of the Company as of September 30, 2017, comprise the Company and its subsidiaries in Israel and in the United States (together referred to as the “Group”). The Company engages, by means of the subsidiary Nano Dimension Technologies Ltd. (“Nano–Technologies”), in the development of a three-dimensional (3D) printer and nanotechnology based conductive and dielectric inks, which are supplementary products to the 3D printer. The ordinary shares of the Company are registered for trade on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange. In addition, since March 2016, the Company’s American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”) have been trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market.
B. Since August 25, 2014, the Company has devoted substantially all of its financial resources to develop its products and has financed its operations primarily through the issuance of equity securities. The amount of the Company’s future net losses will depend, in part, on completing the development of its products, the rate of its future expenditures, its ability to generate significant revenues from the sale of its products, and its ability to obtain funding through the issuance of securities, strategic collaborations or grants. To date, the Group has just begun to commercialize its products and has generated insignificant revenues, mainly from operating leases of its 3D printers. The Group’s ability to generate revenue and achieve profitability depends on its ability to successfully complete the development of, and to commercialize, its products. The Group was able to obtain funding thus far and believes it has enough resources to fund its operations in the foreseeable future.
C. Material events in the reporting period
On May 17, 2017, the Company announced that it signed a private placement agreement with Ayalim Trust Funds, an Israeli institutional investor. As a part of these transactions, the Company issued an aggregate of 3,430,000 ordinary shares at a price per share of NIS 4.2. The total (gross) consideration to the Company was approximately NIS 14.4 million (approximately $4 million).
On June 1, 2017, the Company announced that it signed private placement agreements with Israeli and other non-U.S. investors. As a part of these transactions, the Company issued an aggregate of 4,044,050 ordinary shares at a price per share of NIS 4.2. The total (gross) consideration to the Company was approximately NIS 17 million (approximately $4.7 million).
On June 14, 2017, the Company announced that it signed private placement agreements with several Israeli investors. As a part of these transactions, the Company issued an aggregate of 4,078,759 ordinary shares at a price per share of NIS 4.2. The total (gross) consideration to the Company was approximately NIS 17.13 million (approximately $4.8 million).
The total (net) consideration to the Company for the above mentioned placements was approximately NIS 44.2 million (approximately $12.5 million).

Note 2 - Basis of Preparation
A. Statement of compliance
These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 Interim Financial Reporting and do not include all of the information required for full annual financial statements. They should be read in conjunction with the financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2016 (the “Annual Financial Statements”).
These condensed consolidated interim financial statements were authorized for issue by the Company’s Board of Directors on February 13, 2018.
B. Use of estimates and judgments
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The significant judgments made by management in applying the Group’s accounting policies and the principal assumptions used in the estimation of uncertainty were the same as those that applied to the Annual Financial Statements.
C. Convenience translation into U.S. dollars
For the convenience of the reader, the reported NIS figures as of September 30, 2017 and for the nine month period then ended, have been presented in dollars, translated at the representative rate of exchange as of September 30, 2017 (NIS 3.529 = $1.00). The dollar amounts presented in these financial statements should not be construed as representing amounts that are receivable or payable in dollars or convertible into dollars, unless otherwise indicated.
Below are details regarding the exchange rate of the U.S. dollar (“Dollar” or “$”):

Note 3 - Significant Accounting Policies
The accounting policies applied by the Group in these condensed consolidated interim financial statements are the same as those applied by the Group in its annual financial statements.
Presented hereunder is a description of the changes in accounting policies applied in these condensed consolidated interim financial statements:
Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. The cost of inventories is based on the first-in first-out (FIFO) principle, and includes expenditure incurred in acquiring the inventories and the costs incurred in bringing them to their existing location and condition. In the case of manufactured inventories and work in progress, cost includes an appropriate share of production overheads based on normal operating capacity. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and selling expenses.
A. New standards and interpretations not yet adopted
IFRS 16, Leases
Further to that mentioned in the disclosure on new standards and interpretations not yet adopted in the note regarding significant accounting policies in the Annual Financial Statements, the Group has not yet commenced examining the effects of adopting IFRS 16 on the financial statements and has no plans for early application.
Note 4 - Contingent Liabilities
Presented hereunder are details of material changes in contingent liabilities and provisions, if any.
On March 19, 2015, a claim was filed seeking damages in the amount of NIS 20,000,000 against the Company, Nano-Technologies, shareholders of the Company, officers and employees of the Group (together, the “Defendants”). The claim was filed by a third party (the “Plaintiff”) alleging that commercial secrets and technology that were developed by the Original Defendents in the field of 3-D printing were misappropriated, allegedly, through an officer and an additional employee of the Group that were employed by the Plaintiff in the past. In addition, the Plaintiff sought, among others, to order the Defendants, if the claim was accepted, to cease to make use of the allegedly misappropriated know-how and technology, and assign the rights to certain patents and patent applications owned by the Group to the Plaintiff.
On March 20, 2017, the Company announced that the Company and the Plaintiff reached a settlement agreement. As a part of the settlement agreement, the parties agreed that the legal proceedings will end, and the lawsuit against the Company will be dismissed, without any material effect on the Company’s activity. On March 19, 2017, the court approved the dismissal of the lawsuit.

● | “dollars” or “$” means United States dollars; and | |
● | “NIS” means New Israeli Shekels. |
You should read the following discussion and analysis in conjunction with our unaudited consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and notes thereto, and together with our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016 and notes thereto filed with the SEC as part of our Annual Report.
Overview
We are a leading additive electronics provider. We manufacture proprietary three dimensional, or 3D, printers and inks. With our unique 3D printing technology, we are targeting the growing demand for electronic devices that require increasingly sophisticated features and rely on encapsulated sensors, antennas and printed circuit boards. Additive manufacturing industry analysts predict that 3D printed electronics is likely to be the next high-growth application for product innovation, with its market size forecasted to reach $2.8 billion by 2025.
We began commercializing our first professional grade DragonFly 2020 Pro 3D printer during the fourth quarter of 2017, after successfully completing a year-long beta program with tier-1 users and partners. The first of its kind 3D printer uses our proprietary inks and integrated software to quickly create functional electronics such as multilayered printed circuit boards (PCBs), sensors, conductive geometries, antennas, molded connected devices and other devices for rapid prototyping and custom additive manufacturing of smart products.
Traditionally, electronic circuitry is developed through a back-and-forth process that involves design, trial and error and third-party manufacturer outsourcing. We believe that the traditional process for developing complex and advanced electronics is outdated and in need of a modern technological solution. Until now, 3D printing technology has been unable to offer a solution for the electronics and professional PCB prototype market, mainly because of the difficulty of printing multiple layers of electrically conductive and dielectric materials at high resolution that is suitable for professional electronics. We are the first to develop an integrated solution that includes a 3D printer, inkjet technology and software, that together delivers groundbreaking nano-technology. Our integrated solution is redefining and shaping how connected products are designed and made.
Our DragonFly 2020 Pro 3D printer uses proprietary liquid nano-conductive and dielectric inks that are designed specifically to print multilayered circuitry and 3D electronics. We believe that our DragonFly 2020 Pro 3D printer will obviate the reliance on third-party manufacturers during the development, short run manufacturing and prototyping of smart products, such as multilayered PCBs, sensors, conductive geometries, antennas, molded connected devices and other devices.
As a part of scaling our sales operations, we have recently opened two Customer Experience Centers (CECs), one in Israel and one in the United States. The new CECs are designed to accelerate the adoption of additive manufacturing for electronics development and will also serve as customer and reseller training facilities and sales support centers. We also intend to expand our marketing and channel activities in 2018, including doubling our resellers network and forming alliances with industry leaders.
Financial Highlights
● | Total revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 were NIS 1,459,000 ($414,000), compared to zero in the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The fourth quarter of 2016 was the first quarter in which Nano Dimension generated revenues. | |
● | Net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 was NIS 48,437,000 ($13,726,000), or NIS 0.88 ($0.25) per ordinary share, compared to NIS 19,633,000 ($5,224,000), or NIS 0.52 ($0.14) per ordinary share, in the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The increase is mainly attributed to the increase in research and development, or R&D, expenses as a result of the cessation of the capitalization of development costs in the fourth quarter of 2016. During the fourth quarter of 2016, we started delivering our products to beta customers and as such, we started to amortize the intangible assets arising from capitalization of development expenses. In subsequent periods, capitalized development expenditure is measured at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses. The estimated useful lives of the capitalized development costs for the current period is 10 years. | |
● | Cash totaled NIS 42,265,000 ($11,976,000) as of September 30, 2017, compared to NIS 47,599,000 ($12,379,000) on December 31, 2016. The decrease compared to December 31, 2016 mainly reflects the cash used during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 for operations and acquisition of property plant and equipment, less the proceeds received from private placements that occurred in the second quarter of 2017. | |
● | Shareholders’ equity totaled NIS 76,501,000 ($21,677,000) as of September 30, 2017, compared to NIS 74,218,000 ($19,302,000) as of December 31, 2016. |

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2017 Compared with Nine Months Ended September 30, 2016
Revenues. Our revenues are derived primarily from lease of printers to beta customers and from ink deliveries to those customers. Total revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 were NIS 1,459,000 ($414,000), compared to zero in the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The fourth quarter of 2016 was the first quarter in which Nano Dimension generated revenues.

Cost of Revenues. Cost of revenues consists of depreciation of the leased printers, cost of maintenance, and ink costs, as well as amortization of intangible assets. In the fourth quarter of 2016, we began to amortize the intangible asset arising from capitalization of development expenses. The estimated useful lives of the capitalized development costs for the current period is 10 years. Our cost of revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 were NIS 2,498,000 ($708,000), compared to zero in the nine months ended September 30, 2016. Cost of revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 consists of NIS 492,000 ($140,000) in respect of depreciation of the leased printers, cost of maintenance, and ink costs, and an additional NIS 2,006,000 ($568,000) in respect of amortization of intangible assets. We did not have cost of revenues in prior years.
Research and Development. R&D, expenses consist primarily of salaries of employees engaged in on-going research and development activities, materials, rent, and other related costs. R&D expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 were NIS 30,930,000 ($8,765,000), compared to NIS 6,108,000 ($1,625,000) in the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The increase is mostly a result of the cessation of the capitalization of development costs in the fourth quarter of 2016. The R&D expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 are presented net of government grants in the amount of NIS 535,000 ($152,000).
Sales, marketing and general and administrative. Sales, marketing and general and administrative expenses consist primarily of professional services expenses, salaries of sales, marketing and general and administrative employees, travel and related expenses, directors fees, and other administrative costs. Sales, marketing and general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 were NIS 13,621,000 ($3,860,000), compared to NIS 12,975,000 ($3,453,000) in the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The increase resulted primarily from an increase in payroll and related expenses.
Finance income and Finance expense. Finance income and expenses consist of bank fees, revaluation of liability in respect of government grants, and exchange rate differences. Finance expenses, net, for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 were NIS 2,847,000 ($807,000), compared to NIS 550,000 ($146,000) in the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The increase resulted primarily from an increase in exchange rate differences.
Operating Loss. Based on the foregoing, we recorded an operating loss of NIS 45,590,000 ($12,919,000) for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to NIS 19,083,000 ($5,078,000) in the nine months ended September 30, 2016.
Net Loss. Net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 was NIS 48,437,000 ($13,726,000), or NIS 0.88 ($0.25) per ordinary share, compared to NIS 19,633,000 ($5,224,000), or NIS 0.52 ($0.14) per ordinary share, in the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The increase is mainly attributed to the increase in R&D expenses as described above.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
From August 2014 through September 30, 2017, we have funded our operations principally with NIS 150,828,000 ($40,256,000) from the issuance of ordinary shares and warrants. As of September 30, 2017, we had NIS 42,265,000 ($11,976,000) in cash and cash equivalents.

The net cash provided by financing activities in the nine months ended September 30, 2016 of NIS 47,282,000 ($12,582,000) consisted primarily of net proceeds from the issuance of ordinary shares.
Outlook
We have financed our operations to date primarily through proceeds from issuance of our ordinary shares. We have incurred losses and generated negative cash flows from operations since 2012. To date, we have generated insignificant revenues from the sale and lease of our products. In the second half of 2017, we ended our beta plan and started commercial sales of our 3D printer and ink products.
In light of our cash balances and other factors, including our ability to generate cash from operations, we believe that our existing capital resources will be adequate to satisfy our working capital and capital expenditure requirements for a period of no less than the next 12 months. However, we expect that we will require additional capital to support our commercialization efforts.
In addition, our operating plans may change as a result of many factors that may currently be unknown to us, and we may need to seek additional funds sooner than planned. Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including:
● | the progress and costs of our research and development activities; | |
● | the progress in the launch of the commercial version of our DragonFly 2020 3D printer; |
● | the costs of manufacturing our 3D printer and ink products; | |
● | the costs of filing, prosecuting, enforcing and defending patent claims and other intellectual property rights; | |
● | the potential costs of contracting with third parties to provide marketing and distribution services for us or for building such capacities internally; and | |
● | the magnitude of our general and administrative expenses. |
Until we can generate significant recurring revenues, we expect to satisfy our future cash needs through debt or equity financings. We cannot be certain that additional funding will be available to us on acceptable terms, if at all. If funds are not available, we may be required to delay, reduce the scope of, or eliminate research or development plans for, or commercialization efforts with respect to our products. This may raise substantial doubts about our ability to continue as a going concern.
