BACKGROUND

 

This Management’s Discussion and Analysis (“MD&A”) should be read in conjunction with the unaudited, consolidated financial statements and notes thereto of Femto Technologies Inc. (“Femto” or the “Company”) for the three-month period ended March 31, 2025 (the “Financial Statements”). The information contained in this MD&A is current to May 15, 2025.

 

The Financial Statements have been prepared in compliance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. In accordance with IFRS, management is required to make assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and expenses in addition to the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reporting amounts. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience, current trends and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. However, actual results could differ materially from those estimates. See Note 2 to the Financial Statements for management’s analysis of the Company’s critical accounting estimates.

 

Additional information relating to the Company, including the Company’s Form 20-F Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2024, is available under the Company’s profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.

 

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND RISK FACTORS

 

This MD&A contains certain statements that may constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Canadian securities laws. Forward-looking statements include but are not limited to, statements regarding future anticipated business developments and the timing thereof, regulatory compliance, sufficiency of working capital, business and financing plans, and the Company’s intended use of proceeds from the sale of its securities. Although the Company believes that such forward-looking statements are reasonable at the time they are made, it can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to be correct. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by words such as: believe, expect, anticipate, intend, estimate, postulate and similar expressions, or which by their nature refer to future events. The Company cautions investors that forward-looking statements are inherently subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties and other known and unknown factors that could cause actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied in forward-looking statements. Such factors, include, without limitation, the Company’s ability to continue its projected growth, to raise the necessary capital or to be fully able to implement its business strategies. Other factors that could affect actual results are uncertainties pertaining to government regulations, both domestic as well as foreign, and the changes within the capital markets. Further risks and uncertainties are disclosed under the section “Risk Management”.

 

GOING CONCERN

 

The Financial Statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the Company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its shareholders, the ability of the Company to generate revenue to establish profitable operations and to obtain the necessary equity or debt financing to fund operations as required.

 

 

 

 

OUTLOOK

 

The Company’s primary focus for the foreseeable future will be: (i) the continuation of its current software business, and (ii) the development of the Sensera device (formerly the EZ-G device), a unique, patent-pending device that, combined with proprietary software, regulates the flow of low-concentration cannabidiol (“CBD”) oils into the soft tissues of the female sexual organs (the “Sensera Device”).

 

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

 

Femto Technologies Inc. (formerly known as BYND Cannasoft Enterprises Inc.) was amalgamated under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) on March 29, 2021.

 

Recent Developments

 

On May 15, 2025, the Company announced stock repurchase program to repurchase up to 43,025 subordinate voting shares of the Company.

 

On May 13, 2025, the Company announced the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office granted the Company a notice of allowance for use of its Sensera design.

 

·On May 9, 2025, the Company announced that it has received on May 8, 2025 a notification letter from Nasdaq stating that based on its review of the Company’s recent private placement transaction that was completed on February 26, 2025 (the “Placement”), Nasdaq has determined to delist the Company’s securities pursuant to its discretionary authority under Listing Rule 5101.

 

The Company intends to appeal Staff’s determination to a Hearings Panel (the “Panel”), pursuant to the procedures set forth in the Nasdaq Listing Rule 5800 Series. A hearing request will stay the suspension of the Company’s securities pending the Panel’s decision.

 

On May 7, 2025, the Company announced the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office granted the Company a notice of allowance for use of its proprietary smart release system technology.

 

On April 22, 2025, the Company effected a 1-for-500 reverse stock split of its outstanding Subordinate Voting Shares.

 

On February 28, 2025, the Company completed the transactions contemplated under a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with institutional investors for the purchase and sale of approximately US$17 million of Subordinate Voting Shares and pre-funded and investor warrants at a price of us$4.17 per Subordinate Voting Unit. The offering (the “Private Placement”) consisted of the sale of Subordinate Voting Units (or Pre-Funded Units), each consisting of (i) one Subordinate Voting Share or Pre-Funded Warrant, (ii) one Series A Warrant to purchase one Subordinate Voting Share per warrant (the “Series A Warrants”) and (iii) one Series B Warrant to purchase one Subordinate Voting Share per warrant (the “Series B Warrants”). The offering price per Subordinate Voting Unit was US$4.17 (or US$4.16999 for each Pre-Funded Unit, which is equal to the offering price per Subordinate Voting Unit sold in the offering minus an exercise price of US$0.00001 per Pre-Funded Warrant). The Pre-Funded Warrants are immediately exercisable. The initial exercise price of each Series A Warrant is US$5.21 per Subordinate Voting Share. The Series A Warrants are exercisable immediately and expire 60 months after the Release Date (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) and may be exercised on a cashless basis if there is not then an effective registration covering the resale of the Subordinate Voting Shares underlying the Series A Warrants. The number of securities issuable under the Series A Warrant is subject to adjustment as described in the Series A Warrant. The initial exercise price of each Series B Warrant is US$12.51 per Subordinate Voting Share. They also include an alternative cashless exercise option, allowing the holder to exercise the Series B Warrant at any time and receive three Subordinate Voting Shares for each Subordinate Voting Share then underlying the Series B Warrant without additional consideration. The Series B Warrants are exercisable immediately and expire 30 months after the Release Date. The number of securities issuable under the Series B Warrant is subject to adjustment as described in the Series B Warrant.

 

 

 

 

On February 26, 2025, the Company also entered into a placement agent agreement (the “Placement Agreement”) with Aegis Capital Corp. (“Aegis”), pursuant to which the Company engaged Aegis to act as its sole placement agent in connection with the offering. Pursuant to the terms of the Placement Agreement, Aegis agreed to use its best efforts to arrange for the sale of the securities in the offering. As compensation to the placement agent, the Company paid the placement agent placement commission equal to 15.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds from the offering. Aegis will also receive a fee of 10.0% of the proceeds from the cash exercise of any warrants currently outstanding or issued in the Placement, payable on exercise. In addition, the Company agreed to reimburse Aegis for certain out-of-pocket expenses, including reasonable legal fees and disbursements for its counsel.

 

On February 26, 2025, the Company entered into an exchange agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) with certain holders of tranches of warrants to purchase Subordinate Voting Shares previously issued by the Company in March 2024 and December 2023 (collectively, the “Old Warrants”). Under the Exchange Agreement, such holders agreed to exchange with the Company some of the outstanding Old Warrants for 2,495,933 new warrants (the “Exchange Warrants”) to purchase Subordinate Voting Shares, substantially similar to the Series B Warrants issued in the Private Placement. If the exercise price of the Exchange Warrants are adjusted to the floor of US$0.76, up to 123,253,146 Subordinate Voting Shares would be issuance upon the exercise of the Exchange Warrants. As a result of the Exchange Agreement, Old Warrants that were exchanged were cancelled as of that date.

As described on the Prospectus, the Company intends to use the net proceeds from this offering primarily for product design and manufacturing of the Sensera Device, sales and marketing campaigns, patent prosecution ,working capital and development of additional products based on the Company’s technology and identification and acquisition of Cannabis companies with a focus on the CBD sector as an alternative to building growing cannabis farms.

 

 

 

 

Female Technology (FemTech)

 

As part of the Company’s new strategy, and following the development of the Sensera Device, aimed at the technology field of the female wellness world, the Company intends to work to further pursue business opportunities in the world of FemTech, which is estimated at tens of billions of dollars a year3.

 

To this end, the Company intends to focus in the coming years on the development of additional products for the female wellness world, both at the level of technology and at the level of materials, some of which we expect will be CBD-based.

 

Following this new strategy the Company has changed its name to Femto Technologies.

 

Femto, a pioneer in women’s care technology innovation, is committed to advancing women’s wellness and lifestyle, leveraging its proprietary “Smart Release Technology,” or SRT, and core ability to innovate data-driven products to spearhead the development of smart products in the sectors of intimacy, sports, hair, and cosmetics.

 

The Company’s flagship intimacy product, equipped with SRT technology, an app, and machine learning personalized abilities, is in its final pre-launch stages. With the Global Wellness Institute predicting the women’s wellness economy’s growth to reach $8.5 trillion by 20273, Femto is positioned at the forefront of technological innovation.

 

Innovative Product Line-Up

 

Femto’s hope is to redefine skincare with its smart cosmetic face device, utilizing smart release technology alongside interchangeable serum capsules. This innovation allows users to seamlessly transition between treatments, catering to a variety of skin needs. The integration of LED light therapy and gentle vibrations ensures optimal serum absorption, making every skincare a smart and personalized experience.

 

In the hair wellness arena, Femto’s proprietary technology has given rise to an innovative hair growth brush, designed to optimize hair treatment. By combining LED light therapy, gentle vibrations, and essential nutrient capsules, this brush aims to foster an ideal environment for hair growth, ensuring comprehensive care for every hair follicle.

 

Venturing into women’s sports, Femto’s development of a muscle pain relief regulator illustrates the company’s dedication to enhancing athletic performance and recovery. This wearable technology merges heat therapy, vibration, and gel application in a user-friendly design, offering targeted relief and muscle recovery support.

Sensera Device Business

 

Zigi Carmel is the registered owner the Sensera Device. According to research1 conducted across the globe, treatment with low-concentration CBD oils can relieve candida, dryness, scars, and many other female health issues. Numerous studies2 have shown CBD interacts with the endocannabinoid system, a master regulatory system with receptors all around the body. By activating these receptors, CBD can have health benefits that help have sex more approachable and pleasurable by reducing stress, enhancing one’s mood, promoting body comfort, and treating vaginal issues.

The Company continues to pursue patent application approvals for the Sensera device, including the filing of 11 national phase applications in different countries and jurisdictions including Europe, Japan, China and the US. The Company filed “Medical Adult Toy” and “Smart Adult Toy” national phase patent applications in January 2024. We estimate the cost to pursue patent application approvals in all 11 jurisdictions to be $100,000. The patent approval process follows these steps: filing of an application, examination, publication and approval or rejection of the patent application. The timeline for the patent process from filing to approval varies depending on the jurisdiction (Europe 3-5 years, US and Japan 2-3 years, China up to 2 years). The Company’s ‘Go to Market’ strategic plan is based on combined Business to Business (“B2B”) and Business to Consumer (“B2C”) sales.

 

As of the date of this MD&A, the Company has:

 

1.completed the design of the following modules: ergonomic, configuration, concept, industrial design and design for manufacturing;

 

2.in the hardware space, developed the mainboard of the device, side board, sensors for humidity, heat and heartbeat;

 

3.in the engineering space, performed proof of concept and industrial design inputs;

 

4.in the firmware space, developed software design details, system test and configurations;

 

5.in the user experience/user interface (“UX/UI”) space, developed the software and application screens, including the application design and characterization;

 

6.filed various Patent Cooperation Treaty (“PCT”) applications covering mechanical, system logic, and design aspects of the Sensera Device; and

 

 

 

 

7.filed national patent applications in 11 countries, including the USA and countries in the EU.

 

8.Started production in small quantities.

 

9.filed various design applications for the lubricant the capsules in 4 different countries.

 

The Company also developed the following enhancements for the product:

 

Unique Pump Design - Efficient Resource Monitoring: The Sensera Device features a miniature pump design with liquid flow capabilities precisely tailored to meet the system’s requirements.

 

Suction Mechanism - Navigating Legal Constraints: In response to legal restrictions and guidance from the patent office, we have developed a unique vacuum mechanism for the device with a peristaltic pump based on an expired 1911 patent.

 

Moisture Detection Sensor - Triple Sensor Synergy: Integrating three sensors—motion, liquid amount, and friction detection—was essential for the development of the moisture detection sensor. Their combination allows us to identify friction in relation to the amount of liquid around the product and enhances its functionality.

 

Pelvic Floor Games- Training for Well-Being: Most women face pelvic floor weakness at some point in their life, causing pain and decrease in libido. We identified existing devices (not combined with vibrators) designed for training and strengthening these muscles, offering a potential solution to enhance users’ quality of life. Creating unique training programs makes strengthening these muscles enjoyable, encouraging users to persist. Additionally, the programs provide feedback on internal muscles, offering a personalized way to track their progress.

 

Vaginal Pulse Sensor - Innovative Experience Measurement: We recognized that pulse measurement is a valuable way to assess user experience. It also allows us to confirm the fact that the vibrator is inserted into the body. We developed a pulse sensor specifically designed for the vagina - an innovation not previously explored. To validate its effectiveness, we built an experimental model and conducted successful testing with an experimenter. This experiment confirmed the sensor’s suitability for measuring pulse within the vaginal environment, contributing to the product’s ability to gather more information and to assess the user’s experience.

 

Smart Delivery System Potential: The smart delivery system, initially developed here for intimate use, has the potential to extend into other product fields. We identified possibilities in diverse sectors such as cosmetics and sport therapy devices. These areas will require additional research, but we anticipate substantial opportunities for innovation and marketing in these domains.

 

Sphere Development - Elevating UX/UI Experience: Recognizing the smart nature of both the Sensera Device and its accompanying application in development, that in the future will feature machine learning and AI capabilities, we prioritized creating a high-end UX/UI communication experience. The innovative sphere feature serves as a futuristic element, providing infrastructure preparation for artificial intelligence and machine learning, modules for implementation in the device (similar to interfaces like SIRI).

 

The first full functional prototype of the Sensera Device is now ready. The Company plans to go to market in the third quarter of 2025 and start selling the device worldwide based on patents that have been filed in different countries.

 

 

 

 

In order to go to market, the Company needs to test the protype and commence manufacturing of the Sensera Device. As the initial version of the product will be recreational, no regulatory approvals are required provided that the oils and lubricants will not contain cannabis products that require FDA approval. In any event the company intends as part of its business plan to manufacture lubricants and oils that don’t include cannabis products.

 

As of March 31, 2025, and since the completion of the Zigi Carmel acquisition, the Company has invested $3,813,013 in the development of the Sensera Device, as described above, and $275,223 in patent applications. The Company expects that the investments to be made in the next 3 months will be decreased as the Company gets closer to launching the product in the market.

CRM Software Business

 

The Company’s wholly owned subsidiary–BYND - Beyond Solutions Ltd. (“BYND Israel”), a corporation incorporated under the laws of the State of Israel, develops and markets customer relationship management (CRM) software products that enable small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) to optimize day to day functions, such as sales management, workforce management, contact center operations and asset management. BYND Israel currently offers a proprietary CRM software product known as “Benefit CRM” (our “Benefit CRM Software”) to its customers. BYND Israel has been developing the next generation of its Benefit CRM Software (our “New CRM Platform”), which is cloud based and includes many new features and enhancements.

 

CRM Cannabis Software Business

 

BYND Israel has also developed a new, CRM software platform, designed specifically to serve the unique needs of the medical cannabis sector (our “New Cannabis CRM Platform”).

 

The development of the New Cannabis CRM Platform was initiated with clear objectives aligned with our organizational priorities, as follows:

 

Enhance operational efficiency and streamline processes within the cannabis cultivation domain.
Ensure regulatory compliance and mitigate risks inherent in the industry.

Improve data-driven decision-making and optimize resource allocation to maximize yield and profitability.

 

 

 

 

The functionalities of the New Cannabis CRM Platform include:

 

Real-time monitoring of environmental conditions.
Automated control of irrigation and nutrient delivery systems.
Tracking of inventory levels and batch traceability.
Generation of customizable reports and analytics powered by BI tools.
Integration of AI algorithms for predictive analytics and optimization.
Intuitive user interface design for enhanced usability.
Seamless integration with IoT sensors and CRM systems.

 

As of the date of this MD&A, the development of the New Cannabis CRM Platform has been completed and we are working to locate potential paying customers for the software in Israel. There is no more investment needed in this CRM Cannabis Software other than an investment in a marketing and sales team is estimated at $150,000. Due to significant negative changes in the medical cannabis market around the world, and particularly in Israel we have doubt regarding the ability to generate revenues from this platform.

 

Medical Cannabis Business

 

The Israeli cannabis market has experienced a very significant upheaval in recent years, and most of the negative impact was done to the growing farms considering the opening of cannabis import channels to Israel. As a result, there has been significant consolidation in the growing field and many growing farms and processing plants have closed, including the oldest growers and producers in Israel. At the same time, the retail prices of medical cannabis in Israel have also dropped significantly, all this leads to economic unfeasibility for building a growing farm and investing enormous resources in its ongoing maintenance. Moreover, the ongoing state of war has severely affected the entire agricultural sector in Israel, especially in areas close to the border with Gaza, such as Moshav Kochav Michael, where the company planned to build the farms, it is currently unknown how long this situation will continue and what the long-term

damage and implications will be for the sector.

 

BYND Israel’s original goal was to leverage its medical cannabis business to assist in the development of its New Cannabis CRM Platform by using data generated by the operation of the Company’s planned cannabis growing facility, including data relating to the growing, harvesting and selling of medical cannabis. However, the Company’s board of directors took the decision to suspend activities related to construction of the cannabis growing facility. This decision was taken in light of management’s observation of significant negative changes in the medical cannabis market around the world, and particularly in Israel, that have taken place since the time the Company was established, in addition to the lack of funds for the required budget for the construction of the facility, and in light of the ongoing war involving the State of Israel and the proximity of the area designated for cultivation to the border with Gaza.

 

The Company’s board of directors reconsidered the suspension in July 2024 and decided to extend the suspension at least until April 2025 and then decided to extend the suspension on April 2025 to at least December 2025. Once a decision is made to proceed with the construction of the cannabis growing facility, the required permits necessary to begin the construction will need to be obtained once the Initial Authorizations have been formally transferred from Dalia Bzizinsky to BYBY. This transfer must be approved by the Israeli Ministry of Health Medical Cannabis Unit which will occur following approval of the Ministry of Agriculture to a change in land designation. BYBY estimates it will cost approximately $100,000 to complete the permitting process, which costs would be funded from general working capital.

 

 

 

 

On May 27, 2024, pursuant to an Agreement Dated May 27, 2024, the Company issued 450,000 Subordinate Voting Shares (26,471 subordinate voting shares post reverse split) (valued at US$400,500) as a guarantee to Dalia Bzizinsky following the Company’s decision to suspend the construction of a cannabis farm on that property.

 

The Company will continue renewing the Initial Authorizations that expire on November 29, 2025 until a final decision is made regarding the construction of a cannabis farm.

 

Currently, the Company is actively searching for opportunities outside of Israel in the CBD and medical cannabis space for collaborations or acquisitions.

September 30, 2023   202,058    (1,439,785)   (59,185)
June 30, 2023   251,047    (1,147,324)   (48,875)

 

For the last eight quarters, the Company has maintained steady levels of revenues from its CRM business with a pattern of higher revenues in the first quarter of each fiscal year due to higher software licenses paid at that time.

 

Losses increased starting in the second quarter of 2022 primarily due to higher general and administrative expenses as well as increasing professional fees incurred due to the Company’s NASDAQ listing. These expenses are mainly for investor relations and public relations expenses as well as digital marketing, professional fees for financial advisory, M&A and corporate finance, legal fees and accounting fees.

 

Loss for the fourth quarter of 2023 was significantly higher due to an impairment loss of $13,142,481, which includes full impairment of our investment in the planned cannabis growing facility and the intangible assets in our Initial Authorizations and our New Cannabis CRM Platform as well as partial impairment of our Sensera Device patent applications.

 

Loss for the first quarter of 2024 was significantly higher due to a change in fair value of derivative warrants liabilities in the amount of $28,977,934.

 

 

 

 

The Company considered indicators of impairment for the patent applications at September 30, 2024. The Company decided to impair the patent applications in the amount of $5,601,167 due to delays with the development and production of the Sensera device due to the war conditions in Israel. The forecasts for the revenue the Company anticipates generating from these patent applications are still valid but the expected income from the Sensera device is delayed.

 

The Company intends to consider indicators of impairment for the patents pending every quarter.

 

The Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRS. The MD&A should be read in conjunction with the Financial Statements.

The Company is exposed in varying degrees to a variety of risks. The Company’s directors approve and monitor the risk management processes, inclusive of documented investment policies, counterparty limits, and controlling and reporting structures. The type of risk exposure and the way in which such exposure is managed is provided as follows:

 

Credit Risk

 

Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the other party by failing to discharge an obligation. The Company’s exposure to credit risk is the carrying value of cash and amounts receivable.

 

For amounts due from customers, the Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and monitors the receivable balance and the payments made in order to determine if an allowance for estimated credit losses is required. When determining the allowance for estimated credit losses the Company will consider historical experience with the customer, current market and industry conditions and any specific collection issues.

 

Interest Rate Risk

 

Interest Rate risk is the risk that the fair value of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. Loans payable include variable interest rates; however, the Company does not believe it is exposed to material interest rate risk.

 

Foreign Exchange Rate Risk

 

The Company is exposed to foreign exchange rate risks as the Company has a surplus of financial assets over financial liabilities denominated in USD as of March 31, 2025, consisting of cash in the sum of $22,867,907. As of March 31, 2025, a 5% depreciation or appreciation of the U.S. dollar against the NIS would have resulted in an approximate $1,143,395 decrease or increase, respectively, in total pre-tax profit.

 

 

 

 

Liquidity Risk

 

Liquidity risk is the risk that an entity will encounter difficulty in raising funds to meet commitments associated with financial instruments. The total amount of the Company’s financial liabilities according to the contractual conditions in non-capitalized amounts (including interest payments) as at March 31, 2025, for the next 5 years and over is $603,002. To secure the additional capital necessary to pursue its plans, the Company may have to raise additional funds through equity or debt financing.

 

Limited Financial Resources Risk

 

The Company’s board of directors has currently suspended plans to develop its planned cannabis growing facility. The Company has limited financial resources and operating revenues and its ability to move forward with plans to develop the cannabis growing facility, if the Company’s board of directors takes such decision, are dependent upon management’s success in raising additional capital. Failure to obtain additional financing could result in the further delay or indefinite postponement of the development of its planned cannabis growing facility and the Company would likely be unable to carry out its stated business objectives involving the cannabis facility.

 

While the Company has been successful until now in obtaining financing from the capital markets, there can be no assurance that the capital markets will remain favorable in the future, and/or that the Company will be able to raise the financing needed to pursue its business objectives on favorable terms, or at all. Restrictions on the Company’s ability to finance could have a materially adverse outcome on the Company and its securities, and its ability to continue as a going concern.

 

Market Risk

 

The Company’s Subordinate Voting shares trade on the NASDAQ and the trading value thereof is determined by the evaluations, perceptions and sentiments of both individual investors and the investment community taken as a whole. Such evaluations, perceptions and sentiments are subject to change, both in short-term time horizons and longer-term time horizons. An adverse change in investor evaluations, perceptions and sentiments could have a material adverse outcome on the Company and its securities.

 

Business Risks relating to our CRM Business and Cannabis Software

 

The Company is exposed to various risks relating to its CRM software business, as follows:

 

Defects or disruptions in our cloud-based New CRM Platform and New Cannabis CRM Platform services could diminish demand for our services and subject us to substantial liability.

 

Interruptions or delays in service from our third-party data center hosting facilities could impair the delivery of our service and harm our business.

 

If we experience significant fluctuations in our rate of anticipated growth and fail to balance our expenses with our revenue forecasts, our results could be harmed.

 

We may in the future be sued by third parties for alleged infringement of their proprietary rights.

 

We will rely on third-party computer hardware and software that may be difficult to replace or which could cause errors or failures of our service.

 

The market for our technology delivery model and enterprise cloud computing application services is immature and volatile, and if it develops more slowly than we expect, our business could be harmed.

 

 

 

 

We are currently dependent on one of our clients for the majority of current revenues and any changes to that relationship could have a significant impact on future revenues.

 

In the past two years, there has been a significant change in the field of global medical cannabis, particularly in the State of Israel. Burdensome regulation, blocking of exports and approval of imports has caused a significant drop in prices and aggressive consolidation in the growers’ market to the point of closing most of the growing farms in Israel, as a result, we expect difficulty in marketing cannabis software and a decrease in expected revenues from this field.

 

Business Risks relating to our proposed Cannabis Business

 

The Company has suspended its activity regarding the construction of a medical cannabis farm. See “Medical Cannabis Business”. If the Company decides to renew this project, the following risk factors will have to be taken under consideration:

 

The Company does not yet have sufficient financial resources to complete construction of the medical cannabis facility and there is no guarantee that we will be able to raise the necessary capital, either through debt or equity financing, or in either case, on favorable terms.

 

Our cannabis facility business will be dependent on our obtaining certain licences and certain GSP and GAP good practice certifications, which if not maintained in good standing, may prevent us from being able to carry on or expand our operations.

 

We will face risks inherent in an agricultural business, and an inability to grow crops successfully will interrupt our business activities.

 

We will be relying on one key production facility, and disruption of operations at this facility could significantly interfere with our ability to continue our product testing, development and production activities.

 

We will rely on key components of our production and distribution process, such as energy and third-party producers and distributors, and a disruption in the availability of those key components, or in increase in their cost, could adversely impact our business.

 

Manufacturing difficulties, disruptions or delays could limit supply of our products and limit our product sales. Producing cannabis products is difficult, complex and highly regulated.

 

We are subject to environmental, health and safety regulations and risks, which may subject us to liability under environmental laws.

 

We are dependent on the success of our quality control systems, which may fail and cause a disruption of our business and operations.

 

The success of our branded cannabis products business will depend on the success of the cannabis product candidates we develop. To date, we have not developed any cannabis products, and we do not expect to generate revenue from any cannabis products that we develop in the near future.

 

Unfavorable publicity or unfavorable consumer perception of us or cannabis generally may constrain our sales and revenue.

 

 

 

 

Business Risks relating to our Sensera Device

 

We have never generated any revenue from product sales and this part of our business may never be profitable.
   
Our Sensera device may contain errors or defects, which could result in damage to our reputation, lost revenues, diverted development resources and increased service costs, warranty claims and litigation.
   
The complex nature of the Sensera device increases the likelihood that our products will contain defects.
   
Our Sensera device contains potentially controlled substances, the use of which may generate public controversy.
   

We require large financial investments to complete product development and market introduction, including marketing and sales budgets.

 

General Business Risks

 

We face the risk of exposure to product liability claims, regulatory action and litigation if our products cause loss or injury.

 

We may not be able to obtain insurance coverage for all of the risks we face, exposing us to potential uninsured liabilities.

 

If any of the products that we produce or intend to produce are recalled due to an alleged product defect or for any other reason, we could be required to incur the unexpected expense of the recall and any legal proceedings that might arise in connection with the recall.

 

Conditions in Israel, including the recent attack by Hamas and other terrorist organizations from the Gaza Strip and Israel’s war against them, may adversely affect our operations and limit our ability to manage and market our products, which would lead to a decrease in revenues.

 

Because most of our operations are conducted in Israel and most of the members of our board of directors, management, as well as a majority of our employees and consultants, including employees of our service providers, are located in Israel, our business and operations are directly affected by economic, political, geopolitical and military conditions affecting Israel. Since the establishment of the State of Israel in 1948, a number of armed conflicts have occurred between Israel and its neighboring countries and other hostile non-state actors. These conflicts have involved missile strikes, hostile infiltrations and terrorism against civilian targets in various parts of Israel, which have negatively affected business conditions in Israel.

 

On October 7, 2023, Hamas militants and members of other terrorist organizations infiltrated Israel’s southern border from the Gaza Strip and conducted a series of terror attacks on civilian and military targets. Thereafter, these terrorists launched extensive rocket attacks on Israeli population and industrial centers located along the Israeli border with the Gaza Strip. As of the date of this MD&A, such attacks collectively resulted in over 1,200 deaths and over 2,600 injured people, in addition to the kidnapping of 101 civilians, including women and children. Shortly following the attack, Israel’s security cabinet declared war against Hamas.

 

 

 

 

The intensity and duration of Israel’s current war against Hamas is difficult to predict, and as are such war’s economic implications on the Company’s business and operations and on Israel’s economy in general. On October 9, 2023, the Central Bank of Israel announced its intent to sell up to $30 billion USD in order to protect the New Israeli Shekel (“NIS”) from collapse, however despite the foregoing announcement the NIS weakened to approximately 3.92 NIS for one US dollar as of the same day. In addition, on October 9, 2023, the Tel Aviv-35 stock index of blue-chip companies dropped by 6.4% whereas the benchmark TA-125 index fell by 6.2%. These events may imply wider macroeconomic indications of a deterioration of Israel’s economic standing, which may have a material adverse effect on the Company and its ability to effectively conduct is business, operations and affairs.

 

It is possible that other terrorist organizations will join the hostilities as well, including Hezbollah in Lebanon, and Palestinian military organizations in the West Bank. Our facilities are not only within the range of rockets from the Gaza Strip, but also within the range of rockets that can be fired from Lebanon, Syria or elsewhere in the Middle East. In the event that our facilities are damaged as a result of hostile action or hostilities otherwise disrupt the ongoing operation of our facilities, our ability to deliver products to customers in a timely manner to meet our contractual obligations with customers and vendors could be materially and adversely affected.

 

Our commercial insurance does not cover losses that may occur as a result of events associated with war and terrorism. Although the Israeli government currently covers the reinstatement value of direct damages that are caused by terrorist attacks or acts of war, we cannot assure you that this government coverage will be maintained or that it will sufficiently cover our potential damages. Any losses or damages incurred by us could have a material adverse effect on our business.

 

As a result of the Israeli security cabinet’s decision to declare war against Hamas, several hundred thousand Israeli reservists were drafted to perform immediate military service. Certain of our employees and consultants in Israel, in addition to employees of our service providers located in Israel, have been called for service in the current war with Hamas as of the date of this MD&A, and such persons may be absent for an extended period of time. As a result, our operations may be disrupted by such absences, which may materially and adversely affect our business and results of our operations. Additionally, the absence of employees of our Israeli suppliers and contract manufacturers due to their military service in the current war or future wars or other armed conflicts may disrupt their operations, in which event our ability to deliver products to customers may be materially and adversely affected.

 

In addition, popular uprisings in various countries in the Middle East and North Africa have affected the political stability of those countries. Such instability may lead to a deterioration in the political and trade relationships that exist between the State of Israel and these countries. Moreover, some countries around the world restrict doing business with Israel and Israeli companies, and additional countries may impose restrictions on doing business with Israel and Israeli companies if hostilities in Israel or political instability in the region continues or increases. These restrictions may limit materially our ability to obtain raw materials from these countries or sell our products to companies and customers in these countries. In addition, there have been increased efforts by activists to cause companies and consumers to boycott Israeli goods. Such efforts, particularly if they become more widespread, may materially and adversely impact our ability to sell our products outside of Israel.

 

Prior to the Hamas attack in October 2023, the Israeli government pursued extensive changes to Israel’s judicial system, which sparked extensive political debate and unrest. In response to such initiative, many individuals, organizations and institutions, both within and outside of Israel, have voiced concerns that the proposed changes may negatively impact the business environment in Israel including due to reluctance of foreign investors to invest or transact business in Israel as well as to increased currency fluctuations, downgrades in credit rating, increased interest rates, increased volatility in security markets, and other changes in macroeconomic conditions. The risk of such negative developments has increased in light of the recent Hamas attacks and the war against Hamas declared by Israel. To the extent that any of these negative developments do occur, they may have an adverse effect on our business, our results of operations and our ability to raise additional funds, if deemed necessary by our management and board of directors.

 

 

 

 

The company wishes to clarify that as of October 2023, due to the continuing war status that broke out in the Gaza Strip and the difficult security situation in northern Israel, the timetables of the Company’s various projects have been significantly delayed, due to reserve recruitment of employees, consultants and key employees of service providers, various shutdowns in the Israeli economy, a significant delay in shipments from Israel abroad and from abroad to Israel, the cessation of activity of various government institutions for many months. It was also decided to suspend the construction of the planned medical cannabis farm due, in part, to the proximity of the area designated for cultivation to the Gaza Strip.

 

The company does not know how long the delays will occur and whether it will be possible to return to full regular activity, and therefore, there has been a delay in the timetables for the development and production of the Sensera Device and it is not possible to estimate the exact time when it will be possible to return to full activity.

 

The Company cautiously assesses that if there is no further deterioration in security, it will be possible to return to full operations and launch the product in the first quarter of 2025.

 

In light of all of the above, there will be a significant delay in generating cash flow and income from the Company’s operations in 2025.

 

OTHER MATTERS

 

Legal Proceedings

 

There are no ongoing legal proceedings of any kind initiated by the Company or by third parties against the Company.

 

Contingent Liabilities

 

At the date of this MD&A, management was unaware of any outstanding contingent liability relating to the Company’s activities.

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

The Company’s directors and officers are responsible for designing internal controls over financial reporting in order to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the Company’s financial statements for external purposes in accordance with IFRS. The design of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was assessed as of the date of this MD&A.

 

Based on this assessment, it was determined that certain weaknesses existed in internal controls over financial reporting. As indicative of many small companies, the lack of segregation of duties and effective risk assessment were identified as areas where weaknesses existed. The existence of these weaknesses is to be compensated for by senior management monitoring, which exists. The officers will continue to monitor very closely all financial activities of the Company and increase the level of supervision in key areas. It is important to note that this issue would also require the Company to hire additional staff in order to provide greater segregation of duties. Since the increased costs of such hiring could threaten the Company’s financial viability, management has chosen to disclose the potential risk in its filings and proceed with increased staffing only when the budgets and work load will enable the action.

 

The Company has attempted to mitigate these weaknesses, through a combination of extensive and detailed review by the Company’s directors and officers, of the financial reports, the integrity and reputation of accounting personnel, and candid discussion of those risks.
