PROSPECTUS

 

345,000 Ordinary Shares

 

2,500,000 Warrants to purchase Ordinary Shares

 

2,500,000 Ordinary Shares underlying such Warrants

 

2,155,000 Pre-Funded Warrants to purchase Ordinary Shares

 

2,155,000 Ordinary Shares underlying such Pre-Funded Warrants

 

 

Wearable Devices Ltd.

 

We are offering on a “best efforts” basis 345,000 ordinary shares, no par value per share, or the Ordinary Shares, together with accompanying warrants to purchase 2,500,000 Ordinary Shares, or the Warrants, together with the Ordinary Shares, at a public offering price of $1.00 per Ordinary Share and accompanying Warrant.

 

Each Warrant will have an exercise price per share of $1.00, will be immediately exercisable beginning on the original issuance date, or the Issuance Date, and will expire on the five-year anniversary of the Issuance Date. See “Description of Securities We Are Offering” for more information related to the Warrants.

 

We are also offering those purchasers whose purchase of Ordinary Shares in this offering would otherwise result in the purchaser, together with its affiliates and certain related parties, beneficially owning more than 4.99% (or, at the election of such purchaser, 9.99%) of our outstanding Ordinary Shares immediately following the consummation of this offering, 2,155,000 pre-funded warrants, or Pre-Funded Warrants, in lieu of Ordinary Shares. Each Pre-Funded Warrant will be immediately exercisable for one Ordinary Share and may be exercised at any time until all of the Pre-Funded Warrants are exercised in full. The purchase price of each Pre-Funded Warrant will equal the price per share at which the Ordinary Shares are being sold to the public in this offering, minus $0.0001, and the exercise price of each Pre-Funded Warrant will be $0.0001 per share. There is no established public trading market for the Warrants or Pre-Funded Warrants, and we do not expect a market to develop. We do not intend to apply for a listing of the Warrants or Pre-Funded Warrants on any national securities exchange. This offering also relates to the Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants and any Pre-Funded Warrants sold in this offering.

 

 

The Ordinary Shares, Warrants, and Pre-Funded Warrants are collectively referred to herein as the “Securities.”

 

Our Ordinary Shares and certain previously issued warrants, or the IPO Warrants, are listed on Nasdaq under the symbols “WLDS” and “WLDSW,” respectively. On January 28, 2025, the last reported sale price of our Ordinary Shares and IPO Warrants on Nasdaq was $1.06 per share and $0.208 per IPO Warrant, respectively.

 

The Ordinary Shares and accompanying Warrants will be issued separately and will be immediately separable upon issuance but can only be purchased together in this offering.

 

There is no established public trading market for the Warrants and the Pre-Funded Warrants, and we do not expect a market to develop. In addition, we do not intend to apply for the listing of the Warrants and Pre-Funded Warrants on any national securities exchange or other nationally recognized trading system. Without an active trading market, the liquidity of the Warrants and the Pre-Funded Warrants will be limited.

 

We are an emerging growth company, as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 and a “foreign private issuer”, as defined in Rule 405 under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, and are eligible for reduced public company reporting requirements.

 

Unless otherwise noted and other than in our historical financial statements and the notes thereto incorporated by reference herein, the share and per share information in this prospectus supplement reflects the 1-for-20 reverse share split, or the Reverse Share Split, of the outstanding Ordinary Shares of the Company. The Reverse Share Split became effective on October 10, 2024.

 

Investing in our Securities involves a high degree of risk. See “Risk Factors” beginning on page 5 of this prospectus for a discussion of information that should be considered in connection with an investment in our Securities, as well as the risks described under the heading “Item 3 Key Information – D. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2023, or the 2023 Annual Report, which we filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 15, 2024, and in other documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus.

 

Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, nor any state or other foreign securities commission has approved nor disapproved these securities or determined if this prospectus is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

 

We have engaged A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners, or A.G.P., or the placement agent, as our placement agent, to use its best efforts to solicit offers to purchase our Securities in this offering. The placement agent has no obligation to purchase any securities from us or to arrange for the purchase or sale of any specific number or dollar amount of the securities. Because there is no minimum offering amount required as a condition to closing in this offering the actual public offering amount, placement agent fees, and proceeds to us, if any, are not presently determinable and may be substantially less than the total maximum offering amounts set forth in this prospectus. We have agreed to pay the placement agent the placement agent fees set forth in the table below. See “Plan of Distribution” in this prospectus for more information.

 

The securities will be offered at a fixed price and are expected to be issued in a single closing. The offering will terminate on February 28, 2025, unless the offering is completed sooner or unless we decide to terminate the offering (which we may do at any time in our discretion) prior to that date. We expect to enter into a securities purchase agreement relating to the offering with those investors that choose to enter into such an agreement on the day that the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part is declared effective and that the closing of the offering will end one trading day after we first enter into a securities purchase agreement relating to the offering. The offering will settle delivery versus payment, or DVP, receipt versus payment, or RVP, (on the closing date we will issue the Ordinary Shares and accompanying Warrants directly to the account(s) at the placement agent identified by each purchaser; upon receipt of such shares, the placement agent shall promptly electronically deliver such shares to the applicable purchaser, and payment therefor shall be made by the placement agent (or its clearing firm) by wire transfer to us).

 

 

We and the placement agent have not made any arrangements to place investor funds in an escrow account or trust account since the placement agent will not receive investor funds in connection with the sale of the new securities offered hereunder. As stated above, because this is a best efforts offering, the placement agent does not have an obligation to purchase any securities and, as a result, there is a possibility that we may not be able to sell the securities. There is no minimum offering requirement as a condition of closing of this offering. Because there is no minimum offering amount required as a condition to closing this offering, we may sell fewer than all of the securities offered hereby, which may significantly reduce the amount of proceeds received by us, and investors in this offering will not receive a refund in the event that we do not sell an amount of securities sufficient to pursue our business goals described in this prospectus. In addition, because there is no escrow account and no minimum offering amount, investors could be in a position where they have invested in our company, but we are unable to fulfill all of our contemplated objectives due to a lack of interest in this offering. Further, any proceeds from the sale of Securities offered by us will be available for immediate use, despite uncertainty about whether we would be able to use such funds to effectively implement our business plan. See the section entitled “Risk Factors – Risks Related to this Offering and the Ownership of the Ordinary Shares and Pre-Funded Warrants” for more information.

RISK FACTORS

 

An investment in our Securities involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below and those described under the section captioned “Risk Factors” contained in our 2023 Annual Report and all other information contained or incorporated by reference into this prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus before making an investment in our Securities. Our business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially and adversely affected if any of these risks occurs and, as a result, the market price of our Securities could decline and you could lose all or part of your investment. This prospectus also contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. See “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.” Our actual results could differ materially and adversely from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors.

 

Risks Related to this Offering and the Ownership of the Ordinary Shares and Pre-Funded Warrants

  

The market price of our Ordinary Shares may be highly volatile and fluctuate substantially, which could result in substantial losses for purchasers of our Ordinary Shares and Pre-Funded Warrants in this offering.

 

Our Ordinary Shares currently trade on The Nasdaq Capital Market. There is limited public float, and trading volume historically has been low and sporadic. As a result, the market price for our Ordinary Shares may not necessarily be a reliable indicator of our fair market value. The price at which our Ordinary Shares trades may fluctuate as a result of a number of factors, including the number of shares available for sale in the market, quarterly variations in our operating results, actual or anticipated announcements of new releases by us or competitors, the gain or loss of sources of revenues, changes in the estimates of our operating performance, market conditions in our industry and the economy as a whole.

  

Future issuances or sales, or the potential for future issuances or sales, of our Ordinary Shares may cause the trading price of our Ordinary Shares to decline and could impair our ability to raise capital through subsequent equity offerings.

 

We have issued a significant number of Ordinary Shares and we may do so in the future. Shares to be issued in future equity offerings could cause the market price of our Ordinary Shares to decline and could have an adverse effect on our earnings per share if and when we become profitable. In addition, future sales of our Ordinary Shares or other securities in the public markets, or the perception that these sales may occur, could cause the market price of our Ordinary Shares to decline, and could materially impair our ability to raise capital through the sale of additional securities.

 

The market price of our Ordinary Shares could decline due to sales, or the announcements of proposed sales, of a large number of Ordinary Shares in the market, including sales of Ordinary Shares by our large shareholders, or the perception that these sales could occur. These sales or the perception that these sales could occur could also depress the market price of our Ordinary Shares and impair our ability to raise capital through the sale of additional equity securities or make it more difficult or impossible for us to sell equity securities in the future at a time and price that we deem appropriate. We cannot predict the effect that future sales of Ordinary Shares or other equity-related securities would have on the market price of our Ordinary Shares.

 

Our amended and restated articles of association authorize our board of directors to, among other things, issue additional Ordinary Shares or securities convertible or exchangeable into Ordinary Shares, without shareholder approval. We may issue such additional Ordinary Shares or convertible securities to raise additional capital. The issuance of any additional Ordinary Shares or convertible securities could be substantially dilutive to our shareholders. Moreover, to the extent that we issue RSUs, stock appreciation rights, options or warrants to purchase our Ordinary Shares in the future and those stock appreciation rights, options or warrants are exercised, or as the RSUs settle, our shareholders may experience further dilution. Holders of our Ordinary Shares have no preemptive rights that entitle such holders to purchase their pro rata share of any offering of shares or equivalent securities and, therefore, such sales or offerings could result in increased dilution to our shareholders.

 

 

Management will have broad discretion as to the use of the proceeds from this offering, and we may not use the proceeds effectively.

 

Our management will have broad discretion in the allocation of the net proceeds and could use them for purposes other than those contemplated at the time of this offering and as described in the section titled “Use of Proceeds.” Our management could spend the proceeds in ways that you do not agree with or that do not improve our results of operations or enhance the value of our Ordinary Shares.

 

Nasdaq may delist our Ordinary Shares from its exchange which could limit your ability to make transactions in our Securities and subject us to additional trading restrictions.

 

We are required to meet the continued listing requirements of Nasdaq, including those regarding minimum share price. In particular, we are required to maintain a minimum bid price for our listed Ordinary Shares of $1.00 per share. On November 24, 2022, we received a written notification from Nasdaq, which stated that because the closing bid price of our Ordinary Shares for 30 consecutive business days was below the minimum $1.00 per share bid price requirement for continued listing on Nasdaq, we were not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). Pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the applicable grace period to regain compliance was 180 days, or until May 22, 2023. On May 23, 2023, we announced that we received a letter from the Nasdaq pursuant to which Nasdaq granted us an extension until November 20, 2023, to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement. On June 12, 2023, we announced that Nasdaq confirmed that we regained compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) concerning the minimum bid price of our Ordinary Shares.

 

On October 24, 2023, we received another written notification from Nasdaq, which stated that because the closing bid price of our Ordinary Shares for 30 consecutive business days was below the minimum $1.00 per share bid price requirement for continued listing on Nasdaq, we were not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). Pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), we had a grace period of 180 days to regain compliance until April 22, 2024. On April 24, 2024, we announced that we received a letter from the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC pursuant to which Nasdaq granted us an extension until October 21, 2024, to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement.

 

On October 7, 2024, we effectuated a 1-for-20 reverse share split in order to regain compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). As a result, we were informed by Nasdaq on October 28, 2024 that we had regained compliance.

 

On January 16, 2025, we received a written notification from Nasdaq, which stated that we were no longer in compliance with the minimum stockholders’ equity requirement for continued listing on Nasdaq, listing Nasdaq Rule 5550(b)(1), due to our failure to maintain a minimum of $2,500,000 in stockholders’ equity. In our Report of Foreign Private Issuer on Form 6-K, dated September 23, 2024, we reported stockholders’ equity of approximately $1,695,000 as of June 30, 2024. In accordance with Nasdaq rules, we have 45 calendar days, or until March 3, 2025, to submit a plan to regain compliance. If the plan is accepted, Nasdaq can grant an extension of up to 180 calendar days from the date of the letter to evidence compliance. The notification letter has no immediate effect on our listing on Nasdaq, and during the grace period, as may be extended, our ordinary shares and warrants will continue to trade on Nasdaq under the symbol “WLDS” and “WLDSW,” respectively. Although this offering will result in our stockholders’ equity exceeding $2,500,000, there is no guarantee that we will regain compliance with Nasdaq rules.

 

A future decline in the closing price of our Ordinary Shares on Nasdaq or other factors that cause us not to meet any Nasdaq continued listing requirements could result in suspension or delisting procedures in respect of our Ordinary Shares. The commencement of suspension or delisting procedures by an exchange remains, at all times, at the discretion of such exchange and would be publicly announced by the exchange. If a suspension or delisting were to occur, there would be significantly less liquidity in the suspended or delisted securities. In addition, our ability to raise additional necessary capital through equity or debt financing would be greatly impaired. Furthermore, with respect to any suspended or delisted Ordinary Shares, we would expect decreases in institutional and other investor demand, analyst coverage, market making activity and information available concerning trading prices and volume, and fewer broker-dealers would be willing to execute trades with respect to such Ordinary Shares. A suspension or delisting would likely decrease the attractiveness of our Ordinary Shares to investors and cause the trading volume of our Ordinary Shares to decline, which could result in a further decline in the market price of our Ordinary Shares.

 

Finally, if the volatility in the broader capital markets increases, that could have an adverse effect on the market price of our Ordinary Shares, regardless of our operating performance.

 

 

There is no public market for the Warrants or Pre-Funded Warrants being offered in this offering.

 

There is no established public trading market for the Warrants or Pre-Funded Warrants being offered in this offering and we do not expect a market to develop. In addition, we do not intend to apply to list the Warrants or Pre-Funded Warrants on any national securities exchange or other nationally recognized trading system, including Nasdaq. Without an active market, the liquidity of the Warrants or Pre-Funded Warrants will be limited.

 

The Warrants and Pre-Funded Warrants are speculative in nature.

 

The Warrants and Pre-Funded Warrants offered hereby do not confer any rights of Ordinary Share ownership on their holders, such as voting rights, but rather merely represent the right to acquire Ordinary Shares at a fixed price. Specifically, commencing on the date of issuance, holders of the Warrants and Pre-Funded Warrants may exercise their right to acquire the Ordinary Shares upon the payment of an exercise price of $1.00 per share in the case of Warrants and an exercise price of $0.0001 per share in the case of Pre-Funded Warrants. Moreover, following this offering, the market value of the Warrants and Pre-Funded Warrants is uncertain and there can be no assurance that the market value of the Warrants or Pre-Funded Warrants will equal or exceed their imputed public offering prices. Furthermore, each Warrant will expire five years from the Issuance Date. Each Pre-Funded Warrant will not expire until it has been exercised in full.

 

Holders of our Warrants and Pre-Funded Warrants will have no rights as a shareholder until they acquire our Ordinary Shares.

 

Until holders of our Warrants and Pre-Funded Warrants acquire Ordinary Shares upon exercise of such warrants, the holders will have no rights with respect to the Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of such Warrants and Pre-Funded Warrants. Upon exercise of the Warrants and Pre-Funded Warrants, holders will be entitled to exercise the rights of shareholder only as to matters for which the record date occurs after the exercise date.

 

If we do not maintain a current and effective prospectus relating to the Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants and Pre-Funded Warrants, public holders will only be able to exercise such Warrants and Pre-Funded Warrants on a “cashless basis.”

 

If we do not maintain a current and effective prospectus relating to the Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants and Pre-Funded Warrants at the time that holders wish to exercise such Warrants and Pre-Funded Warrants, they will only be able to exercise them on a “cashless basis,” and under no circumstances would we be required to make any cash payments to the holders or net cash settle such Warrants and Pre-Funded Warrants. As a result, the number of Ordinary Shares that holders will receive upon exercise of the Warrants and Pre-Funded Warrants will be fewer than it would have been had such holders exercised their Warrants and Pre-Funded Warrants for cash. We will do our best efforts to maintain a current and effective prospectus relating to the Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of such Warrants and Pre-Funded Warrants until the expiration of such Warrants and Pre-Funded Warrants. However, we cannot assure you that we will be able to do so. If we are unable to do so, the potential “upside” of the holder’s investment in our company may be reduced.

 

The “best efforts” structure of this offering may have an adverse effect on our business plan.

 

The placement agent is offering the Securities in this offering on a best efforts basis. The placement agent is not required to purchase any securities, but will use its best efforts to sell the securities offered. As a “best efforts” offering, there can be no assurance that the offering contemplated hereby will ultimately be consummated or will result in any proceeds being made available to us or if consummated the amount of proceeds to be received. The success of this offering will impact our ability to use the proceeds to execute our business plan. An adverse effect on the business may result from raising less than anticipated, and from the fact that there is no minimum raise.

 

 

Significant holders or beneficial holders of Ordinary Shares may not be permitted to exercise the Warrants or Pre-Funded Warrants that they hold.

 

A holder (together with its affiliates and other attribution parties) may not exercise any portion of a Warrant or Pre-Funded Warrant to the extent that immediately prior to or after giving effect to such exercise the holder would own more than 4.99% (or, at the election of the such holder, 9.99%) of our outstanding Ordinary Shares immediately after exercise, which percentage may be changed at the holder’s election to a higher or lower percentage not in excess of 9.99% upon 61 days’ notice to us subject to the terms of the Pre-Funded Warrants. As a result, you may not be able to exercise your Warrants or Pre-Funded Warrants for Ordinary Shares at a time when it would be financially beneficial for you to do so. In such a circumstance, you could seek to sell your Warrants or Pre-Funded Warrants to realize value, but you may be unable to do so in the absence of an established trading market and due to applicable transfer restrictions.

 

We may not receive any additional funds upon the exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants.

 

Each Pre-Funded Warrant may be exercised by way of a cashless exercise, meaning that the holder may not pay a cash purchase price upon exercise, but instead would receive upon such exercise the net number of Ordinary Shares determined according to the formula set forth in the Pre-Funded Warrant. Accordingly, we may not receive any additional funds upon the exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants.

 

Purchasers who purchase our securities in this offering pursuant to a securities purchase agreement may have rights not available to purchasers that purchase without the benefit of a securities purchase agreement.

 

In addition to rights and remedies available to all purchasers in this offering under federal securities and state law, the purchasers that enter into a securities purchase agreement will also be able to bring claims of breach of contract against us. The ability to pursue a claim for breach of contract provides those investors with the means to enforce the covenants uniquely available to them under the securities purchase agreement, including: a covenant to not enter into any equity financings for a certain number of days from closing of the offering, subject to certain exceptions.

 

 

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus and contain, and our officers and representatives may from time to time make, “forward-looking statements,” which include information relating to future events, future financial performance, financial projections, strategies, expectations, competitive environment and regulation.

Forward-looking statements are based on information we have when those statements are made or management’s good faith belief as of that time with respect to future events, and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual performance or results to differ materially from those expressed in or suggested by the forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause such differences include, but are not limited to:

our financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2024, contained an explanatory paragraph regarding substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern, which could prevent us from obtaining new financing on reasonable terms or at all;

 

●

SNC becoming the industry standard input method for wearable computing and consumer electronics;

 

●

our ability to maintain and expand our existing customer base;

 

●

our ability to maintain and expand compatibility of our devices with a broad range of mobile devices and operating systems;

 

●

timing of the shipment to early-booking orders of our Mudra Band;

  

●

our ability to maintain our business models;

 

●

our ability to correctly predict the market growth;

 

●

our ability to remediate material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting;

 

●

our ability to retain our founders;

 

●

our ability to maintain, protect, and enhance our intellectual property;

 

●

our ability to raise capital through the issuance of additional securities;

 

●

the impact of competition and new technologies;

 

●

general market, political and economic conditions in the countries in which we operate;

 

●

projected capital expenditures and liquidity;

 

●

changes in our strategy; and

 

●

litigation.

 

  

These statements are only current predictions and are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that may cause our or our industry’s actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from those anticipated by the forward-looking statements. We discuss many of these risks in this prospectus in greater detail under the heading “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference herein. You should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events.

 

Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance, or achievements. Except as required by law, we are under no duty to update or revise any of the forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, after the date of this prospectus.

 

Moreover, new risks regularly emerge and it is not possible for our management to predict or articulate all risks we face, nor can we assess the impact of all risks on our business or the extent to which any risk, or combination of risks, may cause actual results to differ from those contained in any forward-looking statements. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and Section 27A of the Securities Act do not protect any forward-looking statements that we make in connection with this offering. All forward-looking statements included in this prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference herein and therein are based on information available to us as of the date of this prospectus or the date of the applicable document incorporated by reference. Except to the extent required by applicable laws or rules, we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether written or oral, that may be made from time to time, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained above and throughout this prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus. We qualify all of our forward-looking statements by these cautionary statements.

 

IN ADDITION TO THE ABOVE RISKS, BUSINESSES ARE OFTEN SUBJECT TO RISKS NOT FORESEEN OR FULLY APPRECIATED BY OUR MANAGEMENT. IN REVIEWING THIS PROSPECTUS AND THE DOCUMENTS INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE HEREIN AND THEREIN, POTENTIAL INVESTORS SHOULD KEEP IN MIND THAT THERE MAY BE OTHER POSSIBLE RISKS THAT COULD BE IMPORTANT.

 

 

USE OF PROCEEDS

 

We expect to receive approximately $2.1 million in net proceeds from the sale of the Securities offered by us in this offering, based upon the public offering price of $1.00 per Ordinary Share and accompanying Warrant and the public offering price of $0.9999 per Pre-Funded Warrant and accompanying Warrant. We will only receive additional proceeds from the exercise of the Warrants and Pre-Funded Warrants we are selling in this offering if the Warrants and Pre-Funded Warrants are exercised for cash. We cannot predict when or if these Warrants or Pre-Funded Warrants will be exercised. It is possible that these warrants may expire and may never be exercised.

 

We currently expect to use the net proceeds from this offering for working capital and general corporate purposes.

 

Changing circumstances may cause us to consume capital significantly faster than we currently anticipate. The amounts and timing of our actual expenditures will depend upon numerous factors, including the progress of our global marketing and sales efforts, the development of our products and the overall economic environment. Therefore, our management will retain broad discretion over the use of the proceeds from this offering. We may ultimately use the proceeds for different purposes than what we currently intend. Pending our use of the net proceeds from this offering, we may invest the net proceeds in a variety of capital preservation investments, including short-term, investment grade, interest bearing instruments and U.S. government securities.  

 

 

DIVIDEND POLICY

 

We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our Ordinary Shares and do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Payment of cash dividends, if any, in the future will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend on then-existing conditions, including our financial condition, operating results, contractual restrictions, capital requirements, business prospects and other factors our board of directors may deem relevant. Under the Israeli Companies Law, 5759-1999, or the Companies Law, the repurchase of shares is treated as a dividend distribution.

 

The Companies Law imposes further restrictions on our ability to declare and pay dividends. Under the Companies Law, we may declare and pay dividends only if, upon the determination of our board of directors, there is no reasonable concern that the distribution will prevent us from being able to meet the terms of our existing and foreseeable obligations as they become due. Under the Companies Law, the distribution amount is further limited to the greater of retained earnings or earnings generated over the two most recent years legally available for distribution according to our then last reviewed or audited financial statements, provided that the end of the period to which the financial statements relate is not more than six months prior to the date of distribution. In the event that we do not meet such earnings criteria, we may seek the approval of a court in order to distribute a dividend. The court may approve our request if it is convinced that there is no reasonable concern that the payment of a dividend will prevent us from satisfying our existing and foreseeable obligations as they become due.

 

Under new exemptions, however, an Israeli company whose shares are listed outside Israel is permitted to execute distributions through repurchasing its own shares, even if earnings criteria are not met, without the need for a court’s approval. This exemption is subject to certain conditions, including, among others: (i) the distribution meets the solvency criteria; and (ii) there had not been any objection filed by any of the Company’s creditors to the relevant court. If any creditor objects to such distribution, the Company will be required to obtain the court’s approval for such distribution.

 

Payment of dividends may be subject to Israeli withholding taxes. See “Item 10 – Taxation” in our 2023 Annual Report for additional information, which is incorporated by reference herein.

Articles of Association 

 

Directors

 

Our board of directors shall direct our policy and shall supervise the performance of our Chief Executive Officer and his actions. Our board of directors may exercise all powers that are not required under the Israeli Companies Law 5759-1999, or the Companies Law, or under our amended and restated articles of association to be exercised or taken by our shareholders.

 

Rights Attached to Ordinary Shares

 

Our Ordinary Shares shall confer upon the holders thereof:

 

●

equal right to attend and to vote at all of our general meetings, whether regular or special, with each Ordinary Share entitling the holder thereof, which attend the meeting and participate at the voting, either in person or by a proxy or by a written ballot, to one vote;

 

●

equal right to participate in distribution of dividends, if any, whether payable in cash or in bonus shares, in distribution of assets or in any other distribution, on a per share pro rata basis; and

 

●

equal right to participate, upon our dissolution, in the distribution of our assets legally available for distribution, on a per share pro rata basis.

 

 

Election of Directors

 

Pursuant to our amended and restated articles of association, our directors (excluding external directors, if applicable) are elected at an annual general meeting of our shareholders and serve on the board of directors until the third annual general meeting next succeeding their election or until he or she resigns or unless he or she is removed by a majority vote of our shareholders at a general meeting of our shareholders or upon the occurrence of certain events, in accordance with the Companies Law and our amended and restated articles of association. The directors are classified, with respect to the term for which they each severally hold office, into three classes, as nearly equal in number as practicable, and designated as Class I, Class II and Class III. The board of directors may assign members of the board of directors already in office to such classes at the time such classification becomes effective. If the number of directors is changed, any newly created directors or decrease in directors must be apportioned by the board among the classes to make them equal in number. Pursuant to our amended and restated articles of association, other than the external directors (if applicable), for whom special election requirements apply under the Companies Law, the vote required to appoint a director is a simple majority vote of holders of our voting shares, participating and voting at the relevant meeting. In addition, our amended and restated articles of association allow our board of directors to appoint directors to fill vacancies and/or as an addition to the board of directors (subject to the maximum number of directors). Directors appointed by our board of directors will serve for the remaining period of time during which the director whose service has ended was filled would have held office, or in case of an addition to the board of directors due to the number of directors serving being less than the maximum number, the board of directors shall determine the class to which the additional director shall be assigned.

 

Annual and Special Meetings

 

Under the Israeli law, we are required to hold an annual general meeting of our shareholders once every calendar year, at such time and place which shall be determined by our board of directors, that must be no later than 15 months after the date of the previous annual general meeting. All meetings other than the annual general meeting of shareholders are referred to as special general meetings. Our board of directors may call special meetings whenever it sees fit and upon the request of: (a) any two of our directors or such number of directors equal to one quarter of the directors then at office; and/or (b) one or more shareholders holding, in the aggregate, (i) 5% or more of our outstanding issued shares and 1% of our outstanding voting power or (ii) 5% or more of our outstanding voting power, or the Non Exempted Holding. However, under a new exemption applicable as of March 12, 2024, the board of directors of an Israeli company whose shares are listed outside of Israel, shall convene a special meeting at the request of: (i) one or more shareholders holding at least ten percent (10%) of the issued and outstanding share capital instead of five (5%) in the past, and at least one percent (1%) of the voting rights in the company, or (ii) one or more shareholders holding at least ten percent (10%) of the voting rights in the company, unless the applicable law incorporated in the country in which the Company is listed for trade, establishes a right to demand convening of such a meeting for those holding less than ten percent (10%) of the voting rights in the company (in which case, the Non Exempted Holding shall apply).

 

In addition, one or more shareholders that hold at least one percent (1%) of the voting rights of a company may request its board of directors to include an item on the agenda of a future general meeting (if the company sees fit) provided that, under a new exemption applicable as of March 12, 2024, one or more shareholders of an Israeli company whose shares are listed outside of Israel, may request a company’s board of directors to include an appointment of a candidate for a position on the board of directors or the dismissal of a board member from office, as an item on the agenda of a future general meeting (if the company sees fit), provided that the shareholder holds at least five percent (5%) of the voting rights of the company, instead of one percent (1%) as required previously.

 

Subject to the provisions of the Companies Law and the regulations promulgated thereunder, shareholders entitled to participate and vote at general meetings are the shareholders of record on a date to be decided by the board of directors, which may be between (4) four and (60) sixty days prior to the date of the meeting. Resolutions regarding the following matters must be passed at a general meeting of our shareholders:

 

●

amendments to our amended and restated articles of association;

 

●

the exercise of our board of directors’ powers by a general meeting if our board of directors is unable to exercise its powers and the exercise of any of its powers is required for our proper management;

 

●

appointment or termination of our auditors;

 

●

appointment of directors, including external directors (other than with respect to circumstances specified in our amended and restated articles of association);

 

●

approval of acts and transactions requiring general meeting approval pursuant to the provisions of the Companies Law (mainly certain related party transactions) and any other applicable law;

 

●

increases or reductions of our authorized share capital; and

 

●

a merger (as such term is defined in the Companies Law).

 

 

Notices

 

The Companies Law require that a notice of any annual or special shareholders meeting be provided at least 14 or 21 days prior to the meeting, and if the agenda of the meeting includes the appointment or removal of directors, the approval of transactions with office holders or interested or related parties, approval of the company’s general manager to serve as the chairman of the board of directors or an approval of a merger, notice must be provided at least 35 days prior to the meeting.

 

Quorum

 

As permitted under the Companies Law, the quorum required for our general meetings consists of at least two shareholders present in person, by proxy, written ballot or voting by means of electronic voting system, who hold or represent between them at least 25% of the total outstanding voting rights. If within half an hour of the time set forth for the general meeting a quorum is not present, the general meeting shall stand adjourned the same day of the following week, at the same hour and in the same place, or to such other date, time and place as prescribed in the notice to the shareholders, or to such day, time and place as the chairperson of the general meeting shall determine and in such adjourned meeting, if no quorum is present within half an hour of the time arranged, any number of shareholders participating in the meeting, shall constitute a quorum.

 

If a special general meeting was summoned following the request of a shareholder, and within half an hour a legal quorum shall not have been formed, the meeting shall be canceled.

 

Adoption of Resolutions

 

Our amended and restated articles of association provide that resolutions amending provisions of the amended and restated articles of association related to the staggered board of directors and the composition of the board of directors, as well as a resolution to dismiss a director, will require an affirmative vote of 70% of the voting power represented at a general meeting and voting thereon. Other than that, and unless otherwise required under the Companies Law and our amended and restated articles, all resolutions of the Company’s shareholders require a simple majority vote. A shareholder may vote in a general meeting in person, by proxy, by a written ballot.

 

Changing Rights Attached to Shares

 

Unless otherwise provided by the terms of the shares and subject to any applicable law, any modification of rights attached to any class of shares must be adopted by the holders of a majority of the shares of that class present a general meeting of the affected class or by a written consent of all the shareholders of the affected class.

 

The enlargement of an existing class of shares or the issuance of additional shares thereof, shall not be deemed to modify the rights attached to the previously issued shares of such class or of any other class, unless otherwise provided by the terms of the shares.

 

Limitations on the Right to Own Securities in Our Company

 

There are no limitations on the right to own our securities in our articles of association. In certain circumstances the IPO Warrants and the Pre-Funded Warrants have restrictions upon the exercise of such warrants if such exercise would result in the holders thereof owning more than 4.99% or 9.99% of our Ordinary Shares upon such exercise, as further described below.

 

 

Provisions Restricting Change in Control of Our Company

 

Our amended and restated articles of association provide for a staggered board of directors, which mechanism may delay, defer or prevent a change of control of the Company’s board of directors. Other than that, there are no specific provisions of our amended and restated articles of association that would have an effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of the Company or that would operate only with respect to a merger, acquisition or corporate restructuring involving us. However, as described below, certain provisions of the Companies Law may have such effect.

 

The Companies Law includes provisions that allow a merger transaction and requires that each company that is a party to the merger have the transaction approved by its board of directors and, unless certain requirements described under the Companies Law are met, a vote of the majority of shareholders, and, in the case of the target company, also a majority vote of each class of its shares. For purposes of the shareholder vote of each party, unless a court rules otherwise, the merger will not be deemed approved if shares representing a majority of the voting power present at the shareholders meeting and which are not held by the other party to the merger (or by any person or group of persons acting in concert who holds 25% or more of the voting power or the right to appoint 25% or more of the directors of the other party) vote against the merger. If, however, the merger involves a merger with a company’s own controlling shareholder or if the controlling shareholder has a personal interest in the merger, then the merger is instead subject to the same special majority approval that governs all extraordinary transactions with controlling shareholders. Upon the request of a creditor of either party to the proposed merger, the court may delay or prevent the merger if it concludes that there exists a reasonable concern that as a result of the merger the surviving company will be unable to satisfy the obligations of any of the parties to the merger, and may further give instructions to secure the rights of creditors. If the transaction would have been approved by the shareholders of a merging company but for the separate approval of each class or the exclusion of the votes of certain shareholders as provided above, a court may still approve the merger upon the petition of holders of at least 25% of the voting rights of a company. For such petition to be granted, the court must find that the merger is fair and reasonable, taking into account the value of the parties to the merger and the consideration offered to the shareholders. In addition, a merger may not be completed unless at least (i) 50 days have passed from the time that the requisite proposals for approval of the merger were filed with the Israeli Registrar of Companies by each merging company and (ii) 30 days have passed since the merger was approved by the shareholders of each merging company. 

  

The term “Special Majority” hereof will be defined as described in section 275(a)(3) of the Companies Law as:

 

●

at least a majority of the shares held by shareholders who are not controlling shareholders and do not have personal interest in the merger (excluding a personal interest that did not result from the shareholder’s relationship with the controlling shareholder) have voted in favor of the proposal (shares held by abstaining shareholders shall not be considered); or

 

●

the total number of shares voted against the merger, does not exceed 2% of the aggregate voting rights of the company.

 

The Companies Law also provides that, subject to certain exceptions, an acquisition of shares in an Israeli public company must be made by means of a “special” tender offer if as a result of the acquisition (1) the purchaser would become a holder of 25% or more of the voting rights in the company, unless there is already another holder of at least 25% or more of the voting rights in the company or (2) the purchaser would become a holder of 45% or more of the voting rights in the company, unless there is already a holder of more than 45% of the voting rights in the company. These requirements do not apply if, in general, the acquisition (1) was made in a private placement that received shareholders’ approval, subject to certain conditions, (2) was from a holder of 25% or more of the voting rights in the company which resulted in the acquirer becoming a holder of 25% or more of the voting rights in the company, or (3) was from a holder of more than 45% of the voting rights in the company which resulted in the acquirer becoming a holder of more than 45% of the voting rights in the company. A “special” tender offer must be extended to all shareholders. In general, a “special” tender offer may be consummated only if (1) at least 5% of the voting power attached to the company’s outstanding shares will be acquired by the offeror and (2) the offer is accepted by a majority of the offerees who notified the company of their position in connection with such offer (excluding the offeror, controlling shareholders, holders of 25% or more of the voting rights in the company or anyone on their behalf, or any person having a personal interest in the acceptance of the tender offer). If a special tender offer is accepted, then the purchaser or any person or entity controlling it or under common control with the purchaser or such controlling person or entity may not make a subsequent tender offer for the purchase of shares of the target company and may not enter into a merger with the target company for a period of one year from the date of the offer, unless the purchaser or such person or entity undertook to effect such an offer or merger in the initial special tender offer.

 

 

However, under Companies Law exemptions, such limitations regarding a “special” tender offer do not apply to an Israeli company whose shares are listed outside of Israel, provided that the applicable law to companies incorporated in the country in which the company is listed for trade provides restrictions on the acquisition of control of any percentage of a company or that the acquisition of control of any percentage of the company requires the purchaser to also offer its securities (by way of tender offer) to shareholders from among the public. 

 

If, as a result of an acquisition of shares, the acquirer will hold more than 90% of an Israeli company’s outstanding shares or of certain class of shares, the acquisition must be made by means of a tender offer for all of the outstanding shares, or for all of the outstanding shares of such class, as applicable. In general, if less than 5% of the outstanding shares, or of applicable class, are not tendered in the tender offer and more than half of the offerees who have no personal interest in the offer tendered their shares, all the shares that the acquirer offered to purchase will be transferred to it by operation of law. However, a tender offer will also be accepted if the shareholders who do not accept the offer hold less than 2% of the issued and outstanding share capital of the company or of the applicable class of shares. Any shareholders that was an offeree in such tender offer, whether such shareholder accepted the tender offer or not, may request, by petition to an Israeli court, (i) appraisal rights in connection with a full tender offer, and (ii) that the fair value should be paid as determined by the court, for a period of six months following the acceptance thereof. However, the acquirer is entitled to stipulate, under certain conditions, that tendering shareholders will forfeit such appraisal rights. 

 

Lastly, Israeli tax law treats some acquisitions, such as stock-for-stock exchanges between an Israeli company and a foreign company, less favorably than U.S. tax laws. For example, Israeli tax law may, under certain circumstances, subject a shareholder who exchanges his Ordinary Shares for shares in another corporation to taxation prior to the sale of the shares received in such stock-for-stock swap.

 

Changes in Our Capital

 

The general meeting may, by a simple majority vote of the shareholders attending the general meeting:

 

●

increase our registered share capital by the creation of new shares from the existing class or a new class, as determined by the general meeting;

 

●

cancel any registered share capital which have not been taken or agreed to be taken by any person;

 

●

consolidate and divide all or any of our share capital into shares of larger nominal value than our existing shares;

 

●

subdivide our existing shares or any of them, our share capital or any of it, into shares of smaller nominal value than is fixed; and

 

●

reduce our share capital and any fund reserved for capital redemption in any manner, and with and subject to any incident authorized, and consent required, by the Companies Law.

 

Exclusive Forum

 

Our amended and restated articles of association provide that unless the Company consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the federal district courts of the United States of America shall be the exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act and that any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in any security of the Company, shall be deemed to have notice of and consented to this exclusive forum provision.

 

Staggered Board

 

Our amended and restated articles of association provide for a split of the board of directors into three classes with staggered three-year terms. At each annual general meeting of our shareholders, the election or re-election of directors following the expiration of the term of office of the directors of that class of directors will be for a term of office that expires on the third annual general meeting following such election or re-election, such that each year the term of office of only one class of directors will expire. The director whom is to be retired and re-elected shall be the director that served the longest period since its appointment or last re-election or, if more than one director served the longest time, or if a director who is not to be re-elected agrees to be re-elected, the meeting of the board of directors which sets the date and agenda for the annual general meeting (acting by a simple majority) will decide which of such directors will be brought for re-election at the relevant general meeting.

 

 

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES WE ARE OFFERING

 

We are offering Ordinary Shares, or Pre-Funded Warrants in lieu of Ordinary Shares, along with Warrants to purchase Ordinary Shares. Each Ordinary Share or Pre-Funded Warrant is being sold together with a Warrant to purchase one Ordinary Share. The Ordinary Shares or Pre-Funded Warrants and accompanying Warrants will be issued separately. We are also registering the Ordinary Shares issuable from time to time upon exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants offered hereby and the Warrants offered hereby.

 

Ordinary Shares

 

The material terms and provisions of our Ordinary Shares are described under the caption “Description of Share Capital” in this prospectus.

 

Warrants

 

The following summary of certain terms and provisions of the Warrants offered hereby is not complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by the form of Warrant, which is filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part. Prospective investors should carefully review the terms and provisions set forth in the form of Warrant.

 

Exercisability. The Warrants are exercisable at any time beginning on the Issuance Date. The Warrants will expire on the five-year anniversary of the Issuance Date. The Warrants will be exercisable, at the option of each holder, in whole or in part, by delivering to us a duly executed exercise notice and by payment in full of the exercise price in immediately available funds for the number of Ordinary Shares purchased upon such exercise. No fractional Ordinary Shares will be issued in connection with the exercise of a Warrant. In lieu of fractional shares, we will, at our election, either pay the holder an amount in cash equal to the fractional amount multiplied by the last closing trading price of the Ordinary Shares on the exercise date or round up to the next whole share.

 

Exercise Limitation. A holder will not have the right to exercise any portion of the warrant if the holder (together with its affiliates) would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% of the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the Warrants. However, any holder may increase or decrease such percentage to any other percentage not in excess of 9.99%, provided that any increase in such percentage shall not be effective until 61 days following notice from the holder to us.

 

Exercise Price. The exercise price for the Warrants initially will be $1.00 per Ordinary Share. The exercise price is subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of certain Ordinary Share dividends and distributions, Ordinary Share splits, Ordinary Share combinations, reclassifications or similar events affecting our Ordinary Shares and also upon any distributions of assets, including cash, stock or other property to our shareholders.

 

Transferability. Subject to applicable laws, the Warrants may be offered for sale, sold, transferred or assigned without our consent.

 

No Listing. There is no established public trading market for the Warrants and we do not expect a market to develop. In addition, we do not intend to apply for listing of the Warrants on any securities exchange or trading system. Without an active market, the liquidity of the Warrants will be limited.

 

 

Fundamental Transactions. In the event of a fundamental transaction, as described in the Warrants and generally including any reorganization, recapitalization or reclassification of our Ordinary Shares, the sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of our properties or assets, our consolidation or merger with or into another person, the acquisition of more than 50% of our outstanding Ordinary Shares, or any person or group becoming the beneficial owner of more than 50% of the voting power represented by our outstanding Ordinary Shares, the holders of the Warrants will be entitled to receive upon exercise of the Warrants the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property that the holders would have received had they exercised the Warrants immediately prior to such fundamental transaction without regard to any limitations on exercise contained in the Warrants. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in the event of a fundamental transaction, we or any successor entity shall, at the holder’s option, exercisable at any time concurrently with, or within 30 days after, the consummation of the fundamental transaction (or, if later, the date of the public announcement of the applicable fundamental transaction), redeem the Warrant from the holder by paying to the Holder an amount of cash equal to the Black-Scholes value of the remaining unexercised portion of the Warrant on the date of the consummation of such fundamental transaction.

 

Rights as a Shareholder. Except as otherwise provided in the Warrants or by virtue of such holder’s ownership of our Ordinary Shares, the holder of a Warrant does not have the rights or privileges of a holder of our Ordinary Shares, including any voting rights, until the holder exercises the Warrant.

 

Governing Law. The Warrants are governed by New York law.

 

Pre-Funded Warrants

 

The following is a summary of certain terms and conditions of the Pre-Funded Warrants being offered in this offering. The following description is subject in all respects to the provisions contained in the Pre-Funded Warrants, a form of which is an exhibit to the Registration Statement of which this prospectus forms a part.

 

Form

 

The Pre-Funded Warrants will be issued as individual warrant agreements to the purchasers.

 

Term

 

The Pre-Funded Warrants will not expire until they are fully exercised.

 

Exercisability

 

The Pre-Funded Warrants are exercisable at any time until they are fully exercised. The Pre-Funded Warrants will be exercisable, at the option of each holder, in whole or in part by delivering to us a duly executed exercise notice and payment of the exercise price. No fractional Ordinary Shares will be issued in connection with the exercise of a Pre-Funded Warrant. The holder of the Pre-Funded Warrant may also satisfy its obligation to pay the exercise price through a “cashless exercise,” in which the holder receives the net value of the Pre-Funded Warrants in Ordinary Shares determined according to the formula set forth in the Pre-Funded Warrant.

 

Exercise Limitations

 

Under the terms of the Pre-Funded Warrants, we may not effect the exercise of any such warrant, and a holder will not be entitled to exercise any portion of any such warrant, if, upon giving effect to such exercise, the aggregate number of shares beneficially owned by the holder (together with its affiliates, any other persons acting as a group together with the holder or any of the holder’s affiliates, and any other persons whose beneficial ownership of shares would or could be aggregated with the holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) or Section 16 of the Exchange Act) would exceed 9.99% of the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of such warrant, which percentage may be increased or decreased at the holder’s election upon 61 days’ notice to us subject to the terms of such warrants, provided that such percentage may in no event exceed 9.99%.

 

 

Exercise Price

 

The exercise price of our Ordinary Shares purchasable upon the exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants is $0.0001 per share. The exercise price of the Pre-Funded Warrants and the number of Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants is subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of certain stock dividends and distributions, stock splits, stock combinations, reclassifications or similar events affecting our Ordinary Shares, as well as upon any distribution of assets, including cash, stock or other property, to our shareholders.

 

Transferability

 

Subject to applicable laws, the Pre-Funded Warrants may be offered for sale, sold, transferred or assigned without our consent.

 

No Listing

 

There is no established public trading market for the Pre-Funded Warrants, and we do not expect a market to develop. We do not intend to list the Pre-Funded Warrants on Nasdaq, any other national securities exchange or any other nationally recognized trading system.

 

Fundamental Transactions

 

Upon the consummation of a fundamental transaction (as described in the Pre-Funded Warrants, and generally including any reorganization, recapitalization or reclassification of our shares, the sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of our properties or assets, our consolidation or merger with or into another person, the acquisition of more than 50% of our outstanding shares, or any person or group becoming the beneficial owner of 50% of the voting power of our outstanding shares), the holders of the Pre-Funded Warrants will be entitled to receive, upon exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants, the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property that such holders would have received had they exercised the Pre-Funded Warrants immediately prior to such fundamental transaction, without regard to any limitations on exercise contained in the Pre-Funded Warrants. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a fundamental transaction where the consideration consists solely of cash, solely of marketable securities or a combination of cash and marketable securities, then each Pre-Funded Warrant shall automatically be deemed to be exercised in full in a cashless exercise effective immediately prior to and contingent upon the consummation of such fundamental transaction.

 

No Rights as a Shareholder

 

Except by virtue of such holder’s ownership of shares, the holder of a Pre-Funded Warrant does not have the rights or privileges of a holder of our shares, including any voting rights, until such holder exercises the Pre-Funded Warrant.

 

Governing Law. The Pre-Funded Warrants are governed by New York law.

 

 

 

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

A.G.P. is serving as our placement agent in connection with this offering, subject to the terms and conditions of the placement agency agreement dated January 28, 2025. The placement agent is not purchasing or selling any of the Securities offered by this prospectus, nor is it required to arrange the purchase or sale of any specific number or dollar amount of Securities, but it has agreed to use its best efforts to arrange for the sale of all of the Securities offered hereby. We will enter into a securities purchase agreement directly with certain investors, at the investor’s option, who purchase our Securities in this offering. Investors who do not enter into a securities purchase agreement shall rely solely on this prospectus in connection with the purchase of our Securities in this offering.

 

We will deliver the Securities being issued to the investors upon receipt of investor funds for the purchase of the Securities offered pursuant to this prospectus. We expect to deliver the Securities being offered pursuant to this prospectus on or about January 30, 2025.

 

We have agreed to indemnify the placement agent and specified other persons against specified liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act and to contribute to payments the placement agent may be required to make in respect thereof. 

 

Fees and Expenses

 

This offering is being conducted on a “best efforts” basis and the placement agent has no obligation to buy any of the Securities from us or to arrange for the purchase or sale of any specific number or dollar amount of Securities. We have agreed to pay the placement agent the fees set forth in the table below.

 

		Per Ordinary Share and Accompanying Warrant				Per Pre-Funded Warrant and Accompanying Warrant				Total
Public offering price		$	1.00			$	0.99990			$	2,499,785
Placement agent fees (1)		$	0.07			$	0.0699			$	174,985
Proceeds, before expenses, to us (2)		$	0.93			$	0.92991			$	2,324,800

 

(1)	We have agreed to pay to the placement agent a cash fee equal to 7.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds raised in this offering. This does not include a management fee equal to 1.0% of the gross proceeds of this offering, to which the placement agent is entitled.
(2)	Does not give effect to any exercise of the Warrants and/or Pre-Funded Warrants being issued in this offering.

 

Because there is no minimum offering amount required as a condition to closing in this offering, the actual aggregate cash placement fee, if any, is not presently determinable and may be substantially less than the maximum amount set forth above.

 

We estimate the total expenses payable by us for this offering to be approximately $0.4 million, the amount of which includes: (i) a placement agent fee of $174,985 assuming the purchase of all of the Ordinary Shares and/or Pre-Funded Warrants we are offering, which is equal to 7.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds raised in this offering; (ii) a management fee payable to the placement agent of $24,998 assuming the purchase of all of the Ordinary Shares and/or Pre-Funded Warrants we are offering, which is equal to 1.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds raised in this offering; (iii) reimbursement of the accountable expenses of the placement agent related to the legal fees of the placement agent being paid by us (none of which has been paid in advance) of up to $50,000 ; and (iv) other estimated expenses of approximately $107,000, which include our legal, accounting, and printing costs and various fees associated with the registration and listing of our Ordinary Shares.

 

Tail Financing

 

Following the closing of this offering, A.G.P. shall be entitled to compensation as described in the paragraphs included above and as calculated in the manner described above, with respect to any public or private offering or other financing or capital-raising transaction of any kind undertaken by us (“Tail Financing”) to the extent that such financing is both (i) provided to us by investors that were, during the Term (as defined in the placement agency agreement) of our engagement with the placement agent, brought “over-the-wall” by A.G.P. or were contacted by A.G.P and (ii) such Tail Financing is consummated at any time within the six (6) month period following the expiration or termination of the placement agency agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the compensation due hereunder shall expressly not include any Ordinary Shares or other of our equity issued to our officers, directors, employees, consultants, or in relation to the transaction contemplated under the SEPA. A.G.P. will provide a list of investors whom A.G.P. has introduced to us and brought over the wall during the Term.

 

 

Regulation M

 

The placement agent may be deemed to be an underwriter within the meaning of Section 2(a)(ii) of the Securities Act and any commissions received by the placement agent and any profit realized on the resale of the shares sold by them while acting as the principal might be deemed to be underwriting discounts or commissions under the Securities Act. As an underwriter, the placement agent would be required to comply with the requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, including, without limitation, Rule 415(a)(4) under the Securities Act and Rule 10b-5 and Regulation M under the Exchange Act. These rules and regulations may limit the timing of purchases and sales of securities by the placement agent acting as principal. Under these rules and regulations, the placement agent:

 

●

may not engage in any stabilization activity in connection with our Securities; and

 

●

may not bid for or purchase any of our Securities or attempt to induce any person to purchase any of our Securities, other than as permitted under the Exchange Act, until it has completed its participation in the distribution.

 

Lock-Up  Agreements

 

Our directors, officers, certain beneficial owners of 5% or more of our outstanding Ordinary Shares have entered into lock-up agreements. Under these agreements, these individuals have agreed, subject to specified exceptions, not to sell or transfer any shares of our capital stock or securities convertible into, or exchangeable or exercisable for, our capital stock during a period ending thirty (30) days following the date of closing of the offering pursuant to this prospectus, without first obtaining the written consent of the placement agent, subject to certain exceptions. Specifically, these individuals have agreed, in part, not to:

 

●

offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell or otherwise dispose of our capital stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for our capital stock;

 

●

enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of our capital stock, whether any such transaction is to be settled by delivery of our Securities or in cash;

 

●

make any demand for or exercise any right registration of any of our capital stock; or

 

●

publicly disclose the intention to make any offer, sale, pledge or disposition of, or to enter into any transaction, swap, hedge, or other arrangement relating to any of our capital stock.

 

Notwithstanding these limitations, our capital stock may be transferred under limited circumstances, including, without limitation, by gift, will or intestate succession.

 

We have also agreed with the placement agent to be subject to a lock-up period of forty five (45) days following the date of closing of the offering pursuant to this prospectus. This means that, during the applicable lock-up period, subject to certain limited exceptions, we may not, without the prior written consent of the placement agent: (i) issue, enter into any agreement to issue or announce the issuance or proposed issuance of any Ordinary Shares or Ordinary Shares equivalents or (ii) file any registration statement or amendment or supplement thereto, other than the preliminary prospectus or the prospectus related to this offering or a registration statement on Form S-8 in connection with any employee benefit plan. In addition, subject to certain exceptions, we have agreed to not issue any securities that are subject to a price reset based on the trading prices of our Ordinary Shares or upon a specified or contingent event in the future or enter into any agreement to issue securities at a future determined price for a period of one hundred eighty (180) days following the closing date of this offering; provided, however, that after forty five (45) days after the Closing Date, the Company shall be permitted to enter into and effect sales pursuant to an at-the-market offering facility with A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners and make sales thereunder.

 

Determination of Offering Price

 

The price of the securities we are offering was negotiated between us and the investors, in consultation with the placement agent based on the trading of our Ordinary Shares prior to this offering.

 

 

Listing

 

Our Ordinary Shares and the IPO Warrants are listed on Nasdaq under the symbols “WLDS” And “WLDSW,” respectively. There is no established public trading market for the Warrants, and we do not expect a market to develop. We do not plan on making an application to list the Warrants on Nasdaq, any securities exchange or any recognized trading system.

 

Discretionary Accounts

 

The placement agent does not intend to confirm sales of the Ordinary Shares offered hereby to any accounts over which it has discretionary authority.

 

Other Activities and Relationships

 

The placement agent and certain of its affiliates are full service financial institutions engaged in various activities, which may include securities trading, commercial and investment banking, financial advisory, investment management, investment research, principal investment, hedging, financing and brokerage activities. The placement agent and certain of its affiliates may in the future perform, various commercial and investment banking and financial advisory services for us and our affiliates, for which they received or will receive customary fees and expenses. On November 26, 2024, we entered into a Placement Agency Agreement with A.G.P., whereby A.G.P. agreed to act as the exclusive placement agent in connection with a registered direct offering, as defined in Rule 415(a)(4) promulgated under the Securities Act, of our Ordinary Shares and a concurrent private placement of warrants for an aggregate offering price of up to $1.85 million. We paid A.G.P. a placement agent fee in cash equal to 7.0% of the gross sales price per share sold pursuant to the terms of the Placement Agency Agreement.

 

In the ordinary course of their various business activities, the placement agent and certain of its affiliates may make or hold a broad array of investments and actively trade debt and equity securities (or related derivative securities) and financial instruments (including bank loans) for their own account and for the accounts of their customers, and such investment and securities activities may involve securities and/or instruments issued by us and our affiliates. If the placement agent or its affiliates enter into a lending relationship with us, they will routinely hedge their credit exposure to us consistent with their customary risk management policies. The placement agent and its affiliates may hedge such exposure by entering into transactions that consist of either the purchase of credit default swaps or the creation of short positions in our Securities or the securities of our affiliates, including potentially the ordinary shares offered hereby. Any such short positions could adversely affect future trading prices of our ordinary shares offered hereby. The placement agent and certain of its affiliates may also communicate independent investment recommendations, market color or trading ideas and/or publish or express independent research views in respect of such securities or instruments and may at any time hold, or recommend to clients that they acquire, long and/or short positions in such securities and instruments.

 

This prospectus in electronic format may be made available on a website maintained by the placement agent, and the placement agent may distribute this prospectus electronically.

EXPERTS 

 

The consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 and for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2023 incorporated by reference herein, have been so incorporated in reliance on the report of Ziv Haft, Certified Public Accountants, Isr., BDO Member Firm, an independent registered public accounting firm, incorporated herein by reference, given on the authority of said firm as experts in auditing and accounting. The report on the consolidated financial statements contains an explanatory paragraph regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

 

ENFORCEABILITY OF CIVIL LIABILITIES

 

We are incorporated under the laws of the State of Israel. Service of process upon us and upon our directors and officers and the Israeli experts named in the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, a substantial majority of whom reside outside of the United States, may be difficult to obtain within the United States. Furthermore, because substantially all of our assets and a substantial of our directors and officers are located outside of the United States, any judgment obtained in the United States against us or any of our directors and officers may not be collectible within the United States.

 

We have been informed by our legal counsel in Israel, Sullivan & Worcester Tel Aviv (Har-Even & Co.), that it may be difficult to assert U.S. securities law claims in original actions instituted in Israel. Israeli courts may refuse to hear a claim based on a violation of U.S. securities laws because Israel is not the most appropriate forum to bring such a claim. In addition, even if an Israeli court agrees to hear a claim, if U.S. law is found to be applicable, the content of applicable U.S. law must be proved as a fact which can be a time-consuming and costly process. Certain matters of procedure will also be governed by Israeli law. 

 

Subject to specified time limitations and legal procedures, Israeli courts may enforce a U.S. judgment in a civil matter which, subject to certain exceptions, is non-appealable, including judgments based upon the civil liability provisions of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and including a monetary or compensatory judgment in a non-civil matter, provided that among other things:

 

●

the judgment is obtained after due process before a court of competent jurisdiction, according to the laws of the state in which the judgment is given;

 

●

the judgment is final and is not subject to any right of appeal;

 

●

The prevailing law of the foreign state in which the judgment was rendered allows for the enforcement of judgments of Israeli courts. However, the court may enforce a foreign judgment, even without reciprocity, based on the request of the Attorney General, under certain circumstances;

  

●

the liabilities under the judgment are enforceable according to the laws of the State of Israel and the judgment and the enforcement of the civil liabilities set forth in the judgment is not contrary to the public policy in Israel;

 

●

the judgment was not obtained by fraud, there was reasonable opportunity for the defendant to present their case, the judgment was given by an authorized court to issue it under the applicable international private law rules in Israel, the judgement does not conflict with any other valid judgments in the same matter between the same parties, and an action between the same parties in the same matter is not pending in any Israeli court at the time the lawsuit is initiated in the foreign court;

  

	●	the judgment is enforceable according to the laws of Israel and according to the law of the foreign state in which the relief was granted; and
	●	enforcement may be denied if it could harm the sovereignty or security of Israel.

 

If a foreign judgment is declared enforceable by an Israeli court, it generally will be payable in Israeli currency. The conversion to Israeli currency will be based on the latest official exchange rate published by the Bank of Israel before the payment date. However, the obligated party will fulfil its duty by the judgment even if they choose to make the payment in the same foreign currency, subject to the laws governing the foreign currency applicable at that time.

 

Pending collection, the amount of the judgment of an Israeli court stated in Israeli currency ordinarily will be linked to the Israeli CPI plus interest at the annual statutory rate set by Israeli regulations prevailing at the time. Judgment creditors must bear the risk of unfavorable exchange rates.

 

 

WHERE YOU CAN FIND ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

 

We have filed with the SEC a registration statement on Form F-1 under the Securities Act relating to the IPO. This prospectus does not contain all of the information contained in the registration statement. The rules and regulations of the SEC allow us to omit certain information from this prospectus that is included in the registration statement.

We are subject to the information reporting requirements of the Exchange Act that are applicable to foreign private issuers, and under those requirements are filing reports with the SEC. Those other reports or other information may be inspected without charge at the locations described above. As a foreign private issuer, we are exempt from the rules under the Exchange Act related to the furnishing and content of proxy statements, and our officers, directors and principal shareholders are exempt from the reporting and short-swing profit recovery provisions contained in Section 16 of the Exchange Act. In addition, we are not required under the Exchange Act to file annual, quarterly and current reports and financial statements with the SEC as frequently or as promptly as U.S. companies whose securities are registered under the Exchange Act. However, we will file with the SEC, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year, or such applicable time as required by the SEC, an annual report on Form 20-F containing financial statements audited by an independent registered public accounting firm, and will submit to the SEC, on foreign private issuer reports on Form 6-K, unaudited interim financial information.

 

We maintain a corporate website at www.wearabledevices.co.il. Information contained on, or that can be accessed through, our website does not constitute a part of this prospectus. We have included our website address in this prospectus solely as an inactive textual reference. We will post on our website any materials required to be so posted on such website under applicable corporate or securities laws and regulations, including, posting any XBRL interactive financial data required to be filed with the SEC and any notices of general meetings of our shareholders.
