NEXERA
TECHNOLOGIES LTD
INTRODUCTION
In this Annual Report on Form 20-F, or this Annual Report, “we,” “us,” “our,” the “Company” and “NEXR” refer to Nexera Technologies Ltd (formerly, Jeffs’ Brands Ltd).
We are a data driven e-commerce company operating primarily on the Amazon marketplace, or Amazon, and we have recently begun expanding into the global homeland security, or HLS, sector through advanced artificial intelligence, or AI, driven solutions. We were incorporated in Israel in March 2021, under the name Jeffs’ Brands Ltd, to provide various services, such as management, operation and logistics, marketing and financial services to our subsidiaries that operate online stores for the sale of various consumer products on Amazon, utilizing the Fulfillment by Amazon, or FBA, model.
On December 23, 2025, we announced a planned corporate rebranding to reflect our intended strategic focus on HLS and advanced technologies, or the Corporate Rebranding. The planned Corporate Rebranding began with the name change of our subsidiary “Jeffs’ Brands Holdings Inc.” to “KeepZone AI Inc.” on December 2, 2025 and the entry of KeepZone into a distribution agreement with Scanary Ltd., or Scanary, an Israeli deep-tech developer of 3D imaging, electromagnetic, and AI-powered threat detection systems, on December 4, 2025, or the Scanary Agreement. We also changed the Company’s name to “Nexera Technologies Ltd”, effective as of March 26, 2026.
As of the date of this Annual Report, we have seven wholly or majority owned subsidiaries, held directly by us or through our subsidiaries: Fort Technology Inc., or Fort Technology, Smart Repair Pro, Top Rank Ltd., Fort Products Limited., or Fort, KeepZone AI Inc. (formerly Jeffs’ Brands Holdings Inc.), or KeepZone, Fort Products LLC and Pure NJ Logistics LLC, or Pure Logistics. We also hold, through our subsidiary, KeepZone, a minority interest in SciSparc Nutraceuticals Inc., or SciSparc Nutraceuticals, to whom we provide a variety of professional and business support services.
In addition to executing the FBA business model, we utilize internal methodologies to analyze sales data and patterns on Amazon in order to identify existing stores, niches and products that have the potential for development and growth, and to maximize sales of existing proprietary products. We also use our own skills, know-how and profound familiarity with Amazon’s algorithm and all the tools that the FBA platform has to offer. In some circumstances we scale the products and improve them. As a supplement to our e-commerce operations, Pure Logistics operates a strategically located logistics center in New Jersey, which we anticipate will strengthen our supply chain and third-party service offerings. We also aim to deliver comprehensive, multi-layered security ecosystems for critical infrastructure worldwide, capitalizing on the HLS market’s significant growth potential while leveraging our expertise in data-driven operations.
Our reporting currency and functional currency is the U.S. dollar. Unless otherwise expressly stated or the context otherwise requires, references in this Annual Report to “NIS” are to New Israeli Shekels, and references to “dollars” or “$” mean U.S. dollars.
Effective as of market open on November 20, 2024, we conducted a reverse share split, or the November 2024 Reverse Split of our issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares at a ratio of 1-for-13. Additionally, effective as of market open on June 16, 2025, we conducted a reverse share split of our issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares at a ratio of 1-for-17, or the June 2025 Reverse Split. Effective as of market open on February 17, 2026, we conducted a reverse share split of our issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares, at a ratio of 1-for-14, or the February 2026 Reverse Split, and together with the November 2024 Reverse Split and the June 2025 Reverse Split, the Reverse Splits. All descriptions of our share capital, including share amounts and per share amounts prior to the effective dates of the Reverse Splits in this Annual Report are presented after giving effect to the Reverse Splits.
We report our financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or U.S. GAAP. Unless derived from our financial statements or otherwise noted, amounts presented in this Annual Report are translated at the rate of NIS 3.19 = USD 1.00, the exchange rate between the NIS and the U.S. dollar, NIS 4.29 = GBP 1.00, the exchange rate between the NIS and the Great British Pound, or GBP, and 0.7436 GBP = USD 1.00, the exchange rate between the GBP and USD, NIS 2.3275 = CAD 1.00, the exchange rate between the NIS and the Canadian Dollar, or CAD, and 1.3705 CAD = USD 1.00, the exchange rate between the CAD and USD, reported by the Bank of Israel as of December 31, 2025.
This Annual Report includes statistical, market and industry data and forecasts which we obtained from publicly available information and independent industry publications and reports that we believe to be reliable sources. These publicly available industry publications and reports generally state that they obtain their information from sources that they believe to be reliable, but they do not guarantee the accuracy or completeness of the information. Although we believe that these sources are reliable, we have not independently verified the information contained in such publications.

The forward-looking statements made in this Annual Report relate only to events as of the date on which the statements are made. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements made in this Annual Report to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Annual Report or to reflect new information or the occurrence of unanticipated events, except as required by law. We may not actually achieve the plans, intentions or expectations disclosed in our forward-looking statements, and you should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements.

Our business faces significant risks. You should carefully consider the risks described below, together with all of the other information in this Annual Report. The risks described below are not the only risks facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial may also materially and adversely affect our business operations.

See “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” above.
Risks
Related to Our Businesses, Strategies, Technology, and Industry
Wehave a short operating history in an evolving industry and, as a result, our past results may not be indicative of future operating performance.
We have a short operating history in a rapidly evolving industry that may not develop in a manner favorable to our business. Our relatively short operating history makes it difficult to assess our future performance. You should consider our business and prospects in light of the risks and difficulties we may encounter.
Our future success will depend in large part upon our ability to, among other things:
| ● | manage<br> our inventory and supply chain effectively; |
|---|---|
| ● | successfully<br> develop, retain and expand our consumer product offerings and geographic reach; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | compete<br> effectively; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | anticipate<br> and respond to macroeconomic changes; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | effectively<br> manage our growth; |
| --- | --- |
1
| ● | hire,<br> integrate and retain talented people at all levels of our organization; |
|---|---|
| ● | avoid<br> interruptions in our business from information technology downtime, cybersecurity breaches or labor stoppages; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | maintain<br> the quality of our technology infrastructure; and |
| --- | --- |
| ● | develop<br> new features to enhance functionality. |
| --- | --- |
Wemay not be able to manage our growth effectively, and such growth may adversely affect our corporate culture.
We expect to continue to expand our operations and anticipate expanding further as we pursue our growth strategies. Such expansion increases the complexity of our business and places a significant strain on our management, operations, technical systems, financial resources and internal control over financial reporting functions. Our current and planned personnel, systems, procedures and controls may not be adequate to support and effectively manage our future operations, especially as we employ personnel in several geographic locations.
We are currently in the process of transitioning certain of our business and financial systems to systems on a scale reflecting the increased size, scope and complexity of our operations, and the process of migrating our legacy systems could disrupt our ability to timely and accurately process information, which could adversely affect our results of operations and cause harm to our reputation. As a result, we may not be able to manage our expansion effectively.
Our entrepreneurial and collaborative culture is important to us, and we believe it has been a major contributor to our success. We may have difficulties maintaining our culture or adapting it sufficiently to meet the needs of our future and evolving operations as we continue to grow, in particular as we grow internationally.
Oure-commerce operations are reliant on Amazon and FBA and changes to Amazon, Amazon’s services and their terms of use may harm ourbusiness.
Our products are sold predominantly on Amazon and orders are fulfilled entirely by Amazon utilizing the FBA model. In order to continue to utilize Amazon and the FBA model, we must comply with the applicable policies and terms of use relating to these services. Such policies and terms of use may be altered or amended at Amazon’s sole discretion, including changes regarding the cost of securing these services, and changes that increase the burden of compliance with its requirements, may cause us to significantly alter our business model or incur additional costs in order to comply, which could negatively impact our results of operations. Non-compliance with applicable terms of use and policies can result in the removal of one or more products from the marketplace and suspension of fulfillment services either of which could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of our operations. Although we exert efforts in order to ensure ongoing compliance and no notices of non-compliance have been received to date, we cannot assure you that events of this kind will not occur in the future.
Werely on other information technologies and systems to operate our business and to maintain our competitiveness, and any failure to investin and adapt to technological developments and industry trends could harm our business.
We depend on sophisticated information technologies and systems, technology and systems used for websites and apps, customer service, logistics and fulfillment, supplier connectivity, communications and administration. As our operations grow in size, scope and complexity, we will need to continuously improve and upgrade our systems and infrastructure to offer an increasing number of consumer-enhanced services, features and functionalities, while maintaining and improving the reliability and integrity of our systems and infrastructure.
Our future success also depends on our ability to assimilate different analytical tools as well as internal methodologies, including logistics and fulfillment platform which leverages, to meet rapidly evolving e-commerce trends and demands. The emergence of alternative platforms may require us to continue to invest in new and costly technology. We may not be successful, or we may be less successful than our competitors, in adopting technologies that operate effectively across multiple e-commerce platforms, which would negatively impact our business and financial performance. New developments in other areas, such as cloud computing providers, could also make it easier for competitors to enter our markets due to lower up-front technology costs. In addition, we may not be able to maintain our existing systems or replace our current systems or introduce new technologies and systems as quickly or cost effectively as we would like. Failure to invest in and adapt to technological developments and industry trends may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects.

Werely on data provided by third parties, the loss of which could limit the functionality of our platforms, cause us to invest in the wrongproduct or disrupt our business.
We use third party software to determine market trends and what markets to enter into. Our ability to successfully use this software depends on our ability to analyze and utilize data, including search engine results, provided by unaffiliated third parties, primarily, Google and Amazon. Some of this data is provided to us pursuant to third-party data sharing policies and terms of use, under data sharing agreements by third-party providers or by customer consent. The majority of this data is sourced for free or for de minimis amounts. These sources of data allow us, along with artificial intelligence (AI) tools to determine trends, performance and consumer sentiment on products and searches within e-commerce platforms. This functionality allows us to help determine which products to market, in some cases manufacture through contract manufacturers, import and sell on e-commerce marketplaces. The connection to multiple e-commerce platforms through application programming interfaces, or APIs, allows us to develop the automation of the purchase of marketing and automate the change of pricing of product listings on those e-commerce platforms.
In the future, any of these third parties could change its data sharing policies, including making them more restrictive, charging fees or altering its algorithms that determine the placement, display and accessibility of search results and social media updates, any of which could result in the loss of, or significant impairment to, our ability to collect useful data. These third parties could also interpret our service providers’, data collection policies or practices as being inconsistent with their policies, which could result in the loss of our ability to collect this data. Privacy concerns may cause end users to resist providing the personal data necessary to allow us to determine market trends as well as our ability to effectively retain existing customers. Privacy advocacy groups and the technology and other industries are considering various new, additional or different self-regulatory standards that may place additional burdens on us. Any such changes could impair our ability to use data and could adversely impact select functionality of our proprietary software, impairing our ability to use this data to anticipate customer demand and market trends, as well as adversely affecting our business and our ability to generate revenue.
Ifwe fail to keep up with rapid technological changes, our future success may be adversely affected.
Modern technologies are subject to rapid changes and our technology is yet to be fully automated. Our future success will depend on our ability to respond to rapidly changing technologies, to adapt and further develop our own functionality or our services to our evolving industry and to improve the performance and reliability of our systems. Our failure to adapt to such changes could harm our business.
In addition, the widespread adoption of networking or telecommunications technologies or other technological changes could require substantial expenditures to modify or adapt our products, services or infrastructure. If we fail to keep up with rapid technological changes to remain competitive in our rapidly evolving industry, our future success may be adversely affected.
AIpresents risks and challenges that can impact our business by posing security risks to our confidential information, proprietary informationand personal data.
Issues in the development and use of AI, combined with an uncertain regulatory environment, may result in reputational harm, liability or other adverse consequences to our business operations. As with many technological innovations, AI presents risks and challenges that could impact our business. We utilize AI tools in the provisions of our services and work with vendors that incorporate AI tools into their offerings and we, or the vendors we work with, may not meet existing or rapidly evolving regulatory or industry standards with respect to privacy and data protection and may inhibit our or our vendors’ ability to maintain an adequate level of service and experience. If we, our vendors, or our third-party partners experience an actual or perceived breach or privacy or security incident because of the use of AI, we may lose valuable intellectual property and confidential information and our reputation and the public perception of the effectiveness of our security measures could be harmed. Further, bad actors around the world use increasingly sophisticated methods, including the use of AI, to engage in illegal activities involving the theft and misuse of personal information, confidential information and intellectual property. Any of these outcomes could damage our reputation, result in the loss of valuable property and information and adversely impact our business.

Ourbusiness depends on our ability to build and maintain strong product listings on e-commerce platforms. We may not be able to maintainand enhance our product listings if we receive a substantial number of customer complaints, negative publicity or otherwise fail to liveup to customers’ expectations, any of which could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and growth prospects.
Maintaining and enhancing our product listings is critical in expanding and growing our business. However, a significant portion of our perceived performance to the customer depends on third parties outside of our control, including suppliers and logistics providers such as FedEx, UPS, postal services and other third-party delivery agents and online retailers, mainly Amazon. Because our agreements with our online retail partners are generally terminable at will, we may be unable to maintain these relationships, and our results of operations could fluctuate significantly from period to period. Because we rely on third party logistics companies, like FedEx, to deliver our products, we are subject to shipping delays or disruptions caused by inclement weather, natural disasters, labor activism, health epidemics or bioterrorism. In addition, because we rely on national, regional and local transportation companies for the delivery of some of our other products, we are also subject to risks of breakage or other damage during delivery by any of these third parties. If these third parties do not meet our or our customers’ expectations, our brands may suffer irreparable damage. In addition, maintaining and enhancing our current and future brands may require us to make substantial investments, and these investments may not yield sufficient returns. If we fail to promote and maintain our brands, or if we incur excessive expenses in this effort, our business, operating results and financial condition may be materially adversely affected. We anticipate that, as our market becomes increasingly competitive, maintaining and enhancing our brands may become increasingly difficult and expensive. Maintaining and enhancing our brands will depend largely on our ability to anticipate market trends and customer demand and to provide high quality products to our customers and a reliable, trustworthy and profitable sales channel to our suppliers, which we may not be able to do successfully.
A substantial number of customer complaints or negative publicity about our sites, products, delivery times, customer data handling and security practices or customer support, especially on blogs, social media websites or our sites, could rapidly and severely diminish consumer views of our products and result in harm to our brands. Customers may also make safety-related claims regarding products sold through our online retail partners, such as Amazon, which may result in an online retail partner removing the product from its marketplace. Such removal may materially impact our financial results depending on the product that is removed and the length of time that it is removed. We also use and rely on other services from third parties, such as our telecommunications services, and those services may be subject to outages and interruptions that are not within our control.
Ourefforts to acquire or retain customers, and our efforts to sell new products or increase sales of our existing products, may not be successful,which could prevent us from maintaining or increasing our sales.
If we do not successfully promote and sustain our new and/or existing product listings and brands through marketing and other tools, we may fail to maintain or increase our sales. Promoting and positioning our brands and product listings will depend largely on the success of our marketing efforts, our ability to attract customers cost effectively and our ability to consistently provide a high-quality product and maintain consumer satisfaction. We also use promotions to drive sales, which may not be effective and may adversely affect our gross margins. Our investments in marketing may not effectively reach potential customers, potential customers may decide not to buy our products or the spending of customers that purchase from us may not yield the intended return on investment, any of which could negatively affect our financial results. The failure of our marketing activities could also adversely affect our ability to promote our product listings and sell our products, and to develop and maintain relationships with our customers, retailers and brands, which may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects.

Ifwe fail to acquire new customers or retain existing customers, including end customers with respect to sales generated using the FBAor FBM model, or fail to do so in a cost-effective manner, we may not be able to achieve profitability.
Our success depends on our ability to acquire and retain customers, including end customers from e-commerce platforms, such as Amazon, in a cost-effective manner. In order to expand our customer base, we must appeal to and acquire customers who have historically used other channels to purchase the wide variety of products we offer and may prefer alternatives to our offerings, such as those offered by other vendors on Amazon, traditional brick-and-mortar retailers and the websites of our competitors or our suppliers’ own websites. We expect competition in e-commerce generally to continue to increase. Competitors have introduced lower cost or differentiated products that are perceived to compete with our products. If we are unable to correctly anticipate market trends and customer demand, our ability to sell our products could be impaired. If we fail to deliver quality products, or if customers do not perceive the products we offer to be of high value and quality, we may not be able to acquire new customers. If we are unable to acquire new customers who purchase products in numbers sufficient to grow our business, we may not be able to generate the scale necessary to drive beneficial network effects with our suppliers, our net revenue may decrease and our business, financial condition and operating results may be materially adversely affected.
We believe new customers, including end customers from e-commerce platforms, such as Amazon, can originate from word-of-mouth and other non-paid referrals from existing customers. Therefore, we must ensure that our existing customers, including end customers from e-commerce platforms, such as Amazon, remain loyal to us in order to continue receiving those referrals. If our efforts to satisfy our existing customers are not successful, we may lose these customers or we may not be able to acquire new customers in sufficient numbers to continue to grow our business, or we may be required to incur significantly higher marketing expenses in order to acquire new customers. For example, since 2016, Amazon has maintained a policy whereby they will purge all reviews they believe are paid for. While we do not ask customers to leave a positive review or change a review, some of our reviews may be purged by Amazon in accordance with this policy if Amazon believes they were questionable or not authentic. If Amazon purges reviews or if we are unable to maintain our positive reviews, it may adversely affect our ability to acquire new customers or retain existing ones.
In addition, we believe that Amazon has, from time to time, placed limitations on the daily volume of reviews that may be provided for any specific product listing. This limitation or others relating to customer engagement with our product listings could impact the success of our product listings, which could adversely impact our financial performance.
Ifwe fail to offer high-quality customer support, our business and reputation may suffer.
High-quality education and training of customer support personnel to deliver high-quality customer support are important for the successful retention of existing customers. Providing this education, training and support requires that our support personnel have specific knowledge and expertise of our products and markets, making it more difficult for us to hire experienced personnel and to scale up our support operations. The importance of high-quality customer support will increase as we expand our business and pursue new customers. If we do not provide effective and timely ongoing support, our ability to retain existing customers may suffer, and our reputation with existing or potential customers may be harmed, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects. As we rely on Amazon’s customer support services for the majority of our customer support, the quality, timeliness, and availability of customer support to its customers is not in our control unless we expend significant time and resources developing our internal customer support capabilities, and even if such capabilities are developed customers may still choose to utilize Amazon’s customer support over direct customer support offered by us.
Ourefforts to expand our business into new brands, products, services, technologies and geographic regions will subject us to additionalbusiness, legal, financial and competitive risks and may not be successful.
Our business success depends to some extent on our ability to expand our consumer offerings by launching new brands, products and services and by expanding our existing offerings into new geographic regions.
Our strategy is to use our skills to determine which markets to enter and optimize the mix of products and services that we offer.
5
Launching new brands, products and services requires significant upfront investments, including investments in marketing (namely digital marketing and pay per click), information technology and additional personnel. We operate in highly competitive industries with relatively low barriers to entry and must compete successfully in order to grow our business. We may not be able to generate satisfactory revenue from these efforts to offset these costs. Any lack of market acceptance of our efforts to launch new brands, products or services or to expand our existing offerings could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. Further, as we continue to expand our fulfillment capability or add new businesses with different requirements, our logistics networks will become increasingly complex and operating them will become more challenging. There can be no assurance that we will be able to operate our networks effectively.
We have also entered and may continue to enter new markets and provide product offerings in which we have limited or no experience, which may not be successful or appealing to our customers.
The consumer packaged goods, or CPG, industry is subject to evolving standards and practices, as well as changing consumer needs, requirements and preferences. Our ability to attract new customers and increase revenue from existing customers depends, in part, on our ability to enhance and improve our existing tools that enable us to pinpoint new markets and introduce new products. The success of any enhancements or new instruments depends on, in part, market-accepted pricing levels and overall market acceptance. We may not be successful in these efforts, which could result in significant expenditures that could impact our revenue or distract management’s attention from current offerings.
Increased emphasis on the sale of new products could distract us from sales of our existing products in existing markets, negatively affecting our overall sales. We have invested and expect to continue to invest in new businesses, products, features, services and technologies. Such endeavors may involve significant risks and uncertainties, including insufficient revenue from such investments to offset any new liabilities assumed and expenses associated with these new investments, inadequate return of capital on our investments, distraction of management from current operations and unidentified issues not discovered in our due diligence of such investments that could cause us to fail to realize the anticipated benefits of such investments and incur unanticipated liabilities. Because these new strategies and offerings are inherently risky, no assurance can be given that they will be successful. Our new features or enhancements could fail to attain sufficient market acceptance for many reasons, including:
| ● | delays<br> in introducing products in new markets; |
|---|---|
| ● | failure<br> to accurately predict market demand or end consumer preferences; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | introduction<br> of competing products; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | poor<br> financial conditions for our customers or poor general macroeconomic conditions; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | changes<br> in legal or regulatory requirements, or increased legal or regulatory scrutiny, adversely affecting our products; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | failure<br> of our brands and products digital promotion activities or negative publicity about the performance or effectiveness of our existing<br> brands and products; and |
| --- | --- |
| ● | disruptions<br> or delays in the online retailers and, or in addition to, logistics providers distributing our products. |
| --- | --- |
There is no assurance that we will successfully identify new opportunities or develop and bring new products to market on a timely basis, which could materially and adversely affect our business and operating results and compromise our ability to generate revenue.
6
Potentialgrowth of our businesses is based on international expansion, making us susceptible to risks associated with international sales andoperations.
We intend to expand our operations into new markets and geographies. For example, in 2024 and in 2025, we expanded the Fort brands into France, Germany, Spain, Italy, Belgium, Netherlands and certain other European countries, and completed the requisite processes in order to offer certain of our products through Amazon in additional European countries, including Poland and the Czech Republic. We may not be successful in increasing our sales in any or all territories and currently do not have an estimated commencement date for sales in these additional European markets.
Conducting international operations subjects us to certain risks, which include localization of solutions and products and adapting them to local practices and regulatory requirements, exchange rate fluctuations and unexpected changes in tax, trade laws, tariffs, governmental controls and other trade restrictions. To the extent that we do not succeed in expanding our operations internationally and managing the associated legal and operational risks, our results of operations may be adversely affected.
There are a number of risks inherent in international activities, including: unexpected changes in governmental policies concerning the import and export of goods; services and technology and other regulatory requirements; tariffs and other trade barriers; costs and risks of localizing products for foreign languages; longer accounts receivable payment cycles; limits on repatriation of earnings; the burdens of complying with a wide variety of foreign laws; and difficulties supervising and managing local personnel. As such, our operations may be adversely affected by changes in foreign government policies and legislation or social instability and other factors which are not within our control, including, but not limited to, changes in regulatory requirements, economic sanctions, terrorist activities, political unrest, border disputes, implementation of tariffs and other trade barriers and protectionist practices, volatility of financial markets, labor disputes and other risks arising out of foreign governmental sovereignty over the areas in which our operations are conducted. Laws and policies of foreign jurisdictions affecting foreign trade, taxation and investment may have a material adverse effect on our operations.
Given the current volatility concerning the implementation of international tariffs by the United States, including tariffs imposed on Israel, the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, and China, the risk of tariff related impacts on our business has increased. Tariffs imposed on Israel, the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, and China, or other jurisdictions applying to our products may force us to raise the prices of our products, which may in turn affect our ability to successfully market our products and grow or maintain our business.
In addition, retaliatory tariffs, trade restrictions or supply chain disruptions resulting from changes in trade policy may increase our costs, reduce margins, or limit our ability to source products or components on commercially reasonable terms.
If our operations are disrupted and/or the economic integrity of our contracts is threatened for unexpected reasons, our business may be harmed. In the event of a dispute arising in connection with our operations in a foreign jurisdiction where we conduct business, we may be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of foreign courts or may not be successful in subjecting foreign persons to the jurisdictions of the courts of the United States or Canada or enforcing U.S. or Canadian judgments in such other jurisdictions.
Useof social media and email may adversely impact our reputation or subject us to fines or other penalties.
We use social media and email as part of our digital marketing efforts. As laws and regulations rapidly evolve to govern the use of these channels, the failure by us, our employees or third parties acting at on our behalf to abide by applicable laws and regulations in the use of these channels could adversely affect our reputation or subject us to fines or other penalties. In addition, our employees or third parties acting on our behalf may knowingly or inadvertently make use of social media in ways that could lead to the loss or infringement of intellectual property, as well as the public disclosure of proprietary, confidential or sensitive personal information of our business, employees, customers or others. Any such inappropriate use of social media or email could also cause reputational damage.
Customers value readily available information concerning retailers and their goods and services and often act on such information without further investigation and with no regard to its accuracy. Our customers may engage with us online through our social media platforms, including Facebook and Instagram, by providing feedback and public commentary about all aspects of our business. Information concerning us or our retailers and brands, whether accurate or not, may be posted on social media platforms at any time and may have a disproportionately adverse impact on our brand, reputation or business. The harm may be immediate without affording us an opportunity for redress or correction and could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects.
7
Ifour emails are not delivered and accepted or are routed by email providers less favorably than other emails, or our sites or mobile applicationsare not accessible or are treated disadvantageously by Internet service providers, our business may be substantially harmed.
If email providers or Internet service providers, or ISPs, implement new restrictive email or content delivery or accessibility policies, including with respect to net neutrality, or begin enforcement of existing policies, it may become more difficult to deliver emails to our customers or for customers to access our sites, products and services. For example, certain email providers, including Google, categorize our emails as “promotional”, and these emails are directed to an alternate, and less readily accessible, section of a customer’s inbox. If email providers materially limit or halt the delivery of our emails, or if we fail to deliver emails to customers in a manner compatible with email providers’ email handling or authentication technologies, our ability to contact customers through email could be significantly restricted. In addition, if we are placed on “spam” lists or lists of entities that have been involved in sending unwanted, unsolicited emails, our operating results and financial condition could be substantially harmed. Further, if ISPs prioritize or provide superior access to our competitors’ content, our business and results of operations may be negatively impacted.
Ifwe are unable to manage our inventory effectively, our operating results could be adversely affected.
To ensure timely delivery of products, we generally enter into purchase orders in advance with manufacturers. As a result, we are vulnerable to demand and pricing shifts and to suboptimal selection and timing of product purchases. We rely on our procurement team to order products and we rely on our data analytics to inform the levels of inventory we purchase, including when to reorder items that are selling well and when to write off items that are not selling well. In these instances, we may be unable to always predict the appropriate demand for our products by customers with accuracy, which may result in inventory shortages, inventory write offs and lower gross margins.
If our sales and procurement teams do not predict demand well or if our algorithms do not help us reorder the right products or write off the right products timely, we may not effectively manage our inventory, which could result in inventory excess or shortages, and our operating results and financial condition could be adversely affected.
Ourbusiness, including our costs and supply chain, is subject to risks associated with sourcing, importing and warehousing.
We source the products we offer from third-party vendors and, as a result, we may be subject to price fluctuations or demand disruptions. Our operating results could be negatively impacted by increases in the prices of our products, and we have no guarantees that prices will not rise. In addition, as we expand into new categories and types of products, we expect that we may not have strong purchasing power in these new areas, which could lead to higher costs than we have historically seen in our current product categories and types. We may not be able to pass increased costs on to customers, which could adversely affect our operating results.
In addition, we cannot guarantee that products we receive from vendors will be of sufficient quality or free from damage or defects, or that such merchandise will not be damaged during shipping or storage. While we take measures to ensure product quality and avoid damage, including evaluating vendor facilities, operations and product samples, conducting inventory inspections and inspecting returned products, we cannot control merchandise while it is out of our possession or prevent all damage while in our distribution centers. We may incur additional expenses and our reputation could be harmed or if current or potential customers believe that our merchandise is not of high quality or may be damaged.
Risksassociated with the suppliers from whom our products are sourced could materially adversely affect our financial performance, as wellas our reputation and brand.
We depend on our ability to provide our customers with a wide range of products from high quality suppliers in a timely and efficient manner. Our agreements with most of our suppliers do not provide for the long-term availability of merchandise or the continuation of particular pricing practices, nor do they usually restrict such suppliers from selling products to other buyers or directly themselves. There can be no assurance that our current suppliers will continue to seek to sell us products on current terms or that we will be able to establish new or otherwise extend current supply relationships to ensure product acquisitions in a timely and efficient manner and on acceptable commercial terms. Our ability to develop and maintain relationships with reputable suppliers and offer high quality products to our customers is critical to our success. If we are unable to develop and maintain relationships with suppliers that would allow us to offer a sufficient amount and variety of quality products on acceptable commercial terms, our ability to satisfy our customers’ needs, and therefore our long-term growth prospects, would be materially adversely affected.
8
We also are unable to predict whether any of the countries in which our suppliers’ products are currently manufactured or may be manufactured in the future will be subject to trade restrictions imposed by the U.S. or foreign governments or the likelihood, type or effect of any such restrictions. Any event causing a disruption or delay of imports from suppliers with international manufacturing operations, including the imposition of additional import restrictions, restrictions on the transfer of funds or increased tariffs or quotas, could increase the cost or reduce the supply of merchandise available to our customers and materially adversely affect our financial performance as well as our reputation and brand. Our competitors may have greater existing inventory positions and other advantages that may allow them to price more competitively relative to our products. Furthermore, some or all of our suppliers’ foreign operations may be adversely affected by political and financial instability, resulting in the disruption of trade from exporting countries, restrictions on the transfer of funds or other trade disruptions.
Manufacturingrisks, including risks related to manufacturing in China, may adversely affect our ability to manufacture our products and could reduceour gross margin and our profitability.
We rely on third party manufacturers in China to manufacture our products. As a result, our business is subject to risks associated with doing business in China, including:
| ● | trade<br> protection measures, such as tariff increases, and import and export licensing and control requirements; |
|---|---|
| ● | potentially<br> negative consequences from changes in tax laws; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | difficulties<br> associated with the Chinese legal system, including increased costs and uncertainties associated with enforcing contractual obligations<br> in China; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | unexpected<br> or unfavorable changes to our supply chain and supplier relationships, including any tariff-related impacts on our supply chain; |
| ● | unexpected<br> or unfavorable changes in regulatory requirements; and |
| --- | --- |
| ● | changes<br> and volatility in currency exchange rates. |
| --- | --- |
Economicregulation, trade restrictions, and increasing manufacturing costs in China could adversely impact our business and results of operations.
We contract with manufacturing facilities in the People’s Republic of China. For many years, the Chinese economy has experienced periods of rapid growth. An increase in the cost of labor or taxes on wages in China may lead to an increase in the cost of goods manufactured in China. Significant increases in wages or wage taxes paid by contract manufacturing facilities may increase the cost of goods manufactured in China which could have a material adverse effect on our profit margins and profitability. Additionally, government trade policies, including the imposition of tariffs, export restrictions, sanctions or other retaliatory measures could limit our ability to source materials and products from China at acceptable prices or at all. For example, both the United States and China have implemented several rounds of tariffs and retaliations with respect to certain products imported from the other country, some of which may impact certain products we import. Moreover, the U.S. Congress passed the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act in an effort to prevent what it views as forced labor and human rights abuses in the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region, or XUAR. If it is determined that our third-party suppliers and manufacturers mine, produce or manufacture our products wholly or in part from the XUAR, then we could be prohibited from importing such products into the U.S. In addition, Chinese trade regulations are in a state of flux, and we may become subject to other forms of taxation, tariffs and duties in China. We do not currently have arrangements with contract manufacturers in other countries that may be acceptable substitutes. We cannot predict what actions may ultimately be taken with respect to tariffs, export controls, countermeasures, or other trade measures between the U.S. and China or other countries and what products may be subject to such actions. To the extent such actions inhibit our transactions with contract manufacturing facilities and suppliers in China, our business may be materially adversely affected.
9
Recentand further changes in the tariff and trade policies of the United States or of other countries could increase manufacturing costs, decreasedemand for our solution, disrupt supply chains, or otherwise adversely affect our business and financial condition.
There is currently significant uncertainty about the future relationship between the United States and its trading partners with respect to trade policies, tariffs, and similar policies affecting cross-border operations. The U.S. government has made and continues to make significant additional changes in U.S. trade policy, specifically tariffs, and may continue to take future actions that could negatively impact our business.
In recent periods, the United States has imposed additional tariffs on imports from certain trading partners, including China, Canada and Mexico, and has implemented or expanded tariffs pursuant to Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962 on certain categories of goods. In addition, reciprocal or retaliatory tariff measures have been announced or implemented by various countries. The scope, duration and applicability of these tariffs and any related exemptions remain subject to change and interpretation. The U.S. Department of Commerce has also initiated additional investigations under Section 232 with respect to certain product categories, and additional tariffs could be imposed in the future. These developments underscore the ongoing uncertainty surrounding global trade relationships.
In response to these and other U.S. trade measures, China, Canada, and other affected countries have taken retaliatory actions, including the imposition of retaliatory tariffs on imports of products of U.S. origin, the imposition of export controls on a wide array of products (including rare earth metals and other critical minerals), and other restrictive measures. Continued escalation of tariffs and other trade measures could result in broader trade disputes or disruptions to global supply chains. The trade and tariff policies of the United States and other countries are currently fluid and subject to further changes.
These and future changes to trade policy and tariffs could negatively impact our business, as Amazon and third-party sellers, including our brands, frequently transfer goods between fulfillment centers in the U.S. and Canada. As a result, our cross-border shipments may be subject to additional duties, increasing costs and reducing profit margins. In addition, tariffs or trade restrictions affecting countries from which we source products or components could increase manufacturing or procurement costs. The extent of the impact remains uncertain and will depend on evolving trade policies, regulatory interpretations, and potential exemptions. These changes could reduce the attractiveness of cross-border e-commerce and negatively affect our sales volume and revenue.
Shippingis a critical part of our business and any changes in shipping costs or any interruptions in shipping could adversely affect our operatingresults.
If we are not able to negotiate acceptable pricing and other terms with vendors or if vendors experience performance problems or other difficulties, it could negatively impact our operating results and our customers’ experience. We are also subject to volatility in ocean freight rates that are driven, in part, by seasonality, capacity availability and other factors, including fuel-related regulations affecting the shipping industry. In addition, our ability to receive inbound inventory efficiently and ship merchandise to clients may be negatively affected by inclement weather, fire, flood, power loss, earthquakes, labor disputes, acts of war or terrorism and similar factors. We are also subject to risk of damage or loss during delivery by our shipping vendors. If our products are not delivered in a timely fashion or are damaged or lost during the delivery process, our customers could become dissatisfied and cease using our products or services, which would adversely affect our business and operating results.
10
Wedepend on highly skilled personnel, including senior management, and if we are unable to retain or motivate key personnel or hire, retainand motivate qualified personnel, our business could be harmed.
We believe our past success has depended, and our future success depends, on the efforts and talents of our senior management and our highly skilled team members. Our future success depends on our continuing ability to attract, develop, motivate and retain highly qualified and skilled employees. The loss of one or more of our key personnel or the inability to promptly identify a suitable successor to a key role could have an adverse effect on our business.
Competition for key personnel is strong, especially in Israel where our headquarters are located, and we cannot be sure that we will be able to attract and retain a sufficient number of qualified personnel in the future, or that the compensation costs of doing so will not adversely affect our operating results. Similarly, competition for well-qualified employees in all aspects of our business is intense globally. We do not have long-term employment or non-competition agreements with any of our employees. If we do not succeed in attracting well-qualified employees or retaining and motivating existing employees and key senior management with the appropriate skills at cost-effective compensation levels, or if changes to our business adversely affect morale or retention, our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects may be adversely affected.
In addition, in making employment decisions, job candidates often consider the value of the stock options or other equity incentives they are to receive in connection with their employment. If the price of our shares declines, or experiences significant volatility, our ability to attract or retain key employees may be adversely affected. Also, as employee options vest and the lock-up agreements expire, we may have difficulty retaining key employees. If we fail to attract new personnel or fail to retain and motivate our current personnel, our growth prospects could be severely harmed.
Wemay not accurately forecast revenues, profitability and appropriately plan our expenses.
We base our current and future expense levels on our operating forecasts and estimates of future income and operating results. Income and operating results are difficult to forecast because they generally depend on the volume and timing of orders, which are uncertain. Additionally, our business is affected by general economic and business conditions around the world. A softening in income, whether caused by changes in consumer preferences or a weakening in global economies, may result in decreased net revenue levels, and we may be unable to adjust our spending in a timely manner to compensate for any unexpected shortfall in income. This inability could cause our income (loss) from operations after tax in a given quarter to be lower or higher than expected. We also make certain assumptions when forecasting the amount of expense we expect related to our share-based payments, which includes the expected volatility of our share price, and the expected life of equity awards granted. These assumptions are partly based on historical results. If actual results differ from our estimates, our operating results in a given quarter may be lower than expected.
Oure-commerce operation’s operating results are subject to seasonal fluctuations.
The e-commerce business is seasonal in nature and for our Whoobli and our KnifePlanet stores, the fourth quarter is a significant period for our operating results due to the holiday season. As a result, revenues and profits for these two stores generally decline in the first quarter as compared to the fourth quarter of the previous year. Any disruption in our ability to process and fulfill customer orders during the fourth quarter could have a negative effect on our quarterly and annual operating results. For example, if a large number of customers purchase our products in a short period of time due to increased holiday demand, inefficient management of our inventory may prevent us from efficiently fulfilling orders, which may reduce sales and harm our brands.
Generaleconomic factors may adversely affect our business, financial performance and results of operations.
Our business, financial performance and results of operations depend significantly on worldwide macroeconomic economic conditions and their impact on consumer spending. Recessionary economic cycles, higher interest rates, volatile fuel and energy costs, inflation, levels of unemployment, conditions in the residential real estate and mortgage markets, access to credit, consumer debt levels, unsettled financial markets and other economic factors that may affect consumer spending or buying habits could materially and adversely affect demand for our products. In addition, volatility in the financial markets has had and may continue to have a negative impact on consumer spending patterns. A reduction in consumer spending or disposable income may affect us more significantly than companies in other industries and companies with a more diversified product offering. In addition, negative national or global economic conditions may materially and adversely affect our suppliers’ financial performance, liquidity and access to capital. This may affect their ability to maintain their inventories, production levels and/or product quality and could cause them to raise prices, lower production levels or cease their operations.
11
Economic factors such as increased commodity prices, shipping costs, higher costs of labor, insurance and healthcare, and changes in or interpretations of other laws, regulations and taxes may also increase our cost of revenues and our selling, general and administrative expenses, and otherwise adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
Any significant increases in costs may affect our business disproportionately compared to our competitors. Changes in trade policies or increases in tariffs, may have a material adverse effect on global economic conditions and the stability of global financial markets and may reduce international trade.
Naturaldisasters or other unexpected events may adversely affect our operations, particularly our merchandise supply chain and shipping efforts.
Natural disasters, such as earthquakes, hurricanes, tornadoes, floods and other adverse weather and climate conditions; unforeseen public health crises, such as pandemics and epidemics; political crises, such as terrorist attacks, war and other political instability; or other catastrophic events, whether occurring in Israel or internationally, could disrupt our operations in any of our offices and fulfillment centers or the operations of one or more of our third-party providers or vendors. In particular, these types of events could impact our merchandise supply chain, including our ability to ship merchandise to customers from or to the impacted region, and could impact our ability or the ability of third parties to operate our sites and ship merchandise. In addition, these types of events could negatively impact consumer spending in the impacted regions. To the extent any of these events occur, our business and operating results could be adversely affected.
Ourbusiness, operating results and growth rates may be adversely affected by current or future unfavorable economic and market conditionsand adverse developments with respect to financial institutions and associated liquidity risk.
Our business depends on the economic health of the global economies in which we operate. If the conditions in the global economies remain uncertain or continue to be volatile, or if they deteriorate, including as a result of war, terrorism or other geopolitical events, our business, operating results and financial condition may be materially adversely affected. Economic weakness, inflation and increases in interest rates, limited availability of credit, liquidity shortages and constrained capital spending have at times in the past resulted, and may in the future result, in longer and more uncertain sales cycles, slower adoption of new technologies and increased price competition, and could negatively affect our ability to forecast future periods, which could result in an inability to satisfy demand for our products and a loss of market share.
In addition, increases in inflation raise our costs for commodities, labor, materials and services, and failure to secure these on reasonable terms may adversely impact our financial condition. Additionally, increases in inflation, along with the uncertainties surrounding geopolitical developments and global supply chain disruptions, have caused, and may in the future cause, global economic uncertainty and uncertainty about the interest rate environment, which may make it more difficult, costly or dilutive for us to secure additional financing. Rising interest rates may also increase the cost of any existing or future indebtedness. A failure to adequately respond to these risks could have a material adverse impact on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
Although global economic uncertainty has not materially affected our operating results to date, there can be no assurance that future credit and financial market instability or a deterioration in economic conditions will not materially adversely affect us. Our general business strategy may be adversely affected by any such economic downturn, liquidity shortages, volatile business environment or continued unpredictable and unstable market conditions. If the current equity and credit markets deteriorate, or if adverse developments are experienced by financial institutions, it may cause short-term liquidity risk and also make any necessary debt or equity financing more difficult, more costly, more onerous with respect to financial and operating covenants and more dilutive. Failure to secure any necessary financing in a timely manner and on favorable terms could have a material adverse effect on our growth strategy, financial performance and stock price and could require us to alter our operating plans. In addition, there is a risk that one or more of our service providers, financial institutions, manufacturers, suppliers and other partners may be adversely affected by the foregoing risks, which could directly affect our ability to attain our operating goals on schedule and on budget.
12
Wemay acquire other companies or technologies, which could divert our management’s attention, result in additional dilution to ourshareholders and otherwise disrupt our operations and adversely affect our operating results.
Since our initial public offering, or IPO, we have acquired Fort and invested in SciSparc Nutraceuticals and on March 18, 2025, Smart Repair Pro closed the acquisition of Pure Logistics. We may in the future seek to acquire or invest in businesses, features or technologies that we believe could complement or expand our market, enhance our technical capabilities or otherwise offer growth opportunities. The pursuit of potential acquisitions may divert the attention of management and cause us to incur various expenses in identifying, investigating and pursuing suitable acquisitions, whether or not they are consummated. In addition, to the extent that we enter into any term sheets or agreements or otherwise announce any intention to acquire any businesses, features or technologies, any such acquisition would generally be subject to completion of due diligence and required approvals, and there can be no assurance that any such acquisition will occur or be completed in a timely manner, or at all.
If we acquire additional businesses, we may not be able to integrate the acquired operations, existing contracts and technologies successfully or effectively manage the combined business following the acquisition. We also may not achieve the anticipated benefits from any future acquired business due to a number of factors, including:
| ● | failure<br> to identify all of the issues, liabilities or other shortcomings or challenges of an acquired company or technology, including issues<br> related to intellectual property, regulatory compliance practices, revenue recognition or other accounting practices, or employee<br> or client issues; |
|---|---|
| ● | difficulty<br> incorporating acquired technology and rights into our existing algorithm and operations and of maintaining quality and security standards<br> consistent with our brands; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | inability<br> to generate sufficient cashflow to offset acquisition or investment costs; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | incurrence<br> of acquisition-related costs or equity dilution associated with funding the acquisition; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | difficulties<br> and additional expenses associated with supporting legacy products and hosting infrastructure of the acquired business; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | risks<br> of entering new markets or new product categories in which we have limited or no experience; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | diversion<br> of our management’s attention from other business concerns; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | adverse<br> effects to our existing business relationships as a result of the acquisition; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | potential<br> loss of customers, vendors and suppliers from either our current business or an acquired company’s business; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | use<br> of resources that are needed in other parts of our business; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | possible<br> write offs or impairment charges relating to acquired businesses; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | compliance<br> with regulatory matters related to the acquired business or its products; and |
| --- | --- |
| ● | use<br> of substantial portions of our available cash to consummate the acquisition. |
| --- | --- |
In addition, a significant portion of the purchase price of companies we acquire may be allocated to acquired goodwill and intangible assets, which must be assessed for impairment at least annually. In the future, if our acquisitions do not yield expected returns, we may be required to take charges to our operating results based on this impairment assessment process, which could adversely affect our results of operations.
Acquisitions could also result in dilutive issuances of equity securities or the incurrence of debt, which could adversely affect our operating results. If an acquired business fails to meet our expectations, our business, operating results and financial condition may suffer.

Risks
Related to our Logistics Center’s Operations
Wemay be unable to successfully pursue, integrate, or execute upon the Logistics Center operations business of Pure Logistics.
In March 2025, Smart Repair Pro purchased Pure Logistics, a company that operates a strategically located approximately 53,000 square foot logistics center equipped with 12 loading docks in New Jersey. With this acquisition, we anticipate strengthening our supply chain and third-party service offerings as well as supporting our expansion in the U.S.
Our management has limited prior experience in operating a logistics center. There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully implement our new business ventures or successfully operate within this industry, or achieve in strengthening our supply chain and third party service offerings or succeed in expanding our operations in the U.S. The successful integration of a new business also depends on our ability to manage the new business, realize forecasted synergies and full value from the combined business. Our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows could be materially adversely affected if we are unable to successfully integrate Pure Logistics into our existing operations and any inability to do so may also hinder our ability to grow, divert the attention of management and our key personnel, disrupt our business and impair our financial results.
Ourdependence on third parties to provide overseas transportation and domestic distribution services may impact the delivery and qualityof our transportation and logistics services, and any disruption to these services could result in a disruption to our business, negativepublicity, and a slowdown in the growth of our customer base, materially and adversely affecting our business, financial condition, andresults of operations.
As we do not have our own delivery team and networks, our business depends on the services provided by, and relationships with, various independent third parties, to provide truck services and to report certain events to us, including, but not limited to, shipment status information and freight claims. These third-party logistics service providers may not fulfill their obligations to us, which may prevent us from meeting our commitments to our customers. This reliance also could cause delays in reporting certain events, including recognizing claims. In addition, if we are unable to secure sufficient equipment or other transportation services from third parties to meet our commitments to our customers, our operating results could be materially and adversely affected, and our customers could switch to our competitors temporarily or permanently.
Ourbusiness may be disrupted by natural disasters causing supply chain disruptions.
Natural disasters such as earthquakes, tsunamis, hurricanes, tornadoes, floods, or other adverse weather and climate conditions, whether occurring in the United States or abroad, could disrupt our operations and could damage or destroy infrastructure necessary to transport products as part of the supply chain. These events could make it difficult or impossible for us to provide logistics services; disrupt or prevent our ability to perform functions at the corporate level; and/or otherwise impede our ability to continue business operations in a continuous manner consistent with the level and extent of business activities prior to the occurrence of the unexpected event, which could adversely affect our business and results of operations.
Generaleconomic conditions and other events or occurrences that affect the geographic markets where we operate our logistics center may impactour financial results.
We are exposed to general economic conditions, local, regional, national and international economic conditions and other events and occurrences that affect the geographic markets where we operate the logistics center. For example, a strike in the New Jersey port may cause delays or disruptions to the services our logistic center in New Jersey provides, and as a result affect our operations and financial results.
Interruptionsat any of our logistic center and warehouses could materially adversely affect our business.
Pure Logistics operates one logistics center in New Jersey that is responsible for storing products as well as fulfilling and shipping orders for our customers or for third party customers. Fort leases two warehouse facilities in the U.K. and we also have contracts with third party warehouses in the United Kingdom and Europe, which are used for storage of inventory prior to their shipment to Amazon’s warehouses, based on availability. The complete or partial loss or temporary shutdown of any of the Company’s or third parties’ warehouse and distribution facilities (including as a result of fire or other casualty or labor or other disturbances) could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business.

Risks
Related to KeepZone’s Homeland Security Operations
Theadoption of a new business sector may fail to produce any financial returns.
Forecasting our revenues and profitability for a new business sector is inherently uncertain and volatile. Our actual revenues and profitability for KeepZone’s HLS operations may be significantly less than our forecasts. Additionally, the new business sector could fail, resulting in the loss of the Company’s investment in marketing and infrastructure needed to support such new business sector, and the opportunity cost of diverting management and financial resources away from more successful businesses.
KeepZone’soperations may be adversely affected if its strategic partnerships are not successful, or if it fails to maintain its existing partnershipsor develop and enter into new partnerships.
KeepZone’s HLS operations are dependent upon the establishment of strategic partnerships with leading security and defense technology companies and the integration of their respective capabilities into unified, operational security architectures. If these strategic partnerships do not succeed, or if KeepZone lose its exclusivity or other rights to use third-party technologies and/or KeepZone is unable to enter into alternative or strategic agreements or other arrangements on commercially favorable terms, its future profit margins may be adversely affected. Moreover, the execution of these strategic partnerships may divert management’s time and resources, which could impair relationships with clients and other strategic partners and disrupt KeepZone’s operations. The failure to successfully achieve any or all the benefits of its strategic partnerships may undermine KeepZone’s ability to successfully execute its business strategy, and its business, financial condition and results of operations may be harmed as a result.
KeepZoneis materially dependent on third-parties who develop and manufacture the technologies and solutions that it offers to its clients, andthis dependence exposes it to significant risks that could materially adversely affect its operating results.
KeepZone does not currently develop or manufacture any products or solutions. KeepZone relies on third-parties who develop and manufacture the technologies and solutions that it offers to its clients. This dependence exposes KeepZone to a number of significant risks that could harm its ability to meet its obligations to its customers and achieve its business objectives.
The third-party manufacturers may encounter operational difficulties, including problems with manufacturing processes, shortages of raw materials, equipment failures, or issues with managing their supply chain. Any of these could cause significant delays in the delivery of HLS solutions to KeepZone’s clients, impair its ability to meet contractual timelines, and damage its reputation in the market. Third party manufacturers may experience financial difficulties, including insolvency or bankruptcy and such manufacturers must comply with regulatory requirements, including export regulations.
Due to all of these risks, any significant disruption in third party manufacturers’ ability to provide KeepZone with HLS solutions of high quality, on time, and at competitive prices could materially and adversely affect KeepZone’s business, financial condition, and operating results.
Failureto obtain necessary regulatory approvals from the DECA or other governmental agencies, may prevent us from expanding the sales of ourHLS solutions.
KeepZone may be subject, both directly and indirectly, to the adverse impact of existing and potential future government regulation of the HLS solutions it offers, including the related technology, operations and markets. For example, the marketing and export of defense related equipment, services, ‘know-how’ are subject to DECA’s regulation under the Defense Export Control Law, 5766-2007, or the Export Control Law and, collectively, Israeli Trade Control Laws, which impact KeepZone’s operations, for example by limiting our ability to sell, export, or otherwise transfer our products or technology, or to release controlled technology to non-Israeli companies. KeepZone may not be able to retain licenses and other authorizations required under the applicable Israeli Trade Control Laws. The failure to satisfy the requirements under the Israeli Trade Control Laws, including the failure or inability to obtain necessary licenses or qualify for license exceptions, could delay or prevent the development, production, export, import, and/or in-country transfer of the HLS solutions that we offer, which could adversely affect KeepZone’s revenues and profitability.

Risks
Related to our Corporate Rebranding and Restructuring Plan
Ourcorporate rebranding and restructuring plan may not be completed in accordance with the expected plans or anticipated timeline, or atall, and may not achieve the expected results.
On December 23, 2025, we announced the planned Corporate Rebranding to reflect our intended strategic focus on HLS and advanced technologies. The planned Corporate Rebranding began with the name change of our subsidiary “Jeffs’ Brands Holdings Inc.” to “KeepZone AI Inc.” on December 2, 2025 and the entry of KeepZone into a distribution agreement with Scanary, an Israeli deep-tech developer of 3D imaging, electromagnetic, and AI-powered threat detection systems, on December 4, 2025. Effective as of March 26, 2026, we also changed the Company’s name to “Nexera Technologies Ltd”.
On November 29, 2023, we announced that our board of directors resolved to initiate a process to identify potential strategic transactions with the goal of maximizing shareholder value, including the possible transfer of our holdings in our subsidiaries to a separate public company, or the Restructuring Plan. On February 6, 2025, we entered into share purchase agreement, as amended on May 31, 2025, or the Fort Purchase Agreement, pursuant to which, at the closing on July 7, 2025, Fort became a wholly owned subsidiary of Fort Technology and we received a controlling equity interest in Fort Technology, or the Fort Transaction. Other than the Fort Transaction, we did not complete any other initiative under the Restructuring Plan. While there currently are no pending transactions, we may in the future explore other potential new opportunities, activities and investments in a variety of sectors as part of our Restructuring Plan.
Unanticipated developments or changes, including but not limited to, changes in the general or financial market conditions, possible delays in obtaining various regulatory and tax approvals, changes in the law, and challenges in entering into or performing definitive agreements with respect to the transactions could delay or prevent the completion of the Corporate Rebranding and/or our Restructuring Plan or cause the such plans to occur on terms or conditions that are different or less favorable than initially expected. These or other developments could cause us not to realize some or all of the expected benefits of the Corporate Rebranding or Restructuring Plan or to realize them on a different timeline than expected.
TheCorporate Rebranding or Restructuring Plan may not achieve the anticipated benefits and may expose us to additional risks.
We may not realize the anticipated strategic, financial, operational or other benefits of the Corporate Rebranding or Restructuring Plan. We cannot predict with certainty when the benefits expected from these initiatives or transactions will occur or the extent to which they will be achieved. There is no assurance that following the Corporate Rebranding and/or Restructuring Plan, our new and current operations will be successful. Whether or not all or any portion of the Corporate Rebranding or Restructuring Plan is completed, we may face material challenges in connection with the definitive agreements or proposed transactions, including but not limited to, the diversion of management time on matters relating to the Corporate Rebranding and the Restructuring Plan, the impact of having to operate under the terms of any transition service agreements, the impact on our ability to retain talent and potential impacts on our relationships with customers, suppliers, employees and other counterparties. In addition, we will incur one-time costs and ongoing costs in connection with, or as a result of the Corporate Rebranding and the Restructuring Plan, including costs of operating as independent, publicly-traded companies that the separate businesses will no longer be able to share. Those costs may exceed our estimates or could negate some of the benefits we expect to realize. If we do not realize the anticipated benefits of the Corporate Rebranding or Restructuring Plan it could adversely affect our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.
16
Followingthe Corporate Rebranding or the Restructuring Plan, the trading price of our Ordinary Shares may fluctuate significantly.
We cannot predict whether the market value of our Ordinary Shares after the Corporate Rebranding or Restructuring Plan will be, in the aggregate, less than, equal to or greater than the market value of our Ordinary Shares prior to such transactions. The trading price of our Ordinary Shares may be more volatile around the time of the intended rebranding or restructuring.
Therecan be no assurance of active market for the common shares of Fort Technology.
Fort Technology is our majority owned subsidiary. Fort Technology’s common shares trade on the TSX Venture Exchange, or the TSXV. Although Fort Technology has applied to list its common shares on Nasdaq, its common shares have traded only on the TSX Venture Exchange and there has been no public market in the U.S. for Fort Technology’s common shares. There can be no assurance that Fort Technology’s application to list its common shares on Nasdaq will be approved, or that an active trading market in the U.S. will develop or, if developed, that it will be sustained. The lack of an active market may impair our ability to sell our shares held in Fort Technology or impair Fort Technology’s ability to raise capital.
Furthermore, if Fort Technology fails to comply with any of the continued listing requirements of the TSXV or once listed on Nasdaq, such stock exchange may take enforcement actions, which could include the suspension or delisting of Fort Technology’s common shares. In the event of a suspension or delisting, the liquidity of Fort Technology’s common shares would likely be materially and adversely affected, investors may have difficulty buying or selling Fort Technology’s common shares, and the market price of Fort Technology’s common shares could decline significantly. In addition, a delisting could impair Fort Technology’s ability to raise additional capital, limit its ability to use its securities for acquisitions or other strategic transactions, and result in increased volatility and reduced analyst coverage. Any of the foregoing could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
In addition, our rights as a shareholder of Fort Technology are governed by Canadian law (including applicable provincial corporate and securities laws) and TSXV policies, which may differ in material respects from the rights and responsibilities of shareholders of U.S. or Israeli companies.
Risks
Related to Information Technology
Assertionsby third parties of infringement or misappropriation by us of their intellectual property rights or confidential know how could resultin significant costs and substantially harm our business and results of operations.
Our business relies on sophisticated and experienced use and know-how of Amazon’s AI market tracker. Third parties may in the future assert that we have infringed or misappropriated their trademarks, copyrights, confidential know how, trade secrets, patents or other intellectual property rights. We cannot predict whether any such assertions or claims arising from such assertions will substantially harm our business and results of operations, whether or not they are successful. If we are forced to defend against any infringement or other claims relating to the trademarks, copyright, confidential know how, trade secrets, patents or other intellectual property rights of third parties, whether they are with or without merit or are determined in our favor, we may face costly litigation or diversion of technical and management personnel. Furthermore, the outcome of a dispute may be that we would need to cease use of some portion of our systems. Any such assertions or litigation could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects.
17
The e-commerce industry is characterized by vigorous protection and pursuit of intellectual property rights, which has resulted in protracted and expensive litigation for many companies. Some companies, including some of our competitors, own large numbers of patents, copyrights and trademarks, which they may use to assert claims against us. In addition, because patent applications can take years to issue and are often afforded confidentiality for some period of time, there may currently be pending applications, unknown to us, that later result in issued patents that could cover one or more of the technologies we use.
Certain third parties have substantially greater resources than we have and may be able to sustain the costs of intellectual property litigation for longer periods of time than we can. Even if we were to prevail in such a dispute, any litigation regarding the way we operate and utilize our technologies, could be costly and time-consuming and divert the attention of our management and key personnel from our business operations.
Theinability to acquire, use or maintain our marks and domain names for our sites could substantially harm our business and operating results.
We currently have registered trademarks for certain of our brands in numerous jurisdictions and have registered the Internet domain names for Fort’s website. However, we have not registered our trademarks or domain names in all major international jurisdictions. Domain names generally are regulated by Internet regulatory bodies. If we do not have, or cannot obtain on reasonable terms, the ability to use our marks in a particular country or to use or register any of our domain names, we could be forced either to incur significant additional expenses to market our products within that country, including the development of a new brand and the creation of new promotional materials and packaging, or to elect not to sell products in that country. Either result could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results.
Furthermore, the regulations governing domain names and laws protecting marks and similar proprietary rights could change in ways that block or interfere with our ability to use relevant domains or our current brand names. Furthermore, we might not be able to prevent third parties from registering, using or retaining domain names that interfere with our consumer communications or infringe or otherwise decrease the value of our marks, domain names and other proprietary rights. Regulatory bodies also may establish additional generic or country-code top-level domains or may allow modifications of the requirements for registering, holding or using domain names. As a result, we may not be able to register, use or maintain the domain names that utilize the name Jeffs’ Brands or our other brands in all of the countries in which we currently or intend to conduct business.
Anysignificant disruption in service on our websites or in our computer systems, a number of which are currently hosted or provided by third-partyproviders, could materially affect our ability to operate, damage our reputation and result in a loss of customers, which would harmour business and results of operations.
Our ability to sell and market our products relies on FBA platform whose functionality relies upon a number of third-party related services, including those relating to cloud infrastructure, technology services, servers, open-source libraries and vendor APIs. Any disruption or loss of any of these third-party services could have a negative effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects. We may experience interruptions in our systems, including server failures that temporarily slow down or interfere with the performance of our platforms and the ability to sell on e-commerce marketplaces.
Interruptions in these systems, whether due to system failures, human input errors, computer viruses or physical or electronic break-ins, and denial-of-service attacks on us, third-party vendors or communications infrastructure, could affect the availability of our services on our platform and prevent or inhibit the ability of selling our products. Volume of traffic and activity on e-commerce marketplaces spikes on certain days, such as during a Black Friday promotion, and any such interruption would be particularly problematic if it were to occur at such a high-volume time. Problems with the reliability of our systems or third-party marketplaces could prevent us from earning revenue and could harm our reputation. Damage to our reputation, any resulting loss of customers, e-commerce confidence and the cost of remedying these problems could negatively affect our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects.
18
Our ability to maintain communications, network and computer hardware in the countries in which they are used may in the future be subject to regulatory review and licensing, and the failure to obtain any required licenses could negatively affect our business. Our systems and infrastructure are predominately reliant on third parties. Problems faced by our third-party service providers with the telecommunications network providers with whom they contract or with the systems by which they allocate capacity among their users, including us, could adversely affect the experience of our customers. Our third-party service providers could decide to close their facilities without adequate notice. Any financial difficulties, such as bankruptcy or reorganization, faced by our third-party service providers or any of the service providers with whom they contract may have negative effects on our business, the nature and extent of which are difficult to predict. If our third-party service providers are unable to keep up with our needs for capacity, this could have an adverse effect on our business. Any errors, defects, disruptions or other performance problems with our services could harm our reputation and may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects.
Ourfailure or the failure of third parties to protect our sites, networks and systems against security breaches, or otherwise to protectour confidential information and practices, could damage our reputation and brands and substantially harm our business and operatingresults.
We collect, maintain, transmit and store data about our customers, brands and others, including personally identifiable information, as well as other confidential information. We also engage third parties that store, process and transmit these types of information on our behalf. We rely on encryption and authentication technology licensed from third parties in an effort to securely transmit confidential and sensitive information, including credit card numbers. Advances in computer capabilities, new technological discoveries or other developments may result in the whole or partial failure of this technology to protect transaction data or other confidential and sensitive information from being breached or compromised. In addition, our brand’s e-commerce websites are often attacked through compromised credentials, including those obtained through phishing and credential stuffing. Our security measures, and those of our third-party service providers, may not detect or prevent all attempts to breach our systems, denial-of-service attacks, viruses, malicious software, break-ins, phishing attacks, social engineering, security breaches or other attacks and similar disruptions that may jeopardize the security of information stored in or transmitted by our websites, networks and systems or that we or such third parties otherwise maintain, including payment card systems, which may subject us to fines or higher transaction fees or limit or terminate our access to certain payment methods. We and such third parties may not anticipate or prevent all types of attacks until after they have already been launched. Further, techniques used to obtain unauthorized access to sabotage systems change frequently and may not be known until launched against us or our third-party service providers. In addition, security breaches can occur as a result of non-technical issues, including intentional or inadvertent breaches by our employees or by third parties. These risks may increase over time as the complexity and number of technical systems and applications we use also increases.
Breaches of our security measures or those of our third-party service providers or cyber security incidents could result in unauthorized access to our sites, networks, systems and accounts; unauthorized access to, and misappropriation of, consumer information, including customers’ personally identifiable information, or other confidential or proprietary information of ourselves or third parties; viruses, worms, spyware or other malware being served from our sites, networks or systems; deletion or modification of content or the display of unauthorized content on our sites; interruption, disruption or malfunction of operations; costs relating to breach remediation, deployment of additional personnel and protection technologies, response to governmental investigations and media inquiries and coverage; engagement of third-party experts and consultants; or litigation, regulatory action and other potential liabilities. In the past, we have experienced social engineering, phishing, malware and similar attacks and threats of denial-of-service attacks; however, such attacks could in the future have a material adverse effect on our operations. If any of these breaches of security should occur, our reputation and brand could be damaged, our business may suffer, we could be required to expend significant capital and other resources to alleviate problems caused by such breaches, and we could be exposed to a risk of loss, litigation or regulatory action and possible liability. We cannot guarantee that recovery protocols and backup systems will be sufficient to prevent data loss. Actual or anticipated attacks may cause us to incur increasing costs, including costs to deploy additional personnel and protection technologies, train employees and engage third-party experts and consultants.
We may experience periodic system interruptions from time to time. In addition, continued growth in our transaction volume, as well as surges in online traffic and orders associated with promotional activities or seasonal trends in our business, place additional demands on our marketplace platforms and could cause or exacerbate slowdowns or interruptions. If there is a substantial increase in the volume of traffic on our sites or the number of orders placed by customers, we will be required to further expand and upgrade our technology, transaction processing systems and network infrastructure. There can be no assurance that we will be able to accurately project the rate or timing of increases, if any, in the use of our sites or expand and upgrade our systems and infrastructure to accommodate such increases on a timely basis. In order to remain competitive, we must continue to enhance and improve the responsiveness, functionality and features of our sites, which is particularly challenging given the rapid rate at which new technologies, customer preferences and expectations and industry standards and practices are evolving in the e-commerce industry. Accordingly, we redesign and enhance various functions on our sites on a regular basis, and we may experience instability and performance issues as a result of these changes. Our disaster recovery plan may be inadequate, and our business interruption insurance may not be sufficient to compensate us for the losses that could occur.
19
Any compromise or breach of our security measures, or those of our third-party service providers, could violate applicable privacy, data protection, data security, network and information systems security and other laws and cause significant legal and financial exposure, adverse publicity and a loss of confidence in our security measures, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects. We continue to devote significant resources to protect against security breaches, or we may need to devote significant resources in the future to address problems caused by breaches, including notifying affected subscribers and responding to any resulting litigation, which in turn, diverts resources from the growth and expansion of our business. To date, we are not aware of any material compromises or breaches of our networks or systems.
Risks
Related to Legal and Regulatory Matters
Wemay be subject to general litigation, regulatory disputes and government inquiries.
As a growing company with expanding operations, we may in the future increasingly face the risk of claims, lawsuits, government investigations and other proceedings involving competition and antitrust, intellectual property, privacy, consumer protection, accessibility claims, securities, tax, labor and employment, commercial disputes, services and other matters. The number and significance of these disputes and inquiries have increased as the political and regulatory landscape changes, and as we have grown larger and expanded in scope and geographic reach, and our services have increased in complexity.
We cannot predict the outcome of such disputes and inquiries with certainty. Regardless of the outcome, these can have an adverse impact on us because of legal costs, diversion of management resources and other factors. Determining reserves for any litigation is a complex, fact-intensive process that is subject to judgment calls. It is possible that a resolution of one or more such proceedings could require us to make substantial payments to satisfy judgments, fines or penalties or to settle claims or proceedings, any of which could harm our business. These proceedings could also result in reputational harm, criminal sanctions, consent decrees or orders preventing us from offering certain products or services or requiring a change in our business practices in costly ways or requiring development of non-infringing or otherwise altered products or technologies. Litigation and other claims and regulatory proceedings against us could result in unexpected expenses and liabilities, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects.
Afailure to comply with current laws, rules and regulations or changes to such laws, rules and regulations and other legal uncertaintiesmay adversely affect our business, financial performance, results of operations or business growth.
Our business and financial performance could be adversely affected by unfavorable changes in or interpretations of existing laws, rules and regulations or the promulgation of new laws, rules and regulations applicable to us and our businesses, including those relating to the internet and e-commerce, internet advertising and price display, consumer protection, anti-corruption, antitrust and competition, economic and trade sanctions, energy usage and emissions, tax, banking, data security, network and information systems security, data protection and privacy. As a result, regulatory authorities could prevent or temporarily suspend us from carrying on some or all of our activities or otherwise penalize us if our practices were found not to comply with applicable regulatory or licensing requirements or any binding interpretation of such requirements. Unfavorable changes or interpretations could decrease demand for our products or services, limit marketing methods and capabilities, affect our margins, increase costs or subject us to additional liabilities.
For example, there are, and will likely continue to be, an increasing number of laws and regulations pertaining to the internet and e-commerce that may relate to liability for information retrieved from or transmitted over the internet, display of certain taxes and fees, online editorial and consumer-generated content, user privacy, data security, network and information systems security, behavioral targeting and online advertising, taxation, liability for third-party activities and the quality of services. Furthermore, the growth and development of e-commerce may prompt calls for more stringent consumer protection laws and more aggressive enforcement efforts, which may impose additional burdens on online businesses generally.

Ifour products experience any recalls, product liability claims, or government, customer or consumer concerns about product safety, ourreputation and operating results could be harmed.
Our products are subject to regulation by federal, state and international regulatory authorities, and could be subject to involuntary recalls and other actions by these authorities. Concerns about product safety, including concerns about the safety of products manufactured in developing countries, could lead us to recall selected products. Recalls and government, customer or consumer concerns about product safety could harm our reputation and reduce sales, either of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects.
We may also be subject to product liability claims if people or property are harmed by the products we sell. Some of the products we sell may expose us to product liability claims and litigation (including class actions) or regulatory action relating to safety, personal injury, death or environmental or property damage.
Although we maintain liability insurance, we cannot be certain that our coverage will be adequate for liabilities actually incurred or that insurance will continue to be available to us on economically reasonable terms, or at all. Some of our agreements with members of our supply chain may not indemnify us from product liability claims for a particular product, and some members of our supply chain may not have sufficient resources or insurance to satisfy their indemnity and defense obligations.
Anyfailure by us or our vendors to comply with product safety, labor or other laws, or our standard vendor terms and conditions, or to providesafe factory conditions for our or their workers may damage our reputation and brand and harm our business.
The products we sell to our customers are subject to regulation by federal, state and international regulatory authorities. As a result, such products could be in the future subject to recalls and other remedial actions. Product safety, labeling and licensing concerns may require us to voluntarily remove selected merchandise from our inventory. Such recalls or voluntary removal of merchandise can result in, among other things, suspension of our seller accounts on Amazon and other online marketplaces, lost sales, diverted resources, potential harm to our reputation and increased client service costs and legal expenses, which could have a material adverse effect on our operating results.
Some of the products we sell may expose us to product liability claims and litigation or regulatory action relating to personal injury or environmental or property damage. Although we maintain liability insurance and implemented a quality assurance program that includes obtaining necessary certifications, we cannot be certain that our coverage will be adequate for liabilities actually incurred or that insurance will continue to be available to us on economically reasonable terms or at all. In addition, some of our agreements with our vendors may not indemnify us from product liability claims for a particular vendor’s products or our vendors may not have sufficient resources or insurance to satisfy their indemnity and defense obligations.
Weare subject to U.S. governmental regulation and other legal obligations related to privacy, data protection and information security.If we are unable to comply with these, we may be subject to governmental enforcement actions, litigation, fines and penalties or adversepublicity.
We collect personally identifiable information and other data from our customers and prospective customers. We collect this info automatically through the automated sales processes with e-commerce marketplaces. We, at times, may use this information to provide, support, expand and improve our business and tailor our digital marketing and advertising efforts.
21
Our handling of data is subject to a variety of laws and regulations, including regulation by various government agencies, such as the FTC, and various state, local and foreign agencies. Our data handling also is subject to industry standards.
The U.S. federal and various state and foreign governments have adopted or proposed limitations on the collection, distribution, use and storage of data relating to individuals, including the use of contact information and other data for digital marketing, advertising and other communications with individuals and businesses. In the United States, various laws and regulations apply to the collection, processing, disclosure and security of certain types of data. Additionally, the FTC and many state attorneys general are interpreting federal and state consumer protection laws as imposing standards for the online collection, use, dissemination and security of data. The laws and regulations relating to privacy and data security are evolving, can be subject to significant change and may result in ever-increasing regulatory and public scrutiny and escalating levels of enforcement and sanctions.
In the United States, federal and various state governments have adopted or are considering laws, guidelines or rules for the collection, distribution, use and storage of personal information collected from or about customers or their devices. This trend began with the California Consumer Privacy Act, or the CCPA, which took effect on January 1, 2020, as one of the broadest U.S. state privacy laws. The CCPA imposes heightened transparency obligations about data collection, use, and sharing practices, adds restrictions on the transfer of personal information to third parties including for advertising or analytics purposes and grants data privacy rights to consumers. Following the Californian example, , several US states have passed similar privacy laws regulating the processing of personal data, Non-compliance with state privacy laws could result in regulatory investigations and enforcement actions, private litigation (including class actions), significant fines and remediation costs, operational restrictions, and reputational harm. Furthermore, some federal laws such as the Controlling the Assault of Non-Solicited Pornography and Marketing Act, the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act or the FTC Act could also be applicable to some of our activities.
Numerous data protection regimes apply based on where a customer is located, and as we expand and new laws are enacted or existing laws change, we may be subject to new laws, regulations or standards or new interpretations of existing laws, regulations or standards, which could require us to incur additional costs and restrict our business operations. Any failure or perceived failure by us to comply with rapidly evolving privacy or security laws, policies (including our own stated privacy policies), legal obligations or industry standards or any security incident that results in the unauthorized release or transfer of personally identifiable information or other consumer data may result in governmental enforcement actions, litigation (including consumer class actions), fines and penalties or adverse publicity and could cause our customers to lose trust in us, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects.
Additionally, the use of algorithms to scan and analyze data from websites and/or e-commerce platforms may be subject to applicable laws, regulations, and terms of use. There are currently various unresolved court cases surrounding these practices, making it difficult to assess the impact until those issues are resolved. Our actual or alleged failure to comply with applicable laws and regulations or website terms of use could result in enforcement actions and significant penalties against us, which could lead to negative publicity and costs, subject us to claims, fines or other remedies, and have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
Due to rapid changes in technology and the inconsistent interpretations of privacy and data collection and protection laws and regulations, we may be required to materially change the way we conduct business. The challenges imposed by the ongoing need to remain compliant with such laws and regulations, as well the need to implement any changes required based on newly introduced laws and regulations, may slow our growth, and if we are not able to cope with these challenges as effectively as other companies, we will be competitively disadvantaged. Scrapped websites collect data of users on their platform and any limitation on their ability to collect and utilize data, including personal data, would make it more difficult for us to be able to optimize sales, which could render our products less valuable and potentially result in loss of revenue.
22
InEurope, where we expanded our business operations as part of our growth, and in Israel, the data privacy and information security regimecontinues to evolve and is subject to increasing regulatory scrutiny.
The General Data Protection Regulation, or GDPR, implemented more stringent operational requirements for our use of personal data. These more stringent requirements include expanded disclosures to inform our customers about how we may use their personal data, increased controls on profiling customers and increased rights for customers to access, control and delete their personal data. In addition, there are mandatory data breach notification requirements and significantly increased penalties of the greater of €20 million or 4% of global turnover for the preceding financial year.
The U.K.’s Network and Information Systems Regulations 2018, or NIS Regulations, which came into force on May 10, 2018, apply to us as an online marketplace and place additional network and information systems security obligations on us, as well as mandatory security incident notification in certain circumstances with penalties of up to £17 million.
In Israel, we are subject to Israeli privacy and data security laws, including the Israeli Privacy Protection Law, its regulations, and the guidelines of the Israeli Privacy Protection Authority, or the PPA, which impose obligations on how we process, store, secure, access, disclose, and transfer personal data. These requirements may necessitate the implementation or adjustment of contractual, technical, organizational, and information security measures, potentially increasing our costs and affecting our operations. Failure to comply may expose us to enforcement actions, administrative fines and penalties (which in some cases may reach millions of NIS), litigation (including class actions), and, in certain cases, criminal liability.
In recent years, U.S. and European lawmakers and regulators have expressed concern over the use of third-party cookies and similar technologies for online behavioral advertising, and laws in this area are also under reform. Such regulations may have a negative effect on businesses, including ours, that collect and use online usage information for consumer acquisition and marketing, may increase the cost of operating a business that collects or uses such information and undertakes online marketing, it may also increase regulatory scrutiny and increase potential civil liability under data protection or consumer protection laws. Additionally, the U.S. has recently seen an increase in claims and litigation based on the California Invasion of Privacy Act, or CIPA, and the Electronic Communications Privacy Act, or ECPA, in regard to tracking tools such as cookies and similar technologies. This trend exposes companies to potential statutory damages, class action lawsuits, and reputational harm.
These regulations result in significant compliance costs and could result in restricting the growth and profitability of our business by impeding the development of new services. We could incur substantial costs to comply with these regulations. The changes could require significant systems changes, limit the effectiveness of our marketing activities, adversely affect our margins, increase costs and subject us to additional liabilities. Also, it could negatively impact the use or adoption of our services, reduce overall demand for our services, make it more difficult for us to meet expectations from or commitments to our clients, lead to significant fines, penalties, or liabilities for noncompliance, or impact our reputation, any of which could harm our business.
Our business is conducted through the internet and therefore, among other things, we are subject to the laws and regulations that apply to e-commerce and online businesses around the world. These laws and regulations are becoming more prevalent in the United States, Europe, Israel, the United Kingdom and elsewhere and may impede the growth of the internet and consequently our services. These regulations and laws may cover privacy, data collection and protection, location of data storage and processing, cybersecurity, e-commerce, content, use of “cookies,” access changes, “net neutrality,” pricing, advertising, distribution of “spam” copyright and other intellectual property, libel, marketing, distribution of products, protection of minors, consumer protection, and online payment services. We receive, collect, store, process, transfer and use certain data about how viewers and buyers engaged with content and advertisements and helps us to leverage that data to become a better storyteller and maximize sales in different marketplaces. Our ability to access and utilize such data is crucial.
23
Amendmentsto existing tax laws, rules or regulations or enactment of new unfavorable tax laws, rules or regulations could have an adverse effecton our business and financial performance.
Many of the laws, rules or regulations imposing taxes and other similar obligations were established before the growth of the internet and e-commerce. Tax authorities in non-U.S. jurisdictions, including Israel, and at the U.S. federal, state and local levels are currently reviewing the appropriate treatment of companies engaged in e-commerce and considering changes to existing tax or other laws that could regulate our transmissions and/or levy sales, income, consumption, use or other taxes relating to our activities, and/or impose obligations on us to collect such taxes. For example, in March 2018, the European Commission proposed new rules for taxing digital business activities in the EU. In addition, state and local taxing authorities in the United States and taxing authorities in other countries have identified e-commerce platforms as a means to calculate, collect and remit indirect taxes for transactions taking place over the internet. Multiple U.S. states have enacted related legislation and other states are now considering such legislation. Furthermore, the U.S. Supreme Court held in South Dakota v. Wayfair that a U.S. state may require an online retailer to collect sales taxes imposed by that state, even if the retailer has no physical presence in that state, thus permitting a wider enforcement of such sales tax collection requirements. Such legislation could require us or our retailers and brands to incur substantial costs in order to comply, including costs associated with legal advice, tax calculation, collection, remittance and audit requirements, which could make selling in such markets less attractive and could adversely affect our business. Such legislation could require us or our retailers and brands to incur substantial costs in order to comply, including costs associated with legal advice, tax calculation, collection, remittance and audit requirements, which could make selling in such markets less attractive and could adversely affect our business.
We cannot predict the effect of current attempts to impose taxes on commerce over the internet. If such tax or other laws, rules or regulations were amended, or if new unfavorable laws, rules or regulations were enacted, the results could increase our tax payments or other obligations, prospectively or retrospectively, subject us to interest and penalties, decrease the demand for our products if we pass on such costs to the consumer, result in increased costs to update or expand our technical or administrative infrastructure or effectively limit the scope of our business activities if we decided not to conduct business in particular jurisdictions. As a result, these changes may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects.
Weare subject to anti-corruption, anti-bribery, anti-money laundering and similar laws, and non-compliance with such laws can subject usto criminal penalties or significant fines and harm our business and reputation.
Israel Money Laundering and Terror Financing Prohibition Authority, the SEC, the U.S. Department of Justice, the U.S. Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Controls, or OFAC, the U.S. Department of State, and other international regulatory authorities, continue to enforce economic and trade regulations and anti-corruption laws across industries. U.S. trade sanctions relate to transactions with designated foreign countries and territories, including Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Syria and the Crimea region of Ukraine, or Crimea, as well as specifically targeted individuals and entities that are identified on U.S. and other blacklists, and those owned by them or those acting on their behalf.
Anti-corruption laws, including the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, or the FCPA, the U.K. Bribery Act, or the Bribery Act, and Israel Penal Code section 291a, generally prohibit direct or indirect corrupt payments to government officials and, under certain laws, private persons to obtain or retain business or an improper business advantage. Some of our international operations are conducted in parts of the world where it is common to engage in business practices that are prohibited by these laws.
Although we comply with laws and regulations, especially as we expand our operations in existing and new jurisdictions which proportionately adds risks of non-compliance with applicable laws and regulations, our employees, partners or agents could take actions that violate applicable laws or regulations. As regulations continue to develop and regulatory oversight continues to focus on these areas, we cannot ensure compliance at all times with all applicable laws or regulations.
In the event our controls should fail, or we are found to be not in compliance for other reasons, we could be subject to monetary damages, civil and criminal monetary penalties, withdrawal of business licenses or permits, litigation and damage to our reputation and the value of our brand.
24
As we expand our operations in existing and new jurisdictions internationally, we will need to increase the scope of our compliance programs to address the risks relating to the potential for violations of the FCPA and the Bribery Act and other anti-bribery and anti-corruption laws. Further, the promulgation of new laws, rules and regulations, or the new interpretation of existing laws, rules and regulations, in each case that restrict or otherwise unfavorably impact the ability or manner in which we or our retailers and brands conduct business could require us to change certain aspects of our business, operations and commercial relationships to ensure compliance, which could decrease demand for products or services, reduce net revenue, increase costs or subject us to additional liabilities. Anti-corruption and anti-bribery laws have been enforced aggressively in recent years, are interpreted broadly and prohibit companies and their employees and agents from promising, authorizing, making, offering, soliciting or accepting improper payments or other benefits to or from government officials and others in the private sector. As we increase our international sales and business, particularly in countries with a low score on the Corruptions Perceptions Index by Transparency International and increase our use of third-party business partners such as sales agents, distributors, resellers or consultants, our risks under these laws may increase. Under these laws, we could be held liable for the corrupt or other illegal activities of our employees, representatives, contractors, business partners and agents, even if we do not explicitly authorize or have actual knowledge of such activities. Noncompliance with these laws could subject us to investigations, sanctions, settlements, prosecution, other enforcement actions, disgorgement of profits, significant fines, damages, other civil and criminal penalties or injunctions, suspension or debarment from contracting with certain persons, the loss of export privileges, whistle-blower complaints, reputational harm, adverse media coverage and other collateral consequences. If any subpoenas or investigations are launched, or governmental or other sanctions are imposed, or if we do not prevail in any possible civil or criminal litigation, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially harmed. In addition, responding to any action will likely result in a materially significant diversion of management’s attention and resources and significant defense and compliance costs and other professional fees.
In certain cases, enforcement authorities may even require us to appoint an independent compliance monitor, which can result in added costs and administrative burdens. Any investigations, actions, sanctions or other previously mentioned harm could have a material negative effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.
Evenfollowing receipt of any regulatory approval for our pest control products, we will continue to be subject to regulation of our advertisingpractices.
As a seller of pest control products, which include poisonous active ingredients, we are subject to continual government oversight by regulatory authorities. Once we receive regulatory approval in the United States, we will be subject to oversight by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, or EPA, and other regulatory authorities. The EPA strictly regulates the advertising and promotion of pest control products, and these pest control products may only be marketed or promoted for their EPA approved uses, consistent with the product’s approved labeling. Advertising and promotion of any product candidate that obtains approval in the U.S. will be heavily scrutinized by the EPA, other applicable state regulatory agencies and the public. Violations, including promotion of our products for unapproved or off-label uses, are subject to enforcement actions, inquiries and investigations, and civil, criminal and/or administrative sanctions imposed by the EPA.
Ouroperations are subject to environmental laws and regulations that may increase costs of operations and impact or limit our business plans.
We are subject to environmental laws and regulations affecting many aspects of our present and potential future operations, and will be subject to a wide variety of EPA labeling and other state regulatory agency requirements, after we receive regulatory approval in the United States. For example, under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act, we will be required to register with the EPA and certain state regulatory authorities as a seller of disinfectants, and we will be subject to EPA labeling requirements. Compliance with these laws and regulations may result in increased costs and delays as a result of administrative proceedings and certain reporting obligations. Public officials and entities may seek injunctive relief or other remedies to enforce applicable environmental laws and regulations. If we are found to not have complied with these laws and are unable to sell our products, our business and financial results will be negatively impacted.

Risks
Related to our Operations in Israel
Conditionsin Israel, including Israel’s conflicts with Hamas and other parties in the region, as well as political and economic instability,may adversely affect our operations and limit our ability to market our products, which would lead to a decrease in revenues.
Our offices and management team are located in Israel, while our other facilities located overseas and are not exposed to war damage. Accordingly, political, economic, and military conditions in Israel and the surrounding region may directly affect our business and operations. Since the establishment of the State of Israel in 1948, Israel has experienced a number of armed conflicts involving neighboring countries and terrorist organizations active in the region.
In October 2023, Hamas terrorists infiltrated Israel’s southern border from the Gaza Strip and conducted a series of attacks on civilian and military targets. Israel declared war against Hamas and since then, Israel has been involved in military conflicts with Hamas, Hezbollah, a terrorist organization based in Lebanon, and Iran, both directly and through proxies like the Houthi movement in Yemen and armed groups in Iraq and other terrorist organizations. Additionally, following the fall of the Assad regime in Syria, Israel has conducted limited military operations targeting the Syrian army, Iranian military assets and infrastructure linked to Hezbollah and other Iran-supported groups. Each such terrorist group has been sponsored by Iran. Iran itself directly entered the conflict, launching ballistic missile attacks against Israel in April 2024 and October 2024. In June 2025, following intelligence assessments indicating imminent attacks, Israel conducted strikes against Iranian military and nuclear infrastructure together with the United States, which led to Iranian counterattacks before a ceasefire was reached on June 24, 2025, after 12 days of hostilities. On February 28, 2026, Israel and the United States launched a second, larger-scale offensive against Iran. Iran has retaliated with sustained attacks across the Middle East and was joined by renewed Hezbollah attacks on Israel. As of the date of this filing, the conflict is ongoing with no ceasefire in place and the situation remains volatile, with the potential for escalation into a broader regional conflict involving additional terrorist organizations and possibly other countries. Also, the fall of the Assad regime in Syria may create geopolitical instability in the region. As a result of numerous attacks on marine vessels traversing the Red Sea launched by the Houthi movement we have experienced delays in supplier deliveries, extended lead times, and increased cost of freight, increased insurance costs, purchased materials and manufacturing labor costs. We currently do not experience such delays and the cost of freight is nearly back to the prices prior to the attacks in October 2023, but there is no assurance that we will not experience in the future such delays. The risk of ongoing supply disruptions may further result in delayed deliveries of our products.
The continuation of the war has also led to a deterioration of certain indicators of Israel’s economic standing (including as the result of a downgrade in Israel’s credit rating by certain credit rating agencies), which may have a material adverse effect on the Company and its ability to effectively conduct its operations.
The military hostilities have included and may include terror, missile and drone attacks. our offices have not been damaged during the current war, the hostilities with Hamas, Hezbollah, Iran and its proxies and others have caused and may continue to cause damage to private and public facilities, infrastructure, utilities, and telecommunication networks, and potentially disrupting our operations and supply chains. In addition, Israeli organizations, government agencies and companies have been subject to extensive cyber attacks. This could lead to increased costs, risks to employee safety, and challenges to business continuity, with potential financial losses. For example, during 2025, missile and drone attacks attributed to Iran-backed groups, including the Houthi movement in Yemen, struck Israeli territory and civilian areas, disrupting transportation and infrastructure and resulting in injuries.
26
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 such 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.
The global perception of Israel and Israeli companies, influenced by actions by international judicial bodies, may lead to increased sanctions and other negative measures against Israel, as well as Israeli companies and academic institutions. There is also a growing movement among countries, activists, and organizations to boycott Israeli goods, services and academic research or restrict business with Israel, which could affect business operations. If these efforts become widespread, along with any future rulings from international tribunals against Israel, they could significantly and negatively impact business operations.
Prior to the October 2023 war, the Israeli government pursued changes to Israel’s judicial system and has recently renewed its efforts to effect such changes. In response to the foregoing developments, certain individuals, organizations, and institutions, both within and outside of Israel, voiced concerns that such proposed changes, if adopted, may negatively impact the business environment in Israel. Such proposed changes may also lead to political instability or civil unrest. If such changes to Israel’s judicial system are pursued by the government and approved by the parliament, this may have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and ability to raise additional funds, if deemed necessary by our management and board of directors. In addition, Israel is scheduled to hold national elections in 2026, and the election cycle (or the possibility of early elections) may contribute to governmental inconsistency, policy uncertainty and civil unrest, any of which could adversely affect our operations and the Israeli business environment.
Exchangerate fluctuations between foreign currencies and the U.S. Dollar may negatively affect our earnings.
Our reporting and functional currency is the U.S. dollar. Our revenues are currently primarily payable in GBP and we expect our future revenues to be equally divided between GBP and U.S. Dollar. However, most of our expenses are also in U.S. Dollar, NIS and some in Euro. As a result, we are exposed to the currency fluctuation risks relating to the recording of our expenses in U.S. dollars.
Itmay be difficult to enforce a judgment of a U.S. court against us and our executive officers and directors and the Israeli experts namedin this Annual Report in Israel or the United States, to assert U.S. securities laws claims in Israel or to serve process on our executiveofficers and directors and these experts.
We are incorporated in Israel. All of our executive officers and directors reside outside of the United States, and all of our assets and most of the assets of these persons are located outside of the United States. Therefore, a judgment obtained against us, or any of these persons, including a judgment based on the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws, may not be collectible in the United States and may not be enforced by an Israeli court. It also may be difficult for you to effect service of process on these persons in the United States or to assert U.S. securities law claims in original actions instituted in Israel. Additionally, it may be difficult for an investor, or any other person or entity, to initiate an action with respect to U.S. securities laws in Israel. Israeli courts may refuse to hear a claim based on an alleged violation of U.S. securities laws reasoning that Israel is not the most appropriate forum in which to bring such a claim. In addition, even if an Israeli court agrees to hear a claim, it may determine that Israeli law and not U.S. law is applicable to the claim. If U.S. law is found to be applicable, the content of applicable U.S. law must be proven as a fact by expert witnesses, which can be a time consuming and costly process. Certain matters of procedure will also be governed by Israeli law. There is little binding case law in Israel that addresses the matters described above. As a result of the difficulty associated with enforcing a judgment against us in Israel, you may not be able to collect any damages awarded by either a U.S. or foreign court. See “Enforceability of Civil Liabilities” for additional information on your ability to enforce a civil claim against us and our executive officers or directors named in this Annual Report.
27
Yourrights and responsibilities as a shareholder are governed in key respects by Israeli laws, which differ in some material respects fromthe rights and responsibilities of shareholders of U.S. companies.
The rights and responsibilities of the holders of our Ordinary Shares are governed by our amended and restated articles of association and by Israeli law. These rights and responsibilities differ in some material respects from the rights and responsibilities of shareholders in U.S. companies. In particular, a shareholder of an Israeli company has a duty to act in good faith and in a customary manner in exercising its rights and performing its obligations towards the company and other shareholders, and to refrain from abusing its power in such company, including, among other things, in voting at a general meeting of shareholders on matters such as amendments to a company’s articles of association, increases in a company’s authorized share capital, mergers and acquisitions and related party transactions requiring shareholder approval, as well as a general duty to refrain from discriminating against other shareholders. In addition, a controlling shareholder of an Israeli company or a shareholder who is aware that it possesses the power to determine the outcome of a vote at a meeting of the shareholders or to appoint or prevent the appointment of a director or executive officer in the company, or has other powers, has a duty of fairness towards the company. Israeli law does not define the substance of this duty of fairness. There is limited case law available to assist us in understanding the nature of these duties or the implications of these provisions. These provisions may be interpreted to impose additional obligations and liabilities on holders of our Ordinary Shares that are not typically imposed on shareholders of U.S. companies.
Certainprovisions of our amended and restated articles of association may be deemed to have an anti-takeover effect.
Certain provisions of our amended and restated articles of association may make a change in control of us more difficult to effect. Our amended and restated articles of association provide for a staggered board of directors consisting of three classes of directors. Directors of each class are chosen for three-year terms upon the expiration of their current terms and each year one class of our directors will be elected by our shareholders. This classified board provision could have the effect of making the replacement of incumbent directors more time consuming and difficult. At least two annual meetings of shareholders, instead of one, will generally be required to effect a change in a majority of our board of directors. Thus, the classified board provision could increase the likelihood that incumbent directors will retain their positions. The staggered terms of directors may delay, defer or prevent an attempt to change control of us, even though a change in control might be considered by our shareholders to be in their best interest.
Risks Related to Our Status as a Public Company and Ownership of our
Ordinary Shares and Public Warrants
Issuance of a significant amount of additional Ordinary Shares on exerciseor conversion of outstanding Public Warrants and/or substantial future sales of our Ordinary Shares may depress our share price.
The issuance of a significant amount of additional Ordinary Shares on account of outstanding warrants will dilute our current shareholders’ holdings and may depress our share price. If these or other shareholders sell substantial amounts of our Ordinary Shares, including shares issuable upon the exercise or conversion of outstanding warrants or employee options, or if the perception exists that our shareholders may sell a substantial number of our Ordinary Shares, we cannot foresee the impact of any potential sales on the market price of these additional Ordinary Shares, but it is possible that the market price of our Ordinary Shares would be adversely affected. Any substantial sales of our shares in the public market might also make it more difficult for us to sell equity or equity related securities in the future at a time and on terms we deem appropriate. Even if a substantial number of sales do not occur, the mere existence of this “market overhang” could have a negative impact on the market for, and the market price of, our Ordinary Shares.
28
Failureto achieve and maintain effective internal controls in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act could have a material adverseeffect on our business, results of operation or financial condition. In addition, current and potential shareholders could lose confidencein our financial reporting, which could have a material adverse effect on the price of our Ordinary Shares.
Effective internal controls are necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and effectively prevent fraud. We are required to document and test our internal control procedures in order to satisfy the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, which requires annual management assessments of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. In addition, if we fail to maintain the adequacy of our internal control, as such standards are modified, supplemented or amended from time to time, we may not be able to ensure that we can conclude on an ongoing basis that we have effective internal control over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404. Disclosing deficiencies or weaknesses in our internal control, failing to remediate these deficiencies or weaknesses in a timely fashion or failing to achieve and maintain an effective internal control environment may cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, which could have a material adverse effect on the price of our Ordinary Shares. If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, our operating results could be harmed
Future sales of our Ordinary Shares and Public Warrants could reducethe market price of our Ordinary Shares and Warrants.
Substantial sales of our Ordinary Shares and Public Warrants on Nasdaq, may cause the market price of our Ordinary Shares and/or Public Warrants to decline. Sales by us or our security holders of substantial amounts of our Ordinary Shares and/or Public Warrants, or the perception that these sales may occur in the future, could cause a reduction in the market price of our Ordinary Shares and/or Public Warrants.
The issuance of any additional Ordinary Shares or any securities that are exercisable for or convertible into Ordinary Shares, may have an adverse effect on the market price of our Ordinary Shares and will have a dilutive effect on our existing shareholders and holders of Ordinary Shares.
Wecannot assure you that our Ordinary Shares and Warrants will remain listed on Nasdaq or any other securities exchange.
On January 17, 2025, the SEC approved an amendment to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A)(iv), pursuant to which if a company fails to meet the minimum bid price requirement and has effected a reverse share split within the prior one-year period, the company will not be eligible for any compliance period and the Listing Qualifications Department will issue a Delisting Determination under Rule 5810 with respect to that company’s securities. This change applies even if the company was in compliance with the bid price requirement at the time of its prior reverse share split. In addition, if a company’s security fails to meet the bid price requirement and the company has effected one or more reverse stock splits within the prior two-year period with a cumulative ratio of 250 shares or more to one, then the company is not eligible for any compliance period and Nasdaq will issue a Delisting Determination with respect to that security. Accordingly, there is a risk that if, within one year of the February 2026 Reverse Split or any other future reverse share splits effected from time to time, our Ordinary Shares trade below $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive business days, we will not be eligible for any compliance period and the Listing Qualifications Department will issue a Delisting Determination with respect to our Ordinary Shares.
In addition, given that we have effected multiple reverse share splits within the prior two-year period, there is a risk that we may not be eligible for certain compliance periods under Nasdaq rules in the event of future non-compliance with the minimum bid price requirement.
No assurance can be given that we will remain eligible to be listed on Nasdaq. In the event that our Ordinary Shares are delisted from Nasdaq due to our failure to continue to comply with the requirements for continued listing on Nasdaq, and are not eligible for listing on another exchange, trading in our Ordinary Shares and Public Warrants may be conducted in the over-the-counter market or on an electronic bulletin board established for unlisted securities such as the Pink Sheets or the OTC Bulletin Board. In such event, it could become more difficult to dispose of, or obtain accurate price quotations for, our Ordinary Shares and Public Warrants, and it would likely be more difficult to obtain coverage by securities analysts and the news media, which could cause the price of our Ordinary Shares and Public Warrants to decline further. Also, it may be difficult for us to raise additional capital if we are not listed on a national exchange.
29
On January 22, 2026, we received a letter, or the Letter, from the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Department, or the Staff, notifying us that, as of January 21, 2026, for the preceding 30 consecutive business days, our Ordinary Shares did not meet the minimum market value of publicly held shares of $1,000,000, or MVPHS, requirement for continued listing on Nasdaq pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(5), or the Rule. On March 12, 2026, the Staff provided us with a written confirmation of compliance with the Rule, and the matter is now closed.
Should we fail to comply again with the Rule or satisfy other continued listing requirements of Nasdaq, Nasdaq may take steps to delist our Ordinary Shares and Public Warrants. Such a delisting would likely have a negative effect on the price of our Ordinary Shares and Public Warrants and would impair your ability to sell or purchase our Ordinary Shares or Public Warrants when you wish to do so. In the event of a delisting, any action taken by us to restore compliance with listing requirements may not allow our Ordinary Shares and Public Warrants to become listed again, stabilize the market price or improve the liquidity of our securities, prevent our Ordinary Shares from dropping below the Nasdaq minimum share price requirement, or prevent future non-compliance with Nasdaq’s listing requirements.
Asa “foreign private issuer” we are permitted, and intend, to follow certain home country corporate governance practices insteadof otherwise applicable SEC and Nasdaq requirements, which may result in less protection than is accorded to investors under rules applicableto domestic U.S. issuers.
Our status as a foreign private issuer also exempts us from compliance with certain SEC laws and regulations and certain regulations of Nasdaq, including the proxy rules, the short-swing profits recapture rules, and certain governance requirements such as independent director oversight of the nomination of directors and executive compensation. In addition, we will not be required under the Exchange Act to file current reports and financial statements with the SEC as frequently or as promptly as U.S. domestic companies whose securities are registered under the Exchange Act and we will generally be exempt from filing quarterly reports with the SEC. Also, although the Israeli Companies Law, 5759-1999, or the Companies Law, requires us to disclose the annual compensation of our five most highly compensated senior officers on an individual basis (rather than on an aggregate basis), this disclosure will not be as extensive as that required of a U.S. domestic issuer. Furthermore, as a foreign private issuer, we are also not subject to the requirements of Regulation FD (Fair Disclosure) promulgated under the Exchange Act.
These exemptions and leniencies will reduce the frequency and scope of information and protections to which you are entitled as an investor.
The determination of foreign private issuer status is made annually on the last business day of an issuer’s most recently completed second fiscal quarter and, accordingly, the next determination will be made with respect to us on June 30, 2026. In the future, we would lose our foreign private issuer status if a majority of our shareholders, directors or management are U.S. citizens or residents and we fail to meet additional requirements necessary to avoid loss of foreign private issuer status. The regulatory and compliance costs to us under U.S. securities laws as a U.S. domestic registrant may be significantly higher.
Theestimates of market opportunity, market size and forecasts of market growth included in this Annual Report and our other publicly fileddocuments may prove to be inaccurate, and even if the market in which we compete achieves the forecasted growth, our business could failto grow at similar rates, if at all.
Market opportunity, size estimates and growth forecasts included in this Annual Report and our other publicly filed documents are subject to significant uncertainty and are based on assumptions and estimates that may not prove to be accurate. For example, several of the reports and data on which our estimates and forecasts are based rely on projections of consumer adoption and incorporate data from secondary sources, such as company websites as well as industry, trade and government publications.
Net revenue and operating results are difficult to forecast because they generally depend on the volume, timing and type of orders we receive, all of which are uncertain. We base our expense levels and investment plans on our estimates of total net revenue and gross margins using human judgment and utilizing internal analytic methodologies to assess market trends. We cannot be sure the same growth rates, trends and other key performance metrics are meaningful predictors of future growth. If our assumptions and calculations prove to be wrong, we may spend more than we anticipate acquiring and retaining customers or may generate less net revenue per active customer than anticipated, any of which could have a negative impact on our business and results of operations.
30
In addition, as we enter new consumer product markets in the future, we may initially provide discounts to customers to gain market traction, and the amount and effect of these discounts may vary greatly. No such discounts have been given to date.
Finally, we are evaluating our total addressable market with respect to new product offerings and new markets. These estimates of total addressable market and growth forecasts are subject to significant uncertainty, are based on assumptions and estimates that may not prove to be accurate and are based on data published by third parties that we have not independently verified. Even if the market in which we compete meets the size estimates and growth forecasted in this Annual Report, our business could fail to grow at similar rates, if at all.
Our business is also affected by general economic and business conditions in international markets.
In addition, we experience seasonal trends in our business, and our mix of product offerings is highly variable from day-to-day and quarter-to-quarter. This variability makes it difficult to predict sales and could result in significant fluctuations in our net revenue from period-to-period. A significant portion of our expenses is fixed, and as a result, we may be unable to adjust our spending in a timely manner to compensate for any unexpected shortfall in net revenue. Any failure to accurately predict net revenue or gross margins could cause our operating results to be lower than expected, which could materially adversely affect our financial condition and share price.
Weare an emerging growth company and any decision on our part to comply only with certain reduced reporting and disclosure requirementsapplicable to emerging growth companies could make our Ordinary Shares and Warrants less attractive to investors.
We are an emerging growth company and, for as long as we continue to be an emerging growth company, we may choose to take advantage of exemptions from various reporting requirements applicable to other public companies but not to “emerging growth companies,” including:
| ● | not<br> being required to have our independent registered public accounting firm audit our internal control over financial reporting under<br> Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act; |
|---|---|
| ● | permission<br> to delay adopting new or revised accounting standards until such time as those standards apply to private companies; and |
| --- | --- |
| ● | exemptions<br> from the requirements of holding non-binding advisory votes on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute<br> payments not previously approved. |
| --- | --- |
We may take advantage some or all of these and other exemptions until we are no longer an “emerging growth company”. We could be an emerging growth company up to the end of the fiscal year in which the fifth anniversary of the completion of our IPO, or 2027. Our status as an emerging growth company will end as soon as any of the following take place:
| ● | the<br> last day of the fiscal year in which we have more than $1.235 billion in annual revenue; |
|---|---|
| ● | the<br> date we qualify as a “large accelerated filer,” with at least $700 million of equity securities held by non-affiliates; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | the<br> date on which we have issued, in any three-year period, more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt securities; or |
| --- | --- |
| ● | the<br> last day of the fiscal year ending after the fifth anniversary after we become a public company. |
| --- | --- |
31
We cannot predict if investors will find our Ordinary Shares or Public Warrants less attractive if we choose to rely on any of the exemptions afforded emerging growth companies. If some investors find our Ordinary Shares or Public Warrants less attractive because we rely on any of these exemptions, there may be a less active trading market for our Ordinary Shares and/or Public Warrants and the market price of our Ordinary Shares and/or Public Warrants may be more volatile.
In addition, under the JOBS Act, “emerging growth companies” can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards until such time as those standards apply to private companies. We have elected to avail ourselves of this exemption and, as a result, our financial statements may not be comparable to the financial statements of issuers who are required to comply with the effective dates for new or revised accounting standards that are applicable to public companies. Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that we can elect to opt out of the extended transition period at any time, which election is irrevocable.
Even after we no longer qualify as an emerging growth company, we may qualify as a “smaller reporting company”, which would allow us to take advantage of many of the same exemptions from disclosure requirements (excluding the exemption from compliance with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act) and reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements. However, as a foreign private issuer we are not eligible to use the requirements for smaller reporting companies unless we use the forms and rules designated for domestic issuers and provide financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. We cannot predict if investors will find our Ordinary Shares and/or Public Warrants less attractive because we may rely on either of these exemptions. If some investors find our Ordinary Shares and/or Public Warrants less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our Ordinary Shares and/or Public Warrants and our share price may be more volatile.
The market price of our Ordinary Shares and/or Public Warrants maybe volatile. Market volatility may affect the value of an investment in our Ordinary Shares and/or Public Warrants and could subject usto litigation.
The market price of our securities is volatile. The price of our securities is and will continue to be subject to wide fluctuations in response to a variety of factors, including the following:
| ● | actual<br> or anticipated fluctuations in our financial condition and operating results; |
|---|---|
| ● | the<br> financial projections we may provide to the public, and any changes in projected operational and financial results; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | addition<br> or loss of significant customers; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | changes<br> in laws or regulations applicable to our products; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | actual<br> or anticipated changes in our growth rate relative to our competitors; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | announcements<br> of technological innovations or new offerings by us or our competitors; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | announcements<br> by us or our competitors of significant acquisitions, strategic partnerships, joint ventures or capital-raising activities or commitments; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | additions<br> or departures of key personnel; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | changes<br> in our financial guidance or securities analysts’ estimates of our financial performance; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | discussion<br> of us or our share price by the financial press and in online investor communities; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | reaction<br> to our press releases and filings with the SEC; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | changes<br> in accounting principles; |
| --- | --- |
32
| ● | lawsuits<br> threatened or filed against us; |
|---|---|
| ● | fluctuations<br> in operating performance and the valuation of companies perceived by investors to be comparable to us; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | sales<br> of our Ordinary Shares by us or our shareholders; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | share<br> price and volume fluctuations attributable to inconsistent trading volume levels of our Ordinary Shares; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | price<br> and volume fluctuations in the overall stock market, including as a result of trends in the economy as a whole; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | changes<br> in laws or regulations applicable to our business; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | changes<br> in our capital structure, such as future issuances of debt or equity securities; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | short<br> sales, hedging and other derivative transactions involving our shares; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | the<br> expiration of contractual lock-up periods; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | other<br> events or factors, including those resulting from war, incidents of terrorism or responses to these events; and |
| --- | --- |
| ● | general<br> economic and market conditions. |
| --- | --- |
Furthermore, in recent years, the stock markets have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have affected and continue to affect the market prices of equity securities of many companies, and technology companies in particular. These fluctuations often have been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of those companies. These broad market and industry fluctuations, as well as general economic, political and market conditions such as recessions, interest rate changes or international currency fluctuations, may negatively impact the market price of our Ordinary Shares or Public Warrants.
In the past, companies that have experienced volatility in the market price of their stock have been subject to securities class action litigation. We may be the target of this type of litigation in the future. Securities litigation against us could result in substantial costs and divert our management’s attention from other business concerns, which could also harm our business.
Ourinvestors’ ownership in the Company may be diluted in the future.
In the future, we may issue additional authorized but previously unissued equity securities, resulting in the dilution of ownership interests of our present shareholders. Furthermore, we may issue equity awards to management, employees and other eligible persons in the future under our 2024 Incentive Option Plan, or our 2024 Incentive Plan. Additional Ordinary Shares issued by us in the future will dilute an investor’s investment in the Company. In addition, we may seek shareholder approval to increase the amount of the Company’s authorized shares, which would create the potential for further dilution of current investors.
33
Ouramended and restated articles of association provide that, unless we consent to an alternative forum, the federal district courts ofthe United States shall be the exclusive forum for resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the SecuritiesAct of 1933 as amended, or the Securities Act, which could limit our shareholders’ ability to choose the judicial forum for disputeswith us, our directors, shareholders, or other employees. In addition, the agreements governing the Warrants provide that disputes shallbe brought in the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York, Borough of Manhattan, and that a claim under the U.S. federalsecurities laws may be made in any federal district court.
Section 22 of the Securities Act creates concurrent jurisdiction for U.S. federal and state courts over all such Securities Act actions. Accordingly, both U.S. state and federal courts have jurisdiction to entertain such claims. To prevent having to litigate claims in multiple jurisdictions and the threat of inconsistent or contrary rulings by different courts, among other considerations, our articles of association provide that, unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the federal district courts of the United States shall be the exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act. This exclusive forum provision will not apply to suits brought to enforce any liability or duty created by the Exchange Act, and our shareholders cannot and will not be deemed to have waived our compliance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder as a result of our exclusive forum provision. Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in any of our securities shall be deemed to have notice of and consented to the foregoing provision of our articles of association.
Similarly, the agreements governing the Warrants provide that, and by purchasing Warrants in our IPO, investors agreed that, all legal proceedings concerning the interpretations, enforcement and defense of the transactions contemplated by this Warrant (whether brought against a party hereto or their respective affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, partners, members, employees or agents) shall be commenced exclusively in the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York, irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York, Borough of Manhattan for the adjudication of any such dispute and irrevocably waive, and agree not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is improper or is an inconvenient venue for such proceeding. The warrant agent agreement has similar provisions with respect to the Company and the warrant agent. The agreement governing the Warrants and the warrant agent agreement provide that the foregoing provisions do not limit or restrict the federal district court in which a party may bring a claim under the U.S. federal securities laws.
However, the enforceability of similar forum provisions (including exclusive federal forum provisions for actions, suits, or proceedings asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act) in other companies’ organizational documents and similar agreements has been challenged in legal proceedings, and there is uncertainty as to whether courts would enforce the exclusive forum provision in our articles of association or the agreements governing the Warrants. If a court were to find the exclusive forum provision contained in our articles of association or the agreements governing the Warrants to be inapplicable or unenforceable in an action, we may incur additional costs associated with resolving such action in other jurisdictions, which could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
Although we believe the exclusive forum provision benefit us by providing increased consistency in the application of U.S. federal securities laws, the Companies Law, or New York law, as applicable, in the types of lawsuits to which they apply, such exclusive forum provision may limit a shareholder’s ability to bring a claim in the judicial forum of their choosing for disputes with us or any of our directors, shareholders, officers, or other employees, which may discourage lawsuits with respect to such claims against us and our current and former directors, shareholders, officers, or other employees.
If securities or industry analysts either do not publish research aboutus or publish inaccurate or unfavorable research about us, our business or our market, or if they change their recommendations regardingour Ordinary Shares or Public Warrants adversely, the trading price or trading volume of our Ordinary Shares could decline.
The trading market for our Ordinary Shares and Public Warrants will be influenced in part by the research and reports that securities or industry analysts may or may not publish about us, our business, our market or our competitors. If one or more of the analysts do not publish research about us or initiate research with an unfavorable rating or downgrade our Ordinary Shares, provide a more favorable recommendation about our competitors or publish inaccurate or unfavorable research about our business, the market prices of our Ordinary Shares would likely decline. If any analyst who may cover us were to cease coverage of us or fail to regularly publish reports on us, we could lose visibility in the financial markets, which in turn could cause the trading price or trading volume of our Ordinary Shares to decline.
34
FINRAsales practice requirements may limit a shareholder’s ability to buy and sell our Ordinary Shares.
The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc., or FINRA, has adopted rules requiring that, in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to recommending speculative or low-priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer’s financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA has indicated its belief that there is a high probability that speculative or low-priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. If these FINRA requirements are applicable to us or our securities, they may make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that at least some of their customers buy our Ordinary Shares, which may limit the ability of our shareholders to buy and sell our Ordinary Shares and could have an adverse effect on the market for and price of our Ordinary Shares.
Wemay become a “passive foreign investment company”, or PFIC, for U.S. federal income tax purposes in the current taxable yearor may become one in any subsequent taxable year. There generally would be negative tax consequences for U.S. taxpayers that are holdersof the Ordinary Shares if we are or were to become a PFIC.
Based on the projected composition of our income and valuation of our assets, we do not expect to be a PFIC for 2025, and we do not expect to become a PFIC in the future, although there can be no assurance in this regard. The determination of whether we are a PFIC is made on an annual basis and will depend on the composition of our income and assets from time to time. We will be treated as a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes in any taxable year in which either (1) at least 75% of our gross income is “passive income” or (2) on average at least 50% of our assets by value produce passive income or are held for the production of passive income. Passive income for this purpose generally includes, among other things, certain dividends, interest, royalties, rents and gains from commodities and securities transactions and from the sale or exchange of property that gives rise to passive income. Passive income also includes amounts derived by reason of the temporary investment of funds, including those raised in a public offering. In determining whether a non-U.S. corporation is a PFIC, a proportionate share of the income and assets of each corporation in which it owns, directly or indirectly, at least a 25% interest (by value) is taken into account. The tests for determining PFIC status are applied annually, and it is difficult to make accurate projections of future income and assets which are relevant to this determination. In addition, our PFIC status may depend in part on the market value of the Ordinary Shares. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that we currently are not or will not become a PFIC in the future. If we are a PFIC in any taxable year during which a U.S. taxpayer holds the Ordinary Shares, such U.S. taxpayer would be subject to certain adverse U.S. federal income tax rules. In particular, if the U.S. taxpayer did not make an election to treat us as a “qualified electing fund”, or QEF, or make a “mark-to-market” election, then “excess distributions” to the U.S. taxpayer, and any gain realized on the sale or other disposition of the Ordinary Shares by the U.S. taxpayer: (1) would be allocated ratably over the U.S. taxpayer’s holding period for the Ordinary Shares; (2) the amount allocated to the current taxable year and any period prior to the first day of the first taxable year in which we were a PFIC would be taxed as ordinary income; and (3) the amount allocated to each of the other taxable years would be subject to tax at the highest rate of tax in effect for the applicable class of taxpayer for that year, and an interest charge for the deemed deferral benefit would be imposed with respect to the resulting tax attributable to each such other taxable year. In addition, if the U.S. Internal Revenue Service, or the IRS, determines that we are a PFIC for a year with respect to which we have determined that we were not a PFIC, it may be too late for a U.S. taxpayer to make a timely QEF or mark-to-market election. U.S. taxpayers that have held the Ordinary Shares during a period when we were a PFIC will be subject to the foregoing rules, even if we cease to be a PFIC in subsequent years, subject to exceptions for U.S. taxpayer who made a timely QEF or mark-to-market election. A U.S. taxpayer can make a QEF election by completing the relevant portions of and filing IRS Form 8621 in accordance with the instructions thereto. We do not intend to notify U.S. taxpayers that hold the Ordinary Shares if we believe we will be treated as a PFIC for any taxable year in order to enable U.S. taxpayers to consider whether to make a QEF election. In addition, we do not intend to furnish such U.S. taxpayers annually with information needed in order to complete IRS Form 8621 and to make and maintain a valid QEF election for any year in which we or any of our subsidiaries are a PFIC. U.S. taxpayers that hold the Ordinary Shares are strongly urged to consult their tax advisors about the PFIC rules, including tax return filing requirements and the eligibility, manner, and consequences to them of making a QEF or mark-to-market election with respect to the Ordinary Shares in the event that we are a PFIC. See “Taxation - U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations - Passive Foreign Investment Companies” for additional information.

Asa public company in the United States, our management is required to devote substantial time to new compliance initiatives as well ascompliance with ongoing U.S. requirements.
As a public company in the United States, we incur additional significant accounting, legal and other expenses that we did not incur before the offering. We also incurred costs associated with corporate governance requirements of the SEC, as well as requirements under Section 404 and other provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. These rules and regulations increased our legal and financial compliance costs, introduced new costs such as investor relations, stock exchange listing fees and shareholder reporting, and made some activities more time consuming and costly. The implementation and testing of such processes and systems required us to hire outside consultants and incur other significant costs. Any future changes in the laws and regulations affecting public companies in the United States, including Section 404 and other provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, and the rules and regulations adopted by the SEC, for so long as they apply to us, will result in increased costs to us as we respond to such changes. These laws, rules and regulations could make it more difficult or more costly for us to obtain certain types of insurance, including director and officer liability insurance, and we may be forced to accept reduced policy limits and coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain the same or similar coverage. The impact of these requirements could also make it more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified persons to serve on our board of directors, our board committees, or as executive officers.
Wemay be subject to securities litigation, which is expensive and could divert management attention.
In the past, companies that have experienced volatility in the market price of their stock have been subject to securities class action litigation. We may be the target of this type of litigation in the future. Litigation of this type could result in substantial costs and diversion of management’s attention and resources, which could seriously hurt our business. Any adverse determination in litigation could also subject us to significant liabilities.
General
Risk Factors
Ifwe engage in future acquisitions or strategic partnerships, this may increase our capital requirements, dilute our shareholders, causeus to incur debt or assume contingent liabilities, and subject us to other risks.
We have engaged in various acquisitions and may continue to evaluate various acquisition opportunities and strategic partnerships, including licensing or acquiring complementary products, intellectual property rights, technologies or businesses. Any potential acquisition or strategic partnership may entail numerous risks, including:
| ● | increased<br> operating expenses and cash requirements; |
|---|---|
| ● | the<br> assumption of additional indebtedness or contingent liabilities; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | the<br> issuance of our equity securities; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | assimilation<br> of operations, intellectual property and products of an acquired company, including difficulties associated with integrating new<br> personnel; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | the<br> diversion of our management’s attention from our existing product programs and initiatives in pursuing such a strategic merger<br> or acquisition; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | retention<br> of key employees, the loss of key personnel and uncertainties in our ability to maintain key business relationships; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | risks<br> and uncertainties associated with the other party to such a transaction, including the prospects of that party and their existing<br> products or product candidates and marketing approvals; and |
| --- | --- |
| ● | our<br> inability to generate revenue from acquired technology and/or products sufficient to meet our objectives in undertaking the acquisition<br> or even to offset the associated acquisition and maintenance costs. |
| --- | --- |
36
Weare subject to certain U.S. and foreign anticorruption, anti-money laundering, export control, sanctions and other trade laws and regulations.We can face serious consequences for violations.
Among other matters, U.S. and foreign anticorruption, anti-money laundering, export control, sanctions and other trade laws and regulations, which are collectively referred to as Trade Laws, prohibit companies and their employees, agents, legal counsel, accountants, consultants, contractors and other partners from authorizing, promising, offering, providing, soliciting or receiving, directly or indirectly, corrupt or improper payments or anything else of value to or from recipients in the public or private sector. Violations of Trade Laws can result in substantial criminal fines and civil penalties, imprisonment, the loss of trade privileges, debarment, tax reassessments, breach of contract and fraud litigation, reputational harm, and other consequences. We have direct or indirect interactions with officials and employees of government agencies or government-affiliated hospitals, universities and other organizations. We also expect our non-U.S. activities to increase over time. We can be held liable for the corrupt or other illegal activities of our personnel, agents or partners, even if we do not explicitly authorize or have prior knowledge of such activities.
Ourbusiness and operations might be adversely affected by security breaches, including any cybersecurity incidents.
We depend on the efficient and uninterrupted operation of our computer and communications systems, and those of our consultants, contractors and vendors, which we use for, among other things, sensitive company data, including our intellectual property, financial data and other proprietary business information.
While certain of our operations have business continuity and disaster recovery plans and other security measures intended to prevent and minimize the impact of IT-related interruptions, our IT infrastructure and the IT infrastructure of our consultants, contractors and vendors are vulnerable to damage from cyberattacks, computer viruses, unauthorized access, electrical failures and natural disasters or other catastrophic events. We could experience failures in our information systems and computer servers, which could result in an interruption of our normal business operations and require substantial expenditure of financial and administrative resources to remedy. System failures, accidents or security breaches can cause interruptions in our operations. To the extent that any disruption or security breach were to result in a loss of, or damage to, our data or applications, or inappropriate disclosure of confidential or proprietary information, we could incur regulatory investigations and redresses.
Even though we believe we carry commercially reasonable business interruption and liability insurance, we might suffer losses as a result of business interruptions that exceed the coverage available under our insurance policies or for which we do not have coverage. For example, we are not insured against terrorist attacks or cyberattacks. Any natural disaster or catastrophic event could have a significant negative impact on our operations and financial results.
Salesof a significant number of our Ordinary Shares in the public markets or significant short sales of our Ordinary Shares, or the perceptionthat such sales could occur, could depress the market price of our Ordinary Shares and impair our ability to raise capital.
Sales of a substantial number of our Ordinary Shares or other equity-related securities in the public markets, could depress the market price of our Ordinary Shares. If there are significant short sales of our Ordinary Shares, the price decline that could result from this activity may cause the share price to decline more so, which, in turn, may cause long holders of the Ordinary Shares to sell their shares, thereby contributing to sales of Ordinary Shares in the market. Such sales also may impair our ability to raise capital through the sale of additional equity securities in the future at a time and price that our management deems acceptable, if at all.

B.Business Overview
We are a data driven e-commerce company operating primarily on Amazon and we have recently begun expanding into the global HLS sector through AI driven solutions. We were incorporated in Israel in March 2021, under the name Nexera Technologies Ltd to provide various services, such as management, operation and logistics, marketing and financial services to our subsidiaries that operate online stores for the sale of various consumer products on Amazon, utilizing the FBA model. As of the date of this Annual Report, we have seven wholly or majority owned subsidiaries, held directly by us or through our subsidiaries: Fort Technology, Smart Repair Pro, Top Rank Ltd., Fort, KeepZone, Fort Products LLC and Pure Logistics. We also hold, through our subsidiary, KeepZone, a minority interest in SciSparc Nutraceuticals to whom we provide a variety of professional and business support services.
In addition to executing the FBA business model, we utilize internal methodologies to analyze sales data and patterns on Amazon in order to identify existing stores, niches and products that have the potential for development and growth, and to maximize sales of existing proprietary products. We also use our own skills, know-how and profound familiarity with Amazon’s algorithm and all the tools that the FBA platform FBA has to offer. In some circumstances we scale the products and improve them. As a supplement to our e-commerce operations, Pure Logistics operates a strategically located logistics center in New Jersey, which we anticipate will strengthen our supply chain and third-party service offerings. We also aim to deliver comprehensive, multi-layered security ecosystems for critical infrastructure worldwide, capitalizing on the HLS market’s significant growth potential while leveraging our expertise in data-driven operations.

HomelandSecurity Sector
KeepZone is focused on expanding its presence in the HLS and critical infrastructure protection markets through the integration of multiple advanced security technologies, including technologies that incorporate artificial intelligence. KeepZone seeks to support government, defense, and infrastructure customers in deploying multi-layered security architectures intended to detect, prevent, and respond to threats across land, air, sea, cyber, and electromagnetic domains. KeepZone’s approach includes integrating third-party technologies from various providers, with the objective of offering a scalable portfolio of security solutions for the protection of people, infrastructure, and national assets.
KeepZone’s business model is to facilitate the adoption of HLS technologies by acting as an integrator, distributor, and market channel for defense and security solutions, including through strategic partnerships with technology developers.
Scanary
KeepZone first entered into the HLS sector on December 4, 2025, by entering into the Scanary Agreement, with Scanary, an Israeli deep-tech developer of 3D imaging, electromagnetic, and AI-powered threat detection systems. Pursuant to the Scanary Agreement, Scanary granted KeepZone exclusive distribution rights to Scanary’s electromagnetic imaging and AI HLS screening systems in Canada, Germany and the United Arab Emirates, and non-exclusive distribution rights in Spain and Italy, or collectively the Territories. Prior to the entry into the Scanary Agreement, KeepZone operated as a holding company and did not have any operations.
In consideration for the exclusive distribution rights, KeepZone agreed to pay Scanary total consideration of $1 million, payable in five equal monthly installments of $200,000, with each installment due at the end of each calendar month following the date of the Scanary Agreement. Pursuant to the Scanary Agreement, Scanary will pay KeepZone an Exclusivity Payment (as defined in the Scanary Agreement) through periodic payments equal to 10% of Scanary’s gross sales revenues received and collected, less (i) direct costs of goods sold, (ii) shipping and logistics costs, (iii) sales commissions, (iv) applicable taxes and duties, and (v) any other direct costs reasonably attributable to such sales. As of the date of this Annual Report, we paid a total consideration of $600,000 to Scanary.
Under the Scanary Agreement, Scanary may, from time to time and at its discretion, identify sales opportunities outside the Territories. If Scanary elects to refer such an opportunity to KeepZone, KeepZone will have a right of first refusal to pursue the opportunity. KeepZone must notify Scanary within a reasonable period whether it chooses to pursue the opportunity. Any such opportunity will be subject to mutual agreement between the parties regarding the applicable commercial terms, pricing, responsibilities, and other relevant conditions, to be determined on a case-by-case basis. On February 12, 2026, we announced that KeepZone expanded the Scanary Agreement to include an additional territory in Asia.
40
The Scanary Agreement provides for an initial term of twenty-four (24) months and will automatically renew for an additional twenty-four (24) months if KeepZone achieves a cumulative purchase target of 20 systems during the initial term, and may thereafter be further renewed upon satisfying the performance requirements specified in the Scanary Agreement.

IndustryOverview and Market Opportunity
E-commerce
The global retail e-commerce market is expected to continue growing. According to analysis published by Statista, the global retail e-commerce market is estimated to reach $8.034 trillion in 2027. Revenues are expected to grow from 2023 to 2027 by 39%. According to this analysis, e-commerce continues to attract new consumers. Convenience is the key driver for shoppers around the world to order online, rather than visit a brick-and-mortar store. The global e-commerce growth forecast has two underlying developments. Most global markets are still in the process of increasing internet penetration and digitalization, meaning that the infrastructure required for e-commerce to flourish is still being built. At the same time, the most-developed e-commerce markets are currently profiting from the benefits of AI. New technologies and automation are making the customer journey and order fulfillment process more efficient, turning online retail into a well-oiled machine.
According to IMARC research report, the market is primarily driven by the rising internet penetration. Additionally, the adoption of smartphones and the Internet made it suitable for consumers to shop online, thus influencing the market growth. Moreover, mobile applications and user-friendly websites made the shopping experience seamless and accessible, allowing customers to browse, compare prices, and easily make purchases, thus representing another major growth-inducing factor.
Also, the COVID-19 pandemic accelerated the shift toward online shopping, accelerating the sales demand
We believe, this new normal created a huge opportunity for e-commerce players, such as Jeffs’ Brands, which has the capability to respond to the current demand and market trends.
Moreover, Amazon, which is the primary platform that our business is based on, continues to rise and grow. In 2025, Amazon’s global sales were $716.92 billion, a 12.3% increase year over year. Amazon’s sales, however, are not necessarily indicative of our current or future sales, as Amazon sells vast and varied quantities of products on its platforms, whereas we sell only a limited quantity of products on Amazon and are not otherwise affiliated with Amazon. While our sales represent a small fraction of the sales on Amazon, we believe that Amazon provides us with a unique opportunity to grow our sales.
43
According to Statista, most of Amazon’s revenue is generated through e-retail sales of different categories of products, followed by third-party seller revenues, retail and media subscriptions, and AWS cloud services. Amazon serves as a global platform for third-party sellers (3P), which are independent sellers using Amazon as an e-commerce site to offer their products. 3P sales account for roughly 60% of the total paid units on Amazon. Amazon also provides sellers with end-to-end logistics services. The FBA option includes order picking, packing, shipping, and handling and it is now used to distribute about half of the units sold on Amazon.
We believe that doing business in the online consumer product market requires a profound understating of material trends and factors impacting the market and this can only be done by analyzing massive amounts of data. Adopting new business models that are using high-end technologies for data analysis is considered by us as the only competitive way to succeed in this market. We see our data driven approach combined with our other capabilities and advantages as our strengths in succeeding in this market.
While online shoppers differ greatly depending on their respective regions around the world, there are general indicators that help with understanding basic digital consumer behavior. Leading marketplaces serve as a source of inspiration and the primary place to search for products online before the actual purchase.
Moreover, we are constantly rethinking our efficiency, logistics and fulfillment networks including investments in warehouses and delivery infrastructure.
Amazon’salgorithm is a crucial factor in the success of CPG companies, and we believe we have a profound understating of it
According to BCG, top-selling brands on Amazon, often differ significantly from top sellers in brick-and-mortar stores. We believe this highlights how distinct Amazon’s market is and how critical it is for CPG companies to understand how Amazon algorithms drive traffic.
We believe our way of analyzing and understanding the consumer trends, searches and preferences enable us to react in the most optimum way. We ensure the availability of the most desired products on the market and we leverage it from buying to selling the product. We are able to do that by analyzing the data and to react to the insights we generate of it in the fastest way possible to us.
Ourunique process
We believe in a 3-phase process of our business lifecycle:
| Phase<br> I: Search and Identification | Our<br> sophisticated, know-how use of an advanced software, enables us to search and identify high value products. This analysis includes<br> product history, client trends, etc. |
|---|---|
| Phase<br> II: Acquisition of identified products | We<br> then quickly and efficiently acquire identified products using our strong logistical capacities. |
| Phase<br> III: Sell and Ship | We<br> then sell the most desired products to our consumers, maximizing our positioning for high profitability (with minimal marketing required,<br> offering the optimum price being both lucrative and competitive). |
44
Below are recent examples of products that were identified by our process and offered to consumers, which contributed to our increase in sales year over year:
| Product Name and Description | Illustration |
|---|---|
| The<br> Whoobli Store offers the Whoobli punching bag, adjustable stand and boxing gloves for children aged 3-8 years old. | ![]() |
| The<br> KnifePlanet Store offers a complete premium stone knife-sharpening set, which includes flattening stone, bamboo base, and two nonslip<br> rubber bases. | |

| The<br> CC-Exquisite Store offers CC-exquisite professional steel-tip darts sets. | |
| The<br> PetEvo Store offers car door protectors in sets of two that fit any vehicle and protects from pet scratches and is also waterproof. |
HomelandSecurity
The global HLS market pertains to the safeguarding of nations, cities, and communities against a broad spectrum of threats and hazards, including, without limitation, terrorism, organized crime, cross-border threats, cyber-physical attacks, and the disruption of essential services. HLS expenditures are principally driven by the imperative to protect population centers, critical infrastructure (including energy, water, transportation, communications, and government facilities), and strategic borders and gateways (including airports, ports, and land crossings). These missions generally necessitate large-scale, multi-agency coordination and long-duration programs that integrate prevention, detection, response, and resilience capabilities.
Independent market research firms estimate the global HLS market to be in the hundreds of billions of dollars annually, with mid-single-digit growth expected through the decade. According to a report published by Grand View Research, the global HLS market’s estimated value in 2022 was approximately $556.4 billion and is projected to grow to approximately $868.7 billion by 2030 (representing a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately 5.8%).
45
Governments and operators of critical assets face increasing pressure to ensure the continuity of essential services and to maintain public confidence amid an increasingly complex and evolving risk environment. Demand for HLS solutions is often driven by a combination of factors, including the protection of cities and public venues, border and gateway security, critical infrastructure resilience, and the increasing convergence of cyber and physical threats. Collectively, these drivers support recurring investment in capabilities such as situational awareness, surveillance, screening, identity and access management, command-and-control, and emergency response coordination.
The HLS market is increasingly transitioning from stand-alone point solutions toward integrated, interoperable platforms capable of supporting multi-agency operations. Buyers increasingly prioritize systems that: (i) integrate with existing legacy systems, (ii) enable real-time information sharing, (iii) support scalable deployments, and (iv) deliver demonstrable and measurable operational outcomes (e.g., reduced response time, improved detection rates, and lower total cost of ownership).
Strategy
GrowthStrategy
The key elements of our growth strategy include:
| ● | High-end<br> search and identification of high value products and expansion into new markets and territories; |

HomelandSecurity
The HLS market is a highly competitive environment, comprising of many commercial actors, including integrators, prime contractors, and technology developers. Among these, our competition includes the MER Group and Rayzone Group. KeepZone operates as an AI-driven integrator and distributor, focusing on delivering tailored, multi-vendor solutions by leveraging system integration, AI data, and flexibility. This approach allows us to bridge the gap between technology providers and large-scale project execution, offering agility, customization, and multi-vendor flexibility as key competitive advantages.
While the MER Group represents a traditional prime contractor model executing end-to-end national-scale projects, and Rayzone Group specializes in advanced cyber intelligence technology, KeepZone distinguishes itself as a flexible, technology-driven integrator. We combine best-in-class solutions and deliver them efficiently to customers, offering a differentiated alternative to both large contractors and pure technology vendors. However, our business model entails risks such as dependence on suppliers and limited proprietary intellectual property, with medium control over the value chain primarily through integration and customer interface.
47
Development
E-commerce
After executing our procurement process and owning new products and brands, we then invest in additional development of the procured products. Our development is focused on upgrading the existing products and/or adding additional value and features to them, such as additional colors or shapes, new design or version. Our developments remain within the product history ranking and overviews on Amazon, hence, the upgraded products are being promoted under the same brand and its positioning on Amazon.
HomelandSecurity
KeepZone does not develop or manufacture any products of its own, rather it integrates complementary technologies from its strategic partners and tailors such technologies to the specific operational requirements of each client. KeepZone’s technology strategy is based on a layered defense approach that integrates multiple security domains into a unified operational framework. These layers include perimeter detection, AI-based screening technologies, autonomous monitoring and command centers, aerial intelligence platforms, radio frequency spectrum monitoring, maritime and underwater surveillance, and cybersecurity protection.
Third-PartyManufacturing and Logistics
E-commerce
Our products are currently produced by third party manufacturers in China and the United Kingdom pursuant to manufacturing agreements. These agreements generally provide that the manufacturers will manufacture and deliver to us the relevant products in accordance with our orders and subject to our timely payment. The manufacturing services under such contracts are on a non-exclusive basis, provided, however, that the manufacturers are not allowed to manufacture or supply the manufactured product to any third party. The products manufactured thereby are subject to our successful completion of testing and assembly checks before shipment. We may terminate these contracts at any time with an advance notice. We have strong and long-term relationships with these manufacturers and we believe we have a safe and stable supply chain.
As of the date of this Annual Report, we use third party warehouses to fulfill direct-to-consumer orders, through agreements or terms of services.
As of the date of this Annual Report, we have warehousing and distribution agreements with three warehouses in the United States, one in Canada, two in the United Kingdom and one in Germany, which generally provide that the service provider will provide warehousing services at its warehousing facility and distribution services for our products. Through these third parties, we believe we can deliver products within two days of the order being placed on Amazon through ground shipment across approximately 95% of the U.S. market.

Marketing,Distribution Methods and Sales
E-commerce
We believe our marketing expenses are lower and more efficient than our competitors since we are only engaged with well established brands that are already familiar to many of our customers and potential customers on Amazon. In addition, we expect to hire managers to handle our digital marketing and advertising efforts.
With respect to distribution, we see logistics as primary consideration and we prioritize creating an effective and efficient distribution channel. Every product opportunity that we encounter is handled with strong and efficient logistical tools and no opportunity will be left out due to lack of logistical capabilities or low profitability. Furthermore, we plan to own warehouses in the future in lieu of relying on Amazon or other third-party warehouses, which would improve our distribution channel.
Our sales phase, as further described above, is the third phase after a deep analysis is conducted by our software, identification and procurement process. Using the most advanced software provides us with all the data needed to launch and to operate our Amazon brands at the highest levels. We believe that this knowledge will bring significant competitive advantages for our products. Our spending and approach on advertising is aimed at being as low as possible given the resources we spent prior to the actual sale on selecting the different products depending on the life cycle of products on our platform.
We also use promotions to drive sales. From time to time, mainly when launching a new product, we use promotional pricing and marketing programs, including limited-duration seasonal promotions conducted through third-party e-commerce platforms such as Amazon, to increase product visibility, stimulate customer demand and manage inventory levels. These promotions may include pay-per-click (PPC), temporary price reductions, participation in platform-sponsored promotional events, and targeted marketing campaigns.
49
We evaluate the use of promotional pricing on a periodic basis and seek to balance the benefits of increased sales volume and market penetration against the potential impact on profitability. There can be no assurance that these promotional activities will result in sustained increases in demand, improved long-term customer retention or overall profitability.
HomelandSecurity
KeepZone targets markets with rapidly expanding HLS demand, including North America, Latin America, Europe, and the Middle East and prioritizes regions where governments and infrastructure operators are actively investing in advanced technologies to strengthen border security, protect strategic assets, and enhance public safety.
KeepZone presents itself to the market as a global security integrator with the capability to integrate complementary technologies and tailor these technologies to the specific operational requirements of each client. This model facilitates the expedited deployment of advanced security solutions for governments, defense organizations, border agencies, ports, airports, stadiums, energy facilities, and other operators of critical infrastructure worldwide.
Procurement cycles are typically multi-year, and adoption often occurs through a combination of national programs, municipal initiatives, and public-private partnerships—particularly when protecting privately operated but nationally critical assets (e.g., energy infrastructure, ports, logistics, telecom).
Selling HLS solutions internationally requires capabilities that go beyond product performance. Market access is shaped by trust, compliance,and long-term partnership alignment as much as by technology.
GovernmentRegulation and Product Approval
We do not anticipate any significant problems in obtaining future required licenses, permits or approvals that are necessary to expand our business.
Certain of our products are subject to comprehensive regulation regulatory agencies that relates to, among other things, product approvals, product registrations, manufacturing, import, export, distribution, marketing and promotion, labeling, recordkeeping, testing, quality, storage, product disposal and environmental compliance for the pest control industry. In addition, we are subject to additional laws relating to the processing of payments, consumer protection, the privacy of consumer information and other laws regarding unfair and deceptive trade practices.
We do not intend to seek regulatory approval for our poison-containing products directly. Instead, our business model is to work with local suppliers or manufacturers that already hold the required regulatory approvals for products that require such approvals, primarily poison products. In jurisdictions where applicable regulations classify certain products as poisons or otherwise subject to regulatory oversight, we expect that any required approvals, registrations, licenses, or permits will be obtained and maintained by its local suppliers or manufacturers rather than by ourselves. Under this model, we expect that our suppliers or manufacturers will be responsible for compliance with applicable regulatory requirements relating to the manufacture, formulation, labeling, registration, and permitted uses of such products in the relevant jurisdictions. Regulatory requirements applicable to such products may vary by jurisdiction and may change over time, and our ability to market or distribute its products may depend, in part, on the continued compliance of its suppliers or manufacturers with applicable laws and regulations.
The products sold by us in the U.S. are also subject to regulation in the United States by governmental agencies, including the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, the Federal Trade Commission, United States Food and Drug Administration, and similar state and international regulatory authorities. We do not engage in the sale of illegal, unsafe, or other high-risk products that are restricted or strictly prohibited.
As necessary, our carriers impose additional restrictions on dangerous products. Our carriers require compliance with international air regulations, such as the International Air Transport Association (IATA) Dangerous Goods Regulations.
50
We are also subject to environmental laws, rules and regulations, including but not limited to California’s Proposition 65, Management of Hazardous Wastes Removed from Discarded Appliances and Lead Poisoning Prevention Act. We are subject to state and municipality regulations on plastic bag warning labels. Statements we make on labels, packages and advertisements are truthful, not deceptive or unfair, and evidence-based.
As required by applicable law, we list and register our products with the appropriate governmental authorities and obtain necessary authorizations and approvals therefrom. We require that our foreign and domestic facilities engaged in manufacturing, processing, packing, or warehousing submit additional registration information, such as good manufacturing practice (GMP) and other related quality management requirements. We request certificates and clearances as proof of compliance with the existing laws and regulations. We also declare, certify and conduct testing in reputable or accredited testing laboratories. For some products, we set out written warranties in compliance with the mandatory requirements of the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act.
We are also subject to regulations relating to our supply chain. For example, the California Transparency in Supply Chains Act requires retail sellers that do business in California to disclose their efforts to eradicate slavery and human trafficking in their supply chains. As part of our vendor qualification process, we review supplier’s operations with respect to compliance with applicable labor and workplace standards and other applicable laws, including laws prohibiting child labor, forced labor and unsafe working conditions.
Although we have not suffered any material restriction from doing business in the past due to government regulation, legal issues with potential implications may arise in the future as we expand our business.
From time to time, we dispose of obsolete inventory, which is disposed of or destroyed in compliance with applicable laws and regulations, such as extended producer responsibility (EPR) or product stewardship legislation.
Regulations Relating to Environmental Protection
Compliance with local environmental regulations is crucial in the pest control industry, as products must meet specific standards to ensure safety and minimize ecological impact. While the capital or competitive impact of these regulations is typically minimal, the rejection of a product in a new jurisdiction or changes in environmental regulations within existing markets could significantly affect growth and competitive positioning. Strict regulations or delays in product approval could hinder market expansion, while regulatory changes may require costly product modifications or adaptations, impacting profitability and time-to-market. Therefore, staying informed and compliant with evolving environmental standards is essential for us to maintain its competitiveness and ensure sustainable growth.
Europe
The pest control products sold by Fort are subject to local environmental regulations, mainly with respect to pest control products containing poisons which require licenses in each individual country of sale. As such, we Fort sell its products using local licensed poison suppliers in each country. If Fort is unable to engage a licensed supplier of the active ingredient in our pest control products in a country in which it wishes to sell its poison products, Fort will not be able to sell its pest control products there.
Registration,Evaluation and Authorization of Chemicals
The European Union has enacted a regulatory framework for the Registration, Evaluation and Authorization of Chemicals, or REACH, which aims to manage chemical safety risks. REACH established a European Chemicals Agency in Helsinki, Finland, which is responsible for evaluating data to determine hazards and risks and to manage this program for authorizing chemicals for sale and distribution in Europe. We met all REACH registration requirements. To help manage this program, we have been simplifying our product lines and working with chemical suppliers to comply with registration requirements.
BiocidalProducts Regulation
The European Union’s Biocidal Products Regulation (EU) No 528/2012, or EU BPR, requires that biocidal product to be authorized by the European Chemicals Agency before it can be marketed or used in the European Union.
51
UnitedKingdom
In the United Kingdom, biocidal products are regulated under the U.K.’s Biocidal Products Regulation, or UK BPR, managed by the Health and Safety Executive (HSE), and such products be authorized before they can be marketed or used in the United Kingdom. All active substances and biocidal products must be separately approved or authorized under the UK BPR. Labels must comply with U.K. classification, labelling and packaging of chemicals regulations and be in English, and companies must follow distinct procedures for marketing in Great Britain versus Northern Ireland, which still follows the EU BPR.
France
In France, biocidal products must be authorized under the EU BPR and notified or approved by ANSES (the French regulatory authority) before being placed on the market. Product labels and safety data sheets must be in French and include country-specific warnings or use instructions. Some products may be restricted to professional use only, and France often imposes stricter environmental and public health requirements than the EU baseline.
Germany
In Germany, biocidal products are regulated under the EU BPR and must also be notified to the Federal Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (BAuA) before being marketed in Germany. Labels and safety data sheets must be in German, and additional environmental risk assessments may be required by the Federal Environment Agency (UBA), especially for products like rodenticides. Local state authorities oversee enforcement, including market surveillance and inspections.
China
China has adopted extensive environmental laws and regulations with national and local standards for emissions control, discharge of wastewater and storage and transportation, treatment and disposal of waste materials. At the national level, the relevant environmental protection laws and regulations include the Chinese Environmental Protection Law, the Chinese Law on the Prevention and Control of Air Pollution, the Chinese Law on the Prevention and Control of Water Pollution, the Chinese Law on the Promotion of Clean Production, the Chinese Law on the Prevention and Control of Noise Pollution, the Chinese Law on the Prevention and Control of Solid Waste Pollution, the Chinese Recycling Economy Promotion Law, the Chinese Law on Environmental Impact Assessment, the Administrative Regulations on the Levy and Use of Discharge Fees and the Measures for the Administration of the Charging Rates for Pollutant Discharge Fees. In recent years, the Chinese Government has introduced a series of new policies designed to generally promote the protection of the environment. For instance, on November 10, 2016, the General Office of the State Council has released the Implementing Plan for the Permit System for Controlling the Discharge of Pollutants, or the Plan. The Plan proposes the need of instituting a system for enterprises and public institutions to control their respective total amount of pollutants discharged, which shall be connected with the environmental impact assessment system organically. The Plan also stipulates that it is necessary to regulate the orderly issuance of pollutant discharge permits, to make a name list to manage the permission of pollutant discharge, to promote the administration of such permission system per industry and to impose severer administration and control over enterprises and public institutions located at such places where environment quality fails to reach relevant standards. Furthermore, the Plan requires that a national pollutant discharge permit management information platform shall be established by 2017 to strengthen the information disclosure and social supervision.
UnitedStates
Some chemicals pose perceived or real risks to the environment and human health. We require our products that contain chemicals regulated by the EPA to comply with certification reporting and other requirements of imposed by the EPA. Products with emission standards for formaldehyde from wood products are compliant with EPA and California Air Resources Board (CARB).
52
Moreover, on March 2021, we received an update from Amazon regarding a new EPA regulation. Following the new EPA regulation, Amazon categorized one of our products as a pesticide product. Amazon requires that pesticide products be filed with evidence of an EPA registration number and/or EPA establishment number or certification that the product is exempt from EPA regulation, otherwise the existing listing (of the product) may be subject to removal. The revenue from the sale of these products is immaterial to the Company and the Company does not currently expect to continue to sell such products on Amazon unless they can be sold absent these restrictions and will instead look to sell such products outside of Amazon.
We do not estimate any significant capital expenditures for environmental control matters either in the current fiscal year or in the near future.
Foreign Exchange Regulation
The Foreign Exchange Administration Regulations, most recently amended in August 2008, are the principal regulations governing foreign currency exchange in China. Under the Chinese foreign exchange regulations, payments of current account items, such as profit distributions and trade and service-related foreign exchange transactions, may be made in foreign currencies without prior approval from the State Administration of Foreign Exchange, or SAFE, by complying with certain procedural requirements. In contrast, approval from or registration with appropriate government authorities is required when Chinese Renminbi, or RMB, is converted into a foreign currency and remitted out of China to pay capital expenses such as the repayment of foreign currency-denominated loans.
In November 2012, SAFE promulgated the Circular of Further Improving and Adjusting Foreign Exchange Administration Policies on Foreign Direct Investment, which substantially amends and simplifies the foreign exchange procedure. Pursuant to this circular, the opening of various special purpose foreign exchange accounts, such as pre-establishment expenses accounts, foreign exchange capital accounts and guarantee accounts, the reinvestment of RMB proceeds by foreign investors in China, and remittance of foreign exchange profits and dividends by a foreign-invested enterprise to its foreign shareholders no longer require the approval or verification of SAFE, and multiple capital accounts for the same entity may be opened in different provinces, which was not previously possible. In addition, SAFE promulgated the Circular on Printing and Distributing the Provisions on Foreign Exchange Administration over Domestic Direct Investment by Foreign Investors and the Supporting Documents in May 2013, which specifies that the administration by the SAFE or its local branches over direct investment by foreign investors in China will be conducted by way of registration, and banks must process foreign exchange business relating to the direct investment in China based on the registration information provided by SAFE and its branches.
Under the Circular of the SAFE on Further Improving and Adjusting the Policies for Foreign Exchange Administration under Capital Accounts promulgated by the SAFE on January 10, 2014, and effective from February 10, 2014, administration over the outflow of the profits by domestic institutions has been further simplified. In principle, a bank is no longer required to examine transaction documents when handling the outflow of profits of no more than the equivalent of $50,000 by a domestic institution. When handling the outflow of profits exceeding the equivalent of $50,000, the bank, in principle, is no longer required to examine the financial audit report and capital verification report of the domestic institution, provided that it must examine, according to the principle of transaction authenticity, the profit distribution resolution of the board of directors (or the profit distribution resolution of the partners) relating to this profit outflow and the original copy of its tax record-filing form. After each profit outflow, the bank must affix its seal to and endorsements on the original copy of the relevant tax record-filing form to indicate the actual amount of the profit outflow and the date of the outflow.
On March 30, 2015, SAFE promulgated the Circular on Reforming the Management Approach regarding the Settlement of Foreign Exchange Capital of Foreign-invested Enterprises, or SAFE Circular 19, which became effective on June 1, 2015. According to SAFE Circular 19, the foreign exchange capital of foreign-invested enterprises may be settled on a discretionary basis, meaning that the foreign exchange capital in the capital account of a foreign-invested enterprise for which the rights and interests of monetary contribution has been confirmed by the local foreign exchange bureau (or the book-entry registration of monetary contribution by the banks) can be settled at the banks based on the actual operational needs of the foreign-invested enterprise. The proportion of such discretionary settlement is temporarily determined as 100%. The RMB converted from the foreign exchange capital will be kept in a designated account, and if a foreign-invested enterprise needs to make further payment from such account, it still must provide supporting documents and go through the review process with the banks.
53
Furthermore, SAFE Circular 19 stipulates that the use of capital by foreign-invested enterprises must adhere to the principles of authenticity and self-use within the business scope of enterprises. The capital of a foreign-invested enterprise and capital in RMB obtained by the foreign-invested enterprise from foreign exchange settlement must not be used for the following purposes:
| (1) | directly<br> or indirectly used for the payment beyond the business scope of the enterprises or the payment prohibited by relevant laws and regulations; |
|---|---|
| (2) | directly<br> or indirectly used for investment in securities, unless otherwise provided by relevant laws and regulations; |
| --- | --- |
| (3) | directly<br> or indirectly used for granting the entrusted loans in RMB, unless permitted by the scope of business, repaying the inter-enterprise<br> borrowing (including advances by the third party), or repaying the bank loans in RMB that have been sub-lent to the third party;<br> and/or |
| --- | --- |
| (4) | paying<br> the expenses related to the purchase of real estate that is not for self-use, except for the foreign-invested real estate enterprises. |
| --- | --- |
On June 9, 2016, SAFE issued the Notice to Reform and Regulate the Administration Policies of Foreign Exchange Capital Settlement to further reform foreign exchange capital settlement nationwide.
Regulations Relating to Homeland Security Operations
We may be subject, both directly and indirectly, to the adverse impact of existing and potential future government regulation of the products that KeepZone delivers, and its technology, operations and markets.
KeepZone’s operations are subject to U.S. and foreign anti-corruption and trade control laws and regulations, such as the FCPA, export controls and economic sanctions programs, including those administered by the U.S. Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control, or OFAC, the State Department’s Directorate of Defense Trade Controls, or DDTC, and the Bureau of Industry and Security, or BIS, of the Department of Commerce. As a result of doing business in foreign countries and with foreign customers, we are exposed to a heightened risk of violating anti-corruption and trade control laws and sanctions regulations
The marketing and export of homeland and defense related equipment, services, ‘know-how’ are subject to the DECA regulations under Israeli Trade Control Laws, which impact our operations, for example by limiting our ability to sell, export, or otherwise transfer products or technology, or to release controlled technology to non-Israeli companies.
In the U.S., these laws include the International Traffic in Arms Regulations, or ITAR, administered by the DDTC, the Export Administration Regulations, or EAR, administered by the BIS and trade sanctions against embargoed countries and destinations administered by OFAC and collectively, American Trade Control Laws. The EAR governs products, parts, technology and software which present military or weapons proliferation concerns, so-called “dual use” items, and ITAR governs military items listed on the United States Munitions List, or USML. Prior to shipping certain items, we must obtain an export license or verify that license exemptions are available. Any failures to comply with these laws and regulations could result in fines, adverse publicity and restrictions on our ability to export our products and repeated failures could carry more significant penalties.
We may not be able to retain licenses and other authorizations required under the applicable American Trade Control Laws and Israeli Trade Control Laws. The failure to satisfy the requirements under such laws, including the failure or inability to obtain necessary licenses or qualify for license exceptions, could delay or prevent the development, production, export, import, and/or in-country transfer of the products and technology that we deliver, which could adversely affect our revenues and profitability.
54
Regulations Relating to Data Privacy and Security
Regulations, legislation or self-regulation relating to privacy, data collection and protection, e-commerce and internet advertising (including, behavioral advertising) and uncertainties regarding the application or interpretation of existing or newly adopted laws and regulations, could harm our business and subject us to significant legal liability for non-compliance. Our ability to either collect or use data could be restricted by new laws or regulations.
Our business is conducted through the internet and therefore, among other things, we are subject to the laws and regulations that apply to e-commerce and online businesses around the world. These laws and regulations are becoming more prevalent in the United States, Europe, Israel and elsewhere and may impede the growth our services. These regulations and laws may cover privacy, data collection and protection, location of data storage and processing, cybersecurity, e-commerce, content, use of “cookies”, pricing, advertising, marketing, distribution of products, consumer protection, taxation and online payment services.
For example, we collect, use, maintain and otherwise process certain data about consumers of our products, partners, candidates and employees, consultants, and leads. Our ability to collect, use, maintain or otherwise process personal data has been, and could be further, restricted by existing and new laws and regulations relating to privacy and data collection and protection. In addition, some countries are considering or have enacted legislation requiring local storage and processing of data that could increase the cost and complexity of delivering our services.
If we were found in violation of any applicable laws or regulations relating to privacy, data protection, or security, in any jurisdiction, including in jurisdictions where we operate remotely (such as by selling to shoppers residing in such jurisdictions), our business may be materially and adversely affected and we would be liable for any damages and regulatory fines and would likely have to change our business practices. In addition, these laws and regulations could impose significant costs on us and could constrain our ability to use and process data in manners that may be commercially desirable.
While it is generally the laws of the jurisdiction in which a business is located that apply, there is a risk that data protection regulators of other countries may seek jurisdiction over our remote activities in locations in which we process data or serve shoppers but do not have an operating entity. Where the local data protection and privacy laws of a jurisdiction apply, we may be required to register our operations in that jurisdiction or make changes to our business so that shopper data is only collected and processed in accordance with applicable local law. In addition, because our services are accessible worldwide, certain foreign jurisdictions may claim that we are required to comply with their privacy and data protection laws, including jurisdictions where we have no local entity, employees or infrastructure. In such cases, we may require additional legal review and resources to ensure compliance with any applicable privacy or data protection laws and regulations. In addition, in many jurisdictions there may in the future be new legislation that may affect our business and require additional legal review.
We also expect that there will continue to be new laws, regulations, and industry standards concerning privacy, data protection, and information security proposed and enacted in various jurisdictions. For example, in the European Economic Area, or the EEA, we are subject to the GDPR, which imposes stringent operational requirements regarding, among others, data use, sharing and processing, data breach notifications, data subject rights, documentation, and cross-border data transfers for EEA entities as well as non-EEA entities that offer goods or services to, or monitor, individuals in the EEA. Failure to comply with the GDPR could result in penalties for noncompliance (including possible fines of up to the greater of €20 million and 4% of our global annual turnover for the preceding financial year for especially severe violations, as well as the right to compensation for financial or non-financial damages claimed by individuals under Article 82 of the GDPR).
In addition to the GDPR, we are subject to the United Kingdom’s Data Protection Act of 2018, or the U.K. GDPR, that imposes obligations and penalties similar to the GDPR including fines up to the greater of £17.5 million or 4% of global turnover. EEA and U.K. privacy laws are constantly developing, including through case law and regulatory guidance, which increases our compliance costs and regulatory exposure.
In the EEA and the U.K. under national laws, derived from the Directive 2002/58 on Privacy and Electronic Communications, or the ePrivacy Directive, informed and freely given consent is required for the placement of cookies and similar technologies on shoppers’ devices, website users and imposes restrictions on electronic marketing, subject to some exemptions. The GDPR and U.K. regime also impose conditions on obtaining valid consent for cookies, such as a prohibition on pre-checked consents. Recent European court and regulatory decisions are driving increased attention to cookies and tracking technologies, which could lead to substantial costs, require significant systems changes, limit the effectiveness of our marketing activities, divert the attention of our technology personnel, adversely affect our margins, increase costs and subject us to additional liabilities. The European Commission’s Digital Omnibus Proposal, published in November 2025, includes proposed amendments to certain EU laws and regulations, including (among others) the GDPR. However, the proposal remains at an early stage of the EU legislative process.
55
Additionally, we are or may soon be subject to several U.S. state privacy laws including the CCPA, as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act, which came into effect on January 1, 2020 and, imposes heightened transparency obligations, adds restrictions on the “sale” or “share” of personal information (which it defines broadly), and creates new data privacy rights for California residents and carries significant enforcement penalties for non-compliance. The California Attorney General enforces the CCPA and can seek an injunction and civil penalties up to $7,500 per intentional violation and $2,500 per other violation. The CCPA also provides California consumers a private right of action for certain data breaches where they can recover up to $750 per incident, per consumer or actual damages, whichever is greater, and which is expected to increase data breach litigation. The CCPA may require us to modify our data practices and policies and to incur substantial costs and expenses in order to comply. Additional U.S. states have implemented, or are in the process of implementing, similar new laws or regulation. Non-compliance with state privacy laws could result in regulatory investigations and enforcement actions, private litigation (including class actions), significant fines and remediation costs, operational restrictions, and reputational harm. Further, laws in all 50 states require companies to provide notice to consumers whose personal information has been disclosed or subject to unauthorized access as a result of a data breach, in certain circumstances. More generally, some observers have noted the trend toward more stringent privacy legislation and judicial action in the US, including similar laws and decisions in other U.S. states and a potential federal privacy law, all of which could increase our potential liability and adversely affect our business.
In addition, we are also subject to the PPL), and its regulations, including but not limited to the Israeli Privacy Protection Regulations (Data Security) 2017 (“Data Security Regulations”), as well as the guidelines issued by the Israeli Privacy Protection Authority, or the PPA, which impose obligations with respect to the manner personal data is processed, maintained, transferred, disclosed, accessed and secured. Furthermore, , the Privacy Protection Regulations (Provisions Regarding Information Transferred to Israel from the European Economic Area), 2023 may, in certain cases, provide additional rights to data subjects from the EEA whose personal data is stored in databases located in Israel, or whose personal data is stored together with such data. In this respect, the PPL and its Regulations including the Data Security Regulations may require us to adjust our data protection and data security practices, information security measures, certain organizational procedures, mandatory positions (such as an information security manager) and other technical and organizational security measures.
Additionally, the Privacy Protection Regulations (Transfer of Data to Databases Outside the State Borders), 5761-2001, or the Cross-Border Transfer Regulations, restrict and impose conditions on the transfer of personal information from databases in Israel to locations outside Israel. These regulations may require us to implement additional contractual, technical, and organizational measures to enable such transfers and maintain compliance, which could increase our costs.
In addition, our use of AI tools in connection with the processing of personal information is subject to the PPL and may present unique privacy and information security challenges. We conduct ongoing compliance assessments and apply legal, technical, and operational controls designed to help ensure that our use of AI remains compliant with applicable laws and regulatory expectations.
Furthermore, a material amendment to the PPL was approved by the Israeli Parliament on August 5, 2024, which became effective on August 14, 2025 or Amendment 13. Amendment 13 expands enforcement powers for the PPA, , including investigation authority and increases the monetary sanctions that can be imposed for breach of the PPL and its regulations, which are significantly higher than those previously available. It also introduces additional obligations on organizations processing personal data. We conduct ongoing compliance assessments and work to implement the measures required to address applicable requirements. The consequences of implementing the requirements under Amendment 13 may lead to substantial costs, require significant system changes, limit the effectiveness of our marketing activities, divert the attention of our technology personnel, adversely affect our margins, increase costs and subject us to additional liabilities. In addition, to the extent that any administrative supervision procedure is initiated by the PPA that reveals certain irregularities with respect to our compliance with the Israeli Privacy Law, in addition to our exposure to administrative fines, civil claims (including class actions) and in certain cases criminal liability, we may also need to take certain remedial actions to rectify such irregularities, which may increase our costs.
56
Failure to comply with the PPL, its regulations and guidelines issued by the PPA (including in connection with our AI-enabled solutions), may expose us to enforcement actions, administrative fines and penalties (which, in some cases, may reach millions of NIS), litigation (including class actions) and in certain cases criminal liability.
We rely on information technology systems to operate and manage our business and to process, maintain, and safeguard information, including information related to our users, clients, partners, and personnel. This information is stored and managed within our internal information technology infrastructure or, in certain instances, on platforms maintained by third-party service providers. These systems, whether operated internally or externally, may be subject to breaches, failures, or disruptions as a result of, among other things, cyber-attacks, computer viruses, physical security breaches, natural disasters, accidents, power disruptions, telecommunications failures, new system implementations, or acts of terrorism or war. In the current environment, there are numerous and evolving risks to cybersecurity, data and privacy, including criminal hackers, hacktivists, state-sponsored intrusions, industrial espionage, employee malfeasance and human or technological errors. High-profile security breaches at other companies and in government agencies have increased in frequency and sophistication in recent years. Moreover, geopolitical tensions, particularly the Hamas-Israel and the Russia-Ukraine conflicts, have contributed to a surge in cyber-attacks targeting Israeli companies and products globally, posing a threat to critical infrastructure.
Any failure or perceived failure by our subsidiaries or by us to comply with our posted privacy policies, cookies policies, our privacy-related obligations to users or other third parties, or any other legal obligations or regulatory requirements relating to privacy, data protection, or data security may result in governmental investigations or enforcement actions, litigation, claims, or public statements against us by consumer advocacy groups or others and could result in significant liability, cause our users to lose trust in us, and otherwise materially and adversely affect our reputation and business. Furthermore, the costs of compliance with, and other burdens imposed by, the laws, regulations, other obligations, and policies that are applicable to the businesses of our users may limit the adoption and use of, and reduce the overall demand for, our e-commerce platforms and websites. Further, public scrutiny of, or complaints about, technology and e-commerce platform companies or their data handling or data protection practices, even if unrelated to our business, industry, or operations, may lead to increased scrutiny of technology and e-commerce platform companies, including us, and may cause government agencies to enact additional regulatory requirements, or to modify their enforcement or investigation activities, which may increase our costs and risks.
In the United States and internationally, AI is the subject of evolving review by various governmental and regulatory agencies, including the SEC and the FTC, and changes in laws, rules, directives and regulations governing the use of AI may adversely affect the ability of our business to use or rely on AI. For example, on May 17, 2024, Colorado enacted the Colorado AI Act. The Colorado AI Act creates duties for developers and for those that deploy AI. There is a specific focus on bias and discrimination. The Act will go into effect on June 30, 2026. Furthermore, in March 2024 Utah enacted the Artificial Intelligence Policy Act, which imposes certain disclosure obligations and consumer protection responsibilities on companies that use generative AI. Additionally in September 2024, California enacted the California AI Transparency Act, which imposes transparency obligations on companies that develop or substantially modify AI models and In June 2025 Texas enacted the Texas Responsible Artificial Intelligence Governance Act which establishes a comprehensive legal framework for AI development, deployment, and oversight.
In Europe, the EU AI Act entered into force on February 2, 2025, with different provisions becoming gradually applicable on different dates. While the majority of its obligations are expected to take effect by 2026, provisions regulating prohibited AI practices and AI literacy came into effect on February 2, 2025, and provisions pertaining to general purpose AI models on 2 August 2025. The EU AI Act includes requirements around transparency, conformity assessments and monitoring, risk assessments, human oversight, security, accuracy and general-purpose AI models. Furthermore, it includes fines of the higher of €35,000,000 or up to 7 percent of a company’s total worldwide annual turnover for non-compliance with prohibited AI practices, or the higher of €7,500,000 or up to 1 percent of a company’s total worldwide annual turnover for the supply of incorrect, incomplete, or misleading information to notified bodies and national competent authorities in certain contexts. In addition, the revised EU Product Liability Directive came into force in December 2024, to be implemented into EU member state national law by December 2026. This Directive extends the EU’s existing product liability regime to include, among other, AI systems and facilitates civil claims in respect of harm caused by AI systems. The cost of complying with such laws or regulations could be significant and could increase our operating expenses, require technical changes, development and implementations, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. The European Commission’s Digital Omnibus Proposal, published in November 2025, includes proposed amendments to certain EU laws and regulations, including (among others) the EU AI Act. However, the proposal remains at an early stage of the EU legislative process.

RecentDevelopments
CorporateRebranding
On December 23, 2025, we announced the planned Corporate Rebranding to reflect our intended strategic focus on HLS and advanced technologies. The planned Corporate Rebranding began with the name change of our subsidiary “Jeffs’ Brands Holdings Inc.” to “KeepZone AI Inc.” on December 2, 2025, and the entry of KeepZone into a distribution agreement with Scanary, on December 4, 2025. On December 8, 2025, our Board of Directors appointed Alon Dayan to serve as the Chief Executive Officer of KeepZone. Effective as of March 26, 2026, we changed the Company’s name to “Nexera Technologies Ltd.

Overview
We are a data driven e-commerce company operating primarily on the Amazon marketplace, or Amazon, and we have recently begun expanding into the global homeland security, or HLS, sector through advanced artificial intelligence, or AI, driven solutions. We were incorporated in Israel in March 2021, under the name Jeffs’ Brands Ltd, to provide various services, such as management, operation and logistics, marketing and financial services to our subsidiaries that operate online stores for the sale of various consumer products on Amazon, utilizing the r FBA model.
On December 23, 2025, we announced a planned corporate rebranding to reflect our intended strategic focus on HLS and advanced technologies. The planned Corporate Rebranding began with the name change of our subsidiary “Jeffs’ Brands Holdings Inc.” to “KeepZone AI Inc.” on December 2, 2025 and the entry of KeepZone into a distribution agreement with Scanary, an Israeli deep-tech developer of 3D imaging, electromagnetic, and AI-powered threat detection systems, on December 4, 2025. We also changed the Company’s name to “Nexera Technologies Ltd”, effective as of March 26, 2026.
As of the date of this Annual Report, we have seven wholly or majority owned subsidiaries, held directly by us or through our subsidiaries: Fort Technology, Smart Repair Pro, Top Rank Ltd., Fort, KeepZone, Fort Products LLC and Pure Logistics. We also hold, through our subsidiary, KeepZone, a minority interest in SciSparc Nutraceuticals, to whom we provide a variety of professional and business support services.
In addition to executing the FBA business model, we utilize internal methodologies to analyze sales data and patterns on Amazon in order to identify existing stores, niches and products that have the potential for development and growth, and to maximize sales of existing proprietary products. We also use our own skills, know-how and profound familiarity with Amazon’s algorithm and all the tools that the FBA platform has to offer. In some circumstances we scale the products and improve them. As a supplement to our e-commerce operations, Pure Logistics operates a strategically located logistics center in New Jersey, which we anticipate will strengthen our supply chain and third-party service offerings. We also aim to deliver comprehensive, multi-layered security ecosystems for critical infrastructure worldwide, capitalizing on the HLS market’s significant growth potential while leveraging our expertise in data-driven operations.

On January 16, 2025, we issued a convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $2,850,000 to an institutional investor, or the January 2025 Promissory Note. The January 2025 Promissory Note was issued with a 10% original issue discount from the principal amount and is to be repaid in one payment on the 18th month anniversary of the issuance date, or July 16, 2026, unless repaid earlier (partially or in full) at our option, or if extended at the option of the holder. The principal amount under the January 2025 Promissory Note bears an annual interest rate of 8% (which will increase to 18% upon an event of default, as defined in the note). The outstanding amount due under the January 2025 Promissory Note was convertible (partially or in full) into Ordinary Shares, at the option of the holder, at any time after the issuance date, at a conversion price equal to the lower of (i) $668.74192 per Ordinary Share, or (ii) 95% of the lowest daily volume-weighted average price during the 20 trading days immediately preceding the applicable date of conversion.
In connection with the issuance of the January 2025 Promissory Note, we issued to the holder a warrant to purchase up to 3,197 Ordinary Shares, or the January 2025 Warrant, as amended and restated effective as of June 30, 2025. The January 2025 Warrant was exercisable upon issuance at an initial exercise price of $579.55499 per Ordinary Share (subject to anti-dilution and share combination event protections) and has a term of 5.5 years from the issuance date, or July 16, 2030. Effective as of February 23, 2026, the exercise price of the January 2025 Warrant was adjusted to $3.9663 per Ordinary Share, pursuant to Section 2(a) of the January 2025 Warrant (subject to any further adjustment as provided therein).
As of the date of this Annual Report, 19,641 Ordinary Shares have been issued following the conversion of the January 2025 Promissory Note by the holder and the remaining principal amount accrued interest and pre-payment penalty of $270,831 were repaid by us to the holder.

We raised aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $581 thousand from the May 2025 Registered Direct Offering.
ConvertibleNotes Securities Purchase Agreement
On June 26, 2025, we entered into a securities purchase agreement with an institutional investor, or the Notes SPA, pursuant to which, we may issue and sell to the investor, from time to time as provided therein, non-recourse convertible promissory notes, or the Promissory Notes, for a maximum principal amount of $100,000,000, or the Subscription Amount, for an aggregate purchase price of up to $90 million (90% of the Subscription Amount).
At the initial closing on June 26, 2025, or the Initial Closing, the investor purchased from us a Promissory Note in the principal amount of $5.0 million, for a purchase price of $4.5 million, or the Initial Promissory Note. Subject to the conditions set forth in the Notes SPA, beginning on December 1, 2025, we may, at our sole discretion, require the investor to purchase additional Promissory Notes, or the Additional Promissory Notes, in the principal amount of up to $2.5 million per calendar quarter, at a purchase price equal to 90% of the principal amount of such Additional Promissory Notes, payable in cash.

The February 2026 Note Warrant was immediately exercisable upon its issuance at an initial exercise price of $5.53 per Ordinary Share (subject to any further adjustments as set forth therein) and has a term of 5.5 years from issuance date.
The exercise of the Warrant is the investor’s sole recourse against non-payment of the Principal Amount, Interest, and any Payment Premium (as defined in the Second Promissory Note and the Third Promissory Note), if applicable, regardless of whether the value realized from the February 2026 Note Warrant and/or the Ordinary Shares underlying the Promissory Notes is less than the then outstanding Principal Amount, Interest, and if applicable, the Payment Premium.
Effective as of February 23, 2026, the exercise price of the February 2026 Note Warrant was adjusted to $3.9663 per Ordinary Share, pursuant to Section 2(a) of the February 2026 Note Warrant (subject to any further adjustment as provided therein).
The outstanding principal amount and accrued interest under the Promissory Notes are to be repaid in ten equal monthly installments beginning on the eighteenth month anniversary of the issuance date thereof, unless repaid earlier (partially or in full) at our option or if extended at the option of the investor.
The outstanding amount of the principal and any accrued interest due under the Promissory Notes is convertible (partially or in full) into Ordinary Shares, at the option of the investor, at any time after the issuance date, at a conversion price equal to the lower of i) the closing price of the Ordinary Shares on the Nasdaq Capital Market on the last trading day immediately prior to the date of issuance of such Promissory Note, or the Fixed Price and (ii) 88% of the lowest daily volume weighted average price during the 20 consecutive trading days immediately preceding the applicable date of conversion, or the Variable Price, provided that such Variable Price may not be lower than the floor price which shall be equal to 20% of the Fixed Price, subject to certain adjustments as provided in the Promissory Notes.

CurrentOutlook
As of December 31, 2025, our cash and cash equivalents were $1,636. We expect that our existing cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2025, will be sufficient to fund our current operations and satisfy our obligations for the next twelve months taking into consideration the proceeds received from the January 2024 PIPE, the exercise of warrants from the January 2024 PIPE, the January 2025 convertible promissory note, the May 2025 Registered Director Offering, , the January 2025 Registered Direct Offering and the Initial Promissory Note, the Second Promissory Note and the Third Promissory Note. In addition, our operating plans may change as a result of many factors that may currently be unknown to us, and we may need to seek additional funds sooner than planned.
Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including:
| ● | the<br> progress and costs of purchasing new brands and their development plans; |
|---|---|
| ● | the<br> costs of operating Pure Logistics; |
| ● | the<br> costs of manufacturing and shipment of our products; |

D.Trend information
The trends impacting us are described elsewhere in this Annual Report, including in “Item 3.D. Risk Factors”, “Item 4.B. Business Overview”, “Item 5.A. Operating Results”, “Item 5.B. Liquidity and Capital Resources”, and Item 10.C. Material Contracts”.
Adverse macroeconomic conditions, including recent inflation, slower growth, changes to fiscal and monetary policy, higher interest rates, and currency fluctuations have impacted companies in Israel and around the world, and as the future market conditions and possible recession remain highly uncertain, we cannot predict severity of the possible recession and its effects on our customers and their spending habits. See also Item 3.D. “Risk Factors” - General economic factors may adversely affect our business, financial performance and results of operations”.
E.Critical Accounting Estimates
We describe our significant accounting policies more fully in Note 2 to our financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report. We believe that the accounting policies described below and in Note 2 to our financial statements are critical in order to fully understand and evaluate our financial condition and results of operations.
The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and income and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. We have identified the following critical accounting policies:
68
DerivativeLiabilities
We account for the outstanding additional warrants to purchase up to 130 Ordinary Shares at an exercise price $43,749.16 per Ordinary Share, issued on November 28, 2022, or the Additional Warrants and the outstanding Series A warrants to purchase up to 1,115,210 Ordinary Shares at an exercise price of $3.996 issued on January 25, 2024 in connection with the January 2024 PIPE, or the Series A Warrants, as liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification, or ASC, Topic 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity”, or ASC Topic 480, and ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”, or ASC Topic 815. The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC Topic 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC Topic 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC Topic 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to our own ordinary shares and whether the warrant holders could potentially require “net cash settlement” in a circumstance outside of our control, among other conditions for equity classification. Based on their contractual terms, the Additional Warrants are accounted for as a derivative liability.
The estimated fair value of the Additional Warrants is determined using Level 3 inputs (as described in the notes to financial statements accompanying this Annual Report). The Additional Warrants were calculated according to the binomial model under the following assumptions: expected stock-price volatility, expected life, dividend yield and risk-free interest rate and revenue forecast over the life of the Additional Warrants.
The estimated fair value of the Series A warrants was calculated according to the binomial model under the following assumptions: expected stock-price volatility, expected life, dividend yield and risk-free interest rate and management assumptions about the probability of future adjustment event.
IntangibleAssets Valuation
We review our intangible assets and equity investment for impairment when performance expectations, events, or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset’s carrying value may not be recoverable.
For intangible assets, when impairment indicators exist, we evaluate the undiscounted future cash flows to the carrying value of the intangible asset group. If the evaluation indicates that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable, any potential impairment is measured based upon the fair value of the related asset group as determined by an appropriate market appraisal or other valuation technique.
For an equity method investment, ASC 323 requires us to measure impairment that is determined to be other than temporary by comparing the carrying value of the investment with its fair value.
Based on the decline in SciSparc Nutraceuticals revenues and operating losses during 2025 and 2024, we used the work of a fair value expert, to determine that the fair value of the Company’s investment in SciSparc Nutraceuticals was impaired. Accordingly, an impairment loss of $115 and $659 thousand was recorded for the year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 respectively, within equity losses in the consolidated statement of operations.
The fair value measurement of SciSparc Nutraceuticals as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, required significant judgements using Level 3 inputs, such as discounted projected future revenue projections, which are not observable from the market, directly or indirectly. There is uncertainty in the projected future revenues used in the Company’s impairment analysis, which requires the use of estimates and assumptions. Key assumptions in the impairment models included the discount rate and royalty rate.
Goodwill
Goodwill is tested for impairment at least annually, and whenever events or changes in circumstances occur indicating that it is “more likely than not” impairment may have been incurred. We have the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is “more likely than not” that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value as a basis for determining if it is necessary to perform the quantitative goodwill impairment test. However, if we conclude otherwise, then we are required to perform the quantitative impairment test by calculating the fair value of the reporting unit and comparing it against its carrying value.
In estimating the fair value of our reporting unit the Company used the income approach. The income approach to valuation requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions related to future revenues, profitability, working capital requirements and selection of discount rate and long term growth rate. Changes in these estimates and assumptions could have a significant impact on the fair value of the reporting unit. If the fair value exceeds the carrying value, no further evaluation is required and no impairment loss is recognized.
The Company has one reporting unit to which goodwill. In 2025 the Company performed a qualitative impairment assessment for the reporting unit.
69
BusinessCombinations
We allocate the purchase price of an acquired company, including when applicable, the fair value of contingent or deferred consideration between tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed from the acquired businesses based on estimated fair values, with any residual of the purchase price recorded as goodwill. Third party appraisal firms and other consultants are engaged to assist management in determining the fair values of certain assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Different valuations approaches are used to value different types of intangible assets. We primarily use the income approach in the valuation of intangible assets. The income approach to valuation is based on the present value of future cash flows attributable to each identifiable intangible asset. This approach to valuation requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions including but not limited to: discount rates, future cash flows and attrition rates of customer relationships. These estimates are based on historical experience and information obtained from the management of the acquired companies, and are inherently uncertain.

Employmentand Service Agreements with Executive Officers
We have entered into written employment and service agreements with each of our executive officers. All of these agreements contain customary provisions regarding confidentiality of information and assignment of inventions. However, the enforceability of the noncompetition provisions may be limited under applicable law. In addition, we have entered into our standard form of indemnification agreement, in the form filed as an exhibit to this Annual Report, with each of our directors and members of our senior management. Each such indemnification agreement provides the indemnified person with indemnification to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law and up to a certain amount, and to the extent that these liabilities are not covered by directors and officers insurance or other indemnification agreements. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.
Directors’Service Contracts
Other than with respect to our directors that are also executive officers, we do not have written agreements with any director providing for benefits upon the termination of his employment with the Company.
EquityIncentive Plans
2022Israeli Incentive Option Plan
On January 19, 2021, we adopted the 2022 Israeli Incentive Option Plan, or the 2022 Plan. We no longer grant any awards under the 2022 Plan as it was superseded by the Jeffs’ Brands Ltd 2024 Share Incentive Plan, or the 2024 Plan.
74
2024Share Incentive Plan
The 2024 Plan was adopted by our board of directors on May 15, 2024. The 2024 Plan provides for the grant of equity-based incentive awards to our employees, directors, office holders, service providers and consultants in order to incentivize them to increase their efforts on behalf of the Company and to promote the success of our business. As of the date of this Annual Report, 23,796 Ordinary Shares were reserved and available for issuance under the 2024 Plan.
SharesAvailable for Grants. The maximum number ordinary shares available for issuance under the 2024 Plan was initially equal to 510 Ordinary Shares, which, following amendments on September 10, 2025 and January 1, 2026, was increased to 65,429 Ordinary Shares, provided that no more than 510 Ordinary Shares may be issued upon the exercise of Incentive Stock Options. If permitted by our board of directors, shares tendered to pay the exercise price or withholding tax obligations with respect to an award granted under the 2024 Plan or the 2022 Plan may again be available for issuance under the 2024 Plan, unless determined otherwise by the Board. Our board of directors may also reduce or increase the number of ordinary shares reserved and available for issuance under the 2024 Plan in its discretion.
Administration. Our board of directors, or a duly authorized committee of our board of directors, or the administrator, will administer the 2024 Plan. Under the 2024 Plan, the administrator has the authority, subject to applicable law, to interpret the terms of the 2024 Plan and any award agreements or awards granted thereunder, designate recipients of awards, determine and amend the terms of awards, including the exercise price of an option award, the fair market value of an ordinary share, the time and vesting schedule applicable to an award or the method of payment for an award, accelerate or amend the vesting schedule applicable to an award, prescribe the forms of agreement for use under the 2024 Plan and take all other actions and make all other determinations necessary for the administration of the 2024 Plan.
The administrator also has the authority to approve the conversion, substitution, cancellation or suspension under and in accordance with the 2024 Plan of any or all option awards or ordinary shares, and the authority to modify option awards to eligible individuals who are foreign nationals or are individuals who are employed outside Israel to recognize differences in local law, tax policy or custom, in order to effectuate the purposes of the 2024 Plan but without amending the 2024 Plan. The administrator also has the authority to amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to the 2024 Plan or terminate the 2024 Plan at any time before the date of expiration of its ten-year term.
C.Board Practices
Introduction
Our board of directors presently consists of seven members. We believe that Oz Adler, Amitay Weiss, Tomer Etzyoni, Israel Berenstein, Moshe Revach and Tali Dinar are “independent” for purposes of the Nasdaq listing rules and SEC rules and regulations. Our amended and restated articles of association provide that the number of board of directors’ members shall be no less than three and not more than twelve (including external directors, if any). Pursuant to the Companies Law, the management of our business is vested in our board of directors. Our board of directors may exercise all powers and may take all actions that are not specifically granted to our shareholders or to management. Our executive officers are responsible for our day-to-day management and have individual responsibilities established by our board of directors. Our Chief Executive Officer is appointed by, and serves at the discretion of, our board of directors, subject to the employment agreement that we have entered into with him. All other executive officers are appointed by our Chief Executive Officer. Their terms of employment are subject to the approval of the board of directors’ compensation committee of the board of directors, and are subject to the terms of any applicable employment agreements that we may enter into with them.
75
Each director, except for external directors, if any, will hold office until the annual general meeting of our shareholders for the year in which such director’s term expires, unless the tenure of such director expires earlier pursuant to the Companies Law or unless he or she is removed by the holders of at least 70% of the total voting power of our shareholders or upon the occurrence of certain events, in accordance with the Companies Law and our amended and restated articles of association. Our amended and restated articles of association provide that 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 Class I directors shall hold office until the annual general meeting to be held in 2026 and until their successors shall have been elected and qualified. The Class II director shall hold office until the annual general meeting to be held in 2027 and until their successor shall have been elected and qualified. The Class III directors shall hold office until the annual general meeting to be held in 2028 and until their successors shall have been elected and qualified. The Board may assign members of the Board 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.
In addition, under certain circumstances, our amended and restated articles of association allow our board of directors to appoint directors to fill vacancies on our board of directors or in addition to the acting directors (subject to the limitation on the number of directors), in one of the classes and until the next annual general meeting according to the appropriate class in which directors may be appointed or terminated.
Under the Companies Law, any shareholder holding at least one percent of our outstanding voting power may ask to add nomination of a director for the approval of the general meeting of shareholders, however, as a company listed on an exchange outside of Israel, a matter relating to the appointment or removal of a director may only be requested by one or more shareholders holding at least 5% of the voting rights at the general meeting of the shareholders. However, any such shareholder may make such a nomination only if a written notice of such shareholder’s intent to make such nomination has been given to our board of directors. Any such notice must include certain information, including the consent of the proposed director nominee to serve as our director if elected, and a declaration that the nominee signed declaring that he or she possesses the requisite skills and has the availability to carry out his or her duties. Additionally, the nominee must provide details of such skills, and demonstrate an absence of any limitation under the Companies Law that may prevent his or her election, and affirm that all of the required election-information is provided to us, pursuant to the Companies Law.
Under the Companies Law, our board of directors must determine the minimum number of directors who are required to have accounting and financial expertise. In determining the number of directors required to have such expertise, our board of directors must consider, among other things, the type and size of the company and the scope and complexity of its operations. Our board of directors has determined that the minimum number of directors of our company who are required to have accounting and financial expertise is one.
The board of directors must elect one director to serve as the chairman of the board of directors to preside at the meetings of the board of directors, and may also remove that director as chairman. Pursuant to the Companies Law, neither the chief executive officer nor any of his or her relatives is permitted to serve as the chairman of the board of directors, and a company may not vest the chairman or any of his or her relatives with the chief executive officer’s authorities. In addition, a person who reports, directly or indirectly, to the chief executive officer may not serve as the chairman of the board of directors; the chairman may not be vested with authorities of a person who reports, directly or indirectly, to the chief executive officer; and the chairman may not serve in any other position in the company or a controlled company, but he or she may serve as a director or chairman of a controlled company. However, the Companies Law permits a company’s shareholders to determine, for a period not exceeding three years from each such determination or five years following a company’s initial public offering, that the chairman or his or her relative may serve as chief executive officer or be vested with the chief executive officer’s authorities, and that the chief executive officer or his or her relative may serve as chairman or be vested with the chairman’s authorities. Such determination of a company’s shareholders requires either: (1) the approval of at least a majority of the shares of those shareholders present and voting on the matter (other than controlling shareholders and those having a personal interest in the determination) (shares held by abstaining shareholders shall not be considered); or (2) that the total number of shares opposing such determination does not exceed 2% of the total voting power in the company. We refer to this special majority hereinafter as the Special Majority Approval. The chairman of our board of directors is Mr. Oz Adler.
76
The board of directors may, subject to the provisions of the Companies Law, delegate any or all of its powers to committees of the board, and it may, from time to time, revoke such delegation or alter the composition of any such committees, subject to certain limitations. Unless otherwise expressly provided by the board of directors, the committees shall not be empowered to further delegate such powers. The composition and duties of our audit committee and compensation committee are described below.
The board of directors oversees how management monitors compliance with our risk management policies and procedures, and reviews the adequacy of the risk management framework in relation to the risks faced by us. The board of directors is assisted in its oversight role by an internal auditor. The internal auditor undertakes both regular and ad hoc reviews of risk management controls and procedures, the results of which are reported to our audit committee.
ExternalDirectors
Under the Companies Law, companies incorporated under the laws of the State of Israel that are “public companies” are required to appoint at least two external directors who meet the qualification requirements under the Companies Law. Pursuant to regulations promulgated under the Companies Law, companies with shares traded on certain U.S. stock exchanges, including Nasdaq, which do not have a “controlling shareholder,” may, subject to certain conditions, “opt out” from the Companies Law requirements to appoint external directors and related Companies Law rules concerning the composition of the audit committee and compensation committee of the board of directors (other than the gender diversification rule under the Companies Law, which requires the appointment of a director from the other gender if at the time a director is appointed all members of the board of directors are of the same gender). In accordance with these regulations, after determining that we no longer have a controlling shareholder, on May 15, 2024, our Board of Directors elected to “opt out” from the Companies Law requirement to appoint external directors and related Companies Law rules concerning the composition of the audit committee and compensation committee of our board of directors. The transition rules set forth under the regulations promulgated under the Companies Law provide that Mr. Israel Berenstein and Mr. Tomer Etzyoni, our former external directors, have the right to remain in office as our directors at their option after the “opt out’ is adopted until the earlier of such directors’ original end of term of office or the second annual meeting of shareholders after the adoption of the exemption, which in the case of both is was until the date of our annual meeting of shareholders held in 2025. Accordingly, the Board of Directors resolved to reappoint each of Mr. Tomer Etzyoni and Mr. Israel Berenstein to serve as a Class II and Class III director, respectively.
AlternateDirectors
Our amended and restated articles of association provide, as allowed by the Companies Law, that any director may, subject to the conditions set thereto including approval of the nominee by our board of directors, appoint a person as an alternate to act in his place, to remove the alternate and appoint another in his place and to appoint an alternate in place of an alternate whose office is vacated for any reason whatsoever. Under the Companies Law, a person who is not qualified to be appointed as a director, a person who is already serving as a director or a person who is already serving as an alternate director for another director, may not be appointed as an alternate director. Nevertheless, a director who is already serving as a director may be appointed as an alternate director for a member of a committee of the board of directors so long as he or she is not already serving as a member of such committee. Unless the appointing director limits the time or scope of the appointment, the appointment is effective for all purposes until the appointing director ceases to be a director or terminates the appointment.
Committeesof the Board of Directors
Our board of directors has established two standing committees, the audit committee and the compensation committee.

NasdaqListing Rules for Audit Committee
Under the Nasdaq listing rules, we are required to maintain an audit committee consisting of at least three members, all of whom are independent and are financially literate and one of whom has accounting or related financial management expertise.
As noted above, the members of our audit committee include Israel Berenstein, Tomer Etzyoni and Tali Dinar, each of whom is “independent,” as such term is defined in under Nasdaq listing rules and Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act. All members of our audit committee meet the requirements for financial literacy under the Nasdaq listing rules. Our board of directors has determined that Tali Dinar is an audit committee financial expert as defined by the SEC rules and has the requisite financial experience as defined by the Nasdaq listing rules.
CompensationCommittee
Our compensation committee is composed of Tali Dinar, Tomer Etzyoni and Israel Berenstein. Israel Berenstein is the chairman of the compensation committee.
CompaniesLaw Requirements
Under the Companies Law, the board of directors of any public company must establish a compensation committee.
Our compensation committee acts pursuant to a written charter. Our compensation committee complies with the provisions of the Companies Law, the regulations promulgated thereunder, and our amended and restated articles of association, on all aspects referring to its independence, authorities and practice. Our compensation committee follows home country practice as opposed to complying with the compensation committee membership and charter requirements prescribed under the Nasdaq listing rules.
NasdaqListing Rules for Compensation Committee
Under the corporate governance rules of Nasdaq, we are required to maintain a compensation committee consisting of at least two independent directors.
Our board of directors has determined that each member of our compensation committee is independent under the corporate governance rules of Nasdaq, including the additional independence considerations applicable to the members of a compensation committee.
CompensationCommittee Role
Our compensation committee reviews and recommends to our board of directors: with respect to our executive officers’ and directors’: (1) annual base compensation (2) annual incentive bonus, including the specific goals and amounts; (3) equity compensation; (4) employment agreements, severance arrangements, and change in control agreements and provisions; (5) retirement grants and/or retirement bonuses; and (6) any other benefits, compensation, compensation policies or arrangements.
The duties of the compensation committee include the recommendation to the company’s board of directors of a policy regarding the terms of engagement of office holders, to which we refer as a compensation policy. Such policy must be adopted by the company’s board of directors, after considering the recommendations of the compensation committee. The compensation policy is then brought for approval by our shareholders, which requires the approval of a special majority. See “Item 6.C.- Board Practices - Fiduciary Duties and Approval of Related Party Transactions under Israeli law” for additional information. Under the Companies Law, the board of directors may adopt the compensation policy if it is not approved by the shareholders, provided that after the shareholders oppose the approval of such policy, the compensation committee and the board of directors revisit the matter and determine that adopting the compensation policy would be in the best interests of the company.
79
On July 17, 2024, our shareholders approved our new Compensation Policy, which unless amended and restated prior, shall remain in effect until July 16, 2027. The compensation policy must serve as the basis for decisions concerning the financial terms of employment or engagement of executive officers and directors, including exculpation, insurance, indemnification or any monetary payment or obligation of payment in respect of employment or engagement. The compensation policy must relate to certain factors, including advancement of the company’s objectives, the company’s business and its long-term strategy, and creation of appropriate incentives for office holders. It must also consider, among other things, the company’s risk management, size and the nature of its operations. The compensation policy must furthermore consider the following additional factors:
| ● | the<br> education, skills, expertise and accomplishments of the relevant officer holder; |
|---|---|
| ● | the<br> officer holder’s roles and responsibilities and prior compensation agreements with him or her; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | the<br> relationship between the cost of the terms of service of an office holder and the average median compensation of the other employees<br> of the company (including those employed through manpower companies), in particular the ratio between such cost to the average and<br> median salary of such employees of the company including the impact of disparities in salary upon work relationships in the company; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | if<br> the terms of employment include variable components the possibility of reducing variable compensation at the discretion of the board<br> of directors; and the possibility of setting a limit on the exercise value of non-cash variable compensation; and |

| --- | --- |
The compensation policy must also include the following principles:
| ● | with<br> the exception of office holders who report to the chief executive officer, a means of determining the variable components on the<br> basis of long-term performance and measurable criteria; provided that the company may determine that an immaterial part of the variable<br> components of the compensation package of an office holder shall be awarded based on non-measurable criteria, or if such amount is<br> not higher than three months’ salary per annum, taking into account such office holder’s contribution to the company; |
|---|---|
| ● | the<br> relationship between variable and fixed compensation, and the ceiling for the value of variable compensation at the time of payment,<br> or in the case of equity-based compensation, at the time of grant; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | the<br> conditions under which an officer holder would be required to repay compensation paid to him or her if it was later shown that the<br> data upon which such compensation was based was inaccurate and such data was restated in the company’s financial statements; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | the<br> minimum holding or vesting period for variable, equity-based compensation to be set in the terms of office or employment, as applicable,<br> while taking into consideration long-term incentives; and |
| --- | --- |
| ● | maximum<br> limits for severance compensation. |
| --- | --- |
The compensation policy must also consider appropriate incentives from a long-term perspective.
The compensation committee is responsible for: (1) recommending the compensation policy to a company’s board of directors for its approval (and subsequent approval by the shareholders); and (2) duties related to the compensation policy and to the compensation of a company’s office holders, including:
| ● | recommending<br> whether a compensation policy should continue in effect, if the then-current policy has a term of greater than three years (approval<br> of either a new compensation policy or the continuation of an existing compensation policy must in any case occur every three years); |
|---|---|
| ● | recommending<br> to the board of directors, periodic updates to the compensation policy; |
| --- | --- |
80
| ● | assessing<br> implementation of the compensation policy; |
|---|---|
| ● | administering<br> the Company’s clawback policy; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | determining<br> whether the terms of compensation of certain office holders of the company need not be brought to approval of the shareholders; and |

| --- | --- |
Our compensation policy is designed to promote our long-term goals, work plan and policy, retain, motivate and incentivize our directors and executive officers, while considering the risks that our activities involve, our size, the nature and scope of our activities and the contribution of an officer to the achievement of our goals and maximization of profits, and align the interests of our directors and executive officers with our long-term performance. To that end, a portion of an executive officer compensation package is targeted to reflect our short and long-term goals, as well as the executive officer’s individual performance. On the other hand, our compensation policy includes measures designed to reduce the executive officer’s incentives to take excessive risks that may harm us in the long-term, such as limits on the value of cash bonuses and equity-based compensation, limitations on the ratio between the variable and the total compensation of an executive officer and minimum vesting periods for equity-based compensation.
Our compensation policy also addresses our executive officer’s individual characteristics (such as his or her respective position, education, scope of responsibilities and contribution to the attainment of our goals) as the basis for compensation variation among our executive officers, and considers the internal ratios between compensation of our executive officers and directors and other employees. Pursuant to our compensation policy, the compensation that may be granted to an executive officer may include: base salary, annual bonuses, equity-based compensation, benefits and retirement and termination of service arrangements. All cash bonuses are limited to a maximum amount linked to the executive officer’s base salary. In addition, our compensation policy provides for maximum permitted ratios between the total variable (cash bonuses and equity based compensation) and non-variable (base salary) compensation components, in accordance with an officer’s respective position with the company.
An annual cash bonus may be awarded to executive officers upon the attainment of pre-set periodic objectives and individual targets. The annual cash bonus that may be granted to executive officers other than our chairman or Chief Executive Officer may be based entirely on a discretionary evaluation. Our Chief Executive Officer will be entitled to recommend performance objectives to such executive officers, and such performance objectives will be approved by our compensation committee (and, if required by law, by our board of directors).
The performance measurable objectives of our Chief Executive Officer will be determined annually by our compensation committee (and, if required by law, by our board of directors). A less significant portion of the Chief Executive Officer’s annual cash bonus may be based on a discretionary evaluation of the Chief Executive Officer’s respective overall performance by the compensation committee and the board of directors based on quantitative and qualitative criteria.
The equity-based compensation under our compensation policy for our executive officers (including members of our board of directors) is designed in a manner consistent with the underlying objectives in determining the base salary and the annual cash bonus, with its main objectives being to enhance the alignment between the executive officers’ interests with our long-term interests and those of our shareholders and to strengthen the retention and the motivation of executive officers in the long term. Our compensation policy provides for executive officer compensation in the form of share options or other equity-based awards, such as restricted shares and phantom, options, in accordance with our share incentive plan then in place. Share options granted to executive officers shall be subject to vesting periods in order to promote long-term retention of the awarded executive officers. The equity-based compensation shall be granted from time to time and be individually determined and awarded according to the performance, educational background, prior business experience, qualifications, role and the personal responsibilities of the executive officer.
81
In addition, our compensation policy contains compensation recovery provisions which allows us under certain conditions to recover bonuses paid in excess, enables our Chief Executive Officer to approve an immaterial change in the terms of employment of an executive officer (provided that the changes of the terms of employment are in accordance our compensation policy) and allows us to exculpate, indemnify and insure our executive officers and directors subject to certain limitations set forth thereto.
Following the SEC approval of Nasdaq’s proposed clawback listing standards, under Rule 10D-1, or the Clawback Listing Rules, which directed companies to adopt and comply with a written clawback policy, to disclose and file the policy as an exhibit to its annual reports, we have adopted as of October 2, 2023, a clawback policy as contemplated pursuant to the Clawback Listing Rules, and have filed as Exhibit 97 to this Annual Report.
Our compensation policy also provides for compensation to the members of our board of directors either: (i) in accordance with the amounts provided in the Companies Regulations (Rules Regarding the Compensation and Expenses of an External Director) of 2000, as amended by the Companies Regulations (Relief for Public Companies Traded in Stock Exchange Outside of Israel) of 2000, as such regulations may be amended from time to time; or (ii) in accordance with the amounts determined in our compensation policy.

InternalAuditor
Under the Companies Law, the board of directors of an Israeli public company must appoint an internal auditor nominated by the audit committee. The role of the internal auditor is to examine, among other things, whether a company’s actions comply with the law and proper business procedure. The audit committee is required to oversee the activities, and to assess the performance of the internal auditor as well as to review the internal auditor’s work plan. An internal auditor may not be an interested party or office holder, or a relative of any interested party or office holder, and may not be a member of the company’s independent accounting firm or its representative. The Companies Law defines an interested party as a holder of 5% or more of the outstanding shares or voting rights of a company, any person or entity that has the right to appoint at least one director or the general manager of the company or any person who serves as a director or as the general manager of a company. Daniel Shapira from Daniel Shapira Accountants was appointed by the board of directors on December 13, 2022, to serve as the Internal Auditor of the Company.
Remunerationof Directors
Under the Companies Law, remuneration of directors is subject to the approval of the compensation committee, thereafter by the board of directors and thereafter, unless exempted under the regulations promulgated under the Companies Law, by the general meeting of the shareholders. In case the remuneration of the directors is in accordance with regulations applicable to remuneration of the external directors then such remuneration shall be exempt from the approval of the general meeting. Where the director is also a controlling shareholder, the requirements for approval of transactions with controlling shareholders apply.

FiduciaryDuties and Approval of Related Party Transactions under Israeli Law
FiduciaryDuties of Office Holders
The Companies Law imposes a duty of care and a duty of loyalty on all office holders of a company. An office holder is defined in the Companies Law as a general manager, chief business manager, deputy general manager, vice general manager, any other person assuming the responsibilities of any of these positions regardless of such person’s title, a director, and any other manager directly subordinate to the general manager.
The duty of care requires an office holder to act with the level of care with which a reasonable office holder in the same position would have acted under the same circumstances. The duty of care of an office holder includes a duty to use reasonable means to obtain:
| ● | information<br> on the advisability of a given action brought for his approval or performed by him by virtue of his position; and |
|---|---|
| ● | all<br> other important information pertaining to these actions. |
| --- | --- |
The duty of loyalty of an office holder requires an office holder to act in good faith and for the benefit of the company, and includes a duty to:
| ● | refrain<br> from any conflict of interest between the performance of his duties in the company and his performance of his other duties or personal<br> affairs; |
|---|---|
| ● | refrain<br> from any action that is competitive with the company’s business; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | refrain<br> from exploiting any business opportunity of the company to receive a personal gain for himself or others; and |
| --- | --- |
| ● | disclose<br> to the company any information or documents relating to the company’s affairs which the office holder has received due to his<br> position as an office holder. |
| --- | --- |
RelatedParty Transactions
Under the Companies Law, we may approve an action by an office holder from which the office holder would otherwise have to refrain, as described above, if:
| ● | the<br> office holder acts in good faith and the act or its approval does not cause harm to the company; and |
|---|---|
| ● | the<br> office holder disclosed the nature of his or her interest in the transaction (including any significant fact or document) to the<br> company sufficient time before the company’s approval of such matter. |
| --- | --- |
Any such approval is subject to the terms of the Companies Law, setting forth, among other things, the appropriate bodies of the company required to provide such approval, and the methods of obtaining such approval.
Disclosureof Personal Interests of an Office Holder
The Companies Law requires that an office holder disclose to the company, promptly, and, in any event, not later than the board meeting at which the transaction is first discussed, any direct or indirect personal interest that he or she may have and all related material information known to him or her relating to any existing or proposed transaction by the company. A personal interest includes an interest of any person in an act or transaction of a company, including a personal interest of one’s relative or of a corporate body in which such person or a relative of such person is a 5% or greater shareholder, director, or general manager or in which such person has the right to appoint at least one director or the general manager, but excluding a personal interest stemming solely from one’s ownership of shares in the company. A personal interest includes the personal interest of a person for whom the office holder holds a voting proxy or the personal interest of the office holder with respect to the officer holder’s vote on behalf of a person for whom he or she holds a proxy even if such shareholder has no personal interest in the matter.
83
The Companies Law does not specify to whom within us nor the manner in which required disclosures are to be made. We require our office holders to make such disclosures to our board of directors.
Under the Companies Law, unless the articles of association of a company provide otherwise, a transaction with an office holder or with a third party in which the office holder has a personal interest, which is not an extraordinary transaction requires the approval of the board of directors or a committee authorized by the board of directors. If the transaction is an extraordinary transaction in which an office holder has a personal interest, first the audit committee and then the board of directors, in that order, must approve the transaction. Under specific circumstances, shareholder approval may also be required.
Under the Companies Law, an extraordinary transaction is a transaction:
| ● | not<br> in the ordinary course of business; |
|---|---|
| ● | not<br> on market terms; or |
| --- | --- |
| ● | that<br> is likely to have a material effect on the company’s profitability, assets or liabilities. |
| --- | --- |
Generally, a person who has a personal interest in a matter which is considered at a meeting of the board of directors or the audit committee may not be present at such a meeting, or vote on this matter, unless the chairman of the audit committee or board of directors (as applicable) determines that he or she should be present in order to present the transaction that is subject to approval. A director who has a personal interest in a transaction, which is considered at a meeting of the board of directors or the audit committee, may not be present at this meeting or vote on this matter, unless a majority of members of the board of directors or the audit committee, as the case may be, has a personal interest. If a majority of the board of directors has a personal interest, then shareholder approval is generally also required.
Disclosureof Personal Interests of a Controlling Shareholder
Under the Companies Law, certain disclosure requirements also apply to a controlling shareholder of a public company, in which a controlling shareholder has a personal interest. For these purposes, a controlling shareholder is any shareholder that has the ability to direct the company’s actions, including any shareholder holding 25% or more of the voting rights if no other shareholder owns more than 50% of the voting rights in the company. Two or more shareholders with a personal interest in the approval of the same transaction are deemed to be one shareholder. Extraordinary transactions with a controlling shareholder or in which a controlling shareholder has a personal interest, including a private placement in which a controlling shareholder has a personal interest, as well as transactions for the provision of services whether directly or indirectly by a controlling shareholder or his or her relative, or a company such controlling shareholder controls, and transactions concerning the terms of engagement and compensation of a controlling shareholder or a controlling shareholder’s relative, whether as an office holder or an employee, require the approval of (i) the audit committee or the compensation committee, as the case may be, (ii) the board of directors and (iii) a majority of the shares voted by the shareholders of the company participating and voting on the matter in a shareholders’ meeting. In addition, the shareholder approval must fulfill one of the following requirements:
| ● | at<br> least a majority of the shares held by shareholders who are not controlling shareholders and have no personal interest in the transaction<br> and are voting at the meeting must be voted in favor of approving the transaction, excluding abstentions; or |
|---|---|
| ● | the<br> shares voted by shareholders who and non-controlling shareholders and have no personal interest in the transaction who vote against<br> the transaction represent no more than 2% of the voting rights in the company. |
| --- | --- |
In addition, any extraordinary transaction with a controlling shareholder or in which a controlling shareholder has a personal interest with a term of more than three years requires the abovementioned approval every three years; however, such transactions not involving the receipt of services or compensation can be approved for a longer term, provided that the audit committee determines that such longer term is reasonable under the circumstances. In addition, transactions with a controlling shareholder or a controlling shareholder’s relative who serves as an executive officer in a company, directly or indirectly (including through a corporation under his control), involving the receipt of services by a company or their compensation can have a term of five years from the company’s initial public offering under certain circumstances.
84
The Companies Law requires that every shareholder that participates, in person, by proxy or by voting instrument, in a vote regarding a transaction with a controlling shareholder, must indicate in advance or in the ballot whether or not that shareholder has a personal interest in the vote in question. Failure to so indicate will result in the invalidation of that shareholder’s vote for purposes of the Special Majority Approval.
Approvalof the Compensation of Directors and Executive Officers
The compensation of, or an undertaking to indemnify, insure or exculpate, an office holder who is not a director requires the approval of the company’s compensation committee, followed by the approval of the company’s board of directors, and, if such compensation arrangement or an undertaking to indemnify, insure or exculpate is inconsistent with the company’s stated compensation policy, or if the said office holder is the chief executive officer of the company (subject to a number of specific exceptions), then such arrangement is subject to the approval of our shareholders, subject to the Special Majority Approval.
*Directors.*Under the Companies Law, the compensation of our directors requires the approval of our compensation committee, the subsequent approval of the board of directors and, unless exempted under the regulations promulgated under the Companies Law, the approval of the general meeting of our shareholders. If the compensation of our directors is inconsistent with our stated compensation policy, then, provided that those provisions that must be included in the compensation policy according to the Companies Law have been considered by the compensation committee and board of directors, shareholder approval by the Special Majority Approval will be required.
Executiveofficers other than the chief executive officer. The Companies Law requires the approval of the compensation of a public company’s executive officers (other than the chief executive officer and who does not also serve as a director) in the following order: (i) the compensation committee, (ii) the company’s board of directors, and (iii) only if such compensation arrangement is inconsistent with the company’s stated compensation policy, the company’s shareholders by the Special Majority Approval. However, if the shareholders of the company do not approve a compensation arrangement with a non-director executive officer that is inconsistent with the company’s stated compensation policy, the compensation committee and board of directors may override the shareholders’ decision if each of the compensation committee and the board of directors provide detailed reasons for their decision.
An amendment to an existing compensation arrangement with a non-director executive officer requires only the approval of the compensation committee, if the compensation committee determines that the amendment is immaterial. However, if such non-director executive officer is subordinate to the chief executive officer, an immaterial amendment to an existing compensation arrangement shall not require the approval of the compensation committee if (i) such amendment is approved by the chief executive officer, (ii) the company’s compensation policy allows for such immaterial amendments to be approved by the chief executive officer and (iii) the engagement terms are consistent with the company’s compensation policy.
Chiefexecutive officer. Under the Companies Law, the compensation of a public company’s chief executive officer is required to be in the following order approved by: (i) the company’s compensation committee; (ii) the company’s board of directors, and (iii) the company’s shareholders by a Special Majority Approval (provided that with respect to a Chief Executive Officer who is also a director of the company, the approval of the shareholders by a simple majority. is required). However, if the shareholders of the company do not approve the compensation arrangement with the chief executive officer, the compensation committee and board of directors may override the shareholders’ decision if each of the compensation committee and the board of directors provides detailed reasons for their decision, provided that the chief executive officer is not also a director of the company. In the case of a new chief executive officer, the compensation committee may exempt the engagement terms of a candidate to serve as the chief executive officer from shareholders’ approval, if the compensation committee determines that the compensation arrangement is consistent with the company’s stated compensation policy, that the chief executive officer did not have on the date of his appointment or during the two-year period preceding his appointment, an “affiliation” (including an employment relationship, a business or professional relationship or control) with the company or a controlling shareholder of the company or a relative thereof) and that subjecting the approval to a shareholder vote would impede the company’s ability to attain the candidate to serve as the company’s chief executive officer (and provide detailed reasons for the latter). However, if the chief executive officer candidate will serve as a member of the board of directors, such candidate’s compensation terms as chief executive officer must be approved in accordance with the rules applicable to approval of compensation of directors.
85
The approval of each of the compensation committee and the board of directors, with regard to the office holders and directors above, must be in accordance with the company’s stated compensation policy; however, under special circumstances, the compensation committee and the board of directors may approve compensation terms of a chief executive officer that are inconsistent with the company’s compensation policy provided that they have considered those provisions that must be included in the compensation policy according to the Companies Law and that shareholder approval was obtained by the Special Majority Approval.
Dutiesof Shareholders
Under the Companies Law, a shareholder has a duty to refrain from abusing his power in the company and to act in good faith and in a customary manner in exercising his rights and performing his obligations toward the company and other shareholders, including, among other things, in voting at general meetings of shareholders (and at shareholder class meetings) on the following matters:
| ● | amendment<br> of the articles of association; |
|---|---|
| ● | increase<br> in the company’s authorized share capital; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | merger;<br> and |
| --- | --- |
| ● | the<br> approval of related party transactions and acts of office holders that require shareholder approval. |
| --- | --- |
A shareholder also has a general duty to refrain from oppressing other shareholders. The remedies generally available upon a breach of contract will also apply to a breach of the above-mentioned duties, and in the event of oppression of other shareholders, additional remedies are available to the injured shareholder.
In addition, any controlling shareholder, any shareholder that knows that its vote can determine the outcome of a shareholder vote and any shareholder that, under a company’s articles of association, has the power to appoint or prevent the appointment of an office holder, or has another power with respect to a company, is under a duty to act with fairness towards the company. The Companies Law does not describe the substance of this duty except to state that the remedies generally available upon a breach of contract will also apply in the event of a breach of the duty to act with fairness, taking the shareholder’s position in the company into account.
Exculpation,Insurance and Indemnification of Directors and Officers
Insurance
As permitted under the Companies Law, a company may obtain insurance for any of its office holders against the following liabilities incurred due to acts he or she performed as an office holder, if and to the extent provided for in the company’s articles of association:
| ● | breach<br> of his or her duty of care to the company or to a third party, including a breach arises out of the negligent conduct of the office<br> holder; |
|---|---|
| ● | a<br> breach of his or her duty of loyalty to the company, provided that the office holder acted in good faith and had reasonable cause<br> to assume that his or her act would not prejudice the company’s interests; and |
| --- | --- |
| ● | a<br> financial liability imposed upon him or her in favor of a third party. |
| --- | --- |
86
| ● | financial<br> liability imposed on the office holder in favor of a third-party harmed by a breach in an administrative proceeding, pursuant to<br> certain provisions of the Israeli Securities Law; |
|---|---|
| ● | expenses<br> incurred or to be incurred by an office holder in connection with an administrative proceeding, instituted against him or her, pursuant<br> to certain provisions of the Israeli Securities Law, including reasonable litigation expenses, and including attorneys’ fees;<br> and |
| --- | --- |
| ● | any<br> other event in respect of which it is permitted and/or shall be permitted by Law to insure the liability of an officeholder. |
| --- | --- |
Our amended and restated articles of association provide that we may incuse an office holder against the abovementioned liabilities. Accordingly, we maintain directors’ and officers’ liability insurance, providing total coverage of $5 million for the benefit of all of our directors and officers, in respect of which we expect to pay a seventeen-month premium of $306 thousand, which expires in July 22, 2026.
Indemnification
The Companies Law and the Israeli Securities Law, 5728-1968, or the Securities Law, provide that a company may indemnify an office holder against the following liabilities and expenses incurred for acts performed by him or her as an office holder, either pursuant to an undertaking made in advance of an event or following an event, provided its articles of association include a provision authorizing such indemnification:
| ● | a<br> financial liability imposed on him or her in favor of another person by any judgment concerning an act performed in his or her capacity<br> as an office holder, including a settlement or arbitrator’s award approved by a court; |
|---|---|
| ● | reasonable<br> litigation expenses, including attorneys’ fees, expended by the office holder (a) as a result of an investigation or proceeding<br> instituted against him or her by an authority authorized to conduct such investigation or proceeding, provided that (1) no indictment<br> (as defined in the Companies Law) was filed against such office holder as a result of such investigation or proceeding; and (2) no<br> financial liability as a substitute for the criminal proceeding (as defined in the Companies Law) was imposed upon him or her as<br> a result of such investigation or proceeding, or, if such financial liability was imposed, it was imposed with respect to an offense<br> that does not require proof of criminal intent; or (b) in connection with a monetary sanction; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | reasonable<br> litigation expenses, including attorneys’ fees, expended by the office holder or imposed on him or her by a court: (1) in proceedings<br> that the company institutes, or that another person institutes on the company’s behalf, against him or her; (2) in a criminal<br> proceedings of which he or she was acquitted; or (3) as a result of a conviction for a crime that does not require proof of criminal<br> intent; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | expenses<br> incurred by an office holder in connection with an administrative procedure under the Securities Law, including reasonable litigation<br> expenses and reasonable attorneys’ fees. An “Administrative Procedure” is defined as a procedure pursuant to chapters<br> H3 (Monetary Sanction by the Israeli Securities Authority), H4 (Administrative Enforcement Procedures of the Administrative Enforcement<br> Committee) or I1 (Arrangement to prevent Procedures or Interruption of procedures subject to conditions) to the Securities Law; and |
| --- | --- |
| ● | any<br> other obligation or expense in respect of which it is permitted or will be permitted under the Companies Law, to indemnify an officer<br> or director, subject to and in accordance with all applicable law. |
| --- | --- |
87
The Companies Law also permits a company to undertake in advance to indemnify an office holder, provided that if such indemnification relates to financial liability imposed on him or her, as described above, then the undertaking should be limited and shall detail the following foreseen events and amount or criterion:
| ● | to<br> events that in the opinion of the board of directors can be foreseen based on the company’s activities at the time that the<br> undertaking to indemnify is made; and |
|---|---|
| ● | in<br> amount or criterion determined by the board of directors, at the time of the giving of such undertaking to indemnify, to be reasonable<br> under the circumstances. |
| --- | --- |
We have entered into our standard form of indemnification agreement, the form of which is filed as an exhibit to this Annual Report, with each of our directors and with all members of our senior management. Each such indemnification agreement provides the indemnified person with indemnification to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law and up to a certain amount, and to the extent that these liabilities are not covered by directors’ and officers’ insurance or other indemnification agreement.
Exculpation
Under the Companies Law, an Israeli company may not exculpate an office holder from liability for a breach of his or her duty of loyalty, but may exculpate in advance an office holder from his or her liability to the company, in whole or in part, for damages caused to the company as a result of a breach of his or her duty of care (other than in relation to distributions), but only if a provision authorizing such exculpation is included in its articles of association. Our amended and restated articles of association provide that we may exculpate, in whole or in part, any office holder from liability to us for damages caused to the company as a result of a breach of his or her duty of care, but prohibit an exculpation from liability arising from a company’s transaction in which our controlling shareholder or officer has a personal interest. Subject to the aforesaid limitations, under the indemnification agreements, we exculpate and release our office holders from any and all liability to us related to any breach by them of their duty of care to us to the fullest extent permitted by law. An Israeli company may not exculpate in advance a director from liability arising from a breach of his or her duty of care in connection with a prohibited dividend or distribution to shareholders.
Limitations
The Companies Law provides that we may not exculpate or indemnify an office holder nor enter into an insurance contract that would provide coverage for any liability incurred as a result of any of the following: (1) a breach by the office holder of his or her duty of loyalty except for indemnification and insurance for a breach of loyalty to the extent the office holder acted in good faith and had a reasonable basis to believe that the act would not prejudice us; (2) a breach by the office holder of his or her duty of care if the breach was carried out intentionally or recklessly (as opposed to merely negligently); (3) any act or omission committed with the intent to derive an illegal personal benefit; or (4) any fine, monetary sanction, penalty or forfeit levied against the office holder.
Under the Companies Law, exculpation, indemnification and insurance of office holders in a public company must be approved by the compensation committee and the board of directors and, with respect to directors, the chief executive officer or controlling shareholders, their relatives and third parties in which controlling shareholders have a personal interest, also by the shareholders. However, under regulations promulgated under the Companies Law, the insurance of office holders shall not require shareholder approval and may be approved by only the compensation committee if the engagement terms are determined in accordance with the company’s compensation policy, which was approved by the shareholders by the same special majority required to approve a compensation policy, provided that the insurance policy is on market terms and the insurance policy is not likely to materially impact the company’s profitability, assets, or obligations.
88
Our amended and restated articles of association permit us to exculpate (subject to the aforesaid limitation), indemnify and insure our office holders to the fullest extent permitted or to be permitted by the Companies Law.
The foregoing descriptions summarize the material aspects and practices of our board of directors. For additional details, we also refer you to the full text of the Companies Law, as well as of our amended and restated articles of association, which are filed as exhibits to this Annual Report and are incorporated herein by reference.
As of the date of this Annual Report, no claims for directors’ and officers’ liability insurance have been filed under this policy and we are not aware of any pending or threatened litigation or proceeding involving any of our office holders, including our directors, in which indemnification is sought.
D.Employees
As of the date of this Annual Report, we had 33 full-time employees and 5 part-time employee. None of our employees are members of a union or subject to the terms of a collective bargaining agreement.
None of our employees are members of a union or subject to the terms of a collective bargaining agreement. However, in Israel, we are subject to certain Israeli Labor laws, regulations and national labor court precedent rulings, as well as certain provisions of collective bargaining agreements applicable to us by virtue of extension orders issued in accordance with relevant labor laws by the Israeli Industry and Economy Office, and which apply such agreement provisions to our employees even though they are not part of a union that has signed a collective bargaining agreement. We have never experienced labor related work stoppages or strikes and believe that our relations with our employees are good.
All of our employment and consulting agreements include the employee’s and consultant’s undertaking with respect to assignment to us of intellectual property rights developed in the course of employment and confidentiality provisions. The enforceability of such provisions may be limited by Israeli law.

Ordinary Shares issuable pursuant to outstanding options or warrants to purchase Ordinary Shares that are exercisable, or securities that are convertible into Ordinary Shares, within 60 days after March 27, 2026, are deemed outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of the person holding the options, warrants or convertible securities, but are not deemed outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person.

Significant Changes in Percentage Ownershipby Major Shareholders
Invest Pro Shukai Hon Ltd., L.I.A. Pure Capital Ltd. and Capitalink Ltd. have each previously filed a Schedule 13G to the SEC on February 11, 2026, January 28, 2026, and January 28, 2026, reporting beneficial ownership of 9.99% each. To our knowledge, due to, among other reasons, recent share issuances in the Company, their holdings have been diluted and they each no longer have beneficial ownership of 5% or more of our Ordinary Shares. Each of Jeffrey J. Conroy, XYLO Technologies Ltd, Viki Hakmon were previously major shareholders of the Company during the past three years, however their holdings have been diluted and/or disposed and as a result they each are no longer major shareholders of the Company.
To our knowledge, other than these changes and as disclosed in the table above and in this Annual Report, there has been no significant change in the percentage ownership held by any major shareholder during the past three years.
RecordHolders
As of March 27, 2026, there were 43 registered shareholders of our Ordinary Shares. This number is not representative of the number of beneficial holders of our shares nor is it representative of where such beneficial holders reside, since many of these shares were held of record by brokers or other nominees.
We are not controlled by another corporation, by any foreign government or by any natural or legal persons except as set forth herein, and there are no arrangements known to us which would result in a change in our control at a subsequent date.

IsraeliTax Considerations and Government Programs
The following is a description of the material Israeli income tax consequences concerning the acquisition, ownership and disposition of our Ordinary Shares. The following also contains a description of material relevant provisions of the current Israeli income tax structure applicable to companies in Israel, with reference to its effect on us. This summary does not discuss all the aspects of Israeli tax law that may be relevant to a particular investor in light of his or her personal investment circumstances or to some types of investors subject to special treatment under Israeli law. Examples of such investors include residents of Israel or traders in securities who are subject to special tax regimes not covered in this discussion. To the extent that the discussion is based on tax legislation which has not been subject to judicial or administrative interpretation, there can be no assurance that the applicable tax authorities or the courts will accept the views expressed in the discussion in question. The discussion below is subject to change, including due to amendments under Israeli law or changes to the applicable judicial or administrative interpretations of Israeli law, which change could affect the tax consequences described below. The discussion is not intended, and should not be taken, as legal or professional tax advice and is not exhaustive of all possible tax considerations.
The following description is not intended to constitute a complete analysis of all tax consequences relating to the acquisition, ownership or disposition of our Ordinary Shares. Shareholders should consult their own tax advisors concerning the tax consequences of their particular situation, as well as any tax consequences that may arise under the laws of any state, local, foreign or other taxing jurisdiction.
GeneralCorporate Tax Structure in Israel
Israeli companies are generally subject to corporate tax, currently at the rate of 23%. However, the effective tax rate payable by a company that derives income from a Preferred Enterprise or Preferred Technological Enterprise (as discussed below) may be considerably less.
Capital gains derived by an Israeli resident company are subject to tax at the regular corporate tax rate. Under Israeli tax legislation, a corporation will be considered as an “Israeli resident company” if it meets one of the following criteria: (i) it was incorporated in Israel; or (ii) the control and management of its business are exercised in Israel.
Lawfor the Encouragement of Industry (Taxes), 5729-1969
The Law for the Encouragement of Industry (Taxes), 5729-1969, generally referred to as the Industry Encouragement Law, provides several tax benefits for “Industrial Companies.”
The Industry Encouragement Law defines an “Industrial Company” as an Israeli resident-company incorporated in Israel, which has 90% or more of its income in any tax year, other than income from certain government loans, derived from an “Industrial Enterprise” owned by it and located in Israel or in the “Area”, in accordance with the definition under section 3A of the Israeli Income Tax Ordinance (New Version) 1961, referred to as the Ordinance. An “Industrial Enterprise” is defined as an enterprise which is held by an Industrial Company whose principal activity in a given tax year is industrial production.
95
The following corporate tax benefits, among others, are available to Industrial Companies:
| ● | amortization<br> of the cost to purchase a patent, rights to use a patent or know-how, that were purchased in good faith and are used for the development<br> or advancement of the Industrial Enterprise, over an eight-year period, commencing on the year in which such rights were first exercised; |
|---|---|
| ● | under<br> limited conditions, an election to file consolidated tax returns with related Israeli Industrial Companies; and |
| --- | --- |
| ● | expenses<br> related to a public offering are deductible in equal amounts over three years commencing on the year of the offering. |
| --- | --- |
Eligibility for benefits under the Industry Encouragement Law is not contingent upon approval of any governmental authority.
Lawfor the Encouragement of Capital Investments, 5719-1959
The Law for the Encouragement of Capital Investments, 5719-1959, generally referred to as the Investment Law, provides certain incentives for capital investments in production facilities (or other eligible assets).
The Investment Law was significantly amended effective as of January 1, 2011, or the 2011 Amendment, and as of January 1, 2017, or the 2017 Amendment. The 2011 Amendment introduced new benefits to replace those granted in accordance with the provisions of the Investment Law in effect prior to the 2011 Amendment. The 2017 Amendment introduces new benefits for Technological Enterprises, alongside the existing tax benefits.
Taxbenefits under the 2011 Amendment
The 2011 Amendment canceled the availability of the benefits granted under the Investment Law prior to 2011 and, instead, introduced new benefits for income generated by a “Preferred Company” through its “Preferred Enterprise” (as such terms are defined in the Investment Law) as of January 1, 2011. The definition of a Preferred Company includes a company incorporated in Israel that is not fully owned by a governmental entity, and that has, among other things, Preferred Enterprise status and is controlled and managed from Israel. Pursuant to the 2011 Amendment, a Preferred Company is entitled to a reduced corporate tax rate of 16% with respect to its income derived from its Preferred Enterprise, unless the Preferred Enterprise is located in a specified development zone, in which case the rate will be 7.5%. Income derived by a Preferred Company from a “Special Preferred Enterprise” (as such term is defined in the Investment Law) would be entitled, during a benefits period of 10 years, to further reduced tax rates of 8%, or 5% if the Special Preferred Enterprise is located in a certain development zone.
Dividends distributed from income which is attributed to a “Preferred Enterprise” or a “Special Preferred Enterprise” should generally be subject to withholding tax at source at the following rates: (i) Israeli resident corporations - 0%, (although, if such dividends are subsequently distributed to individuals or a non-Israeli company the below rates detailed in sub sections (ii) and (iii) shall apply), (ii) Israeli resident individuals - 20% and (iii) non-Israeli residents (individuals and corporations) - subject to the receipt in advance of a valid certificate from the ITA allowing for a reduced tax rate, 20%, or such lower rate as may be provided under the provisions of any applicable double tax treaty.
We currently do not intend to implement the 2011 Amendment.
Taxbenefits under the 2017 Amendment
The 2017 Amendment was enacted as part of the Economic Efficiency Law that was published on December 29, 2016, and is effective as of January 1, 2017. The 2017 Amendment provided new tax benefits for two types of “Technological Enterprises,” as described below, and is in addition to the other existing tax beneficial programs under the Investment Law.
96
The 2017 Amendment provides that a technology company satisfying certain conditions should qualify as a Preferred Technological Enterprise, or PTE, and thereby enjoy a reduced corporate tax rate of 12% on income that qualifies as “Preferred Technological Income”, as defined in the Investment Law. The tax rate is further reduced to 7.5% for a PTE located in development zone “A”. In addition, a PTE will enjoy a reduced corporate tax rate of 12% on capital gain derived from the sale of certain “Benefited Intangible Assets” (as defined in the Investment Law) to a related foreign company if the Benefited Intangible Assets were acquired from a foreign company on or after January 1, 2017 for at least NIS 200 million, and the sale received prior approval from the National Authority for Technological Innovation previously known as the Israeli Office of the Chief Scientist), to which we refer as IIA.
The 2017 Amendment further provides that a technology company satisfying certain conditions (including a group turnover of at least NIS 10 billion) should qualify as a “Special Preferred Technological Enterprise” and will thereby enjoy a reduced corporate tax rate of 6% on “Preferred Technological Income” regardless of the company’s geographic location within Israel. In addition, a Special Preferred Technological Enterprise should enjoy a reduced corporate tax rate of 6% on capital gain derived from the sale of certain “Benefited Intangible Assets” to a related foreign company if the Benefited Intangible Assets were either developed by the Special Preferred Technological Enterprise or acquired from a foreign company on or after January 1, 2017, and the sale received prior approval from IIA. A Special Preferred Technological Enterprise that acquires Benefited Intangible Assets from a foreign company for more than NIS 500 million should be eligible for these benefits for at least ten years, subject to certain approvals as specified in the Investment Law.
Dividends distributed out of Preferred Technological Income to Israeli shareholders by a PTE or a Special Preferred Technological Enterprise, paid out of Preferred Technological Income, should generally be subject to withholding tax at source at the rate of 20% (in the case of non-Israeli shareholders, subject to the receipt in advance of a valid certificate from the ITA allowing for a reduced tax rate, 20%, or such lower rate as may be provided in an applicable tax treaty). However, if such dividends are paid to an Israeli company, no tax is generally required to be withheld (although, if such dividends are subsequently distributed to individuals or a non-Israeli company, the aforesaid should apply). If such dividends are distributed to a foreign company that holds solely or together with other foreign companies 90% or more in the Israeli company and other conditions are met, the withholding tax rate should be 4% (or such lower rate as may be provided in an applicable tax treaty, in either case, subject to the receipt in advance of a valid certificate from the ITA allowing for such reduced tax rate).
We are examining the potential impact of the 2017 Amendment and the degree to which we may qualify as a PTE, the amount of Preferred Technological Income that we may have and other benefits that we may receive from the 2017 Amendment in the future.
Taxationof our Shareholders
Israeli law generally imposes a capital gains tax on the sale of any capital assets by residents of Israel, as defined for Israeli tax purposes, and on the sale of assets located in Israel, including shares of Israeli companies, by both residents and non-residents of Israel unless a specific exemption is available or a tax treaty between Israel and the seller’s country of residence provides otherwise. The Tax Ordinance distinguishes between real capital gain and inflationary surplus. The inflationary surplus is a portion of the total capital gain equivalent to the increase of the relevant asset’s tax basis attributable to an increase in the Israeli consumer price index or, in certain circumstances, a foreign currency exchange rate, between the date of purchase and the date of disposition. Inflationary surplus is not currently subject to tax in Israel. The real capital gain is the excess of the total capital gain over the inflationary surplus.
97
CapitalGains Taxes Applicable to Non-Israeli Resident Shareholders. A non-Israeli resident (whether an individual or a corporation) who derives capital gains from the sale of shares in an Israeli resident company purchased upon or after the registration of the shares on the TASE or on a regulated market outside of Israel (such as Nasdaq) should be exempt from Israeli tax unless the capital gain derived from the sale of shares was attributed to a permanent establishment that the non-resident maintains in Israel. However, a non-Israeli “body of persons” (as defined under the Tax Ordinance, which includes corporate entities, partnerships and other entities) will not be entitled to the foregoing exemption if Israeli residents: (i) have a controlling interest of more than 25% in such non-Israeli entity or (ii) are the beneficiaries of, or are entitled to, 25% or more of the revenues or profits of such non-Israeli entity, both, whether directly or indirectly. In addition, such exemption is not applicable to a person whose gains from selling or otherwise disposing of the shares are deemed business income.
If not exempt, a non-Israeli resident shareholder would generally be subject to tax on capital gain at the ordinary corporate tax rate as specified in section 126 of the Tax Ordinance (23% in 2025), if generated by a company, or at a marginal tax rate according to section 121 of the Tax Ordinance but up to a rate of 25%, if generated by an individual, or 30%, if generated by an individual who is a “substantial shareholder” (as defined under the Tax Ordinance), at the time of sale or at any time during the preceding 12-month period (or if the shareholder claims a deduction for interest and linkage differences expenses in connection with the purchase and holding of such shares). A “substantial shareholder” is generally a person who alone or together with such person’s relative or another person who collaborates with such person on a permanent basis, holds, directly or indirectly, at least 10% of any of the “means of control” of the corporation. “Means of control” generally include, among others, the right to vote, receive profits, nominate a director or an executive officer, receive assets upon liquidation, or order someone who holds any of the aforesaid rights how to act, regardless of the source of such right. Individual and corporate shareholders dealing in securities in Israel are taxed at the tax rates applicable to business income (a corporate tax rate for a corporation as specified in section 126 of the Tax Ordinance (23% in 2025) and a marginal tax rate (up to 47% for an individual in 2025) as specified in section 121 of the Tax Ordinance (excluding excess tax as discussed below)) unless contrary provisions in a relevant tax treaty apply.
Additionally, a sale of securities by a non-Israeli resident may be exempt from Israeli capital gains tax under the provisions of an applicable tax treaty between Israel and the shareholder’s country of residence. For example, under Convention Between the Government of the United States of America and the Government of the State of Israel with respect to Taxes on Income, as amended, or the United States-Israel Tax Treaty, the sale, exchange or other disposition of shares by a shareholder who is a United States resident (for purposes of the treaty) holding the shares as a capital asset and is entitled to claim the benefits afforded to such a resident by the United States-Israel Tax Treaty, or a Treaty U.S. Resident, is generally exempt from Israeli capital gains tax unless: (i) the capital gain arising from such sale, exchange or disposition is attributed to real estate located in Israel; (ii) the capital gain arising from such sale, exchange or disposition is attributed to royalties; (iii) the capital gain arising from the such sale, exchange or disposition is attributed to a permanent establishment that the shareholder maintains in Israel; (iv) such Treaty U.S. Resident holds, directly or indirectly, shares representing 10% or more of the voting capital of the company during any part of the 12-month period preceding the disposition, subject to certain conditions; or (v) such Treaty U.S. Resident is an individual and was present in Israel for a period or periods aggregating to 183 days or more during the relevant taxable year. In each case, the sale, exchange or disposition of our ordinary shares would be subject to Israeli tax, to the extent applicable.
Regardless of whether our non-Israeli shareholders may be liable for Israeli capital gains tax on the sale of their Ordinary Shares, the payment of the consideration may be subject to the withholding of Israeli tax at source. Shareholders may be required to demonstrate that they are exempt from tax on their capital gains in order to avoid withholding at source at the time of sale. Specifically, in transactions involving a sale of all of the shares of an Israeli resident company, in the form of a merger or otherwise, the ITA may require from shareholders who are not liable for Israeli tax to sign declarations in forms specified by this authority or obtain a specific exemption from the ITA to confirm their status as non-Israeli tax residents, and, in the absence of such declarations or exemptions, may require the purchaser of the shares to withhold Israeli taxes at source.
98
CapitalGains Taxes Applicable to Israeli Resident Shareholders. An Israeli resident will generally be subject to a capital gains tax as an individual on any real capital gain at the rate of 25%. However, where an individual shareholder claims a deduction for interest expenditures or he is a “substantial shareholder” at the time of the sale or at any time during the preceding twelve months period, such gain will be taxed at the rate of 30%. Individual holders dealing in securities in Israel for whom the income from the sale of securities is considered “business income,” as defined in section 2(1) of the Ordinance, are taxed at the marginal tax rates applicable to business income (up to 47% in 2025 excluding, excess tax, if applicable, as described below).
An Israeli resident corporation that derives capital gains from the sale of shares of an Israeli resident company will generally be subject to tax on the real capital gain generated on such sale at the corporate tax rate of 23%.
Taxationof Non-Israeli Shareholders on Receipt of Dividends. Non-Israeli residents (whether individuals or corporations) are generally subject to Israeli income tax on the receipt of dividends paid on our Ordinary Shares at the rate of 25%, which tax will be withheld at source, unless relief is provided in a treaty between Israel and the shareholder’s country of residence (provided that a certificate from the ITA allowing for a reduced withholding tax rate or a tax exemption is obtained in advance). With respect to a person who is a “substantial shareholder” (as detailed above) at the time of receiving the dividend or at any time during the preceding twelve months, the applicable tax rate is 30%. Dividends paid on publicly traded shares, like our Ordinary Shares, to non-Israeli residents, are generally subject to Israeli withholding tax at a rate of 25%, so long as the shares are registered with a nominee company (whether or not the recipient is a substantial shareholder), unless a lower rate is provided under an applicable tax treaty (provided that a certificate from the ITA allowing for a reduced withholding tax rate is obtained in advance). However, subject to the receipt in advance of a valid certificate from the ITA allowing for a reduced withholding tax rate, a distribution of dividends to non-Israeli residents is generally subject to withholding tax at source at a rate of 20% if the dividend is distributed from income attributed to a Preferred Enterprise or PTE, unless a reduced tax rate is provided under an applicable tax treaty. For example, under the United States-Israel Tax Treaty and subject to the eligibility to the benefits under such treaty, the maximum rate of tax withheld at source in Israel on dividends paid to a holder of our Ordinary Shares who is a Treaty U.S. Resident is 25%. However, generally, the maximum rate of withholding tax on dividends, not generated by our Preferred Enterprise or PTE, that are paid to a United States corporation holding 10% or more of the outstanding voting capital throughout the tax year in which the dividend is distributed as well as during the previous tax year, is 12.5%, provided that not more than 25% of the gross income for such preceding year consists of certain types of dividends and interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, dividends distributed from income attributed to a Preferred Enterprise or PTE are not entitled to such reduction under the tax treaty but are subject to a withholding tax rate of 20% for a shareholder that is a U.S. corporation, provided that the condition related to our gross income for the previous year (as set forth in the previous sentence) is met. The aforementioned rates under the United States-Israel Tax Treaty would not apply if the dividend income is derived through a permanent establishment of the U.S. resident in Israel. If the dividend is attributable partly to income derived from a Preferred Enterprise or PTE, and partly to other sources of income, the withholding rate will be a blended rate reflecting the relative portions of the two types of income. U.S. residents who are subject to Israeli withholding tax on a dividend may be entitled to a credit or deduction for United States federal income tax purposes in the amount of the taxes withheld, subject to detailed rules contained in the Code. We cannot assure you that we will designate the profits that we may distribute in a way that will reduce shareholders’ tax liability.
A non-Israeli resident who receives dividends from which tax was withheld is generally exempt from the obligation to file tax returns in Israel with respect to such income, provided that (i) such income was not generated from business conducted in Israel by the taxpayer, (ii) the taxpayer has no other taxable sources of income in Israel with respect to which a tax return is required to be filed, and (iii) the taxpayer is not obligated to pay excess tax (as further explained below).
Taxationof Israeli Shareholders on Receipt of Dividends. An Israeli resident individual is generally subject to Israeli income tax on the receipt of dividends paid on our ordinary shares at the rate of 25%. With respect to a person who is a “substantial shareholder” at the time of receiving the dividend or on any time during the preceding twelve months, the applicable tax rate is 30%. Such dividends are generally subject to Israeli withholding tax at a rate of 25% if the shares are registered with a nominee company (whether the recipient is a substantial shareholder or not). If the recipient of the dividend is an Israeli resident corporation such dividend income will be exempt from Israeli corporate tax provided the income from which such dividend is distributed was derived or accrued within Israel and was received directly or indirectly from another corporation that is liable to Israeli corporate tax (although, if such dividends are subsequently distributed to Israeli individuals or non-Israeli shareholders, the above shall apply). An exempt trust fund, pension fund or other entity that is exempt from tax under Section 9(2) or Section 129(C)(a)(1) of the Ordinance is exempt from tax on dividend.
99
ExcessTax
Individuals who are subject to tax in Israel (whether any such individual is an Israeli resident or non-Israeli resident) are also subject to an additional tax at a rate of 3% on annual income exceeding NIS 721,560 for 2025 (which amount is generally linked to the annual change in the Israeli consumer price index (with the exception that based on Israeli new legislation such amount, and certain other statutory amounts will not be linked to the Israeli consumer price index for the years 2025-2027) , including, but not limited to, dividends, interest and capital gain. According to new legislation, in effect as of January 1, 2025, an additional 2% excess tax is imposed on Capital-Sourced Income (defined as income from any source other than employment income, business income or income from “personal effort”), to the extent that the Individual’s Capital Sourced Income exceeds the specified threshold of NIS 721,560 (and regardless of the employment/business income amount of such individual). This new excess tax applies, among other things, to income from capital gains, dividends, interest, rental income, or the sale of real property.
Estateand Gift Tax
Israeli tax law presently does not impose estate or gift taxes.
U.S.Federal Income Tax Considerations
THE FOLLOWING SUMMARY IS INCLUDED HEREIN FOR GENERAL INFORMATION AND IS NOT INTENDED TO BE, AND SHOULD NOT BE CONSIDERED TO BE, LEGAL OR TAX ADVICE. EACH U.S. HOLDER SHOULD CONSULT WITH HIS OR HER OWN TAX ADVISOR AS TO THE PARTICULAR U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE PURCHASE, OWNERSHIP AND SALE OF ORDINARY SHARES, the Warrants, and the Ordinary Shares issued or issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, INCLUDING THE EFFECTS OF APPLICABLE STATE, LOCAL, FOREIGN OR OTHER TAX LAWS AND POSSIBLE CHANGES IN THE TAX LAWS.
Subject to the limitations described in the next paragraph, the following discussion summarizes the material U.S. federal income tax consequences to a “U.S. Holder” arising from the purchase, ownership and sale of the Ordinary Shares, the Warrants, and the Ordinary Shares issued or issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, collectively, the “securities”. For this purpose, a “U.S. Holder” is a holder of Ordinary Shares that is: (1) an individual citizen or resident of the United States, including an alien individual who is a lawful permanent resident of the United States or meets the substantial presence residency test under U.S. federal income tax laws; (2) a corporation (or entity treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) or a partnership (other than a partnership that is not treated as a U.S. person under any applicable U.S. Treasury regulations) created or organized under the laws of the United States or the District of Columbia or any political subdivision thereof; (3) an estate, the income of which is includable in gross income for U.S. federal income tax purposes regardless of source; (4) a trust if a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of the trust and one or more U.S. persons have authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust; or (5) a trust that has a valid election in effect to be treated as a U.S. person to the extent provided in U.S. Treasury regulations.
This summary is for general information purposes only and does not purport to be a comprehensive description of all of the U.S. federal income tax considerations that may be relevant to a decision to purchase our securities. This summary generally considers only U.S. Holders that will own our securities as capital assets. Except to the limited extent discussed below, this summary does not consider the U.S. federal tax consequences to a person that is not a U.S. Holder, nor does it describe the rules applicable to determine a taxpayer’s status as a U.S. Holder. This summary is based on the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code, final, temporary and proposed U.S. Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder, administrative and judicial interpretations thereof, (including with respect to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017), and the U.S.-Israel Income Tax Treaty, all as in effect as of the date hereof and all of which are subject to change, possibly on a retroactive basis, and all of which are open to differing interpretations. We will not seek a ruling from the IRS with regard to the U.S. federal income tax treatment of an investment in our securities by U.S. Holders and, therefore, can provide no assurances that the IRS will agree with the conclusions set forth below.
100
This discussion does not address all of the aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be relevant to a particular U.S. holder based on such holder’s particular circumstances and in particular does not discuss any estate, gift, generation-skipping, transfer, state, local, excise or foreign tax considerations. In addition, this discussion does not address the U.S. federal income tax treatment of a U.S. Holder who is: (1) a bank, life insurance company, regulated investment company, or other financial institution or “financial services entity;” (2) a broker or dealer in securities or foreign currency; (3) a person who acquired our securities in connection with employment or other performance of services; (4) a U.S. Holder that is subject to the U.S. alternative minimum tax; (5) a U.S. Holder that holds our securities as a hedge or as part of a hedging, straddle, conversion or constructive sale transaction or other risk-reduction transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes; (6) a tax-exempt entity; (7) real estate investment trusts or grantor trusts; (8) a U.S. Holder that expatriates out of the United States or a former long-term resident of the United States; or (9) a person having a functional currency other than the U.S. dollar. This discussion does not address the U.S. federal income tax treatment of a U.S. Holder that owns, directly or constructively, at any time, securities representing 10% or more of our voting power. Additionally, the U.S. federal income tax treatment of partnerships (or other pass-through entities) or persons who hold securities through a partnership or other pass-through entity are not addressed.
Each prospective investor is advised to consult his or her own tax adviser for the specific tax consequences to that investor of purchasing, holding or disposing of our securities, including the effects of applicable state, local, foreign or other tax laws and possible changes in the tax laws.
Exerciseor Expiry of Warrants
No gain or loss will be realized on the exercise of a Warrant. When a Warrant is exercised, the U.S. Holder’s cost of the common share acquired thereby will be equal to the U.S. Holder’s adjusted cost basis of the Warrant plus the exercise price paid for the ordinary share. The expiry of an unexercised Warrant will generally give rise to a capital loss equal to the adjusted cost basis to the U.S. Holder of the expired Warrant. The holding period of the common share acquired thru the exercise of a Warrant includes the holding period of the Warrant.
Taxationof Dividends Paid on Securities
We do not intend to pay dividends in the foreseeable future and U.S. Holders of Warrants are not entitled to dividends. In the event that we do pay dividends, and subject to the discussion under the heading “Passive Foreign Investment Companies” below and the discussion of “qualified dividend income” below, a U.S. Holder, other than certain U.S. Holder’s that are U.S. corporations, will be required to include in gross income as ordinary income the amount of any distribution paid on securities (including distributions paid on Warrants if such warrants were to become entitled to dividends and the amount of any Israeli tax withheld on the date of the distribution), to the extent that such distribution does not exceed our current and accumulated earnings and profits, as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The amount of a distribution which exceeds our earnings and profits will be treated first as a non-taxable return of capital, reducing the U.S. Holder’s tax basis for the securities to the extent thereof, and then capital gain. We do not expect to maintain calculations of our earnings and profits under U.S. federal income tax principles and, therefore, U.S. Holders should expect that the entire amount of any distribution generally will be reported as dividend income.
In general, preferential tax rates for “qualified dividend income” and long-term capital gains are applicable for U.S. Holders that are individuals, estates or trusts. For this purpose, “qualified dividend income” means, inter alia, dividends received from a “qualified foreign corporation.” A “qualified foreign corporation” is a corporation that is entitled to the benefits of a comprehensive tax treaty with the United States which includes an exchange of information program. The IRS has stated that the U.S.-Israel Tax Treaty satisfies this requirement and we believe we are eligible for the benefits of that treaty.
101
In addition, our dividends will be qualified dividend income if our securities are readily tradable on the Nasdaq Capital Market or another established securities market in the United States. Dividends will not qualify for the preferential rate if we are treated, in the year the dividend is paid or in the prior year, as a PFIC, as described below under “Passive Foreign Investment Companies.” A U.S. Holder will not be entitled to the preferential rate: (1) if the U.S. Holder has not held our securities for at least 61 days of the 121 day period beginning on the date which is 60 days before the ex-dividend date, or (2) to the extent the U.S. Holder is under an obligation to make related payments on substantially similar property. Any days during which the U.S. Holder has diminished its risk of loss on our securities are not counted towards meeting the 61-day holding period. Finally, U.S. Holders who elect to treat the dividend income as “investment income” pursuant to Code section 163(d)(4) will not be eligible for the preferential rate of taxation.
The amount of a distribution with respect to our securities will be measured by the amount of the fair market value of any property distributed, and for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the amount of any Israeli taxes withheld therefrom. Cash distributions paid by us in NIS will be included in the income of U.S. Holders at a U.S. dollar amount based upon the spot rate of exchange in effect on the date the dividend is includible in the income of the U.S. Holder, and U.S. Holders will have a tax basis in such NIS for U.S. federal income tax purposes equal to such U.S. dollar value. If the U.S. Holder subsequently converts the NIS into U.S. dollars or otherwise disposes of it, any subsequent gain or loss in respect of such NIS arising from exchange rate fluctuations will be U.S. source ordinary exchange gain or loss.
Taxationof the Disposition of Securities
Except as provided under the PFIC rules described below under “Passive Foreign Investment Companies,” upon the sale, exchange or other disposition of our securities, a U.S. Holder will recognize capital gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference between such U.S. Holder’s tax basis for the securities in U.S. dollars and the amount realized on the disposition in U.S. dollar (or its U.S. dollar equivalent determined by reference to the spot rate of exchange on the date of disposition, if the amount realized is denominated in a foreign currency). The gain or loss realized on the sale, exchange or other disposition of securities will be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder has a holding period of more than one year at the time of the disposition. Individuals who recognize long-term capital gains may be taxed on such gains at reduced rates of tax. The deduction of capital losses is subject to various limitations.
PassiveForeign Investment Companies
Special U.S. federal income tax laws apply to U.S. taxpayers who own shares of a corporation that is a PFIC. We will be treated as a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes for any taxable year that either:
| ● | 75%<br> or more of our gross income (including our pro rata share of gross income for any company, in which we are considered to own 25%<br> or more of the shares by value), in a taxable year is passive; or |
|---|---|
| ● | At<br> least 50% of our assets, averaged over the year and generally determined based upon fair market value (including our pro rata share<br> of the assets of any company in which we are considered to own 25% or more of the shares by value) are held for the production of,<br> or produce, passive income. |
| --- | --- |
For this purpose, passive income generally consists of dividends, interest, rents, royalties, annuities and income from certain commodities transactions and from notional principal contracts. Cash is treated as generating passive income.
102
Based on the projected composition of our income and valuation of our assets, we do not expect to be a PFIC for 2025, and we do not expect to become a PFIC in the future, although there can be no assurance in this regard. The tests for determining PFIC status are applied annually, and it is difficult to make accurate projections of future income and assets which are relevant to this determination. In addition, our PFIC status may depend in part on the market value of our securities.
If we currently are or become a PFIC, each U.S. Holder who has not elected to mark the shares to market (as discussed below), would, upon receipt of certain distributions by us and upon disposition of our securities at a gain: (1) have such distribution or gain allocated ratably over the U.S. Holder’s holding period for the securities, as the case may be; (2) the amount allocated to the current taxable year and any period prior to the first day of the first taxable year in which we were a PFIC would be taxed as ordinary income; and (3) the amount allocated to each of the other taxable years would be subject to tax at the highest rate of tax in effect for the applicable class of taxpayer for that year, and an interest charge for the deemed deferral benefit would be imposed with respect to the resulting tax attributable to each such other taxable year. In addition, when shares of a PFIC are acquired by reason of death from a decedent that was a U.S. Holder, the tax basis of such shares would not receive a step-up to fair market value as of the date of the decedent’s death, but instead would be equal to the decedent’s basis if lower, unless all gain were recognized by the decedent. Indirect investments in a PFIC may also be subject to these special U.S. federal income tax rules.
The PFIC rules described above would not apply to a U.S. Holder who makes a QEF election for all taxable years that such U.S. Holder has held the securities while we are a PFIC, provided that we comply with specified reporting requirements. Instead, each U.S. Holder who has made such a QEF election is required for each taxable year that we are a PFIC to include in income such U.S. Holder’s pro rata share of our ordinary earnings as ordinary income and such U.S. Holder’s pro rata share of our net capital gains as long-term capital gain, regardless of whether we make any distributions of such earnings or gain. In general, a QEF election is effective only if we make available certain required information. The QEF election is made on a shareholder-by-shareholder basis and generally may be revoked only with the consent of the IRS. We do not intend to notify U.S. Holders if we believe we will be treated as a PFIC for any tax year. In addition, we do not intend to furnish U.S. Holders annually with information needed in order to complete IRS Form 8621 and to make and maintain a valid QEF election for any year in which we or any of our subsidiaries are a PFIC. Therefore, the QEF election will not be available with respect to our securities.
In addition, the PFIC rules described above would not apply if we were a PFIC and a U.S. Holder made a mark-to-market election. A U.S. Holder of our securities which are regularly traded on a qualifying exchange, including the Nasdaq Capital Market, can elect to mark the securities to market annually, recognizing as ordinary income or loss each year an amount equal to the difference as of the close of the taxable year between the fair market value of the securities and the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in the securities. Losses are allowed only to the extent of net mark-to-market gain previously included income by the U.S. Holder under the election for prior taxable years.
U.S. Holders who hold our securities during a period when we are a PFIC will be subject to the foregoing rules, even if we cease to be a PFIC. U.S. Holders are strongly urged to consult their tax advisors about the PFIC rules.
Taxon Net Investment Income
U.S. Holders who are individuals, estates or trusts will generally be required to pay a 3.8% Medicare tax on their net investment income (including dividends on and gains from the sale or other disposition of our securities), or in the case of estates and trusts on their net investment income that is not distributed. In each case, the 3.8% Medicare tax applies only to the extent the U.S. Holder’s total adjusted income exceeds applicable thresholds.
103
InformationReporting and Withholding
A U.S. Holder may be subject to backup withholding at a rate of 24% with respect to cash dividends and proceeds from a disposition of securities. In general, backup withholding will apply only if a U.S. Holder fails to comply with specified identification procedures. Backup withholding will not apply with respect to payments made to designated exempt recipients, such as corporations and tax-exempt organizations. Backup withholding is not an additional tax and may be claimed as a credit against the U.S. federal income tax liability of a U.S. Holder, provided that the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.
Pursuant to recently enacted legislation, a U.S. Holder with interests in “specified foreign financial assets” (including, among other assets, our securities, unless such securities are held on such U.S. Holder’s behalf through a financial institution) may be required to file an information report with the IRS if the aggregate value of all such assets exceeds $50,000 on the last day of the taxable year or $75,000 at any time during the taxable year (or such higher dollar amount as may be prescribed by applicable IRS guidance); and may be required to file a Report of Foreign Bank and Financial Accounts if the aggregate value of the foreign financial accounts exceeds $10,000 at any time during the calendar year. You should consult your own tax advisor as to the possible obligation to file such information report.

We are subject to certain information reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, applicable to foreign private issuers and under those requirements will file reports with the SEC. The SEC maintains an Internet website that contains reports and other information regarding issuers that file electronically with the SEC. Our filings with the SEC are also available to the public through the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.
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 until March 18, 2026, our officers and directors were exempt, and our principal shareholders continue to be exempt, from the reporting provisions contained in Section 16 of the Exchange Act. Further, 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. domestic 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 containing financial statements audited by an independent registered public accounting firm, and may submit to the SEC, on a Form 6-K, unaudited half-yearly financial information.

ITEM
- QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
We are exposed to market risks in the ordinary course of our business. Market risk represents the risk of loss that may impact our financial position due to adverse changes in financial market prices and rates. Our current investment policy is to invest available cash in bank deposits with banks that have a credit rating of at least A-minus. Accordingly, some of our cash and cash equivalents are held in deposits that bear interest. Given the current low rates of interest we receive, we will not be adversely affected if such rates are reduced. Our market risk exposure is primarily a result of U.S. dollar/NIS, GBP/NIS and GBP/U.S. Dollar exchange rates, which is discussed in detail in the following paragraph. ****
Impactof Inflation and Currency Fluctuations
Our functional and reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. We incur some of our expenses in other currencies. As a result, we are exposed to the risk that the rate of inflation in countries in which we are active other than the United States will exceed the rate of devaluation of such countries’ currencies in relation to the dollar or that the timing of any such devaluation will lag behind inflation in such countries.
Global inflation has risen in 2025. To date, we have not been subject to inflationary pressures. However, to mitigate any identified potential inflationary pressures, the Company purchased more inventory at the beginning of the year in order to avoid price increases that may be caused by the increase in inflation or shipping costs. We cannot assure you that we will not be adversely affected in the future.
The annual rate of inflation in Israel was 2.6% in 2025 and 3.2% in 2024. The NIS appreciated against the U.S. dollar by approximately 12.5% in 2025 and depreciated by approximately 0.55% in 2024. The NIS against the GBP appreciated by approximately 6.22% in 2025 and by approximately 1.0% in 2024.

- CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
(a)Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the specified time periods and accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
General guidance from the SEC staff provides that if a registrant consummates a material purchase business combination during its fiscal year and it is not possible to conduct an assessment of the acquired business’s internal control over financial reporting in the period between the consummation date and the date of management’s assessment, management may exclude the acquired business from management’s report on internal control over financial reporting.
In March 2025, the Company completed the acquisition of Pure Logistics. Pure Logistics represents 14.6% of the total assets and 14.3% of the total revenues of the company. Due to the timing of the acquisition and the scope of the integration activities required to incorporate the acquired entity’s operations into the Company’s internal control framework, management has excluded several transaction level processes and controls at Pure Logistics which represents 2% of total consolidated assets and 14.3% of total consolidated revenues from its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025. Management is in the process of integrating the acquired entity into the Company’s internal control structure and procedures and expects to include the internal control over financial reporting of Pure Logistics in the scope of its assessment for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026.
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of December 31, 2025, or the Evaluation Date. Based on such evaluation, those officers have concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
(b)Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over our financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Our management conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria set forth in “Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013)” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this assessment, our management concluded that, as of December 31, 2025, our internal control over financial reporting was effective.
(c)Attestation Report of the Registered Public Accounting Firm
This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of the company’s registered public accounting firm due to an exemption for emerging growth companies under the JOBS Act.
(d)Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Other than the changes to our internal control over financial reporting resulting from the acquisition of a material business, Pure Logistics, in March 2025, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the year ended December 31, 2025, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

16G. CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
The Sarbanes-Oxley Act, as well as related rules subsequently implemented by the SEC, require foreign private issuers, such as us, to comply with various corporate governance practices. In addition, we are required to comply with the Nasdaq Listing Rules. Under those rules, we may elect to follow certain corporate governance practices permitted under the Companies Law in lieu of compliance with corresponding corporate governance requirements otherwise imposed by the Nasdaq Listing Rules for U.S. domestic issuers.
In accordance with Israeli law and practice and subject to the exemption set forth in Rule 5615 of the Nasdaq Listing Rules, we have elected to follow the provisions of the Companies Law, rather than the Nasdaq Listing Rules, with respect to the following requirements:
| ● | Quorum.<br> While the Nasdaq Stock Market Listing Rules require that the quorum for purposes of any meeting of the holders of a listed company’s<br> common voting stock, as specified in the company’s bylaws, be no less than 33 1/3% of the company’s outstanding common<br> voting stock, under Israeli law, a company is entitled to determine in its articles of association the number of shareholders and<br> percentage of holdings required for a quorum at a shareholders meeting. Our amended and restated articles of association provide<br> that a quorum of two or more shareholders holding at least 25% of the voting rights in person or by proxy is required for commencement<br> of business at a general meeting. However, the quorum set forth in our articles of association with respect to an adjourned meeting<br> consists of at least one shareholders present in person or by proxy. |
|---|---|
| ● | Compensation of officers. Israeli law and our articles of association do not require that the independent members of our board of directors<br> (or a compensation committee composed solely of independent members of our board of directors) determine an executive officer’s<br> compensation, as is generally required under the Nasdaq Stock Market Listing Rules with respect to the chief executive officer and<br> all other executive officers. Instead, compensation of executive officers is determined and approved by our compensation committee<br> and our board of directors, and in certain circumstances by our shareholders, either in consistency with our office holder compensation<br> policy or, in special circumstances in deviation therefrom, taking into account certain considerations stated in the Companies Law<br> (see “Item 6.C. - Board Practices - Fiduciary Duties and Approval of Related Party Transactions under Israeli Law” for<br> additional information). |
| --- | --- |
108
| ● | Shareholder approval. We will seek shareholder approval for all corporate actions requiring such approval under the requirements of the Companies<br> Law, rather than seeking approval for corporation actions in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635. In particular, under this<br> Nasdaq listing rule, shareholder approval is generally required for: (i) an acquisition of shares/assets of another company that<br> involves the issuance of 20% or more of the acquirer’s shares or voting rights or if a director, officer or 5% shareholder<br> has greater than a 5% interest in the target company or the consideration to be received; (ii) the issuance of shares leading to<br> a change of control; (iii) adoption or amendment of equity compensation arrangements (although under the provisions of the Companies<br> Law there is no requirement for shareholder approval for the adoption/amendment of the equity compensation plan); and (iv) issuances<br> of 20% or more of the shares or voting rights (including securities convertible into, or exercisable for, equity) of a listed company<br> via a private placement (and/or via sales by directors/officers/5% shareholders) if such equity is issued (or sold) at below the<br> greater of the book or market value of shares. By contrast, we follow Israeli practice, which is to have equity compensation plans<br> approved only by the compensation committee and board of directors, unless such arrangements are for the compensation of chief executive<br> officer or directors, in which case they also require the approval of the shareholders. In addition, we follow Israeli law, under<br> which a private placement of securities requires approval by our board of directors and shareholders if it will cause a person to<br> become a controlling shareholder (generally presumed at 25% ownership) or if: (a) the securities issued amount to 20% or more of<br> our outstanding voting rights before the issuance; (b) some or all of the consideration is other than cash or listed securities or<br> the transaction is not on market terms; and (c) transaction will increase the relative holdings of a shareholder that holds 5% or<br> more of our outstanding share capital or voting rights or will cause any person to become, as a result of the issuance, a holder<br> of more than 5% of our outstanding share capital or voting rights. |
|---|---|
| ● | Approval of Related Party Transactions. All related party transactions are approved in accordance with the requirements and procedures<br> for approval of interested party acts and transaction as set forth in the Companies Law, which requires the approval of the audit<br> committee, or the compensation committee, as the case may be, the board of directors and shareholders, as may be applicable, for<br> specified transactions, rather than approval by the audit committee or other independent body of our board of directors as required<br> under the Nasdaq Listing Rules (see “Item 6.C.- Board Practices - Fiduciary Duties and Approval of Related Party Transactions<br> under Israeli Law” for additional information). |

| ● | Annual Shareholders Meeting. As opposed to the Nasdaq listing Rule 5620(a), which mandates that a listed company hold its annual shareholders<br> meeting within one year of the company’s fiscal year-end, we are required, under the Companies Law, to hold an annual shareholder<br> meeting each calendar year and within 15 months of the last annual shareholders meeting. |

| ● | Distribution of periodic reports to shareholders; proxy solicitation. As opposed to the Nasdaq Listing Rules, which require listed issuers<br> to make such reports available to shareholders in one of a number of specific manners, Israeli law does not require us to distribute<br> periodic reports directly to shareholders, and the generally accepted business practice in Israel is not to distribute such reports<br> to shareholders but to make such reports available through a public website. In addition to making such reports available on a public<br> website, we currently make our audited consolidated financial statements available to our shareholders at our offices and will only<br> mail such reports to shareholders upon request. As a foreign private issuer, we are generally exempt from the SEC’s proxy solicitation<br> rules. |

We have adopted an insider trading policy governing the purchase, sale, and other dispositions of our securities by directors, senior management, and employees that is reasonably designed to promote compliance with applicable insider trading laws, rules and regulations, and any listing standards applicable to us.

ITEM
16K. CYBERSECURITY
We use a third-party sub-contractor to manage all Information Technology (IT) issues, including protection against, detection, and response to cyberattacks.
The measures that are taken to ensure proper protection include:
| ● | All computers are protected using a cloud-powered endpoint security solution that helps enterprises prevent, detect, investigate, and respond to advanced threats on their networks. It offers endpoint protection, endpoint detection and response, mobile threat defense, and integrated vulnerability management. It also provides, among other things, malware and spyware detection and remediation, rootkit detection and remediation and network vulnerability detection. |
|---|---|
| ● | All<br> Company computer hard drives are automatically encrypted. |
| --- | --- |
| ● | All<br> Company e-mails are protected by a cloud-based email filtering service designed to protect the Company against advanced threats related<br> to email and collaboration tools. |
| --- | --- |
| ● | Periodically,<br> all users on the Company’s computer network are required to perform multi-factor authentication. |
| --- | --- |
| ● | The<br> Company uses a cloud-based identity and access management service that enables access to external resources. |
| --- | --- |
| ● | Backup<br> is performed using a secure, automatic cloud-based backup and restore service. |
| --- | --- |
Additionally, we believe that our third-party vendors and service providers have their own respective cybersecurity protocols which our management believes to be adequate for protecting any of the Company’s data that might be in their possession from time to time; however, having such protocols is not necessarily a condition for us using or not using the services of any such vendors or providers.
Cybersecurity threats have not materially affected, and are not reasonably likely to affect, the Company, including its business strategy, results of operations or financial condition. The Company is not aware of any material security breach to date. Accordingly, the Company has not incurred any expenses over the last two years relating to information security breaches. The occurrence of cyber-incidents, or a deficiency in our cybersecurity or in those of any of our third-party service providers could negatively impact our business by causing a disruption to our operations, a compromise or corruption of our confidential information and systems, or damage to our business relationships or reputation, all of which could negatively impact our business and results of operations. There can be no assurance that the Company’s third-party vendors’ and service providers’ cybersecurity risk management processes, including their policies, controls or procedures, will be fully implemented, complied with or effective in protecting the Company’s systems and information.

REPORT
OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
Tothe Shareholders and Board of Directors of Nexera Technologies Ltd
(formerly Jeffs’ Brands Ltd)
Opinionon the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Nexera Technologies Ltd (formerly Jeffs’ Brands Ltd) and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basisfor Opinion
These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

The Company and its subsidiaries (“Group”), other than Pure Logistics and KeepZone, are engaged in the acquisition, improvement and operation of virtual stores (the “Brands”) mainly on the Amazon marketplace (“Amazon”). As of December 31, 2025, the Group together with its affiliates, operated eight Brands on Amazon: KnifePlanet, CC-Exquisite, PetEvo, Whoobli, Roshield, Entopest, Rempro, and Birdgo. In addition, the Company has a minority interest in SciSparc U.S., which operates the Wellution brand on Amazon.
Pure Logistics operates a logistics center specializing in warehousing and distribution services.
Through KeepZone, the Group is expanding into homeland security solutions, aiming to deliver multi-layered security systems for critical infrastructure while leveraging its data-driven operation expertise.
| b. | Concentration risk |
|---|
The Group’s activities, except as distinguished in Note 1(a), are mainly conducted through Amazon’s commercial platform. Any material change, whether temporary or permanent, including changes in Amazon’s terms of use and/or its policies, may affect sales performance, and may have a material effect on the Group’s financial position and the results of its operations.
In addition, the Group is engaged with a small number of suppliers as part of the production process of its Brands. Any material changes in the supply process, whether temporary or permanent, may affect sales performance, and may have a material effect on the Group’s financial position and the results of its operations.
| c. | Liquidity |
|---|
During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Group incurred a net loss of $4,047 and cash flows used in operating activities were $6,221. As of December 31, 2025, the Group had an accumulated deficit of approximately $19,757.
The Group intends to continue to finance its operating activities through the sale of products via its Brands, revenues from logistics services, anticipated revenues from KeepZone’s distribution and sales of certain security solutions, and through raising additional capital, as needed, including equity financings and debt financings.
As of December 31, 2025, the Group has access to funding under its June 2025 convertible note facility with an aggregate commitment of up to $100,000, subject to the terms of the agreement and satisfaction of applicable conditions (see note 11(e)). As of the filing date of these consolidated financial statements, the Company may request additional drawdowns of up to $92,500 under the facility over the remaining term of approximately 4.25 years, subject to the agreement’s terms and conditions. In addition, the Company completed on January 22, 2026 a direct offering with gross proceeds of $2,404 (see note 20(5)).
Management believes that its cash on hand together with expected cash flows from the June 2025 convertible note facility are sufficient to support the Group’s current operations for more than 12 months from the issuance date of these consolidated financial statements.

NOTE
2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
| a. | Basis of preparation of the financial statements |
|---|
The Group’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. For those subsidiaries in which the Company’s ownership is less than 100 percent, the outside shareholders’ interests are shown as non-controlling interests in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
| b. | Use of estimates |
|---|
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (U.S. GAAP) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. Such estimates are based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of the Group’s assets and liabilities.

NOTE2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)
| c. | Functional and presentation currency |
|---|
The functional and reporting currency of the Group is the United States dollar (“U.S. dollar”) as the U.S. dollar is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Group has operated and expects to continue to operate in the foreseeable future.
The Group’s transactions and balances denominated in U.S. dollars are presented at their original amounts. Non-U.S. dollar transactions and balances have been remeasured to U.S. dollars in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 830, “Foreign Currency Matters”. All transaction gains and losses from remeasurement of monetary balance sheet items denominated in non-U.S. dollar currencies are reflected in the statement of operations as financial income or expenses, as appropriate.
| d. | Cash and cash equivalents |
|---|
Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and highly liquid bank deposits readily convertible to known amounts of cash with original maturities of three months or less as of the date of its purchase.
| e. | Accounts receivable and credit losses |
|---|
Accounts receivables are stated at realizable value, net of an allowance for credit losses. The Group evaluates its outstanding accounts receivable and establishes an allowance for credit losses, if needed. These allowances are reevaluated and adjusted periodically as additional information is available. No provision for credit losses has been recorded as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.
| f. | Inventories |
|---|
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market based on net realizable value. Inventories are adjusted for estimated excess and obsolescence and written down to net realizable value based upon estimates of future demand, technology developments, and market conditions. Cost is determined in accordance with first-in, first-out method (“FIFO”). The cost of inventory includes all costs of purchase, and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition including shipment and freight costs.
| g. | Property and equipment |
|---|
Property and equipment are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation. Historical cost includes expenditures that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the items. Repairs and maintenance are charged to the statement of operations during the period in which they are incurred.

NOTE2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)
The assets are depreciated using the straight-line method to allocate their cost over their estimated useful lives, as follows:
| **** | Estimated Useful Life (years) |
|---|
| Computers equipment | 3 |
| Office Equipment/Furniture | 5-7 |
| Plant & Machinery | 5 |
| Leasehold improvements | Shorter of remaining lease term or estimated useful life |
| h. | Leases |
|---|
The Company recognizes a right-of-use asset (“ROU”) and lease liability for all operating lease with a term greater than twelve months upon lease arrangement inception. ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the terms of lease contracts. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Since most of the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company's incremental borrowing rate is used based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The lease terms used to calculate the ROU asset and related lease liability include options to terminate the lease or extend it when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Lease expense for operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term as an operating expense.
| i. | Asset acquisition |
|---|
The Group accounts for a transaction as an asset acquisition when substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or group of similar identifiable assets, or otherwise does not meet the definition of a business. Asset acquisition-related costs are capitalized as part of the asset or assets acquired.
| j. | Intangible assets |
|---|
The Group’s intangible assets consist primarily of its Brands and certain acquired intangible assets (e.g., customer relationships and distribution agreements). Intangible assets that are not considered to have an indefinite useful life are amortized over their estimated useful lives. Each period the Group evaluates the estimated remaining useful lives of its intangible assets and whether events or changes in circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining period of amortization.

NOTE2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)
The intangible assets are amortized using the straight-line method to allocate their cost over their estimated useful lives, as follows:
| Estimated Useful Life (years) |
|---|
| Brands | 10 |
| Customer relationships | 5 |
| Distribution agreement | Shorter of remaining agreement term or estimated useful life |
| k. | Goodwill |
|---|
Goodwill reflects the excess of the purchase price of business acquired over the fair value of net assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized but instead is tested for impairment, in accordance with ASC 350, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other”, at the reporting unit level, at least annually at December 31 each year, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired. Any excess of the carrying amount of the reporting unit over its fair value is recognized as an impairment loss, and the carrying value of goodwill is written down to fair value.
| l. | Impairment of long-lived assets |
|---|
Impairmentof Property, Equipment and Intangible Assets
The Group reviews long-lived assets and intangible assets on a periodic basis, as well as when such review is required based upon relevant circumstances, to determine whether events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable, considering the undiscounted cash flows expected from them. If applicable, the Company recognizes an impairment loss based upon the difference between the carrying amount and the fair value of such assets, in accordance with ASC 360-10 “Property, Plant and Equipment”.
Impairmentof Goodwill
The Group performs a qualitative analysis when testing goodwill for impairment. A qualitative goodwill impairment test is performed when the fair value of a reporting unit has significantly exceeded the carrying value of its net assets and based on current operations is expected to continue to exceed it. Otherwise, the Company is required to conduct a quantitative impairment test and estimate the fair value of the reporting unit using a combination of an income approach based on discounted cash flow analysis and a market approach based on market multiples. If the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, a goodwill impairment charge is recorded for the difference.
| m. | Investment in affiliates |
|---|
The investment in affiliated company is accounted for by the equity method under ASC 323-10, “Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures”. The Company uses the equity method when it has the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies of an entity but does not have control of the entity. Under the equity method of accounting, an investment is initially recorded on the balance sheet at cost, representing the Company’s proportionate share of fair value. The investment is subsequently adjusted to reflect the Company’s proportionate share of net earnings or losses recognized, distributions received, contributions made and certain other adjustments, as appropriate. The Company does not record losses of the equity method investee in excess of its investment balance unless the Company is liable for obligations of the equity method investee or is otherwise committed to provide financial support to the equity method investee.
The Company evaluates its equity method investments for impairment at each reporting date, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the investment might not be recoverable. Factors considered by the Company when determining whether an investment has been other-than-temporarily-impaired, include, but are not limited to, the length of the time and the extent to which the market value has been less than cost, the financial condition and near-term prospects of the investee, and the Company’s intent and ability to retain the investment until the recovery of its cost. An impairment loss on the equity method investments is recognized in earnings when the decline in value is determined to be other-than-temporary.

NOTE2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)
| n. | Financial instruments |
|---|
Loan receivables are recorded at amortized cost using the effective interest method, unless otherwise elected or required. The Group evaluates loan receivables for expected credit losses in accordance with ASC 326. Commitments and other instruments with equity-linked features are evaluated under ASC 815 to determine whether they should be accounted for as derivatives and measured at fair value through earnings.
| o. | Derivative instruments |
|---|
The Group accounts for freestanding and embedded derivative instruments in accordance with ASC 815. Derivatives are recognized at fair value and remeasured at each reporting date, with changes in fair value recognized in earnings. The Group evaluates whether contracts indexed to and potentially settled in its own equity qualify for equity classification under ASC 815-40.
| p. | Fair value measurement |
|---|
The Group applies ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”. Under this standard, fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e., the “exit price”) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
In determining fair value, the Group uses various valuation approaches. ASC 820 establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent from the Group. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the Group’s assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The hierarchy is broken down into three levels based on the inputs as follows:
Level 1 - Applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 - Applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data
Level 3 - Applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, restricted deposit, trade receivables, other receivables, trade payables, other payables and accrued expenses approximate their fair value due to the short-term maturity of such instruments.
The Group’s derivative liabilities in respect of Additional Warrants, Series A Warrants, the January Note, and the June Notes and loan commitment liability are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy because their fair values are estimated by utilizing valuation models and significant unobservable inputs. For more details, see note 11 (Derivative liabilities and convertible promissory notes) and note 8 (Convertible loan receivable).
The Group’s financial asset in respect of the investment in SciSparc Ltd. (“SciSparc”) is classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy, because the ordinary shares have quoted prices as they are traded on the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC.

NOTE2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)
| q. | Debt and issuance costs |
|---|
Convertible debentures are accounted for as debt and recorded at proceeds received, net of discounts and issuance costs, and subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Issuance costs are presented as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt and amortized to interest expense over the term of the debt.
| r. | Business Combinations |
|---|
The Company allocates the purchase price of an acquired company, including when applicable, the fair value of deferred or contingent consideration between tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed from the acquired business based on estimated fair values, with any residual of the purchase price recorded as goodwill. Estimating fair values requires significant judgments, estimates and assumptions including but not limited to discount rates, future cash flows and the economic lives of acquired intangibles. These estimates are based on historical experience and information obtained from the management of the acquired companies, and are inherently uncertain. During the measurement period, which not exceed one year from the date of acquisition, the Company may record adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, with a corresponding offset to goodwill only for adjustments resulting from facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date. After the measurement period, any subsequent adjustments are reflected in the consolidated statements of income.
| s. | Noncontrolling interests |
|---|
Noncontrolling interests represent equity interests in consolidated subsidiaries not attributable to the Company and are presented as a separate component of equity. Net income (loss) is attributed to controlling and noncontrolling interests based on their respective ownership interests. Changes in the Company’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions in accordance with ASC 810.
| t. | Revenue recognition |
|---|
The Group recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”. The Group derives revenue primarily from (i) Product Revenue: sale of consumer products through online markets (mainly in Amazon) and (ii) Service Revenue: logistics services.
| (i) | Product<br> Revenue is recognized when control of the product transfers to the customer, being at the<br> point that the goods are delivered (i.e., when the Company’s performance obligation<br> is satisfied). Each of the Company’s contracts have a single distinct performance<br> obligation, which is the promise to transfer individual goods. Payment of the transaction<br> price is due immediately at the point the customer purchases the goods. |
|---|
The transaction price is the amount of the consideration that is expected to be received based on the contract terms, excluding amounts collected on behalf of third parties (such as taxes).
The Group evaluates the criteria outlined in ASC 606-10-55, “Principal versus Agent Considerations”, in determining whether it is appropriate to record the gross amount of product sales and related costs or the net amount earned as commissions. The Group evaluates whether it is appropriate to recognize revenue on a gross or net basis based upon its evaluation of whether the Company obtains control of the specified goods by considering if it is primarily responsible for fulfillment of the promise, has inventory risk, and has the latitude in establishing pricing and selecting suppliers, among other factors. Based on its evaluation of these factors, management has determined that it is the principal in these arrangements; therefore, sales are recorded on a gross basis.

NOTE2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)
Under the Group’s standard contract terms, customers have a right of return within 45 days. For contracts with rights of return, the Group recognizes revenue based on the amount of the consideration which the Group expects to receive for products which are not expected to be returned and recognizes a refund liability for the amount not expected to be received. At the end of each reporting period, the Group updates its estimates of expected product returns and adjusts the refund liabilities with a corresponding adjustment in revenues.
| (ii) | Service<br> revenue is generated primarily from warehousing services, including storage, handling and<br> fulfillment services provided by Pure Logistics to third-party customers. The Group evaluates<br> the promised services in each contract to determine whether they represent distinct performance<br> obligations. Service arrangements generally include a combination of storage and handling/fulfillment<br> activities, which are priced based on contractual rate schedules and billed on a periodic<br> basis. |
|---|
Revenue for storage services is recognized over time as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits of the services as they are performed. Storage revenue is generally recognized monthly based on the customer’s actual storage utilization, typically determined by the occupied square footage and inventory levels during the month, in accordance with the applicable contractual rates. Revenue for handling and fulfillment activities (e.g., receiving, pick-and-pack and related services) is generally recognized as performed, consistent with the satisfaction of the related performance obligations.
| u. | Cost of revenues |
|---|---|
| (i) | Product<br> cost of revenue primarily consists of cost of goods sold, expenses related to Amazon’s<br> commissions, storage, leasing of warehouses and salaries to warehouses employees, freight<br> and duty. |
| --- | --- |
In accordance with Amazon’s terms of use, the Group is obligated to pay to Amazon incremental costs, such as sales fulfillment commissions which are contingent on making binding sales. Sales commissions would not have been incurred if the contract had not been obtained.
| (ii) | Service<br> cost of revenue primarily consists of warehouses lease and salaries to warehouses employees. |
|---|
| v. | Advertising expenses |
|---|
The Group expenses advertising costs as incurred and included within sales and marketing expenses, were $1,279, $1,216 and $719 for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
| w. | Share-based compensation |
|---|
The Group accounts for share-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, “Compensation - Stock Compensation”. Share-based awards are granted to employees, directors, and service providers and consist of ordinary shares and RSUs. Compensation cost is measured at the grant-date fair value, which for ordinary shares and RSUs is based on the Company’s quoted market price on the grant date.
Compensation expense is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations for the portion of awards expected to vest for RSUs, and is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, as the awards vest in tranches based solely on service-based vesting conditions.
| x. | Income taxes |
|---|
The Group accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, “Income Taxes”. ASC 740 prescribes the use of the liability method whereby deferred tax assets and liability account balances are determined based on differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances in respect of deferred tax assets are provided for, if necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to amounts more likely than not to be realized. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024 a partial valuation allowance was recorded on the Group’s deferred tax assets.
The Group implements a two-step approach to recognize and measure uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates that it is more likely than not that, on an evaluation of the technical merits, the tax position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount that is more than 50% (cumulative basis) likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, no liability for unrecognized tax positions was recognized.

| iii. | 1,571,429 common shares upon Fort Technology reaching annual revenues of at least $15 million by December 31, 2028, as reflected in its audited financial statements. |
| --- | --- |
The Transaction was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations. Fort was determined to be the accounting acquirer based primarily on the Company’s continuing controlling financial interest and the composition of the post-transaction governing body and senior management. Accordingly, the Transaction was accounted for as a capital transaction.
Because the legal acquirer (Fort Technology) did not meet the definition of a business, the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed of Fort Technology were recognized at their historical carrying amounts. No goodwill or other intangible assets were recognized as a result of the Transaction.
The Contingent Right Shares are issuable upon achievement of specified milestones and are required to be settled in a fixed number of common shares with no cash settlement or other variable settlement provisions. The Company evaluated the Contingent Right Shares under ASC 815-40, “Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity”, and ASC 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity”, and concluded that the Contingent Right Shares are classified in equity. Accordingly, the Contingent Right Shares are not subsequently remeasured. Changes in the Company’s ownership interest in Fort that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as equity transaction and recorded in transactions with noncontrolling interests. The noncontrolling interest was measured as the proportionate share of the accounting acquirer’s pre-Transaction equity.

6 — GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS
Goodwill:
During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company recognized goodwill in connection with the acquisition of Pure Logistics (note 3(a)). The goodwill that arose from the acquisition consists of synergies expected from the activities of the Company and Pure Logistics.
The Company performs its annual goodwill impairment test on each December 31 and when triggering events occur. As of December 31, 2025, the Company performed its annual impairment assessment and concluded that no goodwill impairment existed.
The following table presents a rollforward of goodwill:

Management evaluates definite-lived intangible assets for impairment when performance expectations, events, or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset’s carrying value may not be recoverable. During the year ended December 31, 2025, management decided to discontinue the sale and marketing of one of the Company’s brands in the E-commerce segment, which constituted a triggering event. Based on this decision, the Company concluded that the brand would not generate future economic benefits and recorded a full impairment of the brand’s carrying amount of $140, within general and administrative expenses.
Management evaluated its other definite-lived intangible assets, including other brands, customer relationships, and a distribution agreement, and determined that there were no indicators of impairment for those assets during the year ended December 31, 2025.
| a. | Fort - asset acquisition |
|---|
On March 2, 2023, the Company entered into a share purchase agreement (the “Fort SPA”), with the holders (the “Sellers”), of all of the issued and outstanding share capital of Fort, a company incorporated under the laws of England and Wales and engaged in the sale of pest control products primarily through Amazon, pursuant to which on March 9, 2023, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding share capital of Fort, for approximately £2,039 thousand (approximately $2,458) (the “Fort Acquisition”).
Fort did not obtain any substantive processes, assembled workforce, or employees capable of producing outputs in connection with the acquisition. Therefore, the transaction was accounted for as an asset acquisition, as the acquired assets did not meet the definition of a business as defined by ASC 805, Business Combinations.
On March 9, 2023, the Company recognized a Brand name in the amount of $1,991 paid in connection with the Fort Acquisition amortized over a period of 10 years.
As part of the Fort SPA, the employment of these employees was terminated within three months, and all termination costs were paid by the Sellers.
| b. | KeepZone - distribution agreement |
|---|
On December 4, 2025, KeepZone entered into a distribution agreement with Scanary Ltd. (“Scanary”) pursuant to which KeepZone obtained exclusive distribution rights for certain territories in exchange for total consideration of $1,000, payable in five monthly installments starting from December 2025. The distribution rights represent a contract-based intangible asset under ASC 350. The distribution agreement period determined for an initial term of 2 years, with the potential for an additional 2 years extension upon achievement of specified purchase targets. The Company capitalized the exclusivity distribution rights as a definite-lived intangible asset and amortizes the asset on a straight-line basis over the expected period of benefit, initially estimated at 2 years.
The agreement includes contingent profit-sharing payments from Scanary based on its sales outside the exclusive territories. These contingent features are not recognized at inception and are accounted for when realization becomes probable and reasonably estimable in accordance with ASC 450.

7 — LEASES
The Company leases office space in Israel pursuant to a lease agreement effective as of October 1, 2022. The lease agreement expires on September 30, 2025, with an option to extend the lease with same terms for an additional two years. The monthly payment is approximately NIS 18 thousand (approximately $5). During September 2025, the company renewed the lease for additional two years. The monthly rent payment as of December 31, 2025, was approximately NIS 20 thousand (approximately $6).
Fort leases two warehouse facilities in the UK. The first lease agreement expired on February 23, 2025, but Fort continues to occupy the premises by mutual agreement with the lessors, until a new negotiated agreement is signed. On January 28, 2026, Fort signed a new lease agreement with annual rent of £44 thousand (approximately $60) paid quarterly. The second warehouse which Fort leases under a lease agreement effective as July 1, 2024, is for a fixed five-year term with no early termination option. The annual rent as of December 31, 2025, was £52 thousand (approximately $70), paid monthly. There is no option for further extension.
Since the acquisition of Pure Logistics (see Note 3(a)), Pure Logistics leases logistics center, with a term expiring on November 30, 2029. The monthly payment as of December 31, 2025 was approximately $67.
On June 30, 2025, Pure Logistics decided not to exercise the renewal option related to one of its warehouses and returned the premises. As a result, the Company reduced its right-of-use asset by $1,826 and its lease liability by $1,715. The difference of $111, which resulted primarily from the straight-line recognition of lease expense under ASC 842 in prior periods compared to the variable lease payments actually incurred, was recognized as a gain from reassessment of lease term within cost of sales.
As of December 31, 2025, the Company’s operating lease assets and lease liabilities (both the current and non-current portion) for operating leases totaled $3,126 and $3,034, respectively.
The Company uses its incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate for its leases, as the implicit rate in the lease is not readily determinable.
Supplemental weighted-average information for leases was as follows:
| December 31, |
|---|
| | 2025 | | | 2024 | | |
| Weighted-average remaining lease term | | 4.59 years | | | 3.97 years | |

8 — CONVERTIBLE LOAN RECEIVABLE
On August 8, 2025, Fort Technology entered into a convertible loan agreement with EEH Ventures Ltd. (“EEH”), a privately held company organized under the laws of the United Kingdom. Under the agreement, the Company funded a loan (the “Primary Loan”) in the principal amount of £2 million (approximately $2,718). The Primary Loan is denominated in GBP, bears a yearly interest rate of 7.5%, and is due at maturity three years from the drawdown date, August 12, 2025, unless earlier converted.
Under the terms of the agreement, Fort Technology has the right to convert the outstanding principal and accrued interest of the Primary Loan into ordinary shares of EEH representing 19.9% of EEH’s fully diluted share capital.
In addition, EEH has an option, exercisable one year after the signing of the convertible loan agreement, to draw an additional loan of up to £1 million (the “Additional Loan”) on similar terms. If drawn and subsequently converted, the combined conversion of the Primary Loan and the Additional Loan would entitle the Company to receive shares representing up to 25% of EEH’s fully diluted share capital.
As of December 31, 2025, only the Primary Loan had been drawn but no amounts had been converted.
At initial recognition, the Company allocated the transaction price between the funded Primary Loan and the undrawn Additional Loan based on their respective relative fair values. The carrying amount allocated to the Primary Loan and the fair value of the Additional Loan were £2,192 thousand (approximately $2,977 thousand) and £192 thousand (approximately $260 thousand), respectively.
The Primary Loan is accounted for as a loan receivable under ASC 310 - “Receivables” and is subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. The difference between the initial carrying amount allocated to the Primary Loan and the contractual amount receivable at maturity, including stated interest, is accreted to interest income over the contractual term using the effective interest rate determined at initial recognition. The Company also evaluates the Primary Loan for expected credit losses in accordance with ASC 326, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses.”
The undrawn Additional Loan represents a contractual commitment to provide credit on terms that include an equity conversion feature and that are considered, in aggregate, to be potentially favorable to the borrower. The Company accounts for this undrawn Additional Loan as a loan commitment liability, recorded in other payables, measured at FVTPL, with changes in fair value recognized in finance expense (income), net.
The fair value of the Additional Loan is determined using a Black-Scholes pricing model. As such, the Additional Loan is classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. A summary of significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 inputs) used in measuring the fair value of the loan commitment liability issued are as follows:
| Conversion ratio of EEH’s<br> fully diluted share capital | 5.1 | % |
| Underlying asset value ( in thousands) | 12,012 | |
| Expected term (years) | 2 | |
| Exercise price ( in thousands) | 1,156 | |
| Expected volatility | 27.52 | % |
| Risk-free interest rate | 3.92 | % |
| Expected dividend yield | - |
All values are in British Pounds.

NOTE8 — CONVERTIBLE LOAN RECEIVABLE (cont.)
As of December 31, 2025, there was no change to the Additional Loan’s fair value in GBP since initial recognition. The change in the U.S. dollar carrying amounts between these dates arose from changes in GBP/USD exchange rate over the period. The net foreign exchange difference on the Primary Loan and the Additional Loan in the amount of $31 was recognized within financial expenses, net.
On January 13, 2026, Fort Technology entered into an amendment to the convertible loan agreement with EEH. The amendment eliminated the undrawn Additional Loan and modified the conversion feature of the Primary Loan such that, upon conversion, EEH is required to transfer to the Company 4,774 ordinary shares of Wigan Topco Limited (“Wigan”), representing all of the shares in Wigan beneficially owned by EEH (constituting 35.8% of Wigan’s issued share capital as of the amendment date), in full satisfaction of the outstanding principal and accrued interest.

Management assesses whether impairment indicators are present that may indicate an other than temporary impairment (“OTTI”) exists. Management determined that the decrease in revenues and operating losses of SciSparc U.S. were indicative of an OTTI impairment as of December 31 2025 and 2024. Accordingly, management’s performed an impairment test of the equity investment and determined that the carrying value exceed the discounted cash flows. As a result, an impairment loss of $56 and $659 was recorded within equity losses in the statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2025, and 2024, respectively.

11 — DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES AND CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTES
| a. | Additional Warrants: |
|---|
On November 28, 2022, in connection with certain adjustments pursuant to the terms of the Initial Public Offering (“IPO”) Warrants (see note 13(b)(1)), the Company issued additional 2,824,525 warrants (the “Additional Warrants”) to certain qualified holders (as defined in the IPO Warrants). The Additional Warrants are exercisable to purchase up to 130 ordinary shares. The term of each Additional Warrant is five years from the issuance date.
Each Additional Warrant holder receives semi-annual payments equal to approximately 2.3% of the Company’s gross revenues, calculated for the first and second six-month fiscal periods, shared pro rata among qualified holders (“Revenue Sharing Payment”). The Additional Warrants may be redeemed by the Company at any time at a price equal to three times the initial exercise price of $43,749. The Revenue Sharing Payment related to 2025 ,2024 and 2023 was $384, $312 and $269, respectively.
Because the Additional Warrants include provisions that require payments based on the Company’s gross revenues and provide for cash redemption, the Company classified the Additional Warrants as derivative liabilities. The Additional Warrants are measured at fair value at each reporting date, with changes in fair value recognized within finance expenses (income), net.
The value of the Additional Warrants was calculated based on the binomial option pricing model. Additionally, the revenue forecast over the contractual term of the Additional Warrants is a significant input in the valuation.
The following table lists the significant unobservable inputs used for calculation of fair value of the Additional Warrants:
| December 31,<br><br> 2025 | December 31,<br><br> 2024 | |||||

| Weighted average cost of capital (WACC) | 20.4 | % | 21.9 | % | ||
| b. | Series A Warrants: | |||||
| --- | --- |
In connection with a Private Placement that closed on January 29, 2024 (see note 13(b)(4)), the Company issued Series A Warrants initially exercisable for up to 1,093 ordinary shares at an exercise price of $8,322.86 per share and expiring 66 months from the issuance date.
The Series A Warrants contained a price-based reset mechanism tied to the effectiveness of the resale registration statement. Upon the effectiveness of the resale registration statement on March 11, 2024, the Series A Warrants became exercisable for 4,323 ordinary shares at an exercise price of $2,103 (subject to certain anti-dilution and share combination event protections).
The Series A Warrants also included a down-round adjustment feature under which the exercise price may be reduced in connection with certain future equity issuances at prices below the then-current exercise price.
In addition, the Series A Warrants included a reset feature triggered by certain capital structure events (including share splits, reverse share splits, share dividends, recapitalizations, and similar transactions), under which the exercise price and the number of shares issuable could be adjusted based on the post-event reference trading price. Following the reverse share split on November 26, 2024 (see Note 1(d)), the Series A Warrants were adjusted to an exercise price of $643 per share and 14,148 underlying ordinary shares. Following an additional reverse share split that was effected on June 16, 2025, no further adjustment was required because the reset mechanism did not result in a lower post–reverse split reference price. See note 20(8) regarding adjustment of the reset mechanism following the reverse share split on February 17, 2026.
Because the Series A Warrants include ongoing price and share reset features, the Company concluded that the Series A Warrants did not meet the equity classification conditions in ASC 815-40. Accordingly, the Series A Warrants are classified as derivative liabilities and are remeasured at fair value at each reporting date, with changes in fair value recognized within finance expenses (income), net.

On January 16, 2025, the Company issued a non-recourse convertible promissory note (the “January Note”) to an institutional investor in the principal amount of $2,850 and a warrant to purchase up to 3,197 ordinary shares (the “January Warrant”). The Company received net proceeds of $2,565 thousand, after a 10% issuance discount, in connection with such issuance.
The January Note bears interest at an annual rate of 8% and is repayable in a single payment on July 16, 2026. The outstanding amount under the January Note is convertible, at the option of the holder, into the Company’s ordinary shares at a conversion price equal to the lower of (i) $668.74, representing 110% of the volume-weighted average price (“VWAP”) of the Company’s ordinary shares on January 15, 2025, or (ii) 95% of the lowest daily VWAP during the 20 consecutive trading days immediately preceding the applicable conversion date.
The January Warrant was issued with an initial exercise price of $580 per share, subject to certain anti-dilution adjustments and other adjustments, and was exercisable upon issuance for a term of 5.5 years, expiring on July 16, 2030.

NOTE11 — DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES AND CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTES (cont.)
Upon issuance, both the January Note and the January Warrant were classified as liabilities and recorded at fair value through profit or loss, as the conversion and adjustment features did not meet the criteria for equity classification. At the issuance date, the fair value of the January Note was $4,246 and the fair value of the January Warrant was $1,520 thousand. Because the combined fair value exceeded the proceeds received, the Company recognized an immediate expense of $3,201 in financial expense, net.
From January 2025 to June 30, 2025, the holder of the January Note converted an aggregate of $2,673 of the principal amount into ordinary shares. On July 1, 2025, the Company repaid the remaining balance of the January Note in the amount of $271 thousand.
On June 30, 2025, the Company and the holder amended certain terms of the January Warrant. Following an evaluation of the amended terms, the Company concluded that the warrant is considered indexed to its own equity and reclassified the warrant liability to additional paid-in capital in the amount of $232.

On June 26, 2025, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “June SPA”) with an institutional investor (the “Investor”), pursuant to which the Company may, from time to time and subject to specified conditions, issue and sell convertible promissory notes (the “June Notes”, and each a “June Note”) in an aggregate principal amount of up to $100,000.
At the initial closing, the Company issued a June Note with a principal amount of $5,000 for a purchase price of $4,500 in cash. Beginning December 1, 2025, and subject to the terms of the June SPA and satisfaction of certain conditions, the Company may request additional drawdowns of up to $2,500 each quarter, with a purchase price equal to 90% of the principal amount.

12 — CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES
On August 21, 2025, Fort Technology issued unsecured convertible debentures in an aggregate principal amount of CAD 5,000 thousand (approximately $3,630 thousand) (the “Convertible Debentures”). The Convertible Debentures mature on August 21, 2027 and bear interest at 10% per annum, payable quarterly in cash.
The holders of the Convertible Debentures may convert the principal amount into units of Fort Technology at any time from issuance up to maturity at a conversion price of $1.86 per unit. Each unit consists of one common share and one warrant. Each warrant entitles the holder to purchase one additional common share at an exercise price of $1.86 per share and is exercisable until August 21, 2030. Any unconverted principal is repayable in cash at maturity.
The Convertible Debentures are accounted for as debt and are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Interest expense includes contractual coupon interest and the amortization of any discount and issuance costs and is presented within financial expense, net.
Total issuance costs were $408, consisting of (i) $242 related to common shares issued to advisors and certain investors and (ii) $166 of cash fees paid to advisors and certain investors. Issuance costs attributable to the Convertible Debentures were recorded as a debt discount and are amortized to interest expense over the term of the Convertible Debentures using the effective interest method.
Because the Company participated in the financing, any Convertible Debentures held by the Company are eliminated in consolidation. Accordingly, the Convertible Debentures are presented in the consolidated financial statements only to the extent held by external investors.
As of December 31, 2025, no amounts under the Convertible Debentures had been converted into units of Fort Technology. The principal amount of the Convertible Debentures held by external investors was $2,033, and the carrying amount was $1,685, net of unamortized discount and issuance costs of $348. Total interest expense recognized on the Convertible Debentures for the year ended December 31, 2025 was $135.

10. Registered Holder**.**

11. Issuance and Repurchase of Shares**.**
(a) The unissued shares from time to time shall be under the control of the Board of Directors (and to the full extent permitted by law any committee thereof), which shall have the power to issue or otherwise dispose of shares and of securities convertible or exercisable into or other rights to acquire from the company to such persons, on such terms and conditions (including inter alia terms relating to calls set forth in Article 13(f) hereof), and either at par or at a premium, or subject to the provisions of the companies Law, at a discount and/or with payment of commission, and at such times, as the Board of Directors (or the committee, as the case may be) deems fit, and the power to give to any person the option to acquire from the company any shares or securities convertible or exercisable into or other rights to acquire from the Company, either at par or at a premium, or, subject as aforesaid, at a discount and/or with payment of commission, during such time and for such consideration as the Board of Directors (or the Committee, as the case may be) deems fit.

12. Payment in Installment.
If pursuant to the terms of issuance of any share, all or any portion of the price thereof shall be payable in installments, every such installment shall be paid to the Company on the due date thereof by the then registered holder(s) of the share or the person(s) then entitled thereto.
13. Calls on Shares**.**
(a) The Board of Directors may, from time to time, as it, in its discretion, deems fit, make calls for payment upon shareholders in respect of any sum (including premium) which has not been paid up in respect of shares held by such shareholders and which is not, pursuant to the terms of issuance of such shares or otherwise, payable at a fixed time, and each shareholder shall pay the amount of every call so made upon him (and of each installment thereof if the same is payable in installments), to the person(s) and at the time(s) and place(s) designated by the Board of Directors, as any such times may be thereafter extended and/or such person(s) or place(s) changed. Unless otherwise stipulated in the resolution of the Board of Directors (and in the notice hereafter referred to), each payment in response to a call shall be deemed to constitute a pro rata payment on account of all the shares in respect of which such call was made.
(b) Notice of any call for payment by a shareholder shall be given in writing to such shareholder not less than fourteen (14) days prior to the time of payment fixed in such notice, and shall specify the time and place of payment, and the person to whom such payment is to be made. Prior to the time for any such payment fixed in a notice of a call given to a shareholder, the Board of Directors may in its absolute discretion, by notice in writing to such shareholder, revoke such call in whole or in part, extend the time fixed for payment thereof, or designate a different place of payment or person to whom payment is to be made. In the event of a call payable in installments, only one notice thereof needs be given.
(c) If pursuant to the terms of issuance of a share or otherwise, an amount is made payable at a fixed time (whether on account of such nominal value of such share or by way of premium), such amount shall be payable at such time as if it were payable by virtue of a call made by the Board of Directors and for which notice was given in accordance with paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Article 13, and the provision of these Articles with regard to calls (and the non-payment thereof) shall be applicable to such amount or such installment (and the non payment thereof).
(d) Joint holders of a share shall be jointly and severally liable to pay all calls for payment in respect of such share and all interest payable thereon.
(e) Any amount called for payment which is not paid when due shall bear interest from the date fixed for payment until actual payment thereof, at such rate (not exceeding the then prevailing debtor rate charged by leading commercial banks in Israel), and payable at such time(s) as the Board of Directors may prescribe.
(f) Upon the issuance of shares, the Board of Directors may provide for differences among the holders of such shares as to the amounts and times for payment of calls for payment in respect of such shares.
5
Prepayment.
With the approval of the Board of Directors, any shareholder may pay to the Company any amount not yet payable in respect of such shareholder’s shares, and the Board of Directors may approve the payment by the Company of interest on any such amount until the same would be payable if it had not been paid in advance, at such rate and time(s) as may be approved by the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors may at any time cause the Company to repay all or any part of the money so advanced, without premium or penalty. Nothing in this Article 14 shall derogate from the right of the Board of Directors to make any call for payment before or after receipt by the Company of any such advance.
15. Forfeiture and Surrender**.**
(a) If any shareholder fails to pay an amount payable by virtue of a call, installment or interest thereon as provided for in accordance herewith, on or before the day fixed for payment of the same, the Board of Directors, may at any time after the day fixed for such payment, so long as such amount (or any portion thereof) or interest thereon (or any portion thereof) remains unpaid, forfeit all or any of the shares in respect of which such payment was called for. All expenses incurred by the Company in attempting to collect any such amount or interest thereon, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and costs of legal proceedings, shall be added to, and shall, for all purposes (including the accrual of interest thereon) constitute a part of, the amount payable to the Company in respect of such call.
(b) upon the adoption of a resolution as to the forfeiture of a shareholder’s share, the Board of Directors shall cause notice thereof to be given to such shareholder, which notice shall state that, in the event of the failure to pay the entire amount so payable by a date specified in the notice (which date shall be not less than fourteen (14) days after the date such notice is given and which may be extended by the Board of Directors), such shares shall be ipso facto forfeited, provided, however, that, prior to such date, the Board of Directors may cancel such resolution of forfeiture, but no such cancellation shall stop the Board of Directors from adopting a further resolution of forfeiture in respect of the non-payment of the same amount.
(c) Without derogating from Articles 52 and 56 hereof, whenever shares are forfeited as herein provided, all dividends, if any, theretofore declared in respect thereof and not actually paid shall be deemed to have been forfeited at the same time.
(d) The Company, by resolution of the Board of Directors, may accept the voluntary surrender of any share.
(e) Any share forfeited or surrendered as provided herein, shall become the property of the Company as a dormant share, and the same, subject to the provisions of these Articles, may be sold, re-issued or otherwise disposed of as the Board of Directors deems fit.
(f) Any person whose shares have been forfeited or surrendered shall cease to be a shareholder in respect of the forfeited or surrendered shares, but shall, notwithstanding, be liable to pay, and shall forthwith pay, to the Company, all calls, interest and expenses owing upon or in respect of such shares at the time of forfeiture or surrender, together with interest thereon from the time of forfeiture or surrender until actual payment, at the rate prescribed in Article 13(e) above, and the Board of Directors, in its discretion, may, but shall not be obligated to, enforce or collect the payment of such amounts, or any part thereof, as it shall deem fit. in the event of such forfeiture or surrender, the Company, by resolution of the Board of Directors, may accelerate the date(s) of payment of any or all amounts then owing to the Company by the person in question (but not yet due) in respect of all shares owned by such shareholder, solely or jointly with another.
(g) The Board of Directors may at any time, before any share so forfeited or surrendered shall have been sold, re-issued or otherwise disposed of, nullify the forfeiture or surrender on such conditions as it deems fit, but no such nullification shall stop the Board of Directors from re-exercising its powers of forfeiture pursuant to this Article 15.
6
Lien.
(a) Except to the extent the same may be waived or subordinated in writing, the Company shall have a first and paramount lien upon all the shares registered in the name of each shareholder (without regard to any equitable or other claim or interest in such shares on the part of any other person), and upon the proceeds of the sale thereof, for his debts, liabilities and engagements to the Company arising from any amount payable by such shareholder in respect of any unpaid or partly paid share, whether or not such debt, liability or engagement has matured. Such lien shall extend to all dividends from time to time declared or paid in respect of such share.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES
Nexera Technologies Ltd has two classes of securities registered under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended: ordinary shares, no par value per share, or Ordinary Shares, and warrants to purchase ordinary shares, or IPO Warrants. References herein to “we,” “us,” “our” and the “Company” refer to Nexera Technologies Ltd and not to any of its subsidiaries. The following description may not contain all of the information that is important to you, and we therefore refer you to our amended and restated articles of association, or Articles of Association, a copy of which is filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, as an exhibit to this Annual Report on Form 20-F.
ORDINARY SHARES
As of the date of this Annual Report, our authorized share capital consisted of 1,500,000,000 Ordinary Shares. All of our outstanding Ordinary Shares have been validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. Our Ordinary Shares are not redeemable and are not subject to any preemptive right.
Our Ordinary Shares are listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market, or Nasdaq, under the symbol “JFBR” since August 26, 2022. Effective as of March 31, 2026, the symbol for our Ordinary Shares was changed to “NEXR”.
Articles of Association
Purposes and Objects of the Company
Our purpose as stated in our Articles of Association includes every lawful purpose.
The Powers of the 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 – 1999, or the Companies Law, or under our Articles of Association to be exercised or taken by our shareholders.
Rights Attached to 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. |
| --- | --- |
Transfer of Shares
Our fully paid Ordinary Shares are issued in registered form and may be freely transferred under our Articles of Association, unless the transfer is restricted or prohibited by another instrument, applicable law or the rules of the Nasdaq. The ownership or voting of Ordinary Shares by non-residents of Israel is not restricted in any way by our Articles of Association, or the laws of the State of Israel, except for ownership by nationals of some countries that are, have been, or will be, in a state of war with Israel.
Election of Directors
Under our Articles of Association, our board of directors must consist of not less than three but no more than twelve directors. Each of our directors, other than external directors (if any), for whom special election requirements apply under the Companies Law, are appointed by a simple majority vote of holders of Ordinary Shares, participating and voting at an annual general meeting of our shareholders. Our 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, with one class being elected each year at the annual general meeting of our shareholders, and serve on our board of directors until the third annual general meeting following such election or re-election or until they are removed by a vote of 70% of the total voting power 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 Articles of Association. The board of directors may assign members of the Board 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. In addition, our 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). A director so appointed will hold office until the next annual general meeting of our shareholders for the election of the class of directors in respect of which the vacancy was created, or in the case of a vacancy due to the number of directors being less than the maximum number of directors, until the next annual general meeting of our shareholders for the election of the class of directors to which such director was assigned by our board of directors. External directors, if any, are elected for an initial term of three years, may be elected for additional terms of three years each under certain circumstances, and may be removed from office pursuant to the terms of the Companies Law.
Dividend and Liquidation Rights
We may declare a dividend to be paid to the holders of Ordinary Shares in proportion to their respective shareholdings. Under the Companies Law, dividend distributions are determined by the board of directors and do not require the approval of the shareholders of a company unless the company’s articles of association provide otherwise. Our Articles of Association do not require shareholder approval of a dividend distribution and provide that dividend distributions may be determined by our board of directors.
Pursuant to the Companies Law, the distribution amount is limited to the greater of retained earnings or earnings generated over the previous two years, according to the Company’s most recently reviewed or audited financial statements (less the amount of previously distributed dividends, if not reduced from the earnings), provided that the end of the period to which the financial statements relate is not more than six months prior to the date of the distribution. If we do not meet such criteria, then we may distribute dividends only with court approval; as a company listed on an exchange outside of Israel, however, court approval is not required if the proposed distribution is in the form of an equity repurchase, provided that we notify our creditors of the proposed equity repurchase and allow such creditors an opportunity to initiate a court proceeding to review the repurchase. If within 30 days such creditors do not file an objection, then we may proceed with the repurchase without obtaining court approval. In each case, we are only permitted to distribute a dividend if our board of directors and, if applicable, the court determines that there is no reasonable concern that payment of the dividend will prevent us from satisfying our existing and foreseeable obligations as they become due.
In the event of the Company’s liquidation, after satisfaction of liabilities to creditors, its assets will be distributed to the holders of Ordinary Shares in proportion to their shareholdings. This right, as well as the right to receive dividends, may be affected by the grant of preferential dividend or distribution rights to the holders of a class of shares with preferential rights which may be authorized in the future.

Exchange control
There are currently no Israeli currency control restrictions on remittances of dividends on Ordinary Shares, proceeds from the sale of the Ordinary Shares or interest or other payments to non-residents of Israel, except for shareholders who are subjects of countries that at the time are, or have been, in a state of war with Israel.
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, at such time and place, within or outside of Israel, as it may determine. In addition, the Companies Law provides that our board of directors is required to convene a special general meeting of our shareholders upon the written 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) As a company listed on an exchange in the U.S., one or more shareholders holding, in the aggregate, (i) 10% or more of our outstanding issued shares and 1% of our outstanding voting power or (ii) 10% or more of our outstanding voting power.
Under the Companies Law, one or more shareholders holding at least 1% of the voting rights at the general meeting of shareholders may request that the board of directors include a matter in the agenda of a general meeting of shareholders to be convened in the future, provided that it is appropriate to discuss such a matter at the general meeting. Notwithstanding the foregoing, as a company listed on an exchange outside of Israel, a matter relating to the appointment or removal of a director may only be requested by one or more shareholders holding at least 5% of the voting rights at the general meeting of the shareholders.
Our Articles of Association contain procedural guidelines and disclosure items with respect to the submission of shareholder proposals for general meetings. 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, as a company listed on an exchange outside Israel, may be between four and forty 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 Articles of Association; |
|---|---|
| ● | the exercise of our board of director’s 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; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | approval of acts and transactions requiring general meeting approval pursuant to the provisions of the Companies Law (mainly certain related party transactions and certain compensation matters) 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 and our Articles of Association require that a notice of any annual or special shareholders meeting be provided at least 14 or 21 days prior to the meeting (as applicable), and if the agenda of the meeting includes, among other things, the appointment or removal of directors, the approval of transactions with office holders or interested or related parties, approval of the company’s chief executive officer 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 power. 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 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 cancelled.
Adoption of Resolutions
Our Articles of Association provide that all resolutions of our shareholders require a simple majority vote, unless otherwise required under the Companies Law or our Articles of Association. A shareholder may vote in a general meeting in person, by proxy or by a written ballot.
In order to amend our Articles of Association, in addition and prior to the approval of a general meeting of shareholders, the approval of the board of directors with the affirmative vote of a majority of the directors then in office and entitled to vote thereon is required in order to approve any amendment to the Articles of Association.
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 Securitiesin Our Company
There are no limitations on the right to own our securities in our Articles of Association. In certain circumstances the IPO 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.
4
Access to Corporate Records
Under the Companies Law, all shareholders generally have the right to review minutes of our general meetings, our shareholder register (including with respect to material shareholders), our Articles of Association, our financial statements, other documents as provided in the Companies Law, and any document we are required by law to file publicly with the Israeli Registrar of Companies or the Israeli Securities Authority. Any shareholder who specifies the purpose of its request may request to review any document in our possession that relates to any action or transaction with a related party which requires shareholder approval under the Companies Law. We may deny a request to review a document if it determines that the request was not made in good faith, that the document contains a commercial secret or a patent or that the document’s disclosure may otherwise impair its interests.
Anti-Takeover Provisions
Acquisitions under Israeli Law
Full Tender Offer
A person wishing to acquire shares of a public Israeli company who would, as a result, hold over 90% of the target company’s voting rights or the target company’s issued and outstanding share capital (or of a class thereof), is required by the Companies Law to make a tender offer to all of the company’s shareholders for the purchase of all of the issued and outstanding shares of the company (or the applicable class). If (a) the shareholders who do not accept the offer hold less than 5% of the issued and outstanding share capital of the company (or the applicable class) and the shareholders who accept the offer constitute a majority of the offerees that do not have a personal interest in the acceptance of the tender offer or (b) the shareholders who did not accept the tender offer hold less than 2% of the issued and outstanding share capital of the company (or of the applicable class), all of the shares that the acquirer offered to purchase will be transferred to the acquirer by operation of law. A shareholder who had its shares so transferred may petition an Israeli court within six months from the date of acceptance of the full tender offer, regardless of whether such shareholder agreed to the offer, to determine whether the tender offer was for less than fair value and whether the fair value should be paid as determined by the court. However, an offeror may provide in the offer that a shareholder who accepted the offer will not be entitled to petition the court for appraisal rights as described in the preceding sentence, as long as the offeror and the company disclosed the information required by law in connection with the full tender offer. If the full tender offer was not accepted in accordance with any of the above alternatives, the acquirer may not acquire shares of the company that will increase its holdings to more than 90% of the company’s voting rights or the company’s issued and outstanding share capital (or of the applicable class) from shareholders who accepted the tender offer. Shares purchased in contradiction to the full tender offer rules under the Companies Law will have no rights and will become dormant shares.
Special Tender Offer
The Companies Law provides that an acquisition of shares of an Israeli public company must be made by means of a special tender offer if as a result of the acquisition the purchaser would become a holder of 25% or more of the voting rights in the company. This requirement does not apply if there is already another holder of 25% or more of the voting rights in the company. Similarly, the Companies Law provides that an acquisition of shares of an Israeli public company must be made by means of a special tender offer if as a result of the acquisition the purchaser would become a holder of more than 45% of the voting rights in the company, if there is no other shareholder of the company who holds more than 45% of the voting rights in the company. These requirements do not apply if (i) the acquisition occurs in the context of a private placement by the company that received shareholder approval as a private placement whose purpose is to give the purchaser 25% or more of the voting rights in the company, if there is no person who holds 25% or more of the voting rights in the company or as a private placement whose purpose is to give the purchaser 45% of the voting rights in the company, if there is no person who holds 45% of the voting rights in the company, (ii) the acquisition was from a shareholder holding 25% or more of the voting rights in the company and resulted in the purchaser becoming a holder of 25% or more of the voting rights in the company, or (iii) the acquisition was from a shareholder holding more than 45% of the voting rights in the company and resulted in the purchaser becoming a holder of more than 45% of the voting rights in the company. A special tender offer must be extended to all shareholders of a company. A special tender offer may be consummated only if (i) at least 5% of the voting power attached to the company’s outstanding shares will be acquired by the offeror and (ii) the number of shares tendered in the offer exceeds the number of shares whose holders objected to the offer (excluding the purchaser, its controlling shareholders, holders of 25% or more of the voting rights in the company and any person having a personal interest in the acceptance of the tender offer, or anyone on their behalf, including any such person’s relatives and entities under their control).
5
In the event that a special tender offer is made, a company’s board of directors is required to express its opinion on the advisability of the offer, or shall abstain from expressing any opinion if it is unable to do so, provided that it gives the reasons for its abstention. The board of directors shall also disclose any personal interest that any of the directors has with respect to the special tender offer or in connection therewith. An office holder in a target company who, in his or her capacity as an office holder, performs an action the purpose of which is to cause the failure of an existing or foreseeable special tender offer or is to impair the chances of its acceptance, is liable to the potential purchaser and shareholders for damages, unless such office holder acted in good faith and had reasonable grounds to believe he or she was acting for the benefit of the company. However, office holders of the target company may negotiate with the potential purchaser in order to improve the terms of the special tender offer, and may further negotiate with third parties in order to obtain a competing offer.
If a special tender offer is accepted, then shareholders who did not respond to or that had objected the offer may accept the offer within four days of the last day set for the acceptance of the offer and they will be considered to have accepted the offer from the first day it was made.
In the event that 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 at the time of the offer 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. Shares purchased in contradiction to the special tender offer rules under the Companies Law will have no rights and will become dormant shares.
Merger
The Companies Law permits merger transactions if approved by each party’s board of directors and, unless certain conditions described under the Companies Law are met, a simple majority of the outstanding shares of each party to the merger that are represented and voting on the merger. The board of directors of a merging company is required pursuant to the Companies Law to discuss and determine whether in its opinion there exists a reasonable concern that as a result of a proposed merger, the surviving company will not be able to satisfy its obligations towards its creditors, such determination taking into account the financial status of the merging companies. If the board of directors determines that such a concern exists, it may not approve a proposed merger. Following the approval of the board of directors of each of the merging companies, the boards of directors must jointly prepare a merger proposal for submission to the Israeli Registrar of Companies. For purposes of the shareholder vote of a merging company whose shares are held by the other merging company, or by a person or entity holding 25% or more of the voting rights at the general meeting of shareholders of the other merging company, or by a person or entity holding the right to appoint 25% or more of the directors of the other merging company, unless a court rules otherwise, the merger will not be deemed approved if a majority of the shares voted on the matter at the general meeting of shareholders (excluding abstentions) that are held by shareholders other than the other party to the merger, or by any person or entity who holds 25% or more of the voting rights of the other party or the right to appoint 25% or more of the directors of the other party, or any one on their behalf including their relatives or corporations controlled by any of them, vote against the merger. In addition, if the non-surviving entity of the merger has more than one class of shares, the merger must be approved by each class of shareholders. If the transaction would have been approved 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 request of holders of at least 25% of the voting rights of a company, if the court holds that the merger is fair and reasonable, taking into account the valuation of the merging companies and the consideration offered to the shareholders. If a merger is with a company’s 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.
6
Under the Companies Law, each merging company must deliver to its secured creditors the merger proposal and inform its unsecured creditors of the merger proposal and its content. 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 a merging company, and may further give instructions to secure the rights of creditors.
addition, a merger may not be completed unless at least 50 days have passed from the date that a proposal for approval of the merger is filed with the Israeli Registrar of Companies and 30 days from the date that shareholder approval of both merging companies is obtained.
Anti-Takeover Measures
The Companies Law allows us to create and issue shares having rights different from those attached to the Ordinary Shares, including shares providing certain preferred rights with respect to voting, distributions or other matters and shares having preemptive rights. No preferred shares are authorized under our Articles of Association. In the future, if we do authorize, create and issue a specific class of preferred shares, such class of shares, depending on the specific rights that may be attached to it, may have the ability to frustrate or prevent a takeover or otherwise prevent our shareholders from realizing a potential premium over the market value of the Ordinary Shares. The authorization and designation of a class of preferred shares will require an amendment to our Articles of Association, which requires the prior approval of the holders of a majority of the voting power attached to our issued and outstanding shares at a general meeting of our shareholders. The convening of the meeting, the shareholders entitled to participate and the vote required to be obtained at such a meeting will be subject to the requirements set forth in the Companies Law and our Articles of Association.” In addition, as disclosed under “— Election of Directors,” we have a classified board structure, which effectively limits the ability of any investor or potential investor or group of investors or potential investors to gain control of our board of directors.
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 Articles of Association provide that, unless the Company consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the competent courts in Tel Aviv, Israel shall be the exclusive forum for (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of the Company, (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any director, officer or other employee of the Company to the Company or the Company’s shareholders, or (iii) any action asserting a claim arising pursuant to any provision of the Companies Law or the Securities Law. Our Articles of Association further provide, that the federal district courts of the United States of America, shall be the exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause or causes of action arising under the Securities Act.
Transfer Agent and Registrar
The transfer agent and registrar for our Ordinary Shares is VStock Transfer, LLC. Its address is 18 Lafayette Place, Woodmere, New York 11598.
WARRANTS
As of the date of this Annual Report, we have issued and outstanding IPO Warrants to purchase up to 191 Ordinary Shares, with an exercise price of $ 43,749.16 per Ordinary Share, issued as part of our initial public listing, or IPO, and are listed on Nasdaq under the symbol “JFBRW” since August 26, 2022. Effective as of March 31, 2026, the symbol for our IPO Warrants was changed to “NEXRW”.
Exercisability. The IPO Warrants are exercisable at any time after their original issuance and at any time up to the date that is five years after their original issuance. The IPO Warrants will be exercisable, at the option of each holder, in whole or in part by delivering to the Company a duly executed exercise notice and, at any time a registration statement registering the issuance of the Ordinary Shares underlying the IPO Warrants under the Securities Act is effective and available for the issuance of such shares, by payment in full in immediately available funds for the number of Ordinary Shares purchased upon such exercise. If a registration statement registering the issuance of the Ordinary Shares underlying the IPO Warrants under the Securities Act is not effective or available the holder may, in its sole discretion, elect to exercise the IPO Warrant through a cashless exercise, in which case the holder would receive upon such exercise the net number of Ordinary Shares determined according to the formula set forth in the IPO Warrant. No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the exercise of an IPO Warrant. In lieu of fractional shares, we will pay the holder an amount in cash equal to the fractional amount multiplied by the exercise price.
Exercise Limitation. A holder will not have the right to exercise any portion of the IPO 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 IPO 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 the Company.
Exercise Price. The exercise price 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 and also upon any distributions of assets, including cash, stock or other property to our stockholders.
*Home Country Practice.*For so long as any of the IPO Warrants remains outstanding, the Company will elect to follow home country practice in lieu of any rules and regulations of the trading market that would limit the Company’s ability to effect the provisions of the IPO Warrants, including but not limited to shareholder approval rules related to the issuance of securities or adjustment of terms of the IPO Warrant for the benefit of warrant holders.
Transferability. Subject to applicable laws, the IPO Warrants may be offered for sale, sold, transferred or assigned without our consent.
Warrant Agent. The IPO Warrants were issued in registered form under a warrant agent agreement between VStock Transfer, LLC, as warrant agent, and the Company. The IPO Warrants were initially represented only by one or more global warrants deposited with the warrant agent, as custodian on behalf of The Depository Trust Company, or DTC, and registered in the name of Cede & Co., a nominee of DTC, or as otherwise directed by DTC.
8
*Fundamental Transactions.*In the event of a Fundamental Transaction (as defined in the IPO Warrant) 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 50% of the voting power represented by our outstanding Ordinary Shares, the holders of the IPO Warrants will be entitled to receive upon exercise of the IPO Warrants the number of Ordinary Shares of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the surviving corporation, or depositary shares representing those shares, and any additional consideration receivable as a result of such Fundamental Transaction by holders of the number of Ordinary Shares for which the IPO Warrants are exercisable immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction without regard to any limitations on exercise contained in the IPO Warrants. The holders of the IPO Warrants may also require us or any successor entity to purchase the IPO Warrants from the holders by paying to the holder an amount in cash (or other types or form of consideration in special circumstances listed in the IPO Warrant) equal to the Black Scholes value of the remaining unexercised portion of the IPO Warrant on the date of the fundamental transaction.
*Rights as a Stockholder.*Except as otherwise provided in the IPO Warrants or by virtue of such holder’s ownership of our Ordinary Shares, the holder of an IPO 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.
*Right of Participation.*Subject to certain exceptions, a holder of at least 120,192 IPO Warrants as of the time the Company engages in a subsequent placement (as defined in the IPO Warrant) will be entitled to participate in such subsequent placement subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Warrant.
Governing Law. The IPO Warrants and the warrant agent agreement are governed by New York law.
Exclusive Forum
The agreements governing the IPO Warrants provide that, and by purchasing IPO Warrants in this offering investors will agree that, all legal proceedings concerning the interpretations, enforcement and defense of the transactions contemplated by the IPO Warrant (whether brought against a party hereto or their respective affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, partners, members, employees or agents) will be commenced exclusively in the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York, irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York, Borough of Manhattan for the adjudication of any such dispute and irrevocably waive, and agree not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is improper or is an inconvenient venue for such proceeding. The warrant agent agreement has a similar provision. In addition, the warrant agent agreement provides that the Company and the warrant agent each waive the right to a trial by jury in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to the warrant agent agreement. Each of the agreement governing the IPO Warrants and the warrant agent agreement provide that the foregoing provisions do not limit or restrict the federal district court in which a party may bring a claim under the U.S. federal securities laws.

InsiderTrading Compliance Policy
U.S. federal securities laws prohibit trading in the securities of a company while in possession of material nonpublic information with an intent to deceive and in breach of a duty of trust or confidence and providing material nonpublic information to others so that they can trade. Violating such laws can undermine investor trust, harm our company’s reputation, and result in your dismissal from Nexera Technologies Ltd (together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”) or even serious criminal and civil charges against you and the Company.
This Insider Trading Compliance Policy (this “Policy”) outlines your responsibilities to avoid insider trading and implements certain procedures to help you avoid even the appearance of insider trading.
I.Summary
Preventing insider trading is necessary to comply with U.S. federal securities laws and to preserve the reputation and integrity of the Company. “Insider trading” occurs when any person purchases or sells a security while in possession of material nonpublic information relating to the security in breach of a duty of trust or confidence. Insider trading is a crime. The criminal penalties for violating insider trading laws include imprisonment and fines of up to $5 million for individuals and $25 million for corporations. Insider trading may also result in civil penalties, including disgorgement of profits and civil fines. Insider trading is also prohibited by this Policy, and violation of this Policy may result in Company-imposed sanctions, including removal or dismissal for cause.
This Policy applies to all officers, directors, and employees of the Company, and the Company may determine that this Policy applies to additional persons with access to material nonpublic information, such as contractors or consultants (collectively, “Covered Persons”). In all cases, as someone subject to this Policy, you bear full responsibility for ensuring your compliance with this Policy, and also for ensuring that members of your household, individuals not residing in your household but whose transactions are subject to your influence or control and entities under your influence or control are in compliance with this Policy. Every Covered Person must review this Policy. This Policy extends to all activities within and outside your Company duties. Questions regarding the Policy should be directed to the Company’s Compliance Officer.
For purposes of this Policy, the “Compliance Officer” shall be the Company’s General Counsel; provided that if the General Counsel is unavailable or personally involved in the transaction at issue or if no General Counsel is appointed, the Compliance Officer shall be the Company’s Chief Financial Officer.
Actions taken by the Company, the Compliance Officer, or any other Company personnel do not constitute legal advice, nor do they insulate you from the consequences of noncompliance with this Policy.
Statement of Policies Prohibiting Insider Trading
Unless otherwise permitted by this Policy, you must not (a) purchase sell, gift or otherwise transfer any security of the Company while you possess material nonpublic information about the Company or (b) purchase, sell, gift or otherwise transfer any security of any other company, while you possess material nonpublic information about the other company that you obtained in connection with your employment by or service to the Company.
These prohibitions do not apply to:
| ● | purchases of the Company’s<br> securities from the Company or sales of the Company’s securities to the Company; |
|---|
2
| ● | exercises of stock options<br> or other equity awards or the surrender of shares to the Company in payment of the exercise price or in satisfaction of any tax withholding<br> obligations in a manner permitted by the applicable equity award agreement, or vesting of equity-based awards that, in each case,<br> do not involve a market sale of the Company’s securities (the “cashless exercise” of a Company stock option through<br> a broker does involve a market sale of the Company’s securities, and therefore would not qualify under this exception); |
|---|---|
| ● | gift transactions for family<br> or estate planning purposes, where securities are gifted to a person or entity subject to this policy; or |
| --- | --- |
| ● | purchases or sales of the<br> Company’s securities made pursuant to any binding contract, specific instruction or written plan entered into while the purchaser<br> or seller, as applicable, was unaware of any material nonpublic information and which contract, instruction, or plan (i) meets all<br> requirements of the affirmative defense provided by Rule 10b5-1 (“Rule 10b5-1”) promulgated under the Securities Exchange<br> Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”), (ii) was precleared in advance pursuant to this Policy and (iii) has not been<br> amended or modified in any respect after such initial preclearance without such amendment or modification being precleared in advance<br> pursuant to this Policy. For more information about Rule 10b5-1 trading plans, see Section VI below. |
| --- | --- |
From time to time, events will occur that are material to the Company and cause certain officers, directors, or employees to be in possession of material nonpublic information. When that happens, the Company will recommend that those in possession of the material nonpublic information suspend all trading in the Company’s securities until the information is no longer material or has been publicly disclosed.
When such event-specific blackout periods occur, those subject to it will be notified by the Company. The event-specific blackout period will not be announced to those not subject to it, and those subject to it or otherwise aware of it should not disclose it to others.
Even if the Company has not notified you that you are subject to an event-specific blackout period, if you are aware of material nonpublic information about the Company, you should not trade in Company securities. Any failure by the Company to designate you as subject to an event-specific blackout period, or to notify you of such designation, does not relieve you of your obligation not to trade in the Company’s securities while possessing material nonpublic information.
No officer, director, or employee shall directly or indirectly communicate (or “tip”) material nonpublic information to anyone outside the Company (except in accordance with the Company’s policies regarding the protection or authorized external disclosure of Company information) or to anyone within the Company other than on a “need-to-know” basis.
II.Explanation of Insider Trading
“Insider trading” refers to the purchase or sale of a security while in possession of material nonpublic information relating to the security with an intent to deceive and in breach of a duty of trust or confidence.
*“Securities”*includes stocks, bonds, notes, debentures, options, warrants, and other convertible securities, as well as derivative instruments.
*“Purchase”*and “sale” are defined broadly under the federal securities law. “Purchase” includes not only the actual purchase of a security, but any contract to purchase or otherwise acquire a security. *“Sale”*includes not only the actual sale of a security, but any contract to sell or otherwise dispose of a security. These definitions extend to a broad range of transactions, including conventional cash-for-stock transactions, conversions, the exercise of stock options, and acquisitions and exercises of warrants or puts, calls, or other derivative securities.
3
A.What Facts Are Material?
The materiality of a fact depends upon the circumstances. A fact is considered “material” if there is a substantial likelihood that a reasonable investor would consider it important in making a decision to buy, sell, or hold a security, or if the fact is likely to have a significant effect on the market price of the security. Material information can be positive or negative and can relate to virtually any aspect of a company’s business or to any type of security, debt, or equity. Also, information that something is likely to happen in the future—or even just that it may happen—could be deemed material.
Examples of material information include (but are not limited to) information about corporate earnings or earnings forecasts; possible mergers, acquisitions, tender offers, or dispositions; dividends; major new products or product developments; important business developments such as major contract awards or cancellations, developments regarding strategic collaborators, or the status of regulatory submissions; management or control changes; significant borrowing or financing developments, including pending public sales or offerings of debt or equity securities; defaults on borrowings; bankruptcies; cybersecurity or data security incidents; and significant litigation or regulatory actions. Moreover, material information does not have to be related to a company’s business. For example, the contents of a forthcoming newspaper column that is expected to affect the market price of a security can be material.
Questions regarding material information should be directed to the Compliance Officer. A good rule of thumb: When in doubt, do not trade.
B.What Is Nonpublic?
Information is “nonpublic” if it is not available to the general public. In order for information to be considered public, it must be widely disseminated in a manner making it generally available to investors, through newswire services such as Dow Jones, Reuters, Bloomberg, Business Wire, The Wall Street Journal, Associated Press, or United Press International; broadcasts on widely available radio or television programs; publication in a widely available newspaper, magazine, or news website; a Regulation FD-compliant conference call; or public disclosure documents filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) that are available on the SEC’s website. Note that simply posting information to the Company’s website may not be sufficient disclosure to make the information public.
The circulation of rumors, even if accurate and reported in the media, does not constitute effective public dissemination. In addition, even after a public announcement, a reasonable period of time must lapse in order for the market to react to the information. Generally, one should allow two full trading days following publication as a reasonable waiting period before such information is deemed to be public.
C.Who Is an Insider?
“Insiders” include officers, directors, and any employees of a company, or anyone else who has material nonpublic information about a company. Insiders have independent fiduciary duties to their company and its stockholders not to trade on material nonpublic information relating to the company’s securities. Insiders may not trade in the Company’s securities while in possession of material nonpublic information relating to the Company, nor may they tip such information to anyone outside the Company (except in accordance with the Company’s policies regarding the protection or authorized external disclosure of Company information) or to anyone within the Company other than on a “need-to-know” basis.
D.Trading by Persons Other Than Insiders
Insiders may be liable for communicating or tipping material nonpublic information to a third party (“tippee”), and insider trading violations are not limited to trading or tipping by insiders. Persons other than insiders can also be liable for insider trading, including tippees who trade on material nonpublic information tipped to them or individuals who trade on material nonpublic information that has been misappropriated. Insiders may be held liable for tipping even if they receive no personal benefit from tipping and even if no close personal relationship exists between them and the tippee.
4
Penalties for Engaging in Insider Trading
Penalties for trading on or tipping material nonpublic information can extend significantly beyond any profits made or losses avoided, both for individuals engaging in such unlawful conduct and their employers. The SEC and Department of Justice have made the civil and criminal prosecution of insider trading violations a top priority. Enforcement remedies available to the government or private plaintiffs under the federal securities laws include:
| ● | SEC administrative sanctions; |
|---|---|
| ● | securities industry self-regulatory organization sanctions; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | civil injunctions; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | damage awards to private plaintiffs; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | disgorgement of all profits; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | civil fines for the violator<br> of up to three times the amount of profit gained or loss avoided; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | civil fines for the employer<br> or other controlling person of a violator (i.e., where the violator is an employee or other controlled person) of up to the greater<br> of $1.525 million or three times the amount of profit gained or loss avoided by the violator; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | criminal fines for individual<br> violators of up to $5 million ($25 million for an entity); and |
| --- | --- |
| ● | jail sentences of up to 20<br> years. |
| --- | --- |
In addition, insider trading could result in serious sanctions by the Company, including dismissal. Insider trading violations are not limited to violations of the federal securities laws. Other federal and state civil or criminal laws, such as the laws prohibiting mail and wire fraud and the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO), may also be violated in connection with insider trading.
E.Size of Transaction and Reason for Transaction Do Not Matter
The size of the transaction or the amount of profit received does not have to be significant to result in prosecution. The SEC has the ability to monitor even the smallest trades, and the SEC performs routine market surveillance. Brokers or dealers are required by law to inform the SEC of any possible violations by people who may have material nonpublic information. The SEC aggressively investigates even small insider trading violations.
Statement of Procedures to Prevent Insider Trading
The following procedures have been established, and will be maintained and enforced, by the Company to prevent insider trading.
A.Blackout Periods
The period during which the Company prepares quarterly financials is a sensitive time for insider trading purposes, as Company personnel may be more likely to possess, or be presumed to possess, material nonpublic information. To avoid the appearance of impropriety and assist Company personnel in planning transactions in the Company’s securities for appropriate times, no officer, director, or employee shall purchase, sell, gift or otherwise transfer of the Company during the period beginning on the 14th calendar day before the end of any fiscal quarter of the Company and ending upon completion of the second full trading day after the public release of earnings data for such fiscal quarter or during any other trading suspension period declared by the Company, except for:
| ● | purchases<br> of the Company’s securities from the Company or sales of the Company’s securities to the Company; |
|---|
5
| ● | exercises<br> of stock options or other equity awards, the surrender of shares to the Company in payment of the exercise price or in satisfaction<br> of any tax withholding obligations in a manner permitted by the applicable equity award agreement, or the vesting of equity-based<br> awards that do not involve a market sale of the Company’s securities (the cashless exercise of a Company stock option through<br> a broker does involve a market sale of the Company’s securities, and therefore would not qualify under this exception); |
|---|---|
| ● | gift transactions<br> for family or estate planning purposes, where securities are gifted to a person or entity subject to this policy; and |
| --- | --- |
| ● | purchases<br> or sales of the Company’s securities made pursuant to any binding contract, specific instruction, or written plan entered into<br> while the purchaser or seller, as applicable, was unaware of any material nonpublic information and which contract, instruction,<br> or plan (i) meets all requirements of the affirmative defense provided by Rule 10b5-1, (ii) was precleared in advance pursuant to<br> this Policy, and (iii) has not been amended or modified in any respect after such initial preclearance without such amendment or<br> modification being precleared in advance pursuant to this Policy. |
| --- | --- |
Exceptions to the blackout period policy may be approved only by the Company’s General Counsel or Chief Financial Officer or, in the case of exceptions for officers and directors, the Board of Directors or Audit Committee of the Board of Directors.
From time to time, the Company, through the Board of Directors or Compliance Officer or Chief Financial Officer, may instruct that officers, directors, employees, or others suspend trading in the Company’s securities because of developments that have not yet been disclosed to the public. Subject to the exceptions noted above, all those affected should not trade in the Company’s securities while the suspension is in effect, and should not disclose to others that the Company has suspended trading.
B.Preclearance of All Trades by All Officers, Directors and Certain Key Employees
To provide assistance in preventing inadvertent violations of applicable securities laws and to avoid the appearance of impropriety in connection with the purchase and sale of the Company’s securities, all transactions in the Company’s securities (including, without limitation, acquisitions and dispositions of Company stock, the exercise of stock options, and the sale of Company stock issued upon exercise of stock options) by officers and directors (each, a “Preclearance Person”) must be precleared by the Company’s Compliance Officer, except for certain exempt transactions as explained in Section VI of this Policy.
A request for preclearance must be in writing at least two business days in advance of the proposed transaction. Such preclearance request form must include a description of the proposed transaction, the proposed date of the transaction, the number of shares or other securities to be involved and a certification that the Preclearance Person is not aware of material nonpublic information about the Company. The Compliance Officer shall have sole discretion to decide whether to clear any contemplated transaction. All trades that are precleared must be effected within five business days of receipt of the preclearance, unless a specific exception has been granted by the Compliance Officer. A precleared trade (or any portion of a precleared trade) that has not been effected during the five business day period must be precleared again prior to execution. Notwithstanding receipt of preclearance, if the Preclearance Person becomes aware of material nonpublic information or becomes subject to a blackout period before the transaction is effected, the transaction may not be completed.
None of the Company, the Compliance Officer, or the Company’s other employees will have any liability for any delay in reviewing, or refusal of, a request for preclearance submitted pursuant to this Section IV.B. Notwithstanding any preclearance of a transaction pursuant to this Section IV.B, none of the Company, the Compliance Officer, or the Company’s other employees assumes any liability for the legality or consequences of such transaction to the person engaging in such transaction.

Section16 Matters for Directors and Officers
Section 16 (“Section 16”) of the 1934 Act, and the related rules and regulations, set forth obligations and limitations applicable to certain persons at a company. The Company’s Board of Directors has determined and notified those persons who are required to comply with Section 16, and the related rules and regulations, because of their positions with the Company.
The timely reporting of transactions requires tight interface with brokers handling transactions for persons that are subject to Section 16. A knowledgeable, alert broker can also serve as a gatekeeper, helping to ensure compliance with the Company’s pre-clearance procedures and helping prevent inadvertent violations. Therefore, in order to facilitate timely compliance with the requirements of Section 16, persons subject to Section 16 need to make sure that their brokers comply with the following requirements:
| ● | not<br> enter any order (except for orders under pre-approved Rule 10b5-1 trading plans) without<br> first verifying with the Company that a transaction was pre-cleared and complying with the<br> brokerage firm’s compliance procedures (e.g., Rule 144); and |
|---|---|
| ● | report<br> before the close of business on the day of the execution of the transaction to the Company<br> in writing via e-mail to the Compliance Officer, and if receipt is not verified in writing<br> by the Company, also verify receipt by telephone, the complete details of every transaction<br> (i.e., date, type of transaction, number of shares and price) involving the Company’s<br> equity securities, including gifts, transfers, pledges and all transactions under 10b5-1<br> and other trading plans. |
| --- | --- |
Because it is the legal obligation of the trading person to cause any filings on Form 3, Form 4, Form 5 or Form 144 (or as may otherwise be required) to be made, you are strongly encouraged to confirm following any transaction that your broker has immediately e-mailed the required information to the Company and confirmed receipt of such information.
C.Post-Termination Transactions
With the exception of the preclearance requirement, this Policy continues to apply to transactions in the Company’s securities even after termination of service to the Company. If you are in possession of material nonpublic information when your service terminates, you may not trade in the Company’s securities until that information has become public or is no longer material. If you were subject to an event-specific blackout period or quarterly blackout period at the time of your termination of service to the Company, you must not purchase, sell, gift or otherwise transfer any security of the Company while such blackout period remains in effect.
D.Information Relating to the Company
1.Access to Information
Access to material nonpublic information about the Company, including the Company’s business, earnings, or prospects, should be limited to officers, directors, and employees of the Company on a “need-to-know” basis. In addition, such information should not be communicated to anyone outside the Company under any circumstances (except in accordance with the Company’s policies regarding the protection or authorized external disclosure of Company information) or to anyone within the Company on an other than “need-to-know” basis.
In communicating material nonpublic information to employees of the Company, all officers, directors, and employees must take care to emphasize the need for confidential treatment of such information and adherence to the Company’s policies with regard to confidential information.
7
2.Inquiries From Third Parties
Inquiries from third parties, such as industry analysts or members of the media, about the Company should be directed to the Chief Financial Officer at ronen@jeffsbrands.com.
III.Additional Prohibited Transactions
The Company has determined that there is a heightened legal risk and/or the appearance of improper or inappropriate conduct if the persons subject to this Policy engage in certain types of transactions. Therefore, officers, directors, and employees shall comply with the following policies with respect to certain transactions in the Company securities:
A.Short Sales
Short sales of the Company’s securities evidence an expectation on the part of the seller that the securities will decline in value, and therefore signal to the market that the seller has no confidence in the Company or its short-term prospects. In addition, short sales may reduce the seller’s incentive to improve the Company’s performance. For these reasons, short sales of the Company’s securities are prohibited by this Policy.
B.Publicly Traded Options
A transaction in options is, in effect, a bet on the short-term movement of the Company’s stock and therefore creates the appearance that an officer, director, or employee is trading based on material nonpublic information. Transactions in options may also focus an officer’s, director’s, or employee’s attention on short-term performance at the expense of the Company’s long-term objectives. Accordingly, transactions in puts, calls, or other derivative securities involving the Company’s equity securities, on an exchange or in any other organized market, are prohibited by this Policy.
C.Hedging Transactions
Certain forms of hedging or monetization transactions, such as zero-cost collars and forward sale contracts, allow an officer, director, or employee to lock in much of the value of his or her stock holdings, often in exchange for all or part of the potential for upside appreciation in the stock. Such transactions allow the officer, director, or employee to continue to own the covered securities, but without the full risks and rewards of ownership. When that occurs, the officer, director, or employee may no longer have the same objectives as the Company’s other stockholders. Therefore, such transactions involving the Company’s equity securities are prohibited by this Policy.
D.Purchases of the Company’s Securities on Margin; Pledging the Company’s Securities to Secure Margin or Other Loans
Purchasing on margin means borrowing from a brokerage firm, bank, or other entity in order to purchase the Company’s securities (other than in connection with a cashless exercise of stock options under the Company’s equity plans). Margin purchases of the Company’s securities are prohibited by this Policy. Pledging the Company’s securities as collateral to secure loans is also prohibited. This prohibition means, among other things, that you cannot hold the Company’s securities in a “margin account” (which would allow you to borrow against your holdings to buy securities).
8
IV.Rule 10b5-1 Trading Plans
The trading restrictions set forth do not apply to transactions under a previously established contract, plan, or instruction to trade in the Company’s stock in accordance with the terms of Rule 10b5-1 and all applicable state laws (a “Trading Plan”) that:
| ● | has been<br> submitted to and preapproved by the Company’s Compliance Officer, or such other person as the Board of Directors may designate<br> from time to time (the “Authorizing Officer”), at least 30 days before the commencement of any transactions under the<br> Trading Plan, with directors and senior management subject to a longer “cooling-off period” that extends to the later<br> of 90 days after adoption or modification of a Trading Plan or two (2) business days after filing the Form 20-F or Form 6-K with<br> financial results covering the fiscal quarter in which Trading Plan was adopted, up to a maximum of 120 days; |
|---|---|
| ● | you entered<br> into in good faith and not as part of a plan or scheme to evade the prohibitions of Rule 10b5-1 at a time when you were not in possession<br> of material nonpublic information about the Company, and, to the extent required by Rule 10b5-1, contains representations in the<br> Trading Plan certifying as to the same; and either (i) specifies the amounts, prices, and dates of all security transactions under<br> the Trading Plan, (ii) provides a written formula, algorithm, or computer program for determining the amount, price, and date of<br> the transactions, or (iii) prohibits you from exercising any subsequent influence over the transactions. |
| --- | --- |
You may only adopt more than one Trading Plan at a time if the adoption of an additional Trading Plan is under the limited circumstances permitted by Rule 10b5-1. You may only amend a Trading Plan outside of quarterly trading blackout periods when you do not possess material nonpublic information. Any amendment of a Trading Plan must be preapproved by the Authorizing Officer at least 30 days before you trade under an amended Trading Plan, with directors and senior management subject to a longer “cooling-off period” that extends to the later of 90 days after adoption or modification of a Trading Plan or two (2) business days after filing the Form 20-F or Form 6-K with financial results covering the fiscal quarter in which a Trading Plan was adopted, up to a maximum of 120 days and as required by Rule 10b5-1 for certain amendments (i.e. those that change the amount, price, or timing of purchases or sales). However, previously scheduled trades under the Trading Plan before its amendment may continue until the amended Trading Plan takes effect. Revocation of a Trading Plan should occur only in unusual circumstances. Effectiveness of any revocation or amendment of a Trading Plan will be subject to the prior review and approval of the Compliance Officer.
Although non-discretionary Trading Plans are preferred, discretionary Trading Plans, where the discretion or control over trading is transferred to a broker, are permitted if pre-approved by the Compliance Officer.
The Company reserves the right to publicly announce, or respond to inquiries from the media regarding, the implementation of Trading Plans or the execution of transactions made under a Trading Plan. The Company also reserves the right, from time to time, to suspend, discontinue, or otherwise prohibit transactions under a Trading Plan if the Authorizing Officer or the Board of Directors, in its discretion, determines that such suspension, discontinuation, or other prohibition is in the best interests of the Company. Transactions prohibited under Section V of this Policy, including short sales and hedging transactions, may not be carried out through a Trading Plan.
Compliance of a Trading Plan with the terms of Rule 10b5-1 and the execution of transactions pursuant to the Trading Plan are the sole responsibility of the person initiating the Trading Plan, and none of the Company, the Authorizing Officer, or the Company’s other employees assume any liability for any delay in reviewing and/or refusing a Trading Plan submitted for approval nor the legality or consequences relating to a person entering into or trading under a Trading Plan.
If required, an SEC Form 144 will be filled out and filed by the individual/brokerage firm in accordance with the existing rules regarding Form 144 filings. A footnote at the bottom of the Form 144 should indicate that the trades are in accordance with a Trading Plan that complies with Rule 10b5-1 and noting the expiration date of such Trading Plan.
