| NOTE 1:- | GENERAL |
| a. | Sativus Tech Corp. (the “Company”), was formed on January 16, 2015 under the laws of the State of Delaware. Prior to September 14th, 2018, the Company was solely a provider of risk management and asset protection (“RAP”) services for businesses, individuals and families. From September 14, 2018 through to December 31, 2019, the Company shifted its business to producing a plant growing device managed and controlled by an artificial intelligent algorithm, allowing consumers to grow their own herbs and vegetables effortlessly from seed to plant, while providing optimal conditions to assure premium quality produce year-round and on September 17, 2018, the Board of Directors adopted an Amendment to its Articles, changing the name of the Corporation to Seedo Corp. On December 13, 2021, the Company changed its name from Seedo Corp to Sativus Tech Corp. |
On July 19, 2020, the Company formed a new wholly-owned subsidiary in Israel, Hachevra Legiduley Pkaot Beisrael Ltd. (the “New Subsidiary”), to develop a fully automated and remotely managed system for growing saffron and other vegetables. On November 5, 2020, the New Subsidiary changed its name to Saffron-Tech Ltd. (“Saffron Tech”).
The Company, through Saffron Tech, is focusing on its in-house research and development of agriculture technology products, among others, in the fields of exotic plants and mushrooms. Saffron Tech plans to roll out its proof of concept in the coming months. This technology will provide turnkey automated growing containers for high-quality, high-yield saffron all year round. The Company is in advanced stages of developing and testing a fully automated and remotely managed system for growing high-quality, high-yield saffron anywhere and anytime.
Saffron is used in many industries, such as the food industry, particularly by famous chefs and Michelin starred restaurants, the natural cosmetics industry and the natural medicine industry and as a dye in the textile industry. Medicinal claims as an anti-depressant, antioxidant, and antiseptic are constantly increasing.
During July 2022, Saffron Tech received

On December 9, 2021, the Company implemented a 1-for-10 consolidation, or reverse split, of the Company’s issued and outstanding common shares. Except where otherwise indicated, all share and per share data in these financial statements have been retroactively restated to reflect the reverse stock split.
The Company’s proof of concept utilizes the “Grow Next to Consumer” policy and is therefore sustainable and fit the COVID-19 restrictions on transport. It is also environmentally friendly, using economic levels of water, space, fertilizer, and energy. Accounting to the Company’s calculations, we believe that the controlled indoor growing area will produce ten times more yield compared to the same land area using traditional methods. The sealed environment eliminates the need for harmful pesticides and herbicides, producing a clean and safe product that is easy to control from anywhere. The Company’s solution is easily scalable and pre-designed to quickly grow operations
| b. | The Company has an accumulated deficit in the total amount of $ |
The Company intends to finance operating costs over the next twelve months with existing cash on hand, reducing operating spend, and future issuances of equity and debt securities, or through a combination of the foregoing. However, the Company will need to seek additional sources of financing if the Company requires more funds than anticipated during the next 12 months or in later periods.
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.
The consolidated financial statements for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2022, do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from uncertainty related to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

| c. | The COVID-19 pandemic, which originated in China in late 2019, has since spread across the globe and affected the economic condition of most, if not all, countries, including the United States, Israel and many countries in Europe. On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak a pandemic. While COVID-19 is still spreading and the final implications of the pandemic are difficult to estimate at this stage, it is clear that it has affected the lives of a large portion of the global population. As of September 30, 2022, the pandemic has caused repeated states of emergency to be declared in various countries, ongoing and extended travel restrictions have been imposed for several months, strict quarantines rules have been established and maintained for an extended period of time in a plethora of jurisdictions and various institutions and companies have been closed and rendered bankrupt. The Company is actively monitoring the pandemic and is taking any necessary measures to respond to the situation in cooperation with the various stakeholders. Due to the uncertainty surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company will continue to assess the situation, including government-imposed restrictions, market by market. It is not possible at this time to estimate the full impact that the COVID-19 pandemic could have on the Company’s business, the continued spread of COVID-19, and any additional measures taken by governments, health officials or by the Company in response to such spread, could have on the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition. The COVID-19 pandemic and mitigation measures have also negatively impacted global economic conditions, which, in turn, could adversely affect the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition. The extent to which the COVID-19 outbreak continues to impact the Company’s financial condition will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including new government actions or restrictions, new information that may emerge concerning the severity, longevity and impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on economic activity. |

Fair value of financial instruments
ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC 820”), defines fair value 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 Company 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 of the Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the Company’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 — | Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets that the Company has the ability to access. | |
| Level 2 — | Valuations based on one or more quoted prices in markets that are not active or for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly. | |
| Level 3 — | Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. |
The fair value hierarchy also requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, short term deposits, trade receivables, trade payables and short-term loan approximate their fair value due to the short-term maturity of such instruments.
The Company elected to measure some of the convertible loans under the fair value option. Under the fair value option the convertible loans will be measured at fair value in each reporting period until they will be converted, with changes in the fair values being recognized in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations as financial income or expense. The proceeds received for the issuance of the convertible loans were allocated at fair value conducted on an arm’s-length basis.
The Company’s financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis by level within the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements.

Further information on potential factors that could affect our business is described under the heading “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. Readers are also urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures we have made in that report.
When used in this quarterly report, the terms “Sativus,” “the Company,” “we,” “our,” and “us” refer to SATIVUS TECH CORP., a Delaware corporation, unless otherwise indicated or as otherwise required by the context.
Company Overview
Sativus Tech Corp. (the “Company”) was formed on January 16, 2015, under the laws of the State of Delaware. Prior to September 14th, 2018, the Company was solely a provider of risk management and asset protection (“RAP”) services for businesses, individuals and families. On September 14th, 2018, executed an Acquisition and Share Exchange Agreement with Eroll Grow Tech Ltd. (“Eroll”), an Israeli Corporation that was formed on May 18th, 2015, under the laws of the state of Israel. On September 17, 2018, the Board of Directors adopted an Amendment to its Articles, changing the name of the Corporation to SEEDO CORP. Since the Acquisition of Eroll and through to December 31, 2019, Eroll produced a plant growing device managed and controlled by an artificial intelligent algorithm, allowing consumers to grow their own herbs and vegetables effortlessly from seed to plant, while providing optimal conditions to assure premium quality produce year-round. On December 13, 2021, the Company changed its name from Seedo Corp to Sativus Tech Corp.

On July 19, 2020, the Company formed a new wholly-owned subsidiary in Israel, Hachevra Legiduley Pkaot Beisrael Ltd. (the “New Subsidiary”), to develop a fully automated and remotely managed system for growing saffron and other vegetables. On November 5, 2020, the New Subsidiary changed its name to Saffron-Tech Ltd. (“Saffron Tech”).
The Company, through Saffron Tech, is focusing on its in-house research and development of agriculture technology products, among others, in the fields of exotic plants and mushrooms. Saffron Tech plans to roll out its proof of concept in the coming months. This technology will provide turnkey automated growing containers for high-quality, high-yield saffron all year round. The Company is in advanced stages of developing and testing a fully automated and remotely managed system for growing high-quality, high-yield saffron anywhere and anytime.
The Company’s proof of concept utilizes the “Grow Next to Consumer” policy and is therefore sustainable and fit the COVID-19 restrictions on transport. It is also environmentally friendly, using economic levels of water, space, fertilizer, and energy. Accounting to the Company’s calculations, we believe that the controlled indoor growing area will produce ten times more yield compared to the same land area using traditional methods. The sealed environment eliminates the need for harmful pesticides and herbicides, producing a clean and safe product that is easy to control from anywhere. The Company’s solution is easily scalable and pre-designed to quickly grow operations.
Saffron is used in many industries, such as the food industry, particularly by famous chefs and Michelin starred restaurants, the natural cosmetics industry, and the natural medicine industry and as a dye in the textile industry. Medicinal claims as an anti-depressant, antioxidant, and antiseptic are constantly increasing.
On December 8, 2021, Saffron Tech announced it has begun construction of a new state-of-the-art indoor farm that will help increase its production of the saffron spice. Saffron Tech has already successfully completed two harvests of saffron using vertical farming technology at its initial location in Ganot, Israel. The Company’s mission with this new facility, located at Mavki’im, Israel, is to complete a third cycle to triple the amount of saffron produced annually. Traditional agriculture only produces one harvest of saffron per year through a labor-intensive process.
On December 9, 2021, FINRA gave final approval for the Company’s 1-for-10 consolidation, or reverse split, of our issued and outstanding common shares, as noted in our 8K of December 13, 2021. Except where otherwise indicated, all share and per share data in these financial statements have been retroactively restated to reflect said consolidation.
On January 6, 2022, the Company announced that its subsidiary, Saffron Tech, has planted approximately 25,000 Saffron bulbs in fields in the Golan Heights, in Norther Israel. The planation is being managed in conjunction with the Shamir Research Institute, which operates under the auspices of the Haifa University, Israel.
On April 4, 2022, the Company appointed Mrs. Tal Wilk-Glazer as Director and CEO of the Company. Gadi Levin stepped down as CEO and remains the Company’s CFO. On the same day, Mr. Moshe Bar Siman Tov and Mrs. Iris Ginsburg resigned from their positions as Directors. Their resignation was not the result of any disputes with the Company.
From June 2022 through to August 2022, Saffron Tech entered into a number of Simple Agreement for Future Equity (“2022 SAFES”) agreements with third parties for gross proceeds of approximately $239.
During July 2022, Saffron Tech received a total of $100 in respect of the issuance of 76,890 shares to third party investors at price of NIS 4.5 per share (approximate $1.36 per share). The investors also received an option to convert the shares of Saffron Tech into shares of the Company. The option expires on January 1, 2023.
On August 30, 2022, the Company announced that Saffron Tech has announced its intention to raise up to 5 million New Israeli Shekels (“NIS”) (approximately $1.5 million) at a pre-money valuation of NIS 32.5 million (approximately $10 million) through the Israeli crowd funding platform – Pipelbiz. Assuming the maximum amount is raised, the Company will own approximately 61% of the Saffron Tech. As of the day of this report the Saffron Tech has raised $ 0.6 million.

Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial statement presentation and in accordance with Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required in annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position and results of operations and cash flows. The results of operations presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any other interim period or for the entire year.
These unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with our December 31, 2021, annual financial statements included in our Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on March 31, 2022.
Going Concern
Due to the uncertainty of our ability to meet our current operating and capital expenses, our independent auditors included an explanatory paragraph in their report on the condensed consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, regarding concerns about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our financial statements contain additional note disclosures describing the circumstances that lead to this disclosure by our independent auditors.
Our unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to generate profitable operations in the future and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet our obligations and repay our liabilities arising from normal business operations when they become due. The outcome of these matters cannot be predicted with any certainty at this time and raise substantial doubt that we will be able to continue as a going concern. Our unaudited condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments to the amount and classification of assets and liabilities that may be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern. There is no assurance that our operations will be profitable. Our continued existence and plans for future growth depend on our ability to obtain the additional capital necessary to operate either through the generation of revenue or the issuance of additional debt or equity.
Financing
We will require additional financing to implement our business plan, which may include joint venture projects and debt or equity financings. The nature of this enterprise and constraint of positive cash flow places debt financing beyond the credit-worthiness required by most banks or typical investors of corporate debt until such time as an economically viable profits and losses can be demonstrated. Therefore, any debt financing of our activities may be costly and result in substantial dilution to our stockholders.
Future financing through equity investments is likely to be dilutive to existing stockholders. Also, the terms of securities we may issue in future capital transactions may be more favorable for our new investors. Newly issued securities may include preferences, superior voting rights, and the issuance of warrants or other derivative securities, which may have additional dilutive effects. Further, we may incur substantial costs in pursuing future capital and financing, including investment banking fees, legal fees, accounting fees, and other costs. We may also be required to recognize non-cash expenses in connection with certain securities we may issue, such as convertible notes and warrants, which will adversely impact our financial condition.
Our ability to obtain needed financing may be impaired by such factors as the capital markets, both generally and specifically in the Agro-tech industry, which could impact the availability or cost of future financings. If the amount of capital we are able to raise from financing activities, together with our revenue from operations, is not sufficient to satisfy our capital needs, even to the extent that we reduce our operations accordingly, we may be required to cease operations.
There is no assurance that we will be able to obtain financing on terms satisfactory to us, or at all. We do not have any arrangements in place for any future financing. If we are unable to secure additional funding, we may cease or suspend operations. We have no plans, arrangements, or contingencies in place in the event that we cease operations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
Since inception on January 16, 2015, the Company has a cumulative deficit of $21,973 thousand and a working capital deficit of $3,395 thousand as of September 30, 2022. Our future growth is dependent upon achieving further purchase orders and execution, management of operating expenses and ability of the Company to obtain the necessary financing to fund future obligations, and upon profitable operations.
Historically, we have financed our cash flow and operations from the initial contribution of our majority shareholder and by raising equity and convertible loans.
As of September 30, 2022, we had current assets of $242 thousand consisting of $191 thousand in cash and cash equivalents, $11 thousand in restricted cash and $40 thousand in other current assets.
We had $3,637 thousand in current liabilities consisting of $111 thousand in other current liabilities, $2,176 thousand in Convertible loans, $1,302 thousand in convertible component, $15 thousand in short-term lease liability and $33 thousand accounts payables.
As of December 31, 2021, we had current assets of $963 thousand consisting of $866 thousand in cash and cash equivalents, $20 thousand in restricted cash and $77 thousand in prepaid expenses and other receivables. We had $3,358 thousand in current liabilities, which consisted of $12 thousand in accounts payable, $110 thousand other accounts payable, $2,994 thousand Convertible loans, $222 thousand in BCF liability, and $20 thousand in short term lease liability
We had a negative working capital of $3,395 thousand and $2,395 thousand as of September 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021, respectively.
Our Current liabilities as of September 30, 2022, were $3,637 thousand compared to $3,358 thousand as of December 31, 2021.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we had negative cash flow from operations of $732 thousand which was mainly the result of a net loss of $1,101 thousand, share-based expenses of $172 thousand and offset by financial gains from revaluations of convertible component in convertible loans in the amount of $100 thousand.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we had negative cash flow from investing activities of $190 thousand compared to a negative cash flow from investing activities of $31 thousand during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The increase is due to investment in leasehold improvements.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we had positive cash flow from financing activities of $248 thousand compared to a positive cash flow from financing activities of $1,862 during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. Cash flow from financing activities in the nine months ended September 30, 2022, was mainly a result of proceeds of convertible loans in the amount of $239 thousand, and proceeds from issuance of shares to minority interests in a subsidiary in the amount of $100 thousand. Cash flow from financing activities in the nine months ended September 30, 2021, was mainly a result of proceeds of convertible loans in the amount of $530 thousand, and issuance of shares to minority interests in a subsidiary in the amount of $1,406 thousand.
