ORGENESIS INC. |
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
For the Three Months Ended February 28, 2017 and February 29, 2016 |
NOTE 1 - GENERAL AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Orgenesis Inc. (the Company) was incorporated in the state of Nevada on June 5, 2008, under the name Business Outsourcing Services, Inc. Effective August 31, 2011, the Company completed a merger with its subsidiary, Orgenesis Inc., a Nevada corporation which was incorporated solely to effect a change in its name. As a result, the Company changed its name from Business Outsourcing Services, Inc. to Orgenesis Inc. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Orgenesis Inc., MaSTherCell S.A ( MaSTherCell), its Belgian based subsidiary and a contract development manufacturing organization, or CDMO (see also note 3), specialized in cell therapy development for advanced medicinal products; Orgenesis SPRL (the Belgian Subsidiary), a Belgian based subsidiary which is engaged in development and manufacturing activities together with clinical development studies in Europe, and later on to be the Companys center for activities in Europe; Orgenesis Maryland Inc. (the U.S. Subsidiary) a Maryland corporation, and Orgenesis Ltd. (the "Israeli Subsidiary") an Israeli corporation.
The Company is a regenerative therapy company with expertise and experience in cell therapy development and manufacturing.
The Companys cell therapy technology derives from published work of Prof. Sarah Ferber, the Company's Chief Science Officer and a researcher at Tel Hashomer Medical Research (THM), a leading medical hospital and research center in Israel, who established a proof of concept that demonstrates the capacity to induce a shift in the developmental fate of cells from the liver and transdifferentiating (converting) them into pancreatic beta cell-like insulin-producing cells. Its development activities with respect to cell-derived and related therapies, which are conducted through the Israeli Subsidiary, have, to date, been limited to laboratory and preclinical testing.
On May 10, 2016, the Company and Atvio Biotech Ltd., (Atvio) entered into a Joint Venture Agreement (the JVA) pursuant to which the parties agreed to collaborate in the contract development and manufacturing of cell and virus therapy products in the field of regenerative medicine in Israel.
On March 14, 2016, the Company and CureCell Co., Ltd. (CureCell) entered into a Joint Venture Agreement (the JVA) pursuant to which the parties agreed to collaborate in the contract development and manufacturing of cell and virus therapy products in the field of regenerative medicine in Korea. As of February 28, 2017, the Joint Venture company, as stipulated in the JVA, has not incorporated.
As used in this report and unless otherwise indicated, the term Company refers to Orgenesis Inc. and its subsidiaries (Subsidiaries). Unless otherwise specified, all amounts are expressed in United States dollars.
Basis of Presentation
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for interim financial statements. Accordingly, they do not contain all information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements reflect all adjustments, which include normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the Companys consolidated financial position as of February 28, 2017, and the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss for the three months ended February 28, 2017 and February 29, 2016, and the changes in equity and cash flows for the three months period ended February 28, 2017 and February 29, 2016. The results for the three months ended February 28, 2017, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending November 30, 2017. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 2016.
8
Going Concern
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As of February 28, 2017, the Company had not achieved profitable operations, has accumulated losses of approximately $38.8 million (since inception), has a working capital deficiency of $10.7 million and expects to incur further losses in the development of its business. Presently, the Company does not have sufficient cash and other resources to meet its requirements in the following twelve months. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Companys continuation as a going concern is dependent on its ability to obtain additional financing as may be required and ultimately to attain profitability. The Company needs to raise significant funds on an immediate basis in order to continue to meet its liquidity needs, realize its business plan and maintain operations. The Companys current cash resources are not sufficient to support its operations as presently conducted or permit it to take advantage of business opportunities that may arise. Management of the Company is continuing its efforts to secure funds through equity and/or debt instruments for its operations.
The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. There can be no assurance that management will be successful in implementing a business plan or that the successful implementation of a business plan will actually improve the Companys operating results. If the Company is unable to obtain the necessary capital, the Company may have to cease operations.
The Company has been funding its operations primarily from the proceeds from private placements of the Companys convertible debt and equity securities and from revenues generated by MaSTherCell. From December 2016 through February 2017, the Company received, through MaSTherCell, proceeds of approximately $2.8 million in revenues and accounts receivable from customers, $4.1 million from the private placement to accredited investors of its equity and equity linked securities and convertible loans. In addition, in January 2017 the Company entered into definitive agreements with an institutional investor for the private placement of units of the Companys securities for aggregate subscription proceeds to the Company of $16 million. The subscription proceeds are payable on a periodic basis through August 2018. During the three months ended February 28, 2017, $1 million was remitted by such investor and in April 2017 an additional $0.5 million was remitted. From March 1, 2017 through April 18, 2017, the Company raised an additional $0.3 million from the proceeds of the private placement to certain accredited investors of its equity and equity linked securities and $0.6 million in revenues and accounts receivable from customers.
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year.
NOTE 3 - SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") is the Companys chief operating decision-maker ("CODM").
Based on the Company's organizational structure, its business activities and information reviewed by the CODM for the purposes of allocating resources and assessing performance, management has determined that there are two operating segments,
CDMO
The CDMO activity is comprised of a specialization in cell therapy development for advanced therapeutic products and providing two types of services to its customers: (i) process and assay development services and (ii) cGMP contract manufacturing services. The CDMO activities include the operations of MaSTherCell and Atvio.
CTB
The Cellular Therapy Business (CTB) activity is based on the technology licensed by the Israeli Subsidiary, that demonstrates the capacity to induce a shift in the developmental fate of cells from the liver and differentiating (converting) them into pancreatic beta cell-like insulin producing cells for patients with Type 1 Diabetes.
9
The Company assesses the performance based on a measure of "Adjusted EBIT" (earnings before financial expenses and tax, and excluding share-based compensation expenses and non-recurring income or expenses). The measure of assets has not been disclosed for each segment.

NOTE 4 CONVERTIBLE LOAN AGREEMENTS
(a) On January 12, 2017, the Company repaid the outstanding principal amount and accrued interest in total amount of $51 thousand of convertible loans that were issued during September 2016. The transaction had no material impact on the comprehensive loss for the period.
(b) During the three months ended February 28, 2017 the Company entered into several unsecured convertible notes agreements with accredited or offshore investors for an aggregate amount of $2.65 million. The loans bear an annual interest rate of 6% and mature in two years, unless converted earlier.
The notes provide that the entire principal amount under the notes and accrued interest automatically convert into Units (as defined below) upon the earlier to occur of any of the following (each a Conversion Event): (i) the closing of an offering of equity securities of the Company with gross proceeds to the Company greater than $10 million (ii) the trading of the Companys common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the Common Stock) on the over-the counter market or an exchange at a weighted average price of at least $0.52 for fifty (50) consecutive trading days, or (iii) the listing of the Companys Common Stock on a U.S. National Exchange (each a Conversion Event). At any time, the holder may convert the principal amount and accrued interest outstanding into Units above. In addition, if a Conversion Event does not occur within 12 months of the issuance date of the note, then the holder, at its option, may convert the outstanding principal amount and accrued interest under this note into either (i) Units as provided above, or (ii) solely into shares of the Companys Common Stock at a per share conversion price of $0.40.
Since the closing price of the Companys publicly traded stock is greater than the effective conversion price on the measurement date, the conversion feature is considered "beneficial" to the holders and equal to $1.85 million. The difference is treated as issued equity and reduces the carrying value of the host debt; the discount is accreted as deemed interest on the debt.
The transaction costs were approximately $261 thousand, out of which $90 thousand was the fair value of 241,299 warrants granted to three holders as a success fee, exercisable at $0.52 per share for three years. The fair value of those warrants as of the date of grant was evaluated by using the Black-Scholes valuation model.
(c) During the three months ended February 28, 2017, the Company entered into several unsecured convertible note agreements with accredited or offshore investors for an aggregate amount of $0.8 million. The notes have 0% or 6% interest rate and are scheduled to mature between six months and one year unless converted earlier. At any time, all or a portion of the outstanding principal amount and accrued but unpaid interest thereon may be converted at the Holders option into shares of the Company common stock at a price of $0.52 per share. The Company also issued to the investors three-year warrants to purchase up to 1,746,063 shares of the Companys Common Stock at a per share exercise price of $0.52
Since the closing price of the Companys publicly traded stock is greater than the effective conversion price on the measurement date, the conversion feature is considered "beneficial" to the holders and equal to $81 thousand. The difference is treated as issued equity and reduces the carrying value of the host debt; the discount is accreted as deemed interest on the debt.
11
(d) On January 23, 2017, the Company and a Non-U.S. institutional investor, entered into an agreement pursuant to which the investor advanced to the Company $400,000 at per annum rate of 6% and with a maturity date of April 23, 2017.
The transaction costs were approximately $71 thousand, out of which $35 thousand as stock based compensation due to issuance of 76,923 warrants and 32,051 shares. The fair value of those warrants as of the date of grant was evaluated by using the Black-Scholes valuation model.
The principal amount and accrued interest were repaid by the Company on March 7, 2017 and, in accordance with the terms of the agreement, the Company issued to the investor 650,000 restricted shares of the Companys Common Stock. The fair value of the shares as of February 28, 2017, was $520 thousand and was recorded as financial expenses.
(e) In January 2017 MaSTherCell repaid all but one of its bondholders and the aggregate payment amounted to $1.7 million (€1.5 million). On January 17, 2017, the remain bondholder agreed to extend the duration of his Convertible bond with a principal amount of $106 thousand (€ 100 thousand) until March 21, 2017, (the New Maturity Date) and the convertible bonds continued to accrue interest as provided in the original agreement. In consideration of the extension, the Company agreed to issue to the bondholder warrants to purchase 102,822 shares of Company Common Stock, exercisable over a three-year period at a per share exercise price of $0.52. Under the agreement, on the New Maturity Date, the bondholder can elect to sell his bonds to the Company at a price equal to their face value, or convert the entire outstanding principal amount into common stock of the Company at the rate provided for in the original agreement for the acquisition of MaSTherCell. The fair value of those warrants as of the date of grant was $20 thousand using the Black-Scholes valuation model.
The Company returned from the escrow arrangement entered into in March 2015 in connection with the MaSTherCell acquisition a total of 3,157,716 consideration shares to treasury, in accordance with the terms of the MaSTherCell acquisition agreement. These shares will be retired and cancelled.
On March 20, 2017, the remain bondholder agreed to convert his convertible bonds into 488,182 shares of the Companys Common Stock.
(f) On February 27, 2017, the Company and Admiral Ventures Inc. (Admiral) entered into an agreement resolving the payment of amounts owed to Admiral. Under the terms of the settlement agreement, Admiral extended the maturity date to June 30, 2018. The Company agreed to pay to Admiral, on or before March 1, 2017, between $0.3 million and $1.5 million on account of the $1.9 million owed and outstanding to Admiral. Further, beginning April 2017, the Company agreed to make a monthly payment of $125 thousand on account of remaining unpaid balance and also agreed to remit 25% of all amounts received from equity financing raised above $1 million and 20% of such amounts above $500 thousand on account of amounts owed. The Company accounted for the above changes as a modification of the old debt.
As of the date of the approval of these financial statements, the Company repaid $1.5 million on account of the original principal amount of the loan.

Options Granted to Employees and Directors |
On April 27, 2016, the Company approved an aggregate of 1,104,950 stock options to the Companys Chief Executive Officer exercisable at $0.0001 per share and an aggregate of 1,641,300 stock options to the then Chief Executive Officer of the U.S. Subsidiary exercisable at $0.28 per share. The options vested immediately with a fair value as of the date of grant of $622 thousand using the Black-Scholes valuation model.
On December 9, 2016, the Company granted to the employees and directors 7,300,000 options, which are summarized on the table below:
No. of options | Exercise price | Vesting period | Fair value at grant | Expiration | |||||||||||
granted | (in thousands) | period | |||||||||||||
Directors | 2,000,000 | $ | 0.4 | Quarterly vested over 2 years | $ | 558 | 10 | ||||||||
Employees | 5,300,000 | $ | 0.4 | vest immediately- Quarterly vested over 4 years | $ | 1,480 | 10 |
The fair value of each stock option grant is estimated at the date of grant using a Black Scholes option pricing model. The volatility is based on historical volatility of the Company, by statistical analysis of the weekly share price for the last two years. The expected term is the mid-point between the vesting date and the maximum contractual term for each grant equal to the contractual life. The fair value of each option grant is based on the following assumptions:
Value of one common share | $ | 0.39 | |
Dividend yield | 0% | ||
Expected stock price volatility | 94% | ||
Risk free interest rate | 1.89% | ||

NOTE 9 - FAIR VALUE PRESENTATION
The Company measures fair value and discloses fair value measurements for financial assets and liabilities. Fair value is based on the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The accounting standard establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value into three broad levels, which are described below:
| Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs. |
| Level 2: Observable inputs that are based on inputs not quoted on active markets, but corroborated by market data. |
| Level 3: Unobservable inputs are used when little or no market data is available. The fair value hierarchy gives the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs. |
15
In determining fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs, to the extent possible, and considers credit risk in its assessment of fair value.
As of February 28, 2017, and November 30, 2016, the Companys liabilities that are measured at fair value and classified as level 3 fair value are as follows (in thousands):
February 28, | November 30, | |||||

loans*(1) | ||||||
Put option derivatives | 273 | 273 | ||||
Convertible bonds (2) | $ | 108 | $ | 1,818 |
* The embedded derivative is presented in the Company's balance sheets on a combined basis with the related host contract (the convertible loans).
(1) The fair value of the warrants, price protection derivative and embedded derivatives is determined by using a Monte Carlo Simulation Model. This model, in contrast to a closed form model, such as the Black-Scholes Model, enables the Company to take into consideration the conversion price changes over the conversion period of the loan, and therefore is more appropriate in this case.
(2) The fair value of the convertible bonds described in Note 7 of the Annual Report is determined by using a binomial model for the valuation of the embedded derivative and the fair value of the bond was calculated based on the effective rate on the valuation date (6%). The binomial model used the forecast of the Company share price during the convertible bond's contractual term. Since the convertible bond is in Euro and the model is in USD, the Company has used the Euro/USD forward rates for each period. In order to solve for the embedded derivative fair value, the calculation was performed as follows:
| Stage A - The model calculates several potential future share prices of the Company based on the volatility and risk-free interest rate assumptions. | |
| Stage B - the embedded derivative value is calculated "backwards" in a way that considers the maximum value between holding the bonds until maturity or converting the bonds. |
The following table presents the assumptions that were used for the models as of February 28, 2017:

As used in this quarterly report and unless otherwise indicated, the terms we, us, our, Orgenesis or the Company refer to Orgenesis Inc. and its wholly-owned Subsidiaries, Orgenesis Ltd. (the Israeli Subsidiary), Orgenesis SPRL (the Belgian Subsidiary), Orgenesis Maryland, Inc. (the U.S. Subsidiary) and MaSTherCell S.A. (MaSTherCell), our Belgian-based subsidiary. Unless otherwise specified, all dollar amounts are expressed in United States dollars. Our common stock is currently listed on the OTC Market, QB tier, under the symbol ORGS.
Corporate Overview
Orgenesis Inc. is among the first of a new breed of regenerative therapy companies with expertise and unique experience in cell therapy development and manufacturing. We are a fully-integrated biopharmaceutical company focused not only on developing our trans-differentiation technologies for diabetes and vertically integrating manufacturing that can optimize our abilities to scale-up our technologies for clinical trials and eventual commercialization, but also to apply our disciplined execution to emerging technologies of other cell therapy markets in such areas as cell-based cancer immunotherapies and neurodegenerative diseases. This integrated approach supports our business philosophy of bringing to market significant life-improving medical treatments.
Our cell therapy technology for diabetes is derived from the published work of Prof. Sarah Ferber, our Chief Science Officer and a researcher at Tel Hashomer Medical Center, a leading medical hospital and research center in Israel (THM), who established a proof of concept that demonstrates the capacity to induce a shift in the developmental fate of cells from the liver and transdifferentiating (converting) them into pancreatic beta cell-like insulin-producing cells. Furthermore, those cells were found to be resistant to autoimmune attack and to produce insulin in a glucose-sensitive manner in relevant animal models. Our development activities with respect to cell-derived and related therapies, which are conducted through our Israeli Subsidiary, have, to date, been limited to laboratory and preclinical testing. Our development plan calls for conducting additional preclinical safety and efficacy studies with respect to diabetes and other potential indications.
Our Belgian Subsidiary is a contract development manufacturing organization, or CDMO, specialized in cell therapy development for advanced medicinal products. In the last decade, cell therapy and regenerative medicine products have gained significant importance, particularly in the fields of ex-vivo gene therapy and immunotherapy. While academic and industrial research has led scientific development in the sector, industrialization and manufacturing expertise remains insufficient. MaSTherCell plans to fill this gap by providing two types of services to its customers: (i) process and assay development and optimization services and (ii) current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP) contract manufacturing services. These services offer a double advantage to MaSTherCell s customers. First, customers can continue allocating their financial and human resources on their product/therapy, while relying on a trusted partner for their process development/production. Second, it allows customers to leverage MaSTherCell s expertise in cell therapy manufacturing and all related aspects. As the industry continues to mature and a growing number of cell therapy companies approach commercialization, we believe that MaSTherCell is well positioned to serve as an external manufacturing source for cell therapy companies.
In furtherance of our business strategy, we are leveraging the recognized expertise and experience in cell process development and manufacturing of MaSTherCell, and our international joint ventures, to build a global and fully integrated bio-pharmaceutical company in the cell therapy development and manufacturing area. We target the international manufacturing market as a key priority through joint-venture agreements that provide development capabilities, along with manufacturing facilities and experienced staff. All of these capabilities offered to third-parties are mobilized for our internal development projects, allowing the Company to be in a position to bring new products to the patients faster and at a fraction of the costs.

Significant Recent Corporate Highlights
Our business success in the immediate future will largely depend on our ability to raise significant amounts of working capital in order to achieve our business plan and maintain operations as presently conducted and to expand the revenue generating capacity of our subsidiary MaSTherCell S.A.
Management continues in its efforts to raise operating capital. In connection therewith, in January 2017we entered into definitive agreements with an institutional investor for the private placement of units of our securities for aggregate subscription proceeds to the Company of $16 million. The subscription proceeds are payable on a periodic basis through August 2018. Each periodic payment of subscription proceeds will be evidenced by our standard securities subscription agreement. As of the date of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, the investor has remitted to us $1.5 million in subscription proceeds. Each unit is comprised of one share of our common stock and a warrant to purchase an additional share of common stock at a per share exercise price of $0.52. Pursuant to the investment, the investor designated director to serve on our board of directors for an initial two-year period and thereafter so long as the investor holds at least 10% of the Companys outstanding Common Stock. The investors right to designate the board designee is subject to the payment in full as provided in the definitive agreements of the remaining subscription proceeds.
On February 13, 2017, we announced that our Belgian-based subsidiary, Orgenesis SPRL, received the formal approval from the Walloon Region, Belgium (Service Public of Wallonia, DG06) for a €12.3 million (approximately $12.8 million) support program for the research and development of a potential cure for Type 1 Diabetes. The financial support was awarded to our Belgian subsidiary at 55% of budgeted costs, or a total of €6.8 million (approximately $7 million).
We have improved our balance sheet by reducing our companys debt by the repayment of $1.5 million in principal amount owed to an institutional investor. In accordance with the agreement with such investor, we undertook to pay down the balance owed to such investor in the approximate amount of $0.5 million periodically on a monthly basis and from amounts raised.
As further discussed below, our subsidiary MaSTherCell S.A., had revenues of approximately $1.85 million during the quarter representing an increase of 22% over the same period last year.
While we believe, the above developments position us to further our business development efforts and realize our business plan, we can provide no assurance that we will be successful in achieving our business plan. As discussed below, we still need to raise significant working capital to maintain operations and achieve our business plans.

Stock-based compensation for the three months ended February 28, 2017 increased by $233 thousand compared to the same period in 2016 and are primarily due to new grant of options to employees in December 2016.

Accounting and legal fees expenses for the three months ended February 28, 2017 increased by 93%, or $193 thousand compared to the same period in 2016.

Financial expenses (income), net for the three months ended February 28, 2017, increased by $6,720 thousand, compared to the same period in 2016. The change in financial expenses is mainly attributable to an increase of $4,052 thousand in fair value of warrants and financial liabilities measured at fair value due to the fact that in the three months ended February 28, 2017 there was a strong impact of the increase in the share price, which was $0.80 on February 28, 2017 as opposed to $0.39 on November 30, 2016. On the other hand, the decrease in fair value of warrants and financial liabilities measured at fair value for the three months ended February 29, 2016 was mainly due to updated in our assumptions related to the probabilities of activating the anti-dilution mechanism.
In addition, part of the increase is attributable to $20 thousand of stock-based compensation expenses related to 102,822 warrants granted to the remain bondholder in consideration of the extension of his bonds, and $520 thousand of stock-based compensation expenses related to restricted shares issued on March 7, 2017, in accordance with the terms of the convertible loan agreement dated January 23, 2017.

Current assets increased by $2.4 million, which was primarily attributable to an increase of $3 million in cash and cash equivalents due to offering of private placement of our equity and equity-linked securities in February 2017.
Furthermore, the account receivables increased by $0.3 million and the grants receivable decreased by $0.9 million mainly due to payment from the DGO6.
Current liabilities increased by $5.2 million, which was primarily attributable to an increase of $2 million in advanced payments on account of grant in connection with the new grant approved by the DGO6 to support a clinical study in Germany and Belgium.
24
In addition, an increase of $2.1 million in current maturities of convertible loans, $1.3 million increase was related to new convertible loans and the remain amount was due to changes in fair value of the old convertible loans. On March 2017, we reimbursed $1.9 million from the outstanding amount of the current maturities of convertible loans.

The increase in net cash used in operating activities for three months ended February 28, 2017, compared to the same period in 2016, is primarily attributable to our CDMO activities in Belgium.
The increase in amount of $60 thousand in net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended February 28, 2017, compared to the same period in 2016, was due to $180 thousand due to investment in associates, which was offset by decrease in amount of $120 in purchase and selling of property and equipment.
The increase in amount of $4.5 million in net cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended February 28, 2017 as compared to the same period in 2016, was attributable to the increase of $1.1 million in the proceeds from issuance of shares and warrants, $3.8 million in the net proceeds from issuance of convertible loans, which was offset by increase in amount of $0.3 million due to repayment of convertible loans, convertible bonds and short and long-term debt.
Liquidity & Capital Resources
We need to raise additional operating capital in order to maintain our operations and realize our business plan. Management believes that funds on hand, as well as the subscription proceeds of $9 million that we anticipate receiving through the end of February 2018 (out of a total of $14.5 million subscription proceeds that we are to receive on a periodic basis through August 2018), will allow us to conduct operations as presently conducted through the end of fiscal year 2017, without the planned CDMO facility expansion. We will likely need to raise additional operating capital in fiscal 2018 in order to maintain operations and to realize our business plan. Without additional sources of cash and/or the deferral, reduction, or elimination of significant planned expenditures and debt repayment, we may not have the cash resources to continue as a going concern thereafter.
Going Concern
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern. As of February 28, 2017, we have not achieved profitable operations, has accumulated losses of approximately $38.8 million (since inception), has a working capital deficiency of $10.7 million and expects to incur further losses in the development of its business. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Management is in the process of evaluating various financing alternatives for operations, as we will need to finance future research and development activities and general and administrative expenses through fund raising in the public or private equity markets.
The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. There can be no assurance that management will be successful in implementing a business plan or that the successful implementation of a business plan will actually improve the Companys operating results. If the Company is unable to obtain the necessary capital, the Company may have to cease operations.
25
We have been funding operations primarily from the proceeds from private placements of the our convertible and equity securities and from revenues and accounts receivable generated by MaSTherCell. From December 2016 through February 2017, we received, through MaSTherCell, proceeds of approximately $2.8 million and $4.1 million from the private placement to accredited investors of its equity and equity linked securities and convertible loans. In addition, in January 2017 we entered into definitive agreements with an institutional investor for the private placement of units of our securities for aggregate subscription proceeds of $16 million. The subscription proceeds are payable on a periodic basis through August 2018. During the three months ended February 28, 2017, $1 million was remitted by such investor and in April 2017 an additional $0.5 million was remitted. In addition, between March 1 and April 18, 2017, we raised an additional $0.3 million from the proceeds of a private placement to certain accredited investors of its equity and equity linked securities and $0.6 million in revenues and accounts receivable from customers.
Cash Requirements
Our plan of operation during fiscal year 2017 is to:
| initiate regulatory activities in Europe and the United States; |
| locate suitable facility in the U.S. for tech transfer and manufacturing scale-up; |
| purchase equipment needed for its cell production process; |
| hire key personnel including, but not limited to, a chief medical officer, US based chief science officer and chief operating officer; |
| collaborate with clinical centers and regulators to carry out clinical studies and clinical safety testing; |
| identify optional technologies for scale up of the cells production process; and |
| initialize efforts to validate the manufacturing process (in certified labs). |
We estimate that our operating resources and expenses for the next 12 months as of February 28, 2017 will be as follows:
Revenues | $ | 12,632 | |
Grant income | 6,982 | ||
Industrial loans | 2,087 | ||
Manufacturing wages | (4,736 | ) | |
Other Manufacturing expenses | (6,512 | ) | |

Manufacturing costs | (2,500 | ) | |
Property and equipment investments | (2,623 | ) | |
Total | $ | (10,517 | ) |
Future Financing
We will require additional funds to implement our growth strategy for our business. In addition, while we have received various grants that have enabled us to fund our clinical developments, these funds are largely restricted for use for other corporate operational and working capital purposes. As mentioned above, we raised additional capital to both supplement our clinical developments that are not covered by any grant funding and to cover our operational expenses. In the first quarter of fiscal 2017, we entered into a definitive agreement with an institutional investor for the private placement of units of our securities for aggregate subscription proceeds of $16 million. The subscription proceeds are payable on a periodic basis through August 2018, of which, through the date of this report on Form 10-Q, we have received $1.5 million in subscription proceeds. We may raise the additional funds required through equity financing, debt financing, or other sources, which may result in further dilution in the equity ownership of our shares. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available when needed or, if available, that can be obtained on commercially reasonable terms. If we will not be able to obtain the additional financing on a timely basis as required, or generate significant material revenues from operations, we will not be able to meet our other obligations as they become due and will be forced to scale down or perhaps even cease our operations.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on the Companys financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to stockholders.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Not applicable.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Companys reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Companys management, including the Companys president and chief executive officer (who is the Companys principal executive officer) and the Companys chief financial officer, treasurer, and secretary (who is the Companys principal financial officer and principal accounting officer) to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the Companys disclosure controls and procedures, the Companys management recognizes that controls and procedures are designed on a risk-based approach and , no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. The Companys management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. The continuous improvement of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures is based on material weaknesses identification in the Companys internal control over financial reporting.
Managements Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over the Companys financial reporting. In order to evaluate the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, our management, with the participation of the Companys principal executive officer and principal financial officer has conducted an assessment, including testing, using the criteria in Internal Control - Integrated Framework, issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) (2013). Our system of internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. This assessment included review of the documentation of controls, evaluation of the design effectiveness of controls, testing of the operating effectiveness of controls and a conclusion on this evaluation. Based on this evaluation, the Companys management concluded its internal control over financial reporting required improvement as of February 28, 2017. The limitation of the Companys internal control over financial reporting was due to the applied risk-based approach which is indicative of many small companies with limited number of staff in corporate functions implying:
(i) |
inadequate consistency of segregation of duties with control objectives; and |
(ii) |
ineffective controls over period end financial disclosure and reporting processes. |
27
Our management believes the weaknesses identified above have not had any material effect on our financial results. Although a remediation plan was designed and implementation efforts are still in progress, management is taking additional steps to address the causes of the above weaknesses and to improve our internal control over financial reporting, including the re-design of our accounting processes and control procedures and the identification of gaps in our skills base and the expertise of our staff as required to meet the financial reporting requirements of a public company. In particular, during the completed quarter, we have retained qualified independent third party accounting personnel , to conduct a comprehensive review of our internal controls and formalization of our review and approval processes in order. This measure has led to improve our internal controls which has enabled us to expedite our month-end close process, thereby facilitating the timely preparation of financial reports and to strengthen our segregation of duties at the Company. We are also committed to hiring a full time chief financial officer at MaSTherCell. We intend to hire additional qualified staff to augment our internal accounting personnel. Finally, we are exploring implementing a new initiative to ease and automate data gathering from all affiliated companies (data warehousing) and implement quantitative and qualitative controls.
Our management will continue to monitor and evaluate the relevance of our risk-based approach and the effectiveness of our internal controls and procedures over financial reporting on an ongoing basis and is committed to taking further action and implementing additional enhancements or improvements, as necessary and as funds allow.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal controls over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
During the three months ended February 28, 2017, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Companys internal control over financial reporting. During the completed quarter, we have strengthened the Corporate Finance function by hiring independent third party accounting personnel at MaSTherCell and one additional qualified person to assist in the internal accounting function.
