PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

You should read the following summary together with the more detailed information about us, the shares of Common Stock that may be sold from time to time, and our consolidated financial statements and the notes to them, all of which appear elsewhere in this prospectus.

Overview

We are a pioneer in the development, production, and marketing of innovative Predictive Maintenance (PdM) and Condition Based Monitoring (CBM) technologies, providing visual sensing and AI-based video analytics solutions for critical systems in the aviation, maritime, industrial non-destructing-testing industries, transportation, and energy industries. Some of our products utilize our unique micro visualization technology in medical devices for complex and minimally invasive medical procedures. Our technology includes proven video technologies and products amalgamated into a first-of-its-kind, FDA-cleared minimally invasive surgical device. At the present time, we derive a substantial portion of our revenue from applications of our micro visualization technology within the medical field.

Our Corporate History and Background

We were incorporated as a corporation under the laws of the State of Nevada on March 22, 2013, under the name Intellisense Solutions Inc. (“Intellisense”). We were initially engaged in the business of developing web portals to allow companies and individuals to engage in the purchase and sale of vegetarian food products over the Internet. However, we were unable to execute our original business plan, develop significant operations, or achieve commercial sales.

We received initial funding of $19,980 in March 2014 through the sale of Common Stock to two of our former officers and directors, who purchased in the aggregate 1,998,000 shares of our Common Stock at $0.01 per share.

On December 30, 2019, Intellisense and Medigus Ltd. (“Medigus”), an Israeli company traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market, entered into an Exchange Agreement, pursuant to which Medigus delivered 100% of its holdings in ScoutCam Ltd. to Intellisense in exchange for 60% of the issued and outstanding share capital of Intellisense (the “Exchange Agreement”). As a result of the Exchange Agreement, we own all of ScoutCam Ltd.’s issued and outstanding share capital and integrated and adopted ScoutCam Ltd.’s business into our Company as our primary business activity. We changed our name from Intellisense to ScoutCam Inc. on December 31, 2019 and on June 5, 2023, we changed our name to Odysight.ai Inc.

ScoutCam Ltd. was formed in the State of Israel on January 3, 2019, as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Medigus and commenced operations on March 1, 2019. ScoutCam Ltd. was incorporated as part of a reorganization of Medigus, which was designed to distinguish ScoutCam Ltd.’s miniaturized imaging business, or the micro ScoutCam™ portfolio, from Medigus’ other operations and to enable Medigus to form a separate business unit with dedicated resources focused on the promotion of such technology. On June 7, 2023, ScoutCam Ltd. changed its name to Odysight.ai Ltd. See– “CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS” below.

Risks Related to Our Business, Operations and Financial Condition

Our business is subject to a number of risks as discussed more fully in “Risk Factors” beginning on page 5 of this prospectus. These risks include, but are not limited to, the following:

THE OFFERING

RISK FACTORS

Below is a summary of the principal factors that make an investment in the Company speculative or risky. This summary does not address all of the risks that we face. Additional discussion of the risks summarized in this risk factor summary, and other risks that we face, can be found below, after this summary, and should be carefully considered.

Risks Related to Our Business, Operations and Financial Condition

Risk Related to Third Parties

Risks Related to Competition

Risks Related to Intellectual Property

General Risk Factors Related to Our Business

Risks Related to this Offering and Our Common Stock

Risks Related to our Operations in Israel

You should carefully consider the risks described below, as well as the financial or other information in this prospectus, including our consolidated financial statements and the related notes, before deciding whether to invest in our securities. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only risks we face. We may face additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial. Any of the risks described below, and any such additional risks, could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. In such case, you may lose all or part of your original investment.

Risks Related to Our Business, Operations and Financial Condition

We have had a limited operating history and may not be able to successfully operate our business or execute our business plan.

Given our limited operating history, it is hard to evaluate our proposed business and prospects. Our proposed business operations will be subject to numerous risks, uncertainties, expenses, and difficulties associated with early-stage enterprises. Such risks include, but are not limited to, the following:

Because we are subject to these risks, evaluating our business may be difficult, our business strategy may be unsuccessful and we may be unable to address such risks in a cost-effective manner, if at all. We have not earned a profit in any full fiscal year since our inception, and we cannot be certain as to when or if we will achieve or maintain profitability. If we are unable to successfully address these risks our business could be harmed.

If we are unable to establish sales, marketing and distribution capabilities or enter into successful relationships with business targets and third parties to perform these services, we may not be successful in commercializing our products and technology.

Given that we are currently as a B2B company, our business is reliant on our ability to successfully attract potential business targets. Furthermore, we have a limited sales and marketing infrastructure and have limited experience in the sale, marketing, or distribution of our technologies beyond the B2B model. To achieve commercial success for our technologies or any future developed product, we will need to establish a sales and marketing infrastructure or to out-license such future products.

In the future, we may consider building a focused sales and marketing infrastructure to market any developed products and potentially other products in the United States or elsewhere in the world. There are risks involved with establishing our own sales, marketing, and distribution capabilities. For example, recruiting, and training a sales force could be expensive and time consuming and could delay any product launch. This may be costly, and our investment would be lost if we cannot retain or reposition our sales and marketing personnel.

Factors that may inhibit our efforts to commercialize any future products on our own include:

If we are unable to establish our own sales, marketing, and distribution capabilities or enter into successful arrangements with third parties to perform these services, we will not be successful in commercializing our technologies or any future products we may develop, and our revenues and profitability may be materially adversely affected.

We may require substantial additional funding, which may not be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all.

Our cash and short-term deposit balance as of September 30, 2023 was $19.5 million. We may require additional funding to fund and grow our operations and to develop certain products. There can be no assurance that financing will be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. In the event we require additional capital, the inability to obtain such capital will restrict our ability to grow and may reduce our ability to continue to conduct business operations. If we require and are unable to obtain additional financing, we will likely be required to curtail our development plans. In that event, current stockholders would likely experience a loss of most or all of their investment. Additional funding may be dilutive to the interests of existing stockholders.

Our failure to effectively manage growth could impair our business.

Our business strategy contemplates a period of rapid growth which may put a strain on our administrative and operational resources, and our funding requirements. Our ability to effectively manage growth will require us to successfully expand the capabilities of our operational and management systems, and to attract, train, manage, and retain qualified personnel. There can be no assurance that we will be able to do so, particularly if losses continue and we are unable to obtain sufficient financing. If we are unable to appropriately manage growth, our business, prospects, financial condition, and results of operations could be adversely affected.

Our commercial success depends upon the degree of market acceptance by such prospective markets and industries as defense and aviation, as well as by the medical community.

Our current business model is that of a B2B approach in which we seek to identify target businesses interested in integrating our technology or commissioning individual projects using our technology. Any product that we commission or that is brought to the market may or may not gain market acceptance by prospective customers. The commercial success of our technologies, commissioned products, and any future product that we may develop depends in part on the medical community as well as other industries for various use cases, depending on the acceptance by such industries of our commissioned products as a useful and cost-effective solution compared to current technologies. During 2022, we commenced proactive market penetration into industries other than the biomedical sector, such as the defense and aviation industries. If our technology or any future product that we may develop does not achieve an adequate level of acceptance, or does not garner significant commercial appeal, we may not generate significant revenue and may not become profitable. The degree of market acceptance will depend on a number of factors, including:

Our efforts to penetrate industries and educate the marketplace on the benefits of our technology, and reasons to seek the commissioning of products based on our technology, may require significant resources and may never be successful. Such efforts to educate the marketplace may require more resources than are required by conventional technologies.

Weakened global economic conditions may harm our industry, business and results of operations.

Our overall performance depends in part on worldwide economic conditions. Global financial developments and downturns seemingly unrelated to us or may harm us. The United States and other key international economies have been affected from time to time by falling demand for a variety of goods and services, restricted credit, reduced liquidity, reduced corporate profitability, volatility in credit, equity and foreign exchange markets, bankruptcies, inflation and overall uncertainty with respect to the economy, including with respect to tariff and trade issues. Weak economic conditions or the perception thereof, or significant uncertainty regarding the stability of financial markets related to stock market volatility, inflation, recession, changes in tariffs, trade agreements, or governmental fiscal, monetary and tax policies, among others, could adversely impact our business, financial condition and operating results.

More recently, inflation rates in the U.S. have been higher than in previous years, which may result in decreased demand for our products and services, increases in our operating costs including our labor costs, constrained credit and liquidity, reduced government spending and volatility in financial markets. The Federal Reserve has raised, and may again raise, interest rates in response to concerns over inflation risk. Increases in interest rates on credit and debt that would increase the cost of any borrowing that we may make from time to time and could impact our ability to access the capital markets. Increases in interest rates, especially if coupled with reduced government spending and volatility in financial markets, may have the effect of further increasing economic uncertainty and heightening these risks. In an inflationary environment, we may be unable to raise the sales prices of our products at or above the rate at which our costs increase, which could reduce our profit margins and have a material adverse effect on our financial results and net income. We also may experience lower than expected sales and potential adverse impacts on our competitive position if there is a decrease in consumer spending or a negative reaction to our pricing. A reduction in our revenue would be detrimental to our profitability and financial condition and could also have an adverse impact on our future growth.

Our recent rebranding efforts to Odysight.ai may not be successful.

On June 8, 2023, we announced an extensive corporate rebranding initiative, changing our name to Odysight.ai. Customers, suppliers and partners may be confused by or disapprove of our name change, leading to disruptions in our business and results of operations, and investors may not recognize us under our new name, or understand or appreciate our rebranding efforts, which could materially and adversely impact the trading price of our Common Stock.

The continuing effects of the COVID-19 pandemic are highly unpredictable and could be significant, and the duration and extent to which this will impact our future results of operations and overall financial performance remains uncertain.

The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic ultimately impacts our business will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, such as the duration of future outbreaks, including current and subsequent variants of COVID-19, travel restrictions and social distancing in Israel, the United States and other countries, business closures or business disruptions, and the effectiveness of actions taken in Israel, the United States and other countries to contain and treat the disease and to address its impact, including on financial markets or otherwise. These measures have impacted, and may further impact, our suppliers and other business partners from conducting business activities as usual (including, without limitation, the availability and pricing of materials, manufacturing and delivery efforts, clinical trials, and other aspects that may affect our business) for an unknown period of time. In addition, we, our suppliers and other business partners may experience significant impairments of business activities due to operational shutdowns or suspensions that may be requested or mandated by national or local governmental authorities or self-imposed by us, our suppliers or other business partners.

Risk Related to Third Parties

Our reliance on third-party suppliers for most of the components of our products could harm our ability to meet demand for our products in a timely and cost-effective manner.

We rely on our third-party suppliers to obtain an adequate supply of quality components on a timely basis with favorable terms to manufacture our commissioned products. Some of those components that we sell are provided to us by a limited number of suppliers. We will be subject to disruptions in our operations if our sole or limited supply contract manufacturers decrease or stop production of components or do not produce components and products of sufficient quantity or quality. Alternative sources for our components will not always be available.

Though we attempt to ensure the availability of more than one supplier for each important component in any product that we commission, the number of suppliers engaged in the provision of miniature video sensors which are suitable for our CMOS technology mainly in the medical domain is very limited, and therefore in some cases we engage with a single supplier, which may result in our dependency on such supplier. This is the case regarding sensors for the CMOS type technology that are produced by a single supplier in the United States. As we do not have a direct general contract in place with this supplier, there is no contractual commitment on the part of such supplier for any set quantity of such sensors. The loss of our sole supplier in providing us with miniature sensors for our CMOS technology products mainly in the medical domain, and our inability or delay in finding a suitable replacement supplier, could negatively affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and reputation.

We are also subject to other risks inherent in the manufacturing of our products and their supply chain, including industrial accidents, natural disasters (including as a result of climate change), environmental events, strikes, and other labor disputes, capacity constraints, disruptions in material or packaging supplies, as well as global shortages, disruptions in supply chain or information technology, loss or impairment of key manufacturing sites or suppliers, product quality control, safety, increase in commodity prices and energy costs, licensing requirements and other regulatory issues, as well as other external factors over which we have no control. If such an event were to occur, it could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

In addition, if we cannot supply commissioned products or future potentially developed products due to a lack of components or are unable to utilize other components in a timely manner, our business will be significantly harmed. If inventory shortages occur, they could be expected to have a material and adverse effect on our future revenues and ability to effectively project future sales and operating results.

We may not be able to manage our strategic partners effectively.

We have entered into, and we may continue to enter into, strategic alliances with third parties to gain access to new and innovative technologies and markets. These parties are often large, established companies. Negotiating and performing under these arrangements involves significant time and expense, and we may not have sufficient resources to devote to our strategic alliances, particularly those with companies that have significantly greater financial and other resources than we do. The anticipated benefits of these arrangements may never materialize and performing under these arrangements may adversely affect our results of operations.

Failure to manage our current partners effectively or enter into new strategic alliances may affect our success in executing our business plan and may adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operation. We may not realize the anticipated benefits of any or all partnerships or may not realize them in the time frame expected.

We may not have sufficient manufacturing capabilities to satisfy any growing demand for our commissioned products. We may be unable to control the availability or cost of producing such products.

Our current manufacturing capabilities may not reach the required production levels necessary in order to meet growing demands for any products we may commission or future products we may develop. There can be no assurance that our commissioned products can be manufactured at our desired commercial quantities, in compliance with our requirements, and at an acceptable cost. Any such failure could delay or prevent us from shipping said products and marketing our technologies in accordance with our target growth strategies.

Risks Related to Competition

We expect to face competition. If we cannot successfully compete with new or existing technologies or future developed products, our marketing and sales will suffer, and we may never be profitable.

We expect to compete against existing technologies and proven products in different industries. In addition, some of these competitors, either alone or together with their collaborative partners, operate larger research, and development programs than we do, and may have substantially greater financial resources than we do, as well as significantly greater experience in obtaining regulatory approvals applicable to the commercialization of relevant competitive technologies and future products.

Failure to comply with anti-bribery, anti-corruption and anti-money laundering laws could subject us to penalties and other adverse consequences.

We are subject to the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, or the FCPA, Chapter 9 (sub-chapter 5) of the Israeli Penal Law, 5737-1977, and the Israeli Prohibition on Money Laundering Law, 5760-2000, collectively, the Israeli Anti-Corruption Laws, and the UK Bribery Act 2010, or UK Bribery Act, and other anticorruption, anti-bribery and anti-money laundering laws in the jurisdictions in which we do business, both domestic and abroad. These laws generally prohibit us and our employees from improperly influencing government officials or commercial parties in order to obtain or retain business, direct business to any person or gain any advantage. The FCPA, the Israeli Anti-Corruption Laws, the UK Bribery Act, and other applicable anti-bribery and anti-corruption laws also may hold us liable for acts of corruption and bribery committed by our third-party business partners, representatives and agents. In addition, we leverage third parties to sell our products and conduct our business abroad. We and our third-party business partners, representatives and agents may have direct or indirect interactions with officials and employees of government agencies or state-owned or affiliated entities and we may be held liable for the corrupt or other illegal activities of these third-party business partners and intermediaries, our employees, representatives, contractors, channel partners and agents, even if we do not explicitly authorize such activities. These laws also require that we keep accurate books and records and maintain internal controls and compliance procedures designed to prevent any such actions. While we have policies and procedures to address compliance with such laws, we cannot assure you that our employees and agents will not take actions in violation of our policies or applicable law, for which we may be ultimately held responsible and our exposure for violating these laws increases as our international presence is established and as we increase sales and operations in foreign jurisdictions. Any violation of the FCPA, the Israeli Anti-Corruption Laws, the UK Bribery Act, or other applicable anti-bribery, anti-corruption laws and anti-money laundering laws could result in whistleblower complaints, adverse media coverage, investigations, imposition of significant legal fees, loss of export privileges, severe criminal or civil sanctions or suspension or debarment from U.S. government contracts, substantial diversion of management’s attention, a decline in the market price of our Common Stock or overall adverse consequences to our reputation and business, all of which may have an adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

Risks Related to Intellectual Property

We may not be able to obtain patents or other intellectual property rights necessary to protect our proprietary technology and business.

We may seek to patent concepts, components, processes, designs and methods, and other inventions and technologies that we consider to have commercial value or that will likely give us a technological advantage. Despite devoting resources to the research and development of proprietary technology, we may not be able to develop technology that is patentable or protectable. Patents may not be issued in connection with pending patent applications, and claims allowed may not be sufficient to allow them to use the inventions that they create exclusively. Furthermore, any patents issued could be challenged, re-examined, held invalid or unenforceable, or circumvented and may not provide sufficient protection or a competitive advantage. In addition, despite efforts to protect and maintain patents, competitors and other third parties may be able to design around their patents or develop products similar to our work products that are not within the scope of their patents. Finally, patents provide certain statutory protection only for a limited period of time that varies depending on the jurisdiction and type of patent.

Prosecution and protection of the rights sought in patent applications and patents can be costly, lengthy, and uncertain, often involve complex legal and factual issues, and consume significant time and resources. In addition, the breadth of claims allowed in our patents, their enforceability, and our ability to protect and maintain them cannot be predicted with any certainty. The laws of certain countries may not protect intellectual property rights to the same extent as the laws of the United States. Even if our patents are held to be valid and enforceable in a certain jurisdiction, any legal proceedings that we may initiate against third parties to enforce such patents will likely be expensive, take significant time, and divert management’s attention from other business matters. We cannot assure that any of our issued patents or pending patent applications provide any protectable, maintainable, or enforceable rights or competitive advantages to us.

In addition to patents, we plan to rely on a combination of copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, and other related laws and confidentiality procedures and contractual provisions to protect, maintain, and enforce our proprietary technology and intellectual property rights in the United States and other countries. However, our ability to protect our brands by registering certain trademarks may be limited. In addition, while we will generally enter into confidentiality and nondisclosure agreements with our employees, consultants, contract manufacturers, distributors and resellers, and with others to attempt to limit access to and distribution of our proprietary and confidential information, it is possible that:

We may not be successful in enforcing our intellectual property rights against third parties.

Unlicensed copying and use of our intellectual property or infringement of our intellectual property rights may result in the loss of revenue to us and cause us other harm. We seek diligently to enforce our intellectual property rights. Although we devote significant resources to developing and protecting our technologies and evaluating potential competitors of our technologies for infringement of our intellectual property rights, these infringements may nonetheless go undetected or may arise in the future. In the ordinary course of business, we encounter companies that we suspect are infringing on our intellectual property rights. When we encounter a company that we suspect is infringing our intellectual property rights, we may try to analyze their products and/or try to negotiate a license arrangement with such party. If we try and are unable to negotiate a license or secure the agreement of such alleged infringing party to cease its activities, we must make decisions as to how best to enforce our intellectual property rights.

The process of negotiating a license with a third party can be lengthy and may take months or even years in some circumstances. Even if we are successful in securing a license agreement, there can be no assurance that our technologies will be used in a product that is ultimately brought to market, achieves commercial acceptance or results in significant royalties to us. We generally incur expense prior to entering into our license agreements, generating a license fee, and establishing a royalty stream from each customer. We may incur costs in any particular period before any associated revenue stream begins, if at all. Further, it is possible that third parties who we believe are infringing our intellectual property rights are unwilling to license our intellectual property from us on terms we can accept, or at all.

If we cannot persuade a third party who we believe is infringing our technology to enter into a license with us, we may be required to consider other alternatives to enforce our rights, including commencing litigation. The decision to commence litigation over infringement of a patent is complex and may lead to several risks to us, including the following, among others:

Also, enforcement of patent protection throughout the world is generally established on a country-by-country basis and we may not have as much success enforcing our patents in foreign jurisdictions as in the United States. Further, in some instances, certain foreign governmental entities that might infringe our intellectual property rights may enjoy sovereign immunity from such claims. Consequently, effective protection of our intellectual property rights may be unavailable or limited.

Defendants in any litigation we consider commencing may have substantially greater financial and management resources necessary to manage litigation than we have. Further, such potential defendants may also have their own substantial patent portfolio. Patent litigation can endure for years and result in millions of dollars of expenses. If our counterparties in such litigation have substantially greater resources than we have, we may not be able to withstand the time, expense, or distraction of the litigation, even though we may have a better litigation position than such counterparties. In such instances we may not recover the expenses of litigation, and we may be required to enter into settlement agreements that would be adverse to us or our intellectual property portfolio.

The foregoing and other factors may cause us not to file or continue litigation against alleged infringers of our intellectual property rights, or may cause us not to file for, or pursue, patent protection for our inventive technology, in certain jurisdictions. Our failure to seek to enforce our intellectual property rights may weaken our ability to enforce our intellectual property in the future or make our efforts to license our intellectual property rights more difficult.

If we fail to protect our intellectual property rights adequately, if there are adverse changes in applicable laws, or if we become involved in litigation relating to our intellectual property rights or the intellectual property rights of others, our business could be seriously harmed. In such cases, the value ascribed to our intellectual property could diminish, we may incur significant legal expenses that could harm our results of operations, and our patents or other intellectual property rights may be limited or invalidated. Any of the foregoing could have a negative effect on the value of our Common Stock.

We may be subject to infringement claims and other litigation, which could adversely affect our business.

As more companies engage in business activities relating to predictive maintenance solutions, and develop corresponding intellectual property rights, it is increasingly likely that claims may arise which assert that some of our products or services infringe upon other parties’ intellectual property rights. These claims could subject us to costly litigation and divert management resources. These claims may require us to pay significant damages, cease production of infringing products, terminate our use of infringing technology, or develop non-infringing technologies. In these circumstances, continued use of our technology may require that we acquire licenses to the intellectual property that is the subject of the alleged infringement, and we might not be able to obtain these licenses on commercially reasonable terms or at all. Our use of protected technology may result in liability that could threaten our continued operation.

Some of the contracts with our customers include indemnity and similar provisions regarding our non-infringement of third-party intellectual property rights. As deployment of our technology increases, and more companies enter our markets, the likelihood of a third-party lawsuit resulting from these provisions increases. If an infringement arose in a context governed by such a contract, we may have to refund to our customer amounts already paid to us or pay significant damages, or we may be sued by the party whose intellectual property has allegedly been infringed upon.

Governmental regulation of non-practicing patent holders may adversely affect our business.

Governmental policymakers and commercial participants have proposed reforming U.S. patent laws and regulations in a manner that may limit a patent-holder’s ability to enforce its patents against others to the extent that the holder is not practicing the subject matter of the patent at issue. The U.S. International Trade Commission has also recently taken certain actions that have been viewed as unfavorable to patentees seeking recourse in this forum. While we cannot predict what form any new patent reform laws or regulations may ultimately take, or what impact they may have on our business, any laws or regulations that restrict our ability to enforce our patent rights against third parties could have a material adverse effect on our business.

General Risk Factors Related to Our Business

Our business and operations would suffer in the event of computer system failures, cyber-attacks, or deficiencies in our cyber-security.

Security incidents involving our information technology systems and those of third parties on which we rely have occurred in the past, such as phishing attacks, although none of these incidents have been material to our business. Such security incidents may occur in the future. Despite the implementation of security measures, our internal computer systems, and those of third parties on which we rely, are vulnerable to damage from computer viruses, malware, natural disasters, terrorism, war, telecommunication and electrical failures, cyber-attacks or cyber-intrusions over the Internet, attachments to emails, persons inside our organization, or persons with access to systems inside our organization. The risk of a security breach or disruption, particularly through cyber-attacks or cyber intrusion, including by computer hackers, foreign governments, and cyber terrorists, has generally increased as the number, intensity and sophistication of attempted attacks and intrusions from around the world have increased. If such an event were to occur and cause interruptions in our operations, it could result in a material disruption of our product development programs. To the extent that any disruption or security breach was to result in a loss of or damage to our data or applications, or inappropriate disclosure of confidential or proprietary information, we could incur material legal claims and liability, and damage to our reputation, and the further development of our product candidates could be delayed. We face an increasingly difficult challenge to attract and retain highly qualified security personnel to assist us in combatting these security threats.

We may be subject to product liability claims, product actions, including product recalls, and other field or regulatory actions that could be expensive, divert management’s attention, and harm our business.

Our business exposes us to potential liability risks, product actions, and other field or regulatory actions that are inherent in the manufacturing, marketing and sale of medical device, or any other products that we may have commissioned for a target business. We may be held liable if such products cause injury or death or are found otherwise unsuitable or defective during usage. Our products incorporate mechanical and electrical parts, complex computer software, and other sophisticated components, any of which can contain errors or failures. Complex computer software is particularly vulnerable to errors and failures, especially when first introduced. In addition, new products or enhancements to our existing products may contain undetected errors or performance problems that, despite testing, are discovered only after installation.

If any of our commissioned products are defective, whether due to design or manufacturing defects, improper use of the product, or other reasons, we may voluntarily or involuntarily undertake an action to remove, repair, or replace the product at our expense. In some circumstances we will be required to notify regulatory authorities of an action pursuant to a product failure.

We cannot ensure that provisions in our customer contracts will be legally sufficient to protect us if we are subjected to legal action. In addition, our errors and omissions and product liability insurance coverage may not be completely adequate, may not continue to be available on reasonable terms or in sufficient amounts to cover one or more large claims, or the insurer may disclaim coverage as to some types of future claims. The successful assertion of any large claim against us could seriously harm our business. Even if not successful, these claims may result in significant legal and other costs, be a distraction to our management and harm our reputation.

Testing of our technologies potential applications for our products will be required and there is no assurance of regulatory approval.

The effect of government regulation and the need for compliance may delay marketing of our technologies and future potentially developed products for a considerable period of time, impose costly procedures upon our activities, and provide an advantage to larger companies that compete with us. There can be no assurance that we will be able to achieve regulatory compliance for any of our products. Any such delay in achieving such regulatory compliance would materially and adversely affect the marketing of any contemplated products and the ability to earn product revenue. Further, regulation of manufacturing facilities by state, local, and other authorities is subject to change. Any additional regulation could result in limitations or restrictions on our ability to utilize any of our technologies, thereby adversely affecting our operations. Various federal and foreign statutes and regulations also govern or influence the manufacturing, safety, labeling, storage, record keeping, and marketing of our products. The process of compliance with relevant U.S. and foreign statutes and regulations are time-consuming and require the expenditure of substantial resources. In addition, these requirements and processes vary widely from country to country.

We rely on highly skilled personnel, and if we are unable to attract, retain, or motivate qualified personnel, we may not be able to operate our business effectively.

Our success depends in large part on continued employment of senior management and key personnel who can effectively operate our business, as well as our ability to attract and retain skilled employees. Competition for highly skilled management, technical, research and development, and other employees is intense, and we may not be able to attract or retain highly qualified personnel in the future. Our long-term incentive programs may not be attractive enough or perform sufficiently to attract or retain qualified personnel.

If a significant portion of our employees leaves us, we might fail to effectively manage a transition to new personnel, or if we fail to attract and retain qualified and experienced professionals on acceptable terms, our business, financial condition, and results of operations could be adversely affected.

Our success also depends on our having highly trained financial, technical, R&D, sales, and marketing personnel. We will need to continue to hire additional personnel as our business grows. A shortage in the number of people with these skills or our failure to attract them to our Company could impede our ability to increase revenues from our existing technology and services, ensure full compliance with international and federal regulations, or launch new product offerings and would have an adverse effect on our business and financial results.

Further, the volatility of our stock price may make our equity compensation less attractive to current and potential employees.

We may be unable to keep pace with changes in technology as our business and market strategy evolves.

We will need to respond to technological advances in a cost-effective and timely manner in order to remain competitive. The need to respond to technological changes may require us to make substantial, unanticipated expenditures. There can be no assurance that we will be able to respond successfully to technological change.

We incorporate artificial intelligence, or AI, into some of our products. This technology is new and developing and may present both compliance and reputational risks.

Because we develop our own algorithms and learning capabilities in the artificial intelligence (“AI”) capabilities that we incorporate into some of our products, and because the software solutions we create, implement, and maintain are often critical to some of our potential customers’ platforms, we may experience some system and service failures, schedule or delivery delays and other problems in connection with our AI work. If we experience these problems, we may lose revenue due to adverse customer reactions, including postponement, cancellation or failure to renew contracts; be required to provide additional services to a customer at no charge; receive negative publicity, which could damage our reputation and adversely affect our ability to attract or retain customers; and suffer legal action for substantial damages.

Risks Related to this Offering and Our Common Stock

If the ownership of our Common Stock continues to be highly concentrated, it may prevent you and other minority stockholders from influencing significant corporate decisions and may result in conflicts of interest.

Mr. Arkin, who beneficially owns approximately 55.61% of our Common Stock, holds approximately 44.58% of the current voting power in our Company and may exercise warrants and options which could increase his voting power to 55.61%. As a result, Mr. Arkin will likely control any action requiring a stockholder vote, including: the election of directors; mergers, consolidations and acquisitions; the sale of all or substantially all of our assets and other decisions affecting our capital structure; the amendment of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and our amended and restated bylaws; and our winding up and dissolution. This concentration of ownership may delay, deter or prevent acts that would be favored by our other stockholders. The interests of Mr. Arkin may not always coincide with our interests or the interests of our other stockholders. This concentration of ownership may also have the effect of delaying, preventing or deterring a change in control of our Company. Also, Mr. Arkin may seek to cause us to take courses of action that, in his judgment, could enhance his investment in our Company, but which might involve risks to our other stockholders or adversely affect us or our other stockholders, including investors in this offering. As a result, the market price of our Common Stock could decline or stockholders might not receive a premium over the then-current market price of our Common Stock upon a change in control. In addition, this concentration of share ownership may adversely affect the trading price of our Common Stock because investors may perceive disadvantages in owning shares in a company with significant stockholders.

If we ever list on Nasdaq, we may be considered a “controlled company” within the meaning of Nasdaq rules and, as a result, may rely on exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements that provide protection to stockholders of other companies.

As a result of the concentration of voting power described above, we may be considered a “controlled company”, for example by Nasdaq if we ever list on The Nasdaq Stock Market, which we do not expect to be able to do, if ever, until after we file our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 in March or April 2024, at the earliest. Under these rules, a listed company of which more than 50% of the voting power is held by an individual, group or another company is a “controlled company” and may elect not to comply with certain corporate governance requirements, including: the requirement that a majority of our board of directors consist of “independent directors” as defined under the rules of Nasdaq; the requirement that we have a compensation committee that is composed entirely of directors who meet the Nasdaq independence standards for compensation committee members; and the requirement that our director nominations be made, or recommended to our full board of directors, by our independent directors or by a nominations committee that consists entirely of independent directors.

Although no decision has been made about whether or not to rely on such exemptions, if we do rely on any or all of these exemptions, you may not have the same protections afforded to stockholders of companies that are subject to all of the corporate governance requirements of Nasdaq.

Future resales of Common Stock may cause the market price of our Common Stock to drop significantly, even if our business is doing well.

Sales of a substantial number of shares of our Common Stock in the public market could occur at any time, including by the Selling Stockholders pursuant to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part. These sales, or the perception in the market that such sales can occur, could reduce the market price of our Common Stock and increase the volatility in the market price of our Common Stock. Further, the sale of a substantial portion of shares of our Common Stock could result in a change of control, which could impact the market price and liquidity of our Common Stock.

Trading on the OTC Markets is volatile, sporadic and often thin, which could depress the market price of our Common Stock and make it difficult for our stockholders to resell their Common Stock.

Our Common Stock is currently quoted on the OTCQB tier of the OTC Markets. Trading in securities quoted on the OTC Markets is often thin and characterized by wide fluctuations in trading prices due to many factors, some of which may have little to do with our operations or business prospects. This volatility could depress the market price of our Common Stock for reasons unrelated to operating performance. Moreover, the OTC Markets is not a stock exchange, and trading of securities on the OTC Markets is often more sporadic than the trading of securities listed on a stock exchange like NASDAQ or the NYSE. Although in June 2021 we filed an application with The Nasdaq Stock Market to list our Common Stock, we did not complete the process and do not expect to be able to do so, if ever, until after we file our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 in March or April 2024, at the earliest. Our Common Stock has a history of thin trading. During the 52-week period ended October 31, 2023, trades were only reported on 60 trading days. These factors may result in investors having difficulty reselling any shares of our Common Stock.

Anti-takeover provisions contained in our articles and bylaws, as well as provisions of Nevada law, could impair a takeover attempt.

Our amended and restated articles of incorporation and bylaws currently contain provisions that, together with Nevada law, could have the effect of rendering more difficult or discouraging an acquisition deemed undesirable by our board of directors. Our corporate governance documents presently include provisions such as providing for a “staggered” board of directors in which only one-third (1/3) of the directors can be elected in any year, and limiting the liability of, and providing indemnifications to, our directors and officers. These provisions, alone or together, could delay hostile takeovers and changes in control of our Company or changes in our management.

As a Nevada corporation, we may also become subject to the provisions of Nevada Revised Statutes Sections 78.378 through 78.3793, which prohibit an acquirer, under certain circumstances, from voting shares of a corporation’s stock after crossing specific threshold ownership percentages, unless the acquirer obtains the approval of the stockholders of the issuer corporation. The first such threshold is the acquisition of at least one-fifth, but less than one-third of the outstanding voting power of the issuer. We may become subject to the above referenced Statutes if we have 200 or more stockholders of record, at least 100 of whom are residents of the State of Nevada and do business in the State of Nevada directly or through an affiliated corporation.

Any provision of our amended and restated articles of incorporation, our bylaws or Nevada law that has the effect of delaying or deterring a change in control of our Company could limit the opportunity for our stockholders to receive a premium for their shares of our Common Stock and could also affect the price that some investors are willing to pay for our Common Stock.

The market price of our Common Stock may be highly volatile and such volatility could cause you to lose some or all of your investment.

The market price of our Common Stock may fluctuate significantly in response to numerous factors, some of which are beyond our control, such as:

In addition, the stock market has experienced significant volatility, particularly with respect to pharmaceutical, biotechnology and other life sciences company stocks. The volatility of pharmaceutical, biotechnology and other life sciences company stocks often does not relate to the operating performance of the companies represented by the stock. In the past, securities class action litigation has often been initiated against companies following periods of volatility in their stock price. This type of litigation could result in substantial costs and divert our management’s attention and resources and could also require us to make substantial payments to satisfy judgments or to settle litigation.

Our Common Stock is currently a “penny stock,” which imposes additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers that sell such securities.

The SEC has adopted regulations which generally define so-called “penny stocks” to be an equity security that has a market price less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exemptions. Our Common Stock is currently a “penny stock” and is subject to Rule 15g-9 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or the Penny Stock Rule. This rule imposes additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers that sell such securities to persons other than established customers and “accredited investors” (generally, individuals with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual incomes exceeding $200,000, or $300,000 together with their spouses). For transactions covered by Rule 15g-9, a broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchaser and have received the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to sale. As a result, this rule may affect the ability of broker-dealers to sell our securities and may affect the ability of purchasers to sell any of our securities in the secondary market, thus possibly making it more difficult for us to raise additional capital.

For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require delivery, prior to any transaction in penny stock, of a disclosure schedule required by the SEC relating to the penny stock market. Disclosure is also required to be made about sales commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative and current quotations for the securities. Finally, monthly statements are required to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stock.

There can be no assurance that our Common Stock will qualify for exemption from the Penny Stock Rule. Even if our Common Stock were exempt from the Penny Stock Rule, we would remain subject to Section 15(b)(6) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or the Exchange Act, which gives the SEC the authority to restrict any person from participating in a distribution of penny stock, if the SEC finds that such a restriction would be in the public interest.

The penny stock rules may make it difficult for stockholders to sell their shares of our Common Stock. Because of the rules and restrictions applicable to a penny stock, there is less trading in penny stocks and the market price of our Common Stock may be adversely affected. Also, many brokers choose not to participate in penny stock transactions. Accordingly, stockholders may not always be able to resell their shares of our Common Stock publicly at times and prices that they feel are appropriate.

Compliance with the reporting requirements of federal securities laws can be expensive.

We are a public reporting company in the United States, and accordingly, subject to the information and reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, and other federal securities laws. The costs of preparing and filing annual and quarterly reports and other information with the SEC and furnishing audited reports to stockholders are substantial. Failure to comply with the applicable securities laws could result in private or governmental legal action against us or our officers and directors, which could have a detrimental impact on our business and financials, the value of our stock, and the ability of stockholders to resell their stock.

Our investors’ 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 stockholders. We have in the past and may continue to issue a substantial number of shares of Common Stock or other securities convertible into or exercisable for Common Stock in connection with capital raising activity, hiring, or retaining employees, future acquisitions, raising additional capital in the future to fund our operations, and other business purposes. We expect to authorize in the future a substantial number of shares of our Common Stock for issuance under a stock option or similar plan, and may issue equity awards to management, employees, and other eligible persons. Additional shares of Common Stock issued by us in the future will dilute an investor’s investment in the Company. In addition, we may seek stockholder approval to increase the amount of the Company’s authorized stock, which would create the potential for further dilution of current investors.

Directors, executive officers, principal stockholders, and affiliated entities own a significant percentage of our capital stock, and they may make decisions that our stockholders do not consider to be in their best interests.

As of December 17, 2023, our directors, executive officers, principal stockholders, and affiliated entities may be deemed to beneficially own, in the aggregate, approximately 84.08% of our outstanding voting securities. As a result, if some or all of such parties acted together, they would have the ability to exert substantial influence over the election of our board of directors and the outcome of issues requiring approval by our stockholders. This concentration of ownership may also have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company that may be favored by other stockholders. This could prevent transactions in which stockholders might otherwise recover a premium for their shares over current market prices. This concentration of ownership and influence in management and board decision-making could also harm the price of our capital stock by, among other things, discouraging a potential acquirer from seeking to acquire shares of our capital stock (whether by making a tender offer or otherwise) or otherwise attempting to obtain control of our Company.

We do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

We have never declared or paid cash dividends, and we do not anticipate paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Therefore, you should not rely on an investment in our Common Stock as a source for any future dividend income. Our board of directors has complete discretion as to whether to distribute dividends. Even if our board of directors decides to declare and pay dividends, the timing, amount, and form of future dividends, if any, will depend on our future results of operations and cash flow, our capital requirements and surplus, the amount of distributions, if any, received by us from our subsidiary, our financial condition, contractual restrictions, and other factors deemed relevant by our board of directors.

Risks Related to our Operations in Israel

We are subject to the risks of political, economic, health, and military instability in countries outside the United States in which we operate.

Some of our products are produced in Israel, India, China, and other countries which are particularly subject to risks of political, economic, health, and military instability. This instability could result in wars, riots, nationalization of industry, currency fluctuations, and labor unrest or unavailability. These conditions could have an adverse impact on our ability to manufacture, ship, and operate in these regions and, depending on the extent and severity of these conditions, could result in a reduction in customer orders and sales to certain regions and end-markets and materially and adversely affect our overall financial condition and operating results. We have principal manufacturing facilities and operations located in Israel. Accordingly, our business will be directly influenced by the political, economic, and military conditions affecting Israel at any given time.

Conditions in Israel, including the recent attack by Hamas and other terrorist organizations from the Gaza Strip and Israel’s war against them, may affect our operations.

Our offices and management team are located in Israel. Accordingly, our business and operations are directly affected by economic, political, geopolitical and military conditions in Israel. Since the establishment of the State of Israel in 1948, a number of armed conflicts have occurred between Israel and its neighboring countries and terrorist organizations active in the region. These conflicts have involved missile strikes, hostile infiltrations and terrorism against civilian targets in various parts of Israel, which have negatively affected business conditions in Israel.

On October 7, 2023, Hamas terrorists infiltrated Israel’s southern border from the Gaza Strip and conducted a series of attacks on civilian and military targets. Hamas also launched extensive rocket attacks on Israeli population and industrial centers located along Israel’s border with the Gaza Strip and in other areas within the State of Israel. On October 8, 2023, Israel formally declared war on Hamas, and the armed conflict is ongoing as of the date of this filing. These attacks resulted in extensive deaths, injuries and kidnapping of civilians and soldiers. Following the attack, Israel’s security cabinet declared war against Hamas and a military campaign against these terrorist organizations commenced in parallel to their continued rocket and terror attacks. Moreover, the clash between Israel and Hezbollah in Lebanon, may escalate in the future into a greater regional conflict.

Although we currently do not expect the ongoing conflict to affect our business, financial condition and results of operations, there can be no assurances that further unforeseen events will not have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations in the future.

The Israel Defense Force (the “IDF”), the national military of Israel, is a conscripted military service, subject to certain exceptions. Since October 7, 2023, the IDF has called up more than 350,000 of its reserve forces to serve. It is possible that there will be further military reserve duty call-ups in the future, which may affect our business due to a shortage of skilled labor and loss of institutional knowledge, and necessary mitigation measures we may take to respond to a decrease in labor availability, such as overtime and third-party outsourcing, for example, may have unintended negative effects and adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Shelter-in-place and work-from-home measures, government-imposed restrictions on movement and travel and other precautions taken to address the ongoing conflict may temporarily disrupt our employees’ ability to effectively perform their daily tasks.

It is currently not possible to predict the duration or severity of the ongoing conflict or its effects on our business, operations and financial conditions. The ongoing conflict is rapidly evolving and developing, and could disrupt our business and operations, interrupt our sources and availability of supply and hamper our ability to raise additional funds or sell our securities, among others.

In addition to the current war with Hamas, other instances causing political, economic or military instability in Israel may impede our ability to operate and harm our financial results.

In addition to the ongoing war with Hamas, other 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, a number of armed conflicts have occurred between Israel and its neighboring countries. We have never experienced any material interruption in our operations attributable to these factors, in spite of several Middle East crises, including wars. A change in the security and political situation in Israel and in the economy could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, and financial condition.

In recent years, Israel has been subject to certain political instability and increased number of elections were held. Actual or perceived political instability in Israel or any negative changes in the political environment, may individually or in the aggregate adversely affect the Israeli economy and, in turn, our business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects. Changes in the Israeli economy could make it more difficult for us to operate our business and could have a material adverse effect on our business, reputation, financial condition, results of operation, and cash flow.

In the beginning of 2023, the newly formed government commenced a legislative process to effect changes in the Israeli legal system. Certain financial, legal, and commercial organizations and entities have claimed that such changes will weaken the Israeli legal system and, as a result, could lead to negative impact on the economic and financial conditions of the State of Israel. At this stage, where most of the proposed legislation has not become effective, and its scope is not fully determined, we cannot assess the possible impacts of these changes and their likelihood. 

In addition to Hamas, Israel is engaged in sporadic armed conflicts with Hezbollah, an Islamist terrorist group that controls large portions of southern Lebanon, and with Iranian-backed military forces in Syria. In addition, Iran has threatened to attack Israel and may be developing nuclear weapons. Some of these hostilities have been accompanied by missiles being fired from Lebanon against civilian targets in various parts of Israel, including areas in which some of our employees and consultants may be located, and negatively affected business conditions in Israel. Any hostilities involving Israel or the interruption or curtailment of trade between Israel and its trading partners could adversely affect our operations and results of operations.

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

Further, in the past, the State of Israel and Israeli companies have been subjected to economic boycotts. Several countries still restrict business with the State of Israel and with Israeli companies and may do so also specifically as a result of consequences related to the war with Hamas. These restrictive laws and policies may have an adverse impact on our operating results, financial condition, or the expansion of our business. A campaign of boycotts, divestment, and sanctions has been undertaken against Israel, which could also adversely impact our business.

Many Israeli citizens are also obligated to perform several days, and in some cases more, of annual military reserve duty each year until they reach the age of 40 (or older, for reservists who are military officers or who have certain occupations) and, in the event of a military conflict, may be called to active duty. As has been the case with the ongoing war with Hamas, in response to increases in terrorist activity, there have been periods of significant call-ups of military reservists. It is possible that there will be additional military reserve duty call-ups in the future. Our operations could be disrupted by such call-ups, which may include the call-up of members of our management. Such disruption could materially adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition, and results of operations.

It may be difficult for investors in the United States to enforce any judgments obtained against us or some of our directors or officers.

It may be difficult to acquire jurisdiction and enforce liabilities against any of our officers and directors who are based in Israel. It may not be possible for United States investors to enforce their legal rights, to effect service of process upon our directors or officers or to enforce judgments of United States courts predicated upon civil liabilities and criminal penalties of our directors and officers under federal securities laws. Moreover, we have been advised that Israel does not have treaties providing for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of judgments of courts with the United States. Further, it is unclear if extradition treaties now in effect between the United States and Israel would permit effective enforcement of criminal penalties of the federal securities laws. Even if an Israeli court agrees to hear a claim, it may determine that the Israeli law, and not U.S. law, is applicable to the claim. Further, if U.S. law is found to be applicable, certain content of applicable U.S. law must be proved as a fact, which can be a time-consuming and costly process, and certain matters of procedure would still be governed by the Israeli law. Consequently, you may be effectively prevented from pursuing remedies under U.S. federal and state securities laws against us or any of our non-U.S. directors or officers.

Exchange rate 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 U.S. dollars and we expect our future revenues to be denominated primarily in U.S. dollars. However, some of our expenses are in New Israeli Shekels (NIS) and as a result, we are exposed to the currency fluctuation risks relating to the recording of our expenses in U.S. dollars. We may, in the future, decide to enter into currency hedging transactions. These measures, however, may not adequately protect us from material adverse effects.

Exchange rate movements have impacted and may continue to impact our consolidated revenues and operating results. It is particularly difficult to forecast exchange rate movements and unanticipated currency fluctuations have affected and could continue to affect our financial results and cause our results to differ from investor expectations or our own guidance in any future periods. Volatility in exchange rates and global financial markets is expected to continue due to political and economic uncertainty globally

Certain technology developed and used by us received Israeli government grants for certain research and development activities. The terms of those grants require us to satisfy specified conditions in addition to repayment of the grants upon certain events.

The research and development efforts that contributed to certain technology used by us was financed in part through grants from the Israel Innovation Authority (“IIA”) to Medigus, which was subsequently transferred to Odysight.ai (for more information about such agreements, refer to – “CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS” below). The terms of such grants require Odysight.ai to comply with the requirements of the Innovation Law. When a company develops know-how, technology or products using IIA grants, the terms of these grants and the Innovation Law restrict the transfer outside of Israel of such know-how, and the manufacturing or manufacturing rights of such products, technologies or know-how, without the prior approval of the IIA. Therefore, if aspects of our technologies are deemed to have been developed with IIA funding, the discretionary approval of an IIA committee would be required for any transfer to third parties outside of Israel of know-how or manufacturing or manufacturing rights related to those aspects of such technologies. We may not receive those approvals. Furthermore, the IIA may impose certain conditions on any arrangement under which it permits us to transfer technology or development out of Israel.

The transfer of IIA-supported technology or know-how or manufacturing or manufacturing rights related to aspects of such technologies outside of Israel may involve the payment of significant penalties and other amounts, depending upon the value of the transferred technology or know-how, the amount of IIA support, the time of completion of the IIA-supported research project and other factors. These restrictions and requirements for payment may impair our ability to sell our technology assets outside of Israel or to outsource or transfer development or manufacturing activities with respect to any product or technology outside of Israel. Furthermore, the consideration available to our shareholders in a transaction involving the transfer outside of Israel of technology or know-how developed with IIA funding (such as a merger or similar transaction) may be reduced by any amounts that we are required to pay to the IIA.

The Company has applied for and been awarded an additional IIA-funded grant, to support and enhance the Company’s production capabilities. Subject to successfully achieving certain predetermined milestones, the Company will receive a maximum grant amount of NIS 1 million. The grant shall subject the Company to certain restrictions on transfer of manufacturing rights and know-how outside of Israel and will require royalty payments on revenues derived from sales of the products developed from the IIA funding.

We may become subject to claims for remuneration or royalties for assigned service invention rights by our employees, which could result in litigation and adversely affect our business.

A significant portion of our intellectual property has been developed by our employees in the course of their employment for us. Under the Israeli Patent Law, 5727-1967, or the Patent Law, inventions conceived by an employee in the course and as a result of or arising from his or her employment with a company are regarded as “service inventions,” which belong to the employer, absent a specific agreement between the employee and employer giving the employee service invention rights. The Patent Law also provides that if there is no such agreement between an employer and an employee, the Israeli Compensation and Royalties Committee, or the Committee, a body constituted under the Patent Law, will determine whether the employee is entitled to remuneration for his inventions. Recent case law clarifies that the right to receive consideration for “service inventions” can be waived by the employee and that in certain circumstances, such waiver does not necessarily have to be explicit. The Committee will examine, on a case-by-case basis, the general contractual framework between the parties, using interpretation rules of the general Israeli contract laws. Further, the Committee has not yet determined one specific formula for calculating this remuneration (but rather uses the criteria specified in the Patent Law). Although we generally enter into assignment-of-invention agreements with our employees pursuant to which such individuals assign to us all rights to any inventions created in the scope of their employment or engagement with us, we may face claims demanding remuneration in consideration for assigned inventions. As a consequence of such claims, we could be required to pay additional remuneration or royalties to our current and/or former employees, or be forced to litigate such claims, which could negatively affect our business.

MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS

Market Information

Our Common Stock is quoted on the OTCQB under the symbol “SCTC”. Trading in stocks quoted on the OTCQB is often thin and is characterized by wide fluctuations in trading prices due to many factors that may be unrelated to a company’s operations or business prospects. We cannot assure you that there will be a market in the future for our Common Stock.

OTCQB securities are not listed or traded on the floor of an organized national or regional stock exchange. Instead, OTCQB securities transactions are conducted through a telephone and computer network connecting dealers in stocks. OTCQB issuers are traditionally smaller companies that do not meet the financial and other listing requirements of a regional or national stock exchange.

Holders

As of December 17, 2023, there were 40 holders of record of our Common Stock and 10,443,768 shares of our Common Stock outstanding.

Dividends

We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our Common Stock. We currently intend to retain future earnings, if any, to increase our working capital and do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

Section 15(g) of the Exchange Act

Our shares are covered by Section 15(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Rules 15g-1 through 15g-6 and Rule 15g-9 promulgated thereunder. This section and related rules impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell our securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors (generally institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000 or individuals with net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 jointly with their spouses). While Section 15(g) and Rules 15g-1 through 15g-6 apply to brokers-dealers, they do not apply to us.

Rule 15g-1 exempts a number of specific transactions from the scope of the penny stock rules. Rule 15g-2 declares unlawful broker-dealer transactions in penny stocks unless the broker-dealer has first provided to the customer a standardized disclosure document.

Rule 15g-3 provides that it is unlawful for a broker-dealer to engage in a penny stock transaction unless the broker-dealer first discloses and subsequently confirms to the customer current quotation prices or similar market information concerning the penny stock in question.

Rule 15g-4 prohibits broker-dealers from completing penny stock transactions for a customer unless the broker-dealer first discloses to the customer the amount of compensation or other remuneration received as a result of the penny stock transaction.

Rule 15g-5 requires that a broker-dealer executing a penny stock transaction, other than one exempt under Rule 15g-1, disclose to its customer, at the time of or prior to the transaction, information about the sales persons compensation.

Rule 15g-6 requires broker-dealers receiving penny stocks to provide their customers with monthly account statements.

Rule 15g-9 requires broker-dealers to approved the transaction for the customer’s account; obtain a written agreement from the customer setting forth the identity and quantity of the stock being purchased; obtain from the customer information regarding his investment experience; make a determination that the investment is suitable for the investor; deliver to the customer a written statement for the basis for the suitability determination; notify the customer of his rights and remedies in cases of fraud in penny stock transactions; and, the FINRA’s toll free telephone number and the central number of the North American Administrators Association, for information on the disciplinary history of broker-dealers and their associated persons. The application of the penny stock rules may affect your ability to resell your shares.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with our financial statements and the related notes appearing elsewhere in this prospectus. In addition to historical information, this discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. See “Special Note on Forward-Looking Statements” for a discussion of the uncertainties and assumptions associated with these statements. Our actual results may differ materially from those discussed below. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those identified below, and those discussed in the section titled “Risk Factors” included elsewhere in this prospectus.

Overview

We were incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on March 22, 2013, under the name Intellisense Solutions Inc. We were initially engaged in the business of developing web portals to allow companies and individuals to engage in the purchase and sale of vegetarian food products over the Internet. However, were not able to execute our original business plan, develop significant operations, or achieve commercial sales.

On December 30, 2019, we acquired all of the issued and outstanding share capital of ScoutCam Ltd. Following this transaction, we integrated and fully adopted ScoutCam Ltd.’s business into our Company as our primary business activity. On December 31, 2019, we changed our name to ScoutCam Inc. and, on June 5, 2023, we changed our name to Odysight.ai Inc.

We are a pioneer in the development, production and marketing of innovative Predictive Maintenance (PdM) and Condition Based Monitoring (CBM) technologies, providing visual sensing and AI-based video analytics solutions for critical systems in the aviation, maritime, industrial non-destructing-testing industries, transportation, and energy industries. Some of our products utilize our unique micro visualization technology in medical devices for complex and minimally invasive medical procedures. Our technology includes proven video technologies and products amalgamated into a first-of-its-kind, FDA-cleared minimally invasive surgical device. At the present time, we derive a substantial portion of our revenue from applications of our micro visualization technology within the medical field.

Our unique video-based sensors, embedded software, and AI algorithms are being deployed in hard-to-reach locations and harsh environments across a variety of PdM and CBM use cases. Our solution allows maintenance and operations teams visibility into areas which are inaccessible under normal circumstances, or where the operating ambience otherwise is not suitable for continuous real-time monitoring and has various applications which have relevancy in a wide range of industry segments that utilize complicated mechanics requiring ongoing monitoring and predictive maintenance applications. Our current business model is a business-to-business (B2B) approach in which we seek to identify target businesses interested in integrating our micro visualization technology or commissioning individual projects using our technology.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements, which we have prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. We evaluate these estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Our actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

While our significant accounting policies are more fully described in Note 2 to our financial statements appearing elsewhere in this prospectus, we believe that the following accounting policies are the most critical for fully understanding and evaluating our financial condition and results of operations.

Development Services Revenue and Contract Liabilities

We determine at contract inception whether development services are distinct from the performance obligation to manufacture the product under development. Revenues from development services that we determine as distinct from our performance obligation to manufacture the product under development are recognized over the period of the applicable service contract. Revenues from development services that we determine as not distinct from our performance obligation to manufacture the product under development are deferred until commencement of manufacturing and are recognized over the manufacturing term. As a result, during the year 2021, we deferred all service revenues billed by us and the respective service costs. In 2022, we completed the development of our product and moved to its production phase. As a result, since 2022, we have recognized development services revenues and related development costs that had been previously deferred, based on the expected manufacturing term of our product, which we estimate at seven years.

Stock-Based Compensation

We apply the fair value recognition provisions of ASC 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation, or ASC 718, for stock-based awards granted to employees, directors, and other providers for their services. Determining the amount of stock-based compensation to be recorded requires us to develop estimates of the fair value of stock options as of their grant date. We estimate the fair value of each stock option grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Calculating the fair value of stock-based awards requires that we make subjective assumptions.

Pursuant to ASC 718, we measure stock-based awards granted to employees, members of the board of directors and other providers at fair value on the date of grant and recognize the corresponding stock-based compensation expense of those awards on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period.

The Black-Scholes option-pricing model requires a number of assumptions, of which the most significant are the stock price volatility and the expected option term. Our expected dividend rate is zero since we do not currently pay cash dividends and do not anticipate doing so in the foreseeable future. Each of the above factors requires us to use judgment and make estimates in determining the percentages and time periods used for the calculation. If we were to use different percentages or time periods, the fair value of option awards could be materially different. We recognize stock-based compensation cost for option awards on an accelerated basis over the employee’s requisite service period, net of estimated forfeitures.

Volatility is derived from the historical volatility of publicly traded set of peer companies. The risk-free interest rates used in the Black-Scholes calculations are based on the prevailing U.S. Treasury yield as determined by the U.S. Federal Reserve. We have not paid dividends and does not anticipate paying dividends in the foreseeable future. Accordingly, no dividend yield was assumed for purposes of estimating the fair value of our stock-based compensation. The weighted average expected life of options was estimated individually in respect of each grant.

Comparison of the Nine Months Ended September 2023 and 2022

The Company’s primary business activities during last few months were:

Comparison of the Nine months ended September 2023 and 2022 

The following table summarizes our results of operations for the nine month period ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, together with the changes in those items in dollars and as a percentage: 

Revenues

As a result of the nature of our target market and the current stage of our development, a substantial portion of our revenue comes from a limited number of customers.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we generated revenues of $1,087,000, an increase of $581,000, or 115%, compared to revenues of $506,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

The increase in revenues was primarily due to the completion of development of the product relating to our miniature camera solution with a Fortune 500 company during the second quarter of 2022 and moving to production stage. Total revenues recorded from our miniature camera solution with the Fortune 500 company for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 amounted to approximately $1,039,000 compared to $433,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Cost of Revenues

Cost of revenue is primarily comprised of cost of personnel including warehouse personnel costs, certain allocated facilities, and expenses associated with logistics and quality control.

Cost of revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $1,648,000, an increase of $369,000, or 29%, compared to cost of revenues of $1,279,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

The increase was primarily due to an increase in material costs due to an increase in the number of products sold and supplied to the Fortune 500 company.

Gross Loss

Gross loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $561,000, a decrease of $212,000, or 27%, compared to gross loss of $773,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. 

The decrease was primarily due to increase in revenues partially offset by increase in cost of revenues, as described above.

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development efforts are focused on new product development and on developing additional functionality for our new and existing products. These expenses primarily consist of employee-related expenses, including salaries, benefits, and stock-based compensation expense for personnel engaged in research and development functions, consulting, and professional fees related to research and development activities, prototype materials, facility costs, and other allocated expenses, which include expenses for rent and maintenance of our facility, utilities, depreciation, and other supplies. We expense research and development costs as incurred.

Research and development expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 were $4,107,000, an increase of $1,084,000, or 36%, compared to $3,023,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. 

The increase was primarily due to an increase in payroll expenses from additional employee recruitments, as result of enlarging our focus on R&D activities in the domain of I4.0. 

We expect that our research and development expenses will increase as we continue to develop our products and service and recruit additional research and development employees to the I4.0 domain.

Sales and Marketing Expenses

Sales and marketing expenses primarily consist of payroll expenses, consulting services, promotional materials, exhibitions, demonstration equipment, and certain allocated facility infrastructure costs.

Sales and marketing expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 were $877,000, an increase of $260,000, or 42%, compared to $617,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

The increase was primarily due to recent rebranding activities (including expenses related to the changing of the name of the Company, which included designing a new logo and promotional materials). In addition, during June 2023 the Company participated in the Paris Air Show, the world’s premier and largest event dedicated to the aviation and space industry.

This increase was partially offset by a decrease in payroll expenses (including stock-based compensation) due to the resignation of our VP Business Development during the fourth quarter of 2022.

We expect that our selling and marketing expenses will increase as we expand our selling and marketing efforts in the I4.0 domain.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses primarily consist of salaries and other related costs, including stock-based compensation, for personnel in executive, finance, and administrative functions. General and administrative expenses also include direct and allocated facility-related costs as well as professional fees for legal, patent, consulting, investor, public relations, accounting, auditing, tax services, and insurance costs.

General and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 were $3,225,000, a decrease of $37,000, or 1%, compared to $3,262,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Operating loss

We incurred an operating loss of $8,770,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, an increase of $1,095,000, compared to operating loss of $7,675,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

The increase in operating loss was primarily due to an increase in expenses related to research and development and sales and marketing expenses, partially offset by a decrease in general and administrative expenses, each as described above.

Comparison of the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022

The following table summarizes our results of operations for the three months period ended September 30, 2023, and 2022, together with the changes in those items in dollars and as a percentage:

Revenues

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, we generated revenues of $110,000, a decrease of $24,000, or 18%, from the three months ended September 30, 2022.

The decrease in revenues was primarily due to an overall decrease in sales of the Company’s products.

Cost of Revenues

Cost of revenue is primarily comprised of cost of personnel including warehouse personnel costs, certain allocated facilities, and expenses associated with logistics and quality control.

Cost of revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2023 was $321,000, a decrease of $109,000, or 25%, compared to cost of revenues of $430,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2022.

The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in material costs and salary expenses, which was due to decrease in revenues.

Gross Loss

Gross loss for the three months ended September 30, 2023 was $211,000, a decrease of $85,000, or 29%, compared to gross loss of $296,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2022.

The decrease was primarily due to decrease in cost of revenues, partially offset by decrease in revenues as described above.

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development efforts are focused on new product development and on developing additional functionality for our new and existing products. These expenses primarily consist of employee-related expenses, including salaries, benefits, and stock-based compensation expense for personnel engaged in research and development functions, consulting, and professional fees related to research and development activities, prototype materials, facility costs, and other allocated expenses, which include expenses for rent and maintenance of our facility, utilities, depreciation, and other supplies. We expense research and development costs as incurred.

Research and development expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2023 were $1,354,000, an increase of $306,000, or 29%, compared to $1,048,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2022.

The increase was primarily due to an increase in payroll expenses from additional employee recruitments, as result of enlarging our focus on R&D activities in the domain of I4.0.

We expect that our research and development expenses will increase as we continue to develop our products and service and recruit additional research and development employees to the I4.0 domain.

The increase was primarily due to:

Operating loss

We incurred an operating loss of $2,872,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2023, an increase of $547,000, compared to operating loss of $2,325,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2022.

The increase in operating loss was primarily due to increases in expenses related to research and development and sales and marketing expenses.

Comparison of the Year Ended December 31, 2022 and the Year Ended December 31, 2021

Overview

The Company’s primary business activities during 2022 were:

The following table summarizes our results of operations for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, together with the changes in those items in dollars and as a percentage:

Revenues

As a result of the nature of our target market and the current stage of our development, a substantial portion of our revenue comes from a limited number of customers.

For the year ended December 31, 2022, we generated revenues of $665,000, an increase of $278,000, or 72%, from 2021 revenues. The increase in revenues was primarily due to the completion of development of the product relating to our miniature camera solution with a Fortune 500 company and moving to production stage. Total revenues recorded from our miniature camera solution with the Fortune 500 company during 2022, amounted to approximately $538,000. We did not record any revenue from our miniature camera solution with the Fortune 500 company during 2021.

This increase in revenues was partly offset by the following:

- We did not record any revenue from A.M. Surgical during 2022, a decrease of approximately $199,000 from 2021.

- A decrease of $61,000 due to an overall decrease in sales of the Company’s component products to occasional customers.

Remaining performance obligations (“RPOs”) represents contracted revenue that have not yet been recognized, which include deferred revenue and amounts that will be invoiced and recognized as revenue in future periods. As of December 31, 2022, the total RPO amounted to $3.6 million, which we expect to recognize over the expected manufacturing term of the product under development.

Cost of Revenues

Cost of revenues for the year ended December 31, 2022, were $1,631,000, an increase of $523,000, or 47%, compared to cost of revenues of $1,108,000 for the year ended December 31, 2021. The increase was primarily due to:

- An increase in payroll expenses due to additional employee recruitments (such as in the areas of procurement, production planning and control, engineering, and quality inspectors) to support the transition to serial production for the Fortune 500 customer.

- In the second quarter of 2022, the Company completed the development stage of its miniature camera solution and moved to the production stage. As a result, the Company recognized expenses of $180,000 during the year ended December 31, 2022, based on the expected manufacturing term of the product.

Gross Loss

Gross loss for the year ended December 31, 2022, was $966,000, an increase of $245,000, or 34%, compared to a gross loss of $721,000 for the year ended December 31, 2021. The increase was primarily due to increase in cost of revenues partially offset by an increase in revenue as described above.

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development efforts are focused on new product development and on developing additional functionality for our new and existing products. These expenses primarily consist of employee-related expenses, including salaries, benefits, and stock-based compensation expense for personnel engaged in research and development functions, consulting, and professional fees related to research and development activities, prototype materials, facility costs, and other allocated expenses, which include expenses for rent and maintenance of our facility, utilities, depreciation, and other supplies. We expense research and development costs as incurred.

Research and development expenses for the year ended December 31, 2022, were $4,197,000, an increase of $2,195,000, or 110%, compared to $2,002,000 for the year ended December 31, 2021. The increase was primarily due to an increase in payroll expenses (including stock-based compensation) due to additional employee recruitments, materials and subcontractors, rent and maintenance expenses due to increased focus on R&D activities in the domain of I4.0.

We expect that our research and development expenses will increase as we continue to develop our products and service and recruit additional research and development employees to the I4.0 domain.

Sales and Marketing Expenses

Sales and marketing expenses primarily consist of personnel costs, consulting services, promotional materials, demonstration equipment, and certain allocated facilities infrastructure costs.

Sales and marketing expenses for the year ended December 31, 2022, were $699,000, a decrease of $209,000, or 23%, compared to $908,000 for the year ended December 31, 2021. The decrease was primarily due to reductions in sales and marketing costs in the medical field.

We expect that our selling and marketing expenses will increase as we increase our selling and marketing efforts in the I4.0 domain.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses primarily consist of salaries and other related costs, including stock-based compensation, for personnel in executive, finance, and administrative functions. General and administrative expenses also include direct and allocated facility-related costs as well as professional fees for legal, patent, consulting, investor, public relations, accounting, auditing, tax services, and insurance costs.

General and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2022, were $3,577,000, a decrease of $1,904,000, or 35%, compared to $5,481,000 for the year ended December 31, 2021.

The decrease was primarily due to:

- A decrease in stock-based compensation of $580,000.

- A decrease in IP expenses of $506,000.

- A decrease in professional services of $334,000, mainly due to expenses of $206,000 in expenses incurred in 2021 related to our efforts to uplist to Nasdaq.

- Cancellation of a provision of $129,000 related to additional taxes due following our entrance into an agreement with the Israeli Tax Authority. In September 2021, the Company accrued an amount of approximately NIS 740,000 ($229,000) for additional taxes due following a VAT audit by the Israeli Tax Authority for the years 2019-2021. In July 2022, the Company reached an agreement with the Israeli Tax Authority, according to which the amount due of additional taxes was reduced to approximately NIS 340,000 ($100,000).

Operating loss

We incurred an operating loss of $9,439,000 for the year ended December 31, 2022, an increase of $327,000, or 4%, compared to operating loss of $9,112,000 for the year ended December 31, 2021. The increase in operating loss was primarily due to increases in gross loss and expenses related to research and development, partially offset by decrease in general and administrative expenses and sales and marketing expenses.

Comparison of the Year Ended December 31, 2021 and the Year Ended December 31, 2020

Overview

The Company’s primary business activities during 2021 were:

Other major activities were the following:

The following table summarizes our results of operations for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, together with the changes in those items in dollars and as a percentage:

Revenues

For the year ended December 31, 2021, we generated revenues of $387,000, a decrease of $104,000, or 21%, from 2020 revenues. The decrease in revenues was primarily due to sales of products to A.M. Surgical. Total sales to A.M. Surgical during year ended December 31, 2021 amounted to approximately $199,000, a decrease from approximately $383,000 in 2020. This decrease was partially offset by increase in the sales of our products to other customers.

RPOs represent contracted revenue that has not yet been recognized, which includes deferred revenue and amounts that will be invoiced and recognized as revenue in future periods. As of December 31, 2021, the total RPO amounted to $3.2 million, which we will recognize over the expected manufacturing term of the product under development.

Cost of Revenues

Cost of revenues for the year ended December 31, 2021 were $1,108,000, an increase of $114,000, or 11%, compared to cost of revenues of $994,000 for the year ended December 31, 2020. The increase was primarily due to an increase in payroll expenses (including stock-based compensation) as a result of hiring additional employees as part of the transition to the production stage with respect to the contract with a Fortune 500 multinational healthcare corporation, partially offset by decrease in materials as a result of a decrease in revenues.

Gross Loss

Gross loss for the year ended December 31, 2021 was $721,000, an increase of $218,000, or 43%, compared to a gross loss of $503,000 for the year ended December 31, 2020. The increase was primarily due to a decrease in revenues and an increase in cost of revenues as described above.

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development expenses for the year ended December 31, 2021 were $2,002,000, an increase of $1,277,000, or 176%, compared to $725,000 for the year ended December 31, 2020. The increase was primarily due to an increase in payroll expenses (including stock-based compensation) due to additional employee recruitments, materials and subcontractors, and because we have begun examining additional applications for our micro Odysight™ portfolio outside of the medical, defense and aerospace fields, including in sectors such as automotive, industrial non-destructing-testing industries, automotive, and energy.

In addition, there was an increase in R&D payroll expenses in 2021 due to the fact that during 2020 a substantial part of the payroll expenses was capitalized as a contract fulfillment asset and was not recognized as expenses in profit and loss.

We expect that our research and development expenses will increase as we continue to develop our products and service and recruit additional research and development employees to the I4.0 domain.

Sales and Marketing Expenses

Sales and marketing expenses for the year ended December 31, 2021 were $908,000, an increase of $465,000, or 105%, compared to $443,000 for the year ended December 31, 2020.

The increase was primarily due to expanding marketing activity, including the recruitment of a VP Business Development in Industry 4.0, hiring consultants and launching a multi-platform digital marketing campaign.

We expect that our selling and marketing expenses will increase as we continue to increase our selling and marketing efforts.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2021 were $5,481,000, an increase of $2,446,000, or 81%, compared to $3,035,000 for the year ended December 31, 2020.

The increase was primarily due to:

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of September 30, 2023, we had cash and cash equivalents of $15.9 million and $3.6 million of short-term deposits compared to cash and cash equivalents $10.1 million and $3 million of short-term deposits as of December 31, 2022. As of September 30, 2023 we had incurred an accumulated deficit of approximately $32.9 million, compared to $24.8 million as of December 31, 2022.

Our primary sources of liquidity to date have been from fund raising and warrant exercises.

Additional Cash Requirements

We plan to continue to invest for long-term growth, and therefore we expect that our expenses will increase. We currently believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents and short-term deposits will allow us to fund our operating plan through at least the next 12 months. We expect our expenses will increase in connection with our ongoing activities, particularly as we continue the research and development and the scale up process of our I4.0 solutions. We expect to incur significant commercialization expenses related to product sales, marketing, manufacturing, and distribution. Furthermore, we will continue to incur additional costs associated with operating as a public company. Accordingly, we will need to obtain substantial additional funding in connection with our continuing operations. We may raise these funds through equity financing, debt financing, or other sources, which may result in further dilution in the equity ownership of our Common Stock. There is no assurance that we will be able to maintain operations at a level sufficient for investors to obtain a return on their investment in our Common Stock, or that we will be able to raise sufficient capital required to implement our business plan on acceptable terms, if at all. Even if we are successful in raising sufficient capital to implement our business plan, we will, most likely, continue to be unprofitable for the foreseeable future. If we are unable to raise capital when needed or on attractive terms, we would be forced to delay, reduce, or eliminate our research and development programs or future commercialization efforts.

Cash Flows

Our primary uses of cash from operating activities have been for headcount-related expenditures, research and development costs, manufacturing costs, marketing and promotional expenses, professional services cost, and costs related to our facilities. Our cash flows from operating activities will continue to be affected due to the expected increase in spending on our business and to meet our working capital requirements.

BUSINESS

Overview

Our Mission

We are a pioneer in the development, production, and marketing of innovative Predictive Maintenance (PdM) and Condition Based Monitoring (CBM) technologies, providing visual sensing and AI-based video analytics solutions for critical systems in the aviation, maritime, industrial non-destructing-testing industries, transportation, and energy industries. Some of our products utilize our unique micro visualization technology in medical devices for complex and minimally invasive medical procedures. Our technology includes proven video technologies and products amalgamated into a first-of-its-kind, FDA-cleared minimally invasive surgical device. At the present time, we derive a substantial portion of our revenue from applications of our micro visualization technology within the medical field.

Our Business Model

Our unique video-based sensors, embedded software, and AI algorithms are being deployed in hard-to-reach locations and harsh environments across a variety of PdM and CBM use cases. Our solution allows maintenance and operations teams visibility into areas which are inaccessible under normal circumstances, or where the operating ambience otherwise is not suitable for continuous real-time monitoring and has various applications which have relevancy in a wide range of industry segments that utilize complicated mechanics requiring ongoing monitoring and predictive maintenance applications. Our current business model is a business-to-business (B2B) approach in which we seek to identify target businesses interested in integrating our micro visualization technology or commissioning individual projects using our technology. We have several successful proof of concepts in airborne platforms of various OEM’s in aerospace and have completed a successful demonstration project for a top global elevator systems manufacturer. As provided above, we are developing additional applications for our visual solutions portfolio (composed of image acquisition, data collection, and storage and image processing), including PdM and CBM (we refer to these applications and sectors as Industry 4.0, or I4.0), which generate a number of potential benefits for our customers.

The following graphic demonstrates Odysight.ai’s value proposition, starting with increased safety and reduced down time due to our ability to visually analyze any failure occurrence in real time, and including more sophisticated benefits like big data analytics that provide predictive insights regarding to an entire system life cycle, spare parts management and smart prediction regrading system performance.

Who we are: History and Background

We were incorporated as a corporation under the laws of the State of Nevada on March 22, 2013, under the name Intellisense Solutions Inc. (“Intellisense”). We were initially engaged in the business of developing web portals to allow companies and individuals to engage in the purchase and sale of vegetarian food products over the Internet. However, we were unable to execute our original business plan, develop significant operations or achieve commercial sales.

We received initial funding in March 2014 in the aggregate amount of $19,980 through the sale of Common Stock to two of our former officers and directors, who purchased in the aggregate 1,998,000 shares of our Common Stock at $0.01 per share.

On January 10, 2019, we formed Canna Patch Ltd., or Canna Patch, an Israeli corporation, of which 90% was initially owned by our Company, and the remaining 10% owned by Rafael Ezra, Canna Patch’s Chief Technology Officer. Canna Patch did not have any operations and on December 4, 2019, we sold 100% of our holdings in Canna Patch.

On September 16, 2019, Intellisense and Medigus Ltd., an Israeli company traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market, entered into the Exchange Agreement.

On December 30, 2019, we acquired Odysight.ai Ltd. (formerly known as ScoutCam Ltd.). As a result of our acquisition of Odysight.ai, we own all of Odysight.ai’s issued and outstanding share capital and have integrated and adopted Odysight.ai’s business into our Company as our primary business activity.

Odysight.ai Ltd. was formed in the State of Israel on January 3, 2019, as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Medigus and commenced operations on March 1, 2019. Odysight.ai Ltd. was incorporated as part of a reorganization of Medigus, which was designed to distinguish Odysight.ai Ltd.’s miniaturized imaging business, or the micro Odysight.ai™ portfolio, from Medigus’ other operations and to enable Medigus to form a separate business unit with dedicated resources focused on the promotion of such technology. On December 1, 2019, Medigus and Odysight.ai Ltd. consummated a certain Amended and Restated Asset Transfer Agreement, which transferred and assigned certain assets and intellectual property rights related to its miniaturized imaging business. On May 18, 2020, in connection with the Arkin Transaction (as defined below), the Company and Medigus entered into a certain Side Letter Agreement (the “Letter Agreement”), whereby the parties agreed to amend certain terms of the Amended and Restated Asset Transfer Agreement and the License Agreement.

On April 20, 2020, Odysight.ai entered into an Amended and Restated Intercompany Services Agreement with Medigus (the “Intercompany Services Agreement”), which effectively amended and restated an intercompany services agreement dated May 30, 2019.

For additional information about the Amended and Restated Asset Transfer Agreement, the Letter Agreement and the Intercompany Services Agreement, refer to – “CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS” below.

Sales and Marketing

Our vision is to become a leading provider of video analytics based, PdM solutions for the aerospace, other industry and medical critical system markets.

We engage companies seeking to add video visualization to their existing or new product(s) or considering the development of new products that include micro video visualization. Our approach to the medical market is ordinarily conducted in two phases. During the first phase, we conduct the research and development that is required in order to specify, design, develop, and produce the designated visualization apparatus, for an agreed-upon compensation amount (e.g., a non-recurrent engineering fee). During the second phase, we manufacture the apparatus and offer it to the customer for an agreed-upon transfer price.

In the I4.0 domain, which target PdM and CBM applications, we engage with companies that wish to increase the monitoring capabilities of different elements of a device using our visual monitoring solutions (these include build of image acquisition, data collection and storage, and image processing capabilities based on AI, ML, cloud, and additional algorithm concepts). Based on our product portfolio with customized solutions as needed, this will allow our customers to receive real time alerts on anomalies and failures of monitored components, analyze and track trends and development of the anomaly, and predict any impending failure of the component as a result of such anomaly over time and usage. As a result, we expect customers to benefit from a reduction in downtime, lower maintenance expenses, and increased safety of their monitored equipment, using the prediction capabilities of the platform to efficiently plan maintenance work on future faulty components. Another outcome we expect is more cost effective management of resources, since components will only need to be replaced as a result of their actual condition rather than a strict maintenance schedule.

The use of an image based platform in the fields of PdM and CBM provides richer and more informative data and insights than traditional sensing methods. Together with the AI and ML models customized for the relevant use cases, we expect this will provide customers with a clearer view of the status of their equipment, increasing revenues by saving on direct expenses, and increasing the uptime of their equipment.

On February 6, 2023, we announced the completion of a major development stage in equipping Elbit Systems Ltd.’s leading defense UAS aerial platforms with our real time video monitoring system. Through the program, our unique video-based sensors, embedded software, machine vision and algorithms support a variety of predictive maintenance and condition-based monitoring use cases for unmanned aerial vehicles in harsh environments and hard-to-reach locations, as it features a modular open system architecture, enabling seamless integration with advanced unmanned aerial platforms.

On July 31, 2023, we announced a collaboration with the Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI) through which the IAI will utilize our advanced visual sensing and video analytics technology in a visual based health monitoring system for UH60 (Blackhawk) helicopters. By harnessing our multiple highly resilient video-based sensors, embedded software, video analytics and AI algorithms specifically designed for the UH60 helicopter, this solution will provide real-time insights into the health of UH60 helicopters, improving safety measures, minimizing downtime, optimizing spare parts management, and enabling the implementation of predictive maintenance strategies.

On December 4, 2023, we announced  a strategic partnership to develop advanced applications for aerospace and industrial markets worldwide with SIPAL S.P.A., a leading company in Italy in the engineering sector. The goal of the collaboration is a next generation maintenance solution that will allow maintenance crews the ability to review and have real time visual inspection of an aircraft's internal system without the need for removing a single panel or a hatch.

In order to engage new customers, we employ various marketing strategies. We employ several professional experienced managers in relevant fields of expertise, in addition to a team of consultants who analyze global trends and designated geographical territories to assist us in targeting potential customers.

Our marketing efforts include, but are not limited to, the following:

In addition to our business development efforts that are mainly based on currently existing or future customer needs, we aim to identify new market opportunities. These efforts include systematic analysis of various industrial and medical fields and procedures to identify where visualization solutions, including image analysis, might add value. When a potential opportunity is identified, we seek to protect our rights by establishing relevant intellectual property safeguards, developing prototypes for the required application. In the medical domain, we currently sell our system to a fortune 500 corporation; in this respect, we seek to partner with additional relevant companies to progress our technology into prototypes which, in turn, will be developed into market-ready products.

In January 2022, we entered into a patent cross-licensing arrangement with Japan-based Sumita Optical Glass, Inc. (Sumita), a specialty optical fiber technology company, pursuant to which we granted a non-exclusive license to Sumita to our patents related to “Small Diameter Video Camera Heads and Medical Devices and Visualization Probes containing them” in return for payment of royalties and a grant-back license to Odysight.ai of Sumita’s patent and patent applications related to fiber optics illumination. For additional information on our patent portfolio, refer to – “PROPRIETARY RIGHTS AND TECHNOLOGY” below.

Our Customers

Currently, we have one major customer, a leading Fortune 500 multinational healthcare corporation, that is expected to generate most of our forecasted revenue in the near term. In June 2022, we announced that we completed the verification and validation stage of our miniature camera solution with this client and, on January 26, 2023, we announced that we had received a $1.45 million order from this client. On October 17, 2023, we announced a solidified purchase order with this client and that formal commitments under the purchase order amount to a total of $3.3 million for fiscal year 2024.

In addition, we derive a substantial portion of our revenue from applications of our micro visualization technology within the medical field.

��

Competition

There are currently several companies that develop and provide monitoring solutions for PdM and CBM. These monitoring solutions can be the sensor itself, data collection and storage, AI processing, or a combination of these capabilities. The CBM and PdM solutions are usually based on traditional sensing solutions such as vibration, temperature, and acoustic sensors. Based on our research and discussions with customers, we believe these traditional sensing methods are limited in their ability to provide an in-depth view of the condition of the monitored components and usually alert on the occurrence of an anomaly when component failure has already occurred, which is too late in some cases. From the AI perspective, there are several vendors providing off-the-shelf AI capabilities which then require customization per market, use case, and/or data source. We believe that our more holistic approach and reliance on image-based solutions creates richer and more informative data, leveraged by AI and ML algorithms, enabling our customers to deploy predictive maintenance programs.

Proprietary Rights and Technology

Our solution for the market is based on our core intellectual property which we seek to review and patent on a regular basis, where applicable. We are heavily invested in creating patents for our core technology.

Our patent portfolio currently contains patent families which we consider material to our business and operating success. Our intellectual property rights include patents and patent applications that were transferred to us by Medigus as part of the Addendum No. 1 to Amended and Restated Asset Transfer Agreement (the “Addendum”), the License Agreement and the Letter Agreement, and additional patent assets developed by us. For additional information about the License Agreement refer to – “CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS” below.

Despite our efforts to protect our intellectual property, unauthorized parties may still copy or otherwise obtain and use our technology. For additional information, refer to – “WE MAY NOT BE SUCCESSFUL IN ENFORCING OUR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS AGAINST THIRD PARTIES” above.

Employment

We currently have approximately 52 full-time (or near full-time) employees. This number is expected to grow. We may recruit additional employees to the R&D team.

Research and Development

Our R&D organization is responsible for the design, development, testing, and delivery of new technologies, features, products, and integrations of our component parts. Research and development employees are located primarily in our principal corporate office on Omer, Israel. We currently have approximately 25 employees in our research and development organization. We intend to continue to invest in our research and development capabilities.

Our R&D efforts are focused on the following areas: (i) maturing our multi camera solution based on advanced visualization sensor technologies focusing on sensing, computing, and prediction, cooperating with customers for mutual development projects that demonstrate our technology by reaching customer KPIs and (ii) our industrial cloud-based product, which leverages our already in place cloud environment to develop mutual proof of concept and minimal valuable product for our customers that enable cloud base solutions for customer KPIs.

Regulation

Our approach to regulation is generally determined based on a given project. In our engagements with customers operating in the biomedical sector, we comply with the medical device standards in that corresponding territory, such as the FDA or International Organization for Standardization (ISO), among others. Compliance with these regulations is achieved through our QA department and the support we receive from highly experienced quality assurance and regulatory affairs consultants. In addition, we are being audited annually by MEDCERT GmbH, a German Notified Body.

For instance, ISO 13485:2016 is a regulatory benchmark that we comply with while working on our medical device projects. ISO 13845:2016 is similar to ISO 9001 in terms of its quality management system (QMS) requirements, however, ISO 13485:2016 is generally considered more rigorous and comprehensive.

Given that we do not manufacture or distribute end-user products to the medical sector, and instead service businesses pursuant to a B2B model, we are subject to fewer regulatory standards commonly associated with medical device manufacturers or distributors. We develop and manufacture components for other companies, and therefore our involvement in the regulatory submission demands comparatively less responsibility. This notwithstanding, we communicate with business customers in order to identify certain regulatory dimensions inherent to a project, to which we should pay additional attention. For example, when a component of ours is integrated into a business’s end-user product, such as for the purpose of touching human tissue, we develop and manufacture our parts and components while taking into account certain applicable regulatory standards. These standards might include, inter alia, relevant FDA regulations (e.g. CFR 21 part 820, the medical device reporting requirements (MDR), among others) as well as ISO regulations (e.g. ISO 14644-1, specifically in connection with cleanrooms and associated controlled environments, among other items, or ISO 10993, in connection with the biological evaluation of medical devices). Furthermore, we prioritize our team’s compliance with the Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directives (RoHS) and REACH (EC 1907/2006).

Similarly, if a component part of ours is incorporated into an electronic device for the purpose of being used inside a human body, we comply with certain FDA requirements as well as IEC 60601 for safety and electrostatic discharge, including the heating of parts at more than 42 degrees Celsius and a variety of additional technical standards designed for the safety and essential performance of electronic medical equipment. Moreover, we perform risk management assessments in accordance with EN ISO 14971:2019 and ISO/TR 24971:2020.

In certain instances, our customers prefer that we conduct the testing of its products in internationally certified labs in order to further guarantee that our component parts satisfy applicable regulatory standards. In this scenario, we perform the required tests as a service to the customer and provide the customer with the official test results, specifically in accordance with ISO/IEC 17025:2017, which the customer can later use in order to apply for the required marketing clearance of its end-user product.

Since we are seeking to sell our products to customers in the aviation sector, we have completed the process of implementing the AS9100D Standard to comply with aerospace industry requirements.

As a U.S. company with foreign offices, we are subject to a variety of foreign laws governing our foreign operations, as well as U.S. laws that restrict trade and certain practices, such as the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.

Israeli Government Programs

As a result of certain agreements between Medigus and Odysight.ai Ltd. (for additional information about these agreements refer to – “CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS” below), the IIA approved a transfer of IIA know-how developed by Medigus in the framework of the Bio Medical Photonic Consortium, or the Medigus Consortium, to Odysight.ai.

Accordingly, all rights and obligations with regard to the IIA under the Encouragement of Research, Development and Technological Innovation in the Industry Law, 5744-1984, or the Innovation Law, in connection with such know-how now apply to Odysight.ai.

The following are details regarding the rights and obligations within the framework of our activity in the Medigus Consortium, which continue to apply to us notwithstanding the termination of the Medigus Consortium:

Obligations relevant to us under the Innovation Law include the following:

On May 21, 2023, the Company was awarded an additional grant by the IIA. The purpose of this grant is to support and enhance the Company’s production capabilities. Subject to the Company successfully achieving all predetermined milestones, the maximum grant amount that can be received is NIS 1 million.

Under the Innovation Law and the terms of the grant, royalties on the revenues derived from sales of products developed with IIA funding will be payable to the Israeli government, generally at the rate of 3%. The royalty terms shall differ if we receive IIA approval to manufacture or to transfer the rights to manufacture our products developed by way of the IIA grant outside of Israel. The obligation to make these payments terminates upon full repayment of the grant amount, subject to adjustment for fluctuation in the dollar/shekel exchange rate, plus interest.

Pursuant to the terms of the grant under the Innovation Law, recipients of funding from the IIA are prohibited from (i) manufacturing products developed using IIA grants or derived from technology developed with IIA grants outside of Israel and (ii) transferring rights to manufacture such products outside of Israel. However, the IIA could, in special cases, approve the transfer of manufacturing or of manufacturing rights of a product developed in an approved program or which resulted therefrom, outside of Israel. If we were to receive approval to manufacture or to transfer the rights to manufacture our products developed with IIA-funding outside of Israel, we would be required to pay an increased total amount of royalties (possibly up to 300% of the grant plus interest), depending on the portion of total manufacturing that was performed outside of Israel.

The terms of the grant under the Innovation Law prohibit transferring or licensing our IIA-financed technologies, technologies derived therefrom, and related intellectual property rights and know-how outside of Israel, except under limited circumstances and only with the approval of the IIA and generally upon making a payment to the IIA. If received, we could be required to pay the IIA an amount calculated in accordance with the applicable formula set out in the applicable IIA grant track. The scope of the support received, the royalties that we already paid to the IIA, the amount of time that elapsed between the date on which the technology was transferred, the date on which the applicable project performance period for the IIA grants was completed, the sale price, and the form of transaction are all factors to be taken into account in calculating the amount of payment to the IIA in connection with a transfer or license of IIA-funded technologies. The repayment amount is subject to a maximum limit calculated in accordance with a formula set forth in the guidelines published by the IIA. In addition, any decrease in the percentage of manufacturing performed in Israel of any product or technology, as originally declared in the application to the IIA with respect to such product or technology, could require notification by us to or obtaining the approval of the IIA, and could result in increased royalty payments to the IIA of up to 300% of the total grant amounts received in connection with such product or technology, plus interest, depending on the portion of total manufacturing that was performed outside of Israel.

Approval of the transfer or license of technology to residents of Israel is required and could be granted in specific circumstances, but only if the recipient agrees to abide by the provisions of applicable law, including the restrictions on the transfer of know-how and the obligation to pay royalties. An additional royalty payment is generally required to be made from the consideration paid for such transfer.

The State of Israel does not own any intellectual property rights in technology developed with IIA funding and there is no restriction on the export of products manufactured using technology and know-how developed with IIA funding. The technology and know-how are, however, subject to transfer of technology and manufacturing rights restrictions as described above.

Recent Developments Potentially Affecting Our Business

On October 7, 2023, war broke out in Israel as a result of a deadly attack by the Hamas terrorist organization on communities skirting the Gaza Strip in the southern part of Israel. The war has led to consequences and restrictions with respect to the Israeli economy, including a curtailment of business activities, a significant call-up of military reserves, limitations on gatherings in places of work and public areas in certain parts of the country, restrictions on carrying on the operation of some schools in the educational system, and others.

Following the attack, Israel’s security cabinet declared war against Hamas and commenced a military campaign against Hamas and other terrorist organizations in parallel to their continued rocket and terror attacks. While our executive offices are located in Omer and Ramat Gan, Israel, neither office is located near Israel’s borders where the main hostilities are currently taking place. Nevertheless, we have experienced some disruptions to our work and several of our employees, including our CEO Yehu Ofer, have been called into military reserve duty (in Mr. Ofer’s case, he is still able to work a full-time schedule for the Company). We have taken several measures to help mitigate the effects of the war, including adopting work-from-home measures and reviewing our business continuity plan. Although none of the disruptions we have experienced to date have been material, it is still too early to assess the full impact of Israel’s war against Hamas on our business and operations. See also Risk Factors – “Conditions in Israel, including the recent attack by Hamas and other terrorist organizations from the Gaza Strip and Israel’s war against them, may affect our operations”.

Staggered Board

Our board of directors is divided into three classes. Zeev Vurembrand and Nir Nimrodi are our Class I directors, with their terms of office to expire at our 2025 annual meeting of stockholders. Jackson Schneider, Ronit Rubin and Inbal Kreiss are our Class II directors, with their terms of office to expire at our 2026 annual meeting of stockholders. Professor Benad Goldwasser and Moshe (Mori) Arkin are our Class III directors, with their terms of office to expire at our 2024 annual meeting of stockholders. At each annual meeting of stockholders, directors elected to succeed those directors whose terms expire shall be elected for a term of office to expire at the third succeeding annual meeting of stockholders after their election, with each director to hold office until his or her successor shall have been duly elected and qualified.

Our board of directors may consider a broad range of factors relating to the qualifications and background of nominees to serve as director, which may include various diversity factors. We have no formal policy regarding board diversity.

Our officers hold office until the earlier of their death, resignation or removal by our board of directors or until their successors have been selected. They serve at the pleasure of our board of directors.

Family Relationships

There are no family relationships between or among any of our directors or executive officers.

Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings

To our knowledge, our directors and executive officers have not been involved in any of the following events during the past ten years:

Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act

Our Common Stock is not registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act. Accordingly, our directors, officers and principal stockholders are not subject to the beneficial ownership reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act.

Code of Ethics

We have adopted a code of business conduct and ethics that applies to all of our directors, officers, and employees (including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions). We have made the code of business conduct and ethics available on our website at https://www.odysight.ai/. We will disclose promptly by posting such disclosure on our website any amendment to or waiver from the code of business conduct and ethics for our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions, as required by law or SEC regulations. Information contained on, or that can be accessed through, our website does not constitute a part of this prospectus.

Director Independence

Our board of directors has determined that Professor Benad Goldwasser, Jackson Schneider, Ms. Inbal Kreiss, Ms. Ronit Rubin, Mr. Zeev Vurembrand, and Mr. Nir Nimrodi do not have a relationship that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director and that each of these directors is “independent”. We are not currently subject to listing requirements of any national securities exchange, which generally stipulate certain requirements that a majority of a company’s board of directors be classified as “independent”. As a result, we are not at this time required to have our board of directors comprised of a majority of “independent directors”. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we have voluntarily adopted the definition of “independent” as defined under Nasdaq Rule 5605(a)(2), and believe Professor Goldwasser, Mr. Schneider, Ms. Kreiss, Ms. Rubin, Mr. Vurembrand, and Mr. Nimrodi qualify accordingly.

Board Leadership Structure and Role in Risk Oversight

Our board of directors is primarily responsible for overseeing our risk management processes on behalf of the Company. The board of directors intends going forward to receive and review periodic reports from management, auditors, legal counsel, and others, as considered appropriate regarding our assessment of risks. The board of directors intends to focus on the most significant risks facing the Company and our general risk management strategy, and also will attempt to ensure that risks undertaken by the Company are consistent with our board of directors’ appetite for risk. While the board of directors oversees our risk management, management is responsible for day-to-day risk management processes.
