(Unaudited)
Note 1. The Company and Significant Accounting Policies.
Organizational Background:
Virtual Crypto Technologies, Inc., f/k/a Emerald Medical Applications Corp. (the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”“Company”), was incorporated in the State of Ohio in 1989 under a predecessor name, Zaxis International, Inc. (“Zaxis”). On August 25, 1995, Zaxis merged with a subsidiary of The InFerGene Company, a Delaware corporation, which entity changed its name to Zaxis International, Inc. and the Company was reincorporated in Delaware under the name of Zaxis International, Inc. On December 30, 2014, Zaxis entered into an agreement with Emerald Medical Applications Ltd., a private limited liability company organized under the laws of the State of Israel (“Emerald Israel”).
On March 16, 2015, Zaxis and Emerald Israel executed the Share Exchange Agreement, which closed on July 14, 2015 (the “Share Exchange Agreement”) and Emerald Israel became the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary. Emerald Israel was engaged in the business of developing Emerald Israel’s DermaCompare technology and the development, sale and service of imaging solutions utilizing its DermaCompare software for use in derma imaging and analytics for the detection of skin cancer.
During the fourth quarter of 2015, in connection with the Share Exchange Agreement, the Company changed its name to Emerald Medical Applications Corp. The Share Exchange Agreement was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization. As a result, the historical financial statements of the Company were replaced with the historical financial statements of Emerald Israel. Reference is made to the disclosure under “Cessation of Former Operations”below.
New Business Developments
On January 17, 2018, the Company formed a new wholly-ownedwholly owned subsidiary inunder the laws of the State of Israel, Virtual Crypto Technologies Ltd. (the “New Subsidiary”“Subsidiary”), to develop and market software and hardware products facilitating, allowing and supporting purchase and/or sale of cryptocurrencies through ATMs, tablets, personal computers (“PCs”) and/or mobile devices. Reference is made to the disclosure under “Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis and Results of Operations” located below in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Cessation of Former Operations
On January 29, 2018, the Company ceased the DermaCompare operations of its former subsidiary, Emerald Israel, and on May 2, 2018, the District Court of Lod, Israel issued a winding-up order for Emerald Israel and nominated an Israeli advocate (attorney) as a special executor for Emerald Israel. To the extent that the liquidation procedure yields proceeds in excess of Emerald Israel’s current obligations, the first $250,000 of such excess will be distributed to the previous stockholders of the Company’s preferred stock (see Note 3) and any excess thereafter, to the Company. However, based on the Company’s current best estimate, it is not anticipated that any such excess proceeds will be achieved. See Note 6. Discontinued Operations.
Going ConcernConcern:
The Company has incurred significant operating losses and negative cash flows from operating activities in relation to its DermaCompare operations, since inception. While the Company raised approximately $2$1.9 million in the first nine months ofyear ended December 31, 2018 to fund the operations of its New Subsidiary, the Company will require additional capital resources in order to support the commercialization of the New Subsidiary’s technology and operations and maintain its research and development activities related to the New Subsidiary’s technology. The Company is addressing its liquidity needs by seeking additional funding from public and/or private sources. There are no assurances, however, that the Company will be able to obtain an adequate level of financial resources that are required for the Company’s short and long-term requirements, or at all.
Theseall these conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.uncertainty
Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies:
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-wholly owned subsidiary, the New Subsidiary, prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. The financial statements presented herein have not been audited by an independent registered public accounting firm but include all material adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the period. However, these results are not necessarily indicative of results for any other interim period or for the full fiscal year. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make certain estimates and assumptions for the reporting periods covered by the financial statements. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Actual amounts could differ from these estimates.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been omitted pursuant to the rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017,2018, filed with the SEC on April 17, 2018March 28, 2019 (the “Annual Report”).
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company assesses the adoption impacts of recently issued accounting standards by the Financial Accounting Standards Board on its financial statements. Following are newly issued standards or material updates to the Company’s previous assessments from the Annual Report:
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued a new standard to achieve a consistent application of revenue recognition within the U.S., resulting in a single revenue model to be applied by reporting companies under GAAP. Under the new model, recognition of revenue occurs when a customer obtains control of the promised goods or services in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In addition, the new standard requires that reporting companies disclose the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The new standard is effective with respect to the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2018; early adoption is prohibited. The new standard is required to be applied retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying it recognized at the date of initial application. As the Company has not incurred revenues to date, it does not expect the new standard to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In February 2016, the FASB issued a new lease accounting standard requiring the recognition of lease assets and liabilities on the balance sheet. This standard is effective beginning in the first quarter of 2019; early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of this standard to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. As the Company currently is not a party to any leasing arrangement, it does not expect the new standard to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” With respect to assets measured at amortized cost, such as held-to-maturity assets, the update requires presentation of the amortized cost net of a credit loss allowance. The update eliminates the probable initial recognition threshold that was previously required prior to recognizing a credit loss on financial instruments. The credit loss estimate can now reflect an entity’s current estimate of all future expected credit losses as opposed to the previous standard, when an entity only considered past events and current conditions. With respect to available for sale debt securities, the update requires that credit losses be presented as an allowance rather than as a write-down. The update is effective beginning in the first quarter of 2020; early adoption is permitted. As the Company has insignificant receivable balances, the Company does not expect the adoption of this standard to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Recent Accounting Standards announced
In July 2017,August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2017-11, which includes Part I “Accounting2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Certain Financial Instruments with Down Round Features”Fair Value Measurement. The amendments apply to reporting entities that are required to make disclosures about recurring or nonrecurring fair value measurements and Part II “Replacementshould improve the cost, benefit, and effectiveness of the Indefinite Deferraldisclosures. ASU 2018-13 categorized the changes into those disclosures that were removed, those that were modified, and those that were added. The primary disclosures that were removed related to transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 investments, along with the policy for Mandatorily Redeemable Financial Instrumentstiming of Certain Nonpublic Entitiestransfers between levels. In addition, disclosing the valuation processes for Level 3 fair value measurements was removed. The amendments are effective for all organizations for fiscal years, and Certain Mandatorily Redeemable Non-Controlling Interests With a Scope Exception”. The ASU makes limited changes to the Board’s guidance on classifying certain financial instruments as either liabilities or equity. The ASU’s objective is to improve (1) the accounting for instruments with “down-round” provisions and (2) the readability of the guidance in ASC 480 on distinguishing liabilities from equity by replacing the indefinite deferral of certain pending content with scope exceptions. This standard is effectiveinterim periods within those fiscal years, beginning in the first quarter of 2019; earlyafter December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The Company early adopted the standard, retrospectively, for each prior period presented in the financial statements included elsewhere herein.notes that this guidance will impact its disclosures beginning January 1, 2020.
Accounting Standard Update 2018-07, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting
In June 2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update 2018-07, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting (ASU 2018-07). ASU 2018-07 aligns the measurement and classification guidance for share-based payments to nonemployees with the guidance for share-based payments to employees, with certain exceptions.
Consistent with the accounting requirement for employee share-based payment awards, nonemployee share-based payment awards within the scope of Topic 718 will be measured at grant-date fair value of the equity instruments that an entity is obligated to issue when the goods has been delivered or the service has been rendered and any other conditions necessary to earn the right to benefit from the instruments have been satisfied. Equity-classified nonemployee share-based payment awards will be measured at the grant date.
With respect to awards with performance conditions, ASU 2018-07 concludes that, consistent with the accounting for employee share-based payment awards, an entity will consider the probability of satisfying performance conditions when nonemployee share-based payment awards contain such conditions.
ASU 2018-07 also requires that the classification of equity classified nonemployee share-based payment awards will continue to be subject to the requirements of Topic 718 unless the award was modified after the goods has been delivered, the service has been rendered, any other conditions necessary to earn the right to benefit from the instruments have been satisfied, and the nonemployee is no longer providing goods or services. This eliminates the requirement to reassess classification of such awards upon vesting.
In addition, ASU 2018-07 includes certain Non-public Entity-Specific Amendments.
ASU 2018-07 is effective for Public entities in annual periods beginning after 15 December 2018, and interim periods within those years (first quarter of 2019 for the Company). Early adoption is permitted, including in an interim period, but not before an entity adopts the new revenue guidance (which was adopted by the Company in its interim financial statements for 2018).
An entity should only remeasure liability-classified awards that have not been settled by the date of adoption and equity-classified awards for which a measurement date has not been established through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. Upon transition, the entity is required to measure these nonemployee awards at fair value as of the adoption date.Note 2. Convertible Notes.

Note 2. Deferred Revenues.
On January 24, 2018, the Company’s New Subsidiary entered into a binding term sheet (the “Chiron Term Sheet”) with Chiron Refineries Ltd.

The appointment of the Chiron subsidiary as distributor is subject to the payment by the distributor of $250,000 to the Company as an appointment fee, of which $150,000 shall be deemed an advance payment by the distributor made on account of future purchases of our Products.

Issuances of convertibles notes during the nine months of 2018
From January 16, 2018 through January 23, 2018, the Company received from certain third-party accredited investors $100,000 in consideration for the issuance of convertible promissory notes (the “Notes”) as follows: (i) interest at the rate of 1% per annum; (ii) a conversion price of $0.01 per share of common stock; and (iii) repayable through to January 15, 2019, without penalty. The beneficial conversion feature was valued at $100,000, which resulted in a $100,000 discount recorded as a reduction of debt and an increase to additional paid in capital in the Statement of Stockholders’ Deficit. The discount is amortized to finance expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and Comprehensive Loss over the term of the Notes. On January 23, 2018, $3,000 of the Notes was converted at $0.01 per share into 300,000 shares, based upon the Notes conversion price of $0.01 per share of common stock.
Transfer and change of ownership of convertible notes during the nine months ended September 30, 2018
On January 24, 2018, Alpha Anstalt Capital (“Alpha”), Chi Squared Capital (“Chi”), Firstfire Global Opportunities Fund LTC, Goldmed Ltd, IlanMalca and Maz Partners, former holders of the Company’s convertible notes, sold their convertible notes previously issued by the Company in the aggregate amount of $958,611 (the “January 2018 Convertible Notes”) to certain new third-party accredited investors (the “New Investors”) and, in connection therewith, the Company and the New Investors agreed to: (i) amend the conversion price of the January 2018 Convertible Notes from $0.014 to $0.01; (ii) cancel the Class A warrants and Class B warrants issued together with the January 2018 Convertible Notes (see Note 4. Stockholders’ Equity for accounting treatment of the cancelled warrants); (iii) amend the interest rate from 8% to 1% per annum under the January 2018 Convertible Notes; (iv) extend the repayment/maturity date on the January 2018 Convertible Notes to January 23, 2019; and (iv) cancel the options granted to Alpha and Chi in July 2016 (the “Alpha-Chi Options”).
The change in terms of the January 2018 Convertible Notes, including the cancellation of the above-referenced warrants, was accounted for as an extinguishment of the convertible notes and the issuance of new convertible notes. The Company recorded a finance expense in the amount of $21,622,897 in the Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Loss and an increase to Additional Paid-in Capital in the Statement of Stockholders’ Deficit of $22.6 million as a result of the transaction.
The Company further concluded that the post-amended January 2018 Convertible Notes contain a beneficial conversion feature equal to the par value of the January 2018 Convertible Notes ($958,611) and accordingly, recorded a discount on the January 2018 Convertible Notes, to be amortized to finance expense in the Statement of Comprehensive Loss over the term of the January 2018 Convertible Notes.
On January 24, 2018, $73,000 of the January 2018 Convertible Notes was converted, at the adjusted conversion price of $0.01 per share, into 7,300,000 shares of the Company’s common stock and, on March 19, 2018, a further $9,218 of the January 2018 Convertible Notes were converted, at the adjusted conversion price of $0.01 per share, into 921,800 shares of the Company’s common stock.
Non-convertible note
On July 8, 2014, the Company issued a convertible note to Axel Springer Plug & Play Accelerator GmbH in the amount of $29,719. Accrued interest as December 31, 2017 amounted to $3,316. Pursuant to terms of the original agreement, as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the convertible note is no longer convertible.
Note 4.3. Stockholders’ Equity.
Shares of the Company’s common stock confer upon their holders the right to receive notice to participate and vote in general meetings of shareholders of the Company, the right to receive dividends, if declared, and the right to receive a distribution of any surplus of assets upon liquidation of the Company.
Shares of the Company’s preferred stock confer upon their holders the right to receive dividends when paid to holders of common stock of the Company on an as-converted basis, and the right to receive a distribution of any surplus of assets upon liquidation of the Company before any distribution or payment shall be made to the holders of any common stock.
Changes in Shares of Preferred Stock During the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2018

As such, as of September 30, 2018, there were no shares of Series A Preferred Convertible Stock outstanding. Management’s best estimate of the potential value of the Excess Net Assets at the date of the cancellation of the shares of Series A Preferred Convertible Stock was $150,000 and therefore, the Company recorded a charge to Additional Paid-in Capital in the Statement of Changes in Stockholders’ Deficit with a corresponding credit to liabilities. Management’s best estimate of the potential value of the Excess Net Assets as of September 30, 2018, was nil.

Plan of Operations and Recent Developments
The following plan of operation provides information which management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of the Company’s results of operations and financial condition. The discussion should be read along with the Company’s financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.

Recent Developments
The Company filed with the SEC a Current Report on Form 8-K on January 24, 2018, reporting that through Virtual Crypto Israel subsidiary, it entered into a binding term sheet (the “Chiron Term Sheet”) with Chiron Refineries Ltd. (“Chiron”), a public company listed on the Tel-Aviv StockShare Exchange (TASE: CHR). Pursuant to the Chiron Term Sheet (i) Virtual Crypto Israel, shall appoint a wholly-owned subsidiary of Chiron, under the laws of the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus, as the exclusive distributor of Virtual Crypto Israel’s Products in the territory of the Republic of Turkey, including the territory of Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (the “Territory”); and (ii) the distributor shall have the right to appoint sub-distributors within the Territory. The appointment of the Chiron subsidiary as distributor is subject to the payment by the distributor to Virtual Crypto Israel of $250,000 as an appointment fee, of which $150,000 shall be deemed an advance payment by the distributor made on account of future purchases of the Company’s Products.Agreement
The Company further granted such distributor an option, exercisable by the Distributor within 12 months from the date on which the ATM Product, including the related software and hardware, is fully tested and ready for installation and operation, to be appointed as an exclusive distributoroperations of the Products for the Federal Republic of Nigeria. If the option is exercised, the distributor shall pay Virtual Crypto Israel only generated revenues of $100,000 during the year end December 31, 2018 from one customer, Chiron, who has encountered financial difficulties. During 2018, we spent $790,413 in order to develop our systems in an appointment fee not higher than $250,000. To date, $100,000industry that has been paid by such distributorexperienced significant difficulties over the last 18 months. We believe that this has led to a decrease in the anticipated demand for Virtual Crypto Israel.Israel’s products and services. Therefore, on February 7, 2019, we filed a Form 8-K reporting that the Registrant entered into a share exchange agreement (the “Share Exchange Agreement”) with Algomizer Ltd., an Israeli Corporation (“Algomizer”), pursuant to which Algomizer will assign, transfer and deliver its 99.83% holdings in Viewbix Ltd., an Israeli corporation, to us in exchange for shares of restricted common stock of representing 65% of the issued and outstanding share capital of the Company on a fully diluted basis on the closing date, excluding certain warrants to purchase shares of common stock, which will expire in 2020 and with an exercise price representing a valuation equal to $30,000,000 (“Fully Diluted Share Capital”). In addition, upon the earlier of: (a) the launch of a live video product to an American consumer in the U.S by Viewbix Ltd., or (b) the launch of an interactive television product to an American consumer in the U.S., Viewbix Ltd., we will issue Algomizer additional shares of restricted common stock of the Company representing 5% of the Fully Diluted Share Capital.
Furthermore, on the closing date, we will issue Algomizer: (i) warrants to purchase shares of restricted common stock with an exercise price representing a valuation for the Company of $15,000,000 on Fully Diluted Share Capital basis, which will represent 10% of the Fully Diluted Share Capital immediately following the closing, which warrants will be exercisable for a period of ten years, and (ii) warrants to purchase shares of restricted common stock with an exercise price representing a valuation for the Company of $25,000,000 on Fully Diluted Share Capital basis, which will represent 10% of the Fully Diluted Share Capital immediately following the closing, which latter warrants will be exercisable for a period of ten years.
The appointmentclosing of such distributorthe Share Exchange Agreement is subjectconditioned upon us filing an amendment to our certificate of incorporation to change the Company’s name to ViewBix Inc., effecting a reverse split of our shares of common stock at a ratio of 1:15, which we intend to effect whether or not the transactions under the Share Exchange Agreement will consummate, conversion of our outstanding convertible notes into shares of restricted common stock and Algomizer obtaining a tax pre-ruling from the Israeli Tax Authority relating to the paymentShare Exchange Agreement.

Based on the receipt of these funds, we believe we have adequate capital to operate pursuant to our business plan through June 2019.
There are no limitations in the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation on the Company’s ability to borrow funds or raise funds through the issuance of shares of its common stock to affect a business combination, subject to the maximum number of shares of the Company’s common stock authorized under the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation.combination. The Company’s limited resources and lack of having cash-generating business operations may make it difficult to borrow funds or raise capital. The Company’s limitations to borrow funds or raise funds through the issuance of restricted capital stock required to effect or facilitate a business combination may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition and future prospects, including the ability to complete a business combination.
Until such time as the Company can generate substantial revenues, the Company expects to finance its cash needs through a combination of the sale of its equity and/or convertible debt securities, debt financing and strategic alliances and collaborations. The Company does not have any committed external source of funds. To the extent that the Company raises additional capital through the sale of its equity and/or convertible debt securities, the ownership interest of its stockholders will be diluted, and the terms of these securities may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect the rights of our common stockholders. Debt financing, if available, may involve agreements that include covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions, such as incurring additional debt, making capital expenditures or declaring dividends. To the extent that debt financing ultimately proves to be available, any borrowing will subject us to various risks traditionally associated with indebtedness, including the risks of interest rate fluctuations and insufficiency of cash flow to pay principal and interest, including debt of an acquired business. If the Company raises funds through additional collaborations or strategic alliances with third parties, we may have to relinquish valuable rights to our future revenue streams and/or distribution arrangements. No assurance can be given that any future financing will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to the Company. If the Company is unable to raise additional funds through equity and/or debt financings when needed or on attractive terms, the Company may be required to delay, limit, reduce or terminate the operations of some or all of its operations.business segments.
Going Concern:
The Company has only limited capital. Additional financingincurred significant operating losses and negative cash flows from operating activities in relation to its operations, since inception. While the Company raised approximately $1.9 million in the year ended December 31, 2018 to fund the operations of its New Subsidiary, the Company will require additional capital resources in order to support the commercialization of the New Subsidiary’s technology and operations and maintain its research and development activities related to the New Subsidiary’s technology. The Company is necessaryaddressing its liquidity needs by seeking additional funding from public and/or private sources. There are no assurances, however, that the Company will be able to obtain an adequate level of financial resources that are required for the CompanyCompany’s short and long-term requirements, or at all these conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s independent registered public accounting firm issued its unqualified audit opinion forconsolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017 with an explanatory paragraphpossible future effects on going concern.
In viewrecoverability and classification of these matters, realizationassets or the amounts and classification of a major portionliabilities that may result from the outcome of the Company’s assets in the accompanying balance sheet is dependent upon continued operations of the Company. Management believes that actions presently being taken to obtain additional equity financing will provide the opportunity to continue as a going concern.this uncertainty

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of September 30, 2018,March 31, 2019, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer conducted an evaluation (the “Evaluation”) regarding the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based upon the evaluation of these controls and procedures required by Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were ineffectiveeffective as of the end of September 30, 2018March 31, 2019 under the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) because of certain material weaknesses. As of such date, the Company had neither the resources, nor the personnel, to provide an adequate control environment.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting or in other factors identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15 that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2018March 31, 2019 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures
The Company’s management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures or its internal controls will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. The Company’s control systems are designed to provide such reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include, but are not limited to, the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
