Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements as of December 31, 2022
Note 11 - Equity (cont'd)
A. Recapitalization and Subscription Agreements (cont'd)
Each warrant entitles the holder to purchase one fifteenth (1/15th) of one Company Ordinary Share at a price of $172.50 per share, subject to adjustments. The warrants are exercisable at any time commencing 30 days after the completion of the Recapitalization and expire five years after the Closing Date or earlier upon redemption or liquidation. The Company may redeem the outstanding warrants in whole and not in part at a price of $0.01 per warrant at any time after they become exercisable, provided that the last sale price of the Company Ordinary Shares equals or exceeds $270 per share, subject to adjustments, for any 20-trading days within a 30-trading day period ending three business days prior to the date on which the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders. The private warrants have similar terms as the public warrants, except that the private warrants may be exercised on a cashless basis at the holder’s option and the private warrants will not be redeemed by the Company as long as they are held by the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees, but once they are transferred, they have the same rights as the public warrants. The public warrants were classified as a component of permanent equity and the private warrants were classified as a liability measured at fair value pursuant to ASC 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity” and ASC 815 “Derivatives and Hedging”.
B. Ordinary shares
Each ordinary share is entitled to one vote. The holders of ordinary shares are also entitled to receive dividends whenever funds are legally available and when declared by the Board of Directors, subject to the prior rights of holders of all classes of shares outstanding.
C. Redeemable Convertible Preferred Seed, A, B, C and C-1 Shares
Upon the consummation of the recapitalization transaction, all redeemable convertible preferred shares outstanding, totaling 4,273,724 shares, were automatically converted into an equivalent number of ordinary shares on a one-to-one basis and their carrying value of $88,598 thousand was reclassified into shareholders’ equity.
D. Warrants for redeemable convertible preferred shares
On February 16, 2020, the Company signed an investment agreement for a total consideration of $20,000 thousand, issuing a total of 314,521 redeemable convertible preferred C shares together with 78,630 warrants (“Warrants”). Each warrant was exercisable to one redeemable convertible preferred C Share with an exercise price of $0.0001 per warrant. On June 15, 2021, the warrants were converted to 78,630 redeemable convertible preferred C shares.
As the deemed liquidation preference provisions of the Redeemable Convertible Preferred C Shares were considered contingent redemption provisions that are not solely within the Company’s control, the Warrants had been presented as a liability, with a mark-to-market adjustment related to value of the Warrants being charged to the consolidated statements of operations as part of the financial income (expenses), net, every period. For the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company recorded a financial expense of $3,165 thousand and $3,271 thousand relating to the warrant’s fair value increased in the periods, respectively.

D. Warrants for redeemable convertible preferred shares (cont'd)
The exercise price of each Warrant was $0.0001 and therefore, the fair value of each Warrant is approximately equaled to the fair value of the underlined Redeemable Convertible Preferred C Share.
E. Warrants for ordinary shares
In connection with the Recapitalization, on August 13, 2021, the Company issued 13,825,000 warrants to purchase an aggregate of up to 921,667 Company Ordinary Shares, of which 5,200,000 are private warrants. Each warrant is exercisable for one fifteenth (1/15th) of one Ordinary Share. The private warrants include provisions for potential changes to the settlement amounts dependent upon the characteristics of the holder of the warrant. Because the holder of the warrant is not an input into the pricing of a fixed-for-fixed option on equity shares, such a provision precludes the warrants from being indexed to the Company’s share, and thus the warrants were classified as a liability measured at fair value, with changes in fair value each period reported in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company measures the fair value of the private warrants using the Black and Scholes option pricing model. The fair value of the private warrants is considered a Level 3 fair value pursuant to ASC 820 “Fair Value” since valuation technique includes unobservable inputs.
The Black-Scholes assumptions used to value the private warrants are as follows:
| | December 31 | | | December 31 | |
| | 2022 | | | | |
Volatility | | | 89.1 | % | | | 41.0 | % |
Risk-free interest rate | | | 4.1 | % | | | 1.2 | % |
Expected dividends | | | 0.0 | % | | | 0.0 | % |
Expected life (in years) | | | 3.62 | | | | 4.6 | |
For the year ended December 31, 2022, and 2021, the Company recognized a financial income of $1,769 thousand and $8,424 thousand, respectively, to the consolidated statements of operations as part of the financial income (expenses), net, relating to the warrant’s fair value decreased in the period.
