Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
NOTE 1 -DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
| a. | General |
| InspireMD, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), together with its subsidiaries, is a medical device company focusing on the development and commercialization of its proprietary MicroNet™ stent platform technology for the treatment of complex vascular and coronary disease. MicroNet, a micron mesh sleeve, is wrapped over a stent to provide embolic protection in stenting procedures. | |
| The Company’s carotid product (CGuard™ EPS) combines MicroNet and a self-expandable nitinol stent in a single device to treat carotid artery disease. | |
| The Company markets its products through distributors in international markets, mainly in Europe. | |
| b. | Liquidity |
| The Company has an accumulated deficit as of September 30, 2024, as well as a history of net losses and negative operating cash flows in recent years. The Company expects to continue incurring losses and negative cash flows from operations until its product, CGuard™ EPS, reaches commercial profitability. As a result of these expected losses and negative cash flows from operations, along with the Company’s current cash position, the Company does not have sufficient resources to fund operations for at least the next 12 months. Therefore, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern and do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. | |
| Management’s plans include the continued commercialization of the Company’s product and raising capital through the sale of additional equity securities, debt or capital inflows from strategic partnerships and exercise of warrants. There are no assurances however, that the Company will be successful in obtaining the level of financing needed for its operations. If the Company is unsuccessful in commercializing its products and raising capital, it may need to reduce activities, curtail or cease operations. | |
| c. | Risks Related to the Company’s Operations in Israel |
| In October 2023, Israel was attacked by a terrorist organization and entered a state of war. In addition, since the commencement of these events, there have been continued hostilities along Israel’s northern border with Lebanon (with the Hezbollah terror organization), Israel’s southern border with the Gaza Strip (with the Hamas terrorist organization) and on other fronts from various extremist groups in region, such as the Houthis in Yemen and various rebel militia groups in Syria and Iraq. In addition, Iran recently launched direct attacks on Israel involving hundreds of drones and missiles and has threatened to continue to attack Israel and is widely believed to be developing nuclear weapons. Iran is also believed to have a strong influence among extremist groups in the region, such as Hamas in Gaza, Hezbollah in Lebanon, the Houthi movement in Yemen and various rebel militia groups in Syria and Iraq. As of the date of these consolidated financial statements, the war in Israel is ongoing and continues to evolve. The Company operations, including its production facility, are located in Israel. Currently, such activities in Israel remain largely unaffected. | |
| During the nine and three months ended September 30, 2024, the impact of this war on the Company’s results of operations and financial condition was immaterial, but such impact may increase, which could be material, as a result of the continuation, escalation or expansion of such war. |
NOTE 2 -BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023. In the opinion of the company, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair statement of the results of the interim periods reported herein have been included (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments). These condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto are unaudited and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023, as found in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 5, 2024. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, are not necessarily indicative of results that could be expected for the entire fiscal year.
NOTE 3 -RECENTLY ADOPTED AND ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Recently adopted accounting pronouncements
In August 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2020-06 “Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815 – 40).” This guidance simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity, including convertible instruments and contracts on an entity’s own equity. This ASU is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted the provisions of this update as of January 1, 2024 with no material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
Recently issued accounting pronouncement, not yet adopted
| 1) | In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07 “Segment Reporting: Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures”. This guidance expands public entities segment disclosures primarily by requiring disclosure of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss, an amount and description of its composition for other segment items, and interim disclosures of a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets. Public entities with a single reportable segment are required to provide the new disclosures and all the disclosures required under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 280. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The amendments are required to be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in an entity’s financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance to determine the impact it may have on its consolidated financial statements related disclosures. |
| 2) | In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09 “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures”. This guidance is intended to enhance the transparency and decision-usefulness of income tax disclosures. The amendments in ASU 2023-09 address investor requests for enhanced income tax information primarily through changes to disclosure regarding rate reconciliation and income taxes paid both in the U.S. and in foreign jurisdictions. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 on a prospective basis, with the option to apply the standard retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance to determine the impact it may have on its consolidated financial statements disclosures. |
NOTE 4 –FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Fair value is based on the price that would be received from the sale of an asset or that would be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In order to increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements, the guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value into three broad levels, which are described as follows:
Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs.
Level 2: Observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted on active markets but corroborated by market data.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs are used when little or no market data is available. The fair value hierarchy gives the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs.
The Company’s financial assets subject to fair value measurements on a recurring basis and the level of inputs used in such measurements were as follows:
| Total · Level 1 · Level 2 · Level 3 | |||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Assets: | |||||||
| Cash equivalents- | |||||||
| Money market funds | $2,677 | $2,677 | $ | - | $ | - | |
| Marketable securities- | |||||||

| Marketable securities- | |||||||
| U.S. government bonds | $29,383 | $ | - | $29,383 | $ | - | |
The Company’s debt securities are classified within Level 2 because it uses quoted market prices or alternative pricing sources and models utilizing market observable inputs to determine their fair value.
The cost of marketable securities as of September 30, 2024, is $23,919 thousand.
The cost of Marketable securities as of December 31, 2023 is $28,727 thousand.

NOTE 8 -NET LOSS PER SHARE:
Basic and diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock, pre-funded warrants and fully vested restricted stock units outstanding during the period. The calculation of diluted net loss per share excludes the effect of potential dilution of share options, warrants, and unvested restricted stocks, unvested restricted stock units and Series C preferred stock as the effect is anti-dilutive.
For the purpose of calculating basic net loss per share, the additional shares of common stock that are issuable upon exercise of the pre-funded warrants have been included since the shares are issuable for a negligible consideration, as determined by the Company according to ASC 260-10-45-13, and have no vesting or other contingencies associated with them. For the nine and three-month periods ended September 30, 2024, we had weighted average pre-funded warrants of 19,016,286 and 26,199,497, respectively, which were used in the computations of net loss per share for the nine and three-month periods.
The total number of shares of common stock related to outstanding options, warrants, unvested restricted stock, unvested restricted stock units and Series C Preferred Stock excluded from the calculations of diluted loss per share were 48,619,222 and 59,753,458 as of September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. This amount includes 3,979,486 and 3,073,821 of unvested restricted stock included in the number of issued and outstanding shares as of September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
