NOTE 1: ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Organization. NovoCure Limited (including its consolidated subsidiaries, the "Company") was incorporated in the Bailiwick of Jersey and is principally engaged in the development, manufacture and commercialization of Tumor Treating Fields ("TTFields") devices, including Optune and Optune Lua (collectively, our "Products"), for the treatment of solid tumor cancers. The Company markets Optune and Optune Lua in multiple countries around the globe with the majority of revenues coming from the use of Optune in the U.S., Germany and Japan. The Company also has a License and Collaboration Agreement (the "Zai Agreement") with Zai Lab (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. ("Zai") to market Optune in China, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan ("Greater China").

Financial statement preparation. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are normal and recurring in nature, necessary for fair financial statement presentation for the periods presented. The preparation of these unaudited consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in these unaudited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. These unaudited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 (the "2023 10-K") filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 22, 2024.

The significant accounting policies applied in the audited annual consolidated financial statements of the Company as disclosed in the 2023 10-K are applied consistently in these unaudited interim consolidated financial statements.

Concentration Risks. The Company's cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments and trade receivables are potentially subject to a concentration of risk. Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments are invested at top tier financial institutions globally and the total value invested at any one institution is limited pursuant to the Company's investment policy. These investments may be in excess of insured limitations or not insured in certain jurisdictions. Generally, these investments may be redeemed upon demand according to the terms of the securities.

The Company's trade receivables are due from numerous governments and federal and state agencies that are paid from their respective budgets, and from hundreds of health insurance companies. The Company does not believe that there are significant default risks associated with these governments, agencies and health insurance companies based upon the Company's historical experience.

The Company has no off-balance sheet concentrations of credit risk such as foreign exchange contracts, option contracts or other foreign hedging arrangements.

Recently announced accounting pronouncements.

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which requires public entities to disclose information about their reportable segments’ significant expenses and other segment items on an interim and annual basis. Public entities with a single reportable segment are required to apply the disclosure requirements in ASU 2023-07, as well as all existing segment disclosures and reconciliation requirements in ASC 280 on an interim and annual basis. ASU 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2023-07.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires public entities, on an annual basis, to provide disclosure of specific categories in the rate reconciliation, as well as disclosure of income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2023-09.

NOTE 2: CASH, CASH EQUIVALENTS AND SHORT-TERM INVESTMENTS

Cash equivalents include items almost as liquid as cash, with maturity periods of three months or less when purchased, and short-term investments include items with maturity dates between three months and one year when purchased. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments were composed of:

(1) Changes in fair value of held-to-maturity ("HTM") securities are presented for disclosure purposes as required by ASC 320 "Investments — Debt Securities" and are recorded as finance expenses only if the unrealized loss is identified as a credit loss.

(2) Pursuant to a bank guaranty agreement, $16,189 of short-term investments are pledged. See Note 4.

In accordance with ASC 820, "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures," the Company measures its money market funds at fair value. The fair value of the money market funds and HTM securities, which is presented for disclosure purposes, is classified within Level 1 or Level 2. This is because these assets are valued using quoted market prices or alternative pricing sources and models utilizing market observable inputs.

As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, all investments mature in one year or less.

Unrealized losses from debt securities are primarily attributable to changes in interest rates. The Company does not believe any remaining unrealized losses represent impairments based on the evaluation of available evidence.

NOTE 3: INVENTORIES

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The weighted average methodology is applied to determine cost. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company’s inventories were composed of:

NOTE 4: COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

Operating Leases. The facilities of the Company are leased under various operating lease agreements for periods, including options for extensions, ending no later than 2044. The Company also leases motor vehicles under various operating leases, which expire on various dates, the latest of which is in 2027.

Pledged deposits and bank guarantees. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company pledged bank deposits of $2,798 and $2,848, respectively, to cover bank guarantees in respect of its leases of operating facilities and obtained bank guarantees for the fulfillment of the Company’s lease and other contractual commitments of $3,157 and $3,216, respectively. In addition, €15,000 ($16,189) of the Company's short term investments are pledged to a bank as guarantee for the Company's due execution of cash concentration agreements.

Legal Proceedings. In June 2023, a putative class action lawsuit was filed against the Company, its Executive Chairman and its Chief Executive Officer. The complaint, later amended to add our Chief Financial Officer as a defendant, which purports to be brought on behalf of a class of persons and/or entities who purchased or otherwise acquired ordinary shares of the Company from January 5, 2023 through June 5, 2023, alleges material misstatements and/or omissions in the Company’s public statements with respect to the results from its phase 3 LUNAR clinical trial. The Company believes that the action is without merit and plans to defend the lawsuit vigorously. As of March 31, 2024, the Company has not accrued any amounts in respect of this claim, as it believes liability is not probable and the amount of any potential liability cannot be reasonably estimated.

NOTE 5: CONVERTIBLE NOTE

On November 5, 2020, the Company issued $575,000 aggregate principal amount of 0% Convertible Senior Notes due 2025 (the “Notes”).

The Notes mature on November 1, 2025, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted as set forth in the Notes. As of March 31, 2024, the conditions allowing holders of the Notes to convert were not met. The Notes are therefore not convertible as of March 31, 2024 and are classified as long-term liability.

The net carrying amount of the liability of the Notes as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 are as follows:

(1) An effective interest rate determines the fair value of the Notes, therefore they are categorized as Level 3 in accordance with ASC 820. The estimated fair value of the net carrying amount of liability component of the Notes as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 were $525,865 and $515,962, respectively.

The net carrying amount of the liability is represented by the principal amount of the Notes, less total issuance costs plus any amortization of issuance costs. The total issuance costs upon issuance of the Notes were $16,561 and are amortized to interest expense using the effective interest rate method over the contractual term of the Notes. Interest expense is recognized at an annual effective interest rate of 0.59% over the contractual term of the Notes.

Finance expense related to the Notes was as follows:

NOTE 7: SHARE OPTION PLANS AND ESPP

In September 2015, the Company adopted the 2015 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2015 Plan”). Under the 2015 Plan, the Company can issue various types of equity compensation awards such as share options, restricted shares, performance shares, restricted share units (“RSUs”), performance-based share units (“PSUs”), long-term cash awards and other share-based awards.

Options granted under the 2015 Plan generally have atwo-year orfour-year vesting period and expireten years after the date of grant. Options granted under the 2015 Plan that are canceled or forfeited before expiration become available for future grants. RSUs granted under the 2015 Plan generally vest over athree-year period. PSUs granted under the 2015 Plan generally vest between athree- andsix-year period as performance targets are attained. RSUs and PSUs granted under the 2015 Plan that are canceled before expiration become available for future grants. As of March 31, 2024,11,027,556 ordinary shares were available for grant under the 2015 Plan.

In September 2015, the Company adopted an employee share purchase plan (“ESPP”) to encourage and enable eligible employees to acquire ownership of the Company’s ordinary shares purchased through accumulated payroll deductions on an after-tax basis. In the United States, the ESPP is intended to be an “employee stock purchase plan” within the meaning of Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code and the provisions of the ESPP are construed in a manner consistent with the requirements of such section. As of March 31, 2024,5,735,791 ordinary shares were available to be purchased by eligible employees under the ESPP.

The fair value of share-based awards was estimated using the Black-Scholes model for all equity grants. For market condition awards, the Company also applied the Monte-Carlo simulation model. The Company assessed fair value using the following underlying assumptions:

The total non-cash share-based compensation expense related to all of the Company’s equity-based awards recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, and the year ended December 31, 2023 was:

NOTE 8: Basic and diluted net income (loss) per ordinary share

Basic net income (loss) per share is computed based on the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during each period. Diluted net income per share is computed based on the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period, plus potential dilutive shares (deriving from options, RSUs, PSUs, convertible notes and the ESPP) considered outstanding during the period, in accordance with ASC 260-10 "Earnings Per Share", as determined under the treasury stock or if-converted method, as applicable.

The following table sets forth the computation of the Company’s basic and diluted net income (loss) per ordinary share:

Restructuring

In November 2023, the Company announced a series of actions to strengthen and optimize its business operations to support near-term growth drivers and long-term value creation. The plan included a reduction in headcount of approximately 200 employees or 13% of the Company's then current workforce. The Company incurred restructuring costs (including severance pay, garden leave payments, etc.) in the amount of $2,031 and $6,231 for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and the year ended December 31, 2023, respectively, as follows:

These restructuring costs were offset by accrual reversals for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and the year ended December 31, 2023 in the amount of $369 and $3,041, respectively, which relate to the terminated employees' exits from the Company’s cash incentive plans. These restructuring costs were further offset by forfeited equity-based compensation expense reversals for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and the year ended December 31, 2023 in the amount of $1,661 and $9,313, respectively, which relate to the terminated employees' exits from the Company’s equity incentive plan.
