NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1:- GENERAL
| |
a. | ReWalk Robotics Ltd. (“RRL”, and together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Israel on June 20, 2001 and commenced operations on the same date. |
| |
b. | RRL has two wholly-owned subsidiaries: (i) ReWalk Robotics Inc., incorporated under the laws of Delaware on February 15, 2012, and (ii) Argo Medical Technologies GmbH, incorporated under the laws of Germany on January 14, 2013. |
| |
c. | The Company depends on one contract manufacturer. Reliance on this vendor makes the Company vulnerable to possible capacity constraints and reduced control over component availability, delivery schedules, manufacturing yields and costs. This vendor accounted for 20% and 24% of the Company's total trade payables as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. |
| |
d. | On May 16, 2016 the Company has entered into a Research Collaboration Agreement and an Exclusive License Agreement with the President and Fellows of Harvard College ("Harvard"). See also Note 7 below for more information about these agreements with Harvard. |
| |
e. | During May and June 2016, the Company issued and sold 100,075 ordinary shares at an average price of $7.69 per share under its ATM Offering Program. The gross proceeds to the Company were $770 thousand, and the net proceeds after deducting commissions, fees and offering expenses in the amount of $333 thousand were $437 thousand. The Company can raise up to $25 million under its ATM Offering Program. See Note 8e below for more information about the Company’s ATM Offering Program. |
| |
f. | The Company has incurred losses in the amount of $16 million during the six month period ended June 30, 2016. The Company has an accumulated deficit in the total amount of $90 million as of June 30, 2016 and negative cash flow from operating activities is in the amount of $13.5 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2016. As of June 30, 2016, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $15.7 million. The Company expects to fund future capital requirements from its cash and cash equivalents, cash flow generated from its operations, borrowings under the Loan Agreement with Kreos Capital V (Expert Fund) Limited, issuances under the Company's ATM Offering Program or, other future issuances of equity and debt securities, or through a combination of the foregoing to meet the Company's anticipated cash requirements for the next 12 months. See Note 6 below for information about the Company’s Loan Agreement. |

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
NOTE 2:- UNAUDITED INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the accompanying financial statements include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's (i)consolidated financial position as of June 30, 2016, (ii) consolidated results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and (iii) consolidated cash flows for the six month ended June 30, 2016. The results for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2016, as applicable, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2016.
NOTE 3:- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
| |
a. | The significant accounting policies applied in the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company as disclosed in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 filed with the SEC on February 29, 2016, as amended on Form 10-K/A filed with the SEC on May 5, 2016 (the “2015 Form 10-K”), are applied consistently in these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements. |
| |
b. | New Accounting Pronouncements: |
| |
i. | In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2016-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718). The new guidance simplifies several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. The amendments in this standard are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the pending adoption of this ASU on its condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. |
| |
ii. | In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). Under the new guidance, a lessee will be required to recognize assets and liabilities for all leases with lease terms of more than 12 months. Consistent with current generally accepted accounting principles, the recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee primarily will depend on its classification as a finance or operating lease. This ASU requires additional disclosures. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within those fiscal years. The ASU requires adoption based upon a modified retrospective transition approach. Early adoption is permitted. The Company has not yet selected a transition method or determined whether it will elect early adoption and is currently evaluating the impact of the pending adoption of this ASU on its condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. |
| |
iii. | In 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASU 2014-09”), which provides a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and will supersede most current revenue recognition guidance. In 2016, the FASB issued four amendments to ASU 2014-09. The standard is effective for public companies for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted as of one year prior to the current effective date. The guidance permits two implementation approaches, one requiring retrospective application of the new standard with restatement of prior years and one requiring prospective application of the new standard with disclosure of results under old standards. The Company has not yet selected an implementation approach or determined whether it will elect early adoption and is currently evaluating the impact of the pending adoption of this ASU on its condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. |

c. | Concentrations of Credit Risks: |
Concentration of credit risk with respect to trade receivable is primarily limited to a customer to which the Company makes substantial sales. One customer represented 10% and 21% of the Company's trade receivable, net balance as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.

NOTE 5:- COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
The Company has contractual obligations to purchase goods from its contract manufacturer- Sanmina Corporation, as further discussed in "Part I Item 1. Business" and "Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors" of the 2015 Form 10-K. Purchase obligations do not include contracts that may be canceled without penalty. As of June 30, 2016, non-cancelable outstanding obligations amounted to approximately $2.7 million.
As described in Note 6 below, in connection with the loan agreement, dated as of December 30, 2015, between Kreos Capital V (Expert) Fund Limited (Kreos) and the Company (the Loan Agreement), the Company granted Kreos a first priority security interest over all of its assets, including intellectual property and equity interests in its subsidiaries, subject to certain permitted security interests.
The Company's other long-term assets subject to liens include a bank deposit in the amount of $746 thousand, which was pledged as security in respect of guaranties made in favor of a third party on April 29, 2015 and on January 6, 2016. Such deposit cannot be pledged to others or withdrawn without the consent of such third party.
NOTE 6:- LOAN AND WARRANT TO PURCHASE ORDINARY SHARES
On December 30, 2015, the Company entered into the Loan Agreement pursuant to which Kreos extended a line of credit to the Company in the amount of $20.0 million (the “Loan”). Pursuant to the Loan Agreement, the Company granted Kreos a first priority security interest over all of its assets, including intellectual property and equity interests in its subsidiaries, subject to certain permitted security interests.
The Loan has a maturity of 36 months and bears annual interest of 10.75%, which is to be paid monthly. The principal of the Loan is to be paid in 24 monthly payments, beginning in January 2017, except for the last loan payment, which was paid in advance on the Draw Down Date (as defined below). The repayment period will be extended to 36 months if the Company raises $20.0 million or more in connection with the issuance of shares of its capital stock (including debt securities convertible into shares of the Company’s capital stock) prior to the expiration of the initial 24-month period. In the event that prior to December 31, 2016, the Company raises $10.0 million or more in connection with the issuance of shares of the Company’s capital stock (including debt securities convertible into shares of the Company’s capital stock), the Company will be able to draw down up to an additional $8.0 million in separate tranches until December 31, 2016, with a minimum required drawdown of $2.0 million each.
REWALK ROBOTICS LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
On January 4, 2016 (the “Draw Down Date”), the Company drew down $12.0 million, net of $415 thousand in loan transaction fees and $660 thousand as advance payment. Additional loan transaction fees in the amount of $26 thousand were paid after the Draw Down Date. Out of the $441 thousand in total loan transaction fees, $140 thousand are deferred, and presented within “Other long term assets”, as they are allocated to the remaining $8.0 million available for drawdown by the Company under the Loan Agreement in separate tranches until December 31, 2016, (assuming proceeds of at least $10.0 million prior to December 31, 2016 in connection with the issuance of shares of the Company's capital stock).
Repayment of the Loan and payment of all other amounts owed to Kreos are to be made in U.S. dollars.
The Company recorded interest expense in the amount of $967 thousand during the six months ended June 30, 2016.
In connection with the Loan Agreement, on December 30, 2015, the Company also granted Kreos a warrant to purchase 119,295 ordinary shares of the Company at an exercise price of $9.64 per share (the “Warrant”). The Warrant is exercisable, in whole or in part, at any time prior to the earliest of (i) December 30, 2025 or (ii) immediately prior to the consummation of a merger, consolidation, or reorganization of the Company with or into, or the sale or license of all or substantially all the assets or shares of the Company to, any other entity or person, other than a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, excluding any transaction in which shareholders of the Company prior to the transaction will hold more than 50% of the voting and economic rights of the surviving entity after the transaction.
On December 30, 2015, the Company calculated the value of its freestanding Warrant to purchase its ordinary shares in the amount of $1 million (net of $42 thousand issuance expenses), by using the relative fair value method and utilizing an option pricing method. The Company has recorded the value of the Warrant, together with the Loan's issuance costs, as debt discount which is being accreted as interest expense using the effective-interest method over the remaining term of the Loan.
The following assumptions were used to estimate the value of the Warrant on December 30, 2015:
|

Expected volatility | 60 | % |
Risk-free rate | 2.52 | % |

NOTE 7:- RESEARCH COLLABORATION AGREEMENT AND LICENSE AGREEMENT
On May 16, 2016, the Company entered into a Research Collaboration Agreement (“Collaboration Agreement”) and an Exclusive License Agreement (“License Agreement”) with Harvard.
Under the Collaboration Agreement, Harvard and the Company have agreed to collaborate on research regarding the development of lightweight “soft suit” exoskeleton system technologies for lower limb disabilities, which are intended to treat stroke, multiple sclerosis, mobility limitations for the elderly and other medical applications. The Company has committed to pay in quarterly installments for the funding of this research, subject to a minimum funding commitment under applicable circumstances. The Collaboration Agreement will expire on May 16, 2021.
Under the License Agreement, Harvard has granted the Company an exclusive, worldwide royalty-bearing license under certain patents of Harvard relating to lightweight “soft suit” exoskeleton system technologies for lower limb disabilities, a royalty-free license under certain related know-how and the option to obtain a license under certain inventions conceived under the joint research collaboration.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
The License Agreement requires the Company to pay Harvard an upfront fee, reimbursements for expenses that Harvard incurred in connection with the licensed patents, royalties on net sales and several milestone payments contingent upon the achievement of certain product development and commercialization milestones. The License Agreement will continue in full force and effect until the expiration of the last-to-expire valid claim of the licensed patents. As of June 30, 2016, the Company did not achieve any of these milestones, and given the early stage of the License Agreement, the Company cannot anticipate the likelihood that the milestones will be achieved. Moreover, since such royalties are dependent on future product sales which are neither determinable nor reasonably estimable, these royalty payments are not recorded on our consolidated condensed balance sheet as of June 30, 2016.
The Company's total payment obligation under the Collaboration Agreement and of the License Agreement is $6.3 million, some of it is subject to a minimum funding commitment under applicable circumstances as indicated above. see “Part I. Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations-Obligations and Commercial Commitments”.
The Company has recorded cost in the amount of $1.1 million, which is part of the total payment obligation indicated above, as research and development expenses related to the License Agreement and to the Collaboration Agreement for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016.
For further discussion of the terms of the Collaboration Agreement and the License Agreement, see “Part I. Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations-Overview-Collaboration Agreement and License Agreement with Harvard”.
NOTE 8:- SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY
As of June 30, 2016, and December 31, 2015, the Company had reserved 393,903 and 420,469 ordinary shares, respectively, for issuance to the Company’s and its affiliates’ respective employees, directors, officers and consultants under the Company's 2014 Incentive Compensation Plan (the “2014 Plan”).
Options to purchase ordinary shares generally vest over four years, with certain options granted to non-employee directors during the six months ended June 30, 2016, vesting over one year. Any option that is forfeited or canceled before expiration becomes available for future grants under the 2014 Plan.
The fair value for options granted during the six months ended June 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015 was estimated at the date of the grant using a Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model with the following assumptions:
|
| | | |
| Six Months Ended June 30, |
| 2016 | | 2015 |
Expected volatility | 53%-60% | | 60% |
Risk-free rate | 1.28%-1.60% | | 1.60%-1.77% |
Dividend yield | —% | | —% |
Expected term (in years) | 5.31-6.11 | | 6.11 |
Share price | $8.48 - $11.88 | | $19.61- $20.97 |
The fair value of restricted stock units (RSUs) granted is determined based on the price of the Company's ordinary shares on the date of grant.
A summary of employee options to purchase ordinary shares and RSUs during the six months ended June 30, 2016 is as follows:

On May 28, 2016, the Company entered into an agreement (the “Consulting Agreement”) with a separate non-employee consultant (the “Consultant”), under which the Consultant agreed to assist the Company in commercially promoting and expanding insurance coverage of the Company’s ReWalk devices. Compensation under the Consulting Agreement is due and payable only if the Consultant is successful, and will consist of agreed amounts in cash or ordinary shares and a percentage of certain sales resulting from the Consultant’s efforts. Additionally, the Company has agreed to pay the Consultant 10 percent of the increase in the Company’s market capitalization following the dates when coverage becomes active under national insurance policies that the Consultant secures for the Company. The increase in the Company’s market capitalization will be determined based on the increase between the average closing price over the ten days before disclosure of a relevant coverage decision and the average closing price over the ten days commencing 80 days after such disclosure. These variable payments, which will be made only for the first five national insurance policies the Consultant attains for the Company, (1) may be made in cash or stock at the Company’s choice and (2) may not exceed (i) $6 million for the date that the first national coverage policy takes effect, (ii) $5 million for the date that the second national coverage policy takes effect and (iii) $2 million for each of the dates that the next three national coverage policies take effect. The Company may need to seek shareholder approval pursuant to the rules of The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC should the Company elect to make such payments in stock. The Consulting Agreement has a term of 12 months, which will extend to 18 months if the Consultant secures a national coverage policy with certain insurers in the first 12 months and to 24 months if the Consultant secures at least two more national coverage policies within the first 18 months. Due to the fact that the compensation under the Consulting Agreement is based on achievement, the Company had not made any cash payments or issued any ordinary shares to the Consultant under the Consulting Agreement as of June 30, 2016.

e. At-the-market offering program:
On May 10, 2016, the Company entered into an equity distribution agreement (the “Equity Distribution Agreement”) with Piper Jaffray, pursuant to which it may offer and sell, from time to time, ordinary shares having an aggregate offering price of up to $25 million, through Piper Jaffray acting as its agent. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Equity Distribution Agreement, Piper Jaffray will use its commercially reasonable efforts to sell on the Company’s behalf all of the ordinary shares requested to be sold by the Company, consistent with its normal trading and sales practices. Piper Jaffray may also act as principal in the sale of ordinary shares under the Equity Distribution Agreement. Sales may be made under the Company's registration statement on Form S-3, which was declared effective on May 9, 2016 (the “Form S-3”), in what may be deemed “at-the-market” equity offerings as defined in Rule 415 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “ATM Offering Program”). Sales may be made directly on or through the NASDAQ Global Market, the existing trading market for the Company's ordinary shares, to or through a market maker other than on an exchange or otherwise, in negotiated transactions at market prices prevailing at the time of sale or at prices related to such prevailing market prices, and/or any other method permitted by law, including in privately negotiated transactions. Piper Jaffray is entitled to compensation at a fixed commission rate of 3.0% of the gross sales price per share sold through it as agent under the Equity Distribution Agreement. Where Piper Jaffray acts as principal in the sale of ordinary shares under the Equity Distribution Agreement, such rate of compensation will not apply, but

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
in no event will the total compensation of Piper Jaffray, when combined with the reimbursement of Piper Jaffray for the out-of-pocket fees and disbursements of its legal counsel, exceed 8.0% of the gross proceeds received from the sale of the ordinary shares. The Company is not required to sell any of its ordinary shares at any time.
As of August 2, 2016, the Company had sold 100,075 ordinary shares under the ATM Offering Program for net proceeds to the Company of $437 thousand (after commissions, fees and expenses). Additionally, as of that date, the Company had paid Piper Jaffray compensation of $23 thousand and had incurred total expenses of approximately $333 thousand in connection with the ATM Offering Program.

Overview
We are an innovative medical device company that is designing, developing and commercializing exoskeletons that allow wheelchair-bound individuals with mobility impairments or other medical conditions the ability to stand and walk once again. We have developed and are continuing to commercialize ReWalk, an exoskeleton that uses our patented tilt-sensor technology and an on-board computer and motion sensors to drive motorized legs that power movement. Currently, we derive revenue from selling our ReWalk Personal and ReWalk Rehabilitation exoskeleton devices, which allow individuals with paraplegia the ability to stand and walk once again. ReWalk Personal is designed for everyday use by individuals at home and in their communities, and is custom-fitted for each user. ReWalk Rehabilitation is designed for the clinical rehabilitation environment where it provides valuable exercise and therapy. It also enables individuals to evaluate their capacity for using ReWalk Personal in the future. Since our ReWalk Personal device obtained FDA clearance in June 2014, we have continued to increase our focus on selling the device through third-party payors in the United States and Germany and through distributors in other parts of the world.
We expect to generate revenues from a combination of third-party payors, self-payors and institutions. While a broad uniform policy of coverage and reimbursement by third-party payors currently does not exist for electronic exoskeleton technologies such as ReWalk, we are pursuing various paths of reimbursement and support fundraising efforts by institutions and clinics. In December 2015, the Veterans' Administration (the “VA”) issued a national policy for the evaluation, training and procurement of ReWalk Personal exoskeleton systems for all qualifying veterans across the United States. The VA policy, which is exclusive to ReWalk exoskeleton systems, is the first national coverage policy in the United States for qualifying individuals who have suffered spinal cord injuries. The first comprehensive reimbursement coverage policy for ReWalk Personal, provided by a commercial payer, was issued in the first quarter of 2016. Additionally, to date several private insurers in the United States have provided reimbursement for ReWalk in certain cases.
We have incurred net losses and negative cash flows from operations since inception and anticipate this to continue in the near term as we continue to focus our efforts on expanding reimbursement and developing the next generation of ReWalk devices.
Second Quarter 2016 Business Highlights
| |
• | We Placed 24 ReWalk personal devices during the quarter, of which a record 18 were covered by insurance reimbursement. |
| |
• | Five new VA spinal cord injury centers initiated training programs, for a total of seven VA training centers. Six new ReWalk Personal devices were placed with patients as part of the VA national coverage policy. |
| |
• | We entered into the Equity Distribution Agreement with Piper Jaffray establishing our ATM Offering Program. For more information, see Note 8e to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements set forth in “Part I, Item 1. Financial Statements” above and “Liquidity and Capital Resources” below. |
| |
• | We announced our collaboration with Harvard University’s Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering for the licensing of certain intellectual property and the development of concepts and designs of lightweight exoskeleton system technologies for lower limb disabilities. For more information, see “Collaboration Agreement and License Agreement” with Harvard below. |
Collaboration Agreement and License Agreement with Harvard
As previously disclosed, on May 16, 2016, we entered into the Collaboration Agreement and the License Agreement with Harvard. Under the Collaboration Agreement, Harvard and we agreed to collaborate on research regarding the development of lightweight soft suit exoskeleton system technologies for lower limb disabilities, which are intended to treat stroke, Multiple Sclerosis, mobility limitations for the elderly and other medical applications. Under the Collaboration Agreement, we must pay Harvard quarterly installment payments to help fund the research. Subject to the terms of the Collaboration Agreement, Harvard and we are required to report our respective research results and findings to each other on a regular basis. The Collaboration Agreement governs ownership of the research results and inventions generated in performance of the research collaboration, and provides us the option to negotiate with Harvard for a license to certain new inventions of Harvard conceived in performance of the collaboration.
The Collaboration Agreement will expire on May 16, 2021. Subject to payment of a minimum funding commitment under applicable circumstances, we may terminate the agreement if there is a loss of Harvard’s principal investigator or if we do not believe that we have or can secure sufficient funding to proceed. The Collaboration Agreement may also be terminated by either Harvard or us due to a material uncured breach by the other party or upon termination of the License Agreement.
Under the License Agreement, we are granted an exclusive, worldwide royalty-bearing license under certain patents of Harvard relating to lightweight “soft suit” exoskeleton system technologies for lower limb disabilities, a royalty-free license under certain related know-how and the option to obtain a license under certain inventions conceived under our joint research collaboration. Harvard retains the right to practice the patents for research, educational and scholarly purposes. We are required to use commercially reasonable efforts to develop products under the license in accordance with an agreed-upon development plan and to introduce and market such products commercially. In addition to an upfront fee and royalties on net sales, we are obligated to pay Harvard certain milestone payments upon the achievement of certain product development and commercialization milestones. We also agreed to reimburse Harvard for expenses incurred in connection with the filing, prosecution and maintenance of the licensed patents.
The License Agreement will continue in full force and effect until the expiration of the last-to-expire valid claim of the licensed patents. We may terminate the Agreement for any reason upon 60 days’ prior written notice, while Harvard may terminate the Agreement if we do not obtain requisite insurance, becomes insolvent or fail to meet certain development milestones. The License Agreement may also be terminated by Harvard or us due to the other party’s material uncured breach.
The Collaboration Agreement and License Agreement contain, as applicable, customary representations and warranties and customary enforcement, indemnification and insurance provisions. For further discussion of the Collaboration Agreement and License Agreement, see Note 7 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements set forth in “Part I, Item 1. Financial Statements” of this quarterly report.

Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2016 Compared to Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2015
Revenues
Our revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 were as follows:
|
| | | | | | | |
| Three Months Ended June 30, | | Six Months Ended June 30, |
| 2016 | | 2015 | | 2016 | | 2015 |
| (in thousands, except unit amounts) | | (in thousands, except unit amounts) |
Personal units placed | 24 | | 7 | | 55 | | 18 |
Rehabilitation units placed | 1 | | 5 | | 2 | | 7 |
Total units placed | 25 | | 12 | | 57 | | 25 |
Personal unit revenues | $708 | | $405 | | $2,679 | | $1,015 |
Rehabilitation unit revenues | $109 | | $205 | | $199 | | $230 |
Revenues | $817 | | $610 | | $2,878 | | $1,245 |
Revenues increased $207 thousand, or 34%, for the three months ended June 30, 2016 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2015. The increase was primarily a result of an increase in number of personal units placed and higher revenues from insurance reimbursement. Additionally, the number of units placed has increased at a rate faster than our revenues have increased due to the fact that a number of our customers (including the VA and third-party insurance payers) have chosen to rent our devices for an initial period of time prior to purchasing it. Therefore, during the three months ended June 30, 2016, we placed 16 rental units compared to two rental units during the three months ended June 30, 2015.
Revenues increased $1.6 million, or 131%, for the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2015. The increase was primarily a result of an increase in ReWalk Personal device sales of $1.7 million, or 164%, which included sales of 20 ReWalk Personal devices to the VA for use in the VA’s clinical study during the three months ended March 31, 2016 and increased rentals of our ReWalk Personal devices prior to purchasing it. We placed a total of 55 personal units during the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to 18 personal units during the six months ended June 30, 2016. In the future we expect our growth to be driven by sales of our ReWalk Personal device to third-party payors.
Gross Profit
Our gross profit for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 were as follows (in thousands):
|
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Three Months Ended June 30, | | Six Months Ended June 30, 2016 |
| 2016 | | 2015 | | 2016 | | 2015 |
Gross profit | $ | 85 |
| | $ | 60 |
| | $ | 578 |
| | $ | 93 |
|
Gross profit remained flat as a percentage of revenue at 10% for the three months ended June 30, 2016, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2015. The increase in gross profit dollars is primarily driven by the increased number of rental units, as during the three months ended June 30, 2016, as described in “Revenues” above.
Gross profit was 20% of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2016, compared to 7% of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2015. The increase in gross profit is primarily driven by the increased number of rental units, as during the six months ended June 30, 2016, we placed a total of 57 units, including personal and rehabilitation units, compared to 25 units during the six months ended June 30, 2015.
We expect our gross profit to increase in the future as we attempt to increase revenue and lower our unit manufacturing costs through specific cost-reduction projects and economies of scale.
Research and Development Expenses
Our research and development expenses, net for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 were as follows (in thousands):
|
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Three Months Ended June 30, | | Six Months Ended June 30, |
| 2016 | | 2015 | | 2016 | | 2015 |
Research and development expenses | $ | 3,074 |
| | $ | 1,450 |
| | $ | 4,769 |
| | $ | 2,987 |
|
Research and development expenses, net increased $1.6 million, or 112%, for the three months ended June 30, 2016 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2015. The increase in expenses is primarily attributable to the Collaboration Agreement and the License Agreement resulted in a total cost of $1.1 million, clinical study costs and increased personnel and personnel-related costs related to regulatory, quality and research and development activities for the three months ended June 30, 2016.
Research and development expenses, net increased $1.8 million, or 60%, for the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2015. The increase in expenses is primarily attributable to the Collaboration Agreement and the License Agreement resulted in a total cost of $1.1 million, clinical study costs and increased personnel and personnel-related costs related to regulatory, quality and research and development activities for the six months ended June 30, 2016.
We expect research and development costs to increase in the near future as we continue to devote resources to developing future generations of our products and increase spending on clinical studies.
Sales and Marketing Expenses
Our sales and marketing expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 were as follows (in thousands):
|
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Three Months Ended June 30, | | Six Months Ended June 30, |
| 2016 | | 2015 | | 2016 | | 2015 |
Sales and marketing expenses | $ | 3,504 |
| | $ | 2,996 |
| | $ | 6,803 |
| | $ | 5,514 |
|
Sales and marketing expenses increased $508 thousand, or 17%, for the three months ended June 30, 2016 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2015. Sales and marketing expenses increased $1.3 million, or 23%, for the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2015. These increases are attributable to an increase in personnel and personnel-related costs and reimbursement-related costs associated with expanding our sales, marketing and reimbursement-activities as we expand commercialization of the ReWalk Personal device.
In the near future, we expect growth in our sales and marketing expense will be driven by our continued investment in our reimbursement efforts, as we continue to pursue insurance claims on a case-by-case basis, manage claims through the review process and external appeals, and invest in efforts to expand coverage.
General and Administrative Expenses
Our general and administrative expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 were as follows (in thousands):
|
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

General and administrative | $ | 2,095 |
| | $ | 1,457 |

|
General and administrative expenses increased $638 thousand, or 44%, for the three months ended June 30, 2016 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2015. The increase in expenses is primarily attributable to personnel-related costs, professional services expenses and legal expenses.
General and administrative expenses increased $1.1 million, or 36%, for the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2015. The increase in expenses is primarily attributable to personnel-related costs and professional services expenses.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with United States GAAP. The preparation of our financial statements requires us to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that can affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. We base our estimates, judgments and assumptions on historical experience and other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Materially different results can occur as circumstances change and additional information becomes known. Besides the estimates identified above that are considered critical, we make many other accounting estimates in preparing our financial statements and related disclosures. See Note 2 to our audited consolidated financial statements presented in our 2015 Form 10-K for a description of the significant accounting policies that we used to prepare our consolidated financial statements.
There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies or our critical judgments from the information provided in “Part II, Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Critical Accounting Policies” of our 2015 Form 10-K.
New Accounting Pronouncements
See Note 3b to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements set forth in “Part I, Item 1. Financial Statements” of this quarterly report for information regarding new accounting pronouncements.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Sources of Liquidity and Outlook
Since inception, we have funded our operations primarily through the sale of certain of our equity securities and convertible notes to investors in private placements the sale of our ordinary shares in public offerings and the incurrence of bank debt.
On December 30, 2015, we entered into the Loan Agreement with Kreos pursuant to which Kreos extended a line of credit to us in the amount of $20.0 million. On January 4, 2016, we drew down $12.0 million, In the event that prior to December 31, 2016 we raise $10.0 million or more in connection with the issuance of shares of our capital stock (including debt convertible into shares of our capital stock), we will be able to draw down up to an additional $8.0 million in separate tranches until December 31, 2016, with a minimum required drawdown of $2 million each. Interest is payable monthly in arrears on any amounts drawn down at a rate of 10.75% per year from the applicable drawdown date through the date on which all principal is repaid. Principal is repayable monthly over a period of 24 months commencing 12 months after the applicable drawdown date, which period will be extended to 36 months if we raise $20.0 million or more in connection with the issuance of shares of our capital stock (including debt convertible into shares of our capital stock) prior to the expiration of the 24-month period. Pursuant to the Loan Agreement, we paid Kreos a transaction fee equal to 1.0% of the total available amount of the line of credit upon the execution of the agreement and we will be required to pay Kreos an end of loan payment equal to 1.0% of the amount of each tranche drawn down upon the expiration of each such tranche. Pursuant to the Loan Agreement, we granted Kreos a first priority security interest over all of our assets, including intellectual property and equity interests in its subsidiaries, subject to certain permitted security interests.
In connection with the Loan Agreement we issued to Kreos the Warrant to purchase up to 119,295 of our ordinary shares at an exercise price of $9.64 per share, which represented the average of the closing prices of our ordinary shares for the 30-day calendar period prior to the date of the issuance of the Warrant, subject to adjustment as set forth in the Warrant. In the event we draw-down any additional amounts under the line of credit, the amount of the Warrant will be increased by 5.75% of any such additional draw down. The Warrant is exercisable, in whole or in part, at any time prior to the earliest of (i) December 30, 2025 or (ii) immediately prior to the consummation of a merger, consolidation, or reorganization of our Company with or into, or the sale or license of all or substantially all our assets or shares to, any other entity or person, other than a wholly-owned subsidiary of our Company, excluding any transaction in which our shareholders prior to the transaction will hold more than 50% of the voting and economic rights of the surviving entity after the transaction.
Our initial public offering in September 2014 generated $36.3 million in net proceeds. Additionally, on May10, 2016, we entered into our Equity Distribution Agreement with Piper Jaffray, pursuant to which we may offer and sell, from time to time, ordinary shares having an aggregate offering price of up to $25.0 million through Piper Jaffray acting as our agent. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Equity Distribution Agreement, Piper Jaffray will use its commercially reasonable efforts to sell on our behalf all of the ordinary shares requested to be sold by us, consistent with its normal trading and sales practices. Piper Jaffray may also act as principal in the sale of ordinary shares under the Equity Distribution Agreement. Such sales may be made under our Form S-3 in what may be deemed “at-the-market” equity offerings as defined in Rule 415 promulgated under the Securities Act, directly on or through the NASDAQ Global Market, to or through a market maker other than on an exchange or otherwise, in negotiated transactions at market prices prevailing at the time of sale or at prices related to such prevailing market prices, and/or any other method permitted by law, including in privately negotiated transactions. Piper Jaffray is entitled to compensation at a fixed commission rate of 3.0% of the gross sales price per share sold through it as agent under the Equity Distribution Agreement. Where Piper Jaffray acts as principal in the sale of ordinary shares under the Equity Distribution Agreement, such rate of compensation will not apply, but in no event will the total compensation of Piper Jaffray, when combined with the reimbursement of Piper Jaffray for the out-of-pocket fees and disbursements of its legal counsel, exceed 8.0% of the gross proceeds received from the sale of the ordinary shares.
We may instruct Piper Jaffray not to sell ordinary shares if the sales cannot be effected at or above the price designated by us in any instruction. We or Piper Jaffray may suspend an offering of ordinary shares under the ATM Offering Program upon proper notice and subject to other conditions, as further described in the Equity Distribution Agreement. Additionally, the ATM Offering Program will terminate on the earlier of (i) the sale of all ordinary shares subject to the Equity Distribution Agreement or (ii) the termination of the Equity Distribution Agreement. The Equity Distribution Agreement may be terminated by Piper Jaffray or us at any time on the close of business on the date of receipt of written notice, and by Piper Jaffray at any time in certain circumstances, including any suspension or limitation on the trading of our ordinary shares on the NASDAQ Global Market, as further described in the Equity Distribution Agreement. As of August 2, 2016, we had sold 100,075 ordinary shares under the ATM Offering Program for net proceeds to us of $437 thousand (after commissions, fees and expenses). Additionally, as of that date, we had paid Piper Jaffray compensation of $23 thousand and had incurred total expenses of approximately $333 thousand in connection with the ATM Offering Program.
As of June 30, 2016, we had cash and cash equivalents of $15.7 million. We expect to fund future capital requirements from cash and cash equivalents, cash flow generated from our operations, borrowings under the Loan Agreement with Kreos, issuances under our ATM Offering Program, other future issuances of equity and debt securities, or through a combination of the foregoing to meet our anticipated cash requirements for the next 12 months. Our anticipated primary uses of cash are sales, marketing and reimbursement expenses related to market development activities and broadening third-party payor coverage, and research and development costs for enhancements to our current product and activities related to the development of the next generation of ReWalk systems. Our future cash requirements will depend on many factors, including our rate of revenue growth, the expansion of our sales and marketing activities, the timing and extent of our spending on research and development efforts and international expansion. If our current estimates of revenue, expenses or capital or liquidity requirements change or are inaccurate, we may seek to sell additional equity or debt securities, arrange for additional bank debt financing or refinance our indebtedness.

(1) Our purchase obligations consist of purchase commitments to our manufacturer.
(2) Our Research Collaboration Agreement is for a period of five years and requires us to pay in quarterly installments for the funding of our joint research collaboration with Harvard, subject to a minimum funding commitment under applicable circumstances . Our License Agreement consists of patent reimbursement expenses payments and of license upfront fee payment. There are also several milestone payments contingent upon the achievement of certain product development and commercialization milestones and royalty payments on net sales from certain patents licensed to Harvard. These product development and commercialization milestones depend on favorable clinical developments, sales and regulatory actions, some or all of which may not occur. Since the achievement and timing of these milestones is neither determinable nor reasonably estimable, these milestone payments are not included in this “Contractual Obligations” table or recorded on our consolidated condensed balance sheet as of June 30, 2016. Moreover, since such royalties are dependent on future product sales which are neither determinable nor reasonably estimable, these royalty payments are not included in this “Contractual Obligations” table or recorded on our consolidated condensed balance sheet as of June 30, 2016.
(3) Our operating leases consist of leases for our facilities and motor vehicles.
(4) Our long-term debt obligations consist of payments of principal and interest under our Loan Agreement with Kreos.
We calculated the payments due under our operating lease obligation for our Israeli office that are to be paid in NIS at a rate of exchange of NIS 3.846:$1.00, and the payments due under our operating lease obligation for our German subsidiary that are to be paid in euros at a rate of exchange of 1.13 Euro:$1:00, both of which were the applicable exchange rates as of June 30, 2016. We calculated the payments due under our Loan Agreement with Kreos according to the current schedule of repayment of principal and interest.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We had no off-balance sheet arrangements or guarantees of third-party obligations as of June 30, 2016.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

There have been no material changes to our risk factors from those disclosed in “Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors” of our 2015 Form 10-K, except as noted below:
The FDA previously sent us letters regarding potential regulatory action for deficiencies in our mandatory post-market surveillance study on our ReWalk Personal 6.0. While we have since initiated this post-market surveillance study with a revised FDA-approved protocol, if we cannot satisfy future FDA requests promptly or if our study produces unfavorable results, we could receive additional FDA warning letter, and our labeling or marketing efforts could be materially adversely affected.
On September 30, 2015, we received a warning letter (the “September 2015 Letter”) from the FDA citing deficiencies in our protocol for a post-market surveillance study of our ReWalk Personal and our failure to initiate a post-market study by the September 28, 2015 deadline. Between June 2014 and our receipt of the September 2015 Letter, we submitted our post-market study protocol to the FDA, amended the protocol in response to the FDA’s subsequent request and proposed additional amendments to enhance the protocol after the FDA notified us that our subsequently-amended protocol was still deficient. While we responded to the FDA’s requests throughout this period, we did not submit all of our responses on a timely basis. The September 2015 Letter warned that the FDA could take regulatory action against us for violations of Section 522 of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act based on the late post-market study and allegedly deficient protocol for that study. In February 2016, the FDA sent us an additional information request (the “February 2016 Letter”) requesting additional changes to our post-market surveillance study protocol and asking that we comply within 30 days. This letter also discussed the FDA’s request, as modified in our later discussions with the FDA, for a new pre-market notification for our ReWalk device linked to what the FDA viewed as changes to a computer included with the device (the “special 510(k)”).
In late March 2016, following our multiple discussions with the FDA, including an in-person meeting, the FDA confirmed that the agency would apply enforcement discretion to continued marketing of the ReWalk device conditioned upon our submitting a special 510(k) by April 8, 2016 and initiating our post-market surveillance study by June 1, 2016. The special 510(k) was submitted on April 8, 2016 and the FDA’s substantial equivalence determination was received by us on July 22, 2016 granting us permission to continue marketing the ReWalk device. Additionally, we submitted a protocol to the FDA for the post-market surveillance study that was approved by the agency on May 5, 2016. We began the study on June 13, 2016, with Stanford University as the lead investigational site. The post market surveillance study is currently ongoing, we have provided and intend to continue providing the FDA with required periodic reports on the study's progress.
We expect we will be able to respond promptly to the FDA’s further requests related to the post-market surveillance study based on significant additions in staffing aimed at addressing a need for greater internal clinical and regulatory resources. However, if we are unable to satisfy this timing or if the results of our post-market surveillance study are not as favorable as we expect, the FDA may issue additional warning letters to us, may impose limitations on the labelling of our device or may limit us to marketing a previous version of the ReWalk device in the United States. We derived 65% of our revenues in 2015 from sales of the ReWalk device in the United States and, if we are required to market a previous version of the ReWalk device in the United States, we expect that these sales would be adversely impacted, which could materially adversely affect our business and overall results of operations.
The market for medical exoskeletons is new and unproven, and important assumptions about the potential market for our products may be inaccurate.
The market for medical exoskeletons is new and unproven. Accordingly, it is difficult to predict the future size and rate of growth of the market. We cannot be certain whether the market will continue to develop or if medical exoskeletons will achieve and sustain a level of market acceptance and demand sufficient for us to continue to generate revenue and achieve profitability.
We obtained FDA clearance for our ReWalk Personal device in June 2014. This clearance permits us to market the device for use by individuals with spinal cord injury at levels T7 to L5 and for use by individuals in rehabilitation institutions with spinal cord injury at levels T4 to L5. The FDA’s clearance requires users of the device to meet the following criteria: healthy hands and shoulders that can support crutches, healthy bone density, no skeletal fractures, in good general health, ability to stand with a stander device, weight of less than 220 pounds/100 kilograms and height between 5 feet 3 inches and 6 feet. 2 inches/1.60 meters and 1.88 meters. Additionally, the FDA clearance contraindicates psychiatric or cognitive conditions that could interfere with a user’s proper operation of the device and various other clinical conditions, including pregnancy, severe concurrent medical diseases, a history of severe neurological injuries other than spinal cord injury, impaired joint mobility, unhealed limbs or pelvic fractures or unstable spine, severe spasticity and significant and chronic loss of joint mobility due to structural changes in non-bony tissue. Future products for those with paraplegia, quadriplegia or other mobility impairments or spinal cord injuries may have the same or other restrictions.
Our business strategy is based, in part, on our estimates of the number of mobility impaired individuals and the incurrence of spinal cord injuries in our target markets and the percentage of those groups that would be able to use our current and future products. Limited sources exist to obtain reliable market data with respect to the number of mobility-impaired individuals and the incurrence of spinal cord injuries in our target markets. In addition, there are no third-party reports or studies regarding what percentage of those with limited mobility or spinal cord injuries would be able to use exoskeletons, in general, or our current or planned future products, in particular. Our assumptions may be inaccurate and may change.
The National Spinal Cord Injury Statistical Center estimates as of 2014 that there were 276,000 people in the United States living with spinal cord injury (“SCI”). Based on information from a 2013 report by the National Spinal Cord Injury Statistical Center, 41.1% of the total U.S. population of SCI patients suffered injuries between levels T4 and L5. Three published ReWalk trials with respect to such eligible SCI patients had an aggregate screening acceptance rate of 79% considering all current FDA limitations, resulting in an estimated 33% of the total population of SCI patents being candidates for current ReWalk products. Based on the same three studies, we estimate that the percentage of candidates eligible for current and future ReWalk products could increase to approximately 80% of SCI patients as we plan to adapt our ReWalk products for use by individuals with other indications affecting the ability to walk, including quadriplegia. We cannot assure you that our estimate regarding our current products is accurate or that our estimate regarding future products will remain the same. FDA clearance for such products, if received at all, may contain different limitations from the ones the FDA has placed on the device we currently market for paraplegia patients. If our estimates of our current or future addressable market are incorrect, our business may not develop as we expect and our share price may suffer.
