Liquidity
The Company is engaged in research and development activities and has not derived any income from its activities since inception. The Company has incurred an accumulated deficit in the amount of $1.8 million as of December 31, 2024 and negative cash flows from operating activities. The Company expects to continue incurring losses, and negative cash flows from operations until its activities reach profitability. While management is actively
exploring various financing, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in obtaining such financing. These circumstances raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for one year from
the date the financial statements are issued.
These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might results from the outcome of this uncertainty.
|
|
a.
|
Basis of presentation of the financial statements
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”).
|
|
b.
|
Use of estimates in the preparation of financial statements
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities,
the 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. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include,
but are not limited to, the fair value of financial liabilities. The Company bases these estimates on historical and anticipated results, trends and various other assumptions that it believes are reasonable under the circumstances,
including assumptions as to future events. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
|
|
c.
|
Functional currency
|
|
|
1) |
Functional and presentation currency
Items included in the financial statements of the Company are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Company operates (the “functional currency”). The
U.S. dollar is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the operations of the Company are conducted. The financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars.
|
|
|
2) |
Transactions and balances
Transactions and balances originally denominated in U.S. dollars are presented at their original amounts. Balances in non-U.S. dollar currencies are translated into U.S. dollars using
historical and current exchange rates for non-monetary and monetary balances, respectively. For non-U.S. dollar transactions and other items in the statements of income (indicated below), the following exchange rates are used: (i) for
transactions – exchange rates at transaction dates or average exchange rates; and (ii) for other items (derived from non-monetary balance sheet items such as depreciation and amortization) – historical exchange rates. Currency transaction
gains and losses are presented in financial income, net, as appropriate.

d.
|
Cash and cash equivalents
The Company considers as cash equivalents all short-term, highly liquid investments, which include short-term bank deposits with original maturities of three months or
less from the date of purchase that are not restricted as to withdrawal or use and are readily convertible to known amounts of cash.

Fair value measurement
The Company measures fair value and discloses fair value measurements for financial assets and liabilities. Fair value is based on the price that would be received to
sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The accounting standard establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used
to measure fair value into three broad levels, which are described below:
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 inputs 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.

Leases:
The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception and recognize in accordance with ASC Topic 842, “Leases”. Operating leases are included in operating lease
right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, accrued expenses and other liabilities and long-term operating lease liabilities in the Company’s balance sheets.
ROU assets represent the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease.
Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term.
The Company uses incremental borrowing rates based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments.
|
|
|
As of December 31, 2023 and 2024, the Company did not have any lease agreement with periods exceeding 12 months. The Company elected the practical expedient of the short-term lease recognition exemption for all leases with a term
shorter than 12 months.
|
|
e.
|
Financial Liabilities at fair value through profit or loss
The convertible loans and Simple Agreements for Future Equity (“SAFE”) are convertible into a variable number of ordinary shares and are classified as financial liabilities. The Company elected to
account for the convertible loans and SAFE under the fair value option in accordance with ASC 825, “Financial Instruments.” Under the fair value option, changes in fair value are recorded in earnings except for fair value
adjustments related to instrument specific credit risk, which are recorded as financial expenses in the statement of operations.
As of December 31, 2024, al convertible loans and SAFE were converted into ordinary shares. |
|
f.
|
Share-based compensation
The Company grants share options to its employees and non-employees in consideration for services rendered.
The Company accounts for Share-Based Compensation awards classified as equity awards, including share-based option awards using grant-date fair value. The Company recognizes the
value of the award as an expense over the requisite service period.
The Company calculates the fair value of stock-based option awards on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The option-pricing model
requires a number of assumptions, of which the most significant are the expected share price volatility and the expected option term. The computation of expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of other
comparable publicly-traded companies. The expected option term is calculated using the simplified method, as the Company has concluded that its historical share option exercise experience does not provide a reasonable basis to
estimate expected option terms. The interest rate for periods within the expected term of an award is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The Company’s expected dividend rate is zero because
the Company does not currently pay cash dividends on its shares and does not anticipate doing so in the foreseeable future.
The Company elected to recognize compensation costs for awards granted to employees and directors conditioned only on continued service that have a graded vesting schedule using
the accelerated method based on the multiple-option award approach. The Company has elected to account for forfeitures as they occur.

Research and development expenses
Research and development expenses include costs directly attributable to the conduct of
research and development programs, including the cost of salaries, share-based compensation expenses, payroll taxes and other employee benefits, lab expenses, consumable equipment and consulting fees. All costs associated with
research and development are expensed as incurred.
|
|
h.
|
Income taxes
|
|
|
1) |
Deferred taxes
Deferred income taxes are computed using the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between
the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws. A valuation allowance is recognized to the extent that it is more likely than not that the deferred taxes
will not be realized in the foreseeable future.
As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company had full valuation allowance on its deferred tax asset. |
|
|
2) |
Uncertainty in income taxes
The Company follows a two-step approach in recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the available evidence
indicates that it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained based on technical merits. If this threshold is met, the second step is to measure the tax position as the largest amount that has more than a 50%
likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement.
|
|
i.
|
Government grants
The Company receives royalty-free grants, which represents participation in approved programs for research and development. These amounts are recognized on the accrual
basis as a reduction of research and development costs as such costs are incurred.

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. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance to determine the impact it may have on its financial statements.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03 “Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses”, which requires disclosure about
the types of costs and expenses included in certain expense captions presented on the income statement. ASU 2024-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning after December 15,
2027, with early adoption permitted, and may be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance to determine the impact it may have on its financial statements.

Between 2013 through 2015, the Company entered into Convertible Loan Agreement (the “CLA”) with several investors pursuant to a Note Purchase Agreement dated July 20, 2014, as subsequently amended. The total
amount of convertible loans received during 2013, 2014 and 2015 was $50 and $225 and $35, respectively (together - the "Convertible Loans"). The maturity date of the Convertible Loan initially was until December 31, 2015 and subsequently
extended to February 5, 2025.
According to the CLA, the Convertible Loans bear annual interest of 6% and the shall be converted into the Company's most senior class of shares at the occurrence of certain events, such
as an IPO or an additional financing round, in which case the Shareholders' Convertible Loans shall be converted into shares of the Company of the same class and series (with the same rights' preferences and privileges) as shall be issued
in the qualified financing round. The number of shares calculated by 20% discount of the future equity financing price.
As of December 31, 2023, the Company applied a probability assessment of the occurrence of any of the specified conversions and determined that the fair value of the Convertible Loans is
$480.
The Company remeasurement expenses related to the Convertible Loan for the year ended December 31, 2024 were $2, compared to $19 of remeasurement expenses for the year ended December 31,
2023, which were included as part of the financial expenses in the Company's statements of operations. During the years ended December 31, 2024, and December 31, 2023, the Company did not recognize any instrument specific credit risk fair
value adjustment.
On May 20, 2024, the Company and the Convertible Loan holders entered into conversion agreement. According to the agreement, the amount of loan received and accrued interest shall be
converted into the Company’s ordinary shares at a price per share of $1.66. Upon conversion, the Company issued 289,451 shares.
On October 18, 2018, the Company Simple Agreements for Future Equity ("SAFE") with several investors ("the Lenders") in total amount of $1,170,000. As part of the agreement, the Lenders
have the right to receive shares of the Company’s capital stock in the event of certain triggering events, including equity financing, liquidity events, or dissolution of the Company. In which the Company issues at a fixed pre-money
valuation, the Company will automatically issue to the lenders a number of Safe Preferred Stock calculated by the lower of company valuation of $20,000,000 or 85% of the equity financing.
Under the terms of the SAFE, the investment does not accrue interest and does not have a maturity date. The Company remeasurement expenses related to the SAFE for the year ended December 31, 2024 were $35, compared to $1 of remeasurement income for the year ended December 31, 2023, which
were included as part of the financial expenses in the Company's statements of operation. During the years ended December 31, 2024, and December 31, 2023, the Company did not recognize any instrument specific credit risk fair value
adjustment.
On May 20, 2024, the SAFE was converted into the Company’s ordinary shares at a price per share of $1.66. Upon conversion, the Company issued 704,808 shares. |

Fair Value Measurements
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, other current assets, trade payables, other payables approximate their fair values due to the short-term maturities of such instruments.
As of December 31, 2023, the Company classified the measures the fair value of SAFE instrument and Convertible Loans as Level 3.
The fair value of the SAFE instruments measured using a scenario analysis approach, incorporating probability-weighted outcomes. The primary assumptions used in the valuation included: Probability for Equity Financing or Merger: 85%–87%, Probability of Liquidation or Default: 13%–15% and USD Risk-Free Interest Rate: 5%–6. As of December 31, 2024, the Company did not have any instrument measures at fair value. The following is a roll-forward of the fair value of the liabilities classified under level 3:

In assessing the likelihood of realizing deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be
realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences and carry forward losses become deductible. Based on the taxable
loss in the Israel and in the United States, management believes it was more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
|
|
|
e) |
Reconciliation of theoretical tax expenses to actual expenses:
The primary difference between the statutory tax rate of the Company and the effective rate results virtually from the changes in valuation allowance in respect of carry forward tax losses
and research and development expenses due to the uncertainty of the realization of such tax benefits.
|
|
|
f) |
Uncertain tax positions
As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company did not have a provision for uncertain tax positions as existing uncertain tax positions.

Liquidity
The Company is engaged in research and development activities and has not derived any income from its activities since inception. The Company has incurred an accumulated deficit in the amount of $1.8 million as of June 30, 2025 and negative cash flows from operating activities. The Company expects to continue incurring losses, and negative cash flows from operations until its activities reach profitability. While
management is actively exploring various financing, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in obtaining such financing. These circumstances raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going
concern for one year from the date the financial statements are issued.
These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might results from the outcome of this uncertainty.

a. |
Basis of presentation of the financial statements
These unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America
("U.S. GAAP") for interim financial statements. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, these unaudited condensed financial
statements reflect all adjustments, which include normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s financial position as of June 30, 2025, the consolidated results of operations and statements of changes
in shareholders' equity for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, and cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2025 and 2024.
The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending
December 31, 2025.
These unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements of the Company as of and for the year ended December 31, 2024. |

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. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance to determine the impact it may have on its financial statements.

|
|
2) |
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03 “Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses”, which requires disclosure about the types of
costs and expenses included in certain expense captions presented on the income statement. ASU 2024-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption
permitted, and may be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance to determine the impact it may have on its financial statements.
