ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are exposed to a variety
of risks, including changes in interest rates affecting primarily the interest received on short-term deposits and foreign currency fluctuations.
We may in the future undertake hedging or other similar transactions or invest in market, risk-sensitive instruments if our management
determines that it is necessary to offset these risks.
Interest Rate Risk
Our exposure to market risks
regarding changes in interest rates relates primarily to our bank deposits and to loans we may take that are based on a floating/fixed
interest rate. Our bank deposits are held mainly in U.S. dollars with financial banks and bear annual average interest range of approximately
5.15%-7.10%. For the purposes of specific risk analysis, we use a sensitivity analysis to determine the impact that market risk exposure
may have on the financial income derived from our bank deposits. The potential loss to us over one year that would result from a hypothetical
change in our annual average range interest rates of 10% is not material.
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk
Our financial results may
be impacted by foreign currency fluctuations. Our foreign operations are generally transacted through our U.S. and Brazil subsidiaries
and through our representatives and distributors. Typically, these sales and related expenses are denominated in U.S. dollars, BRLs or
in euros for European countries, while a significant portion of our expenses are denominated in NIS. Because our financial results are
reported in U.S. dollars, our results of operations may be impacted by fluctuations in the rates of exchange between the U.S. dollar and
other currencies, mainly the NIS and BRL. Based on our budget for 2025, we expect that (i) a change of ten percent (10%) in the exchange
rate of the NIS to U.S. dollar will have an impact on our operating expenses expressed in dollar terms by approximately $2 million per
year and vice versa and (ii) a change of ten percent (10%) in the exchange rate of the BRL to U.S. dollar will have an impact on our operating
expenses expressed in dollar terms by approximately $65,000 per year and vice versa.
