| FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT | NOTE 13 - FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT:
The Company is exposed to a variety of financial risks, which results from its financing, operating and investing activities. The objective of financial risk management is to contain, where appropriate, exposures in these financial risks to limit any negative impact on the Company’s financial performance and position.
The Company’s financial instruments are its cash, trade and other receivables, payables, other payables and loans in different currencies (NIS, CAD and USD). The main purpose of these financial instruments is to raise finance for the Company’s operation. The Company actively measures, monitors and manages its financial risk exposures by various functions pursuant to the segregation of duties and principals. The risks arising from the Company’s financial instruments are mainly credit risk and currency risk. The risk rate on loans is fixed. The risk management policies employed by the Company to manage these risks are discussed below.
Credit risk arises when a failure by counterparties to discharge their obligations could reduce the amount of future cash inflows from financial assets on hand at the balance sheet date. The Company closely monitors the activities of its counterparties and controls access to its intellectual property, which enables it to ensure the prompt collection of customers’ balances.
The Company’s main financial assets are cash and cash equivalents and trade accounts receivable and represent the Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk in connection with its financial assets. Wherever possible and commercially practical the Company holds cash with major financial institutions In Israel.

NOTE 13 - FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT (CONTINUED):
Liquidity risk is the risk that arises when the maturity of assets and the maturity of liabilities do not match. An unmatched position potentially enhances profitability but can also increase the risk of loss. The Company has procedures with the object of minimizing such loss by maintaining sufficient cash and other highly liquid current assets and by having an available adequate amount of committed credit facilities. The following tables detail the Company’s remaining contractual maturity for its financial liabilities. The tables have been drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities based on the earliest date on which the Company can be required to pay.
The Company’s’ business of maintenance services of various electronic systems is highly competitive and involves a certain degree of risk. The Company’s business operations will depend largely upon the outcome of continued sales and services to security establishments and the initiation of sales of their products to the civilian markets.
The Company’s Cust2Mate business is new, and the Company is aware of competitors in the market. In addition to the regular management oversight and skills required, success in this segment will require the Company to penetrate the market as rapidly as possible.
Foreign exchange risk arises when the Company enters into transactions denominated in a currency other than its functional currency. The Company buys its inventories mostly in USD and sells its products in NIS.
As of June 30, 2026, if the Company’s functional currency (ILS) had strengthened/ weakened by 5% against the USD, with all other variables held constant, the loss for the six month period would decrease /increase by approximately $557.
The Company’s exposure to cash flow interest rate risk from long-term borrowings at variable rate, which is immaterial.
The Company has incurred recurring losses and negative cash flows from operating activities since inception, such that as of June 30, 2026, the Company had accumulated losses of $153,416 thousand and a net loss in the amount of $15,617 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2026. As of the date of the issuance of the accompanied condensed consolidated interim financial statements, the Company has not yet commenced generating sufficient revenues to fund its operations and therefore depends on fundraising from new and existing investors to finance its activities.
The Company’s main use for liquidity is to fund the development of its programs and working capital purposes. These activities include research and development, product development, sales and marketing and administrative costs. The primary source of liquidity has been from financing activities to date. The ability to fund operations, to make planned capital expenditures and execute the growth/acquisition strategy depends on the future operating performance and cash flows, which are subject to prevailing economic conditions, regulatory and financial, business and other factors, some of which are beyond the Company’s control.
The Company intends to grow rapidly and expand its operations within the next 12 to 24 months. This growth, along with the expectation of operating at a loss for at minimum the next 12 months, will diminish the Company’s working capital. To the extent that the Company raises further capital, any additional equity financing may be dilutive to investors and debt financing, if available, may involve restrictions on financing and operating activities. There is no assurance that additional financing will be available on terms acceptable to the Company, if at all. If the Company is unable to obtain additional financing as needed, it may be required to and has the ability to reduce the scope of its operations or anticipated expansion.
