Interim Financial Results for the 6 months ended June 30, 2021 ("IFR")

 

Shefa Gems (LSE: SEFA), is pleased to announce its results for the six months ended June 30, 2021. These reports were prepared considering the reorganization of the assets that the Company is currently implementing, following the approval of the combined transaction as approved by the special general meeting of the Company's shareholders (the "Combined Transaction"; "SGM") held on August 9, 2021 (and reported on August 10, 2021).

 

Corporate and Financial - Highlights

 

·    As of March 1, 2021, all the Company's mining activity was transferred to its fully owned Subsidiary - Shefa in Israel (G.M.) Ltd. (the "Subsidiary"). As of that date, the subsidiary is solely responsible for covering the expenses related to the mining activity (See Note 3A to the IFR). The Subsidiary received loans from 2 of Shefa's old shareholders, in the amount of approximately £ 983,000 for the benefit of continued financing and promotion of mining activities.

 

·    The Company financed its limited operations (excluding the mining business) through the realization of shares of Nala Digital it owned in the amount of approximately £ 266,000.

 

Post Period - In accordance with the provisions of the Combined Transaction, and following the approval of the SGM on August 9, 2021, the Company performed the following actions:

 

·    Mr. Alon Shany (Executive Chairman), Mr. Jacques Abitbol (Non-Executive Director), Ms. Eva Abittan (Non-Executive Director) have been appointed to the Board. Michael Rosenberg, David Nachshon, Gershon Frenkel, Zvi Nemeth, James Campbell and Natan Drukman have stepped down from the Board.  Mr. Yossef Taub remains on the board as a Non-Executive Director, and Ms. Nathalie Schwarz remains on the board as an independent Non-Executive Director.

·    Ms. Irit Ben Ami, who was appointed to serve as an Independent Director on the Company's Board (subject to shareholders approval), has a BA in Economy and Accounting from the Haifa University in Israeli and an LLM in Law from the IDC Herzliya in Israel.  She is qualified under the Israeli Companies Law as an expert director and possesses financial and accounting expertise.  She serves as an external director in two Israeli publicly traded companies in the fields of clean energy and medical cannabis, Medivie Therapeutic Ltd. and Together Pharma Ltd.  Until 2019, she also served as a director in Nano Dimension, a public company in the field of 3D printing.

·    Mr. Avi Levin, who was appointed to serve as an Independent Director on the Company's Board (subject to shareholders approval), has a BA in Economy and Accounting from the Ben Gurion University in Israeli and an MBA in Finance and Global Business from the New York University. He holds a chartered accountant license in Israel and a CPA in the U.S.  In addition to his appointment in the Company, he also serves as a CFO in Blackswan Technologies, a company in the field of cloud computing and artificial intelligence.  He is qualified under the Israeli Companies Law as an expert director and possesses financial and accounting expertise.

·    On September 6, 2021, the Company announced the conclusion of the equity subscription of 2,123,543,065 new ordinary shares of the Company at a price of USD 0.0005 per share raising a total of USD 1,050,000 ("Investment Funds") by new investors. The Company is aware of its obligation to publish a prospectus in connection with the foregoing equity subscription and is progressing it.

 

·    Out of the Investment Funds, USD 700,000 was used to pay liabilities related to the exploration assets. As a result, the Company has no further liabilities in relation to the mining activity (except for share-related liabilities). The balance of USD 350,000 will be used by the Company to finance the limited activity (excluding mining activity) until the implementation of the acquisition strategy in the web technology and software space (See Note 4H to the IFR).

 

·    The Company intends shortly to apply to the Israeli Registrar of Companies to approve to change of its name to "Alef Bet Advanced Technologies (2021)". The purpose of the name change is to more closely reflect the Company's strategy to make an acquisition in the web technology and software space. Subject to the approval of the Israeli Registrar of Companies to the change of name, the Company will make application to the London Stock Exchange to change its TDIM symbol from "SEFA" to "ALEF". Shareholders should note that their shareholdings will be unaffected by the change of name, although new share certificates will be issued to Shareholders following the name change.  The Company will notify the market of when the change of name and TIDM will be effective. 

 

·    In accordance with Israeli law, the Company has appointed attorney Natan Drukman as a trustee to hold the shares of the Subsidiary (the owner of the mining business) - and will be progressing with the disposal of the mining business by way of a dividend in specie to existing shareholders.  This is expected to be completed subject to the schedule to be determined by the court in Israel. On the basis of the attached IFR and the independent valuation of the transferred assets (for tax purposes) - an application for approval of the dividend in specie process will be submitted in the coming days. The trustee will update on the schedule and progress of the process and any matter concerning the disposal of the mining business - through the RNS reporting system.

 

 

Alon Shany, Executive Chairman of Shefa Gems, said:

 

"We are excited about the new direction the Company is taking and are pleased to welcome new shareholders to the Company.

We believe that this Company as a cash shell is exceptional for itself, in terms that allow a common ground between Israel and London - so we expect interesting opportunities in the future, in the web technology and software space, and aim for acquiring a company with a strong potential for profitability and benefit for the Company and its shareholders. We are working hard to find the best company for the future of the Company as we see it.

We hope and know that all of new and existing shareholders will be excited as we are."

REVIEW REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

To the Shareholders of

SHEFA GEMS LTD.

Introduction

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed interim consolidated financial statements of SHEFA GEMS LTD. (hereinafter - "the Company") comprising the condensed interim consolidated statements of financial position as of June 30, 2021 and the related condensed interim consolidated statements of comprehensive loss, consolidated changes in shareholders' equity and consolidated cash flows for the six month period then ended. The board of directors and management are responsible for the preparation and presentation of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements in accordance with IAS 34, "Interim Financial Reporting". Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on these interim consolidated financial statements based on our review.

 

Scope of the Review

We conducted our review in accordance with the Israeli Review Standard (Israel) 2410, "Review of Financial Information for Interim Periods Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity" of the Association of Certified Public Accountants in Israel. A review of financial information for interim periods consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Auditing Standards accepted in Israel. Consequently, it does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all the significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

 

Basis for the Qualified Conclusion

We were not satisfied in regard to the NIS 29 million amount of impairment of the exploration assets that is included in other expenses in the Company statements of comprehensive loss, and in accordance in regard to the amount that is shown for the assets held for distribution to shareholders. See Note 3 in regard to uncertainty in the value estimation of the exploration assets.

 

Conclusion

Based on our review, except for the abovementioned item, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to suspect that the financial information abovementioned was not prepared, from all significant aspects, in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34.

 

 

 

We draw attention as follows:

1. Note 1d of the condensed interim financial statements - the Company has accumulated losses since its inception and does not have any operations that yield revenues. Financing of its operations has, until now, been performed by infusions of capital and/ or loans and the continued operations are dependent on further mobilizations. The Company plans to continue the existing operations is by distributing a dividend in kind and to introduce new operations, but this is uncertain. These facts raise significant doubt as to the continued existence of the Company as a "going concern."

 

These condensed interim financial statements do not include any adjustments to the value of the assets and liabilities and their classifications that would possibly be necessary in the event that the Company cannot continue as a "going concern."

2. We draw attention to Note 3 of the condensed interim financial statements in regard to a transaction for realization of the exploration assets by declaring a dividend in kind to its shareholders, subsequent to authorization by the Court, that will reduce the Company capital in the amount of approximately NIS 35 million and will introduce new operations.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(In NIS in thousands)

 

       NOTE 1:- GENERAL

 

 

 

A.

1.

The reported entity -

 

 

Shefa Gems Ltd. [previously: Shefa Yamim (A.T.M.) LTD.] (hereinafter - "the Company") is an Israeli company engaged in exploration for diamond, gold and precious stones in the northern area of Israel.

 

 

As of December 31, 2020 the controlling interest in the Company is Nela Digital Ltd. (previously known as Shefa Yamim LTD.) that held 33.77%. During April 2020 as part of an arrangement of a debt owed by Nela Digital LTD., its holdings in the Company were transferred to a trustee who was appointed by the Court and the two companies did not consolidate their financial statements.

 

 

The shareholders of Nela Digital were given an option to directly hold these shares, as detailed in the agreement.

 

 

 

 

 

2.

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements are to be viewed together with the annual financial statements of the Company as of December 31, 2020 and their accompanying Notes.

 

 

 

 

 

B.

During November 2020 the Company's board of directors decided to make organizational changes within the Company. In the framework of these changes, the prospecting and exploration operations in search for precious stones and gold, performed by the Company from its inception until March 2021, would be transferred to its subsidiary (Shefa in Israel (G.M) Ltd., hereinafter - "the subsidiary"). We note that the financial statements include adjustments in regard to the value of the assets and liabilities in view of the transfer of the exploration assets to the subsidiary. As of the date of approval of the consolidated financial statements, the subsidiary is continuing to perform the exploration and prospecting operations in accordance with the valid permits (see note 3(a)).

 

 

 

 

C.

On August 9, 2021 the special meeting of shareholders approved the joint transaction signed between the Company and the third party. Please see Note 4.

 

 

 

 

D.

The Company has suffered losses since its inception and, does not have any revenues from operations. Financing of its operations has been performed until now by infusions of capital and/ or by loans received by a shareholding company and its continued operation is contingent upon further infusions of capital. In view of the agreement signed between the Company and a third party, as detailed in Note 4, the company's management believes that it can mobilize the money resources in order to complete the explorations, but there remains uncertainty in this regard since the mobilizations are dependent on other parties. These factors create significant doubts in regard to continued operation of the Company as a "going concern."

 

 

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not contain any adjustments for valuation of assets and liabilities or their classifications that would likely be necessary in the event that the Company is unable to continue its operation as a "going concern."

 NOTE 3:- COMPOSITION OF ASSETS FOR DISRIBUTION TO SHAREHOLDERS

 

 

a.

Agreement between the Company and its subsidiary for transfer of ownership in regard to exploration assets

 

 

On November 29, 2020 an agreement was signed between the Company and the subsidiary, in the framework of which the Company obligated to transfer to the subsidiary the ownership of all exploration assets by January 1, 2021. Concurrently, all business operations that are related to exploration assets, including officers, employees, agreements, advisors, suppliers, etc. were transferred to the subsidiary. In addition, it was agreed that, commencing March 1, 2021, all expenses in regard to operations related to the exploration assets will belong to the subsidiary.

 

 

In accordance with the aforementioned, all exploration assets were actually transferred, including: the Discovery permit for the Kishon area, the exploration permit for the Carmel, the search permit for the Carmel and the exploration license for Bat Shlomo. We note that this transfer of ownership received final validation also from the Mining Inspector and from the Legal Department of the Energy Ministry as of August 9, 2021. Concurrently, the transfer includes all the agreements, trademarks, machinery and professional equipment, goodwill and all the related information accumulated during exploration operations performed until now.

 

 

Commencing March 1, 2021, the subsidiary started to bear the operating expenses related to exploratory assets, as agreed, by loans from interested parties that were rendered to the subsidiary.

 

 

Commencing June 1, 2021 all the professional employees, (including professional management, but not the Company directors) ,were transferred for direct employment by the subsidiary, including the continuity of their rights. All exploratory operations are performed currently by the subsidiary using the same professional management and standards that were utilized beforehand.

 

 

As consideration for transfer of the abovementioned assets, the subsidiary allocated to the Company during the half years an amount of 201,347,822 Ordinary shares and with this adjustment the Company now owns 100% of the subsidiary.

 

 

As of the date of the financial statements and commencing with August, the subsidiary's shares that were allocated to the Company are held in trust, until the process of new operations will be completed (see Note 4).

 

 

 

 

b.

Impairment of the exploration assets

 

 

Further to the Company's intention to transfer its exploration and evaluation assets to its shareholders, the Company examined the exploration and evaluation assets for precious stones to determine whether there are signs that determine a decrement. In the framework of this examination, the Company received an evaluation from an independent assessor. The pitfalls that were confronting the assessor in this regard included the uncertainty from a regulatory viewpoint, as well as the uncertainty in regard to the actual market value of precious stones  (including exclusive precious stones in Israel that as yet do not have an open market), uncertainty in regard to assets that have not as yet been determined as a discovery, whether because the exploration in certain areas has not been completed or whether there is not complete certainty in regard to their economic feasibility.

 

 

The amount of amortization in regard to exploration assets was approximately NIS 29 million and is included in other expenses in the Company's statements of operations.
