NOTES TO INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

 
a.
General:

 
1.
Oramed Pharmaceuticals Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated on April 12, 2002, under the laws of the State of Nevada. From incorporation until March 3, 2006, the Company was an exploration stage company engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties. On February 17, 2006, the Company entered into an agreement with Hadasit Medical Services and Development Ltd (the “First Agreement”) to acquire the provisional patent related to orally ingestible insulin pill to be used for the treatment of individuals with diabetes. The Company has been in the development stage since its formation and has not yet realized any revenues from its planned operations.

 
On May 14, 2007, the Company incorporated a wholly-owned subsidiary in Israel, Oramed Ltd., which is engaged in research and development. Unless the context indicates otherwise, the term “Group” refers to Oramed Pharmaceuticals Inc. and its Israeli subsidiary, Oramed Ltd (the “Subsidiary”).

 
On March 11, 2011, the Company was reincorporated from the State of Nevada to the State of Delaware.

 
The Group is engaged in research and development in the biotechnology field and is considered a development stage company in accordance with ASC Topic 915 “Development Stage Entities”.

 
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements as of May 31, 2011 and for the nine months then ended, have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States relating to the preparation of financial statements for interim periods. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required for annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The accounting principles applied in the preparation of the interim statements are consistent with those applied in the preparation of the annual financial statements; however,- the interim statements do not include all the information and explanations required for the annual financial statements. The condensed consolidated balance sheet data as of August 31, 2010 was derived from the Company’s audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles. For additional information, including the Company’s significant accounting policies, refer to the consolidated financial statements and related footnotes in the Company’s fiscal 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Operating results for the nine months ended May 31, 2011, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending August 31, 2011.

NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued):

 
2.
Going concern considerations
 
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has net losses for the period from inception (April 12, 2002) through May 31, 2011 of $13,774,259 as well as negative cash flow from operating activities. Presently, the Company does not have sufficient cash resources to meet its requirements in the twelve months following May 31, 2011. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management is in the process of evaluating various financing alternatives as the Company will need to finance future research and development activities and general and administrative expenses through fund raising in the public or private equity markets. Although there is no assurance that the Company will be successful with those initiatives, management believes that it will be able to secure the necessary financing as a result of ongoing financing discussions with third party investors and existing shareholders, as well as on going funding from the Office of the Chief Scientist of the Ministry of Industry, Trade and Labor of Israel ("OCS"). See also note 4 for Securities Purchase Agreements to which the Company entered through May 31, 2011.

These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that may be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company's continuation as a going concern is dependent on its ability to obtain additional financing as may be required and ultimately to attain profitability.

Newly issued and recently adopted Accounting Pronouncements

 
1.
In June 2009, the FASB updated accounting guidance relating to variable interest entities. As applicable to the Company, this became effective on September 1, 2010. As applicable to the Company, the adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
 
 
2.
In May 2011, the FASB issued an accounting update that amends ASC 820 - "Fair Value Measurement" regarding fair value measurements and disclosure requirements. The amendments are effective during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011 and are to be applied prospectively. The accounting update will be applicable to the Company beginning in the second third quarter of fiscal year 2012. The Company will update its fair value disclosures to comply with the updated disclosure requirements.
 
 
3.
In June 2011, the FASB issued an update to Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) No. 220, “Presentation of Comprehensive Income,” which eliminates the option to present other comprehensive income and its components in the statement of shareholders’ equity. The Company can elect to present the items of net income and other comprehensive income in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate, but consecutive, statements. Under either method the statement would need to be presented with equal prominence as the other primary financial statements. The amended guidance, which must be applied retroactively, is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011, with earlier adoption permitted.

NOTE 2 - AGREEMENT WITH D.N.A BIOMEDICAL SOLUTIONS LTD.

In June 2010, the Subsidiary entered into an agreement with D.N.A Biomedical Solutions Ltd ("D.N.A"), for the establishment of a new company, Entera Bio Ltd. ("Entera"), ("the JV Agreement").

According to the JV Agreement, D.N.A invested $600,000 in Entera, and Entera was owned in equal parts by the subsidiary and D.N.A. In consideration for 50% of Entera's shares, the Subsidiary entered into a Patent License Agreement with Entera, according to which, the Subsidiary out-licensed to Entera a technology for the development of oral delivery drugs for certain actions. Entera's Chief Executive Officer was granted options to purchase ordinary shares of Entera, reflecting 9.9% of Entera's share capital.

In the event that Entera has not obtained third-party financing by June 1, 2011, or such other date mutually agreed upon by the parties, each of the Subsidiary and D.N.A would be required to make a capital contribution to Entera in the amount of $150,000. As a result of our sale of 47% of Entera's outstanding share capital in March 2011, as described below, this capital contribution was not required to be made.

Mr. Zeev Bronfeld, who is one of D.N.A 's directors controlling shareholders, is also an affiliated shareholder of the Company.
 
The Group has concluded Entera is a variable interest entity (a "VIE"), according to the terms of the JV Agreement. As further discussed in Note 1 to the annual financial statements, a new accounting standard which became effective  as applicable to the Company, on September 1,2010  related to accounting for and consolidation of VIEs. According to  this standard, the Group reviewed several factors to determine whether the Company is the primary beneficiary of Entera, including an assessment whether the Group  including its related parties and defacto agents )has the power to direct the activities of Entera that most significantly impact Entera's economic performance and has the obligation to absorb losses of Entera that could potentially be significant to Entera; or the right to receive benefits from Entera that could potentially be significant to Entera). Based on those factors, the Group determined that it was not the primary beneficiary of Entera.  Until March 31, 2011, the Group recognized its share of losses from this entity under the equity method, offset with a corresponding amount of revenue recognition on the out-license agreement.

NOTE 2 - AGREEMENT WITH D.N.A BIOMEDICAL SOLUTIONS LTD. (continued):
 
On February 22, 2011, the Subsidiary entered into a share purchase agreement with D.N.A for the sale of 47% of Entera's outstanding share capital on an undiluted basis. The closing of that transaction took place on March 31, 2011. As consideration for the Entera shares, the Subsidiary received a promissory note issued by D.N.A in the principal amount of $450,000, with an annual interest rate of 0.45%, to be paid within four months from closing, and 8,404,667 ordinary shares of D.N.A (the "D.N.A Shares"), having a fair value of $581,977 as of the closing date of the transaction. The D.N.A Shares are listed on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange ("TASE") and their tradability is restricted for a period of 6 months from the closing date of the transaction according to TASE policy with regards to private placements. As a result, such fair value of the D.N.A. Shares at the closing date reflects a discount on the quoted price. The promissory note is secured by a personal guarantee of the D.N.A majority shareholders.
 
D.N.A.'s securities are classified as available-for-sale and reported at fair value with unrealized gains and losses, net of related tax, recorded as a separate component of other comprehensive income in equity until realized. Unrealized losses that are considered to be other-than-temporary are charged to statement of operations as an impairment charge and are included in the consolidated statement of operations under financial expenses. Realized gains and losses on sales of the securities are included in the consolidated statement of operations as financial income or expenses.
 
In addition, on closing date, D.N.A participated in the Company's private placement, at same investment terms granted to other investors at that period, for which it received 781,250 shares of our common stock and five-year warrants to purchase 273,438 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.50 per share for $250,000.
 
As part of the transaction, the Subsidiary entered into a patent transfer agreement (that replaced the original license agreement) according to which, the Subsidiary assigned to Entera all of its right, title and interest in and to the patent application that it has licensed to Entera since August 2010.  Under this agreement, the Subsidiary is entitled to receive from Entera royalties of 3% of Entera's net revenues (as defined in the agreement) and a license back of that patent application for use in respect of diabetes and influenza.
 
Upon the closing, Oramed, Entera and D.N.A terminated the joint venture agreement, as amended, entered into on June 1, 2010 in connection with the formation of Entera.
 
The Subsidiary recognized a gain on sale of investment of $1,033,004 from the transaction.
 
As a result of the above transaction, the Company no longer has the ability to exert significant influence over Entera and the remaining 3% interest is accounted for as a cost method investment.

NOTE 7 - FAIR VALUE:
 
The Company measures fair value and discloses fair value measurements for financial assets. 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 prices 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.

In determining fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent.

Marketable securities consist of equity securities classified as available-for-sale and are recorded at fair value.  The fair value of the restricted securities is measured based on the quoted prices of the otherwise identical unrestricted securities, adjusted for the effect of the restriction by applying a proper discount. The discount was determined with reference to other similar restricted instruments. Similar securities, with no restriction on tradability, are quoted on an active market.
 
The following table summarizes the activity for those financial assets where fair value measurements are estimated utilizing Level 3 inputs:

Oramed was incorporated on April 12, 2002, in the State of Nevada under the name Iguana Ventures Ltd. Following the incorporation, the Company was an exploration stage company engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties. The Company was unsuccessful in implementing its business plan as a mineral exploration company. Accordingly, the Company decided to change the focus of its business by completing a share exchange with the shareholders of Integrated Security Technologies, Inc., a New Jersey private corporation (“ISTI”). On June 4, 2004, the Company changed its name to Integrated Security Technologies, Inc. by filing a Certificate of Amendment with the Nevada Secretary of State.  Effective June 14, 2004 the Company effected a 3.3:1 forward stock split, increasing the amount of authorized capital to 200,000,000 shares of common stock with the par value of $0.001 per share.  However, due to disappointing results of ISTI, on May 31, 2005, effective as of May 27, 2004 the Company terminated the share exchange agreement with the shareholders of ISTI.
 
On February 17, 2006, we executed an agreement with Hadasit Medical Services and Development Ltd. (“Hadasit”) to acquire provisional patent application No. 60/718716 and related intellectual property.  The provisional patent application No. 60/718716 relates to a method of preparing insulin so that it may be taken orally to be used in the treatment of individuals with diabetes.  On April 10, 2006, we changed our name from Integrated Security Technologies, Inc. to Oramed Pharmaceuticals Inc.  On August 31, 2006, based on provisional patent application No. 60/718716, we filed a patent application under the Patent Cooperation Treaty at the Israel Patent Office for “Methods and Compositions for Oral Administration of Proteins.”
 
On March 11, 2011, Oramed was reincorporated from the State of Nevada to the State of Delaware.

On December 23, 2010, our wholly owned Israeli subsidiary, Oramed Ltd., was awarded a government grant amounting to a total net amount of NIS 2.9 million (approximately $807,000), from the Office of the Chief Scientist of the Ministry of Industry, Trade and Labor of Israel (the "OCS"), which was designated for research and development expenses for the period of July 2010 to June 2011.  Oramed Ltd. plans to use the funds to support further research and development and clinical study of its oral insulin capsule and Oral GLP1-analog. On June 1, 2010, our subsidiary, Oramed Ltd., entered into a joint venture agreement with D.N.A Biomedical Solutions Ltd. (formerly Laser Detect Systems Ltd), an Israeli company listed on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange ("D.N.A"), for the establishment of a new company to be called Entera Bio Ltd. ("Entera"). Under the terms of a license agreement that was entered into between Oramed and Entera in August 2010, we out-licensed technology to Entera, on an exclusive basis, for the development of oral delivery drugs for certain indications to be agreed upon between the parties.  The out-licensed technology differs from our main delivery technology that is used for oral insulin and GLP 1 Analog and is subject to different patent applications. Entera's initial development effort is for an oral formulation for the treatment of osteoporosis.
 
On March 31, 2011, we consummated a transaction with D.N.A, whereby we sold to D.N.A 47% of Entera's outstanding share capital on an undiluted basis. As consideration for the Entera shares, we received a promissory note issued by D.N.A in the principal amount of $450,000, with an annual interest rate of 0.45%, to be paid within four months from closing, and 8,404,667 ordinary shares of D.N.A, having an aggregate market value of approximately $700,000 (at the closing date – a discounted value of $581,977).  The promissory note is secured by a personal guarantee of the D.N.A majority shareholders. In addition, D.N.A invested $250,000 in our private placement investment round, for which it received 781,250 shares of our common stock and five-year warrants to purchase 273,438 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.50 per share.

As part of the transaction, we entered into a patent transfer agreement (to replace the original license agreement) according to which, Oramed assigned to Entera all of its right, title and interest in and to the patent application that it had licensed to Entera since August 2010.  Under this agreement, Oramed Ltd. is entitled to receive from Entera royalties of 3% of Entera's net revenues (as defined in the agreement) and a license back of that patent application for use in respect of diabetes and influenza.
 
In March, 2011, we completed a private placement that commenced in November 2010, with a number of accredited investors pursuant to which we agreed to sell to the investors an aggregate of 10,487,500 units at a purchase price of $0.32 per unit for total consideration of $3,356,000. Each unit consisted of one share of common stock and a five-year warrant to purchase 0.35 of a share of common stock at an exercise price of $0.50 per share. We also issued 196,750 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase 70,863 shares of common stock as finders' fees in connection with the private placement. These amounts include the $250,000 investment by D.N.A.
 
In April 2011, we completed a private placement with a number of accredited investors pursuant to which we agreed to sell to the investors an aggregate of 1,124,375 units at a purchase price of $0.32 per unit for total consideration of $359,800.  Each unit consisted of one share of common stock and a five-year warrant to purchase 0.35 of a share of common stock at an exercise price of $0.50 per share.
 
Short Term Business Strategy
 
We plan to conduct further research and development on the technology covered by the patent application "Methods and Composition for Oral Administration of Proteins", which we acquired from Hadasit, as well as the other patents we have filed since.  Through our research and development efforts, we are seeking to develop an oral dosage form that will withstand the harsh chemical environment of the stomach or intestines and will be effective in delivering active insulin for the treatment of diabetes. The enzymes and vehicles that are added to the insulin in the formulation process must not modify chemically or biologically the insulin and the dosage form must be safe to ingest. We plan to continue to conduct clinical trials to show the effectiveness of our technology.  We intend to conduct the clinical trials necessary to file an Investigational New Drug (“IND”) application with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”). Additional clinical trials are planned in other countries such as Israel, India and South Africa, in order to substantiate our results as well as for purposes of making future filings for drug approval in these countries. We also plan to conduct further research and development by deploying our proprietary drug delivery technology for the delivery of other polypeptides in addition to insulin, and to develop other innovative pharmaceutical products, including an insulin suppository and use of rectal application for delivery of other polypeptides.
 
Long Term Business Strategy
 
If our oral insulin capsule or other drug delivery solutions show significant promise in clinical trials, we plan to ultimately seek a strategic commercial partner, or partners, with extensive experience in the development, commercialization, and marketing of insulin applications and/or other orally digestible drugs. We anticipate such partner or partners would be responsible for, or substantially support, late stage clinical trials (Phase III) to ensure regulatory approvals and registrations in the appropriate markets in a timely manner. We further anticipate that such partner, or partners, would also be responsible for sales and marketing of our oral insulin capsule in these markets. Such planned strategic partnership, or partnerships, may provide a marketing and sales infrastructure for our products as well as financial and operational support for global clinical trials, post marketing studies, label expansions and other regulatory requirements concerning future clinical development in the United States and elsewhere. Any future strategic partner, or partners, may also provide capital and expertise that would enable the partnership to develop new oral dosage form for other polypeptides. While our strategy is to partner with an appropriate party, no assurance can be given that any third party would be interested in partnering with us. Under certain circumstances, we may determine to develop one or more of our oral dosage form on our own, either world-wide or in select territories.
 
 
19

 
 
Other Planned Strategic Activities
 
In addition to developing our own oral dosage form drug portfolio, we are, on an on-going basis, considering in-licensing and other means of obtaining additional technologies to complement and/or expand our current product portfolio. Our goal is to create a well-balanced product portfolio that will enhance and complement our existing drug portfolio.
 
Product Development
 
Orally Ingestible Insulin: During fiscal year 2007 we conducted several clinical studies of our orally ingestible insulin. The studies were intended to assess both the safety/tolerability and absorption properties of our proprietary oral insulin. Based on the pharmacokinetic and pharmacologic outcomes of these trials, we decided to continue the development of our oral insulin product.
 
On November 15, 2007, we successfully completed animal studies in preparation for the Phase 1B clinical trial of our oral insulin capsule (ORMD0801).  On January 22, 2008, we commenced non-FDA approved Phase 1B clinical trials with our oral insulin capsule, in healthy human volunteers with the intent of dose optimization.  On March 11, 2008, we successfully completed our Phase 1B clinical trials.
 
On April 13, 2008, we commenced a non-FDA approved Phase 2A study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of our oral insulin capsule (ORMD0801) in type 2 diabetic volunteers at Hadassah Medical Center in Jerusalem. On August 6, 2008, we announced the successful results of this trial.
 
In July 2008 we were granted approval by the Institutional Review Board Committee of Hadassah Medical Center in Jerusalem to conduct a non-FDA approved Phase 2A study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of our oral insulin capsule (ORMD0801) on type 1 diabetic volunteers. On September 24, 2008, we announced the beginning of this trial. On July 21, 2009 we reported positive results from this trial. On September 14, 2010, we reported the successful results of an exploratory clinical trial testing the effectiveness of our oral insulin capsule (ORMD0801) in type 1 diabetes patients suffering from uncontrolled diabetes.  Unstable or labile diabetes is characterized by recurrent, unpredictable and dramatic blood glucose swings often linked with irregular hyperglycemia and sometimes serious hypoglycemia affecting type 1 diabetes patients.  This newly completed exploratory study was a proof of concept study for defining a novel indication for ORMD0801. The encouraging results justify further clinical development of ORMD0801 capsule application toward management of uncontrolled diabetes.   
 
 
20

 
 
On April 21, 2009, we entered into a consulting service agreement with ADRES Advanced Regulatory Services Ltd. (“ADRES”), pursuant to which ADRES will provide services for the purpose of filing an IND application with the FDA for a Phase 2 study according to the FDA requirements. The FDA approval process and, if approved, registration for commercial use as an oral drug can take several years.
 
In May 2009, we commenced a non-FDA approved Phase 2B study in South Africa to evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of our oral insulin capsule (ORMD0801) on type 2 diabetic volunteers. On May 6, 2010, we reported that the capsule was found to be well tolerated and exhibited a positive safety profile. No cumulative adverse effects were reported throughout this first study of extended exposure to the capsule. We are considering whether and when to conduct an additional non-FDA approved Phase 2B study in India.
 
On February 10, 2010, we entered into agreements with Vetgenerics Research G. Ziv Ltd., a clinical research organization (CRO), to conduct a toxicology trial on our oral insulin capsules.
 
GLP-1 Analog:
 
On September 16, 2008 we announced the launch of pre-clinical trials of ORMD 0901, a GLP-1 analog.  The pre-clinical trials include animal studies which suggest that the GLP-1 analog (exenatide -4) when combined with Oramed’s absorption promoters is absorbed through the gastrointestinal tract and retains its biological activity.
 
On September 9, 2009, we received approval from the Institutional Review Board (IRB) in Israel to commence human clinical trials of an oral GLP-1 analog. The approval was granted after successful pre-clinical results were reported. The trials are being conducted on healthy volunteers at Hadassah University Medical Center in Jerusalem. We anticipate that the results of these trials will be released in the near future.
 
Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is an incretin hormone - a type of gastrointestinal hormone that stimulates the secretion of insulin from the pancreas. The incretin concept was hypothesized when it was noted surprisingly that glucose ingested by mouth (oral) stimulated two to three times more insulin release than the same amount of glucose administered intravenously. In addition to stimulating insulin release, GLP-1 was found to suppress glucagon release (hormone involved in regulation of glucose) from the pancreas, slow gastric emptying to reduce the rate of absorption of nutrients into the blood stream, and increase satiety. Other important beneficial attributes of GLP-1 are its effects of increasing the number of beta cells (cells that manufacture and release insulin) in the pancreas and, possibly, protection of the heart.
 
Raw Materials:
 
Our oral insulin capsule is currently manufactured by Swiss Caps AG, under a Clinical Trail Manufacturing Agreement.
 
On July 5, 2010, our subsidiary entered into a Manufacturing Supply Agreement ("MSA") with Sanofi-Aventis Deutschland GMBH ("sanofi-aventis"). According to the MSA, sanofi-aventis will supply our subsidiary with specified quantities of recombinant human insulin to be used for clinical trials in the USA.
 
 
21

 
 
The raw materials required for the manufacturing of the capsule are purchased from third parties, under separate agreements.   We generally depend upon a limited number of suppliers for the raw materials.  Although alternative sources of supply for these materials are generally available, we could incur significant costs and disruptions in changing suppliers.  The termination of our relationships with our suppliers or the failure of these suppliers to meet our requirements for raw materials on a timely and cost-effective basis could materially adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
 
Patents and Licenses
 
We maintain a proactive intellectual property strategy which includes patent filings in multiple jurisdictions, including the United States and other commercially significant markets. We hold 34 patent applications currently pending with respect to various compositions, methods of production oral administration of proteins and exenatide. Expiration dates for pending patents will in 2026 – 2028.
 
Consistent with our strategy to seek protection in key markets worldwide, we have been and will continue to pursue the patent applications and corresponding foreign counterparts of such applications.  We believe that our success will depend on our ability to obtain patent protection for our intellectual property.
 
Our patent strategy is as follows:
 
·
Aggressively protect all current and future technological developments to assure strong and broad protection by filing patents and/or continuations in part as appropriate;
 
·
Protect technological developments at various levels, in a complementary manner, including the base technology, as well as specific applications of the technology; and
 
·
Establish comprehensive coverage in the U.S. and in all relevant foreign markets in anticipation of future commercialization opportunities.
 
The validity, enforceability, written supports, and breadth of claims in our patent applications involve complex legal and factual questions and, therefore, may be highly uncertain. No assurance can be given that any patents based on pending patent applications or any future patent applications filed by us will be issued, that the scope of any patent protection will exclude competitors or provide competitive advantages to us, that any of the patents that have been or may be issued to us will be held valid or enforceable if subsequently challenged, or that others will not claim rights in or ownership of the patents and other proprietary rights held or licensed by us. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that others have not developed or will not develop similar products, duplicate any of our technology or design around any patents that have been or may be issued to us. Since patent applications in the United States are maintained in secrecy for the initial period of time following filing, we also cannot be certain that others did not first file applications for inventions covered by our pending patent applications, nor can we be certain that we will not infringe any patents that may be issued to others on such applications.
 
 
22

 
 
We also rely on trade secrets and unpatentable know-how that we seek to protect, in part, by confidentiality agreements. Our policy is to require our employees, consultants, contractors, manufacturers, outside scientific collaborators and sponsored researchers, board of directors, technical review board and other advisors to execute confidentiality agreements upon the commencement of employment or consulting relationships with us. These agreements provide that all confidential information developed or made known to the individual during the course of the individual's relationship with us is to be kept confidential and not disclosed to third parties except in specific limited circumstances. We also require signed confidentiality or material transfer agreements from any company that is to receive our confidential information. In the case of employees, consultants and contractors, the agreements provide that all inventions conceived by the individual while rendering services to us shall be assigned to us as the exclusive property of our company. There can be no assurance, however, that all persons who we desire to sign such agreements will sign, or if they do, that these agreements will not be breached, that we would have adequate remedies for any breach, or that our trade secrets or unpatentable know-how will not otherwise become known or be independently developed by competitors.
 
Our success will also depend in part on our ability to commercialize our technology without infringing the proprietary rights of others. No assurance can be given that patents do not exist or could not be filed which would have an adverse affect on our ability to market our technology or maintain our competitive position with respect to our technology. If our technology components, products, processes or other subject matter are claimed under other existing United States or foreign patents or are otherwise protected by third party proprietary rights, we may be subject to infringement actions. In such event, we may challenge the validity of such patents or other proprietary rights or we may be required to obtain licenses from such companies in order to develop, manufacture or market our technology. There can be no assurances that we would be able to obtain such licenses or that such licenses, if available, could be obtained on commercially reasonable terms. Furthermore, the failure to either develop a commercially viable alternative or obtain such licenses could result in delays in marketing our proposed technology or the inability to proceed with the development, manufacture or sale of products requiring such licenses, which could have a material adverse affect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. If we are required to defend ourselves against charges of patent infringement or to protect our proprietary rights against third parties, substantial costs will be incurred regardless of whether we are successful. Such proceedings are typically protracted with no certainty of success. An adverse outcome could subject us to significant liabilities to third parties and force us to curtail or cease our development and commercialization of our technology.
 
Partnerships and Collaborative Arrangements
 
We believe that working together with strategic partners will expedite product formulation, production and approval.
 
On February 17, 2006, we entered into an agreement with Hadasit to provide consulting and clinical trial services.
 
On October 30, 2006, we entered into a Clinical Trial Manufacturing Agreement with Swiss Caps AG (“Swiss”), pursuant to which Swiss currently manufactures the oral insulin capsule developed by us.
 
During April 2008, we entered into a five year master services agreement with SAFC, an operating division of Sigma-Aldrich, Inc., pursuant to which SAFC is providing services for individual projects, which may include strategic planning, expert consultation, clinical trial services, statistical programming and analysis, data processing, data management, regulatory, clerical, project management, central laboratory services, pre-clinical services, pharmaceutical sciences services, and other research and development services.
 
 
23

 
 
On April 21, 2009, we entered into a consulting service agreement with ADRES, pursuant to which ADRES will provide services for the purpose of filing an IND application with the FDA for a Phase 2 study in accordance with FDA requirements. The FDA approval process and, if approved, registration for commercial use as an oral drug can take several years.
 
On July 8, 2009 we entered into an additional agreement with Hadasit, to facilitate additional clinical trials to be performed at Hadassah Medical Center in Jerusalem.
 
On February 10, 2010, we entered into agreements with Vetgenerics Research G. Ziv Ltd., a clinical research organization (CRO), to conduct a toxicology trial on our oral insulin capsules.
 
On May 2, 2010, we entered into an additional agreement with SAFC Pharma, a division of the Sigma-Aldrich Corporation, to develop a process to produce one of our oral capsule ingredients.
 
As mentioned above, on July 5, 2010, our subsidiary entered into an MSA with sanofi-aventis. According to the MSA, sanofi-aventis will supply our subsidiary with specified quantities of recombinant human insulin to be used for clinical trials in the USA.
 
Results of Operations
 
Going concern assumption
 
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern. We have net losses for the period from inception (April 12, 2002) through May 31, 2011 of $13,774,259, as well as negative cash flow from operating activities. Based upon our existing spending commitments, estimated at $5.3 million for the twelve months following June 1, 2011, and our cash availability, we do not have sufficient cash resources to meet our liquidity requirements through May 31, 2011. Accordingly, these factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Management is in the process of evaluating various financing alternatives as we will need to finance future research and development activities and general and administrative expenses through fund raising in the public or private equity markets. Although there is no assurance that we will be successful with those initiatives, management believes that it will be able to secure the necessary financing as a result of ongoing financing discussions with third party investors and existing shareholders.
 
The financial statements do not include any adjustments that may be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern. Our continuation as a going concern is dependent on our ability to obtain additional financing as may be required and ultimately to attain profitability.
 
Critical accounting policies
 
Our significant accounting policies are more fully described in Note 1 to our consolidated financial statements appearing at the beginning of this Quarterly Report. We believe that the accounting policies below are critical for one to fully understand and evaluate our financial condition and results of operations.
 
 
24

 
 
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements, which we prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate such estimates and judgments. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
 
Valuation of options and warrants: We granted options to purchase shares of our common stock to employees and consultants and issued warrants in connection with fund raising.
 
We account for share based payments in accordance with the guidance that requires awards classified as equity awards be accounted for using the grant-date fair value method. The fair value of share-based payment transactions is recognized as an expense over the requisite service period, net of estimated forfeitures. We estimated forfeitures based on historical experience and anticipated future conditions.
 
We elected to recognize compensation cost for an award with only service conditions that has a graded vesting schedule using the accelerated method based on the multiple-option award approach.
 
When stock options are granted as consideration for services provided by consultants and other non-employees, the transaction is accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the stock options issued, whichever is more reliably measurable, pursuant to the guidance. The fair value of the options granted is measured on a final basis at the end of the related service period and is recognized over the related service period using the straight-line method.
 
Taxes on income: Deferred taxes are determined utilizing the asset and liability method based on the estimated future tax effects of differences between the financial accounting and tax bases of assets and liabilities under the applicable tax laws. Deferred tax balances are computed using the tax rates expected to be in effect when those differences reverse. A valuation allowance in respect of deferred tax assets is provided if, based upon the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. We have provided a full valuation allowance with respect to its deferred tax assets.
 
Regarding our subsidiary, Oramed Ltd., the guidance prohibits the recognition of deferred tax liabilities or assets that arise from differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities that are measured from the local currency into dollars using historical exchange rates, and that result from changes in exchange rates or indexing for tax purposes. Consequently, the abovementioned differences were not reflected in the computation of deferred tax assets and liabilities.

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, payroll taxes, employee benefits, costs of registered patents materials, supplies, the cost of services provided by outside contractors, including services related to our clinical trials, clinical trial expenses, the full cost of manufacturing drug for use in research, preclinical development. All costs associated with research and development are expensed as incurred.
 
Clinical trial costs are a significant component of research and development expenses and include costs associated with third-party contractors. We outsource a substantial portion of our clinical trial activities, utilizing external entities such as contract research organizations, independent clinical investigators, and other third-party service providers to assist us with the execution of our clinical studies. For each clinical trial that we conduct, certain clinical trial costs are expensed immediately, while others are expensed over time based on the expected total number of patients in the trial, the rate at which patients enter the trial, and the period over which clinical investigators or contract research organizations are expected to provide services.
 
Clinical activities which relate principally to clinical sites and other administrative functions to manage our clinical trials are performed primarily by contract research organizations ("CROs"). CROs typically perform most of the start-up activities for our trials, including document preparation, site identification, screening and preparation, pre-study visits, training, and program management.
 
 
26

 
 
Clinical trial and pre-clinical trial expenses include regulatory and scientific consultants’ compensation and fees, research expenses, purchase of materials, cost of manufacturing of the oral insulin capsules, payments for patient recruitment and treatment, costs related to the maintenance of our registered patents, costs related to the filings of patent applications, as well as salaries and related expenses of research and development staff.
 
In August 2009, Oramed Ltd., our wholly owned Israeli subsidiary, was awarded a government grant amounting to a total net amount of NIS 3.1 million (approximately $813,000), from the Office of the Chief Scientist of the Ministry of Industry, Trade and Labor of Israel (the "OCS"), which the OCS designated for research and development expenses for the period of February 2009 to June 2010.  The funds were used by Oramed Ltd. to support further research and development and clinical study of its oral insulin capsule and Oral GLP1-analog. In December 2010, Oramed Ltd., was awarded another grant amounting to a total net amount of NIS 2.9 million (approximately $807,000) from the OCS, which was designated for research and development expenses for the period of July 2010 to June 2011.  Oramed Ltd. plans to use the funds to support further research and development and clinical study of its oral insulin capsule and Oral GLP1-analog.  Our grants from the OCS are subject to repayment according to the terms determined by the OCS and applicable law.  See "Item 7 – Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Government Grants" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended August 31, 2010, and filed with the SEC on November 29, 2010.
 
During the nine months ended May 31, 2011, research and development expenses totaled $869,166, compared to $871,285 for the nine months ended May 31, 2010. The minor decrease is mainly attributable to a decrease in payroll and consulting fees. The research and development costs include stock based compensation costs, which during the nine months ended May 31, 2011 totaled $210,847, as compared to $212,385 during the nine months ended May 31, 2010.
 
The decrease in research and development expenses during the three months ended May 31, 2011 as compared to the three months ended May 31, 2010 is mainly attributed to a decrease in stock based compensation costs.
 
Government Grants
 
In the nine and three months ended May 31, 2011, we recognized research and development grants in an amount of $277,642 and $68,968, respectively. As of May 31, 2011, we had no contingent liabilities to the OCS.
 
General and administrative expenses
 
General and administrative expenses include the salaries and related expenses of our management, consulting costs, legal and professional fees, traveling, business development costs, insurance expenses and other general costs.
 
For the nine months ended May 31, 2011, general and administrative expenses totaled $971,143, compared to $944,074 for the nine months ended May 31, 2010. Costs incurred related to general and administrative activities during the nine months ended May 31, 2011, reflect an increase in professional fee expenses which was partly offset by a decrease in stock based compensation costs. During the nine months ended May 31, 2011, as part of our general and administrative expenses, we incurred $225,899 related to stock options granted to employees and consultants, as compared to $319,943 during the nine months ended May 31, 2010.
 
 
27

 
 
The decrease in general and administrative expenses during the three months ended May 31, 2011, as compared to the three months ended May 31, 2010, is attributable to a decrease in stock based compensation costs.
 
Financial income/expense, net
 
During the nine months ended May 31, 2011 and 2010, we generated interest income on available cash and cash equivalents and on short term bank deposits which was offset by bank charges and imputed interest.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
Since inception through May 31, 2011, we incurred losses in an aggregate amount of $13,774,259. Since inception through May 31, 2011, we have financed our operations through the private placements of equity and debt financings, raising a total of $11,655,693, net of transaction costs. We will seek to obtain additional financing through similar sources. As of May 31, 2011, we had $1,920,132 of available cash as well as $1,795,765 in short term interest bearing investments. We anticipate that we will require approximately $5.3 million to finance our activities during the twelve months following June 1, 2011.
 
Management is in the process of evaluating various financing alternatives as we will need to finance future research and development activities and general and administrative expenses through fund raising in the public or private equity markets. Although there is no assurance that we will be successful with those initiatives, management believes that it will be able to secure the necessary financing as a result of ongoing financing discussions with third party investors and existing shareholders as well as receive additional funding from the OCS.
 
Our financing activity during the nine months ended May 31, 2011, included the following:
 
 
·

As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to provide the information required by this Item.
 
ITEM 4 - CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
 
(a)   Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
Our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of May 31, 2011. Based on such review, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have determined that in light of their conclusion with respect to the effectiveness of our internal control over our financial reporting as of such date, that the Company did not have in place effective controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure, and is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms.
 
 (c)   Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
 
ITEM 1 - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
 
From time to time we may become subject to litigation incidental to our business. We are not currently a party to any material legal proceedings.
ITEM 1A – RISK FACTORS
 
An investment in our securities involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risk factors described below, together with the more comprehensive list of risk factors contained in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended August 31, 2010, as filed with the SEC on November 29, 2010 and in our other filings with the SEC, before making an investment decision. Our business, prospects, financial condition, and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected as a result of such risks. The value of our securities could decline as a result of any of such risks.  You could lose all or part of your investment in our securities. Some of the statements made in the Risk Factors set forth below and in our annual report are forward looking statements.
 
There is substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern.
 
Our financial statements were prepared on the assumption that we will continue as a going concern. We estimate that our cash reserves will not be sufficient to permit us to continue at our anticipated level of operations for our fiscal year ending August 31, 2011. During 2011, we plan to increase research and development, product development, and administrative expenses relating to our business, including expenses related to research and development related to our oral delivery platform. We intend to use our cash reserves, as well as other funds in the event that they shall become available on commercially reasonable terms, to finance these and other activities, although we can provide no assurance that these additional funds will be available in the amounts or at the times we may require. If sufficient capital is not available, we would likely be required to scale back or terminate our research and development efforts.  See “Risk Factors — We will need substantial additional capital in order to satisfy our business objectives.
 
We will need substantial additional capital in order to satisfy our business objectives.
 
To date, we have financed our operations principally through offerings of securities exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. We believe that our available resources and cash flow will be sufficient to meet our anticipated working capital needs for a minimum of six months from the date hereof. We estimate that we will require substantial additional financing at various intervals in order to continue our research and development programs, including significant requirements for operating expenses including intellectual property protection and enforcement, for pursuit of regulatory approvals, and for commercialization of our products. We can provide no assurance that additional funding will be available on a timely basis, on terms acceptable to us, or at all.  In the event that we are unable to obtain such financing, we will not be able to fully develop and commercialize our technology. Our future capital requirements will depend upon many factors, including:
 
 
· 
continued scientific progress in our research and development programs;
 
 
32

 
 
 
· 
costs and timing of conducting clinical trials and seeking regulatory approvals and patent prosecutions;
 
 
· 
competing technological and market developments;
 
 
· 
our ability to establish additional collaborative relationships; and
 
 
· 
effects of commercialization activities and facility expansions if and as required.
 
If we cannot secure adequate financing when needed, we may be required to delay, scale back or eliminate one or more of our research and development programs or to enter into license or other arrangements with third parties to commercialize products or technologies that we would otherwise seek to develop ourselves and commercialize ourselves. In such event, our business, prospects, financial condition, and results of operations may be adversely affected as we may be required to scale-back, eliminate, or delay development efforts or product introductions or enter into royalty, sales or other agreements with third parties in order to commercialize our products.
 
ITEM 2 – UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
 
(a)  
On September 11, 2010 and January 11, 2011, we issued 353,714 shares of our common stock, valued at $119,800, in the aggregate, to Swiss Caps AG as remuneration for services rendered. These transactions were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).  The issuances were not public offerings within the meaning of Section 4(2) of the Securities Act, and were therefore deemed exempt from registration.  There were no underwriting fees or commissions associated with these transactions.

These amounts include the $250,000 investment by D.N.A made in connection with our technology transaction on March 31, 2011.
 
(c)  
On March 31, 2011, we consummated a securities purchase agreement with D.N.A for the sale of 781,250 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase up to 273,438 shares of common stock, for a total purchase price of $250,000 in cash.  The shares and warrants were sold in units at a price per unit of $0.32, each unit consisting of one share of common stock and a warrant to purchase 0.35 of a share of common stock. The warrants have an exercise price of $0.50 per share, subject to adjustment, and a term of five years commencing from the closing of the transaction.  D.N.A's $250,000 investment in Oramed is included in the private placement described in the immediately preceding paragraph.
