| December 31, | ||||||||
| 2025 | 2024 | |||||||
| USD in thousands | ||||||||
| Operating loss carryforward | 55,700 | 34,433 | ||||||
| Net deferred tax asset before valuation allowance | 12,791 | 7,991 | ||||||
| Valuation allowance | (12,791 | ) | (7,991 | ) | ||||
| Net deferred tax | ||||||||
| As of December 31, 2025, the Company has provided a full valuation allowance of $12,791 thousand in respect of deferred tax assets resulting from tax loss carryforwards and other temporary differences. Management currently believes that because the Company has a history of losses, it is more likely than not that the deferred tax regarding the loss carryforward and other temporary differences will not be realized in the foreseeable future. |

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 6 - INCOME TAXES (Continued):
| c. | Available carryforward tax losses: | |
| As of December 31, 2025, the Company has an accumulated tax loss carryforward of approximately $55,700 thousand. Carryforward tax losses in Israel are of unlimited duration. Under the Tax Cut and Jobs Act of 2017 (the “Tax Act”) (subject to modifications under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act), federal net operating losses (NOL) incurred in taxable years ending after December 31, 2017 and in future years may be carried forward indefinitely, but the deductibility of such federal net operating losses is limited. It is uncertain if and to what extent various states will conform to the newly enacted federal tax law. | ||
|
In addition, under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and corresponding provisions of state law, if a corporation undergoes an “ownership change,” which is generally defined as a greater than 50 percentage point change, by value, in its equity ownership over a three-year period, the corporation’s ability to use its pre-change NOL carryforwards and other pre-change tax attributes to offset its post-change income or taxes may be limited. Such limitations may result in the expiration of net operating losses before utilization. | |
| d. | The main reconciling item between the statutory tax rate of the Company and the effective tax rate is the recognition of valuation allowance in respect of deferred taxes relating to accumulated net operating losses carried forward due to the uncertainty of the realization of such deferred taxes. | |
| e. | The following table presents the reconciliation between the Company’s theoretical income tax and effective income tax for the year ended December 31, 2025 after the adoption of ASU 2023-09. The Company adopted ASU 2023-09 prospectively for the year ended December 31, 2025. |

About Income Taxes Disclosures
The income tax disclosure reveals how much a company actually pays in taxes versus what the statutory rate would predict. Analysts focus on the effective tax rate (ETR) reconciliation, which breaks down every item driving the gap between the 21% federal rate and the company's reported ETR — including R&D credits, foreign rate differentials, and state taxes. Deferred tax assets (DTAs) and their valuation allowances signal management's confidence in future profitability: a rising allowance suggests the company doubts it can use accumulated tax benefits. Uncertain tax benefit (UTB) reserves quantify exposure to IRS challenges on aggressive positions.
Key signals to watch: sudden ETR drops without clear operational reasons, large increases in valuation allowances, growing UTB balances, and significant unremitted foreign earnings. Post-TCJA, pay attention to GILTI and BEAT provisions that affect multinational tax structures. Compare the cash taxes paid (from the cash flow statement) against the income tax provision to gauge earnings quality.
