This Form 8-K was filed by Save Foods, Inc., although the request metadata identifies Nexentis Technologies Inc.

Material Financial and Capital Markets Information
- Equity financing commitment: YA II PN, Ltd. agreed to purchase up to $20 million of Save Foods common stock over 36 months, subject to the agreement’s conditions and limitations.
- Pricing: Shares issued under the agreement are generally priced at 94% of the lowest volume-weighted average price during the three trading days following an advance notice.
- Advance limitations: Each advance is generally capped at the greater of 100% of the applicable recent daily traded amount or $500,000. The advance amount may be reduced by one-third for trading days below the company-specified minimum acceptable price or for days without an available VWAP.
- Ownership and exchange limits: The investor generally cannot exceed 4.99% beneficial ownership or acquire more than 19.99% of the company’s outstanding common stock as of the agreement date, subject to specified exceptions.
- Pre-advance facility: Subject to conditions, the company may request up to $3 million before share issuances. Each pre-advance is evidenced by a note, carries an 8% annual interest rate, and is subject to a 3% discount to principal.
- Repayment: The company must repay one-tenth of each outstanding note monthly, beginning 60 days after issuance, in cash, shares, or a combination. Share-sale proceeds generally are applied first to amounts due under outstanding notes.
- Fees and equity issued: The company paid a $10,000 structuring fee and issued 110,554 commitment shares to the investor.
- Operating metrics: The filing does not provide revenue, profit, cash flow, margin, balance-sheet, debt, or liquidity figures.
Material Changes, Outlook, Risks, and Unusual Items
- The equity purchase agreement may provide access to capital but could result in substantial dilution, particularly because pricing is linked to market prices and includes a discount.
- The company’s ability to draw funds is subject to advance limits, ownership restrictions, Nasdaq requirements, registration-related conditions, and other contractual conditions.
- The pre-advance notes create interest-bearing repayment obligations and may require the company to issue additional shares if it elects repayment in equity.
- The agreement terminates on the earlier of December 22, 2027 or the investor’s purchase of $20 million of shares. The company may terminate it with five trading days’ prior written notice.
- The shares and commitment shares were issued in an unregistered transaction relying on Securities Act Section 4(a)(2).
- On December 20, 2023, the board appointed Asaf Itzhaik as a Class II director through the 2026 annual meeting. He replaced Dr. Roy Borochov, who resigned December 15, 2023, and was designated by Plantify Foods, Inc. under a March 31, 2023 securities exchange agreement.
- The filing provides no financial guidance or operating outlook.
Important Facts for Investors to Verify
- Confirm the registrant’s identity: the filing names Save Foods, Inc., not Nexentis Technologies Inc.
- Review the complete Standby Equity Purchase Agreement and promissory note exhibits for funding conditions, default provisions, registration requirements, and dilution mechanics.
- Determine whether any pre-advance was requested or funded and identify the amount and repayment status of any notes.
- Track shares issued under the facility, the remaining $20 million commitment, and compliance with Nasdaq’s exchange-cap and minimum-price rules.
- Assess the company’s current cash position, operating cash burn, and ability to meet potential monthly note repayments; these figures are not included in this 8-K.
- Reconcile the report date, the December 22 agreement date, and the December 26 signature date.
