Oded Bashan, Chairman and CEO of OTI, commented: “our nine months results are in line with our expectations, as previously communicated.”
 
Mr. Bashan continued: “the actions of the dissident shareholders are causing major disruption in running our day to day operations. This situation hurts all of our stakeholders.”

Adoption of IFRS
Effective as of January 1, 2012, OTI adopted International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as published by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”), replacing the previous reporting standard of U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“US GAAP”).  The comparative information for the first nine months of 2011 and as of December 31, 2011 provided herein has been restated to reflect the retrospective application of IFRS from the beginning of 2011.  An explanation of how the transition from US GAAP to IFRS has affected OTI’s financial results is set out in the Appendix attached hereto.

Use of Non-IFRS Financial Information
This press release contains certain non-IFRS measures, namely, Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Income Tax, Depreciation and Amortization ("Adjusted EBITDA”).
 
Adjusted EBITDA represents earnings before interest1, income tax, depreciation and amortization, and further eliminates the effect of share-based compensation expense.
 
OTI believes that Adjusted EBITDA should be considered in evaluating the Company's operations since they provide a clearer indication of OTI’s operating results.
 
This measure should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with IFRS, but should not be considered a substitute for the IFRS results. The non-IFRS measures included in this press release have been reconciled to the IFRS results in the tables below.

Notes to tables - adjustments relate to the effect of transition to reporting under IFRS:

A.
Employee benefits

Under US GAAP, the liability for severance pays for employees’ rights upon retirement was measured in accordance with the "Shut Down Method" at each balance sheet date, and the amount funded for severance pay that has been accumulated for this liability is measured based on redemption values at each balance sheet date. In addition, under US GAAP, amounts funded with severance pay funds were presented as long term investments. Under IFRS, the liability for employee benefits upon retirement is computed under the provisions of IAS 19 Employee benefits (hereafter – IAS 19). The liability for employee benefits upon retirement is measured on an actuarial basis, and takes into account, among other things, future salary raises and turnover.
 
The actuarial calculations were performed by an external expert.
 
In addition, the amount funded is measured at its fair value. The said amounts funded comprise “plan assets” as defined in IAS 19, and hence, were set off from the liability for employee benefits upon retirement for the purpose of the statement of financial position presentation.
 
 
 

 
 
As a result, the liability for employee benefits, before deduction of the fair value of plan assets, increased as of December 31, 2011, by $1.0 million and funds in respect of employee benefits in amounts of $1.5 million were set off against the liability for employee’s benefits as of December 31, 2011.
 
The Company elected as its accounting policy to recognize actuarial gains (losses) arising from the valuation of the plan, according to IAS 19, on a current basis to other comprehensive income (loss) and as result actuarial gains in the amounts of $192,000 for the period of nine months period ended September 30, 2011 were charged to equity.
 
Finance income in the amounts of $70,000 for the nine months period ended September 30, 2011 were charged to the statements of operations. Cost of sales increased by $52,000 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011. Research and development expenses increased by $98,000 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011. Selling and marketing expenses decreased by $146,000 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011. General and administrative expenses increased by $15,000 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011.
 
B.
Intangible assets

Under US GAAP, the Company expensed costs relating to research and development activities as incurred. Under IFRS costs relating to research activities are expensed as incurred. Costs relating to development activities should be capitalized if an entity can demonstrate that it has satisfied all of the conditions in IAS 38 Intangible assets (hereafter – IAS 38) for capitalization. Furthermore, IAS 38 does not permit the use of hindsight. In order to comply with the provisions of IAS 38 and to avoid retrospective reconstruction of internally generated intangible assets, the Company examined whether costs relating to development activity are eligible to capitalization only with respect to development costs that incurred after January 1, 2011. As a result the Company recognized intangible development assets in the amount of $1.3 million as of December 31, 2011.  For the nine month period ended September 30, 2011 development expenses in the amount of $924,000 were capitalized.

C.
Share-based payment transaction

The company granted to its employees awards with only service conditions that have a graded vesting schedule. Under US GAAP the Company's accounting policy with respect to the recognition of compensation costs for its awards was to recognize them on a straight line basis over the requisite period for the entire award. Under IFRS (IFRS 2 Share-Based Payment), the Company is obliged to recognize the aforementioned costs on a straight line basis over the requisite service period for each separately vesting portion of the award as if the award was, in substance, multiple awards. As a result, as of December 31, 2011 the Company increased accumulated deficit and additional paid-in capital in the amount of $134,000 and for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011 share based compensation expenses decreased by $143,000.
 
D.
Short-term investments

Under US GAAP the Company classified its investments in debt securities as available for sale. The investments were stated at market value and unrealized gains and losses, were reported as a separate component of equity (accumulated other comprehensive gain or loss). Under IFRS, the Company decided to early adopt IFRS 9 Financial Instruments (hereafter – IFRS 9). According to IFRS 9 the Company examined the business model under which its investments in debt securities are held and decided that the investments are not held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets in order to collect contractual cash flows. Therefore, the Company classified its investments in debt securities as fair value through profit or loss in its IFRS financial statements. As a result, as of December 31, 2011 the accumulated deficit and the accumulated other comprehensive income were decreased in the amount of $91,000. For the nine month period ended September 30, 2011 finance income, net was decreased in the statement of operations in the amount of $232,000 and increased accumulated other comprehensive income respectively.

 
 

 
 
E.
Royalty liability to the Office of the Chief Scientist

Under U.S. GAAP, grants received from the Office of the Chief Scientist (“OCS”) were recorded as a decrease in research and development costs in the periods the grants were received. In subsequent periods, when royalties were paid or accrued, the amounts were charged to cost of revenues. Under IFRS (IAS 20R Government Grants), grants from the OCS should be recognized as a liability according to their fair value on the date of their receipt and measured according to the present value of the anticipated cash flows, unless on that date it is reasonably certain that the amount received will not be refunded. The amount of the liability should be reexamined each period, and any changes in the present value of the cash flows discounted at the original interest of the grant shall be recognized in the statement of operations. The difference between the amount of the grant upon its receipt and its fair value should be recognized as a decrease in research and development costs. As a result, as of December 31, 2011 the Company recognized a liability in the amount of $4.5 million and increased accordingly accumulated deficit and for the nine months period ended September 30, 2011 cost of revenues was decreased in the amount of $205,000 and finance costs were decreased in the amount of $338,000.

F.
Obligation to issue non-fixed amount of shares to a seller in a business combination transaction

As a part of the consideration paid by the Company in a business combination transaction, the Company issued shares that are subject to a lock up ("lock up shares"). According to the lock up arrangement, the final number of the "lock up shares" will be calculated according to the actual share price at the time of their release, in a mechanism that is in substance an obligation to issue a non-fixed amount of shares. Under US GAAP, the total value of the "lock up shares" was recorded in the shareholders' equity at the issuance date. Under IFRS (IAS 32 Financial Instruments: Presentation) the "lock up shares" are to be recorded as financial liability at fair value till their release from the lock up. Upon release, the liability is charged to equity.  Changes in the fair value of the financial liability are to be recorded as finance income (loss). Accordingly, as of December 2011 other current liabilities were increased in the amount of $124,000 and for the nine months period ended September 30, 2011 finance expenses, net was decreased in the amount of $53,000.
