RAMAT GAN, ISRAEL - (May 19, 2021) – XTL Biopharmaceuticals Ltd. (NASDAQ: XTLB, TASE: XTLB.TA) (“XTL” or the “Company”), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical Company, today announced its intention to publish a restatement of its financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020, by way of an amendment to its previously filed Form 20-F (this “Amendment”). The restatement is required due to the fact that the classification of the Company’s warrants as equity (and not as a non-current liability) was incorrect based on the assumption by the Company that the cashless exercise mechanism of the Company’s warrants was removed during 2018. During the second quarter of 2021, the Company concluded that the cashless exercise mechanism was not in fact cancelled when the registration statement originally declared effective in March 2018 became stale, as a result of which the right to exercise the warrants on a cashless basis was again possible, resulting in the situation that the warrants should have been recorded as non-current liabilities, and not as equity instruments. The amended and restated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020 will be restated and filed on May 19, 2021. The Company is planning to file during the upcoming weeks an F-3 Registration Statement, which once effective, shall register the shares underlying the warrants, the result of which will irrevocably cancel the right to exercise the warrants on a cashless basis, following which the warrants shall once again be recorded as an equity instrument and not a non-current liability.
