Year ended December 31, 2020 Financial Results on US GAAP basis ("GAAP")

Revenues for the year ended December 31, 2020 increased by 165% to $6.1 million, compared to $2.3 million in the year ended December 31, 2019. Revenue in 2020 included $3.6 million revenue from the kidney option exercised under the licensing agreement with United Therapeutics Corporation. Excluding the licensing option payment, revenue from sale of BioInk and goods and services increased in 2020 by $200,000, in comparison with 2019.

Total operating costs and expenses for the year ended December 31, 2020 increased by 7% to $8.7 million, compared to $8.1 million in the year ended December 31, 2019. Operating loss for the year 2020 was $5.6 million, a decrease of 26% compared to an operating loss of $7.6 million in 2019. The decrease is mainly derived from revenues from licensing in the amount of $3.6 million received in 2020 offset by an increase in operating costs and expenses including $600,000 in share-based compensation expenses and $360,000 in salaries and insurance policy costs.

Financial expense, net for the year 2020 was $175,000 compared to financial expense, net of $3.5 million in the year 2019. The decrease of approximately $3.3 million is mainly due to a decrease in non-cash re-evaluation expenses of $3.3 million of CollPlant's warrants and the anti-dilution derivatives.

Comprehensive loss for the year ended December 31, 2020 was $5.8 million, or $0.84 per share, compared to a comprehensive loss of $11.2 million, or $2.23 per share, for the year ended December 31, 2019. The decrease is mainly due to (1) $3.8 million increase in revenues and non-cash re-evaluation expenses of $3.3 million, of CollPlant's warrants and the anti-dilution derivatives offset by a $700,000 increase in operating expenses .

Cash used in operating activities during the year ended December 31, 2020, was $4.4 million compared to $5.7 million in the year ended December 31, 2019. The decrease is mainly attributed to a decrease in net loss including the $3.8 million increase in revenues.

Cash used in investing activities during the year ended December 31, 2020, was $519,000 compared to $1.5 million in the year ended December 31, 2019. The decrease is mainly attributed to the establishment in 2019 of CollPlant's new R&D center and headquarters and investment in its production facility.

Cash provided by financing activities during the year 2020, was $4.5 million compared to $5.4 million in the year ended December 31, 2019. In both years, 2020 and 2019, the Company raised funds from investors via private placements in return for issuance of its securities.

Year ended 2020 Financial Results on Non-GAAP Basis

On a non-GAAP basis, the operating costs and expenses for the year 2020 increased by 6% from $6.8 million, compared to $6.6 million for the year 2019. The comprehensive loss for the year ended December 31, 2020 was $3.9 million, or $0.57 per share, compared to $6.4 million, or $1.29 per share, for the year ended December 31, 2019. Non-GAAP measures exclude certain non-cash expenses.

The table on page 13 includes a reconciliation of the Company's GAAP results to non-GAAP results. The reconciliation reflects non-cash net expense in the amount of $1.9 million, mainly with respect to share-based compensation expenses.

Use of Non-GAAP Measures

This press release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures for operating costs and expenses, operating loss, comprehensive loss and basic and diluted comprehensive loss per share that exclude the effects of non-cash expense for fair market value attributed to services received through the share purchase agreement, change in fair value of financial instruments, share-based compensation to employees, directors and consultants, and change in operating lease accounts. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company's performance that enhances management's and investors' ability to evaluate the Company's operating costs, comprehensive loss and loss per share, and to compare them to historical Company results.

The presentation of this non-GAAP financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. Management uses both GAAP and non-GAAP measures when operating and evaluating the Company's business internally and therefore decided to make these non-GAAP adjustments available to investors. The non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company in this press release may be different from the measures used by other companies.

For more information on the non-GAAP financial measures, please see the "Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures" table on page 13 in this press release. This accompanying table on page 13 has more details on the GAAP financial measures that are most directly comparable to non-GAAP financial measures and the related reconciliations between these financial measures.

The Company's consolidated financial results as of, and for the year ended December 31, 2020 are presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP").
