Use
of Proceeds
|
We
will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of the shares of our
common stock being offered for sale by the selling stockholders. However,
we may receive up to approximately $3.3 million in proceeds upon exercise
of the warrants and options held by the selling stockholders, as the
warrants and options have an average exercise price of $0.74 per share and
are exercisable into 4,382,503 shares of our common stock. These
potential proceeds will be used for the research and development of our
products and for general working capital purposes. See “Use of
Proceeds.”
|
|
Plan
of Distribution
|
The
selling stockholders, and their pledgees, donees, transferees or other
successors in interest, may from time to time offer and sell, separately
or together, some or all of the common stock covered by this prospectus.
Registration of the common stock covered by this prospectus does not mean,
however, that those shares necessarily will be offered or sold. See “Plan of
Distribution.”

Oramed
Pharmaceuticals Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated on April 12, 2002,
under the laws of the State of Nevada. From incorporation until March 3,
2006, the Company was an exploration stage company engaged in the
acquisition and exploration of mineral properties. On February 17, 2006,
the Company entered into an agreement with Hadasit Medical Services and
Development Ltd (the “First Agreement”) to acquire the provisional patent
related to orally ingestible insulin capsule to be used for the treatment
of individuals with diabetes. The Company has been in the development
stage since its formation and has not yet realized any revenues from its
operations.
|
|
On
May 14, 2007, the Company incorporated a wholly-owned subsidiary in
Israel, Oramed Ltd., which is engaged in research and development. Unless
the context indicates otherwise, the term “Group” refers to Oramed
Pharmaceuticals Inc. and its Israeli subsidiary, Oramed Ltd. (the
“Subsidiary”).
|
|
The
group is engaged in research and development in the biotechnology field
and is considered a development stage company in accordance with ASC Topic
915 (formerly FAS 7) “Development Stage
Entities”.

The
accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements as of May
31, 2010 and for the nine months then ended, have been prepared in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States relating to the preparation of financial statements for interim
periods. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and
footnotes required for annual financial statements. In the opinion of
management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals)
considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating
results for the nine months ended May 31, 2010, are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending August
31, 2010.

Newly
issued and recently adopted Accounting
Pronouncements
|
|
In
February 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2010-09
("ASU 2010-09"), "Subsequent Events (Topic 855): Amendments to Certain
Recognition and Disclosure Requirements," which among other things amended
ASC 855 to remove the requirement for an SEC filer to disclose the date
through which subsequent events have been evaluated. This change
alleviates potential conflicts between ASC 855 and the SEC's requirements.
All of the amendments in this update are effective upon issuance of this
update. Management has included the provisions of these amendments in the
financial statements.

Reclassification:

a.

Under
the terms of the First Agreement with Hadasit (note 1a(1) above), the
Company retained Hadasit to provide consulting and clinical trial
services. As remuneration for the services provided under the agreement,
Hadasit is entitled to $200,000. The primary researcher for Hadasit is Dr.
Miriam Kidron, a director and officer of the Company. The funds paid to
Hadasit under the agreement are deposited by Hadasit into a research fund

In
May 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 165, “Subsequent Events” (“SFAS 165”).
SFAS 165 sets forth the period after the balance sheet date during which
management of a reporting entity should evaluate events or transactions
that may occur for potential recognition or disclosure in the financial
statements, the circumstances under which an entity should recognize
events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet date in its
financial statements, and the disclosures that an entity should make about
events or transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date. SFAS
165 will be effective for interim or annual periods ending after June 15,
2009 and will be applied prospectively. The Company adopted the provisions
of FAS 165. The adoption of SFAS No. 165 did not have a material impact on
the Company’s condensed financial condition, results of operations or cash
flows.

In
June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 168 “The FASB Accounting Standards
Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles
— A Replacement of FASB Statement No. 162” (“SFAS 168”). Statement 168
establishes the FASB Accounting Standards CodificationTM (Codification) as
the single source of authoritative U.S. generally accepted accounting
principles (U.S. GAAP) recognized by the FASB to be applied by
nongovernmental entities. Rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under
authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative
U.S. GAAP for SEC registrants. SFAS 168 and the Codification are effective
for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending
after September 15, 2009. When effective, the Codification will supersede
all existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. All other
nongrandfathered non-SEC accounting literature not included in the
Codification will become nonauthoritative. Following SFAS 168, the FASB
will not issue new standards in the form of Statements, FASB Staff
Positions, or Emerging Issues Task Force Abstracts. Instead, the FASB will
issue Accounting Standards Updates, which will serve only to: (a) update
the Codification; (b) provide background information about the guidance;
and (c) provide the bases for conclusions on the change(s) in the
Codification. The Company does not expect that the adoption of SFAS 168 to
have a material impact on the Company’s financial
statements.

be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering
thereof. Provided, however, that
no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part
of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed
incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus
that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a
