NOTE 1:-GENERAL
a.SolarEdge Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries design, develop, and sell an intelligent inverter solution designed to maximize power generation at the individual photovoltaic (“PV”) module level while lowering the cost of energy produced by the solar PV system and providing comprehensive and advanced safety features. The Company’s products consist mainly of (i) power optimizers designed to maximize energy throughput from each and every module through constant tracking of Maximum Power Point individually per module, (ii) inverters which invert direct current (DC) from the PV module to alternating current (AC), (iii) a remote cloud-based monitoring platform, that collects and processes information from the power optimizers and inverters to enable customers and system owners, to monitor and manage the solar PV system (iv) a storage and backup solution that is used to increase energy independence and maximize self-consumption for homeowners by utilizing a battery that is sold separately by third party manufacturers, to store and supply power as needed, and (v) additional smart energy management solutions.
The Company and its subsidiaries sell products worldwide through large distributors, electrical equipment wholesalers, as well as directly to large solar installers and engineering, procurement and construction firms.
b.The Company has expanded its activity to other areas of smart energy technology organically and through acquisitions. The Company now offers a variety of energy solutions, which include lithium-ion cells, batteries and energy storage systems (“Energy Storage”), full powertrain kits for electric vehicles, or EVs (“e-Mobility”), uninterrupted power supply solutions or UPS (“Critical Power”), as well as automated machines for industrial use (“Automation Machines”).
c.Recently issued and adopted pronouncements:
In August 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity's Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity (ASU 2020-06), which simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity, including convertible instruments and contracts on an entity’s own equity. This guidance also eliminates the treasury stock method to calculate diluted earnings per share for convertible instruments and requires the use of the if-converted method. ASU 2020-06 will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, with early adoption permitted. Effective January 1, 2021, the Company early adopted ASU 2020-06 using the modified retrospective approach. Adoption of the new standard resulted in an increase of retained earnings in an amount of $
In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-01, Investments-Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investments-Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), which clarifies the interaction between the accounting for equity securities in Topic 321, the accounting for equity method investments in Topic 323, and the accounting for certain forward contracts and purchased options in Topic 815. The guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2020. Effective January 1, 2021, the Company adopted this standard on a prospective basis. The impact of adoption of this standard on the Company’s consolidated financial statements was immaterial.

NOTE 1:-GENERAL (Cont.)
d.Basis of Presentation:
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). In management’s opinion, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature that are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. The Company’s interim period results do not necessarily indicate the results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the full fiscal year.
The significant accounting policies applied in the annual consolidated financial statements of the Company as of December 31, 2020, contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/A filed with the SEC on February 19, 2021, have been applied consistently in these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements, except for the adoption of ASU 2020-06, Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity (Topic 470) (see Note 7).
e.Use of estimates:
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, costs and expenses and related disclosures in the accompanying notes. The duration, scope and effects of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, government and other third party responses to it, and the related macroeconomic effects, including to the Company’s business and the business of the Company’s suppliers and customers are uncertain, rapidly changing and difficult to predict. As a result, the Company’s accounting estimates and assumptions may change over time in response to this evolving situation. Such changes could result in future impairments of goodwill, intangibles, long-lived assets, inventories, incremental credit losses on receivables and AFS debt securities, or an increase in the Company’s insurance liabilities as of the time of a relevant measurement event.
f.Concentrations of supply risks:
The Company depends on two contract manufacturers and several limited or single source component suppliers. Reliance on these vendors makes the Company vulnerable to possible capacity constraints and reduced control over component availability, delivery schedules, manufacturing yields, and costs.
As of June 30, 2021, and December 31, 2020, two contract manufacturers collectively accounted for
During 2020, the Company started production in its manufacturing facility in the North of Israel, “Sella 1”. During the second quarter of 2021, Sella 1 reached full manufacturing capacity.
g.Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

NOTE 4:-INVESTMENT IN PRIVATELY-HELD COMPANIES
On January 31, 2021, the Company completed an investment of $
On February 1, 2021, the Company signed on a preferred stock purchase agreement for an additional investment of $
Under ASU 2016-01 equity investments without readily determinable fair value include ownership rights that either (i) do not meet the definition of in-substance common stock or (ii) do not provide the Company with control or significant influence.
The Company adjusts the carrying value of its non-marketable equity securities to fair value upon observable transactions for identical or similar investments of the same issuer or upon impairment. All gains and losses on non-marketable equity securities, realized and unrealized, are recognized in financial income (expenses), net.
The Company accounted for the AutoGrid investment as an equity investment that does not have readily determinable fair values. As such, the Company’s non-marketable equity securities had a carrying value of $
The Company periodically evaluates the carrying value of the investments in privately-held companies when events and circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the investment may not be recovered. These investments include the Company’s holdings in privately-held companies that are not traded and therefore not supported with observable market prices. The Company may determine the fair value by reviewing equity valuation reports, current financial results, long-term plans of the privately-held companies, the amount of cash that the privately-held companies have on-hand, the ability to obtain additional financing and overall market conditions in which the privately-held companies operate or based on the price observed from the most recent completed financing.
No impairment or other adjustments related to observable price changes in orderly transactions for identical or similar investments were identified for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021.

NOTE 5:-FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
In accordance with ASC 820, the Company measures its cash equivalents and marketable securities, at fair value using the market approach valuation technique. Cash equivalents and marketable securities are classified within Level 1 and Level 2, respectively, because these assets are valued using quoted market prices or alternative pricing sources and models utilizing market observable inputs. Foreign currency derivative contracts are classified within the Level 2 value hierarchy, as the valuation inputs are based on quoted prices and market observable data of similar instruments.
The following table sets forth the Company’s assets that were measured at fair value as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 by level within the fair value hierarchy:

NOTE 6:-DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES
The Company accounts for derivatives and hedging based on ASC 815 (“Derivatives and Hedging”). ASC 815 requires the Company to recognize all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value (i.e., gains or losses) of a derivative instrument depends on whether it has been designated and qualifies as part of a hedging relationship and further, on the type of hedging relationship.
To protect against the increase in value of forecasted foreign currency cash flows resulting from salary denominated in the Israeli currency, the New Israeli Shekels (“NIS”), during the six months June 30, 2021, the Company instituted a foreign currency cash flow hedging program. The Company hedges portions of the anticipated payroll denominated in NIS for a period of one to nine months with hedging contracts.
Accordingly, when the dollar strengthens against the NIS, the decline in present value of future foreign currency expenses is offset by losses in the fair value of the hedging contracts. Conversely, when the dollar weakens, the increase in the present value of future foreign currency cash flows is offset by gains in the fair value of the hedging contracts. These hedging contracts are designated as cash flow hedges, as defined by ASC 815 and are all effective hedges.
As of June 30, 2021, the Company entered into forward contracts to sell U.S. dollars for NIS in the amount of $
In addition to the above-mentioned cash flow hedges transactions, the Company also entered into derivative instrument arrangements to hedge the Company’s exposure to currencies other than the U.S. dollar. These derivative instruments are not designated as cash flow hedges, as defined by ASC 815, and therefore all gains and losses, resulting from fair value remeasurement, were recorded immediately in the statement of income, as financial expenses, net.
As of June 30, 2021, the Company entered into forward contracts and put and call options to sell Australian dollars (“AUD”) for U.S. dollars in the amount of AUD
As of June 30, 2021, the Company entered into forward contracts and put and call options to sell Euro (“EUR”) for U.S. dollars in the amount of EUR

NOTE 14:-SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company operates in five different operating segments: Solar, Energy Storage, e-Mobility, Critical Power and Automation Machines.
The Company's Chief Executive Officer, who is the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) , makes resource allocation decisions and assesses performance based on financial information presented on a consolidated basis, accompanied by disaggregated information about revenues and contributed profit by the operating segments.
The Company does not allocate to its operating segments revenue recognized due to advance payments received for performance obligations that extend for a period greater than one year (“financing component”), related to Accounting Standard Codification 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (ASC 606).
Segment profit is comprised of gross profit for the segment less operating expenses that do not include amortization, stock based compensation expenses and certain other items.
The Company manages its assets on a group basis, not by segments, as many of its assets are shared or co-mingled. The Company’s CODM does not regularly review asset information by segments and, therefore, the Company does not report asset information by segment.
The Company identified one operating segment as reportable – the Solar segment. The other operating segments are insignificant individually and therefore their results are presented together under “All other”.
The Solar segment includes the design, development, manufacturing, and sales of an intelligent inverter solution designed to maximize power generation at the individual PV module level. The solution consists mainly of the Company’s power optimizers, inverters and cloud-based monitoring platform.
The “All other” category includes the design, development, manufacturing and sales of energy storage products, e-Mobility products, UPS products and automated machines.

Overview
We are a leading provider of an optimized inverter solution that has changed the way power is harvested and managed in a solar photovoltaic, known as PV systems. Our direct current or DC optimized inverter system maximizes power generation at the individual PV module level while lowering the cost of energy produced by the solar PV system, for improved return on investment, or RoI. Additional benefits of the DC optimized inverter system include comprehensive and advanced safety features, improved design flexibility, and improved operating and maintenance, or O&M with module-level and remote monitoring. The typical SolarEdge optimized inverter system consists of power optimizers, inverters, a communication device which enables access to a cloud-based monitoring platform and in many cases, additional smart energy management solutions. Our solutions address a broad range of solar market segments, from residential solar installations to commercial and small utility-scale solar installations.
5
Since introducing the optimized inverter solution in 2010, SolarEdge has expanded its activity to other areas of smart energy technology, both through organic growth and through acquisitions. SolarEdge now offers energy solutions which include not only residential, commercial and small utility scale PV systems but also product offerings in the areas of energy storage systems or ESS and backup, electric vehicle, or EV components and charging capabilities, home energy management, grid services and virtual power plants, lithium-ion batteries and uninterrupted power supply, known as UPS solutions.
In the third quarter of 2020 we began commercial shipments to the U.S. from our manufacturing facility in the North of Israel, “Sella 1”. The proximity of Sella 1 to our R&D team and labs, enables us to accelerate new product development cycles as well as define equipment and manufacturing processes of newly developed products which can then be adopted by our contract manufacturers world-wide. During the second quarter of 2021, Sella 1 reached full manufacturing capacity. In 2020, we began construction of “Sella 2”, a 2GWh Li-Ion cell factory in Korea. The new factory is being constructed to meet the growing global demand for Li-Ion cells and batteries, specifically in the energy storage system (“ESS”) and e-mobility markets. Sella 2 is expected to initiate ramp-up of manufacturing in the first half of 2022.
We are a leader in the global module-level power electronics (“MLPE”) market. As of June 30, 2021, we have shipped approximately 74.1 million power optimizers and 3.1 million inverters. Over 2.15 million installations, many of which may include multiple inverters, are currently connected to, and monitored through, our cloud‑based monitoring platform. As of June 30, 2021, we have shipped approximately 25.7 GW of our DC optimized inverter systems.
Our revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 were $480.1 million and $331.9 million, respectively. Gross margin was 32.5% and 31.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Net income was $45.1 million and $36.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
Our revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 were $885.5 million and $763.1 million, respectively. Gross margin was 33.5% and 31.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Net income was $75.2 million and $78.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
COVID-19 Impact
We continue to monitor the evolving impact of COVID-19 on our operations and business. Our first priority continues to be protecting and supporting our employees while maintaining company operations and support of our customers with as few disruptions as possible. We follow the guidance issued by applicable local authorities and health officials in each region in which we do business, including in our headquarters located in Israel, and have been able to continue our operations remotely or from our offices. We have maintained a flexible attendance policy that has allowed our employees to work remotely, where possible, in order to reduce the number of people who are in our offices while our labs and manufacturing facilities remain fully operational. Our manufacturing facilities in Korea, Italy and Israel and our contract manufacturers’ facilities in China, Vietnam and Hungary have remained operational and at almost full capacity, with some interruptions on a case-by-case basis in compliance with local laws and in order to minimize the spread of the COVID-19 virus. Specifically, in Vietnam, there have been and continue to be government enforced lockdowns that have led to the temporary shutdown of our manufacturing lines. Our customer support centers are working at full capacity, partially from home. Continued travel restrictions however continue to have an impact on our operations.
6
While our operations and operating expenses have not been significantly impacted by COVID-19, in the second quarter of 2021 we experienced and continue to experience an increase in the cost of goods sold due to an increase in shipping rates that resulted from a reduction in ocean freight capacity, the accumulation of containers in the United States and Europe that were not returned to Asia and the reduction in the availability of air freight that increased the demand for ocean freight.
Our second quarter revenues of $480.1 million reflect a healthy recovery from the impacts of the global pandemic, with an increase of 18.4% from the $405.5 million of revenues in the first quarter of 2021. This increase reflects a significant increase in demand for our products in all geographies in which we operate following the negative impacts on demand experienced in 2020 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Key Operating Metrics
In managing our business and assessing financial performance, we supplement the information provided by the financial statements with other operating metrics. These operating metrics are utilized by our management to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends affecting our business and formulate projections. We use metrics relating to shipments (inverters, power optimizers and megawatts shipped) to evaluate our sales performance and to track market acceptance of our products. We use metrics relating to monitoring (systems monitored) to evaluate market acceptance of our products and usage of our solution.
We provide the “megawatts shipped” metric, which is calculated based on nameplate capacity shipped, to show adoption of our system on a nameplate capacity basis. Nameplate capacity shipped is the maximum rated power output capacity of an inverter and corresponds to our financial results in that higher total nameplate capacities shipped are generally associated with higher total revenues. However, revenues increase with each additional unit, not necessarily each additional MW of capacity sold. Accordingly, we also provide the “inverters shipped” and “power optimizers shipped” operating metrics.

Revenues increased by $148.2 million, or 44.7%, for the three months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2020, primarily due to (i) an increase in the number of inverters and power optimizers sold, with significant growth in revenues in all geographies; and (ii) an increase in the numbers of powertrain kits supplied by SolarEdge e-Mobility SPA (“SolarEdge e-Mobility”), in an aggregate amount of $20.4 million. Revenues from outside of the U.S. comprised 63.4% of our revenues in the three months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to 62.0% in the three months ended June 30, 2020.
Our blended ASP per watt for solar products is calculated by dividing the solar revenues by the name plate capacity of inverters shipped. Our blended ASP per watt increased by $0.056, or 26.0%, in the three months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2020. A primary contributor to this increase was a relatively higher number of power optimizers shipped compared to the number of inverters shipped, which increased our total solar revenues but did not impact the watt amount used for calculating the ASP per watt.
8
The increase in blended ASP per watt is also attributed to an increase in the sale of residential products out of our total solar product mix, mainly in Europe and in the U.S, that are characterized with higher ASP per watt as well as the strengthening of the Euro and other currencies against the U.S. Dollar.
This increase in blended ASP per watt was partially offset by a change in our customer mix in the U.S. toward larger customers that enjoy preferential pricing due to volume commitments.
Revenues increased by $122.5 million, or 16.1%, for the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020, primarily due to (i) an increase in the number of inverters and power optimizers sold, with significant growth in revenues coming from Europe, and the rest of the world; and (ii) an increase in the numbers of powertrain kits supplied by SolarEdge e-Mobility in an aggregate amount of $30.8 million. This increase was partially offset by a decrease in revenues which we attribute principally to the high level of safe harbor-related revenues in the amount of $51.4 million generated in the U.S. in the first quarter of 2020 which did not occur in 2021 due to the expected extension of the Solar Investment Tax Credits. Revenues from outside of the U.S. comprised 61.7% of our revenues in the six months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to 51.0% in the six months ended June 30, 2020.
Our blended ASP per watt for solar products shipped increased by $0.022, or 9.9%, in the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020. This increase is primarily attributed to an increase in the proportion of residential products sold out of our solar product mix, mainly in Europe and in the U.S, that are characterized with higher ASP per watt as well as the strengthening of the Euro and other currencies against the U.S. Dollar.

•
the absence of safe harbor related sales, that were characterized with a lower gross margin in the first quarter of 2020;
•
favorable exchange rates on our sales outside of the U.S.; and
•
continued cost reduction efforts.
These were partially offset by:
•
an increase in support costs related to our warranty obligations due to an increase in our install base and and the costs associated with providing our warranty coverage;
•
a change in our customer mix in the U.S. toward larger customers that enjoy preferable pricing;
•

Financial expenses were $1.7 million in the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to an income in the amount of $11.6 million in the three months ended June 30, 2020, primarily due to a decrease of $12.8 million in foreign exchange fluctuations income, mainly between the Euro, the New Israeli Shekel and the South Korean Won against the U.S. Dollar.
Financial expenses increased by $2.8 million, or 55.6% in the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020, primarily due to:
•
an increase of $5.6 million in foreign exchange fluctuations expenses, mainly between the Euro, the New Israeli Shekel and the South Korean Won against the U.S. Dollar;
•
an increase of $1.4 million in expenses related to amortization of issuance costs on our convertible senior notes (“Notes”); and
•
an increase of $0.7 million in accretion (amortization) of discount (premium) on marketable securities, net of interest income.
These expenses were partially offset by an increase of $3.9 million in finance income related to hedging transactions.

As of June 30, 2021, our cash and cash equivalents were $524.1 million. This amount does not include $603.0 million invested in available for sale marketable securities, $2.5 million invested in restricted bank deposits and $13.6 million invested in short-term bank deposits. Our principal uses of cash are for funding our operations and other working capital requirements. As of June 30, 2021, we have open commitments for capital expenditures in an amount of approximately $80.0 million. These commitments reflect purchases of automated assembly lines and other machinery related to our manufacturing operations. We also have purchase obligations in the amount of $874.9 million related to raw materials and commitments for the future manufacturing of our products. We believe that cash provided by operating activities as well as our cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash needs for at least the next 12 months including the self-funding of our capital expenditure commitments.
Operating Activities
During the six months ended June 30, 2021, cash provided by operating activities was $62.8 million, derived mainly from a net income of $75.2 million that included $82.2 million of non-cash expenses, an increase of $27.3 million in warranty obligations, $19.7 million in accrued expenses and other accounts payable, $9.7 million in accruals for employees, $4.5 million in deferred revenues and customer advances and a decrease of $13.2 million in inventories. This was offset by an increase of $128.6 million in trade receivables, $20.3 million in prepaid expenses and other accounts receivable and a decrease of $20.1 million in trade payables.
For the six months, ended June 30, 2020, cash provided by operating activities was $167.1 million derived mainly from net income of $78.9 million that included $35.5 million of non-cash expenses, a decrease of $116.0 million in trade receivables and $37.1 million in prepaid expenses and other accounts receivable, an increase of $5.8 million in accrued expenses and other accounts payable, $20.2 million in warranty obligations, and $1.4 million in accruals for employees. This was offset by a decrease of $31.8 million in deferred revenues and customer advances, $1.8 million in trade payables and an increase of $94.2 million in inventories.
15
Investing Activities
During the six months ended June 30, 2021, net cash used in investing activities was $336.0 million, of which $422.5 million was invested in available-for-sale marketable securities and $65.3 million was related to capital investments in laboratory equipment, end of line testing equipment, automated assembly lines, manufacturing tools and leasehold improvements. Net cash used in investing activities was offset by $103.8 million from sales and maturities of available-for-sale marketable securities, $46.5 million from the withdrawal from bank deposits, net and $1.5 million related to other investing activities.
During the six months ended June 30, 2020 net cash provided by investing activities was $26.9 million, of which $89.7 million was proceeds from sales and maturities of available-for-sale marketable securities which we sold in order to maintain high cash balances to mitigate risks associated with COVID-19, $25.6 million was from the withdrawal from restricted bank deposits, net, and $2.1 million related to other investing activities. This was offset by $36.8 million which was invested in available-for-sale marketable securities, and $53.7 million related to capital investments in laboratory equipment, end of line testing equipment, automated assembly lines, manufacturing tools and leasehold improvements.
Financing Activities
During the six months ended June 30, 2021, net cash used in financing activities was $21.2 million, of which $16.4 related to repayment of loans, $4.2 million was attributed to cash received from the exercise of employee and non-employee stock-based awards net of withholding taxes remitted to the tax authorities and $0.6 million related to other financing activities.
For the six months ended June 30, 2020, net cash provided by financing activities was $9.0 million, of which, $15.2 million was related to proceeds from new bank loans of Kokam and $9.1 million was attributed to cash received from the exercise of employee and non-employee stock-based awards. This was offset by $15.2 million used for repayment of loans we acquired as part of the Kokam acquisition and $0.1 million related to other financing activities.
Convertible Senior Note
On September 25, 2020, we issued $632.5 million aggregate principal amount of our Notes in a transaction exempt from registration pursuant to Rule 144A and Regulation S under the Securities Act. Net proceeds from the offering, after underwriters’ discount and commissions and offering expenses, was $617.9 million. We intend to use the proceeds of the Notes for general corporate purposes. See Note 7 to our interim financial statements for more information.
Debt Obligations
During 2020, we redeemed all outstanding loans, including the bank loan obligations acquired as part of the acquisition of Kokam and entered into new bank loans in an aggregate amount of $15.2 million. During the second quarter of 2021 we redeemed the new bank loans. In addition, during 2020, we entered into a second bank loan in an aggregate amount of $1.4 million. The second bank loan matures in September 2030, with a monthly interest rate of 2.5%. As of June 30, 2021, the aggregate outstanding amount of the second bank loan was $1.4 million.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.
ITEM 3QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are exposed to market risk in the ordinary course of our business. Market risk represents the risk of loss that may impact our financial position due to adverse changes in financial market prices and rates. Our market risk exposure is primarily a result of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, customer concentrations and interest rates. We do not hold or issue financial instruments for trading purposes.
16
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk
Approximately 56.4% and 45.6% of our revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, were earned in non‑U.S. Dollar denominated currencies, principally the Euro. Our expenses are generally denominated in the currencies in which our operations are located, primarily the U.S. Dollar and New Israeli Shekel, and to a lesser extent, the Euro and South Korean Won. Our New Israeli Shekel‑denominated expenses consist primarily of personnel and overhead costs. Our consolidated results of operations and cash flows are, therefore, subject to fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and may be adversely affected in the future due to changes in foreign exchange rates. A hypothetical 10% change in foreign currency exchange rates during the six months ended June 30, 2021, between the Euro and the U.S. Dollar would increase or decrease our net income by $32.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. A hypothetical 10% change in foreign currency exchange rates during the six months ended June 30, 2021 between the New Israeli Shekel and the U.S. Dollar would increase or decrease our net income by $10.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. A hypothetical 10% change in foreign currency exchange rates during the six months ended June 30, 2021, between the South Korean Won and the U.S. Dollar would increase or decrease our net income by $22.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021
For purposes of our consolidated financial statements, local currency assets and liabilities are translated at the rate of exchange to the U.S. Dollar on the balance sheet date and local currency revenues and expenses are translated at the exchange rate as of the date of the transaction or at the average exchange rate to the U.S. Dollar during the reporting period.
To date, we have used derivative financial instruments, specifically foreign currency forward to manage exposure to foreign currency risks by hedging portions of the anticipated payroll payments denominated in New Israeli Shekels (“NIS”). Our foreign currency forward contracts are expected to mitigate exchange rate changes related to the hedged assets. Those hedging contracts are designated as cash flow hedges.
In addition, we also entered into derivative instrument arrangements to hedge the Company’s exposure to currencies other than the U.S. dollar, mainly forward contracts and put and call options to sell Euro for U.S. dollars, forward contracts and put and call options to sell Australian dollars (“AUD”) for U.S. dollars and forward contracts to sell U.S. dollars for South Korean Won (“KRW”). These derivative instruments are not designated as cash flow hedges.
Concentrations of Major Customers
Our trade accounts receivables potentially expose us to a concentration of credit risk with our major customers. As of June 30, 2021, two customers accounted for approximately 30.46% of our consolidated trade receivables, net balance. We currently do not foresee a credit risk associated with these receivables other than the amount included in our financial statements.
ITEM 4CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as of the end of the period covered by this report. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.
Based on that evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective and operating to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and to provide reasonable assurance that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Based on an evaluation by our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, such officers concluded that there have been no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
