Organizational History


Creations, Inc. was incorporated in May 2019. On July 1, 2019, Creations, Inc., acquired a 100% interest in Ocean-Yetsira Ltd (formerly Yetsira Holdings Ltd), through a share swap agreement. Ocean Yetsira is an Israeli Corporation incorporated in December 2017, which in turn owns 100% of Yetsira Investment House ("Yetsira"), which was incorporated in November 2016.

On August 19, 2020, the Company purchased 7.5% of the outstanding and issued shares of Ocean Partners Y.O.D.M Ltd., an Israeli corporation ("Ocean") for total cash consideration of approximately $87,000. On September 7, 2020, the Company entered into a share exchange agreement by and among Yetsira, Ocean, and certain shareholders of Ocean, pursuant to which the Company acquired the remaining 92.5% of the capital stock of Ocean in exchange for an aggregate of 1,254,498 shares of common stock of the Company, $0.001 par value, and 1,254,498 warrants to purchase shares of common stock of the Company (the "Warrants") issued to the certain Ocean shareholders by the Company. The Warrants are convertible into shares of our common stock over a period of three-years at an exercise price of $1.00 per share. The Company completed the acquisition on September 28, 2020.

Following the acquisition of Ocean, all the investment management business of the group is managed through Ocean.

On April 17, 2022, the board of directors approved a resolution as to matters of ongoing conduct such as signatory rights, voting etc. In addition, compensation of officers was updated. Also, non-committal guidelines for future transactions regarding sale of main activity to related parties and sale of holdings by those parties were discussed, these guidelines are pursuant to completion of legal structuring, compliance issues and more.

The Company is in the process of finalizing an agreement between itself and a group of buyers (led by Yaniv Aharon director and shareholder in Creations Inc.) to sell all of the capital stock in its subsidiary Ocean Yetsira Ltd in exchange for 4.227M ILS and the repurchase of all shares of the Company owned by the Buyers. Following the sale of Ocean Yetsira, the Company is reviewing several alternatives to maximize shareholders return. Including, selling the Company to a new buyer in order to place a new business in the Company or other alternative that will result in distribution of the proceeds received to the shareholders of the Company.

Our continued focus is on our core business of mutual fund management, while increasing our number of managed funds and private portfolio and increasing of our AUM. Part of our growth depends on the strength of our brand, which the Company intends to strengthen by increasing our exposure to the general public, especially through investment advisors in the commercial banks, which constitute the main channel for funds distribution in Israel. We also plan to increase public relations activities and advertising. We also continue to examine the expansion of our areas of activity, through cooperation, locating synergistic opportunities for our existing areas of activity and establishing additional parallel investment opportunities. In addition, we may pursue the acquisition of other unrelated businesses in the financial sector.

Through our wholly owned subsidiary, Ocean, we operate as a portfolio manager, licensed by the Israel Securities Authority ("ISA"). Ocean currently offers and manages nine mutual funds branded as Ocean-Yetsira funds, and 107 private portfolios with approximately $284M in assets, currently under management ("AUM").

We generate revenue primarily from management fees paid by our unitholders or clients, which fees are based upon a certain percentage of their assets in the funds. Our expenses are mainly comprised of payments for distribution, commissions to banks, third-party platform user fees, salary commissions and expenses, and commissions to the ISA and the Israeli Stock Exchange. We conduct our business exclusively through Ocean Yetsira and exercise effective control over the operations of Ocean and Yetsira pursuant to a series of contractual arrangements, under which we are entitled to receive substantially all of its economic benefits.
