Please carefully consider all of the information discussed in this Item 3.D. “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this annual report for a more thorough description of these and other risks. Summary of Risks Related to Our Business and Our Industry ● Our success is dependent on adoption of digital textile printing in place of existing methods of printing. ● We are dependent on our ability to timely introduce new products that are accepted by the market and increase our market share. ● We face increased competition from a wide variety of market participants. ● Our significant reliance on a small number of significant customers, including Amazon. ● The adverse impact of unfavorable macro-economic conditions, including inflation and relatively high interest rates on our revenues, profitability and cash flows. ● Our significant reliance on suppliers, including single-source suppliers, and our reliance on third-party manufacturers. 1 ● Overcapacity in the global printed fashion and textile industries has caused and may continue to cause our customers to underutilize existing printing systems that they have purchased from us and to reduce their orders for new systems. That could similarly cause us to underutilize our new ink manufacturing facility. ● Significant disruptions of our information technology systems or breaches of our data security could adversely affect our business. ● The scrutiny that may be applied to sustainability practices of companies such as ours. ● Our expanding international operations are accompanied by costs, operational risks and required regulatory compliance in many jurisdictions. ● We may not be able to successfully acquire and integrate other companies and technologies, necessary for our growth, and to finance such acquisitions. ● We may be subject to significant tax liabilities as a result of audits of our tax returns. Summary of Risks Related to Intellectual Property ● We may be unable to protect our patents and trademarks from infringement, and avoid infringing the intellectual property rights of others. Summary of Risks Related to Our Ordinary Shares ● Volatility of our share price. ● Increased costs as a public company as a result of new compliance initiatives. Summary of Risks Related to Our Operations in Israel ● Israeli government tax benefits we receive may be terminated if we cease to qualify for them. ● Terms of our Israeli research and development grants restrict our ability to transfer manufacturing operations or technology outside of Israel. Risks Related to Our Business and Our Industry If the market for digital textile printing does not develop as we anticipate, our sales may not grow as expected and our share price could decline. The global printed textile industry remains dominated by analog printing processes, the most common of which are screen printing and carousel printing. The development of the digital textile printing market has been slower than we anticipated. If the global printed textile market does not more broadly accept digital printing as an alternative to analog printing, our revenues may not continue to grow, or may decline, and our share price could suffer. Widespread adoption of digital textile printing depends on, among other things, the willingness and ability of businesses in the printed textile industry to replace their existing analog printing systems with digital printing systems. These businesses may decide that digital printing processes are less reliable, less cost-effective, of lower quality, or otherwise less suitable for their commercial needs than analog printing processes. For example, screen printing currently tends to be faster and less expensive than digital printing on a cost per print basis for larger production runs. Even if businesses are persuaded as to the benefits of digital printing, we do not know whether potential buyers of digital printing systems will delay their investment decisions. As a result, we may not correctly estimate demand for our solutions, which could cause us to fail to meet market expectations for our business. 2 Our results of operations depend in part on achieving market acceptance for our new products. Our ability to develop innovative new systems and products is important to our business strategy and competitive position. Difficulties or delays in research, development, production or commercialization of new systems and products could adversely impact our sales and competitive position. We recently commenced commercial sales of the Kornit Apollo, a DTG mass production and customization system. Our results of operations depend in part on achieving sales of this product within the bulk apparel and screen replacement markets. The Apollo is based on the field proven MAX technology, improved by modules of automation and integrated curing. Market acceptance of our new system depends, among other things, on the system demonstrating a real advantage over existing systems, the success of our sales and marketing teams in creating awareness of the system, the sales price and the return on investment of the system relative to alternative systems, customer recognition of the value of our technology, the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns, and the general willingness of potential customers to try new technologies. If the market does not accept our new system, our business, results of operations and financial condition would be adversely affected. If our customers use alternative ink and consumables and/or alternative spare parts in our systems, our gross margin could decline significantly, and our business could be harmed. Our business model is favorably impacted by recurring sales of our ink and other consumables and spare parts for our existing and growing installed base of systems. Third-party ink and other consumables and spare parts might be less expensive or otherwise more appealing to our customers than our ink and other consumables, and spare parts. Significant sales of third-party inks and other consumables and spare parts to our customers would adversely impact our revenues and adversely impact our gross margins and overall profitability. In addition, the use of third-party ink could cause our print heads to clog or otherwise malfunction since our systems are set up to operate at the highest throughput level only when using our original ink and other consumables. We have sought to prevent this in part by protecting the innovations underlying our ink and other consumables through patents and other forms of intellectual property protections. Use of third-party ink and other consumables would also void the warranty over our systems. We also include an RFID mechanism with our ink tanks. These steps may be challenged. Any reduction in our ability to market and sell our ink and other consumables and spare parts for use in our systems may adversely impact our future revenues and our overall profitability. We face increased competition and if we do not compete successfully, our revenues and demand for our solutions could decline. The principal competition for our direct to garment (DTG) systems comes from manufacturers of analog screen-printing systems, textile printers and ink, such as M&R Printing Equipment, Inc., Machines Highest Mechatronic GmbH and ROQ. Our principal competitor in the industrial digital DTG market is Aeoon Technologies GmbH. We also face some competition in this market from OvalJet, M&R, ROQ, Brother International Corporation, Seiko Epson Corporation, Ricoh Company Ltd. and a number of smaller competitors that offer industrial level production capacity through multiple entry level systems. More recently, we have noticed some adoption of commercial level direct-to-film printing methodologies, a sub-segment of traditional heat transfer, which are used as a complimentary solution to direct-to-garment printing for specific applications such as caps and surfaces on which it is difficult to print. Our competitors in the Direct-to-Fabric (also known as R2R), or DTF, market include: Dover Corporation through its MS Printing Solutions S.r.l. subsidiary; Seiko Epson Corporation through its subsidiary, Fratelli Robustelli S.r.l; Durst Phototechnik AG; Electronics for Imaging, Inc. through its Reggiani Macchine SpA subsidiary; and a number of smaller competitors. The principal competition for our KornitX global fulfillment network (GFN) offering which enables on-demand production of textiles and other goods, comes from a variety of virtual marketplaces that are offering certain fulfillment services or applications, or purpose-built direct API connectivity to specific fulfillers. Some of our current and potential competitors have larger overall installed bases, longer operating histories and greater name recognition than we have. In addition, many of these competitors have greater sales and marketing resources, more advanced manufacturing operations, broader distribution channels and greater customer support resources than we have. Some of our competitors in the DTF market gained their current market position by merging with, or acquiring, existing companies in the DTF market. Current and future competitors may be able to respond more quickly to changes in customer demands and devote greater resources to the development, promotion and sale of their printers and ink and other consumables than we can. Our current and potential competitors in both the direct-to-garment and direct-to-fabric markets may also develop and market new technologies that render our existing solutions unmarketable or less competitive. In addition, if these competitors develop products with similar or superior functionality to our solutions at prices comparable to or lower than ours, we may be forced to decrease the prices of our solutions in order to remain competitive, which could reduce our gross margins. 3 A significant portion of our sales is concentrated among a small number of customers, and our business would be adversely affected by a decline in sales to, or the loss of, those customers. During the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, our ten largest customers accounted for approximately 49% and 51% of our revenues, respectively. During those same years, out of the foregoing group of largest customers, Amazon Corporate LLC, a subsidiary of Amazon.com, Inc., which we collectively refer to as Amazon, accounted for approximately 20% and 27% of our revenues, respectively. Given the concentration of our revenues with these customers, the loss of either Amazon or another one of our significant customers, or variability in their order flows, could materially adversely affect our revenues and results of operations. Macro-economic headwinds caused by inflation, relatively high interest rates and limited credit availability have been adversely impacting our revenues and profitability, and may continue to do so. Our business depends on overall demand within the global printed fashion and textile industries, the economic health of our current and prospective clients and worldwide economic conditions. Adverse economic conditions, including due to inflation, relatively high interest rates, unfavorable credit terms and reduced capital expenditure budgets, have significantly reduced, and may continue to reduce, overall demand for our systems, consumables and services. These factors have also delayed or lengthened our sales cycles, and have inhibited our international expansion, and may also lead to longer collection cycles for payments due from our customers, as well as potentially result in an increase in customer bad debt. As a result of these conditions, customers have found it harder to obtain financing to fund their purchase of our systems. While the long-term implications of macroeconomic events on our business, results of operations and overall financial position remain uncertain, in the short term these headwinds are challenging our business. We have experienced a decline in systems revenues and a slower growth rate in services revenues (although consumables revenues have grown), which has led to recent declines in our revenues and profitability. In addition to exerting the foregoing impact, macro-economic headwinds may amplify a number of risks for us, including, but not limited to, the following: ● our ability to increase sales of new, enhanced systems to existing customers may be hindered due to more cautious purchasing and investment strategies by corporate customers, in addition to systems overcapacity at some customers; ● reduced economic activity, which could lead to a recession, could negatively impact consumer discretionary spending on garments and apparel, which in turn could severely impact our business operations, financial condition, and liquidity; ● our customer success efforts, our ability to enter into new markets and to acquire new customers may be impeded, in part due to potentially lower conversion rates and delays and lengthening of our sales cycles; and ● there may be an increase in our credit losses reserves as customers face economic hardship and collectability becomes more uncertain, including due to a higher risk of bankruptcies. The full impact of economic and other headwinds on our business and our future performance may also have the effect of heightening any of our other risk factors described in this annual report and is difficult to predict how long those headwinds will continue. As such, there is risk that any expectations for our business and guidance we provide to the market may be incorrect. 4 Our quarterly results of operations have fluctuated in the past and may fluctuate in the future due to variability in our revenues. Our revenues and other results of operations have fluctuated from quarter to quarter in the past and could continue to fluctuate in the future. Our revenues depend in part on the sale and delivery of our systems, and we cannot predict with certainty when sales transactions for our systems will close or when we will be able to recognize the revenues from such sales, which generally occurs upon delivery of our systems. Customers that we expect to purchase our systems may delay doing so due to timing of obtaining regulatory permits, site readiness, or a change in their priorities or business plans, including as a result of adverse general economic conditions that may disproportionately impact the ability of the small-mid size businesses that constitute a significant portion of our customer base to expend capital or access financing sources. Such conditions could also force us to reduce our prices or limit our ability to profit from economies of scale, which could harm our gross margins. As a result of these factors, we may fail to meet market expectations for any given quarter if sales that we expect for that quarter are delayed until subsequent quarters or canceled. The closing of one or more large transactions in a particular quarter may make it more difficult for us to meet market expectations in subsequent quarters, and our failure to close one or more large transactions in a particular quarter could adversely impact our revenues and margins for that quarter. In addition, we may experience slower growth in our gross margins as our new systems gain commercial acceptance. Our gross margins may also fluctuate based on the regions in which sales of these systems occur. Our customers generally purchase our ink and other consumables on an as-needed basis, and delays in making such purchases by a number of customers could result in a meaningful shift of revenues from one quarter to the next. Moreover, we typically maintain inventories of ink and other consumables sufficient to cover our average sales for at least one quarter ahead. These inventories may not match customers’ demands for any given quarter, which could cause shortages or excesses in our ink and other consumables inventory and result in fluctuations of our quarterly revenues. To the extent that we have excess ink and consumables inventory that we are unable to sell due to expiration dates, we may have to write off such inventory. These inventory requirements may also limit our ability to profit from economies of scale in the production of our ink and other consumables. Furthermore, we base our current and future expense levels on our revenue forecasts and operating plans, and our costs are relatively fixed in the short term, due in part to extended supply and logistics lead times required for ordering certain components of our systems either directly by us or by our contracted manufacturers. Although we took decisive actions to reduce our cost structure over the last two years, we may nevertheless not be able to reduce our costs sufficiently to compensate for an unexpected shortfall in revenues during a particular future quarter, and even a relatively small decrease in revenues could disproportionately and adversely affect our financial results for that quarter. The variability and unpredictability of these and other factors could result in our failing to meet financial expectations for a given period. Our contractual arrangements with Amazon, a significant customer, contain a number of material undertakings by us and other agreements the impact of which cannot be fully predicted in advance. In January 2017, we entered into a master purchase agreement with an affiliate of Amazon.com, Inc. governing sales of our systems and ink and other consumables at agreed-upon prices that vary based on sales volumes. We also agreed to provide maintenance services and extended warranties to Amazon at agreed prices. The term of the agreement was five years beginning on May 1, 2016, and extends automatically for additional one-year periods unless terminated by Amazon. Pursuant to the master purchase agreement, we have issued to an affiliate of Amazon warrants to acquire up to 3,401,028 of our ordinary shares at a purchase price of $59.26 per share, of which 1,787,953 were vested and exercisable as of December 31, 2023. These warrants vest over a five-year period that began in January 2021 based on payments made by Amazon in connection with the purchase of goods and services from us. The value of the warrants that are currently outstanding is based on their fair value as of the grant date of September 14, 2020. Our contractual agreements with Amazon contain a number of material undertakings and other arrangements: ● Our revenues are presented net of the relative value of the warrants in each particular period related to the revenues recognized. The warrants are reported as a reduction of revenue in the Company’s income statement when related revenues are recognized. 5 ● We have agreed to provide a rebate to Amazon based on the number of systems and amount of ink and other consumables Amazon orders in a given 12-month period. The timing and scale of any such rebate may be difficult to predict and may cause fluctuations in our quarterly revenues, gross profit and operating profit. ● We are required to notify Amazon 12 months in advance if we intend to stop supporting one of the products or services that we supply to Amazon and to continue to manufacture the product or provide such service during such 12-month period. Subject to certain exceptions, we are required to continue to supply ink in such quantities as Amazon requires for at least 36 months after the earlier of (1) the end of the term of the master purchase agreement or (2) 18 months following the purchase of the last product sold pursuant to the agreement. ● We are required to deliver our products and services to Amazon and to comply with a service level agreement. If we fail to meet the requirements under such service level agreement, Amazon will receive credits against its cost for those delayed products or services. The impact of the provisions listed above cannot be fully predicted in advance and could, in certain circumstances, adversely impact our business or results of operations, or the manner in which investors or analysts assess and perceive our performance. If our relationships with suppliers, especially with single source suppliers of components, were to terminate, our business could be harmed. We maintain an inventory of parts to facilitate the timely assembly of our systems, production of our ink and other consumables, and servicing our installed base. Most components are available from multiple suppliers, although certain components used in our systems and ink and other consumables, such as our print heads and certain chemicals included in our inks, are only available from single or limited sources as described below. ● The print heads for our systems are supplied by a sole supplier, FujiFilm Dimatix, Inc., or FDMX. We entered into an agreement with FDMX in 2015, pursuant to which FDMX sells us certain off-the-shelf print heads and additional products, all of which FDMX regularly sells to providers of inkjet systems. Under the agreement, as last amended on June 20, 2022, the initial term of the agreement will expire on December 31, 2025, and the agreement will automatically renew for an additional two-year period, unless either party notifies the other party at least 90 days prior to expiration of the initial term that it does not want such a renewal. The agreement provides that FDMX may increase the prices of the products that we purchase from it upon 180-days’ prior notice at any time, subject to certain conditions. The agreement further provides that FDMX may, at its option, discontinue products supplied under the agreement, provided that we are given one-year notice of the planned discontinuance and are provided with an end-of-sale purchase program. ● A chemical used in some of our inks is supplied by B.G. (Israel) Technologies Ltd., or BG Bond, a subsidiary of Ashtrom Ltd., a large public Israeli industrial company. The chemicals were previously supplied under a definitive agreement which has expired, and currently we purchase these chemicals on a purchase order basis. For most of our inks, another chemical is supplied by Brenntag a reseller of The Dow Chemical Company, a multinational producer of chemicals and other compounds. We currently purchase these chemicals on a purchase order basis. ● Dispersing agents used in some of our inks are supplied by BASF SE, which to our knowledge is the only source of supply of those agents. We purchase these dispersing agents from BASF on a purchase order basis. We maintain safety stock of these chemicals in an amount which will allow us to continue our manufacturing for several fiscal quarters in case of discontinuation. ● Several raw materials and pigments used in some of our inks are supplied by Heubach Group. We currently purchase these raw materials and pigments on a purchase order basis. We maintain safety stock of these raw materials and pigments in an amount which will allow us to continue our manufacturing for several fiscal quarters in case of discontinuation. We are currently in the process of entering into a long-term supply agreement with Heubach Group. 6 ● Certain parts of the control system of our systems are supplied by sole suppliers, Yaskawa Europe Technology Ltd., an affiliate of Yaskawa Electric Corporation, or Yaskawa, and Beckhoff Automation Limited. Our turnkey suppliers (Flex and Sanmina- SCI Israel Medical Systems Ltd.), which assemble the control system on our behalf, purchase those control system parts from Yaskawa and Beckhoff. We also purchase additional, spare control system parts from Yaskawa and Beckhoff for our service department on a purchase order basis. ● Some of our printing systems are compatible with a dryer that we purchase from Adelco Screen Process, or Adelco, which fulfills most of the demand for that dryer. The dryer is supplied under an April 2019 agreement that we entered into with Adelco. The loss of any of these suppliers, or of a supplier for which there are limited other sources, could result in the delay of the manufacture and delivery of our systems or inks and other consumables. For instance, FDMX has from time to time indicated that it may discontinue manufacturing the print head that we currently source from it and use in our systems, although it has never provided notice that it is actually doing so. In the event FDMX discontinues manufacturing the print head, we would be required to qualify a new print head for our systems (based only on whatever knowledge we have gained from qualifying print heads in the past). In order to minimize the risk of any impact from a disruption or discontinuation in the supply of print heads, raw materials or other components from limited source suppliers, we maintain an additional inventory of such components, in addition to the end-of-life purchase program that would be available to us if the products we purchase from FDMX were discontinued. Nevertheless, such inventory may not be sufficient to enable us to continue supplying our products for a longer period, should we need to locate and qualify a new supplier. Other risks resulting from our reliance on suppliers include: ● if we experience an increase in demand for our solutions, our suppliers may be unable to provide us with the components that we need in order to meet that increased demand in a timely manner; ● our suppliers may encounter financial hardships unrelated to our demand for components, which could inhibit their ability to fulfill our orders and meet our requirements; ● we may experience production delays related to the evaluation and testing of products from alternative suppliers; ● we may be subject to price fluctuations due to a lack of long-term supply arrangements for key components; ● we or our suppliers may lose access to critical services and components, resulting in an interruption in the manufacture, assembly and shipment of our systems or inks and other consumables; and ● fluctuations in demand for components that our suppliers manufacture for others may affect their ability or willingness to deliver components to us in a timely manner. If any of these risks materializes, the costs associated with developing alternative sources of supply or assembly in a timely manner could have a material adverse effect on our ability to meet demand for our solutions; our ability to generate revenues could be impaired, market acceptance of our solutions could be adversely affected, and customers may instead purchase or use alternative products. We may not be able to find new or alternative components of a requisite quality or find that we are unable to reconfigure our systems and manufacturing processes in a timely manner if the necessary components become unavailable. As a result, we could incur increased production costs, experience delays in the delivery of our solutions and suffer harm to our reputation, which may have an adverse effect on our business and results of operations. 7 Overcapacity in the global printed fashion and textile industries has caused and may continue to cause our customers to underutilize existing printing systems that they have purchased from us and to reduce their orders for new systems. That could similarly cause us to underutilize our new ink manufacturing facility. Such a trend could reduce our operating margins and have a material adverse effect on our financial performance. It is difficult to predict future demand for printing in the global printed fashion and textile industries in which we operate, which makes it challenging for our customers to estimate future requirements for production capacity and avoid periods of overcapacity. Fluctuations in the growth rate of our customers’ businesses relative to the growth rate in demand for our printing systems also can lead to overcapacity for our customers and contribute to cyclicality in the market for our systems. Capacity expansion projects have long lead times and require capital commitments based on forecasted product trends and demand well in advance of production orders from customers. In recent years, we have made significant capital investments to expand our systems and materials capacity to address forecasted future demand patterns, including our investment in our ink manufacturing facility in Kiryat Gat. These capacity additions may exceed the near-term demand requirements for our products, including both systems and consumables, leading to overcapacity situations and underutilization of our manufacturing facilities. As many of our manufacturing costs are fixed, these costs cannot be reduced in proportion to the reduced revenues experienced during periods of underutilization. Underutilization of our manufacturing facilities can adversely affect our gross margin and other operating results. If demand for our products experiences a prolonged decrease, we may be required to close or idle facilities and write down our long-lived assets or shorten the useful lives of underutilized assets and accelerate depreciation, which would increase our expenses. Our move towards a higher proportion of direct sales in place of indirect sales may have adverse consequences. Our go-to-market strategy consists of a hybrid model of indirect and direct sales, depending on the specific territory into which we are selling. We continually evaluate that strategy in the geographies we serve in an effort to best serve our direct or indirect customers. When we shift towards a direct sales model in relevant territories, we may experience an initial disruption to our sales efforts in those jurisdictions as we transition from our previous sales structure. In addition, a shift to a direct sales model might result in a short-term impact on our results of operations, including due to separation fees, the acquisition of inventory that requires a step up in basis and other such accounting impacts and costs associated with increased headcount and related expenses. Our Kiryat Gat ink manufacturing facility was constructed on lands leased by us from the Israel Lands Administration, or ILA, under a long term (49 years) lease agreement. If we are unable to continue to lease such lands, we would be unable to use the facility and our results of operations and future prospects will suffer as a result. In November 2018, we entered into a development agreement, which we refer to as the Development Agreement, with the ILA for the construction of our ink manufacturing facility in Kiryat Gat on lands leased from the ILA. Construction was concluded at the end of 2021, and we officially opened the facility on January 26, 2022. Following the completion of the construction and our receipt of all required approvals from the ILA, we entered into a long-term lease agreement with the ILA, or the Lease Agreement, for a period of 49 years and which may be renewed for an additional 49 years, which agreement has replaced the Development Agreement. The Development Agreement provided, and the Lease Agreement provides, that if our company were a “foreign subject,” which includes being under foreign control (i.e., a majority of our ordinary shares held by non-Israelis), that would constitute a fundamental breach under the agreement. We followed (in the case of each of the Development Agreement and the Lease Agreement) a specific standard process for seeking approval from the ILA for our entering into the agreement. However, because of our potential status as a “foreign subject,” given that our shares are traded on Nasdaq and are held by multiple shareholders whose identities are unknown, the ILA would be entitled to terminate that agreement if it determines that our company is a “foreign subject”. If the Lease Agreement is terminated, we would be unable to use the new Kiryat Gat facility constructed on that property, which would have a material adverse effect on our results of operations. 8 Disruption of operations at our manufacturing site or those of third-party manufacturers could prevent us from filling customer orders on a timely basis. We manufacture our ink and other consumables at our new, modern facility in Kiryat Gat, Israel, and our curing systems are manufactured in Tesoma’s facilities. We also rely on contract manufacturing services provided by Flex, and Sanmina-SCI Israel Medical Systems Ltd. which are also in Israel, to assemble our systems. We expect that almost all of our revenues in the near term will be derived from the systems and ink and other consumables manufactured at these facilities. The loss of any of these contract manufacturers could result in the delay of the assembly and delivery of our systems. If that occurs or these contract manufacturers cease to provide manufacturing services for any reason, the costs associated with developing alternative sources of assembly in a timely manner could have a material adverse effect on our ability to meet demand for our solutions. Our ability to generate revenues could be impaired, market acceptance of our solutions could be adversely affected, and customers may instead purchase or use alternative products. If operations in any of these facilities were to be disrupted due to a major equipment failure or power failure lasting beyond the capabilities of backup generators or other events outside of our reasonable control, our manufacturing capacity could be shut down for an extended period, we could experience a loss of raw materials or finished goods inventory and our ability to operate our business would be harmed. In addition, in any such event, the repair or reconstruction of our or our third-party manufacturers’ manufacturing facilities and storage facilities could take a significant amount of time. During this period, we or our third-party manufacturers would be unable to manufacture some or all of our systems or we may not be able to produce our ink and other consumables. Significant disruptions of our information technology systems or breaches of our data security could adversely affect our business. A significant invasion, interruption, destruction or breakdown of our information technology, or IT, systems and/or infrastructure by persons with authorized or unauthorized access could negatively impact our business and operations. We could also experience business interruption, information theft and/or reputational damage from cyber-attacks, which may compromise our systems and lead to data leakage either internally or at our third party suppliers or customers. Both data that has been inputted into our main IT platform, which covers records of customers, end-users of our systems, transactions, financial data, employees, pricing and other data reflected in our results of operations, as well as data related to our proprietary rights (such as research and development, and other intellectual property- related data, including: ink formulas; source code for our systems, software and cloud services; undisclosed plans; and email lists), are subject to material cyber security risks. Our IT systems have been, and are expected to continue to be, the target of malware and other cyber-attacks. To date, we are not aware of any loss of, or disruption to, material information as a result of any such malware or cyber-attack. To the extent that a cyber-attack is successful, we could incur significant expense, depending on the severity of the attack, We have invested in advanced protective systems to reduce our cybersecurity and data protection risks, some of which have been installed and others that are still in the process of installation. In addition, we back up our data regularly. We have designated a special committee to assess our cybersecurity and data protection risks and develop and implement a data security policy. We also created an annual program to ensure our data safety. This program includes self-evaluations, auditing, tests, and third-party evaluation. Based on information provided to us by the suppliers of our protective systems, we believe that our level of protection is in keeping with the customary practices of peer technology companies. We also maintain back-up files for much of our information, as a means of assuring that a breach or cyber-attack does not necessarily cause the loss of that information. We furthermore review our protections and remedial measures periodically in order to ensure that they are adequate, and, accordingly, we carry customary levels of cybersecurity and data protection insurance coverage. 9 Despite these protective systems and remedial measures, techniques used to obtain unauthorized access are constantly changing, are becoming increasingly more sophisticated and often are not recognized until after an exploitation of information has occurred. We may be unable to anticipate these techniques or implement sufficient preventative measures, and we therefore cannot assure you that our preventative measures will be successful in preventing compromise and/or disruption of our information technology systems and related data. We furthermore cannot be certain that our remedial measures will fully mitigate the adverse financial consequences of any cyber-attack or incident. We and our customers are subject to extensive environmental, health and safety laws and regulations which, if not met, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Our manufacturing and development facilities use chemicals and produce waste materials, which require us to hold business licenses that may include conditions set by the Ministry of Environmental Protection for the operations of such facilities. We are also subject to extensive environmental, health and safety laws and regulations governing, among other things, the use, storage, registration, handling and disposal of chemicals and waste materials, the presence of specified substances in electrical products, air, water and ground contamination, air emissions and the clean-up of contaminated sites. In the future we may incur expenditure of significant amounts in the event of non-compliance and/or remediation. Furthermore, requirements of environmental laws have adversely affected and may continue to adversely affect the ability of our customers to install and use our systems in a timely manner. If we fail to comply with such laws or regulations, we may be subject to fines and other civil, administrative or criminal sanctions, including the revocation of our toxin permit, business permits, or other permits and licenses necessary to continue our business activities. In addition, we may be required to pay damages or civil judgments in respect of third-party claims, including those relating to personal injury, including exposure to hazardous substances that we use, store, handle, transport, manufacture or dispose of, or property damage. Some environmental, health and safety laws and regulations allow for strict, joint and several liability for remediation costs, regardless of comparative fault. We may be identified as a potentially responsible party under such laws. In addition, our customers may encounter delays in obtaining or be unable to obtain regulatory permits to operate our systems in their facilities, which may result in cancellation or delay of orders of our systems. The export of our products internationally subjects us to environmental laws and regulations concerning the import and export of chemicals and hazardous substances. In the European marketplace, electrical and electronic equipment is required to comply with the Directive on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment, or WEEE, which aims to prevent waste by encouraging reuse and recycling, and the Directive on Restriction of Use of Certain Hazardous Substances, or RoHS, which restricts the use of ten hazardous substances in electrical and electronic products. Additionally, we are required to comply with certain laws, regulations and directives such as the United States Toxic Substances Control Act, or TSCA, and the Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemical Substances, or REACH. These laws and regulations may require the testing and registration of some chemicals that we ship along with, or that form a part of, our systems and other products. If we fail to comply with these or similar laws and regulations, we may be required to make significant expenditures to reformulate the chemicals that we use in our products and materials or incur costs to register such chemicals to gain and/or regain compliance. Additionally, we could be subject to significant fines or other civil and criminal penalties should we not achieve such compliance. Any such developments could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Environmental, health and safety laws and regulations may also change from time to time. Complying with any new requirements may involve substantial costs and could cause significant disruptions to our research, development, manufacturing, and sales. Achieving our published goals with respect to the environmental impact of our operations and products could result in us incurring additional costs, and our failure to achieve these goals could adversely impact our reputation, employee retention, and willingness of customers to do business with us. Investor advocacy groups, certain institutional investors, investment funds, lenders and other market participants, shareholders, and customers have focused increasingly on the environmental, social, and governance (ESG) or “sustainability” practices of companies. These parties have placed increased importance on the implications of the social cost of their investments. Our 2022 Impact Report, released on August 10, 2023, monitors our long- term targets with respect to the environmental impact of our operations and products. These targets reflect our current plans and aspirations and are not guarantees that we will be able to achieve them. Our efforts to accomplish and accurately report on these goals and objectives present numerous operational, reputational, financial, legal and other risks, any of which could have a material negative impact. If we do not achieve these targets, or if our ESG practices generally do not meet investor, lender, or other industry stakeholder expectations and standards, which continue to evolve, our reputation and access to capital may be negatively impacted and we could be the subject of government investigations and enforcement actions and private litigation. Our share price and financial results may be adversely affected as a result of such events or if we fail to achieve targets that we have set. 10 Our 2022 Impact Report discussed our policies and practices on a variety of environmental, social and ethical matters, including corporate governance, climate change risks, environmental compliance, employee health and safety practices, human capital management, and workforce inclusion and diversity. It is possible that stakeholders may be dissatisfied with our ESG practices or the speed of their adoption. We expect to incur additional costs and require additional resources to monitor, report, and comply with various ESG practices. This area is rapidly developing, and a failure or perceived failure by us to set appropriate goals and prioritize ESG practices could negatively impact our reputation, employee retention, and the willingness of our customers to do business with us. Exchange rate fluctuations between the U.S. dollar and the Israeli shekel, the Euro and other non-U.S. currencies may negatively affect our earnings. The U.S. dollar is our functional and reporting currency. However, a significant portion of our operating expenses are incurred in Israeli shekels, or NIS. As a result, we are exposed to the risk that the NIS may appreciate relative to the dollar, or, if the NIS instead devalues relative to the dollar, that the inflation rate in Israel may exceed such rate of devaluation of the NIS, or that the timing of such devaluation may lag inflation in Israel. In any such event, the dollar cost of our operations in Israel would increase and our dollar-denominated results of operations would be adversely affected. To protect against an increase the dollar-denominated value of expenses paid in NIS during the year, we have instituted a foreign currency cash flow hedging program, which seeks to hedge a portion of the economic exposure associated with our anticipated NIS-denominated expenses using derivative instruments. We expect that the substantial majority of our revenues will continue to be denominated in U.S. dollars for the foreseeable future and that a significant portion of our expenses will continue to be denominated in NIS. We cannot provide any assurances that our hedging activities will be successful in protecting us in full from adverse impacts from currency exchange rate fluctuations since we only plan to hedge a portion of our foreign currency exposure, and we cannot predict any future trends in the rate of inflation in Israel or the rate of devaluation (if any) of the NIS against the dollar For example, based on annual average exchange rates, the NIS appreciated by 6.2% against the dollar in 2021, before depreciating against the dollar by 4.0% in 2022 and 9.7% in 2023. During these periods, there was inflation of 2.8%, 5.3% and 3.0% in Israel in 2021, 2022 and 2023, respectively. If the dollar cost of our operations continues to increase, our dollar-measured results of operations will be adversely affected. See “ITEM 11. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk-Foreign Currency Risk.” In addition, a material portion of our leases are denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, mainly in NIS. In accordance with a lease accounting standard, which became effective on January 1, 2019, the associated lease liabilities will be remeasured using the current exchange rate in future reporting periods, which may result in material foreign exchange gains or losses. See Note 2, “Significant Accounting Policies”, to the consolidated financial statements included in Item 18 of this annual report for more details. Our business could suffer if we are unable to attract and retain key employees. Our success depends upon the continued service and performance of our senior management and other key personnel. Our senior executive team is critical to the management of our business and operations, as well as to the development of our strategies. The loss of the services of any of these personnel could delay or prevent the continued successful implementation of our growth strategy, or our commercialization of new applications for our systems and ink and other consumables or could otherwise affect our ability to manage our company effectively and to carry out our business plan. Members of our senior management team may resign at any time. High demand exists for senior management and other key personnel in our industry. There can be no assurance that we will be able to continue to retain such personnel. We have recently experienced changes in senior personnel, notably, our chief commercial officer in September 2023, our EVP operations in December 2023, our CMO and our EVP corporate development in June 2024, and certain changes in our regional presidents’ roles. To the extent that we experience additional frequent changes in our leadership team (or the leadership teams of our subsidiaries) going forward, that could adversely affect our performance in a material manner. 11 Our growth and success also depend on our ability to attract and retain additional highly qualified scientific, technical, sales, managerial, operational, HR, marketing and finance personnel. We compete to attract qualified personnel, and, in some jurisdictions in which we operate, the existence of non-competition agreements between prospective employees and their former employers may prevent us from hiring those individuals or subject us to lawsuits from their former employers. While we attempt to provide competitive compensation packages to attract and retain key personnel, some of our competitors have greater resources and more experience than we have, making it difficult for us to compete successfully for key personnel. If we cannot attract and retain sufficiently qualified technical employees for our research and development operations on acceptable terms, we may not be able to continue to competitively develop and commercialize our solutions or new applications for our existing systems. Further, any failure to effectively integrate new personnel could prevent us from successfully growing our company. Under applicable employment laws, we may not be able to enforce covenants not to compete and therefore may be unable to prevent our competitors from benefiting from the expertise of some of our former employees. We generally enter into non-competition agreements with our employees. These agreements prohibit our employees, if they cease working for us, from competing directly with us or working for our competitors or clients for a limited period. We may be unable to enforce these agreements under the laws of the jurisdictions in which our employees work and it may be difficult for us to restrict our competitors from benefiting from the expertise that our former employees or consultants developed while working for us. For example, Israeli labor courts have required employers seeking to enforce non- compete undertakings of a former employee to demonstrate that the competitive activities of the former employee will harm one of a limited number of material interests of the employer that have been recognized by the courts, such as the secrecy of a company’s trade secrets or other intellectual property. If we cannot demonstrate that such interests will be harmed, we may be unable to prevent our competitors from benefiting from the expertise of our former employees or consultants and our ability to remain competitive may be diminished. As to our U.S. operations, on the U.S. federal level, there was movement in 2023 by federal agencies to make noncompete agreements unenforceable in general. The Federal Trade Commission proposed a new rule to ban employers nationwide from using non-compete agreements with their employees and independent contractors, and the General Counsel of the National Labor Relations Board issued a memo in March 2023 opining that many types of non-compete and non-solicitation restrictions unlawfully interfere with employees’ protected rights under Section 7 of the National Labor Relations Act. If any of these proposed new U.S. federal restrictions becomes effective, or if any state in which we have operations continues to expand restrictions or bans the use of non-compete restrictions, that could adversely impact our ability to protect our investment in our key employees in our U.S. locations, and harm our competitive position. We have a significant presence in international markets and plan to continue to expand our international operations, which exposes us to a number of risks that could affect our future growth. We have a worldwide sales, marketing and support infrastructure that is comprised of independent distributors and value-added resellers, and our own personnel resulting in a global sales, marketing and support presence, including in North America, Western and Eastern Europe, the Asia Pacific region and Latin America. We continue to evaluate our overall workforce in all areas, including sales, applications development, field support, marketing and engineering and, in some cases, establish new relationships with agents, distributors or channel partners, particularly in markets where we currently do not have a sales or customer support presence. As we continue to expand our international sales and operations, we are subject to a number of risks, including the following: ● greater difficulty in enforcing contracts and accounts receivable collection, as well as longer collection periods; ● increased expenses incurred in establishing and maintaining office space and equipment for our international operations; ● fluctuations in exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies in markets where we do business; 12 ● greater difficulty in recruiting local experienced personnel, and the costs and expenses associated with such activities; ● general economic and political conditions in these foreign markets; ● management communication and integration problems resulting from cultural and geographic dispersion; ● the impact of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 and trade and monetary sanctions in response to such developments on the markets in which we operate; ● risks associated with trade restrictions and foreign legal requirements, including the importation, certification, and localization of our solutions required in foreign countries, such as high import taxes in Brazil and other Latin American markets where we sell our products; ● greater risk of unexpected changes in regulatory practices, tariffs, and tax laws and treaties; ● the uncertainty of protection for intellectual property rights in some countries; ● greater risk of a failure of employees to comply with both U.S. and foreign laws, including antitrust regulations, the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, or FCPA, the European Union General Data Protection Regulation, or GDPR (which broadened the scope of personal privacy laws to protect the rights of European Union citizens and requires organizations to report on data breaches promptly and obtain the consent of individuals on how their data can be used), the California Consumer Privacy Act, or CCPA (which imposes enhanced disclosure requirements for us vis-à-vis our interactions with customers that are residents of California), and any trade regulations ensuring fair trade practices; and ● heightened risk of unfair or corrupt business practices in certain regions and of improper or fraudulent sales arrangements that may impact financial results and result in restatements of, or irregularities in, financial statements. Any of these risks could adversely affect our international operations, reduce our revenues from outside the United States or increase our operating costs, adversely affecting our business, reputation, results of operations and financial condition and growth prospects. There can be no assurance that all of our employees and channel partners will comply with the formal policies that we have in place and/or will implement them, or will adhere to all applicable laws and regulations. Violations of laws or key control policies by our employees and channel partners could result in delays in revenue recognition, financial reporting misstatements, fines, penalties or the prohibition of the importation or exportation of our products and services and could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations. We manufacture and sell products that may create exposure to product liability, warranty liability, or personal injury claims and litigation that may harm our business and results of operations. Product quality and safety issues could negatively impact consumer confidence in our brand and our business. Our products may not successfully achieve applicable safety standards or customers’ expectations regarding safety or quality. Our products may contain or, be alleged to contain, components containing hazardous materials that may present certain health, safety, or quality concerns. Additionally, from time to time, system errors and/or deficiencies may be discovered in the design, manufacturing, assembling, labeling and product formulations of our systems, parts, ink, and other consumables, and associated software. Hazardous materials, errors, and/or deficiencies may also be identified in materials, components, and systems produced by others and used with or incorporated into our products. Some of these issues may not be apparent until after certain products are installed or used by customers, including in circumstances where a product is first introduced, or a new version is released. We expect that these errors or defects will be found from time to time in new or enhanced systems after commencement of commercial distribution or upon software upgrades. 13 To the extent that any error, deficiency, or hazardous component (which presents a safety concern) exists in any of our products and is not discovered and corrected before a product is introduced to the market, such product could be unsafe and/or could cause damage, including property damage, personal injury, or death. In such circumstances, the actual, potential, or perceived product safety concerns and/or defects in the manufacturing or design, a failure to warn of dangers inherent in the product, negligence, or strict liability could expose us to litigation relating to product liability, warranty liability, or personal injury, as well as government enforcement actions. Such litigation could force us to incur significant expenses, divert management’s time and attention, subject us to adverse publicity, and damage our reputation and competitive position. A successful assertion of a claim against us may result in potentially significant monetary damages, penalties, or fines and adversely affect sales of our products. Although we carry insurance policies covering this type of liability, these policies may not provide sufficient protection should a claim be asserted against us. In addition, costs or payments made in connection with warranty and product liability claims and system recalls could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations in a material manner. Product liability claims, injuries, defects, or other problems experienced by other companies in the digital printing industry could lead to unfavorable market conditions for the industry as a whole. We have acquired businesses and may acquire other businesses and/or companies, which could require significant management attention, disrupt our business, dilute shareholder value, and adversely affect our results of operations. As part of our business strategy, we have acquired businesses and may acquire or make investments in other complementary companies, products or technologies. If we are unsuccessful at integrating such acquisitions or the technologies associated with such acquisitions, our revenues and results of operations may be adversely affected. Any integration process may require significant time and resources, and we may not be able to manage the process successfully. We may not be able to find suitable acquisition candidates, and we may not be able to complete such acquisitions on favorable terms, if at all. If we complete other acquisitions, we may not ultimately strengthen our competitive position or achieve our goals, and any acquisitions we complete could be viewed negatively by our customers, analysts and investors. In addition, we may not successfully evaluate or utilize the acquired technology or personnel, or accurately forecast the financial impact of an acquisition transaction, including accounting charges. We may have to pay cash, incur debt or issue equity securities to pay for any such acquisition, each of which could adversely affect our financial condition or the value of our ordinary shares. The sale of equity or issuance of debt to finance any such acquisitions could result in dilution to our shareholders. The incurrence of indebtedness would result in increased fixed obligations and could also include covenants or other restrictions that would impede our ability to manage our operations. We may be subject to additional tax liabilities in the future as a result of audits of our tax returns. We are subject to income taxes principally in Israel, United States, Germany, Hong-Kong, United Kingdom, and Japan. Significant judgment is required in evaluating our uncertain tax positions and determining our provision for income taxes, and if the relevant tax authority does not agree with the positions that we take, we could be subject to tax audit and face significant tax liabilities, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations. We were recently subject to such a tax audit for the years 2020 to 2021 by the Israeli Tax Authority, or ITA, in respect of which we ultimately reached a settlement with the ITA. We account for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” ASC 740, which prescribes the use of the liability method, whereby deferred tax asset and liability account balances are determined based on differences between financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. We account for uncertain tax positions in accordance with ASC 740-10 two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates that it is more likely than not that, on an evaluation of the technical merits, the tax position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount that is more than 50% (cumulative probability) likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement. We currently maintain reserves for uncertain tax positions. If the potential tax liabilities in respect of which we have taken these reserves exceed the amount of those reserves, that may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations. For more information on our tax positions please refer to Note 14 to our financial statements that appear in Item 18 of this annual report. 14 We are subject to risks associated with the provision of KornitX cloud-based software KornitX is a subscription software service for the management of on-demand production. We do not expect the KornitX offering to have a material impact on our overall results of operations in the very near term; however, we believe that it nonetheless exposes us to a number of potential risks, including the following: ● software bugs and defects that adversely impact our customer’s production processes; ● unauthorized access, data breaches and/or loss of customer data, including data regarding payment methods; ● use of unauthorized open source software or other infringements of third-party intellectual property; ● challenges providing support to software users; and ● challenges related to our required delivery of the service level agreements under the virtual supplier model that we utilize for our KornitX offering. If any of the foregoing risks materializes, our reputation may be adversely impacted, which could, in turn, adversely impact sales of our products and diminish customer confidence in us. We are subject to litigation. Any current or future lawsuits to which we are subject may have a significant adverse effect on our financial condition or profitability. We are currently subject to securities class action litigation (as described below in “ITEM 8.A Financial Information- Legal Proceedings- Securities Class Action Lawsuit”) and could be subject to further litigation in the future. We can provide no assurance as to the outcome of any current or future lawsuits, and any such actions may result in judgments against us for significant damages. Resolution of any such matters can be prolonged and costly, and the ultimate results or judgments are uncertain due to the inherent uncertainty in litigation and other proceedings. Moreover, our potential liabilities are subject to change over time due to new developments, changes in settlement strategy or the impact of evidentiary requirements. Regardless of the outcome, litigation has resulted in the past, and may result in the future, in significant legal expenses and require significant attention and resources of management. As a result, any present or future litigation could result in losses, damages and expenses that have a significant adverse effect on our financial condition and profitability. Risks Related to Intellectual Property If we are unable to obtain patent protection for our solutions or otherwise protect our intellectual property rights, our business could suffer. The success of our business depends on our ability to protect our proprietary technology and other intellectual property and to enforce our rights in that intellectual property. We attempt to protect our intellectual property under patent, trademark, copyright and trade secret laws, and through a combination of confidentiality procedures, contractual provisions and other methods, all of which offer only limited protection. 15 As of December 31, 2023, we owned 53 issued patents in the United States and 24 provisional or pending U.S. patent applications, along with 39 pending non-U.S. patent applications. We also had 35 patents issued in non-U.S. jurisdictions, and 13 pending Patent Cooperation Treaty patent applications, which are counterparts of our U.S. patent applications. The non-U.S. jurisdictions in which we have issued patents or pending applications are China, the European Union or European countries of the European Union including 3 Unitary Patents, Mexico, Israel, Canada, Australia, Republic of Korea, South Africa, Brazil, Japan and India. We may file additional patent applications in the future. The process of obtaining patent protection is expensive, time-consuming, and uncertain, and we may not be able to pursue all necessary or desirable patent applications at a reasonable cost or in a timely manner all the way through to the successful issuance of a patent. We may choose not to seek patent protection for certain innovations and may choose not to pursue patent protection in certain jurisdictions. Furthermore, it is possible that our patent applications may not issue as granted patents, that the scope of our issued patents will be insufficient or not have the coverage originally sought, that our issued patents will not provide us with any competitive advantages, and that our patents and other intellectual property rights may be challenged by others through administrative processes or litigation resulting in patent claims being narrowed, invalidated, or unenforceable. In addition, issuance of a patent does not guarantee that we have an absolute right to practice the patented invention. Our policy is to require our employees (and our consultants and service providers, including third-party manufacturers of our systems and components, that develop intellectual property included in our systems) to execute written agreements in which they assign to us their rights in potential inventions and other intellectual property created within the scope of their employment (or, with respect to consultants and service providers, their engagement to develop such intellectual property), but we cannot assure you that we have adequately protected our rights in every such agreement or that we have executed an agreement with every such party. Finally, in order to benefit from the protection of patents and other intellectual property rights, we must monitor and detect infringement and pursue infringement claims in certain circumstances in relevant jurisdictions, all of which are costly and time-consuming. As a result, we may not be able to obtain adequate protection or to effectively enforce our issued patents or other intellectual property rights. In addition to patents, we rely on trade secret rights, copyrights, trademarks, and other rights to protect our proprietary intellectual property and technology. Despite our efforts to protect our proprietary intellectual property and technology, unauthorized parties, including our employees, consultants, service providers or customers, may attempt to copy aspects of our solutions or obtain and use our trade secrets or other confidential information. We generally enter into confidentiality agreements with our employees, consultants, service providers, vendors, channel partners and customers, and generally limit access to and distribution of our proprietary information and proprietary technology through certain procedural safeguards. These agreements may not effectively prevent unauthorized use or disclosure of our intellectual property or technology and may not provide an adequate remedy in the event of unauthorized use or disclosure of our intellectual property or technology. We cannot assure that the steps taken by us will prevent misappropriation of our intellectual property or technology or infringement of our intellectual property rights. In addition, the laws of some foreign countries where we sell or distribute our solutions do not protect intellectual property rights and technology to the same extent as the laws of the United States, and these countries may not enforce these laws as diligently as government agencies and private parties in the United States. Based on the 2022 report on intellectual property rights protection and enforcement published by the Office of the United States Trade Representative, such countries included Argentina, Chile, China, India, Indonesia, Russia, and Venezuela (designated as priority watch list countries). If we are unable to protect our trademarks from infringement, our business prospects may be harmed. We own trademarks that identify “Kornit”, “NeoPigment”, the “K” logo and “Konnect” logo, and we have an additional trademark registration for the “Custom Gateway” logo, among others, and have registered these trademarks in certain key markets. We further own trademark registrations and applications for VOXEL8, VOXEL8 logo, ACTIVEIMAGE, ACTIVELAB and ACTIVEMIX in certain key markets. Although we take steps to monitor the possible infringement or misuse of our trademarks, third parties may violate our trademark rights. Any unauthorized use of our trademarks could harm our reputation or commercial interests. Efforts to enforce our trademarks may be expensive and time-consuming and may not effectively prevent infringement. We may not register our trademark rights in all the markets in which we sell our products, and our application to register our trademarks in various jurisdictions may be opposed by third parties (as has occurred in the past), which could require investment of additional time and resources on our part in order to secure registration of those rights. If we do not succeed, our trademarks will be exposed to infringement in a particular jurisdiction, which could have various adverse effects on our operations in that jurisdiction. 16 We may become subject to claims of intellectual property infringement by third parties or claims by third parties that our intellectual party rights are invalid and may be required to indemnify our distributors or other third parties against such claims, which, regardless of their merit, could result in litigation, distract our management and materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. We have in the past and may in the future become subject to third-party claims that assert that our solutions, services and intellectual property infringe, misappropriate or otherwise violate third-party intellectual property or other proprietary rights. We, in turn, will seek to assert the validity of our intellectual property rights by any legal means that we deem necessary or appropriate in response to any actual or perceived threats. Intellectual property disputes can be costly and disruptive to our business operations by diverting the attention and energies of management and key technical personnel, and by increasing our costs of doing business. Even if a claim is not directly against us, our agreements with distributors generally require us to indemnify them against losses from claims that our products infringe third-party intellectual property rights and entitle us to assume the defense of any claim as part of the indemnification undertaking. Our assumption of the defense of such a claim may result in similar costs, disruption and diversion of management attention to that of a claim that is asserted directly against us. We may not prevail in any such dispute or litigation, and an adverse decision in any legal action involving intellectual property rights could harm our intellectual property rights and the value of any related technology or limit our ability to execute our business. Adverse outcomes in intellectual property disputes could: ● require us to redesign our technology or force us to enter into costly settlement or license agreements on terms that are unfavorable to us; ● prevent us from manufacturing, importing, using, or selling some or all of our solutions; ● disrupt our operations or the markets in which we compete; ● impose costly damage awards; ● require us to indemnify our distributors and customers; and ● require us to pay royalties. We may become subject to claims for remuneration or royalties for assigned service invention rights by our employees, which could result in litigation and adversely affect our business. A significant portion of our intellectual property has been developed by our employees in the course of their employment for us. Under the Israeli Patent Law, 5727-1967, or the Patent Law, inventions conceived by an employee in the course and as a result of or arising from his or her employment with a company are regarded as “service inventions,” which belong to the employer, absent a specific agreement between the employee and employer giving the employee proprietary rights. The Patent Law also provides under Section 134 that if there is no agreement between an employer and an employee as to whether the employee is entitled to consideration for service inventions, and to what extent and under which conditions, the Israeli Compensation and Royalties Committee, or the Committee, a body constituted under the Patent Law, shall determine these issues. Section 135 of the Patent Law provides criteria for assisting the Committee in making its decisions. According to case law handed down by the Committee, an employee’s right to receive consideration for service inventions is a personal right and is entirely separate from the proprietary rights in such invention. Therefore, this right must be explicitly waived by the employee. A decision handed down in May 2014 by the Committee clarifies that the right to receive consideration under Section 134 can be waived and that such waiver can be made orally, in writing or by behavior like any other contract. The Committee will examine on a case-by- case basis, the general contractual framework between the parties, using interpretation rules of the general Israeli contract laws. Further, the Committee has not yet determined one specific formula for calculating this remuneration, nor the criteria or circumstances under which an employee’s waiver of his right to remuneration will be disregarded. Similarly, it remains unclear whether waivers by employees in their employment agreements of the alleged right to receive consideration for service inventions would be declared as void being a depriving provision in a standard contract. We generally enter into assignment-of-invention agreements with our employees pursuant to which such individuals assign to us all rights to any inventions created in the scope of their employment or engagement with us. Although our employees have agreed to assign to us service invention rights and have specifically waived their right to receive any special remuneration for such service inventions beyond their regular salary and benefits, we may face claims demanding remuneration in consideration for assigned inventions. 17 Risks Related to Our Ordinary Shares Our share price may be volatile. The market price of our ordinary shares has been volatile in recent years. It may continue to fluctuate substantially as a result of many factors, including: ● actual or anticipated variations in our and/or our competitors’ results of operations and financial condition; ● variance in our financial performance from the expectations of market analysts; ● announcements by us or our competitors of significant business developments, changes in service provider relationships, acquisitions, strategic relationships or expansion plans; ● changes in the prices of our solutions; ● our involvement in litigation; ● our sale of ordinary shares or other securities in the future; ● market conditions in our industry; ● changes in key personnel; ● the trading volume of our ordinary shares; ● changes in the estimation of the future size and growth rate of our markets; and ● general economic and market conditions; In addition, recently, the stock markets have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations. Broad market and industry factors may materially harm the market price of our ordinary shares, regardless of our operating performance. In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a company’s securities, securities class action litigation has often been instituted against that company. We, too, along with certain of our current and former executives, and, in one case, our directors, the underwriters for our November 2021 follow-on public offering and Amazon, have been made subject to such securities class action litigation, which alleges that we made misrepresentations and omissions in our public statements and disclosures in violation of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder. If these actions or any similar litigation against us are not dismissed or settled at their early stages, we could incur substantial costs and our management’s attention and resources could be diverted. We have never paid cash dividends on our share capital, and we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. We have never declared or paid cash dividends on our share capital, nor do we anticipate paying any cash dividends on our share capital in the foreseeable future. We currently intend (subject to any extraordinary market conditions that might arise) to retain all available funds and any future earnings to fund the development and growth of our business. As a result, capital appreciation, if any, of our ordinary shares should be investors’ principal expected source of gain for the foreseeable future. To the extent that volatile or depressed market conditions reduce the trading price of our ordinary shares substantially for an extended period of time, we may potentially consider using a portion of our cash reserves for share repurchases, as we have done under a share repurchase plan of up to US$ 75 million initially approved by an Israeli court in December 2022, which was extended in July 2023 and again in January 2024. In addition to considerations related to corporate finance, Israeli law limits our ability to declare and pay dividends and may subject our dividends to Israeli withholding taxes. 18 As a foreign private issuer whose shares are listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market, we may follow certain home country corporate governance practices instead of otherwise applicable SEC and Nasdaq requirements, which may result in less protection than is accorded to investors under rules applicable to domestic U.S. issuers. As a foreign private issuer whose shares are listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market, we are permitted to follow certain home country corporate governance practices instead of those otherwise required under the corporate governance standards for U.S. domestic issuers. We currently follow Israeli home country practices with regard to the (i) quorum requirement for shareholder meetings (25%, which is less than the one-third minimum required under the Nasdaq rules) and (ii) independent director oversight requirement for director nominations (the board as a whole, rather than an entirely independent nominating committee or only the independent directors, handles this under Israeli law). See “ITEM 16G. Corporate Governance.” Furthermore, we may in the future elect to follow Israeli home country practices in lieu of the Nasdaq requirements on other matters, such as the requirement to hold separate executive sessions of independent directors or to obtain shareholder approval for certain dilutive events (such as for the establishment or amendment of certain equity-based compensation plans, issuances that will result in a change of control of the company, certain transactions other than a public offering involving issuances of a 20% or more interest in the company and certain acquisitions of the stock or assets of another company). Accordingly, our shareholders may not be afforded the same protection as provided under Nasdaq corporate governance rules. Following our home country governance practices as opposed to the requirements that would otherwise apply to a United States company listed on Nasdaq may provide less protection than is accorded to investors of domestic issuers. See “ITEM 16G. Corporate Governance.” As a foreign private issuer, we are not subject to the U.S. proxy rules and are exempt from filing certain Exchange Act reports. As a foreign private issuer, we are exempt from a number of requirements under U.S. securities laws that apply to public companies that are not foreign private issuers. In particular, we are exempt from the rules and regulations under the Exchange Act related to the furnishing and content of proxy statements, and our officers, directors and principal shareholders are exempt from the reporting and short-swing profit recovery provisions contained in Section 16 of the Exchange Act. In addition, we are not required under the Exchange Act to file annual and current reports and financial statements with the SEC as frequently or as promptly as U.S. domestic companies whose securities are registered under the Exchange Act and we are generally exempt from filing quarterly reports with the SEC under the Exchange Act. These exemptions and leniencies will reduce the frequency and scope of information and protections to which you are entitled as an investor. We would lose our foreign private issuer status if a majority of our directors or executive officers are U.S. citizens or residents, and we fail to meet additional requirements necessary to avoid loss of foreign private issuer status. Although we have elected to comply with certain U.S. regulatory provisions, our loss of foreign private issuer status would make such provisions mandatory. The regulatory and compliance costs to us under U.S. securities laws as a U.S. domestic issuer may be significantly higher. If we are not a foreign private issuer, we will be required to file periodic reports and registration statements on U.S. domestic issuer forms with the SEC, which are more detailed and extensive than the forms available to a foreign private issuer. We would also be required to follow U.S. proxy disclosure requirements, including the requirement to disclose more detailed information about the compensation of our senior executive officers on an individual basis. We may also be required to modify certain of our policies to comply with governance practices associated with U.S. domestic issuers. In addition, we would lose our ability to rely upon exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements on U.S. stock exchanges that are available to foreign private issuers. Such additional required compliance would involve additional costs. The market price of our ordinary shares could be negatively affected by future sales of our ordinary shares. Future sales by us or our shareholders of a substantial number of ordinary shares in the public market, or the perception that these sales might occur, could cause the market price of our ordinary shares to decline or could impair our ability to raise capital through a future sale of, or to pay for acquisitions using, our equity securities. 19 Amazon is entitled to certain registration rights with respect to the 3,401,028 ordinary shares underlying new warrants that we issued to its affiliate on September 14, 2020, pursuant to a transaction agreement that we entered into with Amazon on that day. All shares sold pursuant to an offering covered by a registration statement will be freely transferable except if purchased by an affiliate. See “ITEM 10.C- Material Contracts- Agreements with Amazon- Transaction Agreement and Warrant” in this annual report. In addition, 2,107,696 ordinary shares are issuable under currently vested and exercisable share options and unvested restricted share units, or RSUs, in the aggregate, granted to employees and office holders as of December 31, 2023. We have filed registration statements on Form S-8 under the Securities Act registering our potential issuance of those ordinary shares under our share incentive plans, of which, as of December 31, 2023, there were options, RSUs and warrants to purchase 4,094,530 shares outstanding. Shares included in such registration statements may be freely sold in the public market upon issuance, except for shares held by affiliates who have certain restrictions on their ability to sell. As a public company, we are required to devote substantial time towards maintaining the effectiveness of our internal controls and to other compliance initiatives and corporate governance practices. We incur significant legal, accounting and other expenses as a public company. Applicable U.S. securities laws and regulations and the listing requirements of the Nasdaq Stock Market impose various requirements on public companies, including the establishment and maintenance of effective disclosure and financial controls and corporate governance practices. Our management and other personnel continue to devote a substantial amount of time to these compliance initiatives. In particular, we are required to comply with the SEC’s rules implementing Sections 302 and 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, which require management to certify financial and other information in our annual reports and provide an annual management report on the effectiveness of control over financial reporting. Additionally, as we are no longer an emerging growth company and qualify as a large, accelerated filer, we must include an attestation report on internal control over financial reporting issued by our independent registered public accounting firm. To maintain the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures and our internal control over financial reporting, we expect that we will need to continue enhancing existing, and implement new, financial reporting and management systems, procedures and controls to manage our business effectively and support our growth in the future. The process of evaluating our internal control over financial reporting requires an investment of substantial time and resources, including by our Chief Financial Officer and other members of our senior management. As a result, this process may divert internal resources and take a significant amount of time and effort to complete. Additionally, as part of management assessments of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting required by Section 404(a) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, our management may conclude that our internal control over financial reporting is not effective due to our failure to cure any identified material weakness or otherwise, which would require us to employ remedial actions to implement effective controls. If we identify material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, if we are unable to comply with the requirements of Section 404(a) or 404(b) in a timely manner or to assert that our internal control over financial reporting is effective, or if our independent registered public accounting firm is unable to express an opinion or issues an adverse opinion in its attestation as to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting required by Section 404(b), investors may lose confidence in the accuracy and completeness of our financial reports and the trading price of our ordinary shares could be negatively affected. We could also become subject to investigations by the stock exchange on which our securities are listed, the SEC or other regulatory authorities, which could require additional financial and management resources. Irrespective of compliance with Sections 404(a) and 404(b), any failure of our internal controls could have a material adverse effect on our stated results of operations and harm our reputation. In order to implement changes to our internal control over financial reporting triggered by a failure of those controls, we could experience higher than anticipated operating expenses, as well as higher independent auditor fees during and after the implementation of these changes. 20 Our U.S. shareholders may suffer adverse tax consequences if we are classified as a passive foreign investment company. Generally, if for any taxable year 75% or more of our gross income is passive income, or at least 50% of the average quarterly value of our assets (which may be determined in part by the market value of our ordinary shares, which is subject to change) are held for the production of, or produce, passive income, we would be characterized as a passive foreign investment company, or PFIC, for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Based on historic and certain estimates of our gross income, gross assets and market capitalization (which may fluctuate from time to time) and the nature of our business, we believe we were not a PFIC for the taxable year ended December 31, 2023. Because PFIC status is based on our income, assets and activities for the entire taxable year, it is not possible to determine whether we will be characterized as a PFIC for our 2024 taxable year until after the close of the year. Furthermore, because the value of our gross assets is likely to be determined in part by reference to our market capitalization, a decline in the value of our ordinary shares may result in our becoming a PFIC. There can be no assurance that we will not be considered a PFIC for any taxable year. If we are characterized as a PFIC, our U.S. shareholders may suffer adverse tax consequences, including having gains realized on the sale of our ordinary shares treated as ordinary income, rather than as capital gain, the loss of the preferential rate applicable to dividends received on our ordinary shares by individuals who are U.S. Holders (as defined in “ITEM 10.E Taxation and Government Programs-U.S. Federal Income Taxation”), and having interest charges apply to distributions by us and the proceeds of sales of our ordinary shares. Certain elections exist that may alleviate some of the adverse consequences of PFIC status and would result in an alternative treatment (such as mark-to-market treatment) of our ordinary shares. For a more detailed discussion, see “ITEM 10.E Taxation and Government Programs - U.S. Federal Income Taxation - Passive Foreign Investment Company Considerations.” Certain U.S. holders of our ordinary shares may suffer adverse tax consequences if we or any of our non-U.S. subsidiaries are characterized as a “controlled foreign corporation”, or a CFC, under Section 957(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code. A non-U.S. corporation is considered a CFC if more than 50 percent of (1) the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of such corporation entitled to vote, or (2) the total value of the stock of such corporation; is owned, or is considered as owned by applying certain constructive ownership rules, by United States shareholders who own stock representing 10% or more of the vote or 10% or more of the value on any day during the taxable year of such non-U.S. corporation (“10% U.S. Shareholders”). Generally, a 10% U.S. Shareholder of a CFC is required to include currently in gross income such 10% U.S. Shareholder’s share of the CFC’s “Subpart F income”, a portion of the CFC’s earnings to the extent the CFC holds certain U.S. property, and certain other items under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, or the Tax Act. Such 10% U.S. Shareholders are subject to current U.S. federal income tax with respect to such items, even if the CFC has not made an actual distribution to such shareholders. “Subpart F income” includes, among other things, certain passive income (such as income from dividends, interests, royalties, rents and annuities or gain from the sale of property that produces such types of income) and certain sales and services income arising in connection with transactions between the CFC and a person related to the CFC. Certain changes to the CFC constructive ownership rules introduced by the Tax Act may cause one or more of our non-U.S. subsidiaries to be treated as CFCs, may also impact our CFC status and, thus, may affect holders of our common shares that are United States shareholders. For 10% U.S. Shareholders, this may result in adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences, such as current U.S. taxation of Subpart F income and of any such shareholder’s share of our accumulated non-U.S. earnings and profits (regardless of whether we make any distributions), taxation of amounts treated as global intangible low-taxed income under Section 951A of the Code with respect to such shareholder, and being subject to certain reporting requirements with the U.S. Internal Revenue Service. Any 10% U.S. Shareholder should consult its own tax advisors regarding the U.S. tax consequences of acquiring, owning, or disposing our common shares and the impact of the Tax Act, especially the changes to the rules relating to CFCs. 21 If equity research analysts do not publish research or reports about our business or if analysts, including short sellers, issue unfavorable commentary or downgrade our ordinary shares, the price of our ordinary shares could decline. Additionally, we may fail to meet publicly announced financial guidance or other expectations about our business, which would cause our ordinary shares to decline in value. The trading market for our ordinary shares relies in part on the research and reports that equity research analysts publish about us, our business and our markets. The price of our ordinary shares could decline if one or more securities analysts downgrade our ordinary shares or if one or more of those analysts issue other unfavorable commentary or cease publishing reports about us or our business. The market price for our ordinary shares has been in the past, and may be in the future, materially and adversely affected by allegations made in reports issued by short sellers regarding our business model, our management and our financial accounting. If our financial results for a particular period do not meet our guidance or if we reduce our guidance for future periods, the market price of our ordinary shares may decline. Risks Related to Our Operations in Israel Our headquarters, manufacturing and other significant operations are located in Israel and, therefore, our results may be adversely affected by political, economic and military instability in Israel. On October 7, 2023, terrorists from Hamas and other terrorist organizations infiltrated Israel’s southern border from the Gaza Strip and conducted a series of barbaric attacks on civilian and military targets, including widespread killings and kidnappings. They also launched extensive rocket attacks on the Israeli civilian population. Shortly following the attack, Israel declared war against Hamas. The Israel Defense Forces called up reservists for active duty, including approximately 13% of our Israeli workforce. There has also been increased fighting along Israel’s northern border with Lebanon. The south of Lebanon is occupied by Hezbollah, a terrorist organization backed by Iran. In addition, Iran has threatened to attack Israel and has been developing a nuclear program. Our headquarters, research and development and manufacturing facility, and the primary manufacturing facilities of our third-party manufacturers, are located in Israel. In addition, the majority of our key employees, officers and directors are residents of Israel. To date, none of our facilities or infrastructure have been damaged nor have our supply chains been significantly impacted since the war broke out. However, a prolonged war could result in further military reserve duty call-ups as well as irregularities to our supply chain and our ability to ship products from Israel, which could disrupt our operations. Our commercial insurance does not cover losses that may occur as a result of an event associated with the security situation in the Middle East, as well as acts of terror. Although the Israeli government is currently committed to covering the reinstatement value of direct damages that are caused by terrorist attacks or acts of war, we cannot assure you that this government coverage will be maintained, or if maintained, will be sufficient to compensate us fully for damages incurred. Any losses or damages incurred by us could have a material adverse effect on our business. While we have commenced implementation of a business continuity plan which provides for alternative sites outside of Israel, there can be no assurance that such plan will be successful. Any armed conflict involving Israel could adversely affect our operations and results of operations. Several countries, principally in the Middle East, restrict doing business with Israel and Israeli companies. While some of these countries are eliminating these constraints, additional countries may impose restrictions on doing business with Israel and Israeli companies if hostilities in Israel or political instability in the region continues or increases. Although the recent Abraham Accords have enhanced Israel’s relations with certain countries in the Middle East (i.e., the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Morocco and Sudan), an ongoing state of hostility vis-à-vis other countries, varying in degree and intensity, has caused security and economic challenges for Israel. In addition, there have been increased efforts by activists to cause companies and consumers to boycott Israeli goods based on Israeli government policies. Such actions, particularly if they become more widespread, may adversely impact our ability to sell our solutions. The shipping and delivery of our systems and ink and other consumables from our manufacturing facilities and those of our third-party manufacturers in Israel could be delayed or interrupted by political, economic, military, and other events outside of our reasonable control, including labor strikes at ports in Israel or at ports of destination, military attacks on transportation facilities or vessels, and severe weather events. Iran is backing the Houthi militia in Yemen which has been attacking ships in the Red Sea after the October 7 terrorist attacks by Hamas in an effort to deter ships from reaching the southern Israeli port of Eilat. If delivery and installation of our products is delayed or prevented by any such events, our revenues could be materially and adversely impacted. 22 The tax benefits that are available to us under Israeli law require us to meet various conditions and may be terminated or reduced in the future, which could increase our costs and taxes. We are eligible for certain tax benefits provided to “Benefited Enterprises” under the Israeli Law for the Encouragement of Capital Investments, 1959, or the Investments Law, until 2018. Beginning in January 2019, and with respect to our taxable results from 2019 onwards, we and our Israeli subsidiary are furthermore eligible to apply the terms of the Investments Law as they relate to a “Preferred Enterprise,” or PE, and/or a “Preferred Technological Enterprise,” or PTE. In order to remain eligible for the tax benefits for Benefited Enterprises for our Israeli subsidiary’s taxable results until 2018, and for its taxable results from 2019 onwards with respect to a PE or PTE, we must continue to meet certain conditions stipulated in the Investments Law and its regulations, as amended. If these tax benefits are reduced, cancelled, or discontinued, our Israeli taxable income would be subject to regular Israeli corporate tax rates and we may be required to refund any tax benefits that we have already received, plus interest and penalties thereon. The statutory corporate tax rate for Israeli companies is 23% from January 1, 2018, and onward. Additionally, if we increase our activities outside of Israel through acquisitions or otherwise through our Israeli subsidiary, our existing or expanded activities might not be eligible for inclusion in existing or future Israeli tax benefit programs. The Israeli government may furthermore independently determine to reduce, phase out, or eliminate entirely the benefit programs under the Investments Law, regardless of whether we then qualify for benefits under those programs at the time, which would also adversely affect our global tax rate and our results of operations. See “ITEM 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects- Taxation and Israeli Government Programs Applicable to our Company - Law for the Encouragement of Capital Investments, 5719-1959.” We have received and may receive further Israeli government grants for certain research and development activities. The terms of those grants restrict our ability to transfer manufacturing operations or technology outside of Israel. Our research and development efforts have been financed in part through grants from the Israeli National Authority for Technological Innovation, or the Innovation Authority (previously known as the Israeli Office of the Chief Scientist). Prior to 2015, we received various grants from the Innovation Authority, all of which we repaid. In 2021, 2022 and 2023, we received new commitments from the Innovation Authority for non-royalty bearing grants to reimburse us for up to 55% of our research and development expenses in connection with our projects, in amounts of NIS 2.02 million, NIS 3.2 million, and NIS 2.4 million, respectively (approximately $0.7 million, $0.9 million, and $0.7 million), in the aggregate. To date, we have received from the Innovation Authority NIS 6.2 million (approximately $1.8 million) of this new committed amount. We must comply with the requirements of the Encouragement of Research, Development and Technological Innovation in the Industry Law, 5744-1984 (formerly known as the Law for the Encouragement of Research and Development in Industry 5744-1984), and related regulations, collectively referred to as the Innovation Law, in connection with that new funding and any past funding that we had received from the Innovation Authority. When a company develops know-how, technology or products and related services using grants provided by the Innovation Authority, the terms of those grants and the Innovation Law, among others, restrict the transfer outside of Israel of (i) such Innovation Authority-supported know-how (including by a way of license for research and development purposes), (ii) manufacturing or manufacturing rights of such products, and (iii) such technologies, without the prior approval of the Innovation Authority. We may not receive those approvals. The restrictions set forth under the Innovation Law, to which we are subject (even after repaying grants we have received) include: ● Transfer of know-how outside of Israel. Transfer of the know-how that was developed with the funding of the Innovation Authority outside of Israel requires prior approval of the Innovation Authority, and, if approved, will require the payment of a redemption fee, which cannot exceed 600% of the grant amount plus interest. Upon payment of such fee, the know-how and the production rights for the products supported by such funding cease to be subject to the Innovation Law. ● Local manufacturing obligation. The terms of the grants under the Innovation Law require that the manufacturing of products resulting from the Innovation Authority funded programs are carried out in Israel, unless a prior written approval of the Innovation Authority is obtained. Such approval may be given in special circumstances and upon the fulfillment of certain conditions set forth in the Innovation Law, including payment of increased royalties. Such approval is not required for the transfer of less than 10% of the manufacturing capacity in the aggregate, and in such an event, a notice to the Innovation Authority is required. ● Certain reporting obligations. A recipient of a grant or a benefit under the Innovation Law is required to notify the Innovation Authority of events enumerated in the Innovation Law. 23 These restrictions and requirements for payment may impair our ability to sell our technology assets outside of Israel or to outsource or transfer manufacturing activities with respect to any product or technology outside of Israel; however, they do not restrict the export of our products that incorporate know-how funded by the Innovation Authority. Furthermore, the consideration available to our shareholders in a sale transaction involving the actual transfer outside of Israel of technology or know-how developed with funding by the Innovation Authority pursuant to a merger or similar transaction may be reduced by any amounts that we are required to pay to the Innovation Authority. Failure to comply with the requirements under the Innovation Law may subject us to mandatory repayment of grants received by us, together with interest and penalties, as well as expose us to criminal proceedings. Provisions of Israeli law and our articles may delay, prevent or otherwise impede a merger with, or an acquisition of, our company, even when the terms of such a transaction are favorable to us and our shareholders. Israeli corporate law regulates mergers, requires tender offers for acquisitions of shares above specified thresholds, requires special approvals for transactions involving directors, officers or significant shareholders and regulates other matters that may be relevant to such types of transactions. For example, a tender offer for all of a company’s issued and outstanding shares can only be completed if the acquirer receives positive responses from the holders of at least 95% of the issued share capital, otherwise, the acquirer may not own more than 90% of a company’s issued and outstanding share capital. Completion of the tender offer also requires approval of a majority in number of the offerees that do not have a personal interest in the tender offer, unless at least 98% of the company’s outstanding shares are tendered. Furthermore, the shareholders, including those who indicated their acceptance of the tender offer (unless the acquirer stipulated in its tender offer that a shareholder that accepts the offer may not seek appraisal rights), may, at any time within six months following the completion of the tender offer, petition an Israeli court to alter the consideration for the acquisition. See “Articles of Association - Acquisitions under Israeli Law” in Exhibit 2.2 to this annual report. Our articles provide that our directors (other than external directors, to the extent there are any serving at the time) are elected on a staggered basis, such that a potential acquirer cannot readily replace our entire board of directors at a single annual general shareholder meeting. Furthermore, Israeli tax considerations may make potential transactions unappealing to us or to our shareholders whose country of residence does not have a tax treaty with Israel exempting such shareholders from Israeli tax. For example, Israeli tax law does not recognize tax-free share exchanges to the same extent as U.S. tax law. With respect to mergers involving an exchange of shares, Israeli tax law allows for tax deferral in certain circumstances but makes the deferral contingent on the fulfillment of a number of conditions, including, in some cases, a holding period of two years from the date of the transaction during which sales and dispositions of shares of the participating companies are subject to certain restrictions. Moreover, with respect to certain share swap transactions in which the sellers receive shares in the acquiring entity that are publicly traded on a stock exchange, the tax deferral is limited in time, and when such time expires, the tax becomes payable even if no disposition of such shares has occurred. In order to benefit from the tax deferral, a pre-ruling from the Israel Tax Authority, or the ITA, might be required. It may be difficult to enforce a judgment of a U.S. court against us or our officers and directors, to assert U.S. securities laws claims in Israel or to serve process on our officers and directors. We are incorporated in Israel. The majority of our directors and executive officers reside outside of the United States, and most of our assets and most of the assets of these persons are located outside of the United States. Therefore, a judgment obtained against us, or any of these persons, including a judgment based on the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws, may not be collectible in the United States and may not be enforced by an Israeli court. It also may be difficult for you to effect service of process on these persons in the United States or to assert U.S. securities law claims in original actions instituted in Israel. Israeli courts may refuse to hear a claim based on an alleged violation of U.S. securities laws reasoning that Israel is not the most appropriate forum in which to bring such a claim. In addition, even if an Israeli court agrees to hear a claim, it may determine that Israeli law and not U.S. law is applicable to the claim. If U.S. law is found to be applicable, the content of applicable U.S. law must be proven as a fact by expert witnesses, which can be a time consuming and costly process. Certain matters of procedure will also be governed by Israeli law. There is little binding case law in Israel that addresses the matters described above. As a result of the difficulty associated with enforcing a judgment against us in Israel, you may not be able to collect any damages awarded by either a U.S. or foreign court. It may be difficult to enforce a judgment of a U.S. court against us, our officers and directors or the Israeli experts named in this prospectus supplement in Israel or the United States, to assert U.S. securities laws claims in Israel or to serve process on our officers and directors and these experts. 24 Your rights and responsibilities as a shareholder are governed by Israeli law, which differs in some material respects from the rights and responsibilities of shareholders of U.S. companies. The rights and responsibilities of the holders of our ordinary shares are governed by our articles and by Israeli law. These rights and responsibilities differ in some material respects from the rights and responsibilities of shareholders in U.S.-based corporations. In particular, a shareholder of an Israeli company has a duty to act in good faith and in a customary manner in exercising its rights and performing its obligations towards the company and other shareholders, and to refrain from abusing its power in the company, including, among other things, in voting at a general meeting of shareholders on matters such as amendments to a company’s articles of association, increases in a company’s authorized share capital, mergers and acquisitions and related party transactions requiring shareholder approval. In addition, a shareholder who is aware that it possesses the power to determine the outcome of a shareholder vote or to appoint or prevent the appointment of a director or executive officer in the company has a duty of fairness toward the company. There is limited case law available to assist us in understanding the nature of this duty or the implications of these provisions. These provisions may be interpreted to impose additional obligations and liabilities on holders of our ordinary shares that are not typically imposed on shareholders of U.S. corporations. ITEM 4.

B. Business Overview We are a leading global developer and provider of innovative digital solutions for the printed textile industry. We aim to transform the industry by shifting demand generators and fulfillers from outdated and stagnant analog processes to innovative digital processes. Our solutions are designed to enable our customers to remain relevant, reduce waste, and adapt to shifting supply chain dynamics. We focus on the rapidly growing high throughput DTG (direct to garment) and DTF (direct to fabric) segments of the printed textile industry. Our solutions include our proprietary digital printing systems, ink, and other consumables, associated software and value-added services. These solutions allow for printing large scale, short to medium runs, of complex images and designs directly on finished garments and fabrics. Our customers include fulfillers and demand generators, such as brands, licensors, and content creators, primarily within the fashion, apparel and home décor segments of the industry. We have developed and are offering a broad portfolio of differentiated digital printing solutions for the DTG market that provide answers to challenges faced by participants in the global printed textile industry. Our DTG solutions utilize our patented wet-on-wet printing methodology, which eliminates the common practice of separately coating and drying textiles prior to printing. This methodology also enables printing on a wide range of untreated fabrics, including cotton, wool, polyester, blends, lycra, and denim. Our patented NeoPigment ink and other consumables have been specially formulated to be compatible with our systems and overcome the quality-related challenges that pigment-based inks have traditionally faced when used in digital printing. Our software solutions simplify workflows in the printing process, by offering a complete solution from web order intake through graphic job preparation and execution. Building on the expertise and capabilities that we have accumulated in developing and offering differentiated solutions for the industrial DTG market, we also offer an industrial digital printing solution, the Presto, which targets the on-demand DTF market. While the DTG market generally involves printing on finished garments, the DTF market is focused on printing on fabrics that are subsequently converted into finished garments, home or office décor, and other items. The Presto and Presto MAX, like our predecessor DTF product, the Allegro, utilize our proprietary wet-on-wet printing methodology and house an integrated drying and curing system. It offers the sole single-step, eco-friendly, stand-alone industrial DTF digital textile printing solution available on the market, following its predecessor the Allegro. We primarily sell the Presto to innovative web-based businesses operating on-demand models that require a high degree of variety and limited quantity orders, as well as to fabric converters, which source large quantities of fabric and convert the untreated fabrics into finished materials to be sold to garment and home décor manufacturers. We believe that with the Presto Max we are well positioned to take advantage of the growing trend towards customized fashion, home décor and on-demand fabric printing, where there is an increased focus on sustainable production. We began selling the Presto commercially in the second quarter of 2019, four years after having introduced our initial DTF digital textile printing solution, the Kornit Allegro in the second quarter of 2015. 26 Consumers today have grown accustomed to shopping online with a vast selection of products advertising rapid shipping times; however, fulfillers and demand generators have historically relied on antiquated, pollutive, and labor-intensive production methods. With the rise of social media, consumers also increasingly expect that both their online and in-store shopping experiences will reflect the latest apparel trends, which are evolving more rapidly than ever before. To meet these consumer demands, many fulfillers and demand generators have faced rising inventories, higher variable costs, more unsold finished goods, and lower pricing. When compared with analog methods of production, our solutions significantly reduce production lead times and enable our customers to produce smaller quantities of individually printed designs more effectively, sustainably, and cost-efficiently. Our solutions are also differentiated from other digital methods of production because they eliminate the need to pre-treat fabrics prior to printing, thereby offering our customers the ability to digitally print high quality images and designs on a variety of fabrics in a streamlined and environmentally friendly manner. We have an attractive business model, with our growing installed base of systems driving recurring sales of ink and other consumables. Our ink and other consumables are specially formulated to enable our systems to operate at the highest throughput level while adhering to high print quality requirements. We intend to capitalize on the continued growth of the DTG market by expanding our diverse global customer base, focusing particularly on fast- growing web-to-print businesses. We also seek to increase our sales to existing customers, particularly sales of our ink and other consumables. At the same time, we are pursuing new high-volume customers, including new customers in the screen replacement market, which should help drive an increase in the sale of ink and other consumables. We also expect to extend our serviceable addressable market by introducing new features and functionality that enhance the capabilities of our systems and inks and enable our systems to print on new types of media. We plan to accomplish these goals by investing in our direct sales force, developing new applications for our systems, introducing new solutions, and growing our relationships with channel partners. We constantly explore the possibility of adding new business models and concepts designed to grow our business and cater to our customers’ needs. We have recently begun piloting with our Apollo system, a new model, based on a price per impression produced on our system, which includes use of the system, consumables and service. Our go-to-market strategy consists of a hybrid model of indirect and direct sales, with a trend towards adopting a direct sales model in certain key markets. We have historically generated a significant portion of our sales through a global network of independent agents, distributors and value-added resellers that we refer to as our channel partners. Our channel partners, in turn, sell the solutions they purchase from us to customers for whom we provide installation services, or sell and install our solutions on their own. Our channel partners work closely with our sales force and assist us by identifying potential sales targets, closing new business, and maintaining relationships with, and, in certain jurisdictions, providing support directly to our customers. Maintenance and support for our systems is performed either by our own service organization or by service engineers employed by our distributors. This varies among the four regions we serve, depending on the infrastructure we have established in each region. We provide professional services directly to some of our customers in all regions. Our customers can renew maintenance and support contracts for additional periods by purchasing a maintenance and support package that covers remote support, software upgrades and onsite yearly maintenance or they can choose to rely on our support on a non-contractual time and material basis. The General Textile Industry Textile is a flexible material formed using various processes, including weaving, knitting, crocheting, or felting. Textile is conventionally used in a broad range of applications including fashion, apparel, and home decor. According to a report published by Statista in February 2024, the value of the global apparel retail market was approximately $1.39 trillion in 2020 and was forecasted to grow from an estimated $1.57 trillion in 2022 to $1.94 trillion in 2027, reflecting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately 4.5% from 2022 to 2027. Factors including rising income per capita, favorable demographics and shifting consumer trends are expected to drive long-term demand in the apparel market. 27 The global printed textile industry involves printing on fabric rolls, finished garments and unsewn pieces of cut fabric at various stages along the value chain in the production of goods for fashion, apparel, and home decoration. According to The Future of Digital Textile Printing report published by Pira in December 2023, it is estimated that approximately 93% of the global output of printed textile in 2022 was carried out via analog methods of printing. According to the same Pira report, the global value of digital printed textile output was estimated to be approximately $4.7 billion in 2023 and expected to grow to approximately $7.54 billion by 2028, reflecting a CAGR of 9.7% in value, in the five-year period from 2023 to 2028, mainly driven by changes in consumer demand, sustainability and brand needs to mitigate excess inventory. Industry trends E-Commerce The global e-commerce market has undergone significant growth in the past two decades, expanding in the U.S. from only ~2% of total retail sales in 2003 to ~16% in 2023 according to the U.S. census bureau. The shift in retail sales channels has transformed how consumers purchase goods across industries, but many global retail brands have faced pressures as their traditional supply chains were not designed to serve e-commerce markets. Advanced technologies like virtual reality, 3D modeling, and artificial intelligence are being increasingly integrated to enhance online shopping. Concurrently, the creator economy is expanding, with social media and e-commerce platforms enabling creators to monetize their digital content. In 2021, e-commerce apparel sales reached $159 billion, a 16% increase from 2020, highlighting the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on accelerating online shopping trends. Social Media Social media platforms, merging media and network categories, have significantly impacted the retail landscape, influencing communication, consumer trends, and brand perception. As of January 2023, 4.76 billion users (59% of the global population) were active on social media, with over 302 million users in the U.S. alone, according to DataReportal and Statista. This widespread use has enabled small and micro brands, often established by individuals or organizations with social influence, to achieve rapid recognition and growth, challenging traditional players to be more agile and responsive. Additionally, the convergence of gaming and social media, with games like Fortnite, Minecraft, and Roblox, highlights the evolution of online games into robust social media networks and interactive marketplaces, offering an alternative to traditional social media platforms. Sustainability The need to reduce or contain the ecological footprint of the textile and apparel industry is affecting the entire industrial system. The urgency for change has flowed through from political and environmental activists and scientists, into mainstream government regulators, and business leadership across the globe. A sustainable industrial system requires the formulation of new strategies and thinking, integrated into business and operational frameworks around sustainable manufacturing, supply chain design, sustainability performance measurement and ongoing management. While industrial production is considered part of the problem, it is now also considered as part of the solution. From a practical point of view, companies are focusing their sustainability strategies to include technological improvements that enable cleaner production, pollution prevention, and other sustainable manufacturing practices. 28 Overview of Textile Printing Processes The graphic and accompanying description below present various textile printing processes: Screen printing is the most commonly used printing process for textiles. The two primary methods of screen printing are rotary screen printing and automated carousel screen printing. The following chart summarizes the key steps involved in the analog printing process: Rotary Screen Printing Rotary screen printing is commonly used to print on outerwear, underwear, sportswear, upholstery, and linens. It involves multiple, time-consuming process steps. Rolls of fabric pass through rotating cylinders that are engraved with the image or design to be printed. Each cylinder then applies ink of a different color, which forms part of the image or design. This process is generally used to print a pattern on a fabric roll that is then cut and sewn into finished products. Rotary screen engraving is a costly process that takes between four and five hours per cylinder and is frequently done offsite. Preparation of colors typically takes an additional 30 minutes and the setup of the printer itself typically takes nearly 1.5 hours. The process can require up to seven people. The maximum size of an image or design is limited based on the circumference of the cylinders, which is typically no more than 60 centimeters. 29 The following diagram depicts the analog rotary screen printing process: Automated Carousel Screen Printing. Automated carousel screen printing is commonly used to print on finished garments and cut pieces. In automated carousel screen printing, a blade or squeegee squeezes printing paste or ink through mesh stencils onto fabric. The process typically employs a series of printing stations arranged in a carousel. At each station, one color of ink is pressed through specially prepared mesh stencils, or screens, on to the textile surface. Between color stations, there are also flash drying stations and cool-down stations to ensure that deposited ink does not inadvertently mix with the next color to be applied. Preparation of the mesh stencils is a specialized process, and its complexity is a function of the number of discrete color separations and screens that need to be prepared for a given design. The process of color separations, film production, and screen exposure and alignment typically takes approximately 1.5 hours for six colors. Once the screens and color separations are complete, preparation of the carousel typically takes between 40 and 60 minutes. After being manually loaded, the textile moves along the carousel from station to station where each color is applied separately. Unlike rotary screen printing, carousel screen printing does not require fixing the image or design with steam or hot air and, in most cases, does not require washing and drying the textile afterward. Digital Printing Processes Digital textile printing uses specially engineered inkjet heads, rather than screens and cylinders or mesh stencils, to print images and designs directly onto fabrics. As such, the use of digital technology eliminates multiple complicated, costly, and time-consuming steps, such as screen preparation or cylinder engraving, preparation of pastes or inks, and screen or cylinder alignment. Most fabrics need to be pre-treated before printing by submerging them in a solution that is designed specifically for the type of fabric and ink being used. This coating process is essential for achieving the desired chemical reaction between the ink and the fabric. The fabric is dried following pre- treatment. After the ink drops are applied, the printed fabric undergoes a process of fixation that is also specific to the type of fabric and ink being used. Digital textile printing generally uses either dye-based or pigment-based ink. 30 The digital textile printing market principally includes two types of printing processes: Direct-to-Garment (DTG) In DTG printing, an inkjet printer prints directly on the textile. DTG printing allows for printing images and designs onto finished textiles, such as t-shirts that have already been sewn and dyed. The following chart summarizes the key steps involved in the DTG printing process: Direct-to-Fabric (DTF) In DTF printing, rolls of fabric pass in-line through wide-format inkjet printers that are utilized to directly print images and designs onto rolling fabric. The following chart summarizes the key steps involved in the DTF printing process: Recent technological developments in digital printing have supported the adoption of digital printing by the global printed textile industry, including by custom decorators, online businesses, brand owners and contract printers. As a result of consumer and macro trends, which were accelerated due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we believe that these businesses offer a significant and rapidly growing market for digital printing solutions. How Digital Textile Printing Addresses Industry Needs The following characteristics of digital textile printing are driving the shift from analog to digital textile printing: Manufacturing flexibility. Digital textile printing gives manufacturers the ability to print short runs, with personalization capabilities, in a cost- effective manner with a minimum order quantity of one unit. Unlike screen printing, digital printing costs remain the same when printing a single unit or multiple units. This allows printers to execute orders one by one without needing to accumulate large demand for a design before printing. In a post- COVID-19 world, manufacturing flexibility plays an essential role in building brands’ resilience. Companies must rethink their sourcing strategies while implementing cutting-edge supply chain management, and building in greater flexibility, in order to keep products at pace with customer demand. Design flexibility. Digital textile printing enables a larger variety of artwork to be imprinted, without limitations on number of colors per design and high-resolution imaging. Integration with advanced workflow environments. Digital textile printing is better suited for the transition of the production floor environment to full digitization, including connectivity to cloud networking elements and productivity analytics software solutions. 31 Reduced time between design and production. The digital textile printing process allows for samples to be quickly produced, evaluated, and modified, which permits brand owners to increase the frequency and variety of replenishment cycles in response to fashion trends. Decreased risk of excess inventory. The costly and time-consuming upfront setup required in analog production methods is avoided when using digital printing technologies. By enabling the cost-efficient production of a smaller quantity of garments, digital printing mitigates excess inventory risk and improves profitability. Stocking blank garments or fabric and decorating them only when demand is identified significantly reduces the amount of inventory at risk. This reduces working capital requirements, thereby enabling the emergence of numerous online businesses focused on the sale of printed textiles. Reduced labor and physical space requirements. Digital textile printing requires significantly less labor to print an equivalent output due to the significant reduction in process steps. The combination of labor savings and a smaller floor footprint, coupled with lower energy consumption and a lack of environmental impact, enables manufacturers to move production closer to consumers in a cost-effective manner. The textile business is very seasonal and the need to retain employees bears a heavy financial burden. The move to digital printing significantly reduces the need for manpower and allows for a more flexible cost structure. Sustainability. Digital textile printing significantly reduces industrial water consumption and discharge of toxic chemicals by eliminating the need to wash screens for color changes and repeated use. We estimate that this results in reduced environmental impact and in turn enables manufacturers to comply with regulatory and brand guidelines at a location of their choosing, in many cases in populated areas which are not industrial in nature. In addition, digital textile printing opens up opportunities to optimize processes and reduce the carbon footprint and energy expense used to decorate garments and fabrics. Our Products Our DTG solutions utilize our patented wet-on-wet printing methodology that eliminates the common practice of separately coating and drying textiles prior to printing. This methodology also enables printing on a wide range of untreated natural, synthetic, blends and man-made fabrics, including cotton, wool, polyester and lycra, and with throughputs ranging from 40 to approximately 400 garments per hour, depending on system type, garment type and operational capabilities. Our industrial and mass production DTG solutions are suited to the needs of a variety of customers, from smaller industrial operators with limited budgets to mass producers with complex manufacturing requirements. Products in this category are designed to print directly on finished garments such as shirts, sweatshirts, polos, fleeces, and more. Our primary systems within our DTG business include the Atlas, Atlas MAX, Atlas MAX Poly and Apollo. In April 2021, we supplemented our original DTG printing solutions with our Kornit MAX technology, which enables exemplary retail print quality and durability standards, together with enhanced production speed. The breakthrough technological innovation has been achieved thanks to new additional process and consumables capabilities, enabling optimal control over print quality and durability on a significantly larger media variety. Kornit introduced the XDI technology that allows layered 3d printing. This capability is available as part of Kornit’s unique MAX printing engine. Kornit XDi brings a new dimension to digital printing by enabling the printing of multiple layers to create 3D-effects. XDi’s unique premium applications open new markets for our customers and offer creative freedom powered by a simple, single-step, digital and sustainable process.

In addition, this solution improves print quality on polyester cotton blends. 32 Apollo, the newest addition to our Max portfolio, was successfully beta tested during 2023. The Apollo is a digital mass production platform, designed to be capable of printing up to approximately 400 shirts per hour, and handled by a single operator. The Apollo leverages the MAX technology, and the Eco-Rapid ink set and consumables. The printing technology is boosted by automation of loading and unloading, as well as integrated smart curing. Apollo is able to RIP spot colors and specific Pantones. We intend to continue developing and adding additional features to Apollo to further enhance flexibility, quality, and productivity. Kornit’s new energy-efficient Smart Curing solutions include Orion for mid-level production, and Titan for higher-capacity volumes – both optimized for compatibility with Kornit Atlas MAX systems and based on field-proven solutions developed by Tesoma. These highly efficient curing systems sync production and finishing for an end-to-end process that reduces both energy consumption and total cost of ownership (TCO). Smart curing systems allow integration between our different Max platforms to the curing system, increasing print quality, energy efficiency and flexibility. During 2023 we launched our Rapid Size Shifter (RSS) Pallet for our Atlas Max platform. RSS is a single adjustable pallet for multiple applications and product sizes The RSS increases the speed and productivity of on-demand direct-to-garment production with a single pallet platform that addresses a wide range of applications, from T-shirts with or without neck tags and hoodies to children’s apparel. This solution also reduces the downtime associated with pallet changes and streamlined production for accelerated time-to-market.

Our Strategy for Growth Our strategy includes three key pillars which are as follows: Expand in Growth Markets We plan to continue growing our customer base by targeting new customers in markets that are adjacent to those in which we have been operating. These markets include geographies where we have identified multiple leading global fulfillers or demand generators which are producing without cost- efficient and sustainable solutions to meet changing consumer preferences. Our strategy of expanding into key markets also includes reallocating our resources selectively to better penetrate the bulk apparel market for athleisure and home décor in addition to new segments including footwear and technical apparel. Maximize Impressions We are focused on increasing sales to existing customers by introducing new digital printing applications, developing new features and functionality of our systems, offering new system upgrade products to make it easier for customers to renew their fleets and update their installed base to the latest technology available, increasing sales of software, offering customers empowerment program inclusive of basic and advanced training, with a goal of enabling our customers to increase utilization of their systems. With our move into solution selling, we are focusing on providing our customers with value added services including training programs, proactive services, production consulting and end-to-end workflow improvements. Through these value-added services, we can increase system availability and utilization, end-user product quality, and increase impressions, thereby requiring more ink and other consumables purchases as well as potential investment in new systems as our customers require additional capacity. 34 Extend our leadership position through acquisitions and strategic partnerships We seek to continue to differentiate ourselves and extend our leadership position. We may supplement our internal efforts with selective inorganic initiatives such as acquisitions and strategic partnerships to enhance our positioning. For example, our acquisition of Polymeric Imaging in 2015 expanded our ink technology capabilities, our acquisitions of the digital DTG printing assets of SPSI in 2016 enabled us to strengthen our direct sales channel and gain access to a large screen-printing customer base, the acquisition of business assets from Hirsch in 2019 helped us transition to a full direct sales model in North America, and our acquisition of Tesoma in 2022 allowed us the ability to integrate the curing step of DTG printing process directly into our solutions via the Apollo. Our Customers Our diverse global customer base consisted of approximately 1,100 active customers as of December 31, 2023. Our growing installed base serves a variety of customers, through different business models, in particular, those that have developed to respond to quickly changing consumer trends and to the growing online retail market. Our solutions enable this category of “on-demand” businesses to fulfill consumer orders more quickly and cost-effectively in a manner that is differentiated from traditional brick and mortar businesses. A number of large-scale, on-demand platforms have emerged, with these often-leveraging digital printing solutions to facilitate business for other content providers. Self-Fulfillment. Companies that produce printed textiles and sell their own designs. Hybrid Printers. Companies that produce printed textiles both in-house and outsource to third party fulfillment providers. Third Party Fulfillment Centers. Companies serving as third party fulfillment for printed textile retailers. Government Regulation We are subject to various local, state, federal and international laws, regulations, and agencies that affect businesses generally, and our business in particular. These include: o o o o o Israeli environmental, health and safety regulations, including conditions set by the Israeli Ministry of Environmental Protection for the operation of our manufacturing and development facilities which use chemicals and produce waste materials, as further detailed below; the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act; Anti-Money Laundering Act of 2020 laws pertaining to the hiring, treatment, safety and discharge of employees; import/ export control regulations related to chemicals and hazardous substances, as described below; Israeli tax regulations, as described under “ITEM 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects- Taxation and Israeli Government Programs Applicable to Our Company” below; and o CE regulations for the European market. Israeli Environmental, Health and Safety Regulations. Our manufacturing and development facilities use chemicals and produce waste materials, which require us to hold business licenses that may include conditions set by the Israeli Ministry of Environmental Protection for the operations of such facilities. We are also subject to extensive environmental, health and safety laws and regulations governing, among other things, the use, storage, registration, handling and disposal of chemicals and waste materials, the presence of specified substances in electrical products, air, water and ground contamination, air emissions and the clean-up of contaminated sites. In the future we may incur expenditures of significant amounts in the event of non- compliance and/or remediation, whether fines or other civil, administrative or criminal sanctions, including the revocation of our toxin permit, business permits, or other permits and licenses necessary to continue our business activities. In addition, we may be required to pay damages or civil judgments in respect of third-party claims, including those relating to personal injury, including exposure to hazardous substances that we use, store, handle, transport, manufacture or dispose of, or property damage. Some environmental, health and safety laws and regulations allow for strict, joint and several liability for remediation costs, regardless of comparative fault. We may be identified as a potentially responsible party under such laws. In addition, our customers may need to obtain regulatory permits to operate our systems in their facilities. 35 Import/Export Control Regulation of Chemicals and Hazardous Substances. The export of our products internationally subjects us to environmental laws and regulations concerning the import and export of chemicals and hazardous substances. In the European marketplace, electrical and electronic equipment is required to comply with the Directive on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment, or WEEE, which aims to prevent waste by encouraging reuse and recycling, and the Directive on Restriction of Use of Certain Hazardous Substances, or RoHS, which restricts the use of ten hazardous substances in electrical and electronic products. Additionally, we are required to comply with certain laws, regulations and directives such as the United States Toxic Substances Control Act, or TSCA, and the Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemical Substances, or REACH. These laws and regulations may require the testing and registration of some chemicals that we ship along with, or that form a part of, our systems and other products. If we fail to comply with these or similar laws and regulations, we may be required to make significant expenditures to reformulate the chemicals that we use in our products and materials or incur costs to register such chemicals to gain and/or regain compliance. Additionally, we could be subject to significant fines or other civil and criminal penalties should we not achieve such compliance. C.

Property, Plant and Equipment Our corporate headquarters are located in Rosh Ha’Ayin, Israel in an office and research and development facility consisting of approximately 172,492 square feet. The lease for this office expires in December 2025, with an option to extend the lease for an additional five years. We lease an additional facility of approximately 9,687 square feet near our corporate headquarters. The lease for this additional space expires on March 31, 2024. We have recently executed a comprehensive amendment to the lease of our facilities in Rosh Ha’Ayin aimed to reduce costs, pursuant to which the space leased by us will be reduced to 136,516 square feet on April 30, 2024, and subsequently to 125,655 square feet on June 30, 2024. In addition, the term for the remaining space under the lease would be amended to expire in December 2028, with an option for us to extend the lease for an additional two-year period. In January 2022, we announced the official opening of a new, modern, ink manufacturing facility in Kiryat Gat. We own the property and the building at this facility (subject to a 49-year lease agreement with the ILA, which will renew for an additional 49 years). Our capital expenditures for 2021, 2022 and 2023 included approximately $2.5 million paid for the land for our new 6,700 square meter ink manufacturing and storage facility in Kiryat Gat, Israel. The total cost for land, construction of the facility, design, and installation of the production line, was approximately NIS 69 million (approximately $22 million). We used cash on hand to finance the construction of that facility. Our U.S. headquarters are located in Englewood, New Jersey. We have entered into a lease for these headquarters, which includes approximately 15,845 square feet of offices and warehouse. The lease for this location expires in February 2028. We maintain additional sales, support and marketing offices in Dusseldorf, Hong Kong, United Kingdom, Massachusetts, Slovakia, and Japan. We also maintain a disaster recovery site in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, where we manufacture the fixation agent for some of our printers. 36 In November 2022, we entered into an agreement for the lease of an additional 18,256 square feet in our office in Dusseldorf, Germany, which we primarily intend to use as an experience center. The lease for this space will expire in 2028, with an option to extend the lease for two additional five-year periods. ITEM 4A. Unresolved Staff Comments. None. ITEM 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects. The information contained in this section should be read in conjunction with our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023 and related notes and the information contained elsewhere in this annual report. Our financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties. As a result of many factors, such as those set forth under “ITEM 3.D. Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements,” our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements. Overview We develop, design and market innovative digital printing solutions for the global printed textile industry. Our vision is to revolutionize this industry by facilitating the transition from analog processes to digital methods of production that address contemporary supply, demand, and environmental dynamics. Our solutions are designed to enable our customers to remain relevant, reduce waste, and adapt to shifting supply chain dynamics. We focus on the rapidly growing high throughput DTG and DTF segments of the printed textile industry. Our solutions include our proprietary digital printing systems, ink, and other consumables, associated software and value-added services that allow for printing large scale short runs of complex images and designs directly on finished garments and fabrics. Our customers include fulfillers and demand generators, such as brands, licensors, and content creators, primarily within the fashion, apparel and home décor segments of the industry. Consumers today have grown accustomed to shopping online with a vast selection of products advertising rapid shipping times; however, fulfillers and demand generators have historically relied on antiquated, pollutive, and labor-intensive production methods. With the rise of social media, consumers also increasingly expect that both their online and in-store shopping experiences will reflect the latest apparel trends, which are evolving more rapidly than ever before. To meet these consumer demands, many fulfillers and demand generators have faced rising inventories, higher variable costs, more unsold finished goods, and lower pricing. When compared with analog methods of production, our solutions significantly reduce production lead times and enable our customers to produce smaller quantities of individually printed designs more effectively, sustainably, and cost-efficiently. Our solutions are also differentiated from other digital methods of production because they eliminate the need to pre-treat fabrics prior to printing, thereby offering our customers the ability to digitally print high quality images and designs on a variety of fabrics in a streamlined and environmentally friendly manner. We have developed and offer a broad portfolio of differentiated digital printing solutions for the DTG market that provide answers to challenges faced by participants in the global printed textile industry. Our DTG solutions utilize our patented wet-on-wet printing methodology, which eliminates the common practice of separately coating and drying textiles prior to printing. This methodology also enables printing on a wide range of untreated fabrics, including cotton, wool, polyester, lycra, and denim. Our patented NeoPigment ink and other consumables, have been specially formulated to be compatible with our systems and overcome the quality-related challenges that pigment-based inks have traditionally faced when used in digital printing. Our software solutions simplify workflows in the printing process, by offering a complete solution from web order intake through graphic job preparation and execution. 37 Building on the expertise and capabilities that we have accumulated in developing and offering differentiated solutions for the industrial DTG market, we also offer an industrial digital printing solution, the Presto, which targets the on-demand DTF market. While the DTG market generally involves printing on finished garments, the DTF market is focused on printing on fabrics that are subsequently converted into finished garments, home or office décor, and other items. The Presto and Presto MAX, like our predecessor DTF product, the Allegro, utilize our proprietary wet-on-wet printing methodology and house an integrated drying and curing system. It offers the sole single-step, eco-friendly, stand-alone industrial DTF digital textile printing solution available on the market, following its predecessor the Allegro. We primarily sell the Presto to innovative web-based businesses operating on-demand models that require a high degree of variety and limited quantity orders, as well as to fabric converters, which source large quantities of fabric and convert the untreated fabrics into finished materials to be sold to garment and home décor manufacturers. We believe that with the Presto we are well positioned to take advantage of the growing trend towards customized fashion, home décor and on-demand fabric printing, where there is an increased focus on sustainable production. We began selling the Presto commercially in the second quarter of 2019, four years after having introduced our initial DTF digital textile printing solution, the Kornit Allegro in the second quarter of 2015. Our go-to-market strategy consists of a hybrid model of indirect and direct sales, with a trend towards adopting a direct sales model in certain key markets. We have historically generated a significant portion of our sales through a global network of independent distributors and value-added resellers that we refer to as our channel partners. Our channel partners, in turn, sell the solutions they purchase from us to customers for whom we provide installation services, or sell and install our solutions on their own. Our channel partners work closely with our sales force and assist us by identifying potential sales targets, closing new business, and maintaining relationships with, and, in certain jurisdictions, providing support directly to our customers. Maintenance and support for our systems is performed either by our own service organization or by service engineers employed by our distributors. This varies among the four regions that we serve, depending on the infrastructure we have established in each region. We provide professional services directly to some of our customers in all regions. Our customers can renew maintenance and support contracts for additional periods by purchasing a maintenance and support package that covers remote support, software upgrades and onsite yearly maintenance or they can choose to rely on our support on a non-contractual time and material basis. We have an attractive business model, with our installed base of systems driving recurring sales of ink and other consumables. Our ink and other consumables are specially formulated to enable our systems to operate at the highest throughput level while adhering to high print quality requirements. We constantly explore the possibility of adding new business models and concepts designed to grow our business and cater to our customers’ needs. We have recently begun piloting with our Apollo system, a new model, based on a price per impression produced on our system, which includes use of the system, consumables and service. We intend to capitalize on the continued growth of the DTG market by expanding our diverse global customer base, focusing particularly on fast- growing web-to-print businesses. We also seek to increase our sales to existing customers, particularly sales of our ink and other consumables. At the same time, we are pursuing new high-volume customers, including new customers in the screen replacement market, which should help drive an increase in the sale of ink and other consumables. We also expect to extend our serviceable addressable market by introducing new features and functionality that enhance the capabilities of our systems and inks, and enable our systems to print on new types of media. We plan to accomplish these goals by investing in our direct sales force, developing new applications for our systems, introducing new solutions, and growing our relationships with channel partners. A. Operating Results The information contained in this section should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2022 and 2023 and related notes and the information contained in “ITEM 18. Financial Statements”. Our financial statements have been prepared in accordance with US GAAP. 38 Components of Statement of Operations Revenues Systems, Ink and Other Consumables, Value Added Services We generate revenues from the sale of our systems, ink and other consumables, and services, including software subscriptions and transaction- based revenues. Our growing installed base generates recurring revenues from ink and other consumables sales. We do not, however, consider period-to- period changes in our total installed base to be a helpful metric in assessing our performance because we sell a number of different systems that have significantly different throughput characteristics and average selling prices. Our installed base does not, therefore, serve to indicate revenues from future systems sales, however, because we have not experienced material changes in the prices at which we sell ink and other consumables, we believe the amount of the increase in revenues from ink and other consumables generated each period from our growing installed base is a key measure of success for our recurring revenues strategy. We generate the services portion of our revenues from the provision of post-warranty service contracts, spare parts to our distributors and customers, system upgrades, time and material-based services, software subscriptions and transaction-based revenues. We have historically sold our products directly and through independent distributors who resell them to customers. Sales by our distributors accounted for approximately 19% and 13% of our revenues during 2022 and 2023, respectively. We recognize revenues in accordance with ASC No. 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”. As such, we recognize revenue under the core principle that transfer of control to our customers should be depicted in an amount reflecting the consideration we expect to receive in revenue. Therefore, we identify a contract with a customer, identify the performance obligations in the contract, determine the transaction price, allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation in the contract and recognize revenues when, or as, we satisfy a performance obligation. We periodically provide customer incentive programs, including product discounts, volume-based rebates, and warrants, which are accounted for as variable consideration that is deducted from revenue in the period in which the revenue is recognized. These reductions to revenue are made based upon reasonable and reliable estimates that are determined by historical experience and the specific terms and conditions of the incentive. Our business is seasonal. Either the third or fourth quarter has historically been our strongest quarter in terms of revenues, and the first quarter has been our weakest. This seasonality coincides with spending in anticipation of the holidays towards the end of the year, especially in the United States and Europe. Since sales of ink and other consumables generate higher gross margins than systems sales, gross margin in the third or fourth quarter tends to be higher than gross margin in the first quarter, when our customers typically reduce their system utilization rates significantly, and therefore purchase less ink and other consumables. See “-Critical Accounting Policies-Revenue Recognition”. Geographic Breakdown of Revenues The following table sets forth the geographic breakdown of revenues from sales to customers located in the regions indicated below for the periods indicated: U.S. EMEA Asia Pacific Other Total revenues 2021 2022 2023 $ % $ % $ % (in thousands except percentages) $ $ 211,294 78,686 23,341 8,685 322,006 65.6% $ 24.4 7.2 2.8 100% $ 39 138,515 93,243 24,396 15,364 271,518 51.0% $ 34.3 9.0 5.7 100% $ 123,550 60,706 22,006 13,524 219,786 56.2% 27.6 10.0 6.2 100% The change in the revenues by geographic region set forth in the above table reflects the general trends for our revenues for 2023 compared to 2022, as described below under “Comparison of the Years Ended December 31, 2023 and 2022—Revenues”. Shipping and handling Shipping and handling fees that are charged to our customers are recognized as revenue in the period shipped and the related costs for providing these services are recorded as a cost of revenues. Cost of Revenues and Gross Profit Cost of revenues consists primarily of payments to the third-party contract manufacturers who assemble our systems and who are responsible for ordering most of the components for those systems. Cost of revenues also includes components for our systems for which we are responsible, such as print heads, as well as raw materials for ink and other consumables. Cost of revenues includes personnel expenses, such as operation and supply chain employees, and related overhead for the manufacturing of our systems, as well as expenses for service personnel involved in the installation and support of our systems, shipping and handling fees, amortization of intangible assets, and overhead for the manufacturing process of ink and other consumables. Gross profit is revenues less cost of revenues. Gross margin is gross profit expressed as a percentage of total revenues. Our gross margin has historically fluctuated from period to period as a result of changes in the mix of the systems that we sell and the amount of revenues that we derive from ink and other consumables versus systems. In general, we generate higher gross margins from our high throughput systems compared with entry level systems. In addition, customers that purchase our high throughput systems generally use larger quantities of ink and other consumables, which generate higher margins than sales of systems. We currently offer maintenance and support for all our systems sold in the United States. We seek to increase the number of customers that rely on us to provide maintenance and support for their systems by expanding our maintenance and support capabilities. In addition to driving gross margin improvement, we believe this provides us with an opportunity to work directly with customers with the goal of reducing system down-time, educating customers on how to optimally use our systems to drive increased utilization and growth in impressions printed, expanding the variety of print applications, as well as increasing sales of post-warranty service contracts and other professional application development services. We are seeking to generate increased revenues from our services offering, including increasing sales of post-warranty service contracts, selling upgrade kits, and providing other professional services, to leverage the fixed cost component associated with our service organization and increase the contribution margin. Operating Expenses Our operating expenses are classified into three categories: research and development expenses, net, sales and marketing expenses, and general and administrative expenses. For each category, the largest component is generally personnel costs, consisting of salaries and related personnel expenses, including share-based compensation expenses. Operating expenses also include allocated overhead costs for facilities, including rent payments under our facility leases. Research and Development Expenses, net. The largest component of our research and development expenses, net of government grants, is salaries and related personnel expenses for our research and development employees. Research and development expenses also include, purchases of laboratory supplies; expenses related to beta testing of our systems; amortization of intangible assets; and allocated overhead costs for facilities, including rent payments under our facilities leases. We record all research and development expenses as they are incurred, except for development expenses, which are capitalized in accordance with ASC 350-40. Our current research and development efforts are primarily focused on our next generation of DTF and DTG systems. We are also investing in the development of new ink formulas for our new systems, in order to expand the range of fabrics on which we can print and improve color quality and diversification of our high-resolution images and designs. We are improving our software solutions to simplify workflows in the printing process, by offering a complete solution from web order intake through graphic job preparation and execution. 40 Sales and Marketing Expenses. The largest component of our sales and marketing expenses is salaries and related personnel expenses for our marketing, sales and other sales-support employees. Sales and marketing expenses also include trade shows, other advertising and promotions, including distributor open houses and media advertising; sales-based commissions, allowance for credit loss and allocated overhead costs for facilities, including rent payments under our facilities leases. We market our solutions using a combination of internal marketing professionals and our network of channel partners. General and Administrative Expenses. The largest component of our general and administrative expenses is salaries and related personnel expenses for our executive officers, financial staff, information technology staff, and human resources staff. General and administrative costs also include fees for accounting and legal services, insurance and costs for facilities, including rent payments under our facilities leases, partially allocated to other departments. Finance Income, Net Finance income, net consists of interest income and foreign currency exchange gains or losses. Foreign currency exchange changes reflect gains or losses related to changes in the value of our non-U.S. dollar denominated financial assets, primarily cash and cash equivalents, and trade payables and receivables. As of December 31, 2023, we did not have any indebtedness for borrowed amounts. Interest income consists of interest earned on our cash, cash equivalents, short-term bank deposits and marketable securities, offset by amortization of premium on marketable securities. We expect interest income to vary depending on our average investment balances and market interest rates during each reporting period. Taxes on Income The corporate tax rate in Israel has been 23% for 2018 and all subsequent years. However, as discussed in greater detail below under “Taxation and Israeli Government Programs Applicable To Our Company - Israeli Tax Considerations and Government Programs,” we and our wholly owned Israeli subsidiary, Kornit Digital Technologies Ltd., which we refer to as Kornit Technologies, are entitled to various tax benefits under the Israeli Law for the Encouragement of Capital Investments, 1959, or the Investment Law. We consolidate the two separate results of our Israeli operations only for tax purposes such that net operating loss carryforwards of Kornit Technologies generated from 2014 onwards can be used to offset our taxable income. Kornit Technologies currently has enough carryforward net operating losses to offset our taxable income. Beginning in January 2019, and with respect to its taxable results from 2019 onwards, our Israeli subsidiary further elected to apply the terms of the Investments Law as per its “Preferred Technological Enterprise,” or PTE, status. In each of 2021, 2022, and 2023, our effective tax rate was the blended rate of our Israeli tax and those of our non-Israeli subsidiaries in their respective jurisdictions of organization. Comparison of Period-to-Period Results of Operations We provide in this section data, as well as discussion and analysis, with respect to our results of operations for the last two years. While our statements of operations in Item 18 of this annual report cover each of the three years ended December 31, 2021, 2022, and 2023, the data, and discussion and analysis, in this Item 5.A do not address the year ended December 31, 2021, or a comparison of our results for that year to our results for the year ended December 31, 2022. In order to view that data, and discussion and analysis, please see “ITEM 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects - A. Operating Results - Comparison of Period-to-Period Results of Operations - Comparison of the Years Ended December 31, 2021 and 2022” in our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2022, which we filed with the SEC on March 30, 2023. 41 Comparison of the Years Ended December 31, 2022 and 2023 The following tables present a comparison of the various components of our results of operations for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023, both in absolute amounts and as a percentage of our revenues in those respective years.

The decline in revenues was primarily driven by a 59% decrease in systems revenues to $49 in 2023 from $119.1 million in 2022, offset in part by (i) a 8% increase in ink and other consumables revenues to $112 million in 2023 from $103.4 million in 2022 and (ii) a 20% increase in service revenues to $58.7 million in 2023 from $49.0 million in 2022. The $70.1 million decrease in systems revenues was attributable to macro-related headwinds and other pressures, which continue to impact customers’ systems purchasing decisions. The $8.6 million increase in ink and other consumables revenues was due to a larger installed base, partially offset by a transition in our installed base to HD technology, which consumes a lower amount of ink and other consumables on a relative basis. The increase in our service revenues was due mainly to sales of spare parts and service contracts on a larger installed base, as well as an increase in system upgrades. Cost of Revenues and Gross Profit Cost of revenues decreased by $22.2 million, or 12.7%, to $152.8 million in 2023 from $175.0 million in 2022. Gross profit decreased by $29.5 million, or 30.6%, to $67 million in 2023 from $96.5 million in 2022. Gross margin decreased to 30.5% in 2023 compared with 35.5% in 2022. The reduced gross profit and gross margin reflect significantly lower year-over-year systems revenues, particularly when compared with our fixed costs and infrastructure, which are designed to be profitable at a materially higher revenue run rate, as well as the higher inventory write-offs in 2023 compared with 2022. Operating Expenses Year Ended December 31, Amount 2022 % of Revenues Amount 2023 % of Revenues Change Amount % ($ in thousands) Operating expenses: Research and development, net Sales and marketing General and administrative Total operating expenses $ $ 56,026 71,067 39,289 166,382 20.6% $ 26.2 14.5 61.3% $ 50,060 66,836 37,592 154,488 22.8% $ 30.4 17.1 70.3% $ (5,966) (4,231) (1,697) (11,894) (10.6)% (6.0) (4.3) (7.1)% Research and Development, net. Research and development, or R&D, expenses, net of government grants, decreased by 10.6% in 2023 compared with 2022. The decrease in net R&D expenses was due primarily to reduction in work force, as well as lower materials used in development processes, compared with 2022. As a percentage of total revenues, our R&D expenses increased to 22.8% in 2023 from 20.6% in 2022. Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expenses decreased by 6.0% in 2023 compared with 2022. This decrease was due primarily to reduction in the average number of employees, as well as lower spending on events and other marketing activities, partly offset by an increase in allowance for credit loss. As a percentage of total revenues, our sales and marketing expenses increased to 30.4% in 2023 from 26.2% in 2022. General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses decreased by 4.3% in 2023 compared with 2022. This was due primarily to the reduction in personnel and a decrease in information technology expenses due to the ERP implementation in 2022. As a percentage of total revenues, our general and administrative expenses increased to 17.1% in 2023 from 14.5% in 2022. Finance Income, Net Finance income, net, totaled $24.2 million in 2023 compared with $13.4 million in 2022. The $10.8 million increase was due primarily to interest income on bank deposits and interest income on marketable securities. 43 Taxes on Income Taxes on income amounted to $1.0 million in 2023, compared with $22.6 million in 2022. The change was due mainly to (i) the payment of approximately $11.5 million to the Israeli Tax Authority for trapped profits from prior years at a steeply discounted rate recorded in 2022, and (ii) the valuation allowance recorded in 2022 against deferred tax assets. In assessing the ability to realize deferred tax assets, we consider whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Based on the available evidence, we believe that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized and, accordingly, a valuation allowance has been provided. For more information, please see Note 14(h) to our consolidated financial statements that appear in Item 18 of this Annual Report. For more information concerning our income tax expenses, please see the risk factor in Item 3.D above that begins “We may be subject to additional tax liabilities in the future as a result of audits of our tax returns.” Taxation and Israeli Government Programs Applicable to Our Company Israeli Tax Considerations and Government Programs The following is a brief summary of the material Israeli tax laws applicable to us, and certain Israeli Government programs that benefit us. General Corporate Tax Structure in Israel Israeli companies are generally subject to corporate tax on their taxable income. Since 2018, the corporate tax rate has been 23%. However, the effective tax rate payable by a company that derives income from an Approved Enterprise, a Benefited Enterprise, a Preferred Enterprise, a Special Preferred Enterprise, a Preferred Technology Enterprise or Special Preferred Technology Enterprise (as discussed below) may be considerably less. Capital gains derived by an Israeli company are generally subject to the prevailing corporate tax rate. Law for the Encouragement of Industry (Taxes), 5729-1969 The Law for the Encouragement of Industry (Taxes), 5729-1969, generally referred to as the Industry Encouragement Law, provides several tax benefits for “Industrial Companies”. The Israeli companies are an “Industrial Company” as defined by the Israeli Law for the Encouragement of Industry (Taxation), 1969. The Industry Encouragement Law defines an “Industrial Company” as a company resident in Israel, which was incorporated in Israel and of which 90% or more of its income in any tax year, other than income from certain government loans, is derived from an “Industrial Enterprise” located in Israel or in the “Area”, in accordance with the definition under section 3A of the Israeli Income Tax Ordinance (New Version) 1961, or the Ordinance, and owned by it. An “Industrial Enterprise” is defined as an enterprise which is held by an Industrial Company whose principal activity in any given tax year is industrial production. The following tax benefits, among others, are available to Industrial Companies: ● amortization of the cost of purchased know-how, patents and rights to use a patent or know-how that were purchased in good faith and are used for the development or promotion of the Industrial Enterprise, over an eight-year period commencing on the year in which such rights were first exercised; ● under limited conditions, an election to file consolidated tax returns with related Israeli Industrial Companies controlled by it; and ● expenses related to a public offering are deductible in equal amounts over three years, commencing in the year of the offering. Eligibility for benefits under the Industry Encouragement Law is not subject to receipt of prior approval from any governmental authority. 44 There can be no assurance that we will continue to qualify as an Industrial Company or that the benefits described above will be available in the future. Law for the Encouragement of Capital Investments, 5719-1959 The Law for the Encouragement of Capital Investments, 5719-1959, generally referred to as the Investment Law, provides certain incentives for capital investments in production facilities (or other eligible assets) by “Industrial Enterprises” (as defined under the Investment Law). The Investment Law has been amended several times over the recent years, with the three most significant changes effective as of April 1, 2005, or the 2005 Amendment, as of January 1, 2011, or the 2011 Amendment and as of January 1, 2017, or the 2017 Amendment. Pursuant to the 2005 Amendment, tax benefits granted in accordance with the provisions of the Investment Law prior to its revision by the 2005 Amendment remain in force but any benefits granted subsequently are subject to the provisions of the 2005 Amendment. Similarly, the 2011 Amendment introduced new benefits to replace those granted in accordance with the provisions of the Investment Law in effect prior to the 2011 Amendment. However, companies entitled to benefits under the Investment Law as in effect prior to January 1, 2011 were entitled to choose to continue to enjoy such benefits, provided that certain conditions are met, or elect instead, irrevocably, to forego such benefits and have the benefits of the 2011 Amendment apply. We have examined the possible effect of these provisions of the 2011 Amendment on our financial statements and have decided not to opt to apply the new benefits under the 2011 Amendment and the 2017 Amendment for our company, and for our Israeli subsidiary we elected to apply the benefit under the 2011 Amendment. The 2017 Amendment introduces new benefits for Technological Enterprises, alongside the existing tax benefits. The following discussion is a summary of the Investment Law following its most recent amendments: Tax Benefits Subsequent to the 2005 Amendment The 2005 Amendment applies to new investment programs and investment programs commencing after 2004, but does not apply to investment programs approved prior to April 1, 2005, referred to as Approved Enterprises. The 2005 Amendment provides that terms and benefits included in any certificate of approval that was granted before the 2005 Amendment became effective (April 1, 2005) will remain subject to the provisions of the Investment Law as in effect on the date of such approval. Pursuant to the 2005 Amendment, the Israeli Authority for Investments and Development of the Industry and Economy, or the Investment Center, will continue to grant Approved Enterprise status to qualifying investments. The 2005 Amendment, however, limits the scope of enterprises that may be approved by the Investment Center by setting criteria for the approval of a facility as an Approved Enterprise. The 2005 Amendment provides that Approved Enterprise status will only be necessary for receiving cash grants. As a result, it was no longer necessary for a company to obtain the advance approval of the Investment Center in order to receive the tax benefits previously available under the alternative benefits track. Instead, a company may claim the tax benefits offered by the Investment Law directly in its tax returns, provided that its facilities meet the criteria for tax benefits set forth in the 2005 Amendment. Companies or programs under the new provisions receiving these tax benefits are referred to as Benefited Enterprises. A company that has a Benefited Enterprise may, at its discretion, approach the Israel Tax Authority for a pre-ruling confirming that it is in compliance with the provisions of the Investment Law, as amended. Tax benefits are available under the 2005 Amendment to production facilities (or other eligible facilities) which are generally required to derive 25% or more of their business income from export to specific markets with a population of at least 14 million in 2012 (such export criteria will further be increased in the future by 1.4% per annum). In order to receive the tax benefits, the 2005 Amendment states that a company must make an investment which meets certain conditions set forth in the amendment for tax benefits, including exceeding a minimum investment amount specified in the Investment Law. Such investment entitles a company to receive a “Benefited Enterprise” status with respect to the investment, and may be made over a period of no more than three years ending in the year in which the company requested to have the tax benefits apply to its Benefited Enterprise. Where a company requests to have the tax benefits apply to an expansion of existing facilities, only the expansion will be considered to be a Benefited Enterprise and the company’s effective tax rate will be the weighted average of the applicable rates. In such case, the minimum investment required in order to qualify as a Benefited Enterprise must exceed a certain percentage of the value of the company’s production assets before the expansion. The extent of the tax benefits available under the 2005 Amendment to qualifying income of a Benefited Enterprise depends on, among other things, the geographic location within Israel of the Benefited Enterprise. The location will also determine the period for which tax benefits are available. Such tax benefits include an exemption from corporate tax on undistributed income for a period of between two to ten years, depending on the geographic location of the Benefited Enterprise within Israel, and a reduced corporate tax rate of between 10% to 25% for the remainder of the benefits period, depending on the level of foreign investment in the company in each year. The benefits period is limited to 12 years from the year the company first chose to have the tax benefits apply. 45 A company qualifying for tax benefits under the 2005 Amendment which pays a dividend out of income derived by its Benefited Enterprise during the tax exemption period will be subject to deferred corporate tax in respect of the gross amount of the dividend distributed (grossed-up to reflect the pre- tax income that it would have had to earn in order to distribute the dividend) at the corporate tax rate which would have otherwise been applicable. Dividends paid to Israeli shareholders out of income attributed to a Benefited Enterprise (or out of dividends received from a company whose income is attributed to a Benefited Enterprise) are generally subject to withholding tax at source at the rate of 15% (in the case of non-Israeli shareholders - subject to the receipt in advance of a valid certificate from the ITA allowing for a reduced tax rate, 15%, or such lower rate as may be provided in an applicable tax treaty). The reduced rate of 15% is limited to dividends and distributions out of income derived during the benefits period and actually paid at any time up to 12 years thereafter. After this period, the withholding tax is applied at a rate of up to 30%, or at a lower rate under an applicable tax treaty (subject to the receipt in advance of a valid certificate from the ITA allowing for a reduced tax rate). In the case of a Foreign Investors’ Company (as such term is defined in the Investment Law), the 12-year limitation on reduced withholding tax on dividends does not apply. During the years 2010 to 2019, we were entitled to a tax exemption for undistributed income (“Trapped Profits”) and a reduced tax rate under the Benefited Enterprise programs under the Investment Law. Our company enjoyed these tax benefits until 2019. On November 15, 2021, a new amendment of the Investment Law was enacted harshening the rules with respect to determining the profits from which a dividend was distributed and providing that part of any dividend distribution will be deemed as distributed from the Trapped Profits, according to a certain formula. The Israeli government agreed to grant a relief of 30%-60% on the amount of tax which should have been paid on distributable earnings in order to encourage companies to pay the reduced taxes during the next 12 months (the “Temporary Order”). In November 2022, we applied the Temporary Order to our exempt profits accrued prior to 2022. Tax Benefits under the 2011 Amendment The 2011 Amendment canceled the availability of the benefits granted to companies in accordance with the provisions of the Investment Law prior to 2011 and, instead, introduced new benefits for income generated by a “Preferred Company” through its “Preferred Enterprise” (as such terms are defined in the Investment Law) as of January 1, 2011. The definition of a Preferred Company includes an industrial company that was incorporated in Israel, which is not wholly owned by a governmental entity, and which has, among other things, Preferred Enterprise status and is controlled and managed from Israel. Pursuant to the 2011 Amendment, a Preferred Company is entitled to a reduced corporate flat tax rate of 15% with respect to its preferred income derived by its Preferred Enterprise in 2011 and 2012, unless the Preferred Enterprise is located in a certain development zone, in which case the rate will be 10%. Such corporate tax rate was reduced to 12.5% and 7%, respectively, in 2013 and increased to 16% and 9%, respectively, in 2014 and through 2016. Pursuant to the 2017 Amendment, in 2017 and thereafter, the corporate tax rate for a Preferred Enterprise which is located in a specified development zone was decreased to 7.5%, while the reduced corporate tax rate for other development zones remains 16%. Income derived by a Preferred Company from a ’Special Preferred Enterprise’ (as such term is defined in the Investment Law) would be entitled, during a benefits period of 10 years, to further reduced tax rates of 8%, or to 5% if the Special Preferred Enterprise is located in a certain development zone. As of January 1, 2017, the definition of “Special Preferred Enterprise” includes less stringent conditions. The tax benefits under the 2011 Amendment also include accelerated depreciation and amortization for tax purposes. Dividends paid to Israeli shareholders out of preferred income attributed to a Preferred Enterprise or to a Special Preferred Enterprise are generally subject to withholding tax at source at the rate of 20% (in the case of non-Israeli shareholders - subject to the receipt in advance of a valid certificate from the ITA allowing for a reduced tax rate, 20% or such lower rate as may be provided in an applicable tax treaty). However, if such dividends are paid to an Israeli company, no tax is required to be withheld (although, if subsequently distributed to individuals or a non-Israeli company, withholding of 20% or such lower rate as may be provided in an applicable tax treaty will apply). 46 The 2011 Amendment also provided transitional provisions to address companies already enjoying existing tax benefits under the Investment Law. These transitional provisions provide, among other things, that unless an irrevocable request is made to apply the provisions of the Investment Law as amended in 2011 with respect to income to be derived as of January 1, 2011: (i) the terms and benefits included in any certificate of approval that was granted to an Approved Enterprise which chose to receive grants and certain tax benefits before the 2011 Amendment became effective will remain subject to the provisions of the Investment Law as in effect on the date of such approval, and subject to certain conditions; (ii) terms and benefits included in any certificate of approval that was granted to an Approved Enterprise which had participated in an alternative benefits track before the 2011 Amendment became effective will remain subject to the provisions of the Investment Law as in effect on the date of such approval, provided that certain conditions are met; and (iii) a Benefited Enterprise can elect to continue to benefit from the benefits provided to it before the 2011 Amendment came into effect, provided that certain conditions are met. Kornit Technologies has filed a notification that it wishes to apply the new benefits under the 2011 Amendment. New Tax benefits under the 2017 Amendment that became effective on January 1, 2017. The 2017 Amendment provides new tax benefits for two types of “Technology Enterprises”, as described below, and is in addition to the other existing tax beneficial programs under the Investment Law. The 2017 Amendment provides that a technology company satisfying certain conditions will qualify as a Preferred Technology Enterprise and will thereby enjoy a reduced corporate tax rate of 12% on income that qualifies as “Preferred Technology Income”, as defined in the Investment Law. The tax rate is further reduced to 7.5% for a Preferred Technology Enterprise located in development zone “A”. These corporate tax rates shall apply only with respect to the portion of the Preferred Technology Income derived from R&D developed in Israel. In addition, a Preferred Technology Company will enjoy a reduced corporate tax rate of 12% on capital gain derived from the sale of certain “Benefitted Intangible Assets” (as defined in the Investment Law) to a related foreign company if the Benefitted Intangible Assets were acquired from a foreign company on or after January 1, 2017 for at least NIS 200 million, and the sale receives prior approval from the National Authority for Technological Innovation (previously known as the Israeli Office of the Chief Scientist), referred to as the Israel Innovation Authority (“IIA”) . The 2017 Amendment further provides that a technology company satisfying certain conditions will qualify as a “Special Preferred Technology Enterprise” and will thereby enjoy a reduced corporate tax rate of 6% on “Preferred Technology Income” regardless of the company’s geographic location within Israel. In addition, a Special Preferred Technology Enterprise will enjoy a reduced corporate tax rate of 6% on capital gain derived from the sale of certain “Benefitted Intangible Assets” to a related foreign company if the Benefitted Intangible Assets were either developed by the Special Preferred Technology Enterprise or acquired from a foreign company on or after January 1, 2017, and the sale received prior approval from the IIA. A Special Preferred Technology Enterprise that acquires Benefitted Intangible Assets from a foreign company for more than NIS 500 million will be eligible for these benefits for at least ten years, subject to certain approvals as specified in the Investment Law. Dividends distributed to Israeli shareholders by a Preferred Technology Enterprise or a Special Preferred Technology Enterprise, paid out of Preferred Technology Income, are generally subject to withholding tax at source at the rate of 20% (in the case of non-Israeli shareholders - subject to the receipt in advance of a valid certificate from the ITA allowing for a reduced tax rate, 20%, or such lower rate as may be provided in an applicable tax treaty). However, if such dividends are paid to an Israeli company, no tax is required to be withheld (although, if such dividends are subsequently distributed from such Israeli company to individuals or a non-Israeli company, withholding tax at a rate of 20% or such lower rate as may be provided in an applicable tax treaty will apply). If such dividends are distributed to a foreign parent company holding, solely or together with another foreign company, at least 90% of the shares of the distributing company and other conditions are met, the withholding tax rate will be 4% (or a lower rate under a tax treaty, if applicable, subject to the receipt in advance of a valid certificate from the ITA allowing for a reduced tax rate). We believe that we and our Israeli subsidiary meet the conditions for “Preferred Technological Enterprises”, and accordingly are eligible for the tax rate of 12% on income that qualifies as “Preferred Technology Income”, as defined in the Law. The tax rate for Preferred Technological Enterprises located in development zone A is 7.5%. From time to time, the Israeli Government has discussed reducing the benefits available to companies under the Investment Law. The termination or substantial reduction of any of the benefits available under the Investment Law could materially increase our tax liabilities. 47 B. Liquidity and Capital Resources As of December 31, 2023, we had $39.6 million in cash and cash equivalents, $235.6 million in short term deposits and $280.5 million in marketable securities, which, in the aggregate, total $555.7 million. Our cash requirements have principally been for working capital, capital expenditures and acquisitions, and in 2023, our cash was used also for repurchasing of our shares. Historically, we have funded our working capital requirements, primarily for inventory and accounts receivable, and capital expenditures from cash flows provided by our operating activities, investments in our equity securities and cash and cash equivalents on hand. We have funded our acquisitions from the proceeds of our April 2015 initial public offering and cash on hand. In 2022, our capital expenditures primarily related to Tesoma acquisition and leasehold improvements, whereas in 2021, our capital expenditures primarily related to the completion of construction of our manufacturing facility for our ink and other consumables in Kiryat Gat, Israel. In addition to investments in this facility, our capital investments have included improvements and expansion of our worldwide locations and corporate facilities to support our growth and investment and improvements in our information technology. In 2021 and 2022, we acquired Voxel8 and Tesoma for cash consideration of $15.0 million and 15.4 million Euros, respectively. We will continue to actively seek strategic acquisitions that may require investments of cash. We believe that our current cash reserves will suffice for any such acquisitions, although there can be no assurance that we will not need to seek additional equity or debt financing in order to cover the cost of such potential acquisitions. The most significant elements of our working capital requirements are for inventory, accounts receivable and trade payables. We partially fund the procurement of the components of our systems that are assembled by our third-party manufacturers. Our inventory strategy includes maintaining inventory of systems and inks and other consumables at levels that we expect to sell during the successive three-month period based on anticipated customer demand. Our accounts receivable increased in 2023 primarily due to selectively extending payment terms to qualified customers. Our trade payables decreased in 2023 mainly due to lower materials purchases associated with reduced systems sales throughout the year. Based on our current business plans, we believe that our cash flows from operating activities and our existing cash resources will be sufficient to fund our projected cash requirements for at least the next 12 months without drawing on our lines of credit or using significant amounts of the net proceeds from our initial public offering or our follow-on offerings. Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including our rate of revenue growth, the timing and extent of spending to support product development efforts, the expansion of our sales and marketing activities, the timing of introductions of new solutions and the continuing market acceptance of our solutions, as well as other business development efforts. We provide below a summary of our consolidated statement of cash flows for the last two years. While our statements of cash flows in Item 18 of this annual report include cash flow data for each of the three years ended December 31, 2021, 2022, and 2023, the data and discussion contained in this Item 5.B is limited to a comparison of our liquidity and capital resources- including cash flows- for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023. For a discussion of our cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2021, and a comparison of those cash flows with those for the year ended December 31, 2022, please see “Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects-B. Liquidity and Capital Resources” in our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2022, which we filed with the SEC on March 30, 2023. The following table presents the major components of net cash flows for our last two fiscal years: Net cash used in operating activities Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities Net cash used in financing activities 48 Year Ended December 31, 2022 2023 $ (in thousands) (99,347) $ (407,275) (332) (34,682) 26,212 (56,522) Net Cash Provided by (Used in) Operating Activities Year Ended December 31, 2023 Net cash used in operating activities in the year ended December 31, 2023 was $34.7 million. Net cash used in operating activities in 2023 reflects a net loss of $64.4 million and the elimination of non-cash expense line items, such as share- based compensation expenses of $22.6 million, restructuring expenses of $19.1 million, depreciation and amortization of $14.7 million and the fair value of warrants deducted from revenues of $13.8 million. These adjustments were offset by the elimination of certain non-cash changes to our operating assets and liabilities, which, when eliminated, had a net impact of increasing the cash used in our operating activities, including an increase of accounts receivables of $19.2 million, a decrease in accrued expenses and other liabilities of $10.5 million and a decrease in trade payables of $6.5 million, partially offset by an increase in inventory of $11.0 million. The increase in accounts receivables reflects a higher portion of receivables with extended payment terms, with DSO increasing to 155 days for the year ended December 31, 2023, compared with 91 days for the year ended December 31, 2022. The decrease in accrued expenses and other liabilities, as well as in trade payables, and the increase in inventory, were due primarily to lower business activities, including reduced systems sales throughout the year. Year Ended December 31, 2022 Net cash used in operating activities in the year ended December 31, 2022 was $99.3 million. Net cash used in operating activities in 2022 reflects a net loss of $79.1 million and the elimination of non-cash expense line items, such as share based compensation expenses of $22.6 million, the fair value of warrants deducted from revenues of $22.5 million, and depreciation and amortization of $13.6 million. These adjustments were offset, in part, by the elimination of certain non-cash changes to our operating assets and liabilities, which, when eliminated, had a net impact of increasing the cash used in our operating activities, including an increase of accounts receivables of $15.9 million, an increase of inventory of $29.0 million and a decrease in trade payables of $26.9 million. The increase in accounts receivables reflects a higher portion of receivables with extended payment terms, with DSO increasing to 91 days for the year ended December 31, 2022, compared with 56 days for the year ended December 31, 2021. The increase in inventory was due primarily to higher levels of systems inventory, print heads and the Tesoma acquisition. The decrease in trade payables was due to lower materials purchases associated with reduced systems sales throughout the year, as well as payments made in advance of cutting over to a new ERP system, which we successfully transitioned to in January 2023. Net Cash Provided by (Used in) Investing Activities Year Ended December 31, 2023 Net cash provided by investing activities in the year ended December 31, 2023, was $26.2 million. Net cash provided by investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2023, was primarily attributable to proceeds from short-term bank deposits and marketable securities of $67.2 million, offset, by purchase of property, plant and equipment of $7.0 million and $34.0 million investments in marketable securities. Year Ended December 31, 2022 Net cash used in investing activities was $407.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, which was primarily attributable to investments in marketable securities and bank deposits of $403.4 million, purchase of property, plant and equipment of $18.0 million, and $14.7 million of cash paid in connection with acquisitions, offset, in part, by $29.8 million of proceeds from the sale and maturity of marketable securities. 49 Net Cash Provided by (Used in) Financing Activities Year Ended December 31, 2023 Net cash used in financing activities was $56.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, which was primarily attributable to the repurchase of ordinary shares of $55.8 million and payments related to shares withheld for taxes of $1 million. Year Ended December 31, 2022 Net cash used in financing activities was $0.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, which was primarily attributable to payments related to shares withheld for taxes, offset, in part, by proceeds from exercise of employee stock options. C. Research and development, patents and licenses, etc. For a description of our research and development programs and the amounts that we have incurred over the last three years pursuant to those programs, please see “ITEM 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects- A. Operating Results- Components of Statement of Operations- Operating Expenses- Research and Development Expenses, net” and “ITEM 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects- A. Operating Results- Comparison of Period to Period Results of Operations- Comparison of the Years Ended December 31, 2022 and 2023— Operating Expenses-— Research and Development, net” and the corresponding portions of our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2022, which we filed with the SEC on March 30, 2023. D. Trend Information Our results of operations and financial condition may be affected by various trends and factors discussed in “ITEM 3.D Risk Factors,” including “If the market for digital textile printing does not develop as we anticipate, our sales may not grow as quickly as expected and our share price could decline”, and “Macro-economic headwinds caused by inflation, rising interest rates and global supply problems have been adversely impacting our revenues, profitability and cash flows, and may continue to do so”, and in “ITEM 4.B Business Overview-Industry Overview.” Additional trends that could potentially impact our results of operations and financial condition include changes in political, military or economic conditions in Israel and in the Middle East, and any potential cyber attack on our IT systems, which we believe could have a material effect on our results of operations, liquidity, or financial condition or could cause our reported financial information not to be necessarily indicative of future operating results or financial condition. E. Critical Accounting Estimates Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (U.S. GAAP). These accounting principles are more fully described in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this annual report and require us to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions. We believe that the estimates, judgments and assumptions upon which we rely are reasonable based upon information available to us at the time that these estimates, judgments and assumptions are made. These estimates, judgments and assumptions can affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented. To the extent there are material differences between these estimates, judgments or assumptions and actual results, our financial statements will be affected. We believe that the accounting policies discussed below are critical to our financial results and to the understanding of our past and future performance, as these policies relate to the more significant areas involving management’s estimates and assumptions. We consider an accounting estimate to be critical if: (1) it requires us to make assumptions because information was not available at the time, or it included matters that were highly uncertain at the time we were making our estimate; and (2) changes in the estimate could have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations. We believe that the following significant accounting policies are the basis for the most significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. 50 Revenue Recognition We generate revenues from sales of systems, consumables and services. We generate revenues from sale of our products directly to end-users and indirectly through independent distributors, all of whom are considered end-users. We recognize revenue under the core principle that transfer of control to our customers should be depicted in an amount reflecting the consideration we expect to receive in revenue. Therefore, we identify a contract with a customer, identify the performance obligations in the contract, determine the transaction price, allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation in the contract, and recognize revenues when, or as, we satisfy a performance obligation. Revenues from products, which consist of systems and consumables, are recognized at the point in time when control has transferred, in accordance with the agreed-upon delivery terms. Revenues from services are derived mainly from the sale of print heads, spare parts, upgrade kits, software subscription and service contracts. Our print heads, spare parts and upgrade kits revenues (collectively “Spare parts”) are recognized at the point in time when control has transferred, in accordance with the agreed-upon delivery terms. Service contracts and software subscriptions are recognized over time, on a straight-line basis, over the period of the service. For multiple performance obligations arrangements, such as selling a system with a service contract, installation and training, we account for each performance obligation separately, as it is distinct. The transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation on a relative stand-alone selling price, or SSP, basis, and revenue is recognized for each performance obligation when control has passed, or service has been rendered. In most cases, we are able to establish SSP based on the observable prices of services sold separately in comparable circumstances to similar customers and for products based on our best estimates of the price at which we would have sold the product regularly on a stand-alone basis. We reassess the SSP on a periodic basis or when facts and circumstances change. We do not account for training and installation as a separate performance obligation due to its immateriality in the context of our contracts. Accordingly, revenues from training and installation are recognized upon the delivery of our systems. We periodically provide customer incentive programs in the form of product discounts, volume-based rebates and warrants, which are accounted for as variable consideration that are deducted from revenue in the period in which the revenue is recognized. These reductions to revenue are made based upon reasonable and reliable estimates that are determined according to historical experience and the specific terms and conditions of the incentive. In cases in which old systems are traded in as part of sales of new systems, the fair value of the old systems is recorded as inventory, provided that such value can be recoverable. Inventories Inventories are measured at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is first-in, first-out cost basis. Inventory costs consist of material, direct labor and overhead. We periodically assess inventory for obsolescence and excess and reduce the carrying value by an amount equal to the difference between its cost and the estimated net realizable value based on assumptions about future demand and historical sales patterns. This valuation requires us to make judgments, based on currently available information, about the likely method of disposition, such as through sales and expected recoverable values of each disposition category. These assumptions about future disposition of inventory are inherently uncertain and changes in our estimates and assumptions may cause us to realize material write-downs in the future. As of December 31, 2023, we had $67.7 million of inventory, of which $28.3 million consisted of raw materials and components and $39.4 million consisted of completed systems, ink and other consumables. We recorded inventory write-offs in total amounts of $4.9 million, $11.4 million, and $22.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2022, and 2023, respectively. Share-Based Compensation Under U.S. GAAP, we account for share-based compensation for employees in accordance with the provisions of the FASB’s ASC Topic 718 “Compensation - Stock Based Compensation,” or ASC 718, which requires us to measure the cost of options and RSUs based on the fair value of the award on the grant date. 51 The fair value of each RSU is the market value as determined by the closing share price at the date of the grant. We selected the binomial option pricing model as the most appropriate method for determining the estimated fair value of options which requires the use of subjective assumptions, including the expected term of the award and the expected volatility of the price of our common stock. We recognize compensation expense over the vesting period using the straight-line method and classify these amounts in the consolidated financial statements based on the department to which the related employee reports. We will continue to use judgment in evaluating the assumptions related to our share-based compensation expense on a prospective basis. As we continue to accumulate additional data, we may have refinements to our estimates, which could materially impact our future share-based compensation expense. Taxes We are subject to income taxes in Israel, United States, Germany, Japan, United Kingdom and Hong Kong. Significant judgment is required in evaluating our uncertain tax positions and determining our provision for income taxes. We recognize income taxes under the liability method. Tax benefits are recognized from uncertain tax positions only if we believe that it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities based on the technical merits of the position. Although we believe we have adequately reserved for our uncertain tax positions, no assurance can be given that the final tax outcome of these matters will not be different. We adjust these reserves when facts and circumstances change, such as the closing of a tax audit, the refinement of an estimate or changes in tax laws. To the extent that the final tax outcome of these matters is different than the amounts recorded, such differences will impact the provision for income taxes in the period in which such determination is made. The provision for income taxes includes the effects of any reserves that are considered appropriate, as well as the related net interest and penalties. We recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities for future tax consequences arising from differences between the carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities under U.S. GAAP and their respective tax bases, and for net operating loss carryforwards and tax credit carryforwards. We regularly review our deferred tax assets for recoverability and establish a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. To make this judgment, we must make predictions of the amount and category of taxable income from various sources and weigh all available positive and negative evidence about these possible sources of taxable income. While we believe the resulting tax balances as of December 31, 2021, 2022 and 2023 are appropriately accounted for, the ultimate outcome of such matters could result in favorable or unfavorable adjustments to our consolidated financial statements and such adjustments could be material. We have filed or are in the process of filing local and foreign tax returns that may be audited by the respective tax authorities. Our future results may include favorable or unfavorable adjustments to our estimated tax liabilities in the period the assessments are made or resolved, audits are closed or when statute of limitations on potential assessments expire. Warranty costs We typically granted a six-month warranty on our systems and recorded a provision for warranty at the time at which a product’s revenue was recognized. We estimate the liability of possible warranty claims based on our historical experience. We estimate the costs that may be incurred under our warranty arrangements and record a liability in the amount of such costs at the time product revenue is recognized. We periodically assess the adequacy of the recorded warranty liabilities and adjust the amounts as necessary. Marketable Securities Marketable securities currently are comprised of debt securities. We determine the appropriate classification of marketable securities at the time of purchase and re-evaluate such designation at each balance sheet date. In accordance with FASB ASC No. 320, “Investment Debt Securities,” we classify marketable securities as available-for-sale. Available-for-sale securities are stated at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), a separate component of shareholders’ equity, net of taxes. Realized gains and losses on sales of marketable securities, as determined on a specific identification basis, are included in finance income, net. The amortized cost of marketable securities is adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount to maturity, both of which, together with interest, are included in finance income, net. We classify our marketable securities as either short-term or long-term based on each instrument’s underlying contractual maturity date and our expectations as to sales and redemptions in the following year. 52 During the year ended December 31, 2022, no impairment was recorded related to our marketable securities, During the year ended December 31, 2023 we recorded impairment related to our marketable securities of approximately $93,000 which were recognized in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Business Combination We allocate the fair value of purchase consideration to the tangible assets acquired, liabilities assumed and intangible assets acquired based on their estimated fair value. The excess of the fair value of purchase consideration over the fair values of these identifiable assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill. Such valuations require our management to make significant estimates and assumptions, especially with respect to intangible assets. Significant estimates in valuing certain intangible assets include, but are not limited to, future expected cash flows from acquired technology and other intangible assets, their useful lives and discount rates. Our management’s estimates of fair value are based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable, but which are inherently uncertain and unpredictable and, as a result, actual results may differ from estimates. During the measurement period, which is not to exceed one year from the acquisition date, we may record adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, with the corresponding offset to goodwill. Upon the conclusion of the measurement period, any subsequent adjustments are recorded to earnings.

Financial Statements” of this annual report. 59 2012 Share Incentive Plan In October 2012, our board of directors adopted and our shareholders approved our 2012 Share Incentive Plan, or the 2012 Plan. The 2012 Plan replaced our 2004 Plan. We no longer grant equity awards under the 2012 Plan because it was superseded by the 2015 Plan and expired (for purposes of granting new awards) in October 2022, although awards that were previously granted under the 2012 Plan remain outstanding. The 2012 Plan provided for the grant of options, restricted shares, restricted share units and other share-based awards to our and our subsidiaries’ and affiliates’ directors, employees, officers, consultants, advisors, and any other person whose services are considered valuable to us or our affiliates, to continue as service providers, to increase their efforts on our behalf or on behalf of our subsidiary or affiliate and to promote the success of our business. As of December 31, 2023, we had options to purchase 60,536 ordinary shares that remained outstanding under the 2012 Plan. 2015 Incentive Compensation Plan In March 2015, we adopted our 2015 Incentive Compensation Plan, or the 2015 Plan. The 2015 Plan provides for the grant of share options, share appreciation rights, restricted share awards, restricted share units, cash-based awards, other share-based awards and dividend equivalents to our company’s and our affiliates’ respective employees, non-employee directors and consultants. The reserved pool of shares under the 2015 Plan is the sum of (i) 661,745 shares; plus (ii) on January 1 of each calendar year during the term of the 2015 Plan, a number of shares equal to the least of: (x) 3% of the total number of shares outstanding on December 31 of the immediately preceding calendar year, (y) an amount determined by our board of directors, and (z) 1,965,930 shares. From and after the effective date of the 2015 Plan, no further grants or awards have been made under the 2012 Plan. Generally, shares that are forfeited, cancelled, terminated or expire unexercised, settled in cash in lieu of issuance of shares under the 2015 Plan or the 2012 Plan shall be available for issuance under new awards under the 2015 Plan. Generally, any shares tendered or withheld to pay the exercise price, purchase price of an award, or any withholding taxes shall be available for issuance under new awards. Shares delivered pursuant to “substitute awards” (awards granted in assumption or substitution of awards granted by a company acquired by us) shall not reduce the shares available for issuance under the 2015 Plan. As of December 31, 2023, we had options to purchase 631,675 ordinary shares, 1,674,902 unvested RSUs (a portion of which are subject to performance based vesting conditions), outstanding under the 2015 Plan. As of December 31, 2023, we had 2,561,000 ordinary shares reserved for additional grants. Subject to applicable law, the 2015 Plan is administered by our compensation committee, which has full authority in all matters related to the discharge of its responsibilities and the exercise of its authority under the plan. Awards under the 2015 Plan may be granted until 10 years after the effective date of the 2015 Plan. The terms of options granted under the 2015 Plan, including the exercise price, vesting provisions and the duration of an option, are determined by the compensation committee and set forth in an award agreement. Except as provided in the applicable award agreement, or in the discretion of the compensation committee, an option may be exercised only to the extent that it is then exercisable and shall terminate immediately upon a termination of service of the grantee. However, our award agreements generally provide for an exercise period that extends 90 days following the termination of the employment or service of the grantee, other than in special cases such as termination for cause. Share appreciation rights, or SARs, are awards entitling a grantee to receive a payment representing the difference between the base price per share of the right and the fair market value of a share on the date of exercise. SARs may be granted in tandem with an option or independent and unrelated to an option. The terms of SARs granted under the 2015 Plan, including the base price per share, vesting provisions and the duration of an SAR, shall be determined by the compensation committee and set forth in an award agreement. Except as provided in the applicable award agreement, or in the discretion of the compensation committee, an SAR may be exercised only to the extent that it is then exercisable and shall terminate immediately upon a termination of service of the grantee. We generally provide for an exercise period that extends 90 days following the termination of the employment or service of the grantee, other than in special cases such as termination for cause. At the discretion of the compensation committee, SARs will be payable in cash, ordinary shares or equivalent value or some combination thereof. 60 Restricted share awards are ordinary shares that are awarded to a grantee subject to the satisfaction of the terms and conditions established by the compensation committee in the award agreement. Until such time as the applicable restrictions lapse, restricted shares are subject to forfeiture and may not be sold, assigned, pledged or otherwise disposed of by the grantee who holds those shares. RSUs are awards covering a number of hypothetical units with respect to shares that are granted subject to such vesting and transfer restrictions and conditions of payment as the compensation committee may determine in an award agreement. RSUs, once vested, may be settled for the grantee in cash, ordinary shares of equivalent value, or a combination thereof. The 2015 Plan provides for the grant of cash-based award and other share-based awards (which are equity-based or equity related award not otherwise described in the 2015 Plan). The terms of such cash-based awards or other share-based shall be determined by the compensation committee and set forth in the award agreement. The compensation committee may grant dividend equivalents based on the dividends declared on shares that are subject to any award. Dividend equivalents may be subject to any limitations and/or restrictions determined by the compensation committee and shall be converted to cash or additional shares by such formula and at such time, and shall be paid at such times, as may be determined by the compensation committee. In the event of any dividend (excluding any ordinary dividend) or other distribution, recapitalization, share split, reverse share split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, split-off, combination, repurchase or exchange of shares or similar event (including a change in control) that affects the ordinary shares, the compensation committee shall make any such adjustments in such manner as it may deem equitable, including any or all of the following: (i) adjusting the number of shares available for grant under the 2015 Plan, (ii) adjusting the terms of outstanding awards, (iii) providing for a substitution or assumption of awards and (iv) cancelling awards in exchange for a payment in cash. In the event of a change of control, each outstanding award shall be treated as the compensation committee determines, including, without limitation, (i) that each award be honored or assumed, or equivalent rights substituted therefor, by the new employer or (ii) that all unvested awards will terminate upon the change in control. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that it is determined that neither (i) or (ii) in the preceding sentence will apply, all awards will become fully vested. 2015 Israeli Sub Plan The 2015 Israeli Sub Plan provides for the grant by us of awards pursuant to Sections 102 and 3(i) of the Ordinance, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. The 2015 Israeli Sub Plan is effective with respect to awards granted as of 30 days from the date we submitted it to the ITA. The 2015 Israeli Sub Plan provides for awards to be granted to those of our or our affiliates’ employees, directors and officers who are not Controlling Shareholders, as defined in the Ordinance, and who are considered Israeli residents, to the extent that such awards either are (i) intended to qualify for special tax treatment under the “capital gains track” provisions of Section 102(b) of the Ordinance or (ii) not intended to qualify for such special tax treatment. The 2015 Israeli Sub Plan also provides for the grant of awards under Section 3(i) of the Ordinance to our Israeli non-employee service providers and Controlling Shareholders, who are not eligible for such special tax treatment. 2015 U.S. Sub Plan The 2015 U.S. Sub Plan applies to grantees that are subject to U.S. federal income tax. The 2015 U.S. Sub Plan provides that options granted to the U.S. grantees will either be incentive stock options pursuant to Section 422 of the Code, or nonqualified stock options. Options, other than certain incentive stock options described below, must have an exercise price not less than 100% of the fair market value of an underlying share on the date of grant. Incentive stock options that are not exercised within 10 years from the grant date expire, provided that incentive stock options granted to a person holding more than 10% of our voting power will expire within five years from the date of the grant and must have an exercise price at least equal to 110% of the fair market value of an underlying share on the date of grant. The number of shares available under the 2015 Plan for grants of incentive stock options shall be the total number of shares available under the 2015 Plan subject to any limitations under the Code and provided that shares delivered pursuant to “substitute awards” shall reduce the shares available for issuance of incentive stock options under the 2015 Plan. It is the intention that no award shall be deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code unless and to the extent that the compensation committee specifically determines otherwise. If the compensation committee determines an award will be subject to Section 409A of the Code such awards shall be intended to comply in all respects with Section 409A of the Code, and the 2015 Plan and the terms and conditions of such awards shall be interpreted and administered accordingly. 61 Employee Share Purchase Plan We have adopted an employee share purchase plan, or ESPP, pursuant to which our employees and employees of our subsidiaries may elect to have payroll deductions (or, when not allowed under local laws or regulations, another form of payment) made on each pay day during the offering period in an amount not exceeding 15% of the compensation which the employees receive on each pay day during the offering period. To date, we have not granted employees the right to make purchases under the plan. The number of shares initially reserved for purchase under the ESPP was 242,425 ordinary shares, which was to be automatically increased annually on January 1 by a number of ordinary shares equal to the least of (i) 1% of the total number of shares outstanding on December 31 of the immediately preceding calendar year, (ii) an amount determined by our board of directors, if so determined prior to January 1 of the year on which the increase will occur, and (iii) 655,310 shares. The ESPP is to be administered by our board of directors or by a committee designated by the board of directors. Subject to those rights which are reserved to the board of directors or which require shareholder approval under Israeli law, our board of directors has designated the compensation committee to administer the ESPP. To the extent that we grant employees the right to make purchases under the ESPP, on the first day of each offering period, each participating employee will be granted an option to purchase on the exercise date of such offering period up to a number of our ordinary shares determined by dividing (1) the employee’s payroll deductions accumulated prior to such exercise date and retained in the employee’s account as of the exercise date by (2) the applicable purchase price. The applicable purchase price is to be based on a discount percentage of up to 15%, which percentage may be decreased by the board or the compensation committee, multiplied by the lesser of (1) the fair market value of an ordinary share on the exercise date, or (2) the fair market value of an ordinary share on the offering date. C. Board Practices Board of Directors Under the Companies Law, the management of our business is vested in our board of directors. Our board of directors may exercise all powers and may take all actions that are not specifically granted to our shareholders or to management. Our executive officers are responsible for our day-to-day management and have individual responsibilities established by our board of directors. Our Chief Executive Officer is appointed by, and serves at the discretion of, our board of directors, subject to the employment agreement that we have entered into with him. All other executive officers are also appointed by our board of directors and are subject to the terms of any applicable employment agreements that we may enter into with them. Under our articles, our board of directors must consist of at least five and not more than nine directors, including, to the extent applicable, at least two external directors who may be required to be appointed under the Companies Law. Our board of directors currently consists of nine directors. Our directors are divided into three classes with staggered three-year terms. Each class of directors consists, as nearly as possible, of one-third of the total number of directors constituting the entire board of directors (other than the external directors, to the extent applicable). At each annual general meeting of our shareholders, the election or re-election of directors following the expiration of the term of office of the directors of that class of directors is for a term of office that expires on the third annual general meeting following such election or re-election, such that at each annual general meeting the term of office of only one class of directors expires. Each director will hold office until the annual general meeting of our shareholders in which his or her term expires, unless he or she is removed by a vote of 65% of the total voting power of our shareholders at a general meeting of our shareholders or upon the occurrence of certain events, in accordance with the Companies Law and our articles. 62 In August 2019, we elected to be governed by an exemption under the Companies Law regulations that exempts us from appointing external directors and from complying with the Companies Law requirements related to the composition of the audit committee and compensation committee of our board of directors. Our eligibility for that exemption is conditioned upon: (i) the continued listing of our ordinary shares on the Nasdaq Stock Market (or one of a few select other non-Israeli stock exchanges); (ii) there not being a controlling shareholder (generally understood in this context to be a 25% or greater shareholder) of our company under the Companies Law; and (iii) our compliance with the Nasdaq Listing Rules requirements as to the composition of (a) our board of directors-which requires that we maintain a majority of independent directors (as defined under the Nasdaq Listing Rules) on our board of directors and (b) the audit and compensation committees of our board of directors (which require that such committees consist solely of independent directors (at least three and two members, respectively), as described under the Nasdaq Listing Rules). At the time that it determined to exempt our company from the external director requirement, our board affirmatively determined that we meet the conditions for exemption from the external director requirement, including that a majority of the members of our board, along with each of the members of the audit and compensation committees of the board, are independent under the Nasdaq Listing Rules. As a result of our election to be exempt from the external director requirement under the Companies Law, each of our directors (including our two directors who formerly served as external directors) is now assigned to one of the three, staggered classes of our board of directors, as follows: (i) the Class I directors are Jae Hyun (Jay) Lee, Yehoshua (Shuki) Nir and Dov Ofer, whose terms will expire at our annual general meeting of shareholders to be held in 2025 and when their successors are elected and qualified;; (ii) the Class II directors are Ofer Ben-Zur, Naama Halevi Davidov and Gabi Seligsohn, and their terms expire at our annual general meeting of shareholders to be held in 2026 and when their successors are elected and qualified; and (iii) the Class III directors are Yuval Cohen, Stephen Nigro and Ronen Samuel, and their terms expire at our annual general meeting of shareholders to be held in 2024 and when their successors are elected and qualified. Our board of directors has determined that eight of our directors, consisting of Yuval Cohen, Ofer Ben-Zur, Jae Hyun (Jay) Lee, Stephen Nigro, Yehoshua (Shuki) Nir, Dov Ofer, Gabi Seligsohn and Naama Halevi Davidov, constituting a majority of the members of the board, are independent under the rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market. The definition of independent director under the Nasdaq Stock Market rules specifies criteria whose aim is to ensure that there is no factor that would impair the ability of the independent director to exercise independent judgment, and furthermore requires that the board of directors affirmatively determine that the independent director can exercise independent judgment. Under the Companies Law and our articles, besides nominees who are chosen by our board of directors, nominees for director may also be proposed by any shareholder holding at least 1% of our outstanding voting power. However, any such shareholder may propose a nominee only if a written notice of such shareholder’s intent to propose a nominee has been given to our Secretary (or, if we have no such Secretary, our Chief Executive Officer) within seven days following our publication of notice of an upcoming annual shareholder meeting (or within 14 days after we publish a preliminary notification of an upcoming annual shareholder meeting). Any such shareholder nomination must include certain information, including, among other things, a description of all arrangements between the nominating shareholder and the proposed director nominee(s) and any other person pursuant to which the nomination(s) are to be made by the nominating shareholder, the consent of the proposed director nominee(s) to serve as our director(s) if elected and a declaration signed by the nominee(s) declaring that there is no limitation under the Companies Law preventing their election, and that all of the information that is required under the Companies Law to be provided to us in connection with such election has been provided. In addition, our articles allow our board of directors to appoint directors to fill vacancies on our board of directors for a term of office equal to the remaining period of the term of office of the director(s) whose office(s) have been vacated. External directors-when we are subject to, or choose to be bound by, the requirement to elect them-are elected for an initial term of three years and may be elected for additional three-year terms under the circumstances described below. 63 Under the Companies Law, our board of directors must determine the minimum number of directors who are required to have accounting and financial expertise. In determining the number of directors required to have such expertise, our board of directors must consider, among other things, the type and size of the company and the scope and complexity of its operations. Our board of directors has determined that the minimum number of directors of our company who are required to have accounting and financial expertise is one. External Directors Under the Companies Law, the boards of directors of companies whose shares are publicly traded, including companies with shares traded in the United States, are generally required to include at least two members who qualify as external directors. In August 2019, we elected to be governed by the exemption from maintaining external directors on our board under the Companies Law (as described above). Our election to exempt our company from compliance with the external director requirement can be reversed at any time by our board of directors, in which case we would need to hold a shareholder meeting to once again appoint external directors, whose election would be for a three-year term. The election of each external director would require approval by a majority vote of the shares present and voting at a meeting of shareholders, provided that either: ● such majority includes at least a majority of the shares held by all shareholders who are not controlling shareholders and who lack a personal interest in the election of the external director (other than a personal interest not deriving from a relationship with a controlling shareholder) that are voted at the meeting, excluding abstentions, to which we refer as a disinterested majority; or ● the total number of shares voted by non-controlling, disinterested shareholders and by shareholders (as described in the previous bullet point) against the election of the external director does not exceed 2% of the aggregate voting rights in the company. The term “controlling shareholder” as used in the Companies Law for purposes of all matters related to external directors and for certain other purposes (such as the requirements related to appointment to the audit committee or compensation committee, as described below), means a shareholder with the ability to direct the activities of the company, other than by virtue of being an office holder. A shareholder is presumed to be a controlling shareholder if the shareholder holds 50% or more of the voting rights in a company or has the right to appoint the majority of the directors of the company or its general manager (chief executive officer). For further information concerning the Companies Law provisions related to external directors, please see “ITEM 6. Directors, Senior Management and Employees - C. Board Practices - Board of Directors - External Directors” in our annual report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2018, which we filed with the SEC on March 26, 2019. Leadership Structure of the Board In accordance with the Companies Law and our articles, our board of directors is required to appoint one of its members to serve as chairman of the board of directors. Our board of directors has appointed Yuval Cohen to serve as chairman of the board of directors. Board Committees Audit Committee Our audit committee consists of three members: Naama Halevi Davidov (Chairperson), Dov Ofer, and Yehoshua (Shuki) Nir. 64 Companies Law Requirements Under the Companies Law, we are required to appoint an audit committee. The audit committee must be comprised of at least three directors. To the extent a company is required to appoint external directors, this committee must include all of the external directors, one of whom must serve as chairman of the committee. There are additional requirements as to the composition of the audit committee under the Companies Law. However, when we elected to exempt our company from the external director requirement, we concurrently elected to exempt our company from all of such requirements (which exemption is conditioned on our fulfillment of all Nasdaq listing requirements related to the composition of the audit committee). Nasdaq Listing Requirements Under Nasdaq corporate governance rules, we are required to maintain an audit committee consisting of at least three independent directors, each of whom is financially literate and one of whom has accounting or related financial management expertise. All members of our audit committee meet the requirements for financial literacy under the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and Nasdaq corporate governance rules. Our board of directors has determined that Dov Ofer qualifies as an audit committee financial expert, as defined by the SEC rules, and has the requisite financial experience, as defined by the Nasdaq corporate governance rules. Each of the members of our audit committee is “independent” as such term is defined in Rule 10A-3(b)(1) under the Exchange Act and satisfies the independent director requirements under the Nasdaq Stock Market rules. Audit Committee Role Our board of directors has adopted an audit committee charter that sets forth the responsibilities of the audit committee consistent with the rules and regulations of the SEC and the listing requirements of the Nasdaq Stock Market, as well as the requirements for such committee under the Companies Law, including the following: ● oversight of our independent registered public accounting firm and recommending the engagement, compensation or termination of engagement of our independent registered public accounting firm to the board of directors in accordance with Israeli law; ● recommending the engagement or termination of the person filling the office of our internal auditor; and ● recommending the terms of audit and non-audit services provided by the independent registered public accounting firm for pre-approval by our board of directors. Our audit committee provides assistance to our board of directors in fulfilling its legal and fiduciary obligations in matters involving our accounting, auditing, financial reporting, internal control and legal compliance functions by pre-approving the services performed by our independent accountants and reviewing their reports regarding our accounting practices and systems of internal control over financial reporting. Our audit committee also oversees the audit efforts of our independent accountants and takes those actions that it deems necessary to satisfy itself that the accountants are independent of management. Under the Companies Law, our audit committee is responsible for: ● determining whether there are deficiencies in the business management practices of our company, including in consultation with our internal auditor or the independent auditor, and making recommendations to the board of directors to improve such practices; ● determining whether to approve certain related party transactions (including transactions in which an office holder has a personal interest and whether such transaction is material or extraordinary under the Companies Law) (see “-Approval of Related Party Transactions under Israeli Law”); ● establishing the approval process (including, potentially, the approval of the audit committee and conducting a competitive procedure supervised by the audit committee) for certain transactions with a controlling shareholder or in which a controlling shareholder has a personal interest; 65 ● where the board of directors approves the working plan of the internal auditor, examining such working plan before its submission to the board of directors and proposing amendments thereto; ● examining our internal audit controls and internal auditor’s performance, including whether the internal auditor has sufficient resources and tools to fulfill his or her responsibilities; ● examining the scope of our auditor’s work and compensation and submitting a recommendation with respect thereto to our board of directors or shareholders, depending on which of them is considering the appointment of our auditor; and ● establishing procedures for the handling of employees’ complaints as to the management of our business and the protection to be provided to such employees. As part of its capacity in overseeing risk management activities and monitoring management’s policies and procedures, our audit committee also plays a significant strategic role in coordinating our cyber risk initiatives and policies and confirming their efficacy. Compensation Committee and Compensation Policy Our compensation committee consists of three members: Yehoshua (Shuki) Nir (Chairman), Stephen Nigro and Dov Ofer. Companies Law Requirements Under the Companies Law, the board of directors of a public company must appoint a compensation committee. To the extent a company is required to appoint external directors, the compensation committee must be comprised of at least three directors, including all of the external directors, who must constitute a majority of the members of, and include the chairman of, the compensation committee. There are additional requirements as to the composition of the compensation committee under the Companies Law. However, when we elected to exempt our company from the external director requirement, we concurrently elected to exempt our company from all of such requirements (including the three-member minimum). Our exemption under the Companies Law is conditioned on our fulfillment of all Nasdaq listing requirements related to the composition of the compensation committee. The duties of the compensation committee include the recommendation to the company’s board of directors of a policy regarding the terms of engagement of office holders, to which we refer as a compensation policy. That policy must be adopted by the company’s board of directors, after considering the recommendations of the compensation committee, and must be brought for approval by the company’s shareholders, which approval requires what we refer to as a Special Approval for Compensation. A Special Approval for Compensation requires shareholder approval by a majority vote of the shares present and voting at a meeting of shareholders called for such purpose, provided that either: (a) such majority includes at least a majority of the shares held by all shareholders who are not controlling shareholders and do not have a personal interest in such compensation arrangement; or (b) the total number of shares of non-controlling shareholders who do not have a personal interest in the compensation arrangement and who vote against the arrangement does not exceed 2% of the company’s aggregate voting rights. The compensation policy must serve as the basis for decisions concerning the financial terms of employment or engagement of office holders, including exculpation, insurance, indemnification or any monetary payment, obligation of payment or other benefit in respect of employment or engagement. The compensation policy must relate to certain factors, including advancement of the company’s objectives, the company’s business plan and its long-term strategy, and creation of appropriate incentives for office holders. It must also consider, among other things, the company’s risk management, size and the nature of its operations. The compensation policy must include certain principles, such as: a link between variable compensation and long-term performance and measurable criteria; the relationship between variable and fixed compensation; and the minimum holding or vesting period for variable, equity-based compensation. 66 The compensation committee is responsible for (a) recommending the compensation policy to a company’s board of directors for its approval (and subsequent approval by its shareholders) and (b) duties related to the compensation policy and to the compensation of a company’s office holders, as well as functions with respect to matters related to approval of the terms of engagement of office holders, including: ● recommending whether a compensation policy should continue in effect, if the then-current policy has a term of greater than three years (approval of either a new compensation policy or the continuation of an existing compensation policy must in any case occur every three years); ● recommending to the board of directors periodic updates to the compensation policy and assessing implementation of the compensation policy; ● approving compensation terms of executive officers, directors and employees that require approval of the compensation committee; ● determining whether the compensation terms of a chief executive officer nominee, which were determined pursuant to the compensation policy, will be exempt from approval of the shareholders because such approval would harm the ability to engage with such nominee; and ● determining, subject to the approval of the board and under special circumstances, override a determination of the company’s shareholders regarding certain compensation related issues. Consistent with the foregoing requirements, following the recommendation of our compensation committee, our board and our shareholders approved our compensation policy in July 2020 and August 2020, respectively. Following that approval, the compensation policy (in updated form, if applicable) will need to be recommended by the compensation committee and presented for the approval of the board and shareholders, every three years, in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Law. Nasdaq Listing Requirements Under Nasdaq corporate governance rules, we are required to maintain a compensation committee consisting of at least two independent directors. Each of the members of the compensation committee is required to be independent under Nasdaq rules relating to compensation committee members, which are different from the general test for independence of board and committee members. Each of the members of our compensation committee satisfies those requirements. Compensation Committee Role Our board of directors has adopted a compensation committee charter that sets forth the responsibilities of the compensation committee, which include: ● the responsibilities set forth in the compensation committee charter; ● reviewing and approving the grant of options and other incentive awards to the extent such authority is delegated by our board of directors; and ● reviewing, evaluating and making recommendations regarding the compensation and benefits for our non-employee directors. ESG Steering Committee Our board has appointed an ESG steering committee that is responsible for formulating policy, devising strategy, and ensuring governed execution concerning all ESG matters. Members of this committee include representatives of the middle and senior management levels from most departments of our company, including operations, technology, product, legal, finance, business, and HR. 67 With respect to oversight of ESG-related risks and opportunities, each board committee is assigned responsibility for oversight of matters most applicable to their responsibilities. We believe that allocating responsibility to a committee with relevant knowledge and experience improves the effectiveness of the board’s oversight. For example, the audit committee oversees risks related to regulatory, financial, and compliance matters, while the compensation committee oversees the implementation of our compensation policy and practices designed to ensure equitable pay across our organization. Compensation of Directors Under the Companies Law, compensation of directors requires the approval of a company’s compensation committee, the subsequent approval of the board of directors and, unless exempted under the regulations promulgated under the Companies Law, the approval of the shareholders at a general meeting. Where the director is also a controlling shareholder, the requirements for approval of transactions with controlling shareholders apply, as described below under “Disclosure of Personal Interests of a Controlling Shareholder and Approval of Certain Transactions.” For information regarding the current compensation package that is paid to our non-employee directors, see “B. Compensation-Director Compensation” in this ITEM 6. Our directors are also entitled to be paid reasonable travel, hotel and other expenses expended by them in attending board meetings and performing their functions as directors of the company, all of which is to be determined by the board of directors. External directors (when we are required to have them serving on our board of directors) are entitled to remuneration subject to the provisions and limitations set forth in the regulations promulgated under the Companies Law. Internal Auditor Under the Companies Law, the board of directors of an Israeli public company must appoint an internal auditor recommended by the audit committee. An internal auditor may not be: ● a person (or a relative of a person) who holds 5% or more of the company’s outstanding shares or voting rights; ● a person (or a relative of a person) who has the power to appoint a director or the general manager of the company; ● an office holder (including a director) of the company (or a relative thereof); or ● a member of the company’s independent auditor, or anyone on its behalf. The role of the internal auditor is to examine, among other things, our compliance with applicable law and orderly business procedures. The audit committee is required to oversee the activities and to assess the performance of the internal auditor as well as to review the internal auditor’s work plan. Hila Barr - Hoisman of Brightman Almagor & Zohar (Deloitte) serves as our internal auditor. Approval of Related Party Transactions Under Israeli Law Fiduciary Duties of Directors and Executive Officers The Companies Law codifies the fiduciary duties that office holders owe to a company. Each person listed in the table under “Directors and Senior Management” is an office holder of our company under the Companies Law. An office holder’s fiduciary duties consist of a duty of care and a duty of loyalty. The duty of care requires an office holder to act with the level of care with which a reasonable office holder in the same position would have acted under the same circumstances. The duty of loyalty requires that an office holder act in good faith and in the best interests of the company. 68 The duty of care includes a duty to use reasonable means to obtain: ● information on the advisability of a given action brought for his or her approval or performed by virtue of his or her position; and ● all other important information pertaining to any such action. The duty of loyalty includes a duty to: ● refrain from any conflict of interest between the performance of his or her duties to the company and his or her other duties or personal affairs; ● refrain from any activity that is competitive with the business of the company; ● refrain from exploiting any business opportunity of the company to receive a personal gain for himself or herself or others; and ● disclose to the company any information or documents relating to the company’s affairs which the office holder received as a result of his or her position as an office holder. Disclosure of Personal Interests of an Office Holder and Approval of Certain Transactions The Companies Law requires that an office holder promptly disclose to the board of directors any conflict of interest (referred to under the Companies Law as a “personal interest”) that he or she may be aware of and all related material information or documents concerning any existing or proposed transaction with the company. An interested office holder’s disclosure must be made promptly and, in any event, no later than the first meeting of the board of directors at which the transaction is considered. A personal interest includes an interest of any person in an act or transaction of a company, including a personal interest of such person’s relative or of a corporate body in which such person or a relative of such person is a 5% or greater shareholder, director or general manager (i.e., chief executive officer) or in which he or she has the right to appoint at least one director or the general manager, but excluding a personal interest stemming from one’s ownership of shares in the company. A personal interest furthermore includes the personal interest of a person for whom the office holder holds a voting proxy or the personal interest of the office holder with respect to his or her vote on behalf of a person for whom he or she holds a proxy even if such shareholder has no personal interest in the matter. An office holder is not, however, obliged to disclose a personal interest if it derives solely from the personal interest of his or her relative in a transaction that is not considered an extraordinary transaction. Under the Companies Law, an extraordinary transaction is defined as any of the following: ● a transaction other than in the ordinary course of business; ● a transaction that is not on market terms; or ● a transaction that may have a material impact on a company’s profitability, assets or liabilities. If it is determined that an office holder has a personal interest in a transaction which is not an extraordinary transaction, approval by the board of directors is required for the transaction, unless the company’s articles of association provide for a different method of approval. Further, so long as an office holder has disclosed his or her personal interest in a transaction, the board of directors may approve an action by the office holder that would otherwise be deemed a breach of his or her duty of loyalty. However, a company may not approve a transaction or action that is not in the best interests of the company or that is not performed by the office holder in good faith. An extraordinary transaction in which an office holder has a personal interest requires approval first by the company’s audit committee and subsequently by the board of directors. The compensation of, or an undertaking to indemnify or insure, an office holder who is not a director requires approval first by the company’s compensation committee, then by the company’s board of directors. If such compensation arrangement or an undertaking to indemnify or insure is inconsistent with the company’s stated compensation policy, or if the office holder is the chief executive officer (apart from a number of specific exceptions), then such arrangement is further subject to a Special Approval for Compensation. Arrangements regarding the compensation, indemnification or insurance of a director require the approval of the compensation committee, board of directors and shareholders by ordinary majority, in that order, and under certain circumstances, a Special Approval for Compensation. 69 Generally, a person who has a personal interest in a matter which is considered at a meeting of the board of directors or the audit or compensation committees may not be present at such a meeting or vote on that matter unless the chairman of the relevant committee or board of directors (as applicable) determines that he or she should be present in order to present the transaction that is subject to approval. If a majority of the members of the board committee or the board of directors (as applicable) has a personal interest in the approval of a transaction, then all directors may participate in discussions of the committee or the board of directors (as applicable) on such transaction and the voting on approval thereof, but shareholder approval is also required for such transaction. Disclosure of Personal Interests of Controlling Shareholders and Approval of Certain Transactions Pursuant to Israeli law, the disclosure requirements regarding personal interests that apply to directors and executive officers also apply to a controlling shareholder of a public company. The Companies Law provides a broader definition of a controlling shareholder solely with respect to the provisions pertaining to related party transactions. For such purposes, a controlling shareholder is a shareholder that has the ability to direct the activities of a company, including by holding 50% or more of the voting rights in a company or by having the right to appoint the majority of the directors of the company or its general manager (chief executive officer), and furthermore, by holding 25% or more of the voting rights if no other shareholder holds more than 50% of the voting rights. For this purpose, the holdings of all shareholders who have a personal interest in the same transaction will be aggregated. An extraordinary transaction between a public company and a controlling shareholder or in which a controlling shareholder has a personal interest and the terms of any compensation arrangement of a controlling shareholder who is an office holder or his relative, require the approval of a company’s audit committee (or compensation committee with respect to compensation arrangements), board of directors and shareholders, in that order. In addition, the shareholder approval must fulfil one of the following requirements: ● at least a majority of the shares held by all shareholders who do not have a personal interest in the transaction and who are present and voting at the meeting approves the transaction, excluding abstentions; or ● the shares voted against the transaction by shareholders who have no personal interest in the transaction and who are present and voting at the meeting do not exceed 2% of the voting rights in the company. To the extent that any such transaction with a controlling shareholder is for a period extending beyond three years, approval is required once every three years, unless, with respect to certain transactions, the audit committee determines that the duration of the transaction is reasonable given the circumstances related thereto. Arrangements regarding the compensation, indemnification or insurance of a controlling shareholder in his or her capacity as an office holder require the approval of the compensation committee, board of directors and shareholders by a Special Majority, in that order, and the terms thereof may not be inconsistent with the company’s stated compensation policy. Pursuant to regulations promulgated under the Companies Law, certain transactions with a controlling shareholder or his or her relative, with directors, or with the chief executive officer, that would otherwise require approval of a company’s shareholders may be exempt from shareholder approval upon certain determinations of the audit committee or compensation committee (as applicable), and the board of directors. Shareholder Duties Pursuant to the Companies Law, a shareholder has a duty to act in good faith and in a customary manner toward the company and other shareholders and to refrain from abusing his or her power in the company, including, among other things, in voting at a general meeting and at shareholder class meetings with respect to the following matters: ● an amendment to the company’s articles of association; ● an increase of the company’s authorized share capital; 70 ● a merger; or ● the approval of related party transactions and acts of office holders that require shareholder approval. A shareholder also has a general duty to refrain from discriminating against other shareholders. In addition, certain shareholders have a duty of fairness toward the company. These shareholders include any controlling shareholder, any shareholder who knows that he or she has the power to determine the outcome of a shareholder vote and any shareholder who has the power to appoint or to prevent the appointment of an office holder of the company or other power towards the company. The Companies Law does not define the substance of the duty of fairness, except to state that the remedies generally available upon a breach of contract will also apply in the event of a breach of the duty to act with fairness. Exculpation, Insurance and Indemnification of Directors and Officers Under the Companies Law, a company may not exculpate an office holder from liability for a breach of the duty of loyalty. An Israeli company may exculpate an office holder in advance from liability to the company, in whole or in part, for damages caused to the company as a result of a breach of duty of care but only if a provision authorizing such exculpation is included in its articles of association. Our articles include such a provision. A company may not exculpate in advance a director from liability arising out of a prohibited dividend or distribution to shareholders. Under the Companies Law, a company may indemnify an office holder in respect of the following liabilities and expenses incurred for acts performed by him or her as an office holder, either pursuant to an undertaking made in advance of an event or following an event, provided its articles of association include a provision authorizing such indemnification: ● financial liability imposed on him or her in favor of another person pursuant to a judgment, including a settlement or arbitrator’s award approved by a court. However, if an undertaking to indemnify an office holder with respect to such liability is provided in advance, then such an undertaking must be limited to events which, in the opinion of the board of directors, can be foreseen based on the company’s activities when the undertaking to indemnify is given, and to an amount or according to criteria determined by the board of directors as reasonable under the circumstances, and such undertaking shall detail the abovementioned foreseen events and amount or criteria; ● reasonable litigation expenses, including attorneys’ fees, incurred by the office holder (1) as a result of an investigation or proceeding instituted against him or her by an authority authorized to conduct such investigation or proceeding, provided that (i) no indictment was filed against such office holder as a result of such investigation or proceeding, and (ii) no financial liability was imposed upon him or her as a substitute for the criminal proceeding as a result of such investigation or proceeding or, if such financial liability was imposed, it was imposed with respect to an offense that does not require proof of criminal intent; and (2) in connection with a monetary sanction; and ● reasonable litigation expenses, including attorneys’ fees, incurred by the office holder or imposed by a court in proceedings instituted against him or her by the company, on its behalf, or by a third party, or in connection with criminal proceedings in which the office holder was acquitted, or as a result of a conviction for an offense that does not require proof of criminal intent. Under the Companies Law, a company may insure an office holder against the following liabilities incurred for acts performed by him or her as an office holder, if and to the extent provided in the company’s articles of association: ● a breach of the duty of loyalty to the company, provided that the office holder acted in good faith and had a reasonable basis to believe that the act would not harm the company; ● a breach of duty of care to the company or to a third party, to the extent such a breach arises out of the negligent conduct of the office holder; and 71 ● a financial liability imposed on the office holder in favor of a third party. Under the Companies Law, a company may not indemnify, exculpate or insure an office holder against any of the following: ● a breach of the duty of loyalty, except for indemnification and insurance for a breach of the duty of loyalty to the company to the extent that the office holder acted in good faith and had a reasonable basis to believe that the act would not harm the company; ● a breach of duty of care committed intentionally or recklessly, excluding a breach arising out of the negligent conduct of the office holder; ● an act or omission committed with intent to derive illegal personal benefit; or ● a fine or forfeit levied against the office holder. Under the Companies Law, exculpation, indemnification and insurance of office holders in a public company must be approved by the compensation committee and the board of directors and, with respect to certain office holders or under certain circumstances, also by the shareholders. See “-Approval of Related Party Transactions under Israeli Law.” Our articles permit us to exculpate, indemnify and insure our office holders to the fullest extent permitted or to be permitted by the Companies Law. We have obtained directors and officers liability insurance for the benefit of our office holders and intend to continue to maintain such coverage and pay all premiums thereunder to the fullest extent permitted by the Companies Law. In addition, we entered into agreements with each of our directors and executive officers exculpating them from liability to us for damages caused to us as a result of a breach of duty of care and undertaking to indemnify them, in each case, to the fullest extent permitted by our articles and the Companies Law, including with respect to liabilities resulting from a public offering of our shares, to the extent that these liabilities are not covered by insurance. D. Employees As of December 31, 2023, we had 873 employees, with 486 located in Israel, 124 in the United States, 214 in Europe and 49 in Asia Pacific. The following table shows the breakdown of our workforce of employees and subcontractors by category of activity as of the dates indicated: Area of Activity Service Sales and marketing Manufacturing and operations Research and development General and administrative Total 2021 As of December 31, 2022 2023 165 225 126 223 143 882 160 205 179 239 151 934 151 208 151 223 140 873 72 With respect to our Israeli employees, Israeli labor laws govern the length of the workday and workweek, minimum wages for employees, procedures for hiring and dismissing employees, determination of severance pay, annual leave, sick days, advance notice of termination of employment, payments to the National Insurance Institute, equal opportunity and anti-discrimination laws and other conditions of employment. While none of our employees is party to any collective bargaining agreements, certain provisions of the collective bargaining agreements between the Histadrut (General Federation of Labor in Israel) and the Coordination Bureau of Economic Organizations (including the Industrialists’ Associations) are applicable to our employees in Israel by order of the Israeli Ministry of the Economy and Industry. These provisions primarily concern pension fund benefits for all employees, insurance for work-related accidents, recuperation pay and travel expenses. We generally provide our employees with benefits and working conditions beyond the required minimums. With respect to our German employees, German and European labor laws govern the common employment terms including worktime, annual leave and employment termination. In addition to that our Kornit Digital Europe GmbH have a work council. The work council must be consulted about specific employee related issues and has the right to make proposals to management according to the German Works Constitution Act (BetrVG). We have never experienced any labor-related work stoppages or strikes and believe our relationships with our employees are good. We have implemented an employee culture of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion, or DEI, where we seek to create a gender-equitable, welcoming and comfortable work environment in which our employees can express themselves freely and feel supported to achieve their best.

Disclosure of a Registrant’s Action to Recover Erroneously Awarded Compensation None. ITEM 7. Major Shareholders and Related Party Transactions. A. Major Shareholders The following table sets forth information with respect to the beneficial ownership of our ordinary shares as of February 14, 2024 by: ● each person or entity known by us to own beneficially 5% or more of our outstanding ordinary shares; ● each of our directors and executive officers individually; and ● all of our executive officers and directors as a group. The beneficial ownership of our ordinary shares is determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC and generally includes any ordinary shares over which a person exercises sole or shared voting or investment power, or the right to receive the economic benefit of ownership. For purposes of the table below, we deem ordinary shares issuable pursuant to options that are currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days of February 14, 2024 to be outstanding and to be beneficially owned by the person holding the options for the purposes of computing the percentage ownership of that person, but we do not treat them as outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person. Except where otherwise indicated, we believe, based on information furnished to us by such owners, that the beneficial owners of the ordinary shares listed below have sole investment and voting power with respect to such shares. The number of record holders in the United States is not representative of the number of beneficial holders nor is it representative of where such beneficial holders are resident since many of these ordinary shares were held by brokers or other nominees. Unless otherwise noted below, each shareholder’s address is c/o Kornit Digital Ltd., 12 Ha’Amal Street, Rosh -Ha’Ayin 4809246, Israel. 73 A description of any material relationship that our principal shareholders have had with us or any of our predecessors or affiliates within the past three years is included under “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions.” The percentages set forth below are based on 47,735,256 ordinary shares outstanding as of February 14, 2024.

Recent Significant Changes in the Percentage Ownership of Major Shareholders In February 2022, each of Wasatch Advisors Inc. and Clal Insurance Enterprises Holdings Ltd., or Clal (each, former major shareholders of ours) again reported changes in its beneficial ownership that had taken place over the course of 2021, as their beneficial ownership percentages had decreased from 9.8% to 6.9%, and from 5.1% to 3.2%, respectively, over the course of 2021. Clal consequently ceased to be a 5% shareholder. In February 2023, Wasatch Advisors Inc. reported that it had increased its beneficial ownership percentage from 6.9% to 9.4%, reflecting an increase over the course of 2022. Each of Artisan Partners Limited Partnership, Granahan Investment Management, LLC (a former major shareholder) and Senvest Management, LLC became a new 5% shareholder over the course of 2022, reporting beneficial ownership that constituted 8.8%, 7.0% and 8.3%, respectively in February 2023. In February 2024, each of Wasatch Advisors Inc. and Granahan Investment Management, LLC reported that its beneficial ownership had decreased below 5% during 2023, thereby causing it to cease to be a major shareholder of ours. In addition, Artisan Partners Limited Partnership reported a decrease in its beneficial ownership over the course of 2023, now holding 7.8% of our outstanding shares as of February 2024, while Senvest Management, LLC reported an increase in in its beneficial ownership in 2023, with its holdings comprising 9.2% of our outstanding shares as of February 2024. A new major shareholder, Morgan Stanley, acquired ordinary shares in 2023 that constitute 6.6% of our outstanding ordinary shares as of February 2024. Other than the foregoing, there have been no recent significant changes in the percentage ownership of major shareholders. Record Holders Based upon a review of the information provided to us by our transfer agent, as of February 14, 2024, there were two holders of record of our ordinary shares, of which one record holder, holding approximately 99.93% of our outstanding ordinary shares, had a registered address in the United States. These numbers are not representative of the number of beneficial holders of our shares, nor is it representative of where such beneficial holders reside, since all of these shares held of record in the United States were held through CEDE & Co., the nominee company of the Depository Trust Company, on behalf of hundreds of firms of brokers and banks in the United States, who in turn held such shares on behalf of several thousand clients and customers. B. Related Party Transactions Our policy is to enter into transactions with related parties on terms that, on the whole, are no more favorable, or no less favorable than those available from unaffiliated third parties. Based on our experience in the business sectors in which we operate and the terms of our transactions with unaffiliated third parties, we believe that all of the transactions described below met this policy standard at the time they occurred. The following is a description of material transactions, or series of related material transactions, since January 1, 2023, to which we were or will be a party and in which the other parties included or will include our directors, executive officers, holders of more than 10% of our voting securities or any member of the immediate family of any of the foregoing persons. 75 Agreements and Arrangements with, and Compensation of, Directors and Executive Officers Employment Agreements We have entered into written employment agreements with each of our executive officers. These agreements provide for notice periods of varying duration for termination of the agreement by us or by the relevant executive officer, during which time the executive officer will continue to receive base salary and benefits (except for the accrual of vacation days). These agreements also contain customary provisions regarding non-competition, confidentiality of information and assignment of inventions. However, the enforceability of the non-competition provisions may be limited under applicable law. Options, RSUs and PSUs Since our inception we have granted options to purchase our ordinary shares to our officers and certain of our directors, and, commencing in 2018 (following approval by our shareholders), we began awarding annual RSU grants to our non-employee directors, and we also award them to our executive officers. Our option agreements may contain, and the terms of our RSU grants do contain, acceleration provisions upon certain merger, acquisition, or change of control transactions (in the case of the RSU grants, upon termination of, or resignation by, a non-employee director in connection with any such transaction or immediately thereafter). Our equity grant agreements for our officers also provide, in certain cases, for acceleration of vesting in the event of certain merger, acquisition, or change of control transactions. In 2021 and 2022, following shareholder approvals, we granted RSUs as well as performance based RSUs, or PSUs, to our chief executive officer (as described below under “Compensation Arrangement for CEO”). We describe our equity incentive plans under “ITEM 6.B. Compensation”. If the relationship between us and an executive officer or a director is terminated, except for cause (as defined in the option plans), all options that are vested will generally remain exercisable for ninety days after such termination. Indemnification Agreements Our articles permit us to exculpate, indemnify and insure each of our directors and office holders to the fullest extent permitted by Israeli law. We have entered into indemnification agreements with each of our directors and executive officers, undertaking to indemnify them to the fullest extent permitted by Israeli law, including with respect to liabilities resulting from a public offering of our shares, to the extent that these liabilities are not covered by insurance. We have also obtained Directors and Officers insurance for each of our executive officers and directors. For further information, see “ITEM 6.C Board Practices-Exculpation, Insurance and Indemnification of Directors and Officers.” Compensation Arrangement for CEO At our 2022 special general meeting of shareholders, held on December 29, 2022, our shareholders approved (following approval by our compensation committee and board of directors) an updated compensation package for our chief executive officer (the “CEO”), Ronen Samuel. We have provided below the updated compensation figures for the CEO, as adjusted based on that approval by our shareholders: Base Salary: NIS 1.46 million (approximately $392,520) Target Annual Bonus (% Base Salary): 100% Target Total Cash (Base + Bonus): $785,040 Long-Term Incentive/ Equity Target Value: $2,500,000 annually Target Total Direct Compensation: $3,285,040 76 The compensation package includes the following specific elements: (i) Total Shareholder Return (TSR) PSUs: PSUs valued at approximately $1,250,00 are granted to the CEO annually. ● The actual number of TSR PSUs to be granted each year with the foregoing $1,250,000 value are determined based on a valuation methodology generally used for such awards (e.g., Monte Carlo method) as of the date of the relevant annual shareholder meeting or as of the relevant anniversary of the date of the meeting. ● The vesting of the TSR PSUs is dependent upon the performance of our TSR, as measured by our Company’s share price, relative to the performance of the S&P 500 index, which determination is made for a two-year (30% weight) and three year (70% weight) period of time, upon the two-year and three-year anniversaries of each grant date, with the TSR PSUs either partially or fully vesting (if either/both performance conditions are met at or above the threshold level) or expiring (if the performance conditions are not met) on the three-year anniversary of each grant date; ● There is “double trigger” vesting and acceleration of vesting due to termination of the CEO in certain circumstances. ● The actual payout on the TSR PSUs (i.e., how many vest), will be determined based on our performance relative to a payout curve, with threshold and maximum performance levels, whereby the payout can be anywhere from zero to in excess of the payout target, as follows: Kornit TSR Percentile Rank < 35th Percentile 35th Percentile 55th Percentile 75th Percentile > 75th Percentile Payout (% of Target)* 0% 50% (Threshold) 100% (Target)** 150% 200% (Maximum) * Subject to linear interpolation ** Target payout requires above median performance and the applicable payout will be capped at target if our company’s absolute TSR performance for the relevant measurement period is negative, irrespective of our company’s percentile ranking for such period. (ii) RSUs: RSUs valued at approximately $625,000 are granted to the CEO annually. ● The actual number of RSUs to be granted each August 12 with the foregoing $625,000 value is based on the 30-day volume weighted average price of Kornit’s ordinary shares over the 30-day period preceding each such grant date. ● The RSUs vest over a four-year period, with 25% of the RSUs vesting upon the first anniversary of the grant date and an additional 6.25% of the RSUs vesting upon the conclusion of each of the next 12 quarters thereafter, subject to the CEO’s continuous employment. ● There is “double trigger” vesting and acceleration of vesting due to termination of the CEO in certain circumstances. (iii) Options: Options valued at approximately $625,000 (the number of options to be granted each August 12 to be determined based on the binomial pricing methodology as of the date of grant) are granted to the CEO annually. ● the options have an exercise price equal to the closing price of Kornit’s ordinary shares on the grant date; ● subject to Mr. Samuel’s continued employment as our CEO, the options vest over a four-year period, with 25% of the options vesting upon the first anniversary of the grant date and an additional 6.25% of the options vesting upon the conclusion of each of the next 12 quarters thereafter, subject to the CEO’s continuous employment; ● There is “double trigger” vesting and acceleration of vesting due to termination of the CEO in certain circumstances; and ● The options have a ten-year term, at the conclusion of which any unexercised options would expire. 77 “Clawback” Condition The compensation terms for our CEO are subject, in the case of annual bonus and long-term incentive/equity compensation, to a potential repayment obligation to our Company/ cancellation (as applicable), under certain circumstances, as described in our compensation policy. In particular, in the event of an accounting restatement, we would be entitled to recover from the CEO a bonus payment in the amount by which it exceeds the bonus amount that would have been paid under the financial statements, as restated. In the case of performance-based equity compensation, i.e., TSR PSUs, which vest based on the performance of our share price (in comparison to the S&P 500 index companies), which itself derives in part from our reported financial results, we may cancel vested TSR PSUs to the extent that our share price following the accounting restatement drops below the level at which it minimally would have had to be in order for the TSR PSUs to have vested. If the subject TSR PSUs have been settled for underlying shares and the shares have been sold on the market already, we may seek monetary recovery to the extent the TSR PSUs would not have vested originally based on our share price following the accounting restatement. Our right to recoup an excess payment/equity grant to our CEO applies to cash and equity incentive compensation paid during the three completed fiscal years immediately preceding the date on which we are required to prepare the accounting restatement or the CEO engaged in the misconduct. In order to recoup any such amounts, we must make a claim for recoupment prior to the second anniversary of the fiscal year end of the restated financial statements (as per the terms of our compensation policy). Hedging/Pledging Restrictions To ensure that the equity portion of our CEO’s compensation package serves solely to motivate our CEO to create value for our shareholders, our CEO is prohibited from creating “short” positions or engaging in other hedging activity with respect to our ordinary shares, which restrictions are based on our insider trading policy, and apply equally to our CEO. For a similar reason, our CEO will generally be prohibited from pledging the equity to be granted to him as collateral for a loan that may be received by him. C. Interests of Experts and Counsel Not applicable. ITEM 8. Financial Information. A. Statements and Other Financial Information We have appended our financial statements at the end of this annual report, starting at page F-1, as part of this annual report. Legal Proceedings From time to time, we may become party to litigation or other legal proceedings that we consider to be a part of the ordinary course of our business. Currently, and in the recent past, other than as described below, we are not and have not been a party to any legal proceedings, nor are there any legal proceedings (including governmental proceedings) pending or, to our knowledge, threatened against us, that our management believes, individually or in the aggregate, would have a significant effect on our financial position or profitability. We intend to defend against any claims to which we may become subject, and to proceed with any claims that we may need to assert against third parties, in a vigorous fashion. Securities Class Action Lawsuits On February 15, 2023, a securities class action complaint was filed by a shareholder of Kornit in U.S. federal court in New Jersey, naming our company, our chief executive officer, Ronen Samuel, and our former chief financial officer, Alon Rozner, as defendants. The complaint asserts claims under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act, and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder, and seeks unspecified damages. The complaint alleges misrepresentations by our company in our Exchange Act disclosures which caused our ordinary shares to trade at artificially inflated prices during the period between February 2021 and July 2022. 78 On February 17, 2023, an additional securities class action complaint was filed by a shareholder of Kornit in U.S. federal court in New Jersey, naming our company, our directors during the subject period (described below), our chief executive officer, Ronen Samuel, our former chief financial officer, Alon Rozner, the underwriters for our November 2021 follow-on public offering and Amazon (which sold shares in that public offering) as defendants. The complaint asserts claims under Sections 11, 12(a)(2) and 15 of the Securities Act, Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act, and Rule 10b-5 promulgated under the Exchange Act, and seeks unspecified damages. The complaint alleges false and misleading statements by our company in our registration statement and prospectus supplement for the November 2021 follow-on offering and in our Exchange Act disclosures which caused our ordinary shares to be sold in that offering, and to trade in an ongoing manner, at artificially inflated prices during the period between August 2021 and July 2022. On August 30, 2023, in the Genesee County case, the Court granted an unopposed motion to consolidate the two actions, to appoint certain plaintiffs represented by Bernstein Litowitz as lead plaintiffs (“Lead Plaintiffs”), and to appoint Bernstein Litowitz as lead counsel. On October 27, 2023, Lead Plaintiffs filed a consolidated complaint. The consolidated complaint alleges that, between February 2021 and July 2022, the Company made misrepresentations and omissions in our public statements and disclosures in violation of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder. Lead Plaintiffs assert these Exchange Act claims against the Company, Mr. Samuel, and Mr. Rozner, seek to recover on behalf of a putative class of Kornit shareholders who acquired shares between February 17, 2021 and July 5, 2022, and seek unspecified damages. The consolidated complaint also asserts claims under the Securities Act, alleging that the Company made misrepresentations and omissions in our registration statement and prospectus for the 2021 Offering; it asserts these Securities Act claims against Kornit, Mr. Samuel, Mr. Rozner, certain current and former Kornit officers and directors, and the underwriters for the 2021 Offering (but not against Amazon) (together, “Defendants”). Defendants moved to dismiss the consolidated complaint on December 21, 2023. Lead Plaintiffs filed an opposition to Defendants’ motion to dismiss on February 16, 2024. Pursuant to a schedule stipulated between the parties and ordered by the Court, Defendants will file their reply in further support of their motion to dismiss no later than April 1, 2024 We believe the lawsuits are without merit and have been defending against these cases vigorously. As of the date hereof, we are unable to estimate a range of loss, if any, that could result were there to be adverse final decisions in these cases, and estimated liabilities have not been recorded by the company in our financial statements. Dividend Distribution Policy We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our ordinary shares. We do not anticipate paying any dividends in the foreseeable future. We currently intend (subject to any extraordinary market conditions that might arise) to retain future earnings, if any, to finance operations and expand our business. To the extent that volatile or depressed market conditions (whether in the wake of the coronavirus outbreak or otherwise) reduce the trading price of our ordinary shares substantially for an extended period of time, we may potentially consider using a portion of our cash reserves toward share repurchases. Our board of directors has sole discretion whether to pay dividends (or to effect share repurchases). If our board of directors decides to pay dividends, the form, frequency and amount will depend upon our future operations and earnings, capital requirements and surplus, general financial condition, contractual restrictions and other factors that our directors may deem relevant. See “ITEM 3.D. Risk Factors- Risks Related to Our Ordinary Shares- We have never paid cash dividends on our share capital, and we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future” and, in Exhibit 2.2 to this annual report, “Description of Kornit Digital Ltd. Ordinary Shares- Dividend and Liquidation Rights” for an explanation concerning the payment of dividends under Israeli law. 79 B.

Agreements with Amazon Master Purchase Agreement On January 10, 2017, we entered into a master purchase agreement, or the Purchase Agreement, with Amazon Corporate LLC, a subsidiary of Amazon.com, Inc., or Amazon. Under the Purchase Agreement, as amended in March 2017, January 2018, and June 2018, Amazon may purchase, and we have committed to supply, AVHD6 digital direct-to-garment printers and NeoPigment ink and other consumables at agreed-upon prices which are subject to volume. We also agreed to provide maintenance services and extended warranties to Amazon at agreed-upon prices. 80 The Purchase Agreement provides for an “end of life” program. We are required to notify Amazon 12 months in advance if it intends to stop supporting one of the products or services supplied by us and to continue to manufacture the product or provide such service during the applicable period. Subject to certain exceptions, we are required to continue to supply ink in such quantities as Amazon requires for at least 36 months after the earlier of (1) the end of the term of the Purchase Agreement or (2) 18 months following the purchase of the last product sold pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. The Purchase Agreement requires us to make arrangements to ensure continuity of our supply of products if we do not comply with its requirements to supply the products or the services under the agreement or becomes insolvent. The Purchase Agreement also provides for penalties on a sliding scale in the case of late delivery or if our systems are unavailable for certain specific periods. There are no minimum spending commitments under the Purchase Agreement. The term of the Purchase Agreement was five years beginning on May 1, 2016 and extends automatically for additional one-year periods unless terminated by Amazon. The Purchase Agreement is subject to customary termination provisions, including material uncured breaches, insolvency or our acquisition by a competitor of Amazon. The Purchase Agreement may also be terminated by Amazon without cause subject to an agreed advance notice period. New Transaction Agreement and New Warrant We previously (in January 2017) entered into a transaction agreement with Amazon pursuant to which we had issued to Amazon a warrant to purchase our ordinary shares, which had vested and was exercised, in its entirety, with all underlying shares having been sold by Amazon, prior to 2023. On September 14, 2020, we and Amazon entered into a new transaction agreement, or the New Transaction Agreement, pursuant to which we issued to an affiliate of Amazon a warrant, or the New Warrant, to acquire up to 3,401,028 of our ordinary shares, or the New Warrant Shares, at a purchase price of $59.26 per share, which is based on the 30-trading day VWAP prior to the execution of the New Transaction Agreement. The New Warrant also provides for cashless (net) exercise. The New Warrant Shares underlying the New Warrant are subject to vesting as a function of payments of up to an aggregate of $400 million by Amazon and its affiliates over a five-year period for two different categories of product lines and services as follows: Purchased Amount Maximum Number of Vesting Shares Number of Vesting Shares per $5 Million Payment Existing Product Lines and Services $250 million 1,943,445 38,869 New Product Lines and Services $150 million 1,457,583 48,587 “Existing” products refers to any product line that has been purchased by Amazon from Kornit before the date of the issuance of the New Warrant, for example, products from the Kornit Avalanche and the Kornit Atlas printing system family and related ink and spare parts. “New” products refer to any product line that has not been purchased by Amazon before the date of the issuance of the New Warrant and may be purchased by Amazon in the future. “New” products include any future potential new applications that are printed using existing products. Neither the New Warrant nor the Purchase Agreement, as amended, contain any pricing terms or minimum purchase agreements for “New” products, and no “New” product has been qualified for use by Amazon. The New Warrant is exercisable through the earlier of (1) January 10, 2027 and (2) the fifth anniversary of the date that all shares underlying under the Original Warrant are vested (i.e., the date on which Amazon and its affiliates have collectively made gross payments totaling $150 million to the Company or its affiliates in connection with invoices in respect of orders placed under the Purchase Agreement). Upon the consummation of a change of control transaction (as defined in the New Warrant), subject to certain exceptions, the unvested portion of the New Warrant will vest in full and become fully exercisable. 81 The exercise price and the number of New Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the New Warrant are subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments. The New Warrant also limits Amazon’s beneficial ownership to 4.999% of our outstanding shares unless Amazon waives this limit upon 61 days’ notice, in which case Amazon’s beneficial ownership is then limited to 9.999% of our outstanding shares. The New Transaction Agreement includes customary representations, warranties and covenants of our company and Amazon. The New Transaction Agreement restricts any transfer of the New Warrant and New Warrant Shares issuable thereunder, except under certain circumstances set forth in the New Transaction Agreement. Under the New Transaction Agreement, the registration rights that applied under the Original Transaction Agreement to Original Warrant Shares are deemed to apply to the New Warrant Shares as well. The New Transaction Agreement also contains certain customary standstill restrictions with respect to an acquisition of our shares (other than an acquisition of the shares underlying the Original Warrant and the New Warrant), solicitation of proxies and other actions that seek to influence the control of our company. These standstill restrictions remain in effect until such time as the New Warrant Shares issued under the New Warrant or that remain unexercised under the New Warrant represent less than 2% of our outstanding shares. As of December 31, 2023, 1,787,953 New Warrant Shares had vested and were issuable under the New Warrant.

Exchange Controls There are currently no Israeli currency control restrictions on payments of dividends or other distributions with respect to our ordinary shares or the proceeds from the sale of the shares, except for the obligation of Israeli residents to file reports with the Bank of Israel regarding some transactions. However, legislation remains in effect under which currency controls can be imposed by administrative action at any time. The ownership or voting of our ordinary shares by non-residents of Israel, except with respect to citizens of countries which are in a state of war with Israel, is not restricted in any way by our articles or by the laws of the State of Israel. E. Taxation Israeli Tax Considerations The following is a brief summary of the material Israeli tax consequences concerning the ownership and disposition of our ordinary shares by our shareholders. This summary does not discuss all the aspects of Israeli tax law that may be relevant to a particular investor in light of his or her personal investment circumstances or to some types of investors subject to special treatment under Israeli law. Examples of such investors include residents of Israel or traders in securities who are subject to special tax regimes not covered in this discussion. Because parts of this discussion are based on new tax legislation that has not yet been subject to judicial or administrative interpretation, we cannot assure you that the appropriate tax authorities or the courts will accept the views expressed in this discussion. The discussion below is subject to change, including due to amendments under Israeli law or changes to the applicable judicial or administrative interpretations of Israeli law, which change could affect the tax consequences described below. Capital Gains Taxes Applicable to Non-Israeli Resident Shareholders. Israeli capital gains tax is imposed on the disposal of capital assets by a non-Israeli resident if such assets are either (i) located in Israel; (ii) shares or rights to shares in an Israeli resident company, or (iii) represent, directly or indirectly, rights to assets located in Israel, unless a specific exemption is available or unless a tax treaty between Israel and the seller’s country of residence provides otherwise. Capital gain is generally subject to tax at the corporate tax rate (23% in 2018 and thereafter), if generated by a company, or at the rate of 25% if generated by an individual, or 30% in the case of sale of shares by a Substantial Shareholder (i.e., a person who holds, directly or indirectly, alone or together with such person’s relative or another person who collaborates with such person on a permanent basis, 10% or more of any of the company’s “means of control” (including, among other things, the right to receive profits of the company, voting rights, the right to receive proceeds upon liquidation and the right to appoint a director)) at the time of sale or at any time during the preceding 12-month period. Individual and corporate shareholders dealing in securities in Israel are taxed at the tax rates applicable to business income (a corporate tax rate for a corporation and a marginal tax rate of up to 47% for an individual in 2023) unless the benefiting provisions of an applicable treaty applies. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a non-Israeli resident (individual or corporation) who derives capital gains from the sale of shares in an Israeli resident company that were purchased after the company was listed for trading on a recognized stock exchange in Israel or outside of Israel will generally be exempt from Israeli tax so long as the shares were not held through a permanent establishment that the non-Israeli resident maintains in Israel (and with respect to shares listed on a recognized stock exchange outside of Israel, so long as neither the shareholder nor the particular capital gain is otherwise subject to the Israeli Income Tax Law (Inflationary Adjustments) 5745-1985). However, non-Israeli corporations will not be entitled to the foregoing exemption if Israeli residents: (i) have a controlling interest of more than 25% in such non-Israeli corporation or (ii) are the beneficiaries of, or are entitled to, 25% or more of the revenues or profits of such non-Israeli corporation, whether directly or indirectly. These provisions dealing with capital gain are not applicable to a person whose gains from selling or otherwise disposing of the shares are deemed to be business income. 83 Additionally, a sale of shares by a non-Israeli resident may be exempt from Israeli capital gains tax under the provisions of an applicable tax treaty. For example, under the United States-Israel Tax Treaty, the sale, exchange or other disposition of shares of an Israeli company by a shareholder who (i) is a U.S. resident (for purposes of the treaty), (ii) holds the shares as a capital asset, and (iii) is entitled to claim the benefits afforded to such person by the treaty, is generally exempt from Israeli capital gains tax. Such exemption will not apply if: (i) the capital gain arising from such sale, exchange or disposition is attributed to real estate located in Israel; (ii) the capital gain arising from such sale, exchange or disposition is attributed to royalties; (iii) the capital gain arising from the sale, exchange or disposition that can be attributed to a permanent establishment of the shareholder that is maintained in Israel under certain terms; (iv) the shareholder holds, directly or indirectly, shares representing 10% or more of the voting rights during any part of the 12-month period preceding such sale exchange or other disposition, subject to certain conditions; or (v) such U.S. resident is an individual and was present in Israel for a period or periods aggregating to 183 days or more during the relevant taxable year. In any such case, the sale, exchange or disposition of our ordinary shares would be subject to Israeli tax, to the extent applicable; however, under the United States-Israel Tax Treaty, a U.S. resident would be permitted to claim a credit for such taxes against the U.S. federal income tax imposed with respect to such sale, exchange or disposition, subject to the limitations under U.S. law applicable to foreign tax credits. The United States-Israel Tax Treaty does not relate to U.S. state or local taxes. In some instances where our shareholders may be liable for Israeli tax on the sale of their ordinary shares, the payment of the consideration may be subject to the withholding of Israeli tax at source. Shareholders may be required to demonstrate that they are exempt from tax on their capital gains in order to avoid withholding at source at the time of sale. Specifically, in transactions involving a sale of all of the shares of an Israeli resident company, such as a merger or other transaction, the ITA may require from shareholders who are not liable for Israeli tax to sign declarations in forms specified by that authority or obtain a specific exemption from the ITA to confirm their status as non-Israeli residents, and, in the absence of such declarations or exemptions, may require the purchaser of the shares to withhold taxes at source. Taxation of Non-Israeli Shareholders on Receipt of Dividends. Non-Israeli residents (whether individuals or corporations) are generally subject to Israeli income tax on the receipt of dividends paid on our ordinary shares at the rate of 25% or 30% (if the recipient is a Substantial Shareholder at the time of receiving the dividend or at any time during the preceding 12 months) or 15% if the dividend is distributed from income attributed to a Benefited Enterprise and 20% with respect to a Preferred Enterprise, subject to certain conditions. Such dividends are generally subject to Israeli withholding tax at a rate of 25% so long as the shares are registered with a nominee company (whether the recipient is a Substantial Shareholder or not) and 15% if the dividend is distributed from income attributed to a Benefited Enterprise or 20% if the dividend is distributed from income attributed to a Preferred Enterprise, or such reduced rate as may be provided under an applicable tax treaty (subject to the receipt in advance of a valid certificate from the ITA allowing for a reduced tax rate, or such lower tax rate as may be provided in an applicable tax treaty). For example, under the United States-Israel Tax Treaty, the maximum rate of tax withheld at source in Israel on dividends paid to a holder of our ordinary shares who is a U.S. resident (for purposes of the United States-Israel Tax Treaty) is 25%. However, generally, the maximum rate of withholding tax for dividends not generated by a Benefited Enterprise and paid to a U.S. corporation holding 10% or more of the outstanding voting rights from the start of the tax year preceding the distribution of the dividend through (and including) the distribution of the dividend, is 12.5%, provided that not more than 25% of the gross income for such preceding year consists of certain types of dividends and interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a distribution of dividends to non-Israeli residents is subject to withholding tax at source at a rate of 15% if the dividend is distributed from income attributed to a Benefited Enterprise for such U.S. corporation shareholder, provided that the condition related to our gross income for the previous year (as set forth in the previous sentence) is met. U.S. residents who are subject to Israeli withholding tax on a dividend may be entitled to a credit or deduction for United States federal income tax purposes in the amount of the taxes withheld, subject to detailed rules contained in U.S. tax legislation. If the dividend is attributable partly to income derived from a Benefited Enterprise or a Preferred Enterprise, and partly from other sources of income, the withholding rate will be a blended rate reflecting the relative portions of the two types of income. 84 A non-Israeli resident who receives dividends from which tax was withheld is generally exempt from the obligation to file tax returns in Israel with respect to such income, provided that (i) such income was not generated from business conducted in Israel by the taxpayer, (ii) the taxpayer has no other taxable sources of income in Israel with respect to which a tax return is required to be filed, and (iii) the taxpayer is not obligated to pay excess tax (as further explained below). Estate and Gift Tax. Israeli law presently does not impose estate or gift taxes. Excess Tax. Individuals who are subject to tax in Israel (whether any such individual is an Israeli resident or non-Israeli resident) are also subject to an additional tax at a rate of 3% on annual income exceeding NIS 698,280 for 2023, which amount is linked to the annual change in the Israeli consumer price index, including, but not limited to, dividends, interest and capital gain. U.S. Federal Income Taxation The following is a description of the material U.S. federal income tax consequences to U.S. Holders (as defined below) of the acquisition, ownership and disposition of our ordinary shares. This description addresses only the U.S. federal income tax consequences to purchasers of our ordinary shares and that will hold such ordinary shares as capital assets. This description does not address tax considerations applicable to holders that may be subject to special tax rules, including, without limitation: ● banks, financial institutions or insurance companies; ● real estate investment trusts, regulated investment companies or grantor trusts; ● dealers or traders in securities, commodities or currencies; ● tax-exempt entities; ● certain former citizens or long-term residents of the United States; ● persons that received our ordinary shares as compensation for the performance of services; ● persons that will hold our ordinary shares as part of a “hedging,” “integrated” or “conversion” transaction or as a position in a “straddle” for U.S. federal income tax purposes; ● persons owning ordinary shares in connection with a trade or business conducted outside the United States; ● certain U.S. expatriates; ● partnerships (including entities classified as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes) or other pass-through entities, or holders that will hold our ordinary shares through such an entity; ● U.S. Holders (as defined below) whose “functional currency” is not the U.S. dollar; or ● holders that own directly, indirectly or through attribution 10.0% or more of the voting power or value of our ordinary shares. Moreover, this description does not address the United States federal estate, gift, alternative minimum tax or net investment income tax consequences, or any state, local or non-U.S. tax consequences, of the acquisition, ownership and disposition of our ordinary shares. 85 This description is based on the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code, existing, proposed and temporary U.S. Treasury Regulations and judicial and administrative interpretations thereof, in each case as in effect and available on the date hereof. Each of the foregoing is subject to change, which change could apply retroactively and could affect the tax consequences described below. There can be no assurances that the U.S. Internal Revenue Service will not take a different position concerning the tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership and disposition of our ordinary shares or that such a position would not be sustained. For purposes of this description, a “U.S. Holder” is a beneficial owner of our ordinary shares that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, is: ● a citizen or resident of the United States; ● a corporation (or other entity treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) created or organized in or under the laws of the United States or any state thereof, including the District of Columbia; ● an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source; or ● a trust if such trust has validly elected to be treated as a U.S. person for U.S. federal income tax purposes or if (1) a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over its administration and (2) one or more U.S. persons have the authority to control all of the substantial decisions of such trust. If a partnership (or any other entity treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) holds ordinary shares, the tax treatment of a partner in such partnership will generally depend on the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. Such a partner or partnership should consult its tax advisor as to its tax consequences. You should consult your tax advisor with respect to the U.S. federal, state, local and foreign tax consequences of acquiring, owning and disposing of our ordinary shares. Distributions Subject to the discussion below under “- Passive Foreign Investment Company Considerations,” if you are a U.S. Holder, the gross amount of any distribution that we pay you with respect to our ordinary shares before reduction for any non-U.S. taxes withheld therefrom generally will be includible in your income as dividend income to the extent such distribution is paid out of our current or accumulated earnings and profits as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles. To the extent that the amount of any cash distribution exceeds our current and accumulated earnings and profits as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles, it will be treated first as a tax-free return of your adjusted tax basis in our ordinary shares and thereafter as capital gain. We do not expect to maintain calculations of our earnings and profits under U.S. federal income tax principles. Therefore, if you are a U.S. Holder, you should expect that the entire amount of any cash distribution generally will be reported as dividend income to you; provided, however, that distributions of ordinary shares to U.S. Holders that are part of a pro rata distribution to all of our shareholders generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax. Non-corporate U.S. Holders may qualify for the lower rates of taxation with respect to dividends on ordinary shares applicable to long term capital gains (i.e., gains from the sale of capital assets held for more than one year), provided that certain conditions are met, including certain holding period requirements and the absence of certain risk reduction transactions. Moreover, such reduced rate shall not apply if we are a PFIC for the taxable year in which it pays a dividend or were a PFIC for the preceding taxable year. Dividends will not be eligible for the dividends received deduction generally allowed to corporate U.S. Holders. If you are a U.S. Holder, subject to the discussion below, dividends that we pay you with respect to our ordinary shares will be treated as foreign source income, which may be relevant in calculating your foreign tax credit limitation. Subject to certain conditions and limitations, non-U.S. tax withheld on dividends may be deducted from your taxable income or credited against your U.S. federal income tax liability. The limitation on foreign taxes eligible for credit is calculated separately with respect to specific classes of income. For this purpose, dividends that we distribute generally should constitute “passive category income,” or, in the case of certain U.S. Holders, “general category income.” A foreign tax credit for foreign taxes imposed on distributions may be denied if you do not satisfy certain minimum holding period requirements. The rules relating to the determination of the foreign tax credit are complex, and you should consult your tax advisor to determine whether and to what extent you will be entitled to this credit. 86 Although, as discussed above, dividends that we pay to a U.S. Holder will generally be treated as foreign source income, for periods in which we are a “United States-owned foreign corporation,” a portion of dividends paid by us may be treated as U.S. source income solely for purposes of the foreign tax credit. We would be treated as a United States-owned foreign corporation if 50% or more of the total value or total voting power of our stock is owned, directly, indirectly or by attribution, by United States persons. To the extent any portion of our dividends is treated as U.S. source income pursuant to this rule, the ability of a U.S. Holder to claim a foreign tax credit for any Israeli withholding taxes payable in respect of our dividends may be limited. Treasury Regulations that apply to taxable years beginning on or after December 28, 2021 may in some circumstances prohibit a U.S. Holder from claiming a foreign tax credit unless the taxes are creditable under the U.S.-Israel Tax Treaty and the holder is eligible for benefits under the U.S.-Israel Tax Treaty and elects its application. Holders should consult their own tax advisors about the impact of, and any exception available to, the special sourcing rule described in this paragraph, and the desirability of making, and the method of making, such an election. The amount of any dividend income paid in NIS will be the U.S. dollar amount calculated by reference to the exchange rate in effect on the date of receipt, regardless of whether the payment is in fact converted into U.S. dollars. If the dividend is converted into U.S. dollars on the date of receipt, you should not be required to recognize exchange gain or loss in respect of the dividend income. You may have exchange gain or loss if the dividend is converted into U.S. dollars after the date of receipt. Exchange gain or loss will be treated as U.S.-source ordinary income or loss. Sale, Exchange or Other Disposition of Ordinary Shares Subject to the discussion above under “- Passive Foreign Investment Company Considerations,” if you are a U.S. Holder, you generally will recognize an amount of gain or loss on the sale, exchange or other disposition of our ordinary shares equal to the difference between the amount realized on such sale, exchange or other disposition and your tax basis in our ordinary shares, and such gain or loss will be capital gain or loss. The tax basis in an ordinary share generally will equal the U.S. dollar cost of such ordinary share. If you are a non-corporate U.S. Holder, capital gain from the sale, exchange or other disposition of ordinary shares generally will be eligible for a preferential rate of taxation applicable to capital gains, if your holding period for such ordinary shares exceeds one year. The deductibility of capital losses for U.S. federal income tax purposes is subject to limitations under the Code. Any such gain or loss that a U.S. Holder recognizes generally will be treated as U.S. source income or loss for foreign tax credit limitation purposes. If an Israeli tax is imposed on the sale or other disposition of our ordinary shares, your amount realized will include the gross amount of the proceeds of the sale or other disposition before deduction of the Israeli tax. You should consult your tax adviser as to whether the Israeli tax on gains may be creditable against your U.S. federal income tax on foreign-source income from other sources. Passive Foreign Investment Company Considerations If we were to be classified as a “passive foreign investment company,” or PFIC, in any taxable year, a U.S. Holder would be subject to special rules generally intended to reduce or eliminate any benefits from the deferral of U.S. federal income tax that a U.S. Holder could derive from investing in a non-U.S. company that does not distribute all of its earnings on a current basis. A non-U.S. corporation will be classified as a PFIC for federal income tax purposes in any taxable year in which, after applying certain look through rules, either ● at least 75% of its gross income is “passive income”; or; ● at least 50% of the average quarterly value of its gross assets (which may be determined in part by the market value of our ordinary shares, which is subject to change) is attributable to assets that produce “passive income” or are held for the production of passive income; 87 Passive income for this purpose generally includes dividends, interest, royalties, rents, gains from commodities and securities transactions, the excess of gains over losses from the disposition of assets which produce passive income, and includes amounts derived by reason of the temporary investment of funds raised in offerings of our ordinary shares. If a non-U.S. corporation owns at least 25% by value of the stock of another corporation, the non-U.S. corporation is treated for purposes of the PFIC tests as owning its proportionate share of the assets of the other corporation and as receiving directly its proportionate share of the other corporation’s income. If we are classified as a PFIC in any year with respect to which a U.S. Holder owns our ordinary shares, our ordinary shares generally will continue to be treated as shares in a PFIC with respect to such U.S. Holder in all succeeding years during which the U.S. Holder owns our ordinary shares, regardless of whether we continue to meet the tests described above. Based on certain estimates of our gross income and gross assets and the nature of our business, we believe that we were not classified as a PFIC for the taxable year ended December 31, 2022. Because PFIC status must be determined annually based on tests which are factual in nature, our PFIC status in future years will depend on our income, assets and activities in those years. In addition, because the market price of our ordinary shares is likely to fluctuate and because that market price may affect the determination of whether we will be considered a PFIC, a decline in the value of our ordinary shares may result in our becoming a PFIC. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that we will not be considered a PFIC for any taxable year and we do not intend to make a determination of our or any of our future subsidiaries’ PFIC status in the future. A U.S. Holder may be able to mitigate some of the adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences described below with respect to owning our ordinary shares if we are classified as a PFIC for our taxable year ending December 31, 2023, provided that such U.S. Holder is eligible to make, and successfully makes, either a “mark-to-market” election or a qualified electing fund election described below for the taxable year in which its holding period begins. If we were a PFIC, and you are a U.S. Holder, then unless you make one of the elections described below, a special tax regime, which we refer to as the Excess Distribution Regime, will apply to both (a) any “excess distribution” by us to you (generally, your ratable portion of distributions in any year which are greater than 125% of the average annual distribution received by you in the shorter of the three preceding years or your holding period for our ordinary shares) and (b) any gain realized on the sale or other disposition of our ordinary shares. Under the Excess Distribution Regime, any excess distribution and realized gain will be treated as ordinary income and will be subject to tax as if (a) the excess distribution or gain had been realized ratably over your holding period, (b) the amount deemed realized in each year had been subject to tax in each year of that holding period at the highest marginal rate for such year (other than income allocated to the current period or any taxable period before we became a PFIC, which would be subject to tax at the U.S. Holder’s regular ordinary income rate for the current year and would not be subject to the interest charge discussed below), and (c) the interest charge generally applicable to underpayments of tax had been imposed on the taxes deemed to have been payable in those years. Certain elections may be available that would result in an alternative treatment of our ordinary shares. If we are determined to be a PFIC, the Excess Distribution Regime described in this paragraph would also apply to indirect distributions and gains deemed to be realized by U.S. Holders in respect of any future subsidiary of ours that also may be determined to be PFICs. If we are a PFIC for any taxable year during which a U.S. Holder holds our ordinary shares, then in lieu of being subject to the tax and interest charge rules discussed above, a U.S. Holder may make an election to include gain on the stock of a PFIC as ordinary income under a mark-to-market method, provided that such ordinary shares are “regularly traded” on a “qualified exchange.” In general, our ordinary shares will be treated as “regularly traded” for a given calendar year if more than a de minimis quantity of our ordinary shares are traded on a qualified exchange on at least 15 days during each calendar quarter of such calendar year. Although the IRS has not published any authority identifying specific exchanges that may constitute “qualified exchanges,” Treasury Regulations provide that a qualified exchange is (a) a United States securities exchange that is registered with the SEC, (b) the United States market system established pursuant to section 11A of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, or (c) a non-U.S. securities exchange that is regulated or supervised by a governmental authority of the country in which the market is located, provided that (i) such non-U.S. exchange has trading volume, listing, financial disclosure, surveillance and other requirements designed to prevent fraudulent and manipulative acts and practices, to remove impediments to and perfect the mechanism of a free and open, fair and orderly, market, and to protect investors; and the laws of the country in which such non-U.S. exchange is located and the rules of such non-U.S. exchange ensure that such requirements are actually enforced and (ii) the rules of such non- U.S. exchange effectively promote active trading of listed stocks. Our ordinary shares are listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market, which is a United States securities exchange that is registered with the SEC. However, no assurance can be given that our ordinary shares meet the requirements to be treated as “regularly traded” for purposes of the mark-to-market election. In addition, because a mark-to-market election cannot be made for any lower-tier PFICs that we may own, a U.S. Holder may continue to be subject to the Excess Distribution Regime with respect to such holder’s indirect interest in any investments held by us that are treated as an equity interest in a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes, including stock in any future subsidiary of ours that is treated as a PFIC. 88 If a U.S. Holder makes an effective mark-to-market election, such U.S. Holder will include in each year that we are a PFIC as ordinary income the excess of the fair market value of such U.S. Holder’s ordinary shares at the end of the year over such U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in our ordinary shares. Such U.S. Holder will be entitled to deduct as an ordinary loss in each such year the excess of such U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in our ordinary shares over their fair market value at the end of the year, but only to the extent of the net amount previously included in income as a result of the mark-to- market election. A U.S. Holder will not mark-to-market gain or loss for any taxable year in which we are not classified as a PFIC. If a U.S. Holder makes an effective mark-to-market election, in each year that we are a PFIC, any gain such U.S. Holder recognizes upon the sale or other disposition of such U.S. Holder’s ordinary shares will be treated as ordinary income and any loss will be treated as ordinary loss, but only to the extent of the net amount of previously included income as a result of the mark-to-market election. A U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in our ordinary shares will be increased by the amount of any income inclusion and decreased by the amount of any deductions under the mark-to-market rules. If a U.S. Holder makes a mark-to market election, it will be effective for the taxable year for which the election is made and all subsequent taxable years unless our ordinary shares are no longer regularly traded on a qualified exchange or the IRS consents to the revocation of the election. U.S. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisers about the availability of the mark-to-market election, and whether making the election would be advisable in their particular circumstances. Where a company that is a PFIC meets certain reporting requirements, a U.S. Holder can avoid certain adverse PFIC consequences described above by making a “qualified electing fund,” or QEF, election to be taxed currently on its proportionate share of the PFIC’s ordinary income and net capital gains. Generally, a QEF election should be made on or before the due date for filing a U.S. Holder’s federal income tax return for the first taxable year in which it held our ordinary shares. If a timely QEF election is made, an electing U.S. Holder of our ordinary shares will be required to include in its ordinary income such U.S. Holder’s pro rata share of our ordinary earnings and to include in its long-term capital gain income such U.S. Holder’s pro rata share of our net capital gain, whether or not distributed. Under Section 1293 of the Code, a U.S. Holder’s pro rata share of our ordinary income and net capital gain is the amount which would have been distributed with respect to such U.S. Holder’s ordinary shares if, on each day during our taxable year, we had distributed to each holder of our ordinary shares a pro rata share of that day’s ratable share of our ordinary earnings and net capital gain for such year. In certain cases in which a QEF does not distribute all of its earnings in a taxable year, its U.S. Holders may also be permitted to elect to defer payment of some or all of the taxes on the QEF’s undistributed income but will then be subject to an interest charge on the deferred amount. We intend to provide, upon request, all information that a U.S. Holder making a QEF election is required to obtain for U.S. federal income tax purposes (e.g., the U.S. Holder’s pro rata share of ordinary income and net capital gain), and intend to provide, upon request, a “PFIC Annual Information Statement” as described in Treasury Regulation section 1.1295-1 (or in any successor IRS release or Treasury regulation), including all representations and statements required by such statement. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors to determine whether any of these elections would be available and if so, what the consequences of the alternative treatments would be in their particular circumstances. If a U.S. Holder owns our ordinary shares during any year in which we are a PFIC, the U.S. Holder generally will be required to file an IRS Form 8621 with respect to us, generally with the U.S. Holder’s federal income tax return for that year. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding whether we are a PFIC and the potential application of the PFIC rules. 89 Disposition of Foreign Currency Foreign currency received as dividends on our ordinary shares or on the sale or retirement of an ordinary share will have a tax basis equal to its U.S. dollar value at the time the foreign currency is received. Foreign currency that is purchased will generally have a tax basis equal to the U.S. dollar value of the foreign currency on the date of purchase. Any gain or loss recognized on a sale or other disposition of a foreign currency (including upon exchange for U.S. dollars) will be U.S. source ordinary income or loss. Tax on Net Investment Income A U.S. Holder that is an individual or estate, or a trust that does not fall into a special class of trusts that is exempt from the tax, will be subject to a 3.8% tax on the lesser of (1) the U.S. Holder’s “net investment income” for the relevant taxable year and (2) the excess of the U.S. Holder’s modified adjusted gross income for the taxable year over a certain threshold (which in the case of individuals will be between $125,000 and $250,000, depending on the individual’s circumstances). A U.S. Holder’s net investment income generally will include its dividends on our ordinary shares and net gains from dispositions of our ordinary shares, unless those dividends or gains are derived in the ordinary course of the conduct of trade or business (other than trade or business that consists of certain passive or trading activities). Net investment income, however, may be reduced by deductions properly allocable to that income. A U.S. Holder that is an individual, estate or trust is urged to consult its tax adviser regarding the applicability of the Medicare tax to its income and gains in respect of its investment in the ordinary shares. Backup Withholding Tax and Information Reporting Requirements U.S. backup withholding tax and information reporting requirements may apply to certain payments to certain holders of our ordinary shares. Information reporting generally will apply to payments of dividends on, and to proceeds from the sale or redemption of, our ordinary shares made within the United States, or by a U.S. payor or U.S. middleman, to a holder of our ordinary shares, other than an exempt recipient (including a payee that is not a U.S. person that provides an appropriate certification and certain other persons). A payor will be required to withhold backup withholding tax from any payments of dividends on, or the proceeds from the sale or redemption of, ordinary shares within the United States, or by a U.S. payor or U.S. middleman, to a holder, other than an exempt recipient, if such holder fails to furnish its correct taxpayer identification number or otherwise fails to comply with, or establish an exemption from, such backup withholding tax requirements. Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules will be allowed as a credit against the beneficial owner’s U.S. federal income tax liability, if any, and any excess amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules may be refunded, provided that the required information is timely furnished to the IRS. Foreign Asset Reporting Certain U.S. Holders, who are individuals, are required to report information relating to an interest in our ordinary shares, subject to certain exceptions (including an exception for shares held in accounts maintained by financial institutions). U.S. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding their information reporting obligations, if any, with respect to their ownership and disposition of our ordinary shares. The above description is not intended to constitute a complete analysis of all tax consequences relating to acquisition, ownership and disposition of our ordinary shares. You should consult your tax advisor concerning the tax consequences of your particular situation. F. Dividends and Paying Agents. Not applicable. G. Statement by Experts. Not applicable. 90 H. Documents on Display We are currently subject to the informational requirements of the Exchange Act applicable to foreign private issuers and fulfill the obligations of these requirements by filing reports with the SEC. As a foreign private issuer, we are exempt from the rules under the Exchange Act relating to the furnishing and content of proxy statements, and our officers, directors and principal shareholders are exempt from the reporting and short-swing profit recovery provisions contained in Section 16 of the Exchange Act. In addition, we are not required under the Exchange Act to file periodic reports and financial statements with the SEC as frequently or as promptly as U.S. companies whose securities are registered under the Exchange Act. However, we file with the SEC, within 120 days after the end of each subsequent fiscal year, an annual report on Form 20-F containing financial statements which will be examined and reported on, with an opinion expressed, by an independent public accounting firm. We also furnish to the SEC reports on Form 6-K containing quarterly unaudited financial information for the first three quarters of each fiscal year. The SEC maintains an Internet website that contains reports and other information regarding issuers that file electronically with the SEC. Our filings with the SEC are also available to the public through the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov. As permitted under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(d)(1) (C), we post our annual reports filed with the SEC on our website at http://www.kornit.com. We will furnish hard copies of such reports to our shareholders upon request free of charge. The information contained on our website is not part of this or any other report filed with or furnished to the SEC. I. Subsidiary Information Not applicable. J. Annual Report to Security Holders Not applicable. ITEM 11. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risks. We are exposed to a variety of financial risks, including market risk (including foreign exchange risk and price risk), credit and interest risks and liquidity risk. Our overall risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimize potential adverse effects on our financial performance. Foreign Currency Exchange Risk Due to our international operations, currency exchange rates impact our financial performance. In 2023, approximately 81% of our revenues were denominated in U.S. dollars, 14% of our revenues were denominated in Euros and 5% of our revenues were denominated in Great Britain Pounds. Conversely, in 2023, approximately 16% of our purchases of raw materials and components of our systems and ink and other consumables were denominated in either NIS or in NIS prices that are linked to U.S. dollars. Similarly, a majority of our operating costs, which were largely comprised of labor costs, were denominated in NIS, due to our operations in Israel. Accordingly, our results of operations may be materially affected by fluctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to the NIS and the Euro. The following table presents information about the changes in the exchange rates of the U.S. dollar against the NIS and the Euro: Period 2021 2022 2023 91 Change in Average Exchange Rate U.S. Dollar against the NIS (%) U.S. Dollar against the Euro (%) (6.2) 4.0 9.7 (3.7) 12.5 (2.7) The figures above represent the change in the average exchange rate in the given year compared with the average exchange rate in the immediately preceding year. Negative figures represent depreciation of the U.S. dollar compared with the NIS or Euro (as applicable) and positive figures represent appreciation of the U.S. dollar compared with the NIS or Euro (as applicable). We estimate that a 10% increase or 10% decrease in the value of the NIS against the U.S. dollar would have decreased or increased our net income by approximately $(15.2 million) or $12.5 million in 2022, and $(8.5 million) or $7.0 million in 2023, respectively. We estimate that a 10% increase or 10% decrease in the value of the Euro against the U.S. dollar would have decreased or increased our net income by approximately $1.3 million or $(0.7 million) in 2022, and $0.9 million or $(1.2 million) in 2023, respectively. These estimates of the impact of fluctuations in currency exchange rates on our historic results of operations may be different from the impact of fluctuations in exchange rates on our future results of operations since the mix of currencies comprising our revenues and expenses may change. 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 at the date of the transaction or the average exchange rate dollar during the reporting period to the United States. To protect against an increase in the dollar-denominated value of expenses paid in NIS during the year, we have instituted a foreign currency cash flow hedging program, which seeks to hedge a portion of the economic exposure associated with our anticipated NIS-denominated expenses using derivative instruments. We intend to manage risks by using instruments such as foreign currency forward and swap contracts and other methods. During 2022 and 2023, we entered into forward and option contracts to hedge against the risk of overall changes in future cash flow from payments of payroll and related expenses denominated in NIS. We expect that the substantial majority of our revenues will continue to be denominated in U.S. dollars for the foreseeable future and that a significant portion of our expenses will continue to be denominated in NIS. We will continue to monitor exposure to currency fluctuations. However, we cannot provide any assurances that our hedging activities will be successful in protecting us in full from adverse impacts from currency exchange rate fluctuations. In addition, since we only plan to hedge a portion of our foreign currency exposure, our results of operations may be adversely affected due to the impact of currency fluctuations on the unhedged aspects of our operations. Credit Risk, Liquidity Risk and Interest Rate Risk Our investment strategy is to achieve a return that will allow us to preserve capital and maintain liquidity requirements. We invest primarily in debt securities, specifically corporate debt securities. By policy, we limit the amount of credit exposure to any one issuer. As of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2023, we did not have any material (realized) losses on our marketable debt securities. As of December 31, 2023, unrealized losses on our marketable debt securities were partially due to temporary interest rate fluctuations as a result of higher market interest rates compared with interest rates at the time of purchase. We account for both fixed and variable rate securities at fair value with changes on gains and losses recorded in Other Comprehensive Income until the securities are sold. Other Market Risks We do not believe that we have any material exposure to inflationary or other market risks. ITEM 12. Description of Securities Other than Equity Securities.

Not applicable ITEM 15. Controls and Procedures. (a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures Our management evaluated, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act), as of December 31, 2023. Based on their evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that as of December 31, 2023, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective such that the information required to be disclosed by us 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 is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. (b) Management annual report on internal control over financial reporting Our management, under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Our internal control over financial reporting is a process to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: ● pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; ● provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and ● provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Our management assessed the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022 based on the criteria established in “Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013)” published by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this assessment, management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2023. (c) Attestation report of the independent registered public accounting firm The attestation report of Kost Forer Gabbay & Kasierer, a member of EY Global, an independent registered public accounting firm in Israel, on our management’s assessment of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023 is provided on page F-2, as included under Item 18 of this annual report. 93 (d) Changes in internal control over financial reporting There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the period covered by this annual report that have materially affected, or that are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. ITEM 16. [Reserved] ITEM 16A. Audit Committee Financial Expert. Our board of directors has determined that Naama Halevi Davidov, who serves on the audit committee of our board of directors and who meets the “independent director” definition under the Nasdaq Listing Rules, qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert,” as defined under the rules and regulations of the SEC. ITEM 16B. Code of Ethics. We have adopted a code of ethics and business conduct applicable to our executive officers, directors and all other employees. A copy of the code, as most recently updated in August 2020, is delivered to every employee of our company and is available to investors and others on our website at http://ir.kornit.com/ or by contacting our investor relations department. Under Item 16B of Form 20-F, if a waiver or amendment of the code of ethics and business conduct applies to our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer, controller or other persons performing similar functions and relates to standards promoting any of the values described in Item 16B(b) of Form 20-F, we will disclose such waiver or amendment (i) on our website within five business days following the date of amendment or waiver in accordance with the requirements of Instruction 4 to such Item 16B or (ii) through the filing of a Report of Foreign Private Issuer on Form 6-K. We did not provide such a waiver or adopt such an amendment during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. ITEM 16C. Principal Accountant Fees and Services. Fees billed or expected to be billed by Kost, Forer, Gabbay & Kasierer, a member of Ernst & Young Global, and other members of Ernst & Young Global for professional services for each of the last two fiscal years were as follows: Audit fees Audit-Related Fees Tax Fees All Other Fees Total Year Ended December 31, 2022 Year Ended December 31, 2023 Amount (in thousands of dollars) Amount Percentage Percentage $ $ 775 - 23 50 848 91% $ 0% 3% 6% 100% $ 600 10 21 631 95% 2% 0% 3% 100% “Audit fees” are the aggregate fees billed for the audit of our annual financial statements. This category also includes services that generally the independent accountant provides, such as consents and assistance with and review of documents filed with the SEC. 94 “Audit-related fees” are the aggregate fees billed for assurance and related services that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit and are not reported under audit fees. These fees primarily include accounting consultations regarding the accounting treatment of matters that occur in the regular course of business, implications of new accounting pronouncements and other accounting issues that occur from time to time. “Tax fees” include fees for professional services rendered by our independent registered public accounting firm for tax compliance and tax advice on actual or contemplated transactions. “Other fees” include fees for services rendered by our independent registered public accounting firm with respect to government incentives and other matters. Audit Committee’s Pre-approval Policies and Procedures Our audit committee follows pre-approval policies and procedures for the engagement of our independent accountant to perform certain audit and non-audit services. Pursuant to those policies and procedures, which are designed to assure that such engagements do not impair the independence of our auditors, the audit committee pre-approves annually a catalog of specific audit and non-audit services in the categories of audit service, audit-related service and tax services that may be performed by our independent accountants. ITEM 16D. Exemptions from the Listing Standards for Audit Committees. Not applicable. ITEM 16E. Purchases of Equity Securities by the Issuer and Affiliated Purchasers. On August 10, 2022, we announced that our board of directors had approved a $75 million repurchase program for our ordinary shares, subject to Israeli court approval, which was obtained on December 15, 2022 for an initial six-month repurchase period. On July 18, 2023, we received Israeli court approval for a six-month extension of the repurchase program covering the then-remaining available amount under the program. On December 17, 2023, we requested Israeli court approval for an additional six-month extension for the repurchase of up to the remaining available amount under the repurchase program, which was obtained on January 22, 2024. Under the repurchase program, we may make repurchases from time to time through open market repurchases or privately negotiated transactions, subject to market conditions, applicable legal requirements, and other relevant factors. We effect open market repurchases under the program in accordance with the requirements of Rule 10b-18 under the Exchange Act. We may also, from time to time, enter into plans in accordance with the affirmative defense provided by Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act to facilitate repurchases of our shares. The repurchase program does not obligate us to acquire any particular amount of our ordinary shares, and it may be modified, suspended, or terminated, at any time at our discretion. The timing and actual number of shares repurchased may depend on a variety of factors, including price, general business and market conditions, and alternative investment opportunities. All repurchased shares are classified as treasury shares: In the twelve months of 2023, we repurchased, pursuant to the repurchase program, an aggregate of 2,652,051 of our ordinary shares in open market transactions, in accordance with Rule 10b-18, at an average price of $22.95 per share, leaving $19.2 million remaining under the current board authorization as of December 31, 2023. 95 The table below presents a summary of the ordinary shares repurchased by us under our repurchase program during 2023.

ITEM 16F. Change in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant. Not applicable. ITEM 16G. Corporate Governance. The Nasdaq Global Select Market requires companies with securities listed thereon to comply with its corporate governance standards. As a foreign private issuer, we are not required to comply with all of the rules that apply to listed domestic U.S. companies. Pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5615(a)(3), we have notified Nasdaq that with respect to the corporate governance practices described below, we instead follow Israeli law and practice and accordingly will not follow the Nasdaq Listing Rules. Except for the differences described below, we do not believe there are any significant differences between our corporate governance practices and those that apply to a U.S. domestic issuer under the Nasdaq corporate governance rules. However, we may in the future decide to use the foreign private issuer exemption with respect to some or all of the other Nasdaq corporate governance rules, in which case we will update our disclosure in this Item 16G of Form 20-F. ● Quorum requirement for shareholder meetings: As permitted under the Companies Law, pursuant to our articles, the quorum required for an ordinary meeting of shareholders consists of at least two shareholders present in person, by proxy or by other voting instrument, who hold at least 25% of the voting power of our shares (and in an adjourned meeting, with some exceptions, two shareholders, regardless of the voting power associated with their shares), instead of 33 1/3% of the issued share capital, as required under the Nasdaq Listing Rules. ● Nomination of directors. With the exception of external directors (if applicable to us at the time) and directors elected by our board of directors due to vacancy, our directors are elected, in a staggered manner, by an annual meeting of our shareholders to hold office until the third annual meeting following their election. The nominations for directors, which are presented to our shareholders by our board of directors, are generally made by the board of directors itself, in accordance with the provisions of our articles of association and the Companies Law. Nominations need not be made by a nominating committee of our board of directors consisting solely of independent directors or otherwise, as required under the Nasdaq Listing Rules. ITEM 16H.

Insider Trading Policies Disclosure for this item is not yet required in this annual report. ITEM 16K. Cybersecurity Risk management and strategy We prioritize the management of cybersecurity risk and the protection of information across our enterprise by embedding data protection and cybersecurity risk management in our operations. Our processes for assessing, identifying, and managing material risks from cybersecurity threats have been integrated into our overall risk management system and processes. 96 As a foundation of this approach, we have implemented a layered governance structure to help assess, identify and manage cybersecurity risks. Our privacy and cybersecurity policies encompass incident response procedures, information security and vendor management. In order to help develop these policies and procedures, we monitor the privacy and cybersecurity laws, regulations and guidance applicable to us in the regions where we do business (including ISO27001, GDPR and CSL\DSL\PIPL), as well as proposed privacy and cybersecurity laws, regulations, guidance and emerging risks. We undergo penetration testing 3-4 times a year, and in 2023 one of the focus areas of our internal audit was cyber security. With respect to third party service providers, we obligate our main information technology vendors to adhere to privacy and cybersecurity measures, and we perform risk assessments of vendors having access to our systems or sensitive personal data, including their ability to protect data from unauthorized access. As described in Item 3.D “Risk Factors,” our operations rely on the secure processing, storage and transmission of confidential and other information in our computer systems and networks. Computer viruses, hackers, employee or vendor misconduct, and other external hazards could expose our information systems and those of our vendors to security breaches, cybersecurity incidents or other disruptions, any of which could materially and adversely affect our business, including by way of disruption of operations resulting from inability to carry out manufacturing, sales activity, shipping and other business operations, financial losses due to direct costs associated with investigation, remediation, and legal fees and indirect costs may encompass increased insurance premiums, loss of business due to damaged reputation and the need for significant investments in cybersecurity measures post-incident. While we have experienced cybersecurity incidents, to date, we are not aware that we have experienced a material cybersecurity incident during 2023. The sophistication of cybersecurity threats, including through the use of artificial intelligence, continues to increase, and the controls and preventative actions we take to reduce the risk of cybersecurity incidents and protect our systems, including the regular testing of our cybersecurity incident response plan, may be insufficient. In addition, to the extent we use new technology that could result in greater operational efficiency such as artificial intelligence, we may further expose our computer systems to the risk of cybersecurity incidents. Governance As part of our overall risk management approach, we prioritize the identification and management of cybersecurity risk at several levels, including Board oversight, executive commitment and employee training and awareness. Our Audit Committee, comprised of independent directors from our Board, oversees the Board’s responsibilities relating to the operational (including information technology (IT) risks, business continuity and data security) risk affairs of the Company. Our Audit Committee is informed of such risks through quarterly reports from our group Chief Information Security Officer (CISO). Our CISO, who has been engaged in various information security positions for over 10 years and is certified as CISO since 2014 oversees the implementation and compliance of our information security standards and mitigation of information security related risks. We also have a management level committee and a cybersecurity incident team who support our processes to assess and manage cybersecurity risk as follows: ● The information security committee, co-chaired by the CISO and our CEO, brings together IT, legal and other function leads. The information security provides a forum for these cross-functional members of management to consider emerging cybersecurity risks; review, approve, and update policies and standards as appropriate; and promote cross-functional collaboration to manage cybersecurity and privacy risks across the enterprise. ● The cybersecurity incident team includes our CISO, CIO and other members of the IT department, is alerted as appropriate to cybersecurity incidents, natural disasters and business outages and involves executives of the Company, such as the General Counsel and senior management as needed. Our CISO summarizes the information pertaining to information security committee’s activities as appropriate and reports to the Audit Committee. At the employee level, we maintain an experienced information technology team who are tasked with implementing our privacy and cybersecurity program and support the CISO in carrying out reporting, security and mitigation functions. We also hold employee trainings on privacy and cybersecurity, records and information management, conduct phishing tests and generally seek to promote awareness of cybersecurity risk through communication and education of our employee population. 97 PART III ITEM 17.

Opinion on the Financial Statements We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Kornit Digital Ltd. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss), shareholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2023, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company at December 31, 2023 and 2022, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2023, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework) and our report dated March 28, 2024 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon. Basis for Opinion These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. Critical Audit Matter The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of the critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates. F-2 Inventory Valuation Description of the Matter The Company’s inventories totaled $67,712 thousand as of December 31, 2023. As explained in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company assesses the value of all inventories, including raw materials, finished goods and spare parts, in each reporting period. Obsolete inventory or inventory in excess of management’s estimated usage requirement is written down to its estimated net realizable value if those amounts are determined to be less than cost. Auditing management’s estimates for excess and obsolete inventory involved subjective auditor judgment because the estimates are highly judgmental and rely on a number of factors that are affected by market and economic conditions outside the Company’s control. In particular, the obsolete and excess inventory calculations are sensitive to significant assumptions, including demand for the Company’s products and expected Company sales growth. How We Addressed the Matter in Our Audit We obtained an understanding, evaluated the design, and tested the operating effectiveness of internal controls over the Company’s excess and obsolete inventory reserve process. This included management’s assessment of the assumptions and data underlying the excess and obsolete inventory valuation. Our substantive audit procedures included, among others, evaluating the significant assumptions stated above and the accuracy and completeness of the underlying data management used to value excess and obsolete inventory. We compared the on-hand inventories levels to customer historical demand and sales forecasts, considering technological changes and introduction of new products. We also assessed the historical accuracy of management’s estimates and performed sensitivity analyses over the significant assumptions to evaluate the changes in the obsolete and excess inventory estimates that would result from changes in the underlying assumptions. /s/ KOST FORER GABBAY & KASIERER A Member of EY Global We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2012. Tel-Aviv, Israel March 28, 2024 F-3 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of Kornit Digital Ltd. Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting We have audited Kornit Digital Ltd and subsidiaries’ internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework) (the COSO criteria). In our opinion, Kornit Digital Ltd and subsidiaries (the “Company”) maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023, based on the COSO criteria. We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated balance sheets of the Company as of December 31, 2023, and 2022, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss), shareholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2023, and the related notes and our report dated March 28, 2024 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon. Basis for Opinion The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures, as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. /s/ KOST FORER GABBAY & KASIERER A Member of EY Global Tel-Aviv, Israel March 28, 2024 F-4 CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEETS U.S. dollars in thousands ASSETS Current Assets Cash and cash equivalents Short-term bank deposits Marketable securities Trade receivables, net of allowances of $5,227 and $738, respectively Inventories, net Prepaid expenses and other current assets Total current Assets Non-current Assets Marketable securities Property, plant and equipment, net Operating lease right-of-use assets Intangible assets, net Goodwill Deposits and other long-term assets Severance pay fund Total non-current Assets Total Assets The accompanying notes are an integral part of the consolidated financial statements.

AND SUBSIDIARIES a. Kornit Digital Ltd. (the “Company”) was incorporated in 2002 under the laws of the State of Israel. The Company and its subsidiaries develop, design and market digital printing solutions for the global printed textile industry. The Company’s and its subsidiaries’ solutions are based on their proprietary digital textile printing systems, ink and other consumables, associated software and value-added services. b. The Company established wholly owned subsidiaries in Israel, the United States, Germany, Hong Kong, the United Kingdom and Japan. The Company’s subsidiaries are engaged primarily in services, sales, and marketing, except for the Israeli subsidiary which is engaged primarily in research and development. c. The Company depends on five major suppliers to supply certain components for the production of its products. If one of these suppliers fails to deliver or delays the delivery of the necessary components, the Company will be required to seek alternative sources of supply. A change in these suppliers could result in manufacturing delays, which could cause a possible loss of sales and, consequently, could adversely affect the Company’s results of operations and financial position. F-12 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS U.S. dollars in thousands, except share and per share data NOTE 2:- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES KORNIT DIGITAL LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). a. Use of estimates: The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. The Company’s management believes that the estimates, judgments and assumptions used are reasonable based upon information available at the time they are made. Actual results could differ from those estimates. On an ongoing basis, the Company’s management evaluates estimates, including those related to intangible assets and goodwill, tax assets and liabilities, fair values of stock-based awards, inventory provisions, warranty provision, allowance for credit loss and provision for rebates and returns. Such estimates are based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable. The results of the assessment form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. b. Financial statements in United States dollars: Most of the revenues of the Company and its subsidiaries are denominated in U.S. dollars. The U.S. dollar is the primary currency of the economic environment in which the Company and its subsidiaries operate. Thus, the functional and reporting currency of the Company and its subsidiaries is the U.S. dollar. Accordingly, monetary accounts maintained in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are re-measured into U.S. dollars in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) No. 830 “Foreign Currency Matters”. Changes in currency exchange rates between the Company’s functional currency and the currency in which a transaction is denominated are included in the Company’s statements of operations as financial income, net in the period in which the currency exchange rates change. c. Principles of consolidation: The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. Intercompany balances and transactions, including profits from intercompany sales, have been eliminated upon consolidation. d. Cash equivalents: Cash equivalents are short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to cash with original maturities of three months or less, at acquisition. e. Short-term bank deposits: Short-term bank deposits are deposits with an original maturity of more than three months but less than one year from the date of acquisition. F-13 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS U.S. dollars in thousands, except share and per share data NOTE 2:- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.) f. Marketable securities: KORNIT DIGITAL LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES The Company accounts for investments in marketable securities in accordance with ASC 320, “Investments - Debt Securities”. Management determines the appropriate classification of its investments at the time of purchase and re-evaluates such determinations at each balance sheet date. The Company classifies its marketable securities as either short-term or long-term based on each instrument’s underlying contractual maturity date and the entity’s expectations of sales and redemptions in the following year. The Company classifies all of its marketable securities as available-for-sale. Available-for-sale securities are carried at fair value, with the unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, reported in “accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)” in shareholders’ equity. Realized gains and losses on sales of marketable securities are included in financial income, net and are derived using the specific identification method for determining the cost of securities. The amortized cost of marketable securities is adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount to maturity, both of which, together with interest, are included in financial income, net. At each reporting period, the Company evaluates whether declines in fair value below amortized cost are due to expected credit losses, as well as the Company’s ability and intent to hold the investment until a forecasted recovery occurs in accordance with ASC 326, Financial Instrument- Credit losses. Allowance for credit losses on available-for-sale marketable securities are recognized in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations, and any remaining unrealized losses, net of taxes, are included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in shareholders’ equity. The Company did not recognize an allowance for credit losses on marketable securities for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021. During 2023 the Company recorded an allowance for credit losses on available-for-sale marketable securities of $93 which was recognized in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.

Inventories: Inventories are measured at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The cost of inventories comprises cost of purchases and costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Inventory write-off is measured as the difference between the cost of the inventory and net realizable value and is charged to cost of sales. Cost of inventories is determined as follows: Raw materials and components - on a first-in, first-out cost basis. Finished goods - materials, on a first-in, first-out cost basis and other direct manufacturing costs. Inventory provisions have been provided to cover risks arising from slow-moving items, technological obsolescence and excess inventories according to revenue forecasts. During the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, the Company recorded inventory provisions and write-offs in a total amount of $22,001, $11,445 and $4,909, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2023, a part of inventory write-offs and provisions of $11,009 was recorded as a result of the Company’s restructuring (see Note 2ac). h. Property, plant and equipment: Property, plant and equipment are measured at cost, including directly attributable costs, less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the useful life of the assets at annual rates as follows: Office furniture and equipment Computer and peripheral equipment Machinery and equipment Leasehold improvements Building and land % 7 - 20 33 7 - 33 (*) (**) (*) Leasehold improvements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term (including the extension option held by the Company and intended to be exercised) and the expected life of the improvement. (**) Building and land consist of land and an ink manufacturing plant. In September 2018, the Company purchased the land which includes long-term leasehold rights, with a lease term of 49 years, which may be renewed for an additional 49 years. The manufacturing plant useful life is 25 years. F-15 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS U.S. dollars in thousands, except share and per share data NOTE 2:- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.) i. Leases: KORNIT DIGITAL LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Contracts containing a lease are further evaluated for classification as an operating or finance lease. In determining the lease’s classification the Company assesses among other criteria: (i) if 75% or more of the remaining economic life of the underlying asset is a major part of the remaining economic life of that underlying asset; and (ii) if 90% or more of the fair value of the underlying asset comprises substantially all of the fair value of the underlying asset. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, current operating lease liabilities and non-current operating lease liabilities in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. ROU assets represent the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. For leases with terms greater than 12 months, the Company records the ROU asset and liability at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments according to their term. The Company also elected the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components for its leases. The Company uses incremental borrowing rates based on the estimated rate of interest for collateralized borrowing over a similar term of the lease payments at commencement date. Lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Lease expenses are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term or the useful life of the leased asset. In addition, the carrying amount of the ROU and lease liabilities are remeasured if there is a modification, a change in the lease term, a change in the in-substance fixed lease payments or a change in the assessment to purchase the underlying asset. j. Business combinations: The Company accounts for business combinations in accordance with ASC No. 805, “Business Combinations” (“ASC No. 805”). ASC No. 805 requires recognition of assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and any non-controlling interest at the acquisition date, measured at their fair values as of that date. The excess of the fair value of the purchase price over the fair values of the identifiable assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill. Such valuations require management to make significant estimates and assumptions, especially with respect to intangible assets. Acquisition related costs are expensed in the statement of operations in the period incurred. k. Goodwill: Goodwill reflects the excess of the purchase price of a business acquired over the fair value of net assets acquired. Under ASC No. 350, “Intangibles – Goodwill and other” (“ASC No. 350”), goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment at least annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired. The Company has elected to perform an annual impairment test of goodwill as of December 31 of each year, or more frequently if impairment indicators are present. F-16 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS U.S. dollars in thousands, except share and per share data NOTE 2:- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.) KORNIT DIGITAL LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES The Company operates in one operating segment and this segment comprises the Company’s sole reporting unit. ASC 350 allows an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform the quantitative goodwill impairment test. If the qualitative assessment does not result in a more likely than not indication of impairment, no further impairment testing is required. If an entity elects not to use this option, or if an entity determines that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, then the entity prepares a quantitative analysis to determine whether the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value. If the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value, the entity recognizes an impairment of goodwill for the amount of this excess. During the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, no impairment of goodwill was recorded. l. Intangible assets: Acquired identifiable finite-lived intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis or accelerated method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The basis of amortization approximates the pattern in which the assets are utilized, over their estimated useful lives. The Company routinely reviews the remaining estimated useful lives of finite-lived intangible assets. In case the Company reduces the estimated useful life for any asset, the remaining unamortized balance is amortized or depreciated over the revised estimated useful life. m. Impairment of long-lived assets: Property, plant and equipment and intangible assets subject to amortization are reviewed for impairment in accordance with ASC No. 360, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the assets to the future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the assets. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. During the years ended December 31, 2022, and 2021, no impairment of long-lived assets and finite-lived intangible assets was recorded. For the year ended December 31, 2023, an impairment loss of $1,118, related to operating lease right-of-use assets was recorded as a result of the Company’s restructuring (see Note 2ac). F-17 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS U.S. dollars in thousands, except share and per share data NOTE 2:- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.) n. Revenue recognition: KORNIT DIGITAL LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES The Company generates revenues from sales of systems, consumables and services, including software subscriptions and transaction- based revenues. The Company sells its products directly to end-users and indirectly through independent distributors, all of whom are considered end-users. The Company recognizes revenues in accordance with ASC No. 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”. As such, the Company recognizes revenue under the core principle that transfer of control to the Company’s customers should be depicted in an amount reflecting the consideration the Company expects to receive in revenue. Therefore, the Company identifies a contract with a customer, identifies the performance obligations in the contract, determines the transaction price, allocates the transaction price to each performance obligation in the contract and recognizes revenues when, or as, the Company satisfies a performance obligation. Revenues from products, which consist of systems and consumables, are recognized at the point in time when control has transferred, in accordance with the agreed-upon delivery terms. Revenues from services are derived mainly from the sale of print heads, spare parts, upgrade kits, service contracts and software subscriptions. The Company’s revenues from print heads, spare parts and upgrade kits revenues (collectively “Spare parts”) are recognized at the point in time when control has transferred, contracts and software subscriptions are recognized over time, on a straight-line basis, over the period of the service. For multiple performance obligations arrangements, such as selling a system with service contract, installation and training, the Company accounts for each performance obligation separately as it is distinct. The transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation on a relative standalone selling price (“SSP”) basis and revenue is recognized for each performance obligation when control has passed, or service has been rendered. In most cases, the Company can establish SSP based on the observable prices of services sold separately in comparable circumstances to similar customers and for products based on the Company’s best estimates of the price at which the Company would have sold the product regularly on a stand-alone basis. The Company reassesses the SSP on a periodic basis or when facts and circumstances change. The Company does not account for training and installation as a separate performance obligation due to its immateriality in the context of its contracts. Accordingly, revenues from training and installation are recognized upon the delivery of its systems. F-18 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS U.S. dollars in thousands, except share and per share data NOTE 2:- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.) KORNIT DIGITAL LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES The Company periodically provides customer incentive programs in the form of product discounts, volume-based rebates and warrants (see also note 11f), which are accounted for as a variable consideration that are deducted from revenue in the period in which the revenue is recognized. These reductions to revenue are made based upon estimates that are determined according to historical experience and the specific terms and conditions of the incentive. The Company maintains a provision for returns which is estimated, primarily based on historical experience as well as management judgment, and is recorded as a reduction of revenue. Such provision amounted to $1,166 and $1,084 as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and is included under accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. Contract liabilities include amounts received from customers for which revenue has not yet been recognized. Contract liabilities amounted to $2,218 and $5,941 as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and are presented under deferred revenues and customers advances and other non-current liabilities. During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company recognized revenues in amount of $5,701, which have been included in the contract liabilities balance on January 1, 2023. In cases where the Company’s customers trade-in old systems as part of a sale of new systems, the fair value of the old systems is recorded as inventory, provided that such value can be recoverable. Revenue disaggregated by revenue source consists of the following: Systems Ink and consumables Service - spare parts Service contracts and software subscriptions Total revenue F-19 Year Ended December 31, 2022 2023 2021 $ $ 48,998 $ 112,047 36,855 21,886 219,786 $ 119,073 $ 103,429 28,619 20,397 271,518 $ 181,445 101,192 21,936 17,433 322,006 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS U.S. dollars in thousands, except share and per share data NOTE 2:- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.)

Remaining performance obligations represent contracted revenues that have not yet been recognized, and which includes deferred revenues and non-cancelable contracts that will be invoiced and recognized as revenue in future periods. The Company elected to apply the optional exemption under paragraph ASC 606-10-50-14(a) not to disclose the remaining performance obligations that relate to contracts with an original expected duration of one year or less for which deferred revenues have not been recorded yet. The following table represents the remaining performance obligations as of December 31, 2023, which are expected to be satisfied and recognized in future periods: 2024 2025 2026 and thereafter Service contracts and software subscriptions $ 2,885 $ 97 $ 18 The Company has elected to apply the practical expedient for financing component for transactions in which the difference between the payment date and the revenue recognition timing is up to 12 months. Payment terms between the Company and its payors are typically up to twelve months, and vary by the type of payer, country of sale and the products or services offered. o. Shipping and Handling: Shipping and handling fees charged to the Company’s customers are recognized as revenue in the period shipped and the related costs for providing these services are recorded as a cost of revenue. F-20 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS U.S. dollars in thousands, except share and per share data NOTE 2:- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.) p. Cost of revenues: KORNIT DIGITAL LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES Cost of revenues is comprised mainly of cost of systems and parts, ink production, employees’ salaries and related costs, allocated overhead expenses, import taxes, inventory write-offs, royalties and shipping and handling fees. q. Warranty costs: The Company typically provides assurance type standard warranty for six months on its systems including parts and labor. A provision is recorded for estimated warranty costs at the time revenues are recognized based on historical warranty costs and management’s estimates. Factors that affect the Company’s warranty liability include the number of systems, historical rates of warranty claims and cost per claim. The Company periodically assesses the adequacy of its recorded warranty liabilities and adjusts the amounts thereof as necessary. The following are the changes in the liability for product warranty from January 1, 2022 to December 31, 2023: Balance at January 1, 2022 Additions and adjustments to cost of revenues Reduction for payments and costs to satisfy claims Balance at December 31, 2022 Additions and adjustments to cost of revenues Reduction for payments and costs to satisfy claims Balance at December 31, 2023 r.

Internal use software: The Company capitalizes qualifying costs incurred during the application development stage related to software developed for internal use. These costs are capitalized based on the qualifying criteria. Such costs are amortized over the software’s estimated life of three years. Costs incurred to develop software applications consist of (a) certain external direct costs of materials and services incurred in developing or obtaining internal-use computer software, and (b) payroll and payroll-related costs for employees who are directly associated with, and who devote time to, the development or implementation of the software. Capitalized internal-use software costs are included in intangibles assets, net in the consolidated balance sheet.

Implementation costs incurred in cloud computing arrangement that is a service contract: The Company’s cloud computing arrangement (“CCA”) that is a service contract consists of an arrangement with third party vendors for internal use of their software applications that they host. The Company defers implementation costs incurred in relation to that arrangement, including costs for software application coding, configuration, integration and customization, while associated process reengineering, training, maintenance and data conversion costs are expensed. The short-term portion of deferred costs are included in prepaid expenses and other current assets in the consolidated balance sheets, while the long-term portion of deferred costs are included in other non-current assets. Amortized implementation costs incurred in CCA that are service contracts will be recognized using the straight-line method over eight years, which represents the noncancellable terms of the CCA, plus any optional renewal periods that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise. Deferred implementation costs are subject to assessment for potential impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying values may not be recoverable. Deferred implementation costs incurred in CCA that is a service contract amounted to $7,424 as of December 31, 2023. Amortization of the implementation costs incurred in a CCA that is a service contract that commenced on January 1, 2023 amounted to $848.

Accounting for share-based compensation: KORNIT DIGITAL LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES The Company accounts for share-based compensation in accordance with ASC No. 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation” (“ASC No. 718”) that requires companies to estimate the fair value of equity-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The value of the award is recognized as an expense over the requisite service periods in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations. The Company selected the binomial option pricing model as the most appropriate fair value method for its stock options awards with the following assumptions for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021: Year ended December 31, 2022 2023 2021 Suboptimal exercise multiple Risk free interest rate Volatility Dividend yield 2.8 2.8 4.26%-4.30% 3.02%-4.09% 0.09%-1.36% 57.75%-60.75% 58.67%-69.13% 42.57%-58.49% 0% 0% 0% 2.5 The expected volatility is derived from the volatility of the Company’s share price based upon actual historical stock price movements. The computation of the suboptimal exercise multiple is derived from empirical studies, based on those studies, the early exercise factor of public companies is approximately 150% for managers and 100% for other employees. The interest rate for the period within the contractual life of the award is based on the U.S. Treasury Bills yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The Company currently has no plans to distribute dividends and intends to retain future earnings to finance the development of its business. The fair value of each restricted stock unit (“RSU”) including performance based RSUs (“PSU”) is the market value of a single ordinary share of the Company, as determined based on the closing price of the Company’s ordinary shares on the date immediately prior to the day of grant. The Company recognizes compensation expenses for the value of its awards, which have graded vesting based on service conditions, using the straight-line method, over the requisite service period of each of the awards. The Company recognizes forfeitures of awards as they occur. F-23 KORNIT DIGITAL LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS U.S. dollars in thousands, except share and per share data NOTE 2:- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.) v. Derivatives and hedging: The Company follows ASC No. 815, “Derivatives and Hedging” which requires companies to recognize all of their derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheets at fair value. Accounting for changes in 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 transaction and further, on the type of hedging transaction. For those derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as hedging instruments, a company must designate the hedging instrument, based upon the exposure being hedged, as a fair value hedge, cash flow hedge, or a hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation. Due to the Company’s global operations, it is exposed to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations in the normal course of its business. The Company uses derivative financial instruments, specifically foreign currency forward and option contracts, to manage exposure to foreign currency risks, by hedging a portion of the Company’s forecasted payroll and related expenses denominated in New Israeli Shekels that it expects to incur within a year. The effect of exchange rate changes on foreign currency hedging contracts is expected to partially offset the effect of exchange rate changes on the underlying hedged item. For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as a cash flow hedge (i.e., hedging the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows that is attributable to a particular risk), the gain or loss on the derivative instrument is reported as a component of other comprehensive income (loss) and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Gains or losses from contracts that were not designated as hedging instruments are recognized in “financial income, net”. The Company measured the fair value of these contracts in accordance with ASC No. 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC No. 820”), and they were classified as level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. 1. Derivative instruments notional amounts: The following table summarizes the notional amounts for hedged items: Designated cash flow hedges Non-designated hedges F-24 December 31, 2023 2022 $ $ 12,284 $ - 12,284 $ 38,465 491 38,956 KORNIT DIGITAL LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS U.S. dollars in thousands, except share and per share data NOTE 2:- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.) 2. Derivative instrument outstanding: As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the fair value of the Company’s outstanding forward and option contracts amounted to $595 and $1,000 which are included within “Prepaid expenses and other current assets” and “accrued expenses and other current liabilities”, respectively, on the balance sheets. 3. Derivative instrument gains and losses The following table sets forth the expense (income) from derivatives instruments included in the consolidated statements of operations and reclassified from other comprehensive income: Cost of revenues Research and development Sales and marketing General and administrative Year ended December 31, 2022 2023 2021 $ 814 $ 1,144 368 548 674 $ 1,029 365 481 (33) (48) (21) (31) The Company’s outstanding derivatives designated as cash flow hedging instruments and their related gains and losses, are reported in the statement of cash flows as cash flows from operating activities. The maximum length of time over which the Company hedges its exposure to the variability in future cash flows for forecasted transactions is less than 12 months. w. Income taxes: The Company accounts for income taxes and uncertain tax positions in accordance with ASC No. 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC No. 740”). ASC No. 740 prescribes the use of the liability method, whereby deferred tax asset and liability account balances are determined based on temporary differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company provides a valuation allowance, if necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to amounts more likely than not to be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-current assets and liabilities, respectively. F-25 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS U.S. dollars in thousands, except share and per share data NOTE 2:- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.) KORNIT DIGITAL LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES ASC No. 740 contains a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring a liability for uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates that it is more likely than not that, on an evaluation of the technical merits, the tax position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount that is more than 50% likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company accrues interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits on its taxes on income. x. Concentrations of credit risks: Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company and its subsidiaries to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, bank deposits, marketable securities, foreign exchange contracts and trade receivables. The majority of the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ cash and cash equivalents, bank deposits and marketable securities are invested in major banks in Israel and the U.S. Generally, these cash equivalents may be redeemed upon demand and, therefore management believes that they bear a lower risk. The Company attempts to limit its exposure to interest rate risk by investing in securities with maturities of less than four years; however, the Company may be unable to successfully limit its risk to interest rate fluctuations. At any time, a sharp rise in interest rates could have a material adverse impact on the fair value of its investment portfolio. Conversely, declines in interest rates could have a material favorable impact on the fair value of its investment portfolio. Increases or decreases in interest rates could have a material impact on interest earnings related to new investments during the period. The trade receivables of the Company and its subsidiaries are mainly derived from sales to customers located in the United States, Europe, Asia Pacific and Latin America. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers. In certain circumstances, the Company may require letters of credit from its customers, other collaterals or additional guarantees. The allowance for credit loss is based on the Company’s assessment of historical collection experience, customer creditworthiness, and current and future economic and market conditions. The Company regularly reviews the adequacy of the allowance for credit loss based on a combination of factors, including an assessment of the current customer’s aging balance, the nature and size of the customer and the financial status of the customer. Accounts receivable deemed uncollectable are charged against the allowance for credit loss when identified. Doubtful debt expense is included in Sales and Marketing in the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss). The allowance for credit loss as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, amounted to $5,227 and $738, respectively. The change in 2023 current period provision allowance for credit loss amounted to $5,152, which was offset by a write-off amount of $663. y. Transfers of financial assets: ASC 860 “Transfers and Servicing”, (“ASC 860”), establishes a standard for determining when a transfer of financial assets should be accounted for as a sale. The Company’s arrangements are such that the underlying conditions are met for the transfer of financial assets to qualify for accounting as a sale. The transfers of financial assets are typically performed by the factoring of receivables to two financial institutions. F-26 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS U.S. dollars in thousands, except share and per share data NOTE 2:- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.) KORNIT DIGITAL LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES For the year ended December 31, 2023, and 2022, the Company sold trade receivables to financial institutions in a total net amount of $2,262 and $616, respectively. Control and risk of those trade receivables were fully transferred in accordance with ASC 860. During the year ended December 31, 2023, and 2022, the Company recorded an aggregate amount of $356 and $41, respectively, as financial expenses related to its factoring arrangements. z. Severance pay: The Company’s employees in Israel have subscribed to Section 14 of Israel’s Severance Pay Law, 5723-1963 (“Section 14”). Pursuant to Section 14, the Company’s employees, covered by this section, are entitled only to monthly deposits, at a rate of 8.33% of their monthly salary, made on their behalf by the Company. Payments in accordance with Section 14 release the Company from any future severance liabilities in respect of those employees. Neither severance pay liability nor severance pay fund under Section 14 for such employees is recorded on the Company’s balance sheet. With regards to employees in Israel that are not subject to Section 14, the Company’s liability for severance pay is calculated pursuant to the Severance Pay Law, based on the most recent salary of the relevant employees multiplied by the number of years of employment as of the balance sheet date. These employees are entitled to one-month’s salary for each year of employment or a portion thereof. The Company’s liability for these employees is fully provided for via monthly deposits with severance pay funds, insurance policies and an accrual. The value of these deposits is recorded as an asset on the Company’s balance sheet. The deposited funds include profits accumulated up to the balance sheet date. The deposited funds may be withdrawn only upon the fulfillment of the obligation pursuant to the Severance Pay Law or labor agreements. Severance expenses for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021 were $3,144, $3,554 and $2,895, respectively. aa. Fair value of financial instruments: The Company applies ASC No. 820. Under this standard, fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e., the “exit price”) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In determining fair value, the Company uses various valuation approaches. ASC No. 820 establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the Company’s assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. F-27 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS U.S. dollars in thousands, except share and per share data NOTE 2:- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.) KORNIT DIGITAL LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES The hierarchy is broken down into three levels based on the inputs as follows: Level 1 - Valuations based on quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company can access at the measurement date. Level 2 - Valuations based on one or more quoted prices in markets that are not active or for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly. Level 3 - Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. The fair value hierarchy also requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The carrying amount of cash, cash equivalents, short term bank deposits, trade receivables, prepaid expenses and other current assets, trade payables and accrued expenses and other current liabilities approximates their fair value due to the short-term maturities of such instruments. The Company measures its marketable securities and foreign currency derivative instruments at fair value. Marketable securities and foreign currency derivative instruments are classified within Level 2 as the valuation inputs are based on quoted prices and market observable data of similar instruments. ab. Basic and diluted earnings (losses) per share: Basic earnings No. 260, “Earnings Per Share” is computed based on the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per share is computed based on the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during each period, plus dilutive potential ordinary shares considered outstanding during the period, in accordance with the relevant ASC. For the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, all outstanding options and RSU’s of 2,306,577 and 1,718,661, respectively, have been excluded from the calculation of the diluted earnings per share since their effect was anti-dilutive. The total number of shares related to the outstanding options and RSU’s excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings (losses) per share due to their anti-dilutive effect was 5,005 for the year ended December 31, 2021.

AND SUBSIDIARIES During 2023, the Company decided upon a cost savings initiative which resulted in a $19,375 restructuring charge. Included in this restructuring is a workforce reduction, a consolidation of facilities and a phasing out of legacy platforms. During 2022, the Company announced a workforce reduction of approximately 10%. As a result, the Company recorded severance and other personnel related expenses for the impacted employees, in addition to other related expenses. The Company substantially completed these actions by the end of 2022.

AND SUBSIDIARIES On April 5, 2022, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary Kornit Digital Technologies, acquired all of the outstanding shares of Tesoma GmbH, a German manufacturer of continuous dryers and oven systems. Under the related acquisition agreement, the total consideration was $15,443. In addition, the Company incurred acquisition-related costs in a total amount of $512. Acquisition-related costs include legal, accounting, consulting fees and other external costs directly related to the acquisition. These transaction costs were included in general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. Tesoma generates revenues from several markets, including textile, mechanical engineering and automotive. The Company believes this acquisition will accelerate its value proposition for fulfillers in the area of dryers for the textile industry. The Tesoma acquisition was accounted for as a business combination in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805 “Business Combinations”. ASC 805 requires recognition of assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and any non-controlling interest at the acquisition date, measured at their fair values as of that date. The excess of the fair value of the purchase price over the fair values of the identifiable assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill. Such valuations require management to make significant estimates and assumptions, especially with respect to intangible assets. Acquisition related costs are expensed to the statement of operations in the period incurred. The following table summarizes the purchase price allocation of Tesoma acquisition: Tangible assets (liabilities): Cash Accounts receivable and other receivables Inventory Property and equipment Other assets Advances from customers Trade payables Provisions and other liabilities Deferred tax liabilities, net Net assets Intangible assets: Customer Relationship Technology Backlog Goodwill Total purchase price F-31 Fair value Amortization period (years) $ $ 789 1,672 3,991 6,194 343 (1,726) (466) (717) (855) 9,225 1,213 856 432 3,717 15,443 5.8 2.4 0.5 Infinite KORNIT DIGITAL LTD.

During February 2023, two securities class action complaints were filed by certain shareholders of the Company in U.S. federal court in New Jersey against the Company, certain of the Company’s current and former officers and directors, the underwriters of the November 19, 2021 follow-on public offering and Amazon (which sold shares in that public offering), as defendants. The complaints assert claims under certain sections of the Exchange Act and seeks unspecified damages. On August 30, 2023, the U.S. federal court in New Jersey granted an unopposed motion to consolidate the two actions, to appoint certain plaintiffs as lead plaintiffs, and to appoint a lead counsel. On October 27, 2023, the lead plaintiffs filed a consolidated complaint, alleging that, between February 2021 and July 2022, the Company made misrepresentations and omissions in its public statements and disclosures in violation of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder. On December 21, 2023, the defendants moved to dismiss the consolidated complaint. The lead plaintiffs filed an opposition to Defendants’ motion to dismiss on February 16, 2024. Pursuant to a schedule stipulated between the parties and ordered by the Court, Defendants will file their reply in further support of their motion to dismiss no later than April 1, 2024. The Company believes these lawsuits are without merit and has been defending against these cases vigorously. As of the date hereof, the Company is unable to estimate a range of loss, if any, that could result were there to be adverse final decisions in these cases, and estimated liabilities have not been recorded in the consolidated financial statements.

AND SUBSIDIARIES Taxable income of the Company and its Israeli subsidiary is subject to Israeli corporate tax at the rate of 23%. The Company and its Israeli subsidiary are also eligible for tax benefits as further described in note 15b. b. Tax benefits under the Law for the Encouragement of Capital Investments, 1959 (the “Law”): The Company’s production facilities in Israel have been granted “Beneficiary Enterprise” status under the Law. The Company and its Israeli subsidiary have been granted benefits under the “Alternative Benefit Track” under which the main benefits are a tax exemption for undistributed income and a reduced tax rate. The Company and its Israeli subsidiary began to utilize such tax benefits in 2010. The entitlement to the above benefits was limited to the end of 2019, and was conditional upon the Company and its Israeli subsidiary fulfilling the conditions stipulated by the Law and related regulations. In the event of failure to comply with these conditions, the benefits may be partially or fully canceled and the Company or its Israeli subsidiary may be required to refund the amount of the benefits, in whole or in part, plus a consumer price index linkage adjustment and interest. In the event of distribution of any dividends, the amount distributed which is allocated to the above-mentioned tax-exempt income, on a prorate basis, will be subject to the same reduced corporate tax rate that would have been applied to the Beneficiary Enterprise’s income. In addition, tax-exempt income attributed to the Beneficiary Enterprise will subject the Company to taxes upon distribution in any manner including complete liquidation. On November 15, 2021, a new amendment of the Law was enacted harshening the rules with respect to determining the profits from which a dividend was distributed and providing that part of any dividend distribution will be deemed as distributed from the Trapped Profits, according to a certain formula. The Israeli government agreed to grant relief of 30%-60% on the amount of tax which should have been paid on distributable earnings in order to encourage companies to pay the reduced taxes during the next 12 months (the “Temporary Order”). The Temporary Order provides partial relief from Israeli corporate income tax for companies which opt to enjoy the privilege, on a linear basis: greater release of “trapped” earnings will result in a higher relief from corporate income tax. According to the new linear statutory formula, the corporate income tax to be paid, would vary from 6% to 17.5% effective tax rate (depends on the company’s corporate tax rate in the year in which the income was derived and the amount of “trapped” retained earnings elected to be relieved), without taking into account the 20% dividend withholding tax (which should be levied only upon actual distribution, if any). The reduced corporate tax is payable within 30 days of making the election. The new Temporary Order does not require the actual distribution of the retained earnings, nor does it provide any relief from the 20% dividend withholding tax. F-43 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS U.S. dollars in thousands, except share and per share data NOTE 15:- TAXES ON INCOME (Cont.) KORNIT DIGITAL LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES The partial corporate income tax relief was available to companies that elected to implement the temporary reduced tax relief by November 15, 2022 in respect of its exempt retained earnings, provided that up to 30% (the exact rate is calculated by a new statutory formula) of the “released” earnings are re-invested in Israel in at least one of the following: Industrial activities, Research and development activities, Assets used by the company, salaries of newly recruited employees, for a period of up to 5 years. During November 2022, the Company applied the Temporary Order to its exempt profits accrued prior to 2022 by the Company and its Israeli subsidiary. Consequently, the Company paid $11,485 corporate tax on exempt income of $133,751. The Company’s Israeli subsidiary elected to apply the Preferred Enterprise regime under the January 2011 amendment to the Law as of the 2013 tax year. The election is irrevocable. Under the Preferred Enterprise regime, a preferred income of an Enterprise located in the center of Israel is subject to the tax rate of 16%. The 2017 Amendment provides that a technology company satisfying certain conditions will qualify as a Preferred Technology Enterprise and will thereby enjoy a reduced corporate tax rate of 12% on income that qualifies as “Preferred Technology Income”, as defined in the Law. The tax rate is further reduced to 7.5% for a Preferred Technology Enterprise located in development zone A. These corporate tax rates shall apply only with respect to the portion of the Preferred Technology Income derived from R&D developed in Israel. In addition, a Preferred Technology Company will enjoy a reduced corporate tax rate of 12% on capital gain derived from the sale of certain “Benefitted Intangible Assets” (as defined in the Law) to a related foreign company if the Benefitted Intangible Assets were acquired from a foreign company on or after January 1, 2017 for at least NIS 200 million, and the sale receives prior approval from the National Authority for Technological Authority (previously known as the Israeli Office of the Chief Scientist), referred to as the Innovation Authority. Dividends distributed by a Preferred Technology Enterprise, paid out of Preferred Technology Income, are generally subject to withholding tax at source at the rate of 20% or such lower rate as may be provided in an applicable tax treaty (subject to the receipt in advance of a valid certificate from the Israel Tax Authority allowing for a reduced tax rate). However, if such dividends are paid to an Israeli company, no tax is required to be withheld (although, if such dividends are subsequently distributed from such Israeli company to individuals or a non-Israeli company, withholding tax at a rate of 20% or such lower rate as may be provided in an applicable tax treaty will apply).

AND SUBSIDIARIES The Company and its Israeli subsidiary believe they meet the conditions for “Preferred Technological Enterprises”, and are subject to a tax rate of 12% on income that qualifies as “Preferred Technology Income”, as defined in the Law. The tax rate for a Preferred Technological Enterprises located in development zone A is 7.5%. From time to time, the Israeli Government discusses reducing the benefits available to companies under the Law. The termination or substantial reduction of any of the benefits available under the Law could materially increase the Company’s tax liabilities. c. Tax benefits under the Israeli Law for the Encouragement of Industry (Taxation), 1969: Each of the Company and its Israeli subsidiary is an “Industrial Company” as defined by the Israeli Law for the Encouragement of Industry (Taxation), 1969, and, as such, is entitled to certain tax benefits including accelerated depreciation, deduction of public offering expenses in three equal annual installments and amortization of other intangible property rights for tax purposes. In addition, these Israeli companies are eligible to submit consolidated tax returns, allowing the offsetting of losses between the entities. d. Income taxes of non-Israeli subsidiaries: The Company’s non-Israeli subsidiaries are taxed according to the tax laws in their respective countries of residence. Taxes were not provided for undistributed earnings of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries. The Company’s board of directors has determined that the Company does not currently intend to distribute any amounts of its undistributed earnings as a dividend. The Company intends to reinvest these earnings indefinitely in the foreign subsidiaries. Accordingly, no deferred income taxes have been provided. If these earnings were distributed into Israel in the form of dividends or otherwise, the Company would be subject to additional Israeli income taxes (subject to an adjustment for foreign tax credits) and foreign withholding taxes. The amount of undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries that are considered to be reinvested as of December 31, 2023 was $25,020. If these undistributed earnings are distributed, they would be taxed at the corporate tax rate applicable to such income, and $3,741 of additional taxes would be incurred as of December 31, 2023.

(“Tritone”) On September 13, 2020, the Company entered into a sublease agreement with Tritone Technologies Ltd., whose CEO is Mr. Ofer Ben Zur, a director of the Company, and one of whose shareholders is an equity fund controlled by the Chairman of the Board, for the sublease of 192 square meters in Rosh Ha’Ayin. The term of the related lease was extended until January 30, 2023. The rent under the sublease is $2 per month, in addition to the rent for the related lease that is covered by the sublessee. The sublease agreement is carried out on a “back-to-back” basis, as the Company pays over the rent that it receives directly to its landlord.

Ordinary Shares Exhibit 2.2 The authorized share capital of Kornit Digital Ltd. (hereinafter, “we”, “us”, “our” or similar expressions) consists of NIS 2,000,000 divided into 200,000,000 ordinary shares, par value NIS 0.01 per share, or ordinary shares. As of February 14, 2024, 47,735,256 ordinary shares were issued and outstanding. Registration Number and Purposes of the Company Our registration number with the Israeli Registrar of Companies is 51-3195420. Our purpose as set forth in our articles of association, or articles, is to engage in any lawful activity. Voting Rights All ordinary shares have identical voting and other rights in all respects. Transfer of Shares Our fully paid ordinary shares are issued in registered form and may be freely transferred under our articles, unless the transfer is restricted or prohibited by another instrument, applicable law or the rules of a stock exchange on which the shares are listed for trade. The ownership or voting of our ordinary shares by non-residents of Israel is not restricted in any way by our articles or the laws of the State of Israel, except for ownership by nationals of some countries that are, or have been, in a state of war with Israel. Election of Directors Our ordinary shares do not have cumulative voting rights for the election of directors. As a result, the holders of a majority of the voting power represented at a shareholders meeting have the power to elect all of our directors, subject to the special approval requirements for external directors, to the extent we are then required to elect external directors. Under our articles, our board of directors must consist of not less than five but no more than nine directors, including, when we are required, two external directors who serve pursuant to the Israeli Companies Law, 5759-1999, or the Companies Law. Pursuant to our articles, each of our directors (other than, when applicable, external directors, for whom special election requirements apply under the Companies Law), will be appointed by a simple majority vote of holders of our voting shares, participating and voting at an annual general meeting of our shareholders. In addition, our directors (other than the external directors, when applicable) are divided into three classes that are each elected at the third annual general meeting of our shareholders, in a staggered fashion (such that one class is elected each annual general meeting), and serve on our board of directors unless they are removed by a vote of 65% of the total voting power of our shareholders at a general meeting of our shareholders or upon the occurrence of certain events, in accordance with the Companies Law and our articles. In addition, our articles allow our board of directors to fill vacancies on the board of directors or to appoint new directors up to the maximum number of directors permitted under our articles. Such directors serve for a term of office equal to the remaining period of the term of office of the directors(s) whose office(s) have been vacated or in the case of new directors, for a term of office according to the class to which such director was assigned upon appointment. We are not currently required to have external directors serving on our board of directors, based on an exemption for Israeli public companies whose shares are traded in the United States and that lack a controlling shareholder that we have elected to be governed by under the Companies Law regulations. Dividend and Liquidation Rights We may declare a dividend to be paid to the holders of our ordinary shares in proportion to their respective shareholdings. Under the Companies Law, dividend distributions are determined by the board of directors and do not require the approval of the shareholders of a company unless the company’s articles of association provide otherwise. Our articles do not require shareholder approval of a dividend distribution and provide that dividend distributions may be determined by our board of directors. Pursuant to the Companies Law, the distribution amount is limited to the greater of retained earnings or earnings generated over the previous two years, according to our then last reviewed or audited financial statements, provided that the end of the period to which the financial statements relate is not more than six months prior to the date of the distribution. If we do not meet such criteria, we may only distribute dividends with court approval. An equity repurchase is generally treated as a deemed dividend for purposes of these limitations on dividend distributions. However, for a company such as ours listed on an exchange outside of Israel, even if we lack the requisite retained earnings or earnings, we still do not need to seek court approval for an equity repurchase, provided that we notify our creditors of the proposed equity repurchase and allow such creditors an opportunity to initiate a court proceeding to review the repurchase. If within 30 days of such notification, creditors do not file an objection, we may proceed with the repurchase without obtaining court approval. In each case, we are only permitted to distribute a dividend (or effect equity repurchases) if our board of directors and the court, if applicable, determines that there is no reasonable concern that payment of the dividend (or the repurchases) will prevent us from satisfying our existing and foreseeable obligations as they become due. In the event of our liquidation, after satisfaction of liabilities to creditors, our assets will be distributed to the holders of our ordinary shares in proportion to their shareholdings. This right, as well as the right to receive dividends, may be affected by the grant of preferential dividend or distribution rights to the holders of a class of shares with preferential rights that may be authorized in the future. Exchange Controls There are currently no Israeli currency control restrictions on remittances of dividends on our ordinary shares, proceeds from the sale of the shares or interest or other payments to non-residents of Israel, except for shareholders who are subjects of countries that are, or have been, in a state of war with Israel. Shareholder Meetings Under Israeli law, we are required to hold an annual general meeting of our shareholders once every calendar year that must be held no later than 15 months after the date of the previous annual general meeting. All meetings other than the annual general meeting of shareholders are referred to in our articles as special general meetings. Our board of directors may call special general meetings whenever it sees fit, at such time and place, within or outside of Israel, as it may determine. In addition, the Companies Law provides that our board of directors is required to convene a special general meeting upon the written request of (i) any two of our directors or one-quarter of the members of our board of directors or (ii) since our company’s ordinary shares are listed on an exchange in the U.S., one or more shareholders holding, in the aggregate, either (a) 10% or more of our outstanding issued shares and 1% of our outstanding voting power or (b) 10% or more of our outstanding voting power. Subject to the provisions of the Companies Law and the regulations promulgated thereunder, shareholders entitled to participate and vote at general meetings are the shareholders of record on a date to be decided by the board of directors, which may be between four and sixty days prior to the date of the meeting. Furthermore, the Companies Law requires that resolutions regarding the following matters must be passed at a general meeting of our shareholders: ● amendments to our articles; ● appointment or termination of our auditors; ● appointment of external directors; ` ● approval of certain related party transactions; ● increases or reductions of our authorized share capital; ● a merger; and ● the exercise of our board of director’s powers by a general meeting, if our board of directors is unable to exercise its powers and the exercise of any of its powers is required for our proper management. 2 The Companies Law and our articles require that notice of any annual general meeting or special general meeting be provided to shareholders at least 21 days prior to the meeting and if the agenda of the meeting includes, among other matters, the appointment or removal of directors, the approval of transactions with office holders or interested or related parties, approval of the company’s general manager to serve as the chairman of its board of directors or an approval of a merger, notice must be provided at least 35 days prior to the meeting. The Companies Law generally allows one or more shareholders holding at least 1% of the voting power of a company to request the inclusion of an additional agenda item for an upcoming shareholders meeting, assuming that it is appropriate for debate and action at a shareholders meeting. For a company such as ours listed on an exchange outside of Israel, recently-adopted Companies Law regulations provide that a matter relating to the appointment or removal of a director may only be requested by one or more shareholders holding at least 5% of the voting rights. Our articles currently allow a shareholder holding 1% or more of our voting power to request inclusion of an agenda item, so currently we are unable to utilize the 5% threshold for a director appointment or removal request set by the Companies Law regulations. Under applicable regulations, a shareholder request regarding a shareholder meeting agenda item must be submitted within three or, for certain requested agenda items, seven days following our publication of notice of the meeting. If the requested agenda item includes the appointment of director(s), the requesting shareholder must comply with particular procedural and documentary requirements. If our board of directors determines that the requested agenda item is appropriate for consideration by our shareholders, we must publish an updated notice that includes such item within seven days following the deadline for submission of agenda items by our shareholders. The publication of the updated notice of the shareholders meeting does not impact the record date for the meeting. In lieu of this process, we may opt to provide pre-notice of our shareholders meeting at least 21 days prior to publishing official notice of the meeting. In that case, our 1% shareholders are given a 14- day period following the pre-notice in which to submit proposed agenda items, after which we would have seven days to publish notice of the meeting that includes any accepted shareholder proposals. Under the Companies Law and under our articles, shareholders are not permitted to take action by way of written consent in lieu of a meeting. Voting Rights Quorum requirements Pursuant to our articles, holders of our ordinary shares have one vote for each ordinary share held on all matters submitted to a vote before the shareholders at a general meeting. As a foreign private issuer, the quorum required for our general meetings of shareholders consists of at least two shareholders present in person, by proxy or written ballot who hold or represent between them at least 25% of the total outstanding voting rights. A meeting adjourned for lack of a quorum is generally adjourned to the same day in the following week at the same time and place or to a later time or date if so, specified in the notice of the meeting. At the reconvened meeting, any number of shareholders present in person or by proxy shall constitute a quorum, unless a meeting was called pursuant to a request by our shareholders, in which case the quorum required is one or more shareholders, present in person or by proxy and holding the number of shares required to call the meeting as described under “Shareholder Meetings.” Vote Requirements Our articles provide that all resolutions of our shareholders require a simple majority vote, unless otherwise required by the Companies Law or by our articles. Under the Companies Law, each of (i) the approval of an extraordinary transaction with a controlling shareholder and (ii) the terms of employment or other engagement of the controlling shareholder of the company or such controlling shareholder’s relative (even if such terms are not extraordinary) require the approval of the company’s audit committee (or compensation committee with respect to compensation arrangements), board of directors and shareholders, in that order. In addition, the shareholder approval must fulfill one of the following requirements: ● at least a majority of the shares held by all shareholders who do not have a personal interest in the transaction and who are present and voting at the meeting approves the transaction, excluding abstentions; or 3 ● the shares voted against the transaction by shareholders who have no personal interest in the transaction and who are present and voting at the meeting do not exceed 2% of the voting rights in the company. Additionally: (i) the approval and extension of a compensation policy and certain deviations therefrom require the approval of compensation committee, board of directors and shareholders, in that order. In addition, the shareholder approval must be by a majority vote of the shares present and voting at a meeting of shareholders called for such purpose, provided that either: (a) such majority includes at least a majority of the shares held by all shareholders who are not controlling shareholders and do not have a personal interest in such compensation policy; or (b) the total number of shares of non-controlling shareholders who do not have a personal interest in the compensation policy and who vote against the arrangement does not exceed 2% of the company’s aggregate voting rights; (ii) the terms of employment or other engagement of the chief executive officer of the company require compensation committee, board of directors and shareholders, in that order (the shareholder approval must be by a majority vote of the shares present and voting at a meeting of shareholders called for such purpose, provided that either: (a) such majority includes at least a majority of the shares held by all shareholders who are not controlling shareholders and do not have a personal interest in such compensation; or (b) the total number of shares of non-controlling shareholders who do not have a personal interest in the compensation and who vote against the arrangement does not exceed 2% of the company’s aggregate voting rights); and (iii) the chairman of a company’s board of directors also serving as its chief executive officer requires the same approval as applies to (i) and (ii) above (substituting the personal interest in the service of the chairman as chief executive officer in place of personal interest in the compensation). Under our articles, the alteration of the rights, privileges, preferences or obligations of any class of our shares requires a simple majority of all classes of shares voting together as a single class at a shareholder meeting (without a separate vote of the class that is affected). Our articles also require that the removal of any director from office (other than our external directors) or the amendment of the provisions of our articles relating to our staggered board requires the vote of 65% of the voting power of our shareholders. Another exception to the simple majority vote requirement is a resolution for the voluntary winding up, or an approval of a scheme of arrangement or reorganization, of the company pursuant to Section 350 of the Companies Law, which requires the approval of holders of 75% of the voting rights represented at the meeting, in person or by proxy and voting on the resolution. Access to Corporate Records Under the Companies Law, shareholders are provided access to: minutes of our general meetings; our shareholders register and principal shareholders register, articles of association and annual audited financial statements; and any document that we are required by law to file publicly with the Israeli Companies Registrar or the Israel Securities Authority. These documents are publicly available and may be found and inspected at the Israeli Registrar of Companies. In addition, shareholders may request to be provided with any document related to an action or transaction requiring shareholder approval under the related party transaction provisions of the Companies Law. We may deny this request if we believe it has not been made in good faith or if such denial is necessary to protect our interest or protect a trade secret or patent. Modification of Class Rights Under our articles, the rights attached to any class of share, such as voting, liquidation and dividend rights, may be amended by adoption of a resolution by the holders of a simple majority of all classes of shares voting together as a single class at a shareholder meeting (without a separate vote of the class that is affected). 4 Registration Rights Under a transaction agreement to which we are party with Amazon Corporate LLC, a subsidiary of Amazon.com, Inc., which we collectively refer to as Amazon, Amazon is entitled to certain registration rights. Under that agreement, (1) Amazon may request up to two times in any 12-month period that we file a shelf registration statement on Form F-3 or S-3 and we are required to keep the shelf registration effective for four 90-day periods, (2) if we are ineligible to file a registration statement on Form F-3 or Form S-3, Amazon may request up to four times that we file a long form registration statement to facilitate the sale of its shares, and (3) Amazon is entitled to piggyback registration rights on underwritten offerings effected by us. We are subject to customary obligations upon Amazon’s request for registration, including cooperation in case of an underwritten offering. Acquisitions under Israeli Law Full Tender Offer. A person wishing to acquire shares of an Israeli public company and who would as a result hold over 90% of the target company’s issued and outstanding share capital is required by the Companies Law to make a tender offer to all of the company’s shareholders for the purchase of all of the issued and outstanding shares of the company. A person wishing to acquire shares of a public Israeli company and who would as a result hold over 90% of the issued and outstanding share capital of a certain class of shares is required to make a tender offer to all of the shareholders who hold shares of the relevant class for the purchase of all of the issued and outstanding shares of that class. If the shareholders who do not accept the offer hold less than 5% of the issued and outstanding share capital of the company or of the applicable class, and more than half of the shareholders who do not have a personal interest in the offer accept the offer, all of the shares that the acquirer offered to purchase will be transferred to the acquirer by operation of law. However, a tender offer will also be accepted if the shareholders who do not accept the offer hold less than 2% of the issued and outstanding share capital of the company or of the applicable class of shares. Upon a successful completion of such a full tender offer, any shareholder that was an offeree in such tender offer, whether such shareholder accepted the tender offer or not, may, within six months from the date of acceptance of the tender offer, petition an Israeli court to determine whether the tender offer was for less than fair value and that the fair value should be paid as determined by the court. However, under certain conditions, the offeror may include in the terms of the tender offer that an offeree who accepted the offer will not be entitled to petition the Israeli court as described above. If a tender offer is not accepted in accordance with the requirements set forth above, the acquirer may not acquire shares from shareholders who accepted the tender offer that will increase its holdings to more than 90% of the company’s issued and outstanding share capital or of the applicable class. Special Tender Offer. The Companies Law provides that an acquisition of shares of an Israeli public company must be made by means of a special tender offer if as a result of the acquisition the purchaser would become a holder of 25% or more of the voting rights in the company. This requirement does not apply if there is already another holder of at least 25% of the voting rights in the company. Similarly, the Companies Law provides that an acquisition of shares in a public company must be made by means of a special tender offer if as a result of the acquisition the purchaser would become a holder of more than 45% of the voting rights in the company, if there is no other shareholder of the company who holds more than 45% of the voting rights in the company, subject to certain exceptions. 5 A special tender offer must be extended to all shareholders of a company, but the offeror is not required to purchase shares representing more than 5% of the voting power attached to the company’s outstanding shares, regardless of how many shares are tendered by shareholders. A special tender offer may be consummated only if (i) the offeror acquired shares representing at least 5% of the voting power in the company and (ii) the number of shares tendered by shareholders who accept the offer exceeds the number of shares held by shareholders who object to the offer (excluding the purchaser, controlling shareholders, holders of 25% or more of the voting rights in the company or any person having a personal interest in the acceptance of the tender offer, including their relatives and companies under their control). If a special tender offer is accepted, the purchaser or any person or entity controlling it or under common control with the purchaser or such controlling person or entity may not make a subsequent tender offer for the purchase of shares of the target company and may not enter into a merger with the target company for a period of one year from the date of the offer, unless the purchaser or such person or entity undertook to effect such an offer or merger in the initial special tender offer. Merger The Companies Law permits merger transactions if approved by each party’s board of directors and, unless certain requirements described under the Companies Law are met, by a majority vote of each party’s shareholders. In the case of the target company, approval of the merger further requires a majority vote of each class of its shares. For purposes of the shareholder vote, unless a court rules otherwise, the merger will not be deemed approved if a majority of the votes of shares represented at the meeting of shareholders that are held by parties other than the other party to the merger, or by any person (or group of persons acting in concert) who holds (or hold, as the case may be) 25% or more of the voting rights or the right to appoint 25% or more of the directors of the other party, vote against the merger. If, however, the merger involves a merger with a company’s own controlling shareholder or if the controlling shareholder has a personal interest in the merger, then the merger is instead subject to the same special majority approval that governs all extraordinary transactions with controlling shareholders (as described above under “Vote Requirements”). If the transaction would have been approved by the shareholders of a merging company but for the separate approval of each class or the exclusion of the votes of certain shareholders as provided above, a court may still approve the merger upon the petition of holders of at least 25% of the voting rights of a company. For such petition to be granted, the court must find that the merger is fair and reasonable, taking into account the respective values assigned to each of the parties to the merger and the consideration offered to the shareholders of the target company. Upon the request of a creditor of either party to the proposed merger, the court may delay or prevent the merger if it concludes that there exists a reasonable concern that, as a result of the merger, the surviving company will be unable to satisfy the obligations of the merging entities, and may further give instructions to secure the rights of creditors. In addition, a merger may not be consummated unless at least 50 days have passed from the date on which a proposal for approval of the merger is filed with the Israeli Registrar of Companies and at least 30 days have passed from the date on which the merger was approved by the shareholders of each party. 6 Anti-takeover Measures under Israeli Law The Companies Law allows us to create and issue shares having rights different from those attached to our ordinary shares, including shares providing certain preferred rights with respect to voting, distributions or other matters and shares having preemptive rights. No preferred shares are authorized under our articles. In the future, if we do authorize, create and issue a specific class of preferred shares, such class of shares, depending on the specific rights that may be attached to it, may have the ability to frustrate or prevent a takeover or otherwise prevent our shareholders from realizing a potential premium over the market value of their ordinary shares. The authorization and designation of a class of preferred shares will require an amendment to our articles, which requires the prior approval of the holders of a majority of the voting power attaching to our issued and outstanding shares at a general meeting. The convening of the meeting, the shareholders entitled to participate, and the majority vote required to be obtained at such a meeting will be subject to the requirements set forth in the Companies Law as described above in “Voting Rights.” Borrowing Powers Pursuant to the Companies Law and our articles, our board of directors may exercise all powers and take all actions that are not required under law or under our articles to be exercised or taken by our shareholders, including the power to borrow money for company purposes. Changes in Capital Our articles enable us to increase or reduce our share capital. Any such changes are subject to Israeli law and must be approved by a resolution duly passed by our shareholders at a general meeting by voting on such change in the capital. In addition, transactions that have the effect of reducing capital, such as the declaration and payment of dividends in the absence of sufficient retained earnings or profits, require the approval of both our board of directors and an Israeli court (other than an equity repurchase, for which we may proceed with the repurchase without obtaining court approval, provided that we follow the procedures described under “Dividend and Liquidation Rights” above). 7 SUBSIDIARIES OF KORNIT DIGITAL LTD.

For purposes of this Policy, the date on which Incentive-Based Compensation is “received” shall be determined under the Applicable Rules, which generally provide that Incentive-Based Compensation is “received” in the Company’s fiscal period during which the relevant Financial Reporting Measure is attained or satisfied, without regard to whether the grant, vesting or payment of the Incentive-Based Compensation occurs after the end of that period. 3. Recovery of Compensation In the event that the Company is required to prepare a Restatement, the Company shall recover, reasonably promptly and in accordance with Section 4 below, the portion of any Incentive-Based Compensation that is Erroneously Awarded Compensation, unless the Committee and the Board have determined that recovery from the relevant current or former Officer would be Impracticable. Recovery shall be required in accordance with the preceding sentence regardless of whether the applicable Officer engaged in misconduct or otherwise caused or contributed to the requirement for the Restatement and regardless of whether or when restated financial statements are filed by the Company. For clarity, the recovery of Erroneously Awarded Compensation under this Policy will not give rise to any Officer’s right to voluntarily terminate employment for “good reason” or due to a “constructive termination” (or any similar term of like effect) under any plan, program or policy of or agreement with the Company or any of its affiliates. 4. Manner of Recovery; Limitation on Duplicative Recovery The Committee and the Board shall, in their sole discretion, determine the manner of recovery of any Erroneously Awarded Compensation, which may include, without limitation, reduction or cancellation by the Company or an affiliate of the Company of Incentive-Based Compensation or Erroneously Awarded Compensation, reimbursement or repayment by any person subject to this Policy, and, to the extent permitted by law, an offset of the Erroneously Awarded Compensation against other compensation payable by the Company or an affiliate of the Company to such person. Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless otherwise prohibited by the Applicable Rules, to the extent this Policy provides for recovery of Erroneously Awarded Compensation already recovered by the Company pursuant to Section 304 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 or Other Recovery Arrangements, the amount of Erroneously Awarded Compensation already recovered by the Company from the recipient of such Erroneously Awarded Compensation may be credited to the amount of Erroneously Awarded Compensation required to be recovered pursuant to this Policy from such person. 5. Administration This Policy shall be administered, interpreted and construed by the Committee, which is authorized to make all determinations necessary, appropriate or advisable for such purpose. The Board may re-vest in itself the authority to administer, interpret and construe this Policy in accordance with applicable law, and in such event references herein to the “Committee” shall be deemed to be references to the Board. Subject to any permitted review by the applicable national securities exchange or association pursuant to the Applicable Rules, all determinations and decisions made by the Committee pursuant to the provisions of this Policy shall be final, conclusive and binding on all persons, including the Company and its affiliates, shareholders and employees. The Committee may delegate administrative duties with respect to this Policy to one or more directors or employees of the Company, as permitted under applicable law, including any Applicable Rules. 6. Interpretation This Policy shall be interpreted and applied in a manner that is consistent with the requirements of the Applicable Rules, and to the extent this Policy is inconsistent with such Applicable Rules, it shall be deemed amended to the minimum extent necessary to ensure compliance therewith. 7. No Indemnification; No Liability The Company shall not indemnify or insure any person against the loss of any Erroneously Awarded Compensation pursuant to this Policy, nor shall the Company directly or indirectly pay or reimburse any person for any premiums for third-party insurance policies that such person may elect to purchase to fund such person’s potential obligations under this Policy. None of the Company, an affiliate of the Company or any member of the Committee or the Board shall have any liability to any person as a result of actions taken under this Policy. 8. Application; Enforceability Except as otherwise determined by the Committee or the Board, the adoption of this Policy does not limit, and is intended to apply in addition to, any Other Recovery Arrangements. Without limiting the foregoing, in the event of a conflict between this Policy and the Compensation Policy, the latter shall prevail, except with respect to the recovery of any portion of Incentive-Based Compensation that is Erroneously Awarded Compensation that would not be recoverable under the Compensation Policy, in which case this Policy shall prevail. Subject to Section 4, the remedy specified in this Policy shall not be exclusive and shall be in addition to every other right or remedy at law or in equity that may be available to the Company or an affiliate of the Company or is otherwise required by applicable law and regulations. 9. Severability The provisions in this Policy are intended to be applied to the fullest extent of the law; provided, however, to the extent that any provision of this Policy is found to be unenforceable or invalid under any applicable law, such provision will be applied to the maximum extent permitted, and shall automatically be deemed amended in a manner consistent with its objectives to the extent necessary to conform to any limitations required under applicable law. 10. Amendment and Termination The Board or the Committee may amend, modify or terminate this Policy in whole or in part at any time and from time to time in its sole discretion. This Policy will terminate automatically when the Company does not have a class of securities listed on a national securities exchange or association in the U.S. 11.
