"believe," "continue," "could,"

similar terms or phrases. The forward-looking statements contained in this press release are based on management's current
expectations, which are subject to uncertainty, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict and many of which
are outside of ReWalk's control. Important factors that could cause ReWalk's actual results to differ materially from
those indicated in the forward-looking statements include, among others: ReWalk's expectations regarding future growth,
including its ability to increase sales in its existing geographic markets and to expand to new markets; ReWalk's ability
to maintain and grow its reputation and to achieve and maintain market acceptance of its products; ReWalk's ability to achieve
reimbursement from third-party payors for its products; ReWalk's expectations as to its clinical research program and clinical
results; ReWalk's ability to improve its products and develop new products; ReWalk's ability to maintain adequate
protection of its intellectual property and to avoid violation of the intellectual property rights of others; ReWalk's ability

maintain relationships with existing customers and develop relationships with new customers; and other factors discussed under
the heading "Risk Factors" in ReWalk's Annual

2016 and other documents subsequently filed with or furnished to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Any forward-looking
statement made in this press release speaks only as of the date hereof. Factors or events that could cause ReWalk's actual
results to differ from the statements contained herein may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for ReWalk to predict

as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement its consolidated financial
statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), ReWalk believes
that the use of non-GAAP accounting measures, including non-GAAP net loss is helpful to its investors. These measures, which the
Company refers to as non-GAAP financial measures, are not prepared in accordance with GAAP.
For the three months ended March
31, 2016 and 2015, non-GAAP net loss is calculated as GAAP net loss excluding (i) non-cash share-based compensation expense
(ii) depreciation and (iii) non-cash financial expenses.
Because of varying available valuation
methodologies, subjective assumptions, and the variety of equity instruments that can impact a company's non-cash expenses,
the Company believes that providing non-GAAP financial measures that exclude share-based compensation expense, depreciation and
non-cash financial (income) expenses allow for more meaningful comparisons between operating results from period to period. Each
of the Company's non-GAAP financial measures is an important tool for financial and operational decision-making and for
evaluating our own operating results over different periods of time. The non-GAAP financial data are not measures of the Company's
financial performance under U.S. GAAP, and should not be considered as alternatives to operating loss or net loss or any other
performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures may not provide information that is directly
comparable to that provided by other companies in the Company's industry, as other companies in the industry may calculate
non-GAAP financial results differently, particularly related to non-recurring, unusual items. In addition, there are limitations
in using non-GAAP financial measures because the non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, may be
different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies, and exclude expenses that may have a material impact on the
Company's reported financial results. Further, share-based compensation expense has been, and will continue to be for the
foreseeable future, a significant recurring expense in the Company's business and an important part of the compensation
provided to its employees. The presentation of non-GAAP financial information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as
a substitute for the directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. ReWalk urges investors to review
the reconciliation of our non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures included below, and not to rely
on any single financial measures to evaluate the business.
