MGT CAPITAL INVESTMENTS, INC. (FORMERLY MEDICSIGHT, INC.)
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
1. Organization, basis of presentation and liquidity
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of MGT Capital Investments, Inc. (formerly Medicsight, Inc) have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, for a fair statement have been included. Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any subsequent quarter or for the year ending December 31, 2007. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its majority owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
MGT Capital Investments, Inc is a holding company in the global Healthcare Information Technology sector (HCIT). We currently have two subsidiary operations that we are majority shareholders in.
The Company has incurred significant operating losses since inception and has just commenced generating revenue from operations. As a result, the Company has generated negative cash flows from operations and has an accumulated deficit of $215,456,000 at September 30, 2007. The Company is operating in a developing industry based on new technology and its primary source of funds to date has been through the issuance of securities.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
As of September 30, 2007, there have been no material changes to any of our significant accounting policies, except that we adopted the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (FIN 48), on January 1, 2007. FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprises financial statements in accordance with FASB Statement 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.
Based on our evaluation, we have concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in our financial statements. Our evaluation was performed for the tax years ended December 31, 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2006, the tax years which remain subject to examination by major tax jurisdictions as of September 30, 2007.
Revenue Recognition
Medicsight PLC
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) Statement of Position (SOP) 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, as amended by SOP 98-4 and SOP 98-9, as well as Technical Practice Aids issued from time to time by the AICPA, and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104. The Company recognizes revenue when it is realized or realizable and earned. The Company considers revenue realized or realizable and earned when it has persuasive evidence of an arrangement, the product has been shipped or the services have been provided to the customer, the sales price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is probable.
License fee revenue is derived from the licensing of computer software. Maintenance revenue is derived from software maintenance. The Companys software licenses are generally sold as part of an arrangement that includes maintenance and support.
The Company licenses software and sells maintenance through visualization solution partners and original equipment manufacturers. The Company receives regular sales reports detailing the number of licenses sold by original equipment manufacturers, value-added resellers and independent distributors (collectively, Resellers) to end users. The Company generally offers terms that require payment 30 days from invoicing.
Provided revenue recognition criteria are met, license revenue from Resellers is recognized on a sell-in basis provided the Reseller i) assumes all risk of the purchase, ii) has the ability and obligation to pay regardless of receiving payment from the end user.
Additionally:
Software Revenue from license fees is recognized when notification of shipment to the end user has occurred, there are no significant Company obligations with regard to implementation and the Companys services are not considered essential to the functionality of other elements of the arrangement.
8
Services Revenue from maintenance and support arrangements is deferred and recognized rateably over the term of the maintenance and support arrangements.
Multiple-Element Arrangements The Company enters into arrangements with Resellers that include a combination of software products, maintenance and support. For such arrangements, the Company recognizes revenue using the residual method. The Company allocates the total arrangement fee among the various elements of the arrangement based on the fair value of each of the undelivered elements determined by vendor-specific objective evidence. The fair value of maintenance and support services is established based on renewal rates. In software arrangements for which the Company does not have vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value for all elements, revenue is deferred until the earlier of when vendor-specific objective evidence is determined for the undelivered elements (residual method) or when all elements for which the Company does not have vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value have been delivered.
As at 30 September 2007 we have $2,000 of deferred revenue relating to support and maintenance services (2006: $Nil).
Medicexchange
We recognize revenue from services rendered when the following revenue recognition criteria are met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, services have been rendered, the selling price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured.
Deferred revenue is recorded when payments are received in advance of performing our service obligations.
As at 30 September 2007 we have $6,000 of deferred service revenue (2006: $Nil).
3. Principal activities
MGT Capital Investments, Inc (MGT) is a holding company in the global Healthcare Information Technology sector (HCIT). We currently have a controlling interest in two companies: Medicsight PLC and Medicexchange.
Medicsight PLC (AIM: MDST)
Medicsight PLC (Medicsight) is a medical imaging software development company listed on the AIM Market of the London Stock Exchange (Ticker symbol MDST) that develops and commercializes enterprise-wide Computer-Aided Detection (CAD) applications to which analyze Computer Tomography (CT) scans for the early detection and measurement of colorectal polyps and lung lesions.
On June 21, 2007, Medicsight completed its Initial Public Offering on the AIM Market of the London Stock Exchange. 29 million new shares were issued to institutional and other investors at a price of £1.10 ($2.20) per share raising £32 million ($64 million) gross new money. We incurred fees of £1.6 million ($3.2 million), including $298,000 with Asia IT Capital Investments Limited Asia IT (a related party). £5.5 million ($11.1 million) of the net proceeds were used to repay debt (between Medicsight and MGT). The remaining £24.9 million ($49.8 million) cash inflow from the IPO will be used for working capital and business development.
Immediately prior to the Medicsight IPO, MGT sold down, by private placement (via Asia IT a related party) 11.7 million of its Medicsight shares. The shares were priced at £1.10 ($2.20) the same price as the Medicsight PLC IPO. Gross proceeds on the private placement were $25.7 million. We incurred fees with Asia IT (a related party) of $1.2 million, resulting in a net cash inflow of $24.5 million. These proceeds were received in July 2007.
Consistent with the guidance of Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 51 we credited these proceeds to Additional Paid In Capital and Minority Interest and have not recognized any gain from the private placement of the Medicsight shares.
We believe we have sufficient capital tax loss carry forwards to offset the chargeable gain from this disposal.
After the private placement and the IPO, MGT holds 85 million (55%) of the 155 million issued share capital of Medicsight PLC. On September 28, 2007, (the third quarters last trading day), Medicsight shares closed at a price of £1.10 ($2.25), valuing MGTs 85 million shares at $191 million.

The assumptions above are based on multiple factors including United Kingdom treasury bonds for the risk-free rate at the time of grant, expected future exercising patterns (we cannot base the estimate on the historical exercise patterns as no options have been exercised) and the volatility of the MGT stock price.
The assumptions used in the Black-Scholes option valuation model are highly subjective, and can materially affect the resulting valuation.

MGT is a holding company in the global Healthcare Information Technology (HCIT) market. We have two subsidiaries, Medicsight and Medicexchange.
Medicsight PLC (MDST)
MDST is a medical imaging software development company developing enterprise-wide Computer-Aided Detection (CAD) software which analyses computer tomography (CT) scans for the early detection and measurement of colorectal polyps and lung lesions.
Medicsight has focused on two of the leading causes of cancer-related death, colorectal cancer (also known as colon or bowel cancer) and lung cancer. There is increasing evidence in managements view that early detection of colon cancer or lung cancer leads to an improved life expectancy.
Colon Cancer
World Health Organisation data shows that colon cancer causes 655,000 deaths each year. If detected early enough, 90 percent of cases can be 100 percent curable. Colon cancer is one of the most prevalent cancers in western countries, and is likely to grow faster in developing countries whose populations are consuming more and more of a western style diet.
Many western countries operate colon cancer screening programs, and computer tomography colonography (which is an examination of the large colon using CT x-rays, often abbreviated to CTC, and also known as virtual colonoscopy) is ideally suited for population screening of asymptomatic adults.
Compared with optical colonoscopy (which is an examination of the large colon and the distal part of the small bowel with a fibre optic camera), CTC screening is:
a. less invasive;
b. less time consuming;
c. less costly;
d. and can be at least as effective.
CTC screening is becoming increasingly available in a routine clinical setting, particularly for symptomatic or screening of high risk patients.
Lung Cancer
Lung cancer is the most common and deadliest of all cancers. Worldwide 1.3 million cases of lung cancer are diagnosed each year, and the disease accounts for 17.1 per cent of all global cancer deaths.
The link between smoking and lung cancer has long been accepted. However, clinical research has shown that if detected early and treated, there is more than an 85 per cent chance of a ten year survival rate from lung cancer.
As smoking increases dramatically in Asia, it is predicted that the number of cases of lung cancer diagnosed each year in Asia will dramatically increase over the next decade.
16
Medicsights Product Development Focus
Developing technology that is used alongside Multi Detector Computer Tomography (MDCT) scanners that enables the early detection of colon and lung cancers has been the core focus of the Companys product development given MDCT Scanning is clinically recognized as a reliable, non-invasive examination for the detection of colon and lung cancer.
The most crucial requirements in cancer detection and diagnosis are the abilities to:
a. detect potential abnormalities at an early stage; and
b. accurately monitor any growths over time.
Medicsights Colon CAD and Lung CAD products can significantly help radiologists meet these requirements.
The CAD products can be applied to both asymptomatic screening populations (i.e. a person with no existing obvious symptoms), and for diagnostic interpretation of symptomatic patients (i.e. a person with obvious symptoms).
In a screening scenario providing population screening of high risk asymptomatic patients, CAD CT seeks to provide a cost effective solution by identifying certain diseases sufficiently early in the life of the disease, to be more cost effective in terms of life years saved and the resource costs of disease management. The application of CAD to aid detection and diagnosis in symptomatic patients supports diagnostic decision-making and treatment planning through the identification and measurement tracking of lesions.
Clinical Validation
Colon CAD
Medicsights Colon CAD research focuses on the accurate identification of colon polyps. A recent clinical research study showed the Medicsight ColonCAR system to have superior detection characteristics when compared with three experienced (human) readers and our software performance has been peer reviewed and commended in a majority of the top internationally recognized medical journals.
In September 2006, Professor Steve Halligan of University College Hospital, London, conducted an independent systematic review of all commercially available Colon CAD products. This review was performed using the principles of evidence-based medicine and systematic review in order to search the available medical literature in an unbiased fashion. The aim was to determine the volume and quality of medical research available for commercially available CAD for CT colonography from companies providing systems both independently and as CT vendors.
The most exacting standard for medical research is peer-reviewed full papers published in indexed medical journals. Only 6 papers were identified. 5 (83%) of these were from a single company, Medicsight PLC. No other independent CAD manufacturer was able to contribute a paper. The single additional full-paper identified was provided by a CT scanner vendor (Siemens).
Published data describe a per-patient sensitivity of 96% for polyps 6mm and larger when the Medicsight CAD was tested by external validation i.e. patient data completely unrelated to development of the product. Data also shows that Medicsight CAD outperformed experienced readers, and was more time-efficient than conventional reading. Medicsight has also published peer-reviewed data relating to successful automatic measurement of polyp diameter. The single other peer-reviewed paper retrieved (from Siemens) found per-polyp detection rates of 82% for medium polyps and 100% for large, but using an internal validation methodology (i.e. the same data source was used to both train and test the software).
19 abstracts of research findings presented at key scientific medical meetings were identified. Medicsight PLC was again the largest single contributor (9 abstracts, 47% of total). Moreover, the three remaining independent CAD companies contributed only a single abstract between them. The remaining 9 abstracts were from CT scanner vendors 8 from Siemens, 1 from Philips. 7 studies examined the effect of CAD on reader decision-making; 3 from Medicsight, 3 from Siemens, and 1 from Median Technologies. The largest study was from Medicsight (10 readers, 107 patients), which found that CAD significantly increased per-patient and per-polyp sensitivity without a significant detrimental effect on specificity. The next largest study was presented by Siemens (7 readers, 30 patients). While sensitivity was improved significantly, the authors claimed a detrimental effect on specificity.
Concerning abstracted data relating to measurement, Medicsight PLC were the only company to present data relating to measurement of real, human polyps, doing so both in-vivo and in vitro. Siemens presented date for measurement in phantoms but there were some concerns relating to the statistical methodology used for analysis of agreement.
Lung CAD
Medicsights Lung CAD research has focussed on both the detection of lung lesions (nodules and cancers) and the accuracy of the CAD in automatically measuring lesions. Accurate measurement is crucial for the correct diagnosis and management of lung
17
lesions. Accurate measurement of lesions allows their growth to be tracked over time. Growth rate helps radiologists both to diagnose the nature of disease and to assess the response of disease to treatment.
Clinical Sites
Ever since early development, Medicsights Colon and Lung CAD products have been in use in leading healthcare institutions within Europe and the United States, and more recently in Asia, for research and early clinical user assessment. Our Colon CAD products have been used in: University College Hospital, London St. Marks Hospital (London), University of Wisconsin Hospital, University of Rome and The National Cancer Centre (Tokyo). Our Lung CAD products have been used in: The London Chest Hospital, The Royal Brompton Hospital, Cornell Medical Centre New York, Vanderbilt Medical Centre (Tennessee), The University Health Network (Toronto, Canada), The University of Navarra Medical Centre (Pamplona, Spain) and The National Cancer Centre (Tokyo).
These results have been crucial in developing Medicsights CAD products to meet the absolute requirements of clinical end users, and in driving the use of CAD in routine clinical practice. To facilitate this collaborative program, during 2006 Medicsight held international Medical Advisory Board meetings with key luminaries and practitioners in the fields of CT colonography and lung disease. Medical Advisory Board meetings took place in Europe, North America and Japan, drawing together international expertise and understanding of the current and future clinical requirements and vision for CAD and medical image analysis software.
The use of Medicsights products in clinical practice has seen the recent introduction of Medicsight ColonCAD into the SIGGAR1 Trial in the UK. SIGGAR1 is the largest multi-centre trial of its kind in the UK to date and compares CT colonography, optical colonoscopy and barium enema via a randomised controlled clinical trial. Medicsights ColonCAD has also been introduced into the STIC Trial in France, a similar program investigating the medical and economic health benefits of CT colonography. In mid 2007, the first CTC colorectal cancer screening program in Japan will commence and a key feature of this program will be the use of Medicsights ColonCAD.
The Company continues to work with internationally respected medical professionals who are experts in the fields of the colon and the lung. These clinical relationships include:

Dr. Heidi Roberts at the University Health Network, Toronto, Canada
Dr. Ryutaro Kakinuma at the National Cancer Centre, Tokyo
In a growing commitment to clinician education programs, Medicsight has also supported the European Society of Gastrointestinal and Abdominal Radiology (ESGAR) through active participation in ESGARs series of international CT Colonography workshops. Workshops are targeted at both novices and those currently undertaking CTC practice and give attendees the opportunity to experience Medicsight ColonCAD with hands-on training using multiple Medicsight partner software systems. Further educational involvement has come through Medicsights direct support of two Harvard Medical School, Department of Continuing Medical Education Virtual Colonoscopy courses in the United States. Course delegates receive dedicated tutorials lead by CTC luminaries Drs Matt Barish and Michael Zalis of Harvard Medical School, and training on Viatronix software systems incorporating Medicsight ColonCAD.
Regulatory Environment
In order to release new products into a specific market, the Company must gain local regulatory approvals for its CAD products. In the USA, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is the regulatory authority. In Europe, regulatory approval is gained through Conformité Europeène (CE) marking. Other markets such as China (SFDA State Food & Drug Administration); Japan (MHLW Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare); Australia (TGA Therapeutic Goods Administration); South Korea (KFDA
18
Korea Food & Drugs Administration); and Canada (CMDCAS Canadian Medical Device Conformity Assessment System) have their own regulatory bodies but these often require companies outside of these markets to show evidence of an existing CE or FDA approval for a product before gaining approval in the local market.
The Medicsight team has a significant amount of experience in preparing, submitting and gaining regulatory approvals.
European (CE) Approval
The Companys ColonCAD and LungCAD products are approved.
USA (FDA) Clearance
The Companys CAR products (which are earlier releases of the ColonCAD and LungCAD products) are FDA cleared.
The Company is in the process of completing the FDAs clearance procedures to have the ColonCAD and LungCAD products cleared for the USA market.
Canada (CMDCAS) Approval
On January 30, 2007 we were granted medical Device Licences from the Therapeutic Products Directorate of Health Canada for our latest ColonCAD and our LungCAD products.
China and Japan
The Company expects applications to be submitted to receive approvals for the MedicRead Colon (which includes ColonCAD) during 2007.
Australia and Brazil
The Company expects applications to be submitted to receive approvals its CAD products late 2007 / early in 2008.
Medicsights Growth Strategy
The strategic objective over the next 1-3 years is to grow sales in order to make significant profits and to increase shareholder value. During this period, strategic merger and acquisition opportunities will be actively sought.
This is intended to be achieved by:
a. Signing new distribution agreements for ColonCAD and LungCAD.
b. Aggressively driving the use and distribution of the existing ColonCAD and LungCAD products (offices have been established in both Japan and China specifically for this purpose).
c. Generating additional revenue opportunities through the per click model.
d. Continuing to invest in improved clinical awareness and validation.
e. Working with governments, international health organisations and medical institutions to promote the benefits of early disease detection and to publicise the potential for population screening programs to reduce premature deaths from diseases that can be curable if detected early in the disease process.
f. Actively promote CAD through support of accredited training programs.
g. To introduce additional products into the Companys portfolio by a combination of internal research and development and acquisitions.
The Company has signed a number of non-exclusive global agreements for the distribution of its products with the following partners:
a. Vital Images Inc. ColonCAD has been successfully integrated into its CT colonography application which is part of the Vitrea software package;
b. Viatronix Inc. ColonCAD and LungCAD have been successfully integrated into its V3D Colon software;
19
c. TeraRecon Inc. which has successfully integrated ColonCAD and LungCAD into its Aquarius family of medical imaging applications;
d. 3mensio Medical Imaging BV which has integrated LungCAD in the 3viseon range of products Medicsight is also in discussion with a number of other major imaging companies and expects to finalise distribution agreements in Japan and Europe over the coming months.
e. Barco NV ColonCAD has been integrated into Barcos Colonmetrix solution and will be sold as standard with every Colonmetrix solution going forward.
Competition
The Companys main competitors can be divided into two categories:
a. MDCT scanner manufacturers such as GE, Hitachi, Philips, Siemens and Toshiba;
b. Independent CAD software providers.
The Company is not aware of any MDCT manufacturers who have a colon CAD product other than Siemens which has a CAD-like colon product. Only Siemens has a commercially available lung CAD product although GE has a CAD-like lung product.
In the CAD vendor market, there are a number of small, independent software providers, which include:
a. iMED (Italy) has developed a Colon CAD product that is CE certified but not FDA approved;
b. Median Technology (France) has developed a Colon CAD product and a Lung CAD (CAD-lung) both have CE approval but not FDA approval;
c. QI (Quantitative Imaging) (USA) has developed a Colon CAD product that is integrated only with the Viatronix platform. This CAD application is not FDA approved;
d. R2 (USA) has developed a Lung CAD product that is FDA approved.
As described earlier, Professor Steve Halligan of University College Hospital London conducted an independent systematic review of peer reviewed clinical research on each of the above Colon CAD applications that concluded that Medicsights Colon CAD software not only had more peer reviewed clinical data to support its claims, but also that the quality of the data was superior to the competition.
At this time, the Company has not commissioned a similar competitive analysis of the Lung CAD applications.
Medicsight PLC admission to the AIM Market of the London Stock Exchange
On June 21, 2007, Medicsight PLC completed its initial public offering on the AIM Market of the London Stock Exchange. 29 million new shares were issued to institutional and other investors at a price of £1.10 ($2.20) per share raising £32 million ($64 million) gross new money. We incurred fees of £1.6 million ($3.2 million), including $298,000 with Asia IT Capital Investments Ltd (a related party). £5.5 million ($11.1 million) of the net proceeds were used to repay debt (between Medicsight PLC and MGT). The remaining £24.9 million ($49.8 million) cash inflow from the IPO will be used for working capital and business development.
Immediately prior to the Medicsight PLC IPO, we sold down, by private placement via Asia IT Capital Investments Ltd (a related party) 11.7 million of our Medicsight PLC shares. The shares were priced at £1.10 ($2.20) the same price as the Medicsight IPO. Gross proceeds on the private placement were $25.7 million. We incurred fees with Asia IT Capital Investments Ltd (a related party) of $1.2 million. These proceeds were received on July 27, 2007. We believe we have sufficient brought forward capital tax losses to offset the chargeable gain from this disposal.
After the private placement and the IPO, MGT holds 85 million (55%) of the 155 million issued share capital of Medicsight PLC. On September 30, 2007, Medicsight PLC shares closed at a price of £1.10 ($2.25), valuing MGTs 85 million shares at $191 million.
Medicexchange (MDX)
Medicexchange provides medical imaging professionals with a global web portal containing an online sales channel for diagnostic, treatment and surgery planning solutions. This combined with a variety of relevant news, jobs, clinical papers, training materials and content gives these professionals access to information and products that they otherwise would have difficulty accessing.
20
Medical imaging vendors are provided with a global online channel through which they can access a large community of medical imaging professionals in order to market and sell their product solutions.
Medicexchange was launched at the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) conference in Chicago in November 2006.
The Medicexchange portal covers the following imaging specialty areas: Breast, Cardiology, Abdominal-Pelvic, Neurology, Thoracic and Musculoskeletal.
Medicexchange has offices in the UK, USA and China.
Benefits for Medical Imaging Vendors
Medicexchange provides vendors the opportunity to sell Medical Imaging products directly to radiologists in an efficient and low-cost manner (including web-based downloads).
Medicexchange offers traditional pricing plans in addition to flexible per use pricing. This decreases the financial purchasing risk and setup times for radiologists by giving them an attractive pricing model via an online channel.
Marketing and promotional activities are also provided for vendors such as email campaigns, online marketing, print advertising and e-newsletters.
With a local Chinese infrastructure, access to a large Chinese dealer network and a dedicated Chinese language version of the Medicexchange website, Medicexchange is also able to offer vendors a route for entering and selling within China.
Medicexchange is also able to offer assistance with taking vendors through regulatory clearance such as CE (Europe), FDA (USA) and SFDA (China).
Benefits for Radiologists
Medicexchange adds value for radiologists by delivering a centralized meeting place for news, clinical information, jobs products and collaboration.
Medicexchange intends to offer the widest selection of medical imaging products online, all in one place. These products can be evaluated and purchased directly from the web site.
Medicexchange offers a number of ways for radiologists to purchase products including credit/debit card, pro form invoicing and payments on account. For some products, Medicexchange also plans to offer flexible per use pricing to allow the radiologist to pay based on a per-patient or per-study basis.
Medicexchange also offers many products on a trial basis to allow radiologists to evaluate products before they purchase.
Radiologists are also offered a free first line customer support service when they register with Medicexchange.
Market Opportunity
Radiologists expect the frequency of computed tomography (CT) procedures to grow by over 35% over the next five years (source: Frost & Sullivan research). Traditional original equipment manufacturers (OEM) typically control the access to these applications and charge high per unit price points (typically $50,000 to $200,000). These high price points create long sales cycles. The per use pricing model offered by Medicexchange removes this obstacle to purchase. Online product purchasing and downloads create a flexible, on demand usage model.
Radiologists state a preference for the concept of a per use pricing model and web-based downloadable tools. Over 80% would consider a dedicated internet portal for their area of specialty a useful service (source: Frost & Sullivan research).
What differentiates the company?
By creating strong commercial relationships with our third party partner vendors Medicexchange intends to develop the clinical information and contacts, provide products and product demonstrations, training and support that will result in Medicexchange achieving its aim to be the leading global portal for clinical vendors and professionals.
Medicexchange aims to provide essential information, training and collaborative tools to attract customers, enable them to use the demonstration applications, purchase the applications and retain them as repeat users.
The Medicexchange portal is a global distribution portal (initially focused in the U.S., Europe and Asia).
21
With offices in Europe, USA and China, Medicexchange is able to a global service whilst also providing local expertise within specific markets as required.

Employees
As of September 30, 2007, the Company and its subsidiaries had 77 employees, all of whom are full-time employees. Our employees are not part of a union. We believe that we have an excellent relationship with our employees.
Patents and Trademarks
Protection of our proprietary technology and our rights over that technology, from copy or unchallenged and improper use, is essential to our future success. Any challenges to, or disputes concerning, our core technology may result in great expense to us, delays in bringing products to market and disruption of our focus on our core activities. They may also result in loss of rights over our technology or the right to operate in particular markets due to adverse legal decisions against us.
The Company has filed patent applications in the United Kingdom, the United States, the European Patent Office, Japan, South Korea, Australia, Canada, and under the International Patent Cooperation Treaty (which currently has 128 member countries) covering its core technologies and their applications. We have recently filed new patent applications covering technology of both Medicsight CAD and Medicexchange and intend to continue filing new applications in the future. Two patents have been granted in the US covering aspects of Medicsight CAD technology. Although prior art searches have been carried out, we cannot provide assurance that any or all of the pending patents will be granted or that they will not be challenged, or that rights granted to us will actually provide us with advantage over our competitors. The Company actively reviews third party patents and is not currently aware of any that our products will infringe.
We have filed applications to register Medicsight , Medicsight Colon Screen , Medicsight Heart Screen , Medicsight Lung Screen , Medicsight Colon CAR , Medicsight Lung CAR , Medicsight Computer Assisted Reader , Medicsight See More, Save More , Lung CAR, Medicsight ImageView, MedicRead, Medicexchange, and MedicView as trademarks in the United Kingdom, the European Community and the United States, and in a number of other countries. These trademarks are important to the corporate identity in connection with Medicsight CAD.
Failure to register appropriate patents, copyrights or trademarks in any jurisdiction may impede our ability to create brand awareness in our products, result in expenses in pursuing our rights with respect to our intellectual property, or result in lost revenues due to intellectual property disputes. Where we may be required to purchase licenses from sellers with prior rights in any country, we cannot assure you that we will be able to do so at a commercially acceptable cost.
Research and Development
Under United States generally accepted accounting principles, costs incurred in connection with the development of software products that are intended for sale are accounted for in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 86, Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed. Costs incurred prior to technological feasibility being established for the product are expensed as incurred. Technological feasibility is established upon completion of a detailed program design or, in its absence, completion of a working model. Thereafter, all software production costs can be capitalized and subsequently reported at the lower of unamortized cost or net realizable value. Capitalized costs are amortized based on current and future revenue for each product with an annual minimum equal to the straight-line amortization over the remaining estimated economic life of the product. Amortization commences when the product is available for general release to customers.
The Company concluded that capitalizing such expenditures on completion of a working model was inappropriate because the Company did not incur any material software production costs and therefore has decided to expense all research and development costs. The Companys research and development costs are comprised of staff and consultancy costs expensed on the Medicsight products.
22
In the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 the Company expensed $1,576,000, and $1,634,000 respectively for research and development expenses for its products. We cannot predict the amount of additional expenditures that will be necessary prior to achieving commercialization of our products.

Critical Accounting Policies and the Use of Estimates
We believe there have been no significant changes in our critical accounting policies during the nine months ended September 30, 2007 as compared to our previous disclosures in Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006.
The accompanying discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our condensed consolidated financial statements and the related disclosures, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the reported amounts in our condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates.
We believe the following policies to be the most critical to an understanding of our financial condition and results of operations because they require us to make estimates, assumptions and judgments about matters that are inherently uncertain.
Revenue Recognition
We follow specific and detailed guidelines in determining the proper amount of revenue to be recorded; however, certain judgments affect the application of our revenue recognition policy. Revenue results are difficult to predict, and any delay in recognizing revenue could cause our operating results to vary significantly from period to period.
The significant judgments for revenue recognition typically involve determining the exact date when licenses are sold to end users and the date from which support and maintenance commences. In addition, our transactions often consist of multiple element arrangements, which must be analyzed to determine the fair value of each element, the amount of revenue to be recognized initially, and the period and conditions under which deferred revenue should be recognized. As a result, if facts and circumstances change that affect our current judgments, our revenue could be materially different in the future.
We recognize revenue in accordance with American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) Statement of Position (SOP) 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, as amended by SOP 98-4 and SOP 98-9, as well as Technical Practice Aids issued from time to time by the AICPA, and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104. We recognize revenue when it is realized or realizable and earned. We consider revenue realized or realizable and earned when we have persuasive evidence of an arrangement, the product has been provided to the customer, the sales price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is probable.
Income Taxes
Although we have pre-tax losses for financial reporting purposes for the nine months ended 30 September 2007, there are still income taxes payable. These have been derived from tax on interest income and dividend income earned within the parent company accounts of MGT.
Stock Based Compensation
We have issued employee stock options from both Medicsight PLC and Medicexchange PLC (our UK subsidiary companies). We use the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of employee stock options. Calculating the fair value of these stock options requires considerable judgment, including estimating stock price volatility, the amount of options that are expected to be forfeited and the expected life of the options awards.
23
The value of a stock option is derived from its potential for appreciation. The more volatile the stock, the more valuable the option becomes due to the greater possibility of significant changes in stock price. The expected option term also has a significant effect on the value of the option. The longer the term, the more time the option holder has to allow the stock price to increase without a cash investment and thus, the more valuable the option. When establishing an estimate of the expected term, we consider the vesting period for the award and our estimate of employees likely stock option exercises, the expected volatility, and a comparison to relevant peer group data.
At the time of the respective stock options were granted, the shares underlying the awarded stock options were not publicly traded shares. We review our valuation assumptions at each grant date and, as a result, we are likely to change our valuation assumptions used to value stock based awards granted in future periods. Actual results, and future changes in estimates, may differ substantially from our current estimates. As a result, if factors change and we use different assumptions, our stock-based compensation expense could be materially different in the future.

Our selling, general and administrative expenses have increased as we expand our international commercial operations. The significant elements being: (a) an increase in people related costs on the prior period as we paid an IPO bonus to Medicsight PLC employees of $890,000 in June 2007; (b) an increase in stock option costs due to the E and F grants in Medicsight PLC and Plan B grants in Medicexchange and the modifications made in February 2007 to the existing A to D option plans in Medicsight PLC.

Private placement of Medicsight PLC shares
In June 2007, immediately prior to the IPO of Medicsight PLC, we sold by a private placement via Asia IT Capital Investments Ltd (a related party), 11.7 million of our Medicsight PLC shares. The shares were priced at £1.10 ($2.20) the same price as the Medicsight IPO. Gross proceeds on the private placement were $25.7 million. We incurred fees with Asia IT Capital Investments Ltd (a related party) of $1.2 million, resulting in a net cash inflow of $24.5 million. These proceeds were received in July 2007. We believe we have sufficient capital tax loss carry forwards to offset the chargeable gain from this disposal.
Immediately before the private placement we held 96.7 million (77%) of the 126 million issued share capital of Medicsight PLC. After the private placement we held 85 million (67%) of the 126 million issued share capital of Medicsight PLC. After the Medicsight PLC IPO we hold 85 million (55%) of the 155 million issued share capital of Medicsight PLC.
Consistent with the guidance of Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 51 we credited these proceeds to Additional Paid in Capital and Minority Interest and have not recognized any gain from the private placement of the Medicsight PLC shares. At this time we do not expect a similar transaction to occur in the future.

As of September 30, 2007 we had $99,624,000 in cash (compared to $10,955,000 at September 30, 2006) and $139,000 in marketable securities compared to $3,644,000 at September 30, 2006.
Net cash used in operating activities was $(10,953,000) for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 ($10,656,000 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2006). This resulted primarily from:
a. our net loss of $9,807,000 compared with a net loss of $10,938,000 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2006;
b. adjusted for depreciation and stock-based compensation expenses (non cash items) of $1,184,000 ($557,000 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2006);
c. an overall increase in current assets and liabilities (excluding cash items) of $108,000 in the period ended September 30, 2007 compared to $171,000 ( reduction) for the period ended September 30, 2006.
d. loss attributable to minority interest of $2,444,000 for the nine month period September 30, 2007 compared to $115,000 as at September 30, 2006.
Net cash provided in investing activities was $3,730,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and $91,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 consisted primarily of:
e. in the nine months ended September 30, 2007 we received $5,141,000 from the sale of available for sale marketable securities as compared to $(3,511,000) which was used for purchases of available for sale marketable securities for the nine month period ended September 30, 2006;
f. in the nine months ended September 30, 2007 we used $(411,000) in capital expenditure ($398,000) for the nine months ended September 30, 2006.
g. in the nine months ended September 30, 2007 we used $(1,000,000) for the purchase of Investments at Cost.
h. September 30, 2006 included a cash inflow of $4,000,000 representing cash held for common stock subscribed but not issued.
Net cash flows provided by financing activities of $85,611,000 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2007 (compared to $14,285,000 provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2006). This primarily consisted of a cash inflow of $85,618,000 (net of commissions) relating to the IPO of Medicsight PLC. Net proceeds from the issue of shares in the nine month period ended September 30, 2006 totalled $17,898,000.
The company considers that current cash flows are adequate to cover the business operations for the next twelve months.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Interest Rate Risk
Our exposure to market rate risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to our investment portfolio. We place our investments in a mixture of (a) cash deposits on either overnight or 30 day rates; (b) highly liquid blue chip available-for-sale market securities. A decline in interest rate would have an adverse impact on interest income.
We do not have any debt and we do not use derivative financial instruments.
Foreign Exchange Risk
We are exposed to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations related to the operation of our international subsidiaries. Our main operating currency is UK sterling (£). We also have subsidiary operations in Japan and China who operate in their local currencies.
At the end of each reporting period, expenses of the subsidiaries are converted into U.S. dollars using the average currency rate in effect for the period and assets and liabilities are converted into U.S. dollars using the exchange rate in effect at the end of the period.
Additionally, we are exposed to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations relating to payments we make to vendors and suppliers using foreign currencies.
We currently do not hedge against this foreign currency risk.
Fluctuations in exchange rates may impact our financial condition and results of operations.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act, our management carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2007. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. As defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures of the Company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commissions rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Companys management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2007. It should be noted that the design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
As required by Rule 13a-15(d) under the Exchange Act, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, also conducted an evaluation of our internal control over financial reporting to determine whether any change occurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2007, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Based on that evaluation during the quarter ended September 30, 2007 there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
The Company is currently undergoing a comprehensive effort in preparation for compliance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. This will involve the documentation, testing and review of our internal controls under the direction of senior management.

There are currently no pending legal proceedings.
Discussion of our business and operations included in this annual report on Form 10-Q should be read together with the risk factors set forth below. They describe various risks and uncertainties to which we are or may become subject. These risks and uncertainties, together with other factors described elsewhere in this report, have the potential to affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, strategies or prospects in a material and adverse manner. New risks may emerge at any time, and we cannot predict those risks or estimate the extent to which they may affect financial performance. Each of the risks described below could adversely impact the value of our securities. These statements, like all statements in this report, speak only as of the date of this report (unless another date is indicated), and we undertake no obligation to update or revise the statements in light of future developments.
We cannot assure you that the Company will be successful in commercializing the Medicsight CAD products or the Medicexchange portal, or if the products or the portal are commercialized, that they will be profitable to the Company. We face obstacles in commercializing the Medicsight CAD products and the Medicexchange portal and in generating operating revenues as detailed below.
The Company does not believe that there is currently any comparable system that is competitive with the Medicsight CAD products. There are computer-aided diagnostic systems that operate in the field, but, in our view, such other systems are more dependent than ours on human resources to carry out the analysis. We are not aware of other systems in the field that have the automated capability of our products.
The Company has had only a limited operating history and has only just started generating revenues from its continuing operations upon which an evaluation of its prospects can be made. The Companys prospects must be considered keeping in mind the risks, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered in the establishment of a new business in constantly changing industry. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to achieve profitable operations in the foreseeable future or at all.
The Company has identified a number of specific risk areas that may affect the Companys operations and results in the future:
Technical Risks.
The Medicsight CAD system may not deliver the levels of accuracy and reliability needed, or the development of such accuracy and reliability may be delayed.
Market Risks
The market for the Medicsight CAD products and Medicexchange may be slower to develop or smaller than estimated or it may be more difficult to build the market than anticipated. The medical community may resist the Medicsight CAD and Medicexchange products or be slower to accept them than we expect. Revenues from Medicsight CAD and Medicexchange may be delayed or costs may be higher than expected which may result in the Company requiring additional funding.
Regulatory Risks
The Medicsight CAD system is subject to regulatory requirements in the United States, Europe, Japan, China and our other targeted markets. Necessary regulatory approvals may not be obtained or may be delayed. We may incur substantial additional cost in obtaining regulatory approvals for our products in our targeted markets.
Competitive Risks
There are a number of groups and organizations, such as software companies in the medical imaging field, MDCT scanner manufacturers, screening companies and other healthcare providers that may develop a competitive offering to the Medicsight CAD products and Medicexchange. In addition these competitors may have significantly greater resources than the Company. We cannot make any assurance that they will not attempt to develop such offerings, that they will not be successful in developing such offerings or that any offerings they do develop will not have a competitive edge over Medicsight CAD products and Medicexchange.
27
Financial Risk
The Company has incurred significant operating losses since inception and has just commenced generating revenues from continuing operations. As a result, the Company has generated negative cash flows from operations and has an accumulated deficit at September 30, 2007. The Company is operating in a developing industry based on new technology and its primary source of funds to date has been through the issuance of securities and borrowed funds. While the Company is optimistic and believes appropriate actions are being taken, there can be no assurance that managements efforts will be successful or that the products the Company develops and markets will be accepted by consumers.
Corporate Structure
The Companys corporate structure may make it more difficult or costly to take certain actions. The Company conducts its business through: (a) Medicsight PLC, a U.K. public company which is 55% owned by the Company, and through Medicsight PLCs subsidiaries in the United Kingdom, the United States, Japan and Gibraltar and; (b) through the Medicexchange subsidiaries, which the Company holdings range between 73% and 90%. Although the Company and Medicsight PLC and Medicexchange PLC share some directors and management, they are required to comply with corporate governance and other laws and rules applicable to public companies in the United Kingdom and the United States. Should the Company propose to take any action, such as a transfer or allocation of assets or liabilities between the Company its subsidiaries, the Company would have to take into consideration the potentially conflicting interests of the Companys stockholders and the minority stockholders. This may deter the Company from taking such actions that might otherwise be in the best interest of the Company or cause the Company to incur additional costs in taking such actions. The subsidiary companies would not be able to pay dividends or make other distributions of profits or assets to the Company without making pro rata payments or distributions to the respective minority stockholders. Although neither the subsidiary companies nor the Company has plans to pay dividends or make distributions to its shareholders, the Companys corporate structure may deter its subsidiaries from doing so in the future.
The protection of our intellectual property may be uncertain, and we may face possible claims of others.
Although we have received patents and have filed patent applications with respect to certain aspects of our technology, we generally do not rely on patent protection with respect to our products and technologies. Instead, we rely primarily on a combination of trade secret and copyright law, employee and third-party nondisclosure agreements and other protective measures to protect intellectual property rights pertaining to our products and technologies. Such measures may not provide meaningful protection of our trade secrets, know-how or other intellectual property in the event of any unauthorized use, misappropriation or disclosure. Others may independently develop similar technologies or duplicate our technologies. In addition, to the extent that we apply for any patents, such applications may not result in issued patents or, if issued, such patents may not be valid or of value. Third parties could, in the future, assert infringement or misappropriation claims against us with respect to our current or future products and technologies, or we may need to assert claims of infringement against third parties. Any infringement or misappropriation claim by us or against us could place significant strain on our financial resources, divert managements attention from our business and harm our reputation. The costs of prosecuting or defending an intellectual property claim could be substantial and could adversely affect our business, even if we are ultimately successful in prosecuting or defending any such claims. If our products or technologies are found to infringe the rights of a third party, we could be required to pay significant damages or license fees or cease production, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business.
If we fail to attract and retain qualified personnel, our business would be harmed.
We expect to rapidly expand our operations and grow our sales, research and development and administrative operations. This expansion is expected to place a significant strain on our management and will require hiring a significant number of qualified personnel. Accordingly, recruiting and retaining such personnel in the future will be critical to our success. There is intense competition from other companies, research and academic institutions, government entities and other organizations for qualified personnel in the areas of our activities. If we fail to identify, attract, retain and motivate these highly skilled personnel, we may be unable to continue our marketing and development activities.
If we do not effectively manage changes in our business, these changes could place a significant strain on our management and operations and, as a result, our business might not succeed.
Our ability to grow successfully requires an effective planning and management process. The expansion and growth of our business could place a significant strain on our management systems, infrastructure and other resources. To manage our growth successfully, we must continue to improve and expand our systems and infrastructure in a timely and efficient manner. Our controls, systems, procedures and resources may not be adequate to support a changing and growing company. If our management fails to respond effectively to changes and growth in our business, including acquisitions, such failure could have a material adverse effect on our business.
Foreign Exchange Risks
As the Companys main operating currency is UK sterling (£) and its financial statements are reported in US Dollars, the Companys assets and liabilities and its results of operations are affected by movements in the $:£ exchange rate.
28
Other Risks
The Companys ability to deliver its software could be hindered by risks such as the loss of key personnel or the patents and trademarks being successfully challenged or credit facilities being reduced or terminated by lenders.
Internal Controls
Failure to achieve and maintain effective internal controls in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 could have a material adverse effect on our business and operating results. In addition, as a consequence of such failure, current and potential stockholders could lose confidence in our financial reporting, which could have an adverse effect on our stock price.
Effective internal controls are necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and effectively prevent fraud. If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, we could be subject to regulatory action or other litigation and our operating results could be harmed.
Commencing with our fiscal year ending December 31, 2007, we will be required to document and test our internal control procedures in order to satisfy the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, which requires our management to annually assess the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting, and our independent registered public accounting firm to report on these assessments.
During the course of our testing, we may identify deficiencies which we may not be able to remediate in time to meet the deadline imposed by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act for compliance with the requirements of Section 404. In addition, if we fail to maintain the adequacy of our internal accounting controls, as such standards are modified, supplemented or amended from time to time, we may not be able to ensure that we can conclude on an ongoing basis that we have effective internal controls over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404. Failure to achieve and maintain an effective internal control environment could cause us to face regulatory action and also cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, either of which could have an adverse effect on our stock price.
