NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(in thousands, except share and per share amounts)

(unaudited)

 

1. Organization, basis of presentation and liquidity

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of MGT Capital Investments 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, have been included. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any subsequent quarter or for the year ending December 31, 2008. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007.  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 (“MGT”, “we”, “the Company”, “us”) is a technology holding company in the global Healthcare Information Technology sector (“HCIT”).  We currently have controlling interests in our two main operating subsidiaries: Medicsight PLC (“Medicsight”) and Medicexchange PLC (“Medicexchange”).

 

·       Medicsight and its wholly owned subsidiaries 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 which analyze Computer Tomography (“CT”) scans for the early detection and measurement of colorectal polyps and lung lesions.  The Company holds 86 million shares (55%) of the 155 million shares issued capital of Medicsight.

 

·       Medicexchange and its majority owned subsidiaries provide 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 clinical papers, training materials and content gives these professionals access to information and products that they otherwise would have difficulty accessing.  The Company holds 22.5 million shares (73%) of the 30.8 million issued share capital of Medicexchange.  Medicexchange’s shares are not publicly traded.

 

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 $229,664 at September 30, 2008. 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. While the Company is optimistic and believes appropriate actions are being taken, there can be no assurance that management’s efforts will be successful or that the products the Company develops and markets will be accepted by consumers.

 

The Company has reconsidered its initial accounting treatment as it relates to minority interest transactions.  See footnote 11 for further discussion.

 

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Medicsight

 

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 Company’s 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.

 

8



Table of Contents

 

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, and all other revenue recognition criteria are met, license revenue from Resellers is recognized upon shipment of its product to vendors (“sell-in basis”).

 

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 Company’s services are not considered essential to the functionality of other elements of the arrangement.

 

Services — Revenue from maintenance and support arrangements is deferred and recognized ratably 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 of September 30, 2008 we recorded $8 of deferred revenue relating to support and maintenance services, compared with $3 at December 31, 2007.

 

Medicexchange

 

We recognize revenue 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 of September 30, 2008 we recorded $34 of deferred revenue relating to Medicexchange, compared with $17 at December 31, 2007.

 

Research and development

 

Costs incurred in connection with the development of software products that are intended for sale are accounted for in accordance with SFAS 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 un-amortized 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 no such expenditures needed to be capitalized because the Company did not incur any material software production costs and all such costs incurred represent research and development costs. The Company’s research and development costs are comprised of staff cost, consultancy costs and research and development software costs for the Medicsight CAD system.

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and September 30, 2007 the Company expended $2,785 and $1,576 respectively, for research and development expenses for Medicsight CAD and its products.

3. Principal activities

 

MGT Capital Investments, Inc (“MGT”) is a technology holding company in the global Healthcare Information Technology sector (“HCIT”).  We currently have a controlling interest in two companies: Medicsight and Medicexchange.

 

Medicsight

 

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 which analyze Computer Tomography (“CT”) scans for the early detection and measurement of colorectal polyps and lung lesions.

 

MGT holds 86 million (55%) of the 155 million issued share capital of Medicsight as of September 30, 2008.  On September 30, 2008, (the third quarter’s last trading day), Medicsight shares closed at a price of £0.41 ($0.74), valuing MGT’s 86 million shares at $64,064.

 

Medicexchange

 

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 clinical papers, training materials and content gives these professionals access to information and products that they otherwise would have difficulty accessing.

 

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.  The Medicexchange portal was launched in November 2006, and is a leading medical imaging news and product information provider in the following sectors: Breast, Cardiology, Abdominal-Pelvic, Neurology, Thoracic and Musculoskeletal.

 

MGT holds 22.5 million shares (73%) of the 30.8 million issued share capital of Medicexchange.  Medicexchange’s shares are not publicly traded.

 

Investments at Cost

 

We account for investments in non-marketable securities under the cost method of accounting where we own less than a 20% interest in each of the companies, and we do not have significant influence over the entity. We continually review each investment to assess for other-than-temporary decreases in value.

 

In 2000, MGT invested in Eurindia PLC (“Eurindia”), a Gibraltar company that invested in IT start-up companies.  MGT has a 6% holding in Eurindia and accounts for this investment on a cost basis.  Eurindia has advised us that they intend to pay an additional dividend and then liquidate the company late in 2008 or early in 2009.

 

In 2007, the Company invested $960 in C preference shares of XShares Group LLC, a pre-IPO investment advisor that creates, issues and supports exchange traded funds (ETFs) with a particular healthcare speciality. In the nine month period ended September 30, 2008 the Company invested an additional $960 in shares of XShares Group LLC bringing the total invested to $1,920. We account for these investments on a cost basis as our total holdings are less than 20%.

 

Marketable securities

 

Investments in marketable securities consisting of HipCricket Inc. and a fund managed by Bank Sarasin & Company Limited as of September 30, were as follows:

9. Segment reporting

 

Under SFAS No. 131, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information, operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker, or decision-making group in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance.  Our chief operating decision-making group is composed of the Chief Executive Officer and members of senior management.  Our reportable operating segments are Medicsight and Medicexchange.

 

The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies.  We evaluate performance of our operating segments based on revenue and operating income (loss).

 

Medicsight listed on the AIM Market of the London Stock Exchange on June 21, 2007.  AIM listing rules require Medicsight to publish results under International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) in UK Sterling (“GBP”).

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.

During the quarter ended September 30, 2008, the Company completed an analysis of its accounting for the  sale of subsidiary shares.  Specifically, in December 2006, Medicsight PLC sold 14.0 million shares for approximately $12,379 net of fees, to unrelated third parties.  Based upon the Company’s interpretation of SAB No. 51, Topic 5-H no gain or loss was recognized since this transaction was part of a broader corporate reorganization, as defined, and therefore this amount was originally recorded as minority interest.

 

During June 2007 the Company sold 11.7 million Medicsight shares to a minority investor.  No gain was recognized on the sale and the proceeds were originally apportioned between minority interest and additional paid in capital.

 

Also in June 2007 Medicsight sold 29.1 million shares in an IPO for approximately $61,019 net of fees.  Accordingly, no gain was recognized on this sale and the proceeds were originally recorded as minority interest.

 

In August 2006, as part of the capitalization of Medicexchange, $9,798 of the capital received was originally recorded as minority interest.

 

The Company has reconsidered its initial accounting interpretation of SAB No. 51, Topic 5-H and other accounting guidance with respect to these transactions and has concluded that the change in the Company’s investment in Medicsight should be reflected as a capital transaction.  The change in the Company’s investment in Medicsight as a result of the two private placements is approximately $10,104, and $14,820 respectively, and the change related to the issuance of shares in an IPO is approximately $34,061.  The change related to the capitalization of Medicexchange is $7,147.  Accordingly the Company has reduced minority interest by approximately $66,132 and has increased additional paid in capital by the same amount.

 

The reclassification from minority interest to additional paid in capital had no effect on the Company’s assets, liabilities, operating result, earnings per share or cash flows from operations.

12. Acquisition of Maydeal.com

 

On April 3, 2008, through our subsidiary Medicexchange, we acquired Maydeal.com, a Chinese web business that offers an online portal for radiologists in China.  The acquisition was accounted for under purchase accounting and, accordingly, the assets and liabilities acquired were recorded at their estimated fair values at the date of acquisition and the results of operations have been included in the consolidated statement of operations since the day of acquisition.

 

We acquired the trade and assets of Shanghai Shenjie Digital Technology Co. Limited, and the domain name, Maydeal.com.  The total purchase price was $440 of which $220 has been paid and the remaining $220 is deferred and will be paid on completion of defined milestones.  This $220 is classified in accounts payable on the balance sheet.  The allocation of the purchase price is as follows:

 

Net assets acquired

 

$

44

 

Intangible asset (domain name)

 

396

 

Total

 

$

440

 

 

We have not recognized any goodwill on the acquisition, as we estimate that we purchased the assets and domain name at their fair values.

 

The domain name is subject to amortization and will be expensed, using the straight-line method, over 36 months.  The net assets acquired relate to receivables and some equipment.  We have recognized these assets at their net asset value as we believe there is no material difference to fair value.

 

13. Related Party Transactions

 

Tim Paterson-Brown is a Non-executive Director of Accsys Technologies PLC, which has a subsidiary company Titan Wood Limited. Titan Wood Limited rents space in 66 Hammersmith Road. In the nine month period ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 respectively, $79 and $172 of office related costs were recharged to Titan Wood Limited. At September 30, 2008 there was a balance receivable from Titan Wood Limited of $10 of which $10 remains unpaid as of November 10, 2008. This is payable within 30 days under the terms of the invoice.

On August 25, 2006 we executed a 10 year agreement with Pirbright Holdings Limited, to lease 8,787 square feet of office space at the Kensington Centre, 66 Hammersmith Road, London W14 8UD, UK, and simultaneously vacated our previous corporate office (46 Berkeley Square, London W1J 5AT, UK).

 

Under this new lease agreement our UK property rent, services and related costs will be approximately £330 ($675) per annum, paid quarterly in advance.  We have the right to terminate this agreement on the expiry of the fifth year of the lease.  Our annual rent is subject to upward only review on August 24, 2011.

 

We have two 10-month rent-free periods: the first commencing August 25, 2006; the second commencing August 25, 2011.  We have accounted for this lease as an operating lease and have accounted for the lease rental expenses on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease.

 

The following is a schedule of the future minimum rental payments required under operating leases that have initial or remaining non-cancellable terms in excess of one year:

17. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In September 2006 the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS No. 157”) which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 applies to other accounting standards that require or permit fair value measurements. Accordingly, it does not require any new fair value measurement. SFAS No. 157, as issued, was effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. On February 12, 2008 the FASB issued FSP FAS No. 157-2, “Effective Dates of FASB Statement no. 157”, which delays the effective date of SFAS No. 157 for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008 for all non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis. We do not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 157 to have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

 

In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141(R) “Business Combinations” (SFAS 141(R)). This Statement retains the fundamental requirements in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141 “Business Combinations”, that the acquisition method of accounting, previously known as the purchase method, be used for all business combinations and for an acquirer to be identified for each business combination. SFAS 141(R) establishes principles and requirements for how the acquirer recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree; recognizes and measures the goodwill acquired in the business combination or a gain from a bargain purchase; and determines what information to disclose to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination. SFAS 141(R) requires contingent consideration to be recognized at its fair value on the acquisition date and, for certain arrangements, changes in fair value to be recognized in earnings until settled. SFAS 141(R) also requires acquisition-related transaction and restructuring costs to be expensed rather than treated as part of the cost of the acquisition. The provisions for SFAS 141(R) are effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2009. SFAS 141(R) will be applied prospectively and early adoption is prohibited. We do not expect the adoption of SFAS 141(R) to have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

 

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements”, an amendment of ARB No. 51, which will become effective for the Company January 1, 2009, with retroactive adoption of the Statement’s presentation and disclosure requirements for existing minority interests. This standard will require ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties other than the parent to be presented within the equity section of the consolidated balance sheet but separate from the parent’s equity. It will also require the amount of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and the noncontrolling interest to be clearly identified and presented on the face of the consolidated income statement. Certain changes in a parent’s ownership interest are to be accounted for as equity transactions and when a subsidiary is deconsolidated, any noncontrolling equity investment in the former subsidiary is to be initially measured at fair value. We are currently evaluating the impact the adoption of SFAS No. 160 will have on our consolidated financial position and results of operations.

 

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities - An Amendment of FASB Statement No. 133” (“SFAS No. 161”), which amends and expands the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”, to require qualitative disclosure about objectives and strategies in using derivatives, quantitative disclosures about fair value amounts of gains and losses on derivative instruments, and disclosures about the underlying credit-risk-related contingent features in derivative agreements. SFAS No. 161 is intended to improve financial reporting by requiring transparency about the location and amounts of derivative instruments in an entity’s financial statements; how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under SFAS No. 133 and how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect its financial position, financial performance and cash flows. SFAS No. 161 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact, if any, the adoption of SFAS No. 161 may have on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

          In April 2008, the FASB issued Staff Position FSP 142-3, “Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets” (FSP 142-3). FSP 142-3 amends the factors that should be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under FASB Statement No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.” FSP 142-3 is effective for financial

statements issued after December 15, 2008. The Company does not expect the adoption of FSP 142-3 to have a material effect on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

In May 2008 the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles” (“SFAS No. 162”), which identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles used in the preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States.  The FASB believes that the GAAP hierarchy should be directed to entities because it is the entity (not its auditor) that is responsible for selecting accounting principles for financial statements that are presented in conformity with GAAP. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 162 to have a material effect on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

In May 2008 the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. APB 14-1, “Accounting for Convertible Debt Instruments That May Be Settled in Cash upon Conversion (including Partial Cash Settlement)” (“APB 14-1”). APB 14-1 requires that issuers of certain convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash upon conversion to separately account for the liability and equity components in a manner that will reflect the entity’s nonconvertible debt borrowing rate when interest cost is recognized in subsequent periods.  The accounting for these types of instruments under APB 14-1 is intended to appropriately reflect the underlying economics by capturing the value of the conversion options as borrowing costs; therefore, recognizing their potential dilutive effects on earnings per share. The effective date of APB 14-1 is for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2008 and does not permit earlier application. However, the transition guidance requires retrospective application to all periods presented and does not grandfather existing instruments.  The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact, if any, the adoption of APB 14-1 may have on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

In June 2008 the FASB issued FASB Staff Position EITF 03-6-1, “Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions are Participating Securities” (“EITF 03-6-1”). EITF 03-6-1 applies to the calculation of earnings per share for share-based payment awards with rights to dividends or dividend equivalents under Statement No. 128, Earnings Per Share. Unvested share-based payment awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents will be considered participating securities and will be included in the computation of earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method. The effective date of EITF 03-6-1 is for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and all interim periods within those years. Early adoption is not permitted. Once effective, all prior period earnings per share data presented will be adjusted retrospectively.  The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact, if any, the adoption of EITF 03-6-1 may have on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

On October 10, 2008 the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. FAS 157-3 “Determining the Fair Value of a Financial Asset When the Market for That Asset Is Not Active”.  FAS 157-3 clarifies the application of FASB Statement No. 157, Fair Value Measurements , in a market that is not active and provides an example to illustrate key considerations in determining the fair value of a financial asset when the market for that financial asset is not active.  This FSP was effective upon issuance, including prior periods for which financial statements had not been issued.  FASB 157-3 did not have a material effect on our condensed financial statements.

This report contains forward-looking statements made in reliance upon the safe harbor provisions of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.  These statements may be identified by the use of words such as “anticipate”, “estimates”, “should”, “expect”, “guidance”, “project”, “intend”, “plan”, “believe” and other words and terms of similar meaning, in connection with any discussion of our financial statements, business, results of operations, liquidity and future operating or financial performance.  Please also refer to our “Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements” at the front of this Form.

 

MGT is a technology holding company in the global Healthcare Information Technology market.  We have two subsidiaries, Medicsight and Medicexchange:

 

Medicsight is a medical imaging software development company developing enterprise-wide Computer-Aided Detection (CAD) software which analyzes 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 management’s view that early detection of colon cancer or lung cancer leads to an improved life expectancy.

 

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.  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.

 

Medicsight

 

In February 2008, Medicsight signed a Preliminary Agreement with the System Integration (PACS) division of Toshiba Medical Systems (“Toshiba”) for the resale of MedicRead Colon and ColonCAD throughout Japan.  Toshiba is a leading global provider of diagnostic medical imaging systems and comprehensive medical solutions including CT.  Under the Preliminary Agreement, Toshiba will

work with the Company to obtain Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare (MHLW) regulatory approval in Japan and to jointly conduct market development initiatives.

 

In April 2008  Medicsight signed a Partnership Agreement with INFINITT Company Limited (“Infinitt”). Infinitt has agreed to integrate Medicsight ColonCAD into its solution for global distribution. As well as being South Korea’s leading PACS supplier, Infinitt also has a growing presence in both the USA and Japan, with a global network of offices, partners and sales channel representatives in 20 countries.

 

In the nine months ended September 30, 2008 Medicsight was granted regulatory approval for MedicRead Colon from the Chinese State Food and Drug Administration (SFDA) and the Brazilian National Health Surveillance Agency (ANVISA). In July the Company received Brazilian ANVISA regulatory approval for its ColonCAD product.

 

Medicsight has engaged a team of experts to help prepare the Company’s application to secure US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) clearance. The Company is confident that it will shortly be in a position to file a 510(k) submission for review by the FDA.

 

In May 2008 Medicsight signed an exclusive CAD Clinical Research Agreement with leading American CT Colonography (CTC) radiologists Dr Perry Pickhardt and Dr David Kim of the University of Wisconsin Medical School, USA. In 2004 Dr Pickhardt’s Wisconsin group was the first to establish a third-party reimbursed CTC colorectal cancer screening programme. Since then they have both played an instrumental role in building the clinical evidence base that has proven the comparable effectiveness of CTC for the detection of colorectal neoplasia within an asymptomatic population in relation to optical colonoscopy. Their specialist advice and experience of CTC practice will enhance the clinical validation of Medicsight’s ColonCAD products set in the context of the world’s largest healthcare market.

 

The Medicsight product roadmap continues in line with management expectations.  Medicsight is continuing to improve the performance of its ColonCAD product with a new version planned for 2009.  In addition, the company has initiated the development of a CO2 insufflation device for CTC (MedicCO2lon) and is exploring new image processing and analysis tools for optical colonoscopy. These additions will bolster the existing CTC portfolio.

 

Revenues in the nine months ended September 30, 2008 were $113, compared to $12 in the nine months ended September 30, 2007.

 

Medicexchange

 

On April 3, 2008, through our subsidiary Medicexchange, we acquired Maydeal.com, a Chinese web business that offers an online portal for radiologists in China.  The acquisition was accounted for under purchase accounting and, accordingly, the assets and liabilities acquired were recorded at their estimated fair values at the date of acquisition and the results of operations have been included in the consolidated statement of operations since the day of acquisition.

 

In September 2008 we made the decision to focus Medicexchange’s operations in the USA.  Accordingly, staff numbers in London have been reduced.  There is no significant change to Medicexchange’s business model.

 

Revenues in the nine months ended September 30, 2008 were $144, compared to $nil in the nine months ended September 30, 2007.

 

MGT

 

In the first quarter of 2008, MGT’s Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to 6,350,000 shares of its common stock.  At September 30, 2008 the Company had repurchased 6,349,793 shares.

 

In March and April 2008, MGT purchased 1,000,000 ordinary shares of its majority-owned subsidiary Medicsight at an average price of £0.63 ($1.26) per share.  As of September 30, 2008 MGT holds 86,000,000 ordinary shares of Medicsight, representing 55% of the issued share capital.

 

General

 

MGT was originally incorporated as a Utah corporation in 1977 and was re-incorporated in Delaware in 2000.  At September 30, 2008 the Company’s authorized share capital was 75,000,000 shares of common stock, par value of $0.001.

 

At September 30, 2008 the Company had issued 38,900,383 shares of common stock, of which 32,550,590 are outstanding.

 

As of September 30, 2008 the Company and its subsidiaries had 100 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.

 

Our principal executive office is located at Kensington Centre, 66 Hammersmith Road, London W14 8UD, United Kingdom, telephone 011-44-207-605-1151, facsimile 011-44-207-605-1171.

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, 2008 as compared to our previous disclosures in Management’s 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, 2007.

 

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; certain judgments, however, 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.

 

Stock Based Compensation

 

We have granted employee stock options in MGT and both Medicsight and Medicexchange (our principal 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.

 

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 employee’s likely stock option exercises, the expected volatility, and a comparison to relevant peer group data.

 

At the time of the respective stock options being granted, the shares underlying the awarded stock options were not publicly traded shares in some instances.  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 exposure to market rate risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to our investment portfolio.  We place our investments in a mixture of cash deposits and 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.

 

Our operating costs in Fiscal 2007 were predominantly in UK sterling. We do not foresee any change in Fiscal 2008 or Fiscal 2009. A ten percent increase or decline in the US dollar exchange rate against UK sterling would have created an increase or decline in our operating costs in the nine months to September 30, 2008 of approximately $1,430.

At the end of each reporting period, expenses of the subsidiaries are converted into US dollars using the average currency rate in effect for the period and assets and liabilities are converted into US 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 Company’s “disclosure controls and procedures” as of September 30, 2008.  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 Commission’s 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 Company’s 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, 2008.  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, 2008 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, 2008 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.

Item 1.                            Legal Proceedings

 

There are currently no pending legal proceedings.

 

Item 1A.                         Risk Factors

 

Discussion of our business and operations included in this quarterly 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 MGT 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.

 

MGT has had only a limited operating history and no revenues from its continuing operations upon which an evaluation of its prospects can be made. MGT’s prospects must be considered keeping in mind the risks, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered in the establishment of a new business in a constantly changing industry. There can be no assurance that MGT will be able to achieve profitable operations in the foreseeable future or at all.

 

Current economic conditions might cause a decline in spending that could affect our business and financial performance.  This might affect the growth in revenue that we expect, as well as the recoverability of assets such as our marketable securities and the investments that we hold at cost.

 

MGT has identified a number of specific risk areas that may affect MGT’s 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 Risk:  The market for the Medicsight CAD products and Medicexchange.com 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 anticipate. Revenues from Medicsight CAD and Medicexchange.com may be delayed or costs may be higher than anticipated 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 Risk: 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.com.  In addition these competitors may have significantly greater resources than MGT. 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.com.

 

Financial Risk: MGT has incurred significant operating losses since inception and has recently commenced generating revenues from operations. As a result, MGT has generated negative cash flows from operations and has an accumulated deficit at September 30, 2008. MGT 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 MGT is optimistic and believes appropriate actions are being taken, there can be no assurance that management’s efforts will be successful or that the products MGT develops and markets will be accepted by consumers.

 

Corporate Structure: MGT’s corporate structure may make it more difficult or costly to take certain actions. MGT conducts its business through: (a) Medicsight, a UK public company which is 55% owned by the Company, and through Medicsight’s subsidiaries in the United Kingdom, the United States, Japan and Gibraltar and; (b) the Medicexchange subsidiaries, in which MGT’s holdings range between 73% and 100%.  Although MGT, Medicsight and Medicexchange 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 MGT propose to take any action, such as a transfer or allocation of assets or liabilities between MGT and its subsidiaries, MGT would have to take into

consideration the potentially conflicting interests of MGT’s stockholders and the minority stockholders.  This may deter MGT from taking such actions that might otherwise be in the best interest of MGT or cause MGT 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 MGT without making pro-rata payments or distributions to the respective minority stockholders.  Although neither the subsidiary companies nor MGT has plans to pay dividends or make distributions to its shareholders, MGT’s 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 management’s 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 MGT’s main operating currency is UK sterling (£) and its financial statements are reported in US dollars, MGT’s assets and liabilities and its results of operations are affected by movements in the $:£ exchange rate.

 

Other Risks: MGT’s 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.

 

Liquidity risk:  MGT holds a number of investments held at both at market value and at cost.  There is a risk that we may not be able to swiftly realise these investments at the fair value or cost at which they are recorded in our financial statements.

 

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 prevent 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 were 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.

 

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.
