PART I
Item 1 | Business |
MGT Capital Investments, Inc. (“MGT”, “the Company”, “the Group”, “we”, “us”) is a holding company. We currently have a controlling interest in Medicsight ltd (“Medicsight”) and its subsidiaries Medicsight, Inc., Medicsight KK (Japan), Medicsight Pty Limited (Australia), Medicsight FZE (UAE), MedicEndo Limited (UAE), MedicCO2lon Limited (UAE) and Medicsight UK Limited (UK). On March 29, 2011 we disposed of our 49% holding in Moneygate Group Limited (“Moneygate”). On March 31, 2010 we disposed of our controlling interest in Medicexchange Limited (“Medicexchange”) and various other investments. We also have wholly owned subsidiaries MGT Capital Investments (UK) Limited, MGT Investments (Gibraltar) Limited, and Medicsight Nominees Limited.
· | Medicsight and its wholly owned subsidiaries is a medical technology company focusing on medical imaging software development and medical hardware devices. The Company develops and commercializes Computer-Aided Detection (“CAD”) applications which analyze Computer Tomography (“CT”) scans to assist radiologists in the early detection and measurement of colorectal polyps. The Company has also developed an automated carbon dioxide insufflation device (MedicCO2LON) which it commercializes through a global distributor. The Company holds (53.85%) of the issued share capital of Medicsight. |
· | On January 31, 2011, we entered into a Sale and Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Committed Capital Nominees Limited (“Committed”). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, Committed agreed to purchase: (i) all 9,607,843 shares of Moneygate which MGT owned, for consideration of £0.096 ($0.154); and (ii) to novate the benefit of a Facility Agreement dated November 18, 2010, between the Company and Moneygate, for consideration of £250 ($401), resulting in a gain on sale of £51 ($81). |
The Company continues to explore all strategic alternatives with respect to its majority interest in Medicsight Limited.
The Company is also analyzing potential acquisition opportunities in healthcare marketing and technology, as well as various intellectual property assets. There can be no assurance that any acquisitions will occur at all, or that any such acquisitions will be accretive to earnings, book value and other financial metrics, or that any such acquisitions will generate positive returns for Company shareholders. Furthermore, it is contemplated that any acquisitions may require the Company to raise additional capital; such capital may not be available on terms acceptable to the Company, if at all.
Product development
ColonCAD
Medicsight’s core technology is the proprietary ColonCAD™ algorithm that is integrated (using application protocol interface (“API”) technology) into visualization workstations for radiologists to use when reviewing a patient’s colon CT scan data.
The CAD algorithm assists the radiologist as they search for polyps in the CT scan image data. The radiologist uses the visualization software to review the patient’s CT scan images on the screen and searches for polyps (potentially pre-cancerous lesions on the wall of the colon). After a full review, the radiologist then activates the Medicsight ColonCAD™ software, which immediately displays “CAD marks” on the images, drawing the radiologist’s attention to potential polyps and other regions of interest. The radiologist then assesses each marked region in order to make the final decision as to the presence or absence of a polyp.
Clinical studies have demonstrated that radiologists assisted by Medicsight’s ColonCAD™ technology have a significantly higher sensitivity for the detection of patients with polyps in CT colonography compared to unassisted reading (i.e. traditional reading without the use of ColonCAD™).
Medicsight launched ColonCAD 4.0 in Europe in March 2009. This release significantly reduced the number of false-positive CAD marks presented to a radiologist reviewing a patient data set. In early 2011, Medicsight further developed the ColonCAD technology by releasing an enhanced version (ColonCAD 4.1) in Europe. In the United States, Medicsight received marketing clearance from the FDA in May 2011 for an earlier version of ColonCAD (v. 3.5). Further improvements in sensitivity and reduction of false-positive CAD marks have been in development; however there are no current plans to pursue regulatory approvals or commercialization of these newer versions.
In addition to currently approved products, Medicsight is continuing development of prone and supine registration technology. Currently clinicians review two data sets for each patient, one in each body position of prone and supine. This registration project aims to “register” the two data sets, including polyps and other regions of interest into one patient data set, thereby reducing clinical review time.
4 |
Medicsight’s ColonCAD™ has been developed and validated using a large database of CT scans from hospitals around the world and has been assessed in many clinical studies, the results of which have been published in peer-reviewed publications and presented at leading radiology conferences.
MedicCO2LON
In addition to the computer aided detection software applications, Medicsight has developed an automated CO2 insufflation device called MedicCO2LON.
A patient undergoing a CT colon scan requires the colon to be insufflated (distended) with either CO2 gas or room air administered prior to the acquisition of their CT colonography images. MedicCO2LON is designed to provide good quality insufflation, which is essential for the acquisition of high quality images from the CT colonography examination.
Intellectual Property
Medicsight continues to develop its intellectual property portfolio to protect the core technology in its CAD and other products. During 2011, no patents were granted. Medicsight currently has 12 patents granted and 25 pending in various territories.
Regulatory approvals and submissions
US Food and Drug Administration clearance
In November 2008, Medicsight submitted the ColonCAD™ 510(k) application to the Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) for clearance in the U.S. In December 2008, we received an Additional Information (“AI”) letter from the FDA and submitted our response to the FDA’s inquires in March 2009. In May 2011, Medicsight received 510(k) marketing clearance by the FDA for its ColonCAD 3.5 software. This clearance followed 30 months of formal and informal meetings and discussions with the FDA, and included the submission of data to satisfy FDA requests for additional information.
Other regulatory territories
In 2010, we received regulatory approval of MedicRead 3.0 (our visualization workstation which includes version 4.0 of the Medicsight ColonCAD API) from the Chinese State Food and Drug Administration (“SFDA”).
In March 2011 version 4.1 of the Medicsight ColonCAD API received the CE Mark in Europe, which certifies that the product has met European Union health, safety, and environmental standards.
In July 2011, Medicsight was informally informed by the Japanese Ministry of Health Labor and Welfare (“MHLW”) that several statistical data errors were encountered in their review of the application for approval of its MedicRead software for use in CT Colonography procedures. Following informal guidance from MHLW in August 2011, the Company decided to withdraw the current submission and is assessing the next course of action.
MedicCO2LON
In 2010 our MedicCO2LON automated CO2 insufflation device received the CE Mark in Europe.
In partnership with our distribution partner in 2010 we also submitted MedicCO2LON to the MHLW regulatory authorities in Japan for approval. We are currently awaiting a decision from MHLW.
Clinical Activity
In 2011, Scientific presentations of Medicsight’s CAD research were made at the annual European Congress of Radiology the 21th Annual Meeting of the European Society of Gastrointestinal and Abdominal Radiology “ESGAR”, and the annual Radiological Society of North America “RSNA” conference.
In addition, Medicsight sponsored of a number of international CT colonography training workshops. Medicsight’s current clinical development activities are very limited.
5 |
Commercial progress
Medicsight sells its ColonCad software through distribution partnerships with global advanced medical visualization companies, Picture Achieving and Communication System (“PACS”), suppliers and other Original Equipment Manufacturers (“OEM”).
Medicsight currently has partnership agreements with Vital Images, Inc. (acquired by Toshiba in 2011), TeraRecon Inc., Viatronix Inc., Toshiba Medical Visualization Systems (previously Barco NV), Infinitt, Qi Systems (formerly Ziosoft Inc.), Intrasense SAS, and Alma IT Systems.
We support our existing partners with systems integration and to increase market awareness. In addition we continue to seek new partners to bring the product to market.
In 2010, we signed a global distribution agreement with Medrad Inc. for our MedicCO2LON insufflation device and began commercial sales. Insufflators are manufactured by a third party under contract from Medicsight and are generally produced upon receipt of purchase orders from Medrad.
Revenue and Growth Strategy
Revenues remain limited. Medicsight recorded revenues of $536 in 2011 compared to $540 in 2010. Medicsight ended 2011 with net assets of $3,409 including $3,123 of cash and short term deposits. At December 31, 2011 all of our liquid assets were held as short term cash balances, mainly in US Dollars. Post year end, we continue to hold our surplus cash on short term deposit.
As we rely totally on third parties to sell our products, the Company cannot accurately estimate ColonCAD license sales or MedicCO2LON device sales.
The Company continues to explore all strategic alternatives with respect to its majority interest in Medicsight Limited.
The Company is also analyzing potential acquisition opportunities in healthcare marketing and technology, as well as various intellectual property assets. There can be no assurance that any acquisitions will occur at all, or that any such acquisitions will be accretive to earnings, book value and other financial metrics, or that any such acquisitions will generate positive returns for Company shareholders. Furthermore, it is contemplated that any acquisitions may require the Company to raise capital; such capital may not be available on terms acceptable to the Company, if at all.
Competition
The Company faces many competitors ranging from large CT scanner manufacturers such as GE, Hitachi, Philips, Siemens and Toshiba to smaller medical imaging and visualization companies, in addition to other independent CAD software providers. Moreover, regulatory approvals received by competitors in the U.S. and Europe and the U.S. have intensified the competitive landscape over the past year.
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.
Three patents have been granted in the US covering aspects of Medicsight CAD technology. In addition, Medicsight has filed several 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 approximately 144 member countries) covering our core technologies and their applications.
Medicsight also has trademarked several business names in various jurisdictions. 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. We may be required to purchase licenses from sellers with prior rights in any country with no assurance that such rights will be available at a commercially acceptable cost.

Item 1A | Risk Factors |
Discussion of our business and operations included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K 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 our 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 any of the Company’s products or if any of the products are commercialized, that they will be profitable for the Company.
The Company has only had a limited operating history and has recently commenced generating revenue from operations upon which an evaluation of its prospects can be made. The Company’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 the Company will be able to achieve profitable operations in the foreseeable future if at all.
The Company has identified a number of specific risk areas that may affect the Company’s operations and results in the future:
Company specific risks
We may be unable to develop our existing or future technology.
Our Medicsight CAD system may not deliver the levels of accuracy and reliability needed to make it a successful product in the market place. Additionally, the development of such accuracy and reliability may be indefinitely delayed or may never be achieved. Failure to develop this or other technology could have an adverse material effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and future prospects.
The market for our technology may be slow to develop, if at all.
The market for the Medicsight CAD products 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 Medicsight CAD products or be slower to accept them than we anticipate. Revenues from Medicsight CAD may be delayed or costs may be higher than anticipated which may result in the Company requiring additional funding. Medicsight’s principal route to market is via commercial distribution partners. These arrangements are generally non-exclusive and have no guaranteed sales volumes or commitments. The partners may be slower to sell our products than anticipated. Any financial, operational or regulatory risks that affect our partners could also affect the sales of our products. In the current economic environment, hospitals and clinical purchasing budgets that are reliant on external debt finance may result in purchasing decisions being delayed. If any of these situations were to occur this could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and future prospects.
We may be slow to receive required regulatory approvals from respective government regulators, if we receive them at all.
The Medicsight CAD system is subject to regulatory requirements in the USA, 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. Any delays in obtaining the necessary regulatory approvals increase the risk that our competitors’ products are approved before our own. The failure to obtain these approvals on a timely basis and/or the associated costs could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and future prospects.
The medical imaging market we operate in is highly competitive.
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. 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 may develop will not have a competitive edge over Medicsight CAD products. With delayed regulatory approvals and/or disputed clinical claims we may not have a commercial or clinical advantage over competitors’ products. Should a superior offering come to market, this could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and future prospects.
8 |
We are a developing company with limited revenues from operations.
We have incurred significant operating losses since inception and have only recently commenced generating revenues from operations. As a result, we have generated negative cash flows from operations and have an accumulated deficit as of December 31, 2011. We are operating in a developing industry based on new technology and our primary source of funds to date has been through the issuance of securities and borrowed funds. There can be no assurance that management’s efforts will be successful or that the products we develop and market will be accepted by consumers. If our products are ultimately unsuccessful in the market, this could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and future prospects.
We face financial risks as we are a developing company.
We have incurred significant operating losses since inception and have limited revenue from operations. As a result, we have generated negative cash flows from operations and our cash balances continue to reduce. While we are optimistic and believe appropriate actions are being taken to mitigate this, there can be no assurance that attempts to reduce cash outflows will be successful and this could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations.
Our current corporate structure may place us in an unfavourable market position vis-à-vis our competitors.
MGT’s corporate structure may make it more difficult or costly to take certain actions. We conduct our business through Medicsight Ltd, a U.K. company which is 53.85% owned by MGT and through Medicsight’s subsidiaries in the U.K., the U.S., Japan and Gibraltar. Although MGT and Medicsight share some directors and management, they are required to comply with corporate governance and rules applicable to companies in the United Kingdom and the USA. 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 non-controlling stockholders of Medicsight. 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 non-controlling stockholders. Although neither the subsidiary nor MGT has plans to pay dividends or make distributions to its shareholders, MGT’s corporate structure may deter its subsidiary from doing so in the future. If at any point we are ultimately unable to resolve any of these conflicts, this could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and future prospects.
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 non-disclosure 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 a claim is brought against us, or we ultimately prove unsuccessful on the claims on our merits, this could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and future prospects.
We may fail to attract and retain qualified personnel.
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, and this could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and future prospects.
9 |
If we do not effectively manage changes in our business, these changes could place a significant strain on our management and operations.
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, this could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and future prospects.
We face risks arising from foreign currency exchange.
As our main operating currency is U.K. sterling and its financial statements are reported in U.S. dollars, MGT’s assets and liabilities and results of operations are affected by movements in the $:£ exchange rate. Should there be large or unexpected fluctuations in the $:£ exchange rate, this could have a material effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and future prospects. We currently do not engage in hedging activities to minimize the effect of adverse movements in the exchange rate.
General market risks
We may not be able to access credit.
We face the risk that we may not be able to access credit, either from lenders or suppliers, or have facilities reduced or terminated. Failure to access credit from any of these sources could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and future prospects.
Recent global economic trends could adversely affect our business, liquidity and financial results.
Recent global economic conditions, including disruption of financial markets, could adversely affect us, primarily through limiting our access to capital and disrupting our clients’ businesses. In addition, continuation or worsening of general market conditions in economies important to our businesses may adversely affect our clients’ level of spending and ability to obtain financing, leading to us being unable to generate the levels of sales that we require. Current and continued disruption of financial markets could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and future prospects.
We may not be able to maintain effective internal controls.
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 on-going 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 a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and future prospects.
Securities market risks
Our stock price and trading volume may be volatile, which could result in losses for our stockholders.
The equity markets may experience periods of volatility, which could result in highly variable and unpredictable pricing of equity securities. The market price of our common stock could change in ways that may or may not be related to our business, our industry or our operating performance and financial condition and could negatively affect our share price or result in fluctuations in the price or trading volume of our common stock. We cannot predict the potential impact of these periods of volatility on the price of our common stock. The Company cannot assure you that the market price of our common stock will not fluctuate or decline significantly in the future.
Current deficiency in the Listing Standards of the NYSE Amex Market.
The staff of NYSE-Amex LLC (the “Exchange”) has notified the Company that it is not in compliance with the following Exchange continued listing standards: Section 1003(a)(i) of the Company Guide, resulting from stockholders' equity on March 31, 2011 of less than $2.0 million and losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in two of its three most recent fiscal years; Section 1003(a)(ii) of the Company Guide with stockholders' equity of less than $4.0 million and losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in three of its four most recent fiscal years; and Section 1003(a)(iii) with stockholders' equity of less than $6.0 million and losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in its five most recent fiscal years.
10 |
On August 23, 2011, the Exchange accepted the Company’s plan of compliance submitted to the Exchange in response to the deficiency letter. The Exchange granted the Company an extension until December 8, 2012 to regain compliance with Sections 1003(a) (i)-(iii) of the Exchange’s Company Guide. The Company would have the right to appeal any such determination. However, there is no assurance of success throughout this process.
The Exchange further notified the Company that its common stock had fallen to a low trading price for a significant period of time and that the Company was therefore not in compliance with Section 1003 (f)(v) of the Company Guide. The Company was given until February 23, 2012 to comply with this Section. The Exchange noted that the Company could regain compliance by effectuating a reverse-split of its common stock prior to February 23, 2012. On February 17, 2012 the Company received notice from the staff of the Exchange that the Company was granted an extension until March 31, 2012 to comply with Section 1003 (f) (v) of the Exchange’s Company Guide. The Company plans to effectuate a reverse split of its common stock at a special meeting of the stockholders to be held on March 20, 2012. There can be no assurance that if approved by the Company’s stockholders and if effectuated by the Company’s board, that such reverse stock split will bring the Company into compliance with the Exchange’s listing standards.
On January 3, 2012, the Company was notified that it is not in noncompliance with Section 704 of the Company Guide in that it failed to hold an annual meeting of its stockholders during 2011 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010. The Company's plan of compliance detailing actions which it had taken, or intended to take, to regain compliance with the continued listing standards was accepted by the Exchange via letter dated January 26, 2012, granting the Company until July 3, 2012 to regain compliance with Section 704 of the Exchange’s Company Guide.
The Company will be subject to periodic review by Exchange staff during the extension period and prior to compliance with Sections 704, 1003(a)(i), (ii), (iii) and (f)(v) of the Exchange’s Company Guide. Failure to make progress consistent with the plans of compliance or to regain compliance with the continued listing standards by the end of the extension period could result in the Company being delisted from the NYSE AMEX LLC.
If our common stock is delisted from the NYSE Amex Market, the Company would be subject to the risks relating to penny stocks.
If our common stock were to be delisted from trading on the Exchange and the trading price of the common stock were below $5.00 per share on the date the common stock were delisted, trading in our common stock would also be subject to the requirements of certain rules promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). These rules require additional disclosure by broker-dealers in connection with any trades involving a stock defined as a "penny stock" and impose various sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell penny stocks to persons other than established customers and accredited investors, generally institutions. These additional requirements may discourage broker-dealers from effecting transactions in securities that are classified as penny stocks, which could severely limit the market price and liquidity of such securities and the ability of purchasers to sell such securities in the secondary market. A penny stock is defined generally as any non-exchange listed equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions.

Discovery of Potential Related Party Transactions
In July 2011, the Company became aware of certain alleged irregularities at the Company and Medicsight relating to the fiscal years 2010 and earlier. On July 11, 2011, the Company and Medicsight created special committees of their respective boards to investigate the alleged irregularities. The investigation is on-going and to date has uncovered potential related party transactions that were previously undisclosed. Based on the initial findings of the investigation, Medicsight’s CEO, Allan Rowley was suspended by the Board of Medicsight. Mr. Rowley subsequently tendered, and the board of directors accepted, his resignation on July 26, 2011 as CEO and Director of Medicsight. The Company has determined that despite the discovery of several transactions that would trigger out of period adjustments (“OPA”), when taken either individually or cumulatively, the potential OPA’s would be immaterial from both a qualitative or quantitative point of view, and the Company’s financial statements do not require restatement at this time. Management is confident that the Company’s financial statements will not require a material restatement as a result of any additional irregularities that may be uncovered in the future; however, no assurance can be made that the Company’s financial statements will not require restatement as a result of the discovery of additional irregularities. The Company cannot predict with certainty when the investigation will be completed.

Executive summary:
MGT is a holding company comprised of MGT, the parent company, and its wholly-owned subsidiaries: MGT Capital Investments (U.K.) Limited, MGT Investments (Gibraltar) Limited, and Medicsight Nominees Limited. In addition we also have a controlling interest in our operating subsidiary, Medicsight Limited, including its wholly owned subsidiaries.
Medicsight is a medical technology company focusing on medical imaging software development and medical hardware devices. Medicsight develops and commercializes enterprise-wide Computer-Aided Detection (“CAD”) applications which analyze Computer Tomography (“CT”) scans to assist radiologists in the early detection and measurement of colorectal polyps and lung lesions. The CAD software received a CE Mark in 2009, which allows for sales in the European Union. On May 19, 2011, Medicsight’s software also received clearance from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”.) Revenue is presently limited as Medicsight attempts to commercialize its recent U.S. approval. On December 31, 2011, the Company held 83.75 million shares (53.85%) of the 155.5 million issued share capital of Medicsight.
In late July 2011, Medicsight was informally informed by the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare (“MHLW”) that several statistical data errors were encountered in their review of the application for approval of its MedicRead software for use in CT Colonography procedures. Following informal guidance from MHLW, during August 2011, the Company decided to withdraw the current submission and is assessing the next course of action. In the meantime, the Board of Directors of Medicsight closed the Tokyo office as part of an overall program of expense reduction and corporate simplification. In addition to closing the Tokyo office, management of Medicsight has decided to close several other non-essential subsidiaries in Australia, China and the UAE citing the unjustifiably high legal, regulatory and accounting costs of maintaining such entities. However, in order to better exploit the recent FDA approval of ColonCAD, Medicsight has opened a U.S. subsidiary (Medicsight, Inc.) in New York. Medicsight has also developed an automated CO2 medical inflation device and associated disposable tubing (MedicCO2LON) that is being commercialized via a global distributor.
In March 2011, the Company disposed of its 49% holding in Moneygate Group Limited, a United Kingdom based firm of Independent Financial Advisors.
At the March 7, 2011 board meeting, the members of the Compensation and Nominations Committees approved the grant of 500,000 restricted shares of MGT common stock, with each independent director of the board receiving 100,000 restricted shares. The restricted shares vest one-third each six months from date of issue. The unvested shares are subject to forfeiture if the applicable director is not a director of the Company at the time the restricted shares are to vest.
On or about December 19, 2011, the Company was advised by NYSE-Amex (the “Exchange”) that approval of shareholders is required in order to allow the issuance and listing of Restricted Shares, which were subject to the above- referenced grants. The Company and the Exchange then agreed that the grants be rescinded. All previous restricted stock compensation has been reversed. The Company considered the impact of these findings and deemed it immaterial to all prior quarters and the year end.
As a result of the settlement agreement entered into with D4D Limited (“D4D”) for prior executive services on April 12, 2011, 1.25 million shares of MDST common stock held by the Company were assigned to D4D (a related party) on April 28, 2011.
In May 2011 the Company disposed of 1.0 million shares of Medicsight via open market sales on London’s AIM Exchange, generating approximately $110 in gross proceeds. The Company’s overall holding in Medicsight was reduced to 83.75 million shares (53.85%) of the 155.5 million issued share capital of Medicsight.
On June 8, 2011 the Company received notice from the Exchange notifying that it is not in compliance with the following Exchange continued listing standards: Section 1003(a)(i) of the Company Guide, resulting from stockholders' equity on March 31, 2011 of less than $2.0 million and losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in two of its three most recent fiscal years; Section 1003(a)(ii) of the Company Guide with stockholders' equity of less than $4.0 million and losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in three of its four most recent fiscal years; and Section 1003(a)(iii) with stockholders' equity of less than $6.0 million and losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in its five most recent fiscal years.
As allowed by Exchange rules, the Company was given until July 8, 2011 to submit a plan to demonstrate its ability to regain compliance with the listing standards within an 18 month remediation period. On July 8, 2011, the Exchange granted the Company a one week extension until July 15, 2011 to file its plan of compliance; the Company filed its plan on that date.
14 |
On August 23, 2011, the Exchange accepted the Company’s plan of compliance submitted to the Exchange in response to the deficiency letter. The Exchange granted the Company an extension until December 8, 2012 to regain compliance with Sections 1003(a) (i)-(iii) of the Exchange’s Company Guide. The Exchange further notified the Company that its common stock had fallen to a low trading price for a significant period of time and that the Company was therefore not in compliance with Section 1003 (f)(v) of the Company Guide. The Exchange noted that the Company could regain compliance by effectuating a reverse-split of its common stock prior to February 23, 2012. On February 17, 2012 the Company received notice from the staff of the Exchange that the Company was granted an extension until March 31, 2012 to comply with Section 1003 (f)(v) of the Exchange’s Company Guide. The Company plans to effectuate a reverse split of its common stock at a special meeting of the stockholders to be held on March 20, 2012.
On January 3, 2012, the Company was notified that it is not in noncompliance with Section 704 of the Company Guide in that it failed to hold an annual meeting of its stockholders during 2011 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010. The Company's plan of compliance detailing actions which it had taken, or intended to take, to regain compliance with the continued listing standards was accepted by the Exchange via letter dated January 26, 2012, granting the Company until July 3, 2012 to regain compliance with Section 704 of the Exchange’s Company Guide.
The Company will be subject to periodic review by Exchange staff during the extension period and prior to compliance with Sections 704, 1003(a)(i), (ii), (iii) and (f)(v) of the Exchange’s Company Guide. Failure to make progress consistent with the plans of compliance or to regain compliance with the continued listing standards by the end of the extension period could result in the Company being delisted from the NYSE AMEX LLC.
The Company's stock trading symbol remains MGT, but now includes ".BC" appendage to denote its noncompliance. The trading symbol will continue to bear this additional indicator until the Company regains its compliance with the Exchange continued listing requirements.
On July 11, 2011, the Company announced in a Current Report on Form 8-K that it had initiated an internal investigation through a Special Committee regarding the potential misappropriation and/or misdirection of Company funds. The Special Committee has continued to conduct this inquiry, however, the investigation is not yet complete and the Company cannot predict with certainty when the investigation will be completed.
On July 8, 2011, due to the on-going internal investigations trading in Medicsight’s common stock was halted by the AIM market and, as a consequence, trading in MGT’s common stock was also halted by the Exchange. On August 22, 2011 the Company issued a press release based upon the substantially complete results of the investigation. The Company had concluded that no adjustments or restatements of prior issued financial statements were required. Although the investigation remains on-going, management is confident that the Company’s financial statements will not require a material restatement as a result of any additional irregularities that may be uncovered in the future. The trading halt was lifted by the respective markets on August 22, 2011.
In the event the investigation results in any finding of wrongdoing, the Company plans, consistent with the best interests of the Company and its stockholders, to pursue recovery and/or restitution to the fullest extent provided by law. However, in such an event, there can be no assurance of any recovery, or that any recovery will exceed the costs of collection, the costs of any litigation (including settlements as well as legal fees) relating to this matter, or any other costs associated with this matter, including but not limited to payment of taxes or fines, and the findings of unreported claims on the Company’s assets.
On August 22, 2011, the Board of Directors of Medicsight had agreed to call a General Meeting of Stockholders on September 14, 2011 to cancel trading of Medicsight PLC’s Ordinary Shares. As a result of the meeting on September 14, 2011, the resolution was duly passed and Medicsight’s shares were cancelled on The London Stock Exchange effective September 22, 2011. In addition on September 22, 2011 Medicsight PLC status changed to a limited company, now known as Medicsight ltd.
On December 27, 2011, MGT raised approximately $639 net of associated costs of $142, in a direct rights offering to its shareholders. All 31,240,472 shares subject to the subscription rights were sold pursuant to the Basic Subscription Privilege and the Oversubscription Privilege described in the Prospectus, as filed with the Commission on November 22, 2011.
At December 31, 2011 Medicsight’s and MGT’s cash and cash equivalents were $3,123 and $581, respectively compared to $8,256 and $178 at December 31, 3010. The Company entered into a Revolving Line of Credit and Security Agreement with Laddcap Value Partners III LLC (“Laddcap”) on April 12, 2011 for up to $500 for a fifteen month term. The Agreement encompasses a standby commitment fee of two (2%) percent of the maximum loan amount along with an eight (8%) percent interest charge on any funds drawn. Laddcap is a related party as the Managing Partner and beneficial owner of Laddcap is a shareholder, president and CEO of MGT. No funds have been drawn against the facility as of the filing of Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Management believes that the current level of working capital will be sufficient to allow the Company to maintain its operations into April 2013. The Company is also analyzing potential acquisition opportunities in healthcare marketing and technology, as well as various intellectual property assets. There can be no assurance that any acquisitions will occur at all, or that any such acquisitions will be accretive to earnings, book value and other financial metrics, or that any such acquisitions will generate positive returns for Company shareholders. Furthermore, it is contemplated that any acquisitions may require the Company to raise capital; such capital may not be available on terms acceptable to the Company, if at all.

Critical accounting policies and estimates
Our discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The notes to the consolidated financial statements contained in this Annual Report describe our significant accounting policies used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. We continually evaluate our critical accounting policies and estimates.
We believe the critical accounting policies listed below reflect significant judgments, estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.
Principles of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of our Company plus wholly owned subsidiaries and our majority owned subsidiary Medicsight. The functional currency of our majority owned subsidiary is their local currency, GBP. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. All foreign currency translation gains and losses arising on consolidation were recorded in stockholders’ equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss). Non-controlling interest represents the minority equity investment in any of the MGT group of companies, plus the minorities’ share of the net operating result and other components of equity relating to the non-controlling interest.
Use of estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and cash equivalents
The Company considers investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Revenue Recognition
Medicsight
The Company recognizes revenue when it is realized or realizable and earned. The Company considers revenue realized or realizable and earned when there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement and that 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.
Software — License fee revenue is derived from the licensing of computer software. Maintenance revenue is derived from software maintenance. Our software licenses are generally sold as part of an arrangement that includes maintenance and support.
16 |
The Company licenses software and sell maintenance through visualization solution partners and original equipment manufacturers. The Company receives regular sales reporting 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 30-45 days from invoicing. 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”).
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 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 Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements. 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. The fair value of maintenance and support services is established based on renewal rates.
Hardware — Revenue is derived from the sale of our MedicCO2LON product. This product is an automated CO2 insufflation device, and is generally sold as part of an arrangement that includes a one year warranty. The risk of incurring warranty related expense is mitigated by the warranty contractually agreed with the supplier. The Company reviews the risk of warranty liabilities on a regular basis, and makes any and all appropriate provisions accordingly. At the present time, the Company feels that the warranty liability is insignificant and has therefore not made any provision.
MedicCO2LON is sold exclusively through our distribution partner Medrad Inc. Revenue is recognized as orders are satisfied and goods are delivered to our distribution partner. The Company generally offers terms which require payments within 30-45 days from invoicing.
Equity-based compensation
The Company recognizes compensation expense for all equity-based payments. Under fair value recognition provisions, the Company recognizes equity-based compensation net of an estimated forfeiture rate and recognizes compensation cost only for those shares expected to vest over the requisite service period of the award.
The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation model. The Black-Scholes option valuation model requires the development of assumptions that are input into the model. These assumptions are the expected stock volatility, the risk-free interest rate, the option’s expected life and the dividend yield on the underlying stock. Expected volatility is calculated based on the historical volatility of our common stock over the expected option life and other appropriate factors. Risk-free interest rates are calculated based on continuously compounded risk-free rates for the appropriate term. The dividend yield is assumed to be zero as the Company has never paid or declared any cash dividends on our common stock and does not intend to pay dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. The expected forfeiture rate is estimated based on historical experience.
Determining the appropriate fair value model and calculating the fair value of equity-based payment awards requires the input of the subjective assumptions described above. The assumptions used in calculating the fair value of equity-based payment awards represent management’s best estimates, which involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management’s judgment. As a result, if factors change and the Company uses different assumptions, our equity-based compensation expense could be materially different in the future. In addition, the Company is required to estimate the expected forfeiture rate and recognize expense only for those shares expected to vest. If our actual forfeiture rate is materially different from our estimate, the equity-based compensation expense could be significantly different from what the Company has recorded in the current period.
Inventory
We account for inventory at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market. Cost is determined to be purchased cost for the finished MedicCO2LON product from the third party supplier. We perform full physical inventory counts to maintain controls and obtain accurate data. The MedicCO2LON product is either (i) sold to our exclusive distributor or (ii) placed in an external third party secure warehouse facility and remains our property. Once the units are shipped to the distributor it is deemed that the ownership is transferred to the distributor and the goods are delivered. Reserves for slow-moving and obsolete inventories are provided based on historical experience and product demand. Management evaluates the adequacy of these reserves periodically based on forecasted sales and market trends.
17 |
Research and development
The Company incurs costs in connection with the development of software products that are intended for sale. Costs incurred prior to technological feasibility being established for the product are expensed as incurred. Technological feasibility is established upon completion of a detail program design or, in its absence, completion of a working model. Thereafter, all software production costs are 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 have decided to expense all research and development costs. Our research and development costs are comprised of staff, consultancy and other costs expensed on the Medicsight products.
Property and equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method on the various asset classes over their estimated useful lives, which range from two to five years. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the term of the lease.
Foreign currency translation
The accounts of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries are maintained using the local currency as the functional currency. For these subsidiaries, assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at period-end exchange rates, and income and expense accounts are translated at average monthly exchange rates. Net gains and losses from foreign currency translation are excluded from operating results and are accumulated as a separate component of stockholders’ equity.
Gains and losses on foreign currency transactions are reflected in selling, general and administrative expenses in the income statement.
Income taxes
The Company applies the elements of FASB ASC 740-10 “Income Taxes — Overall” regarding accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. This clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in financial statements and requires the impact of a tax position to be recognized in the financial statements if that position is more likely than not of being sustained by the taxing authority. As of December 31, 2011and 2010, the Company did not have any unrecognized tax benefits. The Company does not expect that the amount of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly increase or decrease within the next twelve months. The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties related to tax matters in the income tax provision in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. There was no interest and penalties for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010. Tax years beginning in 2008 are generally subject to examination by taxing authorities, although net operating losses from all years are subject to examinations and adjustments for at least three years following the year in which the attributes are used.
Deferred taxes are computed based on the tax liability or benefit in future years of the reversal of temporary differences in the recognition of income or deduction of expenses between financial and tax reporting purposes. The net difference, if any, between the provision for taxes and taxes currently payable is reflected in the balance sheet as deferred taxes. Deferred tax assets and/or liabilities, if any, are classified as current and non-current based on the classification of the related asset or liability for financial reporting purposes, or based on the expected reversal date for deferred taxes that are not related to an asset or liability. Valuation allowances are recorded to reduce deferred tax assets to that amount which is more likely than not to be realized.
Loss per share
Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss attributable to the ordinary shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share is calculated by dividing the net loss attributable to the ordinary shareholders by the sum of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and the diluted potential ordinary shares.
The computation of diluted loss per share for the years ended December 31, 2011, and 2010 excludes all options because they are anti-dilutive due to the loss. For the year ended December 31, 2011 there were 3,781,253 options excluded with a weighted average exercise price of $0.18 per share. For the year ended December 31, 2010 there were 13,703,334 options excluded with a weighted average exercise price of $0.20 per share.
18 |
Comprehensive income / (loss)
Comprehensive income/(loss) includes net income/(loss) and items defined as other comprehensive income/(loss). Items defined as other comprehensive income/(loss), include foreign currency translation adjustments and are separately classified in the consolidated financial statements. Such items are reported in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Stockholders’ Equity as accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss).
Segment reporting
The Company operates in one main operational segment, Medicsight, a medical imaging and device hardware company, with MGT providing corporate management services.

Results of Operations
Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2011 vs. Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2010
Revenue and gross margin
The Company generated revenues of $536 and gross margin of $432 for the year ended December 31, 2011 compared to $540 and $424 for same period in 2010.
In the year ending December 31, 2011, Medicsight sold CAD licenses primarily in Europe where it has regulatory approvals. Sales of our CAD products decreased by 1% to $319 compared to $323 for the year ending December 31, 2010.
In the year ended December 31, 2011, additional revenue of $217 was recognized through MedicCO2LON sales, equal to $217 for the same period in 2010.
Operating expenses
Our selling, general & administrative expenses were reduced to $7,150 in 2011 compared to $10,181 for the period ending December 31, 2010. Due to delays in receiving regulatory approvals in Japan and the USA management continued to reduce headcount and streamline operations in 2011. The effects of these decisions will continue to be reflected in the statement of operations.
Research and development costs decreased to $1,144 compared to $1,576 in 2010, primarily due to the reduction of headcount.
Interest and other income was $28 for the year ended December 31, 2011 as a result of Medicsight’s lower cash balances versus $66 for the period ending December 31, 2010.
Income Tax
Our effective tax rate for fiscal year 2011 and 2010 was (2)% and (3)%, respectively. The difference in the Company’s effective tax rate from the Federal statutory rate is primarily due to a 100% valuation allowance provided for all deferred tax assets.
Net loss and net loss per share
Net loss attributable to MGT was $4,549 for Fiscal 2011 compared to a net loss of $9,651 for Fiscal 2010. Net loss per share for Fiscal 2011 was $0.12 (based on weighted average shares outstanding of 39,329,561), compared to $0.29 for Fiscal 2010 (based on weighted average shares outstanding of 32,960,179).
Operational currency
The Company’s main operating currency is UK sterling (£). Medicsight’s results of operations are affected by changes in the $: £ rates used to translate the operational result. For Fiscal 2011 the average rate was $1.6061: £1.00 and for Fiscal 2010 the rate was $1.5430, an increase of 4% in the value of the dollar against sterling.

Currently the Company anticipates it has sufficient cash on hand to continue operations into April 2013, at which point the Company may need to seek additional sources of financing. There is no guarantee that additional sources of financing will be available or on terms acceptable to the Company.
Operating Activities
Our cash and cash equivalents have decreased during 2011 predominantly because of the $(7,635) used in operating activities. Our net cash used in operating activities differs from net loss predominantly because of various non-cash adjustments such as depreciation, stock-based compensation and movements in working capital.

Dunamis paid back the principal of $1,100 (£686) and interest of $48 (£30) on February 6, 2011 and February 10, 2011 respectively. The funds were lent to Dunamis in order to achieve a higher rate of interest than we would have on deposit with a financial institution and also to demonstrate Medicsight’s financial ability to co-invest with a joint venture in the region using one of its UAE subsidiaries. Dunamis had provided the assets of the business as collateral against the loan made by Medicsight.

Other Liquidity Information
Investment in Medicsight
On February 10, 2011 the Company announced its decision to explore all alternatives with respect to maximizing the value of its holding in Medicsight; this analysis is on-going. Our consolidated financial statements include the results and financial condition of our subsidiary, Medicsight.
Medicsight was previously listed on the AIM Market of the London Stock Exchange through September 22, 2011, when its shares were cancelled based on a duly passed shareholder resolution and Medicsight became private.
Risks and uncertainties related to our future capital requirements
To date we have primarily financed our operations through private placements of equity securities. To the extent that additional capital is raised through the sale of equity or equity-related securities of the Company or its subsidiaries, the issuance of such securities could result in dilution to our stockholders.
No assurance can be given, however, that we will have access to the capital markets in the future, or that financing will be available on acceptable terms to satisfy our cash requirements to implement our business strategies.
If we are unable to access the capital markets or obtain acceptable financing, our results of operations and financial conditions could be materially and adversely affected. We may be required to raise substantial additional funds through other means.
Our technology has not yet been regulated in all target territories and as a result commercial results have been limited and we have not generated significant revenues. We cannot assure our stockholders that our technology and products will be commercialized successfully, or that if so commercialized, that revenues will be sufficient to fund our operations.
If adequate funds are not available to us, we may be required to curtail operations significantly or to obtain funds through entering into arrangements with collaborative partners or others that may require us to relinquish rights to certain of our technologies or products that we would not otherwise relinquish.
On June 8, 2011 the Company received notice from the NYSE Amex (the "Exchange") notifying that it is not in compliance with the following Exchange continued listing standards: Section 1003(a)(i) of the Company Guide, resulting from stockholders' equity on March 31, 2011 of less than $2.0 million and losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in two of its three most recent fiscal years; Section 1003(a)(ii) of the Company Guide with stockholders' equity of less than $4.0 million and losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in three of its four most recent fiscal years; and Section 1003(a)(iii) with stockholders' equity of less than $6.0 million and losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in its five most recent fiscal years.
As allowed by Exchange rules, the Company was given until July 8, 2011 to submit a plan to demonstrate its ability to regain compliance with the listing standards within an 18 month remediation period. On July 8, 2011, the Exchange granted the Company a one week extension until July 15, 2011 to file its plan of compliance; the Company filed its plan on that date.
On August 23, 2011, the Exchange accepted the Company’s plan of compliance submitted to the Exchange in response to the deficiency letter. The Exchange granted the Company an extension until December 8, 2012 to regain compliance with Sections 1003(a) (i)-(iii) of the Exchange’s Company Guide. The Exchange further notified the Company that its common stock had fallen to a low trading price for a significant period of time and that the Company was therefore not in compliance with Section 1003 (f)(v) of the Company Guide. The Company was given until February 23, 2012 to comply with this Section. The Exchange noted that the Company could regain compliance by effectuating a reverse-split of its common stock prior to February 23, 2012. On February 17, 2012 the Company received notice from the staff of the Exchange that the Company was granted an extension until March 31, 2012 to comply with Section 1003 (f) (v) of the Exchange’s Company Guide. The Company plans to effectuate a reverse split of its common stock at a special meeting of the stockholders to be held on March 20, 2012.
On January 3, 2012, the Company was notified that it is not in noncompliance with Section 704 of the Company Guide in that it failed to hold an annual meeting of its stockholders during 2011 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010. The Company's plan of compliance detailing actions which it had taken, or intended to take, to regain compliance with the continued listing standards was accepted by the Exchange via letter dated January 26, 2012, granting the Company until July 3, 2012 to regain compliance with Section 704 of the Exchange’s Company Guide.
23 |
The Company will be subject to periodic review by Exchange staff during the extension period and prior to compliance with Sections 704, 1003(a)(i), (ii), (iii) and (f)(v) of the Exchange’s Company Guide. Failure to make progress consistent with the plans of compliance or to regain compliance with the continued listing standards by the end of the extension period could result in the Company being delisted from the NYSE AMEX LLC.
The Company's stock trading symbol remains MGT, but includes a ".BC" appendage to denote its noncompliance. The trading symbol will bear this additional indicator until the Company regains its compliance with the exchange continued listing requirements.
On July 8, 2011 due to on-going investigations, trading in Medicsight's common stock was halted by the AIM market. As a consequence, trading in MGT's common stock was also halted by the Exchange. Trading resumed for MGT on August 22, 2011.

Under this lease agreement our U.K. property rent, services and related costs are approximately £330 ($516) per annum, paid quarterly in advance.

Item 7A | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk |
Not applicable.
Item 8 | Financial Statements and Supplementary Data |
See Financial Statements and Schedules attached hereto.

Item 9A | Controls and Procedures |
(a) | Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. |
The Company has established controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the Company conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report (the “Evaluation Date”). There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives. Based on such evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company (including its combined subsidiaries) in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the communication to the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
(b) | Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting |
SEC rules implementing Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 require our 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K to contain management’s report regarding the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. As a basis for our report, we tested and evaluated the design, documentation, and operating effectiveness of our internal control.
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act, of MGT Capital Investments, Inc. and its subsidiaries. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting consists of policies and procedures that are designed and operated to provide reasonable assurance about the reliability of the Company’s financial reporting and its process for preparing financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). There are inherent limitations in the effectiveness of any system of internal control, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of controls. Accordingly, even effective internal controls can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation. Further, because of changes in conditions, the effectiveness of internal control may vary over time.
As discussed in Item 9A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 and our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for during the nine months period ending September 30, 2011, respectively, we identified the following material weaknesses: The Company did not properly identify and track matters requiring shareholder approval and notifications and the Company did not identify all related party relationships.
As a result of the identification of the weaknesses, the Company worked with outside counsel and made changes to insure items requiring board of director or shareholder approval are identified and tracked with corporate counsel. In addition, the Company implemented procedures, as described below to remediate the disclosure control weakness. The Company believes the above-described actions have remediated the material weakness in the control environment and will help ensure that similar situations do not arise in the future.
On July 11, 2011, the Company announced in a Current Report on Form 8-K that it had initiated an internal investigation through a Special Committee regarding the potential misappropriation and/or misdirection of Company funds. The Special Committee has continued to conduct this inquiry, however, the investigation is not yet complete and the Company cannot predict with certainty when the investigation will be completed. Based upon the preliminary results of the investigation, the Company has concluded that no adjustments or restatement of our prior issued financial statements was required.
The financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K were prepared with particular attention to the material weaknesses identified above. Accordingly, management believes that our Financial Statements and the accompanying notes included in this Form 10-K fairly present, in all material respects, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows as of and for the periods presented.
26 |
We continually review our disclosure controls and procedures and make changes, as necessary, to ensure the quality of our financial reporting. As detailed below, we have enhanced our controls in a manner that remediated the issues that arose with respect to the material weaknesses.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on criteria established in the Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Management's assessment included evaluation of such elements as the design and operating effectiveness of key financial reporting controls, process documentation, accounting policies, and our overall control environment. Based on this evaluation, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2011.
This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s independent public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s independent public accounting firm pursuant to permanent rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.
(c) | Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. |
Management is committed to the continued improvement of our overall system of internal control over financial reporting. Management implemented measures to remediate the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting described above. Specifically, we enhanced internal procedures to track items requiring board and/or shareholder approval and distributed and reviewed an Officer and Director Questionnaire to ascertain any potential related party relationships requiring attentions. As part of our fiscal 2011 assessment of internal control over financial reporting, management conducted sufficient testing and evaluation of the implemented controls to ascertain that they were designed and operating effectively and concluded that the implemented controls remediated the material weaknesses identified above. We will continue to assess the effectiveness of our remediation in connection with management’s future evaluations of internal control over financial reporting.
Except as identified above, during the most recent fiscal quarter, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 13 | Certain Relationships and Related Transactions and Director Independence. |
Accsys Technologies
Tim Paterson-Brown, our former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, was a non-executive director of Accsys Technologies plc (“Accsys”), but resigned from this position on April 6, 2010. Accsys’ subsidiary, Titan Wood Limited (“Titan Wood”), rented space at 66 Hammersmith Road, London W14 8UD, United Kingdom. During the year ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 respectively, £55 ($89) and £126 ($195) of office related costs were recharged to Titan Wood. At December 31, 2011, Titan Wood is no longer a related party and there was nothing outstanding from Titan Wood.
Moneygate Group
In Fiscal 2009 we purchased 49% of the share capital of Moneygate. On acquisition we provided loan facilities of £250 ($387) for working capital and £2,000 ($3,094) for acquisitions and subsequently entered into various transactions with Moneygate and other non-related parties.
At December 31, 2010, and through to its disposal, Moneygate was a related party. It was considered that the Company had significant influence over its operations and had representation on the board of directors. Due to this significant influence, we account for it under the equity method. Since the investment was acquired at a nominal value, also its fair value, and had incurred losses since we made our investment, it was recorded in the consolidated financial statements at a value of $nil at December 31, 2010.
On January 31, 2011, we entered into a Sale and Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Committed Capital Nominees Limited (“Committed”). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, Committed agreed to purchase: (i) all 9,607,843 shares of Moneygate which MGT owned, for consideration of £0.096 ($0.154); and (ii) to novate the benefit of a Facility Agreement dated November 18, 2010, between the Company and Moneygate, for consideration of £250 ($387), resulting in a gain on sale of £51 ($81). The consideration of £200 ($321) was received by the Company on March 29, 2011.
Dunamis Capital
Allan Rowley, former Chief Executive Officer and former Chief Financial Officer of MGT and former Chief Executive Officer of Medicsight, along with David Sumner, former Chairman of Medicsight, are both directors of Dunamis. Dunamis is a United Arab Emirates (“UAE”) registered company regulated by the Dubai Financial Services Authority (“DFSA”). Dunamis is 100% owned by David Sumner and was set up by Mr. Sumner with Allan Rowley’s financial consulting assistance, as a corporate financing and advisory firm. On September 6, 2010 Medicsight made a short-term loan of $1,100 (£711) to Dunamis. Dunamis paid back the principal of $1,100 (£711) and interest of $48 (£30) on February 6, 2011 and February 10, 2011 respectively.
In February 2011 the Company, following consultation with its nominated advisor noted that as a result of Mr Sumner’s relationships with both Dunamis and Medicsight, the Loan constituted a related party transaction under Rule 13 of AIM Rules for Companies. Rule 13 requires that an AIM company must issue notification without delay as soon as the terms of a transaction with a related party are agreed. The independent directors, having consulted with the Company’s nominated adviser, considered the terms of the transaction fair and reasonable insofar as shareholders were concerned. On February 18, 2011 the Company issued a notice detailing the terms of the transaction with the related party.
Laddcap Value Partners III LLC (“Laddcap”)
On April 12, 2011 the Company entered into a Revolving Line of Credit and Security Agreement with Laddcap for up to $500 for a fifteen month term. The Agreement encompasses a standby commitment fee of two (2%) percent of the maximum loan amount along with an eight (8%) percent interest charge on any funds drawn. Laddcap is a related party as the Managing Partner and beneficial owner of Laddcap is a shareholder and Chief Executive Officer of MGT. No amounts have been drawn down against the facility as of the date of the filing of the Company’s Form 10-K for annual period ended December 31, 2011.

D4D Limited
Effective July 29, 2010, the Company entered into a service agreement with D4D Limited (“D4D”), a company that offers Executive Services for small and mid-cap companies. D4D is owned by Tim Paterson-Brown and Allan Rowley, and pursuant to the agreement, provided the services of Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer to the Company. The D4D service agreement provided the services of Tim Paterson-Brown and Allan Rowley on similar remuneration to their previous employment contracts with MGT.
On executing the contract with D4D on July 29, 2010, Tim Paterson-Brown and Allan Rowley terminated their employment contracts with MGT, but still held the offices of Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, respectively.
On December 13, 2010 Tim Paterson-Brown resigned as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of MGT. Effective December 13, 2010 and following the resignation of David Sumner on November 23, 2010, Tim Paterson-Brown became Chairman of Medicsight, the Company’s significant subsidiary. As such, an agreement between Medicsight and D4D was entered into for the provision of the services of an Executive Chairman. On February 18, 2011, Tim Paterson-Brown subsequently resigned as Chairman of Medicsight and was entitled to receive, and has been paid on February 18, 2011, a severance amount of £144 ($223).
On December 13, 2010 Allan Rowley resigned as Chief Financial Officer and took up office of Chief Executive Officer for MGT. Subsequently, Mr. Rowley resigned on February 7, 2011, to focus on the operations of Medicsight and held the position of Chief Executive Officer of Medicsight until July 26, 2011, when he tendered and the board of directors accepted his resignation.
On April 12, 2011, the agreement with D4D was renegotiated and a settlement agreement between MGT and D4D, Tim Paterson-Brown and Allan Rowley was executed and delivered. Under the settlement agreement, the following payments and assignments were agreed to be made by the Company to D4D: £110 ($170) settlement fee, £80 ($124) recoverable local taxes, £17 ($25) estimated legal expense and the assignment of 1.25 million shares of MDST common stock held by the Company to D4D. The common stock was delivered to D4D on April 28, 2011 and had a fair value of $71 on the date of transfer. The parties, upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the settlement agreement and to the extent permitted by law, settled all claims arising out of the D4D Agreement and the respective directorships and employment arrangements with the Company and certain of its affiliates. The Company has fully accrued and expensed all related costs. As of December 31, 2011 only the estimated legal expenses of £17 ($28) remain accrued and unpaid.
During the year ended December 31, 2011 MGT and Medicsight made payments to D4D, totalling $304 (2010: $511) and $315 ($2010: $31) respectively.

Fees for independent registered public accounting firm for 2011 and 2010
Set forth below are the aggregate fees billed for each of the last two fiscal years ended December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010 for services rendered by EisnerAmper LLP and Amper, Politziner & Mattia, LLP.

Total fees | $ | 197 | $ | 217 |
On August 18, 2010 the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors engaged EisnerAmper LLP to serve as the Company’s new independent registered public accounting firm, after it was notified on August 16, 2010 that Amper, Politziner and Mattia, LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, would not be able to stand for re-appointment because it combined its practice on that date with that of Eisner LLP to form EisnerAmper LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm. The Company previously filed Form 8-K on August 19, 2010 acknowledging this change.
Audit fees consist of fees billed for services rendered for the audit of our financial statements and review of our financial statements included in our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q. During 2011 and 2010, we incurred audit fees with Amper, Politziner, & Mattia, LLP in the amount of $0 and $25, respectively. During 2011 and 2010, we incurred audit and audit-related fees with EisnerAmper LLP in the amount of $175 and $150, respectively.
Tax fees consist of fees billed for professional services related to the preparation of our U.S. federal and state income tax returns and tax advice. During 2011 and 2010, we incurred tax fees with Amper, Politziner, & Mattia, LLP in the amount of $0 and $9, respectively. During 2011 and 2010, we incurred tax fees with EisnerAmper LLP in the amount of $22 and $33, respectively.
The Audit Committee pre-approved all Audit-related fees. After considering the provision of services encompassed within the above disclosures about fees, the Audit Committee has determined that the provision of such services is compatible with maintaining EisnerAmper’s independence.
Pre-approval policy of services performed by independent registered public accounting firm
The Audit Committee’s policy is to pre-approve all audit and non-audit related services, tax services and other services. Pre-approval is generally provided for up to one year, and any pre-approval is detailed as to the particular service or category of services and is generally subject to a specific budget. The Audit Committee has delegated the pre-approval authority to its chairperson when expedition of services is necessary. The independent registered public accounting firm and management are required to periodically report to the full Audit Committee regarding the extent of services provided by the independent registered public accounting firm in accordance with this pre-approval and the fees for the services performed to date.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
Board of Directors and Stockholders
MGT Capital Investments, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of MGT Capital Investments, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ (deficit) / equity and comprehensive income / (loss) and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2011. The financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of MGT Capital Investments, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2011, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
In connection with our audit of the consolidated financial statements referred to above, we also audited Schedule II – Valuation and Qualifying Accounts for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2011. In our opinion, this financial schedule, when considered in relation to the consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material respects, the information stated therein.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(In thousands except share and per share amounts)
1. | Organization, basis of presentation and liquidity |
MGT Capital Investments, Inc. (“MGT”, “the Company”, the “Group”, “we”, “us”) is a holding company. We currently have a controlling interest in Medicsight ltd (“Medicsight”) and its subsidiaries Medicsight, Inc., Medicsight KK (Japan), Medicsight Pty Limited (Australia), Medicsight FZE (UAE), MedicEndo Limited (UAE), MedicCO2lon Limited (UAE) and Medicsight UK Limited (UK). On March 29, 2011 we disposed of our 49% holding in Moneygate Group Limited (“Moneygate”). On March 31, 2010 we disposed of our controlling interest in Medicexchange Limited (“Medicexchange”) and various other investments. We also have wholly owned subsidiaries MGT Capital Investments (UK) Limited, MGT Investments (Gibraltar) Limited, and Medicsight Nominees Limited.
· | Medicsight is a medical technology company focusing on medical imaging software development and medical hardware devices. The Company develops and commercializes enterprise-wide Computer-Aided Detection (“CAD”) applications which analyze Computer Tomography (“CT”) scans to assist radiologists in the early detection and measurement of colorectal polyps and lung lesions. The CAD software received a CE Mark in 2009, which allows for sales in the European Union. On May 19, 2011, Medicsight’s software also received clearance from the U. S. Food and Drug Administration. Revenue is presently limited as Medicsight attempts to commercialize its recent U.S. approval. In late July 2011, Medicsight was informed by the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare (“MHLW”) that several statistical data errors were encountered in their review of the application for approval of its MedicRead software for use in CT Colonography procedures. Following informal guidance from MHLW, during August 2011, the Company decided to withdraw the current submission and is assessing the next course of action. In the meantime, the Board of Directors of Medicsight closed the Tokyo office as part of an overall program of expense reduction and corporate simplification. In addition to closing the Tokyo office, management of Medicsight has decided to close several non-essential subsidiaries in Australia, China and the UAE citing the unjustifiably high legal, regulatory and accounting costs of maintaining such entities. However, in order to better exploit the recent FDA approval of ColonCAD, Medicsight has opened a U.S. subsidiary (Medicsight, Inc.) in New York. Medicsight has also developed an automated CO2 medical inflation device and associated disposable tubing (MedicCO2LON) that is being commercialized via a global distributor. As of December 31, 2011, the Company held 83.75 million shares (53.85%) of the 155.5 million issued share capital of Medicsight. Medicsight was previously listed on the AIM market of the London Stock Exchange through September 22, 2011, when its shares were cancelled based on a duly passed shareholder resolution and Medicsight became private. |
The Company has incurred significant operating losses since inception and continues to generate losses from operations. As a result, the Company has generated negative cash flows from operations and has an accumulated deficit of $280,027 at December 31, 2011. 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.
At December 31, 2011 Medicsight’s cash and cash equivalents were $3,123.
At December 31, 2011 MGT’s Company only cash and cash equivalents were $571.
Management believes that the current level of working capital, will be sufficient to allow the Company to maintain its operations into April 2013.

2. | Summary of significant accounting policies: |
Principles of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of our Company plus wholly owned subsidiaries and our majority owned subsidiary Medicsight. The functional currency of our majority owned subsidiary is their local currency, GBP. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. All foreign currency translation gains and losses arising on consolidation were recorded in stockholders’ equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss). Non-controlling interest represents the minority equity investment in any of the MGT group of companies, plus the minorities’ share of the net operating result and other components of equity relating to the non-controlling interest.
Use of estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and cash equivalents
The Company considers investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Revenue Recognition
Medicsight
The Company recognizes revenue when it is realized or realizable and earned. The Company considers revenue realized or realizable and earned when there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement and that 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.
Software — License fee revenue is derived from the licensing of computer software. Maintenance revenue is derived from software maintenance. Our software licenses are generally sold as part of an arrangement that includes maintenance and support.
The Company licenses software and sell maintenance through visualization solution partners and original equipment manufacturers. The Company receives regular sales reporting 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 30-45 days from invoicing. 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”).
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 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 Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements. 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. The fair value of maintenance and support services is established based on renewal rates.
Hardware — Revenue is derived from the sale of our MedicCO2LON product. This product is an automated CO2 insufflation device, and is generally sold as part of an arrangement that includes a one year warranty. The risk of incurring warranty related expense is mitigated by the warranty contractually agreed with the supplier. The Company reviews the risk of warranty liabilities on a regular basis, and makes any and all appropriate provisions accordingly. At the present time, the Company feels that the warranty liability is insignificant and has therefore not made any provision.
F-8 |
MedicCO2LON is sold exclusively through our distribution partner Medrad Inc. Revenue is recognized as orders are satisfied and goods are delivered to our distribution partner. The Company generally offers terms which require payments within 30-45 days from invoicing.
Equity-based compensation
The Company recognizes compensation expense for all equity-based payments. Under fair value recognition provisions, the Company recognizes equity-based compensation net of an estimated forfeiture rate and recognizes compensation cost only for those shares expected to vest over the requisite service period of the award.
The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation model. The Black-Scholes option valuation model requires the development of assumptions that are input into the model. These assumptions are the expected stock volatility, the risk-free interest rate, the option’s expected life and the dividend yield on the underlying stock. Expected volatility is calculated based on the historical volatility of our common stock over the expected option life and other appropriate factors. Risk-free interest rates are calculated based on continuously compounded risk-free rates for the appropriate term. The dividend yield is assumed to be zero as the Company has never paid or declared any cash dividends on our common stock and does not intend to pay dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. The expected forfeiture rate is estimated based on historical experience.
Determining the appropriate fair value model and calculating the fair value of equity-based payment awards requires the input of the subjective assumptions described above. The assumptions used in calculating the fair value of equity-based payment awards represent management’s best estimates, which involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management’s judgment. As a result, if factors change and the Company uses different assumptions, our equity-based compensation expense could be materially different in the future. In addition, the Company is required to estimate the expected forfeiture rate and recognize expense only for those shares expected to vest. If our actual forfeiture rate is materially different from our estimate, the equity-based compensation expense could be significantly different from what the Company has recorded in the current period.
Inventory
We account for inventory at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market. Cost is determined to be purchased cost for the finished MedicCO2LON product from the third party supplier. We perform full physical inventory counts to maintain controls and obtain accurate data. The MedicCO2LON product is either (i) sold to our exclusive distributor or (ii) placed in an external third party secure warehouse facility and remains our property. Once the units are shipped to the distributor it is deemed that the ownership is transferred to the distributor and the goods are delivered. Reserves for slow-moving and obsolete inventories are provided based on historical experience and product demand. Management evaluates the adequacy of these reserves periodically based on forecasted sales and market trends.
Research and development
The Company incurs costs in connection with the development of software products that are intended for sale. Costs incurred prior to technological feasibility being established for the product are expensed as incurred. Technological feasibility is established upon completion of a detail program design or, in its absence, completion of a working model. Thereafter, all software production costs are 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 have decided to expense all research and development costs. Our research and development costs are comprised of staff, consultancy and other costs expensed on the Medicsight products.
Property and equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method on the various asset classes over their estimated useful lives, which range from two to five years. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the term of the lease.
Foreign currency translation
The accounts of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries are maintained using the local currency as the functional currency. For these subsidiaries, assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at period-end exchange rates, and income and expense accounts are translated at average monthly exchange rates. Net gains and losses from foreign currency translation are excluded from operating results and are accumulated as a separate component of stockholders’ equity.
F-9 |
Gains and losses on foreign currency transactions are reflected in selling, general and administrative expenses in the income statement.
Income taxes
The Company applies the elements of FASB ASC 740-10 “Income Taxes — Overall” regarding accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. This clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in financial statements and requires the impact of a tax position to be recognized in the financial statements if that position is more likely than not of being sustained by the taxing authority. As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company did not have any unrecognized tax benefits. The Company does not expect that the amount of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly increase or decrease within the next twelve months. The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties related to tax matters in the income tax provision in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. There was no interest and penalties for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010. Tax years beginning in 2008 are generally subject to examination by taxing authorities, although net operating losses from all years are subject to examinations and adjustments for at least three years following the year in which the attributes are used.
Deferred taxes are computed based on the tax liability or benefit in future years of the reversal of temporary differences in the recognition of income or deduction of expenses between financial and tax reporting purposes. The net difference, if any, between the provision for taxes and taxes currently payable is reflected in the balance sheet as deferred taxes. Deferred tax assets and/or liabilities, if any, are classified as current and non-current based on the classification of the related asset or liability for financial reporting purposes, or based on the expected reversal date for deferred taxes that are not related to an asset or liability. Valuation allowances are recorded to reduce deferred tax assets to that amount which is more likely than not to be realized.
Loss per share
Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss attributable to the ordinary shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share is calculated by dividing the net loss attributable to the ordinary shareholders by the sum of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and the diluted potential ordinary shares.
The computation of diluted loss per share for the years ended December 31, 2011, and 2010 excludes all options because they are anti-dilutive due to the loss. For the year ended December 31, 2011 there were 3,781,253 options excluded with a weighted average exercise price of $0.18 per share. For the year ended December 31, 2010 there were 13,703,334 options excluded with a weighted average exercise price of $0.20 per share.
Comprehensive income / (loss)
Comprehensive income/(loss) includes net income/(loss) and items defined as other comprehensive income/(loss). Items defined as other comprehensive income/(loss), include foreign currency translation adjustments and are separately classified in the consolidated financial statements. Such items are reported in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Stockholders’ Equity as accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss).
Segment reporting
The Company operates in one main operational segment, Medicsight, a medical imaging and device hardware company, with MGT Capital Investments Inc. providing corporate management services.

3. | Divestment of investments and discontinued activities |
On March 31, 2010 the Company sold its stock in Medicexchange and various non-core investments to an unrelated third party in return for consideration of £750 ($1,136). This consideration was deferred and to be paid in instalments through March 2011. As of December 31, 2010 £506 ($766) had been received. The final instalment of £244 ($370) was paid on March 29, 2011.
The investments disposed of and the related consideration is as follows:
Asset | Consideration | |||
Medicexchange Limited | $ | 927 | ||
Medicexchange Inc. | 1 | |||
Hipcricket, Inc. | 205 | |||
Eurindia Limited | 1 | |||
XShares equity | 1 | |||
XShares convertible notes | 1 | |||
Total | $ | 1,136 |
Eurindia Limited (“Eurindia”) and the XShares Group, Inc. (“XShares”) convertible notes and equity investment had been fully impaired in previous periods so the consideration received of $3 represents the gain on sale recorded in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. HipCricket had a carrying value of $224 when sold meaning a loss on sales of $19 was recorded.
Before their disposal, Medicexchange Limited and Medicexchange Inc. were consolidated into the MGT consolidated financial statements. Consideration of $928 was allocated to Medicexchange and MGT recorded a profit on disposal of $149, net of tax. This gain on sale has been recognized in discontinued operations. The operations of Medicexchange have been presented in discontinued operations through the date of disposal, March 31, 2010.
Medicexchange’s operating results are as follows for the years ended December 31:
2011 | 2010 | |||||||
Revenue | $ | — | $ | 15 | ||||
Operating expenses | — | (249 | ) | |||||

4. | Cash and cash equivalents |
We invest our cash in short-term deposits with major banks. As of December 31, 2011 we held $3,704 of cash and cash equivalents.
Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and temporary investments with maturities of 90 days or less when purchased.
Concentrations
The Company held $3,123 and $8,433 of its cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, through Medicsight, its majority owned subsidiary, at financial institutions in Europe, United Arab Emirates (“UAE”) and Australia. Cash held in foreign institutions is not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.

$ | 28 | $ | 247 |
Depreciation of $122 was charged in 2011, compared to $138 charged in 2010.
6. | Investment accounted for under the equity method |
In Fiscal 2009 we purchased 49% of the share capital of Moneygate Group Limited (“Moneygate”). Moneygate is a related party as we had significant influence over it and had representation on the board of directors (see note 15). On acquisition we provided loan facilities of £250 ($387) for working capital and £2,000 ($3,094) for acquisitions and subsequently entered into various transactions with Moneygate and other non-related parties (see note 16).
As we had significant influence over Moneygate we accounted for it under the equity method. The investment was acquired at a nominal value, also its fair value, and incurred losses since our initial investment, it was recorded in the consolidated financial statements at a value of $nil at December 31, 2010.
Moneygate was sold on March 29, 2011.
7. | Inventory |
At December 31, 2011MedicCO2LON Limited, a subsidiary of Medicsight, held finished goods inventory comprised of insufflation devices and administration kits totalling $89. No inventory was held on December 31, 2010.

On November 30, 2010, Mr. David Sumner, Chairman of Medicsight Limited, resigned from his position within the group. Immediately after his resignation, a two year consultancy agreement was signed whereby Mr. Sumner would continue to assist the group in its commercial needs. As part of this agreement, Mr. Sumner was to continue to vest in his existing Medicsight Plan J options throughout the consultancy period. A modification of the 2,000,000 existing options has been accounted for, and is not considered to be material to the overall financial statements. The Company is no longer receiving services under this consulting agreement. As such all expenses and related stock-based compensation have been accelerated at December 31, 2011.

As of December 31, 2011 there was $136 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested share-based compensation arrangement granted under the option plans. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.03 years.
Restricted Shares Cancellation
At the March 7, 2011 board meeting, the members of the Compensation and Nominations Committee approved the grant of 500,000 restricted shares of MGT common stock, with each independent director of the board receiving 100,000 restricted shares. The restricted shares vest one-third each six months from date of issue. The restricted shares were valued at their fair market value on date of issue, of which the share-based compensation expense was to be recognized over their vesting period. On or about December 19, 2011, the Company was advised that approval of shareholders was required in order to allow the issuance and listing of these Restricted Shares. The Company rescinded all 500,000 restricted shares and reversed all previously expensed stock-based compensation. The cancellation of these shares is not considered to be material to the overall financial statements.

13. | Income taxes |
Significant components of deferred tax assets were as follows as of December 31:
Deferred Tax Assets | 2011 | 2010 | ||||||
U.S. federal tax loss carry-forward | $ | 5,858 | $ | 4,166 | ||||
U.S. State tax loss carry-forward | 74 | — | ||||||
Foreign tax loss carry-forward | 15,968 | 15,394 | ||||||
U.S. federal capital loss carry-forward | 671 | 733 | ||||||
Equity-based compensation, fixed assets and other | 104 | 3,295 | ||||||
Total | 22,675 | 23,588 | ||||||
Less: valuation Allowance | (22,675 | ) | (23,588 | ) | ||||
Net deferred tax asset | $ | — | $ | — |
As of December 31, 2011, the Company had the following tax attributes:
Amount | Begins to expire | |||||||
U.S. federal tax loss carry-forward | $ | 17,303 | Fiscal 2023 | |||||
U.S. State tax loss carry-forward | 891 | Fiscal 2031 | ||||||
Foreign tax loss carry-forward | 417 | Fiscal 2017 | ||||||
U.S. federal capital loss carry-forward | 76,457 | Indefinite |
As it is not more likely than not that the resulting deferred tax benefits will be realized, a full valuation allowance has been recognized for such deferred tax assets. Federal and state laws impose substantial restrictions on the utilization of tax attributes in the event of an “ownership change,” as defined in Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. Currently, the Company does not expect the utilization of tax attributes in the near term to be materially affected as no significant limitations are expected to be placed on these tax attributes as a result of previous ownership changes. If an ownership change is deemed to have occurred as a result of equity ownership changes or offerings, potential near term utilization of these assets could be reduced.
The provision for income tax differs from the amount computed by applying the statutory federal income tax rate to income before the provision for income taxes. The sources and tax effects of the differences are as follows for the year ended December 31:
2011 | 2010 | |||||||
Income taxes at the federal statutory rates | (35 | )% | (35 | )% | ||||
Foreign rate differential | 45 | 6 | ||||||
Change in valuation allowance | (12 | ) | 26 | |||||
Effective rate of income tax | (2 | )% | (3 | )% |
There was an income tax benefit of $198 and $336 recorded in the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, both of which are comprised of current taxes.
The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, New York State and various foreign jurisdictions. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local, or non-U.S. income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2008.

14. | Operating leases, commitments and security deposit |
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, United Kingdom. Under this lease agreement our U.K. property rent, services and related costs were approximately £330 ($516) per annum, paid quarterly in advance. The Company exercised its right to terminate the lease upon completion of the fifth year (August 24, 2011) and has found an alternative UK office location with no long-term lease commitment. This commitment was on a month-to-month basis and began on August 1, 2011 with total monthly rental payments of £8 ($13) along with a rental deposit of £16 ($25). In February, 2012, the Company moved to a smaller office in the same location with month-to-month rental payments of £2 ($4) and a rental deposit of £4 ($6).
On September 1, 2011 the Company entered into a three year lease agreement for office space located in Harrison, New York, United States terminating on November 30, 2014. Under the agreement our total rental payments over the three year lease period are $240, which includes three months of free rent and a refundable rental deposit of $39.
We had a satellite office in Tokyo, Japan, which was closed in January 2012 and the rental deposit of $128 was returned.
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:
Year Ending | ||||
2012 | $ | 89 | ||
2013 | 63 | |||
2014 | 56 | |||
Total | $ | 208 |
The total lease rental expense was $515 and $511 for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 respectively.

15. | Related Party Transactions |
Accsys Technologies
Tim Paterson-Brown, our former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, was a non-executive director of Accsys Technologies plc (“Accsys”), but resigned from this position on April 6, 2010. Accsys’ subsidiary, Titan Wood Limited (“Titan Wood”), rented space at 66 Hammersmith Road, London W14 8UD, United Kingdom. During the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 respectively, £55 ($89) and £126 ($195) of office related costs were recharged to Titan Wood. At December 31, 2011, Titan Wood is no longer a related party and there was nothing outstanding from Titan Wood.
Moneygate Group
In Fiscal 2009 we purchased 49% of the share capital of Moneygate. On acquisition we provided loan facilities of £250 ($387) for working capital and £2,000 ($3,094) for acquisitions and subsequently entered into various transactions with Moneygate and other non-related parties.
At December 31, 2010, and through to its disposal, Moneygate was a related party. It was considered that the Company had significant influence over its operations and had representation on the board of directors. Due to this significant influence, we account for it under the equity method. Since the investment was acquired at a nominal value, also its fair value, and had incurred losses since we made our investment, it was recorded in the consolidated financial statements at a value of $nil at December 31, 2010.
On January 31, 2011, we entered into a Sale and Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with and Committed Capital Nominees Limited (“Committed”). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, Committed agreed to purchase: (i) all 9,607,843 shares of Moneygate which MGT owned, for consideration of £0.096 ($0.154); and (ii) to novate the benefit of a Facility Agreement dated November 18, 2010, between the Company and Moneygate, for consideration of £250 ($387), resulting in a gain on sale of £51 ($81).
Dunamis Capital
Allan Rowley, former Chief Executive Officer and former Chief Financial Officer of MGT and former Chief Executive Officer of Medicsight, along with David Sumner, former Chairman of Medicsight, are both directors of Dunamis. Dunamis is a United Arab Emirates (“UAE”) registered company regulated by the Dubai Financial Services Authority (“DFSA”). Dunamis is 100% owned by David Sumner and was set up by Mr. Sumner with Allan Rowley’s financial consulting assistance, as a corporate financing and advisory firm. On September 6, 2010 Medicsight made a short-term loan of $1,100 (£711) to Dunamis. Dunamis paid back the principal of $1,100 (£711) and interest of $48 (£30) on February 6, 2011 and February 10, 2011 respectively.
In February 2011 the Company, following consultation with its nominated advisor noted that as a result of Mr. Sumner’s relationships with both Dunamis and Medicsight, the Loan constituted a related party transaction under Rule 13 of AIM Rules for Companies. Rule 13 requires that an AIM company must issue notification without delay as soon as the terms of a transaction with a related party are agreed. The independent directors, having consulted with the Company’s nominated adviser, considered the terms of the transaction fair and reasonable insofar as shareholders were concerned. On February 18, 2011 the Company issued a notice detailing the terms of the transaction with the related party.
Laddcap Value Partners III LLC (“Laddcap”)
On April 12, 2011 the Company entered into a Revolving Line of Credit and Security Agreement with Laddcap for up to $500 for a fifteen month term. The Agreement encompasses a standby commitment fee of two (2%) percent of the maximum loan amount along with an eight (8%) percent interest charge on any funds drawn. Laddcap is a related party as the Managing Partner and beneficial owner of Laddcap is a shareholder and CEO of MGT. No amounts have been drawn down against the facility as of the date of the filing of the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.
D4D Limited
Effective July 29, 2010, the Company entered into a service agreement with D4D Limited (“D4D”), a company that offers Executive Services for small and mid-cap companies. D4D is owned by Tim Paterson-Brown and Allan Rowley, and pursuant to the agreement, provided the services of Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer to the Company. The D4D service agreement provided the services of Tim Paterson-Brown and Allan Rowley on similar remuneration to their previous employment contracts with MGT.
F-20 |
On executing the contract with D4D on July 29, 2010, Tim Paterson-Brown and Allan Rowley terminated their employment contracts with MGT, but still held the offices of Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, respectively.
On December 13, 2010 Tim Paterson-Brown resigned as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of MGT. Effective December 13, 2010 and following the resignation of David Sumner on November 23, 2010, Tim Paterson-Brown became Chairman of Medicsight, the Company’s significant subsidiary. As such, an agreement between Medicsight and D4D was entered into for the provision of the services of an Executive Chairman. On February 18, 2011, Tim Paterson-Brown subsequently resigned as Chairman of Medicsight and was entitled to receive, and was paid on February 18, 2011, a severance amount of £144 ($223).
On December 13, 2010 Allan Rowley resigned as Chief Financial Officer and took up office of Chief Executive Officer for MGT. Subsequently, Mr. Rowley resigned on February 7, 2011, to focus on the operations of Medicsight and held the position of Chief Executive Officer of Medicsight until July 26, 2011, when he tendered and the board of directors accepted his resignation.
On April 12, 2011, the agreement with D4D was renegotiated and a settlement agreement between MGT and D4D, Tim Paterson-Brown and Allan Rowley was executed and delivered. Under the settlement agreement, the following payments and assignments were agreed to be made by the Company to D4D: £110 ($170) settlement fee, £80 ($124) recoverable local taxes, £17 ($25) estimated legal expense and the assignment of 1.25 million shares of MDST common stock held by the Company to D4D. The common stock was delivered to D4D on April 28, 2011 and had a fair value of $71 on the date of transfer. The parties, upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the settlement agreement and to the extent permitted by law, settled all claims arising out of the D4D Agreement and the respective directorships and employment arrangements with the Company and certain of its affiliates. The Company has fully accrued and expensed all related costs.
During the year ended December 31, 2011 MGT and Medicsight made payments to D4D, totalling $304 (2010: $511) and $315 (2010: $31) respectively.

16. | Loans receivable — related party |
Moneygate
In Fiscal 2009 we purchased 49% of the share capital of Moneygate. On acquisition we provided loan facilities of £250 ($398) for working capital and £2,000 ($3,094) for acquisitions and subsequently entered into various transactions with Moneygate and other non-related parties.
On December 31, 2010, the loan to Moneygate of £1,485 ($2,298) was impaired by £1,286 ($1,985) and had a carrying value of £199 ($308), based on a valuation from an outside firm. Moneygate was sold on March 29, 2011 for a consideration of £250 ($387), giving a gain on disposal of £51 ($81) (see note 6).
Dunamis
On September 6, 2010 Medicsight made a short-term loan of $1,100 (£711) to Dunamis repayable by December 31, 2010, along with $36 (£23) of interest. Dunamis paid back the principal of $1,100 (£711) and interest of $48 (£31) on February 6, 2011 and February 10, 2011 respectively. The funds were lent to Dunamis in order to achieve a higher rate of interest than we would have on deposit with a financial institution and also to demonstrate Medicsight’s financial ability to co-invest with a joint venture in the region using one of its UAE subsidiaries. Dunamis had provided the assets of the business as collateral against the loan made by Medicsight. Dunamis was considered a related party as two former directors of Medicsight were also directors of Dunamis Capital (see note 16).
17. | Line of credit facility |
