1. Organization, basis of presentation and liquidity
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of MGT Capital Investments, Inc. (“MGT”, “the Company”, “the Group”, “we”, “us”) have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 8-03 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, have been included. Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any subsequent quarter or for the year ending December 31, 2011. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its majority owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
MGT is a holding company. We currently have a controlling interest in our operating subsidiary, Medicsight plc (“Medicsight”). We also have wholly owned subsidiaries MGT Capital Investments (U.K.) 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 is listed on the AIM Market of the London Stock Exchange (Ticker symbol “MDST”) and 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 Company has also developed an automated CO2 insufflation device (MedicCO2LON) which it commercializes through a global distributor. On May 19, 2011, Medicsight’s software received clearance from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA"). The Company currently has limited revenue as it attempts to commercialize its recent U.S. approval and has responded to a request in Japan from the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare (“MHLW”) regulatory authorities for additional information relating to the reliability audit phase of their review. As a result of a settlement agreement entered into with D4D (a related party) on April 12, 2011, 1.25 million shares of MDST common stock held by the Company were assigned to D4D on April 28, 2011. The Company also sold 1.0 million shares of Medicsight via open market sales on London’s AIM exchange. As of June 30, 2011 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.
|
The Company has incurred significant operating losses since inception and is generating losses from operations. As a result, the Company has generated negative cash flows from operations and has an accumulated deficit of $278,420 at June 30, 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 June 30, 2011 Medicsight’s cash and cash equivalents were $5,446.
At June 30, 2011 MGT’s cash and cash equivalents were $258. On April 12, 2011 the Company entered into a Revolving Line of Credit and Security Agreement (“Agreement”) with Laddcap Value Partners, LP (“Laddcap”), a related party, 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 (see note 14).
Currently the Company has sufficient cash on hand and availability in the line of credit facility with Laddcap to continue operations through October 2011, at which point the Company may need to seek additional sources of financing. There is no guarantee that additional sources will be available at terms acceptable to the Company or at all.
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.
9
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 ratably over the term of the maintenance and support arrangements.
Multiple-element arrangements — the Company enters into arrangements with resellers that include a combination of software products, maintenance and support. For such arrangements, the Company recognizes revenue using the 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 goods and orders are satisfied and goods are delivered to our distribution partner. The Company generally offers terms which require payments with 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 do not intend to pay dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. The expected forfeiture rate is estimated based on historical experience.
10
Determining the appropriate fair value model and calculating the fair value of equity-based payment awards require 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.
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.
Fair value of financial instruments
The Company’s financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, account receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses, which are short-term in nature. The Company believes the carrying value of these financial instruments reasonably approximates their fair value. At December 31, 2010, the Company had a receivable due from Dunamis Capital (“Dunamis”) of $1,136 that represented a concentration of credit risk. In February 2011, the Company received the total outstanding amounts due.
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.
11
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 June 30, 2011 and December 31, 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 six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010. Tax years beginning in 2004 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 six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 excludes all options and restricted stock because they are anti-dilutive due to the loss. For the six months ended June 30, 2011 there were 10,274,167 options excluded with a weighted average exercise price of $0.24 per share. For the six months ended June 30, 2010 there were 10,751,898 options excluded with a weighted average exercise price of $0.89 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), such as foreign currency translation adjustments and unrealized gains and losses on certain marketable securities, are separately classified in the consolidated financial statements. Such items are reported in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Stockholders’ Equity as accumulated other income/(loss).
Segment reporting
The Company reports the results of its operating segments. The Company designates the internal organization that is used by management for making operating decisions and assessing performance as the source of the Company’s reportable segments. The Company also discloses information about products and services, geographic areas and major customers. The Company operates in one main operational segment, Medicsight, a medical imaging and device hardware company, with MGT 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 installments through March 2011. On August 30, 2010, at the request of the third party, and in discussion and negotiation with management, it was agreed that the remaining installments would be modified. In accordance with this, as of December 31, 2010 £506 ($766) had been received. The final installment of £244 ($370) was paid on March 29, 2011.
The investments disposed of and the related consideration is as follows:

Eurindia Limited (“Eurindia”) and the XShares Group, Inc. (“XShares”) convertible notes and equity investment had been fully impaired so the consideration received represents the gain on sale recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. At March 31, 2010, HipCricket, Inc. (“HipCricket”) carrying value was $224, therefore a loss on disposal of $19 was recorded on March 31, 2010 (see note 6).
Before their disposal, Medicexchange Limited and Medicexchange Inc. were consolidated into the MGT condensed consolidated financial statements. Consideration of $928 was allocated to Medicexchange and MGT recorded a gain on sale 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 up to the date of disposal, March 31, 2010.
Medicexchange’s operating results for the three and six months ending June 30, 2011 and 2010 are as follows.

4. Cash and cash equivalents
We invest our cash in short-term deposits with major banks. As of June 30, 2011 we held $5,704 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 maintains its cash and cash equivalents at major financial institutions in Europe, United States of America (“USA”), United Arab Emirates (“UAE”) and Australia. Cash held in foreign institutions is not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and amounted to $5,694 at June 30, 2011 and $8,433 at December 31, 2010. The Company periodically evaluates the relative credit standing of financial institutions considered in its cash investment strategy.

5. Loans receivable — related party
Moneygate
In Fiscal 2009 we purchased 49% of the share capital of Moneygate. Moneygate was a related party as we had significant influence over it and had representation on its board of directors. On acquisition we provided loan facilities of £250 ($398) for working capital and £2,000 ($3,186) for acquisitions. In the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, the Company advanced a £250 ($398) working capital facility and £100 ($159) as part of a £2,000 ($3,186) acquisition facility to Moneygate, which was all outstanding at the year end. In the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 we allowed a portion of the acquisition facility to be used for working capital as acquisitions had been delayed and Moneygate still required cash to fund its operations.
On August 3, 2010, Moneygate agreed to convert all monies advanced to July 31, 2010 £1,247 ($1,999), and future monies up to £2,000 ($3,207) in total into convertible loan notes. At this time, it was agreed that no further interest would be charged on the loan for acquisitions.
Also on August 3, 2010, MGT Capital Investments Limited (“MGT Ltd”), a company incorporated in England and Wales, and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into an agreement with an unrelated third party for the sale of its Moneygate convertible loan note of £2,000 ($3,207). Under the terms of the above agreement MGT Ltd further advanced working capital funding. At November 18, 2010, MGT had advanced £1,025 ($1,643) for working capital and £460 ($738) for acquisitions. The additional funds were to be offset against the staged payments of the £2,000 ($3,207) loan note sale.
On November 18, 2010 the previously executed agreement to sell the Moneygate convertible loan notes of up to £2,000 ($3,207) to a third party was terminated. Following deeds of release between MGT Ltd and Moneygate; and MGT Ltd and the third party; MGT Ltd extended a loan agreement to Moneygate to fix its amount repayable at £1,485 ($2,381). This loan agreement was repayable on or before two (2) years after the effective date. The loan accrued 5% interest per annum and was secured by a debenture over the assets of Moneygate. No further monies were advanced to Moneygate.
Prior to commencing negotiations with Committed Capital Nominees Limited (“Committed”) the Company engaged an outside valuation firm to perform a valuation on the Company’s investment and loan note receivable from Moneygate. This report concluded that on the scenario of Moneygate being unsuccessful in raising adequate finance then the value of the Company’s loan note receivable from Moneygate was £199 ($320). In the third quarter of 2010 we impaired the carrying value of the loan notes receivable to the amount of the valuation and recorded a related impairment charge of £1,286 ($2,061).
On January 31, 2011, we entered into a Sale and Purchase Agreement with Committed (the “Purchase Agreement”). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, Committed has agreed to purchase from the Company and the Company has agreed to sell to Committed (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 the 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 Purchase Agreement was conditional upon the U.K. Financial Services Authority having given its written consent to the change of control of Moneygate. The change of control was approved on March 10, 2011, and the £50 ($80) held in escrow was received by the Company on March 22, 2011. The remaining consideration of £200 ($321) was received by the Company on March 29, 2011.
At December 31, 2010 and through to disposal on March 29, 2011, 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 (see note 12).
Dunamis Capital
On September 6, 2010 Medicsight made a short-term loan of $1,100 (£686) to Dunamis repayable by December 31, 2010, along with $36 (£22) of interest. 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. Dunamis was a related party as two former directors of Medicsight are also directors of Dunamis Capital (see note 12).

6. Investments at cost
We account for investments in non-marketable securities under the cost method of accounting where we own less than a 20% interest in each of the companies and we do not have significant influence over the entity. We continually review each investment to assess for other-than-temporary decreases in value.
Eurindia Limited
In 2000 MGT invested in Eurindia, a U.K. company that invested in IT start-up companies. MGT had a 6% holding in Eurindia and accounted for this investment on a cost basis. As of December 31, 2009 this investment had been fully impaired. On March 31, 2010 we disposed of all of our holding in Eurindia for $1 leading to a gain on sale of $1 (see notes 3 and 7).
XShares Group
In 2007 and 2008 we invested $3,000 in Series C preferred shares of XShares, an investment advisor that creates, issues and supports exchange traded funds with a particular healthcare specialty. In the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009 the Company also invested $2,000 in XShares convertible notes with a principal of $2,100 (see note 7). As of December 31, 2009 the equity investment and the convertible notes were fully impaired. On March 31, 2010 we disposed of all of our equity holdings in XShares for $1 and the convertible notes for $1, leading to a gain on sale of $2 (see notes 3 and 7).
HipCricket, Inc.
In Fiscal 2007 we invested $2,000 in HipCricket, a company engaged in mobile marketing. In the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009 HipCricket Inc. was delisted from the AIM Market and we accounted for it as an investment held at cost. In the year ended December 31, 2009, the investment was written down to $224. On March 31, 2010 we disposed of all of our holdings in HipCricket for $205 resulting in a loss on sale of $19 (see notes 3 and 7).
7. Interest and other income (and expense)
We had the following other income and expense amounts:

The following weighted average assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of stock options granted during the six months ended June 30, 2010:

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

Issuance of restricted shares
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 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. The restricted shares were valued at their fair market value on date of issue, of which the share-based compensation expense will be recognized over their vesting period.

12. 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, rented space at 66 Hammersmith Road, London W14 8UD, United Kingdom. During the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 respectively, £55 ($89) and £70 ($106) of office related costs were recharged to Titan Wood Limited. At June 30, 2011 there was nothing outstanding from Titan Wood Limited.
Moneygate Group
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 ($3,186) 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 and 2009.
On January 31, 2011, we entered into a Sale and Purchase Agreement with Committed (the “Purchase Agreement”). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, Committed has agreed to purchase from the Company and the Company has agreed to sell to Committed: (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 Purchase Agreement was conditional upon the U.K. Financial Services Authority having given its written consent to the change of control of Moneygate. The change of control was approved on March 10, 2011, the £50 ($80) held in escrow was received by the Company on March 22, 2011. The remaining 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 (£686) to Dunamis.
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. Furthermore, the Board is currently undertaking a full review of the Company’s internal procedures in consultation with the Company’s nominated adviser. The Company is also is exploring setting up an AIM compliance committee to ensure that the Company is acting in accordance with AIM Rules.

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 ($231).
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 ($178) settlement fee, £80 ($130) recoverable local taxes, £17 ($28) 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 June 30, 2011 only the estimated legal expenses of £17 ($28) remain accrued and unpaid.
During the six months ended June 30, 2011 MGT and Medicsight made payments to D4D, totaling $304 and $315 respectively.

13. 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 are approximately £330 ($529) per annum, paid quarterly in advance. The Company has 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 will be on a month-to-month basis beginning August 1, 2011 with total monthly rental payments of £8($13) along with a rental deposit of £16 ($26). As such minimum rental payments subsequent to this date have not been included in the schedule below.
We also have a satellite office in Tokyo, Japan, with a two-year rental agreement that began in March 2010.

These payments have been expensed to the income statement and classified as research and development.
14. Line of credit facility
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.

In addition we also have a controlling interest in our operating subsidiary, Medicsight Plc, including its wholly owned subsidiaries.
Medicsight is a medical technology company focusing on medical imaging software development and medical hardware devices. The Company is listed on the AIM Market of the London Stock Exchange (Ticker symbol “MDST”) and 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. FDA. Revenue is presently limited as Medicsight attempts to commercialize its recent U.S. approval. Medicsight has also responded to a request in Japan from the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare (“MHLW”) regulatory authorities for additional information relating to the reliability audit phase of their review. Medicsight has also developed an automated CO2 medical inflation device and associated disposable tubing (MedicCO2LON) that is being commercialized via a global distributor. On June 30, 2011, the Company held 83.75 million shares (53.85%) of the 155.5 million issued share capital of Medicsight.
At June 30, 2011 the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $5,704 compared to $8,434 as of December 31, 2010. The decrease is mainly attributable to cash used in operating activities ($5,123), offset by cash received in investing activities $1,981.
On January 31, 2011, the Company 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 from the Company and the Company agreed to sell to Committed: (i) all 9,607,843 shares of Moneygate which MGT owned, for consideration of £0.096 ($0.154); and (ii) novated the benefit of a Facility Agreement dated November 18, 2010, between the Company and Moneygate, for consideration of £250 ($401), recording a gain on sale of £50 ($81). The Purchase Agreement was conditional upon the U.K. Financial Services Authority having given its written consent to the change of control of Moneygate. The change of control was approved on March 10, 2011, the £50 ($80) held in escrow was received by the Company on March 22, 2011. The remaining consideration of £200 ($321) was received by the Company on March 29, 2011.
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 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.
As a result of the settlement agreement entered into with D4D Limited (“D4D”) 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.
During the quarter ended June 30, 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 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.
23
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. If the plan is accepted, and periodic reviews by the Exchange confirm progress consistent with the plan, the Company will continue its listing during the 18-month plan period. Otherwise, the Company will be subject to delisting procedures as set forth in the Exchange Company Guide. The Company would have the right to appeal any such determination. However, there is no assurance of success throughout this process.
The Company's stock trading symbol will remain MGT, but will include a ".BC" appendage to denote its noncompliance. The trading symbol will bear this additional indicator until the Company regains its compliance with the NYSE Amex 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. See “Controls and Procedures” included in Item 4 of Part I to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
On July 8, 2011 due to ongoing 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 NYSE Amex. There can be no assurance that trading will resume on NYSE Amex in MGT's common stock.

In the three months ended June 30, 2011 Medicsight sold fewer CAD licenses in Europe compared to prior year $20 (2010: $51). U.S. sales require the recently-obtained FDA clearance and a successful commercial ramp with partner integration.
Revenues from MedicCO2LON sales were $197 (2010: $213) in the three months ended June 30, 2011. Cost of revenue for the period was $96 (2010: $114).
In the six months ended June 30, 2011 our operating expenses have seen a marginal increase compared to last year due to costs associated with company restructuring actions incurred in the period to further streamline the Company’s operations.
Research and development is made up of staff, staff related consultancy, stock options and product development software costs expensed on the research and development of Medicsight’s products. In the six months ended June 30, 2011, the expenses decreased by 17% compared to previous year as the Company implements an expense reduction program.
In the six months ended June 30, 2011 stock-option expense declined as the result of forfeitures of options within the period. No new grants were issued in the period.
Interest and other income decreased due to lower cash balances, resulting from cash outflows for continuing operations, generating lower interest than in 2010.

Other Investments: Moneygate Group Limited
In Fiscal 2009 we purchased 49% of the share capital of Moneygate Group Limited (“Moneygate”), a U.K. based firm of Independent Financial Advisors. On acquisition we provided loan facilities of £250 ($398) for working capital and £2,000 ($3,186) for acquisitions. In the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, the Company advanced to Moneygate a £250 ($398) working capital facility and £100 ($159) as part of the acquisition facility, all of which was all outstanding at the year end. In the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 we allowed a portion of the acquisition facility to be used for working capital as acquisitions were delayed and Moneygate required cash to fund its operations.
On August 3, 2010, Moneygate agreed to convert all monies advanced through July 31, 2010, totaling £1,247 ($1,999), as well as any future monies advanced pursuant to the credit facilities into convertible loan notes. Also at this time, it was agreed that no further interest would be charged on the loan amounts outstanding under the acquisition facility.
Also on August 3, 2010 MGT Capital Investments Limited (“MGT Ltd”), a company incorporated in England and Wales, and a wholly owned subsidiary of MGT, entered into an agreement with an unrelated third party for the sale of its Moneygate convertible loan notes. Under the terms of this agreement MGT Ltd provided further working capital and acquisition funding to Moneygate. At November 18, 2010, MGT had advanced to Moneygate a total of £1,025 ($1,643) for working capital and £460 ($738) for acquisitions. The added funding was to be offset at the closing of the convertible note sale.
On November 18, 2010 the previously executed agreement to sell the Moneygate convertible loan notes to a third party was terminated. Following deeds of release between MGT Ltd and Moneygate, and MGT Ltd and the third party, MGT Ltd and Moneygate reached an agreement to convert the convertible loan notes into a new two-year secured term loan. The principal amount repayable of £1,485 ($2,381) accrued 5% interest per annum, and was secured by a debenture over the assets of Moneygate. No further monies were advanced to Moneygate after this date.
Prior to commencing negotiations with Committed Capital Nominees Limited (“Committed”) the Company engaged an outside valuation firm to perform a valuation on the Company’s equity investment and loan note receivable from Moneygate. This report concluded that the value of the Company’s loan note receivable from Moneygate was £199 ($320). In the third quarter of 2010, we impaired the carrying value of the loan notes receivable to the amount of the valuation and recorded a related impairment charge of £1,286 ($2,061).
On January 31, 2011, we entered into a Sale and Purchase Agreement with Committed whereby Committed agreed to purchase from the Company and the Company has agreed to sell to Committed (i) all 9,607,843 shares of Moneygate which MGT owned, for consideration of £0.096 ($0.154); and (ii) to cancel the benefit of a Facility Agreement dated November 18, 2010, between the Company and Moneygate, for consideration of £250 ($401). The Purchase Agreement was conditional upon the written consent of the U.K. Financial Services Authority approving change of control of Moneygate. The change of control was approved on March 10, 2011, and on March 22, 2011, the Company received £50 ($80) held in escrow. The remaining consideration of £200 ($321) was received by the Company on March 29, 2011.
Effective March 22, 2011, Moneygate is no longer a related party as the Company no longer has significant influence over its operations nor representation on the board of directors.
Other Investments: Eurindia Limited / XShares Group, Inc. / HipCricket Inc.
On March 31, 2010, following a detailed strategic review we reduced our on-going operating cost base and disposed of our investments in XShares Group Inc. (“XShares”), HipCricket, Inc. (“HipCricket”) and Eurindia Limited (“Eurindia”).
Eurindia Limited
In 2000 MGT invested in Eurindia, a U.K. company that invested in IT start-up companies. MGT had a 6% holding in Eurindia and accounted for this investment on a cost basis. As of December 31, 2009 this investment had been fully impaired. On March 31, 2010 we disposed of all of our holding in Eurindia for $1.
XShares Group
In 2007 and 2008 we invested $3,000 in Series C preferred shares of XShares, an investment advisor that creates, issues and supports exchange traded funds with a particular healthcare specialty. In the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009 the Company invested $2,000 in XShares convertible notes with a principal of $2,100. As of December 31, 2009 the equity investment and the convertible notes had been fully impaired. On March 31, 2010 we disposed of all of our equity holdings in XShares for $1 and the convertible notes for $1 resulting in a total gain on sale of $2.
26
HipCricket Inc.
In Fiscal 2007 we invested $2,000 in HipCricket, a company engaged in mobile marketing. In the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009 HipCricket Inc. was delisted from the AIM Market and we accounted for it as an investment held at cost. As of December 31, 2009 the investment was held at a book value of $224. On March 31, 2010 we disposed of all of our holding in HipCricket for $205.

At June 30, 2011 Medicsight’s cash and cash equivalents were $5,446. The company continues to monitor current expense levels and the required expenditures to successfully launch its software in the U.S.
At June 30, 2011 MGT’s cash and cash equivalents were $258, excluding amounts attributable to Medicsight. On April 12, 2011 the Company entered into a Revolving Line of Credit and Security Agreement (“Agreement”) with Laddcap, a related party, 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. No amounts have been drawn down against the facility on the date of the filing of the Company’s Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2011.
Currently the Company has sufficient cash on hand and availability in the line of credit facility with Laddcap to continue operations through October 2011, at which point the Company may need to seek additional sources of financing. There is no guarantee that addiitonal sources will be available at terms acceptable to the Company or at all. Our ratio of current assets to current liabilities remains strong at 4.5 as a result of the $5,704 of cash held in the Company.
Operating Activities
Our cash and cash equivalents have decreased during 2011 predominantly because of $5,123 used in operating activities. Our net cash used in operating activities differs from net loss predominantly because of various non-cash adjustments such as stock-based compensation and movements in working capital.
Investing Activities
Investment in Medicexchange
Medicexchange was sold during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 and $1,101 of cash was disposed of as part of this transaction, also included within investing activities. For consideration of this sale along with other assets sold at the same time MGT was due to receive £750 ($1,136). This consideration was deferred and paid in installments through March 2011. As of December 31, 2010 £506 ($766) had been received. The final outstanding payment of £244 ($370) was received on March 25, 2011.
27
Investment in Moneygate
On January 31, 2011, we entered into a Sale and Purchase Agreement with Committed whereby Committed agreed to purchase from the Company and the Company has agreed to sell to Committed (i) all 9,607,843 shares of Moneygate which MGT owned, for consideration of £0.096 ($0.154); and (ii) to cancel the benefit of a Facility Agreement dated November 18, 2010, between the Company and Moneygate, for consideration of £250 ($401). The Purchase Agreement was conditional upon the written consent of the U.K. Financial Services Authority approving change of control of Moneygate. The change of control was approved on March 10, 2011, and on March 22, 2011, the Company received £50 ($80) held in escrow. The remaining consideration of £200 ($321) was received by the Company on March 29, 2011.
Loan Receivable from Dunamis Capital
On September 6, 2010 Medicsight made a short-term loan of $1,100 (£686) to Dunamis, a related party, repayable by December 31, 2010, along with $36 (£22) of interest. 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.
Financing Activities
On April 12, 2011 the Company entered into a Revolving Line of Credit and Security Agreement (“Agreement”) with Laddcap, a related party, 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.
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 ongoing. Our condensed consolidated financial statements include the results and financial condition of our subsidiary, Medicsight. At June 30, 2011 the Company held 83.75 million shares in Medicsight out of Medicsight’s issued share capital of 155,524,904 shares. As of June 30, 2011 Medicsight’s share price was £0.05 ($0.08) compared to £0.04 ($0.07), as of December 31, 2010. At June 30, 2011, this valued the Company’s holdings at £3,978 ($6,372), compared to £3,724 ($5,761) as of December 31, 2010.
Following the settlement agreement entered into on April 12, 2011, 1.25 million shares of MDST common stock held by the Company were transferred to a related party on April 28, 2011. The Company’s overall holding in Medicsight was further reduced by an additional 1.0 million shares during the quarter ended June 30, 2011, as the Company disposed of shares via open market sales on London’s AIM Exchange. These sales generated approximately $110 in net proceeds. As of June 30, 2011 MGT held 83,750,000 shares of the 155,524,904 issued share capital of Medicsight.
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.
28
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. If the plan is accepted, and periodic reviews by the Exchange confirm progress consistent with the plan, the Company will continue its listing during the 18-month plan period. Otherwise, the Company will be subject to delisting procedures as set forth in the Exchange Company Guide. The Company would have the right to appeal any such determination. However, there is no assurance of success throughout this process.
The Company's stock trading symbol will remain MGT, but will include a ".BC" appendage to denote its noncompliance. The trading symbol will bear this additional indicator until the Company regains its compliance with the NYSE Amex continued listing requirements.
On July 8, 2011 due to ongoing 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 NYSE Amex. There can be no assurance that trading will resume on NYSE Amex.

Commitments
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 are approximately £330 ($529) per annum, paid quarterly in advance. The Company has 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 will be on a month-to-month basis beginning August 1, 2011 with total monthly rental payments of £8 ($13) along with a rental deposit of £16 ($26). As such minimum rental payments subsequent to this date have not been included in the schedule below.
We also have a satellite office in Tokyo, Japan, with a two-year rental agreement that began in March 2010.
In July 2008 we entered into an agreement with a partner to develop interfaces for our software. We have committed to pay Euros € 1,445 ($2,079) over an expected thirty-six month period with the option to terminate the agreement with six months written notice. At June 30, 2011 we have paid Euros €845 ($1,215). These payments will be recovered against future royalty payments, should the products be successfully commercialized. These payments have been expensed to the income statement and classified as research and development.
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:

Critical Accounting policies and estimates:
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 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”).
30
Revenue from license fees is recognized when notification of shipment to the end user has occurred, there are no significant Company obligations with regard to implementation and the Company’s services are not considered essential to the functionality of other elements of the arrangement.
Services — Revenue from maintenance and support arrangements is deferred and recognized ratably over the term of the maintenance and support arrangements.
Multiple-element arrangements — the Company enters into arrangements with resellers that include a combination of software products, maintenance and support. For such arrangements, the Company recognizes revenue using the 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 goods and orders are satisfied and goods are delivered to our distribution partner. The Company generally offers terms which require payments with 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 do 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 require 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.
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 concludes 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.
31
Fair value of financial instruments
The Company’s financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, account receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses, which are short-term in nature. The Company believes the carrying value of these financial instruments reasonably approximates their fair value. At December 31, 2010, the Company had a receivable due from Dunamis Capital (“Dunamis”) of $1,136 that represented a concentration of credit risk. In February 2011, the Company received the total outstanding amounts due.
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 June 30, 2011 and December 31, 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 six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010. Tax years beginning in 2004 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.
32
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 six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 excludes all options and restricted stock because they are anti-dilutive due to the loss. For the six months ended June 30, 2011 there were 10,274,167 options excluded with a weighted average exercise price of $0.24 per share. For the six months ended June 30, 2010 there were 10,751,898 options excluded with a weighted average exercise price of $0.89 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), such as foreign currency translation adjustments and unrealized gains and losses on certain marketable securities, are separately classified in the consolidated financial statements. Such items are reported in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Stockholders’ Equity as accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss).
Segment reporting
The Company reports the results of its operating segments. The Company designates the internal organization that is used by management for making operating decisions and assessing performance as the source of the Company’s reportable segments. The Company also discloses information about products and services, geographic areas and major customers. The Company operates in one main operational segment, Medicsight, a medical imaging and device hardware company, with MGT providing corporate management services.
Recent accounting pronouncements
There are no recent accounting pronouncements that have not yet been adopted that the Company believes may have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
Item 3. Quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk
Not applicable.
33
As discussed in Item 9A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, we identified the following material weaknesses: The Company did not properly identify and track matters requiring shareholder approval and notifications. Additionally, during the quarter ended June 30, 2011, the Company identified an additional material weakness: The Company did not identify all related party relationships.
Disclosure controls and procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and accumulated and communicated to management, including our Interim Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q conducted by our management, with the participation of our Interim Chief Executive Officer, our Chief Financial Officer/Principal Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2011 because we are not yet able to conclude that we have remediated the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting identified in Item 9A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 along with the identification of an additional material control weakness of previously undisclosed related party entities.
The certifications of our Interim Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer required in accordance with Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 are attached as exhibits to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The disclosures set forth in this Item 4 contain information concerning (i) the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures referred to in paragraph 4 of the certifications, and (ii) material weaknesses in the design or operation of our internal control over financial reporting referred to in paragraph 5 of those certifications. Those certifications should be read in conjunction with this Item 4 for a more complete understanding of the matters covered by the certifications.
Changes in internal control over financial reporting
While we have taken steps to begin remediation of the material weaknesses previously disclosed, additional measures will be required. 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. However, based upon the preliminary results of the investigation, an additional weakness in internal controls over financial reporting was identified surrounding the identification and disclosure for related party relationships and related party transactions.
We will assess the effectiveness of our remediation efforts in connection with our management's tests of internal control over financial reporting in conjunction with our December 31, 2011 financial statements.
Except as identified above, we have not identified any changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the second quarter of 2011 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 1A. Risk factors
Discussion of our business and operations included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read together with the risk factors set forth below. They describe various risks and uncertainties to which we are or may become subject. These risks and uncertainties, together with other factors described elsewhere in this report, have the potential to affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, strategies or prospects in a material and adverse manner. New risks may emerge at any time, and we cannot predict those risks or estimate the extent to which they may affect 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 just 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.
35
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 June 30, 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 unfavorable 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, a U.K. public company which is 53.85% owned by the 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 public 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. 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.
36
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.
We may not be able to quickly realize our investments and receivables at the value at which we have recorded them.
We have a number of investments and receivables held at both at market value and at cost. There is a risk that we may not be able to swiftly realize these investments and receivables at the fair value or cost at which they are recorded in the financial statements. If we are unable to quickly realize these investments and receivables at prices we believe to be fair, this could have a material effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and future prospects.
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 ongoing basis that we have effective internal controls over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404. Failure to achieve and maintain an effective internal control environment could cause us to face regulatory action and also cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, either of which could have 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.
37
Current deficiency in the Listing Standards of the NYSE Amex Market.
The staff of NYSE Amex has notified the Company that since the Company’s shares have been selling for a substantial period of time at a low price per share, the Company is not in compliance with the NYSE Amex Company Guide’s listing standards for continued listing of the Company’s common stock on the NYSE Amex. In this regard, the Company shall either effect a reverse split of such shares within a reasonable time after being notified that NYSE deems such action to be appropriate under all the circumstances or take other appropriate action in order to maintain the listing of the Company’s common stock on the NYSE Amex. The Company intends to call a stockholder meeting to approve a reverse stock split. There is 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 NYSE Amex’s listing standards.
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 NYSE Amex Market 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.
Trading Halt of MGT and Medicsight’s common stock
Trading in Medicsight’s common stock was halted by the AIM market on July 8, 2011 due to ongoing investigations into related party transactions at Medicsight and, as a consequence, trading in our common stock was also halted by AMEX. Trading in our common stock is currently halted on the AMEX, and a continued halt may harm the trading price of our securities, increase the volatility of the trading price of our securities and make it more difficult for investors to buy or sell shares of our common stock. Medicsight, in coordination with the Company, is currently conducting an investigation into certain related party transactions and we are coordinating with the AMEX and AIM markets to restart trading at the conclusion of the Medicsight investigation. The halt on trading of our shares on AMEX is dependent on the resumption of trading of Medicsight common stock on the AIM. There can be no assurance that the trading halt on our shares of common stock on the AMEX will be lifted. Even if the halt on trading of our common stock is lifted, there can be no assurance that we will be able to regain compliance with AMEX listing standards and continue our listing on the AMEX in the future.
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 ongoing 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. As the investigation is ongoing, 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.
Natural disasters
Impact of Earthquake and Tsunami in Japan.
We do not believe that the recent earthquake and tsunami in Japan has had an impact on employees, intellectual property or clinical data; however, the Company is unable to assess the impact to its MHLW review process at this time.
In the six months ended June 30, 2011 no shares of common stock were issued.
None.
