Note 1: Organization

MGT Capital Investments, Inc. (“MGT”, “the Company”, “we”, “us”) is a Delaware corporation, incorporated in 2000. The Company was originally incorporated in Utah in 1977. As of June 30, 2013, MGT is comprised of the parent company, majority-owned subsidiary MGT Gaming, Inc. (“MGT Gaming”) and wholly-owned subsidiaries Medicsight, Inc. (“Medicsight”), MGT Capital Solutions, Inc. (d/b/a “Hammercat Studios”), and MGT Sports, Inc. (“MGT Sports”) including its majority owned subsidiary FanTD LLC (“FanTD”). Our Corporate office is located in Harrison, New York.

MGT and its subsidiaries are primarily engaged in the business of acquiring, developing and monetizing assets in the online and mobile gaming space.

On April 16, 2013, the Company entered into a Asset Purchase Agreement to acquire certain assets and liabilities of Digital Angel Corporation, a developer and publisher of mobile games designed for tablets and smartphones.

On May 20, 2013, MGT Sports completed the acquisition of 63.12% of the outstanding membership interests of FanTD LLC. FanTD operates a daily fantasy sports website at www.fanthrowdown.com. Launched in 2012, FanThrowdown.com offers players the opportunity to participate in real money daily fantasy gameplay for the NFL, MLB, NCAA (basketball & football), NHL, NBA and professional golf. Players select a roster of athletes across most of the popular sports, and winnings are determined by the same-day performance of these rosters. Daily fantasy sports compress the timeframe of traditional fantasy sports from multi-month seasons into 24-hour periods.

MGT Gaming owns U. S. Patent No. 7,892,088 entitled "Gaming Device Having a Second Separate Bonusing Event" (“the ‘088 Patent”) relating to casino gaming systems and is seeking to enforce its proprietary rights against possible infringers. The ‘088 Patent relates to a gaming system in which a second game played on an interactive sign is triggered once specific events occur in a first game. On November 2, 2012, MGT Gaming filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Mississippi (Jackson Division) alleging patent infringement against multiple companies believed to be violating the ‘088 Patent. The lawsuit alleges the defendants Caesars Entertainment (NASDAQ GS: CZR), MGM Resorts International, Inc. (NYSE: MGM), WMS Gaming, Inc. - a subsidiary of WMS Industries, Inc. (NYSE: WMS), Penn National Gaming, Inc. (NASDAQ GS: PENN), and Aruze Gaming America, Inc. either manufacture, sell or lease gaming systems in violation of MGT Gaming's patent rights, or operate casinos that offer gaming systems in violation of MGT Gaming's patent rights. An amended version of the complaint was later filed on December 17, 2012.

The allegedly infringing products manufactured, distributed, used, sold and/or offered for sale by defendants include at least those identified under the trade names: "Pirate Battle," "Battleship," "Clue," "Monopoly," "Rich Life," "Amazon Fishing Competition," "Massive Fishing Competition," "Big Game Competition," "Jackpot Battle Royal," "Wizard of Oz Journey to Oz," "The Great and Powerful Oz," and "Paradise Fishing." On January 3, 2013, WMS (joined by Caesars and MGM) moved to sever the litigation against each defendant into separate actions and to transfer the action against WMS to the Northern District of Illinois and to dismiss the case. Later that same month defendants Aruze Gaming America, Inc. and Penn National Gaming, Inc. filed motions to dismiss and motions to transfer venue to Nevada and Pennsylvania, respectively. Responsive and reply briefs have been filed and these motions are now fully briefed. As of August 6, 2013, the court has not made any decisions on these motions. In addition, on March 21, 2013, Aruze filed a separate action in Nevada seeking a declaratory judgment that Aruze does not infringe the '088 Patent and/or that the '088 Patent is invalid or unenforceable. On June 25, 2013, the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Mississippi issued a Notice of Hearing setting a Markman Hearing (also known as a Claims Construction Hearing) for June 5, 2014 at 9:00 AM local time in Jackson, MS before the Honorable District Judge Carlton W. Reeves.

Medicsight owns a medical imaging software product and a medical hardware device. The computer-aided detection software ColonCAD™ assists radiologists with detection of colorectal polyps, and has received regulatory approvals including CE Mark and U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) clearance. The Company also has developed an automated carbon dioxide insufflation device and receives royalties on a per unit basis from an international manufacturer. On June 30, 2013, the Company completed the sale of its global patent portfolio of Medicsight to Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. for gross proceeds of $1,500.

MGT Capital Solutions is anticipated to be a publisher and developer of videogames for digital distribution in the mobile app space.

Note 2: Liquidity and financial condition

The Company has incurred significant operating losses since inception and continues to generate losses from operations. As a result, the Company has generated negative cash flows from operations and has an accumulated deficit of $289,149 at June 30, 2013. The Company is operating in a competitive industry based on changing technology and its primary source of funds to date has been through the issuance of securities. Moreover, going forward, there can be no assurance that the Company’s products or patent monetization strategy will be successful in generating earnings for the Company.

At June 30, 2013, MGT’s cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash totaled $7,137, which includes $50 held in MGT Gaming and $143 in FanTD. Management believes that the current level of working capital is sufficient to maintain operations into September 2014. It is possible that some acquisitions may require the Company to raise capital; such capital may not be available on terms acceptable to the Company, if at all. To date, the purchase price of acquisitions has been funded primarily through the issuance of the Company’s equity securities to the sellers.

Note 3: Summary of significant accounting policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements 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.  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 /A for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012, as filed with the SEC on March 29, 2013 and amended as of May 31, 2013. Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2013, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any subsequent quarter or for the year ending December 31, 2013. 

Principles of consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of our Company plus our majority-owned subsidiary, MGT Gaming and wholly-owned subsidiaries, Medicsight, MGT Capital Solutions and MGT Sports. MGT Sports owns a majority interest in FanTD LLC. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. Non-controlling interest represents the minority equity investment in MGT subsidiaries, plus the minority investors’ share of the net operating results and other components of equity relating to the non-controlling interest.

Use of estimates

The preparation of the condensed 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 condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Software developed for internal use

The Company follows Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 350-40 “Intangibles-Internal Use Software” on accounting for the costs of computer software developed or obtained for internal use. Costs incurred during the preliminary stage are expensed as incurred by the Company. Certain qualifying costs incurred during the application development stage are capitalized as property, equipment and software by the Company. The Company begins capitalization when the preliminary project stage is complete and it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform the function intended.

Intangible assets

Estimates of future cash flows and timing of events for evaluating long-lived assets for impairment are based upon management’s judgment. If any of our intangible or long-lived assets are considered to be impaired, the amount of impairment to be recognized is the excess of the carrying amount of the assets over its fair value. Applicable long-lived assets are amortized or depreciated over the shorter of their estimated useful lives, the estimated period that the assets will generate revenue, or the statutory or contractual term in the case of patents. Estimates of useful lives and periods of expected revenue generation are reviewed periodically for appropriateness and are based upon management’s judgment.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The Company is required to perform impairment reviews at each of its reporting units annually and more frequently in certain circumstances.

In accordance with ASC 350-20 “Goodwill”, the Company is able to make a qualitative assessment of whether it is more likely than not that a reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying amount before applying the two-step goodwill impairment test. If the Company concludes that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is not less than its carrying amount it is not required to perform the two-step impairment test for that reporting unit.

Revenue recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when it is realized or realizable and earned. We consider 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. Our material revenue streams are related to the delivery of software license fees, maintenance services, hardware, consulting services and gaming fees. We enter into revenue arrangements that may consist of multiple deliverables of software and services due to the needs of its customers. In addition to these general revenue recognition criteria, the following specific revenue recognition policies are followed:

Multiple-element arrangements — the Company enters into arrangements with visualization solution partners and original equipment manufacturers. For such arrangements, the Company recognizes revenue using the Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements. For our multiple-element arrangements, deliverables are separated into more than one unit of accounting when (i) the delivered element(s) have value to the customer on a stand-alone basis, and (ii) delivery of the undelivered element(s) is probable and substantially in our control.

The revenue allocated to each deliverable will then be recorded in accordance with existing revenue recognition guidance for stand-alone component sales and services.

The Company generally offers terms that require payment 30 – 45 days from invoicing. Provided that 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 (iii) 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.

Maintenance — Revenue from maintenance and support arrangements is deferred and recognized ratably over the term of the maintenance and support arrangements.

Related Parties

The Company follows ASC 850-10 “Related Party Disclosures-Overall” for the identification of related parties and disclosure of related party transactions.

Pursuant to ASC 850-10 the related parties include (a.) affiliates of the Company; (b.) entities for which investments in their equity securities would be required, absent the election of the fair value option under the Fair Value Option Subsection of Section 825–10–15, to be accounted for by the equity method by the investing entity; (c.) trusts for the benefit of employees, such as pension and profit-sharing trusts that are managed by or under the trusteeship of management; (d.) principal owners of the Company; (e.) management of the Company; (f.) other parties with which the Company may deal if one party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests; and (g.) other parties that can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the transacting parties or that have an ownership interest in one of the transacting parties and can significantly influence the other to an extent that one or more of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests.

The financial statements shall include disclosures of material related party transactions, other than compensation arrangements, expense allowances, and other similar items in the ordinary course of business. However, disclosure of transactions that are eliminated in the preparation of consolidated or combined financial statements is not required in those statements. The disclosures shall include: (a.) the nature of the relationship(s) involved; (b.) a description of the transactions, including transactions to which no amounts or nominal amounts were ascribed, for each of the periods for which income statements are presented, and such other information deemed necessary to an understanding of the effects of the transactions on the financial statements; (c.) the dollar amounts of transactions for each of the periods for which income statements are presented and the effects of any change in the method of establishing the terms from that used in the preceding period; and (d.) amounts due from or to related parties as of the date of each balance sheet presented and, if not otherwise apparent, the terms and manner of settlement.

Income taxes

The Company applies the elements of 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 31, 2013, and December 31, 2012, 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 31, 2013, and 2012.  Tax years beginning in 2009 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.

Income/ (loss) per share

Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net earnings (loss) per common share is determined using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, adjusted for the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents.

The computation of diluted loss per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, excludes 15,512 Common Shares issuable upon conversion of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, 3,015,807 warrants, 177,336 unvested restricted shares, and 300,000 restricted shares issued to FanTD subject to escrow, as they are anti-dilutive due to the Company’s net loss. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, six (6) stock options are excluded because they are anti-dilutive due to the Company’s net loss.

Note 4: Asset Purchase and Acquisition of a Business

Asset Purchase – Mobile Gaming

On May 2, 2013, the Company purchased certain mobile game application assets from Digital Angel Corporation. The purchase price consisted of a cash payment in the amount of $136 and 50,000 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock with an aggregate fair value of $203 as of the date this transaction was completed. The Company determined the acquisition constitutes a purchase of assets in accordance with guidance of ASC 805 Business combinations.

The following table summarizes the Company’s allocation of the purchase price to the separable components of the mobile applications based on their relative fair values at the date the purchase was completed.

Acquisition of FanTD LLC

On May 20, 2013, the Company completed the acquisition (the “Acquisition”) of 63.12% of the outstanding membership interests of FanTD in exchange for an aggregate purchase of $3,220 consisting of 600,000 shares of MGT common stock at a fair value of $5.03 per share for a total of $3,018 and a cash payment of $202. The fair value of the 36.88% non-controlling interest retained by the sellers in this transaction amounted to $1,882. The Company acquired FanTD, marking the Company’s initial venture in the online and mobile gaming and wagering space.

The Company recorded the purchase of FanTD using the acquisition method of accounting as specified in ASC 805 “Business Combinations.” This method of accounting requires the acquirer to (i) record purchase consideration issued to sellers in a business combination at fair value on the date control is obtained, (ii) determine the fair value of any non-controlling, and (iii) allocate the purchase consideration to all tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their acquisition date fair values. Further, the Company commenced reporting the results of FanTD on a consolidated basis with those of the Company effective upon the date of the acquisition.

The following tables summarizes the preliminary estimated fair values of the net liabilities assumed and the allocation of the aggregate fair value of the purchase consideration, non-controlling interest and net liabilities assumed identifiable and unidentifiable intangible assets:

The following table summarizes, on an unaudited pro forma basis, the results of operations of the Company as though the acquisition had occurred as of January 1, 2012. The pro forma amounts give effect to appropriate adjustments of amortization of intangible assets and interest expense associated with the financing of the purchase. The pro forma amounts presented are not necessarily indicative of either the actual operation results had the acquisition transaction occurred as of January 1, 2012.

Fantasy Sports Live

On June 25, 2013, MGT Sports acquired Fantasy Sports Live, which is effectively a customer list associated with a specific gaming application for $30 in cash and the assumption of a $46 customer deposit liability.

Note 5: Sale of patents

On June 30, 2013, MGT Capital Investments Inc. (the “Company”) closed the sale of its portfolio of medical imaging patents to Samsung Electronics Co, Ltd. (“Samsung”). The Company had no prior relationship with Samsung. Gross proceeds of $1,500 was reduced by a broker commission of $501 paid to Munich Innovation Group GmbH, foreign withholding tax of $248 and an escrow agent fee of $1. The seller deposited $750 of proceeds into a restricted cash account upon the completion of the sale of which $651 was released to the Company on July 3, 2013. The remaining $99 was retained in escrow pending reclaim of the foreign withholding tax.

Note 6: Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash

MGT invests substantially all its cash in demand deposits and money market accounts with major U. S. banks. As of June 30, 2013, we held $7,137 of cash and cash equivalents, including restricted cash.

Concentrations

As of June 30, 2013, our cash balance was $6,348. Of the total cash balance, $700 is deposited in accounts protected by the U.S. Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.

Restricted cash

Restricted cash includes $750 held in escrow relating to the sale of the Company’s portfolio of medical imaging patents. Proceeds from the patent sale were placed into escrow prior to receipt by the Company pursuant to an escrow agreement between the Company and Munich Innovations GmbH (Note 5). The escrow agent distributed the escrow deposit accordingly and subject to any deduction per the provisions within the sale of the patent agreement. $39 of restricted cash supports a letter of credit, in lieu of a rental deposit, for our Harrison, NY office lease.

With fewer than 345,012 shares of Preferred Stock outstanding, $2,000 was released out of restricted cash as the Company is no longer subject to the Cash Maintenance provision of the Purchase Agreement under which the Preferred Stock was originally sold in October 2012 (Note 9).

Note 7: Goodwill and Intangible asset

Goodwill represents the difference between purchase cost and the fair value of net assets acquired in business acquisitions. Indefinite lived intangible assets, representing trademarks and trade names, are not amortized unless their useful life is determined to be finite. Long-lived intangible assets are subject to amortization using the straight-line method. Goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets are tested for impairment annually as of June 30, 2013 and more often if a triggering event occurs, by comparing the fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying value. The Company qualitatively assessed whether it was more likely than not that goodwill and indefinite lived intangibles assets impairment existed and concluded that impairment did not exist as of June 30, 2013.

Estimated future annual amortization expense as of:

On May 11, 2012, the Company entered into a Contribution and Sale Agreement (the “Sale Agreement”) with J&S Gaming, Inc. (“J&S”), and MGT Gaming, Inc. (“MGT Gaming”) for the acquisition of U.S. Patent #7,892,088, entitled “Gaming Device Having a Second Separate Bonusing Event” (“The Patent”). The Patent acquired was recorded at its estimated fair value of $1,913 at the date of closing in exchange for $200 cash and a four (4) year warrant to purchase 350,000 shares of the Company’s Common stock at an exercise price of $4.00 per share, subject to certain anti-dilution provisions (the “Warrants”). Due to certain anti-dilution provisions, the Warrants are recorded as a liability, and consequently “marked-to-market” to the fair value at the end of each reporting period. On May 20, 2013, the Company modified the Warrant granted to J&S Gaming to eliminate the anti-dilution provision in the Warrant. The Company paid the holder $25 in cash consideration for the modification. On May 20, 2013, the Company had 403,029 warrants outstanding with a fair value of $1,164 carried as a derivative liability. The signed modification agreement allowed the Company to reclassify the $1,164 from derivative liability into shareholders’ equity. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company recognized a $605 mark-to-market loss and a $363 mark-to-market loss associated to this agreement.

Note 8: Non-Controlling Interest

The Company has the following non-controlling interests:

Note 9: Series A Convertible Preferred Stock

 On April 26, 2013, the Company made an offer to the holders of the Company’s $3.85 Common Stock Purchase Warrants (the “Warrants”), which are held by a limited number of accredited investors providing if such investors exercised one Warrant, they would have the right to exchange up to two additional Warrants (for each Warrant exercised) for 5/8ths per share of Common Stock per Warrant exchanged. The results of the offer were that holders of 715,742 Warrants elected to exercise their Warrants. The Warrants had a fair value of $1,680 carried as a derivative liability on the exercise date. The Warrants were fair valued based upon the following Black Scholes Model (“BSM”): risk free rate 0.68%-0.85%; expected term five (4.44) years; annual volatility 75%; exercise price $3.85, market value of $3.90-$4.27 per share. The exercise of the Warrants allowed the Company to reclassify $1,680 from derivative liability into shareholders’ equity. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company recognized a $517 mark-to-market loss and $30 mark-to-market loss associated to this agreement.

On May 20, 2013, the Company entered into Warrant Waiver Agreements with four holders of Warrants who collectively held more than 60% of the Warrants issued on October 29, 2012. Per the original Warrants, approval of the holders of 60% of the Warrants triggers the modification in all Warrants in the series. The change addresses the ability of warrant holders to redeem the Warrants for cash in a “Fundamental Transaction” as defined in the warrant to provide that the Warrant holders shall not have the right to redeem the Warrants for cash in any Fundamental Transaction that is not approved by the Company’s Board of Directors or that occurs in a transaction or as a result of an event that was not in the Company’s sole control. The modification changes the accounting treatment of the Warrants. The Company committed to issue an aggregate of 162,460 shares of its common stock in consideration for the modification. Issuance of Preferred Stock and warrants to service providers as compensation for services are subject to shareholder approval. No shares were approved or issued as of June 30, 2013. The Company believes it is more likely than not that the shareholders will approve the issuance of the shares and for the three months ended June 30, 2013, recorded $817 of stock issuance expense. The Company will mark to market the fair value of the stock when issued. On May 20, 2013, the Company had 2,044,982 warrants outstanding with a fair value of $6,525 carried as a derivative liability. The warrants were fair valued based upon the following Black Scholes Model (“BSM”): risk free rate 0.850%; expected term five (4.44) years; annual volatility 75%; exercise price $3.85, market value of $5.03 per share. The signed modification agreement allowed the Company to reclassify the $6,525 from derivative liability into shareholders’ equity. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company recognized a $3,204 mark-to-market loss and $1,811 mark-to-market loss, respectively, associated to this agreement.

During the three months ended June 30, 2013, 1,126,485 shares of Preferred Stock were converted into 1,128,439 shares of MGT Common Stock which included accrued interest on the Preferred Stock. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, 1,400,487 shares of Preferred were converted into 1,400,487 shares of MGT Common Stock. As of June 30, 2013, 15,512 shares of the Preferred Stock remains outstanding, which includes 231 Dividend Shares of Preferred Stock issued on June 30, 2013. With fewer than 345,012 shares of Preferred Stock outstanding, the Company is no longer subject to the Cash Maintenance provision of the Purchase Agreement under which the Preferred Stock was originally sold in October 2012.

In November 2012, in connection with the sale of the Preferred Stock, the Company entered into three separate investor/public relations service agreements, with terms of seven, ten and twelve months. Compensation under the original terms of these agreements included cash consideration of $444, the issuance of 100,000 shares of Preferred Stock and 400,000 warrants to purchase MGT Common Stock. The issuances of Preferred Stock and warrants to service these providers as compensation for their services are subject to shareholder approval. No shares were approved or issued as of June 30, 2013. Under the terms of the agreements, there are no penalties or liabilities to the Company if approval is not received. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company expensed $76 and $176, respectively, relating to the cash consideration under the agreements. One agreement was mutually terminated in January 2013, reducing the remaining cash consideration due by $108. On May 3, 2013, the agreement was further adjusted to replace and reduce the remaining cash consideration due by an additional $6 and replacing the issuance of 100,000 shares of Preferred Stock and 200,000 warrants to purchase MGT Common Stock with the issuance of 50,000 shares of Restricted Common Stock, subject to shareholder approval.  On May 3, 2013, one agreement was mutually terminated, reducing the future cash consideration due by $20 in consideration of having a month to month service agreement for $15/month.

Note 10: Fair value of financial instruments

The Company follows paragraph 825-10-50-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for disclosures about fair value of its financial instruments and paragraph 820-10-35-37 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“Paragraph 820-10-35-37”) to measure the fair value of its financial instruments. Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP), and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.  To increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and related disclosures, Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three (3) broad levels.  The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs.  The three (3) levels of fair value hierarchy defined by Paragraph 820-10-35-37 are described below:

Financial assets are considered Level 3 when their fair values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques and at least one significant model assumption or input is unobservable.

The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs.  If the inputs used to measure the financial assets and liabilities fall within more than one level described above, the categorization is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument.

The carrying amount of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, such as cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, accounts payable and accrued expenses, accrued dividends and unearned convention revenue approximate their fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments.  The Company’s convertible preferred stock and warrants approximate the fair value of such instruments based upon management’s best estimate of interest rates that would be available to the Company for similar financial arrangements at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012.

The Company uses Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy to measure the fair value of the derivative liabilities and revalues its derivative warrant liability at every reporting period and recognizes gains or losses in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) that are attributable to the change in the fair value of the derivative warrant liability.

(“Medicsight”), MGT Capital Solutions, Inc. (d/b/a “Hammercat Studios”), and MGT Sports, Inc.(“MGT Sports”) including its majority owned subsidiary FanTD LLC, (“FanTD”). Our Corporate office is located in Harrison, New York.

MGT and its subsidiaries are primarily engaged in the business of acquiring, developing and monetizing assets in the online and mobile gaming space.

On April 16, 2013, the Company entered into a Asset Purchase Agreement to acquire certain assets and liabilities of Digital Angel Corporation, a developer and publisher of mobile games designed for tablets and smartphones.

On May 20, 2013, MGT Sports completed the acquisition of 63.12% of the outstanding membership interests of FanTD LLC. FanTD operates a daily fantasy sports website at www.fanthrowdown.com.

Daily fantasy sports compress the timeframe of traditional fantasy sports from multi-month seasons into 24-hour periods.

On September 30, 2006, the United States Congress passed the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act of 2006 (“UIGEA”). The criminal provisions of UIGEA provide that no person engaged in the business of betting or wagering may knowingly accept directly or indirectly virtually any type of payment from a player in unlawful internet gambling (i.e. bets that are unlawful under other state or Federal laws). Fantasy sports are exempt from the definition of unlawful internet gambling provided that:

MGT Gaming owns U. S. Patent No. 7,892,088 entitled "Gaming Device Having a Second Separate Bonusing Event" (“the ‘088 Patent”) relating to casino gaming systems and is seeking to enforce its proprietary rights against possible infringers. The ‘088 Patent relates to a gaming system in which a second game played on an interactive sign is triggered once specific events occur in a first game. On November 2, 2012, MGT Gaming filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Mississippi (Jackson Division) alleging patent infringement against multiple companies believed to be violating the ‘088 Patent. The lawsuit alleges the defendants Caesars Entertainment (NASDAQ GS: CZR), MGM Resorts International, Inc. (NYSE: MGM), WMS Gaming, Inc. - a subsidiary of WMS Industries, Inc. (NYSE: WMS), Penn National Gaming, Inc. (NASDAQ GS: PENN), and Aruze Gaming America, Inc. either manufacture, sell or lease gaming systems in violation of MGT Gaming's patent rights, or operate casinos that offer gaming systems in violation of MGT Gaming's patent rights. An amended version of the complaint was later filed on December 17, 2012.

The allegedly infringing products manufactured, distributed, used, sold and/or offered for sale by defendants include at least those identified under the trade names: "Pirate Battle," "Battleship," "Clue," "Monopoly," "Rich Life," "Amazon Fishing Competition," "Massive Fishing Competition," "Big Game Competition," "Jackpot Battle Royal," "Wizard of Oz Journey to Oz," "The Great and Powerful Oz," and "Paradise Fishing." On January 3, 2013, WMS (joined by Caesars and MGM) moved to sever the litigation against each defendant into separate actions and to transfer the action against WMS to the Northern District of Illinois and to dismiss the case. Later that same month defendants Aruze Gaming America, Inc. and Penn National Gaming, Inc. filed motions to dismiss and motions to transfer venue to Nevada and Pennsylvania, respectively. Responsive and reply briefs have been filed and these motions are now fully briefed. As of August 6, 2013, the court has not made any decisions on these motions. In addition, on March 21, 2013, Aruze filed a separate action in Nevada seeking a declaratory judgment that Aruze does not infringe the '088 Patent and/or that the '088 Patent is invalid or unenforceable. On June 25, 2013 the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Mississippi issued a Notice of Hearing setting a Markman Hearing (also known as a Claims Construction Hearing) for June 5, 2014 at 9:00 AM local time in Jackson, MS before the Honorable District Judge Carlton W. Reeves.

Our future capital requirements

To date, we have primarily financed our operations through private placements of equity and debt 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, if at all, 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.

Commercial results have been limited and we have not generated significant revenues. We cannot assure our stockholders that our 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.

Currently, the Company anticipates it has sufficient cash on hand to continue operations at least through the next twelve months. 

Commitments

On October 26, 2012, the Company entered into a one-year financial advisory and consulting agreement with a national investment-banking firm. Compensation under the agreement includes cash consideration of $250 and 120,000 shares of restricted Common stock. Issuances of restricted Common stock to service providers as compensation for services are subject to shareholder approval. No shares were approved or issued as of June 30, 2013. Under the terms of the agreement, there are no penalties or liabilities to the Company if approval is not received. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 the Company expensed $62 and $124, respectively.

In November 2012, in connection with the sale of the Preferred Stock, the Company entered into three separate investor/public relations service agreements, with terms of seven, ten and twelve months. Compensation under the original terms of these agreements included cash consideration of $444, the issuance of 100,000 shares of Preferred Stock and 400,000 warrants to purchase MGT Common Stock. The issuances of Preferred Stock and warrants to service these providers as compensation for their services are subject to shareholder approval. No shares were approved or issued as of June 30, 2013. Under the terms of the agreements, there are no penalties or liabilities to the Company if approval is not received. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company expensed $76 and $176, respectively, relating to the cash consideration under the agreements. One agreement was mutually terminated in January 2013, reducing the remaining cash consideration due by $108. On May 3, 2013, the agreement was further adjusted to replace and reduce the remaining cash consideration due by an additional $6 and replacing the issuance of 100,000 shares of Preferred Stock and 200,000 warrants to purchase MGT Common Stock with the issuance of 50,000 shares of Restricted Common Stock, subject to shareholder approval.  On May 3, 2013, one agreement was mutually terminated, reducing the future cash consideration due by $20 in consideration of having a month to month service agreement for $15/month.

Recent accounting pronouncements

There are no recent accounting pronouncements that are expected to have an effect on the Company’s financial statements.

Off-balance sheet arrangements

We have no obligations, assets or liabilities which would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements. We do not participate in transactions that create relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, often referred to as variable interest entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements.

Item 3:  Quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk

Not applicable.

Item 4:  Controls and procedures

(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.   Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of our disclosure control system are met. Because of inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues, if any, within a company have been detected. Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded, based on their evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this report, that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

Restatement of Previously Issued Financial Statements. On May 15, 2013, after consulting with the Company’s Audit Committee and with the Company’s Newly Appointed Independent Registered Public Accountant, Marcum LLP, management concluded that certain of the Company’s warrants and its Preferred Stock recorded in periods prior to the engagement of Marcum LLP have received improper accounting treatment. The warrants should have been reflected as liabilities and the Preferred Stock should have been reflected as temporary equity on the balance sheets included in the Company’s previously filed Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 (the “Annual Report”) and the Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the periods ended June 30, 2012 and September 30, 2012 (the “Quarterly Reports”), as opposed to a component of equity. As a result of a deficiency in our internal control over financial reporting relating to the accounting for the Company’s warrants and Preferred Stock, as of the end of the period covered by this report our management has reassessed the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures and has determined that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

Remediation plan. Since the determination regarding this deficiency, we have devoted significant effort and resources to remediation and improvement of our internal control over financial reporting.  While we had processes in place to identify and apply developments in accounting standards, we enhanced these processes to better evaluate our research of the nuances of complex accounting standards and engaged a third party financial reporting consulting firm to assist the Company in its financial reporting compliance. Our enhancements included retaining a third party consultant, who is a technical accounting professional, to assist us in the interpretation and application of new and complex accounting guidance.  The firm has been engaged to assist in the analysis of complex financial instruments. Management will continue to review and make necessary changes to the overall design of our internal control environment.

(b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting.  There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2013, that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1:  Legal proceedings

None.

Item 1-A:  Risk factors

We believe that there are no new risks that constitute material changes from the risk factors related to our core business previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, filed with the SEC on March 29, 2013. However, we have recently consummated the acquisition of certain assets of another company. There are certain risks related to this acquisition, as well as our evolving acquisition strategy.

In April 2013, we acquired certain assets from Digital Angel Corporation including the rights of two mobile game applications currently under development. Our acquisition of Digital Angel’s mobile game application business assets is still an evolving business model. Our efforts to develop these games may prove unsuccessful or, even if successful, it may take more time than we anticipate to achieve significant revenues because, among other reasons:

If we do not achieve a sufficient return on our investment with respect to this business model, it will negatively affect our operating results and may require us to make change to our business strategy.

Our acquisition activities may disrupt our ongoing business, may involve increased expenses and may present risks not contemplated at the time of the transactions.

We have acquired, and may continue to acquire, companies, products and technologies that complement our strategic direction. Acquisitions involve significant risks and uncertainties, including:

Because acquisitions are inherently risky, our transactions may not be successful and may, in some cases, harm our operating results or financial condition.

The markets in which we operate are highly competitive, and many of our competitors have significantly greater resources than we do.

Developing, distributing and selling mobile games is a highly competitive business, characterized by frequent product introductions and rapidly emerging new platforms, technologies and storefronts. For end users, we compete primarily on the basis of game quality, brand and customer reviews. We compete for promotional and storefront placement based on these factors, as well as our relationship with the digital storefront owner, historical performance, perception of sales potential and relationships with licensors of brands and other intellectual property. For content and brand licensors, we compete based on royalty and other economic terms, perceptions of development quality, porting abilities, speed of execution, distribution breadth and relationships with storefront owners or carriers. We also compete for experienced and talented employees.

We compete with a continually increasing number of companies, including Zynga, DeNA, Gree, Nexon, Glu. In addition, given the open nature of the development and distribution for smartphones and tablets, we also compete or will compete with a vast number of small companies and individuals who are able to create and launch games and other content for these devices using relatively limited resources and with relatively limited start-up time or expertise.

Some of our competitors and our potential competitors have one or more advantages over us, either globally or in particular geographic markets, which include:

If we are unable to compete effectively or we are not as successful as our competitors in our target markets, our sales could decline, our margins could decline and we could lose market share, any of which would materially harm our business, operating results and financial condition.

Consumer tastes are continually changing and are often unpredictable, and we compete for consumer discretionary spending against other forms of entertainment; if we fail to develop and publish new mobile games that achieve market acceptance, our sales would suffer.

Our mobile game business depends on developing and publishing mobile games that consumers will want to download and spend time and money playing. We must continue to invest significant resources in research and development, analytics and marketing to introduce new games and continue to update our successful mobile games, and we often must make decisions about these matters well in advance of product release to timely implement them. Our success depends, in part, on unpredictable and volatile factors beyond our control, including consumer preferences, competing games, new mobile platforms and the availability of other entertainment activities. If our games and related applications do not meet consumer expectations, or they are not brought to market in a timely and effective manner, our business, operating results and financial condition would be harmed. Even if our games are successfully introduced and initially adopted, a failure to continue to update them with compelling content or a subsequent shift in the entertainment preferences of consumers could cause a decline in our games’ popularity that could materially reduce our revenues and harm our business, operating results and financial condition. Furthermore, we compete for the discretionary spending of consumers, who face a vast array of entertainment choices, including games played on personal computers and consoles, television, movies, sports and the Internet. If we are unable to sustain sufficient interest in our games compared to other forms of entertainment, our business and financial results would be seriously harmed.

If we do not successfully establish and maintain awareness of our brand and games, if we incur excessive expenses promoting and maintaining our brand or our games or if our games contains defects or objectionable content, our operating results and financial condition could be harmed.

We believe that establishing and maintaining our brand is critical to establishing a direct relationship with end users who purchase our products from direct-to-consumer channels and to maintaining our existing relationships with distributors and content licensors, as well as potentially developing new such relationships. Increasing awareness of our brand and recognition of our games is particularly important in connection with our strategic focus of developing games based on our own intellectual property. Our ability to promote our brand and increase recognition of our games depends on our ability to develop high-quality, engaging games. If consumers, digital storefront owners and branded content owners do not perceive our existing games as high-quality or if we introduce new games that are not favorably received by them, then we may not succeed in building brand recognition and brand loyalty in the marketplace. In addition, globalizing and extending our brand and recognition of our games is costly and involves extensive management time to execute successfully, particularly as we expand our efforts to increase awareness of our brand and games among international consumers. Although we have significantly increased our sales and marketing expenditures in connection with the launch of our games, these efforts may not succeed in increasing awareness of our brand or the new games. If we fail to increase and maintain brand awareness and consumer recognition of our games, our potential revenues could be limited, our costs could increase and our business, operating results and financial condition could suffer.

If we fail to deliver our games at the same time as new mobile devices are commercially introduced, our sales may suffer.

Our business depends, in part, on the commercial introduction of new mobile devices with enhanced features, including larger, higher resolution color screens, improved audio quality, and greater processing power, memory, battery life and storage. For example, the introduction of new and more powerful versions of Apple’s iPhone and iPad and devices based on Google’s Android operating system, have helped drive the growth of the mobile games market. In addition, consumers generally purchase the majority of content, such as our games, for a new device within a few months of purchasing it. We do not control the timing of these device launches. Some manufacturers give us access to their mobile devices prior to commercial release. If one or more major manufacturers were to stop providing us access to new device models prior to commercial release, we might be unable to introduce games that are compatible with the new device when the device is first commercially released, and we might be unable to make compatible games for a substantial period following the device release. If we do not adequately build into our title plan the demand for games for a particular mobile device or experience game launch delays, we miss the opportunity to sell games when new mobile devices are shipped or our end users upgrade to a new mobile device, our revenues would likely decline and our business, operating results and financial condition would likely suffer.

We will need additional capital to continue our operation.

We may need to obtain additional financing for advertising, promotion and acquisition of additional products.  The Company is constantly looking for new sources of revenue that will help fund our business.  There can be no assurances that this will be achieved.

If we successfully raise additional funds through the issuance of debt, we will be required to service that debt and are likely to become subject to restrictive covenants and other restrictions contained in the instruments governing that debt, which may limit our operational flexibility.  If we raise additional funds through the issuance of equity securities, then those securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to the rights of holders of our common stock, and holders of our common stock will experience dilution.

We cannot be certain that such additional debt or equity financing will be available to us on favorable terms when required, or at all.  If we cannot raise funds in a timely manner, or on acceptable terms, we may not be able to promote our brand, develop or enhance our products and services, take advantage of future opportunities or respond to competitive pressures or unexpected requirements, and we may be required to reduce or limit operations.

The effect of the proposed "Unlawful Internet Gambling Funding Prohibition Act."

During the 2003 fiscal year, the House Judiciary Committee of the US Government approved HR21 "Unlawful Internet Gambling Funding Prohibition Act".  This bill creates a new crime of accepting financial instruments, such as credit cards or electronic fund transfers, for debts incurred in illegal internet gambling.  The bill enables state and federal Attorneys General to request that injunctions be issued to any party, such as financial institutions and internet service providers, to assist in the prevention or restraint of illegal internet gambling.  This bill still needs to be ratified by the Senate before it becomes passed as law.  We may be affected by this bill and therefore the Company's revenue stream may be affected.

Compliance with state rules and regulations.

Various states have laws restricting gambling. The Company believes that we are in compliance with the rules and regulations in the states we operate. However, there can be no assurance that the state officials will have the same view. In the event that we are accused of violating such gambling laws and restrictions, our gaming business may be disallowed or prohibited in these states. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that no new rules and regulations restricting our business will be adopted in the states we operate. If such restrictive rules and regulations are adopted, we may incur additional costs in complying with the rules and regulations or we may have to cease operation in these state(s).

We have capacity constraints and system development risks that could damage our customer relations or inhibit our possible growth, and we may need to expand our management systems and controls quickly, which may increase our cost of operations.

Our success and our ability to provide high quality customer service largely depends on the efficient and uninterrupted operation of our computer and communications systems and the computers and communication systems of our third party vendors in order to accommodate any significant numbers or increases in the numbers of consumers using our service.  Our success also depends upon our and our vendors' abilities to rapidly expand transaction-processing systems and network infrastructure without any systems interruptions in order to accommodate any significant increases in use of our service.

We and our service providers may experience periodic systems interruptions and infrastructure failures, which we believe will cause customer dissatisfaction and may adversely affect our results of operations.  Limitations of technology infrastructure may prevent us from maximizing our business opportunities.

We cannot assure you that our and our vendors' data repositories, financial systems and other technology resources will be secure from security breaches or sabotage, especially as technology changes and becomes more sophisticated.  In addition, many of our and our vendors' software systems are custom-developed and we and our vendors rely on employees and certain third-party contractors to develop and maintain these systems. If certain of these employees or contractors become unavailable, we and our vendors may experience difficulty in improving and maintaining these systems.  Furthermore, we expect that we and our vendors may continue to be required to manage multiple relationships with various software and equipment vendors whose technologies may not be compatible, as well as relationships with other third parties to maintain and enhance their technology infrastructures.  Failure to achieve or maintain high capacity data transmission and security without system downtime and to achieve improvements in their transaction processing systems and network infrastructure could have a materially adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

Increased security risks of online commerce may deter future use of our website, which may adversely affect our ability to generate revenue.

Concerns over the security of transactions conducted on the internet and the privacy of consumers may also inhibit the growth of the internet and other online services generally, and online commerce in particular.  Failure to prevent security breaches could significantly harm our business and results of operations.  We cannot be certain that advances in computer capabilities, new discoveries in the field of cryptography, or other developments will not result in a compromise or breach of the algorithms used to protect our transaction data.  Anyone who is able to circumvent our or our vendors' security measures could misappropriate proprietary information, cause interruptions in our operations or damage our brand and reputation.  We may be required to incur significant costs to protect against security breaches or to alleviate problems caused by breaches.  Any well-publicized compromise of security could deter people from using the internet to conduct transactions that involve transmitting confidential information or downloading sensitive materials, which would have a material adverse effect on our business.

We face the risk of system failures, which would disrupt our operations.

A disaster could severely damage our business and results of operations because our services could be interrupted for an indeterminate length of time.  Our operations depend upon our ability to maintain and protect our computer systems.

Our systems and operations are vulnerable to damage or interruption from fire, floods, earthquakes, hurricanes, power loss, telecommunications failures, break-ins, sabotage and similar events.  The occurrence of a natural disaster or unanticipated problems at our principal business headquarters or at a third-party facility could cause interruptions or delays in our business, loss of data or render us unable to provide our services.  In addition, failure of a third-party facility to provide the data communications capacity required by us, as a result of human error, natural disaster or other operational disruptions, could cause interruptions in our service.  The occurrence of any or all of these events could adversely affect our reputation, brand and business.

We face risks of claims from third parties for intellectual property infringement that could adversely affect our business.

Our services operate in part by making internet services and content available to our users.  This creates the potential for claims to be made against us, either directly or through contractual indemnification provisions with third parties.  These claims might, for example, be made for defamation, negligence, copyright, trademark or patent infringement, personal injury, invasion of privacy or other legal theories.  Any claims could result in costly litigation and be time consuming to defend, divert management's attention and resources, cause delays in releasing new or upgrading existing services or require us to enter into royalty or licensing agreements.

Litigation regarding intellectual property rights is common in the internet and software industries.  We expect that internet technologies and software products and services may be increasingly subject to third-party infringement claims as the number of competitors in our industry segment grows and the functionality of products in different industry segments overlaps.  There can be no assurance that our services do not or will not in the future infringe the intellectual property rights of third parties.  Royalty or licensing agreements, if required, may not be available on acceptable terms, if at all.  A successful claim of infringement against us and our failure or inability to license the infringed or similar technology could adversely affect our business.

Our success and ability to compete are substantially dependent upon our technology and data resources, which we intend to protect through a combination of patent, copyright, trade secret and/or trademark law.  We currently have no patents or trademarks issued to date on our technology and there can be no assurances that we will be successful in securing them when necessary.

We may not be able to protect our internet domain name, which is important to our branding strategy.

Our internet domain name, www.fanthrowdown.com, is an extremely important part of our business. Governmental agencies and their designees generally regulate the acquisition and maintenance of domain names.  The regulation of domain names in the United States and in foreign countries may be subject to change.  Governing bodies may establish additional top-level domains, appoint additional domain name registrars or modify the requirements for holding domain names.  As a result, we may be unable to acquire or maintain relevant domain names in all countries in which we conduct business.  Furthermore, the relationship between regulations governing domain names and laws protecting trademarks and similar proprietary rights is unclear.  Therefore, we may be unable to prevent third parties from acquiring domain names that are similar to, infringe upon or otherwise decrease the value of our trademarks and other proprietary rights. 

If we are unable to maintain our popularity with third party search engines then our customer base, and therefore, our revenue will not continue to grow.

Due to our limited capital we do not run large advertising campaigns.  We are, therefore, reliant on third party search engines such as Google and Yahoo! to provide prospective customers with links to facilitate traffic to our internet domain. We believe that these search engines are important in order to facilitate broad market acceptance of our service and thus enhance our sales.  We continue to look for new methods to optimize our ranking position with various internet search engines, including the maintenance of reciprocal links with complementary third party sites.

Our financial position and results of operations will vary depending on a number of factors, most of which are out of our control.

We anticipate that our operating results will vary widely depending on a number of factors, some of which are beyond our control.  These factors are likely to include:

Because we have a limited operating history, it is difficult to accurately forecast the revenues that will be generated from our current and proposed future product offerings.

If we are unable to meet the changing needs of our industry, our ability to compete will be adversely affected.

We operate in an intensely competitive industry.  To remain competitive, we must be capable of enhancing and improving the functionality and features of our online services.  The internet gaming industry are rapidly changing.  If competitors introduce new products and services embodying new technologies, or if new industry standards and practices emerge, our existing services, technology and systems may become obsolete.  There can be no assurances that we will be successful in responding quickly, cost effectively and adequately to new developments or that funds will be available to respond at all.  Any failure by us to respond effectively would significantly harm our business, operating results and financial condition.

Our future success will depend on our ability to accomplish the following:

Developing internet services and other proprietary technology entails significant technical and business risks, as well as substantial costs.  We may use new technologies ineffectively, or we may fail to adapt our services, transaction processing systems and network infrastructure to user requirements or emerging industry standards.  If our operations face material delays in introducing new services, products and enhancements, our users may forego the use of our services and use those of our competitors.  These factors could have a material adverse effect on our financial position and results of operations.

Our business may be subject to government regulation and legal uncertainties that may increase the costs of operating our web portal, limit our ability to attract users, or interfere with future operations of the Company.

There are currently few laws or regulations directly applicable to access to, or commerce on, the internet.  Due to the increasing popularity and use of the internet, it is possible that laws and regulations may be adopted, covering issues such as user privacy, defamation, pricing, taxation, content regulation, quality of products and services, and intellectual property ownership and infringement.  Such legislation could expose the Company to substantial liability as well as dampen the growth in use of the internet, decrease the acceptance of the internet as a communications and commercial medium, or require the Company to incur significant expenses in complying with any new regulations. 

The applicability to the internet of existing laws governing issues such as gambling, property ownership, copyright, defamation, obscenity and personal privacy is uncertain.  The Company may be subject to claims that our services violate such laws.  Any new legislation or regulation in the United States or abroad or the application of existing laws and regulations to the internet could damage our business.  In addition, because legislation and other regulations relating to online games vary by jurisdiction, from state to state and from country to country, it is difficult for us to ensure that our players are accessing our portal from a jurisdiction where it is legal to play our games.  We therefore, cannot ensure that we will not be subject to enforcement actions as a result of this uncertainty and difficulty in controlling access. 

In addition, our business may be indirectly affected by our suppliers or customers who may be subject to such legislation.  Increased regulation of the internet may decrease the growth in the use of the internet or hamper the development of internet commerce and online entertainment, which could decrease the demand for our services, increase our cost of doing business or otherwise have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Item 2:  Unregistered sales of equity securities and use of proceeds

In the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company issued 2,127 and 20,933 shares, respectively of Series A Convertible Preferred stock as dividend shares to holders, representing dividends due from January 1, 2013, through June 30, 2013.

The above issuances were made in reliance on an exemption from registration set forth in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act. The issuances did not result in any proceeds to the Company.

Item 3:  Defaults upon senior securities

None.
