NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
September 30, 2013
Note 1. Description of Business, Organization and Principles of Consolidation
Description of Business
One Horizon Group, Inc., (the “Company” or “Horizon”) develops proprietary software primarily in the Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) and bandwidth optimization markets (“Horizon Globex”) and provides it under perpetual license arrangements (“Master License”) throughout the world. The Company sells related user licenses and software maintenance services as well.
Organization
On November 30, 2012, the predecessor company “ICE” acquired all of the stock of One Horizon Group plc (“OHG”), a company incorporated in the United Kingdom through the issuance of 29,755,794 shares of common stock of the Company. Upon completion of this transaction the former shareholders of OHG controlled approximately 96% of the outstanding stock of the Company and OHG was deemed the acquiring entity The share exchange has been accounted for as a reverse acquisition. The historical combined financial statements of OHG form the consolidated financial statements presented. For accounting purposes ICE was considered to have been acquired as of November 30, 2012.
The consolidated financial statements have the deemed acquisition of ICE by OHG and the recognition of the 1,160,051 shares of common stock, with a fair value of $170,000, at November 30, 2012.
On December 31, 2012 the Company sold the operations of Global Integrated Media Limited and Modizo for the return of 70,000 shares of common stock with a fair value of $420,000. These companies were subsidiaries and divisions of ICE.
On August 26, 2013 the Company continued its corporate entity from Pennsylvania to Delaware. There was no change in authorized and issued share capital as all shareholders transferred intact.
Interim Period Financial Statements
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the Securities and Exchange Commission’s instructions. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The results of operations reflect interim adjustments, all of which are of a normal recurring nature and, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for such interim period. The results reported in these interim consolidated financial statements should not be regarded as necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the entire year. Certain information and note disclosure normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and regulations. These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the six months ended December 31, 2012, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 13, 2013.
Principles of Consolidation and Combination
The September 30, 2013 consolidated financial statements include the accounts of One Horizon Group, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries OHG, Horizon Globex GmbH, Abbey Technology GmbH, One Horizon Hong Kong Limited, Horizon Network Technology Co. Ltd. and Horizon Globex Ireland Limited.
The comparative statement of operations, comprehensive income and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 include the combined accounts of One Horizon Group plc, Horizon Globex GmbH and Abbey Technology GmbH. These combined financial statements present the carve-out combined financial position and results of operations of OHG without including the accounts of Satcom Global, a former wholly-owned subsidiary of OHG, which was disposed of in October 2012. All revenues, expenses, gains and losses, assets and liabilities related to the Satcom Global business have been eliminated from these combined financial statements.
All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
10
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Accounting and Presentation
These consolidated and combined financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 have been derived from the Company’s historical accounting records and are presented as a combined group. The combined financial statements do not include revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities of the former Satcom Global business which was operated through separate corporate subsidiaries. Management of the Company considers the basis on which the expenses have been allocated to the combined group to be a reasonable reflection of the utilization of the services provided to or received from during the periods presented.
The reporting currency of the Company is the United States dollar. Assets and liabilities of operations other than those denominated in U.S. dollars, primarily in Switzerland, the United Kingdom and China, are translated into United States dollars at the rate of exchange at the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at the average rate of exchange throughout the period. Gains or losses from these translations are reported as a separate component of other comprehensive income (loss) until all or a part of the investment in the subsidiaries is sold or liquidated. The translation adjustments do not recognize the effect of income tax because the Company expects to reinvest the amounts indefinitely in operations.
Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange-rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in general and administrative expenses.
Cash
Cash and cash equivalents include bank demand deposit accounts and highly liquid short term investments with maturities of three months or less when purchased. Cash consists of checking accounts held at financial institutions in the United Kingdom, Switzerland, Ireland, Singapore, Hong Kong and China which, at times, balances may exceed insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses related to these balances, and management believes the credit risk to be minimal.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable result primarily from sale of software and licenses to customers and are recorded at their principal amounts. Receivables are considered past due once they exceed the terms of the sales transaction. When necessary, the Company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts that is based on a review of outstanding receivables, historical collection information, and current economic conditions. There was an allowance of $212,000 and $218,000 for doubtful accounts at both September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012. Receivables are generally unsecured. Account balances are charged off against the allowance when the Company determines it is probable the receivable will not be recovered. The Company does not have off-balance sheet credit exposure related to its customers. At September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, three customers accounted for 22% and 33%, respectively, of the accounts receivable balance. Long-term payment terms for Master Licenses are provided to customers on an interest free basis, typically over five years.
Payments due from customers beyond one year are recorded as long term at their net present value, to the extent revenue has been recorded, as described. Accounts receivable includes amounts that are due for which revenue has not been recognized. Such amounts are recorded as deferred revenue, classified as current or long term liabilities, based on the expectation of revenue to be recognized and collections to be received.
11
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment is primarily comprised of leasehold property improvements, motor vehicles and equipment that are recorded at cost and depreciated or amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives as follows: motor vehicles – 5 years, equipment – between 3 and 5 years, leasehold property improvements, over the lesser of the estimated remaining useful life of the asset or the remaining term of the lease.
Repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred. Expenditures that substantially increase the useful lives of existing assets are capitalized.
Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined as the exchange price that will be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value should maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. To measure fair value, the Company uses the following fair value hierarchy based on three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered to be observable and the third unobservable:
Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 – Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs are supported by little or no market activity and are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets include software development costs and customer lists and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of five years for customer lists and ten years for software development. The Company periodically evaluates whether changes have occurred that would require revision of the remaining estimated useful life. The Company performs periodic reviews of its capitalized intangible assets to determine if the assets have continuing value to the Company.
The Company expenses all costs related to the development of internal-use software as incurred, other than those incurred during the application development stage, after achievement of technological feasibility. Costs incurred in the application development stage are capitalized and amortized over the estimated useful life of the software. Internally developed software costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the software. The Company performs periodic reviews of its capitalized software development costs to determine if the assets have continuing value to the Company. Costs for assets that are determined to be of no continuing value are written off. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, software development costs of $831,000, and $2,263,000, respectively, have been capitalized.
Impairment of Other Long-Lived Assets
The Company evaluates the recoverability of its property and equipment and other long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate impairment may have occurred. An impairment loss is recognized when the net book value of such assets exceeds the estimated future undiscounted cash flows attributed to the assets or the business to which the assets relate. Impairment losses, if any, are measured as the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the assets. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company identified no impairment losses related to the Company’s long-lived assets.
12
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue when it is realized or realizable and earned. The Company establishes persuasive evidence of a sales arrangement for each type of revenue transaction based on a signed contract with the customer and that delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, price is fixed and determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured.
●
|
Software and licenses – revenue from sales of perpetual licenses to top-tier telecom entities is recognized at the inception of the arrangement, presuming all other relevant revenue recognition criteria are met. Revenue from sales of perpetual licenses to other entities is recognized over the agreed collection period. The Company regards a “top-tier” telecom entity as a tier 1 carrier which has a direct connection to the Internet and the networks it uses to deliver voice and data services as well as a financially strong balance sheet and good credit rating..
|
●
|
revenues for user licenses purchased by customers is recognized when the user license is delivered.
|
We enter into arrangements in which a customer purchases a combination of software licenses, maintenance services and post-contract customer support (“PCS”). As a result, judgment is sometimes required to determine the appropriate accounting, including how the price should be allocated among the deliverable elements if there are multiple elements. PCS may include rights to upgrades, when and if available, support, updates and enhancements. When vendor specific objective evidence (“VSOE”) of fair value exists for all elements in a multiple element arrangement, revenue is allocated to each element based on the relative fair value of each of the elements. VSOE of fair value is established by the price charged when the same element is sold separately. Accordingly, the judgments involved in assessing the fair values of various elements of an agreement can impact the recognition of revenue in each period. Changes in the allocation of the sales price between deliverables might impact the timing of revenue recognition, but would not change the total revenue recognized on the contract. When elements such as software and services are contained in a single arrangement, or in related arrangements with the same customer, we allocate revenue to each element based on its relative fair value, provided that such element meets the criteria for treatment as a separate unit of accounting. In the absence of fair value for a delivered element, revenue is first allocated to the fair value of the undelivered elements and then allocated to the residual delivered elements. In the absence of fair value for an undelivered element, the arrangement is accounted for as a single unit of accounting, resulting in a delay of revenue recognition for the delivered elements until the undelivered elements are fulfilled. No sales arrangements to date include undelivered elements for which VSOE does not exist.
For the purposes of revenue recognition for perpetual licenses, the Company considers payment terms exceeding one year as a presumption that revenue is recognized pro rata over the collection period, typically over five years. For sales to top-tier customers, this presumption is overcome by the customers’ commitment to pay, as demonstrated by its payment history and its ability to pay. Payment terms are extended to customers on an interest-free basis for Master License sales. For revenue recognized in advance of payments due, the Company provides for a discount against the revenue recorded, which is adjusted to the net present value of the cash flows expected over the payment terms imputing interest at an appropriate rate, when the terms exceed one year.
Deferred Revenue
The Company sells software and licenses on deferred payment terms, typically over five years. For those sales to customers which the Company does not consider to be top-tier telecom entities, the revenue is recognized over the collection period. Contracts are considered legally binding agreements. On execution, the Company records the full amount receivable from the customer for the Master License, including an allocation to current and long-term positions. The amount of the receivable that is not recognized as revenue is included in deferred revenue.
Leases
Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases.
Assets held under finance leases are recognized as assets of the Company at their fair value or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments, each determined at the inception of the lease. The corresponding liability to the lessor is included in the balance sheet as finance lease obligation. Lease payments are apportioned between finance charges and reduction of the lease obligation so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Finance charges are charged directly against income.
Rentals payable under operating leases are charged to income on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant lease.
Benefits received and receivable as an incentive to enter into an operating lease are also spread on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
13
Advertising Expenses
It is the Company’s policy to expense advertising costs as incurred. No advertising costs were incurred during each of the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012.
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development expenses include all direct costs, primarily salaries for Company personnel and outside consultants, related to the development of new products, significant enhancements to existing products, and the portion of costs of development of internal-use software required to be expensed. Research and development costs are charged to operations as incurred with the exception of those software development costs that may qualify for capitalization. The Company incurred no research and development costs in the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
Income Taxes
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on temporary differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, operating loss, and tax credit carryforwards, and are measured using the enacted income tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Realization of certain deferred income tax assets is dependent upon generating sufficient taxable income in the appropriate jurisdiction. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce deferred income tax assets to amounts that are more likely than not to be realized. The initial recording and any subsequent changes to valuation allowances are based on a number of factors (positive and negative evidence). The Company considers its actual historical results to have a stronger weight than other, more subjective, indicators when considering whether to establish or reduce a valuation allowance.
The Company continually evaluates its uncertain income tax positions and may record a liability for any unrecognized tax benefits resulting from uncertain income tax positions taken or expected to be taken in an income tax return. Estimated interest and penalties are recorded as a component of interest expense and other expense, respectively.
Because tax laws are complex and subject to different interpretations, significant judgment is required. As a result, the Company makes certain estimates and assumptions in: (1) calculating its income tax expense, deferred tax assets, and deferred tax liabilities; (2) determining any valuation allowance recorded against deferred tax assets; and (3) evaluating the amount of unrecognized tax benefits, as well as the interest and penalties related to such uncertain tax positions. The Company’s estimates and assumptions may differ significantly from tax benefits ultimately realized.
14
Net Income per Share
Basic earnings per share of common stock is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share of common stock reflects the maximum potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock and would then share in the net income of the company. Common shares issuable are considered outstanding as of the original approval date for purposes of earnings per share computations. (in thousands)

Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)
Other comprehensive income (loss), as defined, includes net income, foreign currency translation adjustment, and all changes in equity (net assets) during a period from non-owner sources. To date, the Company has not had any significant transactions that are required to be reported in other comprehensive income (loss), except for foreign currency translation adjustments.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the fiscal year. The Company makes estimates for, among other items, useful lives for depreciation and amortization, determination of future cash flows associated with impairment testing for long-lived assets, determination of the fair value of stock options and warrants, determining fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations, valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, allowances for doubtful accounts, and potential income tax assessments and other contingencies. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience, current conditions, and other assumptions that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions.
Financial Instruments
The Company has the following financial instruments: cash and long-term debt. The carrying value of these financial instruments approximates their fair value due to their liquidity or their short-term nature valued consistent with the use of level 2 inputs.
Share-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for stock-based awards at fair value on date of grant and recognition of compensation over the service period for awards expected to vest. The fair value of stock options is determined using the Black-Scholes valuation model, which is consistent with the Company’s valuation techniques previously utilized for options in footnote disclosures.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion provides information which management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of our results of operations and financial condition. The discussion should be read along with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and notes thereto contained elsewhere in this Report, and our transition report on Form 10-KT for the transition period from July 1, 2012 to December 31, 2012, including the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto. The following discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements, which involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ significantly from the results, expectations and plans discussed in these forward-looking statements. See “Cautionary Note Concerning Forward-Looking Statements.”
Overview
Business
We develop and license software that optimizes internet-based communications. We believe that our proprietary software uses internet bandwidth more efficiently and at less cost than other internet communication technologies. It represents a comprehensive solution for telecommunications operators seeking to compete with other companies’ Voice over Internet Protocol (“VoIP”) services, as well as for businesses and others seeking to minimize their communications costs. Our software products include the Horizon Call App, our bandwidth-efficient VoIP app for Android and iPhone smartphones.We offer our software to telecommunications network operators and other enterprises utilizing mobile, fixed line and satellite communications. We also sell related hardware, including our Horizon VoIP PBX, Horizon VoIP Switch, and Horizon Captive Portal devices. We are an ISO 9001 and ISO 20000-1 certified company with assets and operations in Switzerland, the United Kingdom, China, India, Singapore, Hong Kong, and Ireland.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company completed six new master licensing agreements with one tier one telecommunication operator in Asia and five tier two telecommunication operators in Europe and Asia.
During the third quarter of fiscal year 2013, we continued to expand the applications of our mobile software and related marketing efforts in promising emerging markets. During the quarter ending September 30, 2013, we completed the Microsoft Lync interconnectivity of Horizon Call.
In November 2013, we announced the addition of a GPS tracking and advertising service to the One Horizon App software suite. The feature is designed to help in locating lost phones, allow operators to deliver relevant advertisements dynamically to subscribers, and enable subscribers to record and share their movements through social media.
In September 2013, we opened a new software research and development office, employing three experienced software engineers in the Nexus Innovation Centre on the campus of the University of Limerick in Ireland.
In August 2013, we launched our online Global Phone Credit service add-on. This service provides a complete Internet shop-front that performs the cash collection, credit card management and cash reconciliation services for all Horizon service providers that wish to avail themselves of it. This Horizon technology component seamlessly works alongside any legacy operator credit top-up services such as scratch-cards. The Horizon service provider can now also promote the GPC on-line payment portal allowing their subscribers to pay for their in-App credit using their credit card or a PayPal account. The GPC service works in conjunction with the Horizon Global Exchange product suite.
20
In July 2013, we released our VoIP technology as a software-library for smartphone App developers. The Horizon software library allows smartphone app developers to integrate the Horizon VoIP optimizations with their current and their future apps. Apps such as on-line gaming can now carry the gamer's voice in a high-quality and reliable way especially while on wireless networks such as 3G, bringing a new level of mobility to games that benefit from voice communications. Another use for the library is in the plethora of existing VoIP apps that currently employ inefficient SIP protocols. App-based gaming developers can now upgrade their users’ voice-communication experience by deploying Horizon and integrating the Horizon software library in their apps. The Horizon software library works in conjunction with the Horizon Global Exchange product suite. A software license is required for the Horizon Global Exchange and for the Horizon software-library.
Going forward, management believes the Company will continue to grow the business and increase sales if we are successful in selling the Horizon Platform solution to new telecommunications company customers globally and to retail consumers in China. Management also expects profitability to increase as revenue is expected to increase more than new operating costs related to public company expenses.
Reverse Stock Split and Change of Domicile
On August 29, 2013, our 1-for-600 reverse stock split became effective for purposes of the securities markets. The shares of the Company’s common stock will continue to trade on a split-adjusted basis on the OTCQB. The ticker symbol for the Company will not change although a “D” was appended to the trading symbol such that the trading symbol temporarily appeared as “OHGID” for 20 trading days to alert the public regarding the reverse stock split. The new CUSIP number for the Company’s common stock post-reverse stock split is 68235H 205. The Company’s Board of Directors approved the reverse stock split of its common stock at a ratio of 1-for-600 and the measure was approved by shareholders at the Company’s Annual Meeting held on August 6, 2013. It was filed with the relevant state legal authority and became effective under state law on that date. The reverse stock split proportionately reduces the number of all issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock and likewise adjusts the amount of common stock underlying stock options and warrants outstanding immediately prior to the effectiveness of the reverse stock split. As a result of the reverse stock split, the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock decreased from approximately 18.9 billion pre-reverse stock split shares to approximately 31.5 million post-reverse stock split shares.
As previously announced, as a result of the reverse stock split, the Company will not issue fractional shares of common stock to shareholders, including shareholders holding less than 600 shares. Shareholders otherwise entitled to fractional shares are entitled to receive a cash payment equal to the closing price of the Company’s common stock as reported by the OTCQB on the effective date of the reverse split under state law, or $0.01 per post-split fractional share. The reverse stock split will otherwise affect all shareholders uniformly and not affect any shareholder's ownership percentage of the shares of the Company’s common stock.
In addition, the Company’s change of domicile from Pennsylvania to Delaware became effective on August 26, 2013. The change of domicile had also been approved by the Board of Directors and by shareholders at the Company’s Annual Meeting held on August 6, 2013.
Additional information regarding the reverse stock split and change of domicile can be found in a definitive information statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 26, 2013 and which was mailed to all shareholders of record as of July 5, 2013.

Revenue: Our revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2013 was approximately $7,209,000 as compared to approximately $4,291,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2012, an increase of $2,918,000, or 68.0 %. The increase in our revenue was due to the ongoing growth in sales of the Horizon Platform and licenses. The Company expects sales to continue to grow as more companies sign up for the Horizon Platform.
Cost of Revenue: Cost of revenue was approximately $34,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2013, or 0.5% of sales, compared to cost of revenue of approximately $322,000, or 7.5% of sales for the three months ended September 30, 2012. Our cost of revenue is primarily composed of the costs of ancillary hardware sold with the Horizon Platform.
Gross Margin: Gross margin for the three months ended September 30, 2013 was approximately $7,175,000 as compared to $3,969,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2012, an increase of 80.8%. The main reason for the increase in gross margin is the growth in business and the smartphone market globally, as well as the Company’s ability to capitalize on market opportunities by entering areas with high population density, high penetration of mobile phones, congested mobile cellular networks and high growth in the adoption of smartphones. Gross margin as a percentage of revenue increased from 92.5% to 99.5% for the three months ended September 30, 2013.
Operating Expenses: Operating expenses, including general and administrative expenses, depreciation, and amortization of intangibles, were approximately $1,901,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 as compared to $1,344,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2012. The operating expenses represented 26.3% of sales for the three months ended September 30, 2013 as compared to 31.3% of sales for the same period in 2012. Going forward, management expects operating costs to rise due to various public company-related expenses including share-based compensation, and various legal, accounting and consulting services. Despite the expected increase in operating costs, management believes that operating costs as a percentage of sales will drop as expected sales of the Horizon Platform solution continue to grow. The operating expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2013 included various public company expenses including stock-based compensation, and various legal and consulting services. The stock compensation expenses included approximately $50,000 for 33,333 restricted shares. This is a one-time non-cash charges related to management efforts to develop corporate governance and capital markets strategies as well as investor and public relation programs for the Company’s entry into the U.S. public markets.
Net Income: Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2013 was approximately $4,582,000 as compared to net income of $2,589,000 for the same period in 2012. The increase in net income reflected the growth in the business and sales.
The non-controlling interest holders in our China joint venture were attributed their 25% share of the net loss of the joint venture in the amount of $29,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2013. The remaining portion of net income of $4,611,000 for the three months ended Septermber 30, 2013 was attributable to the stockholders of the Company.

Our cost of revenue is primarily composed of the costs of ancillary hardware sold with the Horizon Platform.
Gross Margin: Gross margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 was approximately $12,795,000 as compared to $8,458,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, an increase of 51.3%. The main reason for the increase in gross margin is the growth in business and the smartphone market globally, as well as the Company’s ability to capitalize on market opportunities by entering areas with high population density, high penetration of mobile phones, congested mobile cellular networks and high growth in the adoption of smartphones. Gross margin as a percentage of revenue increased from 95.6% to 96.0% for the nine months ended September 30, 2013.
Operating Expenses: Operating expenses, including general and administrative expenses, depreciation, and amortization of intangibles, were approximately $6,520,000 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2013 as compared to $6,512,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. Operating expenses represented 49.0% of sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 as compared to 73.6% of sales for the same period in 2012. Going forward, management expects operating costs to rise due to various public company-related expenses including share-based compensation, and various legal, accounting and consulting services. The operating expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 included various public company expenses including stock-based compensation, and various legal and consulting services. Despite the expected increase in operating costs, management believes that operating costs as a percentage of sales will drop as expected sales of the Horizon Platform solution continue to grow. The stock compensation expenses included approximately $643,000 for 100,876 restricted shares issued as partial consideration with an advisory firm to provide certain business and corporate development services. This is a one-time non-cash charges related to management efforts to develop corporate governance and capital markets strategies as well as investor and public relation programs for the Company’s entry into the US public markets.

The non-controlling interest holders in our China joint venture were attributed their 25% share of the net loss of the joint venture in the amount of $73,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013.
As described above, the net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 included approximately $643,000 of stock based compensation expenses related to the issuing of shares to outside advisors. Without these stock compensation expenses, net income on a non-GAAP basis attributable to the stockholders of the Company would have been approximately $6,097,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013.
About Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to our unaudited condensed consolidation financial results developed in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), we also provide a Non-GAAP financial measure for the third quarter of 2013, Non-GAAP net income attributable to stockholders, which excludes the non-cash equity compensation expenses from our comparable GAAP measure. We believe that this Non-GAAP financial measure provides investors with another method for assessing our operating results in a manner that is focused on the performance of our ongoing operations and excludes non-cash equity compensation expenses incurred for outside advisors. Readers are cautioned not to view Non-GAAP results on a stand-alone basis or as a substitute for results under GAAP, or as being comparable to results reported or forecasted by other companies, and should refer to the reconciliation of GAAP results with Non-GAAP results below. We believe that both management and investors benefit from referring to these Non-GAAP financial measures in assessing our performance and when planning and forecasting future periods. The accompanying table contains detail on the GAAP financial measures that are most directly comparable to Non-GAAP financial measures and the related reconciliation between these financial measures.

Net cash used in operating activities was approximately $2,587,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 as compared to net cash used of $2,139,000 for the same period in 2012. The increase in cash used by operations was primarily due to slower collections on accounts receivables.
Net cash used in investing activities was approximately $1,418,000 and $2,461,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Net cash used in investing activities was primarily focused on acquisitions of intangible assets, property and equipment and note receivables. The reduction in cash used by investing activities was primarily due a reduction in the net cash used for the acquisition of intangible assets from the prior period.
Net cash provided by financing activities amounted to $6,488,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 as compared to cash provided of $5,345,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. Cash provided by financing activities in 2013 was primarily due to proceeds from subscriptions for common stock and advances from related parties. Cash provided by financing activities in 2012 was primarily due to subscriptions for common stock and advances from related parties.
Our working capital, excluding the current portion of deferred income (attributable to licensing fees to be realized over time), as of September 30, 2013 was approximately $7.3 million, as compared to working capital of approximately $0.6 million as of December 31, 2012. The increase in working capital of $6.5 million was primarily due to investment in equity totaling $6.0 million received during the period, together with the $0.6 million generated from trading net of $1.9 million invested in tangible and intangible assets during the period.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to the Company.

ITEM 4.CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
|
Disclosure controls are procedures that are designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act, such as this report, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls are also designed with the objective of ensuring that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our management evaluated, with the participation of our current chief executive officer and chief financial officer (our “Certifying Officers”), the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2013, pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act. Based upon that evaluation, our Certifying Officers concluded that, because of the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting described in the Company’s report on Form 10-KT for the transition period from July 1, 2012 to December 31, 2012, and the Company’s failure to file all Current Reports on Form 8-K required under the Exchange Act within their required time periods during the past 12 months, as of September 30, 2013, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.
We do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all instances of fraud. Disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Further, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all disclosure controls and procedures, no evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures can provide absolute assurance that we have detected all our control deficiencies and instances of fraud, if any. The design of disclosure controls and procedures also is based partly on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.
(b)
|
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
|
During the quarter ended September 30, 2013, we added accounting personnel to address issues of timeliness and completeness of our US GAAP financial reporting. With the accounting personnel added in the second quarter, management believes that they are beginning to address and correct some of the material weakness indentified in the Form 10-KT for the transition period from July 1, 2012 to December 31, 2012 (including lack of in-house GAAP expertise and insufficient segregation of duties in our finance and accounting functions due to limited personnel). We also appointed two new independent directors to the Board of Directors. As a result, we now have at least three independent directors, one of whom qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” as such term is defined in Regulation S-K Item 407(d)(5)(ii), and we have formed audit, compensation and nominating committees that would meet NASDAQ rules and guidelines. Although there is no current requirement that we have an audit committee, we believe the formation of an independent audit committee will increase board oversight.
There were no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2013 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
28
PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings which arise in the ordinary course of business. We are currently not aware of any legal proceedings or claims that would require disclosure under Item 103 of Regulation S-K. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
Not applicable.
ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
In July 2013, the Company issued 33,333 shares of common stock as compensation for certain business services. The issuance was made in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Regulation S of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, as an offshore transaction involving only a non-U.S. offeree/purchaser. No placement agent was utilized in connection with the offer and sale of these shares. The share amount is adjusted to reflect a 1-for-600 reverse stock split effected as of August 6, 2013.
ITEM 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES
None.
ITEM 4. MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES
Not applicable.
ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION
As previously reported in a Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 12, 2013, at the Company’s 2013 annual meeting of shareholders pursuant to notice duly given, the Company held a non-binding advisory vote of shareholders on the preferred frequency with which the Company would hold a non-binding advisory shareholder vote to approve the compensation of the named executive officers. The results of the voting for this proposal were as follows:
Three years:

There have been no material changes to the procedures by which shareholders may recommend nominees to our board of directors since our last disclosure of such procedures in our Definitive Information Statement on Schedule 14C filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 26, 2013.
