Explanatory Note

Overview

Elephant Talk Communications Corp. (“we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Company”), is filing this Amendment No. 1 to its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Amendment”) to amend our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2013, originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on August 9, 2013 (the “Original 10-Q”). This Amendment restates our unaudited condensed interim financial statements and related financial disclosures for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013. This Amendment also amends certain other Items in the Original 10-Q, as listed in “Items in this Amendment” below, as a result of the restatement. Details of the impact of this restatement are discussed below and in Note 2 to the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Restatement Background

As described below and in Note 2, the restatement adjusts the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet ended June 30, 2013 for amounts related to warrant liabilities that were incorrectly valued, the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss for the three and six months periods ended June 30, 2013 for line items Changes in fair value of warrant liabilities and Net Loss, and the Statement of Cash Flows for line items Net Loss and in the section ‘Adjustments to reconcile net loss to net cash used in operating activities’, the ‘Change in Fair Value of Derivative Instruments’ was also adjusted.

On November 6, 2013, the audit committee of the board of directors of the Company and management concluded, after discussion with the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, BDO USA, LLP, that the consolidated financial statements included in the Original 10-Q should no longer be relied upon as a result of an error in presentation of warrant liabilities and Changes in fair value of warrant liabilities including in the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Sheet ended June 30, 2013 and the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Loss for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2013.

During the second quarter, the Company issued 17,425,621 shares of Common Stock and 7,841,537 warrants as well as 183,284 warrants (collectively, the “Warrants”) issued to fundraising agents in connection with the Company’s registered direct public offering (the “Offering”) pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the share purchase agreement described in Note 17. As a result of the terms and conditions attached to the Warrants, the Company determined that for the quantitative valuation of the Warrants it is more appropriate to use a Monte-Carlo Simulation model instead of a Black-Scholes valuation model as used in the Original 10-Q. Management of the Company believes that the Monte-Carlo Simulation model is a more dynamic model, which accommodates variable inputs.

The restatement impacted the value of Warrant Liabilities in the Statement of Financial Position, which increased from $2,428,919 as originally filed, to $5,291,351 as restated. It also impacted the line ‘Changes in fair value of warrant liabilities’ for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 in the Statement of Comprehensive Loss with a decrease of $426,450, while the Net Loss increased by $426,450 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013. In the Statement of Cash Flows, the Net Loss increased by $426,450, while in the section ‘Adjustments to reconcile net loss to net cash used in operating activities’, the ‘Change in Fair Value of Derivative Instruments’ increased by $426,450. It did not impact on the Company’s previously reported total cash and cash equivalents, revenue, cost and operating expenses and cash flows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013.

The table below presents the effect of the restatement on the consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and six months period ended June 30, 2013 :

Internal Control Consideration:

Our management has determined that there was a control deficiency in our internal controls over financial reporting that constitutes a material weakness and has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2013 as a result of the valuation determination of the warrant liabilities that resulted in the restatement of our financial statements for the period ended June 30, 2013.

Items Amended in this Amendment:

For the convenience of the reader, this Amendment sets forth the Original 10-Q in its entirety, as modified and superseded where necessary to reflect the restatement. The following items in the Original 10-Q have been amended as a result of, and to reflect, the restatement:

· Part 1- Item 1- Financial Statements (Unaudited) including Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements

· Part 1 -Item 2 – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

· Part 1- Item 4 – Controls and Procedures

In accordance with applicable SEC rules, this Amendment includes new certifications required under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), dated as of the filing date of this Amendment.

We have not updated items in this Amendment to reflect events occurring after the Original 10-Q date, other than those associated with the restatement of our financial statements. Accordingly, this Amendment should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Original 10-Q and the Company’s subsequent filings with the SEC.

In light of the restatement, readers should not rely on the Company’s previously filed financial statements as of and for the three month and six months period ended June 30, 2013.

Going Concern

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. Historically, we have relied on a combination of debt and equity financings to fund our on-going cash requirements.

The Company’s operations have not yet resulted in positive cash flow and accordingly, management pursues on-going efforts in attracting financing and consequently closed a total of $13,525,000 in financing in the second quarter of 2013 consisting of the following:

- registered direct offering with gross proceeds of $12,000,000 in equity

- unregistered sale of securities with gross proceeds of $225,000 in equity

- debt financing with a 1 year maturity of $1,300,000 (which was subsequently terminated and replaced by a straight equity investment)

After deduction of fund raising expenses of $707,500, the abovementioned fundraises resulted in net proceeds of $12,817,500. Of these net proceeds $7,747,933 has been used to pay two installments and fully extinguish the 2012 8% senior secured convertible debt.

With the settlement of the outstanding convertible debt, the pledged assets of the Company have been released and have become available for follow on financing in order to complete the Company’s required funding efforts.

With cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2013 of $2,979,673, the improvement of net cash used in operating activities and the intention of the company to close additional financing in the third quarter of 2013 the company feels that it can carry out is operational plans for the coming 12 months. However, there can be no assurance that such additional financing will be closed in such period.

If the Company is unable to secure additional capital, it may not be able to continue operations. As of June 30, 2013, these conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Note 2. Restatement of unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements

On November 6, 2013, the Company concluded that the condensed consolidated financial statements for the period ended June 30, 2013 that the Company previously included in its Original 10-Q that was filed initially August 9, 2013 should be restated and should no longer be relied on.

In the second quarter the Company issued 17,425,621 shares of Common Stock and 7,841,537 warrants as well as 183,284 warrants (collectively, the “Warrants”) issued to fundraising agents in the Offering pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the share purchase agreement described in Note 16. As a result of the terms and conditions attached to the Warrants, the Company determined that for the quantitative valuation of the Warrants it is more appropriate to use a Monte-Carlo Simulation model instead of a Black-Scholes valuation model as used in the Original 10-Q. Management of the Company believes that the Monte-Carlo Simulation model is a more dynamic model, which accommodates variable inputs.

The impact of the Monte-Carlo Simulation model calculation on the affected line items of the Company’s quarterly financial statements is set forth below.

The restatement has no impact on the Company’s previously reported total cash and cash equivalents, revenue, cost and operating expenses and the net cash used/ or provided from operating, investing and financing activities reported in the Consolidated Statements of Cash flows (other than the Net Loss and in the section “Adjustments to reconcile net loss to net cash used in operating activities”, the ”Change in Fair Value of Derivative Instruments”).

As detailed in the table below, this restatement impacts the following consolidated statements and line items:

Note 3. Significant Accounting Policies

Currency Translation

The functional currency is the Euro for both the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary Elephant Talk Europe Holding B.V. and its subsidiaries and for its wholly-owned subsidiary Elephant Talk Global Holding B.V., the Hong Kong Dollar for its wholly-owned subsidiary Elephant Talk Limited and the British Pound Sterling for its wholly-owned subsidiary ValidSoft (UK) Ltd. The financial statements of these subsidiaries were translated to US Dollars using period-end exchange rates as to assets and liabilities and average exchange rates as to revenues and expenses, and capital accounts were translated at their historical exchange rates when the capital transaction occurred. In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 830, Foreign Currency Matters” (“ASC 830”), net gains and losses resulting from translation of foreign currency financial statements are included in the statements of shareholder’s equity as accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are included in consolidated income/(loss).

The accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss) as presented in the stockholders’ equity as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 was ($1,266,977) and ($732,090), respectively. The foreign currency translation gain (/loss) for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 was ($1,296,649) and ($909,694), respectively. The foreign currency translation gain (/loss) for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 was ($534,887) and ($1,779,477).

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements conforms with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For purposes of the cash flow statements, the Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash represents cash deposited on blocked accounts as guarantees for national interconnection and wholesale agreements with telecom operators.

Accounts Receivables, net

The Company’s customer base consists of geographically diverse customers. The Company maintains an allowance for potential credit losses on accounts receivable. Management reviews the composition of accounts receivable on a customer by customer basis and analyzes historical bad debt, customer concentrations, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment patterns to evaluate the adequacy of these allowances. As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the allowance for doubtful accounts was $486,591and $559,120, respectively.

Revenue Recognition and Deferred Revenue

The Company’s revenue recognition policies are in compliance with ASC 605, “Revenue Recognition” (“ASC 605”). Revenue is recognized only when all of the following conditions have been met: (i) there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement; (ii) delivery has occurred; (iii) the fee is fixed or determinable; and (iv) collectability of the fee is reasonably assured. The Company derives revenue from activities as a fixed-line, security and mobile services provider with its network and its own switching technology. Revenue represents amounts earned for telecommunication and security services provided to customers (net of value added tax and inter-company revenue). Revenue is recorded as deferred revenue before all of the relevant criteria for revenue recognition are satisfied. Deferred revenue represents amounts received from the customers against future sales of services since the Company recognizes revenue upon performing the services.

In managed services contracts and in other long term contracts, revenue from the operation of a customer’s system is recognized either as services are performed based on time elapsed, output produced or volume of data processed, depending on the specific contract terms of the managed services arrangement. Typically, managed services contracts are long term in duration and are not subject to seasonality. Revenue from ongoing support services is recognized as work is performed.

Cost of Service

Cost of service includes origination, termination, network and billing charges from telecommunications operators, out payment costs to content and information providers, network costs, data center costs, facility costs of hosting network and equipment, and costs of providing resale arrangements with long distance service providers, costs of leasing transmission facilities and international gateway switches for voice and data transmission services.

Segments

ASC 820, “Segment Reporting” (“ASC 820”), defines operating segments as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performances. The Company operates in a single business segment because operating and strategic decisions are made by decision makers who monitor the Company as a whole.

Stock-based Compensation

We follow the provisions of ASC 718 “Compensation-Stock Compensation”, (“ASC 718”). Under ASC 718, stock-based awards are recorded at fair value as of the grant date and recognized as expense with an adjustment for forfeiture over the employee’s requisite service period (the vesting period, generally up to three years), which we have elected to amortize on a straight-line basis.

To determine the value of our stock options at the grant date under our employee stock option plan, we currently use the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The use of this model requires us to make a number of subjective assumptions. The following addresses each of these assumptions and describes our methodology for determining each assumption:

Expected Life

The expected life represents the period that the stock option awards are expected to be outstanding. We use the simplified method for estimating the expected life of the option, by taking the average between time to vesting and the contract life of the award.

10

Expected Volatility

We estimate expected cumulative volatility giving consideration to the expected life of the option of the respective award, and the calculated annual volatility by using the continuously compounded return calculated by using the share closing prices of an equal number of days prior to the grant-date (reference period). The annual volatility is used to determine the (cumulative) volatility of our common stock (= annual volatility x SQRT (expected life)).

Forfeiture Rate

The Company is using the aggregate forfeiture rate. The aggregate forfeiture rate is the ratio of pre-vesting forfeitures over the awards granted (Pre-vesting forfeitures/grants). The forfeiture discount (additional loss) is released into the statement of operations in the same period as the option vesting-date. The forfeiture rate is actualized every reporting period.

Risk-Free Interest Rate

We estimate the risk-free interest rate using the “Daily Treasury Yield Curve Rates” set by the U.S. Treasury Department with a term equal to the reported rate, or derived by using both spreads in intermediate term and rates, compared to the expected life of the award.

Expected Dividend Yield

We estimate the expected dividend yield by giving consideration to our current dividend policies as well as those anticipated in the future considering our current plans and projections. We do not currently calculate a discount for any post-vesting restrictions to which our awards may be subject.

For the executive officers the Company is using the contractual life instead of expected life of an option.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740, “Accounting for Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”) (formerly SFAS No. 109). This statement requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the future consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company’s financial statements or tax returns. The measurement of the deferred items is based on enacted tax laws. In the event the future consequences of differences between financial reporting bases and the tax bases of the Company’s assets and liabilities result in a deferred tax asset, ASC 740 requires an evaluation of the probability of being able to realize the future benefits indicated by such asset. A valuation allowance related to a deferred tax asset is recorded when it is more likely than not that some portion or the entire deferred tax asset will not be realized. As part of the process of preparing our consolidated financial statements, we are required to estimate our income tax expense in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate. In the ordinary course of a global business, there are many transactions and calculations where the ultimate tax outcome is uncertain. Some of these uncertainties arise as a consequence of revenue sharing and reimbursement arrangements among related entities, the process of identifying items of revenue and expenses that qualify for preferential tax treatment and segregation of foreign and domestic income and expense to avoid double taxation. We also assess temporary differences resulting from differing treatment of items, such as deferred revenue, for tax and accounting differences. These differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which are included within our consolidated balance sheet. We may record a valuation allowance to reduce our deferred tax assets to the amount of future tax benefit that is more likely than not to be realized. Although we believe that our estimates are reasonable and that we have considered future taxable income and ongoing prudent and feasible tax strategies in estimating our tax outcome and in assessing the need for the valuation allowance, there is no assurance that the final tax outcome and the valuation allowance will not be different than those that are reflected in our historical income tax provisions and accruals.

ASC 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement methodology to recognize and measure an income tax position taken, or expected to be taken, in a tax return. The evaluation of a tax position is based on a two-step approach. The first step requires an entity to evaluate whether the tax position would “more likely than not” be sustained upon examination by the appropriate taxing authority. The second step requires the tax position be measured at the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. In addition, previously recognized benefits from tax positions that no longer meet the new criteria would be derecognized.

11

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, various state jurisdictions and various foreign jurisdictions. The Company's income tax returns are open to examination by federal, state and foreign tax authorities, generally for the years ended December 31, 2008 and later, with certain state jurisdictions open for audit for earlier years. The Company has no amount recorded for any unrecognized tax benefits as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, nor did the Company record any amount for the implementation of ASC 740. The Company's policy is to record estimated interest and penalty related to the underpayment of income taxes or unrecognized tax benefits as a component of its income tax provision. During the first six months 2013 and 2012, the Company did not recognize any interest or penalties in its statements of operations and there are no accruals for interest or penalties at June 30, 2013 or December 31, 2012.

Comprehensive Income/(Loss)

Comprehensive income/(loss) includes all changes in equity during a period from non-owner sources. Other comprehensive loss refers to gains and losses that under “GAAP” are recorded as an element of stockholders’ equity but are excluded from net income. In the first half year of the years 2013 and 2012, the Company’s comprehensive income/(loss) consisted of its net loss and foreign currency translation adjustments.

Intangible Assets

In accordance with ASC 350, intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortization and impairment charges. Intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over the expected useful lives of the assets, between three and ten years. Other intangible assets are reviewed for impairment in accordance with ASC 350, on an annual basis, or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. Measurement of any impairment loss for long-lived assets and identifiable intangible assets that management expects to hold and use is based on the amount of the carrying value that exceeds the fair value of the asset.

Property and Equipment, Internally Developed and Third Party Software

The Company has adopted the provisions of ASC 985, Software. Property and equipment are initially recorded at cost. Additions and improvements are capitalized, while expenditures that do not enhance the assets or extend the useful life are charged to operating expenses as incurred. Included in property and equipment are certain costs related to the development of the Company’s internally developed software technology platform. We capitalize all costs related to software developed or obtained for internal use when management commits to funding the project and the project completes the preliminary project stage. Capitalization of such costs ceases when the project is substantially complete and ready for its intended use.

The Company has capitalized certain computer software development costs upon the establishment of technological feasibility. Technological feasibility is considered to have occurred upon completion of a detailed program design that has been confirmed by documenting the product specifications, or to the extent that a detailed program design is not pursued, upon completion of a working model that has been confirmed by testing to be consistent with the product design. Depreciation applied using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets once the assets are placed in service. Once a new functionality or improvement is released for operational use, the asset is moved from the property and equipment category “projects under construction” to a property and equipment asset subject to depreciation in accordance with the principle described in the previous sentence.

Fair Value Measurements

In accordance with ASC 820 Fair Value Measurement, the Company defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e., the exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available.

12

Observable inputs are those that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s assumptions about the inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.

The fair value hierarchy is categorized into three levels based on the inputs as follows:

Level 1 – Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reported date.

Level 2 – Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date. The nature of these financial instruments include cash instruments for which quoted prices are available but are traded less frequently, derivative instruments whose fair values have been derived using a model where inputs to the model are directly observable in the market and instruments that are fair valued using other financial instruments, the parameters of which can be directly observed.

Level 3 – Instruments that have little to no pricing observability as of the reported date. These financial instruments are measured using management’s best estimate of fair value, where the inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or estimation.

The degree of judgment exercised by the Company in determining fair value is greatest for securities categorized in Level 3. In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls in its entirety is determined by the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The following table summarizes fair value measurements by level at June 30, 2013 for financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

	June 30, 2013
	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Liability Derivatives
Conversion feature	$	-	$	-	$	-	$	-
Warrant Liabilities	$	-	$	-	$	5,291,351	$	5,291,351
Total liability derivatives	$	-	$	-	$	5,291,351	$	5,291,351

The following table summarizes fair value measurements by level at December 31, 2012 for financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

	December 31, 2012
	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total

Warrant Liabilities	$	-	$	-	$	-	$	-
Total liability derivatives	$	-	$	-	$	311,986	$	311,986

We have classified the various outstanding warrants into level 3 due to the fact that some inputs are not published and not easily comparable to industry peers. The warrants are a result of the SPA agreement closed in June 2013 and consist of 4,948,680 warrants issued to ‘DJ investors’, 2,892,857 warrants issued to ‘affiliate investors’ and 183,284 warrants issued to the placement agent ‘agent warrants’(see Note 15).

The conversion feature derivative liability extinguished due to the early repayment of the 8% Senior Secured Convertible Note.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

On March 4, 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-05, Foreign Currency Matters (Topic 830) Parent’s Accounting for the Cumulative Translation Adjustment upon Derecognition of Certain Subsidiaries or Groups of Assets within a Foreign Entity or of an Investment in a Foreign Entity (“ASU 2013-05”). ASU 2013-05 updates accounting guidance related to the application of consolidation guidance and foreign currency matters. This guidance resolves the diversity in practice about what guidance applies to the release of the cumulative translation adjustment into net income. This guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2013. The Company is evaluating the potential impact of this adoption on its consolidated financial statements.

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-02, Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income. This ASU requires companies to report the effect of significant reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income on the respective line items in net income when applicable or to cross-reference the reclassifications with other disclosures that provide additional detail about the reclassification made when the reclassifications are not made to net income. This ASU is effective for fiscal years and interim periods, beginning after December 15, 2012. During the six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company adopted ASU 2013-02 and the adoption did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements since the Company did not have material reclassifications in any periods presented.

In February 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued Accounting Standards Update, or ASU, No. 2013-04, Liabilities (Topic 405): Obligations Resulting from Joint and Several Liability Arrangements for which the Total Amount of the Obligation Is Fixed at the Reporting Date (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force). This ASU addresses the recognition, measurement, and disclosure of certain obligations resulting from joint and several arrangements including debt arrangements, other contractual obligations, and settled litigation and judicial rulings. The ASU is effective for public entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. The Company is evaluating the potential impact of this adoption on its consolidated financial statements.

In July 2012, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2012-02, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment. To be consistent with the guidance found under ASU 2011-08, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for Impairment, ASU 2012-02 is intended to simplify impairment testing for indefinite-lived intangible assets other than goodwill by adding a qualitative review step to assess whether the required quantitative impairment analysis that exists today is necessary. Under the amended rule, a company will not be required to calculate the fair value of a business that contains recorded indefinite-lived intangible assets other than goodwill unless it concludes, based on the qualitative assessment, that it is more likely than not that the fair value of that business is less than its book value. If such a decline in fair value is deemed more likely than not to have occurred, then the quantitative impairment test that exists under current GAAP must be completed; otherwise, the indefinite lived assets other than goodwill are deemed to be not impaired and no further testing is required until the next annual test date (or sooner if conditions or events before that date raise concerns of potential impairment in the business). This new standard is effective for the Company beginning June 1, 2013. The Company does not expect this to have a material impact on its financial statements.

Note 4. Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets

Prepaid expenses and other current assets amounted to $2,194,320 as of June 30, 2013, compared with $1,821,218 as of December 31, 2012. As of June 30, 2013, $760,970 of the prepaid expenses was related to prepaid Value Added Tax (“VAT”). As of December 31, 2012, prepaid VAT represented $534,327.

Note 5. Other Assets

Other assets are long-term in nature and consist of long-term deposits and deferred financing costs.

14

Long-term Deposit

As of June 30, 2013, there were long-term deposits to various telecom carriers during the course of its operations and a deposit towards the French Tax Authorities together totaling $ 621,182, compared with $657,192 as of December 31, 2012. The deposits are refundable at the termination of the business relationship with the carriers.

Deferred Financing Costs

For its funding related activities the Company incurred costs related to perfecting the pledges on assets, contract review fees from lawyers and some other smaller fees. The 8% Senior Secured Convertible Loan issued on March 29, 2012 was fully repaid in the second quarter of 2013. This resulted in accelerating the recognition of the deferred financing cost balance of $265,995 during the second quarter of 2013. The outstanding balance at June 30, 2013, was zero and the outstanding balance at December 31, 2012 was $381,114.

The Company’s Property and Equipment also include the capitalization of its systems engineering and software programming activities. Typically, these investments pertain to the Company’s:

· Intelligent Network (IN) platform;

· CRM provisioning Software;

· Mediation, Rating & Pricing engine;

· ValidSoft security software applications;

· Operations and business support software;

Note 8. Telnicity Asset Purchase Agreement

On April 1, 2013, the Company, through its subsidiary Elephant Talk North America Corp, entered into an asset purchase agreement to acquire substantially all the assets of Telnicity LLC (Telnicity) for consideration of US$1,180,000.  Telicity is United States company that provides access to the U.S. mobile telecommunications market through relationships with several major U.S.-based mobile telecommunication companies as well as its complementary technological mobile capabilities. The assets and operations are consolidated into the financials of the Company as of April 1, 2013.

The Company issued 1,000,000 shares of its Common Stock as consideration for the acquisition.  At the time of issuance, each share had a market value of $1.18, thus totaling US$ 1,180,000.  For this price consideration we acquired US$1,180,000 in identifiable intangible assets (customer relationships, carrier relationships and acquired technology) and assumed no liabilities. Some of the estimated fair values may change as additional information is obtained during the measurement period within one year of the acquisition date. The related acquisition costs were not significant.

Note 9. Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of cost over the fair value of assets of acquired businesses. Goodwill is not amortized, but instead is evaluated for impairment using a discounted cash flow model and other measurements of fair value such as market comparable transactions. The authoritative guidance for the goodwill impairment model includes a two-step process. First, it requires a comparison of the book value of net assets to the fair value of the reporting unit that have goodwill assigned to them. If the fair value is determined to be less than the book value, a second step is performed to compute the amount of impairment. In the second step, a fair value for goodwill is estimated, based in part of the fair value of the reporting unit used in the first step, and is compared to its carrying value. The shortfall of the fair value below carrying value, if any, would represent the amount of goodwill impairment.

16

We assess goodwill for impairment in the fourth quarter of each fiscal year, or sooner should there be an indicator of impairment. The Company periodically analyzes whether any such indicators of impairment exists. Such indicators include a sustained, significant decline in the Company’s stock price and market capitalization, a decline in the Company’s expected future cash flows, a significant adverse change in legal factors or in the business climate, unanticipated competition, and/or slower growth rate, among others.

After considering qualitative factors including the Company’s market capitalization , we concluded that, for the second quarter of 2013, a goodwill impairment test was required. In performing the first step of the two-step goodwill impairment test, the Company determined that the fair value of the Company as a single reporting unit, measured by the Company’s market capitalization, exceeded the carrying value by a significant amount indicating no impairment was necessary.

The carrying value of the Company’s goodwill as of June 30, 2013 and as of December 31, 2012 was as follows:

Goodwill	June 30,			December 31,
	2013			2012
Goodwill at acquisition of ValidSoft Ltd	$	3,433,833		$	3,433,833
Goodwill Morodo		214,689			214,689
End of period exchange rate translation		(267,104	)		(211,791	)
Total	$	3,381,418		$	3,436,731

Note 10. Overdraft

In 2004, Elephant Talk Ltd, a subsidiary of the Company, executed a credit facility with a bank in Hong Kong pursuant to which Elephant Talk Ltd. borrowed funds. As of June 30, 2013, the overdraft balance, including accrued interest totaled, $369,859 compared to $350,114 as of December 31, 2012. The interest rate and default payment interest rate were charged at 2% and 6% per annum above the Lender’s Hong Kong Dollar Prime Rate quoted by the Lender from time to time. The Company has not guaranteed the credit facility or is otherwise obligated to pay funds drawn upon it on behalf of Elephant Talk Ltd. Further detail can be found in Note 22, Litigations.

Note 11. Deferred Revenue

Deferred revenue represents amounts received from the customers against future sales of services since the Company recognizes revenue upon performing the services. They typically represent implementation fees. Deferred revenue was $482,381 and $252,551 as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.

Note 12. Accrued expenses

In December 2009, Chong Hing Bank Limited, formerly known as Liu Chong Hing Bank Limited, a foreign banking services company based in Hong Kong (Bank), commenced a lawsuit in the California Orange County Superior Court called Chong Hing Bank Limited v. Elephant Talk Communications, Inc., Case No. 30-2009-00328467.

The Bank alleged that it entered into various installment and term loan agreements and an overdraft account with Elephant Talk Limited (ETL), a wholly-owned Hong Kong subsidiary of the Company. Various former officers and directors of ETL personally guaranteed the loans and overdraft account.

The Bank alleged that ETL was in default on the loans and overdraft account, and that approximately $1,933,308 including interest and default interest was due. The Bank alleged that the Company was directly liable to repay the loans and overdraft account as a successor in interest to ETL or because the Company expressly or impliedly assumed direct liability for the loans and overdraft account. The Company denied the Bank’s allegations and asserted several affirmative defenses. The Company contended that it had no direct liability to the Bank, and that the Bank must pursue its recourse against ETL and its personal guarantors.

The Bank and the Company tried the case in the court without a jury between October, 5 and 12, 2011. The court found, among other things, that

· The Company was not liable as a successor in interest or otherwise on the Bank loans and overdraft account to ETL;

· The Company was not liable on the Bank’s claims because the Bank filed its action after the applicable California 4-year statute of limitations had expired; and

· The Company was not liable to the Bank under the alternative theories of negligent or intentional misrepresentation.

The court entered judgment in favor of Elephant Talk Communications Corp. and against the Bank on December 14, 2011, and awarded the Company $5,925 in costs. The judgment became final on February 16, 2012. We continue to accrue for these loans since our subsidiary ETL in Hong Kong, alleged by the Bank as the contractual party, may be still held liable for these loans.

Note 14. 8% Senior Secured Convertible Note

On June 11, 2013, Elephant Talk Communications Corp. entered into a Purchase Agreement with each holder of the Company’s Senior Secured Convertible Notes issued on March 29, 2012 pursuant to which the Company purchased the Convertible Notes at the purchase price equal to 110% of the aggregate of the outstanding principal amount of the Convertible Notes and interest due. The aggregate purchase price paid to the holders of the Convertible Notes was $6,701,824 which was paid out from the proceeds of the Share Purchase Agreements described under Note 15.

18

The Purchase Agreement with the note holders resulted in the regular and accelerated amortization expenses during the second quarter of $349,639 for the (OID) original issue discount, $1,179,732 for the (CF) conversion feature and $310,995 for the remaining financing costs of the note. The release of the balance of the fair market value of the conversion feature resulted in a gain of $451,779. Furthermore the 10% prepayment fee of $607,538 on the purchase price compared to the net outstanding principal was recorded as a loss in the income statement as part of the Loss of Extinguishment of Debt. The total Loss on Extinguishment of Debt was calculated at an amount of $1,938,597.

Note 15. 12% Unsecured Loan from Affiliate

On May 24, 2013, the Company entered into a certain loan agreement with a member of its board of directors pursuant to which the Company borrowed a principal amount of €1,000,000 ($1,290,790) for a period of one year at the interest rate of 12% per annum (“Loan Agreement”) and issued a warrant (“Warrant”) to the director to purchase 1,253,194 restricted shares of Common Stock exercisable at $1.03 per share for a term of 5 years, with a mandatory cash exercise after 12 months in case the average closing bid price is $1.55 or higher for 10 consecutive trading days.

Following ASC 470-20 guidance the Company allocated the fair market value, using the binomial valuation method, of the detachable warrants between equity and debt and accounted for the debt component separately, with the debt discount off set against paid-in capital. The debt discount being the initial fair market value of the warrants amounted to $434,433 and will be amortized using the effective interest method during the life of the loan.

Subsequent to the above, the Company entered into an amendment on July 14, 2013 to terminate the Loan Agreement, which is more fully described under Note 25 (subsequent events).

Note 16. Registered Direct Offering

On June 11, 2013, Elephant Talk Communications Corp. (the “Company”) entered into Amendment No. 1 (the “Amendment to SPA”) to certain Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) dated June 3, 2013 with certain institutional and other investors (“DJ Investors”) placed by Dawson James Securities Inc. (the “Placement Agent”) and Mr. Steven van der Velden, the Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board (“Affiliated Investors”), relating to a registered direct public offering by the Company (the “Offering”). The gross proceeds of this SPA was $12,000,000 and resulted in net proceed of $11,292,500 after deduction of $707,500 for fundraising related expenses to various parties involved. An amount of $6,701,824 from the net proceed was used to pay off the outstanding 8% Senior Secured Convertible Notes issued in 2012.

The Company issued 17,425,621 shares of Common Stock and 7,841,537 warrants (the “Warrants”) as well as 183,284 warrants issued to fundraising agents in the Offering pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the SPA, under the Company’s shelf registration statement filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on May 29, 2012, as amended on May 30, 2012 and June 6, 2012.

The Warrants have a five year term from the date of issuance, are exercisable at the price of $0.887 for the investor warrants and $0.853 for the ‘agent warrants’ per share immediately from the date of issuance and include provisions governing the adjustments to the number of Warrant Shares exercisable thereunder upon stock dividends, stock splits, and other events. The Warrants may be transferred by a holder thereof in accordance with applicable securities laws.

In the event that among other things, the registration statement relating to the shares of Common Stock is not effective, a holder of Warrants also will have the right, in its sole discretion, to exercise such Warrants for a net number of Warrant Shares pursuant to the cashless exercise procedures specified in the Warrants. Warrants may be exercised in whole or in part until the termination date of such Warrant,. The absence of an effective registration statement or applicable exemption from registration does not alleviate the Company’s obligation to deliver Common Stock issuable upon exercise of a Warrant.

Each Warrant also allows the holder the ability, at any time after 90 days from the issuance of the Warrant through its expiration, to put the Warrant back to the Company in exchange for shares of Common Stock equal to the value of the Warrant at the time of the exchange based on a negotiated Black-Scholes formula. Under certain circumstances, the holder may receive cash in lieu of such shares of Common Stock.

19

Under certain circumstances after 90 days from the issuance of the Warrant, in the event that the Common Stock trades at a price that is 20% or more above the exercise price of the Warrants for a period of twenty consecutive trading days (with an average daily volume equal to or greater than $350,000), the Company may require the holder of the Warrants to exercise the Warrants for cash.

If, at any time a Warrant is outstanding, the Company consummates a fundamental transaction(as described in the Warrants and generally including any consolidation or merger into another corporation, or the sale of all or substantially all of our assets, or other transaction in which the Common Stock is converted into or exchanged for other securities or other consideration) the holder of any Warrants will thereafter receive, the securities or other consideration to which a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock then deliverable upon the exercise or exchange of such Warrants would have been entitled upon such fundamental transaction.

The exercisability or exchangeability of the Warrants may be limited in certain circumstances if, after giving effect to such exercise or exchange, the holder or any of its affiliates would beneficially own (as determined pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder) more than 9.9% of the Common Stock issued and outstanding.

According to ASC 480-10, the accounting for an equity instrument with detachable warrants classified as a liability reflects the notion that the consideration received upon issuance must be allocated between the instruments issued. Proceeds from the issuance of an equity instrument with stock purchase warrants are allocated to the two elements based on the following: (i) the liability element has initially been recorded at fair market value; (ii) the remaining portion of the consideration has been allocated to the equity element.

The liability instrument will be re-evaluated at each reporting period with changes in the fair value recognized through the current period income statement.

Note 17. Loan from Joint Venture Partner

As of June 30, 2013, the Company’s 51% owned subsidiary ET-UTS N.V. has $578,518 outstanding in interest bearing (8% per annum) unsecured loans from the 49% shareholder in the joint venture, United Telecommunication Services N.V., the government owned incumbent telecom operator of Curaçao. The amount is inclusive of accumulated accrued interest. No maturity date has been fixed. The amount outstanding as of December 31, 2012 was $555,907.

Note 18. Stockholders’ Equity

(A) Common Stock

The Company is presently authorized to issue 250,000,000 shares common stock. The Company had 133,139,900 shares of common shares issued and outstanding as of June 30, 2013, an increase of 21,221,549 shares since December 31, 2012, largely due to the shares issued in connection with the 2013 Registered Direct Offering (described under Note 15) which resulted in the issuance of a total number of shares of 17,425,621, 250,000 shares were issued as a result of a share purchase agreement with a non-affiliate investor; 1,457,019 shares as a result of the exercise of 3,567,965 warrants; 13,000 shares issued to employees as a result of exercised employee stock options; 425,892 shares issued as consideration for executive officers and directors compensation; 400,000 shares after a settlement agreement with a former landlord of one of our offices after termination of the rental contract and 1,250,000 shares were issued for full consideration for the shares of the acquisition of Morodo (250,000) and the asset purchase agreement with Telnicity (1,000,000) which was concluded in the six months ended June 30, 2013.

20

Reconciliation with stock transfer agent records:

The shares issued and outstanding as of June 30, 2013 according to the stock transfer agent’s records are 135,944,738. The difference in number of issued shares recognized by the Company of 133,139,900 shares is the result of the exclusion of the 233,900 unreturned shares from ‘cancelled’ acquisitions (pre-2006), 12,000 treasury shares issued under employee benefits plan and the 2,558,938 contingent shares in connection with the ValidSoft acquisition which are kept in escrow.

(B) Preferred Stock

The Company’s Certificate of Incorporation (“Articles”) authorizes the issuance of 50,000,000 shares of 0.00001 par value Preferred Stock. No shares of Preferred Stock are currently issued and outstanding. Under the Company’s Articles, the Board of Directors has the power, without further action by the holders of the Common Stock, to designate the relative rights and preferences of the preferred stock, and issue the preferred stock in such one or more series as designated by the Board of Directors. The designation of rights and preferences could include preferences as to liquidation, redemption and conversion rights, voting rights, dividends or other preferences, any of which may be dilutive of the interest of the holders of the Common Stock or the Preferred Stock of any other series. The issuance of Preferred Stock may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company without further shareholder action and may adversely affect the rights and powers, including voting rights, of the holders of Common Stock. In certain circumstances, the issuance of preferred stock could depress the market price of the Common Stock.

During 2012 and 2013, the Company did not issue any shares of Preferred Stock and no shares of Preferred Stock were outstanding as of June 30, 2013.

(C) Warrants

Throughout the years the Company has issued warrants with varying terms and conditions related to multiple funding rounds, acquisitions, and other transactions. During the second quarter of 2013, the number of outstanding warrants decreased by 2,394,627 due to the expiration of warrants related to fundraising activities in 2008 and 2010 and increased due to the closing of funding agreements in May and June 2013 (described under Notes 14 and 15) by 9,278,015 warrants of which 183,284 warrants were issued to the ‘Placement Agent’ as part of the fund raising fees and 1,253,194 warrants were issued as part of the agreement relating to the 12% unsecured loan from an affiliate. The Weighted Average Exercise Price for the currently outstanding warrants in the table below is $1.17. The below table summarizes the warrants outstanding as per June 30, 2013 and closing December 2012:

Outstanding Warrants	Exercise/ Conversion price(s) (range)	Expiring	June 2013		December 2012
Warrants - Acquisitions	$0.63 - $2.25	2013		1,007,372		3,437,953
Warrants - Fundraising	$0.85 - $2.00	2013 - 2018		41,177,143		46,322,101
Warrants - Other	$2.21	2016		18,659		18,659
				42,203,174		49,778,713

Note 19. Basic and diluted net loss per share

Net loss per share is calculated in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings per Share (“ASC 260”). Basic net loss per share is based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Dilution is computed by applying the treasury stock method. Under this method, options and warrants are assumed to be exercised at the beginning of the period (or at the time of issuance, if later), and as if funds obtained thereby were used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period. The weighted average number of shares used to compute basic and diluted loss per share is the same since the effect of dilutive securities is anti-dilutive.

Note 20. Employee Benefit Plan and Non-Qualified Stock Option and Compensation Plan

2006 Non-Qualified Stock and Option Compensation Plan

Under this plan there are 75,000 stock options outstanding as of June 30, 2013, which have all vested. The options generally vested over a three year period. During Q2 2013, 235,947 shares were issued under this plan for the Q1 2013 non-cash compensation granted to management and board members. There are 364,053 shares and 14,490 stock options that remain available for issuance under the plan. Options generally expire 2 years from the date of vesting. During the six months ended June 30, 2013, there were no grants, exercises, cancellations nor forfeitures. The current 75,000 outstanding options, if not exercised, will expire in 2013 with various expiration dates.

Following is a summary of the status of options outstanding at June 30, 2013:

	Options outstanding					Options exercisable
Range of exercise prices	Total options outstanding		Weighted average remaining contractual life (years)	Weighted average exercise price		Options exercisable		Weighted average exercise price
$ 2.25 - $ 2.65		75,000	0.23 years	$	2.25		75,000	$	2.25

The non-cash compensation granted to management and board members relating to the issued shares under this plan have been accounted for through profit and loss for an amount of $261,194. At June 30, 2013, the total compensation cost related to unvested stock-based awards granted to employees under the provisions of ASC 718 and the Company’s 2006 stock award plan, but not yet recognized was $0.

2008 Long-Term Incentive Plan

In 2008, the Company adopted an incentive plan. This incentive plan initially provided for total authorized awards of up to 5,000,000 shares of common stock, in the form of incentive and non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, performance units, restricted stock awards and performance bonuses. The amount of common stock underlying the awards to be granted remained the same after the 25 to one reverse stock-split that was effectuated on June 11, 2008.

In 2011, the Company filed, after approval of the shareholders, an “Amended and Restated 2008 Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan”, which increased the amount of shares available for issuance under the 2008 plan to 23,000,000 shares of common stock in order to cover future grants under this Plan.

Reconciliation of registered and available shares and/or options as of June 30, 2013:

	Three months ended June 30, 2013		Balance June 30, 2013

22

During the second quarter of 2013, no shares were issued to consultants under the Plan although the Company issued a total number of 325,000 shares during the term of the plan. As of 2012 the Company decided, in order to avoid costly separate registrations for the quarterly recurring share issues and the obligatory registration of such shares, to issue the non-cash compensation to directors and officers under this plan. During the first six months of 2013 the Company issued 189,945 shares to various directors and officers, which were issued in conjunction with their willingness to receive all or part of their cash compensation in shares of the Company.

During the second quarter of 2013 the total outstanding options under the Plan increased by 5,290,621 options due to the annual grant of options under the Company’s performance management program and currently a total of 20,077,064 stock options are outstanding under the Plan. Currently 325,000 shares of restricted common stock have been issued to consultants, 1,196,366 shares of common stock had been issued towards directors and officers and another 955,067 shares were issued as a result of exercised options during the existence of this plan.

Options granted generally vest immediately or up to a three-year period after grant date. Although options have been granted with a shorter term than two years, options generally expire between two and ten years from date of grant.

Common stock purchase options consisted of the following as of the six months ended June 30, 2013 and the years ended December 31, 2012:

	Number of Options			Weighted Average Exercise Price		Initial Fair Market Value (Outstanding Options)
Options:
Outstanding as of December 31, 2012		12,205,717		$	2.15	$	15,316,144
Granted in 2013		8,369,787		$	0.89	$	3,459,994
Exercised (with delivery of shares)		(13,000	)	$	0.68	$	(7,779	)
Forfeitures (Pre-vesting)		(402,702	)	$	1.02	$	(409,784	)
Expirations (Post-vesting)		(89,405	)	$	2.13	$	(190,548	)
Exchanged for Cashless exercise		-		$	-	$	-
Outstanding as of June 30, 2013		20,070,397		$	1.63	$	18,168,027

The options granted in 2013 were granted with a weighted average exercise price of $0.89. The grant date fair market value of the options is $3,459,994.

The weighted average assumptions used for the options granted in 2013 using the Black-Scholes options model are: expected cumulative volatility of 120% based on calculated annual volatility of 80%, contractual life of 3.35 years, expected option life of 2.32 years (using the simplified method) and a Risk Free Interest Rate of 0.287%. The expected dividend yield is zero.

Following is a summary of the status and used assumptions of options outstanding as of the period ended June 30, 2013:

Plan 2008	Options outstanding						Options exercisable
Range of exercise prices	Total options outstanding		Weighted average remaining contractual life (years)		Weighted average exercise price		Options exercisable		Weighted average exercise price
$ 0.60 - $ 3.39		20,077,064		4.16	$	1.63		13,075,951	$	1.52

Unvested Options					Options expected to vest
Number of options non yet vested		Forfeiture used in this reporting			Number of options expected to vest corrected by forfeiture rate		Unrecognized stock- based compensation expense		Weighted average remaining contract life of Total Options expected to vest (in years)
	6,994,446		9.317	%		6,342,764	$	3,875,450		3.85

Weighted average assumptions for 2013 grants:
Weighted Average Annual Volatility	80	%
Weighted Average Cumulative Volatility	120	%
Weighted Average Contractual Life (in years)	3.35
Weighted Average Expected Option life (in years)	2.32
Weighted Average Risk Free Interest Rate	0.287	%
Dividend yield	0.000	%

At June 30, 2013 the unrecognized expense portion of stock-based awards granted to employees under the provisions of ASC 718 and the Company’s 2008 stock award plan, was approximately $3,875,450. The future expensing takes place proportionally to the vesting associated with each stock-award, adjusted for cancellations, forfeitures and returns. The forfeiture rate has been adjusted from 10.673% at closing December 31, 2012 to 9.317% at closing June 30, 2013 and the corresponding gain has been accounted for in the second quarter of 2013.

2013 Additional Equity Plan Awards

The Compensation Committee agreed to an incentive plan for the executive officers which led to an aggregate grant towards the executive officers of 5,040,000 options. The grant date was April 5, 2013. The options were divided into three equal parts which resulted in a grant of 1,680,000 options with an exercise price of $0.91 granted under the 2008 Long-Term Incentive Plan and two conditional grants with exercise prices of $1.91 and $2.91 which will be cancelled in the event the stockholders of the Company do not approve an increase of shares issuable under the Plan from 23,000,000 to 30,000,000 in the 2013 Annual Stockholder Meeting of the Company to be held later this year. The 1,680,000 options granted under the 2008 Plan have been included in the numbers reported above “2008 Long-Term Incentive Plan” paragraph. The remaining 3,360,000 options were valued at an initial fair market value of $811,060. The current unrecognized expense portion as per June 30, 2013 for this conditional grant amounts to $506,470 and will be expensed over the remaining requisite period which is determined to end at next annual shareholders meeting in 2013.

Stock-Based Compensation Expense

Under the provisions of ASC 718 and ASC 505-50, the Company recorded for the 3-month quarter ended June 30, 2013, $2,995,049 and for the six-months period ending June 30, 2013, $4,405,959 in stock-based compensation expense for both the 2006 Non-Qualified Stock and Option Compensation Plan, the 2008 Long-Term Incentive Plan as well as the Additional Equity Plan Awards granted to the Executive Officers, together consisting of shares issued to directors and officers and employee option expensing. For the comparable period in 2012, such expense was $1,538,982 for the three month period and $3,230,728 for the six-month period ending June 30, 2012. The Company utilized the Black-Scholes valuation model for estimating the fair value of the stock-options at grant. The main reason for the increase is caused by the grant and immediate vesting and therefore expensing of bonus options granted to employees as well as the options granted to the executive officers.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Forward-Looking Statements

Any forward looking statements made herein are based on current expectations of the Company, involve a number of risks and uncertainties and should not be considered as guarantees of future performance. The factors that could cause actual results to differ materially include: interruptions or cancellation of existing contracts, inability to integrate acquisitions, impact of competitive products and pricing, product demand and market acceptance risks, the presence of competitors with greater financial resources than the Company, product development and commercialization risks, changes in governmental regulations, and changing economic conditions in developing countries and an inability to arrange additional debt or equity financing.

26

Overview

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and notes thereto and the other financial information included elsewhere in this document.

Our Business

The company has invested over $100 million in knowledge and company owned software and infrastructure that enabled the company to launch a scalable global mobile network outsourcing platform with our proprietary Software Defined Network Architecture (“Software DNA”) and a wide range of cyber security solutions through ValidSoft to counter electronic fraud.  The company now owns and operates a growing number of recurring revenue platforms with mobile and security revenues and gross margins that have improved for eight consecutive quarters.  As a consequence, the company is now approaching a cash flow positive operation and the company believes that its high margin business growth will continue to be driven by managing, securing and processing an increasing number of subscribers and financial transactions in the (mobile) cloud, providing a long lasting, profitable business model.

Through our Software DNA™ mobile platform Elephant Talk generates and processes large quantities of data from mobile networks.  Such data is processed by using propriety software to combine it into real time, useful management support information.  Data is managed into providing numerous services and create one efficient, single and real time data picture of each individual end user, including applications being used and transactions being performed.  The end result is a better customer experience driven by the big data analytics that are processed and managed on behalf of the Company’s clients and their end users. Going forward it is the Company’s expectation that this capability facilitates further strong growth from clients such as Vodafone in Europe, Zain in the Middle East, and Iusacell in Mexico.

The Company’s cloud security subsidiary ValidSoft uses a variety of raw data generated within mobile and other networks to provide world-class cyber security solutions.  Large amounts of big data are processed in real time through proprietary software platforms to support security decisions such as access authentication, application authorization and transaction verification in milliseconds.  Some of the Company’s clients include FICO/Adeptra, Banco Santander and several leading U.S., European and Australian financial institutions.

Two of the key differentiators for ValidSoft are having up to a 5 Factor flexible Authentication model and being the only cyber security software company in the world that has been granted three European Privacy Seals.

With nearly 90% of second quarter revenue generated from mobile solutions and security systems operations, it is the Company’s belief that the transformation of Elephant Talk from a telecommunications company into a software and managed services company is nearing completion.

Recent milestones for mobile product line:

· In November 2011, we executed a mass migration of SIMs to our mobile Software DNA™ platform in Spain. This migration – without having to replace the SIM cards - led to over 1.3 million customers via our Vodafone España Enabler platform in Spain.

· In January 2013, the company announced a contract with a Mobile Network Operator in Latin America. After a first call between both CEOs in June 2013, it was announced that the Mobile Network Operator contract is with Iusacell in Mexico. It is expected that the first migrations will start at the end of Q3 and that approximately 1.5 million SIMs will be hosted on our Software-DNA™ platform by the end of 2013. The platform will be able to initially host up to 10m SIMs and may ultimately host up to 20m SIMs of Iusacell and its MVNO customers.

· In April 2013, the Company acquired all of the assets of Telnicity, LLC, a U.S. MVNE/MVNO enabler company including the company’s existing customer contracts, carrier agreements, and access to telSPACE and mCASH, Telnicity’s turnkey back office infrastructure and billing systems. For this acquisition Elephant Talk issued 1 million shares of common stock.

· On July 11, 2013, the Company announced a long term agreement with Axiom Telecom LLC to host Mobile Managed Services in the Middle East.

27

· On July 16, 2013, NEO-SKY, a Spanish telecommunication service provider, announced that on June 21, 2013 it started marketing its Mobile Services in Spain. Elephant Talk is a key partner for NEO-SKY´s Mobile Services launch, providing its mobile Software DNA™ platform. NEO-SKY is the 6th MVNO in Spain powered by Elephant Talk’s network and mobile platform that is operational now, next to Lebara, Orbitel, BT, Eroski and HITS. NEO-SKY will market its Mobile Services to the niche market of corporate clients and expects to reach approximately 100,000 SIMs over the next few years within the high-end active mobile customers within the Virtual Private Network (VPN).

Recent milestones for ValidSoft product line:

· In September 2011 ValidSoft and Adeptra, now part of the FICO Corporation, formed a partnership to provide financial organizations with best-in-class fraud detection and prevention functionality, as well as total control over their customer communications.

· Following a pilot project, long-standing Adeptra client Santander, one of the ten largest international financial institutions, implemented in the UK the SIM Swap solution in 2012. This solution has been in live production for over a year now and processed successfully in excess of 9 million records.

· Following the successful deployment with Santander, Adeptra has been pressing ahead with the integration of the ValidSoft solutions into its client base and has signed in 2013 an agreement with a leading UK bank for the provision of the Validsoft SIM Swap technology and VALid-POS technology.

· ValidSoft successfully concluded the live-trials for a Self-Certification project to an EU Government in the area of citizen benefit payments. The proposed solution is based on ValidSoft’s own IP and specialized technology and incorporates ValidSoft’s Speaker Verification Platform, VALid-SVP™ to provide automation in the processing of citizen benefits with a view to achieving cost reduction and efficiencies. We now await a decision to be taken by the EU Government in terms of next steps, including potential deployment and timing.

· In 2013, the Company launched VALid-SVP™ (Speaker Verification Platform), a voice biometric technology to improve secure authentication.

· In 2013, ValidSoft filed applications for several new patents in the Card Not Present fraud prevention area and the high end security area.

In March 2013, ValidSoft was the winner of the Jury Vote of the prestigious “The Florin Transaction Services Innovation Awards”, which recognizes innovation in the transaction services industry. The Florins, established in 2010 by the EPCA Payment Summit (European Payments Consulting Association) and The Paypers.      

· In February 2013, ValidSoft’s Secure Mobile Architecture for Real-Time Transactions ( SMART™) was selected to be integral element in the comprehensive payment acceptance service solution by Spindle, Inc. (OTCBB:SPDL), a leading US-provider of mobile payments solutions.

· ValidSoft’s voice biometric technology was successfully measured and compared with the world’s leading commercial voice biometric providers and non-commercial voice biometrics research groups in late 2012. The successful evaluation was executed by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), a non-regulatory federal agency within the US Department of Commerce. 

· ValidSoft was recently the recipient of the prestigious Banking Technology award together with Santander and FICO/Adeptra for the Best Security Initiative for 2012. This award recognizes ValidSoft’s SIM Swap technology, the world’s first real-time detection and prevention application to tackle the growing problem of SIM Swapping in the banking industry.

· In 2012, ValidSoft successfully renewed the European Privacy Seal in regards to its anti-fraud technology software, VALid-POS®, which is designed to detect and prevent card related fraud, a global multibillion dollar problem for financial institutions.

28

· In 2012, ValidSoft was awarded its second European Privacy Seal for its VALid-4F™solution, an advanced security solution to provide multi-factor authentication, including voice biometrics.

· In 2012, ValidSoft was awarded its third European Privacy Seal for VALid-SIM, an advanced “context aware” solution to counter the growing problem of SIM Swap fraud. ValidSoft continues to be the only Security Software Company in the world to be certified to the EuroPriSe standards. The European Privacy Seal certifies IT products and IT-based services privacy compliance with European data protection regulations.

Application of Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Revenue Recognition and Deferred Revenue

The Company’s revenue recognition policies are in compliance with ASC 605, Revenue Recognition (“ASC 605”). Revenue is recognized only when all of the following conditions have been met: (i) there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement; (ii) delivery has occurred; (iii) the fee is fixed or determinable; and (iv) collectability of the fee is reasonably assured. The Company derives revenue from activities as a fixed-line, security and mobile services provider with its network and its own switching technology. Revenue represents amounts earned for telecommunication and security services provided to customers (net of value added tax and inter-company revenue). Revenue is recorded as deferred revenue before all of the relevant criteria for revenue recognition are satisfied. Deferred revenue represents amounts received from the customers against future sales of services since the Company recognizes revenue upon performing the services.

In managed services contracts and in other long term contracts, revenue from the operation of a customer’s system is recognized either as services are performed based on time elapsed, output produced or volume of data processed, depending on the specific contract terms of the managed services arrangement. Typically, managed services contracts are long term in duration and are not subject to seasonality. Revenue from ongoing support services is recognized as work is performed.

Stock-based Compensation

Effective January 1, 2006, we adopted the provisions of ASC 718 “Compensation-Stock Compensation”, using the prospective approach. As a result, we recognize stock-based compensation expense for only those awards that are granted subsequent to December 31, 2005 and any previously existing awards that are subject to variable accounting, including certain stock options that were exercised with notes in 2003, until the awards are exercised, forfeited, or contractually expire in accordance with the prospective method and the transition rules of ASC 718. Under ASC 718, stock-based awards granted after December 31, 2005, are recorded at fair value as of the grant date and recognized as expense over the employee’s requisite service period (the vesting period, generally three years), which we have elected to amortize on a straight-line basis.

For both the long term contractors and advisory board members the company recognizes the guidance for stock-based compensation awards to non-employees in accordance with ASC 505-50 “Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees” ("ASC 505-50"). Under ASC 505-50, the Company determines the fair value of the options or stock-based compensation awards granted as either the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.

Intangible Assets and Impairment of long Lived Assets

In accordance with ASC 350, intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortization and impairment charges. Intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over the expected useful lives of the assets, between three and ten years. Other intangible assets are reviewed for impairment in accordance with ASC 350, on an annual basis, or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. Measurement of any impairment loss for long-lived assets and identifiable intangible assets that management expects to hold and use is based on the amount of the carrying value that exceeds the fair value of the asset.

29

Goodwill Impairment

On September 15, 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-08, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other, which simplifies how an entity is required to test goodwill for impairment. This ASU would allow an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform the two-step quantitative goodwill impairment test. Under the ASU, an entity would not be required to calculate the fair value of a reporting unit unless the entity determines, based on a qualitative assessment, that it is more likely than not that its fair value is less than its carrying amount. The ASU includes a number of factors to consider in conducting the qualitative assessment. The ASU is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this accounting standard in 2011 had no material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Results of Operations

Our results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2013, consisted of the operations of Elephant Talk Communications Corp., its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Elephant Talk Limited and its subsidiaries, Elephant Talk Europe Holding B.V. and its subsidiaries, Elephant Talk Group International B.V., Elephant Talk North America, ValidSoft Ltd and its subsidiaries.

Although the vast majority of our business activities are carried out in Euros, we report our financial statements in US dollars (“USD”). The conversion of Euros and USD leads to period-to-period fluctuations in our reported USD results arising from changes in the exchange rate between the USD and the Euro. Generally, when the USD strengthens relative to the Euro, it has an unfavorable impact on our reported revenue and income and a favorable impact on our reported expenses. Conversely, when the USD weakens relative to the Euro, it produces a favorable impact on our reported revenue and income, and an unfavorable impact on our reported expenses. The above fluctuations in the USD/Euro exchange rate therefore result in currency translation effects (not to be confused with real currency exchange effects), which impact our reported USD results and may make it difficult to determine actual increases and decreases in our revenue and expenses which are attributable to our actual operating activities. Since we carry out our business activities primarily in Euros, we do not currently engage in hedging activities.

The following table shows the USD equivalent of the major currencies:

	USD equivalent
	1st quarter 2013		2nd quarter 2013
Euro	$	1.3204	$	1.3056
British Pound	$	1.5524	$	1.5356

Adjusted EBITDA

In order to provide investors additional information regarding our financial results, we are disclosing Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure. We employ Adjusted EBITDA, defined as earnings before derivative accounting, such as warrant liabilities and conversion feature expensing, depreciation and amortization, non-operating income and expenses and stock-based compensation, for several purposes, including as a measure of our operating performance. We use Adjusted EBITDA because it removes the impact of items not directly resulting from our core operations, thus allowing us to better assess whether the elements of our growth strategy are yielding the desired results. Accordingly, we believe that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information for investors and others which allows them to better understand and evaluate our operating results.

A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net loss, the most directly comparable measure under U.S. GAAP, for each of the fiscal periods indicated, is as follows:

Comparison of three months and six months ended June 30, 2013 and June 30, 2012

Revenue

Revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was $4,994,145, a decrease of $2,090,824 or 29.5%, compared to $7,084,969 for the three months ended June 30, 2012.

The landline services revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 was $526,080 and $4,301,249, respectively, a decrease of $3,775,169. The decrease was due to the company’s strategy of moving away from landline services and towards Mobile & Security Solutions.

The mobile and security solutions revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was $4,468,065, an increase of $1,684,345 from $2,783,720 for the same period 2012. The increase was mainly due to an increase of the subscriber base hosted on our platforms and additional revenue related to finalized projects and the new MNO customer Iusacell in Mexico.

Total Revenue	$	11,590,645	$	15,665,937	$	(4,075,292	)

Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was $11,590,645, a decrease of $4,075,292 or 26.0%, compared to $15,665,937 for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The decrease was due to the company’s strategy of moving away from landline towards Mobile & Security Solutions.

Cost of service

Cost of service for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was $1,465,517, a decrease of $3,719,531 or 71.7%, compared to $5,185,048 for the three months ending June 30, 2012. Cost of service for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was $5,013,794, a decrease of $7,060,471 or (58.5%), compared to $12,074,265 for the six months ended June 30, 2012. This decrease is related to the decline in landline revenue. Cost of service as a percent of the total revenue was 43.3% and 77.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Cost of service includes origination, termination, network and billing charges from telecommunications operators, out payment costs to content and information providers, network costs, data center costs, facility cost of hosting network and equipment and cost in providing resale arrangements with long distance service providers, cost of leasing transmission facilities, international gateway switches for voice, and data transmission services.

Management expects cost of service to decline further as a percentage of revenue as a greater proportion of future revenue is comprised of our mobile services and security solutions, which have a substantially lower cost of service than our traditional landline business.

Selling, general and administrative expenses

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expense for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 were $4,477,723 and $4,565,181, respectively, a decrease of $87,458 or (1.9%).

For the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, these expenses were $8,974,787 and $9,135,139, respectively, a decrease of $160,352, or (1.8%).

SG&A expenses remained relatively stable, since the increased number of personnel and long term contractors were largely capitalized expenses, following their work in building additional functionalities and modules for our mobile platform.

Non-cash compensation to officers, directors, consultants and employees

Non-cash compensation for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was $2,995,049, an increase of $1,456,067 or 94.6%, compared to $1,538,982 for the three months ended June 30, 2012. The increase is caused by the expensing of the options granted to the members of the management team and bonus options for staff.

Non-cash compensation for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 was $4,405,959 and $3,230,728, respectively. The year to date increase was of $1,175,231 or 36.4%.

Non-cash compensation is comprised of:

· The option expensing under the 2008 Long-Term Incentive Plan;

· the expensing of 2/3 of the options granted to the members of the management team which need final shareholders’ approval later this year;

32

· the expensing of the shares issued to under the 2006 Non-Qualified Stock and Option Compensation Plan to the board members and management in lieu of cash compensation at their election.

· the expensing of shares (to be issued) to the board members and management in lieu of their Q2-2013 cash compensation which they elected preceding the second quarter.

Depreciation and amortization

Depreciation and amortization expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was $1,836,231, an increase of $611,343 or 49.9%, compared to $1,224,888 for the three months ended June 30, 2012. Depreciation and amortization for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, was $3,156,219 and $2,503,357 respectively. Depreciation and amortization expenses increased by $652,862 or 26.1% in the first six months 2013 compared to the same period 2012.

Intangible assets impairment charge

The June 30, 2013 consolidated balance sheet includes: $10.0 million of intangible assets, net, and $3.4 million of goodwill. Management updated its analysis of intangible assets and long-lived assets as of June 30, 2013 and we determined that for the first six months of 2013, no asset impairment charges were necessary.

We have acquired several companies in the last few years and our current business strategy includes continuing to make additional acquisitions in the future. These acquisitions may continue to give rise to goodwill and other intangible assets which will need to be assessed for impairment from time to time.

Restatement of amounts related to three and six months ended June 30, 2013

We have restated our condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and six months period ended June 30, 2013 to adjust the valuation of warrant liabilities. In the previously issued consolidated statements for the interim period ended June 30, 2013, amounts related to warrant valuation were calculated incorrectly.

The Company determined that for the quantitative valuation of the Warrants it is more appropriate to use a Monte-Carlo Simulation model instead of a Black-Scholes valuation model as used in the Original 10-Q. Management of the Company believes that the Monte-Carlo Simulation model is a more dynamic model, which accommodates variable inputs.

This restatement results in a decrease of Change in fair value of warrant liabilities for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 of $426,450 resulting in a higher net loss for the same amount. In the Statement of Cash Flows the Net Loss is increased, and the section “Adjustments to reconcile net loss to net cash used in operating activities”, the ”Change in Fair Value of Derivative Instruments” is also increased. In addition, the effect of the restatement is an increase to our current warrant liabilities in the amount of approximately $5.3 million compared to approximately $2.4 million and a decrease on stockholders’ equity to an amount of approximately $19.0 million compared to approximately $21.9 million, and the change in the fair value increased the net loss to $7.7 million from $7.3 million in the three months ended June 30, 2013 and from $12.4 million to $12.8 million for the same months ended June 30, 2013. .

This restatement has no impact on the Company’s previously reported total cash and cash equivalents, revenue, cost and operating expenses for this period. See Note 2 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further details.

Other Income and Expenses

Interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was $21,527, a decrease of $153,229 (or 87.8%), compared to $174,756 from the same period 2012. Interest income was $55,247 and $279,918 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012. Interest income resulted from interest received on bank balances during 2013 and interest accrued on loans to related and third parties during 2012.

Interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was $208,144, a decrease of $628,436 (or 75.1%), compared to $836,580 from the same period in 2012. The decline in interest expense is mainly related to the purchase of the 8% Senior Secured Convertible Note (see Note 13). Interest expense was $431,896 and $938,847 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012.

33

Interest expense related to the debt discount on the 8% Senior Secured Convertible Note for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was $502,972, compared to $0 for the same period in 2012. Interest expense related to the debt discount was $1,061,000 and $0 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Change in fair value of the conversion feature for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was $372,059, a decrease of $854,358 (or 69.7%), compared to $232,267 from the same period in 2012. Change in fair value of the conversion feature was $232,267 and $1,230,086 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012.

Loss on Extinguishment of Debt for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was $1,938,597, compared to $0 for the same period in 2012. Loss on Extinguishment of Debt was $1,938,597and $0 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Change in fair value of warrant liabilities for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 was $346,016 compared to $0 for the same period in 2012.

Amortization of deferred financing costs for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was $2,075, compared to $0 for the same period in 2012. Amortization of deferred financing costs was $72,406 and $0 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Provision for Income Taxes

Provision for income taxes for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 $0, compared to the increase of the provision of $97,288 same period previous year.

Net Loss

Net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was $12,830,483, an increase of $1,834,385 (or 16.7%), compared to $10,996,098 from the same period 2012. The increase in loss was fully caused by the increase in the loss from other expense by $3,441,526. Loss from other expense increased substantially due to interest expense related to debt discount and conversion feature and the amortization of deferred financing costs. On the other hand, the total loss from operations decreased by $1,317,438.

Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)

We record foreign currency translation gains and losses as other comprehensive income or loss. Other comprehensive loss for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 was ($534,887) and ($1,779,477), respectively. This change is primarily attributable to the translation effect resulting from the substantial fluctuations in the US Dollars/Euro exchange rates.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. Historically, we have relied on a combination of debt and equity financings to fund our on-going cash requirements.

The Company’s operations have not yet resulted in positive cash flow and accordingly, management pursues on-going efforts in attracting financing and consequently closed a total of $13.5 million in financing in the second quarter of 2013 consisting of the following:

- registered direct offering with gross proceeds of $12 million in equity

- unregistered sale of securities with gross proceeds of $0.23 million in equity

- debt financing with a 1 year maturity of $1.3 million (which was subsequently terminated and replaced by a straight equity investment)

34

After deduction of fund raising expenses of $0.7 million, the abovementioned fundraises resulted in net proceeds of $12.8 million. Of these net proceeds $7.7 million has been used to pay two installments and fully extinguish the 2012 8% senior secured convertible debt.

This means that the Company currently has no outstanding loan arrangements other than the minor joint venture financing, the (disputed) debt under Note 9 and 12 and vendor trade financing.

April and May 2013 showed comparable operational cash burn rates (estimated by us by using adjusted EBITDA) as first quarter 2013 whereby June 2013 was above break-even which resulted in a second quarter 2013 adjusted EBITDA of minus $0.95 million compared minus $2.7 million same quarter previous year.

With the settlement of the outstanding convertible debt, the pledged assets of the Company have been released and have become available for follow on financing in order to complete the Company’s required funding efforts.

With cash and cash equivalents at June 30^th 2013 of $3 million, the positive developments of the Company and the intention of the company to close additional financing in Q3 2013 the company feels that it can carry out is operational plans for the coming 12 months. However, there can be no assurance that such additional financing will be closed in such period.

If the Company is unable to secure additional capital, it may not be able to continue operations. As of June 30, 2013, these conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Operating activities

Net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was $1,089,581 compared to $4,082,457 in the same period 2012, a decrease of $2,992,876 (or 73.3%). This decrease is primarily attributable to increased revenues from our higher margin mobile and security business which led to lower loss from operations and resulted in lower net cash used in operating activities as well as reduced use of working capital, primarily caused by financing arrangements made with vendors.

Investment activities

Net cash used in investment activities for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was $2,262,540, a decrease of $3,085,361, (or 57.7%) compared to $5,347,901 in the same period 2012. The decrease was attributable to 2012 restricted cash related to the 8% Senior Secured Convertible Note, as well as to the fact that we provided loans to related and third parties in 2012.

Financing activities

Net cash received by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was $5,120,751 compared to $7,894,129 for the six months ended June 30, 2012.

As a result of the above activities from the first six months of 2013, the Company had cash and cash equivalents balance of $2,979,673 as of June 30, 2013, a net increase in cash and cash equivalents of $1,746,405 since December 31, 2012.

Off- Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risks

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate

As the vast majority of our business activities are carried out in Euros and we report our financial statements in US dollars, fluctuations in foreign currencies impact the total amount of assets and liabilities that we report for our foreign subsidiaries upon the translation of those amounts in US dollars. Since we carry out our business activities primarily in Euros we do not currently engage in hedging activities.

We do not believe that we currently have material exposure to interest rate, foreign currency exchange rate or other relevant market risks.

Contractual Obligations

The contractual obligations are presented in the Note 20, Commitments of the financial statements. Changes in our business needs, cancellation provisions and other factors may result in actual payments differing from these estimates.

Internal Control Consideration:

Our management has determined that there was a control deficiency in our internal controls over financial reporting that constitutes a material weakness and has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective as of June 30, 2013 as a result of the material weakness identified related to the accounting and valuation of financial instruments that resulted in the restatement of our financial statements for the period ended June 30, 2013.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

In the evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures included in our Original 10-Q, the Company disclosed that under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, it concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC. As a result of the material weakness identified related to the accounting and valuation of financial instruments that resulted in the restatement of our financial statements for the period, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer subsequently concluded that the Company’s disclosures and procedures were ineffective as of June 30, 2013 and has taken the actions summarized below under “Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.”

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

The Company has determined that there was an error in its accounting for warrant liabilities in connection with the issuance of 17,425,621 shares of common stock and 7,841,537 warrants as well as 183,284 warrants issued to fundraising agents in the Offering pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the share purchase agreement as described in Note 16. The Company determined that for the quantitative valuation of the warrants it is more appropriate to use a Monte-Carlo Simulation model instead of a Black-Scholes valuation model as used in the original 10-Q. Management of the Company believes that the Monte-Carlo Simulation model is a more dynamic model, which accommodates variable inputs.

As a result of this error, the Company determined that previously issued financial information on the three and six months period ended June 30, 2013 was no longer reliable and is amending its Form 10-Q to restate its consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and six month periods ending June 30, 2013.

Management concluded that controls were not designed or operating effectively to ensure financial instruments were correctly valued and accounted for. This control failure impacted Warrant liabilities, Common stock and Accumulated deficit in the consolidated balance sheet as well as Changes in fair value of warrant liabilities in the consolidated statements of operations. Management concluded that this deficiency in the Company's internal control over financial reporting constituted a material weakness. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

36

In response to the material weakness identified related to the valuation of financial instrument for the period ended June 30, 2013, we instituted the following new internal controls in the fourth quarter of 2013 in order to remediate this weakness as follows:

• We consulted a professional valuation company to assist the Company in determining the value of warrants using a Monte-Carlo Simulation model ; and

• The Company also recently hired additional qualified personnel in the Control and Finance department. Specifically, the Company hired two individuals qualified as accountants with more than 19 years’ experience with US listed companies.

As we continue to evaluate and work to improve our internal control over financial reporting, management may determine to take additional measures to address the material weakness or determine to modify the remediation plan described above.
