The Horizon Platform delivers a turnkey mobile VoIP solution to telecommunications operators. We believe that the technology underlying SmartPacket™, is the world’s most bandwidth-efficient VoIP technology. Our VoIP platform allows voice calls over the Internet that use as little as 4kbps of data compared to around 48kbps offered by other optimized VoIP platforms, thereby enabling voice communications over limited bandwidth and congested cellular telecom data networks including 2G, 3G and 4G. The kbps rates above include bi-directional voice communication including IP overhead.
On November 30, 2012, the Company (then known as Intelligent Communication Enterprise Corporation, referred herein below as “ICE Corp.”), and One Horizon Group PLC, a public limited company incorporated in the United Kingdom (“One Horizon UK”), consummated a share exchange (the “Share Exchange”), pursuant to which ICE Corp. acquired One Horizon UK stock from its then existing shareholders in exchange for 17,853,476,138 shares of ICE Corp.’s common stock. Upon completion of this transaction, the shareholders of One Horizon UK controlled approximately 96% of the outstanding stock of ICE Corp. and One Horizon UK became a subsidiary of ICE Corp. The transaction has been accounted for as a reverse acquisition, whereby ICE Corp. is the legal acquirer and One Horizon UK is the legal acquiree and accounting acquirer. On December 27, 2012, the Company changed its name to One Horizon Group, Inc.
To record the accounting effects of the reverse acquisition, the assets and liabilities of One Horizon UK (the accounting acquirer) are recognized and measured at their precombination carrying amounts. The assets and liabilities of ICE Corp. (the accounting acquiree) are recognized and measured consistent with accounting for business combinations, including recognition of fair values, effective as of November 30, 2012, the date of the Share Exchange transaction.
ICE Corp was incorporated in Pennsylvania in 1972 as Coratomic, Inc. It changed its name to Biocontrol Technology, Inc. in 1986; BICO, Inc. in 2000; Mobiclear Inc. in 2006; and Intelligent Communication Enterprise Corporation in 2009.
Prior to the Share Exchange, ICE Corp had two operational businesses: Modizo, and Global Integrated Media Limited (GIM). The Modizo business consisted of a celebrity blogging application, while the GIM business consisted of custom publishing, advertising design, brand building, media representation, website design and development and market research programs. These operations had employees and expenses, and generated gross revenue of roughly $205,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. As the GIM and Modizo businesses did not fit within the Company’s business plan after the Share Exchange, both operational businesses were sold on December 31, 2012 for the return of 70,000 shares of the Company’s common stock held by the purchaser, which had a fair value of $420,000.
One Horizon UK, was incorporated in the United Kingdom on March 8, 2004. Prior to the Share Exchange, the consolidated financial statements of One Horizon UK for its fiscal years ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 consisted of two main business segments: (1) the Horizon Globex business segment including One Horizon UK and two of its subsidiaries, Abbey Technology and Horizon Globex; and (2) the Satcom Global business segment. However, the Satcom Global business was sold on October 25, 2012 as it became unprofitable. One the same day, Abbey Technology sold certain satellite billing software utilized in the Satcom Global business to the same purchaser. The entire purchase price for the software was paid by means of an offset against amounts owed by Abbey Technology and its affiliates to Satcom Global FZE, an entity acquired by the purchaser in connection with the purchase of the Satcom Global business.
The financial statements for the 6 months ended December 31, 2012 and the years ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 do not show any results of Satcom Global operation as that division was treated as discontinued operations.
Abbey Technology, founded in 1999 by our director and Chief Executive Officer, Brian Collins, is a software development company and licenses proprietary software solutions for the banking sector. The Horizon software platform was invented/developed in Abbey Technology by Brian Collins and Claude Dziedzic. Mr. Collins and Dziedzic have irrevocably assigned the patent for the Horizon Platform to Abbey Technology. Abbey Technology was subsequently acquired by One Horizon UK in September 2010.
Global Phone Credit Ltd, incorporated in Hong Kong on December 15, 2012, is a wholly subsidiary of the Company. One Horizon Group Pte Ltd, incorporated in Singapore on November 28, 2012, is a wholly owned subsidiary of One Horizon UK. One Horizon Hong Kong Ltd is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and was formed in 2012. One Horizon Hong Kong Ltd currently holds the Company’s 75% equity interest in Horizon Network Technology Co., Ltd., a subsidiary incorporated in China during 2013. Horizon Globex Ireland Ltd, an Irish company incorporated on August 7, 2013, is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.
(e) Reverse Stock Split, Change of Domicile and Change of Fiscal Year
On August 29, 2013, our 1-for-600 reverse stock split became effective for purposes of the securities markets. As a result of the reverse stock split, our issued and outstanding shares of common stock decreased from approximately 18.9 billion pre-reverse stock split shares to approximately 31.5 million post-reverse stock split shares.
In addition, our change of domicile from Pennsylvania to Delaware became effective on August 26, 2013. The change of domicile had also been approved by the Board of Directors and by shareholders at our Annual Meeting held on August 6, 2013.
Additional information regarding the reverse stock split and change of domicile can be found in a definitive information statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 26, 2013 and which was mailed to all shareholders of record as of July 5, 2013.
On February 13, 2013, we changed the Company's fiscal year end from June 30 to December 31. As a result of this change, the Company filed transition report on Form 10-KT on May 13, 2013 to include the financial information for the six-month transition period from July 1, 2012 to December 31, 2012 (the "Transition Period").
Developments in Fiscal Years 2014 and 2013
In February 2015, we announced the rollout of our platform in China, brand named Aishuo. This rollout entails multiple strategies including advertisements, search engine optimization, press releases, event marketing, business-traveler direct marketing, as well as other on and off-line promotions as well as leveraging the brand new One Horizon Sponsored-Call platform. Brand building and technology awareness activities will start in App Stores, Internet forums and social media outlets immediately and will run indefinitely. The Aishuo product has just been delivered to major stores in China app marketplace including Baidu’s 91.com and Baidu.com, the Tencent App store MyApp.com, 360 Qihoo store 360.cn and the every growing Xiaomi store mi.com. The Aishuo smartphone app is expected to drive multiple revenue streams from the supply of its value-added services including the rental of Chinese telephone phone numbers linked to the app, low cost local and international calling plans and sponsorship from advertisers. Subscribers can top up their app credit from major online payment services in China including AliPay (from Alibaba), Union Pay, PayPal and Tenent’s WeChat payment service.
In December 2014, Tier 1 Telecom operators, including Smartfren Telcom, Tbk in Indonesia and the Philippines, will make One Horizon software available to customers as a standard feature upon activation of devices. This will give users the ability to acquire a free virtual SIM, a unique identifier that allows for calls from ‘application to application’ or ‘application to landline/mobile phones’, by simply registering the App. Having the App on the device eliminates the step of the user needing to seek out and download the App. It is anticipated that Smartfren Telcom will target to pre-install the smartcall app in more than 4 million units of their Andromax phones in 2015.
During the three months ended September 30, 2014, our One Horizon mobile VoIP app was added by SingTel to their existing One Horizon software platform for mobile satellite services. SingTel is Asia's leading communications group with over 500 million mobile customers in 25 countries, including Bangladesh, India, Indonesia, the Philippines and Thailand.
SingTel AIO Connect is a comprehensive unified communications service for both business users and crew onboard ships. It enables instant messaging, email, Internet surfing, Voice-over-IP (VoIP) and voicemail in a single, integrated application. This service has already succeeded in bringing optimized VoIP, Messaging over IP and compressed Internet surfing to SingTel's mobile satellite subscribers connected using mobile Internet over satellite; the toughest of all mobile Internet environments. This mobile VoIP app can be downloaded from the Apple App Store and Google's Play Store
Our optimized software platform is being used by a pre-paid VoIP Smartphone application launched by Smart Communications, Inc, (“Smart”). Smart is the Philippines' leading wireless services provider with 57.3 million subscribers on its GSM network as of end-June 2013. Smart rolled out its smartphone mobile app, branded Link Plus, as a pre-paid Over The Top ("OTT") Android App that is available to download from the Google Play Store. Once Link Plus is installed on the smartphone, the user's app will receive a new Virtual SIM Filipino telephone number from Smart.
We believe that winning new business with SingTel and Smart demonstrates the acceptance of our carrier-grade technology by tier 1 operators, especially in Asia. Our current contract backlog of $65.81 million, of which only $9.65 million was recognized through September 30, 2014, which indicates great potential of our existing contracts.
During the first nine months of 2014 fiscal year, we commenced the first phase of its infrastructure rollout in six cities in China: Tianjin, Beijing, Chongqing, Changchun, Nanjing and Shijiazhuang. These initial locations will connect to the national telephone network to commence the commissioning of the VoIP service in China, brand name Aishuo. To date, we have successfully installed eight servers in support of Chinese smart phone app with interconnecgs to the ALiPay and UnionPay credit card and micro-payments services in China. The smart phone app will be able to provide various optimized internet value added services to its mobile subscribers including but not limited to voice and social media services including text, picture, video and geo-location messaging. These value added services are made possible through the creation of a "Virtual SIM" and One Horizon's proprietary communication software, an industry first. Combined with One Horizon's location aware mobile advertising services, the Aishuo branded smart phone app is expected to drive multiple revenue streams from the supply of its value-added services. The service will seek to acquire 100 million new app subscribers for the smartphone app over a three-year period and expects to achieve industry average revenues per user (ARPU) for similar social media apps.
We continued building up the Chinese core network rollout. The Global Exchange (network control center) was placed in a high availability Data Center in Shanghai and eight (8) Horizon line servers were connected to the telecommunications network. This level of rollout allowed us to issue a preliminary Android Application (App) to a group of Chinese students in Nanjing for them to evaluate the user Interface and the core features of our optimized smartphone App. Based on this feedback the research and development teams in Ireland and China made some adjustments to the Application look and feel service to accommodate this target user community.
During the first nine months of 2014, we continued our product refinement and commercial integration efforts with Smartfren Telecom, Tbk of Indonesia. The service, branded SmartCall, will be available in Google Play later in the year. This service rollout represents yet another tier 1 mobile carrier deployment in Asia. According to a study from Australian market research company Roy Morgan Research, the amount of smartphone ownerships doubled from 12% of the population to 24% in Indonesia during March 2012 to March 2013, which are approximately 60 million. Delivered by the worldwide tier 1 operators, the One Horizon Solution shows its innovation making a new virtual SIM service available to all Indonesian at home and abroad.
On May 20, 2013, we announced the launch of new social networking features in its Horizon Call app on Android, enabling service providers to further differentiate themselves from over-the-top ("OTT") players by offering innovative, integrated mobile Voice, Messaging and Advertising services over Internet Protocol ("IP").
On July 29, 2013, we announced the release of our voice over IP (VoIP) technology as a software-library for smartphone App developers. The Horizon software library allows smartphone app developers to integrate the Horizon VoIP optimizations with their current and their future apps. Apps such as on-line gaming can now carry the gamer's voice in a high-quality and reliable way especially while on wireless networks such as 3G, bringing a new level of mobility to games that benefit from voice communications. Another use for the library is in the plethora of existing VoIP apps that currently employ inefficient SIP protocols. App-based gaming developers can now upgrade their users' voice-communication experience by deploying Horizon and integrating the Horizon software library in their apps.
On September 17, 2013, we opened a new software research and development office in the Nexus Innovation Centre on the campus of the University of Limerick in Ireland employing 3 software engineers. This on campus R&D office is focused on the research of the core software architecture as opposed to the mobile application developments and a lot of engineering and academics surrounding is required. We believe we will benefit from Irish Software Foundation’s creative thinking and further advance ourselves in research of our unique mobile VoIP solutions.
On November 4, 2013, we announced that we have further expanded our software suite of products by embedding a GPS location and tracking service into our smart phone App; the service is designed to work in conjunction with its advanced mobile App advertising service.
(b) | Offering and Market Related |
On December 22, 2014, we closed a private placement of $3,500,000 (the “Closing”) in reliance upon the exemption from securities registration afforded by Regulation S (“Regulation S”) as promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “December 2014 Offering”). In connection with the Offering, we issued to an investor (the “Investor”) a convertible debenture that is convertible into 1,555,556 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), Class C warrant to purchase 388,889 shares of Common Stock and Class D warrant to purchase 388,889 shares of Common Stock. Furthermore, the Investor is eligible to receive additional consideration in the form of a performance warrant to purchase certain amount of shares of Common Stock based on our annual reported subscriber numbers, twenty four (24) months after the Closing, as is reflected in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2016 (the “Form 10-K”), if we fail to achieve 15.0 million subscribers at that time. In addition, the placement agent in the Offering received placement agent warrant, Class C warrant and Class D warrant to purchase 62,222, 15,556 and 15,556 shares of Common Stock, respectively; and a cash fee of $280,000.
Our common stock commenced trading on the NASDAQ Capital Market on July 9, 2014 under the same ticker symbol "OHGI". In July 2014, we also closed a private placement of $1,000,000 for a total of 10 units at a purchase price of $100,000 per Unit, each consisting of, (i) 17,094 shares of the Company’s Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, initially convertible into 17,094 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, and (ii) 10,000 Class B Warrants, each exercisable to purchase 1 share of Common Stock at an exercise price of $4.00 per share (the “July 2014 Offering”). The July 2014 Offering was completed in reliance upon the exemption from securities registration afforded by Regulation S.
In February 2013, we closed a Reg. S offering whereby we issued an aggregate of 806,451 shares of our common stock and a three-year warrant to purchase 403,225 shares of our Common stock at an exercise price of $7.44 per share for a total consideration of $6,000,000 ( the “February 2013 Offering”). In August 2013, we amended the offering with the investor in the offering whereby we reduced the exercise price of the warrant from $7.44 per share to $5.94 per share.
On November 10, 2014, as one of our continuous measures to improve our internal controls and procedure over the financial reporting and disclosure, our Board of Directors adopted a tracking form which was designed to track related party transactions. Upon adoption, management will review and pre-approve related party transaction and submit the tracking form to the Board for review and ratification on quarterly basis.
On July 28, 2014, we appointed Brian Collins, Vice President and the Chief Technology officer of the Company, the Chief Executive Officer of the Company. Mr. Collins is the co-inventor of the Horizon Platform, and has over 20 years’ experience in the technology sector with a background in software engineering. Mr. Collins brings experience in founding and operating technology companies along with his extensive knowledge of software engineering.
(d) | Research & Development |
During the last quarter of 2014, the expansion of the Horizon advertising platform to allow the industry first of User-Selectable-Sponsored-Calls was developed in Switzerland and Ireland R&D centers, and released on the Horizon product suite in China by the Chinese team, brand name Aishuo. A User-Selectable-Sponsored-Calls allows would-be advertisers to sponsor a call or calls to a certain amount in time or price. Further to this, in Ireland, the R&D team developed a brand new multi-ring solution of our App to be able to receive incoming calls on multiple devices at the same time. This differs from existing app technologies in that it also includes the functionality to receive the call to apps, home, office and mobile at the same time so that no call will be missed.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, we expanded our Irish software development team with the addition of a new senior software developer at our recently opened software research and development office at the Nexus Innovation Center on the campus of the University of Limerick. As part of this process, we signed an agreement with the Industrial Development Agency (IDA) Ireland whereby IDA granted certain financial assistance toward the cost of establishing and carrying a service undertaking for a software development center in Ireland in connection with our VoIP software platform. The software development center is intended to give employment of 25 persons and could allow us to more quickly increase the size of this research and development team. We believe that the further expansion of our Irish development team will allow the further advance of our unique mobile VoIP solutions.
We completed the development and continued to refine the Horizon billing system. The completion of the Horizon Billing System software add-on package allows one Horizon to deliver an additional turn-key element to our customers that will allow our customers to invoice their customers and enterprise on a postpaid monthly basis. This adds greater flexibility and reach to the Horizon platform as offered by our customers to those subscribers that wish to utilize the service on a post paid basis.
We expanded our software development capabilities for China by hiring 4 new junior software developers in our Horizon Nanjing JV, known as Horizon Network Technology Co. Ltd.. We believe that the expansion of our software development team at our Chinese joint venture will support the company’s strategy of continuing to develop our products in areas with high population density, high penetration of mobile phones, congested mobile cellular networks and high growth in the adoption of smartphones while working within the constraints of local regulations.
We continued our research and development of the Horizon product platform. The Swiss based team made significant strides towards the next generation of the product suite with particular emphasis going to the User Interface (UI) re-engineering. Further to the UI the Research and Development for version 2.0, our Irish based team made progress on the latest multi-core solution with a view to releasing this software in the third quarter of 2014. The software team in China is pushing ahead with integrating the user feedback garnered from Chinese students using our Application on the smartphone and also working on a new and exciting method for Direct Inward Dial number rental for the Chinese marketplace.

Summary Financial Information
On November 30, 2012, ICE Corp. and One Horizon UK consummated the Share Exchange, as a result of which One Horizon UK became a subsidiary of the Company, with former One Horizon UK shareholders holding approximately 96% of the issued and outstanding shares of ICE Corp. The Company’s name was subsequently changed to One Horizon Group, Inc. Prior to the Share Exchange, One Horizon UK had a June 30th fiscal year end, which, by virtue of One Horizon UK being deemed the accounting acquirer, became the fiscal year end of the Company. As a result, the Company changed its fiscal year end from June 30 to December 31 and filed transition report on Form 10-KT on May 13, 2013 to include the financial information for the six-month transition period from July 1, 2012 to December 31, 2012 (the "Transition Period").

1) | Unless otherwise noted, the Selling Stockholder became one of our shareholders pursuant to the Private Placement we closed on December 22, 2014 (the “December 2014 Private Placement”). Accordingly, prior to the Offering, the Selling Stockholder may own shares of Common Stock underlying the convertible debenture and/or Warrants received in December 2014 Private Placement (the “Securities”). However, based upon the terms of both the convertible debenture and Warrants, holders may not convert the convertible debenture and/or exercise the Warrants, if on any date, such holder would be deemed to the beneficial owner of more than 19.99%, depending upon their agreement, of the then outstanding shares of our Common Stock. Therefore, unless otherwise noted, this number represents the number of Securities the Selling Stockholder received in December 2014 Private Placement that he/she can own based upon the 19.99% ownership cap.

ITEM 8. PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
The Selling Stockholders and any of their pledgees, donees, transferees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their Shares on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the Shares are traded or quoted or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of sale, at prices related to the prevailing market price, at varying prices determined at the time of sale, or at negotiated prices. The Selling Stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when selling Shares:
| ● | ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits Investors; |
| | block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the Shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction; |
| | purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account; |
| | an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange; |
| | privately negotiated transactions; |
| | to cover short sales made after the date that this registration statement is declared effective by the SEC; |
| | broker-dealers may agree with the Selling Stockholders to sell a specified number of such Shares at a stipulated price per share; |
| | through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise; |
| | a combination of any such methods of sale; and |
| | any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law. |
The Selling Stockholders may also sell Shares under Rule 144 under the Securities Act, if all of the conditions in Rule 144(i)(2) are satisfied at the time of the proposed sale, rather than under this prospectus.
In connection with the sale of the Common Stock or interests therein, the Selling Stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the Common Stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The Selling Stockholders may also sell shares of the Common Stock short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the Common Stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The Selling Stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or the creation of one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of Shares offered by this prospectus, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).
Broker-dealers engaged by the Selling Stockholders may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the Selling Stockholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated. The Selling Stockholders do not expect these commissions and discounts to exceed what is customary in the types of transactions involved.
The Selling Stockholders may from time to time pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the Shares owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the amendment or supplement to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act of 1933 will be filed amending the list of Selling Stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as Selling Stockholders under this prospectus and the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell shares of Common Stock from time to time under the supplement or amendment to this prospectus.
The Selling Stockholders also may transfer the shares of Common Stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.
The Selling Stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the Shares may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the Shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. Discounts, concessions, commissions and similar selling expenses, if any, that can be attributed to the sale of Shares will be paid by the Selling Stockholder and/or the purchasers. Each Selling Stockholder has represented and warranted to the Company that it acquired the securities subject to this registration statement in the ordinary course of such Selling Stockholder’s business and, at the time of its purchase of such securities such Selling Stockholder had no agreements or understandings, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute any such securities.
TriPoint Global Equities, LLC (“TriPoint Global”) and Primary Capital LLC (“Primary Capital”) are registered broker dealers and FINRA member firms; and listed as Selling Stockholders in this prospectus. They served as placement agent for December 2014 Private Placement.
FINRA Rule 5110 requires FINRA member firms (unless an exemption applies) to satisfy the filing requirements of Rule 5110 in connection with the resale, on behalf of Selling Stockholders, of the securities on a principal or agency basis. NASD Notice to Members 88-101 states that in the event a Selling Stockholder intends to sell any of the shares registered for resale in this prospectus through a member of FINRA participating in a distribution of our securities, such member is responsible for insuring that a timely filing, if required, is first made with the Corporate Finance Department of FINRA and disclosing to FINRA the following:
| | it intends to take possession of the registered securities or to facilitate the transfer of such certificates; |
| | the complete details of how the selling shareholders’ shares are and will be held, including location of the particular accounts; |
| | whether the member firm or any direct or indirect affiliates thereof have entered into, will facilitate or otherwise participate in any type of payment transaction with the selling shareholders, including details regarding any such transactions; and |
| | in the event any of the securities offered by the selling shareholders are sold, transferred, assigned or hypothecated by any selling shareholder in a transaction that directly or indirectly involves a member firm of FINRA or any affiliates thereof, that prior to or at the time of said transaction the member firm will timely file all relevant documents with respect to such transaction(s) with the Corporate Finance Department of FINRA for review. |
No FINRA member firm may receive compensation in excess of that allowable under FINRA rules, including Rule 2710, in connection with the resale of the securities by the selling shareholders, which total compensation may not exceed 8%.
We have advised each Selling Stockholder that it may not use Shares registered on this registration statement to cover short sales of Common Stock made prior to the date on which this registration statement shall have been declared effective by the Commission. If a Selling Stockholder uses this prospectus for any sale of the Common Stock, it will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The Selling Stockholders will be responsible to comply with the applicable provisions of the Securities Act and Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations thereunder promulgated, including, without limitation, Regulation M, as applicable to such Selling Stockholders in connection with resales of their respective Shares under this registration statement.
We are required to pay all fees and expenses incident to the registration of the Shares, but the Company will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the Common Stock. The Company has agreed to indemnify the Selling Stockholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.
ITEM 9. DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES TO BE REGISTERED

Common Stock
As of the date hereof, 32,921,533 shares of our Common Stock are issued and outstanding. Holders of Common Stock are entitled to cast one vote for each share on all matters submitted to a vote of shareholders, including the election of directors. The holders of Common Stock are entitled to receive ratably such dividends, if any, as may be declared by the Board out of funds legally available therefore. See “Dividend Policy.” Such holders do not have any preemptive or other rights to subscribe for additional shares. All holders of Common Stock are entitled to share ratably in any assets for distribution to shareholders upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company. There are no conversion, redemption or sinking fund provisions applicable to the Common Stock. All outstanding shares of Common Stock are fully paid and nonassessable.
Preferred Stock
The Board is authorized, without further action by the shareholders, to issue, from time to time, up to 50 million shares of preferred stock in one or more classes or series. Similarly, the Board will be authorized to fix or alter the designations, powers, preferences, and the number of shares which constitute each such class or series of preferred stock. Such designations, powers or preferences may include, without limitation, dividend rights (and whether dividends are cumulative), conversion rights, if any, voting rights (including the number of votes, if any, per share), redemption rights (including sinking fund provisions, if any), and liquidation preferences of any unissued shares or wholly unissued series of preferred stock.
Series A Preferred Stock
On July 21, 2014, the Company completed a private placement of 170,940 shares of Series A Preferred Stock that also included 100,000 Class B warrants convertible into common stock on a one-to-one basis at an exercise price of $4.00 per share. The proceeds of the offering were $1,000,000 (the “July 2014 Private Placement”). As the date hereof, 170,940 shares of Series A Preferred Stock remain outstanding. Unless converted earlier, each share of Series A Preferred Stock will automatically convert on July 20, 2016, into Common Stock at a conversion price of $5.85 per share, subject to anti-dilution adjustments. Subject to certain restrictions, at any time prior to July 20, 2016, holders of Series A Preferred Stock may elect to convert all or a portion of their shares into common stock at the conversion rate.
The holders of Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to receive cumulative dividends during a period of twenty-four (24) months from and after July 21, 2014. During that period for each outstanding share of Series A Preferred Stock, dividends shall be payable quarterly in cash, at the rate of 10% per annum on or before each ninety (90) day period following July 21, 2014, with the first payment date to occur promptly following the three month period following July 21, 2014, and continuing until the end of the dividend payment period. Following the expiration of the dividend payment period, the holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to any additional dividend payment or coupon rate.
Shares of Series A Preferred Stock are redeemable, at the option of the holders commencing any time after 12 months from and after the closing at a price equal to the original purchase price plus all accrued but unpaid dividends. In the event that the Company completes a financing of $10 million or greater prior to July 20, 2016, the Series A Preferred Stock will be redeemed at a price equal to the original purchase price plus all accrued but unpaid dividends.

Item 11. Information with Respect to the Registrant
We develop and license software to telecommunications operators through our indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries Horizon Globex GmbH and Abbey Technology GmbH, each incorporated under the laws of Switzerland (“Horizon Globex” and “Abbey Technology,” respectively). Specifically, Horizon Globex and Abbey Technology develop software application platforms that optimize mobile voice, instant messaging and advertising communications over the internet, collectively, the “Horizon Platform.” Both subsidiaries do this by using proprietary software techniques that use internet bandwidth more efficiently than other technologies that are unable to provide a low-bandwidth solution. The Horizon Platform is a bandwidth-efficient Voice over Internet Protocol (“VoIP”) platform for smartphones and tablets, and also provides optimized data applications including messaging and mobile advertising. We license our software solutions to telecommunications network operators and service providers in the mobile, fixed line and satellite communications markets. We are an ISO 9001 and ISO 20000-1 certified company with assets and operations in Switzerland, the United Kingdom, China, India, Singapore and Hong Kong.
The Horizon Platform delivers a turnkey mobile VoIP solution to telecommunications operators. We believe that the technology underlying the Horizon Platform, which we call SmartPacket™, is the world’s most bandwidth-efficient VoIP technology. Our VoIP technology is able to transmit voice at 2kbps compared to around 8kbps offered by other VoIP platforms, thereby enabling voice communications over limited bandwidth and congested cellular telecom data networks including 2G, 3G and 4G.
Industry
Rapid Growth in Global Telecommunication Services Market
The global telecommunication services market continues to experience growth. This growth is mainly being driven by the growth in the number of mobile subscribers. Although the mobile VoIP (or “mVoIP”) is a small percentage of the total revenue generated by mobile telecommunications providers, Visiongain, an independent business information provider for the telecommunications industry, among others, expects this market to grow significantly as a number of commercial and technological factors alter mobile voice communications (http://www.visiongain.com/Press_Release/475/The-Voice-Over-Internet-Protocol-(VoIP)-Market-2013-2018). These factors include innovative smartphone designs with improved user interfaces and acoustics, increased acceptance of VoIP and overall increases in broadband penetration. According to Visiongain. In 2013, “VoIP is poised for explosive growth, underpinned by the widespread adoption of integrated social media based VoIP solutions”; like those provided by One Horizon. Visiongain further advises that “it is very important for Operators to embrace VoIP and focus on building viable business models that are mutually beneficial to the VoIP service provider and telecom operator”. We are precisely targeting this operator market with our turnkey mobile VoIP solution branded for each of our operator customers.
The growth of smartphones and tablets is a key driver for us in increasing the number of customers and revenue. In 2013, the number of smartphones shipped exceeded one billion according to International Data Corporation (https://www.idc.com/getdoc.jsp?containerId=prUS24645514), a provider of market intelligence in the industry. This represents an increase of 38.4% on the number of smartphones shipped in 2012. Smartphones consume 24X more data than the “feature phones” that they replace due to higher usage of data, VoIP, and video services, which creates a significant strain on existing carrier infrastructure and creating potentially severe network congestion issues particularly in high density and high population markets.
The increase in mobile data consumption has been driven by the availability of cheap GSM (global system for mobile communications) data and the massive uptake of smartphones and tablets, devices on which our mobile application, Horizon Call, was designed to run.
In its paper titled “Cisco Visual Networking Index: Global Mobile Data Traffic Forecast Update, 2013–2018” Cisco projects global mobile data traffic to increase 13-fold between 2013 and 2018 (source link:http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/solutions/collateral/service-provider/visual-networking-index-vni/white_paper_c11-520862.html). According to Cisco, at the end of 2012, the number of mobile-connected devices exceeded the number of people on earth, and by 2017, it is expected that there will be 1.4 mobile devices per capita. According to Cisco, in 2017, it is expected that 4G will account for ten percent of connections, but 45 percent of total traffic. Horizon Call addresses the need for efficient data on the next generation networks while tackling the need for efficient data usage on legacy networks in the world’s most populous countries.
Our Technology
SmartPacket™, our technology underlying the Horizon Platform, enables greater bandwidth efficiency by reducing IP overhead and optimizing packet flow, delivery and playback. It is also extremely efficient in the way it handles silence. Traditional VoIP calls send the same amount of data in both directions, regardless of whether someone is speaking or not. SmartPacket™ detects silence and sends “heartbeats” so that it does not sound like the line has been dropped. These heartbeats get sent at only 0.25kbps compared to approximately 24kbps on other VoIP platforms. In addition to low-bandwidth VoIP, SmartPacket™ can also be utilized to enhance data applications for personal computers (i.e., email, web browsing and instant messaging) which give the user total visibility and control over how much data they consume on pay-as-you-use internet connections such as satellite data connections.
| | TALKING | | LISTENING |
Other VoIP (G.729) | | 24 kbps | | 24 kbps |
| | 4.1 kbps | | |
Horizon * | | 5.4 kbps | | 0.25 kbps |
| | 7.4 kbps | | |
*These default settings are adjustable based on customers’ needs.
The Horizon Platform has been developed entirely in-house and is fully compatible with digital telecommunications standards. It is capable of interconnecting any phone system over IP – on mobile, fixed and satellite networks.
The Horizon Platform was initially developed for the mobile satellite market by Abbey Technology to make the best use of the limited wireless bandwidth available, to minimize the amount of data consumed and ultimately to reduce costs for the end-user.
We further developed the Horizon Platform for the broader telecommunications market, while focusing on the mobile data sector. This sector also benefits from our optimized mobile VoIP software that allows voice calls over new and legacy cellular telecom data networks. With the explosive growth in smartphone sales and increased usage of mobile data services, mobile operators face the challenge of dealing with increasingly congested networks, more dropped calls and rising levels of churn. Since the wireless spectrum is a finite resource it is not always possible, or can be cost prohibitive, to increase network capacity. For these reasons, we believe that the demand for solutions which optimize the use of IP bandwidth will inevitably increase.
Our Strategy
We have developed a mobile application, “Horizon Call,” that enables highly bandwidth-efficient VoIP calls over a smartphone using a 2G/EDGE, 3G, 4G/LTE, WiFi or WiMax connection. Our Horizon Call application is currently available for the iPhone and for Android handsets.
Unlike the majority of mobile VoIP applications, Horizon Call creates a business-to-business solution for mobile operators, who will be our customers. Telecommunications operators are able to license, brand and deploy on a “white-labeled” basis that they can optimize to their business strategies. The operators decide how to integrate our application within their portfolio, how to offer it commercially and can customize it according to their own branding. Our solution helps them to manage rising traffic volumes while also combating the competitive threat to their voice telephony revenues from other mobile VoIP applications by giving its mobile data customers a more efficient mobile VoIP solution that adds value to their mobile data network.
We are positioning ourselves as an operator-enabler by licensing our technology to the operator in a manner that can be fully customized to the needs of their subscribers. As shown below, operators are able to offer our platform to deliver branded smartphone applications to their existing customers to help reduce lost Voice/Text revenue and minimize customer churn.
By offering Horizon Call to their existing customer base, our customers can offer innovative data-based voice and data services that differentiate themselves from the existing Over The Top (“OTT”) data applications running on their networks. OTT refers to voice and messaging services that are delivered by a third party to an end user’s smartphone, leaving the mobile network provider responsible only for transporting internet data packets and not the value-added content. The Horizon Call voice services allow the mobile operators’ customers to make VoIP calls under the mobile operators’ call plans, thereby allowing the mobile operator to capture the value-added content, including voice calls, text messaging, voice messaging, group messaging, multimedia messaging, and advertising, that would have otherwise gone to the providers of other OTT services.
Horizon Call runs on both smartphone and tablet devices and, as networks become more congested, software services such as Horizon Call become ever more relevant. We believe that although more network capacity will eventually come on stream with 4G/LTE, it, like all other highways, will quickly become congested and this is why we believe that Horizon Call is ideally placed to add value to mobile data networks.
Incumbent mobile operators are suffering a reduction in revenue per user due to the OTT software services on mobile devices. These OTT applications, such as Skype, Viber, WeChat, and WhatsApp, can negatively impact mobile operators’ traditional revenue streams of voice and SMS (short message service). As shown below, the Horizon Platform positions the Company to enable mobile operators to operate their own OTT solution branded in their image allowing use on all mobile data networks.
In addition to delivering new data services to their existing customers, the mobile operators can offer their brand of Horizon Call on any other operators’ handsets. Because the Horizon Call application can be installed on the smartphone from the Internet, the potential customer base for the operators’ data application surpasses the customer base that they can reach through traditional mobile phone SIM card distribution. We believe that this service innovation, coupled with the fact that the Horizon Call application can also use existing mobile operator pre-paid credit redemption and distribution services, presents a very compelling service offering from the operator compared to OTT services.
We believe that emerging markets represent a key opportunity for Horizon Call because these are significant markets with high population densities, high penetration of mobile phones, congested mobile cellular networks and high growth in the adoption of smartphones. Smartphone sales grew 36% in the fourth quarter of 2013 and accounted for 57.6% of overall mobile phone sales in the fourth quarter, up from 44 percent year over year. This increasing contribution of smartphones was led by growth in Latin America, the Middle East and Africa, Asia/Pacific and Eastern Europe, where smartphone sales grew by more than 50 percent in the fourth quarter of 2013. With a 166.8% increase in the fourth quarter of 2013, India exhibited the highest smartphone sales growth among the countries tracked by Gartner, and Latin America saw the strongest growth among all regions (96.1%) in the fourth quarter. China also contributed significantly to worldwide smartphone sales as sales grew 86.3% in 2013. (http://www.gartner.com/newsroom/id/2665715). These factors will put increased pressure on mobile operators to manage their network availability.
In this context, where necessary, we are forming a number of joint ventures with local partners in regions of various emerging markets to seize upon this opportunity.
Through one subsidiary, One Horizon Hong Kong, we invested $1.5 million for a 75% equity stake in our joint venture, Horizon Network Technology Co., Ltd, while our partner, ZTE Corporation, the second largest mobile handset manufacturer in the world and the fourth largest telecommunications equipment supplier in the world, holds a 25% equity stake in the joint venture. The Company is not a guarantor of any debt related to this joint venture.
During the fiscal year 2014, we commenced the first phase of its infrastructure rollout in six cities in China: Tianjin, Beijing, Chongqing, Changchun, Nanjing and Shijiazhuang. These initial locations will connect to the national telephone network to commence the commissioning of the VoIP service in China, brand name Aishuo. To date, we have successfully installed eight servers in support of Chinese smart phone app with interconnecgs to the ALiPay and UnionPay credit card and micro-payments services in China. The smart phone app will be able to provide various optimized internet value added services to its mobile subscribers including but not limited to voice and social media services including text, picture, video and geo-location messaging. These value added services are made possible through the creation of a "Virtual SIM" and One Horizon's proprietary communication software, an industry first. Combined with One Horizon's location aware mobile advertising services, the Aishuo branded smart phone app is expected to drive multiple revenue streams from the supply of its value-added services. The service will seek to acquire 100 million new app subscribers for the smartphone app over a three-year period and expects to achieve industry average revenues per user (ARPU) for similar social media apps.
Marketing
Our marketing objective is to become a broadly adopted solution in the regions of the world with large concentrations of smartphone users and high network congestion. We aim at becoming the preferred solution for carriers who wish to deploy branded VoIP solutions that enable them to minimize revenue erosion, reduce churn, increase the effective capacity of their network infrastructure and improve user experience. We employ an integrated multi-channel approach to marketing, whereby we evaluate and focus our efforts on selling through Tier 1 and Tier 2 telecommunications companies to enable them to provide the Horizon Platform to their customers. We routinely evaluate our marketing efforts and try to reallocate budgets to identify more effective media mixes.
We conduct marketing research to gain consumer insights into brand, product, and service performance, and utilize those findings to improve our messaging and media plans. Market research is also leveraged in the areas of testing, retention marketing, and product marketing to ensure we bring compelling products and services to market.
Sales
Direct Sales. Our primary sales channel for the products and services of Horizon Platform is the sale of Horizon Platforms to Tier 1 and Tier 2 telecommunications companies to enable them to provide the product and services to their customers. We continue our efforts to develop new customers in Europe, the Middle East, Asia, Africa, South America, and, in the near future, North America.
Joint Ventures. In addition to our direct sales channel, we also offer increased sales through our joint venture channel. In this context, as mentioned above, we are working towards forming a number of joint ventures in areas where regulatory issues require local representation.
Target Markets. The markets for our primary and joint venture channels will have high population density, high penetration of mobile phones, congested mobile cellular networks and high growth in the adoption of smartphones.
Competition
The Company’s direct competitors for its technology primarily consist of systems integrators that combine various elements of SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) dialers and media gateways. Other dial-back solutions exist but they are not IP-based. Because SIP dialers and media gateways currently are unable to provide a low bandwidth solution, they do not currently compete with the Company’s technology in those markets in which their high bandwidth needs are unsupported by the existing cellular networks. They do, however, compete in those markets where the cellular networks are accessible by those SIP dialers and gateways.
The Company licenses the Horizon Platform to mobile operators, who in turn may offer the application to their end-user subscribers. The Company’s principal competitors for the mobile operators’ end-users are Skype, Viber, WeChat, and WhatsApp. Having a mobile operator’s subscriber opt to use the operator’s (branded) Horizon Call service instead of existing OTT services means that the mobile operator will gain market share of some of the OTT voice and messaging traffic. We are unaware of any other companies that seek to license VoIP technology directly to mobile operators.
One of the Company’s key competitive advantages is that it is not a threat to mobile operators. Rather, the Company’s Horizon Platform is a tool that can be used by mobile operators to compete against the OTT provider’s applications that are running on their networks. Through the Horizon Platform, mobile operators are able to compete directly with OTT services that, by their design, divert voice and messaging services away from mobile operators. The solution is delivered completely and is easy to install and operate. This means that a mobile operator has a turnkey mobile voice and messaging solution to deploy to its customer (i.e., the end-user).
The turnkey Horizon software platform and the Horizon SmartPacket™ technology give us a competitive advantage by managing credit, routing, rating, security, performance, billing and monitoring. Horizon SmartPacket™ is the world’s lowest bandwidth voice compression and transmission protocol and is 100% developed and owned by the Company. Though other software companies can offer part of this solution space, we believe none offers it in such a complete and integrated fashion as we do. We believe it will take a substantial number of years to copy/replicate the Horizon Platform in its entirety, by which time we believe the Horizon Platform will have improved and further distanced itself from potential competition.
Intellectual Property
Our strategy with respect to our intellectual property is to patent our core software concepts wherever possible. The Company’s current software patent application, which is pending in Switzerland, reflects this strategy and protects the Horizon Platform and the central processing service of the Horizon Platform.
The Company endeavors to protect its internally developed systems and technologies. All of our software is developed “in-house,” and then licensed to our customers. We take steps, including by contracts, to ensure that any changes, modifications or additions to the Horizon Platform requested by our customers remain the sole intellectual property of the Company.
Research and Development and Software Products
The Company has spent approximately $1.1 million on research and development in the fiscal year 2014, all of which was capitalized as software development costs.
During the last quarter of 2014, our Switzerland and Ireland R&D centers developed expansion of Horizon advertising platform to allow the industry first of User-Selectable-Sponsored-Calls and it was released on the Horizon product suite in China by the Chinese team, brand name Aishuo Aishuo smartphone app is combined with One Horizon's exciting new Sponsored-Call mobile advertising service where a user is presented with a list of companies that will sponsor their calls in consideration for listening to their in-app advertisement, an industry first for China. Aishuo app is expected to drive multiple revenue streams from the supply of its value-added services including the rental of Chinese telephone phone numbers linked to the app, low cost local and international calling plans and sponsorship from advertisers. Subscribers can top up their app credit from major online payment services in China including AliPay (from Alibaba), Union Pay, PayPal and Tenent’s WeChat payment service.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, we expanded our Irish software development team with the addition of a new senior software developer at our recently opened software research and development office at the Nexus Innovation Center on the campus of the University of Limerick. As part of this process, we signed an agreement with the Industrial Development Agency (IDA) Ireland whereby IDA granted certain financial assistance toward the cost of establishing and carrying a service undertaking for a software development center in Ireland in connection with our VoIP software platform. The software development center is intended to give employment of 25 persons and could allow us to more quickly increase the size of this research and development team. We believe that the further expansion of our Irish development team will allow the further advance of our unique mobile VoIP solutions.
We completed the development and continued to refine the Horizon billing system. The completion of the Horizon Billing System software add-on package allows one Horizon to deliver an additional turn-key element to our customers that will allow our customers to invoice their customers and enterprise on a postpaid monthly basis. This adds greater flexibility and reach to the Horizon platform as offered by our customers to those subscribers that wish to utilize the service on a post paid basis.
We expanded our software development capabilities for China by hiring 4 new junior software developers in our Horizon Nanjing JV, known as Horizon Network Technology Co. Ltd.. We believe that the expansion of our software development team at our Chinese joint venture will support the company’s strategy of continuing to develop our products in areas with high population density, high penetration of mobile phones, congested mobile cellular networks and high growth in the adoption of smartphones while working within the constraints of local regulations.
We continued our research and development of the Horizon product platform. The Swiss based team made significant strides towards the next generation of the product suite with particular emphasis going to the User Interface (UI) re-engineering. Further to the UI the Research and Development for version 2.0, our Irish based team made progress on the latest multi-core solution with a view to releasing this software in the third quarter of 2014. The software team in China is pushing ahead with integrating the user feedback garnered from Chinese students using our Application on the smartphone and also working on a new and exciting method for Direct Inward Dial number rental for the Chinese marketplace.

In July 2014 Offering, we issued 170,940 shares of Series A Preferred Stock convertible into 170,940 shares of Common Stock, 100,000 Class B Warrants to purchase up to 100,000 shares of Common Stock at a price of $4.00 per share; and we also issued 25,000 shares of Common Stock to the placement agent. In connection with and as a consideration to the closing of the July 2014 Offering, we reduced the exercise price of Class A warrants issued in the February 2013 Offering from $5.94 to $4.25 per share and increased the amount of shares issuable upon exercise of Class A warrants from 403,225 to 1,209,675. In December 2014 Offering, we issued a convertible debenture that is convertible into 1,555,556 shares of Common Stock, Class C warrant to purchase 388,889 shares of Common Stock and Class D warrant to purchase 388,889 shares of Common Stock. In addition, the placement agent in the December 2014 Offering received placement agent warrant, Class C warrant and Class D warrant to purchase 62,222, 15,556 and 15,556 shares of Common Stock.
Effective August 11, 1993, the SEC adopted Rule 15g-9, which established the definition of a "penny stock," for purposes relevant to the Company, as any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require: (i) that a broker or dealer approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks; and (ii) that the broker or dealer receive from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and quantity of the penny stock to be purchased. In order to approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must (i) obtain financial information and investment experience and objectives of the person; and (ii) make a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny stocks are suitable for that person and that person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stocks. The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prepared by the Commission relating to the penny stock market, which, in highlight form, (i) sets forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination; and (ii) states that the broker or dealer received a signed, written agreement from the investor prior to the transaction. Disclosure also has to be made about the risks of investing in penny stock in both public offerings and in secondary trading, and about commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and the rights and remedies available to an investor in cases of fraud in penny stock transactions. Finally, monthly statements have to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks
Dividend Policy
The payment of cash dividends by us is within the discretion of our board of directors and depends in part upon our earnings levels, capital requirements, financial condition, any restrictive loan covenants, and other factors our board considers relevant. Since the share exchange in 2012, we have not declared or paid any dividends on our common stock and we do not anticipate paying such dividends in the foreseeable future. We intend to retain earnings, if any, to finance our operations and expansion.

The following table shows the aggregate amount of securities authorized for issuance under all equity compensation plans as of December 31, 2013:
| | Number of securities to be issued upon exercise of outstanding options, warrants and rights (a) | | | Weighted-average exercise price of outstanding options, warrants and rights (b) | | | Number of securities remaining available for future issuance under equity compensation plans (excluding securities reflected in column (a)) (c) | |
Equity compensation plans approved by security holders | | | 0 | | | | 0 | | | | 0 | |

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
September 30, 2014
Note 1. Description of Business, Organization and Principles of Consolidation
Description of Business
One Horizon Group, Inc., (the “Company” or “Horizon”) develops proprietary software primarily in the Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) and bandwidth optimization markets (“Horizon Globex”) and provides it under perpetual license arrangements (“Master License”) throughout the world. The Company sells related user licenses and software maintenance services as well.
Interim Period Financial Statements
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the Securities and Exchange Commission’s instructions. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The results of operations reflect interim adjustments, all of which are of a normal recurring nature and, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for such interim period. The results reported in these interim consolidated financial statements should not be regarded as necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the entire year. Certain information and note disclosure normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and regulations. These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 15, 2014.
Principles of Consolidation
The September 30, 2014 and 2013 consolidated financial statements include the accounts of One Horizon Group, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries OHG, Horizon Globex GmbH, Abbey Technology GmbH, One Horizon Hong Kong Limited, Horizon Globex Ireland Limited, Global Phone Credit Limited, One Horizon Group Pte., Limited and Ishuo Network Information Co., Ltd. together with Horizon Network Technology Co. Ltd. which is a 75% owned subsidiary.
All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Accounting and Presentation
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
The reporting currency of the Company is the United States dollar. Assets and liabilities of operations other than those denominated in U.S. dollars, primarily in Switzerland, the United Kingdom and China, are translated into United States dollars at the rate of exchange at the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at the average rate of exchange throughout the period. Gains or losses from these translations are reported as a separate component of other comprehensive income (loss) until all or a part of the investment in the subsidiaries is sold or liquidated. The translation adjustments do not recognize the effect of income tax because the Company expects to reinvest the amounts indefinitely in operations.
Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange-rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in general and administrative expenses.
Cash
Cash and cash equivalents include bank demand deposit accounts and highly liquid short term investments with maturities of three months or less when purchased. Cash consists of checking accounts held at financial institutions in the United Kingdom, Switzerland, Ireland, Singapore, Hong Kong and China which, at times, balances may exceed insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses related to these balances, and management believes the credit risk to be minimal.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable result primarily from sale of software and licenses to customers and are recorded at their principal amounts. Receivables are considered past due once they exceed the terms of the sales transaction. When necessary, the Company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts that is based on a review of outstanding receivables, historical collection information, and current economic conditions. There was an allowance of $342,000 and $212,000 for doubtful accounts at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. Receivables are generally unsecured. Account balances are charged off against the allowance when the Company determines it is probable the receivable will not be recovered. The Company does not have off-balance sheet credit exposure related to its customers. As at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, two customers accounted for 22% and two customers accounted for 26%, respectively, of the accounts receivable balance.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment is primarily comprised of leasehold property improvements, motor vehicles and equipment that are recorded at cost and depreciated or amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives as follows: motor vehicles – 5 years, equipment – between 3 and 5 years, leasehold property improvements, over the lesser of the estimated remaining useful life of the asset or the remaining term of the lease.
Repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred. Expenditures that substantially increase the useful lives of existing assets are capitalized.
Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined as the exchange price that will be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value should maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. To measure fair value, the Company uses the following fair value hierarchy based on three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered to be observable and the third unobservable:
Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 – Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs are supported by little or no market activity and are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets include software development costs and customer lists and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of five years for customer lists and ten years for software development. The Company periodically evaluates whether changes have occurred that would require revision of the remaining estimated useful life. The Company performs periodic reviews of its capitalized intangible assets to determine if the assets have continuing value to the Company.
The Company expenses software development costs as incurred until technological feasibility has been established, at which time those costs are capitalized until the product is available for general release to customers. Judgement is required in determining when technological feasibility of a product is established. The Company has determined that after technological feasibility for software products is reached, the Company continues to address all high risk development issues through coding and testing prior to the release of the products to customers. The amortization of these costs is included in cost of revenue over the estimated life of the products.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 software development costs of $874,000 and $831,000, respectively, have been capitalized.
Impairment of Other Long-Lived Assets
The Company evaluates the recoverability of its property and equipment and other long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate impairment may have occurred. An impairment loss is recognized when the net book value of such assets exceeds the estimated future undiscounted cash flows attributed to the assets or the business to which the assets relate. Impairment losses, if any, are measured as the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the assets. During the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 the Company identified no impairment losses related to the Company’s long-lived assets.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue when it is realized or realizable and earned. The Company establishes persuasive evidence of a sales arrangement for each type of revenue transaction based on a signed contract with the customer and that delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, price is fixed and determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured.
● | Software and licenses – revenue from sales of perpetual licenses to customers when payments are fixed is recognized at the inception of the arrangement, unless the payment term exceeds one year and then only if the presumption that the license fee is not fixed or determinable can be overcome, presuming all other relevant revenue recognition criteria are met. If the presumption cannot be overcome, revenue is recognized as payment from the customer becomes due. Revenue from sales of perpetual licenses are payable over a period exceeding a year, and those payments are variable based upon customer usage are recognized as payments from customers become due. |
● | Revenues for user licenses purchased by customers are recognized when the user license is delivered. |
● | Revenues for maintenance services are recognized over the period of delivery of the services. |
We enter into arrangements in which a customer purchases a combination of software licenses, maintenance services and post-contract customer support (“PCS”). As a result, judgment is sometimes required to determine the appropriate accounting, including how the price should be allocated among the deliverable elements if there are multiple elements. PCS may include rights to upgrades, when and if available, support, updates and enhancements. When vendor specific objective evidence (“VSOE”) of fair value exists for all elements in a multiple element arrangement, revenue is allocated to each element based on the relative fair value of each of the elements. VSOE of fair value is established by the price charged when the same element is sold separately. Accordingly, the judgments involved in assessing the fair values of various elements of an agreement can impact the recognition of revenue in each period. Changes in the allocation of the sales price between deliverables might impact the timing of revenue recognition, but would not change the total revenue recognized on the contract. When elements such as software and services are contained in a single arrangement, or in related arrangements with the same customer, we allocate revenue to each element based on its relative fair value, provided that such element meets the criteria for treatment as a separate unit of accounting. In the absence of fair value for a delivered element, revenue is first allocated to the fair value of the undelivered elements and then allocated to the residual delivered elements. In the absence of fair value for an undelivered element, the arrangement is accounted for as a single unit of accounting, resulting in a delay of revenue recognition for the delivered elements until the undelivered elements are fulfilled. No sales arrangements to date include undelivered elements for which VSOE does not exist.
For purposes of revenue recognition for perpetual licenses, the Company considers payment terms exceeding one year as a presumption that the fee in the transaction is not fixed and determinable. This presumption however, may be overcome if persuasive evidence demonstrates that the Company has a business practice of extending payment terms and has been successful in collecting under the original terms, without providing any concessions. In doing so, the Company considers if the arrangement is sufficiently similar to historical arrangements in terms of similar customers and products is assessing whether there is evidence of a history of successful collection.
In order to determine if the company’s historical experience is based on sufficiently similar arrangements, the Company considers the various factors including the types of customers and products, product life cycle, elements included in the arrangement, length of payment terms and economics of license arrangement.
If the presumption cannot be overcome due to a lack of such evidence, revenue is recognized as payments become due, assuming all other revenue recognition criteria has been met.
Leases
Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases.
Assets held under finance leases are recognized as assets of the Company at their fair value or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments, each determined at the inception of the lease. The corresponding liability to the lessor is included in the balance sheet as finance lease obligation. Lease payments are apportioned between finance charges and reduction of the lease obligation so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Finance charges are charged directly against income.
Rentals payable under operating leases are charged to income on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant lease.
Benefits received and receivable as an incentive to enter into an operating lease are also spread on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Advertising Expenses
It is the Company’s policy to expense advertising costs as incurred. No advertising costs were incurred during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013.
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development expenses include all direct costs, primarily salaries for Company personnel and outside consultants, related to the development of new products, significant enhancements to existing products, and the portion of costs of development of internal-use software required to be expensed. Research and development costs are charged to operations as incurred with the exception of those software development costs that may qualify for capitalization. The Company incurred no research and development costs in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013.
Income Taxes
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on temporary differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, operating loss, and tax credit carryforwards, and are measured using the enacted income tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Realization of certain deferred income tax assets is dependent upon generating sufficient taxable income in the appropriate jurisdiction. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce deferred income tax assets to amounts that are more likely than not to be realized. The initial recording and any subsequent changes to valuation allowances are based on a number of factors (positive and negative evidence). The Company considers its actual historical results to have a stronger weight than other, more subjective, indicators when considering whether to establish or reduce a valuation allowance.
The Company continually evaluates its uncertain income tax positions and may record a liability for any unrecognized tax benefits resulting from uncertain income tax positions taken or expected to be taken in an income tax return. Estimated interest and penalties are recorded as a component of interest expense and other expense, respectively.
Because tax laws are complex and subject to different interpretations, significant judgment is required. As a result, the Company makes certain estimates and assumptions in: (1) calculating its income tax expense, deferred tax assets, and deferred tax liabilities; (2) determining any valuation allowance recorded against deferred tax assets; and (3) evaluating the amount of unrecognized tax benefits, as well as the interest and penalties related to such uncertain tax positions. The Company’s estimates and assumptions may differ significantly from tax benefits ultimately realized.
Net Loss per Share
For the quarter ended September 30, 2013, there were no potential issuable shares included in the diluted earnings per share calculation as the conversion price of those instruments was all out-of-the-money. For the nine months period ended September 30, 2013, potential issuable shares were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share under the treasury stock method because their effect would be anti-dilutive due to net losses incurred. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, options, warrants and convertible debt were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because their effect would be anti-dilutive due to net losses incurred under the treasury stock method.
Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)
Other comprehensive income (loss), as defined, includes net income, foreign currency translation adjustment, and all changes in equity (net assets) during a period from non-owner sources. To date, the Company has not had any significant transactions that are required to be reported in other comprehensive income (loss), except for foreign currency translation adjustments.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the fiscal year. The Company makes estimates for, among other items, useful lives for depreciation and amortization, determination of future cash flows associated with impairment testing for long-lived assets, determination of the fair value of stock options and warrants, determining fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations, valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, allowances for doubtful accounts, and potential income tax assessments and other contingencies. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience, current conditions, and other assumptions that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions.
Financial Instruments
The Company has the following financial instruments: cash, amounts due to related parties and long-term debt. The carrying value of these financial instruments approximates their fair value due to their liquidity or their short-term nature valued consistent with the use of level 2 inputs. The fair value of amounts due to related parties is not determinable.
Share-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for stock-based awards at fair value on date of grant and recognition of compensation over the service period for awards expected to vest. The fair value of stock options is determined using the Black-Scholes valuation model, which is consistent with the Company’s valuation techniques previously utilized for options in footnote disclosures.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2014-09 – Revenue From Contracts with Customers, which will supersede nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP. The core principle of this ASU is that an entity should recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This ASU also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. This ASU will be effective for us in our first quarter of 2018. Early adoption is not permitted. The ASU allows for either full retrospective or modified retrospective adoption. The Company are evaluating the transaction method that will be elected and the potential effects of the adoption of this ASU on its financial statements.
Note 3. China Operations
During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company established a subsidiary in China, Horizon Network Technology Co. Ltd. (“HNT”). The establishment of HNT is part of the Company’s strategic plan to expand the application of mobile software and related marketing efforts into emerging markets. The Company contributed $1.5 million for a 75% ownership interest in HNT. The remaining 25% ownership interest in HNT was acquired by non-related parties through the transfer of noncash assets with a fair value of $500,000.
The results of operations, assets, liabilities and cash flows of HNT have been consolidated in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements as the Company owns a controlling interest. The ownership interests in HNT held by parties other than the Company are presented separately from the Company’s equity on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The amount of consolidated net loss attributable to the Company and the non-controlling interest are both presented on the face of the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders
One Horizon Group, Inc.
London, United Kingdom
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of One Horizon Group, Inc. ("the Company") as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, shareholders' equity, and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2013, and for the period from July 1, 2012 to December 31, 2012. We have also audited the consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive loss, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year ended June 30, 2012. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company has determined that it is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of One Horizon Group, Inc. as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for year ended 2013, for period from July 1, 2012 to December 31, 2012, and for the year ended June 30, 2012, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
As discussed in Note 2, the accompanying consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2012, and for the six months then ended, and for the year ended June 30, 2012, have been restated.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2013
Note 1. Description of Business, Organization and Principles of Consolidation
Description of Business
One Horizon Group, Inc., (the “Company” or “Horizon”) develops proprietary software primarily in the Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) and bandwidth optimization markets (“Horizon Globex”) and provides it under perpetual license arrangements (“Master License”) throughout the world. The Company sells related user licenses and software maintenance services as well.
Organization
On November 30, 2012, the predecessor company “ICE” acquired all of the stock of One Horizon Group plc (“OHG”), a company incorporated in the United Kingdom through the issuance of 29,755,794 shares of common stock of the Company. Upon completion of this transaction the former shareholders of OHG controlled approximately 96% of the outstanding stock of the Company and OHG was deemed the acquiring entity The share exchange has been accounted for as a reverse acquisition. The historical combined financial statements of OHG form the consolidated financial statements presented. For accounting purposes ICE was considered to have been acquired as of November 30, 2012.
The consolidated financial statements reflect the deemed acquisition of ICE by OHG and the recognition of the 1,160,051 shares of common stock, with a fair value of $170,000, at November 30, 2012.
On December 31, 2012 the Company sold the operations of Global Integrated Media Limited and Modizo for the return of 70,000 shares of common stock with a fair value of $420,000. These companies were subsidiaries and divisions of ICE.
On August 6, 2013, the Company's shareholders approved the reverse split of the Company's common stock at a ratio of 1-for-600. The reverse stock split proportionately reduced the number of all issued and outstanding common shares and adjusted the number of shares underlying outstanding stock options and warrants.
On August 26, 2013 the Company continued its corporate entity from Pennsylvania to Delaware. There was no change in authorized and issued share capital as all shareholders transferred intact.
Principles of Consolidation and Combination
The December 31, 2013 consolidated financial statements include the accounts of One Horizon Group, Inc., its wholly owned subsidiaries OHG, Abbey Technology GmbH, Horizon Globex GmbH, Global Phone Credit Ltd., Horizon Globex Ireland Ltd., One Horizon Hong Kong Ltd., and Global Phone Credit together with Ishuo Network Information Co., Ltd which is controlled by One Horizon Group, Inc. The consolidated financial statements also include the accounts of One Horizon Hong Kong Ltd.’s 75% owned subsidiary, Horizon Network Technology Co., Ltd, which is both controlled and managed by One Horizon Hong Kong Ltd.
The December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2012 consolidated financial statements include the accounts of One Horizon Group, Inc. and its subsidiaries, Horizon Globex GmbH (“HGG”) and Abbey Technology GmbH (“ATG”). The accounts and operations of ICE, including its subsidiaries Global Integrated Media Limited and Global Integ. Media (GIM) Ltd., Corporation, have been included from the time of the share exchange on November 30, 2012 until divestiture on December 31, 2012. For financial statement presentation prior to November 30, 2012, the reporting entity consists of the combined financial statements of OHG and its two subsidiaries, HGG and ATG.
Prior to the share exchange referred to above, OHG owned separate legal entities which operated in a separate line of business, Satcom Global. That line of business was sold in a transaction executed in October 2012, prior to the share exchange with ICE. The historical financial statements presented as it relates to dates prior to the share exchange are those of the separate combined operations of OHG and its two subsidiaries, which are presented on a carve-out basis from the discontinued historical operations of Satcom Global. Management of the Company considers the basis on which the expenses have been allocated to the combined group to be a reasonable reflection of the utilization of the services provided to or received from during the periods presented. All revenues, expenses, gains and losses, assets and liabilities related to the Satcom Global business have been eliminated from these combined financial statements.
All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Note 2. Restatement of Financial Statements
One Horizon Group, Inc. (the "Company") is restating its consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2012 for the six months ended December 31, 2012 and as of and for years ended June 30, 2012, and 2011, to correct errors related to the recognition of revenue from sales of perpetual licenses to larger, top-tier ("Tier 1") and other ("Tier 2) telecom entities. Contracts with Tier 1 entities typically require agreed-upon fixed payments over fixed future periods extending beyond one year. Contracts with Tier 2 have long-term variable payment terms based on customer usage. The Company historically recognized the present value of Tier 1 contracts at the time of delivery. Revenue from Tier 2 contracts was historically recognized over the initial 5-year term on a straight-line basis.
The Company's decision to restate the aforementioned financial statements was made as a result of management's identification of errors related to the recognition of revenue from sales of perpetual licenses to certain Tier 1 and Tier 2 telecom entities. Management subsequently determined, and the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors adopted management's conclusion that, as a result of applying the guidance in ASC 985-605-25-32, a portion of the revenue recognized at the time of the sale of perpetual licenses to certain Tier 1 entities should have been deferred and recognized in future periods as payments became due. The conclusion was also reached that revenue from contracts with Tier 2 entities should have been recognized based on the timing of when payments became due (which is based on usage). The errors impacted accounts receivable and deferred revenue in the consolidated balance sheets as well as revenue in the consolidated statements of operations. As a result, revenue and net income were misstated in the consolidated statements of operations for the six months ended December 31, 2012 and years ended June 30, 2012 and 2011. Accounts receivable and deferred revenue were misstated in the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2012, June 30, 2012 and June 30, 2011. These errors were considered material to the consolidated financial statements. The effect of these errors on the consolidated results of operations for the six months ended December 31, 2012, was to reduce revenue and decrease net income by $4.75 million and $3.58 million, respectively The effect of these errors on the consolidated results of operations for the year ended June 30, 2012 was to reduce revenue and increase the net loss by $2.61 million and $2.54 million, respectively. The effect of these errors on the consolidated results of operations for the year ended June 30, 2011 was to reduce revenue and increase the net loss by $1.825 million and $1.825 million, respectively.
The consolidated financial statements have been restated as follows. The errors had no impact on the Company's consolidated net cash flows from investing and financing activities. The Company has also reclassified amortization of software development costs from the prior presentation as operating expenses to cost of revenue.

Note 3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Accounting and Presentation
These consolidated and combined financial statements have presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The Company changed its year end to December 31 and is presenting six-months operations for the period ended December 31, 2012.
Reporting Currency and Currency Translation
The reporting currency of the Company is the United States dollar. Assets and liabilities of operations other than those denominated in U.S. dollars, primarily in Switzerland, the United Kingdom and China, are translated into United States dollars at the rate of exchange at the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at the average rate of exchange throughout the period. Gains or losses from these translations are reported as a separate component of other comprehensive income (loss) until all or a part of the investment in the subsidiaries is sold or liquidated. The translation adjustments do not recognize the effect of income tax because the Company expects to reinvest the amounts indefinitely in operations.
Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange-rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in general and administrative expenses.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include bank demand deposit accounts and highly liquid short term investments with maturities of three months or less when purchased. Cash consists of checking accounts held at financial institutions in the United Kingdom, Switzerland, Ireland, Singapore, Hong Kong and China which, at times, balances may exceed insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses related to these balances, and management believes the credit risk to be minimal.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable result primarily from sale of software licenses to customers and are recorded at their principal amounts as payments become due. Receivables are considered past due once they exceed the terms of the sales transaction. When necessary, the Company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts that is based on a review of outstanding receivables, historical collection information, and current economic conditions. There was an allowance of $212,000 and $218,000 for doubtful accounts at December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012 respectively. Receivables are generally unsecured. Account balances are charged off against the allowance when the Company determines it is probable the receivable will not be recovered. The Company does not have off-balance sheet credit exposure related to its customers. One customer accounted for 15 percent of accounts receivable as of December 31, 2013. Two customers accounted for 26 percent of revenue for the year ended December 31, 2013.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment is primarily comprised of leasehold property improvements, motor vehicles and equipment that are recorded at cost and depreciated or amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives as follows: motor vehicles – 5 years, equipment – between 3 and 5 years and leasehold property improvements, over the lesser of the estimated remaining useful life of the asset or the remaining term of the lease.
Repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred. Expenditures that substantially increase the useful lives of existing assets are capitalized.
Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined as the exchange price that will be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value should maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. To measure fair value, the Company uses the following fair value hierarchy based on three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered to be observable and the third unobservable:
Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 – Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs are supported by little or no market activity and are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets include software development costs and customer relationships. Customer relationships are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives of five years. Amortization of capitalized software development costs is computed using the greater of (a) the ratio of the product’s current gross revenues to the total of current and expected gross revenues or (b) the straight-line method, computed by dividing the remaining unamortized cost by the estimated economic life of the product. The Company periodically evaluates whether changes have occurred that would require revision of the remaining estimated useful life.
The Company expenses all costs related to the development of software as incurred, other than those incurred after the achievement of technological feasibility during the application development stage. The Company expenses software development costs as incurred until technological feasibility has been established, at which time those costs are capitalized until the product is available for general release to customers. Judgment is required in determining when technological feasibility of a product is established. The Company has determined that after technological feasibility for software products is reached, the Company continues to address all high-risk development issues through coding and testing prior to the release of the products to customers. The amortization of these costs is included in cost of revenue over the estimated life of the products. During the year ended December 31, 2013, the six months ended December 31, 2012, and the year ended June 30, 2012, software development costs of $1,211,000, $486,000 and $3,466,000, respectively, have been capitalized.
Impairment of Other Long-Lived Assets
The Company evaluates the recoverability of its property and equipment and other long-lived assets including capitalized software development costs and customer relationships whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate impairment may have occurred. An impairment loss is recognized when the net book value of such assets exceeds the estimated future undiscounted cash flows attributed to the assets or the business to which the assets relate. Impairment losses, if any, are measured as the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the assets. During the year ended December 31, 2013, the six months ended December 31, 2012, and the year ended June 30, 2012, the Company identified no impairment losses related to the Company’s long-lived assets.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue when it is realized or realizable and earned. The Company establishes persuasive evidence of a sales arrangement for each type of revenue transaction based on a signed contract with the customer and that delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, the price is fixed and determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured.
● | Software licenses – revenue from sales of perpetual licenses to customers when payments for the licenses are fixed is recognized at the inception of the arrangement, unless the payment term exceeds one year and then only if the presumption that the license fee is not fixed or determinable can be overcome, presuming all other relevant revenue recognition criteria are met. If the presumption cannot be overcome, revenue is recognized as payments from the customer become due. Revenue from sales of perpetual licenses when payments for the licenses are payable over a period exceeding a year, and those payments are variable based on customer usage, are recognized as payments from the customer become due. |
● | Revenues for user licenses purchased by customers is recognized when the user license is delivered. |
● | Revenues for maintenance services are recognized over the period of delivery of the services. |
The Company enters into arrangements under which a customer purchases a combination of software licenses, maintenance services and post-contract customer support (“PCS”). As a result, judgment is sometimes required to determine the appropriate accounting, including how the price should be allocated among the deliverable elements if there are multiple elements. PCS may include rights to upgrades, when and if available, support, updates and enhancements. When vendor specific objective evidence (“VSOE”) of fair value exists for all elements in a multiple element arrangement, revenue is allocated to each element based on the relative fair value of each of the elements. VSOE of fair value is established by the price charged when the same element is sold separately. Accordingly, the judgments involved in assessing the fair values of various elements of an agreement can impact the recognition of revenue in each period. Changes in the allocation of the sales price between deliverables might impact the timing of revenue recognition, but would not change the total revenue recognized on the contract. When elements such as software and services are contained in a single arrangement, or in related arrangements with the same customer, revenue is allocated to each element based on its relative fair value, provided that such element meets the criteria for treatment as a separate unit of accounting. In the absence of fair value for a delivered element, revenue is first allocated to the fair value of the undelivered elements and then allocated to the residual delivered elements. In the absence of fair value for an undelivered element, the arrangement is accounted for as a single unit of accounting, resulting in a delay of revenue recognition for the delivered elements until the undelivered elements are fulfilled. No sales arrangements to date include undelivered elements for which VSOE does not exist.
For purposes of revenue recognition for perpetual licenses, the Company considers payment terms exceeding one year as a presumption that the fee in the transaction is not fixed or determinable. This presumption however, may be overcome if persuasive evidence demonstrates that the Company has a business practice of extending payment terms and has been successful in collecting under the original terms, without providing any concessions. In doing so, the Company considers if the arrangement is sufficiently similar to historical arrangements in terms of similar customers and products is assessing whether there is evidence of a history of successful collection.
In order to determine the Company’s historical experience is based on sufficiently similar arrangements, the Company considers the various factor including the types of customers and products, product life cycle, elements included in the arrangement, length of payment terms and economics of license arrangement.
If the presumption cannot be overcome due to a lack of such evidence, revenue is recognized as payments become due, assuming all other revenue recognition criteria has been met. Through December 31, 2013, the Company had no sales contracts for which revenue had been recognized since inception of the arrangements.
Leases
Rentals payable under operating leases are charged to income on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant lease.
Benefits received and receivable as an incentive to enter into an operating lease are also spread on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Advertising Expenses
It is the Company’s policy to expense advertising costs as incurred. No advertising costs were incurred during each of the year ended December 31, 2013, the six months ended December 31, 2012, and the year ended June 30, 2012.
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development expenses include all direct costs, primarily salaries for Company personnel and outside consultants, related to the development of new products, significant enhancements to existing products, and the portion of costs of development of software required to be expensed. Research and development costs are charged to operations as incurred with the exception of those software development costs that may qualify for capitalization. The Company incurred no research and development costs in the year ended December 31, 2013, the six months ended December 31, 2012, and the year ended June 30, 2012, respectively.
Income Taxes
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on temporary differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, operating loss, and tax credit carryforwards, and are measured using the enacted income tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Realization of certain deferred income tax assets is dependent upon generating sufficient taxable income in the appropriate jurisdiction. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce deferred income tax assets to amounts that are more likely than not to be realized. The initial recording and any subsequent changes to valuation allowances are based on a number of factors (positive and negative evidence). The Company considers its actual historical results to have a stronger weight than other, more subjective, indicators when considering whether to establish or reduce a valuation allowance.
The Company continually evaluates its uncertain income tax positions and may record a liability for any unrecognized tax benefits resulting from uncertain income tax positions taken or expected to be taken in an income tax return. Estimated interest and penalties are recorded as a component of interest expense and other expense, respectively.
Because tax laws are complex and subject to different interpretations, significant judgment is required. As a result, the Company makes certain estimates and assumptions in: (1) calculating its income tax expense, deferred tax assets, and deferred tax liabilities; (2) determining any valuation allowance recorded against deferred tax assets; and (3) evaluating the amount of unrecognized tax benefits, as well as the interest and penalties related to such uncertain tax positions. The Company’s estimates and assumptions may differ significantly from tax benefits ultimately realized.
Net Income per Share
Basic earnings per share of common stock is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common and potential common shares outstanding during the period, which includes the additional dilution related to conversion of outstanding stock options and warrants computed under the treasury stock method.
Common shares issuable are considered outstanding as of the original approval date for purposes of earnings per share computations. (in thousands)

Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)
Other comprehensive income (loss), as defined, includes net income, foreign currency translation adjustment, and all changes in equity (net assets) during a period from non-owner sources. To date, the Company has not had any significant transactions that are required to be reported in other comprehensive income (loss), except for foreign currency translation adjustments.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the fiscal year. The Company makes estimates for, among other items, useful lives for depreciation and amortization, determination of future cash flows associated with impairment testing for long-lived assets, determination of the fair value of stock options and warrants, determining fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations, valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, allowances for doubtful accounts, and potential income tax assessments and other contingencies. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience, current conditions, and other assumptions that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions.
Financial Instruments
The Company has the following financial instruments: cash, amounts due to related parties, and long-term debt. The carrying value of cash and long-term debt approximates their fair value due to their liquidity or their short-term nature valued consistent with the use of level 2 inputs. The fair value of amounts due to related parties is not determinable.
Share-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for stock-based awards at fair value on date of grant and recognition of compensation over the service period for awards expected to vest. The fair value of stock options is determined using the Black-Scholes valuation model, which is consistent with the Company’s valuation techniques previously utilized for options in footnote disclosures.
Note 4. China Operations
During the year ended December 31, 2013 the Company established a subsidiary in China, Horizon Network Technology Co. Ltd. (“HNT”). The establishment of HNT is part of the Company’s strategic plan to expand the application of mobile software and related marketing efforts into emerging markets. The Company contributed $1.5 million to form the subsidiary in which it now owns a 75% interest. The remaining 25% ownership interest in HNT was acquired by non-related parties through the transfer of noncash assets with a fair value of $500,000.
The results of operations, assets, liabilities and cash flows of HNT have been consolidated in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements as the Company owns a controlling interest in and manages HNT. The ownership interests in HNT held by parties other than the Company are presented separately from the Company’s equity on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as the Non Controlling Interest. The amount of consolidated net loss attributable to the Company and the non-controlling interest are both presented on the face of the consolidated financial statements.
