The Company designs, develops, markets, and exports proprietary software products to customers in the automobile finance and leasing, banking, healthcare, and financial services industries worldwide.  The Company also provides system integration, consulting, IT products and services in exchange for fees from customers.
 
The consolidated condensed interim financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.
 
These statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for fair presentation of the information contained therein.  It is suggested that these consolidated condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2012.  The Company follows the same accounting policies in preparation of interim reports.  Results of operations for the interim periods are not indicative of annual results.

NOTE 2 – ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
New Accounting Pronouncements
 
In July 2012, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update 2012-02 (“ASU 2012-02”), Intangibles — Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment. The purpose of ASU 2012-02, which amends the guidance to Topic 350, Intangibles — Goodwill and Other, is to simplify the guidance for testing the decline in the realizable value (impairment) of indefinite-lived intangible assets other than goodwill. ASU 2012-02 allows an entity to perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether further impairment testing of indefinite-lived intangible assets is necessary, similar in approach to the qualitative goodwill impairment test. The amendments in ASU 2012-02 permit an entity to first assess qualitatively whether it is more likely than not (more than 50%) that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired, thus necessitating that it perform the quantitative impairment test. An entity is not required to calculate the fair value of an indefinite lived intangible asset and perform the quantitative impairment test unless the entity determines that it is more likely than not that the asset is impaired. ASU 2012-02 is effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012 and early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
 
In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-02, which established the effective date for the requirement to present components of reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income on the face of the income statement. The standard is effective in the second quarter of fiscal 2013, and is not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

(B) EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN
 
In May 2011, the shareholders approved the 2011 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2011 Plan”) which provides for the grant of equity-based awards, including options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards or performance share awards or any other right or interest relating to shares or cash, to eligible participants. The aggregate number of shares reserved and available for award under the 2011 Plan is 500,000 (the Share Reserve). The 2011 Plan contemplates the issuance of common stock upon exercise of options or other awards granted to eligible persons under the 2011 Plan. Shares issued under the 2011 Plan may be both authorized and unissued shares or previously issued shares acquired by the Company. Upon termination or expiration of an unexercised option, stock appreciation right or other stock-based award under the 2011 Plan, in whole or in part, the number of shares of common stock subject to such award again becomes available for grant under the 2011 Plan. Any shares of restricted stock forfeited as described below will become available for grant. The maximum number of shares that may be granted to any one participant in any calendar year may not exceed 50,000 shares. All options issued pursuant to the Plan are nontransferable and subject to forfeiture.
 
STOCK OPTIONS
 
Options granted under the 2011 Plan are not generally transferable and must be exercised within 10 years, subject to earlier termination upon termination of the option holder's employment, but in no event later than the expiration of the option's term. The exercise price of each option may not be less than the fair market value of a share of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant (except in connection with the assumption or substitution for another option in a manner qualifying under Section 424(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code). Incentive stock options granted to any participant who owns 10% or more of the Company’s outstanding common stock (a Ten Percent Shareholder) must have an exercise price equal to or exceeding 110% of the fair market value of a share of our common stock on the date of the grant and must not be exercisable for longer than five years. Options become vested and exercisable at such times or upon such events and subject to such terms, conditions, performance criteria or restrictions as specified by the Committee. The maximum term of any option granted under the 2011 Plan is ten years, provided that an incentive stock option granted to a ten percent shareholder must have a term not exceeding five years.
 
PERFORMANCE AWARDS
 
Under the 2011 Plan, a participant may also be awarded a "performance award," which means that the participant may receive cash, stock or other awards contingent upon achieving performance goals established by the Committee. The Committee may also make "deferred share" awards, which entitle the participant to receive our stock in the future for services performed between the date of the award and the date the participant may receive the stock. The vesting of deferred share awards maybe based on performance criteria and/or continued service with our Company. A participant who is granted a "stock appreciation right" under the Plan has the right to receive all or a percentage of the fair market value of a share of stock on the date of exercise of the stock appreciation right minus the grant price of the stock appreciation right determined by the Committee (but in no event less than the fair market value of the stock on the date of grant). Finally, the Committee may make "restricted stock" awards under the 2011 Plan, which is subject to such terms and conditions as the Committee determines and as are set forth in the award agreement related to the restricted stock. As of December 31, 2012, 16,950 shares have been issued under this plan to non- officers employees

In today’s highly competitive marketplace, business executives with labor or services-centric budgetary responsibilities are not just encouraged but, in fact, obliged to engage in “Make or Buy” decision process when contemplating how to support and staff new development, testing, services support and delivery activities.  The Company business offerings are aligned as a BestShoring® solutions strategy.  Simply defined, BestShoring® is NetSol Technologies’ ability to draw upon its global resource base and construct the best possible solution and price for each and every customer.  Unlike traditional outsourcing offshore vendors, NetSol draws upon an international workforce and delivery capability to ensure a “BestShoring® delivers BestSolution™” approach.
 
NetSol combines domain expertise with competitive cost blended rates from its “center of excellence”  delivery center in Pakistan and other global centers located in the USA, UK, Thailand and China, Our model also provides localized programs in key markets and project management while minimizing any implementation risk associated with a single service center.  Our BestShoring® approach, which we consider a unique and cost effective global development model, is leading the way, providing value added solutions for Global Business Services™ through a win-win partnership, rather than the traditional outsourced vendor framework.  Our global locations provide NetSol customers with the optimum balance of subject matter expertise, in-depth domain experience, and cost effective labor, all merged into a scalable solution.  In this way, “BestShoring® delivers BestSolution™”.

Marketing and Business Development Activities
 
Management has developed, and the board of directors has ratified, an aggressive 3-5 year growth strategy aimed at increasing competitiveness and financial strength.
 
This plan is designed to:
 
● 
Achieve 15-25% annual revenue growth for the next 5 years
 
● 
Achieve 55-60% gross margins in 2013, anticipate average 63 to 65% for next three years.
 
Result in enhanced organic growth
 
Building a strong new ecommerce vertical under Vroozi platform
 
Continue to enhance delivery and service capabilities in Thailand, China and Pakistan
 
Strengthen NetSol brand and market shares in APAC markets
 
● 
Continue to hire the best available talent to develop the next line of managers for our growing demand
 
The plan contemplates the following enhanced activities and initiatives will accomplish these goals:
 
o  
Continued expansion in the Chinese market which offers ever growing new opportunities in the auto, banking and lending sectors for NFS™.
 
o  
NetSol is positioning China to become a dominant market for lending enterprise solutions for captive multinationals and local Chinese companies, including equipment finance, big ticket leasing markets and the banking industry. In the lease and finance domain NetSol can claim the de facto leadership position in the rapidly growing Chinese market.
 
o  
Further augmentation of NTPK Thailand. The office space in Bangkok has been enhanced with new hires of local and international staff to address and support a very rapidly growing market. The pipeline of new customers is growing from the markets in Japan, South Korea, Australia, India and other regional markets. These markets will be serviced and supported from the Thailand office with strong sales and client support team. The Bangkok facility is intended to become an alternate delivery and implementation center for global customers and partners in Asia Pacific.
 
o  
The new and fast growing manifestations of e-commerce, such as cloud computing, are being utilized by some of our offerings and will be further explored by us for other offerings. Our e-commerce division’s smartOCI® has been demonstrated and presented to major fortune 500 companies in the US as an on-demand, catalogue content management system. The demand of e-procurement search engine seems robust and attractive. Continued new license sales activities are in the pipeline for Vroozi, Inc. Presently smartOCI® is the main asset in this entity while we explore other channels of growth in e-commerce and search engine space. There has been a surge of interest amongst fortune 500 corporations for demos and workshops for smartOCI® in recent months. To date, ten new US based major corporations have been signed up for smartOCI®.
 
o  
Europe continues to experience a severe recession coupled with regional debt crises.  NetSol Europe’s operations have maintained modest growth in sales while the Company has further rationalized overall operating overheads. The gross margins with a few clients have been improved reflecting long term commitment for both parties.   In addition, the successful integration of VLS in conjunction with Investec Bank as a JV partner should bolster growth in services sectors complementing core solutions and augmenting overall market share in the UK.

NETSOL TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
 
o  
The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is undergoing massive development in education, technology, infrastructure, healthcare, public and defense sectors. The economy is robust, rich and well capitalized, offering vast opportunities for NetSol through our joint venture ANSCL. Recently, there have been a few new local IT contracts awarded but our vision is based on long term and high value projects in the defense, public, infrastructure and multinational auto captive markets. Within the Kingdom, we forsee bigger contracts and projects that will require both the financial wherewithal and strong balance sheet of Atheeb and the technical expertise of NetSol. The JV is positively shaping up as the pipeline is improving every quarter. Currently, the joint venture has 10 employees based in Riyadh with direct delivery and implementation support from NetSol PK. In the last few months NSCL signed four new contracts both in defense and private sector to provide IT services and consulting in the key areas that are valued to over $2.0MN. This is just a beginning as we anticipate very exciting developments as we close new contracts.
 
Growth – New Alliances, Mergers & Acquisition
 
The markets in the US and UK offer a host of synergistic and complementary companies with impressive client bases to expand the distribution channels for NFS™ and its new generation product line.  There are established small sized Companies, with relatively low valuations, which can become part of NetSol on an affordable basis. It is important to seek out these companies in order to grow our customer base, revenue and net margins by leveraging our delivery and implementation model.
 
Funding and Investor Relations:
 
The fundamental challenge constantly facing the management is to achieve sustainable growth with a healthy balance sheet, without too much dilution. In light of global opportunities for organic growth and through alliances and mergers and acquisitions, the Company raised cash through a public offering of shares of common stock in 2012.  We are using this cash infusion to support sales and marketing, Vroozi, infrastructure, and operations and capital investment in the Chinese subsidiary, NetSol Beijing.  Going forward any new capital raise would depend on new opportunities to accelerate growth organically and/or through M&A.
 
Investor Relations efforts will include:
 
·  
Working to grow our institutional investor base.
 
·  
Sharing the NetSol story with sell side analysts, funds, portfolio managers and the financial media.
 
·  
Aggressively positioning NetSol in front of major investors’ conferences and road shows to be organized by our IR consultants and investment bankers.
 
·  
Utilizing US mainstream media to highlight NetSol’s image and ‘niche’ business offering.
 
·  
Founding management continued investment in the Company in the open market reaffirming their commitment to the potential and the future of the Company.
 
Improving the Bottom Line:
 
Management believes that these measures will improve the bottom line on an ongoing basis:
 
·  
Improve pricing, sales volume and fee structures.
 
·  
Continue consolidation and reevaluating operating margins as ongoing activities.
 
·  
Streamline further cost of goods sold to improve gross margins to historical levels over 60%, as sales ramp up.
 
·  
Generate higher revenues per employee, enhance productivity and lower cost per employee.
 
·  
Optimize the utilization of NetSol’s best talent and resources, infrastructure, processes and disciplines to maximize the bottom-line and fully leverage the cost arbitrage.
 
·  
Grow process automation and leverage the best practices of CMMI level 5. Global delivery concept and integration will further improve both gross and net margins.
 
·  
Cost efficient management of every operation and continue further consolidation to improve bottom line.
 
·  
Create more visibility and predictability by implementing SaaS model in mature markets. Retire Debt to reduce the interest cost significantly and to make every effort to avoid any one time charges.

NETSOL TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
 
Management continues to be focused on scaling up its delivery capability and has achieved key milestones in that respect.  Key projects are being delivered on time and on budget, quality initiatives are succeeding, especially in maturing internal processes.  CMMI level companies are reassessed every three years by independent consultants under the standards of the Carnegie Mellon University to maintain its CMMI Level 5 quality certification.  As required, NetSol was reassessed in 2010 and was successfully recertified as CMMI Level 5.  We believe that the CMMI standards are a key reason in NetSol’s demand surge worldwide. We remain convinced that this trend will continue for all NetSol offerings promoting further beneficial alliances and increasing the number and quality of our global customers.
 
MATERIAL TRENDS AFFECTING NETSOL
 
Management has identified the following material trends affecting NetSol.
 
Positive trends:
 
·  
The global economic uncertainty and consolidations have opened doors for low cost solution providers such as NetSol; the BestShoring® model of NetSol is a catalyst in today’s environment.
 
·  
Global economic pressures and the recession have shifted users of IT processes and technology to utilize both offshore and onshore solutions providers, to control costs and improve ROIs.
 
·  
Serious interest in NetSol’s next generation solution has been expressed by a few global companies.  Demos and workshops with key global clients and partners of have been very well received. Hence, the groundwork for the new generation solution, is gaining momentum.
 
·  
First successful implementation of NextGen – NFS™ solution with a Thai bank is a very positive indicator for new deals.
 
·  
China has become the world’s second largest economy, continuing to grow by over 8% a year while growth in other industrial nations has declined or grown only marginally.
 
·  
China’s automobile and banking sectors have been unaffected by the global meltdown and their recent automobile sales statistics continue to outperform all other economies. China’s passenger vehicle sales rose 49% in December 2012, while China’s total vehicle sales, including trucks and buses, is projected  to accelerate this year and surpass 20 million for the first time according to Bloomberg News, February 7, 2013.
 
·  
Growing interest in Japan for IT services and NFS applications within banking, equipment finance and general leasing industries.
 
·  
E-Commerce, new technologies, innovations and online activities are gaining momentum in many verticals.   New areas for diversification are opening for NetSol. The B2B e-commerce market has never been stronger with the US market alone tracking at close to $4 trillion in total spend in 2012 thereby offering a potentially huge opportunity to grow Vroozi offerings.
 
·  
Vroozi provides a strong entry in the e-commerce and cloud by way of developing and marketing a new IP with the Vroozi Shopping Platform and smartOCI and landing Fortune 500 US customers.
 
·  
Companies which survived the recent recession, such as NetSol, with price advantage and a global presence, will gain further momentum as economic indicators continue to turn positive. The bigger customers and targeted verticals are much more cost conscious and are seeking a better rate of return on investments in IT services. NetSol has an edge due to its BestShoring® model and proven track record of delivery and implementations worldwide.
 
·  
The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is investing billions in healthcare, education, defense, cyberspace securities, IT, infrastructure and many other new sectors. This makes it one of the most promising markets for the Atheeb NetSol joint venture.
 
·  
The dependency of our blue chip clients on NetSol solutions has further deepened; creating new enhancements, new modules, and services orders in the US.
 
·  
Global opportunities requiring NetSol to diversify its delivery capabilities to Bangkok and such other new emerging economies that offer geopolitical stability and low cost IT resources, thereby reducing dependency upon the Lahore technology campus.
 
 
30

 
NETSOL TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
 
·  
Our global multi-national clients have continued to pursue deeper relationships in newer regions and countries. This reflects our customers’ dependencies and satisfaction with our NetSol Financial Suite of products.
 
·  
The levy of Indian IT sector excise tax of 35% (NASSCOM) on software exports is very positive for NetSol. In Pakistan there is a 15 year tax holiday on IT exports of services. There are 4 more years remaining on this tax incentive.
 
Negative trends:
 
·  
Geopolitical unrest due to extremism in the regions of Pakistan and Afghanistan.
 
·  
Continued strains in US-Pakistan relations.
 
·  
The emergence of many smaller players offering IT solutions in China has resulted in greater price competition.
 
·  
The fear of renewed recession in the US and, a continued sluggish European market could adversely affect our business in North America and Europe.
 
·  
Tightened liquidity and credit restrictions in consumer spending has either delayed or reduced spending on business solutions and systems, squeezing IT budgets and extending decision making cycles. Restricted liquidity and financial burden due to tighter internal processes and limited budgets might cause delays in the receivables from some clients. Anticipated worsening US deficit and a rise in inflation in coming years would put further stress on consumers and business spending.
 
·  
Volatility in oil prices, Euro zone in European markets and uncertainty overall in global economies could deter the growth and GDP in the US.
 
·  
Unrest and growing war in Afghanistan could increase the migration of both refugees and extremists to Pakistan, thus creating domestic and regional challenges.
 
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Our financial statements and accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are affected by management’s application of accounting policies. Critical accounting policies for us include revenue recognition and multiple element arrangements, intangible assets, software development costs, and goodwill.
 
REVENUE RECOGNTION
 
The Company recognizes revenue from license contracts without major customization when a non-cancelable, non-contingent license agreement has been signed, delivery of the software has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable, and collectability is probable. Revenue from the sale of licenses with major customization, modification, and development is recognized on a percentage of completion method. Revenue from the implementation of software is recognized on a percentage of completion method.
 
Revenue from consulting services is recognized as the services are performed for time-and-materials contracts. Revenue from training and development services is recognized as the services are performed. Revenue from maintenance agreements is recognized ratably over the term of the maintenance agreement, which in most instances is one year.
 
MULTIPLE ELEMENT ARRANGEMENTS
 
We may enter into multiple element revenue arrangements in which a customer may purchase a number of different combinations of software licenses, consulting services, maintenance and support, as well as training and development (multiple element arrangements).
 
VSOE of fair value for each element is based on the price for which the element is sold separately. We determine the VSOE of fair value of each element based on historical evidence of our stand-alone sales of these elements to third-parties or from the stated renewal rate for the elements contained in the initial software license arrangement. When VSOE of fair value does not exist for any undelivered element, revenue is deferred until the earlier of the point at which such VSOE of fair value exists or until all elements of the arrangement have been delivered. The only exception to this guidance is when the only undelivered element is maintenance and support or other services, then, the entire arrangement fee is recognized ratably over the performance period.
 
 
31

 
NETSOL TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
 
INTANGIBLE ASSETS
 
Intangible assets consist of product licenses, renewals, enhancements, copyrights, trademarks, trade names, and customer lists. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over the estimated useful life and are evaluated for impairment at least on an annual basis and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. We assess recoverability by determining whether the carrying value of such assets will be recovered through the undiscounted expected future cash flows. If the future undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying amount of these assets, we recognize an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the assets.
 
SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT COSTS
 
Costs incurred to internally develop computer software products or to enhance an existing product are recorded as research and development costs and expensed when incurred until technological feasibility for the respective product is established. Thereafter, all software development costs are capitalized and reported at the lower of unamortized cost or net realizable value. Capitalization ceases when the product or enhancement is available for general release to customers.
 
The Company makes on-going evaluations of the recoverability of its capitalized software projects by comparing the amount capitalized for each product to the estimated net realizable value of the product. If such evaluations indicate that the unamortized software development costs exceed the net realizable value, the Company writes off the amount which the unamortized software development costs exceed net realizable value. Capitalized and purchased computer software development costs are being amortized ratably based on the projected revenue associated with the related software or on a straight-line basis.
 
STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
 
Our stock-based compensation expense is estimated at the grant date based on the award’s fair value as calculated by the Black-Scholes-Merton (BSM) option pricing model and is recognized as expense over the requisite service period. The BSM model requires various highly judgmental assumptions including expected volatility and expected term. If any of the assumptions used in the BSM model changes significantly, stock-based compensation expense may differ materially in the future from that recorded in the current period. In addition, we are required to estimate the expected forfeiture rate and only recognize expense for those shares expected to vest. We estimate the forfeiture rate based on historical experience and our expectations regarding future pre-vesting termination behavior of employees. To the extent our actual forfeiture rate is different from our estimate; stock-based compensation expense is adjusted accordingly.
 
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTES
 
For information with respect to recent accounting pronouncements and the impact of these pronouncements on our consolidated financial statements, see Note 2 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.
 
GOODWILL
 
Goodwill represents the excess of the aggregate purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired in a purchase businesses combination. Goodwill is reviewed for impairment on an annual basis, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of goodwill may be impaired. The goodwill impairment test is a two-step test. Under the first step, the fair value of the reporting unit is compared with its carrying value (including goodwill). If the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value, an indication of goodwill impairment exists for the reporting unit and the enterprise must perform step two of the impairment test (measurement). Under step two, an impairment loss is recognized for any excess of the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s goodwill over the implied fair value of that goodwill. The implied fair value of goodwill is determined by allocating the fair value of the reporting unit in a manner similar to a purchase price allocation. The residual fair value after this allocation is the implied fair value of the reporting unit goodwill. Fair value of the reporting unit is determined using a discounted cash flow analysis. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds its carrying value, step two does not need to be performed.

Net revenues for the quarter ended December 31, 2012 were $11,807,669 as compared to $8,606,052 for the quarter ended December 31, 2011.  This reflects a significant increase of $3,201,617 or 37.20% in the current quarter as compared to the quarter ended December 31, 2011.  Year over year, revenue from license income was increased by $1,457,992 mainly due to signing of new deals of the core NetSol Financial SuiteTM. Services revenue, which also includes consulting and implementation, increased to $5,637,009, as compared to $4,436,915 last year. This is an increase by 27.05%. The increase in services revenue is due to implementation of our product at new customers’ sites and ongoing requests for customization and enhancement from our existing customers. Service revenue also includes an amount of $145,250 from services provided to a related party. Maintenance fees increased by $543,531, to $2,664,813, in the current quarter, as compared to $2,121,282, in the comparable period. The increase was also due to re-negotiation of rates with some of the customers. Also as we manage to sell more licenses, this fee is expected to increase in the future.

This is an increase of $3,623,643 or_116%. The increase in license revenue is mainly due to signing of the new deals of the flagship product “NetSol Financial Suite”. Services revenue, which also includes consulting and implementation, significantly increased to $11,421,702 as compared to $7,552,567 last year. While existing clients have requested new services and enhancements, the services income has also increased due to implementation of the product at the business sites of new customers.

In the first half of fiscal 2012, our maintenance fees increased by $552,031, from $4,158,488 last year, to $4,710,519. The increase was also due to re-negotiation of rates with some of the customers. Also as we manage to sell more licenses, this fee is expected to increase in the future.

The Company is operating in varying geographical regions of the world through its various subsidiaries. Those subsidiaries have financial arrangements from various financial institutions to meet both their short and long term funding requirements. These loans will become due at different maturity dates the detail of which is given in Note No. 13 of the annexed financial statements. The company and all its subsidiaries are in compliance with the covenants of the financial arrangements and there is no default, whatsoever, which may lead to early payment of these obligations. The Company anticipates to pay back all these obligations on their respective due dates from its own sources.
 
We remain open to strategic relationships that would provide value added benefits. The focus will remain on continuously improving cash reserves internally and reduced reliance on external capital raise.
 
As a growing company, we have on-going capital expenditure needs based on our short term and long term business plans.  Although our requirements for capital expenses vary from time to time, for the next 12 months, we anticipate needing working capital of $5.0 to $7.0 million for US, European and UAE, new business development activities and infrastructure enhancements.
 
While there is no guarantee that any of these methods will result in raising sufficient funds to meet our capital needs or that even if available will be on terms acceptable to the Company, we will be very cautious and prudent about any new capital raise given the global market declines.  However, the Company is very conscious of the dilutive effect and price pressures in raising equity-based capital.
 
Financial Covenants

NTE had been granted another credit facility of £1,000,000 for the acquisition VLS. This facility requires that NTE’s adjusted tangible net worth would not be less than £600,000. For this purpose, adjusted tangible net worth means shareholders’ funds less intangible assets plus non-redeemable preference shares. In addition, NTE’s cash debt service coverage would not fall below 150% of the aggregate debt service cost.  The Pakistani subsidiary, NetSol Technologies Limited (NTPK) has an approved facility for both export refinance and term finance from Askari Bank Limited amounting to Rupees 362.5 million ($3,793,428) which requires NTPK to maintain a long term debt equity ratio of 60:40 and the current ratio of 1:1.

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures
 
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act, as of the end of the period covered by this Report (December 31, 2012).   Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Financial Officer and Chief Executive Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective given the weakness of our internal control over financial reporting.
 
Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
Our management has the responsibility to establish and maintain adequate internal controls over our financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934. Our internal controls are designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting and the preparation of our external financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).
 
Due to inherent limitations of any internal control system, management acknowledges that there are limitations as to the effectiveness of internal controls over financial reporting and therefore recognize that only reasonable assurance can be gained from any internal control system. Accordingly, our internal control system may not detect or prevent material misstatements in our financial statements and projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
 
Under the supervision and participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we have performed an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012. This assessment was based on the criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework, issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on the results of our assessment, the Company has determined that as of December 31, 2012, there was a material weakness in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Specifically, while in the performance of this assessment, management identified that its accounting staff do not have sufficient technical accounting knowledge relating to accounting for complex U.S. GAAP matters.  Although our CFO is a Chartered Accountant (CA) in Pakistan neither he, nor our controllers, holds a Certified Public Accounting (CPA) license in the United States.  While the CA certification is recognized in several key countries relative to the Company’s operations, including Pakistan, the United Kingdom, and other British Commonwealth countries, the Company has determined that a deficiency exists with respect to required financial reporting expertise in the United States. Based on this evaluation, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2012.   Notwithstanding the existence of such material weakness in our internal controls over financial reporting, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, believes that the financial statements included in this report fairly present in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.
 
Management is committed to remediating the material weakness as quickly as possible and we will continue to encourage our current accounting staff to both further their continuing education and to sit for the Certified Public Accountant exam in the United States. In fact, our U.S. controller has recently completed his M.S. in Accounting.  This additional education bolsters the on-the-job U.S. GAAP knowledge with U.S. accounting training.  This accomplishment demonstrates the Company’s attention to remedying this weakness and steps towards  implementing additional controls and procedures during the current fiscal year to continue to ensure timely and accurate financial reporting objectives by  providing appropriate oversight of the financial reporting process and continued training of the accounting staff; recruitment of additional personnel with relevant U.S. GAAP experience to enhance our financial reporting and internal control function.  As our controller is intricately involved in the reporting of the Company, we believe his expanded knowledge base will result in the elimination of this weakness in the near term..
 
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
There have been no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the first quarter of fiscal year 2013 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
