EXHIBIT 99.1

MGT Capital Investments, Inc. Provides Update on Recent Developments

******

NEW YORK, August 22, 2011 - MGT Capital Investments, Inc. (“MGT”, “we”, or “the Company”) (AMEX: MGT), a holding company engaged in the medical imaging industry, is providing the following update on recent developments at the Company and its majority-owned subsidiary Medicsight PLC (“Medicsight” or “MDST”).  In addition, MGT is reporting a summary of its recently filed financial results (via SEC Form 10-Q on August 15, 2011) for the period ending June 30, 2011.

Highlights:

· On July 8, 2011, both the Company and Medicsight announced the initiation of internal investigations through Special Committees of the Boards of Directors relating to the potential misappropriation and/or misdirection of corporate funds.  Based upon the substantially complete results of the investigation, the Company has concluded that no adjustments or restatement of prior issued financial statements is required.  Although the investigation remains on-going, the Board is confident that the Company’s financial statements will not require a material restatement as a result of any additional irregularities discovered in the future.  Furthermore, the Company intends to seek all possible methods of recovery or restitution where appropriate and where the cost of doing so will not be greater than the expected outcome.

· In late July 2011, Medicsight was informed by the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare (“MHLW”) that several statistical data errors were encountered in their review of the application for approval of its MedicRead software for use in CT Colonography procedures.  Following informal guidance from MHLW, the Company has decided to withdraw the current submission and is assessing the next course of action.  In the meantime, the Board of Directors of Medicsight has decided to close the Tokyo office as part of an overall program of expense reduction and corporate simplification.

· In addition to closing the Tokyo office, management of Medicsight has decided to close several other subsidiaries in Australia, China and the UAE citing the unjustifiably high legal, regulatory and accounting costs of maintaining such entities. However, in order to better exploit the recent U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s approval of ColonCAD, the Company will open a U.S. subsidiary (Medicsight, Inc.) in New York.

· The Board of Directors of Medicsight has also agreed to call a General Meeting of stockholders on September 14, 2011 to vote on whether to cancel its Ordinary Shares from trading on the AIM Exchange and to re-register as a private company.  Given that recent results have diminished the ability to raise new capital, along with the relatively large expense of maintaining a public listing, Medicsight’s Board is recommending this course of action as in the best interest of Medicsight and all MDST stockholders.

· On August 16, 2011 Peter Venton resigned from the Board of MGT. This action was taken to ensure that at least one Board member of MDST is independent of MGT.  In light of the announcement of the proposal to cancel the AIM quotation, it was considered impracticable to recruit any further independent directors for MDST at the current time.  However, should shareholders not pass the resolutions to effect the cancellation of the AIM quotation, the Board of Directors of MDST will take steps to supplement its current Board with an additional independent non-executive Director.

· NYSE Amex LLC has halted trading in the common stock of MGT pending the restarting of trading of MDST shares on the AIM market in London.  We anticipate that trading in MDST shares will resume as of the date of this press release and that shares of MGT will resume trading thereafter. There can be no guarantee that MDST stock will resume trading in London or that the NYSE Amex LLC will resume trading of MGT common stock upon the resumption of trading of MDST shares.

Summary Financial Results for the period ended June 30, 2011

For the six months ended June 30, 2011 revenues from licensing and other sales were $264,000, compared to $326,000 for the corresponding period in 2010. Total operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2011 were $5.2 million, compared to total operating expenses of $6.1 million in the comparable period for 2010.

For the quarter ended June 30, 2011, the Company reported a net loss of $2.9 million, or $0.07 per share, compared to a net loss of $4.0 million, or $0.12 per share, for the same period in 2010. Net loss per share for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 was based on weighted average of 39.5 million shares outstanding, compared to a weighted average of 32.5 million shares outstanding for the comparable period in 2010.

As noted above, based upon the preliminary results of the Special Committee investigations, the Company has concluded that no adjustments or restatement of our prior issued financial statements was required.  However, based upon the preliminary results of the investigation, an additional weakness in internal controls over financial reporting was identified surrounding the identification and disclosure for related party relationships and related party transactions.  We will assess the effectiveness of our remediation efforts in connection with our management's tests of internal control over financial reporting in conjunction with our December 31, 2011 financial statements.

At June 30, 2011 the Company reported cash and cash equivalents of $5.7 million compared to $8.4 million as of December 31, 2010.  The decrease is mainly attributable to cash used in operating activities. As stated in the Company’s most recent 10-Q filing, MGT had sufficient cash on hand and availability in the line of credit facility with a related party to continue operations through October 2011.

As a result of an action designed by the Company and MDST to reflect accurate cost allocation due to the recent headcount reductions at Medicsight, a majority of the compensation of the Company’s executive officers will be borne by Medicsight, effective August 1, 2011.  In addition, the expiration of Medicsight’s office lease in London on August 25, 2011 and the concomitant move of the Company’s and Medicsight’s operations to less costly space will materially reduce occupancy expenses for the Company.  These actions will enable cash on hand and availability in the line of credit facility with a related party to allow MGT to continue operations through March 2012, at which point the Company may need to seek additional sources of financing.  There is no guarantee that additional sources will be available at terms acceptable to the Company or at all.

 EXHIBIT 99.2

Press release 22 August 2011

Medicsight PLC

(“Medicsight” or “the Group”)

Preliminary Findings of the Special Committee

Results of a Comprehensive Strategic Review

General Meeting on 14 September 2011 for Stockholder Vote to Cancel Trading

on AIM

Interim Results for the Six Months Ended 30 June 2011

Medicsight PLC (AIM: MDST), an industry leader in the development of Computer-Aided Detection (CAD) and image analysis software, announces the preliminary findings of the Special Committee, results of a comprehensive strategic review including  actions taken by the Board of Directors, and Interim Results.

Preliminary findings of the Special Committee

On 8 July, Medicsight announced that it had initiated an internal investigation through a Special Committee of the Board of Directors regarding the potential misappropriation and/or misdirection of Company funds.  Based upon the substantially complete results of the investigation, the Company has concluded that no adjustments or restatement of prior issued financial statements is required.    Although the investigation remains on-going, the Board is confident that the Company’s financial statements will not require a material restatement as a result of any additional irregularities discovered in the future.  Furthermore, the Company intends to seek all possible methods of recovery or restitution where appropriate and where the cost of doing so will not be greater than the expected outcome.

Following the results of the investigation, the Board has requested the recommencement of trading in the Company’s ordinary shares to trading on AIM with immediate effect.

Comprehensive Strategic Review

Staff reductions and office relocation in London to conserve remaining cash in order to focus on existing products within approved markets

In order to maximize the opportunity for the Company’s ColonCAD software to succeed, particularly in the U.S. market, the decision was made to streamline operations with regard to headcount and overhead.  Medicsight utilised its lease termination option at its headquarters and will be moving shortly to more appropriate space.  Robert Ladd, Interim Chief Executive, commented:  “As difficult as this decision is, the only means of ensuring survival is to increase our runway until profitability; with a finite amount of cash, the only option is to reduce expenses.  Many people worked very hard to create and support our CAD medical software.  These cost cuts give hope for their vision to flourish.  The Board will continue to examine all opportunities to maximise value from the Company’s assets and generate value for shareholders.”

Closing of Tokyo office

In late July 2011, Medicsight was informed by the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare (“MHLW”) that several statistical data errors were encountered in their review of the Company’s application for approval of its MedicRead software for use in CT Colonography procedures.  Following informal guidance from MHLW, the Company has decided to withdraw the current submission and is assessing the next course of action.  In the meantime, the Board of Directors has decided to close the Tokyo office as part of the overall streamlining of operations and expense reductions.

Corporate organisational restructuring

In addition to Tokyo, the Board of Directors has decided to close several other Company subsidiaries in Australia, China and the UAE.  The legal, regulatory and accounting costs of maintaining so many legal entities cannot be justified at this point.  However, in order to better exploit the recent U.S. Food and Drug Administration approval of ColonCAD, the Company will reopen Medicsight, Inc. in New York.

2

Stockholder vote to delist from AIM

Medicsight’s Board of Directors will call a General Meeting of stockholders on Wednesday 14th September 2011 to vote on whether to cancel its Ordinary Shares from trading on the AIM Exchange and to re-register as a private company.

Whilst the Directors were pleased to announce on 19 May 2011 that they had received clearance from the US Food and Drug Administration for its ColonCAD™ API, this also led the Board to conduct a full review of its operations and future strategy.  The Board is very mindful that the Company has had minimal revenues since inception and is equally aware of the risks inherent in the commercialisation of emerging and new technologies in the US markets at the current time.  Full commercialisation of the ColonCAD API without a committed, US based, commercialisation partner, would involve the Company in significant incremental costs in terms of a sales, marketing and training platform in the US.

The Board is very aware that the ability to raise money in the equity markets at the current time is very limited, particularly for smaller companies.  The Directors have accordingly concluded that conservation of existing cash resources must be the Board’s first priority at the current time.  The Board considers that the costs associated with the Company’s quotation on AIM are large and, in the opinion of the Board, are not economically justified given the very low volumes of trading in the Company’s Ordinary Shares.  The Directors have decided to put a resolution to Shareholders for the termination of the AIM trading facility as part of the current austerity measures.

The Company has applied to the London Stock Exchange for the Cancellation and it is expected that, subject to the approval of Shareholders at the GM by Special Resolution, the Cancellation will become effective on 22 September 2011.  If the resolution is passed and the Cancellation becomes effective there will no longer be any public market in the Company’s Ordinary Shares.  It is not the intention of the Company to support any off-market or matched bargain facilities in the Ordinary Shares although certain stockbrokers or market intermediaries may be able to offer such services to Shareholders.

Should the delisting be approved, it is the intention of the Board to keep shareholders updated via its website.

3

It is expected that a full copy of the circular will be sent to shareholders on 23 August 2012 and will be available on the Company’s website at www.medicsight.com.

On 16 August 2011, Peter Venton resigned from the Board of MGT Investments Inc. (“MGT”), the Company’s majority shareholder. This action has been taken to ensure that one Board member is independent of MGT. In light of the announcement of the proposals to cancel the AIM quotation it was considered impracticable to recruit any further independent directors for the Company at the current time, however, should shareholders resolve not to pass the resolutions to effect the cancellation of the AIM quotation the Board will take steps to supplement its current constitution with an additional independent non-executive director.

Interim results for the six months ended 30 June 2011

Highlights

· Received U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) 510(k) clearance to market ColonCAD in the U.S. on 19 May

· Received EU (CE) approval and launched ColonCAD 4.1 on 25 March

· Revenue decreased to £162,000 (2010: £215,000)

· Operating costs increased to £2,703,000 (2010: £2,622,000)

· Group cash balance at 30 June 2011 of £3,399,000 (2010: £8,282,000)

Medicsight has received its FDA clearance to market ColonCAD in the United States and is working with its partners to establish reference centres and to begin generating initial sales. In the six months ended 30 June 2011, ColonCAD sales decreased compared to the previous year and sales of the MedicCO2LON insufflator system decreased marginally.

Operating expenses were slightly higher than the previous year due to the costs of professional fees relating to the response to FDA, third party work on product development and severance costs relating to previous reductions in employment.

As at 30 June Medicsight’s cash balance was £3,399,000. In order to preserve cash and maximise the potential U.S. market, we have begun implementing a company-wide expense reduction program as stated above. We expect to see a reduction in total expenses in the second half of this year.

NOTES TO INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED 30 JUNE 2011

1. Basis of preparation of interim financial information

These interim consolidated financial statements are for the six months ended 30 June 2011. The interim financial report, which is unaudited, has been prepared in accordance with the recognition and measurement criteria of International Financial Reporting Standards and IFRIC interpretations adopted for use in the European Union (IFRS). The accounting policies and methods of computation used are consistent with those used in the Group annual report for the year ended 31 December 2010 and are expected to be used in the Group Annual Report for the year ended 31 December 2011.

In the period, MedicCO2LON Limited, a subsidiary of the group, made the first sales of its CO2 insufflation device. The revenue from the device is recognised as goods and orders are satisfied, and goods are delivered.

The financial information for the year ended 31 December 2010 does not constitute statutory information. A copy of the statutory accounts for that year has been delivered to the Registrar of Companies. The auditors’ report on these accounts was not qualified and did not contain statements under section 498(2) and (3) of the Companies Act 2006.

The interim consolidated financial statements are presented in pounds sterling because that is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the group operates. All values are rounded to the nearest thousand pounds (£000) except when otherwise stated.

Going concern

The Group is loss making and has yet to make meaningful revenues. Despite U.S. FDA clearance in May 2011, the group may need to raise additional capital to fully exploit this approval. In addition, any potential resubmission to MHLW may also require additional capital. In light of this, the directors have reviewed cash flow forecasts and the Group’s capital and liquidity requirements for the balance of 2011 and for 2012. The directors have considered various scenarios and have concluded that aggressive cost controls are necessary. These actions as outlined above should allow that with the remaining cash available and the ability to further manage expenditure rates, the accounts should be prepared on a going concern basis.

2. Segment Reporting

The Group operates in two business areas. Our primary business is the development and commercialisation of medical imaging software. To complement this business the Group has launched the MedicCO2LON Insufflator, a hardware product that is used to introduce carbon dioxide gas to distend the colon when patients are undergoing a CT colonography examination. This results in improved image quality and supports diagnostic interpretation.

Operating results are reported to the Group’s chief operating decision maker on a geographical basis. As a new business our MedicCO2LON business operates through a new subsidiary in the UAE. The following reports financial information on a geographical basis and reconciles it to the Group’s results.

Loss per ordinary share – basic and diluted		(2p	)		(2p	)		(3p	)

The loss per share is based on the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the year. The Group has recorded a loss in all periods. No adjustment has been made to the basic loss per share, as the exercise of the share options would have the effect of reducing the loss per ordinary share and is anti-dilutive.
