Item 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.
 
On September 7, 2006, IDT Corporation (the “Registrant) and its subsidiary IDT Dutch Holdings BV (“Dutch Holdings”) entered into a conditional Share Sale and Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) for the sale of the Registrant’s U.K.-based Toucan consumer phone services business (“Toucan business”) to Pipex Communications plc (“Pipex”). Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, Pipex is assuming Toucan’s existing customer base and those employees supporting Toucan’s operations. The parties subsequently amended the Agreement to provide that the consideration is to consist of £4 million in Pipex ordinary shares and the repayment in cash of £20 million of obligations due by the Toucan business to the Registrant and certain of its affiliates. A copy of the amendment is annexed hereto as Exhibit 2.2. Consummation of the sale of the majority of the Toucan business occurred on October 11, 2006. The sale of the remainder of the Toucan business, a call center in Sligo, Ireland that supports the U.K. business, is expected to take place following receipt of applicable regulatory approvals and satisfying certain customary closing conditions. On October 12, 2006, the Registrant issued a press release regarding the consummation of the sale of the majority of the Toucan business, a copy of which is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
 
Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.
 
On October 12, 2006, the Registrant issued a press release announcing the consummation of the sale of the majority of the Toucan business described in Item 2.01 above. The press release is being furnished and shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) or otherwise subject to the liabilities of such section, nor shall such information be deemed to be incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.

PROFORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
(unaudited)
 
The proforma condensed consolidated balance sheet as of July 31, 2006, and the proforma condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three years in the period ended July 31, 2006, are based on the historical financial statements of the Registrant.
 
The proforma condensed consolidated balance sheet as of July 31, 2006, is presented as if the disposition of the Toucan business and receipt of the proceeds by the Registrant as described in item 2.01 of this Form 8-K occurred in its entirety on July 31, 2006. As set forth in Item 2.01 of this Form 8-K, as of October 11, 2006, the first stage of such disposition has been consummated.
 
The proforma condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three years in the period ended July 31, 2006, are presented as if the disposition of the Toucan business and receipt of the proceeds by the Registrant as described in Item 2.01 of this Form 8-K occurred on November 1, 2003, on which date the Registrant launched the Toucan business. The proforma condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements and notes related thereto appearing in the Registrant’s Annual Reports on Form 10-K for the fiscal years ended July 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004.
 
Preparation of the proforma information was based on assumptions considered appropriate by the Registrant’s management. The proforma financial information is unaudited and is not necessarily indicative of the results which would have occurred if the transactions described above had been consummated on November 1, 2003 for the proforma condensed consolidated statements of operations and on July 31, 2006 for the proforma condensed consolidated balance sheet, nor does it purport to represent the future financial position and the results of operations for future periods. In management’s opinion, all adjustments necessary to reflect the effects of the transactions listed above have been made.
