NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

Note 1—Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of IDT Corporation and its subsidiaries (the “Company” or “IDT”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and nine months ended April 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending July 31, 2015. The balance sheet at July 31, 2014 has been derived from the Company’s audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. For further information, please refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2014, as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

The Company’s fiscal year ends on July 31 of each calendar year. Each reference below to a fiscal year refers to the fiscal year ending in the calendar year indicated (e.g., fiscal 2015 refers to the fiscal year ending July 31, 2015).

Note 2—Sale of Interest in Fabrix Systems Ltd.

On October 8, 2014, the Company completed the sale of its interest in Fabrix Systems Ltd. (“Fabrix”) to Telefonaktiebolget LM Ericsson (publ) (“Ericsson”). The final sale price for 100% of the shares in Fabrix was $95 million in cash, excluding transaction costs and working capital and other adjustments. The Company owned approximately 78% of Fabrix on a fully diluted basis. The Company’s share of the sale price was $68.1 million, after reflecting the impact of working capital and other adjustments. At April 30, 2015, the Company had received cash of $36.4 million and had aggregate receivables of $31.7 million, which was classified as “Receivable from sale of interest in Fabrix Systems Ltd.” in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. The Company and the other shareholders placed $13.0 million of the proceeds in escrow for the resolution of post-closing claims that may arise. Any unclaimed escrow balance will be released in two tranches in October 2015 and April 2016. In the three months ended April 30, 2015, the Company recorded gain on the sale of its interest in Fabrix of $1.2 million, which represented adjustments to the Company’s share of Fabrix’ working capital and estimated transaction costs. In the nine months ended April 30, 2015, the Company recorded a gain on the sale of its interest in Fabrix of $76.9 million.

In June 2015, the Company received cash of $23.2 million that was included in “Receivable from sale of interest in Fabrix Systems Ltd.” at April 30, 2015.

The following tables present the balance of assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

	(in thousands)

Available-for-sale securities	$	—	$	12,873	$	—	$	12,873

(1) – quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

(2) – observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities

(3) – no observable pricing inputs in the market

At April 30, 2015 and July 31, 2014, the Company did not have any liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

At April 30, 2015 and July 31, 2014, the Company had $9.1 million and $9.5 million, respectively, in investments in hedge funds, of which less than $0.1 million and $0.1 million, respectively, were included in “Other current assets” and $9.1 million and $9.4 million, respectively, were included in “Investments” in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The Company’s investments in hedge funds are accounted for using the equity method or the cost method; therefore investments in hedge funds are not measured at fair value.

Fair Value of Other Financial Instruments

The estimated fair value of the Company’s other financial instruments was determined using available market information or other appropriate valuation methodologies. However, considerable judgment is required in interpreting these data to develop estimates of fair value. Consequently, the estimates are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that could be realized or would be paid in a current market exchange.

Cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and cash equivalents—short-term, other current assets, revolving credit loan payable, customer deposits, notes payable—current portion and other current liabilities. At April 30, 2015 and July 31, 2014, the carrying amount of these assets and liabilities approximated fair value because of the short period of time to maturity. The fair value estimates for cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash and cash equivalents—short-term were classified as Level 1 and other current assets, revolving credit loan payable, customer deposits, notes payable—current portion and other current liabilities were classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Restricted cash and cash equivalents—long-term. At July 31, 2014, the carrying amount of restricted cash and cash equivalents—long-term approximated fair value. The fair value was estimated based on the anticipated cash flows once the restrictions are removed, which was classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Other assets, Notes payable—long-term portion and other liabilities. At April 30, 2015 and July 31, 2014, the carrying amount of these assets and liabilities approximated fair value. The fair values were estimated based on the Company’s assumptions, which were classified as Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

The Company’s investments at April 30, 2015 and July 31, 2014 included investments in the equity of certain privately held entities and other investments that are accounted for at cost. It is not practicable to estimate the fair value of these investments because of the lack of a quoted market price for the shares of these entities, and the inability to estimate their fair value without incurring excessive cost. The carrying value of these investments was $3.6 million and $1.8 million at April 30, 2015 and July 31, 2014, respectively, which the Company believes was not impaired.

Dividend Payments

In the nine months ended April 30, 2015, the Company paid aggregate cash dividends of $1.85 per share on its Class A common stock and Class B common stock, or $43.2 million in total. The aggregate cash dividends included special dividends of $0.68 per share and $0.64 per share paid in November 2014 and January 2015, respectively. In June 2015, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a dividend of $0.18 per share for the third quarter of fiscal 2015 to holders of the Company’s Class A common stock and Class B common stock. The dividend will be paid on or about June 23, 2015 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on June 15, 2015.

In the nine months ended April 30, 2015, the Company contributed 70,843 shares of its Class B common stock to the Company’s 401(k) Plan for matching contributions. The Company’s cost for contributions to the 401(k) Plan was $1.3 million in the nine months ended April 30, 2015.

Restricted Stock

On March 11, 2015, the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors approved an equity grant of 0.3 million restricted shares of the Company’s Class B common stock to its employees, including executive officers. The shares vest 50% in January 2017 and 50% in July 2018. Unrecognized compensation expense related to these restricted shares on the March 11, 2015 grant date was $5.0 million based on the estimated fair value of the shares. The unrecognized compensation expense is recognized over the vesting period.

Note 6—Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income attributable to all classes of common stockholders of the Company by the weighted average number of shares of all classes of common stock outstanding during the applicable period. Diluted earnings per share is computed in the same manner as basic earnings per share, except that the number of shares is increased to include restricted stock still subject to risk of forfeiture and to assume exercise of potentially dilutive stock options using the treasury stock method, unless the effect of such increase is anti-dilutive.

10

The weighted-average number of shares used in the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share attributable to the Company’s common stockholders consists of the following:

	Three Months Ended April 30,				Nine Months Ended April 30,
	2015		2014		2015		2014
	(in thousands)
Basic weighted-average number of shares		23,034		22,680		22,867		21,763
Effect of dilutive securities:
Stock options		20		105		33		108
Non-vested restricted Class B common stock		414		238		359		1,022
Diluted weighted-average number of shares		23,468		23,023		23,259		22,893

The following outstanding stock options were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because the exercise price of the stock option was greater than the average market price of the Company’s stock during the period:

	Three Months Ended April 30,				Nine Months Ended April 30,
	2015		2014		2015		2014
	(in thousands)
Stock options excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share		15		98		166		61

Note 7—Revolving Credit Loan Payable

The Company’s subsidiary, IDT Telecom, Inc., entered into a credit agreement, dated July 12, 2012, with TD Bank, N.A. for a line of credit facility for up to a maximum principal amount of $25.0 million. IDT Telecom may use the proceeds to finance working capital requirements, acquisitions and for other general corporate purposes. The line of credit facility is secured by primarily all of IDT Telecom’s assets. The principal outstanding bears interest per annum, at the option of IDT Telecom, at either (a) the U.S. Prime Rate less 125 basis points, or (b) the LIBOR rate adjusted by the Regulation D maximum reserve requirement plus 150 basis points. Interest is payable monthly and all outstanding principal and any accrued and unpaid interest is due on the maturity date of January 31, 2017. At April 30, 2015 and July 31, 2014, there was nil and $13.0 million, respectively, outstanding under the facility. The principal outstanding at July 31, 2014 incurred interest at a rate of 1.65% per annum. In August 2014, IDT Telecom repaid the $13.0 million loan payable. The Company intends to continue to borrow under the facility from time to time. IDT Telecom pays a quarterly unused commitment fee of 0.375% per annum on the average daily balance of the unused portion of the $25.0 million commitment. IDT Telecom is required to comply with various affirmative and negative covenants as well as maintain certain financial targets and ratios during the term of the line of credit, including IDT Telecom may not pay any dividend on its capital stock and IDT Telecom’s aggregate loans and advances to affiliates or subsidiaries may not exceed $110.0 million. At April 30, 2015 and July 31, 2014, there were no amounts utilized for letters of credit under the line of credit, IDT Telecom was in compliance with all of the covenants, and IDT Telecom’s aggregate loans and advances to affiliates and subsidiaries was $74.4 million and $73.7 million, respectively.

Note 8—Severance Expense

In February and March 2015, the Company completed a reduction of its workforce, which is expected to result in a reduction of approximately 7% of its global compensation costs beginning in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015. The cost-cutting initiative is expected to reduce the Company’s current selling, general and administrative expense run rate by approximately $10 million per year. As a result of this reduction in headcount, the Company incurred severance expense of $6.2 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2015. Severance expense in the nine months ended April 30, 2015 also included $1.9 million due to a downsizing of certain IDT Telecom sales and administrative functions in Europe and the U.S in the first quarter of fiscal 2015. At April 30, 2015, there was accrued severance of $5.1 million included in “Accrued expenses” in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet for the February and March 2015 headcount reductions.

Note 10—Business Segment Information

The Company has two reportable business segments, Telecom Platform Services and Consumer Phone Services. Operating segments that are not reportable individually are included in All Other. The Company’s reportable segments are distinguished by types of service, customers and methods used to provide their services. The operating results of these business segments are regularly reviewed by the Company’s chief operating decision maker.

The Telecom Platform Services segment provides retail telecommunications and payment offerings as well as wholesale international long distance traffic termination. The Consumer Phone Services segment provides consumer local and long distance services in certain U.S. states. Telecom Platform Services and Consumer Phone Services comprise the IDT Telecom division. Beginning in the second quarter of fiscal 2015, All Other includes Zedge Holdings, Inc. (“Zedge”), which owns and operates a platform for mobile phone consumers interested in obtaining free, high quality mobile phone customization content including ringtones, wallpapers, notification sounds and app icons, as well as mobile games. Comparative results have been reclassified and restated as if Zedge was included in All Other in all periods presented. All Other also includes the Company’s real estate holdings and other, smaller, businesses. Until the sale of Fabrix in October 2014, All Other also included Fabrix, a software development company offering a cloud-based scale-out storage and computing platform optimized for big data, virtualization and media storage, processing and delivery. Corporate costs include certain services, such as compensation, consulting fees, treasury and accounts payable, tax and accounting services, human resources and payroll, corporate purchasing, corporate governance including Board of Directors’ fees, internal and external audit, investor relations, corporate insurance, corporate legal, business development, and other corporate-related general and administrative expenses including, among others, facilities costs, charitable contributions and travel, as well as depreciation expense on corporate assets. Corporate does not generate any revenues, nor does it incur any direct cost of revenues.

The accounting policies of the segments are the same as the accounting policies of the Company as a whole. The Company evaluates the performance of its business segments based primarily on income (loss) from operations. IDT Telecom depreciation and amortization are allocated to Telecom Platform Services and Consumer Phone Services because the related assets are not tracked separately by segment. There are no other significant asymmetrical allocations to segments.

Note 11—Legal Proceedings 

On May 5, 2004, the Company filed a complaint in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, seeking injunctive relief and damages against Tyco Group, S.A.R.L., Tyco Telecommunications (US) Inc. (f/k/a TyCom (US) Inc.), Tyco International, Ltd., Tyco International (US) Inc., and TyCom Ltd. (collectively “Tyco”). The Company alleged that Tyco breached a settlement agreement that it had entered into with the Company to resolve certain disputes and civil actions among the parties. The Company alleged that Tyco did not provide the Company, as required under the settlement agreement, free of charge and for the Company’s exclusive use, a 15-year indefeasible right to use four Wavelengths in Ring Configuration (as defined in the settlement agreement) on a global undersea fiber optic network that Tyco was deploying at that time. After extensive proceedings, including several decisions and appeals, the New York Court of Appeals affirmed a lower court decision to dismiss the Company’s claim and denied the Company’s motion for reargument of that decision. The Company is evaluating its options going forward.

In addition to the foregoing, the Company is subject to other legal proceedings that have arisen in the ordinary course of business and have not been finally adjudicated. Although there can be no assurance in this regard, the Company believes that none of the other legal proceedings to which the Company is a party will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.

Note 12—Commitments and Contingencies

Note 15—Recently Issued Accounting Standard Not Yet Adopted

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) and the International Accounting Standards Board jointly issued a comprehensive new revenue recognition standard that will supersede most of the current revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). The goals of the revenue recognition project were to clarify and converge the revenue recognition principles under U.S. GAAP and IFRS and to develop guidance that would streamline and enhance revenue recognition requirements. The Company will adopt this standard on August 1, 2017. Entities have the option of using either a full retrospective or modified retrospective approach for the adoption of the standard. The Company is evaluating the impact that the standard will have on its consolidated financial statements. In April 2015, the FASB proposed a one-year deferral of the effective date for the new revenue recognition standard to annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods therein.

Overview

We are a multinational holding company with operations primarily in the telecommunications and payment industries. We have two reportable business segments, Telecom Platform Services and Consumer Phone Services. Telecom Platform Services provides retail telecommunications and payment offerings as well as wholesale international long distance traffic termination. Consumer Phone Services provides consumer local and long distance services in certain U.S. states. Telecom Platform Services and Consumer Phone Services comprise our IDT Telecom division. Operating segments not reportable individually are included in All Other. All Other includes Zedge Holdings, Inc., or Zedge, which owns and operates a platform for mobile phone consumers interested in obtaining free, high quality mobile phone customization content including ringtones, wallpapers, notification sounds and app icons, as well as mobile games. All Other also includes our real estate holdings and other, smaller, businesses. Until the sale of Fabrix Systems Ltd., or Fabrix, in October 2014, All Other also included Fabrix, a software development company offering a cloud-based scale-out storage and computing platform optimized for big data, virtualization and media storage, processing and delivery.

Since our inception, we have derived the majority of our revenues and operating expenses from IDT Telecom’s businesses. IDT Telecom’s revenues represented 99.0% and 98.6% of our total revenues in the nine months ended April 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Telecom Platform Services, which represented 99.4% and 99.3% of IDT Telecom’s total revenues in the nine months ended April 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, markets and distributes multiple communications and payment services across four broad business verticals:

● Retail Communications provides international long-distance calling products primarily to foreign-born communities worldwide, with its core markets in the United States;

● Wholesale Termination Services is a global telecom carrier, terminating international long distance calls around the world for Tier 1 fixed line and mobile network operators, as well as other service providers;

● Payment Services provides payment offerings, including international airtime top-up and international money transfer sold over our Boss Revolution platform and other channels; and

● Hosted Platform Solutions provides customized communications services that leverage our proprietary networks, platforms and/or technology to cable companies and other service providers.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or U.S. GAAP. Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2014. The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses as well as the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Critical accounting policies are those that require application of management’s most subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of matters that are inherently uncertain and may change in subsequent periods. Our critical accounting policies include those related to the allowance for doubtful accounts, goodwill, valuation of long-lived and intangible assets, income taxes and regulatory agency fees, and IDT Telecom direct cost of revenues—disputed amounts. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. For additional discussion of our critical accounting policies, see our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2014.

Recently Issued Accounting Standard Not Yet Adopted

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, and the International Accounting Standards Board jointly issued a comprehensive new revenue recognition standard that will supersede most of the current revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards, or IFRS. The goals of the revenue recognition project were to clarify and converge the revenue recognition principles under U.S. GAAP and IFRS and to develop guidance that would streamline and enhance revenue recognition requirements. We will adopt this standard on August 1, 2017. Entities have the option of using either a full retrospective or modified retrospective approach for the adoption of the standard. We are evaluating the impact that the standard will have on our consolidated financial statements. In April 2015, the FASB proposed a one-year deferral of the effective date for the new revenue recognition standard to annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods therein.

Results of Operations

Three and Nine Months Ended April 30, 2015 Compared to Three and Nine Months Ended April 30, 2014

We evaluate the performance of our operating business segments based primarily on income (loss) from operations. Accordingly, the income and expense line items below income (loss) from operations are only included in our discussion of the consolidated results of operations.

Telecom Platform Services’ revenues, minutes of use and average revenue per minute for the three and nine months ended April 30, 2015 and 2014 consisted of the following:

Retail Communications’ revenue grew 5.7% and 6.1% in the three and nine months ended April 30, 2015, respectively, compared to the similar periods in fiscal 2014 due to increased penetration of Boss Revolution within our U.S. retail distribution network, partially offset by continued declines in sales of traditional disposable calling cards and retail sales in Europe and South America. The change in retail sales in Asia was not significant in the three and nine months ended April 30, 2015 compared to the similar periods in fiscal 2014. In fiscal 2014, we acquired the assets of an over-the-top messaging provider. We expect to introduce instant messaging and free peer-to-peer voice calling within the Boss Revolution app in the second half of calendar 2015. Retail Communications’ minutes of use decreased 2.9% and 0.1% in the three and nine months ended April 30, 2015, respectively, compared to the similar periods in fiscal 2014. Boss Revolution minutes of use increased in the three and nine months ended April 30, 2015 compared to the similar periods in fiscal 2014, but was more than offset by the decrease in traditional disposable calling cards’ minutes of use as well as the decrease in minutes of use in Europe and Asia. Retail Communications’ minutes of use in South America increased in the three and nine months ended April 30, 2015 compared to the similar periods in fiscal 2014. Retail Communications’ revenue comprised 46.6% and 42.7% of Telecom Platform Services’ revenue in the nine months ended April 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Wholesale Termination Services’ revenue decreased 15.7% and 12.7% in the three and nine months ended April 30, 2015, respectively, compared to the similar periods in fiscal 2014 because the traffic mix in the three and nine months ended April 30, 2015 continued to shift towards lower revenue per minute destinations compared to the similar periods in fiscal 2014. In addition, in the three and nine months ended April 30, 2015 compared to the similar periods in fiscal 2014, exchange-rate driven arbitrage pricing opportunities in Latin America continued to decline. Wholesale Termination Services’ minutes of use decreased 7.3% in the three months ended April 30, 2015 compared to the similar period in fiscal 2014 due to decreases in minutes of use from carrier sales and our web-based prepaid termination service. Wholesale Termination Services’ minutes of use decreased 0.2% in the nine months ended April 30, 2015 compared to the similar period in fiscal 2014 due to a decrease in minutes of use in our web-based prepaid termination service, partially offset by an increase in carrier sales minutes of use. Wholesale Termination Services’ revenue comprised 37.8% and 42.1% of Telecom Platform Services’ revenue in the nine months ended April 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Payment Services’ revenue increased 2.9% and 2.4% in the three and nine months ended April 30, 2015, respectively, compared to the similar periods in fiscal 2014 due to an increase in international and domestic airtime top-up revenue, as well as an increase in revenue from our international money transfer service. Future growth will be, in large part, contingent upon our ability to enter into new international airtime top-up partnerships with wireless providers, as well as continued growth of international airtime top-up volume within existing relationships and the introduction of new payment offerings through the Boss Revolution platform. In fiscal 2014, we initiated an international money transfer service on a limited basis over our Boss Revolution platform. At April 30, 2015, we had money transmitter licenses in 45 of the 46 states where they are required and we have applied, as well as in Puerto Rico and Washington, D.C. We expect to begin offering a mobile/web based money transfer service for Boss Revolution customers with access to credit cards or bank accounts later in calendar 2015. Payment Services’ revenue comprised 13.0% and 12.4% of Telecom Platform Services’ revenue in the nine months ended April 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Hosted Platform Solutions’ revenue declined 13.4% and 13.2% in the three and nine months ended April 30, 2015, respectively, compared to the similar periods in fiscal 2014. The decline was due to decreases in revenues from managed services and from our cable telephony business. Within our cable telephony business, we renewed multi-year contracts with key cable telephony customers in the second half of fiscal 2014, but at lower rates, reflecting the long-term decline in the underlying costs of hosted telephony services. In addition, several of our other hosted managed services operators are continuing to experience attrition in their subscriber customer base. Hosted Platform Solutions’ revenue comprised 2.6% and 2.8% of Telecom Platform Services’ revenue in the nine months ended April 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Hosted Platform Solutions’ minutes of use decreased 7.1% and 6.6% in the three and nine months ended April 30, 2015, respectively, compared to the similar periods in fiscal 2014, primarily as a result of the decline in minutes of use from managed services and cable telephony customers. In general, since our Hosted Platform Solutions business’ revenues and cash flows are driven far more by the number of existing subscribers in the form of a per-subscriber fee rather than by subscriber minutes of use, we do not view Hosted Platform Solutions minutes of use as a very meaningful metric for evaluating that business’ performance.

Consumer Phone Services’ revenues declined 20.1% and 21.7% in the three and nine months ended April 30, 2015, respectively, compared to the similar periods in fiscal 2014 as we continued to operate the business in harvest mode. This strategy has been in effect since calendar 2005 when the FCC decided to terminate the UNE-P pricing regime, which resulted in significantly inferior economics in the operating model for this business. The customer base for our bundled, unlimited local and long distance services business was approximately 5,300 as of April 30, 2015 compared to 6,600 as of April 30, 2014. We currently offer local service in the following 11 states: New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Delaware, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, West Virginia, Maine, Rhode Island and California. In addition, the customer base for our long distance-only services was approximately 24,000 as of April 30, 2015 compared to 30,300 as of April 30, 2014. We anticipate that Consumer Phone Services’ customer base and revenues will continue to decline. Minutes of use relating to our Consumer Phone Services segment is not tracked as a meaningful business metric as the domestic traffic generated by this segment is not carried on our network, and the international traffic generated by this segment, though carried on our own network, is insignificant.

Direct Cost of Revenues. Direct cost of revenues in Telecom Platform Services decreased in the three and nine months ended April 30, 2015 compared to the similar periods in fiscal 2014, which reflects the declines in Telecom Platform Services’ revenues. Direct cost of revenues as a percentage of revenues in Telecom Platform Services decreased 60 basis points in the three months ended April 30, 2015 compared to the similar period in fiscal 2014 primarily because of a non-recurring contractual expiration of unused calling card minutes from certain private label calling card offerings. Direct cost of revenues as a percentage of revenues in Telecom Platform Services increased 10 basis points in the nine months ended April 30, 2015 compared to the similar period in fiscal 2014 primarily because of the loss of revenue from the relatively high margin exchange-rate driven arbitrage pricing opportunities in Latin American, the decline in margin contribution from the cable telephony business, and pricing pressure on airtime top-up offerings.

19

Direct cost of revenues in our Consumer Phone Services segment decreased the three and nine months ended April 30, 2015 compared to the similar periods in fiscal 2014 primarily as a result of the declining customer base.

Selling, General and Administrative. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses in our Telecom Platform Services segment in the three and nine months ended April 30, 2015 compared to the similar periods in fiscal 2014 was primarily due to increases in marketing and advertising costs, employee compensation and internal commissions. The employee compensation increase reflects annual payroll increases effective in the first quarter of fiscal 2015. The increase in internal commissions was due to the expansion of our retail direct sales force in the U.S. As a percentage of Telecom Platform Services’ revenue, Telecom Platform Services’ selling, general and administrative expenses increased to 12.8% in the three and nine months ended April 30, 2015 from 12.2% in the three and nine months ended April 30, 2014.

Selling, general and administrative expenses in our Consumer Phone Services segment decreased in the three and nine months ended April 30, 2015 compared to the similar periods in fiscal 2014 as the cost structure for this segment continued to be right-sized to the needs of its declining revenue base.

Severance expense. In February and March 2015, we completed a reduction of our workforce, which is expected to result in a reduction of approximately 7% of our global compensation costs beginning in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015. As a result, IDT Telecom incurred severance expense of $5.6 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2015. In addition, severance expense in the nine months ended April 30, 2015 included $1.9 million due to a downsizing of certain Telecom Platform Services’ sales and administrative functions in Europe and the U.S.

Other Operating Gain. The Telecom Platform Services segment’s income from operations in the nine months ended April 30, 2014 included a gain of $0.7 million related to a legal matter.

Currently, we report aggregate results for all of our operating businesses other than IDT Telecom in All Other. Beginning in the second quarter of fiscal 2015, Zedge is included in All Other. Comparative results have been reclassified and restated as if Zedge was included in All Other in all periods presented. In addition, Fabrix was included in All Other until it was sold in October 2014, therefore the results of operations only includes two months in fiscal 2015 compared to three and nine months in fiscal 2014.

Gain on Sale of Interest in Fabrix Systems Ltd. On October 8, 2014, we completed the sale of our interest in Fabrix to Telefonaktiebolget LM Ericsson (publ), or Ericsson. The final sale price for 100% of the shares in Fabrix was $95 million in cash, excluding transaction costs and working capital and other adjustments. We owned approximately 78% of Fabrix on a fully diluted basis. Our share of the sale price was $68.1 million, after reflecting the impact of working capital and other adjustments. We and the other shareholders placed $13.0 million of the proceeds in escrow for the resolution of post-closing claims that may arise. Any unclaimed escrow balance will be released in two tranches in October 2015 and April 2016. In the three months ended April 30, 2015, we recorded gain on the sale of our interest in Fabrix of $1.2 million, which represented adjustments to our share of Fabrix’ working capital and estimated transaction costs. In the nine months ended April 30, 2015, we recorded a gain on the sale of our interest in Fabrix of $76.9 million.

Other Operating Gain. In the nine months ended April 30, 2014, we received proceeds from insurance of $0.6 million related to water damage to portions of our building and improvements at 520 Broad Street, Newark, New Jersey. The damage occurred in a prior period. We recorded a gain of $0.6 million from this insurance claim.

Corporate costs include compensation, consulting fees, treasury and accounts payable, tax and accounting services, human resources and payroll, corporate purchasing, corporate governance including Board of Directors’ fees, internal and external audit, investor relations, corporate insurance, corporate legal, business development, and other corporate-related general and administrative expenses, including, among others, facilities costs, charitable contributions and travel, as well as depreciation expense on corporate assets. Corporate does not generate any revenues, nor does it incur any direct cost of revenues.

General and Administrative. The decrease in Corporate general and administrative expenses in the three months ended April 30, 2015 compared to the similar period in fiscal 2014 was primarily due to decreases in the charitable contributions accrual and employee medical benefits expense. The decrease in Corporate general and administrative expenses in the nine months ended April 30, 2015 compared to the similar period in fiscal 2014 was primarily due to decreases in stock-based compensation, the charitable contributions accrual and legal fees. Corporate general and administrative expenses in the three and nine months ended April 30, 2015 and 2014 are net of amounts billed to our former subsidiaries Genie Energy Ltd., or Genie, which was spun-off in October 2011, and Straight Path Communications Inc., or Straight Path, which was spun-off in July 2013. The fees charged to Genie, net of amounts charged by Genie to us, were $0.6 million and $0.6 million in the three months ended April 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and $2.2 million and $2.3 million in the nine months ended April 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The fees charged to Straight Path were nil and $0.2 million in the three months ended April 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and $1.1 million and $0.8 million in the nine months ended April 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. As a percentage of our total consolidated revenues, Corporate general and administrative expenses was 0.7% and 0.8% in the three months ended April 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and 0.7% and 0.9% in the nine months ended April 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Severance expense. In February and March 2015, we completed a reduction of our workforce, which is expected to result in a reduction of approximately 7% of our global compensation costs beginning in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015. As a result, Corporate incurred severance expense of $0.6 million in the three and nine months ended April 30, 2015.

Other Operating Loss. Corporate’s loss from operations in the three and nine months ended April 30, 2015 included a loss of $1.5 million related to legal matters.

Consolidated

In February and March 2015, we completed a reduction of our workforce, which is expected to result in a reduction of approximately 7% of our global compensation costs beginning in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015. The cost-cutting initiative is expected to reduce our current selling, general and administrative expense run rate by approximately $10 million per year. As a result of this reduction in headcount, we incurred severance expense of $6.2 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2015. In addition, severance expense in the nine months ended April 30, 2015 included $1.9 million due to a downsizing of certain IDT Telecom sales and administrative functions in Europe and the U.S in the first quarter of fiscal 2015.

The following is a discussion of our consolidated stock-based compensation expense, and our consolidated income and expense line items below income (loss) from operations.

Stock-Based Compensation Expense. Stock-based compensation expense included in consolidated selling, general and administrative expenses was $1.0 million and $0.8 million in the three months ended April 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and $4.0 million and $4.9 million in the nine months ended April 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. On March 11, 2015, the Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors approved an equity grant of 0.3 million restricted shares of our Class B common stock to our employees, including executive officers. The shares vest 50% in January 2017 and 50% in July 2018. At April 30, 2015, unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock-based compensation, including stock options and restricted stock, was an aggregate of $9.1 million. The unrecognized compensation cost is expected to be recognized over the remaining vesting period that ends in 2018.

Income Taxes. The $76.9 million gain on the sale of our interest in Fabrix in the nine months ended April 30, 2015 was recorded by a wholly-owned non-U.S. subsidiary. The gain is not taxable in the subsidiary’s tax domicile and is not subject to U.S. tax until repatriated. There are no current plans to repatriate the proceeds of the sale. The decline in income tax expense in the three and nine months ended April 30, 2015 compared to the similar periods in fiscal 2014 was primarily due to the decrease in income before income taxes excluding the gain on the sale of our interest in Fabrix in the three and nine months ended April 30, 2015 compared to the similar periods in fiscal 2014.

Net Income Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests. The decrease in the net income attributable to noncontrolling interests in the three months ended April 30, 2015 compared to the similar period in fiscal 2014 was due to the deconsolidation of Fabrix in October 2014. The decrease in the net income attributable to noncontrolling interests in the nine months ended April 30, 2015 compared to the similar period in fiscal 2014 was due to the decrease in net income of certain IDT Telecom subsidiaries, the increase in Fabrix’ net loss and the change in Zedge’s results of operations from net income to net loss.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

General

We currently expect our cash from operations in the next twelve months and the balance of cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities that we held on April 30, 2015 to be sufficient to meet our currently anticipated working capital and capital expenditure requirements during the twelve month period ending April 30, 2016.

At April 30, 2015, we had cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of $146.1 million and a deficit in working capital (current liabilities in excess of current assets) of $0.1 million. At April 30, 2015, we also had $9.1 million in investments in hedge funds, of which less than $0.1 million was included in “Other current assets” and $9.1 million was included in “Investments” in our consolidated balance sheet.

We treat unrestricted cash and cash equivalents held by IDT Payment Services and IDT Financial Services Ltd. as substantially restricted and unavailable for other purposes. At April 30, 2015, “Cash and cash equivalents” in our consolidated balance sheet included an aggregate of $9.5 million held by IDT Payment Services and IDT Financial Services Ltd. that was unavailable for other purposes.

At April 30, 2015, we had restricted cash and cash equivalents of $73.6 million, all of which was included in “Restricted cash and cash equivalents—short term” in our consolidated balance sheet. Our restricted cash and cash equivalents primarily include restricted balances pursuant to banking regulatory and other requirements and customer deposits related to IDT Financial Services Ltd., our Gibraltar-based bank.

Our cash flow from operations varies significantly from quarter to quarter and from year to year, depending on our operating results and the timing of operating cash receipts and payments, specifically trade accounts receivable and trade accounts payable.

Our Separation and Distribution Agreement with Straight Path includes, among other things, our obligation to reimburse Straight Path for the payment of any liabilities of Straight Path arising or related to the period prior to the spin-off. In the nine months ended April 30, 2015, we paid $2.1 million in connection with this obligation. At April 30, 2015, our estimated liability for this obligation was $0.9 million.

Our capital expenditures were $22.8 million and $12.4 million in the nine months ended April 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The increase was primarily due to expenditures for the renovations of the first four floors of our building located at 520 Broad Street, Newark, New Jersey. We currently anticipate that total capital expenditures for the twelve month period ending April 30, 2016 will be approximately $17.5 million, which includes the remaining expected expenditures for the renovations of 520 Broad Street. In April and May 2015, we moved our Newark operations back into our building at 520 Broad Street and vacated our leased office space at 550 Broad Street. We expect to fund our capital expenditures with our net cash provided by operating activities and cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities on hand.

On October 8, 2014, we completed the sale of our interest in Fabrix to Ericsson. The final sale price for 100% of the shares in Fabrix was $95 million in cash, excluding transaction costs and working capital and other adjustments. We owned approximately 78% of Fabrix on a fully diluted basis. Our share of the sale price was $68.1 million, after reflecting the impact of working capital and other adjustments. At April 30, 2015, we had received cash of $36.4 million and had aggregate receivables of $31.7 million, which was classified as “Receivable from sale of interest in Fabrix Systems Ltd.” in our consolidated balance sheet. We and the other shareholders placed $13.0 million of the proceeds in escrow for the resolution of post-closing claims that may arise. Any unclaimed escrow balance will be released in two tranches in October 2015 and April 2016. In the nine months ended April 30, 2015, we recorded a gain on the sale of our interest in Fabrix of $76.9 million. In June 2015, we received cash of $23.2 million that was included in “Receivable from sale of interest in Fabrix Systems Ltd.” at April 30, 2015.

24

In the nine months ended April 30, 2015 and 2014, we used cash of $0.1 million and $0.4 million, respectively, for additional investments.

We received $0.1 million and $1.0 million in the nine months ended April 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, from the sale and redemption of certain of our investments, including investments in hedge funds.

Proceeds from insurance of $0.6 million in the nine months ended April 30, 2014 related to water damage in our building at 520 Broad Street, Newark, New Jersey that occurred in a prior period. We recorded a gain of $0.6 million from this insurance claim in the nine months ended April 30, 2014.

Purchases of marketable securities were $35.5 million and $15.7 million in the nine months ended April 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Proceeds from maturities and sales of marketable securities were $16.8 million and $13.0 million in the nine months ended April 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Financing Activities

In the nine months ended April 30, 2015, we paid cash dividends of $1.85 per share on our Class A common stock and Class B common stock, or $43.2 million in total. In the nine months ended April 30, 2014, we paid cash dividends of $0.42 per share on our Class A common stock and Class B common stock, or $9.7 million in total. In June 2015, our Board of Directors declared a dividend of $0.18 per share for the third quarter of fiscal 2015 to holders of our Class A common stock and Class B common stock. The dividend will be paid on or about June 23, 2015 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on June 15, 2015.

We distributed cash of $1.5 million and $1.3 million in the nine months ended April 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, to the holders of noncontrolling interests in certain of our subsidiaries.

In August 2013, both Fabrix and a wholly-owned subsidiary of ours purchased shares of Fabrix for aggregate cash of $1.1 million. The shares were purchased from holders of noncontrolling interests in Fabrix representing 2.8% of the equity in Fabrix.

We received proceeds from the exercise of our stock options of $3.3 million and $0.6 million in the nine months ended April 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Our subsidiary, IDT Telecom, Inc., entered into a credit agreement, dated July 12, 2012, with TD Bank, N.A. for a line of credit facility for up to a maximum principal amount of $25.0 million. IDT Telecom may use the proceeds to finance working capital requirements, acquisitions and for other general corporate purposes. The line of credit facility is secured by primarily all of IDT Telecom’s assets. The principal outstanding bears interest per annum, at the option of IDT Telecom, at either (a) the U.S. Prime Rate less 125 basis points, or (b) the LIBOR rate adjusted by the Regulation D maximum reserve requirement plus 150 basis points. Interest is payable monthly and all outstanding principal and any accrued and unpaid interest is due on the maturity date of January 31, 2017. In the nine months ended April 30, 2015 and 2014, IDT Telecom borrowed nil and $43.0 million, respectively, and IDT Telecom repaid $13.0 million and $51.1 million, respectively. We intend to continue to borrow under the facility from time to time. IDT Telecom pays a quarterly unused commitment fee of 0.375% per annum on the average daily balance of the unused portion of the $25.0 million commitment. IDT Telecom is required to comply with various affirmative and negative covenants as well as maintain certain financial targets and ratios during the term of the line of credit, including IDT Telecom may not pay any dividend on its capital stock and IDT Telecom’s aggregate loans and advances to affiliates or subsidiaries may not exceed $110.0 million. At April 30, 2015, there were no amounts borrowed or utilized for letters of credit under the line of credit, IDT Telecom was in compliance with all of the covenants, and IDT Telecom’s aggregate loans and advances to affiliates and subsidiaries was $74.4 million.

Repayments of other borrowings were $0.2 million in both the nine months ended April 30, 2015 and 2014.

In the nine months ended April 30, 2015 and 2014, we paid $0.3 million and $1.0 million, respectively, to repurchase 16,330 and 52,288 shares of Class B common stock, respectively, that were tendered by employees of ours to satisfy the employees’ tax withholding obligations in connection with the lapsing of restrictions on awards of restricted stock. Such shares are repurchased by us based on their fair market value on the trading day immediately prior to the vesting date.

We have a stock repurchase program that authorized the repurchase of up to an aggregate of 8.3 million shares of our Class B common stock. In the nine months ended April 30, 2015, we repurchased 29,675 shares of Class B common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $0.4 million. There were no repurchases under the program in the nine months ended April 30, 2014. At April 30, 2015, 5.0 million shares remained available for repurchase under the stock repurchase program.

Changes in Trade Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Gross trade accounts receivable decreased to $56.7 million at April 30, 2015 from $80.8 million at July 31, 2014 primarily due to a $19.4 million decrease in IDT Telecom’s gross trade accounts receivable balance and due to the sale of our interest in Fabrix. At July 31, 2014, Fabrix’ gross trade accounts receivable balance was $4.8 million. The decrease in IDT Telecom’s gross trade accounts receivable balance was primarily due to collections in the nine months ended April 30, 2015 in excess of amounts billed during the period, accounts receivable written-off and the effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

The allowance for doubtful accounts as a percentage of gross trade accounts receivable decreased to 10.5% at April 30, 2015 from 14.2% at July 31, 2014 as a result of accounts receivable write-offs in the nine months ended April 30, 2015 that reduced the IDT Telecom allowance for doubtful accounts and gross trade accounts receivable balances.

(1) The above table does not include an aggregate of $11.0 million in performance bonds due to the uncertainty of the amount and/or timing of any such payments.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any “off-balance sheet arrangements,” as defined in relevant SEC regulations that are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources, other than the following.

In connection with our spin-off of Genie Energy Ltd., or Genie, in October 2011, we and Genie entered into various agreements prior to the spin-off including a Separation and Distribution Agreement to effect the separation and provide a framework for our relationship with Genie after the spin-off, and a Tax Separation Agreement, which sets forth the responsibilities of us and Genie with respect to, among other things, liabilities for federal, state, local and foreign taxes for periods before and including the spin-off, the preparation and filing of tax returns for such periods and disputes with taxing authorities regarding taxes for such periods. Pursuant to the Separation and Distribution Agreement, among other things, we indemnify Genie and Genie indemnifies us for losses related to the failure of the other to pay, perform or otherwise discharge, any of the liabilities and obligations set forth in the agreement. Pursuant to the Tax Separation Agreement, among other things, we indemnify Genie from all liability for taxes of ours with respect to any taxable period, and Genie indemnifies us from all liability for taxes of Genie and its subsidiaries with respect to any taxable period, including, without limitation, the ongoing tax audits related to Genie’s business.

In connection with our spin-off of Straight Path Communications Inc., or Straight Path, in July 2013, we and Straight Path entered into various agreements prior to the spin-off including a Separation and Distribution Agreement to effect the separation and provide a framework for our relationship with Straight Path after the spin-off, and a Tax Separation Agreement, which sets forth the responsibilities of us and Straight Path with respect to, among other things, liabilities for federal, state, local and foreign taxes for periods before and including the spin-off, the preparation and filing of tax returns for such periods and disputes with taxing authorities regarding taxes for such periods. Pursuant to the Separation and Distribution Agreement, we indemnify Straight Path and Straight Path indemnifies us for losses related to the failure of the other to pay, perform or otherwise discharge, any of the liabilities and obligations set forth in the agreement. Pursuant to the Tax Separation Agreement, we indemnify Straight Path from all liability for taxes of Straight Path or any of its subsidiaries or relating to the Straight Path business with respect to taxable periods ending on or before the spin-off, from all liability for taxes of ours, other than Straight Path and its subsidiaries, for any taxable period, and from all liability for taxes due to the spin-off.

26

IDT Payment Services and IDT Telecom have performance bonds issued through third parties for the benefit of various states in order to comply with the states’ financial requirements for money remittance licenses and telecommunications resellers, respectively. At April 30, 2015, we had aggregate performance bonds of $11.0 million outstanding.

Item 3.        Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risks

Foreign Currency Risk

Revenues from our international operations were 30% of our consolidated revenues for both the nine months ended April 30, 2015 and 2014. A significant portion of these revenues is in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar. Our foreign currency exchange risk is somewhat mitigated by our ability to offset a portion of these non U.S. Dollar-denominated revenues with operating expenses that are paid in the same currencies. While the impact from fluctuations in foreign exchange rates affects our revenue and expenses denominated in foreign currencies, the net amount of our exposure to foreign currency exchange rate changes at the end of each reporting period is generally not material.

Investment Risk

In addition to, but separate from our primary business, we hold a portion of our assets in marketable securities and hedge funds for strategic and speculative purposes. At April 30, 2015, the carrying value of our marketable securities and investments in hedge funds was $31.4 million and $9.1 million, respectively. Investments in marketable securities and hedge funds carry a degree of risk, and depend to a great extent on correct assessments of the future course of price movements of securities and other instruments. There can be no assurance that our investment managers will be able to accurately predict these price movements. The securities markets have in recent years been characterized by great volatility and unpredictability. Accordingly, the value of our investments may go down as well as up and we may not receive the amounts originally invested upon redemption.

Item 4.        Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of April 30, 2015.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended April 30, 2015 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

On December 17, 2008, our Board of Directors (i) approved a one-for-three reverse stock split of all classes of our common stock which was effective on February 24, 2009, and (ii) amended the stock repurchase program to increase the aggregate number of shares of our Class B common stock and common stock, without regard to class, that we are authorized to repurchase from the 3.3 million shares that remained available for repurchase to 8.3 million shares.

Legal Proceedings

Note 11—Legal Proceedings 

On May 5, 2004, the Company filed a complaint in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, seeking injunctive relief and damages against Tyco Group, S.A.R.L., Tyco Telecommunications (US) Inc. (f/k/a TyCom (US) Inc.), Tyco International, Ltd., Tyco International (US) Inc., and TyCom Ltd. (collectively “Tyco”). The Company alleged that Tyco breached a settlement agreement that it had entered into with the Company to resolve certain disputes and civil actions among the parties. The Company alleged that Tyco did not provide the Company, as required under the settlement agreement, free of charge and for the Company’s exclusive use, a 15-year indefeasible right to use four Wavelengths in Ring Configuration (as defined in the settlement agreement) on a global undersea fiber optic network that Tyco was deploying at that time. After extensive proceedings, including several decisions and appeals, the New York Court of Appeals affirmed a lower court decision to dismiss the Company’s claim and denied the Company’s motion for reargument of that decision. The Company is evaluating its options going forward.

In addition to the foregoing, the Company is subject to other legal proceedings that have arisen in the ordinary course of business and have not been finally adjudicated. Although there can be no assurance in this regard, the Company believes that none of the other legal proceedings to which the Company is a party will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.

Earnings Per Share

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

Earnings Per Share

Note 6—Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income attributable to all classes of common stockholders of the Company by the weighted average number of shares of all classes of common stock outstanding during the applicable period. Diluted earnings per share is computed in the same manner as basic earnings per share, except that the number of shares is increased to include restricted stock still subject to risk of forfeiture and to assume exercise of potentially dilutive stock options using the treasury stock method, unless the effect of such increase is anti-dilutive.

The weighted-average number of shares used in the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share attributable to the Company’s common stockholders consists of the following:

	Three Months Ended April 30,				Nine Months Ended April 30,
	2015		2014		2015		2014
	(in thousands)
Basic weighted-average number of shares		23,034		22,680		22,867		21,763
Effect of dilutive securities:
Stock options		20		105		33		108
Non-vested restricted Class B common stock		414		238		359		1,022
Diluted weighted-average number of shares		23,468		23,023		23,259		22,893

The following outstanding stock options were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because the exercise price of the stock option was greater than the average market price of the Company’s stock during the period:

	Three Months Ended April 30,				Nine Months Ended April 30,
	2015		2014		2015		2014

Revolving Credit Loan Payable

Note 7—Revolving Credit Loan Payable

The Company’s subsidiary, IDT Telecom, Inc., entered into a credit agreement, dated July 12, 2012, with TD Bank, N.A. for a line of credit facility for up to a maximum principal amount of $25.0 million. IDT Telecom may use the proceeds to finance working capital requirements, acquisitions and for other general corporate purposes. The line of credit facility is secured by primarily all of IDT Telecom’s assets. The principal outstanding bears interest per annum, at the option of IDT Telecom, at either (a) the U.S. Prime Rate less 125 basis points, or (b) the LIBOR rate adjusted by the Regulation D maximum reserve requirement plus 150 basis points. Interest is payable monthly and all outstanding principal and any accrued and unpaid interest is due on the maturity date of January 31, 2017. At April 30, 2015 and July 31, 2014, there was nil and $13.0 million, respectively, outstanding under the facility. The principal outstanding at July 31, 2014 incurred interest at a rate of 1.65% per annum. In August 2014, IDT Telecom repaid the $13.0 million loan payable. The Company intends to continue to borrow under the facility from time to time. IDT Telecom pays a quarterly unused commitment fee of 0.375% per annum on the average daily balance of the unused portion of the $25.0 million commitment. IDT Telecom is required to comply with various affirmative and negative covenants as well as maintain certain financial targets and ratios during the term of the line of credit, including IDT Telecom may not pay any dividend on its capital stock and IDT Telecom’s aggregate loans and advances to affiliates or subsidiaries may not exceed $110.0 million. At April 30, 2015 and July 31, 2014, there were no amounts utilized for letters of credit under the line of credit, IDT Telecom was in compliance with all of the covenants, and IDT Telecom’s aggregate loans and advances to affiliates and subsidiaries was $74.4 million and $73.7 million, respectively.

Severance Expense [Abstract]

Severance Expense

Note 8—Severance Expense

In February and March 2015, the Company completed a reduction of its workforce, which is expected to result in a reduction of approximately 7% of its global compensation costs beginning in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015. The cost-cutting initiative is expected to reduce the Company’s current selling, general and administrative expense run rate by approximately $10 million per year. As a result of this reduction in headcount, the Company incurred severance expense of $6.2 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2015. Severance expense in the nine months ended April 30, 2015 also included $1.9 million due to a downsizing of certain IDT Telecom sales and administrative functions in Europe and the U.S in the first quarter of fiscal 2015. At April 30, 2015, there was accrued severance of $5.1 million included in “Accrued expenses” in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet for the February and March 2015 headcount reductions.

Business Segment Information [Abstract]

Business Segment Information

Note 10—Business Segment Information

The Company has two reportable business segments, Telecom Platform Services and Consumer Phone Services. Operating segments that are not reportable individually are included in All Other. The Company’s reportable segments are distinguished by types of service, customers and methods used to provide their services. The operating results of these business segments are regularly reviewed by the Company’s chief operating decision maker.

The Telecom Platform Services segment provides retail telecommunications and payment offerings as well as wholesale international long distance traffic termination. The Consumer Phone Services segment provides consumer local and long distance services in certain U.S. states. Telecom Platform Services and Consumer Phone Services comprise the IDT Telecom division. Beginning in the second quarter of fiscal 2015, All Other includes Zedge Holdings, Inc. (“Zedge”), which owns and operates a platform for mobile phone consumers interested in obtaining free, high quality mobile phone customization content including ringtones, wallpapers, notification sounds and app icons, as well as mobile games. Comparative results have been reclassified and restated as if Zedge was included in All Other in all periods presented. All Other also includes the Company’s real estate holdings and other, smaller, businesses. Until the sale of Fabrix in October 2014, All Other also included Fabrix, a software development company offering a cloud-based scale-out storage and computing platform optimized for big data, virtualization and media storage, processing and delivery. Corporate costs include certain services, such as compensation, consulting fees, treasury and accounts payable, tax and accounting services, human resources and payroll, corporate purchasing, corporate governance including Board of Directors’ fees, internal and external audit, investor relations, corporate insurance, corporate legal, business development, and other corporate-related general and administrative expenses including, among others, facilities costs, charitable contributions and travel, as well as depreciation expense on corporate assets. Corporate does not generate any revenues, nor does it incur any direct cost of revenues.

The accounting policies of the segments are the same as the accounting policies of the Company as a whole. The Company evaluates the performance of its business segments based primarily on income (loss) from operations. IDT Telecom depreciation and amortization are allocated to Telecom Platform Services and Consumer Phone Services because the related assets are not tracked separately by segment. There are no other significant asymmetrical allocations to segments.

Operating results for the business segments of the Company are as follows:

Recently Issued Accounting Standard Not Yet Adopted

Note 15—Recently Issued Accounting Standard Not Yet Adopted

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) and the International Accounting Standards Board jointly issued a comprehensive new revenue recognition standard that will supersede most of the current revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). The goals of the revenue recognition project were to clarify and converge the revenue recognition principles under U.S. GAAP and IFRS and to develop guidance that would streamline and enhance revenue recognition requirements. The Company will adopt this standard on August 1, 2017. Entities have the option of using either a full retrospective or modified retrospective approach for the adoption of the standard. The Company is evaluating the impact that the standard will have on its consolidated financial statements. In April 2015, the FASB proposed a one-year deferral of the effective date for the new revenue recognition standard to annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods therein.

(1) – quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

(2) – observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities

(3) – no observable pricing inputs in the market

At April 30, 2015 and July 31, 2014, the Company did not have any liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

At April 30, 2015 and July 31, 2014, the Company had $9.1 million and $9.5 million, respectively, in investments in hedge funds, of which less than $0.1 million and $0.1 million, respectively, were included in “Other current assets” and $9.1 million and $9.4 million, respectively, were included in “Investments” in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The Company’s investments in hedge funds are accounted for using the equity method or the cost method; therefore investments in hedge funds are not measured at fair value.

Fair Value of Other Financial Instruments

The estimated fair value of the Company’s other financial instruments was determined using available market information or other appropriate valuation methodologies. However, considerable judgment is required in interpreting these data to develop estimates of fair value. Consequently, the estimates are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that could be realized or would be paid in a current market exchange.

Cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and cash equivalents—short-term, other current assets, revolving credit loan payable, customer deposits, notes payable—current portion and other current liabilities. At April 30, 2015 and July 31, 2014, the carrying amount of these assets and liabilities approximated fair value because of the short period of time to maturity. The fair value estimates for cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash and cash equivalents—short-term were classified as Level 1 and other current assets, revolving credit loan payable, customer deposits, notes payable—current portion and other current liabilities were classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Restricted cash and cash equivalents—long-term. At July 31, 2014, the carrying amount of restricted cash and cash equivalents—long-term approximated fair value. The fair value was estimated based on the anticipated cash flows once the restrictions are removed, which was classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Other assets, Notes payable—long-term portion and other liabilities. At April 30, 2015 and July 31, 2014, the carrying amount of these assets and liabilities approximated fair value. The fair values were estimated based on the Company’s assumptions, which were classified as Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

The Company’s investments at April 30, 2015 and July 31, 2014 included investments in the equity of certain privately held entities and other investments that are accounted for at cost. It is not practicable to estimate the fair value of these investments because of the lack of a quoted market price for the shares of these entities, and the inability to estimate their fair value without incurring excessive cost. The carrying value of these investments was $3.6 million and $1.8 million at April 30, 2015 and July 31, 2014, respectively, which the Company believes was not impaired.
