NOTE
2 – ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Use
of Estimates
The
preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
New
Accounting Pronouncements
In
April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-08, “Presentation
of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant and Equipment (Topic 360).” ASU 2014-08 amends the requirements
for reporting discontinued operations and requires additional disclosures about discontinued operations. Under the new guidance,
only disposals representing a strategic shift in operations or that have a major effect on the Company’s operations and
financial results should be presented as discontinued operations. This new accounting guidance is effective for annual periods
beginning after December 15, 2014. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2014-08 on the Company’s
results of operations or financial condition.
In
May 2014, the (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with
Customers, which provides a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts
with customers and will supersede most current revenue recognition guidance. The standard’s core principle is that a company
will recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration
to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 will be effective for the Company
in the first quarter of its fiscal year ending June 30, 2018. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact
of adoption of this ASU on its consolidated financial statements.
In
June 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-12, Compensation — Stock Compensation (Topic 718), Accounting
for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service
Period (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force) (ASU 2014-12). The guidance applies to all reporting entities
that grant their employees share-based payments in which the terms of the award provide that a performance target that affects
vesting could be achieved after the requisite service period. The amendments require that a performance target that affects vesting
and that could be achieved after the requisite service period be treated as a performance condition. For all entities, the amendments
in this Update are effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015.
Earlier adoption is permitted. The effective date is the same for both public business entities and all other entities. The Company
is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2014-12 on the Company’s results of operations or financial condition.
In
August 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern
(Subtopic 205-40), Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entities Ability to Continue as a Going Concern(ASU 2014-15). The
guidance in ASU 2014-15 sets forth management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s
ability to continue as a going concern as well as required disclosures. ASU 2014-15 indicates that, when preparing financial statements
for interim and annual financial statements, management should evaluate whether conditions or events, in the aggregate, raise
substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern for one year from the date the financial statements
are issued or are available to be issued. This evaluation should include consideration of conditions and events that are either
known or are reasonably knowable at the date the financial statements are issued or are available to be issued, as well as whether
it is probable that management’s plans to address the substantial doubt will be implemented and, if so, whether it is probable
that the plans will alleviate the substantial doubt. ASU 2014-15 is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016,
and interim periods and annual periods thereafter. Early application is permitted. The adoption of this guidance is not expected
to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In
January 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-01, Income Statement – Extraordinary and Unusual items
(Subtopic 225-20), Simplifying Income Statement Presentation by Eliminating the Concept of Extraordinary Items (ASU 2015-01).
The amendment eliminates from U.S. GAAP the concept of extraordinary items. This guidance is effective for the Company in the
first quarter of fiscal 2017. Early adoption is permitted and allows the Company to apply the amendment prospectively or retrospectively.
The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
NOTE
3 – EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic
earnings per share are computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.
Diluted earnings per share is computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock plus the effect of dilutive
potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method. Dilutive potential common shares include
outstanding stock options, warrants, and stock awards. All options and warrants were excluded from the diluted loss per share
calculation due to their anti-dilution effect.
The
following potential dilutive shares were excluded from the shares used to calculate diluted earnings per share as their inclusion
would be anti-dilutive.

NOTE
14 – CONTINGENCIES
As
previously disclosed, on July 25, 2014, a Federal Securities class action lawsuit entitled Rand-Heart of New York, Inc. v.
NetSol Technologies, Inc., Najeeb Ghauri, Naeem Ghauri, and Salim Ghauri was filed in Central District of California. The
action generally alleges the Company violated certain federal securities laws by allegedly issuing false and misleading statements
regarding the Company’s product and business prospect of that product. Specifically, the complaint alleges the next-generation
product did not exist as of November 8, 2011 and there was no reasonable basis for stating that there was a growing interest or
serious interest in the product; the product had been gaining momentum or that it had been well received. The plaintiff has filed
an amended consolidated complaint including the previous allegations. On January 21, 2015, defendants filed a motion to dismiss
the lawsuit stating that the plaintiff’s complaint fails to sufficiently plead the allegations and essential elements of
the claims. Following responsive pleadings by plaintiff and defendant, the motion is scheduled to be heard on March 16, 2015.
The Company believes the lawsuit to be meritless and intends to vigorously defend the action including but not limited to motions
to dismiss. The Company has engaged counsel and has liability insurance. Given the early stage of the litigation, however, at
this time the Company is unable to form a professional judgment that an unfavorable outcome is either probable or remote, and
it is not possible to assess whether or not the outcome of these proceedings will or will not have material adverse effect on
the Company. As of the date of this filing, a class had not yet been established.
NOTE
15 – OPERATING SEGMENTS
The
Company has identified three segments for its products and services; North America, Europe and Asia-Pacific. Our reportable segments
are business units located in different global regions. Each business unit provides similar products and services; license fees
for leasing and asset-based software, related maintenance fees, and implementation and IT consulting services. Separate management
of each segment is required because each business unit is subject to different operational issues and strategies due to their
particular regional location. The Company accounts for intra-company sales and expenses as if the sales or expenses were to third
parties and eliminates them in the consolidation. The following table presents a summary of identifiable assets as of December
31, 2014 and June 30, 2014:

cash, a $452,675 non-interest bearing note receivable due September 30, 2014, and a $452,675 non-interest bearing note receivable
contingent upon the occurrence of future events; however, the future events must occur before March 31, 2015. The $452,675 non-interest
bearing note receivable that is contingent upon the occurrence of future events was not included in the gain calculation due to
the uncertainty that the future events would occur. The Company received $452,675 on September 30, 2014 as payment for the non-interest
bearing note receivable.

2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Plan of Operation
The
following discussion is intended to assist in an understanding of the Company’s financial position and results of operations
for the three and six months ended December 31, 2014.
Forward-Looking
Information
This
report contains certain forward-looking statements and information relating to the Company that is based on the beliefs of its
management as well as assumptions made by and information currently available to its management. When used in this report, the
words “anticipate”, “believe”, “estimate”, “expect”, “intend”, “plan”,
and similar expressions as they relate to the Company or its management, are intended to identify forward-looking statements.
These statements reflect management’s current view of the Company with respect to future events and are subject to certain
risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Should any of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions
prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those described in this report as anticipated, estimated or expected.
The Company’s realization of its business aims could be materially and adversely affected by any technical or other problems
in, or difficulties with, planned funding and technologies, third party technologies which render the Company’s technologies
obsolete, the unavailability of required third party technology licenses on commercially reasonable terms, the loss of key research
and development personnel, the inability or failure to recruit and retain qualified research and development personnel, or the
adoption of technology standards which are different from technologies around which the Company’s business ultimately is
built. The Company does not intend to update these forward-looking statements.
Overview

constitute mission critical applications for our clients as they encapsulate end-to-end business processes, facilitating faster

lease and finance industry.
NetSol’s
clients include Dow-Jones 30 Industrials and Fortune 500 manufacturers and financial institutions, global vehicle manufacturers,

The
Company maintains services, solutions and/or sales specific offices in the USA, England, Germany, Pakistan, Thailand, China and
Australia.
NetSol’s
offerings include its flagship global solution, NFS™. A robust suite of five software applications, it is an end-to-end
solution for the lease and finance industry covering the complete leasing and financing cycle, starting from quotation origination
through end of contract transactions. The five software applications under NFS™ have been designed and developed for a highly
flexible setting and are capable of dealing with multinational, multi-company, multi-asset, multi-lingual, multi-distributor and
multi-manufacturer environments. Each application is a complete system in itself and can be used independently to address specific
sub-domains of the leasing/financing cycle. When used together, they fully automate the entire leasing/financing cycle for any
size company, including those with multi-billion dollar portfolios.
NFS
Ascent™
On
October 24, 2013, we announced the introduction and global release of NFS Ascent™, the Company’s next-generation platform,
offering a technologically advanced solution for the auto and equipment finance and leasing industry. NFS Ascent’s™
architecture and user interfaces were designed based on the Company’s collective experience with global Fortune 500 companies
over the past 30 years. The platform’s framework allows auto captive and asset finance companies to rapidly transform legacy
driven technology into a state-of-the-art IT and business process environment. At the core of the NFS Ascent™ platform is
a lease accounting and contract processing engine, which allows for an array of interest calculation methods, as well as robust
accounting of multi-billion dollar lease portfolios under various generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), as well as
international financial reporting standards (IFRS). NFS Ascent™, with its distributed and clustered deployment across parallel
application and high volume data servers, enables finance companies to process voluminous data in a hyper speed environment.
NFS
Ascent™ has been developed using the latest tools and technologies and its n-tier SOA architecture allows the system to
dramatically improve a myriad of areas including, but not limited to, scalability, performance, fault tolerance and security.
We believe that the transition from NFS™ to NFS Ascent™ allows:
|
● |
Improvement
in overall productivity throughout the delivery organization: |
|
○ |
The
new architecture and design of the system allow the implementation team to deliver more with less, thus potentially increasing
the delivery of more projects in any given financial year. |
|
|
|
|
○ |
The
functionalities, like the Business Process Manager, Workflow Engine and Business Rule Engine, provides flexibility to our
clients allowing them to configure certain parts of the application themselves rather than requesting customization. |
|
|
|
|
○ |
The
NFS Ascent™ platform and the SOA architecture allow us to develop portals and mobile applications quickly by utilizing
our existing services. Integration with other systems becomes easier and quicker as we can expose our services to the external
world for consumption. |
|
|
|
|
○ |
The
n-tier architecture allows us to better distribute the tasks among various team members, and because of the loose coupling
between various modules and layers, the risk of regression in other parts of the system as a result of changes made in one
part of the system is reduced tremendously. |
|
● |
Improvement in
talent acquisition and retention: |
|
○ |
Because
NFS Ascent™ has been developed using the latest technologies and tools available in the market, it helps us attract
and retain top engineers. |
|
● |
Better customer
satisfaction: |
|
○ |
As
a result of the powerful NFS Ascent™ platform and improvement in the talent acquisition and retention, the quality of
our deliverables should increase. |
While
the next-generation of NFS™ is designed to be a truly global solution, ready for customization in any market, the Company
has historically provided products tailored to the various markets. It offers the following regional products:
LeasePak
In
North America, NTA has and continues to develop LeasePak Productivity modules as an additional companion set of products to operate
in conjunction with the LeasePak base system licensed software. LeasePak streamlines the lease management lifecycle, while maintaining
customer service and reducing operating costs. It is web-enabled and can be configured to run on HP-UX, SUN/Solaris or Linux,
as well as for Oracle and Sybase users. It is easily scalable from a basic offering to a collection of highly specialized add
on modules for systems, portfolios and accrual methods for virtually all sizes of operations with varying complexity. It is part
of the vehicle leasing infrastructure at leading Fortune 500 banks and manufacturers, as well as for some of the industry’s
leading independent lessors. It handles every aspect of the lease or loan lifecycle, including credit application origination,
credit adjudication, pricing, documentation, booking, payments, customer service, collections, midterm adjustments, and end-of-term
options and asset disposition. Recently, it has been integrated with Vertex Series O.
LeasePak-SaaS
The
LeasePak-Software as-a-Service (“SaaS”) targets small and mid-sized leasing and finance companies. The product dramatically
reduces the customer’s IT spending by minimizing the cost of acquiring and maintaining expensive IT infrastructure and related
administrative staff. LeasePak SaaS offers a new deployment option whereby customers only require access to the internet and web
browser to use the software. Customers pay for the use of the system through a monthly subscription fee, covering use of the software,
maintenance, support, hosting and other various items that reduce the overall cost and processing time of finance companies.
NTA’s
solutions now include the SaaS business line, which provides enhanced performance, while reducing the overall cost of ownership.
With an elastic cloud price, revenue stream predictability and improved return on investment for customers, management believes
that its SaaS customers will experience the performance, the reliability and the speed usually associated with a highly scalable
private cloud.
LeaseSoft
In
addition to offering all NetSol products, NTE has some regional offerings, including:
|
● |
LeaseSoft
Portal - introduced to support online access to proposals and for the foundation of web-based origination systems; |
|
|
|
|
● |
LeaseSoft
Document Manager - introduced to facilitate the automation, production and distribution of proposal documentation, including

The
following discussion is intended to assist in an understanding of NetSol’s financial position and results of operations
for the six months ended December 31, 2014. It should be read together with our condensed consolidated financial statements and
related notes included herein.
A few of
NetSol’s major successes achieved in the first six months of fiscal year 2015 were:
|
● |
NetSol
PK signed an agreement valued at more than $16 million over a period of five years to implement NFS Ascent™.
The implementation, with a major multi-finance group in Asia, will fully automate all finance front and back office operations; |
|
|
|
|
● |
NetSol
China signed an agreement with an auto captive finance company in China for the implementation of NFS™, the
Company’s legacy system; |
|
|
|
|
● |
NetSol
PK signed an agreement to implement NFS™ at a leading auto captive finance company in China; |
|
|
|
|
● |
NTE
and VLS developed a Business Process Outsource (BPO) service to
address the broker market for own book management. In collaboration with funders, the service will form part of the funding
approval process, which will generate a significant increase in sales opportunities; |
|
|
|
|
● |
Established
a new office in Stuttgart, Germany to improve NetSol’s presence in Europe; |
|
|
|
|
● |
Signed
an agreement with a German automobile company to license LeaseSoft and provide business process outsourcing services; |
|
|
|
|
● |
Expanded
relationship with CNH Industrial Capital, Australia, to further implement NFS™; and, |
|
|
|
|
● |
Added 50 additional licenses to a leading automotive
manufacturer’s current LeasePak portfolio. |
Our
success, in the near term, will depend, in large part, on the Company’s ability to: (a) continue to grow revenues and improve
profits, (b) adequately capitalize for growth in various markets and verticals; (c) make progress in the North American and European
markets and, (d) continue to streamline sales and marketing efforts in every market we operate. However, management’s outlook
for the continuing operations, which has been consolidated and has been streamlined, remains optimistic.
Marketing
and Business Development Activities
Management
has developed, and the board of directors has ratified, an aggressive 3-5 year growth strategy aimed at increasing competitiveness,
enhancing global delivery capabilities and increasing financial strength to become a leading global IT institution in the leasing
and finance space.
The plan
contemplates the following enhanced activities and initiatives to accomplish these goals:
|
● |
Continue
to advance infrastructure and systems in Lahore, Bangkok, Beijing and San Francisco locations. |
|
|
|
|
● |
Strengthen
the NetSol brand in the Americas and Europe and further penetrate in APAC markets such as China, Thailand, Indonesia, Australia
and New Zealand. |
|
|
|
|
● |
Hire
and retain the best available talent to develop the next line of managers for our growing demand. |
|
|
|
|
● |
Develop
the sales and delivery capabilities for the Americas markets, in particular the growth in the U.S. auto and banking sectors.
A shift in revenue contribution from the Americas markets in next few years would improve both gross and net operating margins
due to the volume and size of U.S. contracts; further position NetSol to deliver and support the new growth and technology
dimensions in IT services, maintenance, mobile apps and cloud based solutions. |
|
|
|
|
● |
Maintain
the quality of our delivery, after delivery support, and client relationships. |
|
|
|
|
● |
Aggressively market NFS Ascent™ in Europe
and North America to penetrate the auto captive leasing and financing sectors. |

CRITICAL
ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Our
financial statements and accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States (“U.S. GAAP”). Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect
the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are affected by management’s
application of accounting policies. Critical accounting policies for us include revenue recognition and multiple element arrangements,
intangible assets, software development costs, and goodwill.
REVENUE
RECOGNTION
The
Company recognizes revenue from license contracts without major customization when a non-cancelable, non-contingent license agreement
has been signed, delivery of the software has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable, and collectability is probable. Revenue
from the sale of licenses with major customization, modification, and development is recognized on a percentage of completion
method. Revenue from the implementation of software is recognized on a percentage of completion method.
Revenue
from consulting services is recognized as the services are performed for time-and-materials contracts. Revenue from training and
development services is recognized as the services are performed. Revenue from maintenance agreements is recognized ratably over
the term of the maintenance agreement, which in most instances is one year.
MULTIPLE
ELEMENT ARRANGEMENTS
We
may enter into multiple element revenue arrangements in which a customer may purchase a number of different combinations of software
licenses, consulting services, maintenance and support, as well as training and development (multiple element arrangements).
Vendor
Specific Objective Evidence (“VSOE”) of fair value for each element is based on the price for which the element is
sold separately. We determine the VSOE of fair value of each element based on historical evidence of our stand-alone sales of
these elements to third-parties or from the stated renewal rate for the elements contained in the initial software license arrangement.
When VSOE of fair value does not exist for any undelivered element, revenue is deferred until the earlier of the point at which
such VSOE of fair value exists or until all elements of the arrangement have been delivered. The only exception to this guidance
is when the only undelivered element is maintenance and support or other services, then, the entire arrangement fee is recognized
ratably over the performance period.
INTANGIBLE
ASSETS
Intangible
assets consist of product licenses, renewals, enhancements, copyrights, trademarks, trade names, and customer lists. Intangible
assets with finite lives are amortized over the estimated useful life and are evaluated for impairment at least on an annual basis
and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. We assess recoverability
by determining whether the carrying value of such assets will be recovered through the undiscounted expected future cash flows.
If the future undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying amount of these assets, we recognize an impairment loss based
on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the assets.
SOFTWARE
DEVELOPMENT COSTS
Costs
incurred to internally develop computer software products or to enhance an existing product are recorded as research and development
costs and expensed when incurred until technological feasibility for the respective product is established. Thereafter, all software
development costs are capitalized and reported at the lower of unamortized cost or net realizable value. Capitalization ceases
when the product or enhancement is available for general release to customers.
The
Company makes on-going evaluations of the recoverability of its capitalized software projects by comparing the amount capitalized
for each product to the estimated net realizable value of the product. If such evaluations indicate that the unamortized software
development costs exceed the net realizable value, the Company writes off the amount which the unamortized software development
costs exceed net realizable value. Capitalized and purchased computer software development costs are being amortized ratably based
on the projected revenue associated with the related software or on a straight-line basis.
STOCK-BASED
COMPENSATION
Our
stock-based compensation expense is estimated at the grant date based on the award’s fair value as calculated by the Black-Scholes-Merton
(BSM) option pricing model and is recognized as expense over the requisite service period. The BSM model requires various highly
judgmental assumptions including expected volatility and expected term. If any of the assumptions used in the BSM model changes
significantly, stock-based compensation expense may differ materially in the future from that recorded in the current period.
In addition, we are required to estimate the expected forfeiture rate and only recognize expense for those shares expected to
vest. We estimate the forfeiture rate based on historical experience and our expectations regarding future pre-vesting termination
behavior of employees. To the extent our actual forfeiture rate is different from our estimate; stock-based compensation expense
is adjusted accordingly.
GOODWILL
Goodwill
represents the excess of the aggregate purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired in a purchase businesses
combination. Goodwill is reviewed for impairment on an annual basis, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the carrying amount of goodwill may be impaired. The goodwill impairment test is a two-step test. Under the first
step, the fair value of the reporting unit is compared with its carrying value (including goodwill). If the fair value of the
reporting unit is less than its carrying value, an indication of goodwill impairment exists for the reporting unit and the enterprise
must perform step two of the impairment test (measurement). Under step two, an impairment loss is recognized for any excess of
the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s goodwill over the implied fair value of that goodwill. The implied fair value
of goodwill is determined by allocating the fair value of the reporting unit in a manner similar to a purchase price allocation.
The residual fair value after this allocation is the implied fair value of the reporting unit goodwill. Fair value of the reporting
unit is determined using a discounted cash flow analysis. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds its carrying value,
step two does not need to be performed.

Revenues
License
fees
License
fees for the three months ended December 31, 2014 were $2,100,715 compared to $455,616 for the three months ended December 31,
2013 reflecting an increase of $1,645,099. During the quarter ended December 31, 2014, the Company signed one deal for the implementation
of our legacy system, NFS™. This deal includes both license and services elements. The Company also issued additional Licenses
for its LeasePak product.
Maintenance
fees
Maintenance
fees for the three months ended December 31, 2014, were $3,329,587 compared to $2,867,195 for the three months ended December
31, 2013, reflecting an increase of $462,392. Maintenance fees begin once a customer has “gone live” with our product.
The increase was due to the start of new maintenance agreements from customers who went live with our product during the latter
stages of fiscal year 2014 and into fiscal year 2015. We anticipate maintenance fees to remain relatively stable until we are
able to license NFS Ascent™ to new customers.
Services
Services
income for the three months ended December 31, 2014 were $6,922,302 compared to $5,231,490 for the three months ended December
31, 2013 reflecting an increase of $1,690,812. Included in the services income are services provided to related parties of $1,354,476
for the three months ended December 31, 2014 compared to $1,256,899 for the same period last year. Services revenue is derived
from services provided to both current customers as well as services provided to new customers as part of the implementation process.
Moving forward, with the implementation of new projects of NFS Ascent™, we anticipate this element of our revenue
to increase more compared to the license fee.
Gross
Profit
The
gross profit was $5,000,552, for the three months ended December 31, 2014 compared with $2,919,043 for the three months ended
December 31, 2013. This is an increase of 71.13% or $2,081,509. The gross profit percentage for the three months ended December
31, 2014 also increased to 40.48% from 34.12% for the three months ended December 31, 2013. The increase in the gross profit is
mainly due to the increase in revenues. The cost of sales was $7,352,052 for the three months ended December 31, 2014 compared
to $5,635,258 for the three months ended December 31, 2013. As a percentage of sales, cost of sales decreased from 65.88% for
the three months ended December 31, 2013 to 59.52% for the three months ended December 31, 2014.
Salaries
and consultant fees increased by $1,138,140 from $3,160,760 for the three months ended December 31, 2013 to $4,298,900 for the
three months ended December 31, 2014. The increase in salaries and consultant fees is due to the hiring and training of technical
employees at key locations including Pakistan, Thailand, China, Europe and North America as we anticipate new projects associated
with NFS Ascent™. As a percentage of sales, salaries and consultant expense decreased from 36.95% for the three months ended
December 31, 2013 to 34.8% for the three months ended December 31, 2014.
Depreciation
and amortization expense increased to $1,800,753 compared to $1,120,363 for the three months ended December 31, 2013, or an increase
of $680,390. Depreciation and amortization expense increased as we began amortizing the product licenses costs that had been capitalized
related to the NFS Ascent™ development.
Operating
Expenses
Operating
expenses were $6,005,149 for the three months ended December 31, 2014 compared to $4,377,273, for the three months ended December
31, 2013 or an increase of 51.17% or $1,627,876. As a percentage of sales, it decreased from 51.17% to 48.61%. The increase in
operating expenses was primarily due to the increase in selling and marketing expenses of $681,174 or 76.21% and an increase in
general and administrative expenses of $914,323 or 30.5%. The increase in selling and marketing expenses is due to the hiring
of additional employees and the increase in marketing efforts for NFS Ascent™. The increase in general and administrative
expenses is primarily due to the startup of a new subsidiary in Germany and an increase in salaries of approximately $280,261
due to annual raises and hiring of additional employees.

Revenues
License
fees
License
fees for the six months ended December 31, 2014 were $3,685,268 compared to $2,708,183 for the six months ended December 31, 2013
reflecting an increase of $977,085. During the six months ended December 31, 2014, we signed two different deals for the implementation
of our legacy system, NFS™. These deals include both license and services elements. During the six months ended December
31, 2014, we signed a major contract for the implementation of our next-generation platform, NFS Ascent™. The
contract includes license fee, customization and implementation services. The Company also issued additional Licenses for its
LeasePak product.
Maintenance
fees
Maintenance
fees for the six months ended December 31, 2014, were $6,178,228 compared to $5,247,604, for the six months ended December 31,
2013, reflecting an increase of $930,624. Maintenance fees begin once a customer has “gone live” with our product.
The increase was due to the start of new maintenance agreements from customers who went live with our product during the latter
stages of fiscal year 2014 and into fiscal year 2015. We anticipate maintenance fees to remain relatively stable until we are
able to license NFS Ascent™ to new customers.
Services
Services
income for the six months ended December 31, 2014 were $12,716,259 compared to $9,519,256 for the six months ended December 31,
2013 reflecting an increase of $3,197,003. Included in the services income are services provided to related parties of $2,750,476
for the six months ended December 31, 2014 compared to $2,224,442 for the same period last year. Services revenue is derived from
services provided to both current customers as well as services provided to new customers as part of the implementation process.
Moving forward, with the implementation of new projects of NFS Ascent™, we anticipate this element of our revenue to increase
more compared to the license fee.
Gross
Profit
The
gross profit was $8,213,185, for the six months ended December 31, 2014 compared with $6,576,550 for the six months ended December
31, 2013. This is an increase of 24.89% or $1,636,635. The gross profit percentage for the six months ended December 31, 2014
slightly decreased to 36.37% from 37.63% for the six months ended December 31, 2013. The cost of sales was $14,366,570 for the
six months ended December 31, 2014 compared to $10,898,493 for the six months ended December 31, 2013. As a percentage of sales,
cost of sales increased from 62.37% for the six months ended December 31, 2013 to 63.63% for the six months ended December 31,
2014.
Salaries
and consultant fees increased by $1,994,566 from $6,420,551 for the six months ended December 31, 2013 to $8,415,117 for the six
months ended December 31, 2014. The increase in salaries and consultant fees is due to the hiring and training of technical employees
at key locations including Pakistan, Thailand, China, Europe and North America as we anticipate new projects associated with NFS
Ascent™. As a percentage of sales, salaries and consultant expense increased from 36.74% for the six months ended December
31, 2013 to 37.27% for the six months ended December 31, 2014.
Depreciation
and amortization expense increased to $3,602,320 compared to $2,046,678 for the six months ended December 31, 2013, or an increase
of $1,555,642. Depreciation and amortization expense increased as we began amortizing the product licenses costs that had been
capitalized related to the NFS Ascent™ development.
Operating
Expenses
Operating
expenses were $11,460,303 for the six months ended December 31, 2014 compared to $9,324,719, for the six months ended December
31, 2013 or an increase of 22.9% or $2,135,584. As a percentage of sales, it decreased from 53.36% to 50.75%. The increase in
operating expenses was primarily due to the increase in selling and marketing expenses of $758,393 or 38.91%, depreciation and
amortization of $161,212 or 18.8% and an increase in general and administrative expenses of $1,183,079 or 18.47%. The increase
in selling and marketing expenses is due to the hiring of additional employees and the increase in marketing efforts for NFS Ascent™.
The increase in general and administrative expenses is primarily due to the startup of a new subsidiary in Germany and an increase
in salaries of approximately $520,339 due to annual raises and hiring of additional employees.
Loss
from Operations

Our

We had accounts receivable of $9,829,729 at December 31, 2014 compared to $7,635,775 at June 30, 2014. We had revenues in excess
of billings of $3,098,226 at December 31, 2014 compared to $2,377,367 at June 30, 2014. During the six months ended December 31,
2014, our revenues in excess of billings were reclassified to accounts receivable pursuant to billing requirements detailed in
each contract. The combined totals for accounts receivable and revenues in excess of billings increased $2,914,813 from $10,013,142
at June 30, 2014 to $12,927,955 at December 31, 2014. The increase in accounts receivable is due to invoicing of maintenance fees
to various customers. To some customers, the maintenance fee is invoiced in advance for the year. The amount is recorded in unearned
revenue and is recognized as revenue on the time proportionate method. Accounts payable and accrued expenses, and current portions
of loans and lease obligations amounted to $4,971,101 and $3,217,397, respectively at December 31, 2014.
The
average days sales outstanding for the six months ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 were 93 and 275 days, respectively, for each
period. The days sales outstanding have been calculated by taking into consideration the average combined balances of accounts

cash provided by financing activities was $574,569 and $439,943 for the six months ended December 31, 2014, and 2013, respectively.
The Company received a total of $1,610,000 pursuant to a stock purchase agreement for the purchase of 449,122 restricted shares
of common stock at $2.85 per share and 107,842 restricted shares of common stock at $3.06 per share. The six months ended December

months ended December 31, 2013. During the six months ended December 31, 2014, we had net payments for bank loans and capital
leases of $2,867,974 as compared to $781,756 for the six months ended December 31, 2013. We are operating in various geographical
regions of the world through its various subsidiaries. Those subsidiaries have financial arrangements from various financial institutions
to meet both their short and long term funding requirements. These loans will become due at different maturity dates as described
in Note No. 11 of the financial statements. We are in compliance with the covenants of the financial arrangements and there is
no default, whatsoever, which may lead to early payment of these obligations. We anticipate paying back all these obligations
on their respective due dates from its own sources.
We
typically fund the cash requirements for our operations in the U.S. through our license, services, and maintenance agreements,
intercompany charges for corporate services, and through the exercise of options and warrants. As of December 31, 2014, we had
approximately $13.49 million of cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of which approximately $8.86 million is held
by our foreign subsidiaries. As of June 30, 2014, we had approximately $11.46 million of cash, cash equivalents and marketable
securities of which approximately $8.4 million is held by our foreign subsidiaries. We intend to permanently reinvest these funds
outside the U.S., and therefore, we do not anticipate repatriating undistributed earnings from our non-U.S. operations. If funds
from foreign operations are required to fund U.S. operations in the future and if U.S. tax has not previously been provided, we
would be required to accrue and pay additional U.S. taxes to repatriate these funds.
We
remain open to strategic relationships that would provide value added benefits. The focus will remain on continuously improving
cash reserves internally and reduced reliance on external capital raise.
As
a growing company, we have on-going capital expenditure needs based on our short term and long term business plans. Although our
requirements for capital expenses vary from time to time, for the next 12 months, we anticipate needing $2.5 to $3.5 million for
APAC, U.S. and Europe new business development activities and infrastructure enhancements, which we expect to provide from current
operations.
While
there is no guarantee that any of these methods will result in raising sufficient funds to meet our capital needs or that even
if available will be on terms acceptable to us, we will be very cautious and prudent about any new capital raise given the global
market uncertainties. However, we are very conscious of the dilutive effect and price pressures in raising equity-based capital.
Financial
Covenants
Our
U.K.-based subsidiary, NTE, has an approved overdraft facility of £300,000 which requires that the aggregate amount of invoiced
trade debtors (net of provisions for bad and doubtful debts and excluding intra-group debtors) of NTE, not exceeding 90 days old,
will not be less than an amount equal to 200% of the facility. NTE had been granted another credit facility of £1,000,000
for the acquisition VLS. This facility requires that NTE’s adjusted tangible net worth would not be less than £600,000.
For this purpose, adjusted tangible net worth means shareholders’ funds less intangible assets plus non-redeemable preference
shares. In addition, NTE’s cash debt service coverage would not fall below 150% of the aggregate debt service cost. The
Pakistani subsidiary, NetSol PK has an approved facility for both export refinance and term finance from Askari Bank Limited amounting
to Rupees 350 million ($3,434,100) which requires NetSol PK to maintain a long term debt equity ratio of 60:40 and the current
ratio of 1:1.
As
of the date of this report, we are in compliance with the financial covenants associated with our borrowings. The maturity dates
of the borrowings of respective subsidiaries may accelerate if they do not comply with these covenants. In case of any change
in control in subsidiaries, they may have to repay their respective credit facilities.

4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our
management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of
our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act, as of the end of the period covered by
this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Financial Officer and Chief Executive Officer concluded
that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
Management’s
Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our
management has the responsibility to establish and maintain adequate internal controls over our financial reporting, as defined
in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934. Our internal controls are designed to provide reasonable assurance
regarding the reliability of our financial reporting and the preparation of our external financial statements in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).
Due
to inherent limitations of any internal control system, management acknowledges that there are limitations as to the effectiveness
of internal controls over financial reporting and therefore recognize that only reasonable assurance can be gained from any internal
control system. Accordingly, our internal control system may not detect or prevent material misstatements in our financial statements
and projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate
because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Under
the supervision and participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we have performed
an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting as of December 31, 2014. This assessment
was based on the criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework, issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations
of the Treadway Commission. Based on the results of our assessment, the Company has determined that as of December 31, 2014, there
was no material weakness in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Our management, including our Chief
Executive Officer, believes that the financial statements included in this report fairly present in all material respects our
financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.
Changes
in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There
have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the six months ended December 31, 2014, that have
materially affected, or are reasonable likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting
(as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a – 15(f) and 15d – 15(f)).
PART
II OTHER INFORMATION

1. Legal Proceedings
As
previously disclosed, on July 25, 2014, a Federal Securities class action lawsuit entitled Rand-Heart of New York, Inc. v.
NetSol Technologies, Inc., Najeeb Ghauri, Naeem Ghauri, and Salim Ghauri was filed in Central District of California. The
action generally alleges the Company violated certain federal securities laws by allegedly issuing false and misleading statements
regarding the Company’s product and business prospect of that product. Specifically, the complaint alleges the next-generation
product did not exist as of November 8, 2011 and there was no reasonable basis for stating that there was a growing interest or
serious interest in the product; the product had been gaining momentum or that it had been well received. The plaintiff has filed
an amended consolidated complaint including the previous allegations. On January 21, 2015, defendants filed a motion to dismiss
the lawsuit stating that the plaintiff’s complaint fails to sufficiently plead the allegations and essential elements of
the claims. Following responsive pleadings by plaintiff and defendant, a motion is scheduled to be heard on March 16, 2015. The
Company believes the lawsuit to be meritless and intends to vigorously defend the action including but not limited to motions
to dismiss. The Company has engaged counsel and has liability insurance. Given the early stage of the litigation, however, at
this time the Company is unable to form a professional judgment that an unfavorable outcome is either probable or remote, and
it is not possible to assess whether or not the outcome of these proceedings will or will not have material adverse effect on
the Company. As of the date of this filing, a class had not yet been established.
