OUR BUSINESS

In today’s highly competitive marketplace, business executives with labor or services-centric budgetary responsibilities are not just encouraged but, in fact, obliged to engage in “Make or Buy” decision process when contemplating how to support and staff new development, testing, services support and delivery activities.  The Company business offerings are aligned as a BestShoring® solutions strategy.  Simply defined, BestShoring® is NetSol Technologies’ ability to draw upon its global resource base and construct the best possible solution and price for each and every customer.  Unlike traditional outsourcing offshore vendors, NetSol draws upon an international workforce and delivery capability to ensure a “BestShoring® delivers BestSolution™” approach.

In addition to services, our product offerings are fashioned to provide a Best Product for Best Solution model.  Our offerings include our flagship global solution, NetSol Financial Suite (NFS™). NFS™, a robust suite of five software applications, is an end-to-end solution for the lease and finance industry covering the complete leasing and finance cycle starting from quotation origination through end of contract. 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.  NFS™ is a result of more than eight years of effort resulting in over 60 modules grouped in five comprehensive applications. These five applications are complete systems in themselves and can be used independently to exhaustively address specific sub-domains of the leasing/financing cycle. When used together, they fully automate the entire leasing / financing cycle.
 
The NetSol Financial Suite™ also includes LeasePak.  LeasePak provides the leasing technology industry with the development of Web-enabled and Web-based tools to deliver superior customer service, reduce operating costs, streamline the lease management lifecycle, and support collaboration with origination channel and asset partners.  LeasePak can be configured to run on HP-UX, SUN/Solaris or Linux, as well as for Oracle and Sybase users.  In terms of scalability, NetSol Technologies North America offers the basic product as well as a collection of highly specialized add on modules for systems, portfolios and accrual methods for virtually all sizes and complexities of operations.

To further bolster NetSol’s Solutions capabilities, in October 2008, NetSol acquired Ciena Solutions, a preferred SAP and Business Objects integration firm. The Ciena Solutions practice is now integrated into our wholly owned subsidiary, NetSol Technologies North America, Inc.  This acquisition expanded NetSol’s domain and subject matter expertise to include integration and consulting services for:
 
·
SAP R/3 System deployments
 
·
NetWeaver
 
·
Exchange Infrastructure Portals
 
·
MySAP Business Suite
 
·
Supplier Relationship Management Module
 
·
Client Relationship Management Module
 
·
SAP/Business Objects Products and related Services

In addition to this expansion of SAP-centric integration consulting and services, this practice has developed proprietary intellectual property in the form of designs and source code focused on enhancing SAP-centric procurement activities.

The introduction of a major new product, smartOCI™, has emerged from this integration.  smartOCI™ is a new search engine technology developed by NetSol which provides corporate buyers and shoppers a simple and intuitive user interface to search multiple supplier catalogs simultaneously within the SAP SRM application.  The launch of smartOCI™ at the SAP SAPPHIRE Conference in Orlando, Florida, targeting approximately 1,000 SAP SRM platform customers has the strengthened NetSol’s presence in the global SAP Services market.
 
The Company continues its efforts to reduce redundancy and cohesively present services and product operations on a global basis. This consolidation enables the Company to coordinate and streamline product, service and marketing while taking further advantage of the cost arbitrage offered by our highly trained, highly productive, Pakistani resources.  This consolidation follows the successful integration of the operations acquired in the United Kingdom and the San Francisco Bay Area in California and facilitates the use of these regional offices as platforms for presenting an expanding services offering, relying on the experience and resources in Pakistan and our product offerings in North America and Europe.

While the Company follows a global strategy for sales and delivery of its portfolio of solutions and services, it continues to maintain regional offices in the San Francisco Bay area, California for North America and the parent headquarters in Calabasas, California; Horsham, United Kingdom, for Europe; and, our “center of excellence” operation in Lahore, Pakistan for Asia Pacific. The Company continues to maintain services or products and specific sales offices in Australia, China, Thailand and Pakistan and in any other country on an as needed basis.

Our Services

Global Business Services

Information technology services are valuable only if they fulfill the business strategy and project objectives set forth by the customer. NetSol’s expert consultants have the technical knowledge and business experience to ensure the optimization of the development process in alignment with basic business principles.  The Company’s Global Business Services (GBS)™ offers a broad array of professional services to clients in the global commercial markets and specializes in the application of advanced and complex IT enterprise solutions to achieve its customers' strategic objectives. GBS™ includes IT Consulting & Services; NetSol Defense Division; Business Intelligence, Independent System Review (ISR); Information Security, Outsourcing Services and Software Process Improvement Consulting; maintenance and support of existing systems; and project management.

As part of the Company’s GBS™ strategy, each subsidiary adheres to the BestShoring® provides BestSolutions™ model.  Each subsidiary expounds on that model by providing services unique to their client base.  The development of solutions for clients has resulted in the development of vertical offerings catering to various industries and accordingly, diversifying NetSol’s offerings.  As an example, these verticals have been used successfully in Pakistan to provide services for the Motor Transport Management System, Land Record Management System, Legislature, Healthcare, computer based trainings/e-Learning, E Government and Defense.

Business Intelligence (BI) solution providers must have both the capability to service BI customers using its own resources but also service the customers’ international affiliates.  Typical BI projects run into several years of phased implementation and rely on expensive international resources with a very restricted and limited accessibility.  As such, management believes, NetSol’s competitors compromise on quality by turning BI projects into IT projects, which is a recipe for failure.  Our strategy is simple; we identify the business needs of our potential customer and involve our industry domain experts directly with business managers at the client side.  This results in ownership of the project with the business group rather than the IT group which is involved in the overall initiative only from a support and facilitation standpoint.

Independent System Review (ISR) is a key emerging service area for NetSol.  In delivering high quality independent review of software systems running, or under deployment, at client sites, NetSol leverages its rich quality assurance experience in customization and implementation, as well as application development in finance and other domains.  It employs a range of automated quality assurance tools in providing independent assurance to customers regarding the reliability and performance of their new software systems.  The actual testing may be performed both onsite and offsite for the clients.

An ever growing awareness of highly publicized IT Security problems, coupled with greater demands by international business partners, has led the movement of companies world-wide towards compliance with internationally recognized Information Security Systems standards.  Information Systems Security or Information Assurance applies to all systems in all departments of an organization whether on a computer disk, paper or in the heads of employees.  Information Security services is provided by NetSol’s INFOSEC Unit.  This unit provides services to secure all corporate information and its supporting processes, systems and networks.  NetSol’s Information Security Services is a group of vendor-neutral, dedicated security consultants with real-life field experience.  The INFOSEC group utilizes industry standard security best practices coupled with best-of-breed products to deliver proven and robust Information Security Management Systems (ISMS).  INFOSEC services include:  managed security services; BS-7799/ISO 27001 Consultancy, Information Security Assessment, Penetration Testing and Vulnerability Assessment; Disaster Recovery Planning; and, Secure Network Design.    The INFOSEC group has launched a new project, Secure Pakistan.  The project aims to secure critical information, while in storage or in transfer, from theft.  Secure Pakistan is developing IT service labs for forensic investigation, CERT (Computer Emergency Response Team), 24/7 security surveillance, and cyber crime awareness training.    INFOSEC is partnered with global giants including IBM Internet Security Systems and Kaspersky Labs.  The Company hopes to extend its INFOSEC offerings to the Middle East through its Atheeb NetSol joint venture in Saudi Arabia.

Software Process Improvement Consulting is provided by NetSol to companies in Pakistan through an independent division.  The division provides quality engineering and related consulting services to technology companies.  The services include: consultancy, facilitation services and implementation support for CMMI appraisal, all of these activities are broadly developed under the guidelines of SEI based CMMI processes as well as the information security consulting practices.  Currently, NetSol is amongst the few companies authorized by Pakistan Software Export Board (PSEB) for CMMI and BS7799/ISO 27001 consulting practices in Pakistan.

Our most successful outsourcing model has been our joint venture with Innovation Group plc (previously referred to as “TiG”), known as NetSol Innovation Pvt. Ltd (“NetSol-Innovation).  The Extended Innovation model is discussed on page 13 of this report.  We are parlaying the success of NETSOL-INNOVATION into our new joint venture with Atheeb Group for the Middle Eastern market.  The Atheeb joint venture is discussed on page 13.

The NetSol Defense Division (NDD) was founded in 2005 to take advantage of its coordination with the Pakistani Defense Sector.  NDD specializes in providing solutions for improvement and optimization of operations of the defense and military forces.  With a unique blend of experienced and highly skilled IT specialists and managers, and most importantly the domain experts from the Defense Sector itself, NDD has the critical task of ensuring that the solutions provided are focused and need-specific to the requirements, as well as the technological advancements, in the sector around the globe.  Operating through the NDD R&D Lab, which is strategically located in Rawalpindi, for closer coordination with various defense organizations stakeholders and to establish an operations center and simulation lab, NDD is involved in R&D activities, as well as project management for various on-going and potential projects.

Our Products

NetSol Financial Suite™

The Company develops advanced software systems for the lease and finance industries. In addition to services, our product offerings are fashioned to provide a Best Product for Best Solution™ model.  Our offerings include our flagship global solution, NetSol Financial Suite (“NFS”)™, a robust suite of five software applications, is an end-to-end solution for the lease and finance industry covering the complete leasing and finance cycle starting from quotation origination through end of contract. The Company’s over eight years of effort resulted in over 60 modules grouped in five comprehensive applications.  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.
 
The constituent software applications are:
 
·           Point of Sale (POS).  POS is a front office processing system for companies in the financial sector.  It provides a quotation system which also incorporates a simulation for all kinds of financial products using a built-in loan calculation.  POS includes a proposal module which gathers all the required information from the customer in order to create finance or leasing contracts.  POS boasts a document management module which manages all the documents required in making the contract, such as bank statements and identity information.  POS incorporates a workflow engine that ensures smooth transition of tasks and streamlines the processes. POS can work as an independent web-based system for all types of financial institutions including, but not limited to banks and finance companies.

·           Credit Application Processing System (CAP). CAP provides companies in the financial sector an environment to handle the incoming credit applications from dealers, agents, brokers and the direct sales force. LeaseSoft.CAP automatically gathers information from different interfaces like credit rating agencies, evaluation guides, and contract management systems and scores the applications against defined scorecards. This automated workflow permits the credit team members to make their decisions more quickly and accurately. Implementation of CAP dramatically reduces application-processing time in turn resulting in greater revenue through higher number of applications finalized in a given time. CAP reduces the probability of a wrong decision thus, again, providing a concrete business value through minimizing the bad debt portfolio. CAP is a database independent online system developed in Microsoft's .Net framework. Toyota Leasing Thailand and BMW Financial Services China are the first two clients of CAP. It can be run from any PC with normal specifications, which is a key benefit for clients.
 
·           Contract Management System (CMS).  CMS provides comprehensive business functionality that enables its users to effectively and smoothly manage and maintain a contract with the most comprehensive details throughout its life cycle. It provides interfaces with company banks and accounting systems. CMS effectively maintains details of all business partners that do business with the company including, but not limited to, customers, dealers, debtors, guarantors, insurance companies and banks. Developed with the input of a number of leasing consultants, this product represents a complete lease and finance product. NetSol’s CMS provides business functionality for all areas that are required to run an effective, efficient and customer oriented lease and finance business.

·           Wholesale Finance System (WFS).  WFS automates and manages the floor plan/bailment activities of dealerships through a finance company. The design of the system is based on the concept of one asset/one loan to facilitate asset tracking and costing. The system covers credit limit, payment of loan, billing and settlement, stock auditing, online dealer and auditor access, and ultimately the pay-off functions.  A separate online add-on module, Dealer & Auditor Access System (DAS), allows dealers to view their outstanding limits and current asset-wise balances through an interface with the finance company.  WFS consists of the following four modules:  Credit Request Management Module (CRM); Loan Management Module (LMS); Stock Auditing Module (SAS); and Billing & Settlement Module (B&S).
 
·           Fleet Management System (FMS).  FMS is designed to efficiently handle all fleet management needs.  FMS is easily integrated with CMS and WFS as well as with any third party contract management system to ensure a single comprehensive system.  FMS’ key features include: a detailed tracking information on every driver and vehicle; customizable reports; periodic reporting on fleet related aspects; internet based access to information; integration with third party software; and, linkage to GPS for real time tracking.
 
Implementation Process

The implementation process normally spans three to six months.  NetSol derives its income both from selling the license to use the products, as well as from related software services. The related services include requirement study/gap analysis, customization on the basis of gaps development, testing, configuration, installation at the client site, data migration, training, user acceptance testing, supporting initial live operations and, finally, the long term maintenance of the system. Any changes or enhancement done is also charged to the customer. In the requirements study/gaps analysis, the NetSol team goes to the client site to study the client’s business and functional requirements and maps them against the existing functionality available in NFS™. With the maturing of our products, free requirement studies tend to yield few, if any gaps.  The development cycle that follows the gaps analysis takes place through our development facility in Lahore.   The highly parameterized NFS™ solutions are configured to meet the clients’ requirements.    This is followed by thorough testing, which takes place at our development facility, although some of these steps may also be carried out at the clients’ locations.  Based on successful testing, the system is installed at the client’s site.  When required, this involves migration of data from an older system to the NFS™ database.  Successful installation is followed by user and administration training.  Both functional and business users are involved.  After training, user acceptance testing is conducted, where client’s nominated staff, along with NetSol consultants, tests the system against business requirements.   Upon acceptance, the system is then considered ready for normal business use. NFS™ provides mission critical software solutions, and the entire business operations of our clients hinge on successful performance of the system. Hence in the early days after going live, NetSol consultants remain at the client site to assist the company in smooth operations. After this phase, the regular maintenance and support services phase for the implemented software begins. In addition to the daily rate paid by the customer for each consultant, the customer also pays for all the transportation related expenses, boarding of the consultants, and a living allowance. NetSol’s involvement in all of the above steps is priced to bring value to our customers and increase our profitability from our interactions.

Pricing and Revenue Streams

The company’s NFS™ revenue streams occur through the following three main areas:  product licensing, implementation related services, and maintenance and support related services.  License fees can vary generally between $500,000 to up to $1,000,000 per license per module.  There are various attributes which determine the level of complexity, a few of which are: number of contracts; size of the portfolio; business strategy of the customer; number of business users; and branch network of the customer. 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.  However, revenue from sale of licenses with major customization, modification, and development is recognized on a percent of completion basis.  Implementation related services, including gap analysis, user acceptance testing (UAT) and data migration (where required) are recognized in accordance with the percentage of completion method.  Maintenance and support related services are then provided on a continued basis.  Revenue from software services includes fixed price contracts and is recognized in accordance with the percentage of completion method using the output measure of “Unit of Work Completed.”  The annual maintenance fee, which usually is an agreed upon percentage of overall monetary value of the implementation, then becomes an ongoing revenue stream realized on yearly basis.

Growth Prospects for NFS™

As a marketing strategy, NetSol is developing lighter solutions with NFS™ to target companies with simpler business models. NFS™ is highly modular.  Hence various sets of functionalities can be used against the restricted requirements of the client.  NetSol has also provided the option of using NFS™ on subscription and pay per use bases to those organizations that are small in size or have small turnover.

An important component of the growth strategy for NFS™ is to extend its customer base to include newer geographic markets. Al Amthal Leasing provided an excellent entry into the Middle East market.  The Company is planning to build on this step in a major way through its Saudi Arabia joint venture, Atheeb NetSol Ltd. After the completion of the entity formation in May 2010, the newly appointed management of the joint venture have started to market the business offerings in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (“KSA”). The company has a first year strategy to focus on NFS™ global customers that have a presence in, or are based in, KSA. This is a young market for leasing and financing market and NetSol is potentially the only IT company with expertise in this space.

In its existing markets, NFS™ is already establishing itself as a leading product catering to the business needs of major blue chip companies. Its current client base includes Mercedes Benz Financial Services (Australia, Japan, New Zealand, Singapore, South Korea, Thailand, China and Taiwan), Yamaha Motors Finance Australia, Toyota Motors Finance China, Toyota Leasing Thailand, Finlease Commercial Bank of Mauritius, CNH Capital Australia, Fiat Automotive Finance China, Dongfeng Nissan Auto Finance China, Nissan Financial Services Australia, BMW Financial Services in China, Volvo Automotive Finance China, EFG Euro Bank Greece and Al Amthal Leasing Saudi Arabia and Minsheng Bank Corp China.

In addition to the confidence of its customers, the product has also won a major regional award, the Asia Pacific ICT Alliance Award for the best financial application for the year 2007. This prestigious award is testimony to the maturity and quality of NFS™.

Our Operations

Asia Pacific

NETSOL PK

Our off-shore development center, and indeed the center of the Company’s services and software operations, is headed by Salim Ghauri, Director, former President of NetSol and current Chief Executive Officer of NetSol Technologies Limited (“NetSol PK”) (the Company’s Pakistan subsidiary).  The Asian continent, Australia/New Zealand, and the Middle East, from the perspective of NFS™ marketing, are targeted by NetSol Technologies from its Lahore subsidiary, its offices in Thailand and Beijing, China.  NetSol PK has continued to grow its service contracts within the local Pakistani public and defense sectors.  An important aspect of these contracts is that not all of them focus solely on software development and engineering.

This year, NetSol PK has continued to provide both consultancy services to organizations so as to improve their quality of operations and services and, winning strategically important assignments with the E-Governance domains for organizations of national significance in Pakistan.  Its clients include private as well as public sector enterprises.

Products

In addition to NFS™, which has a global reach, NetSol PK has developed several products for use in Pakistan for the purpose of automating the country’s vital processes.  While developed for this particular market, the products may be used in other countries or for other customers.

LRMIS

In an agricultural country like Pakistan, land is the primary source of revenue. Land records are currently maintained manually so there is no consistency, accuracy and timely availability of the required record. According to a joint report by National Database and Registration Authority (NADRA), Pakistan and World Food Program (WFP), Pakistan, this existing land revenue management system is more than two hundred years old and is not fulfilling the changing demands of time and new local governance system of devolution properly.

A well planned solution requires easy identification, access, smooth data entry and complete tracking of the entered transactions. With the growth and usage of "e" in contemporary business practices, new challenges have emerged in managing secure access to the authentic data and e-resources, which are scattered across a wide range of internal and external computing systems. This challenge needs quick address in today's competitive economic scenario wherein intellectual and knowledge capital directly translates into exponential growth for the country.

NetSol’s LRMIS is a thin, client web based solution and developed after thorough evaluations of existing manual system and client/user needs, detailed system analysis and process flow definition. It ensures that only authentic employees and individuals can access the application on the privileged areas assigned by the administrator over the internet/Intranet. NetSol has obtained the pilot project for LRMIS, a World Bank funded initiative. NetSol PK has been actively pursuing new projects in various provinces through public tendering process and will report when they become material.

NetSol understands the power of information and complexity of land record system and the user/client needs. For this purpose, NetSol provides its LRMIS by combining technical, operational and domain expertise with proven approaches of analysis, plan, design and implementation to provide an effective solution using IT-enablement in a field where its need its hugely felt.

MTMIS

A few years ago, NetSol PK took the initiative to invest into the Motor Transport domain (“MTMIS”_. Starting with a small implementation, today NetSol has multiple implementations in several parts of the country with ample opportunities available in the future. MTMIS is a customized application envisioned and developed wholly by NetSol as an end-to-end solution of citizens’ vehicles security and information management. Project implementations include the Provinces of Punjab, AJK and NWFP alongside Islamabad Capital Territory. Future opportunities exist in Baluchistan and Sindh for this solution. The system has provision for onsite access to the traffic police records via PDAs and smart cards, onsite verification of any vehicle’s environmental friendly status and road side authorization of driver licenses.

It is significant to note that while in developed countries the elements of the system lie in “islands of data” under  various authorities and geographical domains and have been linked together to create the central data warehouse; the NetSol solution is the first concept and proven practical solution for the emerging and developing countries. It enables an approach, which seeks to introduce and implement the different elements or modules as an integrated and total solution, in which modules have been clearly designed to work independently but enmesh and provide the complete management and administration environment.

HOSPITAL MANAGEMENT INFORMATION SYSTEM.

The global healthcare industry is growing at a fast rate and is one of the areas that have the most urgent need of automation. NetSol understands this need and has developed a strategic collaboration with Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital & Research Center, Lahore as part of a long term commitment for IT development in the global Health Sector.

Our system is designed to provide the capability to overlay, analyze, design and reengineer the core of the healthcare processes with a business process management (BPM) suite, encompassing the rules and responsibilities in a manner which facilitates change, new rules, process variations, and scale of deployment, best summarize our combined approach.

NetSol regularly works to fulfill its role as a technology partner of the Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital & Research Centre for a solution that will act as an automated, secure and integrated solution for any hospitals’ clinical, financial and management needs. First implementation is currently underway for a hospital for the armed forces.  NetSol’s system includes a clinical module (including outpatient and inpatient management, physician and order management, pharmacy management, radiology, nuclear medicine, pathology and operation theater management); an administrative module; a financial module; and, a research module.

Corporate Social Responsibility

NetSol believes it should give back to the community and employees as much as possible.  Therefore, approximately six programs have been established either in Pakistan or on a global basis to achieve this goal.

Pakistan Flood Relief. - - The devastation and long lasting effects of the recent Monsoon floods in Pakistan, the worse in 80 years, has resulted in the establishment of a fund raising effort both in Pakistan and by our employees worldwide.  The program permits our employees to pledge up to 2% of their salary, through direct salary deduction each month, to relief efforts.  NetSol has committed to matching these contributions up to the percentages stated and to commit all funds to relief and rescue agencies operating in affected areas. Most of the NetSol PK employees have signed up for this program. Senior company executives have committed as much as 10% of their salaries to this cause.  Employees in countries which provide tax benefits for charitable contributions also have the opportunity to donate through recognized tax-exempt relief agencies with company matching contributions.

Literacy Program--NetSol has launched a “Literacy Program” to educate low paid illiterate employees of the organization. The main objective of this program is to enable these resources to acquire basic reading, writing and arithmetic skills. The first phase of the plan is nearing completion with astounding accomplishments; the people who could not even write a single word are now able to write complete letters within a span of 6 months. This initiative has been extremely successful and NetSol intends to further support this program.

Noble Cause Fund--A noble cause fund has been established to meet medical and education expenses of the children of the low paid employees. NetSol employees voluntarily contribute a fixed amount every month to the fund and the Company matches the employee subscriptions with an equivalent amount contribution. A portion of this fund is utilized to support social needs of certain institutions and individuals, outside NetSol.

Day Care Facility--NetSol’s human resources are its key assets and thus the company takes numerous steps to ensure the provision of basic comforts to its employees. In Pakistan, the provision of outside pre-school child care is a rarity.  Recently, a Child Day Care facility has been created in close proximity to the work premises equipped with the necessary essential staff and equipment. Married female employees are offered the opportunity to entrust complete care of their young ones to a trained and experienced staff. Child day care allows female employees to pay unhindered focused attention to work requirements while their child remains safe and comfortable. The premises and environment are neat and clean with all basic needs fulfilled to ensure complete care of the children.

Preventative Health Care Program--In addition to the comprehensive out-patient and in-patient medical benefits, preventive health care has also been introduced. This phased program focuses on vaccination of our employees against Hepatitis – A/B, Tetanus, Typhoid and Flu, etc. This is a regular annual immunization program to keep employees healthy.

NetSol Corporate University-- NetSol Corporate University (“NCU”) was established for developing human resources at NetSol. A need was felt to further develop and retain the talent at hand through strategic learning interventions to respond to growing competition and challenges.

The mission of NCU is:
 
§
To discover, develop, and deploy the talent at NetSol
 
§
To nurture leadership in people and processes
 
§
To explore and develop capable backups for positions critical to organizational continuity

NetSol office in Beijing, China

As part of our growth strategy and in view of the desire to better serve our markets, NetSol established a sales office in Beijing, China.  This office is both a sales and marketing location and a liaison office for the Company’s ongoing operations and implementation services for Daimler Financial Services, BMW and other clients in the country.  The office is managed by NetSol PK.  While western markets have suffered tremendously due to the severe recession, the Chinese markets have held up.  Due to the growing demand for NetSol’s NFS™ offering in China, we have hired local Chinese staff in addition to the Pakistani staff to support the demand surge.

NetSol Bangkok, Thailand

To further strengthen our presence in the Asia-Pacific market, and to provide exclusive services to our clients, the Company recently formed an Amity Treaty Company in Thailand with an office in Bangkok.  This support office’s core responsibilities are to enhance business through targeting potential customers and providing technical support to the Company’s existing clients in Thailand.

The Americas

NETSOL TECHNOLOGIES NORTH AMERICA, INC.

The operational assets of NetSol Technologies North America, Inc. (“NTNA”) were initially integrated into the Company in 2006 as a result of the acquisition of McCue Systems, Inc. The division has been restructured and reorganized both at the management and business levels with several new senior sales and marketing personnel replacing less senior personnel in the third and fourth quarters of 2009.  The US subsidiary is headed by Mr. Imran Haider, COO. He has been with NetSol for over 8 years with an internationally proven track record in sales, marketing, and project and client relations management. Mr. Haider is a domain expert in NetSol core business offerings. NTNA is a very significant component of the global NetSol Group. In the wake of the recent recession, we embarked on strategic restructuring of NTNA. The successful concept of global delivery capabilities was implemented in NTNA to best leverage NetSol’s BestShoring®. This integration coupled with the optimum utilization of technical teams in NTNA and globally, makes us better equipped to provide best results to our clients worldwide with improved gross margins.

The NTNA sales and marketing efforts have been combined with the global sales group. This approach has brought new dimension and business visibility to the entire sales and marketing organization. This further strengthens the cross selling and global resource mobilization to better serve our customers anywhere in the world.

NTNA provides client requirement-based solutions across multiple technology practices, in both the public and private sectors, with the largest practice being the leasing technology vertical.

Offered services include customized application development, a full range of Quality Assurance (QA) services, customized strategic report design, and business intelligence tool development.

In leveraging the Company’s global footprint, blue chip customer base and BestShoring® initiatives, we believe NTNA provides an integrated North American presence to our global offering of software and services based solutions to the lease and finance industry.  Not only does this provide a U.S. base of operations and footprint for NetSol, but makes NetSol the only company focusing on the commercial and consumer lease/finance marketplace with actual live implementations within nearly every region of the globe, including, U.S., Canada, Europe, Asia-Pacific and the Far East.

To further bolster NetSol’s Solutions capabilities, in October 2008, NetSol acquired Ciena Solutions, a preferred SAP and Business Objects integration firm.

Europe

NETSOL TECHNOLOGIES EUROPE, LTD.

Headed by Naeem Ghauri as Director and President, NetSol Technologies Europe, Ltd (“NTE”) has been an integral part of the Company since February 2005 when NetSol acquired 100% of CQ Systems Ltd., an IT products and service company based in the UK.  This acquisition provides NetSol with access to a broad European customer base using IT solutions complementary to NetSol’s LeaseSoft product. NetSol has leveraged NTE’s knowledge base and strong presence in the Asset Finance market to launch LeaseSoft in the UK and continental Europe.  Under Mr. Ghauri’s leadership as head of Global Sales, NTE’s strong sales and marketing capability is being maximized as the coordinator of global sales.

Products

NTE’s recent LeaseSoft win with a major European bank is a strong vindication of our strategy to leverage our global expertise to develop and market regional solutions while successfully servicing our clients’ specific needs. Our LeaseSoft solutions, with enhanced business coverage for the European markets, are geared to provide a quick return on investment to our clients as well as generate a new revenue driver for the group. The new European LeaseSoft multi-product portfolio has gathered strong initial traction, in a relatively short time, and reflects the growing strength of our product and customer presence in Europe.

A part of NTE’s successful integration has included the continued leverage of the Company’s high quality but lower cost resources in its offshore development center in Lahore, Pakistan.  This phase of the transition plan has been completed whereby a dedicated team of software engineers and testers have been trained on the NTE product suite and most of the quality assurance, documentation and some of the NTE products core software development activities have been transitioned to Lahore.  NTE has been able to implement significant productivity and cost improvements which have included realizing the higher level of cost efficiencies of using the Lahore offshore facility for software development and quality assurance.

Like all NetSol companies, NTE has seen its sales and revenues focus increasingly on total client services rather than on a purely, one-off, product based model.  Roughly two-thirds of the new sales for NTE came from products which did not exist when the company was purchased by NetSol.  The total client services model has seen an expansion from a solely back office based product to a greater front office focus. This front office focus tends to be highly customized as the initial interface for the customer.  NTE’s auto decision component was developed sooner than any competitors and together with its web-based portal, is one of the many front ends solutions that NTE has implemented.

In addition to offering all NetSol products, NTE products include: 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 indexation and branding of all outbound and inbound documents; LeaseSoft Auto-Decision Engine- developed to provide automation of credit checking and underwriting for standards based financial products; LeaseSoft EDI Manager- introduced to facilitate process automation between business introducers and funders; and, Evolve- launched to provide an entry level software package for own book brokerages and small to medium size funders.

NTE has recently performed significant updates on the core product and customer systems to ensure compliance with the onerous CCA2006 legislation.  NTE has further implemented significant development enhancements, including a major development for the collections module with significant automation of the arrears handling and collections.

While not a current focus, the Company will explore mergers and acquisition opportunities with a focus on strategic acquisitions that provide immediate, strong, bottom line benefits.  Management believes that an ideal target will fulfill one or many of these criteria:  geographic synergy/providing a foot print in a market; unique and/or complimentary product lines; provide additional, and cost effective development hubs, or complimentary or target customers in a previously untapped market.  While there is no guaranty that an acquisition which appears to be sound will ultimately benefit the Company, management continues to analyze the price, value and market of any potential target.  The model of targeting well established, profitable product companies, within NetSol’s domain, management believes, has proven successful with our recent acquisitions.  Management believes this model can be replicated over the next three years.

Although a few planned initiatives were abandoned due to decline in sales, selective new marketing initiatives have either been launched or are in the pipeline. These programs are designed to create brand awareness and to deliver our message directly to our target group. As the Company has evolved in the past few years, the number of solutions and service offerings has grown manifolds. The depth and breadth of our products and services would be more effectively marketed by participation in more industry events, advertising, holding seminars, delivering keynote addresses and creating more channel distribution. Our key marketing initiatives have been designed to transition the brand equity built by the NTNA and NTE brands to the Company as a whole.

Our dedicated marketing personnel, within the geographical units, undertake a variety of marketing activities, including sponsoring focused client events to demonstrate our skills and products, sponsoring and participating in targeted conferences and holding private briefings with individual companies.

NetSol-Innovation

In November 2004, the Company entered into a joint venture agreement with the Innovation Group (formerly referred to as TiG), NetSol-Innovation (Pvt) Ltd. (“NetSol-Innovation”), a Pakistani company, provides support services enabling the Innovation Group to scale solution delivery operations in key growth markets. NetSol-Innovation operations are centered in NetSol’s IT Village, Lahore, Pakistan. NetSol owns a majority of the venture. The entities share in the profits of the joint venture on the basis of their shareholding.  The outsourcing model between the Innovation Group and NetSol involves services pertaining to business analyses, configuration, testing, software quality assurance (SQA), technical communication as well as project management for development software for the Innovation Group.  Today, NetSol has developed extensive expertise across the insurance domain and has become a center of excellence.

NetSol Connect (Pvt) Limited

In August 2003, NetSol entered into an agreement with United Kingdom based Akhter Group PLC (Akhter).  Under the terms of the agreement, Akhter Group acquired 49.9% of the Company’s subsidiary; Pakistan based NetSol Connect (Pvt) Ltd., an Internet service provider (ISP) in Pakistan.  In fiscal year 2004, NetSol Connect steadily grew its presence in three cities (Karachi, Lahore and Islamabad) by acquiring a small Internet online company called Raabta Online. This created a national presence for wireless broadband business in key markets that have experienced explosive growth. NetSol Connect with its new laser and wireless technologies has a potential to become a major brand in Pakistan.  The partnership with Akhter Computers is designed to rollout the services of connectivity and wireless to the Pakistani national market.  Following the end of this fiscal year, NetSol acquired Akhter Group’s 49.9% interest for $180,000 cash, resulting in NetSol Connect becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of NetSol.  With this move, management expects to expand our business offering to participate in the local public sector and to further rebuild the telecom business. As a cost saving step, we have now closed down NetSol’s Karachi, Pakistan office and combined the operations with the NetSol Connect operation and premises.

NetSol Connect (Pvt) Ltd. will continue to seek to grow revenues. The revenue contribution for NetSol Connect during the current fiscal year was $542,521 or about 1.48% of revenues.  The total net loss was $17,752 before adjusting the minority interest in losses.

NTPK (Thailand) Co. Limited

NetSol formed a company under the laws of Thailand, NTPK (Thailand) Company Limited, as an Amity Treaty Company. While formally completed during the quarter ended March 31, 2010, registration of the Company was recorded retroactively to the date of submission of all final documents, or December 18, 2009. The Company was formed with an initial contribution of 4 million baht or $123,258.

NTPK Thailand contributed approximately $1.8 million in revenue during the current fiscal year or 4.89% of the Company’s revenues. The total net profit was, approximately, $1.71 million.

Technology Campus

Due to the Company’s global growth, the NetSol development infrastructure has required expansion.  Management and the Board have approved the construction of a new structure behind the current NetSol tower in Lahore. To date, the initial piling work has been completed with construction expected to be completed within two years.

The original Technology Campus was completed in May 2004 and the Lahore operations relocated to the facilities in May 2004.  The facility was formally inaugurated by the former Prime Minister of Pakistan H.E. Shaukat Aziz on March 4, 2005. The campus has been declared a Software Technology Park by the Government of Pakistan. The Government has also financed the linking of the campus with the high speed fiber optic backbone capable of providing 155 MB internet bandwidth. The Internet bandwidth is effectively utilized to offer state of the art video conferencing and VOIP (Voice over IP) facilities for effective and seamless communication with our global customer base.  Encompassing a covered area of more than 55,000 square feet and housing over 600 professionals, this is one of the largest such facilities for IT services in the region.  During the current fiscal year, NetSol PK needed to expand its space due to its growth.  It has made arrangements with the owner of the adjacent land to build an office to the Company’s specifications and the Company agreed to help pay for the development of the land in exchange for discounted rent for the next three years. In addition, NetSol PK has begun work on building a new building behind the current one.  The enhancement of infra-structure is necessary to meet the company’s growth in local and international business. In addition to being the headquarters for NetSol’s subsidiaries in Pakistan, it also serves the NetSol group’s global services and products development facility.  The CMMI Level 5 rated facility ensures quality engineering practices to its clients across the globe.  The campus site is located in Pakistan's second largest city, Lahore, with a population of six million. An educational and cultural center, the city is home to most of the leading technology oriented academia of Pakistan including names like LUMS, NU-FAST & UET. These institutions are also the source of quality IT resources for the Company. Lahore is a modern city with high-quality communication, solid infrastructure and a well-laid out road network. The Technology campus is located a very short distance from the newly constructed advanced and modern Lahore International Airport. This campus is the first purpose built software building with state of the art technology and communications infrastructure in Pakistan. The investment made by the company in developing this technology campus is proving to be highly effective in attracting new business not only from global blue chip customers but also from the fast developing Pakistan market.

People and Culture

The Company believes it has developed a strong corporate culture that is critical to its success. Its key values are delivering world-class quality software, client-focused timely delivery, leadership, long-term relationships, creativity, openness and transparency and professional growth. The services provided by NetSol require proficiency in many fields, such as software engineering, project management, business analysis, technical writing, sales and marketing, communication and presentation skills. Every one of our software developers is proficient in the English language.  English is the second most spoken language in Pakistan and is mandatory in middle and high schools.

To encourage all employees to build on our core values, we reward teamwork and promote individuals who demonstrate these values. NetSol offers all of its employees the opportunity to participate in its stock option program. Also, the Company has an intensive orientation program for new employees to introduce our core values and a number of internal communications and training initiatives defining and promoting these core values. We believe that our growth and success are attributable in large part to the high caliber of our employees and our commitment to maintain the values on which our success has been based.  NetSol worldwide is an equal opportunity employer.  NetSol attracts professionals not just from Pakistan, where it is very well known, but also IT professionals living overseas.

Management believes it has been successful in capitalizing on the “Reverse Brain Drain” phenomenon whereby it has been able to attract and retain highly qualified and suitably experienced IT and management professionals working overseas and returning to Pakistan.  These include senior management as well as software development professionals that directly contribute to the organization’s improvement of various engineering processes and procedures at NetSol.

NetSol believes it has gathered, over the course of many years, a team of very loyal, dedicated and committed employees.  Their continuous support and belief in the management has been demonstrated by their further investment of cash. Most of these employees have exercised their millions of stock options.  Management believes that its employees are the most invaluable asset of NetSol.

Overall, NetSol as a global IT company has over 20% female employees with the biggest concentration in our development facility in Lahore and in the U.S. headquarters. The Company is an equal opportunity employer. Being a successful company with a well respected name in the business community, NetSol encourages its employees to actively participate and contribute to charitable contributions for catastrophic tragedies anywhere in the globe.

There is significant competition for employees with the skills required to perform the services we offer. The company runs an elaborate training program for different cadre of employees ranging from technical knowledge, business domains as well as communication, management and leadership skills.  The Company believes that it has been successful in its efforts to attract and retain the highest level of talent available, in part because of the emphasis on core values, training and professional growth. We intend to continue to recruit, hire and promote employees who share this vision.

As of June 30, 2010, we had 732 full-time employees and 11 part-time employees; comprised of 572 IT project and technical personnel in Pakistan, UK, Australia, China, Thailand and US; and 171 non-IT personnel in Pakistan, UK, Australia and US.  The non-IT personnel include 16 employees in management, 47 employees in sales and marketing, 29 employees in accounting, 16 in customer support, and 63 in general and administration.  None of our employees are subject to a collective bargaining agreement. Our telecom subsidiary, NetSol Connect, has 48 full time employees based in Karachi, Pakistan, which are included in the total full-time employee count.

Competition

Neither a single company, nor a small number of companies, dominates the IT market in the space in which the Company competes. A substantial number of companies offer services that overlap and are competitive with those offered by NetSol. Some of these are large industrial firms, including computer manufacturers and computer consulting firms that have greater financial resources than NetSol and, in some cases, may have greater capacity to perform services similar to those provided by NetSol.

In the LeaseSoft business space, the barriers to entry are getting higher. The products are getting more cutting edge while richness in functionality is paramount. Older companies have prolonged the life of their legacy products by creating web-based front ends, while the core of the systems has not been re-engineered.

 
19
 

In the case of NFS™, we compete chiefly against leading suppliers of IT solutions to the financial industry, including names such as Fimasys, International Decision Systems (IDS), Data Scan, CHP Consulting, 3i Infotech, Finnone and Nucleus Software.

In the IT based business services areas, we compete with both smaller local firms and many global IT services providers, including names such as Wipro, InfoSys, Satyam Infoway, HCL and TCS (Tata Consulting).

Our competition is based primarily in high cost locations in the US, UK and Europe as opposed to NetSol with its facility in Lahore. NetSol is now the only company in the leasing and finance solution space that provides regional solutions in North America, Europe and Asia Pacific.  In addition, it is the only company in this space that is publicly listed and provides an offshore development infrastructure with CMMI level 5 accreditation.

Some of the competitors of the Company are International Decisions Systems, EDW, Data Scan, AIPAC, CHP, KPMG, LMK Resources, Systems Innovation (Si3), Bearing Point, Kalsoft, Systems Limited, Oratech Pakistan, TechAccess Pakistan a few others. These companies are scattered worldwide geographically. In terms of offshore development, we are in competition with some of the Indian companies such as Wipro, HCL, TCS, InfoSys, Satyam Infoway and others. Many of the competitors of NetSol have longer operating history, larger client bases, and longer relationships with clients, greater brand or name recognition and significantly greater financial, technical, and public relations resources than NetSol. Existing or future competitors may develop or offer services that are comparable or superior to ours at a lower price, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Customers

Some of the customers of NetSol include: Mercedes Benz Financial Services (Australia, Japan, New Zealand, Singapore, South Korea, Thailand, China and Taiwan), Yamaha Motors Finance Australia, Toyota Motors Finance China, Toyota Leasing Thailand, Finlease Commercial Bank Mauritius, CNH Capital Australia, Fiat Automotive Finance China, Dongfeng Nissan Auto Finance China, BMW Financial Services China, BMW Japan, Al Amthal Leasing Saudi Arabia, GMAC China, SANY Corporation China, GAC Sofinco, China and Minsheng Bank Corp China. Volkswagen Credit U.S. & Canada; Hyundai Motor Finance; Keycorp Leasing; Chase Equipment Finance; National City Commercial Credit; City National Bank; and, Terex Corporation  In addition, NetSol provides offshore development and testing services to The Innovation Group Plc UK and their blue chip global insurance giants like Allstate, Cendent, etc. NetSol-Innovation contributes to about 6.01% of NetSol’s revenues. NetSol is also a strategic business partner for Daimler (which consists of a group of many companies), which accounts for approximately 8.57% of our revenue. Toyota Motors (which consists of a group of many companies) accounts for approximately 4.51% of our revenues. Nissan Auto Finance (which consists of a group of many companies) accounts for approximately 7.21% of our revenues.  However no single client represents more than 10% of the revenue for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010.

As compared to the previous year, NetSol PK has gone a step further by providing consultancy services to private and public sector organizations so as to improve their quality of operations and services in addition to winning strategically important assignments within the E-Governance domain for organizations of national significance in Pakistan, including the Officer of the Prime Minister Secretariat, Ministry of Health and Establishment Division.  As compared to the previous year, NetSol PK was able to execute a number of services contracts within the local Pakistani public and defense sectors.  In 2009, NetSol PK continued to make strides in the land recording sector by winning two pilot projects in different cities of Pakistan.  This year also, NetSol was able to secure a major defense sector hospital for its HMIS solution.  Our clients include private as well as public sector enterprises.  The NetSol service portfolio has now diversified into a comprehensive supply chain management solution, video security & surveillance initiative, HR solutions, financial management system, BPR services, consultancy services, application development turnkey project offerings, solutions engineering and systems integration initiatives.

Web Presence

The Company is committed to regaining and extending the advantages of its direct model approach by moving even greater volumes of product sales, service and support to the Internet. The Internet provides greater convenience and efficiency to customers and, in turn, to the Company. The company maintains two corporate websites, www.NetSoltech.com and www.NetSolpk.com for its Global and Pakistani audience, respectively. NetSol’s software development and SQA team as well as its clients use its web based customer relationship management solution (HelpDesk) for timely and direct communication, as part of providing ongoing support and maintenance services. More details can be found on http://www.netsolhelp.com.

Through the company’s web sites, its customers, both existing and potential, and investors can access a wide range of information about its product offerings, and support and technical matters.

Corporate Structure

The Company's corporate headquarters are in Calabasas, California.  Nearly 70% of the programming and development is carried out at NetSol’s technology campus in Lahore, Pakistan. The other 30% of development is conducted in the Proximity Development Center or "PDC" in Horsham, UK, Beijing, China and the U.S. development facility located in the San Francisco Bay Area of California. This signifies the ‘BestShoring®’ model by providing the best services at the most efficient pricing model. The marketing effort is shared and coordinated between the primary divisions operating at NetSol PK. in Lahore, Pakistan; NetSol UK, NTE in the UK; and NTNA in the U.S.  US marketing operations are conducted through the parent and NTNA.  These are the core operating companies engaged in developing and marketing IT solutions and software development and marketing.  An initiative is underway to unify the look and feel of all advertising, branding and marketing material.

NetSol UK, together with NTE, services and supports the clients in the UK and Europe. NetSol PK services and supports the customers in the Asia Pacific and South Asia regions.  NTNA, together with the parent, supports all of the North American customers.

While political unrest continues to challenge Pakistan, World Bank reports rank Pakistan as the 60th country in the ease of doing business ahead of both China and India. According to the A.T. Kearney, Global Service Location Index 2009, Pakistan remains among the top 20 Off-Shoring IT destinations.

The IT and telecommunication sector is the fastest growing sector in Pakistan mostly due to growing privatization, relaxed policies and a 15 year tax holiday on IT exports of services and products. These policies have strongly encouraged companies, like NetSol, to enhance its infrastructure and develop a solid and formidable team of IT professionals.

The Company has seen noticeable demand from APAC and UAE region to use NetSol PK development infrastructure that offers competitive price and technology advantage to serve its customers.

A few of NetSol’s major successes achieved in 2009-2010 were:

• 
Executing a successful joint venture agreement with Atheeb Group
• 
Further expansion in the China market by adding new customers
• 
Certification of our smartOCI™ by SAP for integration into SAP applications
• 
First Chinese Bank customer, Minsheng Bank Corp.
 
•
Recertification of CMMi Level 5 accreditation by the successful completion of an audit commenced in the 4th quarter by Carnegie Mellon University certified consultants.
 
•
Completely restructured the management and infrastructure of NTNA
 
•
Launched NetSol Thai, a new subsidiary in Thailand
 
•
Globally integrated the delivery capabilities with NetSol PK, while streamlining and securing the data in UK location as an emergency response plan.

From the point of view of the interests of our foreign partners and customers in NetSol, Pakistan remains a safe place to do business. The specific successes achieved from the acquisitions of CQ Systems (NTE) and McCue Systems (NTNA) endorses the fact that Pakistan is a safe place to do business when compared to many other troubled spots in the globe. Our best and proven business case is the NetSol - Innovation Group joint venture. This represents the best example of not only NetSol’s capabilities but the ability of a Pakistan based company to achieve off shore business model success for a Western based company.  This joint venture provides the major US and UK customers of Innovation Group in the UK with world class service from NetSol Pakistan, enhancing the client’s productivity at much more attractive prices.  Under any geo-political challenges, the Company is quite prepared in any contingency to use alternate development facilities located in Beijing (China), Horsham (UK) and Alameda, California (USA).

Organization

NetSol Technologies, Inc. (formerly NetSol International, Inc.) was founded in 1997 and is organized as a Nevada corporation.  The Company amended its Articles of Incorporation on March 20, 2002 to change its name to NetSol Technologies, Inc.

The success of the Company, in the near term, will depend, in large part, on the Company's ability to: (a) continue to grow revenues and improve profits, (b) raise funds for continued operations and growth; (c) make a major entry in the US market and, (d) streamline sales and marketing efforts in the Asia Pacific region, Europe, China and the Middle East, Japan and Australia. However, management's outlook for the continuing operations, which has been consolidated and has been streamlined, remains optimistic and bullish. With continued emphasis on a shift in product mix towards the higher margin consulting services, the Company anticipates to be able to continue to improve operating results at its core by reducing costs and improving gross margins. Management has effectively achieved a seamless transition and integration of NTE and NTNA with NetSol’s front end and back end operations.

Intellectual Property

The Company relies upon a combination of nondisclosure and other contractual arrangements, as well as common law trade secret, copyright and trademark laws to protect its proprietary rights. The Company enters into confidentiality agreements with its employees, generally requires its consultants and clients to enter into these agreements, and limits access to and distribution of its proprietary information.   The NetSol logo and name, as well as the NFS logo and product name have been copyrighted and trademark registered in Pakistan.   The NetSol logo and BestShoring® name has been registered with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office.  The Company intends to trademark and copyright its intellectual property as necessary and in the appropriate jurisdictions.

Governmental Approval and Regulation

Current Company operations do not require specific governmental approvals.  Like all companies, including those with multinational subsidiaries, we are subject to the laws of the countries in which the Company maintains subsidiaries and conducts operations.   Pakistani law allows a tax exemption on income from exports of IT services and products up to 2016.  While foreign based companies may invest in Pakistan, repatriation of their investment, in the form of dividends or other methods, requires approval of the State Bank of Pakistan.  The present Pakistani government has effectively reformed the policies and regulations effecting foreign investors and multinational companies thus, making Pakistan an attractive and friendly country in which to do business.

ITEM 6- MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS AND PLAN OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion is intended to assist in an understanding of NetSol’s financial position and results of operations for the year ended June 30, 2010.

Forward Looking Information

This report contains certain forward-looking statements and information relating to NetSol that is based on the beliefs of 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 NetSol or its management, are intended to identify forward-looking statements.  These statements reflect management’s current view of NetSol 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 inaccurate, actual results may vary materially from those described in this report as anticipated, estimated or expected.  NetSol’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 NetSol’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 is built.  NetSol does not intend to update these forward-looking statements.

Management undertook major steps to counter the deep effect of global recession, such as:

 
o
In 2009-2010, to enhance productivity and cost efficiencies, the concept of Global Delivery Model has been implemented.   Without moving the source codes of US products or UK products to Lahore, Pakistan, we have integrated the local developers / engineers / programming resources with PK technology group teams. This model would eventually create much stronger band width for customers worldwide but also have the same interfacing local management available for regional clients. In essence, the concept of BestShoring® model is effectively being executed.

 
o
The global delivery model would further streamline the cost base as well as optimum utilization of NetSol Center of Excellence, CMMI Level 5 technology campus and translate into better and more competitive pricing modules for our customers.

 
o
Revamped sales organization from several departments into one group. The newly created global sales organization under one president of global sales, centrally headquartered in the UK, would provide much improved visibility and traction in all key markets worldwide. In addition to achieving critical mass and visibility the regional sales heads have been created to directly report to President Group Sales.

 
o
Key senior and middle management personnel were relocated in China, USA and UK to best leverage the talent across the globe and cost rationalization.

 
o
Substantially reduced office costs by relocating NTNA staff from Emeryville, California to Alameda, California by entering a new office lease that will save nearly $1.0 million in annual rent and maintenance expenses.

 
o
Engaged RedChip Companies, Inc. to lead its investor relations programs. RedChip’s highly professional team, who specialize in the capital market space, was engaged to strengthen our public relations and assist in building strong relationships with current and prospective investors.

 
o
Some marketing and new project activities had to be slowed down due to the poor economy but the most strategic new product development and research and development activities has increased. Management’s vision is that a one product global solution is the key initiative that will place NetSol in the next level of critical mass solutions providers.

Business Development Activities:

 
·
NetSol launched a long term strategy in 2008 to get NetSol brand and name recognition in UAE and GCC States by a dual listing on DIFX (now the NASDAQ DUBAI exchange). Management believes that the signing of a joint venture agreement with a very well established Saudi Arabian business conglomerate represents a major break-through for the Company.  The joint venture is a relationship between NetSol Technologies, Inc. and the Atheeb Group of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (“KSA”). NetSol owns 51% and Atheeb owns 49% of the newly created Atheeb NetSol, Ltd. to be based in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Atheeb has been in operation since 1985 and has major businesses in defense, public works, telecom, financial, transportation and agriculture. By partnering with Atheeb through a joint venture, NetSol gains access to not only major local projects in key sectors but also to regional economies in GCC states, Central Asia and Africa. The influence and reputation of Atheeb in the KSA and regional markets is compelling, and NetSol expects to benefit handsomely in coming years. The joint venture will fully utilize NetSol PK’s Lahore based center of excellence, CMMI Level 5 technology campus.

 
·
The acquisition of Ciena Solutions for SAP services has been effectively integrated with NetSol’s operation. Our new SAP services and offerings are being marketed to our existing US based clients and new markets to establish a key new vertical.   The US clients list includes a major energy utility company in California. Additionally, we believe a majority of NetSol global clients could benefit from SAP services and solutions. The Company is beta testing its product, SMART OCI, a search engine to expand its SAP product portfolio. The practice was recently awarded SAP PartnerEdge status as an SAP services partner.

 
·
By expanding into the Americas, NetSol sees a strong opportunity to establish its brand recognition and create critical mass in the Americas.   Despite the recession and consolidations in the U.S., NetSol has embarked on an aggressive strategy to reposition and rebrand NetSol for the U.S markets. For example, NetSol is strategically rolling out offerings of the NetSol Financial Suite™ to our global auto manufacturers, whether captive or non-captive, in the North and South American markets.   NetSol sees a new market in Mexico, Brazil, Costa Rica and many countries in Latin America as both mature and emerging markets are ripe for our flagship NFS™ applications. NetSol added two new global customers to the Americas in Nissan’s North America and Mexican operations. In addition, NTNA is experiencing new enhancement and orders from a few existing clients in North America, reflecting confidence in our US team.

 
·
Management envisions a major growth in the Chinese market as China continues to have strong economic indicators amongst the major industrial countries. Auto sales in China have surpassed that of the US in numbers of unit sold. China continues to maintain a GDP rate of 8-9% in 2010, while some of the western markets are struggling with their economy. China’s market offers a tremendous opportunity to NetSol as being the leader in leasing and finance soft ware applications space. China is now the globe’s second largest economic power and its auto and banking sectors are growing at a dynamic pace, unlike the western markets. We are expanding the Beijing office and adding local staff. Our current ten multi-national customers in China have begun to expand their relationship with NetSol. We recently signed a few new deals with a few multinational auto companies and Minsheng Bank, one of the largest in China Management anticipates that the NFS™ products will demonstrate a noted break through with Chinese companies in coming months.

 
·
The European economy has shown serious decline and the severe impact of consolidation and budget cuts have started to intensely affect our business there. The European markets are expected to remain sluggish and we will hold off any further investment until next year. However, it appears that decisions made by some European nations signal economic recovery in the major European economies.

 
·
We expect top line growth through investment in organic marketing activities.
 
 
27
 

NetSol marketing activities will continue to:

 
·
Encourage organic revenue growth in the Chinese market in the automobile, banking, manufacturing and captive leasing sectors.
 
·
Expand the Beijing office with new local Chinese staff and senior business development and project management teams.
 
·
Further penetrate the Asia Pacific markets by selling NetSol offerings in the key and robust markets of Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Thailand, South Korea and, Japan.
 
·
Expand Thailand operations with the aim of making it a second hub, after China. A few senior business development teams have been mobilized and relocated in Thailand to support the new business development efforts in the APAC region.
 
·
While consolidating the development and sales teams, further build and expand in the North America market.  As the most mature and largest market for the Company’s solutions, North America will remain key to new revenue in the coming years.  NetSol’s existing product line including LeasePak and its modules will remain as a primary offering to support our existing customers.
 
·
NetSol SAP practice will enhance the revenue and add new customers for SAP consulting service, staffing & proprietary bolt-on software offerings.
 
·
Expand and support the new and innovative road map of more capable and robust solutions to the existing 30 plus US customers.
 
·
Increase marketing activities by participating in major forums such as ELFA (the Equipment Leasing & Finance Association) in North America and many other selected international forums to grow NetSol business and image.
 
·
Test market NFS™ new generation products with key global customers.
 
·
Expand and win new customers in the Middle Eastern markets through a recently formed joint venture with Atheeb Group in the KSA. This will include sectors in leasing, banking, defense and public areas.
 
·
Optimize Lahore’s center of excellence in emerging and growing markets in Middle East.
 
·
Grow new revenues in public and defense sectors in Pakistan.

Funding and Investor Relations:

Management anticipates, but there is no guaranty, that as the price of the Company’s shares of common stock will rise, as quoted on the Nasdaq Capital Market, and that:

 
·
Officers may exercise options that are currently in the money;
 
·
Company may look to raise new capital through debt or common stock offerings with friends of family investors which will be held for long term investment and require no payment of placement fees.
 
·
Exercise of warrants by major fund investors.

Investor Relations efforts will include:

 
·
Newly hired IR and PR firm will play a major part in expanding the new retail and institutional  investors base
 
·
Telling the NetSol story to sell side analysts, funds, portfolio managers and financial media
 
·
Aggressively position NetSol in front of major investors’ conferences and road shows to be organized by RedChip and other major institutions.
 
·
Push strategy with US mainstream media to build NetSol image and a ‘Niche’ business offering.
 
·
Founding management’s aim to continue to invest in the company is anticipated to display such management’s belief in NetSol’s potential to new investors.
 
·
Aggressively enhance the visibility and liquidity in NASDAQDUBAI exchange through road shows and Middle East focused investors’ conferences.
 
Improving the Bottom Line:

Management believes an essential improvement to the bottom line will be the successful completion of the acquisition of NTNA and NTE by NetSol PK. This acquisition completes the full integration of the entities resulting in improved operating costs. Additionally, the acquisition, which is accomplished by NetSol PK with the issuance of new shares of common stock of NetSol PK to the Company, will increase the Company’s ownership percentage of NetSol PK from 58% to 77%.  This change decreases the minority interest thus positively impacting the earnings per share.

 
28
 

This integration is anticipated to:

 
·
Improve pricing and fee structures.
 
·
Continue consolidation and reevaluating operating margins as ongoing activities.
 
·
Streamline further cost of goods sold to improve gross margins to historical levels over 60%, as sales ramp up.
 
·
Generate higher revenues per employee, enhance productivity and lower cost per employee.
 
·
Optimize the utilization of NetSol PK resources, infrastructure, processes and disciplines to maximize the bottom-line and fully leverage the cost arbitrage.
 
·
Grow process automation and leverage the best practices of CMMI level 5. Global delivery concept and integration will further improve both gross and net margins.
 
·
Cost efficient management of every operation and continue further consolidation to improve bottom line.
 
·
Reduced General and Administrative expense and expenses of marketing programs.
 
·
Retire Debt to reduce the interest cost significantly and to make every effort to avoid any one time charges.

Management continues to be focused on building its delivery capability and has achieved key milestones in that respect.  Key projects are being delivered on time and on budget, quality initiatives are succeeding, especially in maturing internal processes.

In a quest to continuously improve its quality standards, CMMI level companies are reassessed every three years by independent consultants under the standards of the Carnegie Mellon University to maintain its CMMI Level 5 quality certification.  As required, NetSol was reassessed in 2010 and was successfully recertified as CMMI Level 5.  We believe that the CMMI standards are a key reason in NetSol’s demand surge worldwide. We remain convinced that this trend will continue for all NetSol offerings promoting further beneficial alliances and increasing the number and quality of our global customers.  The quest for quality standards is imperative to NetSol’s overall sustainability and success.  In 2008, NetSol became ISO 27001 certified, a global standard and a set of best practices for Information Security Management.

MATERIAL TRENDS AFFECTING NETSOL

Management has identified the following material trends affecting NetSol.

Positive trends:

 
·
The global recession and consolidations have opened doors for low cost solution providers such as NetSol. The BestShoring® model of NetSol is a catalyst in today’s environment.

 
·
The global economic pressures and recession has shifted IT processes and technology to utilize both offshore and onshore solutions providers, to control the costs and improve ROIs.

 
·
China has become the second largest economy and has grown to over 9% GDP a year while other industrial nations have declined or grown marginally.
 
·
China’s automobile and banking sectors have been unaffected by the global meltdown and in fact have outgrown all other economies with their recent automobile sales statistics.
 
·
China sold 58 cars per 1,000 people as compared to 900 cars per 1,000 in the USA. There is a tremendous opportunity for NetSol’s penetration in China’s burgeoning leasing and finance market for NetSol.
 
·
The surviving IT companies, such as NetSol, with price advantage and a global presence, will gain further momentum as economic indicators turn positive. The bigger customers and targeted verticals are much more cost conscious and are seeking a better rate of return on investments in IT services. NetSol has an edge due to its BestShoring® model and proven track record of delivery and implementations worldwide.
 
·
NetSol has never lost a product customer despite the recent severe recession. The dependency of our blue chip clients on NetSol solutions has further elevated new enhancements and services orders in the US.

 
·
Improved outlook and earnings of bell weather technology companies in USA, reflecting the turnaround of this sector after recession.
 
·
The aid and support of trade in Pakistan from countries like the US, China, Saudi Arabia and other western and friendly countries seems to be growing recently. This will positively affect NetSol, local employees and customers worldwide. Pakistan has every potential to rise up as the plans for energy, power, agriculture and infrastructures (including 12 new dams to be built by Chinese companies) create a much better outlook and growth for Pakistan.

 
29
 

 
·
US AID and many other western agencies are diligently assisting the Pakistani people to improve literacy, education, poverty alleviation and healthcare programs. These initiatives will necessarily result in more graduates in science and technology areas.
 
·
Global opportunities to diversify delivery capabilities in new emerging economies that offer geopolitical stability and low cost IT resources reducing dependency upon Lahore technology campus.
 
·
Our global multi-national clients have continued to pursue deeper relationships in newer regions and countries. This reflects our customers’ dependencies and satisfaction with our NetSol Financial Suite of products.
 
·
The levy of Indian IT sector excise tax of 35% (NASSCOM) on software exports is very positive for NetSol. In Pakistan there is a 15 year tax holiday on IT exports of services. There are 7 more years remaining on this tax incentive.

Negative trends:

 
·
Geo political unrest due to extremism in the regions of Pakistan and Afghanistan.
 
·
The worst flooding disaster in Pakistan due to heavy monsoon rainfall has affected more than 20 million people. The rebuilding of the affected areas will distract the government of Pakistan and major   resources will be diverted to deal with the aftermath of this disaster.  Accordingly, management expects delays in major public and defense projects.
 
·
The emergence of many smaller players offering IT solutions in China has resulted in competition on pricing.
 
·
The sluggish European market, due to debt crisis, could lead to our European business suffering.
 
·
Dramatic and deep global recession has created a serious decline in business spending causing significant budget cuts for many of the Company’s target verticals.
 
·
Tightened liquidity and credit restrictions in consumer spending has either delayed or reduced spending on business solutions and systems squeezing IT budgets and elongating decision making cycles.
 
·
Tighter internal processes and budgets will cause delays in the receivables from few clients.
 
·
Challenged US auto sectors, banking and retail sectors, thus resulting in longer sales and closing cycles.
 
·
Anticipated worsening US deficit and rise in inflation in coming years would further put stress on consumers and business spending.
 
·
Unrest and growing war in Afghanistan could increase the migration of both refugees and extremists to Pakistan, thus creating domestic and regional challenges.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Our financial statements and accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are affected by management’s application of accounting policies. Critical accounting policies for us include revenue recognition and multiple element arrangements, intangible assets, software development costs, and goodwill.

REVENUE RECOGNTION

The Company recognizes revenue from license contracts without major customization when a non-cancelable, non-contingent license agreement has been signed, delivery of the software has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable, and collectability is probable. Revenue from the sale of licenses with major customization, modification, and development is recognized on a percentage of completion method. Revenue from the implementation of software is recognized on a percentage of completion method.
Revenue from consulting services is recognized as the services are performed for time-and-materials contracts. Revenue from training and development services is recognized as the services are performed. Revenue from maintenance agreements is recognized ratably over the term of the maintenance agreement, which in most instances is one year.

 
30
 

MULTIPLE ELEMENT ARRANGEMENTS

We enter into multiple element revenue arrangements in which a customer may purchase a number of different combinations of software licenses, consulting services, maintenance and support, as well as training and development (multiple-element arrangements).
VSOE of fair value for each element is based on the price for which the element is sold separately. We determine the VSOE of fair value of each element based on historical evidence of our stand-alone sales of these elements to third-parties or from the stated renewal rate for the elements contained in the initial software license arrangement. When VSOE of fair value does not exist for any undelivered element, revenue is deferred until the earlier of the point at which such VSOE of fair value exists or until all elements of the arrangement have been delivered. The only exception to this guidance is when the only undelivered element is maintenance and support or other services, then the entire arrangement fee is recognized ratably over the performance period.

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 over three years, whichever method results in a higher level of amortization.

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.
 
The company does impairment testing of the goodwill on an annual basis at the balance sheet date i.e., June 30th. In addition to our annual internal impairment testing, the Company retains the services of an independent valuation specialist to validate our findings.
 
The source of the Company’s goodwill relates to the acquisition of three companies namely NetSol PK Tech, CQ Systems, UK and McCue Systems, USA. NetSol PK Tech operates in the Asia Pacific region; CQ Systems (currently NetSol Technologies Europe Limited) operates in Europe; and McCue Systems (currently NetSol Technologies North America, Inc.) operates in the North American region. All these geographies are considered as different reporting units (segments). Goodwill arising from the acquisition of these companies has been allocated to their respective geographical segments to which they relate. While identifying reporting units/ segments, the Company takes into consideration the reports reviewed by the CEO (chief operating decision maker). As our financial reports are analyzed on this regional basis, we have defined this as segment reporting for purposes of goodwill impairment testing. Reporting unit wise detail of goodwill as of June 30, 2010 and 2009 is given below:

 
31
 
 
Reporting Units
  
2010
    
2009
  
Asia Pacific
   $ 1,303,372     $ 1,303,372  
Europe
     3,471,813       3,471,813  
North America
     4,664,100       4,664,100  
Total
   $ 9,439,285     $ 9,439,285  
 
There was no impairment of goodwill for the years ended June 30, 2010 and 2009. A number of factors are taken into consideration while calculating the fair value of the reporting units. These factors include the projected after tax earnings of the reporting unit, industry price earnings ratio and a reasonable discount rate to arrive at the actual fair value of the reporting unit.
 
As the fair value of all reporting units substantially exceeded the carrying values, no impairment was identified in the consolidated financial statements. The following table sets forth the percentage by which the fair value exceeds the carrying value for all reporting units as on June 30, 2010:
 
Reporting Units
  
Percentage by which fair
value exceeds carrying value
  
Asia Pacific
     92.78 %
Europe
     62.28 %
North America
     15.3 %
 
CASH RESOURCES
 
We were successful in improving our cash position by the end of our fiscal year, June 30, 2010 with $4.08 million in cash worldwide. In addition, $892,009 was injected by the exercise of options and sale of equity in 2010.

We note that the total consolidated net revenue for fiscal year 2010 was $36,779,897 as compared to $26,448,177 in fiscal year 2009. This represents  a 39% increase in revenue.  Maintenance fee revenue increased 8% from $6,499,419 to $7,047,936. Revenue from services, which includes consulting and implementation, increased 3% from $15,162,426 to $15,574,853.  The activity for NetSol’s new license sales for NFS™ also improved significantly. License revenue increased by 196% from $4,786,332 in 2009 to $14,157,107 in 2010. This shows reliability of customers on our flagship product "NetSol Financial Suite™".

Due to the unprecedented and worldwide recession in 2008, a majority of the deals in pipeline were either parked or delayed by the expected and existing customers due to reduction in IT budgets. This delay also resulted in low license and services revenue in the year 2009. However, beginning in fiscal year 2010, those deals along with others were converted into contracts resulting in increased license revenue. Besides this, by 2009, our flagship product "NetSol Financial Suite™" has been established as a mature product for the Asia Pacific regional market and we have seen a remarkable increase in enquires creating demand for the product in the region. After the 2008 financial meltdown, we are seeing increased demand for our product in the leasing and financial sector. During the last two years we have built a very healthy pipeline which is translating into more license sales.

Due to the revision in our pricing policy, NFS™ license value in APAC is in the range of $1.0 to $2.0 million, without factoring in services maintenance and implementation fees.  Normally, NetSol negotiates 15-20% yearly maintenance contracts with customers. A number of large leasing companies will be looking to renew legacy applications. This places NetSol in a very strong position to capitalize on any upturn in IT spending by these companies.

The gross profit was $22,912,846 for year ended June 30, 2010, as compared with $9,249,843 for the same period of the previous year.  This is a 148% increase.  The gross profit percentage was 62% for the current fiscal year and 35% in the prior year.   The cost of sales was $13,867,048 in the current year compared to $17,198,334 in the prior year. The decrease in cost of sales is mainly due to cost rationalization measures taken by the company.

Operating expenses were $13,185,141 for the year ended June 30, 2010, as compared to, $15,733,012 for the year ended June 30, 2009, a decrease of 18% from the prior year.  The decrease is mainly attributable to reduction is salaries and provision for doubtful debts. Depreciation and amortization expense amounted to $1,609,854- and $1,973,997 for the year ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.  Combined salaries and wage costs were $3,026,275 and $3,443,390 for the comparable periods, respectively, or a decrease of $417,115 from the corresponding period last year. General and administrative expenses were $4,115,658 and $3,590,118 for the years ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, an increase of $525,540 or 15%. As a percentage of sales, these expenses were 11% in the current year compared to 14% in the prior year. The increase in costs is due to the expansion of Beijing and Bangkok sales offices, launching activities of a new joint venture in Saudi Arabia, severance and settlements with a few employees in the UK, Pakistan and USA, and increased travel and other expenses that supporting a large workforce entail.

Selling and marketing expenses reduced to $2,222,841 for the year ended June 30, 2010 as compared to $3,115,883 for the year ended June 30, 2009.  As a percentage of sales, these expenses were 6% in the current year compared to 11.8% in the prior year.  The Company provided for certain doubtful debts of $442,804 and $2,393,685, during the years ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Income from operations in fiscal year 2010 was $9,727,708 compared to a loss of $6,483,169 in fiscal year 2009. As a percentage of sales, net income from operations was 26% in the current year compared to a loss of 25% in the prior period.

Net income in fiscal year 2010 was $1,394,120 compared to a loss of $8,047,048 in fiscal year 2009.  During the years ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, the Company was required to pay a cash dividend to the preferred stockholders of $NIL- and $134,400.  The current fiscal year amount includes a net reduction for the minority interest in earnings of $4,892,097 compared to a reduction of $1,816,143 in the prior year for the 49.9% minority interest in NetSol Connect and NetSol Innovation, and the 42.04% minority interest in NetSol PK. The net earnings per share, basic and diluted, was $0.05 and $0.04 in 2010 compared to a net loss, basic and diluted, of $0.30 in 2009.

The net EBITDA income was $6,834,483 compared to loss of $2,473,415 after amortization and depreciation charges of $3,907,946 and $4,188,208, income taxes of $53,943 and $91,132, and interest expense of $1,478,474 and $1,294,293 respectively.  The EBITDA income per share, basic & diluted was $0.20 and $0.18 as compared to EBITDA loss of $.09 basic and diluted in the year ago period. Although the net EBITDA income is a non-GAAP measure of income, we are providing it because we believe it to be an important supplemental measure of our performance that is commonly used by securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry.  It should not be considered as an alternative to net income, operating income or any other financial measures calculated and presented, nor as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity.  It may not be indicative of the Company’s historical operating results nor is it intended to be predictive of potential future results.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We note that the Company's cash position was $4,075,546 at June 30, 2010 compared to $4,403,762 at June 30, 2009.   Further, we note that the Company’s current assets, as of June 30, 2010, totaled $33,354,816 and were 46% of total assets, an increase of 16% from $28,792,129, an increase of 16% from $28,792,129 or  or 46% of total assets as of June 30, 2009.  As of June 30, 2010, the Company's working capital (current assets less current liabilities) totaled $13,127,033 compared to $11,398,413 as of June 30, 2009, an increase of $1,728,620. As of June 30, 2010, the Company had $12,280,331 million in accounts receivable and $9,477,278 million in revenues in excess of billings.  Net cash provided by operating activities amounted to $8,669,710 for the year ended June 30, 2010, as compared to $1,231,588 for the year ended June 30, 2009.

The increase is mainly due to an increase in both net profits of the company, accounts receivable and other current assets. The increase in the overall revenues of the company is due to the signing of new deals that have resulted in an increase in accounts receivables and other current assets, including revenues in excess of billings. The average collection cycle for accounts receivables ranges between three to six months from the date of invoicing. Payments are usually received within the due dates. The average days sales outstanding for the year ended June 30, 2010 was 122 days as compared with 157 days in fiscal year 2009. This decrease is a result of better collection efforts by the Company during the current year.
 
We note that net cash used in investing activities amounted to $10,216,790 for the year ended June 30, 2010, as compared to $9,434,284 for the year ended June 30, 2009. The difference is primarily a result of the capitalization of intangible assets and an increase in purchases of fixed assets. Please note that the Company had purchases of property and equipment of $2,986,495 compared to $2,093,618 for the comparable period last fiscal year.
 
We note that nNet cash provided by financing activities amounted to $1,708,837 and $6,571,516 for years ended June 30, 2010, and 2009, respectively.  The current fiscal year included the cash inflow of $854,509 from the sale of common stock and $71,250 from the exercising of stock options and warrants, compared to $712,770 and $563,929 in the prior year, respectively.  Additionally, the Company generated $3.5 million from the issuance of convertible notes.  As of June 30, 2010 the convertible notes payable, net of the associated beneficial conversion feature amounted to $7,083,204 out of which $3,017,096 will be payable in fiscal 2011 and the balance of $4,066,108 due in July 2011.
 
In the current fiscal year, the Company had $4,540,971 in proceeds from bank loans, and net capital leases payments of $4,328,700 as compared to $3,843,541 in proceeds from bank loans, and net capital leases payments of $539,497 in the comparable period last year.  The Company operates in a range of geographical regions of the world through its various subsidiaries. These subsidiaries have financial arrangements from various financial institutions to meet both their short and long term funding requirements. These loans will become due at different maturity dates the detail of which is given in Note No. 12 of the annexed financial statements. The Company and all of its subsidiaries are in compliance with our financial covenant arrangements. The Company’s subsidiary, NetSol PK, has a term finance facility from Askari Bank to finance the construction of a new building. The total amount of the facility is Rs. 200,000,000 or approximately $2,327,476 which is secured by the first of Rs. 580 million of land, building, and equipment of the Company. The Company has used only Rs. 100 million ($1,163,738 approximately) of this facility as on June 30, 2010 and the balance of Rs. 100 million is available depending upon the financial requirements of the Company.
 
The Company plans on pursuing various and feasible means of raising new funding to: expand its infrastructure, enhance product offerings and strengthen marketing and sales activities in strategic markets.   A strong growth in earnings and the signing of larger contracts with Fortune 500 customers largely depends on the financial strength of NetSol. Generally, the bigger name clients and new prospects diligently analyze and take into consideration a stronger balance sheet before awarding big projects to vendors. Therefore, NetSol would continue its effort to further enhance its financial resources in order to continue to attract large name customers and big value contracts.
 
As a growing and dynamic company, we will continue our organic growth strategy in selective markets. While we have scaled down any major capital expenditures, there will be 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 having the need for working capital of $4.0 to $6.0 million for overall expansion plans that would involve continued R&D, new product development, business development activities and infrastructure enhancements.

Management intends to further improve the accounts receivable collections process from our customers. In addition, we expect that significant executive and employee stock options exercises as a substantial amount of these options are in the money. The Company will explore injections of new capital from strategic investors, as the most feasible and viable source of new capital.  Some of the joint ventures partners could be amongst the strategic investors to strengthen our balance sheet. Management is very aware of the need to continue to reduce both short term and long term liabilities while continuously improving cash flow and net cash position. Management remains very committed and focused to strengthening overall assets and will employ all of the above mentioned tools and such others as may become available to achieve these goals.

Dividends and Redemption

It has been the Company's policy to invest earnings in the growth of the Company rather than distribute earnings as common stock dividends. This policy, under which common stock dividends have not been paid since the Company's inception and is expected to continue, but is subject to regular review by the Board of Directors.

ITEM 8A(T).  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
 
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

It is the responsibility of our management to establish, maintain, and monitor disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 are recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms. Additionally, these disclosure controls include controls and procedures that are designed to accumulate and communicate the information required to be disclosed to our company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, allowing for timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

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 June 30, 2010. 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 our assessment, we believe that as of June 30, 2010, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting is effective based on that criteria.
 
This annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only management’s report in this annual report.
 
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
There have been no significant changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during our fourth fiscal quarter ended July 3, 2010 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)).

ITEM 10-EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Compensation Discussion and Analysis
 
NetSol Technologies’ Named Executive Officers, a group comprised of the Chief Executive Officer, the Chief Financial Officer, and three other executive officers in the 2009-2010 fiscal year, are the following individuals:

Najeeb Ghauri
Chief Executive Officer
Salim Ghauri
President of Asia Pacific and Middle East Operations
Naeem Ghauri
President of European Operations
Boo Ali
Chief Financial Officer
Patti L. W. McGlasson
Secretary and General Counsel

Compensation Philosophy and Objectives
 
The Compensation Committee believes that the most effective executive compensation program is one that is designed to reward the achievement of specific annual, long-term and strategic goals by the Company, and which aligns executives’ interests with those of the stockholders by rewarding performance at or above established goals, with the ultimate objective of increasing stockholder value. The philosophy of the Compensation Committee is to evaluate both performance and compensation to ensure that we maintain our ability to attract and retain superior employees in key positions and that compensation provided to key employees remains competitive relative to the compensation paid to similarly situated executives of our peer companies. To that end, the Compensation Committee believes executive compensation packages should include both cash and equity-based compensation that reward performance as measured against established goals.
 
Setting Executive Compensation
 
Management develops our compensation plans by utilizing publicly available compensation data in the media services and technology industries. We believe that the practices of these groups of companies provide us with appropriate compensation benchmarks, because these groups of companies are in similar businesses and tend to compete with us for executives and other employees. For benchmarking executive compensation, we typically review the compensation data we have collected from these groups of companies, as well as a subset of the data from those companies that have a similar number of employees as the Company. For purposes of determining executive compensation, we have not engaged consultants to help us analyze this data or to compare our compensation programs with the practices of the companies represented in the compensation data we review.
 
Based on management's analyses and recommendations, the Compensation Committee has approved a pay-for-performance compensation philosophy, which is intended to establish base salaries and total executive compensation (taking into consideration the executive's experience and abilities) that are competitive with those companies with a similar number of employees represented in the compensation data we review.
 
We work within the framework of this pay-for-performance compensation philosophy to determine each component of an executive's initial compensation package based on numerous factors, including:
 
• the individual's particular background, track record and circumstances, including training and prior relevant work experience;

• the individual's role with us and the compensation paid to similar persons in the companies represented in the compensation data that we review;

• the demand for individuals with the individual's specific expertise and experience;

• performance goals and other expectations for the position; and,

• uniqueness of industry skills.
 
The terms of each executive officer's compensation are derived from employment agreements negotiated between the Company and the executive. Each executive's employment agreement is generally negotiated to cover a one to three-year period, and prescribes the base salary and other annual payments, if any, to the executive. Employment agreements for all executive officers are approved by the Board of Directors and the Compensation Committee. Employment agreements for other executives are approved by the Company's Chief Executive Officer.

2010 Executive Compensation Components
 
For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010, the principal components of compensation that our named executive officers were eligible to receive were:
 
• Base salary;
• Long Term Equity Incentive Compensation;
• Performance-based incentive compensation (discretionary bonus); and,
• Perquisites and other personal benefits.
 
Base Salary
 
An executive's base salary is evaluated together with components of the executive's other compensation to ensure that the executive's total compensation is consistent with our overall compensation philosophy.
 
The base salaries were established in arms-length negotiations between the executive and the Company, taking into account their extensive experience, knowledge of the industry, track record, and achievements on behalf of the Company.
 
Base salaries are adjusted annually by the Compensation Committee. During the 2010 fiscal year, each executive officer, with the exception of the Chief Financial Officer whose tenure began in Fiscal 2009, received an upward adjustment to his or her base salary to correct for the voluntary decrease in base salary agreed to by each executive officer during the 2009 fiscal year. The Chief Financial Officer’s base salary was adjusted in the 2010 fiscal year based on his performance for the Company during his first year of service.
 
Annual Bonus
 
Our compensation program includes eligibility for bonuses as rewarded by the Compensation Committee. All executives are eligible for annual performance-based cash bonuses in accordance with Company policies.
 
During our fiscal year ended 2010, none of the named executives were awarded cash bonuses.   The Compensation Committee determined to forgo the grant of cash bonuses during the fiscal year ended June 2010 because, while the Company was experiencing an easing of the effects of the recession, cash bonuses could have a negative impact on the Company’s desire to maintain cash reserves.
 
Long-Term Equity Incentive Compensation
 
We believe that long-term performance is achieved through an ownership culture that encourages long-term participation by our executives in equity-based awards. Our various Employee Stock Option Plans allow us to grant stock options to employees. We currently make initial equity awards of stock options to new executives and certain non-executive employees in connection with their employment with the Company. Annual grants of options, if any, are approved by the Compensation Committee.
 
Equity Incentives.    Executives, certain non-executive employees, and directors who join us may be awarded stock awards and/or stock option grants after they join the Company. These grants have an exercise price equal to the fair market value of our common stock on the grant date. Such awards are intended to provide the executive with incentive to build value in the organization over an extended period of time. The size of the stock option award is also reviewed in light of the executive's track record, base salary, other compensation and other factors to ensure that the executive's total compensation is in line with our overall compensation philosophy.  A review of all components of compensation is conducted when determining equity awards to ensure that total compensation conforms to our overall philosophy and objectives.
 
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010, the Company adjusted the overall compensation of the named executives to reconcile the reduction in salaries during the previous fiscal year and first half of the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010.  Equity incentives determined by the Fair Market Value of our common stock on the grant date were provided to the executives as an adjustment of their overall compensation while taking in to account the need to continue to incentivize the executive to build value in the organization. Each executive’s stock award was based on an analysis of the Compensation Committee of an appropriate overall cash compensation for each individual taking into account their position and compensation at similarly situated companies.  Each executive’s stock award was based on a desired overall compensation cash value less the base salary as approved by the Compensation Committee.

 
46
 
 
Perquisites and Other Personal Benefits
 
We provide named executive officers with perquisites and other personal benefits that we believe are reasonable and consistent with our overall compensation program to better enable the Company to attract and retain superior employees for key positions. The Compensation Committee periodically reviews the levels of perquisites and other personal benefits provided to executive officers.
 
We maintain benefits and perquisites that are offered to all employees, including health insurance and dental insurance.   Benefits and perquisites may vary in different country locations and are consistent with local practices and regulations.
 
Termination Based Compensation
 
Upon termination of employment, all executive officers with a written employment agreement are entitled to receive severance payments under their employment agreements. In determining whether to approve, and as part of the process of setting the terms of, such severance arrangements, the Compensation Committee recognizes that executives and officers often face challenges securing new employment following termination.  Further, the Committee recognizes that many of the named executives and officers have participated in the Company since its founding and that this participation has not resulted in a return on their investments.  Termination and Change in Control Payments considered both the risk and the dedication of these executives’ service to the Company.
 
Our Chief Executive Officer, CEO of NetSol Technologies, Ltd. and CEO of NetSol Technologies Europe, Ltd.  have employment agreements that provide, if his employment is terminated without cause or if the executive terminates the agreement with Good Reason, he is entitled to (a) all remaining salary to the end of the date of termination, plus salary from the end of the employment term through the end of the third anniversary of the date of termination, and (b) the continuation by the Company of medical and dental insurance coverage for him and his family until the end of the employment term and through the end of the third anniversary of the date of termination.  Provided, however, if such benefits cannot be continued for this extended period, the Executive shall receive cash (including a tax-equivalency payment for Federal, state and local income and payroll taxes assuming Executive is in the maximum tax bracket for all such purposes) where such benefits may not be continued.  These agreements further provide for vesting of all options and restrictive stock grants, if any.
 
 
Our Chief Financial Officer has an employment agreement that provides, if his employment is terminated without cause or if the executive terminates the agreement with Good Reason, he is entitled to (a) all remaining salary to the end of the date of termination, plus salary from the end of the employment term through the end of the second month of the date of termination, and (b) the continuation by the Company of medical and dental insurance coverage for him and his family until the end of the employment term and through the end of the two months from the date of termination.  Provided, however, if such benefits cannot be continued for this extended period, the Executive shall receive cash (including a tax-equivalency payment for Federal, state and local income and payroll taxes assuming Executive is in the maximum tax bracket for all such purposes) where such benefits may not be continued.  These agreements further provide for vesting of all options and restrictive stock grants, if any.

Tax and Accounting Implications
 
Deductibility of Executive Compensation
 
As part of its role, the Compensation Committee reviews and considers the deductibility of executive compensation under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code, which provides that we may not deduct compensation of more than $1,000,000 that is paid to certain individuals. We believe that compensation paid under the management incentive plans is generally fully deductible for federal income tax purposes.
 
Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation
 
Commencing on July 1, 2006, we began accounting for stock-based payments, including awards under our Employee Stock Option Plans, in accordance with the requirements of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment, or SFAS 123(R).

(2)  Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the Commission and generally includes voting or investment power with respect to securities. Shares of common stock relating to options currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days of September 7, 2010, are deemed outstanding for computing the percentage of the person holding such securities but are not deemed outstanding for computing the percentage of any other person.

(3)  Address c/o NetSol Technologies, Inc. at 23901 Calabasas Road, Suite 2072, Calabasas, CA 91302.

(4)  Shares issued and outstanding as of September 6, 2010 were 40,205,421.

(5)  Address:  The Bank of Nova Scotia Trust Company (Bahamas) Ltd., Windermere House, 404 East Bay Street, P.O. Box SS-5539, Nassau, Bahamas.  Tail Wind Advisory & Management Ltd., a UK corporation authorized and regulated by the Financial Services Authority of Great Britain (“TWAM”), is the investment manager for The Tail Wind Fund Ltd., and David Crook is the CEO and controlling shareholder of TWAM. Each of TWAM and David Crook expressly disclaims any equitable or beneficial ownership of the shares being referred to hereunder and held by The Tail Wind Fund Ltd.

(6) Subject to the Ownership Limitation (defined below) and as reported in their Form 13G/A filed February 12, 2010, The Tail Wind Fund Ltd. (“Tail Wind”) may be deemed to beneficially own a total of 7,355,432 shares of Common Stock, including: 650,467 shares  of Common Stock held by Tail Wind; 12,854,143 shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of $1,800,000 in principal amount of  NetSol’s Convertible Notes due July 10, 2010 (“2009 Notes”) issued to TWF at a conversion price of $0.63 (without any interest accrual), 793,650 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of warrants issued to TWF on June 29, 2007, 793,650 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of warrants issued to TWF on October 29, 2007, and 2,260,522 shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of $1,424,128.86 in principal amount of NetSol’s Convertible Notes due July 31, 2011 issued to Tail Wind on July 23, 2008 at a conversion of $.63 (without any interest accrual).

Subject to the ownership limitation, TWAM may be deemed to beneficially own a total of 7,988,807 shares of Common Stock (the “TWAM Shares”), including the Tail Wind shares, which it may be deemed to beneficially own in its capacity as the investment manager for Tail Wind, and 876,192 shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of $633,375 in principal amount of NetSol’s Convertible Notes due July 31, 2011 issued to TWAM on July 23, 20008 at a conversion price of $0.63 (without any interest accrual).

 
59
 

In accordance with Rule 13d-4 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, because the number of shares of Common Stock into which the Reporting Person's Notes,  and Warrants are convertible and exercisable is limited, pursuant to the terms of such instruments, to that number of shares of Common Stock which would result in the Reporting Person having beneficial ownership of 9.9% of the total issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock (the "Ownership Limitation"), Tail Wind disclaims beneficial ownership of any and all shares of Common Stock that would cause Tail Wind's beneficial ownership to exceed the Ownership Limitation.  In accordance with the Ownership Limitation, Tail Wind, based upon 35,436,277 shares of common stock outstanding (as of February 5, 2010), Tail Wind beneficially owns 3,822,192 shares of Common Stock and disclaims beneficial ownership of 3,533,240 and TWAM disclaims beneficial ownership of 4,166,615 shares of Common Stock.

(7) Pursuant to a form 13G/A filed on February 16, 2010 and relying upon the authenticity of the information contained therein, the following persons have shared voting power over 3,405,414 shares of common stock of the Company:  Newland Capital Management, LLC (as to 3,405,414 shares), Newland Master Fund, Ltd.

There were no other fees billed by Kabani & Co. or services rendered to NetSol during the fiscal years ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, other than as described above.
 
Pre-Approval Procedures
 
The Audit Committee and the Board of Directors are responsible for the engagement of the independent auditors and for approving, in advance, all auditing services and permitted non-audit services to be provided by the independent auditors. The Audit Committee maintains a policy for the engagement of the independent auditors that is intended to maintain the independent auditor’s independence from NetSol. In adopting the policy, the Audit Committee considered the various services that the independent auditors have historically performed or may be needed to perform in the future. The policy, which is to be reviewed and re-adopted at least annually by the Audit Committee:

 
60
 
 
 
(i)
Approves the performance by the independent auditors of certain types of service (principally audit-related and tax), subject to restrictions in some cases, based on the Committee’s determination that this would not be likely to impair the independent auditors’ independence from NetSol;

(ii)
Requires that management obtain the specific prior approval of the Audit Committee for each engagement of the independent auditors to perform other types of permitted services; and,

(iii)
Prohibits the performance by the independent auditors of certain types of services due to the likelihood that their independence would be impaired.
 
Any approval required under the policy must be given by the Audit Committee, by the Chairman of the Committee in office at the time, or by any other Committee member to whom the Committee has delegated that authority. The Audit Committee does not delegate its responsibilities to approve services performed by the independent auditors to any member of management.
 
The standard applied by the Audit Committee in determining whether to grant approval of an engagement of the independent auditors is whether the services to be performed, the compensation to be paid therefore and other related factors are consistent with the independent auditors’ independence under guidelines of the Securities and Exchange Commission and applicable professional standards. Relevant considerations include, but are not limited to, whether the work product is likely to be subject to, or implicated in, audit procedures during the audit of NetSol’s financial statements; whether the independent auditors would be functioning in the role of management or in an advocacy role; whether performance of the service by the independent auditors would enhance NetSol’s ability to manage or control risk or improve audit quality; whether performance of the service by the independent auditors would increase efficiency because of their familiarity with NetSol’s business, personnel, culture, systems, risk profile and other factors; and whether the amount of fees involved, or the proportion of the total fees payable to the independent auditors in the period that is for tax and other non-audit services, would tend to reduce the independent auditors’ ability to exercise independent judgment in performing the audit.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
 
Board of Directors
NetSol Technologies, Inc. and subsidiaries
Calabasas, California

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of NetSol Technologies, Inc. and subsidiaries as of June 30, 2010 and 2009, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive losses, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for each of years in the two-year period then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
 
We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of NetSol Technologies, Inc. and subsidiaries as of June 30, 2010 and 2009 and the results of its consolidated operations and comprehensive loss, stockholder’s equity and cash flows for each of years in the two-year period then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
 
NetSol Technologies, Inc. and subsidiaries(collectively, the “Company”), formerly known as NetSol International, Inc. and Mirage Holdings, Inc., was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on March 18, 1997. During November of 1998, Mirage Collections, Inc., a wholly owned and non-operating subsidiary, was dissolved.
 
During fiscal year 2010, the Company formed a new subsidiary company under the laws of Thailand, NTPK (Thailand) Company Limited, as an Amity Treaty Company (“NTPK Thailand”). While formally completed during the quarter ended March 31, 2010, registration of the Company was recorded retroactively to the date of submission of all final documents, or December 18, 2009. The Company was formed with an initial contribution of 4 million baht or $123,258.
 
The Company designs, develops, markets, and exports proprietary software products to customers in the automobile finance and leasing, banking, healthcare, and financial services industries worldwide. The Company also provides system integration, consulting, IT products and services in exchange for fees from customers.
 
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
(A)
Principles of Consolidation
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of NetSol Technologies, Inc. and subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) as follows:
 
Wholly-owned Subsidiaries
NetSol Technologies North America, Inc. (“NTNA”)
NetSol Technologies Limited (“NetSol UK”)
NetSol-Abraxas Australia Pty Ltd. (“Abraxas”)
NetSol Technologies Europe Limited (“NTE”)
NTPK (Thailand) Co. Limited (“NTPK Thailand”)

The Company consolidates any variable interest entities of which it is the primary beneficiary, as defined. Equity investments through which we exercise significant influence over but do not control the investee and are not the primary beneficiary of the investee’s activities are accounted for using the equity method. Investments through which we are not able to exercise significant influence over the investee and which do not have readily determinable fair values are accounted for under the cost method. All material inter-company accounts have been eliminated in the consolidation.

Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements
 
June 30, 2010 and 2009
 
(B)
Basis of Presentation
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).
 
(C)
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.
 
(D)
Cash and Cash Equivalents and Cash Concentrations
 
For purposes of the consolidated statement of cash flows, cash equivalents include all highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less which are not securing any corporate obligations. The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts, which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts.
 
(E)
Restricted Cash
 
The Company has certificates of deposits (“CD”s) in various configurations and maturity dates with Habib American Bank. A portion of these CDs are restricted as collateral to secure outstanding balances on an existing line of credit, and become unrestricted to the extent that they are not required for collateralization purposes. As of June 30, 2010 the outstanding balance on the line of credit was $5,677,533, with a corresponding restriction to the CD balances. The line of credit has a maximum available balance of $5,700,000.
 
(F)
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
 
The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses inherent in its accounts receivable portfolio. In establishing the required allowance, management regularly reviews the composition of accounts receivable and analyzes customer credit worthiness, customer concentrations, current economic trends and changes in customer payment patterns. Reserves are recorded primarily on a specific identification basis. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. As of June 30, 2010 and 2009, the Company had recorded allowance for doubtful accounts of $2,525,009 and $2,504,714, respectively.
 
(G)
Revenues in Excess of Billings
 
Revenues in excess of billings represent the total of the project to be billed to the customer over the revenues recognized under the percentage of completion method. As the customer is billed under the terms of their contract, the corresponding amount is transferred from this account to “Accounts Receivable.”

(H)
Property and Equipment
 
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to earnings as incurred; additions, renewals and betterments are capitalized. When property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts, and any gain or loss is included in operations. Depreciation is computed using various methods over the estimated useful lives of the assets, ranging from three to ten years.
 
The Company capitalizes costs of materials, consultants, and payroll and payroll-related costs for employees incurred in developing internal-use computer software. These costs are included with “Computer equipment and software.” Costs incurred during the preliminary project and post-implementation stages are charged to general and administrative expense as incurred.
 
(I)
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
 
The Company tests long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable through the estimated undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the assets. Whenever any such impairment exists, an impairment loss will be recognized for the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value.
 
(J)
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.
 
(K)
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 over three years, whichever method results in a higher level of amortization.

(L)
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.
 
(M)
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are categorized based on whether or not the inputs are observable in the market and the degree that the inputs are observable. The categorization of financial assets and liabilities within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
 
The Company's financial instruments primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable.
 
As of the balance sheet dates, the estimated fair values of the financial instruments were not materially different from their carrying values as presented on the balance sheet. This is primarily attributed to the short maturities of these instruments.
 
(N)
Revenue Recognition
 
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.
 
(O)
Multiple Element Arrangements
 
We enter into multiple element revenue arrangements in which a customer may purchase a number of different combinations of software licenses, consulting services, maintenance and support, as well as training and development (multiple-element arrangements).
 
VSOE of fair value for each element is based on the price for which the element is sold separately. We determine the VSOE of fair value of each element based on historical evidence of our stand-alone sales of these elements to third-parties or from the stated renewal rate for the elements contained in the initial software license arrangement. When VSOE of fair value does not exist for any undelivered element, revenue is deferred until the earlier of the point at which such VSOE of fair value exists or until all elements of the arrangement have been delivered. The only exception to this guidance is when the only undelivered element is maintenance and support or other services, then the entire arrangement fee is recognized ratably over the performance period.
 
Net revenues by our various products and services provided for the year ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 are as follows:
 
   
2010
    
2009
  
Licensing Fees
   $ 14,157,107     $ 4,786,332  
Maintenance Fees

     15,574,853       15,162,426  
 Total
   $ 36,779,897     $ 26,448,177  
 
(P)
Unearned Revenue
 
Unearned revenue represents billings in excess of revenue earned on contracts and are recognized on a pro-rata basis over the life of the contract. Unearned revenue was $2,545,314 and $3,473,228 as of June 30, 2010 and June 30, 2009 respectively.
 
(Q)
Advertising Costs
 
The Company expenses the cost of advertising as incurred. Advertising costs for the years ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 were $227,045 and $420,846 respectively.
 
(R)
Share-Based Compensation
 
The Company measures stock-based compensation cost at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and recognize it as expense over the applicable vesting period of the stock award (generally four to five years) using the straight-line method.

(S)
Income Taxes
 
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is provided for deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not these items will either expire before the Company is able to realize their benefits, or that future deductibility is uncertain.
 
(T)
Foreign Currency Translation
 
Assets and liabilities recorded in foreign currencies are translated at the exchange rate on the balance sheet date. Revenue and expenses are translated at average rates of exchange prevailing during the year. Translation adjustments resulting from this process are recorded to other comprehensive income.
 
(U)
Statement of Cash Flows
 
The Company's cash flows from operations are calculated based upon the local currencies. As a result, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the statement of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the balance sheet.
 
(V)
Segment Reporting
 
The Company defines operating segments as components about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performances. The Company allocates its resources and assesses the performance of its sales activities based on geographic locations of its subsidiaries (see Note 18).
 
(W)
Subsequent Events
 
Management has evaluated subsequent events through September 9, 2010, the date of issuance of these consolidated financial statements.
 
(X)
New Accounting Pronouncements
 
In August 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) amended guidance related to the measurement of liabilities at fair value, which was effective upon issuance. These amendments clarify that in circumstances in which a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability is not available, we are required to use the quoted price of the identical liability when traded as an asset, quoted prices for similar liabilities, or quoted prices for similar liabilities when traded as assets. If these quoted prices are not available, we are required to use another valuation technique, such as an income approach or a market approach. The adoption of these amendments did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In October 2009, the FASB amended guidance related to revenue recognition that will be effective for the Company beginning July 1, 2010. Under the new guidance on arrangements that include software elements, tangible products that have software components that are essential to the functionality of the tangible product will no longer be within the scope of the software revenue recognition guidance, and software-enabled products will now be subject to other relevant revenue recognition guidance. Additionally, the FASB amended guidance on revenue arrangements with multiple deliverables that are outside the scope of the software revenue recognition guidance. Under the new guidance, when vendor specific objective evidence or third party evidence for deliverables in an arrangement cannot be determined, a best estimate of the selling price is required to separate deliverables and allocate arrangement consideration using the relative selling price method. The new guidance includes new disclosure requirements on how the application of the relative selling price method affects the timing and amount of revenue recognition. The adoption of these amendments is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
 
In December 2009, the FASB amended guidance related to fair value measurements and Disclosures, which was effective beginning the 2nd quarter of the Company’s 2010 fiscal year, December 31, 2009. These amendments prescribe new disclosures and clarify certain existing disclosure requirements related to fair value measurements. The objective of the amendments was to improve these disclosures and, thus, increase the transparency in financial reporting. The adoption of these amendments did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
 
In February 2010, the FASB amended guidance related to disclosure of subsequent events, which was effective upon issuance. These amendments prescribe that entities that are SEC filers are required to evaluate subsequent events through the date that the financial statements are issued. The adoption of these amendments did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
 
NOTE 3 – EARNINGS PER SHARE
 
Basic earnings per share is 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.

The Company has established a full valuation allowance as management believes it is more likely than not that these assets will not be realized in the future. The valuation allowance increased by $864,867 for the year ended June 30, 2010 mainly due to adjusting the Company's net operating loss carry forwards for the current year operating loss.
 
At June 30, 2010, federal and state net operating loss carry forwards were $29,276,610 and $9,478,138 respectively. Federal net operating loss carry forwards begin to expire in 2020, while state net operating loss carry forwards begin to expire in 2015. Due to both historical and recent changes in the capitalization structure of the Company, the utilization of net operating losses may be limited pursuant to section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code.
 
As of June 30, 2010, the Company does not have any unrecognized tax benefits related to various federal and state income tax matters. The Company will recognize accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense.
 
The Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax, as well as various state and foreign jurisdictions.

The cumulative amount of undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries that the Company intends to permanently invest and upon which no deferred US income taxes have been provided is $21,653,787 as of June 30, 2010. The additional US income tax on unremitted foreign earnings, if repatriated, would be offset in part by foreign tax credits. The extent of this offset would depend on many factors, including the method of distribution, and specific earnings distributed. The Company is currently focusing its marketing efforts on the Asia Pacific region where strategic capital investment is planned to be financed by undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries. The Company’s capital investment strategies include a geographical focus such that reinvestment of these earnings will occur outside of the United States, and thus not subject to respective repatriation tax implications. At this stage, it is not practicable to estimate the amount of additional taxes that might be payable upon repatriation of foreign earnings.

As of June 30, 2010 the Company's Pakistan subsidiaries had net operating loss carry forwards which can be carried forward six years to offset future taxable income.

In May 2008, the shareholders approved the 2008 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2008 Plan”) which provides for the grant of equity-based awards, including options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards or performance share awards or any other right or interest relating to shares or cash, to eligible participants. The aggregate number of shares reserved and available for award under the 2008 Plan is 1,000,000 (the Share Reserve). The 2008 Plan contemplates the issuance of common stock upon exercise of options or other awards granted to eligible persons under the 2008 Plan. Shares issued under the 2008 Plan may be both authorized and unissued shares or previously issued shares acquired by the Company. Upon termination or expiration of an unexercised option, stock appreciation right or other stock-based award under the 2008 Plan, in whole or in part, the number of shares of common stock subject to such award again become available for grant under the 2008 Plan. Any shares of restricted stock forfeited as described below will become available for grant. The maximum number of shares that may be granted to any one participant in any calendar year may not exceed 500,000 shares. All options issued pursuant to the Plan are nontransferable and subject to forfeiture.
 
Stock Options
 
Options granted under the 2008 Plan are not generally transferable and must be exercised within 10 years, subject to earlier termination upon termination of the option holder's employment, but in no event later than the expiration of the option's term. The exercise price of each option may not be less than the fair market value of a share of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant (except in connection with the assumption or substitution for another option in a manner qualifying under Section 424(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code). Incentive stock options granted to any participant who owns 10% or more of the Company’s outstanding common stock (a Ten Percent Shareholder) must have an exercise price equal to or exceeding 110% of the fair market value of a share of our common stock on the date of the grant and must not be exercisable for longer than five years. Options become vested and exercisable at such times or upon such events and subject to such terms, conditions, performance criteria or restrictions as specified by the Committee. The maximum term of any option granted under the 2008 Plan is ten years, provided that an incentive stock option granted to a Ten Percent Shareholder must have a term not exceeding five years.
 
Performance Awards
 
Under the 2008 Plan, a participant may also be awarded a "performance award," which means that the participant may receive cash, stock or other awards contingent upon achieving performance goals established by the Committee. The Committee may also make "deferred share" awards, which entitle the participant to receive our stock in the future for services performed between the date of the award and the date the participant may receive the stock. The vesting of deferred share awards may be based on performance criteria and/or continued service with our Company. A participant who is granted a "stock appreciation right" under the Plan has the right to receive all or a percentage of the fair market value of a share of stock on the date of exercise of the stock appreciation right minus the grant price of the stock appreciation right determined by the Committee (but in no event less than the fair market value of the stock on the date of grant). Finally, the Committee may make "restricted stock" awards under the 2008 Plan, which are subject to such terms and conditions as the Committee determines and as are set forth in the award agreement related to the restricted stock. As of June 30, 2010, 602,000 shares have been issued under this plan.

Litigation
 
The Pakistan subsidiary of the Company, NetSol PK had entered into an agreement with Raseen Technologies LLC ("Raseen"), an Abu Dhabi based company to establish a new joint venture (“JV”) in Pakistan for providing services to telecom sector. Based on that understanding, the Company spent $367,164 for capital equipment and various expenses in preparation for the delivery of services to be provided relative to the operations of the JV. The non-capital related expenditures were recorded as other assets in accordance with the agreement, which provides that all expenditures were to be reimbursed by the JV to the corresponding company upon achievement of positive cash flows.
 
Subsequent to the execution of the agreement, and previous to the incorporation of the JV, Raseen terminated its participation without cause, as defined. The Company has filed a civil suit against Raseen in the civil court of Lahore, Pakistan for the recovery of the JV-related expenditures disbursed. As a result of the litigation on this matter, and the inherent uncertainty of any recovery, the Company has recorded a loss as of the year-ended June 30, 2010 in the amount of $237,104, which is the total of non-capital related expenditures. The capital assets purchased are computer equipment, as well as furniture and fixtures that are currently being utilized and accordingly depreciated by the Company for use in the normal course of operations.
