Howard S. Jonas

Chairman of the Board of Directors

June [__], 2016

Dear IDT Corporation Stockholder:

We are pleased to inform you that the Board of Directors of IDT Corporation (“IDT”) has approved the spin-off of Zedge, Inc. (“Zedge”), a majority-owned subsidiary of IDT, to IDT’s stockholders. IDT currently owns 82% of Zedge, 69% on a fully-diluted basis and will be distributing all of that interest to IDT’s stockholders. Following the spin-off, IDT’s business will consist of IDT Telecom, our Gibraltar-based bank, as well as real estate holdings and other interests.

The spin-off of Zedge will occur by way of a pro rata distribution of Zedge Class A common stock and Class B common stock to IDT’s stockholders. On the distribution date, each IDT stockholder will receive one share of Zedge Class A common stock for every three shares of IDT Class A common stock and one share of Zedge Class B common stock for every three shares of IDT Class B common stock, held at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on May 26, 2016, which is the record date of the spin-off. The distribution of shares of our Class B common stock will be issued in book-entry form and physical certificates of Zedge will be issued only to holders of IDT Class A common stock and, upon request, to holders of IDT Class B common stock.

Stockholder approval of the spin-off is not being sought, and you are not required to take any action to receive your Zedge common stock.

Zedge will focus its efforts on evolving its content distribution platform into the leading medium for digital self-expression for both creators looking to promote their content and consumers who utilize such content to express their identity, feelings, tastes and interests. More immediately Zedge will continue expanding its mobile personalization service that avails users with ringtones, wallpapers, home screen app icons and notification sounds. By creating a separate entity with management focused on the Zedge businesses, we expect to unlock greater value than was the case as part of IDT.

Following the spin-off, you will own shares in both IDT and Zedge. We have applied and received authorization to have Zedge’s Class B common stock listed for trading on the New York Stock Exchange MKT LLC (“NYSE MKT”) under the symbol “ZDGE”. We intend to satisfy all the requirements in order for Zedge’s Class B common stock to commence trading following the distribution date.  IDT Class B common stock will continue to trade on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “IDT.” As we have previously disclosed, we are working toward another spin-off that will separate IDT Telecom and certain of our other interests.

We intend for the spin-off to be tax-free for stockholders. To that end, prior to consummation of the spin-off, we expect to receive a favorable legal opinion from Pryor Cashman LLP as to the spin-off’s tax-free status. You should, of course, consult your own tax advisor as to the particular consequences of the spin-off to you.

The enclosed information statement, which is being mailed to all of those who are IDT stockholders as of the record date, describes the spin-off in detail and contains important information about Zedge, including financial statements.

We look forward to your continued support as a stockholder of IDT. We remain committed to working on your behalf to build long-term stockholder value.

June [__], 2016

Dear Zedge, Inc. Stockholder:

It is my pleasure to welcome you as a stockholder of our newly independent company, Zedge, Inc. We look forward to becoming an independent company and increasing our value by executing our business plan in a focused and deliberate fashion.

As an independent company, we will have the ability to focus exclusively on the development of our business, and, in doing so, we expect to create value for our stockholders, as well as to concentrate our resources solely on our own operations and growth opportunities.

Zedge provides one of the most popular content distribution platforms, worldwide, centered on self-expression. Today our platform enables consumers to personalize their mobile devices with free, high quality ringtones, wallpapers, home screen app icons and notification sounds. The Zedge smartphone app, available in the Google Play, iTunes and Microsoft Market app stores, has been installed over 190 million times, has more than 32 million monthly active users and has averaged among the top 25 free applications in the Google Play store in the U.S. for the past six years and is ranked in the top 10 most popular free apps in the iTunes Entertainment category. Zedge’s user base has grown organically and until now the Company hasn’t made any material investment in marketing, user acquisition or advertising.

Following the spin-off, IDT stockholders will own shares in both IDT and Zedge. We have applied and received authorization to have Zedge’s Class B common stock listed for trading on the NYSE MKT under the symbol “ZDGE”. We intend to satisfy all the requirements in order for Zedge’s Class B common stock to commence trading following the distribution date.  IDT Class B common stock will continue to trade on the NYSE under the symbol “IDT”.  We invite you to learn more about us by reviewing the enclosed information statement. We look forward to our future as a separate publicly-traded company and to your support as a stockholder.

I want to thank our users, employees, investors and business partners for supporting us and helping us achieve and maintain our leadership position. Without your continued support we would not be here today and your belief in our goals, values and aspirations is humbling. We will continue working hard to deliver best of breed products and services in the world of digital self-expression and personalization. 

I am excited about the opportunity that faces us and appreciate your support, as a holder of our common stock.

Information contained herein is subject to completion or amendment. A Registration Statement on Form 10 relating to these securities has been filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

SUBJECT TO COMPLETION, DATED JUNE [__], 2016

INFORMATION STATEMENT

ZEDGE, INC.

Class A Common Stock

and

Class B Common Stock

(each, par value $0.01 per share)

This information statement is being furnished by IDT Corporation, or IDT, to its stockholders in connection with the distribution to holders of its Class A common stock and Class B common stock, each par value $0.01 per share, of all the outstanding shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock, each par value $0.01 per share, of Zedge, Inc., or Zedge, held by IDT.

Zedge is currently a majority-owned subsidiary of IDT and owns 100% of Zedge Europe AS.

The spin-off will separate our business from the remainder of IDT’s operations and holdings. Following the spin-off, IDT’s business will consist of IDT Telecom, Gibraltar-based bank, as well as real estate holdings and other interests.

We believe that the spin-off will more effectively deploy Zedge’s assets and will allow for the realization of greater value to you by the creation of an entity with management and resources that are focused solely on Zedge’s business rather than having those assets remain within IDT. Separating the two entities will allow management of Zedge to design and implement strategies and tactics that are based exclusively on its business characteristics and the industry in which it competes. In addition, the spin-off will separate business units with different risk profiles and performance characteristics from one another and allow stockholders to choose to invest or remain invested in a company that meets their investment criteria and goals. Zedge will primarily focus its efforts on building its content distribution platform centered on self-expression, attracting both creators looking to promote their content and consumers who utilize such content to express their identity, feelings, tastes and interests. It will achieve this through the development of ongoing feature enhancements, social marketing activities, content partnerships, distribution opportunities and localization methodologies, but not to the exclusion of other strategies and tactics as it sees fit. In addition, the Company will explore new and untapped opportunities in the mobile app and personalization markets and execute on those that it believes can provide significant returns. Accordingly, we believe the spin-off will build long-term stockholder value. 

Our business will initially consist of one reportable segment. 

The spin-off of Zedge will occur by way of a pro rata distribution of the Zedge Class A common stock and Class B common stock held by IDT to IDT’s stockholders. On the distribution date each IDT stockholder will receive one share of Zedge Class A common stock for every three shares of IDT Class A common stock and one share of Zedge Class B common stock for every three shares of IDT Class B common stock, held at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on May 26, 2016, which is the record date for the spin-off. The distribution of shares of our Class B common stock will be paid in book-entry form and physical stock certificates will be issued only to holders of Class A common stock and, upon request, to holders of Class B common stock. 

Holders of Zedge common stock immediately prior to the distribution will not see any change to their ownership as a result of the distribution. 

No stockholder approval of the spin-off is required or sought and you are not required to take any action to receive your Zedge common stock.  

We are not asking you for a proxy and you are requested not to send us a proxy. IDT stockholders will not be required to pay for the shares of our Class A common stock or Class B common stock to be received by them in the spin-off or to surrender or exchange shares of IDT Class A common stock or Class B common stock in order to receive our Class A common stock and Class B common stock or to take any other action in connection with the spin-off.

Currently, there is no trading market for Zedge’s Class A common stock or Class B common stock. We have applied and received authorization to have Zedge’s Class B common stock listed for trading on the NYSE MKT under the symbol “ZDGE”. We intend to satisfy all the requirements in order for Zedge’s Class B common stock to commence trading following the distribution date.  IDT Class B common stock will continue to trade on the NYSE under the symbol “IDT”. 

We do not intend to list Zedge’s Class A common stock for trading on any exchange or trading system. 

In reviewing this Information Statement, you should carefully consider the matters described under “Risk Factors” beginning on page 6 for a discussion of certain factors that should be considered by recipients of our common stock. 

Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or determined if this Information Statement is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

This Information Statement does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities.

This Information Statement is first being mailed to IDT stockholders on or about June [__], 2016.

This information statement is being furnished solely to provide information to IDT stockholders who will receive shares of our common stock in the distribution.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE SPIN-OFF

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

We provide one of the most popular content platforms for smartphone personalization globally offering a wide array of free and interesting content including ringtones, wallpapers, home screen icons and notification sounds.

Corporate Information and Structure

Pursuant to the spin-off, we will be separated from IDT and become a separate publicly-traded company. The spin-off and our resulting separation from IDT involve the following steps:

For a further explanation of the spin-off, see “The Spin-Off” beginning on page 21.

RISK FACTORS

Our business, operating results or financial condition could be materially adversely affected by any of the following risks associated with any one of our businesses, as well as the other risks highlighted elsewhere in this document, particularly the discussions about competition. The trading price of our common stock could decline due to any of these risks. Note that references to “our”, “us”, “we”, etc. used in each risk factor below refers to the business about which such risk factor is provided.

Risks Related to the Business

If we fail to attract advertisers or if our advertisers reduce their spending with us, our revenues, profitability and prospects may be materially and adversely affected.

In the fiscal years ended July 31, 2014 and 2015 and for the six months ended January 31, 2016, our revenues from advertising accounted for 100%, 94% and 94%, respectively, of our total revenues. It is anticipated that our growth profitability and prospects will continue to depend on our ability to sell advertising inventory. Companies that advertise via Zedge may choose to utilize other channels. If the size of the mobile advertising market does not increase from current levels, or if we are unable to capture and retain a sufficient share of that market, our ability to maintain or increase our current level of advertising revenues and our profitability and prospects could be materially and adversely affected. 

If we fail to maintain and enhance our brand, or if we incur excessive expenses in this effort, our business, results of operations and prospects may be materially and adversely affected.

We believe that maintaining and enhancing our brand is of significant importance to the success of our business. Historically we have not made material investments in this effort. Yet, we believe that enhancing the recognition and reputation of our brand is important to our future success and ability to compete. A well-recognized brand is important to increasing the number of users and enhancing our attractiveness to advertisers and business partners. Brand recognition and enhancement may directly affect our ability to maintain our market position.

Many factors, some of which are beyond our control, are important to maintaining and enhancing our brand and may negatively impact our brand and reputation if not properly managed, such as:

In the future we may conduct various marketing and brand promotion activities to expand our brand. Some of these may require material investment. We cannot assure you, however, that these activities will be successful or that we will be able to achieve the brand promotion effect we expect. In addition, any negative publicity in relation to our mobile internet products or services could harm our brand and reputation.

We have sometimes received, and expect to continue to receive, complaints from users regarding the quality of our products and services. If our users’ complaints are not addressed to their satisfaction, our reputation and our market position could be significantly harmed, which may materially and adversely affect our business and prospects.

We may not be able to continually meet user demand and retain or expand our user base.

Although we constantly monitor and research user needs, we may be unable to meet user demand on an ongoing basis or anticipate future user demands. A decrease in the number of users may have a material and adverse effect on our ability to sell advertising and on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In order to attract and retain users and remain competitive, we must continue to innovate our products and services, improve user experience, and implement new technologies and functionalities.

The mobile internet business is characterized by constant changes, including but not limited to rapid technological evolution, continual shifts in user demands, frequent introductions of new products and services and constant emergence of new industry standards and practices. As a result, users may leave us for our competitors’ products and services more quickly than in other sectors. Thus our success will depend, in part, on our ability to respond to these changes on a timely and cost-effective basis, including improving and marketing our existing products and services and developing and pricing new products and services in response to evolving user needs. Our ability to successfully retain or expand our user base will depend on our ability to achieve the following, among others:

We cannot assure you that our existing products and services will remain sufficiently popular with our users. We may be unsuccessful in adding compelling new enhancements; products and services to further diversify our product offerings. Unexpected technical, commercial or operational problems could delay or prevent the introduction of one or more of our new products or services. Moreover, we cannot be sure that any of our new products and services will achieve widespread market acceptance or generate incremental revenue the way our existing Zedge service has. If we fail to continue to achieve sufficient user satisfaction through our products or services or our products and services fail to meet our expectation to maintain and expand our user base, our business, results of operations and financial condition will be materially and adversely affected.

Our user base is heavily weighted to the Android operating system and our revenues may suffer if the market demand for Android smartphones decreases.

Our user base is heavily weighted to smartphones running the Android operating system, which constitutes approximately 85% of our monthly active mobile app users and most of our revenues. Any significant downturn in the overall demand for Android smartphones or the use of Android smartphones could significantly and adversely affect the demand for our personalization app and would materially affect our revenues. Although the Android smartphone market has grown rapidly in recent years, it is uncertain whether the Android smartphone market will continue growing at a similar rate in the future. In addition, due to the constantly evolving nature of the smartphone industry, another operating system for smartphones may eclipse the Android operating system and result in a decline in popularity. To the extent that the Zedge app continues to be operated on Android smartphones and to the extent that our future revenues substantially depend on the use and sales of Android smartphones, our business would be vulnerable to any downturns in the Android smartphone market.

We may not be able to effectively manage our growth or implement our future business strategies, in which case our business and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected.

Our continued success depends on our ability to grow organically and our strategic cooperation with third party partners. We have experienced a period of significant rapid growth and expansion that has placed, and continues to place, significant strain on our management and resources. We cannot assure you that this level of significant growth will be sustainable or achieved at all in the future. We believe that our continued growth will depend on our ability to develop and enhance our products and services, attract new users, retain existing users, continue developing innovative technologies in response to user demand, increase brand awareness through marketing and promotional activities, react to changes in market trends, expand into new market segments, attract new advertisers, retain existing advertisers and take advantage of the growth in the relevant markets. We cannot assure you that we will achieve any of the above.

To manage our growth and attain and maintain profitability, we will also need to further expand, train, manage and motivate our workforce and manage our relationships with users, consultants, business partners and advertisers. We anticipate that we will need to implement a variety of enhanced and upgraded operational and financial systems, procedures and controls, including the improvement of our accounting and other internal management systems. All of these endeavors involve risks and will require substantial management efforts and skills and additional expenditures. In addition, we currently enjoy a global customer base. This geographic diversification may raise the level of difficulty in managing our growth and profitability. We cannot assure you that our current and planned personnel, systems, procedures and controls will be adequate to support our future operations. In addition, we cannot assure you that we will be able to effectively manage our growth or implement our future business strategies effectively, and failure to do so may materially and adversely affect our business and results of operations.

Our products may contain errors, flaws or failures that may only become apparent after their release, especially in terms of updates to our app. From time to time we receive user feedback in connection with errors, flaws or failures and such errors, flaws or failures may also come to our attention during our internal testing process. We generally have been able to resolve such errors, flaws or failures in a timely manner, but we cannot assure you that we will be able to detect and resolve all of them effectively or in a timely manner. Errors, flaws or failures in our services and products may adversely affect user experience and cause our users to stop using our services and products, which could materially and adversely affect our business and results of operations.

Our core values of focusing on our users first and acting for the long-term may conflict with the short-term interests of our business.

One of our core values is a focus on the user’s experience, which we believe is essential to our success and serves the best, long-term interests of Zedge and our stakeholders. Therefore, we have made, in the past and/or may make in the future, significant investments or changes in strategy that we think will benefit our users, even if our decision negatively impacts our operating results in the short term. In addition, our philosophy of putting our users first may cause disagreements or negatively impact our relationships with advertisers or other third parties. Our decisions may not result in the long-term benefits that we expect, in which case the success of our business and operating results could be harmed.

The mobile advertising market may deteriorate or develop more slowly than expected, which could harm our business.

Mobile connected devices, especially smartphones, are generally a new advertising medium. Advertisers have historically spent a smaller portion of their advertising budgets on mobile media as compared to traditional advertising methods, such as television, newspapers, radio and billboards, or online advertising over the internet, such as placing banner ads on websites. Future demand and market acceptance for mobile advertising is uncertain. Many advertisers still have limited experience with mobile advertising and may continue to devote larger portions of their advertising budgets to more traditional offline or online personal computer-based advertising, instead of shifting additional advertising resources to mobile advertising. In addition, our current and potential advertiser clients may ultimately find mobile advertising to be less effective than traditional advertising media or marketing methods or other technologies for promoting their products and services, and they may even reduce their spending on mobile advertising from current levels as a result. If the market for mobile advertising deteriorates, or develops more slowly than we expect, we may not be able to increase our revenue.

If mobile connected devices, their operating systems or content distribution channels develop in ways that prevent users from downloading our app or block advertising from being delivered to our users, our ability to grow our business will be impaired.

Our business model depends upon the continued compatibility between our app and the major mobile operating systems. Third parties with whom we do not have any formal relationships control the design of mobile devices and operating systems. These parties frequently introduce new devices, and from time to time they may introduce new operating systems or modify existing ones. Network carriers, including but not limited to Verizon, AT&T or T-Mobile, may also impact the ability to download apps or access specified content on mobile devices.

We rely upon third party distribution platforms, including Google Play, iTunes and Microsoft Market for distribution of our app. Google Play, iTunes and Microsoft Market are global application distribution platforms and the main distribution channels for Zedge. As such, the promotion, distribution and operation of our apps are subject to the respective distribution platforms’ standard terms and policies for application developers, which are very broad and subject to frequent changes and interpretation. Furthermore, the distribution platforms may not enforce their standard terms and policies for application developers consistently and uniformly across all applications and with all publishers. In late January 2016, iTunes removed our app from their store claiming a policy violation. Although we didn’t agree with their interpretation, we modified the app and published a remediated version in early March. During this period prospective iOS users were unable to download our app yet existing users (i.e. users that had already installed the app on their iPhone) were still able to utilize it.

In addition, if any of these providers were to limit or disable advertising on their platforms, devices or operating systems, either because of technological constraints or because a maker of these devices, developer of these operating systems or owner of these distribution platforms wished to impair our ability to serve ads on them, our ability to generate revenue could be significantly harmed. Also, technologies may be developed that can block the display of our ads. Most of our revenues are derived from fees paid to us by advertisers in connection with the display of ads in our mobile app. As a result, ad-blocking technology could, in the future, adversely affect our operating results.

We do not have long-term agreements with our advertisers, and we may be unable to retain existing advertisers, attract new advertisers or replace departing advertiser with advertisers that can provide comparable revenue to us.

Our success requires us to maintain and expand our current advertiser relationships and to develop new relationships. Our contracts with our advertising partners generally do not include long-term obligations requiring them to purchase our inventory and are cancelable upon short or no notice and without penalty. Furthermore, the majority of our advertisers buy our inventory via third-party platforms and bidding exchanges that own the relationship with the advertiser. As a result, we may have limited visibility as to our future advertising revenue streams. We cannot assure you that our advertisers will continue to purchasing our inventory, or that we will be able to replace, in a timely or effective manner, departing advertisers with new advertisers that generate comparable revenue. If a major advertiser representing a significant portion of our business decides to materially reduce its advertising spend with us or cease purchasing our advertising inventory, our revenue could be significantly reduced.

We face competition in all aspects of our business. If we fail to compete effectively or if our reputation is damaged, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected.

Although we are currently a leading platform for smartphone personalization, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to maintain this position in the future. We face potential competition from other mobile internet companies and smartphone manufacturers, not to mention that new market entrants may also emerge. If we are not able to differentiate our business from that of our competitors, drive value for our customers, and/or effectively align our resources with our goals and objectives, we may not be able to compete effectively against our competitors. Our failure to compete effectively against any of the foregoing competitive threats could materially and adversely harm our business. Increased competition may result in new products and offerings which may in turn require us to take actions to retain and attract our users and advertisers in such a fashion which would lower gross margins. If we fail to compete effectively, our market share would decrease and our results of operations would be materially and adversely affected.

If we are not able to effectively compete in any aspect of our business or if our reputation is harmed by rumors or allegations regarding our business or business practices, our overall user base may decrease, making us less attractive to advertisers. We may be required to spend additional resources to further increase our brand recognition and promote our products and services, and such additional spending could adversely affect our profitability.

If we fail to keep up with rapid technological changes in the internet and smartphone industries, our results and future growth may be adversely affected.

The internet industry and smartphone industries are characterized by rapid and innovative technological changes. Our future success will depend on our ability to respond to fast changing technologies, adapt our products and services to evolving industry standards and improve the performance, functionality and reliability of our products and services. Our failure to continue to adapt to such changes could harm our business. If we are slow to develop products and services that are compatible with smartphones, or if the products and services we develop are not widely accepted and used by smartphone users, we may not be able to capture a significant share of this important market. In addition, the widespread adoption of new internet, networking or telecommunications technologies or other technological changes for smartphones could require substantial expenditures to modify or adapt our products, services or infrastructure. If we fail to keep up with rapid and innovative technological changes to remain competitive, our future growth may be adversely affected.

Our international operations and availability expose us to additional risks that could harm our business, operating results, and financial condition.

In addition to uncertainty about our ability to continue expanding and monetizing internationally, there are additional risks inherent in doing business internationally including:

We are subject to numerous and sometimes conflicting U.S. and foreign laws and regulations that increase our cost of doing business. Violations of these complex laws and regulations that apply to our international operations could result in damage awards, fines, criminal actions, sanctions, or penalties against us, our officers or our employees, prohibitions on the conduct of our business and our ability to offer products and services, and damage to our reputation. Although we have implemented policies and procedures designed to promote compliance with these laws, there can be no assurance that our employees, contractors, or agents will not violate our policies. These risks inherent in our international operations and expansion increase our costs of doing business internationally and could result in harm to our business, operating results, and financial condition.

Companies and governmental agencies may restrict access to our website or mobile apps, or the Internet generally, which could lead to the loss or slower growth of our player base.

Our users need to access the internet and in particular our website or mobile application. Companies and governmental agencies, could block access to our website or mobile application or the internet generally. For example, in 2013 the Indian courts issued orders restraining internet service providers from providing access to various internet domains including Zedge’s. Access to Zedge through any mode has been blocked in many parts of India since February 2013 as discussed more fully in the Legal Proceedings section on page 52. If companies or governmental entities block or limit access to Zedge or otherwise adopt policies restricting access to our advertiser’s products and services our business could be negatively impacted resulting in a loss or slow-down of user base growth and/or revenues.

Legal proceedings or allegations of impropriety could have a material adverse impact on our reputation, results of operation, financial condition and liquidity.

We have been, and may be in the future, subject to allegations or lawsuits by entities claiming that we engage in unethical, fraudulent or otherwise inappropriate business practices. Any such lawsuit or allegation, with or without merit, or any perceived unfair, unethical, fraudulent or inappropriate business practice by us or perceived wrong doing by any key member of our management team could harm our reputation and user base and distract our management from day-to-day operations of our company. We cannot assure that we will not be subject to lawsuits or allegations in the future. Where we can make a reasonable estimate of the liability relating to pending litigation and determine that an adverse liability resulting from such litigation is probable, we will record a related contingent liability. As additional information becomes available, we will assess the potential liability and revise estimates as appropriate. In fiscal years 2015 and 2014, and in the six months ended January 31, 2016, we did not record any contingent liabilities relating to pending litigation. However, when we record or revise our estimates of contingent liabilities in the future, the amount of our estimates may be inaccurate due to the inherent uncertainties relating to litigation. In addition, the outcomes of actions we institute against third parties may not be successful or favorable to us. Litigations and allegations against us may also generate negative publicity that significantly harms our reputation, which may materially and adversely affect our user base and our ability to attract publishers and advertisers. In addition to the related cost, managing and defending litigation and related indemnity obligations can significantly divert management’s and the board of directors’ attention from operating our business. We may also need to pay damages or settle the litigation with a substantial amount of cash. All of these could have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operation and cash flows.

A variety of new and existing U.S. and foreign government laws and regulations could subject us to claims, judgments, monetary liabilities and other remedies, and to limitations on our business practices.

We are subject to numerous U.S. and foreign laws and regulations covering a wide variety of subject matters. New laws and regulations, changes in existing laws and regulations or the interpretation of them, our introduction of new products, or an extension of our business into new areas, could increase our future compliance costs, make our products and services less attractive to our users, or cause us to change or limit our business practices. We may incur substantial expenses to comply with laws and regulations or defend against a claim that we have not complied with them. Further, any failure on our part to comply with any relevant laws or regulations may subject us to significant civil or criminal liabilities, penalties, and negative publicity.

The application of existing domestic and international laws and regulations to us relating to issues such as user privacy and data protection, security, defamation, pricing, advertising, taxation, gambling, sweepstakes, promotions, consumer protection, accessibility, content regulation, quality of services, law enforcement demands, telecommunications, mobile, and intellectual property ownership and infringement in many instances is unclear or unsettled. Further, the application to us or our subsidiaries of existing laws regulating or requiring licenses for certain businesses of our advertisers can be unclear. U.S. export control laws and regulations also impose requirements and restrictions on exports to certain nations and persons and on our business. Internationally, we may also be subject to laws regulating our activities in foreign countries and to foreign laws and regulations that are inconsistent from country to country. New regulations governing the transfer of personal information outside of the European Union are being developed by regulators due to the European Court of Justice invalidating the US-EU Safe Harbor framework in October of 2015 and the new US-EU Privacy Shield agreement reached in February of 2016. The new agreement will place major new obligations on U.S. companies, the details of which have not yet been finalized. The result will likely be an increase in cost of compliance, and an increase in potential for liability for non-compliance.

In addition, the Digital Millennium Copyright Act has provisions that limit, but do not necessarily eliminate, our liability for hosting, or for listing or linking to, third party websites and apps that include materials that infringe copyrights or other rights, so long as we comply with the statutory requirements of this act. Various U.S. and international laws restrict the distribution of materials considered harmful to children and impose additional restrictions on the ability of online services to collect information from minors. In the area of data protection, most states have passed laws requiring notification to users when there is a security breach for personal data. We face similar risks and costs as our products and services are offered in international markets and may be subject to additional regulations. Although we have invested and continue to invest in systems and resources to ensure that we are compliant with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act and other U.S. and international laws around materials that infringe on copyrights or other rights or other objectionable content our systems may not be sufficient or we may unintentionally err and fail to comply with these laws and regulations which could expose us to claims, judgments, monetary liabilities and other remedies, and to limitations on our business practices.

If we are unable to license, acquire or otherwise obtain access to compelling content and services at reasonable cost or if we do not develop or commission compelling content of our own, the number of users of our services may not grow as anticipated, or may decline, or users’ level of engagement with our products and services may decline, all or any of which could harm our operating results.

Our future success depends in part on our ability to aggregate and host compelling content and deliver that content to our users. We achieve this when users upload their own user-generated content to our distribution platform or when we create content or enter into business partnerships with content owners and host this content to our distribution platform. We believe that users value high-quality content. As such we may need to make substantial payments to third parties from whom we license or acquire such content or from whom we have create this content on our behalf. Our ability to maintain and build relationships with such third party providers may become important to our success. As competition for compelling content increases both domestically and internationally, our business partners may alter business terms under which they avail their content and services to us and potential providers may not offer their content or services to us at all, or may offer them on terms that are not agreeable to us. A change in commercial terms could harm our operating results and financial condition. Further, much of the content that we acquire may only be available on a non-exclusive basis allowing competitors the ability of offering this content to our disadvantage.

We may be subject to intellectual property infringement claims or other allegations, which could require us to pay substantial statutory penalties or other damages and fines, remove relevant content, enter into license agreements, which may not be available on commercially reasonable terms or could result in our app being barred from any of the third party distribution platforms.

There may be owners of technology patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets and content, who assert claims against us. If a claim of infringement is brought against us we may be required to pay substantial penalties or other damages and fines, remove relevant content, enter into license agreements that may not be available on commercially reasonable terms or at all or be barred from any of the third party distribution platforms. Even though the allegations or claims could be baseless, defense against any of these allegations or claims would be both costly and time-consuming and could significantly divert the efforts and resources of our management and other personnel.

We may not be able to prevent others from unauthorized use of our intellectual property, which could harm our business and competitive position.

We regard our trademarks, service marks, patents, domain names, trade secrets, proprietary technologies and similar intellectual property as critical to our success, and we rely on trademark and patent law, trade secret protection and confidentiality and license agreements with our employees and others to protect our proprietary rights As of January 31, 2016, we have registered, amongst others, the following domain names: www.zedge.net and www.zedge.com. In addition, we have been granted trademark protection for “Zedge” in the U.S., E.U., U.K. and Canada and for “Tonesync” in the U.S. and E.U. As discussed in the Business section below, we also have applied for trademark protections for other marks in the U.S. and India as well as for copyright protection for our flagship app, Zedge.

Monitoring unauthorized use of our intellectual property rights is difficult and costly, and we cannot be certain that we can effectively prevent misappropriation of our intellectual property, particularly in countries where the laws may not protect our proprietary rights as fully as in the United States. From time to time, we may have to resort to litigation to enforce our intellectual property rights, which could result in substantial costs and diversion of our resources.

In addition, it is often difficult to create and enforce intellectual property rights in certain international markets. Patents, trademarks and service marks may also be invalidated, circumvented, or challenged. Trade secrets are difficult to protect, and our trade secrets may be leaked or otherwise become known or be independently discovered by others. Confidentiality agreements may be breached, and we may not have adequate remedies for any breach. Even where adequate and relevant laws exist it may not be possible to obtain swift and equitable enforcement of such laws, or to obtain enforcement of a court judgment or an arbitration award delivered in another jurisdiction, and accordingly, we may not be able to effectively protect our intellectual property rights or enforce agreements in such countries.

We rely on third parties to provide the technologies necessary to deliver content, advertising, and services to our users, and any change in the licensing terms, costs, availability, or acceptance of these formats and technologies could adversely affect our business.

Our service and hosting providers may experience downtime from time to time, which may negatively affect our brand and user perception of the reliability of our service. Any scheduled or unscheduled interruption could result in an immediate, and possibly substantial, loss of revenues. Although we seek to reduce the possibility of disruptions or other outages, our product may be disrupted by problems relating either to our own technology or third party technology that is used for our product. Our systems may be vulnerable to damage or interruption from telecommunication failures, power loss, computer attacks or viruses, earthquakes, floods, fires, terrorist attacks and similar events. Parts of our system are not fully redundant or backed up, and our disaster recovery planning may not be sufficient for all eventualities. Despite any precaution we may take, the occurrence of a natural disaster or other unanticipated problems at our hosting facilities could result in lengthy interruptions in the availability of our products and services. Any interruption in the ability of our users to use our products and services could reduce our future revenues, harm our future profits, subject us to regulatory scrutiny and lead users to seek alternative internet mobile products.

There can be no assurance that these providers will continue licensing their technologies or intellectual property to us on reasonable terms, or at all. Providers may change the fees they charge users or otherwise change their business model in a manner that slows the widespread acceptance of their technologies. Any change in the licensing terms, costs, availability, or user acceptance of these technologies could adversely affect our business.

We use open source software in our platform that may subject our technology to general release or require us to re-engineer our solutions, which may cause harm to our business.

We use open source software in connection with our services. From time to time, companies that incorporate open source software into their products have faced claims challenging the ownership of open source software and/or compliance with open source license terms. Therefore, we could be subject to suits by parties claiming ownership of what we believe to be open source software or noncompliance with open source licensing terms. Some open source software licenses require users who distribute or make available open source software as part of their software to publicly disclose all or part of the source code to such software and/or make available any derivative works of the open source code on unfavorable terms or at no cost. While we monitor our use of open source software and try to ensure that none is used in a manner that would require us to disclose the source code or that would otherwise breach the terms of an open source agreement, such use could nevertheless occur and we may be required to release our proprietary source code, pay damages for breach of contract, re-engineer our applications, discontinue use in the event re-engineering cannot be accomplished on a timely basis or take other remedial action that may divert resources away from our development efforts, any of which could adversely affect our business, financial condition or operating results.

Our business depends on our ability to collect and use data to deliver relevant content and ads, and any limitation on the collection and use of this data could significantly diminish the value of our services and cause us to lose clients and revenue.

When one uses our products and services, we may collect both personally identifiable and non-personally identifiable data about the user. This may include but isn’t limited to the user’s name, telephone number, email address, Facebook login credentials, phone model, operating system, location, Identifier for Advertising (IDFA), Android Advertising ID, the collection of apps running on the user’s mobile device as well as information relating to their interaction with advertisements appearing within our app. Often we use some of this data to provide a better experience for the user by delivering both relevant content and advertisements or by limiting the number of times a specific ad is presented to the same mobile device. In addition, we use some of this data for advertising reporting purposes.

Although our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service provide extensive details about how we use customer data our clients may decide not to allow us to collect some or all of this data or may limit our use of this data. Any limitation on our ability to collect data about user behavior and app interactions would likely make it more difficult for us to deliver germane content to our users and effective mobile advertising campaigns that meet the demands of our advertisers.

Although our contracts with advertisers generally permit us to aggregate data from advertising campaigns, these clients might nonetheless request that we discontinue using data obtained from their campaigns that have already been aggregated with other clients' campaign data. It would be difficult, if not impossible to comply with these requests, and these kinds of requests could also cause us to invest significant amounts of resources. Interruptions, failures or defects in our data collection, mining, analysis and storage systems, as well as privacy concerns and regulatory restrictions regarding the collection of data, could also limit our ability to aggregate and analyze mobile device user data from our clients' advertising campaigns. If that happens, we may not be able to optimize the placement of advertising for the benefit of our advertiser clients, which could make our services less valuable, and, as a result, we may lose clients and our revenue may decline.

Concerns about collection and use of personal data could damage our reputation and deter current and potential users from using our products and services, which could have material adverse effects on our business and results of operations.

Concerns about our platform with regard to the collection, use or disclosure of personal information or other privacy-related matters, even if unfounded, could damage our reputation and results of operations. We apply strict management and protection of user provided data and only use this data as described in our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service. While we strive to comply with our Privacy Policy as well as all applicable data protection laws and regulations, any failure or perceived failure to comply may result in proceedings or actions against us by government entities or others, and could damage our reputation. User and regulatory attitudes towards privacy are evolving, and future regulatory or user concerns about the extent to which personal information is used or shared with advertisers or others may adversely affect our ability to share certain data with advertisers, which may limit certain methods of targeted advertising. In addition, new regulatory requirements or orders or other federal, state or international privacy or consumer protection-related laws and regulations or proceedings or actions against us by governmental entities or others (e.g., class action privacy litigation) could result in us having to change our business practices, increase our costs and adversely affect our business. For instance, U.S. courts have begun to define a level of reasonable security that is required when maintaining personal information, and such requirements could both increase our cost of operations and subject us to liability for failure to maintain such levels of security.

Data collection, privacy and security have become the subject of increasing public concern. If internet and mobile customers were to reduce their use of our products, and services as a result of these concerns, our business could be harmed. As noted above, we are also subject to the possibility of security breaches, which themselves may result in a violation of these laws.

Concerns about the security of personal data could also lead to a decline in general usage of our products and services, which could lead to lower user numbers. A significant reduction in user numbers could have a material and adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Activities of our advertiser clients could damage our reputation or give rise to legal claims against us.

Our advertisers may not comply with federal, state and local laws, including, but not limited to, laws and regulations relating to mobile communications. Failure of our clients to comply with federal, state or local laws or our policies could damage our reputation and expose us to liability under these laws. We may also be liable to third parties for content in the ads we deliver if the artwork, text or other content involved violates copyrights, trademarks or other intellectual property rights of third parties or if the content is defamatory, unfair and deceptive, or otherwise in violation of applicable laws. Although we generally receive assurance from our advertising partners that their ads are lawful and that they have the right to use any copyrights, trademarks or other intellectual property included in an ad, and although we are normally indemnified by the advertisers, a third party or regulatory authority may still file a claim against us. Any such claims could be costly and time consuming to defend and could also hurt our reputation within the mobile advertising industry. Further, if we are exposed to legal liability, we could be required to pay substantial fines or penalties, redesign our business methods, discontinue some of our services or otherwise expend significant resources.

Security breaches or computer virus attacks could have a material adverse effect on our business prospects and results of operations.

Any significant breach of security of our computer systems could significantly harm our business, reputation and results of operations and could expose us to lawsuits brought by our users and partners and to sanctions by governmental authorities in the jurisdictions in which we operate. We cannot assure you that our IT systems will be completely secure from future security breaches or computer virus attacks. Anyone who is able to circumvent our security measures could misappropriate proprietary information, including the personal information of our users, obtaining user’s names and passwords and enabling the hackers to access user’s other online and mobile accounts, if those users use identical user names and passwords. They could also misappropriate other information, including our content. These circumventions may cause interruptions in our operations or damage our brand image and reputation. Our servers may be vulnerable to computer viruses, physical or electronic break-ins and similar disruptions, which could cause system interruptions, website slowdown or unavailability, delays in communication or transactions, or loss of data. We may be required to incur significant additional costs to protect against security breaches or to alleviate problems caused by such breaches. In addition, a significant security breach or virus attack on our system could result in a material adverse impact on our business and results of operations.

We may incur net losses and experience negative cash flow from operating activities in the future and may not be able to obtain additional capital in a timely manner or on acceptable terms, or at all.

In fiscal year 2015 and in the six months ended January 31, 2016, we generated net income, compared to a net loss incurred in fiscal year 2014. While we were profitable in those periods we may incur net losses in the future as we grow our business. In addition, we experienced cash flow from operating activities of $2.3 million, $0.8 million and $1.4 million in fiscal years 2015 and 2014 and for the six months ended January 31, 2016, respectively. Although we generated positive cash flow from operating activities, we may experience negative cash flows again in the future.

Our ability to achieve and maintain profitability and positive cash flow from operating activities depends on various factors, including but not limited to, the acceptance of our products and services by mobile internet users, the growth and maintenance of our user base, our ability to maintain existing and obtain new advertisers, our ability to grow our revenues and the effectiveness of our selling and marketing activities as well as control our costs and expenses. We may not be able to achieve or sustain profitability or positive cash flow from operating activities, and if we achieve positive operating cash flow, it may not be sufficient to satisfy our anticipated capital expenditures and other cash needs. As such, we may not be able to fund our operating expenses and expenditures and may be unable to fulfill our financial obligations as they become due, which may result in voluntary or involuntary dissolution or liquidation proceeding of our company and a total loss of your investment.  

We have granted, and may continue to grant, options, restricted shares and other types of awards under our share incentive plans, which may result in increased share-based compensation expenses.

The expenses associated with share-based compensation have affected our net income and may reduce our net income in the future, and any additional securities issued under share-based compensation schemes will dilute the ownership interests of our stockholders. We believe the granting of share-based compensation is of significant importance to our ability to attract and retain key personnel and employees, or consultants, and we will continue to grant share-based compensation in the future. As a result, our expenses associated with share-based compensation may increase, which may have an adverse effect on our results of operations.

We are exposed to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.

We have significant operations in Europe that are denominated in foreign currencies, primarily the Norwegian Kroner, subjecting us to foreign currency risk. The strengthening or weakening of the U.S. Dollar versus these currencies impacts the expenses generated in these foreign currencies when converted into the U.S. Dollar. In fiscal year 2015, foreign currency movements relative to the U.S. Dollar positively impacted gains from foreign exchange transactions by approximately $0.2 million (net of a $0.1 million loss from hedging activities).  While we regularly enter into transactions to hedge portions of our foreign currency exposure, it is impossible to predict or eliminate the effects of this exposure. Fluctuations in foreign exchange rates could significantly impact our financial results.

If we fail to implement and maintain an effective system of internal controls, we may be unable to accurately report our results of operations, meet our reporting obligations or prevent fraud.

We are a majority-owned subsidiary of IDT relying on IDT for finance, accounting, internal audit and certain legal and human resource department needs. Our independent registered public accounting firm has not conducted an audit of our internal controls over financial reporting. However, in connection with the audit of our consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2015, we and our independent registered public accounting firm identified three material weaknesses relating to Financial Reporting, Account Reconciliations and Segregation of Duties, which resulted in material audit adjustments. 

Financial Reporting

As a subsidiary of IDT our results were immaterial to IDT’s books and records. As such we did not maintain a sufficient complement of personnel (either directly or through services provided by IDT) with an appropriate level of accounting knowledge, experience, and training in the application of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) commensurate with our financial reporting requirements and business environment.   

Account Reconciliations

Account reconciliations have historically not been performed for all significant accounts or performed on a timely basis. This did not impact IDT’s books and records but was material to us on a stand-alone basis. We need to establish internal controls to identify and detect material misstatements using a stand-alone materiality level.

Segregation of Duties

With the size of our company, segregation of duties issues would inherently exist. Going forward we need to ensure that the appropriate activity level controls exist to mitigate this issue including ensuring a preparer and reviewer exists for all journal entries recorded in the general ledger.

In order to remediate the material weaknesses, we will need to either hire our own personnel, outsource to third party providers, or alternatively rely on IDT, under a services arrangement with greater service levels than were provided by IDT historically, to provide us with an adequate allotment of resources with technical accounting expertise, to design adequate review and monitoring procedures in our accounting and finance organization, and identify and implement improved processes and controls. Further we will need to design and implement a system of internal controls over financial reporting required to comply with our future obligations and to strengthen our overall control environment. This initiative will be time consuming, costly, and might place significant demands on our financial and operational resources, as well as our IT systems. However, we cannot assure you that we will be able to continue implementing these measures in the future, or that we will not identify additional material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in the future. We have started to remediate the material weaknesses by assigning IDT personnel to assist with the preparation and review of Zedge’s financial reporting and account reconciliations. We believe that this assignment of IDT personnel should also remediate the segregation of duties issues as well. However we are in the process of identifying any other segregation of duties issues that may exist in an effort to remediate them. We will monitor our progress, and take further steps to fine tune our remediation for our current business needs as we continue our evaluation.

Furthermore, it is possible that, had our independent registered public accounting firm conducted an audit of our internal control over financial reporting, such firm might have identified additional material weaknesses and deficiencies. Upon the completion of the spin-off, we will become a public company in the United States subject to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, or Section 404, a newly public company is not required to comply with either the management or the auditor reporting requirements related to internal control over financial reporting until its second annual report, if applicable. As such we will be required to include a report of management on our internal control over financial reporting in our annual report beginning with our annual report for the fiscal year ending July 31, 2017. In addition, should we become an accelerated filer, our independent registered public accounting firm must attest to and report on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. Our management may conclude that our internal control over financial reporting is not effective. Moreover, even if our management concludes that our internal control over financial reporting is effective, our independent registered public accounting firm, after conducting its own independent testing, may issue a report that is qualified if it is not satisfied with our internal controls or the level at which our controls are documented, designed, operated or reviewed, or if it interprets the relevant requirements differently from us. In addition, after we become a public company, our reporting obligations may place a significant strain on our management, operational and financial resources and systems for the foreseeable future. We may be unable to timely complete our evaluation testing and any required remediation.

During the course of documenting and testing our internal control procedures, in order to satisfy the requirements of Section 404, we may identify other weaknesses and deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting. In addition, if we fail to maintain the adequacy of our internal control over financial reporting, as these standards are modified, supplemented or amended from time to time, we may not be able to conclude on an ongoing basis that we have effective internal control over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404. If we fail to achieve and maintain an effective internal control environment, we could suffer material misstatements in our financial statements and fail to meet our reporting obligations, which would likely cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information. This could in turn limit our access to capital markets, harm our results of operations, and lead to a decline in the trading price of our stock.

Additionally, ineffective internal control over financial reporting could expose us to increased risk of fraud or misuse of corporate assets and subject us to potential delisting from the stock exchange on which we list, regulatory investigations and civil or criminal sanctions. We may also be required to restate our financial statements from prior periods.

Future strategic alliances or acquisitions may not be successful and may have a material and adverse effect on our business, reputation and results of operations.

We may enter into strategic alliances, including joint ventures or minority equity investments, with various third parties to further our business purpose from time to time. These alliances could subject us to a number of risks, including risks associated with sharing proprietary information, non-performance by the third party and increased expenses in establishing new strategic alliances, any of which may materially and adversely affect our business. We may have limited ability to monitor or control the actions of these third parties and, to the extent any of these strategic third parties suffers negative publicity or harm to their reputation from events relating to their business, we may also suffer negative publicity or harm to our reputation by virtue of our association with any such third party.

In addition, although we have no immediate acquisition plans, if appropriate opportunities arise, we may acquire additional assets, products, technologies or businesses that are complementary to our existing business. Future acquisitions and the subsequent integration of new assets and businesses into our own would require significant attention from our management and could result in a diversion of resources from our existing business, which in turn could have an adverse effect on our business operations. Acquired assets or businesses may not generate the financial results we expect. Acquisitions could result in the use of substantial amounts of cash, potentially dilutive issuances of equity securities, the occurrence of significant goodwill impairment charges, amortization expenses for other intangible assets and exposure to potential unknown liabilities of the acquired business. Moreover, the costs of identifying and consummating acquisitions may be significant. In addition to possible stockholders’ approval, we may also have to obtain approvals and licenses from relevant government authorities for the acquisitions and to comply with any applicable laws and regulations, which could result in increased delay and costs.

Our business, financial condition and results of operations, as well as our ability to obtain financing, may be adversely affected by downturn in the global economy.

The global financial markets have experienced significant disruptions over the past ten years and the recovery from the lows of 2008 and 2009 has been uneven. There is considerable uncertainty over the long-term effects of the expansionary monetary and fiscal policies adopted by the central banks and financial authorities of some of the world’s leading economies. There have also been concerns over unrest in the Middle East and Africa, which have resulted in volatility in oil and other markets. We may be affected by economic downturns. A prolonged slowdown in the world economy may lead to a reduced amount of mobile internet advertising, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Moreover, a slowdown or disruption in the global economy may have a material and adverse impact on financings available to us. The weakness in the economy could erode investor confidence, which constitutes the basis of the credit market. Turmoil affecting the financial markets and banking system may significantly restrict our ability to obtain financing in the capital markets or from financial institutions on commercially reasonable terms, or at all.

The reporting requirements associated with our being a public company could subject us to significant expenses.

As a result of the spin-off, we will become a public reporting company and will be required to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission reports required by the Exchange Act of 1934. Specifically, among other requirements, we will need to file quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, annual reports on Form 10-K and under some circumstances, current reports on Form 8-K, in accordance with strict timelines. We will also be required to file annual proxy materials. In addition, as part of those filings, we will be required to provide annual audited financial statements. Also, we will need to establish an internal audit function. We anticipate that compliance with such requirements will significantly increase our legal and accounting costs and will demand significant attention from management. The resources and time required to comply with rules applicable to public companies could divert financial and human resources from focusing on our business, and we can provide no assurance that the benefits of our being public outweigh the disadvantages and costs associated with compliance. We currently anticipate our total costs to increase by approximately $750,000 to $900,000 a year as a result of being a public reporting company.   Several of the costs included in this estimated range are preliminary, subject to negotiation, and may vary from the estimates when finalized.

There may not be an active trading market for shares of our Class B common stock and stockholders may find it difficult to transfer our securities.

Prior to the spin-off, there is no public trading market for shares of our common stock. We have applied and received authorization to have Zedge’s Class B common stock listed for trading on the NYSE MKT under the symbol “ZDGE”. We intend to satisfy all the requirements in order for Zedge’s Class B common stock to commence trading following the distribution date. We cannot predict the extent to which investor interest in us will lead to the development of an active trading market in our common stock or how liquid such a market might become. It is possible that, if our Class B common stock is eventually listed on the NYSE MKT an active trading market will not develop or continue, and there can be no assurance as to the price at which our Class B common stock will trade. The initial share price of our Class B common stock may not be indicative of prices that will prevail in any future trading market.

In addition, because of the significant changes that will take place as a result of the spin-off, the trading market for our Class B common stock and IDT’s Class B common stock after the spin-off may be significantly different from that for IDT’s Class B common stock prior to the spin-off.  

We cannot predict the price range or volatility of our Class B common stock after it is listed, and sales of a substantial number of shares of our Class B common stock may adversely affect the market price of our Class B common stock.

Investors may suffer dilution.

We may engage in equity financing to fund our future operations and growth.  If we raise additional funds by issuing equity securities, stockholders may experience significant dilution of their ownership interest (both with respect to the percentage of total securities held, and with respect to the book value of their securities) and such securities may have rights senior to those of the holders of our common stock.

We are controlled by our principal stockholder, which limits the ability of other stockholders to affect our management.

Following the spin-off, Howard S. Jonas, will be majority stockholder and a director, and will have voting power over 839,302 shares of our Class B common stock (which includes 524,775 shares of our Class A common stock, which are convertible into shares of our Class B common stock on a 1-for-1 basis, and 314,527 shares of our Class B common stock), representing approximately 66% of the combined voting power of our outstanding capital stock. Mr. Jonas is able to control matters requiring approval by our stockholders, including the election of all of the directors and the approval of significant corporate matters, including any merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of our assets. As a result, the ability of any of our other stockholders to influence our management is limited.

We intend to exercise our option for the “controlled company” exemption under NYSE MKT rules with respect to our Nominating Committee.

Following the spin-off, we will be a “controlled company” as defined in section 801(a) of the NYSE MKT Company Guide because more than 50% of the combined voting power of all of our outstanding common stock will be beneficially owned by a single stockholder. As a “controlled company,” we will be exempt from certain NYSE MKT rules requiring a board of directors with a majority of independent members, a compensation committee composed entirely of independent directors and a nominating committee composed entirely of independent directors. These independence standards are intended to ensure that directors who meet those standards are free of any conflicting interest that could influence their actions as directors. We intend to apply this “controlled company” exemption for our corporate governance practices only with respect to the independence requirements of our Nominating Committee. Accordingly, with respect to our Nominating Committee you will not have the same protections afforded to stockholders of companies that are subject to all of the corporate governance requirements of the NYSE MKT, and if we were to apply the controlled company exemption to other independence requirements, you would not have the protection afforded by those requirements either.

We have limited resources and could find it difficult to raise additional capital.

As a result of the spin-off, we will be independent from IDT. We have no operating history as an independent company, and no current sources of financing. Any financing formerly provided to any of our businesses by IDT will no longer be available. We may need to raise additional capital in order for stockholders to realize increased value on our securities. Given the current global economy, there can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain the necessary funding on commercially reasonable terms in a timely fashion. Failure to receive the funding could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, and financial condition.

Our historical and pro forma financial information may not be indicative of our future results as an independent company.

The historical and pro forma financial information we have included in this Information Statement may not reflect what our results of operations, financial position and cash flows would have been had we been an independent company during the periods presented or be indicative of what our results of operations, financial position and cash flows may be in the future when we are an independent company. Our pro forma information should not be assumed to be indicative of what our results of operations, cash flows or financial condition actually would have been as a stand-alone public company nor to be a reliable indicator of what our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition actually may be in the future.

Risks Related to the Separation from IDT

The combined post-separation value of IDT and Zedge common stock may not equal or exceed the pre-separation value of IDT common stock.

As a result of the distribution, IDT expects the trading price of IDT common stock immediately following the distribution to be lower than the “regular-way” trading price of such common stock immediately prior to the distribution because the trading price will no longer reflect Zedge’s value. The aggregate market value of the IDT common stock and Zedge common stock following the separation may be higher or lower than the market value of IDT common stock immediately prior to the separation.

If the spin-off were to fail to qualify as a reorganization for U.S. federal income tax purposes under Sections 368(a)(1)(D) and 355 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, our stockholders and/or IDT might be subject to significant tax liability.

If the spin-off fails to qualify for tax-free treatment, IDT would be treated as if it had sold the common stock of our company for its fair market value, resulting in a taxable gain to the extent of the excess of such fair market value over its tax basis in our stock. In general, our initial public stockholders would be treated as if they had received a taxable distribution equal to the fair market value of our common stock that was distributed to them. For additional information, see “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Spin-Off” beginning on page 24.

An active trading market for our common stock may not develop.

Prior to the spin-off, there has been no public market for our common stock. Although we intend to apply to list our common stock on an active trading market for our shares may never develop or be sustained following the spin-off. If an active market for our common stock does not develop, it may be difficult to sell shares you receive in the spin-off without depressing the market price for the shares or to sell your shares at all.

The trading price of the shares of our common stock is likely to be volatile, and purchasers of our common stock could incur substantial losses.

Our stock price is likely to be volatile. The stock market in general and the market for mobile internet companies in particular have experienced extreme volatility that has often been unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. As a result of this volatility, investors may not be able to sell their common stock at or above the price paid for the shares. The market price for our common stock may be influenced by many factors, including:

If securities or industry analysts do not publish research or publish unfavorable research about our business, our stock price and trading volume could decline.

The trading market for our common stock will rely in part on the research and reports that equity research analysts publish about us and our business. We do not currently have and may never obtain research coverage by equity research analysts. Equity research analysts may elect not to provide research coverage of our common stock after the completion of the spin-off, and such lack of research coverage may adversely affect the market price of our common stock. In the event we do have equity research analyst coverage, we will not have any control over the analysts or the content and opinions included in their reports. The price of our stock could decline if one or more equity research analysts downgrade our stock or issue other unfavorable commentary or research. If one or more equity research analysts ceases coverage of our company or fails to publish reports on us regularly, demand for our stock could decrease, which in turn could cause our stock price or trading volume to decline.

Our results of operations may be subject to wide fluctuations due to a number of factors, which may adversely affect the trading price of our stock.

We may experience seasonality and other fluctuations in our business, reflecting fluctuations in mobile internet and smartphone usage and advertising. Revenues from mobile application products and services are typically higher in the fourth quarter of the calendar year due to increased year-end advertising and marketing budgets. Conversely we generally experience lower advertising revenues during the first quarter due to weaker advertising spend following the holidays. Thus, our operating results in one or more future quarters or years may fluctuate substantially or fall below the expectations of securities analysts and investors. In such event, the trading price of our stock may fluctuate significantly.

We may not achieve some or all of the expected benefits of the separation, and the separation could harm our business.

We may not be able to achieve the full strategic and financial benefits expected to result from the separation, or such benefits may be delayed or not occur at all. The separation and distribution is expected to provide the following benefits, among others: enhanced strategic and management focus; better ability to form strategic partnerships and relationships; faster decision-making; more efficient allocation of capital; alignment of incentives with performance objectives; direct access to the capital markets; and a distinct investment identity.

We may not achieve these and other anticipated benefits for a variety of reasons, including, among others:

If we fail to achieve some or all of the benefits expected to result from the separation, or if such benefits are delayed, our business could be harmed.

If we are unable to attract and retain highly qualified employees, we may not be able to grow effectively.

Our ability to compete and grow depends in large part on the efforts and talents of our employees. Such employees, particularly product managers, designers and engineers, are in high demand, and we devote significant resources to identifying, hiring, training, successfully integrating and retaining these employees. The loss of employees or the inability to hire additional skilled employees as necessary could result in significant disruptions to our business, and the integration of replacement personnel could be time-consuming and expensive and cause additional disruptions to our business.

We believe that two critical components of our success are our ability to retain our best people by preserving our culture and maintaining competitive compensation practices. As we continue to grow rapidly, and we develop the infrastructure of a public company, we may find it difficult to maintain our entrepreneurial, execution-focused culture. In addition, some of our employees may be able to receive material proceeds from sales of our equity in the public markets after our separation from IDT, which may reduce their motivation to continue to work for us.

Our limited operating history makes it difficult to evaluate our business and prospects and may increase your investment risk.

We have only a limited operating history upon which you can evaluate our business and prospects. Although we have experienced significant revenue growth in recent periods, it is likely that we will not be able to sustain this growth. As part of the nascent mobile advertising industry, we will encounter risks and difficulties frequently encountered by early-stage companies in rapidly evolving industries, including the need to:

If we do not successfully address these risks, our revenue could decline and our ability to pursue our growth strategy and attain profitability could be compromised.

Our net operating loss carryforwards may expire unutilized or underutilized, which could prevent us from offsetting future taxable income.

We may be limited in the portion of net operating loss carryforwards that we can use in the future to offset taxable income for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Our gross state net operating loss carryforwards are equal to or less than the federal net operating loss carryforwards and expire over various periods based on individual state tax law.

We periodically assess the likelihood that we will be able to recover our net deferred tax assets. We consider all available evidence, both positive and negative, including historical levels of income, expectations and risks associated with estimates of future taxable income and ongoing prudent and feasible profits. As a result of this analysis of all available evidence, both positive and negative, we concluded that a full valuation allowance against our net deferred tax assets should be applied as of January 31, 2016. To the extent we determine that all or a portion of our valuation allowance is no longer necessary, we will recognize an income tax benefit in the period such determination is made for the reversal of the valuation allowance. Once the valuation allowance is eliminated or reduced, its reversal will no longer be available to offset our current tax provision. These events could have a material impact on our reported results of operations.

THE SPIN-OFF

After a strategic review of IDT’s operations and costs, IDT determined that separating Zedge’s businesses from its other operations would best facilitate the growth and exploitation of Zedge’s position and presence under its own management focus and long-term growth plans and allow Zedge to create more long-term value than to continue to have Zedge controlled by IDT. In addition, by separating from the remaining IDT businesses, the separate entities may avoid exposure to the risks associated with the other company’s businesses.

The transaction is intended to be in the form of a tax-free distribution to IDT’s stockholders. IDT’s Board of Directors established a record date of May 26, 2016 and established a payment date for the spin-off shortly before the completion of the distribution.  You should consult your own tax advisor concerning the tax impact of the spin-off on you.

Reasons for the Spin-Off

IDT’s Board of Directors believes that the spin-off will allow Zedge to better focus on its strategic mission and that its prospects will be better served as an independent entity. Zedge provides one of the most popular content distribution platforms, worldwide, centered on self-expression, attracting both creators looking to promote their content and consumers who utilize such content to express their identity, feelings, tastes and interests. Today, Zedge’s platform is optimized for mobile device personalization including ringtones, wallpapers, home screen icons and notification sounds. The Zedge smartphone app, available in the Google Play, iTunes and Microsoft Market app stores, has been installed over 190 million times, has more than 32 million monthly active users and has averaged among the top 25 free applications in the Google Play store in the U.S. for the past six years and is ranked in the top 10 most popular free apps in the iTunes Entertainment category. Zedge has grown its user base without material investment in marketing, user acquisition or advertising. 

Management believes that separating Zedge from the remaining IDT businesses will allow management of each of IDT and Zedge to design and implement corporate strategies and policies that are based solely on the business characteristics of that company and the industry in which they compete, to maintain a sharper focus on core business and growth opportunities, and to concentrate their financial resources wholly on their own operations. The companies will be able to reinvest the proceeds from their operations into their businesses, find other ways to deploy those resources or distribute value to that company’s shareholders.

Management believes that a smaller entity with fewer diverse business interests and a focus on the internet and mobile applications is needed to best position Zedge for continued growth. This structure will allow Zedge to better position itself as a mobile internet growth company opening the door for new partnerships, creating transparency and prioritizing opportunities that may not align with IDT’s core business priorities. Management believes that this will be better accomplished as part of an independent Zedge and not as a controlled subsidiary of IDT. Because of the need of having management with complete decision making authority to achieve the full strategic and financial benefits that they believe possible for Zedge, this is not practicable in a non-taxable transaction that did not result in a full separation from IDT. Further, as IDT has previously disclosed, IDT is working toward another spin-off that will separate IDT Telecom and many of its other interests.

In addition, IDT and Zedge also believe that management of Zedge may better be able to enhance the value of Zedge under the proposed structure more so than was possible as part of IDT or as a standalone entity, due to Zedge’s ability to attract talent, new business partners and establish a well-recognized brand.

IDT initially announced its intent to spin-off Zedge as part of larger strategic restructuring in August 2015.

In August 2015, the IDT Board of Directors determined that a spin-off of Zedge independent of the spin-off of the other proposed entities, presented an opportunity to realize synergies from the overlap of the nature and approach to generate value from those businesses and eliminate restrictions on those efforts that resulted from being part of IDT, and authorized the spin-off of Zedge in its current form. The determination is based on the belief that it is the plan with the greatest likelihood of realizing the greatest value to the IDT shareholders.

On March 7, 2016, the IDT Board of Directors gave its final approval for the spin-off in the form described in this information statement.

IDT’s Board of Directors weighed the reasons for the spin-off and the other benefits it is expected to bring against the negative impacts thereof, including the one-time costs of effecting the spin-off, the increased costs of maintaining IDT and Zedge as separate public companies, the possibility of reduced liquidity in the market for the Zedge common stock as a smaller company and the disruption on operations caused by the separation. The Board of Directors concluded that the reasons and benefits outweighed the negative impacts and elected to proceed with the spin-off. 

Other Benefits of the Spin-Off

The Board of Directors of IDT considered the following potential benefits in making the determination to effect the spin-off:

Neither Zedge nor IDT can assure you that, following the spin-off, any of these benefits will be realized to the extent anticipated or at all. For a description of the factors that might impact our ability to achieve these benefits, see “Risk Factors.”

Negative Factors

In evaluating the spin-off, the IDT’s Board of Directors also considered a number of other factors that may have weighed against proceeding, including:

IDT’s Board of Directors concluded, however, that the potential long-term benefits of the spin-off outweigh these factors, and that separating us from IDT in the form of a tax-free distribution is appropriate and advisable.

Manner of Effecting the Spin-Off

The general terms and conditions relating to the spin-off are set forth in the Separation and Distribution Agreement between us and IDT. The spin-off will be effective at 11:59 p.m., New York City time on the distribution date, which will be on or about June 1, 2016. As a result of the spin-off, each IDT stockholder will receive one share of our Class A common stock for every three shares of IDT Class A common stock and one share of our Class B common stock for every three shares of IDT Class B common stock held as of the record date. The distribution agent will first convert shares of our Class A common stock into Class B common stock and then aggregate fractional shares of our Class B common stock into whole shares, sell the respective whole shares in the open market at prevailing market prices and distribute the aggregate net cash proceeds of the respective sales pro rata to each holder of our Class A common stock and Class B common stock, respectively, who otherwise would have been entitled to receive a fractional share in the distribution. Recipients of cash in lieu of fractional shares will not be entitled to any interest on the amounts of payment made in lieu of fractional shares. The receipt of cash in lieu of fractional shares generally will be taxable to the recipient stockholders as described in “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Spin-Off” beginning on page 24.

In order to be entitled to receive shares of our common stock in the spin-off, IDT stockholders must be stockholders as of the record date. The distribution of shares of our Class B common stock will be paid in book-entry form and physical stock certificates will be issued only to holders of our Class A common stock and, upon request, to holders of our Class B common stock. Each share of our Class A common stock and Class B common stock that is distributed will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and free of preemptive rights. See “Description of Our Capital Stock” beginning on page 53.

IDT stockholders will not be required to pay for shares of our Class A common stock and Class B common stock received in the spin-off or to surrender or exchange shares of IDT Class A common stock and/or Class B common stock in order to receive our common stock or to take any other action in connection with the spin-off. No vote of IDT stockholders is required or sought in connection with the spin-off, and IDT stockholders will have no appraisal rights in connection with the spin-off.

If any stockholder of IDT on the record date sells shares of IDT common stock after the record date but on or before the spin-off date, the buyer of those shares, and not the seller, will become entitled to receive the shares of our common stock issuable in respect of the shares sold. See “Trading Between the Record Date and Spin-Off Date” below for more information.

Trading Between the Record Date and Distribution Date

Beginning on or shortly before the record date and continuing up to and including through the distribution date, we expect that there will be two markets in IDT Class B common stock: a “regular-way” market and an “ex-distribution” market. Shares of IDT Class B common stock that trade on the regular-way market will trade with an entitlement to receive shares of Zedge Class B common stock distributed pursuant to the distribution. Shares that trade on the ex-distribution market will trade without an entitlement to receive shares of Zedge Class B common stock distributed pursuant to the distribution. Therefore, if you sell shares of IDT Class B common stock in the “regular-way” market after the close of business on the record date and up to and including through the distribution date, you will be selling your right to receive shares of Zedge Class B common stock in the distribution. If you own shares of IDT Class B common stock at the close of business on the record date and sell those shares on the “ex-distribution” market, up to and including through the distribution date, you will still receive the shares of Zedge Class B common stock that you would be entitled to receive pursuant to your ownership of the shares of IDT Class B common stock.

Furthermore, beginning on or shortly before the record date and continuing up to and including through the distribution date, we expect that there will be a “when-issued” market in our Class B common stock. “When-issued” trading refers to a sale or purchase made conditionally because the security has been authorized but not yet issued. The “when-issued” trading market will be a market for shares of Zedge Class B common stock that will be distributed to IDT stockholders on the distribution date. If you owned shares of IDT Class B common stock at the close of business on the record date, you would be entitled to shares of our common stock distributed pursuant to the distribution. You may trade this entitlement to shares of Zedge Class B common stock, without trading the shares of IDT Class B common stock you own, on the “when-issued” market. On the first trading day following the distribution date, “when-issued” trading with respect to Zedge Class B common stock will end and “regular-way” trading will begin. However, neither method of trading will occur on the NYSE MKT unless our Class B common stock has received prior approval for listing.

Results of the Spin-Off

After the spin-off, we will be a separately traded, public company. Immediately following the spin-off, we expect to have approximately 1 record holder of our Class A common stock and 522 record holders of shares of our Class B common stock based on the number of beneficial and record holders, respectively, of shares of IDT Class A common stock and Class B common stock on May 26, 2016 and non-IDT holders of shares prior to the spin-off. These numbers do not include the number of persons whose shares are in nominee or in “street name” accounts through brokers. The actual number of shares to be distributed will be determined on the record date and will reflect any exercise of IDT stock options between the date the Board of Directors of IDT declares the distribution for the spin-off and the record date for the spin-off.

We and IDT will be parties to a number of agreements that govern the spin-off and the future relationship between the two companies. For a more detailed description of these agreements, please see “Our Relationship with IDT After the Spin-” beginning on page 50.

Treatment of Stock Options Issued by IDT in the Spin-Off

In the spin-off, the exercise price of each outstanding option to purchase IDT Class B common stock that was issued by IDT will be proportionately reduced based on the relative trading prices of IDT and Zedge following the spin-off.

Interest of Zedge Officers and Directors

The interest of our officers and board of directors in the spin-off is reflected in their stock ownership as set forth in the Security Ownership and Certain Beneficial Owners and Management table as certain of them will be receiving shares of our common stock as a result of the distribution.

Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Spin-Off

The following is a summary of the material U.S. federal income tax consequences to IDT, the holders of IDT Class A common stock and Class B common stock, us and the holders of our common stock after the spin-off as of the date hereof. This summary does not discuss all tax considerations that may be relevant to stockholders in light of their particular circumstances, nor does it address the consequences to stockholders subject to special treatment under the U.S. federal income tax laws, such as stockholders subject to the alternative minimum tax, tax-exempt entities, non-resident alien individuals, foreign entities, foreign trusts and estates and beneficiaries thereof, stockholders who acquire shares as compensation for services (including holders of IDT restricted stock who did not make a Section 83(b) election), banks, insurance companies, other financial institutions, traders in securities that use mark-to-market accounting, and dealers in securities or commodities. In addition, this summary does not address any state, local or foreign tax consequences. This summary is based upon provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”), Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, pertinent judicial authorities, rulings of the Internal Revenue Service and such other relevant authorities, in effect on the date hereof. Those authorities may be changed, perhaps retroactively, so as to result in U.S. federal income tax consequences different from those summarized below.

This summary is limited to holders of shares of IDT common stock that are U.S. Holders, as defined immediately below. A U.S. Holder is a beneficial owner of IDT common stock that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

This summary does not address the U.S. federal income tax consequences to IDT stockholders who do not hold shares of IDT common stock as a capital asset. Moreover, this summary does not address any state, local or foreign tax consequences or any estate, gift or other non-income tax consequences.

If a partnership (or any other entity treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) holds shares of IDT common stock, the tax treatment of a partner in that partnership will generally depend on the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. Such partner or partnership should consult its own tax advisor as to the tax consequences of the distribution.

YOU SHOULD CONSULT YOUR OWN TAX ADVISOR WITH RESPECT TO THE U.S. FEDERAL, STATE AND LOCAL AND NON-U.S. TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE DISTRIBUTION.

THIS SUMMARY IS NOT INTENDED TO BE, NOR SHOULD IT BE CONSTRUED TO BE, LEGAL OR TAX ADVICE TO ANY PARTICULAR INVESTOR

IDT expects to receive a legal opinion from Pryor Cashman LLP as to the U.S. federal income tax treatment of the distribution. The legal opinion will provide that the distribution should qualify as a transaction described in Section 368(a)(1)(D) of the Code and Section 355(a) of the Code. An opinion of independent tax attorneys is not binding on the IRS or the courts. In addition, there is no direct authority on point with respect to some of the conclusions in the opinion and therefore the IRS or the courts may disagree with these conclusions. The opinion will be based on, among other things, current tax law and assumptions and representations as to factual matters made by IDT, which if incorrect in certain material respects, would jeopardize the conclusions reached in the opinion. Neither we nor IDT are currently aware of any facts or circumstances that would cause these assumptions and representations to be untrue or incorrect in any material respect or that would jeopardize the conclusions reached by Pryor Cashman LLP in the opinion.

Assuming the distribution qualifies under Section 355 of the Code, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, we believe that:

If, notwithstanding the conclusions included in the opinion, it is ultimately determined that the distribution does not qualify as tax-free for IDT for U.S. federal income tax purposes, then IDT would recognize gain in an amount equal to the excess of the fair market value of our common stock distributed to IDT stockholders over IDT's tax basis in such shares.

In addition, if the distribution were not to qualify as tax-free for IDT's stockholders for U.S. federal income tax purposes, each IDT stockholder that is subject to U.S. federal income tax and who receives our common stock in the distribution could be treated as receiving a distribution in an amount equal to the fair market value of our common stock that was distributed to the stockholder, which generally would be taxed as a dividend to the extent of the stockholder’s pro rata share of IDT's current and accumulated earnings and profits and then treated as a non-taxable return of capital to the extent of the stockholder’s basis in the IDT stock and finally as capital gain from the sale or exchange of IDT stock.

Even if the distribution otherwise qualifies for tax-free treatment under Section 355 of the Code, it may result in corporate level taxable gain to IDT under Section 355(e) of the Code if 50% or more, by vote or value, of our stock or IDT’s stock is acquired or issued as part of a plan or series of related transactions that includes the distribution. For this purpose, any acquisitions or issuances of IDT's stock within two years before the distribution, and any acquisitions or issuances of our stock or IDT's stock within two years after the distribution may be presumed to be part of such a plan, although we or IDT may be able to rebut that presumption. We are not aware of any acquisitions or issuances of IDT’s stock within the two years before the distribution that would be considered to occur as part of a plan or series of related transactions that includes the distribution. If an acquisition or issuance of our stock or IDT’s stock triggers the application of Section 355(e) of the Code, IDT would recognize taxable gain as described above and such gain would be subject to U.S. federal income tax.

A merger, recapitalization or acquisition, or issuance or redemption of our common stock after the spin-off, in some circumstances, could be counted toward the 50% change of ownership threshold. As a result, we may be unable to engage in strategic or capital raising transactions that stockholders might consider favorable, or to structure potential transactions in the manner most favorable to us.

If you receive cash in lieu of a fractional share of our common stock, you will be treated as though you first received a distribution of the fractional share in the spin-off and then sold it for the amount of such cash. You will recognize capital gain or loss, provided that the fractional share is considered to be held as a capital asset, measured by the difference between the cash you receive for such fractional share and your tax basis in that fractional share, as determined above.

If you are a “significant distributee” with respect to the spin-off, you are required to attach a statement to your federal income tax return for the year in which the spin-off occurs setting forth our name and IRS employer identification number, IDT’s name and IRS employer identification number, the date of the spin-off, and the fair market value of the shares of our common stock that you receive in the spin-off. Upon request, IDT will provide the information necessary to comply with this reporting requirement to each stockholder of record as of the record date. You are a “significant distributee” with respect to the spin-off if you own at least 5% of the outstanding shares of IDT common stock immediately before the spin-off. You should consult your own tax advisor concerning the application of this reporting requirement in light of your particular circumstances.

Certain State Income Tax Matters

The above discussion does not address any tax consequences of the spin-off other than the material U.S. federal income tax consequences set forth above.  IDT stockholders are encouraged to consult their tax advisors concerning all possible state income tax consequences of the spin-off.

Listing and Trading of Common Stock

There is currently no public market for our common stock. We have applied and received authorization to have Zedge’s Class B common stock listed for trading on the NYSE MKT under the symbol “ZDGE”. We intend to satisfy all the requirements in order for Zedge’s Class B common stock to commence trading following the distribution date.

We anticipate that trading of our Class B common stock will commence on a when-issued basis on or shortly before the record date. When-issued trading refers to a sale or purchase made conditionally because the security has been authorized but not yet issued. On the first trading day following the distribution date, when-issued trading with respect to our Class B common stock will end and regular way trading will begin. Regular way trading refers to trading after a security has been issued and typically involves a transaction that settles on the third full business day following the date of the transaction.

We cannot predict what the trading price for our Class B common stock will be before or after the distribution date.  We also cannot predict any change that may occur in the trading price of IDT Class B common stock as a result of the spin-off. Until our Class B common stock is fully distributed and an orderly market develops, the prices at which it trades may fluctuate significantly and may be lower or higher than the price that would be expected for a fully distributed issue. See “Risk Factors--Risk Factors Generally Relating to Us and Our Common Stock.”

The shares of our Class B common stock distributed to IDT stockholders will be freely transferable except for shares received by persons who may be deemed to be our “affiliates” under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Persons that may be considered affiliates of us after the spin-off generally include individuals or entities that control, are controlled by or are under common control with us. This may include some or all of our officers and directors as well as our principal stockholders. Persons that are our affiliates will be permitted to sell their shares only pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, such as the exemptions afforded by Section 4(1) of the Securities Act or Rule 144 thereunder.

Following the spin-off, the number of shares of each of our Class A common stock and Class B common stock, other than Class B common stock that will be freely transferable, that could be sold pursuant to Securities Act Rule 144 or that we have agreed to register under the Securities Act for sale by resale is [________] and [________] respectively.

We do not intend to list or quote our Class A common stock on any exchange or trading system.

Reason for Furnishing this Information Statement

This information statement is being furnished solely to provide information to IDT stockholders who will receive shares of our common stock in the spin-off. It is not and is not to be construed as an inducement or encouragement to buy or sell any securities. We believe that the information contained in this information statement is accurate as of the date set forth on the cover. Changes may occur after that date and neither we nor IDT undertakes any obligation to update the information except in the normal course of our respective public disclosure obligations.

DIVIDEND POLICY

We do not anticipate paying dividends on our common stock until we achieve sustainable profitability (after satisfying all of our operational needs) and retain certain minimum cash reserves. Distributions will be subject to the need to retain earnings for investment in growth opportunities or the acquisition of complementary assets. The payment of dividends in any specific period will be at the sole discretion of our Board of Directors. 

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL DATA

The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial data reported below consist of an unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet as of January 31, 2016 and unaudited pro forma consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the six months ended January 31, 2016 and for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2015. The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial data reported below should be read in conjunction with our “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” our audited consolidated financial statements as of July 31, 2015 and 2014 and for the fiscal years then ended and the notes thereto, and the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements as of January 31, 2016 and for the six months ended January 31, 2016 and 2015 and the notes thereto, all of which are included elsewhere in this Information Statement.

The pro forma consolidated balance sheet adjustments assume that our spin-off from IDT occurred as of January 31, 2016. The pro forma adjustments to the consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the six months ended January 31, 2016 and for the year ended July 31, 2015 assume that the spin-off occurred as of August 1, 2014.

In connection with and prior to the spin-off, IDT and certain other equity holders of Zedge are expected to purchase a total of $3 million of our common stock at a pre-investment valuation for us of $27 million. In addition, it is expected that any intercompany balance due to IDT as of the spin-off date will be repaid prior to the completion of the spin-off. There will be no indebtedness owing from us to IDT immediately following the spin-off. The following unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements reflect the purchase of our commons stock and the repayment of our intercompany balance due to IDT prior to the spin-off as described above. The following unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements reflect the recapitalization of 42,481 outstanding shares of our Series A convertible preferred stock, 56,295 outstanding shares of our Series B convertible preferred stock, 947 outstanding shares of our Series B convertible preferred stock in excess of the amount authorized that is included in Mezzanine Equity, and 35,517 outstanding shares of our common stock, an aggregate of 135,240 total outstanding shares. Including the shares of our Class B common stock expected to be purchased for $3 million, our total pro forma shares outstanding will be an aggregate of 9,311,480 shares, comprised of 524,775 shares of our Class A common stock and 8,786,705 shares of our Class B common stock.

In the distribution of our shares held by IDT to its stockholders, each IDT stockholder will receive one share of our Class A common stock for every three shares of IDT Class A common stock and one share of our Class B common stock for every three shares of IDT Class B common stock held on the record date for the spin-off. The distribution by IDT to its stockholders is expected to include (i) 524,775 shares of our Class A common stock, based on 1,574,326 shares of IDT Class A common stock outstanding on the record date and (ii) 7,151,559 shares of our Class B common stock, based on 21,454,677 shares of IDT Class B common stock outstanding on the record date.  

The unaudited pro forma financial statements assume that the charges for the services that IDT will provide to us will be similar to those currently being charged via inter-company billings. Accordingly, the pro forma financial statements assume that future service agreements will not result in a significantly different impact on our results of operations as compared to periods preceding the spin-off. 

In addition, the service agreements between IDT and Zedge may include additional services to be provided by IDT to Zedge following the spin-off that will be required by Zedge, as a separate publicly-traded company. Such services may include assistance with internal audit, periodic reports required to be filed with the SEC, as well as maintaining minutes, books and records of meetings of the Board of Directors and its committees. Charges for these additional services were not included in the historical consolidated financial statements or in the pro forma adjustments since they were not applicable for periods that we were not a separate public company. The additional costs (including for services that may be provided by IDT and others) related to being a publicly-traded company and being separated from IDT, are currently estimated to be between $750,000 and $900,000 annually. Several of the costs included in this estimated range are preliminary, subject to negotiation, and may vary from the estimates when finalized.

The unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet and unaudited consolidated statements of comprehensive income included in this Information Statement have been derived from our audited and unaudited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Information Statement and do not purport to represent what our financial position, results of operations or cash flows actually would have been had the spin-off occurred on the dates indicated, or to project financial performance for any future period.
