IDT CorporationThird Quarter Fiscal 2011 Results - Questions and Answers
Within its 3Q11 earnings release and during management’s discussion of results for the quarter, IDT Corporation (NYSE: IDT) offered to respond in writing to questions from investors and other interested persons.
We asked questioners to e-mail questions to invest@idt.net by the close of business on Friday, June 17, 2011. We said that, in those instances where we could provide a constructive answer, we would post the questions received along with the name of the questioner and the questioner’s business affiliation – if any – and our answers on IDT Corporation’s website. This document was prepared and posted on the IDT website to fulfill that commitment. It is also being filed with the SEC in a Form 8-K.
Thank you for your continued interest in IDT Corporation.

Third Quarter Fiscal 2011 - Management’s Answers to Investor Questions
June 21, 2011
Question from Caroline Yu, Breithorn Capital Management

1.
|
What do you anticipate the higher operating costs for IEI to be in future quarters?
|
Genie Oil and Gas’s total costs and expenses for the first nine months of fiscal 2011 totaled $7.9 million, of which $5.8 million was research and development expense, compared to total costs and expenses of $4.6 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2010 including $3.7 million in research and development expense. Nearly all of these costs are attributable to IEI, as we account for AMSO using the equity method.
We anticipate that IEI’s costs will increase significantly in fiscal 2012 once IEI completes permitting of its pilot and begins construction of its pilot test facilities.
