As shown in the accompanying financial statements, ATSI incurred net loss from operations of $360,000 and net loss from operations of $639,000 during the nine months ended April 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, has an accumulated deficit of $73 million and a working capital deficit of $531,000 as of April 30, 2007. These conditions create doubt as to ATSI’s ability to continue as a going concern. In order to remain a going concern, ATSI anticipates it will generate positive cash flows from its operations and/or generate cash from debt or equity offerings. There is no assurance that ATSI will be able to continue generating positive cash flows from its operations or obtain funding to remain as a going concern. Management plans to continue to improve its financial position through the growth of its operations subject to its capital limitations. ATSI's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the ongoing support of its stockholders and customers. ATSI's ability to continue generating sufficient income from operations to cover its operating expense and its ability to obtain capital resources to support expansion. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if ATSI is unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Stock based compensation

Effective February 1, 2006, ATSI began recording compensation expense associated with stock options and other forms of equity compensation in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment, as interpreted by SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107. Prior to February 1, 2006, ATSI had accounted for stock options according to the provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25;“Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees”, and related interpretations, and no compensation expense was recorded for awards granted without intrinsic value. ATSI adopted the modified prospective transition method as permitted under SFAS No. 123(R), and, consequently, has not retroactively adjusted results from prior periods. Under this modified prospective transition method, compensation cost associated with stock options recognized during fiscal 2006 includes the amortization related to the remaining service periods of all stock option awards granted prior to February 1, 2006, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions of SFAS No. 123.

The following table illustrates the effect on net loss and net loss per share if ATSI had applied the fair value provisions of FASB Statement No. 123(R), to stock-based employee compensation:

NOTE 4 - STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

In September 2005, ATSI adopted the “2005 Stock Compensation Plan” (the “Plan”). The “Plan” authorizes the grant of up to 7.5 million warrants, stock options, restricted common shares, non-restricted common shares and other awards to employees, directors, and certain other persons. The “Plan” is intended to permit ATSI to retain and attract qualified individuals who will contribute to the overall success of ATSI. The terms of any grants under the Plan are determined by the Board of Directors of ATSI. Exercise prices of all of the warrants and stock options and other awards will vary based on the market price of the shares of common stock as of the date of grant. The warrants, stock options, restricted common stock, non-restricted common stock and other awards vest based on the terms of the individual grant.
 
The issuances under the “2005 Stock Compensation Plan” during the nine months ended April 30, 2007 are:

· ATSI granted 1,345,000 options to purchase common stock to its employees and members of the Board of Directors with an exercise price of $0.21 per share, the closing price of ATSI’s common stock on the grant date, September 25, 2006. One third of the options vested immediately at the issuance date and the remaining two-thirds will vest equally over a period of two years. Under the fair value option method, ATSI recognized $71,000 of compensation expense associated with the vested options at the date of grant. ATSI will recognize the remaining $142,000 of non-cash compensation expense related to un-vested options over the service period.

· ATSI issued 980,000 shares of unrestricted common stock to its employees and directors for services rendered. See Note 6 for details.

The fair value of each option and warrant granted is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions:

NOTE 5 - DEBTS

On November 3, 2006, ATSI issued a note payable in the amount of $250,000 to CCA Financial Services, Inc. This note bears an interest at the rate of 16%, provides for eleven monthly principal and interest payments of $7,807 and a final payment at maturity of $200,000, is secured by ATSI’s equipment, deposit accounts and accounts receivables and matures on November 3, 2007. ATSI has the option of paying off the total outstanding principal balance at any time without any penalties. In connection with the transaction ATSI paid an application, legal and documentation fees of $7,500.

On November 3, 2006, ATSI entered into an accounts receivable factoring agreement with CCA Financial Services, Inc. Under the agreement, CCA Financial Services committed to purchase up to $1,000,000 of ATSI’s accounts receivables. The factoring agreement is for twelve months and ATSI can terminate this agreement at its sole discretion at any time, subject to a $10,000 early termination fee. The factoring rate ranges from 1.00%-1.25% based on the factored amount and number of days outstanding. The accounts receivable factoring agreement is secured by ATSI’s accounts receivables. As of April 30, 2007, ATSI did not have any factored receivables outstanding under this agreement.

During the nine months ended April 30, 2007, ATSI entered into various notes payable for net proceeds of $564,600. These promissory notes mature on May 28, 2007 and bear an annual interest rate of 12%. On February 1, 2007, ATSI notified the holders of the notes of its intent to convert the outstanding principal and interest into common stock. The conversion price was set by ATSI at $0.22 per share, which was approximately 80% of the market price at February 1, 2007. A beneficial conversion feature for the difference between the closing price and the conversion price was recognized in accordance with EITF 98-5 and EITF 00-27. The beneficial conversion feature is presented as a discount to the related debt or a dividend to the related equity, with an offsetting amount increasing additional paid-in capital. As a result, ATSI recognized $143,723 in discount from the beneficial conversion feature at the time of the issuance and issued 2,566,482 common shares to the note holders. In addition, ATSI issued 238,636 shares of common stock with a fair value of $66,818 and made a cash payment of $26,960 for services provided by the placement agents in connection with the placement of the notes. As of April 30, 2007, the entire discount has been expensed by ATSI as the result of the conversion of all notes to common shares.

On February 7, 2007, ATSI paid off its $16,000 note payable with Mr. John Fleming, a director of ATSI.

On March 28, 2007, ATSI entered into a note payable in the amount of $100,000 with Wells Fargo Bank. This note bears an annual interest rate of 7%, provides for twelve monthly principal and interest payments of $4,481, and is secured by ATSI’s certificate of deposit for $100,000. ATSI has the option of paying off the total outstanding principal balance at any time without any penalties.

ATSI analyzed these instruments for derivative accounting consideration under SFAS 133 and EITF 00-19, and determined that derivative accounting is not applicable.

NOTE 6 - COMMON STOCK

During the nine months ended April 30, 2007:

NOTE 7 - PREFERRED STOCK DIVIDEND

During the nine months ended April 30, 2007, ATSI reversed previously recorded accrued dividends payable on outstanding shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and Series H Convertible Preferred Stock in the amount of $828,000. The adjustment to the accrued dividends occurred as a result of the conversion of 2,750 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and 11,802,420 shares of Series H Convertible Preferred Stock into 16,261,847 shares of ATSI's common stock. Upon conversion of these preferred shares, ATSI reversed the balance previously accrued for dividends with a corresponding amount recorded to common stock at par value and additional paid in capital.  The reversal is reflected as a reconciling item on the statements of operations to derive net income to common stockholders.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATIONS

SPECIAL NOTE: This Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. “Forward looking statements” are those statements that describe management’s beliefs and expectations about the future. We have identified forward-looking statements by using words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “could,” “estimate,” “may,” “expect,” and “intend.” Although we believe these expectations are reasonable, our operations involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Some of these risks include the availability and capacity of competitive data transmission networks, the continued effectiveness of our concession from the government of Mexico, and or ability to raise sufficient capital to continue operations. Additional risks are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-KSB filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 10, 2006.

The following is a discussion of the consolidated financial condition and results of operations of ATSI for the three and nine months ended April 30, 2007 and 2006. As used in this section, the term “fiscal 2007” means the year ending July 31, 2007 and “fiscal 2006” means the year ended July 31, 2006.

General

We are an international telecommunications carrier that utilizes the Internet to provide cost-efficient and economical international telecommunications services. Our current operations consist primarily of providing digital voice communications over the Internet using Voice-over-Internet-Protocol ("VoIP"). We provide high quality voice and enhanced telecommunication services to carriers, telephony resellers and other VoIP carriers through various agreements with service providers in the United States, Mexico, Asia, the Middle East and Latin America utilizing VoIP technology. Our services include:

Carrier Services:  We currently provide VoIP communication services to U.S. and foreign telecommunications companies that lack transmission facilities, require additional capacity or do not have the regulatory licenses to terminate traffic in Mexico, Asia, the Middle East and Latin America. Typically, these telecommunications companies offer their services to the public for domestic and international long distance services.

Communication Services: We provide retail local phone service and international VoIP long distance service to the U.S. Hispanic market throughout Texas, mainly in the Rio Grande Valley. Our local phone service includes access to a landline and value-added services such a caller ID and call waiting. These services are offered to our customers on both a prepaid and postpaid basis. We also provide prepaid domestic and long-distance services through our prepaid VoIP network platform. Customers access this platform and complete the call by using their local phone number as a “PIN” or personal identification number.

Network Services: We provide private communication links and VoIP gateway services to multi-national and Latin American carriers and enterprise customers who require a high volume of telecommunications services to communicate with their U.S. offices or businesses and need greater dependability than is currently available through the foreign telecommunication networks. These services include data, voice and fax transmission between multiple international offices and branches as well as Internet and co-location services in the United States.

Three Months ended April 30, 2007 Compared to Three Months ended April 30, 2006

Operating Revenues. Consolidated operating revenues increased 99% from $4,091,000 for the quarter ended April 30, 2006 to $8,140,000 for the quarter ended April 30, 2007.

  Carrier services revenue increased $4,062,000, or 100% from the quarter ended April 30, 2006 to the quarter ended April 30, 2007. Our carrier traffic increased 70 % from approximately 65,875,150 minutes of voice traffic in the third quarter of fiscal 2006 to approximately 111,878,669 minutes of voice traffic in the quarter ended April 30, 2007. The increase in revenue and carrier traffic can mainly be attributed to an increase in customers over the last twelve months. The increase in total customers is as a result of the Company’s ability to offer high quality and dependable VoIP services to multiple countries in the world.

Communication services revenue decreased approximately 31% or $12,000 from the quarter ended April 30, 2006 to the quarter ended April 30, 2007. The decrease in communication services revenue is primarily due to a decrease in retail customers from 162 during the quarter ended April 30, 2006 to 115 during the quarter ended April 30, 2007.

Network services revenue decreased approximately $1,000 from the quarter ended April 30, 2006 to the quarter ended April 30, 2007.
 
Cost of Services (Exclusive of depreciation and amortization). The consolidated cost of services increased by $3,748,000 or 96% from the quarter ended April 30, 2006 to the quarter ended April 30, 2007. The increase in cost of services is a direct result of the increase in carrier services revenue. As mentioned above, our carrier traffic increased from approximately 65,875,150 minutes of voice traffic in the third quarter of fiscal 2006 to approximately 111,878,669 minutes of voice traffic in the quarter ended April 30, 2007, thus increasing our cost of services between quarters. Consolidated cost of services, as a percentage of revenue decreased from 95% during the quarter ended April 30, 2006 to 94% during the quarter ended April 30, 2007. Additionally, as a result of the increase in total revenue our gross profits increased from $192,000 during the quarter ended April 30, 2006 to $492,000 during the quarter ended April 30, 2007.

Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A) Expenses (exclusive of legal and professional fees). SG&A expenses increased $108,000, or 52% from the quarter ended April 30, 2006 to the quarter ended April 30, 2007. The increase is primarily attributable to an increase in salaries of $64,000 as a result of the hiring of two new employees, bonuses paid to officers and accounts receivable factoring fees of approximately $14,000 incurred during the quarter ended April 30, 2007. Additionally, non-cash compensation expense to employees increased by $52,000 from the quarter ended April 30, 2006, to the quarter ended April 30, 2007. The increase is attributed to the recognition during the quarter ended April 30, 2007 of approximately $52,000 of non-cash compensation expense associated with the stock options issued to employees and directors. We did not incur this type of expense during the quarter ended April 30, 2006.

13

 
Legal and professional fees. Legal and professional fees increased $12,000, or 17% from the quarter ended April 30, 2006, to the quarter ended April 30, 2007. The increase is attributable to $17,000 in legal fees incurred as a result of the ongoing litigation involving the holders of the Redeemable Preferred Series D shares. We did not incur these types of expenses during the quarter ended April 30, 2006.
   
Bad debt expense. Bad debt expense increased by $29,000 from the quarter ended April 30, 2006 to the quarter ended April 30, 2007. During the quarter ended April 30, 2007 we recognized $29,000 in bad debt expense for certain accounts receivable we deemed we were unlikely to collect. We did not recognize any bad debt expense during the third quarter of fiscal 2006.

Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization decreased by $1,000 or 4% from the quarter ended April 30, 2006 to the quarter ended April 30, 2007. The decrease is attributed to the full amortization during fiscal 2006 of the initial installation and maintenance of the Nextone Soft-switch.

Operating income (loss). The Company’s operating loss decreased by $151,000 or 135% from the quarter ended April 30, 2006 to the quarter ended April 30, 2007. The decrease in operating loss is attributed to the increase between quarters in gross profit margin of approximately $300,000. The increase in gross profit margin was offset by the increase of approximately $108,000 in selling, general and administrative expenses due to an increase in salaries of $64,000 and an increase of $12,000 in legal and professional fees and an increase in bad debt expense of approximately $29,000.

Gain (loss) on derivative instruments liabilities, net. The Company recognized a loss on derivative instruments of $88,000 during the quarter ended April 30, 2006. No gain or loss was recognized during the quarter ended April 30, 2007, as we had no derivative liabilities during 2007.

Debt forgiveness income. Debt forgiveness income decreased by $11,000 from the quarter ended April 30, 2006 to the quarter ended April 30, 2007. The decrease is primarily due to the recognition during the quarter ended April 30, 2006 of $11,000 in debt forgiveness income associated with the settlement of debt for the issuance of common stock.
 
This transaction was related to the settlement of accrued interest associated with the conversion of 500 Redeemable Preferred Series A shares into common stock. The debt forgiveness expense was recognized based on the difference between the accrued interest and principal balance on the Note Payable and the market price of ATSI stock issued as part of the conversion.
 
Interest expense. Interest expense increased by $231,000 from the quarter ended April 30, 2006 to the quarter ended April 30, 2007. The increase can be attributed to the beneficial conversion feature of $143,723 recognized with conversion of the $564,600 notes payable plus accrued interest of $10,292 and to the amortization of approximately $93,000 in deferred financing fees as part of the private placement common stock financing.

Income (loss) from continuing operations. Net loss from continuing operations increased by $175,000. The increase in loss from continuing operations is attributed to the increase of approximately $151,000 in operating income as a result of increased sales offset by a decrease of approximately $326,000 of other income and expense items consisting primarily of increased interest expense related to our financing activities.

Preferred stock dividends. Preferred stock dividends decreased by $16,000 or 70% between periods, from $23,000 for the quarter ended April 30, 2006 to $7,000 during the quarter ended April 30, 2007. The decrease in preferred dividends during the quarter ended April 30, 2007 is mainly attributed to a decrease in dividends resulting from the conversion of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and Series H Convertible Preferred Stock.

Reversal of previously recorded preferred stock dividends. During the quarter ended April 30, 2007, we recognized a reversal of previously recorded dividend expense of $600,000. This reversal occurred as result of the conversion into common stock of 9,063,260 shares of Series H Convertible Preferred Stock. At the time of conversion of these securities, the market price of ATSI’s stock was higher than at the time of issuance of the securities. As a result, a reversal of preferred dividends was recognized during the period.
 
14

Net income (loss) applicable to common stockholders. Net income applicable to common stockholders increased by $441,000. The increase in net income applicable to common stockholders is attributed to the increase between quarters in gross profit margin of approximately $300,000 and a reversal of previously recorded preferred stock divided of approximately $604,000. The increase in gross profit margin and decrease in dividend expense were offset by the increase of approximately $108,000 in selling, general and administrative expenses due to an increase of $64,000 in salaries. Additionally, non-cash compensation expense to employees increased by $52,000 from the quarter ended April 30, 2006 to the quarter ended April 30, 2007 and an increase in interest expense of $143,723 is attributed to the beneficial conversion feature recognized with conversion of the $564,600 notes payable plus accrued interest of $10,292 as part of the private placement financing. Additionally, bad debt expense increased by $29,000 from the quarter ended April 30, 2006 to the quarter ended April 30, 2007.

Nine Months ended April 30, 2007 Compared to Nine Months ended April 30, 2006

Operating Revenues. Consolidated operating revenues increased 132% between periods from $9,361,000 for the nine months ended April 30, 2006 to $21,745,000 for the nine months ended April 30, 2007.

  Carrier services revenues increased $12,392,000, or 134% from the nine months ended April 30, 2006, to the nine months ended April 30, 2007. Our carrier traffic increased 75% from approximately 180,704,747 minutes of voice traffic in the nine months ended April 30, 2006 to approximately 316,435,399 minutes of voice traffic in the nine months ended April 30, 2007. The increase in revenue and carrier traffic can mainly be attributed to an increase in customers over the last twelve months. The increase in total customers is as a result of the Company’s ability to offer high quality and dependable VoIP services to multiple countries in the world.
 
Communication services revenue decreased approximately 4% or $4,000 from the nine months ended April 30, 2006 to the nine months ended April 30, 2007. The decrease in communication services revenue is primarily due to a decrease in total customers from 162 customers during the nine months ended April 30, 2006 to 115 customers during the nine months ended April 30, 2007.

  Network services revenues decreased approximately 24% or $4,000 from the nine months ended April 30, 2006 to the nine months ended April 30, 2007. The decrease in network services revenue is primarily due to the decrease in network services customers.
 
Cost of Services. (Exclusive of depreciation and amortization) The consolidated cost of services increased by $11,267,000, or 126% from the nine months ended April 30, 2006, to the nine months ended April 30, 2007. The increase in cost of services is a direct result of the increase in carrier services revenue. As mentioned above, our carrier traffic increased 75% from approximately 180,704,747 minutes of voice traffic in the nine months ended April 30, 2006 to approximately 316,435,399 minutes of voice traffic in the nine months ended April 30, 2007, thus increasing our cost of services between periods. Consolidated cost of services as a percentage of sales decreased from 95% in the nine months of fiscal 2006 to 93% in the nine months of fiscal 2007. Additionally, as a result of the increase in total revenue our gross profits increased from $453,000 during the nine months ended April 30, 2006 to $1,570,000 during the nine months ended April 30, 2007.

Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A) Expenses (exclusive of legal and professional fees, non-cash stock compensation to employees and common stock and warrants for services). SG&A expenses increased $443,000, or 54% from the nine months ended April 30, 2006 to the nine months ended April 30, 2007. The increase is primarily attributable to an increase in salaries and wages of approximately $189,000 as a result of the hiring of two new employees, bonuses paid to officers, and accounts receivable factoring fees of approximately $26,000 during the nine months ended April 30, 2007. Furthermore, non-cash issuance of common stock and warrants for services decreased by $48,000 from the nine months ended April 30, 2006 to the nine months ended April 30, 2007. The decrease is primarily due to recognition during the nine months ended April 30, 2006, of approximately $48,000 in non-cash compensation expense associated with consulting agreements entered into with certain individuals and legal services paid in common stock during the period. We did not incur these types of expenses during the nine months ended April 30, 2007. Non-cash compensation expense to employees increased by $242,125 from the nine months ended April 30, 2006 to the nine months ended April 30, 2007. The increase is attributed to the recognition during the nine months ended April 30, 2007 of approximately $422,125 of non-cash compensation expense associated with stock options issued to employees and directors. We did not incur this type of expense during the nine months ended April 30, 2006.
 
15

 
Legal and Professional Fees. Legal and professional fees increased $46,000, or 30% from the nine months ended April 30, 2006 to the nine months ended April 30, 2007. The increase is attributable to the recognition of approximately $7,500 associated with the preparation of the closing documents for the new accounts receivable factoring agreement. Also, during the nine months ended April 30, 2007 we recognized approximately $31,000 in professional fees associated with the evaluation of derivative instruments and restructuring of debt. We did not incur these types of expenses during the nine months ended April 30, 2006.

Bad debt expense. Bad debt expense increased by $76,000 from the nine months ended April 30, 2006 to the nine months ended April 30, 2007. During the nine months ended April 30, 2007 we recognized $76,000 in bad debt expense for certain accounts receivable we deemed we were unlikely to collect. We did not recognize any bad debt expense during the nine months ended April 30, 2006.

Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization decreased by $10,000 or 14% from the nine months ended April 30, 2006 to the nine months ended April 30, 2007. The decrease is attributed to the full amortization during the fiscal 2006 of the installation and maintenance agreement associated with the Nextone Soft-switch.

Operating Loss. The Company’s operating loss decreased by $562,000 or 94% from the nine months ended April 30, 2006 to the nine months ended April 30, 2007. The reduction in operating loss between periods is attributed to the increase in gross profit margin of $1,117,000. The increase in gross profit margin was offset by the increase of approximately $443,000 in selling, general and administrative expenses due to an increase in salaries and wages of approximately $189,000 as a result of the hiring of two new employees, bonuses paid to officers, accounts receivable factoring fees of approximately $26,000 during the nine months ended April 30, 2007, and the increase in non-cash compensation expense to employees by approximately $242,125 from the nine months ended April 30, 2006 to the nine months ended April 30, 2007. Additionally, the increase in bad debt of approximately $76,000 from the nine months ended April 30, 2006 to the nine months ended April 30, 2007.

Gain (loss) on derivative instruments liabilities, net. The Company recognized a loss on derivative instruments of $8,000 during the nine months ended April 30, 2006. No gain or loss was recognized during the nine months ended April 30, 2007, as we had no derivative liabilities during 2007.

Debt forgiveness income. Debt forgiveness income decreased by $50,000 from the nine months ended April 30, 2006 to the nine months ended April 30, 2007. The decrease is primarily due to the recognition during the nine months ended April 30, 2006 of $50,000 in debt forgiveness income associated with the settlement of debt for the issuance of common stock. This transaction was related to the settlement of $49,000 in debt with a consultant. This debt was incurred during fiscal 2000 and associated with the commissions incurred as part of the acquisition of the concession license in Mexico. The debt forgiveness income was based on the difference between the market price of ATSI’s equity at the time of issuance and the market price calculated at the time of the settlement of the debt.
 
Interest expense. Interest expense increased by $245,000 from the nine months ended April 30, 2006 to the nine months ended April 30, 2007. The increase can be attributed to the beneficial conversion feature of $143,723 recognized with conversion of the $564,600 in notes payable plus accrued interest of $10,292 and to the amortization of approximately $93,000 of deferred financing fees as part of the private placement financing.
 
16


Income (loss) from continuing operations. Net loss from continuing operations decreased by $279,000. The decrease in operating loss is attributed to the increase of $562,000 in operating income as a result of increased sales offset by a decrease of approximately $283,000 of other income and expense items consisting primarily of increased interest expense related to our financing activities.

Net income from discontinued operations. During the nine months ended April 30, 2006 we recognized a gain on disposal of discontinued operations of $1,652,000. No gain on disposal of discontinued operation was recognized during the nine months ended April 30, 2007. The gain on disposal of discontinued operations arose from the sale of ATSI’s ownership in ATSIMex Personal S.A de C.V. Under the share purchase agreement the buyer acquired the total ownership and assumed all related liabilities on this entity of $1,652,000 and as a result we recognized a gain of $1,652,000.

Preferred stock dividends. Preferred stock dividends decreased by $37,000 or 45% between periods, from $82,000 for the nine months ended April 30, 2006 to $45,000 during the nine months ended April 30, 2007. The decrease in preferred dividends between periods is mainly attributed to a decrease in dividends resulting from the conversion of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and Series H Convertible Preferred Stock.

Reversal of previously recorded preferred stock dividends. During the nine months ended April 30, 2007 we recognized a reversal of previously recorded dividend expense of $828,000, this reversal occurred as result of the conversion into common stock of 2,750 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and 11,802,420 shares of Series H Convertible Preferred Stock. At the time of conversion of these securities the market price of ATSI’s stock was higher than at the time of issuance of the securities. As a result, a reversal of preferred dividends was recognized during the period.

Net income (loss) applicable to common stockholders. Net income applicable to common stockholders decreased by $508,000. The decrease in net income applicable to common stockholders is attributed to the decrease in gain on disposal of discontinued operations of approximately $1,652,000 recognized during the prior period, the increase of approximately $46,000 in legal and professional fees and an increase of approximately $443,000 in selling, general and administrative expenses, the increase in interest expense of approximately $245,000 during the nine months ended April 30, 2007. These increases were offset between periods by the increase in gross profit margin of approximately $1,117,000.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Position: We had a cash balance of $597,000 as of April 30, 2007. Net cash provided by operating activities during the nine months ended April 30, 2007, was approximately $117,000, attributable to improved operating results from an increase in gross margins offset by working capital changes.

Investing activities during the nine months ended April 30, 2007, consumed $403,000. We used $101,000 to upgrade our Nextone Soft-switch and other equipment necessary to handle the increase in minutes of voice traffic transported in our network and sustain higher revenues. Additionally, we used $302,000 to acquire two certificates of deposit necessary to secure certain obligations of the Company.

Financing activities during the nine months ended April 30, 2007, generated $847,000 in cash. This cash was primarily generated from proceeds of our private placement of $713,000, proceeds from a notes payable of $350,000, cash proceeds of $35,000 from the exercise of 150,000 warrants and cash proceeds of $16,000 from the exercise of 100,000 stock options. These cash proceeds were offset by debt principal payments of $106,000 associated with two related party notes payable; the principal payments of $78,000 associated with various notes payable, the principal payments of $148,000 associated with advances from shareholders and principal payments of $2,000 associated with our capital leases. Overall, our net operating, investing and financing activities during the nine months ended April 30, 2007 provided an increase of $561,000 in cash.
 
17


Our current cash expenses are expected to be approximately $90,000 per month, including wages, rent, utilities, litigation fees and corporate professional fees. We are currently generating sufficient cash from operations to cover all monthly cash expenses, but we cannot predict if, over the next twelve months, we will continue to generate sufficient cash from operations to cover all of our cash expenses. We intend to cover our initial monthly cash expenses with our available cash from operations and proceeds received from the sale of our common stock. We expect to continue conserving cash resources by paying executive compensation, fees for certain consultants and professional services with shares of our common stock. Additionally, on November 3, 2006, we entered into a factoring agreement with CCA Financial Services, Inc. Under the agreement, CCA Financial Services committed to purchase up to $1,000,000 of ATSI’s monthly receivables. As our ongoing operations require, we will factor our receivables under this new agreement. As of the date of this filing, we did not have any outstanding factored receivables under this agreement. Furthermore, we will continue to pursue additional debt and equity financings to fund continued growth and increase our cash reserves. However, we presently do not have a definitive agreement in place to obtain such financing. Any additional debt or equity financing may not be available in sufficient amounts or on acceptable terms. If such financing is not available in sufficient amounts or on acceptable terms, the Company's operational results and financial condition may be adversely affected.

We are not presently paying quarterly interest and dividends on our outstanding convertible debentures and preferred stock. However, we have continued to accrue dividends and interest on such debentures. The increase in accrued liabilities related to the dividends and interest in arrears contributed approximately $78,000 in cash flow savings during the nine months ended April 30, 2007.
 
Our working capital deficit was $531,000 as of the nine months ended April 30, 2007. This represents an improvement of approximately $2,270,000 from our working capital deficit at July 31, 2006. The improvement can primarily be attributed to the elimination of $1,773,680 of accrued dividends due to the conversion into common stock of 11,802,420 shares of Series H Convertible Preferred Stock and accrued dividends. Additionally, during the nine months ended April 30, 2007, we reclassified a note payable of $500,000 from long-term liabilities to current liabilities. This note is due in October 2007.

Ongoing operations

We generated sufficient income from operations to cover our operating expenses during the nine months ended April 30, 2007. However, we believe that based on our limited access to capital resources and our current cash balances, financial resources may not be available to support our ongoing operations for the next twelve months. These matters raise doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the ongoing support of our stockholders and customers, our ability to continue generating sufficient income from operations to cover our operating expense and our ability to obtain capital resources to support expansion.

During the nine months ended April 30, 2007, we received $713,000 from the private placement common stock financing, $35,000 from the exercise of warrants and $16,000 from the exercise of stock options. These funds, along with funds generated from operations, allowed us to cover our operating expenses and other corporate expenses during the nine months ended April 30, 2007. Additionally, on November 3, 2006, we entered into a factoring agreement with CCA Financial Services, Inc. Under the agreement, CCA Financial Services committed to purchase up to $1,000,000 of our monthly receivables. As our ongoing operations require, we will factor our receivables under this new agreement. As of date of this filing, we did not have any outstanding factored receivables under this agreement.

We will continue to pursue cost cutting strategies in order to conserve working capital. These strategies will limit the implementation of our business plan and increase our future liabilities. We are dependent on our operations and the proceeds from future debt or equity investments to fully implement our business plan. If we are unable to continue producing positive cash flow from operations or raise sufficient capital, we will be required to delay or forego some portion of our business plan, which will have a material adverse effect on our anticipated results from operations and our financial condition. Alternatively, we may seek interim financing in the form of private placement of debt or equity securities. Such interim financing may not be available in the amounts or at the time when it is required.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

On October 31, 2002, we filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Southern District Court of New York against several individuals and financial institutions, including the holders of our Series D and E Redeemable Preferred Stock, for, among other things, stock fraud and manipulation. On July 9, 2004, we filed a separate but related lawsuit in the same court against Sam Levinson and Uri Wolfson. On February 25, 2005, Judge Lewis A. Kaplan issued a memorandum opinion and order dismissing the complaint in the first action as to all defendants with prejudice. A judgment was entered in that action on September 8, 2005. We appealed that judgment on September 20, 2005 to the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. On April 27, 2005, the court entered a final judgment dismissing the second action with prejudice based on the February 25, 2005 decision in the first action. On May 25, 2005, we appealed the dismissal of the second action to the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. The defendants' briefs were filed in both appeals on March 29, 2006, and our reply briefs were filed on May 12, 2006. Our attorneys presented their argument for the appeal on November 29, 2006. Currently we cannot predict the outcome of this litigation or the financial impact on our ongoing operations.
 
In April 13, 2006, ATSI filed suit in a state District Court in Bexar County, Texas and obtained injunctive relief against former ATSI consultant Diane Huth and her associate, John Highland. The lawsuit involves a dispute relating to who has prior claim and rightful ownership of the trade name "Telefamilia," which Defendants were alleged in the lawsuit to have undertaken to trademark for their own purposes. Defendants had filed an answer denying any liability. Within the last 30 days a settlement has been consummated in which ATSI obtained undisputed ownership and claim to such name from Defendants, including an assignment of the trademark "Telefamilia" to ATSI, which Defendants had previously obtained from the US. Patent and Trademark Office.  This lawsuit has been dismissed.   

In December 2006, ATSI filed suit in Bexar County District Court to recover approximately $63,000 (plus attorneys fees, legal interest, and court costs) against a company that called itself Lightspeed Telecom, Inc. and its principals or alter egos.  The suit is for telecommunications services provided to Lightspeed at the instance of Defendants; ATSI asserts such services were obtained by or at the direction of Defendants without intent to pay, which the individual Defendants deny.   Currently, the Company is in the discovery process and a deposition has been set for David R. Dragon and Mr. Michael Freidman, two of Lighspeed’s principals also being sued in their individual capacities.  As of the date of this filing no trial date has been set.

RGC International Investors, LDC ("RGC") filed a lawsuit in the Chancery Court in Delaware against ATSI on March 20, 2007 asserting it still has rights of enforcement against ATSI to convert preferred stock to common stock or redeem such stock in connection with Certificate of Designation issued regarding such series D preferred stock in October of 2000.  ATSI asserts, among other things, that RGC is barred from such relief based on the applicable statute of limitations.  The parties are currently exploring settlement as an alternative to actively litigating the issues in the case.
