PRESS RELEASE

deltathree Reports Second Quarter 2011 Financial Results

New York, NY – August 4, 2011 – deltathree, Inc. (OTCQB: DDDC), a global provider of video and voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) telephony services, products, hosted solutions and infrastructures for service providers, resellers and direct consumers, today announced financial results for the second quarter 2011 ended June 30, 2011.

Mr. Effi Baruch, Chief Executive Officer, President and Senior Vice President of Operations and Technology of deltathree, stated, “While deltathree continues to make good progress with the rollout of our international mobile VoIP offerings, with better than expected customer ramps and usage, our second quarter financial results were negatively impacted by a material drop in activity from our VoIP reseller customers based in the Middle East, caused in large part by the recent geopolitical uncertainty in the region.  If we exclude the contribution from reseller client activity in the Middle East from the results of this quarter and the corresponding period in 2010, deltathree saw year-over-year revenue growth across its core VoIP service offerings, with particular strength in our Mobile offering with ACN under the ACN Mobile World brand as well as other international service provider customers.”

“In light of this decline in reseller activity, deltathree has implemented a new streamlining initiative aimed at securing additional cost efficiency measures across all areas of the company’s operations.  Our goal is to reduce the company’s cost base and accelerate the path to near-term profitability.  The actions we’ve taken include a material reduction in headcount, along with other targeted steps, which were implemented late in the second quarter. We believe the company will benefit from these actions beginning in the second half of 2011.”

“During the quarter we continued to secure additional international service provider agreements, including an agreement with ACN Europe for deltathree's mobile phone application through which ACN Europe will promote deltathree's joip Mobile phone application under the ACN Mobile World brand through tens of thousands of ACN Europe's independent sales representatives.  ACN Mobile World is a cellular smartphone application that provides low cost mobile calls over GSM, CDMA as well as WiFi networks.  This agreement marks our first major launch in Europe, and highlights our ever-expanding reach and capabilities. The multi-language and multi-currency ACN Mobile World service was initially deployed in the United Kingdom, Ireland, Norway, Sweden, Switzerland, Denmark, France, Spain and Italy, and we have just successfully launched service in Germany, Austria, Belgium, Netherlands, Czech Republic and Hungary.  With the increasing number of long distance international calls, and high cost roaming charges becoming common for cellular customers worldwide, our European launch provides an excellent opportunity for consumers there to save considerably on their mobile phone bills,” concluded Mr. Baruch.

For the second quarter of 2011, deltathree reported total revenues of $2.2 million, as compared to $3.4 million reported for the second quarter of 2010. deltathree’s revenue declined primarily due to lower reseller revenues concentrated in the Middle East, caused in large part by deltathree’s largest reseller suspending its operations.

Second quarter 2011 GAAP net loss totaled $1.6 million, or ($0.02) per diluted share, compared to a GAAP net loss for the second quarter of 2010 of $813,000, or $(0.01) per diluted share. Second quarter 2011 net loss included a $300,000 increase in operating expense related to an accrual for commercial rent tax as well as approximately $75,000 in restructuring expenses, which were not reflected in the year-ago period.

Second quarter 2011 non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA loss (as defined below) was $859,000, or $(0.01) per diluted share, compared to a non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA loss of $543,000, or $(0.01) per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2010.

deltathree defines adjusted EBITDA as earnings before stock-based compensation, interest, income taxes, restructuring costs, accrual for commercial rent tax, depreciation and amortization. deltathree uses adjusted EBITDA as a measure of the company’s operating trends.  The adjusted EBITDA numbers presented may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Consistent with Regulation G under the U.S. federal securities laws, the non-GAAP measures in this press release have been reconciled to the nearest GAAP measure, and this reconciliation is located under the heading "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Information to GAAP" following the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows included in this press release.

As of June 30, 2011, deltathree held approximately $325,000 in cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and short-term investments, and had negative working capital equal to approximately $3.7 million and negative stockholders’ equity equal to approximately $3.4 million.

While deltathree’s cost-reduction activities are expected to yield measurable improvements, the company is continuing to draw upon its cash reserves on a monthly basis. The company is continuing to explore potential capital initiatives aimed at further strengthening its balance sheet and remedying its negative working capital.

Adjusted EBITDA Financial Disclosure
Investors are cautioned that adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of liquidity or financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). In addition, it should not be construed as an alternative to any other measures of performance determined in accordance with GAAP, or as an indicator of the company’s operating performance, liquidity or cash flows generated by operating, investing and financing activities, as there may be significant factors or trends that it fails to address. Adjusted EBITDA financial information is presented because deltathree believes that it is helpful to some investors as one measure of the company’s operations. deltathree cautions investors that non-GAAP financial information such as adjusted EBITDA, by its nature, departs from traditional accounting conventions; accordingly, its use can make it difficult to compare deltathree’s results with the results from other reporting periods and with the results of other companies.
