1.              Description of Business

New Horizons Worldwide, Inc. (“New Horizons” or the “Company”) franchises and owns computer-training centers. The Company has two reporting units: franchising operations and Company-owned training centers, both of which operate principally within the information technology (“IT”) training industry.  The franchising operations reporting unit earns revenue through the sale of New Horizons master and unit franchises within the continental United States and internationally, on-going royalties received in return for providing franchises with systems of instruction, sales and management concepts concerning computer training and the sale of courseware materials and e-learning products.  The Company-owned training centers reporting unit generates revenue through the sale and delivery of training for personal computing (“PC”) applications, technical software, business skills and healthcare information management.

2.             Basis of Presentation

Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements

The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial reporting. These interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited and, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments and accruals) necessary to present fairly the consolidated balance sheets, consolidated operating results, and consolidated cash flows for the periods presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2008 or for any other interim period during such year. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been omitted in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC. These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007 (the “2007 Form 10-K”). Amounts related to disclosure of December 31, 2007 balances within these interim consolidated financial statements were derived from the audited 2007 consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the 2007 Form 10-K, which was filed with the SEC on March 28, 2008.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates and such differences could be material to the consolidated financial statements. The Company believes its estimates related to revenue recognition and deferral, allowance for doubtful accounts and valuation of deferred tax assets to be the most sensitive estimates impacting financial position and results of operations.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

3.              Stock-Based Compensation

Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payments” (“SFAS 123R”), using the modified prospective application transition method. The modified prospective application transition method requires compensation cost to be recognized beginning on the effective date (a) based on the requirements of SFAS 123R for all share-based payments granted after the effective date and (b) based on the requirements of SFAS 123R for all awards granted to employees prior to the effective date of SFAS 123R that remain unvested on the effective date. All Company option awards granted prior to January 1, 2006 are fully vested.

Table of Contents

In calculating the compensation expense related to stock options, the weighted average fair value of each employee option grant was estimated on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions used for grants during the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007:

The compensation expense related to the restricted common stock was calculated based on the market price of the Company’s common stock on the grant date of the restricted shares.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, the Company recognized approximately $84 and $148, respectively, of share-based compensation expense. This compensation expense consisted of $77 for vested stock options and $7 for unvested restricted common stock for the three months ended June 30, 2008. For the six months ended June 30, 2008, compensation expense consisted of $134 for vested stock options and $14 for unvested restricted common stock. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, the Company recognized approximately $30 and $41, respectively, of share-based compensation expense for vested stock options. Unrecognized compensation expense for stock options and restricted common stock granted was as follows:

During the six months ended June 30, 2008, no stock options were exercised.

The Company has a net operating loss carry-forward as of June 30, 2008, and no tax benefit is generated from the stock-based awards and therefore no tax deduction is recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007. Additionally, no incremental tax benefits were recognized from stock options exercised in 2007 that would have resulted in a reclassification to reduce net cash provided by operating activities with an offsetting increase in net cash provided by financing activities.

The Company provides for the grant of stock options and the award of restricted common stock to key employees and non-employee directors under its 2007 Omnibus Equity Plan.  The Company will not grant any further stock options under its 1997 Omnibus Equity Plan as the period to grant stock options under this plan expired on March 20, 2008.  A summary of award activity is described in further detail below.

Restricted Stock Awards

A summary of restricted stock award activity as of June 30, 2008 and changes during the six months then ended is presented as follows:

On August 24, 2007, the Company granted a total of 340,000 shares of restricted common stock to its CEO and three of its senior management employees. Under the terms of these Restricted Stock Agreements, since the Company exceeded an Adjusted EBITDA (as defined in the Restricted Stock Agreements) of $3,357 for the consecutive twelve month period ending December 31, 2007, 170,000 shares of the restricted shares vested. If the Company reaches its performance target of $7,565 in Adjusted EBITDA for the consecutive twelve month period ending December 31, 2008, an additional 170,000 shares of the restricted shares will vest. Unvested shares will be held by the Company in escrow and the individuals will be entitled to vote and receive dividends on such escrowed shares.

As of June 30, 2008, 170,000 of these restricted shares had vested.  The Company recognized $262 of compensation expense in the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2007.  As of the six months ended June 30, 2008, no compensation expense for the remaining 170,000 restricted shares outstanding has been recognized.

In July 2006, the Company granted 350,000 shares of restricted common stock to its CEO.  Under the terms of this Restricted Stock Agreement, if the Company reaches an Adjusted EBITDA (as defined in this Restricted Stock Agreement) of (i) $5,000 in any consecutive twelve month period ending on or before June 30, 2009, or (ii) $1,250 during the three months ending June 30, 2009, 175,000 of the restricted shares will vest. If the Company reaches its performance target of $7,000 in Adjusted EBITDA during any consecutive twelve month period ending on or before June 30, 2011, an additional 175,000 shares of the Restricted Shares will vest. Unvested shares will be held by the Company in escrow, and the CEO will be entitled to vote and receive dividends on such escrowed shares.

As of June 30, 2008, 175,000 shares of the restricted stock had vested.  The Company recognized $140 of compensation expense in the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2007 related to the vesting shares.  As of the six months ended June 30, 2008, the Company recognized $14 of compensation expense for the remaining 175,000 restricted shares outstanding.

4.             Business Segment Information

In accordance with SFAS 131, “ Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information” , the Company’s business units have been segregated into two reportable segments, franchising and Company-owned locations.  The two segments are managed separately due to differences in their sources of revenues and services offered.  The franchising segment earns revenue through the sale of New Horizons master and unit franchises within the continental United States and internationally, on-going royalties received in return for providing franchises with systems of instruction, sales and management concepts concerning computer training and the sale of courseware materials and e-learning products.  At June 30, 2008, the Company-owned locations segment operates wholly-owned computer training centers in two metropolitan areas (three metropolitan areas at June 30, 2007) within the continental United States and generates revenue through the sale and delivery of training for PC applications and technical software training courses and business skills courses.

Summarized financial information concerning the Company’s reportable segments is shown in the following tables:

5.             Earnings Per Share

Earnings per share is computed in accordance with SFAS No. 128, “Earnings per Share.” Basic earnings per common share (“Basic EPS”) is computed by dividing net income attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares

Table of Contents

outstanding during the period. Shares issued and shares reacquired during the period are weighted for the portion of the period they were outstanding.

Diluted earnings per common share (“Diluted EPS”) is computed similarly to Basic EPS except that the weighted average number of shares outstanding is increased to include the number of additional shares of common stock that would have been outstanding if potentially dilutive shares had been issued. The Company’s potentially dilutive common shares consist of shares issuable upon the conversion of the Company’s convertible preferred stock, the exercise of unexercised stock options and warrants, and the achievement of targets related to vesting of restricted stock.

The following data show the amounts used in computing the income per share and the effect on income and the weighted average number of shares of common stock for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007:

The computation of Diluted EPS does not assume conversion, exercise or contingent issuance of securities that may have an anti-dilutive effect on earnings per share. Convertible preferred stock, stock options, warrants and restricted stock that have not been included in the diluted income per share computation totaled 634,666 and 1,442,666 shares of common stock for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, respectively.  Convertible preferred stock, stock options, warrants and restricted stock that have not been included in the diluted income per share computation totaled 3,648,193 and 3,707,326 shares of common stock for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively.

6.             Debt

On July 3, 2007, the Company entered into Amendment No. 1 to its existing Credit Agreement (the “Credit Amendment”). The Credit Amendment has revised definitions for certain terms, amends and restates certain sections, and required the Company to file preliminary proxy materials concerning a meeting of the Company’s shareholders with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which materials were filed on October 5, 2007 and which meeting was held on November 6, 2007.

11

Table of Contents

The Credit Amendment provides for a $4,000 term loan, comprised of a single advance from each of the lenders party thereto, which matures on July 19, 2009. Under the terms of the Credit Amendment, interest is paid quarterly, at the annual rate of 10% per year. In the event that any payment is not made when due, all outstanding obligations under the Credit Amendment will accrue interest at the default rate equal to 12% per year. Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts will compound monthly. The indebtedness may be required to be prepaid in the event of certain receipts by the Company. No prepayment shall be required upon the disposition of any location owned by the Company. All or any portion of the outstanding principal may be prepaid in whole or in part subject to restrictions.

7.             Other Current Liabilities

Other current liabilities consist of:

8.             Provision for Income Taxes

In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Interpretation No. 48 “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an interpretation of FASB Statement 109” (“FIN 48”).  FIN 48 establishes a single model to address accounting for uncertain tax positions. FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for income taxes by prescribing a minimum recognition threshold a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements.  FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, measurement, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.

Utilization of the net operating losses (“NOL”) carryforwards may be subject to a substantial annual limitation due to ownership change limitations that may have occurred or that could occur in the future, as required by Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and similar state and foreign provisions. These ownership changes may limit the amount of NOL carryforwards that can be utilized annually to offset future taxable income and tax, respectively. In general, an “ownership change” as defined by Section 382 of the Code results from a transaction or series of transactions over a three-year period resulting in an ownership change of more than 50 percentage points of the market value of a company by certain stockholders or public groups. Since the Company’s formation, the Company has raised capital through the issuance of preferred stock on several occasions which has resulted in such an ownership change.

Consequently, the Company’s utilization of the NOL carryforwards are subject to an annual limitation under Section 382 of the Code, which is determined by first multiplying the value of the Company’s stock at the time of the ownership change by the applicable long-term, tax-exempt rate, and then could be subject to additional adjustments, as required.  Due to the existence of the valuation allowance, future changes in the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits will not impact its effective tax rate.  Any carryforwards that will expire prior to utilization as a result of such limitations will be removed from deferred tax assets with a corresponding reduction of the valuation allowance.

The Company adopted the provisions of FIN 48 on January 1, 2007.  Upon adoption, the Company recognized no adjustment in the amount of unrecognized tax benefits.  As of the date of adoption, the Company had no increase to the liability for unrecognized tax benefits. The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties that would be assessed in relation to the settlement value of unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense.

The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as income tax in multiple state and foreign jurisdictions.  With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax examinations for years before 2004; state and local income tax examinations before 2003; and foreign income tax examinations before 2002.  However, to the extent allowed by law, the tax authorities may have the right to examine prior periods where net operating losses were generated and carried forward, and make adjustments up to the amount of the net operating loss carry-forward amount.

The Company is not currently under Internal Revenue Service, state, local or foreign jurisdiction tax examinations.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, the Company recorded a provision for income taxes of $261 and $320, respectively, on pre-tax income of $1,383 and $2,802, respectively.  The tax provision is primarily comprised of taxes on state and foreign income and capital taxes, and is net of a $106 refund of prior year’s foreign source withholding taxes received in the first quarter of 2008.

9.             Shareholders’ Equity

There were no changes in our capital structure (preferred stock or common stock) during the three or six months ended June 30, 2008.

On July 2, 2007, the Company completed a sale of Series C preferred stock and warrants to private investors, further discussion  is contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007, which was filed with the SEC on March 28, 2008.

Dividends

The Company has not declared or paid any cash dividends on its common stock or on its Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock. At June 30, 2008, cumulative, undeclared and unaccrued dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock totaled $1,025 and $160, respectively.  The dividends payable totaled $171 and $130 during the three months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.  The dividends payable totaled $342 and $265 during the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

10.          Gain on Sale of Company-owned training centers

During 2007, the Company sold and re-franchised four of its Company-owned training centers in Chicago, Cleveland, Anaheim and New York pursuant to asset sale agreements under which the buyers collectively assumed net liabilities of $2,541. In addition, the buyers collectively paid $300 of franchise fees and prepaid $850 of royalties to be earned over the term of the franchise agreements. The Company determined that the sale of these centers did not meet all necessary criteria to be classified as discontinued operations within the Company’s consolidated financial statements at any time during the twelve months ended December 31, 2007. In addition, due to significant continuing involvement between the Company and these re-franchised centers, the Company deferred $1,269 of the gross gain on the sale of these centers. The deferred gain at the date of sale consisted of a discount to the buyer on royalty revenue over a defined term in each respective agreement. Subsequent to the sales, a portion of the deferred royalty revenue related to these four sales and sales made in prior years was earned and recognized totaling $979 through December 31, 2007.  The Company recognized an additional $54 and $194 of royalty revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, respectively.

11.          Legal Proceedings

The Company is involved in various legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company accounts for these contingencies in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 5, “Accounting for Contingencies,” (“SFAS No. 5”). SFAS No. 5 requires the Company to record an estimated loss contingency when information available prior to issuance of our financial statements indicates that it is probable that an asset has been impaired or a liability has been incurred at the date of the financial statements and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Accounting for contingencies arising from contractual or legal proceedings requires management to use its best judgment when estimating an accrual related to such contingencies. In the opinion of management, the ultimate disposition of these matters is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

ITEM 2.      MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial information (and notes thereto) contained in this Form 10-Q for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 and the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007.  All amounts are in US dollars and are in thousands (000’s).

General

New Horizons Worldwide, Inc. and its various wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company” or “New Horizons”) own and franchise computer training centers.

The Company has two reporting segments: franchising operations and Company-owned training centers.  The franchising operations reporting unit earns revenue through the sale of New Horizons master and unit franchises within the United States and internationally, on-going royalties in return for providing franchises with systems of instruction, sales, and management concepts concerning computer training, and the sale of courseware materials and e-learning products. As of June 30, 2008, the Company-owned training centers reporting unit operated two wholly-owned computer training centers (three at June 30, 2007) within the United States and generated revenue through the sale and delivery of training for personal computing (“PC”) applications, technical software, business skills and healthcare information management.  Both reporting units operate principally within the information technology (“IT”) training industry.

Critical Accounting Policies and Management’s Estimates

The Company prepares its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. The critical accounting policies involve accounting estimates made by management that were highly uncertain at the time of estimation, and accounting estimates in which there were a range of reasonable estimates the Company could have used in the current period.  Changes in these estimates are reasonably likely to occur from period to period. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates and judgments in these areas based on its historical experience and other relevant factors. The Company’s estimates as of the date of the financial statements reflect its best judgment giving consideration to all currently available facts and circumstances. As such, these estimates may require adjustment in the future as additional facts become known or as circumstances change. Changes in these estimates could potentially have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

Refer to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007 for a discussion of critical accounting policies which include revenue recognition and deferral, allowance for losses on accounts receivable, deferred tax assets and accounting for goodwill.  During the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, there were no material changes to these policies.

Liquidity And Capital Resources

The Company’s cash and cash equivalents was $2,237 as of June 30, 2008 compared to $4,101 as of December 31, 2007. The $1,864 decrease is due to normal operating activities.

Cash used by operations was $864 for the six months ended June 30, 2008, $331 more than the amount used in the comparable period for 2007.  The year over year decline is due primarily to a $1.7 million increase in accounts receivable compared to a $0.8 million increase in the prior year.  The increase in accounts receivable is expected to reduce over the remainder of the year as management focuses on collection of outstanding amounts.

Net cash used in investing activities was $1,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2008, $1,382 below the amount in the comparable period of 2007, principally due to the Company spending $999 on capital equipment in the first half of 2008 compared to the Company spending only $77 for the same period last year.  In addition, the Company also had a proceeds of $225 from the sale of Company-owned centers in the first half of 2007 and a $234 increase in operating cash due to the removal of restriction on cash.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Contractual Obligations

The Company’s off-balance sheet arrangements and contractual obligations consist primarily of operating leases.

The Company has $514 in restricted cash comprised of $263 required by certain state agencies to guarantee performance of obligations to provide training to consumers and $251 deposited with banks to comply with contractual obligations. In the event the Company was to abandon training in a state, the state agency could draw against the deposits to satisfy training obligations.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The results of operations for the three and six months ended June, 30, 2008 and 2007 are not directly comparable due to the sale of four Company-owned training centers in 2007. The Company determined that the sale of these centers did not meet the necessary criteria for classification as discontinued operations so the operating results of these centers until the date they were sold are included in operating income.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2008 vs. June 30, 2007.
