RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
GENERAL
LanVision is an eHealth Application Service ProviderElectronic Medical Records solution provider and a leading
supplier of Healthcare Information Access Systems software specializing in
connectivity solutions that utilize the power of the Internet/Intranet to link
hospitals, physicians, patients and payers to a robust Electronic Medical
Record. The Company's products are complementary to existing clinical and
financial systems, and use document imaging and workflow tools to ensure
end usersend-users can electronically access all the various forms of healthcare
information including clinician's handwritten notes, lab reports, photographs,
insurance cards, etc. LanVision's
eHealth solutions offer value to all of the
constituents in the healthcare delivery process by enabling them to
simultaneously access information from virtually any location, including the
physician's desktop, using Web browserthin client, web browser-based technology. Web access
to the entire medical record improves physician productivity and reduces
administrative costs such as filing, storage, retrieval and upkeep of medical
records and clinical costs, such as redundant diagnostic testing. The system
enables healthcare providers to access, on a real-time basis, all the various
forms of clinical and financial patient information from a single permanent
healthcare information repository. The Company's solutions integrate a
proprietary document imaging platform, application suites, and image and
Web-enablingweb-enabling tools, that allow for the seamless merger of "back office"
functionality with existing Clinical Information Systems at the desktop. The
Company offers a robust document imaging/management infrastructure (Foundation
Suite) that is built for high volume transaction processing and is optimized for
the healthcare industry. In addition to providing the clinician access to
information not previously available at the desktop, the Company's applications
fulfill the administrative and legal needs of the Medical Records and Patient
Financial Services departments. Furthermore, these systems have been
specifically designed to integrate with any Clinical Information System. For
example, the Company has integrated its products with selected systems from
SharedSiemens Medical SystemsSolutions Health Services Corporation and Cerner Corporation. By
offering electronic access to all the components of the Medical Record, this
integration completes one of the most difficult tasks necessary to provide a
9
true Computer Based Patient Record. The Company's systems deliver on-line
enterprisewide access to fully-updated patient information which historically
was maintained on a variety of media, including paper, magnetic disk, optical
disk, x-ray film, video, audio and microfilm.
Historically, the Company has derived its revenues from system sales involving
the licensing, either directly or through remarketing partners, of its
Electronic Medical Record solution to Integrated Healthcare Delivery Networks
("IDN")(IDN). In a typical transaction, the Company, or its remarketing partners, enter
into a term, perpetual or perpetual licensefee-for-service agreement for the Company's Electronic
Medical Record Software Suite and licensesmay license or sellssell other third party software
and hardware components to the IDN. Additionally, the Company, providesor its
remarketing partners provide professional services, including implementation,
training and product support.
With respect to systems sales, the Company earns its highest margins on
proprietary LanVision software or Application Service Provider (ASP) application
hosting services and the lowest margins on third-partythird party hardware. Systems sales
to customers may include different configurations of software and hardware,
resulting in varying margins among contracts. The margins on professional
services revenues are expected to fluctuate based upon the negotiated terms of
the agreement with each customer and the Company's ability to fully utilize its
professional services, maintenance and support services staff.

Beginning in 1998, the Company began offering customers the ability to obtain
its Electronic Medical Record solution on a service bureau/eHealthan application hosting basis as an
ApplicationASP. The Company's ASP division, called ASPeN(SM) (Application Service Provider
("ASP"). The Company's eHealth Services division,
formerly known as the Virtual Healthware Services ("VHS") division,Network), established a centralized data center and installed the
Company's Electronic Medical Record suite of software, within the data center.
Under this arrangement, customers electronically capture information and
transmit the data to the centralized data center. The eHealth ServicesASP Division stores and
manages the data using LanVision's Electronic Medical Record Suite of
Applications, and customers can view, print or fax the information from anywhere
using the LanVision Web-basedWeb browser-based applications. The eHealth Services DivisionASP division charges and
recognizes revenue for these eHealth services on a per transaction or subscription basis
as information is captured, stored, and retrieved.
In February 2000, the Company sold its centralized data center for $2,900,000.
Simultaneous therewith, the Company entered into a one-year service agreement
with the buyer. Under the terms of this service agreement, which can be renewed
at the sole option of the Company, in exchange for processing fees, the Company
will continue to use the data center to provide ASP services to LanVision's
current and future customers. The agreement has been renewed through February
2003. Although LanVision sold the data center assets, the Company continues to
market its eHealth solutions, which
includes the recently announced eHealth agreements with eSmartHealth, Inc. and
Provider HealthNet Services Inc, which are discussed below. The Company will
continue to provide its eHealth ASP services to customerssolutions through the continued
use of the data center and by usingintends to
utilize other data center service providers.
In August 2000, LanVision entered into an agreement with SmartHealth Services,
Inc. (SmartHealth), which allows SmartHealth to utilize LanVision's
MicroVision(TM) Electronic Medical Record (EMR) product combined with web-based
SmartHealth software to provide affordable, web-based EMR document management
and viewing services to hospitals and clinics via the Internet. SmartHealth
Services, Inc., in conjunction with its affiliate, Alpharetta, Georgia based
Smart Professional Photocopy Corporation, d/b/a Smart Corporation, distribute
their services through Smart Corporation's extensive sales distribution network
which currently
10
consists of over 1,000 hospitals and 4,600 clinic customers throughout 46
states. LanVision is compensated for use of its software based upon the number
of EMR images SmartHealth scans and stores using the MicroVision ASP
application. LanVision has not received any substantial revenues from
SmartHealth to date, and LanVision is uncertain about future revenues in light
of a current contractual dispute with SmartHealth regarding licensing revenues
payable to LanVision.
In November 2000, LanVision entered into an agreement with Provider HealthNet
Services Inc. (PHNS) a privately held, Dallas, TX based company, which allowed
PHNS to offer LanVision's MicroVision EMR product to provide EMR document
management and viewing services to PHNS' customer base. PHNS is a healthcare
industry information technology and business outsourcing company, which provides
information technology and professional management of information systems,
medical records and related business processes to hospitals and other healthcare
providers on a shared basis to improve healthcare services and reduce costs. The
relationship with LanVision allowed PHNS to more effectively use information
technology and the LanVision document imaging and management solution for
medical records and other business processes to improve healthcare services and
reduce costs for its customers. The LanVision ASP services allowed PHNS to offer
a state-of-the-art, Application Service Provider-based EMR solution, an offering
that contributes to increased process efficiency for medical records functions.
To date, LanVision has recorded no revenues from PHNS. The LanVision/PHNS
agreement contained a provision that enabled LanVision or PHNS to terminate the
agreement should certain financial targets not be met by November 6, 2001. The
financial targets were not met. Accordingly, LanVision terminated the PHNS
agreement effective November 6, 2001.
In November 2001, LanVision announced that it had signed a letter of intent with
3M Health Information Systems, a division of the Minnesota Mining and
Manufacturing Company (3M), to offer remote, web-enabled, internet accessible,
medical records coding and abstracting through the integration of
codingANYware(SM), LanVision's remote coding product, with 3M Health management
technology for patient data abstracting. The planned agreement will provide for
the health information management industry's first fully integrated remote
coding and data abstracting software solution. 3M's strong reputation for
market-leading coding and abstracting products, and LanVision's wealth of
experience in document imaging and workflow solutions will make for a truly
integrated remote coding and abstracting product and will maximize the
efficiency of remote coding operations and streamline billing, thereby reducing
a healthcare organization's accounts receivable. The capabilities of the
combined 3M and LanVision software will help address the industry's critical
shortage of trained coders and abstractors by making it possible to code and
abstract medical records from any location outside the hospital. This new
software creates an effective tool for recruiting coding personnel who prefer to
work from home or for use by remote coding companies who provide outsourcer
coding and abstracting services to the healthcare industry.
The decision by a healthcare provider to replace, substantially modify or
upgrade its information systems is a strategic decision and often involves a
large capital commitment requiring an extended approval process. TheSince
inception, the Company has experienced extended sales cycles, which has
adversely affected revenues. It is common for sales cycles to take six to
eighteen months from initial contact to the execution of an agreement. As a
result, the sales cycles can cause significant
11
variations in quarter to quarterquarter-to-quarter operating results. These agreements cover the
entire implementation of the system and specify the implementation schedule,
which typically takes place in one or more phases. The agreements generally
provide for the licensing of the Company's proprietary software and third-partythird party
software with a one-time perpetual or term license fee that is adjusted depending on the
number of concurrent users or workstations concurrently using the software. Third-partyThird party
hardware is usually sold outright, with a one-time fee charged for installation
and training. Site-specific customization, interfaces with existing customer
systems and other consulting services are sold on a fixed fee or a time and
materials basis. Alternatively, with the Company's eHealth ASP services, the agreements
generally provide for utilizing the Company's software and third party software
on a fee per transaction or subscription basis.
Generally, revenue from systems sales is recognized when an agreement is signed
and products are shipped. Revenue recognition related to routine installation,
integration and project management is deferred until the work is performed. If
an agreement requires the Company to perform services and modifications that are
deemed significant to system acceptance, revenue is recorded either on the
percentage-of-completion method or revenue related to the delivered hardware and
software components is deferred until such obligations are deemed insignificant,
depending on the contractual terms. Revenues from consulting, training and ASP
services are recognized as the services are performed. Revenues from short-term
support and maintenance agreements are recognized ratably over the term of the
agreements. Billings to customers recorded prior to the recognition of 10
11
the
revenue are classified as deferred revenues. Revenue recognized prior to
progress billings to customers is recorded as unbilled receivables.
The Company's eHealthASPeN Services, Application Service Provider divisionoffered by its ASP Division, was designed to
overcome obstacles in the buying decision such as large capital commitment,
length of implementation, and the scarcity of time for Healthcare Information
Systems personnel to implement new systems. Customers pay for such services on a
transaction or subscription basis, and the centralized data center application
is operated and maintained by LanVision personnel and/or its agents. In 1999,
the eHealth ServicesASP Division signed a four-year contract with The Health Alliance of Greater
Cincinnati, a group of five hospitals in the Greater Cincinnati Area, to provide
outsourced data center operations of its LanVision Electronic Medical Record
System. Management believes more IDN's will begin to
look forutilize this type of eHealthASP
application. Additionally, the Company believes its business model is especially
well suited for the ambulatory marketplace. LanVision is actively pursuing
remarketing agreements with Healthcare Information Systems providers to
distribute the Company's eHealthASP solutions.
In 1998, the Company entered into a five-year Remarketing Agreement with SharedSiemens
Medical SystemsSolutions Health Services Corporation ("SMS")(SMS). Under the terms of the
agreement, SMS was granted an exclusive worldwide license to distribute
ChartVision(R), On-Line Chart Completion(TM), WebView(TM) and Enterprisewide
Correspondence(TM) to the SMS customer base and prospect base, as defined in the
agreement, and a non-exclusive license to distribute all other LanVision
products. If SMS distributes any other Electronic Medical Record product
competing with LanVision's products, the Company may terminate the SMS
Remarketing Agreement.
Under the terms of the agreement, SMS remits royalties to LanVision based upon
SMS sublicensing the Company's software to SMS's customers. Twenty-fiveGenerally,
twenty-five percent of the royalty is due 30 days following the end of the
quarter in which SMS executes the end user license agreement with its customer.

is fixed and determinable, which is generally when the software is shipped to the end user.implementation activities
commence. Through October 31, 2000,2001, SMS has sold tentwenty systems to end-users.
In August 2000, the Company entered into an agreement with eSmartHealth, Inc.
("eSmart") which allows eSmart to utilize LanVision' MicroVision(TM) Electronic
Medical Record ("EMR") product combined with web-based eSmart software to
provide affordable, web-based EMR document management and viewing services to
hospitals and clinics via the Internet. eSmart, in conjunction with their
affiliate Alpharetta, Georgia based Smart Professional Photocopy Corporation
d/b/a Smart Corporation, will distribute their services through Smart
Corporation's extensive sales distribution network which currently consists of
over 1,000 hospitals and 4,600 clinic customers throughout 46 states. LanVision
will be compensated for use of its software based upon the number of EMR images
eSmart scans and stores using the MicroVision application. The current estimate
is that eSmart will begin using the LanVision software starting late in the
fiscal fourth quarter or the first quarter of fiscal year 2001.
In November 2000, the Company entered into an agreement with Provider HealthNet
Services Inc. ("PHNS") which allows PHNS to offer LanVision's MicroVision EMR
product to provide EMR document management and viewing services to PHNS'
customer base. PHNS is a healthcare industry information technology and
business outsourcing company, which provides information technology and
professional management of information systems, medical records and related
business processes to hospitals and other healthcare providers on a shared basis
to improve
11
12
healthcare services and reduce costs. The relationship with LanVision will allow
PHNS to more effectively use information technology and the LanVision eHealth
Services document imaging and management solution for medical records and other
business processes to improve healthcare services and reduce costs for its
customers. The LanVision eHealth Services allows PHNS to offer a state-of-the
art, Application Service Provider-based EMR solution, an offering that
contributes to increased process efficiency for medical records functions. PHNS
currently provides medical record, transcription and coding management
outsourcing services to nine hospitals, many of which, we were advised by PHNS,
are in the process of converting to or considering an EMR solution. The
LanVision eHealth Services provided by PHNS will be delivered on an ASP basis
through a centralized data center staffed by seasoned information technology
professionals with healthcare experience. LanVision will be compensated by PHNS
for use of its software based upon the number of encounters, or patient visits,
to each hospital using the LanVision EMR software.
PHNS is a privately held, Dallas based company which currently has over 420
experienced healthcare information technology and business process employees
that provide outsourcing services to 16 hospitals in 9 states
To date, LanVision has recorded no revenues from eSmart or PHNS and we can not
predict when, if ever, revenues will be generated from these two new agreements.
UNEVEN PATTERNS OF QUARTERLY OPERATING RESULTS
The Company's revenues from systems sales have varied, and may continue to vary,
significantly from quarter to quarterquarter-to-quarter as a result of the volume and timing of
systems sales and delivery. Professional services revenues also fluctuate from
quarter to quarter as a result of the timing of the installation of software and
hardware, project management and customized programming. Revenues from
maintenance services do not fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter, but
have been increasing as the number of customers increase. Revenues from eHealth
Service BureauASP
application hosting operations are expected to increase over time, as more
hospitals outsource services to LanVision's eHealth ServiceASP Division, or its remarketing
partners begin to utilize the software, and existing customers increase the
volume of documents stored on the systems, and the number of retrievals
increase.
The Company's revenues and operating results may vary significantly from
quarter
to quarterquarter-to-quarter as a result of a number of other factors, many of which are
outside the Company's control. These factors include the relatively high
purchase price of a system, unpredictability in the number and timing of systems
sales, length of the sales cycle, delays in the installation process and changes
in the customer's financial condition or budget and the sales and implementation
activities of the remarketing partners. As a result, period to period
comparisons may not be meaningful with respect to the past operations of the
Company nor are they necessarily indicative of the future operations of the
Company.
REVENUES
Revenues for the third fiscal quarter ended October 31, 2000,2001, were $2,646,686,$3,385,029,
compared with $2,984,069$2,646,686 reported in the comparable quarter of 1999.2000. Revenues
for the first nine months ended October 31, 2000,2001, were $6,757,056,$8,196,335, compared with
$7,357,600$6,757,056 reported in the comparable period of 1999. System sales2000. The increase for the

system installations and fewer professional services used by customers in the
current period when compared with the prior period when many customers were
upgrading to year 2000 compliant LanVision software
revenues from new contracts and two major
implementations wereimplementation of existing contracts through our
remarketing partner. Notwithstanding the increase in progress. Revenuesrevenues for the first nine
months of fiscal 2000 continued to be affected2001, LanVision believes that the current market opportunity
for its products is significantly greater then the current revenues would
suggest because many healthcare organizations deferredcontinue to defer new software
purchases until allfinal Federal Health Privacy Regulations are promulgated, to
comply with the requirements of HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and
Accountability Act of 1996). Although the HIPAA regulations have been
promulgated, many hospitals continue to formulate their existing systems were Year 2000 compliant.
Also, LanVision's remarketing partner, Shared Medical Systems Corporation, hasimplementation options
for compliance with HIPAA and purchase decisions for EMR products have been
slow to implement existing contracts, which adversely affects revenue
recognitionpostponed because 75% of LanVision's revenues from such contracts are
recognized only upon commencement of implementation activities on a contract by
contract basis.HIPAA and for many other reasons, including budgetary
constraints.
13
Additionally, healthcare institutions are assessing and implementing many new
technologies. Although many of these systems do not compete with LanVision
products, these systems do compete for capital budget dollars and the available
time of information systems personnel within the healthcare industries. However,
management continues to believe that revenue from ourits Remarketing Agreement with
SMS will continue to increase in the future since LanVision's product has been
fully integrated with the SMS product. LanVision continues to pursue indirect
sales channel opportunities through strategic business partner relationships to
expand its distribution opportunities. In addition, our web-based eHealthWeb browser-based ASP
application, which is currently available and in production with our customers
and available, through our Resellers,resellers, should further enhance revenues through
software royalties to LanVision with minimal additional cost. Both our Remarketing
and Reseller Agreements should continue to represent a greater percentage of the
Company's total revenues in the future.
Many healthcare organizations are beginning to plan additional information
technology projects following Year 2000 remediation and in anticipation of the
Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act ("HIPAA")HIPAA
compliance. The HIPAA isRegulations are a series of standards that are intended to
regulate the way health information is transmittedsecured and secured electronically.transmitted. A recent
healthcare industry report [Fitch(Fitch IBCA, Duff & Phelps]Phelps) stated that in order to
comply with the HIPAA healthcare information electronic transmission
regulations, healthcare systems will need to adjust existing systems or purchase
new information technology systems, hire and retrain staff, and make significant
changes to the current processes associated with maintaining patient privacy,
the cost of which is estimated to be somewhere between three to four times the
amount of expenditures required for Year 2000 remediation, or an amount in
excess of $25 billion. LanVision believes its highly evolved, secure and
technologically advanced web-based eHealthWeb browser-based solutions will position the Company
to take advantage of, what we continue to believe will be, significantly
increasing market opportunities for LanVision and its strategic distribution
partners in the future."
After an agreement is executed, LanVision does not record revenues until it
delivers the hardware and software or performs the agreed upon services. The
commencement of revenue recognition varies depending on the size and complexity
of the system and the scheduling of the implementation, training, interface
development and other services requested by the customer. Accordingly,
significant variations in revenues can result as was more fully discussed above
under "Uneven Patterns of Quarterly Operating Results." Three customers,
excluding our remarketing partner SMS, accounted for approximately 44%20% of the
revenues for the third quarter and 36%of 2001 compared with 44%, of revenues in the
comparable period of the prior year. Three customers, excluding our remarketing
partner SMS, accounted for approximately 22% of the revenues for the first nine
months of 20002001 compared with 29%36%, of revenues in the comparable period of the
prior year. Revenue from SMS accounted for approximately $1,370,000 and

OPERATING EXPENSES
Cost of Systems Sales
The cost of systems sales includes amortization of capitalized software
development costs on a straight-line basis, royalties and the cost of third-partythird
party software and hardware. Cost of systems sales as a percentage of systems
sales may vary from period to period depending on the mix of hardware and
software of the systems or add-on sales delivered. The cost of systems sales as
a percentage of systems sales for the third quarter and first nine months of
fiscal 20002001 were 14% and 1999
were 26% and 13%17%, respectively, and 37% and 28%, respectively,respectively. The cost of systems sales as a
percentage of systems sales for the third quarter and first nine months of
fiscal 2000 were 26% and 1999.37%, respectively. The higherlower percentage of cost of
sales reflects lowerhigher margins on thegreater volume of LanVision software revenues
and less hardware sold during the current periods compared to the comparable
prior periods, as well as increasedwhich had lower software amortization expense.revenues.
Cost of Services, Maintenance and Support
The cost of services, maintenance and support includes compensation and benefits
for support and professional services personnel and the cost of third-partythird party
maintenance contracts. As a percentage of services, maintenance and support
revenues, the cost of such services, maintenance and support was 53%60% and 52%57% for
the third quarter of fiscal 2000 and 1999, respectively and 61% and 62% for the first nine months, respectively, of fiscal 20002001. As a
percentage of services, maintenance and 1999, respectively.support revenues, the cost of such
services, maintenance and support was 54% and 61% for the third quarter and
first nine months, respectively, of fiscal 2000. The Company's support margins
are highest on LanVision's proprietary software. Accordingly, margins are
expected to improve as more customers are added. The professional services costs
increased in the current quarter due to higher use of outside consultants for
specific projects and decreased in the first nine months due to increased
overall staff utilization and lower third party maintenance costs.
The LanVision Professional Services staff provides services on a time and
material or fixed fee basis. The Professional Services staff periodically
experiences some inefficiencies in the delivery of services, and certain
projects have taken longer to complete than originally estimated, thus adversely
affecting operating performance. Additionally, the Professional Services staff
does spend a portion of its time on non-billable activities, such as selling
additional products and services to existing clients, developing training
courses and plans to move existing customers to LanVision's new product
releases, etc. Management believes an increase in the number of new systems
sold, and the related backlog, should improve the overall efficiency and
operating performance of this group.
Cost of Service BureauApplication Hoisting Operations
The cost of Service BureauApplication Hosting operations was significantly reduced with the
sale of the data center. (See Note 3 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial
Statements, above.) The Company now incurs expenses only for the
outsourcing services it uses which are directly related to the Service BureauApplication

Selling, General and Administrative
Selling, General and Administrative expenses consist primarily of: compensation
and related benefits and reimbursable travel and living expenses related to the
Company's sales, marketing and administrative personnel; advertising and
marketing expenses, including trade shows and 14
15
similar type sales and marketing
expenses; and general corporate expenses, including occupancy costs. During the
third quarter of fiscal 2000,2001, Selling, General and Administrative expenses
decreasedincreased to $751,513approximately $879,000 compared with $1,115,210approximately $751,000 in the

approximately $2,525,000 compared with $3,571,295approximately $2,505,000 in the
comparable prior nine month
period. The reductionsincrease in Selling, General and Administrative
expenses in the third quarter is due to decreased staffing levels and reducedincreases in corporate expenses,
in other areas.especially professional fees. The Company has gradually reduced its direct sales
staff as the Company focuses its sales efforts on indirect distribution through
its current and future Remarketing, Reseller and ASP strategic business
Partners. However, the Company may increase its direct sales force in the
foreseeable future as market opportunities arise.
Product Research and Development
Product research and development expenses consist primarily of: compensation and
related benefits; the use of independent contractors for specific development
projects; and an allocated portion of general overhead costs, including
occupancy. During the third quarter and first nine months, of fiscal 2000,
research and
development expenses were $353,469approximately $308,000 and $1,034,000, respectively,

comparable prior quarter and $1,280,418 in the first nine months compared with
$1,575,357 in the comparable prior nine month period as a result of a reduction
ofmonths. The decrease results primarily
from lower staff costs and use of outside contractors, and an increase in capitalized software
for new products under development.occupancy related expenses. The Company monitors
closely its Research and Development projects, and augments, with contract
programmers, its Research and Development staff, as necessary, to accelerate theensure timely
completion of its development of new products or enhancements to existing
products. The Company capitalized, in accordance with Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 86, $105,000 and $75,000$375,000 of product research and development costs
in the third quarter of fiscal 2000 and 1999, respectively

respectively.$315,000 of product research and
development cost for the first nine months of fiscal 2000. The capitalized costs
relate primarily to LanVision's two new products, accessANYware(SM), which is in
controlled general release and codingANYware, which is under development and is
expected to be released in the first quarter of fiscal 2002.

Notwithstanding the less than anticipated number of new customer agreements
signed in the past, management continues to believe that the healthcare document
imaging and workflow market is going to be a significant market.market, as evidenced by
five new sales by our remarketing partner in the third quarter. Management
believes it has made, and continues to make, the investments in the talent and
technology necessary to establish the Company as athe leader in this marketplace,
and continues to believe the Company is well positioned to experience
significant revenue growth primarily through third party distributors and
strategic business remarketing partners.
Since commencing operations in 1989, the Company has incurred operating losses.
Although the Company achieved profitability in fiscal years 1992, 1993, 2000 and
1993,currently anticipates profitability for 2001, the Company incurred a net loss in
fiscal years 1994 through 1999. In view of the Company's prior operating
history, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to achieve
consistent profitability on a quarterly or annual basis or that it will be able
to sustain or increase its revenue growth in future periods. Based upon the
expenses associated with current and planned staffing levels, profitability is
dependent upon increasingmaintaining current revenues. Notwithstanding the volatility of
quarter-to-quarter results, our year-to-date profitability and the prospect of
adding additional strategic business partners to increase our distribution
opportunities, we believe, should enable LanVision to continue to improve
operating profitability for the foreseeable future.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Since its inception in 1989,During the Companylast five fiscal years, LanVision has funded its operations, working
capital needs and capital expenditures primarily from a combination of cash
generated by operations, a 1994 private placement of convertible redeemable
preferred stock, an initial public offering, and borrowings, including a $6,000,000 loan in 1998.
The Company'sloan.
LanVision's customers typically have been well-established hospitals or medical
facilities or third party distributors with good credit histories, and payments have been received within
normal time frames for the industry. However, some healthcare organizations have
experienced significant operating losses as a result of limits on third-partythird party
reimbursements from insurance companies and governmental entities. Agreements
with customers often involve significant amounts and contract terms typically
require customers to make progress payments.
Agreements with third party distributors normally require payment as

The Company has no significant obligations for capital resources, other than
noncancelable operating leases in the total amount of approximately $328,000,
net of a sublease,$170,000,
payable over the next threetwo years.
Through Fiscal year 1999,Over the Company'slast several years, LanVision's revenues have beenwere less than the

over the last four and one halffive years. Although the
CompanyLanVision has reduced staffing levels and

In February 2000, LanVision sold its Data Center for $2,900,000. LanVision
received $2,000,000 and the remaining $900,000 was received in twelve monthly
installments. The sale resulted in a gain of approximately $1,400,000.
At October 31, 2000, the Company2001, LanVision had cash and cash equivalents of $7,946,950.$7,920,390. Cash

LanVision has significantly reduced its operating expenses during the last two
fiscal years, and believes the

and expenditure levels and in the Company should be able to break even. However, the

of increased revenues, LanVision could continue to operate at a loss.
Accordingly, for the foreseeable future, managementLanVision will need to continually
assess its revenue prospects compared to its current expenditure levels. If it
does not appear likely that revenues will increase, it may be necessary to
further reduce operating expenses or raise cash through additional borrowings,
the sale of assets, or other equity financing. Certain of these actions will
require lender approval. However, there can be no assurance the CompanyLanVision will be
successful in any of these efforts. If it is necessary to significantly reduce
operating expenses, this could have an adverse affecteffect on future operating
performance. The Company's long-term debt agreement, as amended on September 5, 2000,
currently requires that the Company maintain, certain financial covenants
including: Minimum Year-to-date Revenues of $5,500,000 as of October 31, 2000
and $8,800,000 as of January 31, 2001; Minimum Earnings (Loss) Before Interest
and Taxes of ($415,000) for the nine month period ended October 31, 2000, and
$400,000 for the fiscal year ending January 31, 2001; maintain minimum cash and
investment balances, as noted above; and maintain a Minimum Net Worth of
$800,000 through January 31, 2001 and $1,100,000 thereafter. On or before
February 28, 2001, the long-term debt agreement must be amended to establish new
financial covenants (at minimum levels acceptable to the lender) for fiscal year
2001 and thereafter. There can be no assurance that the Company's lender will
consent to a waiver of any covenants if they are not met. However, managementat this time, LanVision believes that the Company willit should be able to

Should LanVision's Net Worth decrease below the above noted minimums, the
Company's Common Stock could be delisted from The Nasdaq SmallCap Market. If

SIGNED AGREEMENTS - BACKLOG
LanVision, or its remarketing partners, enter into master agreements with their
customers to specify the scope of the system to be installed and services to be
provided, the agreed upon aggregate price and the timetable for implementation.
The master agreement typically provides that the Company, or its remarketing
partner, will deliver the system in phases pursuant to the customer's purchase
orders, thereby allowing the customer flexibility in the timing of its receipt
of systems and to make adjustments that may arise based upon changes in
technology or changes in customer needs. The master agreement also allows the
customer to request additional components as the installation progresses, which
additions are then separately negotiated as to price and terms. Historically,
customers have ultimately purchased systems and services in addition to those
originally contemplated by the master agreement, althoughagreement. Although there can be no
assurance that this trendcustomers will continue in the future.future to expand their systems and
purchase additional licenses and services, LanVision believes, based on its past
experience, that its customers will expand their existing systems.
At October 31, 2000,2001, the Company's and SMS' customers (excluding customers of
the eHealth Services Division) had entered into master
agreements for systems and services (excluding support and maintenance)maintenance and
transaction based revenues for the ASP Division), which had not yet been
delivered, installed and accepted which, if fully performed, would generate
revenue of approximately $4,709,000,$3,209,000, compared with approximately $4,551,000$4,255,000 at
the end of fiscal 1999.2000. The systems and services are currently expected to be
delivered over the next two to three years. In addition, the Company anticipates
approximately $2,400,000$1,900,000 in transaction-based fee revenues for the eHealth
ServicesASP
Division's current clientclients over the remaining thirty-five month life of
the contract.next two years. Because implementationsystems
implementations and Service Bureau eHealthApplication Hosting ASP fees are dependent upon the
customer's schedule and / or usage, the Company is unable to accurately predict accurately
the amount of revenues in future periods.
The Company's master agreements also generally provide for an initial
maintenance period and give the customer the right to subscribe for maintenance
and support services on a monthly, quarterly or annual basis. Maintenance and
support revenues for fiscal years 2000, 1999, and 1998 and 1997 were approximately
$3,678,000, $3,264,000, $2,755,000 and $2,151,000, respectively and are expected
to increase as new or expanded systems are installed.
The commencement of revenue recognition varies depending on the size and
complexity of the system, the implementation schedule requested by the customer
and usage by customers of the VHS-eHealth Services Division Service Bureau
operations.ASP Division. Therefore, LanVision is unable to
accurately predict the revenues it expects to achieve in any particular period.
The Company's master agreements generally provide that the customer may
terminate its agreement upon a material breach by the Company, or may delay
certain aspects of the installation. There can be no assurance that a customer
will not cancel all or any portion of a master agreement or delay installations.
A termination or installation delay of one or more phases of an agreement, or
the failure of the Company to procure additional agreements, could have a
material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and
results of operations.
