The accompanying notes to condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements are an integral part of these statements
Notes to condensed consolidated financial statements (unaudited)
1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
(a) Basis of Presentation—The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared by the Company in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures usually found in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company's Form 10-KSB, as filed with the SEC on February 13, 2007.
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly the financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for an interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for a full fiscal year.
(b) Use of Estimates—The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosed amounts of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the amounts of revenues and expenses recognized during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
(c) Research and Development Expenses—The Company expenses research and development costs as incurred. Research and development expense was $79,160 and $5,169 for the nine month period ended July 31, 2007 and 2006 respectively.
2. New Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2006, Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Interpretation (“FIN”) No. 48 “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes”. This interpretation clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) 109. This interpretation prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FIN No. 48 also provides guidance on recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. FIN No. 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. Management has not yet determined the impact this pronouncement will have on the Company’s financial statements.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS 157, “Fair Value Measurements.” This standard defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This standard is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. DataMetrics is currently evaluating the requirements of SFAS 157 and has not yet determined the impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 159, “Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities - Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115”. SFAS 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. DataMetrics is currently evaluating the requirements of SFAS 159 and has not yet determined the impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
3. Inventories
Stockroom inventories consist primarily of materials used by the Company for existing and anticipated contracts and materials and finished assemblies which are held to satisfy spare parts requirements of the Company’s customers. Those parts not expected to be sold within one year are classified as a non-current asset and fully reserved. The Company evaluates all inventories for obsolescence on a periodic basis and records estimated reserves accordingly.
Inventories as of July 31, 2007 consist of the following: | | (in thousands) | |
| | | |
Inventories Parts and sub-assemblies | | $ | 680 | |
Work in Process | | | 170 | |
Obsolete Inventory | | | 5,797 | |
Total Inventory | | | 6,647 | |
Reserve for Obsolete Inventory | | | 5,797 | |
Net Inventory | | $ | 850 | |
4. Short term debt
Short term debt at July 31, 2007 consist of the following: | |
In December 1998, the Company closed a private placement of approximately $3.45 million of 10% Subordinated Notes originally due in December 2000. As of July 31, 2007 all but $141 of this debt has been converted. Negotiations for the settlement of the remainder of this debt are ongoing. The debt is unsecured and callable under certain conditions. | | | $141 |
5. Notes payable-related parties
Notes Payable at July 31, 2007 consist of the following: | |
Notes Payable to investors; interest expense at 10% is to be paid monthly commencing January 31, 2007, including accrued and unpaid interest from 2006; principal and unpaid interest is due in full in December 2007. The note is secured by a first priority lien on all Company assets. | | | $500 |
6. Common stock
On December 15, 2006 the Company issued 174,887 shares of Common Stock with a par value of $0.01 in the amount of $20,986 ($0.12 per share) to a related party, SG DMTI Capital, LLC in lieu of the 4% annual cumulative dividend on the Series B Preferred Stock that was due on November 30, 2006.
7. Preferred stock
On December 6, 2006 the Company issued 300,000 shares of Series ‘B’ Preferred Stock with a par value of $0.01 to a related party, SG DMTI Capital, LLC. At January 31, 2007 the Company has 1,000,000 shares of Series ‘B’ Preferred Stock with a par value of $0.01 per share outstanding. The stock has a cumulative dividend of 4% per annum.
8. Loss per share of common stock
Basic and diluted loss per share of common stock are computed using the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Potentially dilutive securities have been excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share, as their effect is antidilutive. If the Company had reported net income, diluted earnings per share would have included the shares used in the computation of net loss per share plus common equivalent shares related to 12,935,000 for outstanding options and warrants for the fiscal years 2007 and 2006.
9. Subsequent events
On August 31, 2007, Mr. Edward Kroning resigned his position as Chief Financial Officer of the Company. Mr. Kroning retains his position as Corporate Secretary of the Company. Ms. Tami Tharp was elected by the Board of Directors to serve as the interim Chief Financial Officer until her successor is appointed.
On September 4, 2007, the Company signed an agreement to increase the principal balance of the Secured Promissory Note from $500,000 to $570,000, a net increase of $70,000. The additional $70,000 did not alter any of the rights and obligations with respect to the Secured Promissory Note other than increasing the principal amount of the loan. The entire principal and any unpaid accrued and unpaid interest (which accrues at a rate of 10% per annum) is due in full in December 2007.
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
The following discussion of the financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto. The following discussion contains certain forward-looking statements that involve risk and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed herein. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, risks and uncertainties related to the need for additional funds. We undertake no obligation to publicly release the results of any revisions to those forward-looking statements that may be made to reflect any future events or circumstances.
Business Overview
The Company designs, develops, and manufactures computers and computer peripheral equipment for military, industrial and commercial applications where reliable operation of the equipment in challenging environments is imperative. The systems and equipment are qualified for use in airborne, shipboard, and ground based applications. The Company’s product lines include a broad range of computers, computer workstations, servers, printers, plotters and monitors.
The Company offers military specified and ruggedized versions of flat panel monitors and other peripheral equipment (including computers, printers, keyboards and trackballs) encased in shock, vibration and temperature resistant chassis. The chassis produced by the Company are used in conjunction with its product by the military to house this sensitive ruggedized equipment. The Navy P3 Orion, Air Force AWACS and Army Fire-Finder programs all require rugged rack enclosures to protect the equipment from shock, vibration and other damage which may be experienced in a harsh operating environment. DataMetrics continues to focus upon increasing its presence in the military arena including United States Air Force avionics and ground-based systems as well as United States Army system diagnostics as well as increasing its presence in the mining sector and aviation industry, primarily with its electronic flight bag (EFB) controller. DataMetrics’ equipment is designed and qualified for use as part of commercial airlines cockpit systems.
For the year ended July 31, 2007, the Company has experienced slower than expected receipt of orders. Many of the military programs from which the Company anticipates generating its revenue have been rescheduled and military priorities have been reconsidered to account for short, medium, and long-term needs. The Company expects to see an increase in order activity in the remaining quarter and attributes the delay in orders due to a focus on budget spending for troops and munitions in the war effort in Afghanistan and Iraq. The following phases in this war and projected increase in overall military and defense spending may entail more sophisticated surveillance techniques and equipment, which will require data processing and peripheral equipment similar to the products we currently supply for the AWACS, P3 Orions aircraft and the armed forces.
RESULTS of OPERATIONS
For the Nine months Ended July 31, 2007
Sales. We had sales of $2,566,000 in the nine months ended July 31, 2007 compared to $2,537,000 in the comparable period in 2006, an increase of $29,000 or 1.14%. The increase in sales for the nine months ended July 31, 2007 is attributable mainly to an increase in the receipt of orders from the U.S. Government and major Defense Contractors.
Cost of sales. We had cost of sales of $1,762,000 in the nine months ended July 31, 2007, representing approximately 68.67% of sales, compared to cost of sales of $2,073,000 in the comparable period in 2006, which represented 81.71% of sales. The decrease of $311,000 or 15.00% was primarily due to a reduction in manufacturing overhead and fixed costs that were recorded in the comparable period in 2006.
Gross profit. We had gross profit of $804,000 in the nine months ended July 31, 2007 representing approximately 31.33% of sales, compared to a gross profit of $464,000 in the comparable period in 2006, which represented 18.29% of sales. The increase of $340,000 was primarily attributable to the decrease in cost of sales as previously discussed.
Selling, general and administrative expenses. We had selling, general and administrative, “SG&A”, expenses for the nine months ended July 31, 2007 of $1,281,000 approximately 49.92% of sales, compared to $1,230,000 in the comparable period in 2006, which represented 48.48% of sales. This represents an increase of $51,000 or 4.15% in SG&A and is attributable mainly to increased personnel and related costs associated with an increase in headcount for the fiscal year.
Loss from operations. We had loss from operations for the nine months ended July 31, 2007 of $(477,000) compared to loss from operations of $(766,000) in the comparable period in 2006, a decrease of $289,000 or 37.73%. The net decrease in loss from operations is attributable mainly to a reduced cost of sales of 15.00 % and an increase in SG&A as previously discussed.
Other expense. We had other expense of $24,000 for the nine months period ended July 31, 2007 compared to $1,940,000 in the comparable period in 2006, a decrease of $1,916,000 or 98.76%. The decrease was due primarily to warrants totaling 386,315,000 which were issued during 2006. The exercise price for the warrants was less than the market price of the stock resulting in stock based cost being recorded. The decrease is also due to a reduction in interest expense as a result of the debt restructuring that occurred on December 30, 2005 where the majority of long terms loans were either paid in full or converted into equity of the Company.
Net loss. We had net loss for the nine months ended July 31, 2007 of $(501,000) compared to a net loss of $(2,706,000) in the comparable period in 2006. The large net loss in 2006 was due primarily to warrants totaling 386,315,000 which were issued during 2006. The exercise price for the warrants was less than the market price of the stock resulting in stock based cost in the amount of $2,186,000 being recorded.
For the Three Months Ended July 31, 2007
Sales. We had sales of $643,000 for the three months ended July 31, 2007 compared to $329,000 in the comparable period in 2006, an increase of $314,000 or 95.44%. The increase in sales for the three months ended July 31, 2007 is attributable mainly to an increase in the receipt of orders from the U.S. Government and major Defense Contractors.
Cost of sales. We had cost of sales of $482,000 the three months ended July 31, 2007, representing approximately 74.96% of sales, compared to cost of sales of $529,000 in the comparable period in 2006, which represented 160.79% of sales. The decrease of $47,000 or 8.88% was primarily due to a reduction in manufacturing overhead and fixed costs that were recorded in the comparable period in 2006.
Gross profit. We had gross profit of $161,000 in the three months ended July 31, 2007 representing approximately 25.04% of sales, compared to a gross profit of $(200,000) in the comparable period in 2006, which represented (60.79)% of sales. The increase of $361,000 or 180.50% was primarily due to the increase in sales as previously discussed.
Selling, general and administrative expenses. We had selling, general and administrative, “SG&A”, expenses for the three months ended July 31, 2007 of $367,000, approximately 57.08% of sales, compared to $371,000 in the comparable period in 2006, which represented 112.77% of sales. SG&A expenses, stated as a percentage of sales, decreased substantially between years due to increased sales for 2007 as compared to the same period in 2006.
Loss from operations. We had loss from operation for the three months ended July 31, 2007 of $(206,000) compared to loss from operations of $(571,000) in the comparable period in 2006, a decrease of $365,000 or 63.92%. The decrease in loss from operations is attributable mainly to an increased sales volume of 95.44%.
Other (expense)/income. We had other expense of $(18,000) for the three months period ended July 31, 2007 compared to other income of $6,000 in the comparable period in 2006, a decrease in other income of $24,000 or 400.00%. The increase in other expense is primarily attributable to directors compensation that was not recorded in the comparable period in 2006.
Net loss. We had net loss for the three months ended July 31, 2007 of $(224,000) compared to a net loss of $(565,000) in the comparable period in 2006. The decrease in net loss is due to an increase in sales as discussed previously.
LIQUIDITY and CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's principal capital requirements have been to fund working capital. The Company has relied primarily on internally generated funds, private placement proceeds, and subordinated debt to finance its operations. The Company has no material commitments for capital expenditures which would affect its liquidity.
Net cash used in operating activities was $461,000 and $542,000 in 2007 and 2006 respectively. The change from 2006 to 2007 was primarily due to an increase in inventory levels to fulfill upcoming sales orders and as a result of the net loss.
Net cash provided by investing activities in 2006 was $1,445,000 derived from the sale of the building. There were no investing activities in 2007.
Net cash provided / (used) by financing activities was $300,000 and $(932,000) in 2007 and 2006, respectively. The change from 2006 to 2007 was primarily related to the refinancing of the property located at 1717 Diplomacy Row, Orlando, FL., and the issuance of Preferred stock as described below.
The Company has generated much of the cash flow to sustain current operations through a combination of sales and from debt and equity transactions.
On December 6, 2006, the Company issued SGD 300,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock for $300,000. As a result, an aggregate of 1,000,000 shares of shares of Series B Preferred Stock, the total amount of shares issuable under the Series B Preferred Stock and Warrant Purchase Agreement dated December 30, 2005, have been issued to SGD. The proceeds of the sale of the 300,000 shares were used for general working capital.
On December 15, 2006 the Company issued 174,887 shares of Common Stock with a par value of $0.01 in the amount of $20,986 to a related party, SG DMTI Capital, LLC in lieu of the 4% annual cumulative dividend on the Series B Preferred Stock that was due on November 30, 2006.
On September 4, 2007, the Company signed an agreement to increase the principal balance of the Secured Promissory Note from $500,000 to $570,000, a net increase of $70,000. The additional $70,000 did not alter any of the rights and obligations with respect to the Secured Promissory Note other than increasing the principal amount of the loan. The entire principal and any accrued and unpaid interest (which accrues at a rate of 10% per annum) is due in full in December 2007. The proceeds were used for general working capital.
The liquidity of the Company has been affected by net losses for the second and third quarters of 2007, and fiscal years 2006 and 2005, which raise doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s realization of assets and satisfactions of liabilities in the ordinary course of business are dependent upon several factors including the Company’s ability to secure additional funding through investment groups and the generation of sufficient cash flow to satisfy its obligations on a timely basis.
The Company as part of its plan towards resolving these issues has taken the actions described below. Management believes that its current and future plans provide an opportunity to continue as a going concern. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue as a going concern.
· | During fiscal year 2007, the operations and processes of the Company are being analyzed and restructured to obtain greater efficiencies in production and distribution. Management continues to evaluate operations as well and has made several changes in management and personnel that are designed to improve product distribution, project completion and on-time delivery. Management believes that these efficiencies have positioned the Company to experience increased sales volume. |
· | Effective May 24, 2007, Mr Daniel Bertram resigned his postion as a member of the Board of Directors, Chief Executive Officer and President of the Company. Mr. John Marceca was elected to serve as President and Chief Operating Officer. |
· | On June 1, 2007 the Company successfully completed a reduction in force reducing annual payroll expense approximately $167,000 and reducing the employee headcount from 31 to 27 employees. |
