ITC LEARNING CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2000
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements of ITC Learning Corporation (“ITC” or the “Company”) include the accounts of its wholly owned subsidiaries Activ Training, Ltd. (“Activ”), ITC Australasia Pty. Ltd. (“ITCA”), Turn-Key Training Technologies, Inc. (“Turn-Key”), ITC Canada Limited, and ComSkill Learning Centers, Inc. (“ComSkill”).
ITC is a worldwide provider of education and training software to professionals in business, education and government organizations. Incorporated under the laws of the state of Maryland in 1977 the Company develops, markets and delivers specific libraries of interactive multimedia computer-based training (“CBT”) courseware designed for CD-ROM, intranet and Internet delivery, thus enabling organizations to effectively and efficiently deliver training to improve individual and organizational performance. The Company operates in four reportable segments: U.S., Canada, Australia and the United Kingdom.
Significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the interim condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to improve comparability to current year presentations. The interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s December 31, 1999 audited financial statements included with the Company’s filing on Form 10-KSB. The interim operating results are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full fiscal year.
The Company’s financial statements have been presented on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company experienced a net loss in the six months ended June 30, 2000, and the years ended 1999 and 1998. Although the Company expects operating results to improve, there can be no assurances that the Company will not experience adverse results of operation in the future. The Company believes that its existing cash, anticipated cash flows from 2000 operations, proceeds from sale of non-core Company assets, and planned capital fund raising activities should provide sufficient resources to fund its activities in 2000. However, the timing of aforementioned capital infusion is critical, as the Company is currently receiving pressure from some of its larger suppliers. Anticipated cash flows from 2000 operations are largely dependent upon the Company’s ability to achieve its sales and gross profit objectives for its currently existing products and new products to be launched in 2000. Achievement of these objectives is subject to various risk factors related to, among other things: incremental sales resulting from expansion of distribution capabilities; the Company’s ability to deploy its courseware over the Internet and corporate intranets; the Company’s ability to control costs in relation to future revenues, the acceptance of the Company’s new CBT courseware management system and the Company’s ability to raise capital. If the Company is unable to meet these objectives, it will consider expansion of existing or development of alternative sources of bank financing; the curtailment of certain capital expenditures and discretionary expenditures (such as travel, consulting and salaries); and various other courses of action, including the possible sale of the Company. These are forward-looking statements.See Forward-Looking Statements and Risk Factors for Further Discussion.

NOTE 1 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES — (Continued)
Revenues and Costs
Revenues include both off-the-shelf and custom courseware sales, courseware licenses, consulting service revenues and hardware revenues. The Company recognizes revenues from off-the-shelf product and hardware sales as units are shipped. The Company permits the customer the right to return the courseware within 30 days of purchase. Revenues from sales of custom training programs that are developed and produced under specific contracts with customers, including contracts with affiliated joint ventures and limited partnerships, are recognized on a percentage of completion basis as related costs are incurred during the production period. Gross revenues from sales of affiliated joint venture and limited partnership copyrighted courseware are included in the Company’s financial statements, as are related production, selling and distribution costs. Amounts due to co-owners of the affiliated venture/partnerships related to such courseware sales are reflected as royalties and included in cost of sales in the financial statements. Revenues from courseware licenses are recognized upon the delivery of the initial copy of each product licensed, and related duplication costs are accrued based on estimates. Revenues from consulting services are recognized as services are performed.
Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share
Basic earnings per common share is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per common share is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the effect of stock options and other potentially dilutive common stock equivalents. The dilutive effect of stock options and other potentially dilutive common stock equivalents is determined using the treasury stock method based on the Company’s average stock price.

ITEM 2. | Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results |
of Operations
Overview of Business
ITC Learning Corporation is a worldwide provider of education and training software to professionals in business, education and government organizations. Incorporated under the laws of the state of Maryland in 1977 the Company develops, markets and delivers specific libraries of interactive multimedia CBT training courseware designed for CD-ROM, intranet and Internet delivery, thus enabling organizations to effectively and efficiently deliver training to improve individual and organizational performance.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND RISK FACTORS
Forward-looking Statements
Certain statements made by the Company’s management may be considered to be “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are based on various factors and assumptions that include known and unknown risks and uncertainties. The words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate” and “project,” and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date the statement was made. Such statements may include, but not be limited to, projections of revenues, income or loss, expenses, availability of capital, plans, as well as assumptions relating to the foregoing. Forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which cannot be predicted or quantified. Future results could differ materially from those described in forward-looking statements as a result of the risks set forth in the following discussion, among others.
Risk Factors
The Company’s financial statements have been presented on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company experienced a net loss in the six months ended June 30, 2000, and the years ended 1999 and 1998. Although the Company expects operating results to improve, there can be no assurances that the Company will not experience adverse results of operation in the future. The Company believes that its existing cash, anticipated cash flows from 2000 operations, proceeds from sale of non-core Company assets, and planned capital fund raising activities should provide sufficient resources to fund its activities in 2000. However, the timing of aforementioned capital infusion is critical, as the Company is currently receiving pressure from some of its larger suppliers. Anticipated cash flows from 2000 operations are largely dependent upon the Company’s ability to achieve its sales and gross profit objectives for its currently existing products and new products to be launched in 2000. Achievement of these objectives is subject to various risk factors related to, among other things: incremental sales resulting from expansion of distribution capabilities; the Company’s ability to deploy its courseware over the Internet and corporate intranets; the Company’s ability to control costs in relation to future revenues, the acceptance of the Company’s new CBT courseware management system and the Company’s ability to raise capital. If the Company is unable to meet these objectives, it will consider expansion of existing or development of alternative sources of bank financing; the curtailment of certain capital expenditures and discretionary expenditures (such as travel, consulting and salaries); and various other courses of action, including the possible sale of the Company. These are forward-looking statements.See Forward-Looking Statements and Risk Factors for Further Discussion.
A number of factors could also contribute to significant fluctuations in operating results, which may result in volatility in the price of the Company’s common stock. These include, but are not limited to, the size and timing of orders and shipments, the mix of ITC-developed products and third party products, the mix of sales from the Company’s direct and indirect distribution channels, the introduction and acceptance of new products, and the degree to which the market understands and accepts the Company’s role as a provider of training solutions.
11
In addition, the Company faces certain general business risks, which could materially and adversely impact future operating results. These include, but are not limited to, changes in economic conditions, the cost of labor and raw materials, changes in technology and general competitive factors.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Three months ended June 30, 2000 (“Second Quarter of 2000”) compared to the three months ended June 30, 1999 (“Second Quarter of 1999”)
Revenues
Total revenues for the second quarter of 2000 totaled $1,508,000, as compared to $5,469,000 for the second quarter of 1999, representing a decrease of $3,961,000 or 72%. Courseware revenues, which include sales of off-the-shelf CBT products, custom CBT products, learning management system sales, consulting services, fees, royalties and videotape training products, totaled $1,502,000 during the second quarter of 2000, as compared to $5,205,000 for the second quarter of 1999. The decrease in revenues was primarily attributable to decreased sales of the Company’s learning management system — AdminSTAR™, and decreased courseware product sales within the Company’s U.S. and Canadian markets.
Revenues generated from the sale of the Company’s AdminSTAR™ product were $18,000 in the second quarter of 2000 as compared to $2,218,000 in the second quarter of 1999. The decline in sales of the Company’s AdminSTAR™ product was the result of the Company’s decision during the first quarter of 2000 to cease supporting the development and sales efforts related to this product line. The Company’s subsequent decision to divest this product line was based on several factors, primarily relating to the depth and breadth of features AdminSTAR™ provides to its customers. AdminSTAR™ is an Enterprise-Level, non-scalable, software product designed to manage the intellectual capital (employee skills and development) throughout an organization. As an off-the-shelf CBT training company, ITC made the decision to seek a strategic buyer for AdminSTAR™ that could better support the development and sale of this enterprise-level software product. SeeNote 8 to the condensed consolidated financial statements — Subsequent Eventrelating to the sale of the AdminSTAR™ product line.
Courseware product revenues generated from the Company’s U.S. operation during the second quarter of 2000 were $621,000 as compared to $1,199,000 for the second quarter of 1999, representing a decrease of $578,000 or 48%. Courseware product revenues generated from the Company’s Canadian operation during the second quarter of 2000 were $108,000 as compared to $629,000 for the second quarter of 1999, representing a decrease of $521,000 or 83%. The decline in Courseware product revenues from the Company’s North American operations was the result of working capital constraints faced by the Company during the first six months of 2000, which hindered the Company’s ability to aggressively recruit, train and support both direct and indirect sales and marketing resources. The Company believes its sales and marketing organization can perform at a level sufficient to generate positive cash flow for the Company, and will continue to leverage its existing, and new sales and marketing resources to increase revenues. This is a forward-looking statement.See Forward-Looking Statements and Risk Factors for Further Discussion.
12
Cost of Sales and Gross Margin
Cost of sales consists of the amortized costs of developing new course titles and updating the Company’s existing libraries, product material costs, fulfillment costs, reseller discount fees, sales commissions, third party product royalties and hardware costs. Cost of sales for the second quarter 2000 totaled $1,200,000 resulting in a gross margin of $308,000 or 20% of total revenues, as compared to cost of sales of $1,955,000 and gross margin of $3,514,000 or 64% of total revenues for the second quarter of 1999. The decrease in cost of sales of $755,000 in 2000 as compared to 1999 was the result of decreased sales volume. The decrease in gross margin of $3,206,000 and gross margin percentage of 44% was primarily attributable to decreased revenue in relation to fixed product development amortization costs, as well as changes in the mix of sales from the Company’s direct and indirect sales channels.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses totaled $2,193,000 for the second quarter of 2000, as compared to $3,131,000 for the second quarter of 1999, representing a decrease of $938,000 or 30%.
Selling expenses consist primarily of salaries of sales personnel, travel, advertising, marketing and promotional expenses. Selling expenses for the second quarter of 2000 totaled $850,000, as compared to $1,609,000 for the second quarter of 1999, representing a decrease of $759,000 or 47%. The decrease in selling expenses in the second quarter of 2000 as compared to the second quarter of 1999 was primarily due to the Company’s reduction of North American sales and marketing personnel during the last half of 1999.
General and administrative expenses consist of the costs of developing new products and the costs of the Company’s executive management and support functions such as customer assurance, product fulfillment, human resources, and finance and administration. General and administrative expense for the second quarter of 2000 totaled $1,343,000, as compared to $1,522,000 for the second quarter of 1999, representing a decrease of $179,000 or 12%. The decrease in general and administrative expenses in the second quarter of 2000 as compared to the second quarter of 1999 was primarily due to the effect of a reduction in North American administrative personnel during the fourth quarter of 1999.
Income Before Income Taxes and Net Income
Operations for the second quarter of 2000 resulted in a pre-tax and net loss of $2,059,000, or $0.53 per share, as compared to pre-tax and net income of $374,000, or $0.10 per share, for the second quarter of 1999. The higher pre-tax and net loss for the second quarter of 2000 was primarily due to decreased revenues and resulting gross margin as compared to the first quarter of 1999.
Six months ended June 30, 2000 (“first half of 2000”) compared to the six months ended June 30, 1999 (“first half of 1999”)
Revenues
Revenues for the first half of 2000 totaled $3,330,000 as compared to $11,172,000 for the first half of 1999, representing a decrease of $7,842,000 or 70%. The decrease in revenues was primarily attributable to decreased sales of the Company’s learning management system — AdminSTARTM, and decreased courseware product sales within the Company’s U.S. and Canadian markets.
Revenues generated from sales of the Company’s AdminSTARTM product were $41,000 in the first half of 2000 as compared to $2,520,000 in the first half of 1999. The decline in sales of the Company’s AdminSTARTM product was the result of the Company’s decision during the first quarter of 2000 to cease supporting the development and sales efforts related to this product line. The Company’s subsequent decision to divest this product line was based on several factors, primarily relating to the depth and breadth of features AdminSTARTM provides to its customers. AdminSTARTM is an Enterprise-Level, non-scalable, software product designed to manage the intellectual capital (employee skills and development) throughout an organization. As an off-the-shelf CBT training provider, the Company made the decision to seek a strategic buyer for AdminSTARTM that could better support the development and sale of this enterprise-level software

product. SeeNote 8 to the condensed consolidated financial statements — Subsequent Eventrelating to the sale of the AdminSTAR™ product line.
The Company believes the prepaid royalty component of the consideration received from the sale of the AdminSTAR™ product line to be significant revenue generating opportunity given the current demand from its existing customers to upgrade from the Company’s legacy CBT courseware management system. Following the execution of the OEM and distribution agreement, signed on May 22, 2000 between ITC and Learnframe, Inc., the Company had immediate access to a more sophisticated CBT courseware management system, for the purpose of upgrading its existing customer base. ITC believes there will be substantial interest from its existing customer base to upgrade from ITC’s legacy CBT courseware management system to the private labeled version of Learnframe’sPinnacle Learning Managerproduct, and provide the Company with a substantial revenue generating opportunity. These are forward-looking statements.See Forward-Looking Statements and Risk Factors for Further Discussion.
Courseware product revenues generated from the Company’s U.S. operation during the first half of 2000 were $1,319,000 as compared to $4,623,000 for the first half of 1999, representing a decrease of $3,304,000 or 71%. Courseware product revenues generated from the Company’s Canadian operation during the first half of 2000 were $147,000 as compared to $1,074,000 for the first half of 1999, representing a decrease of $927,000 or 86%. The decline in courseware product revenues from the Company’s North American operations was the result of working capital constraints faced by the Company during the first six months of 2000, which hindered the Company’s ability to aggressively recruit, train and support both direct and indirect sales and marketing resources. The Company believes its sales and marketing organization can perform at a level sufficient to generate positive cash flow for the Company, and will continue to leverage its existing, and new sales and marketing resources to increase revenues. This is a forward-looking statement.See Forward-Looking Statements and Risk Factors for Further Discussion.
Cost of Sales and Gross Margin
Cost of sales for the first half of 2000 totaled $2,327,000 resulting in a gross margin of $1,003,000 or 30% of total revenues, as compared to cost of sales of $4,513,000 resulting in gross margin of $6,659,000 or 60% of total revenues for the first half of 1999. The decrease in cost of sales of $2,186,000 in 2000 as compared to 1999 was the result of decreased sales volume. The decrease in gross margin of $5,656,000 and gross margin percentage of 30% was primarily attributable to decreased revenue in relation to fixed product development amortization costs, as well as changes in the mix of sales from the Company’s direct and indirect sales channels.
Effective July 31, 2000, the Company completed a transaction for the sale of its AdminSTAR™ product line to Learnframe, Inc. SeeNote 8 to the condensed and consolidated financial statements — Subsequent Event. The Company believes it will realize annual savings of approximately $348,000 in amortization charges as a result of the divestiture of this product line.

Selling, general and administrative expenses totaled $4,389,000 for the first half of 2000 as compared to $6,006,000 for the first half of 1999, representing a decrease of $1,617,000 or 27%.
Selling expenses for the first half of 2000 totaled $1,637,000 as compared to $3,195,000 for the first half of 1999, representing a decrease of $1,558,000 or 49%. The decrease in selling expenses during the first half of 2000 as compared to the first half of 1999 was primarily due to the Company’s reduction of sales and marketing personnel during the last half of 1999.
General and administrative expenses for the first half of 2000 totaled $2,752,000 as compared to $2,811,000 for the first half of 1999, representing a decrease of $59,000 or 2%. The decrease in general and administrative expenses during the first half of 2000 as compared to the first half of 1999 was primarily due the effect of a reduction in North American administrative personnel during the fourth quarter of 1999.

Effective July 31, 2000, the Company completed a transaction for the sale of its AdminSTAR™ product line to Learnframe, Inc. SeeNote 8 to the condensed consolidated financial statements — Subsequent Event. The Company believes it will realize annual cost savings of approximately $267,000 in development and sales related expenses and $205,000 in depreciation and amortization expenses as a result of the divestiture of this product line. This is a forward-looking statement.See Forward-Looking Statements and Risk Factors for Further Discussion.
Income Before Income Taxes and Net Income
Operations for the first half of 2000 resulted in pre-tax and net loss of $3,694,000 or $0.94 per share, as compared to a pre-tax and net income of $651,000 or $0.17 per share for the first half of 1999. The higher pre-tax and net loss for the second half of 2000 was primarily due to decreased revenues and resulting gross margin as compared to the first half of 1999.
CASH FLOW, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Working capital deficit at June 30, 2000 was $3,303,000 as compared to a deficit of $307,000 at December 31, 1999, representing a decrease in working capital of $2,996,000, primarily due to the April 2, 2001 maturity date of $2,200,000 in convertible debt payable, as well as the Company’s negative operating performance for the first six months of 2000.
Cash provided by operating activities totaled $15,000 for the first half of 2000, as compared to $214,000 for the first half of 1999, representing a decrease of $199,000. The decrease was primarily due to increased turnover of operating assets in relation to operating liabilities during the second quarter of 2000, offset by lower net income as compared to the first half of 1999. Effective July 31, 2000, the Company completed a transaction for the sale of its AdminSTAR™ product line to Learnframe, Inc. SeeNote 8 to the condensed consolidated financial statements — Subsequent Event. The Company believes it will realize annual cash cost savings of approximately $267,000 in development and sales related expenses as a result of the divestiture of this product line. This is a forward-looking statement.See Forward-Looking Statements and Risk Factors for Further Discussion.
Cash used for investing activities totaled $323,000 for the first half of 2000, as compared to cash used for investing activities of $1,491,000 for the first half of 1999, representing a decrease of $1,168,000. The decrease was primarily due to decreased capital and product development expenditures during the first half of 2000 as compared to the first half of 1999.
Cash provided by financing activities totaled $81,000 for the first half of 2000, as compared to cash provided by financing activities of $1,324,000 for the first half of 1999, representing a decrease of $1,243,000. The decrease was primarily due to the Company’s decreased utilization and subsequent payoff of its line of credit, offset by the issuance of long-term notes payable during the first quarter of 2000.
The Company believes that its existing cash, anticipated cash flows from 2000 operations, proceeds from sale of non-core Company assets, and planned capital fund raising activities should provide sufficient resources to fund its activities in 2000. However, the timing of aforementioned capital infusion is critical, as the Company is currently receiving pressure from some of its larger suppliers. Anticipated cash flows from 2000 operations are largely dependent upon the Company’s ability to achieve its sales and gross profit objectives for its currently existing products and new products to be launched in 2000. Achievement of these objectives is subject to various risk factors related to, among other things: incremental sales resulting from expansion of distribution capabilities; the Company’s ability to deploy its courseware over the Internet and corporate intranets; the Company’s ability to control costs in relation to future revenues, the acceptance of the Company’s new CBT courseware management system and the Company’s ability to raise capital. If the Company is unable to meet these objectives, it will consider expansion of existing or development of alternative sources of bank financing; the curtailment of certain capital expenditures and discretionary expenditures (such as travel, consulting and salaries); and various other courses of action, including the possible sale of the Company.

ITEM 5. Other Information
On May 23, 2000, the Company received notification from the Nasdaq National Stock Market, Inc. that based on its Form 10-QSB filed for the period ended March 31, 2000, the Company no longer met the minimum $4 million net tangible asset requirement for continued listing on the Nasdaq National Market under Maintenance Standard 1 as set forth in Marketplace Rule 4450(a)(3). In accordance with the requirements of the May 23, 2000 notification from Nasdaq, the Company submitted on June 7, 2000, its specific plan to achieve and sustain compliance with all Nasdaq National Market listing requirements.
On July 27, 2000, the Company received notification from the Nasdaq National Stock Market, Inc. that its plan of compliance had been accepted, contingent on the Company demonstrating, based on its Form 10-QSB filing for the period ended June 30, 2000 due to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission by August 14, 2000, compliance with all Nasdaq National Market listing requirements including an increased net tangible assets base of $5 million.
Based on the Company’s Form 10-QSB filing for the period ended June 30, 2000, the Company has not met the minimum $5 million net tangible asset requirement in accordance with the extension granted by Nasdaq on July 27, 2000. As a result of its noncompliance and to avoid immediate delisting, the Company has filed an appeal to the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel pursuant to procedures set forth in the Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4800 Series. Pending the outcome of the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel hearing, the Company’s securities will continue to be listed on the Nasdaq National Market. In the event of an unfavorable decision from the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel, the Company may apply to list its securities on the Nasdaq SmallCap Market.
16
Under the terms of the July 27, 2000 extension granted by Nasdaq, the Company was required to maintain a net tangible asset base of $5,000,000 as of the filing of its Form 10-QSB for the period ended June 30, 2000. Based on the Company’s Form 10-QSB filing for the period ended June 30, 2000, the Company’s net tangible assets were $1,503,000, resulting in a shortfall of $3,497,000. Although the Company intended to comply with the requirements of the extension, it was unable to meet those requirements for the following reasons: (i) the Company was unable to close a sale transaction by June 30, 2000 on the sale of its AdminSTAR™ product line; (ii) the Company’s negative operating performance for the three months ended June 30, 2000 further deteriorated its net tangible asset base; (iii) the Company was unable to solicit favorable response from its convertible debt holders to convert their debt into equity; (iv) the Company was unable to raise additional equity capital. As such, the Company will pursue, through the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel, an additional extension of time to meet the minimum net tangible asset requirement for continued listing on the Nasdaq National Market, however there are no assurances that the Company will be successful.
