AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OCTOBER 31, 1999 (Unaudited) 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION --------------------- The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three month period ended October 31, 1999 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending July 31, 2000. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended July 31, 1999. Foreign Currency Translation The financial statements of the Company's foreign subsidiary have been translated into U.S. dollars in accordance with Statement of Financial Standards No. 52, Foreign Currency Translation. All balance sheet amounts have been translated using the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Statement of Operations amounts have been translated using average exchange rates. The gains and losses resulting from the changes in exchange rates from the date of acquisition of Rosch GmbH to October 31, 1999 have been reported separately as a component of stockholders equity. The aggregate transaction gains and losses are insignificant. Comprehensive Income (Loss) Effective August 1, 1998, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income (SFAS 130). SFAS 130 establishes new rules for the reporting and display of comprehensive income or loss and its components, however, the adoption of this statement had no impact on the Company's net income or shareholders' equity. For the three months ended October 31, 1999, the Company's only item of other comprehensive income was the foreign currency translation adjustment recognized in consolidation of its partially-owned German subsidiary, Rosch GmbH. SFAS 130 requires such adjustments, which prior to adoption were reported separately in shareholders' equity, to be included in other comprehensive income. Prior year financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the requirements of SFAS 130. The foreign currency translation adjustment and comprehensive loss for the three months ended October 31, 1999 was $(40,000) and ($160,000), respectively. As of October 31, 1999, the cumulative translation adjustment and accumulated other comprehensive loss was ($240,000). Going Concern The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As shown in the financial statements, the Company has incurred a net loss of $120,000 for the three month period ended October 31, 1999. In addition, the Company incurred a net loss of $9,861,000 for the year ended July 31, 1999. This and other factors indicate that the Company may be unable to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability of assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company's continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate sufficient cash flow to meet its obligations on a timely basis, to obtain additional financing and ultimately to attain profitability. The Company continues to pursue strategies to improve the profitability of its current product lines, and is actively pursuing additional debt and equity financing. 2. DEBT ---- The Company's 50.01% owned German subsidiary, Rosch GmbH Medizitechnik ("Rosch GmbH") has two term loans and two revolving lines of credit with German-based banks. During the three month period ended October 31, 1999, the total outstanding balance under these loans decreased by approximately $564,000 based upon scheduled payments under the term loans and principal repayments under the lines of credit made based upon the Company's cash position. -6- 3. INVESTMENT IN AFFILIATE ----------------------- In September 1999, a minority shareholder of Rosch GmbH acquired an additional 24.99% of Rosch GmbH through two transactions consisting of (1) a capital contribution into Rosch GmbH of approximately $1.6 million, and (2) a direct purchase of a portion of the Company's ownership interest in Rosch GmbH for approximately $1.6 million. These transactions resulted in the recognition of a gain on the sale of Rosch GmbH capital stock of approximately $862,000, and a reduction in the Company's ownership percentage of Rosch GmbH from 75% to 50.01%. As the Company continues to maintain a controlling interest in Rosch GmbH, it continues to consolidate the operations of Rosch GmbH. These transactions resulted the recognition of an increase in the minority interest in the consolidated subsidiary in the amount necessary to bring that interest up to the current minority ownership percentage of 49.99% of Rosch GmbH's net assets as of October 31, 1999, or $1,067,000. This amount includes the minority stockholders' share of Rosch GmbH's net losses for the three month period ended October 31, 1999, which was approximately $113,000. 4. EQUITY ------ During the three month period ended October 31, 1999, the Company closed on a private placement for 133,334 shares of its Common Stock for $100,000, and issued 60,000 shares of its Common Stock, plus a five-year warrant to purchase up to 20,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock at an exercise price of $1.25 per share, as consideration for $75,000 of prior services. These transactions were with "accredited investors", as such term is defined in Regulation D under the Securities Act. 5. YEAR 2000 --------- The Year 2000 Issue is the result of computer programs being written using two digits rather than four to define the applicable year. Any of the Company's computer programs or hardware that have date-sensitive software embedded chips may recognize a date using "00" as the year 1900 rather than the year 2000. This could result in a system failure or miscalculations causing disruptions of operations, including, among other things, a temporary inability to process transactions, send invoices, or engage in similar normal business activities. The Company has completed its plan to resolve the Year 2000 Issue which involved the following four phases: assessment, remediation, testing and implementation. The assessment indicated that most of the Company's significant information technology systems would be affected, including its financial information system which includes its general ledger, accounts payable, billing and inventory systems. The assessment was also undertaken on the Company's products, however, following the sale of the audiometrics assets in April 1999, the Company no longer sells products which utilize software and hardware (embedded chips) which could require remediation to be Year 2000 compliant. Accordingly, the Company does not believe that the Year 2000 presents a material exposure as it relates to the Company's products. The Company's manufacturing processes consist principally of unautomated assembly of components manufactured by outside third-parties. The Company has begun to gather information about the Year 2000 compliance status of its significant suppliers, and will take appropriate steps to monitor their compliance on an ongoing basis. Regarding its information technology exposures, the Company utilizes an unmodified off-the-shelf software package. The Company has purchased and installed a year 2000-compliant upgrade, and is now fully year 2000 compliant with respect to its financial information systems, and as the new software is also an unmodified off-the-shelf package, testing to ensure Year 2000 compliance is not necessary. The Company does not presently maintain direct interfaces with any third-party vendors. The Company has made various queries of its significant suppliers that do not share information systems with the Company (external agents). To date, the Company is not aware of any external agent with a Year 2000 issue that would materially impact the Company's results of operations, liquidity, or capital resources. However, the Company has no means of assuring that external agents will be Year 2000 ready. The inability of external agents to complete their Year 2000 resolution process in a timely fashion could materially impact the Company. The effect of non-compliance by external agents is not determinable. -7- The total cost of the Company's Year 2000 project was approximately $5,000. The project costs consisted principally of the cost of new software, which has been capitalized. Management of the Company believes it has effectively resolved the Year 2000 Issue. However, exposure continues to exist relative to the Company's outside suppliers, which could have a materially adverse effect on its manufacturing and shipping operations. In addition, disruptions in the economy generally resulting from Year 2000 issues could also materially adversely affect the Company. The Company currently has no contingency plans in place in the event of an unforeseen Year 2000 problem. The Company plans to continue to monitor its suppliers, and will develop such a plan if necessary. 6. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS ----------------- Effective November 15, 1999, the Company closed an agreement (the "Fukushima Agreement") with Jim Fukushima, a director and Vice Chairman of the Company, whereby Mr. Fukushima purchased 800,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock, a three-year warrant to purchase up to 300,000 additional shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $2.00 per share and a 5% ownership interest in Rosch GmbH, through a sub-participation contract with Andy Rosch, the general manager of Rosch GmbH, in exchange for a payment of $2 million. The proceeds were used principally for the cash payments described below. This sale resulted in the reduction of the Company's ownership percentage in Rosch GmbH to 45.01%. Effective November 16, 1999, pursuant to an agreement with the holders of the Company's outstanding 1,170 shares of Series B Preferred Stock, the Company redeemed all such outstanding shares, together with all accrued and unpaid dividends, penalties and redemption premiums, in exchange for a payment of $1,170,000 in cash and the issuance of 369,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock. Effective November 17, 1999, pursuant to a Securities Exchange Agreement with the holder of the Company's outstanding Series A Preferred Stock, the Company made a cash payment of $840,000, issued 2,228,312 shares of its Common Stock and issued a Promissory Note and Security Agreement (the "Secured Note") in the principal amount of $1,050,000 in exchange for (i) the conversion 1,350 shares of Series A Preferred Stock and the accrued dividends on all outstanding Series A Preferred Stock, (ii) the redemption of 700 shares of Series A Preferred Stock and (iii) the exchange of 350 shares of Series A Preferred Stock for the Secured Note. The Secured Note is non-interest bearing, due in full on the earlier to occur of (i) five business days of the closing date of the initial public offering in Germany of Rosch GmbH or (ii) April 30, 2000, secured by certain intellectual property rights of the Company, and the principal amount may be reduced to $700,000 if the average closing bid price of the Company's Common Stock for the five trading days prior to maturity exceeds $3.00 per share. Effective November 18, 1999, the Company sold 1,333,333 shares of Common Stock to Concord Effekten AG, a minority stockholder of Rosch GmbH, for a purchase price of $1 million. -8- Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - --------------------- Net sales for the three month period ended October 31, 1999 were $802,000, compared to $2,150,000 for the three month period ended October 31, 1998. The Company's sale of its audiometrics business assets in April 1999 resulted in a decrease in sales of approximately $357,000 as compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year. The remainder of the decrease in sales is attributable to the Company's shift in focus towards its INJEX(TM) needle-free injection system, and away from the intraoral dental camera equipment market. Cost of sales for the three month periods ended October 31, 1999 and October 31, 1998 were 62.6% and 58.7% of net sales, respectively. The decrease is attributable to the continual decline in gross profit margins experienced in the intraoral dental camera equipment market, resulting primarily from increased competition in that marketplace. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three month period ended October 31, 1999 were $1,253,000, compared to $1,922,000 for the comparable prior year period. The decrease reflects the impact of the Company's sale of its audiometrics business assets in April 1999, and cost reduction measures implemented within DDS in anticipation of the sale of that subsidiary. Also contributing to the net decrease was a reduction of approximately $345,000 of amortization expense due primarily to deferred compensation recognized in connection with the acquisitions of DDS and ESI. This deferred compensation was fully amortized during the fiscal year ended July 31, 1999. These decreases in expense were partially offset by increased costs incurred in connection with ESI, and its preparation for full-scale market introduction of the INJEX(TM) System. Net loss for the three month period ended October 31, 1999 was $120,000, compared to a net loss of $1,286,000, for the same period in the prior fiscal year. The decrease in net loss is primarily the result of the $862,000 gain recognized on the partial sale of the Company's ownership in Rosch GmbH. The net loss for the three month period ended October 31, 1999 was also decreased by the sale of the audiometrics business assets in April 1999 and the decreased business activity within the intraoral dental equipment business, both of which resulted in significant losses during the three months ended October 31, 1998. These decreases in the Company's net loss were partially offset by the increased costs incurred in connection with ESI and its preparation for full-scale market introduction of the INJEX(TM) System. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES - ------------------------------- Working capital of the Company at October 31, 1999 was $704,000, compared to $(1,262,000) at July 31, 1999. The increase of $1,966,000 resulted primarily from the proceeds from the sale of a portion of the Company's ownership in Rosch GmbH of approximately $1.6 million and the proceeds from the capital infusion into Rosch GmbH by a minority stockholder of approximately $1.6 million. The increases were partially offset by the net effect of the Company's operating losses. During November 1999, the Company completed certain transactions which had significant impact on its capital structure. All outstanding shares of the Company's Series A and Series B Convertible Preferred Stock were eliminated, via the issuance of a total of 2,597,312 shares of its Common Stock, issuance of a Promissory Note and Security Agreement in the principal amount of $1,050,000, and a cash payment of $2,010,000. The Promissory Note is due in full no later than April 30, 2000. In addition, the Company sold, through two private placements, an aggregate of 2,133,333 shares of its Common Stock, issued a three-year warrant to purchase up to 300,000 shares of its Common Stock at an exercise price of $2.00 per share, and sold a 5% ownership interest in Rosch GmbH, for gross proceeds of $3 million. These transactions had a minimal net impact on working capital, however, by eliminating the Preferred Stock, future working capital requirements for the dividends associated with those shares were eliminated. -9- Though the Company has significantly improved its working capital position, it does not currently have sufficient working capital to sustain the Company through the expected time necessary to achieve positive cash flows from operations. Additional working capital will be needed, and therefore, the Company continues to seek additional capital through equity and/or debt placements or secured financing; however, no assurance can be given that such financing arrangements would be successfully completed immediately and, if so, on terms not dilutive to existing stockholders. The Company's working capital requirements, along with net losses incurred of $9,861,000 for the year ended July 31, 1999 and $120,000 for the three month period ended October 31, 1999, as well as other factors, raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. PART II. - OTHER INFORMATION Item 2. CHANGES IN SECURITIES During the three month period ended October 31, 1999, the Company closed on a private placement for 133,334 shares of its Common Stock for $100,000, and issued 60,000 shares of its Common Stock, plus a five-year warrant to purchase up to 20,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock at an exercise price of $1.25 per share, as consideration for $75,000 of prior services.
