Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
1. Organization and Nature of Business
Description of Business and Operations
Global TeleMedia International, Inc. f/k/a Phoenix Advanced Technology, Inc.
(the "Company" or "GTMI") was incorporated in the State of Florida in December
1984. The Company is primarily engaged in the marketing of information and
telecommunications services, which include but are not limited to residential
and commercial long distance, prepaid calling cards, interactive voice mail
and other enhanced voice recognition services. The Company primarily
utilitizes independent representatives to market its long distance service to
residential and small business subscribers, throughout the United States.
Since providing these services, the Company has utilized network switching and
transmissions facilities provided by other companies, however, the Company is
in process of implementing a Nationwide Enhanced Services Platform called
"Workhorse". Workhorse will enable the Company to offer many of its
information and telecommunication services directly to its customers instead
of outsourcing these services as well as introducing new services.
While implementing Workhorse, the Company is in the process of being licensed
as a certified telecommunications carrier. At present, the Company is
authorized to act as a certified telecommunications carrier in 30 states, is
pending approval in 7 states, and is preparing to file for approval in the
remaining states during the third quarter. Additionally, the Company has
obtained its FCC Interstate license and FCC 214 International Tariff. Carrier
status allows the Company to deal directly with its underlying carriers and
will allow the Company to provide better service to its customers at a lower
cost to the Company. In the past the Company was required to process its
provisioning and billing for the customers of the telecommunications
subsidiaries through such providers who were unable to provide service in a
satisfactory or timely fashion.
The Company anticipates that it will acquire carrier status by late third
quarter 1996. However, there can be no assurances to this effect. Until the
Company acquires carrier status, the Company will act as a marketing agent for
a variety of long distance service providers for which it is compensated on a
monthly basis for total billable minutes carried by the specific provider.
Additionally, in the event that the Company reaches its targeted carrier
status, the Company intends to enter into agreements with various underlying
carriers. These agreements are typically for terms ranging from one to three
years and are typically renewable for like terms. Such agreements would
provide the Company with access to inter-exchange networks at rates which are
typically discounted and vary with monthly traffic generated on each network.
Such agreements will likely obligate the Company to guarantee certain minimum
monthly usage commitments. Payment terms typically range from net 15 days to
net 45 days.
The Company also licenses certain nutritional products which the Company
expects to provide a nominal amount of revenue.
Marketing Activities
While the Company has greatly expanded its telecommunications personnel
capabilities, its core strength is still its unique marketing skills. The
Company's business plan is three pronged. The first is through internal
growth led by its network marketing channel, Vision 21. The second prong is
its direct agency program, which segues into its third prong, an aggressive
mergers and acquisitions program. The Company believes that in the
telecommunications industry, especially the second tier, there exists a strong
consolidation opportunity. The full deployment of the Company's nationwide
switching network will establish the Company as a reliable wholesale carrier
as well as a premier enhanced service provider. This status opens up an
additional marketing channel previously unavailable to the Company, the
wholesale carrier business.
The Company's long distance service is sold primarily by independent
representatives located throughout the United States under the Company's
wholly owned subsidiary, Vision 21. Vision 21 markets the Company's products
and services via network marketing through Independent Communications
Representatives (ICRs), Qualified Communications Representatives (QCRs), and
Field Instructors (FIs). The Company believes that this method of distribution
to the marketplace is effective in both building and retaining customer
loyalty due to the fact that customers are acquired by "relationship selling"
whereby customers acquired are generally from the independent agent's "warm
market" or immediate center of influence (i.e., friends, relatives, etc.).
Further, the Company recognizes that this is an efficient and cost-effective
method of acquiring marketshare. The Company relies strongly on this
"relationship selling" method of acquiring customers, and therefore, it is
not subjected to significant advertising costs and overhead for salaries and
related expenses.
Additionally, the Company markets through its direct agency network.
Individuals and companies either with or without telecommunications experience
go to the marketplace through the Company's personally customized products and
services. These independent agencies provide the Company with a patchwork
quilt of conventional and non-conventional marketing niches. The Company not
only gains penetration in areas it may or may not have identified internally,
but also benefits by orchestrating this large sales force at no direct
marketing cost to the Company. Each agency funds their own business and
marketing plan and the Company's responsibility lies in the areas of
administrative support.
The Company has created sales and marketing literature and merchandise that
educates the sales agents about the programs and products the Company offers.
The Company's literature and merchandise also aid the agents in recruiting
customers and other agents. The sales agents may purchase the literature and
merchandise to aid them in their sales efforts. These literature sales to
agents additionally serve as a revenue source for the Company.
Interim Information
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include
the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All
intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial
information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and Rule 10-01 of
Regulation S-X promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Such
financial statements do not include all disclosures required by generally
accepted accounting principles for annual financial statement reporting
purposes. However, there has been no material change in the information
disclosed in the consolidated financial statements included in the Company's
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1995, except as disclosed herein.
Accordingly, the information contained herein should be read in conjunction
with the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures contained
in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1995. The
accompanying financial statements reflect, in the opinion of management, all
adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair
presentation of the interim periods presented.
The periods presented are the three and six months ended June 30, 1996 and
1995, respectively. Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior
year financial statements to conform to the current year presentation.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For financial reporting purposes, cash and cash equivalents includes cash on
hand and highly liquid money market investments.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment, including items financed through capital leases, are
recorded at cost, and depreciated using the straight-line method over the
estimated useful lives of the assets, commencing when the assets are installed
or placed in service. The estimated useful lives are ten years for furniture
and fixtures, seven years for office equipment, and five years for computer
equipment. The cost of installed equipment includes expenditures for
installation. Assets recorded under capital leases and leasehold improvements
are amortized over the shorter of their useful lives or the term of the
related lease.
Inventory
Inventory consists of promotional and training materials used in the Vision 21
marketing program.
Stock-Based Compensation
In October 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards issued SFAS 123
"Accounting for Stock Based Compensation," which the Company elected to adopt
as of January 1, 1995. Under SFAS 123, the Company recognizes compensation
expense for all stock-based compensation, using a fair value methodology.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109
"Accounting for Income Taxes" which requires that deferred income tax expenses
be provided based upon estimated future tax effects of differences between the
carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes
and the amounts used for income tax purposes calculated based upon provisions
of enacted tax laws.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that effect the reported amounts of assets,
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Net Loss Per Share
Net loss per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding during each period. Common stock equivalents include stock
appreciation and warrants. For 1996 and 1995, common stock equivalents were
not considered in the calculation of net loss per share as they were
anti-dilutive.
3. Other Current Assets
Other current assets consist of the following at June 30, 1996:
[S] [C]
Deposit for purchase of building................................... $ 100,000
Prepaid debt financing, net of accumulated amortization............ 100,685
Prepaid consulting (through issuance of stock)..................... 37,000
Other miscellaneous deposits....................................... 25,576
---------
$ 263,261
=========
4. Notes Payable
Notes payable consist of the following at June 30, 1996:
[S] [C]
Current:
18 % note payable, due on demand.................................. $ 273,468
Various floating rate notes, due on demand........................ 250,000
8% convertible debentures, due 1997............................... 1,000,000
----------
$1,523,468
==========
[S] [C]
Long-term:
10% convertible debentures, due 1998............................. $ 250,000
===========
On April 3, 1996, the Company sold $2,500,000 of 10% convertible debentures to
a group of investors, of which $250,000 has been received to date. The
convertible debentures are payable in full two years from the date of sale.
Holders of the convertible debentures may convert principal and accrued
interest all or in part into Common Stock after April 1996.
On April 11, 1996 the Company entered into a letter of intent with CAM-NET
Communications Network, Inc. (CAM-NET), whereby CAM-NET agrees to make a
tender offer for the Company's common stock if certain performance conditions
are met. The letter of intent is subject to final negotiations and approval
of the companies board of directors and the Company's shareholders. During
April, 1996 the Company sold $250,000 of various floating rate notes to
CAM-NET Communications. These notes are payable on demand and have been
secured by the Company's rights under a long distance service agreement
entered into in the prior year.
On June 14, 1996, the Company sold $1,000,000 of 8% convertible debentures to
a group of investors. The convertible debentures are payable in full one year
from the date of sale and may be paid in cash or in common stock. Holders of
the convertible debentures may convert principal and accrued interest all or
in part after 45 days from funding.
5. Due to stockholder
Due to stockholders include an 18% note for $50,000 and an 18% note for
$10,000, both of these notes are due on demand. None of the foregoing
stockholders have sufficient management influences to be characterized as
"related parties."
6. Fair value of financial Instruments
Certain note payables and due to stockholders amounts are due on demand;
however the Company does not have the funds needed to settle these amounts
currently. As a result, the Company is unable to estimate the timing and
ultimate form of their settlement. It is believed that if the current holders
were to sell such instruments to other parties, the sales price would be
substantially less that the carrying value.
7. Leases
The Company leases certain office equipment and office space under operating
leases. The Company's office space lease contains a provision to acquire
title to the building or upon exercise of a provision to extend the lease for
another six months. The monthly lease payment is $12,500 and the Company has
extended the lease and the closing on the purchase to August 31, 1996. The
purchase price noted in the purchase agreement is $2,500,000.
The Company has also entered into a capital lease agreement for certain
equipment. Short term capital lease obligations equaled $6,116 while long
term capital lease obligations equaled $27,855 at June 30, 1995.
8. License Agreement
On January 23, 1995 the Company licensed its former food products business,
sold the inventory and assigned the rights to the distribution network used in
the sale of the products. The contract provides for various royalties based
on type of sale and product. The agreement also has provisions for minimum
quarterly royalties beginning the third quarter of 1995 and continuing for
seven quarters. During the first quarter of 1995, the Company recognized the
initial $275,000 license fee as all the initial services required under the
terms of the agreement were performed.
9. Foreclosure Loss
In connection with an agreement to sell restricted stock, the Company entered
into a loan agreement with the potential investor. The loan was secured by
the Company's list of customers on a certain long-distance carrier and certain
other assets. The loan agreement required the Company to maintain its NASDAQ
listing until the closing of the stock sale agreement. Prior to the closing
date, the Company was delisted from NASDAQ and was, therefore, in default of
the loan agreement. As part of the foreclosure proceedings, the Company
agreed to transfer all the shares of stock of its subsidiary, Global
TeleMedia, Inc. In addition, the Company transferred certain other assets not
included among the assets of the subsidiary but which were also pledged as
security.
Included in the consolidated statement of loss are the operating results of a
foreclosed subsidiary (which are substantially all revenues of the Company)
for period January 1, through June 30, 1995 as follows:
1995
[S] [C]
Sales $ 2,747,678
Costs and expenses (4,323,413)
-------------
Loss from operating $ (1,575,735)
=============
Since the Company remains in the business of marketing long distance telephone
services, the foregoing does not qualify as the disposal of a business segment.
In connection with the foreclosure of its interest in the subsidiary, the
acquiring entity made a claim that the Company did not transfer all the assets
required under the terms of the security agreement. Subsequent to December
31, 1995, the parties reached a tentative settlement of approximately $100,000.
However, the final settlement has not been approved by the parties as the
Internal Revenue Service placed a levy on any payments from the Company to the
acquiring entity as a result of the acquiring entities failure to pay payroll
tax liabilities. Due to the uncertainty of the ultimate outcome, no amounts
have been provided for in the Company's consolidated financial statements as
of June 30, 1996.
10. Corporate Readjustment
In view of significant changes in the Company's marketing and other operating
practices, and its management, the Board of Directors of the parent and its
wholly-owned subsidiaries approved at a special meeting on April 12, 1996 a
corporate readjustment of stockholders' equity accounts as of October 1, 1995,
effected in accordance with accounting principles applicable to
quasi-reorganizations. Under Florida law (the state of incorporation of the
parent), this action does not require shareholder approval. The adjustment
was effected by offsetting the accumulated deficit as of September 30, 1995,
of $13,188,000 against additional paid-in capital.
Because the carrying amounts of the Company's assets and liabilities
approximate their fair or net realizable values, no further valuation
adjustments were necessary in connection with the readjustment.
11. Commitments
The Company has employment agreements with certain officers and key employees,
which expire at various times through 2000.
The Company has sold or granted warrants to acquire common stock at various
times and under various agreements at prices that approximated or exceeded
fair value of the date of issue. These warrants range in exercise prices from
$1.25 to $3.75.
The Company's long distance and marketing activities are subject to certain
federal and state regulations. The Company is involved in various regulatory
matters as well as lawsuits incidental to its business. In the opinion of
management, these regulatory matters and lawsuits in the aggregate will not
have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position or the
results of operations of future periods.
12. Subsequent Events
On July 15, 1996, the Company executed an agreement to purchase for
approximately $2.6 million, equipment necessary for the Company's nationwide
Enhanced Services Platform. The Company plans to complete the first phase of
implementation during the forth quarter with the second phase scheduled for
completion during 1997.
On July 31, 1996, the Company received $1 million from a group of investors
and signed an agreement to receive an additional $4 to $9 million at the
Company's option. In exchange for this funding, the Company will issue
convertible debentures which if not converted, are payable in full in common
stock, two years from the date of sale. Holders of the convertible debentures
may convert principal and accrued interest after 45 days from funding.
PART I. Financial Information
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations
FINANCIAL POSITION
The Company's cash and cash equivalents increased $284,937 during the six
months ended June 30, 1996. Principal sources of funds consisted of (i)
borrowings on notes payable ($1,500,000) and (ii) proceeds from the issuance
of common stock ($368,728). The primary uses of funds consisted of (i)
operating activities ($1,540,205) and (ii) costs associated with additions to
property and equipment ($43,589).
During the second quarter, the Company developed a new marketing video and
improved various marketing literature and merchandise for the Vision 21
independent representatives. Based on the Company's positive feedback on
these new products, inventories of these items were increased during the end
of the second quarter. This resulted in an increase in inventory of $52,144.
The increase in other assets primarily reflect (i) a $100,000 deposit for the
Company's office space, which will be applied to the down payment when the
Company exercises its option to purchase the building and (ii) capitalization
of $100,000 of debt financing costs associated with the issuance of a
$1,000,000, 8% convertible debenture.
The increase in accounts payable reflects the Company's ability to effectively
manage its working capital.
The increase in notes payable and accrued interest represents the issuance of
various demand notes and convertible debentures totaling $1,500,000. During
the six months ended June 30, 1996, the Company received $368,728 from the
issuance of common stock. The majority of these proceeds were received from
the conversion of various warrants at prices ranging from $.50 to $1.25 per
share. These funds have been used for working capital purposes and for
improvement of the Company's liquidity position as of June 30, 1996.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company has incurred losses from operations since its inception. These
losses and the acquisition of products, property, equipment, patent rights and
other companies has been funded almost exclusively through the sale of common
stock, warrants and limited partnership units (which were sold during its
start-up period, prior to its initial public offering and later converted
into Company common stock).
While its operating and development expenses have exceeded operating revenues
since the commencement of its telecommunication business, Management of the
Company has taken various steps for long term growth, profitability, and
increase shareholder value. Although the implementation of any program has
been adversely impacted through June 30, 1996 by the lack of capital resources
and liquidity, Management is seeking to elevate itself to carrier status which
should increase margins with little additional expenditures. In addition, on
July 31, 1996, the Company signed an agreement to provide additional funding
of up to $10,000,000. In the event the Company completes this funding,
Management believes the Company will have adequate capital resources for
implementing its long term strategic plan which includes implementing a
Nationwide Enhanced Services Platform, entering into strategic alliances with
complimentary companies offering unique technologies, and aggressively
pursuing certain acquisitions which will improve the Company's long term
growth and profitability. However, there can be no assurances that such
funding will be completed or that the business of the Company will ever
achieve profitable operations.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The Company seeks to manage its business to enhance long-term growth and
shareholder value. The Company also seeks to utilize financial leverage and
cash flow generated from operations to support capital expenditures and
possible future acquisitions. The Company intends to be an acquirer of new
technologies that would (i) result in an acceptable rate of return on such
long term investments and (ii) provide adequate opportunity to effectively
implement the Company's operating strategies.
Operating (loss)
The decrease in communication and marketing services and total operating
expenses for the six months ended June 30, 1996 compared to the prior year,
resulted primarily from the foreclosure loss of the Company's previously owned
subsidiary. In the prior year, this subsidiary represented substantially all
the revenues and expenses of the Company. Subsequent to this foreclosure, the
Company has been actively attempting to expand its customer base through
promotional activities and new product development.
Communication and marketing service expenses as a percentage of communication
and marketing service revenue were 81.7% compared to 79.0% for the six months
ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. This increase in expenses as a
percentage of revenue is primarily due to the decrease in monthly minute
volume which results in higher long distance carrier charges. The Company
anticipates an improvement in these ratios as additional volume is generated
through internal growth and customer base acquisitions.
The increase in costs of products sold reflects the costs associated with the
development of a new marketing video and improvement of various marketing
literature and merchandise for the Vision 21 independent representatives. The
Company has elected to expense the design and development costs associated
with producing these new products as there can be no assurance that these
costs will be recovered from the sale of these items.
General and administrative costs decreased $523,861 for the six months ended
June 30, 1996 compared to the same period in the prior year, as the Company
has been effectively monitoring its overhead costs during the development of
its new customer base.
Other income (expenses)
On January 28, 1995 the Company entered into a license agreement with L&M
Group, Inc. under which L&M purchased the Company's inventory of the food and
nutritional products sold by the Company at the Company's cost and received
from the Company the exclusive right to sell those products world-wide. In
consideration of the license granted by the Company, L&M paid the Company cash
in the amount of $275,000 for the rights to distribute and market these
products. This one time fee was recorded as other income during the six months
ended June 30, 1995. Royalty income received during the six months ended June
30, 1996 totaled $18,750.
Interest expense increase for the six months ended June 30, 1996 compared to
1995 due to increases in notes payable.
PART II
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
On May 8, 1996, an action was filed in the United States District Court,
Northern District of Oklahoma against the Company by Worldcom Network
Services, Inc., d/b/a WilTel alleging breach of contract. On July 23, 1996,
a pending settlement has been reached between the parties whereby WilTel will
file a dismissal of the action and GTMI and WilTel will enter into a services
agreement whereby WilTel will provide GTMI with telecommunications services.
On June 8, 1996, an action was filed against the Company in the Superior Court
of Fulton County, Georgia by a former employee, John L. Walsh, alleging breach
of contract. The Company has filed answer, defenses and a counterclaim
against Mr. Walsh for breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, action for
tortuous interference with employment relations and violations of trade
secrets. While the Company can make no assurances as to the outcome, the
Company intends to vigorously defend its position, pursue recovery of its
claim, and anticipates a favorable resolution.
Item 5. Other Information
On July 15, 1996, the Company executed an agreement with IEX Corporation to
purchase for approximately $2.6 million, equipment necessary for the Company's
implementation of a three phased nationwide Enhanced Services Platform,
"Workhorse". The Workhorse Platform will allow the Company to offer in-house
an array of services, including but not limited to; enhanced 800, enhanced
debit card, enhanced travel card, international callback, locator service,
follow me service, and various interactive voice response services. The
underlying software includes a powerful patented rules engine that enables
users to develop unique call processing applications with simple "point and
click" service building tools. This rules engine allows configuration of
specific call processing for specific clients to allow highly customized
services. Service creation tools will enable the user to develop completely
integrated rules that include the special interactive voice recognition
scripts, switching platform logic, and call processing logic to offer a wide
array of enhanced services. The Company believes this integrated service
creation facility is unique in the industry, and will set the standard for
other enhanced telecommunication services. The Company will utilize a portion
of the funding obtained from a group of investors to purchase the Workhorse
Enhanced Services Platform. The Company plans to complete the first phase of
implementation by the end of the third quarter with the second and third
phases scheduled for completion by year end.
On July 31, 1996, the Company received $1 million from a group of investors
and signed an agreement to receive an additional $4 to $9 million at the
Company's option. In exchange for this funding, the Company will issue
convertible debentures which if not converted, are payable in full in common
stock, two years from the date of sale. Holders of the convertible debentures
may convert principal and accrued interest after 45 days from funding.

the investigation, preparation, defense and settlement of

shall fully, cooperate with IEX in connection with the
foregoing. IEX shall have no liability for any claim or
patent or copyright infringement to the extent such claim:

provision will be deemed restated to reflect the original intentions
of the parties as nearly as possible in accordance with applicable
law, and, if capable of substantial performance, the remaining
provisions of this Agreement will be enforced as if this Agreement
was entered into without the invalid provision.
(f) In the event attorneys' fees or other out-of-pocket costs are
incurred to secure performance of any of the obligations herein
provided for, or to establish damages for the breach thereof, or
to obtain any other appropriate relief, the prevailing party will
be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys' fees and out-of-
pocket costs incurred therein.
(g) This Agreement may be modified only by a written instrument
duly executed by or on behalf of each party hereto. No delay or
omission by either party hereto to exercise any right or power
hereunder will impair such right or power or be construed to be a
waiver thereof. A waiver by either of the parties hereto of any of
the obligations to be performed by the other or any breach thereof
will not be construed to be a waiver of any succeeding breach
thereof or of any other obligation herein contained.
(h) The laws of the State of Texas will govern all questions
concerning the construction, validity and interpretation of this
Agreement and the performance of the obligations imposed by
this Agreement.
(i) Any controversy, claim or dispute between the parties relating to
