NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Balance sheet information as of January 31, 1996 was
derived from the Company's audited consolidated financial
statements. All other information is unaudited, but in the
opinion of management, includes all adjustments (consisting
only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present
fairly the results of the interim period. The results of
operations for the quarter ended April 30, 1996 are not
necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the
entire year.
This report on form 10-Q should be read in conjunction
with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements
for the year ended January 31, 1996 and notes thereto
included in the Form 10-K Annual Report previously filed
with the Commission.
2. Inventories consisted of the following:
April 30, 1996 January 31, 1996
(In thousands)
Finished goods $1,265 $1,497
Work-in process 2,375 1,524
Raw materials 2,578 2,477
Less reserves (2,879) (3,454)
---------- ----------
Total inventories $ 3,339 $2,044
=========== ==========
3. Net income (loss) per share was based on the weighted
average common shares and dilutive common share equivalents.
Common equivalent shares were excluded in periods with
losses as they were anti-dilutive.
4. On April 22, 1996, the Company announced an agreement under which
it would acquire Active Design Corporation in a transaction to be
accounted for as a pooling-of-interests. This transaction closed on
May 3, 1996. Active Design is a development stage company which has
not generated any revenues since its inception in May 1995. The
pooling-of-interests method of accounting requires the Company to
report financial results as though the transaction had occurred at
the beginning of all periods presented. Had this transaction occurred
at the beginning of the quarter ended April 30, 1996, the Company's
results would have included Active Design's net loss for the quarter
and merger expenses, resulting in a combined net loss of $104,000
($0.01 per share).
Item 2.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The Company had a net income of $359,000 ($0.04 per share) on net
sales of $8,735,000 for the fiscal quarter ended April 30, 1996
compared to a net loss of $6,687,000 ($0.89 per share) on net
sales of $8,011,000 for the same quarter in the prior year. The
prior year net loss included $3,850,000 reserves related to its
SDIS subsidiary, the operations of which were subsequently
disposed of in that year. Sales of multimedia products represented
100% of net sales as compared with 82% for the same quarter last
year. Sales to one domestic customer accounted for 12% of total
net sales while sales to two international customers accounted for
30% and 15% of total net sales respectively in the quarter ended
April 30, 1996. The Company's international sales represented
21% of net sales in the first quarter of fiscal 1997 as compared
with 68% in the comparable quarter of the prior year. The
decrease in percentage of international sales was due primarily
to stronger market acceptance of the Company's REALmagic
products in the U.S. as compared to Asian markets during this
first fiscal quarter.
On April 22, 1966, the Company announced an agreement under which
it would acquire Active Design Corporation in a transaction to be
accounted for as a pooling-of-interests. This transaction closed
on May 3, 1996. Active Design is a development stage company
which has not generated any revenues since its inception in May
1995. The pooling-of-interests method of accounting requires the
Company to report financial results as though the transaction had
occurred at the beginning of all periods presented. Had this
transaction occurred at the beginning of the quarter ended April
30, 1996, the Company's results would have included Active Design's
net loss for the quarter and merger expenses, resulting in a
combined net loss of $104,000 ($0.01 per share).
The Company's gross margin as a percentage of net sales for
the quarter ended April 30, 1996 increased to 34.0% from -9.8%
(19.5% after excluding $2,350,000 inventory reserves which were
included in the cost of goods sold) reported in the
same period of the prior year. The increase was primarily
due to a change in product mix to chipset sales which have higher
profit margins.
Sales and marketing expenses decreased by $1,232,000 (51.5%)
as compared to the corresponding period of the prior year.
The decrease was due to a decision by the Company to focus
less on the retail channels which require more advertising,
promotion and trade show expenses and more on the OEM channels.
Research and development expenses decreased by $107,000 (10.9%)
as compared to the same period of the prior year. The decrease
was due to the elimination of research and development efforts
on new display systems by SDIS, the Company's former monitor
subsidiary. General and administrative expenses decreased by
$1,750,000 (74.0%) ($250,000 after excluding $1,500,000 accounts
receivable reserves which were included in last year balance) as
compared to the same corresponding period of the prior year. The
decrease in general and administrative costs reflected the
elimination of expenses related to SDIS.
FINANCIAL CONDITION
The Company had cash and short term investments of $14.3 million
at April 30, 1996, as compared with $ 14.8 million at January 31,
1996. The Company's primary sources of funds to date have been
cash generated from operations, proceeds from previous stock
offerings and bank borrowings under lines of credit. The Company
believes that its current cash and short term investments reserve
combined with the availability of funds under its existing cash
and asset-based banking arrangements will be sufficient to satisfy
its needs for the next twelve months. Beyond the next twelve months,
the Company believes that to the extent it does not generate
positive cash flow from operations that it may have to raise
additional capital through either public or private offerings of
its common stock or from additional bank financing.
FACTORS AFFECTING FUTURE OPERATING RESULTS
The Company's quarterly results have been in the past and may be in
the future vary due to a number of factors, including but not limited
to new product introduction by the Company and its competitors;
market acceptance of the Company's products; shift in demand for
the Company's products; gains or losses of significant customers;
reduction in selling prices; inventories obsolescence; an interrupted
or inadequate supply of semiconductor chips; the Company's inability
to protect its intellectual properties or a loss of key personnel.
Any unfavorable change in the foregoing or other factors could have
a material effect on the Company's business, financial and results
of operations.
Due to the factors noted above, the Company's future earnings and
stock price may be subject to significant volatility, particularly
on a quarterly basis. Past financial performance should not be
considered a reliable indicator of future performance and investors
should not use historical trends to anticipate results or trends of
future periods. Any shortfall in revenue or earnings from the level
anticipated by security analysts could have an immediate and
significant adverse effect on the trading price of the Company's
common stock in any given period. Additionally, the Company may
not learn of such shortfall until late in a fiscal quarter, which
could result in even more immediate and adverse effect on the trading
price of the Company's common stock. Further, the Company operates
in a highly dynamic industry which often results in volatility of
the Company's common stock price.
