ITEM 5: OTHER EVENTS
In the second quarter of 1998, the Company acquired all of the outstanding
capital stock of Intermart Systems K.K. ("Intermart"). Total consideration paid
was $8 million, consisting of $4.9 million in cash and 46,551 shares of common
stock, plus up to an additional $4 million in common stock if certain
performance criteria are met during the year ended April 30, 1999. During the
second quarter of 1998, the Company also acquired all of the outstanding capital
stock of Intellicard Systems Pte. Ltd. ("ICS") for total consideration of $18.4
million, consisting of $14.9 million in cash and 61,185 shares of common stock.
In connection with these acquisitions, the Company originally allocated
approximately $5.9 million to in-process research and development projects.
The Company has taken the initiative to conform its accounting for these
acquisition-related in-process research and development charges in response to
recent Securities and Exchange Commission interpretative guidelines.
Accordingly, the Company has reduced this charge to $3.1 million from the $5.9
million charge it recorded in the second quarter of 1998 to reflect the
acquisitions of Intermart and ICS. The $2.8 million reduction in the value of
the in-process technology, will be capitalized as goodwill and amortized over
its estimated useful life of six years.
The effect of the restatement on the Company's historical unaudited interim
consolidated statements of operations previously reported is as follows (in
thousands, except per share data):
