Page 6 of 9 Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION (Third Quarter Ended September 30, 1999) RESULTS OF OPERATIONS NET SALES. The Company's net sales for the third quarter ended September 30, 1999 were $2,364,000, an increase of 6%, compared to net sales of $2,226,000 for the third quarter of 1998. For the nine months ended September 30, 1999, net sales were $6,955,000, an increase of 3% compared to net sales of $6,752,000 for the first nine months of 1998. Revenue from the sale of sign cards used with the Impulse Retail System and SIGNright system decreased by 15% over the first nine months of 1998. Stylus software sales increased by 100% between the first nine months of 1998 and the first nine months of 1999. Revenue from the POPS program increased 450% between the first nine months of 1998 and the first nine months of 1999. Printing revenues and machine revenues remained relatively flat between the first nine months of 1999 and the first nine months of 1998. GROSS PROFIT. The Company's gross profit for the third quarter of 1999 increased 3% to $1,187,000, compared to $1,157,000 for the third quarter of 1998. Gross profit for the first nine months of 1999 increased 8% to $3,486,000, compared to $3,240,000 for the first nine months of 1998. The increase in gross profit for both the third quarter of 1999 and for the first nine months of 1999 is primarily due to the overall mix of products being sold. OPERATING EXPENSES. Operating expenses decreased 2% in the third quarter of 1999 compared to the third quarter of 1998. Sales expenses decreased 26% in the third quarter of 1999, compared to the third quarter of 1998. This decrease was due primarily to the reduction in personnel in the Stylus product area. Marketing expenses increased 6% in the third quarter of 1999, compared to the third quarter of 1998. Product development expenses went from $108,000 for the third quarter of 1998 to $0 for the third quarter of 1999. General and administrative expenses decreased 16% for the third quarter of 1999, compared to the third quarter of 1998. This decrease was due primarily to a reduction in rent and operating expenses as a result of the Company's move to a new location with a 43% reduction in square footage. POPS program expenses increased 54% from the third quarter of 1999 from the third quarter of 1998 which reflects the continued investment in both personnel and other programs for the POPS product. Sales expenses decreased 35% during the first nine months of 1999, compared to the first nine months of 1998, again resulting mostly from a reduction in Stylus product personnel. Marketing expenses decreased 21% for the first nine months of 1999, compared to the first nine months of 1998. Product development expenses were $341,000 for the first nine months of 1998, compared to $0 for the first nine months of 1999. General and Administrative expenses decreased 13% for the first nine months of 1999, compared to the first nine months of 1998, again resulting mostly from the reduction in rent and operating costs. POPS expenses increased 58% for the first nine months of 1999 compared to the first nine months of 1998. Page 7 of 9 Operating expenses for the first nine months of 1999 decreased 19%, compared to the first nine months of 1998. Operating expenses as a percentage of net sales were 66% in the third quarter of 1999 and 65% for the first nine months of 1999, compared to 72% in the third quarter of 1998 and 83% for the first nine months of 1998. The decrease as a percentage of net sales in 1999 was primarily due to the result of the corporate restructuring which occurred in 1998. NET INCOME (LOSS). The Company had a net loss of $(390,000), or $(.04) per share for the third quarter of 1999, compared to a net loss of $(445,000), or $(.05) per share for the third quarter of 1998. For the first nine months of 1999, the net loss was $(1,049,000), or $(.12) per share, compared to a net loss of $(2,420,000), or $(.32) per share for the first nine months of 1998. The decrease in net loss for the first nine months of 1999, compared to the net loss for the first nine months of 1998 resulted primarily from the decrease in operating expenses of more than $1,100,000, while gross profit increased more than $200,000 for the same period. A slight decrease in the net loss for the third quarter of 1999, compared to the third quarter of 1998 was due primarily to an increase in sales while operating expenses remained flat. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES At September 30, 1999, working capital was $1,993,000, compared to $2,232,000 at December 31, 1998. Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities increased from $0 at December 31, 1998 to $1,329,000 at September 30, 1999, primarily due to the proceeds received from the issuance of common stock and the sale of marketable securities and the proceeds from the line of credit, offset by the net operating loss and the purchase of property and equipment. The Company anticipates that its working capital needs will continue to increase due to the expected growth of the business, however, the Company believes that it will have sufficient capital resources to fund its current business operations and anticipated growth for the foreseeable future.
