(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (a) Interim Financial Information The consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto are unaudited and have been prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, such unaudited financial statements include all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the information set forth therein. (b) Significant Accounting Policies A description of the Company's significant accounting policies can be found in the footnotes to the Company's 1995 annual consolidated financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-KSB dated March 29, 1996. The accompanying consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with those footnotes. (c) Net Income (Loss) Per Share Net income (loss) per share is based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock and common stock equivalents outstanding for each period. During periods of net loss, common stock equivalents are not included in weighted average shares outstanding. (d) Supplemental Cash Flow Information In April 1996, the Company issued 14,249 shares of common stock valued at $160,728 to the selling shareholders of Universal Document Management Systems, Inc. ("UDMS") in satisfaction for contingent consideration earned from the period December 14, 1995 to December 31, 1995 in accordance with the UDMS acquisition agreements. As this was a non-cash transaction, it has not been presented in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. (e) Reclassifications Certain reclassifications have been made to the consolidated financial statements for 1995 to conform to the current year presentation. (3) Acquisition of FutureCORE Effective June 28, 1996, the Company acquired all of the assets of FutureCORE, Ltd. ("FutureCORE"), a hospital, laboratory and physician services consulting firm. The acquisition has been accounted for under the purchase method, and the financial position and results of operations of FutureCORE have been included in the Company's consolidated financial statements since the date of the acquisition. The total consideration paid for these assets consisted of cash of $61,250. The asset purchase agreement also provides for additional consideration contingent upon the future net revenue and contribution margin performance of FutureCORE as it relates to its backlog as of June 28, 1996. The purchase price for FutureCORE has been allocated to the identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired based on their fair market value. The additional contingent consideration, if earned, would be accounted for as an additional cost of the acquisition. (4) Commitments and Contingency (a) Commitment The Company signed a letter of agreement with a software company ("software company"), dated July 12, 1996, in which the Company, on or before January 31, 1997, agreed to either (a) pay $1.65 million to the software company in return for 75% of the common shares of the software company, or (b) secure a funding commitment for the software company's operations in the amount of $1.65 million from investors and/or lenders. In the event the Company secures a funding commitment from investors and/or lenders, then the software company will grant the Company the option to purchase 75% of the common shares of the software company. The Company's option would be immediately exercisable and remain in effect until December 31, 1999. Under the agreement, the Company will fund the operations of the software company until funding has begun under either option discussed in the preceding paragraph. If the Company pays the software company $1.65 million for the common shares, then such purchase price will be reduced by any funds previously paid to the software company to fund its operations plus interest. If the Company secures funding for the software company from investors and/or lenders for $1.65 million, then upon the software company's receipt of such funding, it will immediately reimburse the Company for any funds previously paid to it plus interest. Interest will be equal to the prime rate announced by the Company's primary bank lender plus 1% per annum. The Company had advanced approximately $108,000 to the software company under this agreement as of September 30, 1996. The Company has also provided a corporate guarantee to a leasing company under which the Company has guaranteed the payments due by the software company under certain lease agreements for equipment and furniture. The amounts due under the leases, which terminate in 1999 and 2001, are approximately $135,000. The software company provides software, education and services to corporations that are implementing object-oriented systems in the design and redesign of their business processes. (b) Litigation In 1995, a former supplier filed a complaint against the Company alleging breach of contract and trade libel. The Company then filed a counterclaim against the supplier in January of 1996. The Company and the supplier reached a settlement agreement under which the Company paid the supplier approximately $28,000 and wrote off approximately $26,000 in amounts due from the supplier. An agreed order of dismissal was entered in September of 1996 which dismissed the supplier's complaint and the Company's counterclaim. Item No. 2 -- Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Net revenues for the third quarter were a record $2,806,479, an increase of $209,596 or 8% over the $2,596,883 reported for the comparable period in 1995. For the nine months ended September 30, 1996, net revenues were also a record at $7,902,784, an increase of $1,503,539 or 23% over the $6,399,245 reported for the comparable period in 1995. The increase in net revenues for both periods is primarily a result of revenues from the ChartMaxx and Step 2000 products which the Company did not begin selling until the third and fourth quarters of 1995, respectively. The Company completed the installation of its fourth ChartMaxx system in the third quarter of 1996. Operating expenses for the third quarter of 1996 were $2,135,466 compared to $1,379,716 for 1995, an increase of 55%. Operating expenses were $5,695,588 and $3,823,896, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995, an increase of 49%. The increase is a result of an increase in personnel from 61 to 106 over the past twelve months. The personnel increase related to additional employees in the areas of sales, marketing, product development, customer support, administration and the Company's new subsidiaries, Universal Document Management Systems and FutureCORE. Substantial expenditures have also been made in the current year to increase market awareness of the Company's products, especially the commercial release of the new ChartMaxx system. The Company also recorded a $54,000 charge associated with the settlement of a lawsuit by a former supplier in the third quarter. The Company's net loss for the third quarter of 1996 was $676,948 compared to net income in 1995 of $33,376. For the nine months ended September 30, 1996, the net loss was $1,336,762 compared to a net loss of $53,480 for the comparable period in 1995. The net losses are a result of the increased operating expenses discussed in the preceding paragraph. The Company's net operating loss carryforwards for Federal income tax purposes at September 30, 1996 are estimated to be approximately $3,035,000. These carryforwards are available to offset Federal taxable income, if any, through 2011. The weighted average shares outstanding for the three months ended September 30, 1996 were 5,913,749 as compared to 4,827,298 for the comparable period in 1995. Weighted average shares outstanding increased primarily due to the issuance of an additional 900,000 shares of stock in the Company's secondary offering in November of 1995, and the exercise by underwriters of warrants to purchase a total of 110,000 shares of common stock during August and September of 1995 and May of 1996. The Company signed a letter of agreement with a software company ("software company"), dated July 12, 1996, in which the Company, on or before January 31, 1997, agreed to either (a) pay $1.65 million to the software company in return for 75% of the common shares of the software company, or (b) secure a funding commitment for the software company's operations in the amount of $1.65 million from investors and/or lenders. In the event the Company secures a funding commitment from investors and/or lenders, then the software company will grant the Company the option to purchase 75% of the common shares of the software company. The Company's option would be immediately exercisable and remain in effect until December 31, 1999. Under the agreement, the Company will fund the operations of the software company until funding has begun under either option discussed in the preceding paragraph. If the Company pays the software company $1.65 million for the common shares, then such purchase price will be reduced by any funds previously paid to the software company to fund its operations plus interest. If the Company secures funding for the software company from investors and/or lenders for $1.65 million, then upon the software company's receipt of such funding, it will immediately reimburse the Company for any funds previously paid to it plus interest. Interest will be equal to the prime rate announced by the Company's primary bank lender plus 1% per annum. The Company had advanced approximately $108,000 to the software company under this agreement as of September 30, 1996. The software company provides software, education and services to corporations that are implementing object-oriented systems in the design and redesign of their business processes. The Company has also provided a corporate guarantee to a leasing company under which the Company has guaranteed the payments due by the software company under certain lease agreements for equipment and furniture. The amounts due under the leases, which terminate in 1999 and 2001, are approximately $135,000. PART II. OTHER INFORMATION Item 1. Legal Proceeding In 1995, a former supplier filed a complaint against the Company alleging breach of contract and trade libel. The Company then filed a counterclaim against the supplier in January of 1996. The Company and the supplier reached a settlement agreement under which the Company paid the supplier approximately $28,000 and wrote off approximately $26,000 in amounts due from the supplier. An agreed order of dismissal was entered in September of 1996 which dismissed the supplier's complaint and the Company's counterclaim. Items 2-4. None Item 5.
