NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
U.S. dollars in thousands, except per share information
(Unaudited)
Note 1 - RESTATEMENT
During the completion of the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 1999, the Company determined that it did not properly
record certain debt and equity transactions.
During 1997, the Company did not properly account for the intrinsic
value of the beneficial conversion feature associated with the
convertible debenture and warrants issued in August 1997 or the
beneficial conversion feature and warrants associated with the
November and December 1997 issuance of the convertible debentures,
Series B convertible preferred shares and warrants.
During 1998, the Company should have recorded $2,535 in deemed
dividends associated with the beneficial conversion feature on the
June 1998 issuance of the Series B convertible preferred shares and
warrants. For the nine months ended September 30, 1998, the Company
decreased other expense to $125 from $152, decreased net loss to
$5,110 from $5,137, increased net loss applicable to common
stockholders to $7,645 from $5,137, and increased basic and diluted
loss per common share to $.30 from $.20.
During January 1999, the Company determined that if did not properly
record the value associated with the issue of stock warrants in
connection with the debt extinquishment. In addition, the Company did
not properly account for the intrinsic value of the beneficial
conversion feature associated with the $600 short-term financing
entered into during the first quarter of 1999.
As a result of the above, the Company has restated the financial
statements contained in the Form 10-Q for the nine months ended
September 30, 1999. For the nine months ended September 30, 1999, the
Company increased interest expense, included in other expense, from
$11 to $611, decreased extraordinary gain on debt extinguishment from
$1,117 to $885, increased net loss to $951 from $119, increased basic
and diluted loss per common share to $.03 from $.01. As of September
30, 1999, the Company increase ordinary shares to $83 from $63,
decreased share premium to $52,542 from $53,130, decreased accumulated
deficit to $52,998 from $53,639, and decreased warrants to $0 from
$73. As of December 31, 1998, the Company decreased share premium to
$50,589 from $52,082 and decreased accumulated deficit to $52,047 from
$53,540.
Note 2 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
of LanguageWare.net (Company) Ltd., and its subsidiaries ("the
5
LANGUAGEWARE.NET (COMPANY) LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
U.S. dollars in thousands, except per share information
(Unaudited)
Company"), have been prepared in accordance with United States
generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial
information. On October 6, 1999, the Company changed its name to
LanguageWare.net (Company) Ltd. from Accent Software International
Ltd. The significant accounting policies, certain financial
information and footnote disclosures which are normally included in
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles, but which are not required for interim
reporting purposes, have been condensed or omitted. In the opinion of
management, all adjustments (consisting of adjustments of a normal,
recurring nature) necessary for a fair presentation of these financial
statements have been reflected in the interim periods presented.
Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30,
1999 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be
expected for the year ending December 31, 1999. Although the Company
believes that the disclosures presented herein are adequate to make
the information presented not misleading, it is suggested that these
condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction
with the audited financial statements and footnotes included in the
Company's 1998 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December
31, 1998.
Note 3 - GOING CONCERN
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the
Company will continue as a going concern. The report of the Company's
Independent Auditors (included in the Company's 1998 Annual Report on
Form 10-K), however, raises doubt about the Company's ability to
continue as a going concern. Management acknowledges that the
Company's history of operating losses and operating cash flow deficits
raises legitimate concern about the Company's longer-term prospects.
To enhance the Company's longer-term prospects, management is (1)
positioning the Company to be able to focus on global Internet e-
commerce solutions, (2) continuing to focus on increasing revenue from
current operations, (3) reducing expenses and (4) obtaining additional
external financing.
To increase revenue, the Company has developed new products to serve
the language information industry, has redirected its operations
toward Internet products and services, entered into alliances with
other companies in the industry aimed at broadening the Company's
market reach and has expanded its translation services business.
Additionally, the Company is in the process of positioning itself to
be able to provide global Internet e-commerce solutions through active
efforts to locate strategic partners and merger candidates.
To reduce expenses, the Company has reduced its staffing level (which
is its largest element of expense) from approximately 170 employees at
its peak in 1996 to 15 at September 30, 1999.
Related expenses such as rent, telephone, travel and training costs
have been reduced proportionately. The shift away from the retail
market has led to reductions in production and inventory carrying
costs. Product development costs have been reduced by closing the
Company's product development facility in Jerusalem, narrowing the
6
LANGUAGEWARE.NET (COMPANY) LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
U.S. dollars in thousands, except per share information
(Unaudited)
number of new products under development and focusing on those
opportunities that provide the greatest near-term revenue potential.
The Company has reduced discretionary spending on advertising and
marketing as well as the amount it spends on exhibitions and trade
shows and has closed its sales offices in London, England, and Newport
Beach, California. The sale in 1998 of the assets of the Company's
subsidiary, AgentSoft, also reduced costs with no decrease in total
revenue.
To obtain additional external financing, the Company sold convertible
debentures and convertible preferred stock in the third and fourth
quarters of 1997 and again in the second quarter of 1998. In the first
quarter of 1999 the Company obtained $600 in the form of a short-term
loan convertible, at the discretion of the lender, into convertible
preferred stock. Effective June 30, 1999, the lender elected to
convert the loan, plus accrued interest, into 2.9 million shares of
Series D convertible Preferred Shares. In July 1999, the Company
entered into an agreement which provides for a group of investors to
purchase, at $0.21 per share, up to 9.5 million shares of the
Company's ordinary shares for $2,000. At closing, the investors paid
$500 for 2.4 million shares, and one of the investors is required to
purchase the remaining 7.1 million shares for $1,500 in the event the
Company obtains a strategic partner and enters into a strategic
alliance with such partner. In October 1999, the Company obtained $100
by executing a convertible promissory note to the investor mentioned
above who may be required to purchase the additional 7.1 million
ordinary shares. The principal balance and unpaid interest thereon is
convertible, at the discretion of the lender, into ordinary shares of
the Company. The Company continues to explore sources of additional
financing to satisfy its continuing operational requirements.
In the first quarter of 1999, an extraordinary gain of $885 was
recognized by the Company related to the extinguishment of $1,180 of
long-term debt, plus $11 of accrued interest, in exchange for the
issuance of a warrant to the lender to receive 2,448,000 shares of the
Company's Ordinary Shares anytime after January 25, 2001, but before
January 25, 2006 (See Note 5).
The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any
adjustments relating to the recoverability or classification of asset
carrying amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that
may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going
concern.
Note 4 - LIQUIDITY
As of September 30, 1999 and December 31, 1998, the Company had
accumulated deficits of $52,998 and $52,047, respectively. For the
nine months ended September 30, 1999, the Company incurred a loss of
$1,836 before the extraordinary gain from debt extinguishment
mentioned above and recognizes that it may continue to incur operating
losses through the remainder of 1999 and possibly beyond. Furthermore,
the Company has not generated sufficient cash to finance its
operations and has been dependent upon external sources to meet its
liquidity requirements.
7
LANGUAGEWARE.NET (COMPANY) LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
U.S. dollars in thousands, except per share information
(Unaudited)
In addition to the cost reduction initiatives completed during the
first quarter of 1999 and the fourth quarter of 1998, the Company will
continue to explore new methods to increase revenues and reduce costs
and working capital requirements. As mentioned above the Company
obtained $600 of short-term financing under a loan agreement it
executed with L&H Investment Company, N.V. ("LHIC") on February 19,
1999. On June 30, 1999, pursuant to the terms of the loan agreement,
the principal of the loan, plus $25 of accrued interest, was converted
into 2,884,874 Series D convertible Preferred Shares of the Company.
Additionally, pursuant to the terms of the loan agreement, the Company
issued to LHIC a warrant to purchase 3.0 million Ordinary Shares of
the Company at a price of $0.269 per share.
Additionally, as mentioned above, in July 1999, the Company entered
into an agreement which provides for a group of three investors to
purchase, at $0.21 per share, up to 9.5 million shares of the
Company's ordinary shares for $2,000. At closing, the investors paid
$500 for 2.4 million shares and one of the investors is required to
purchase for $1,500 the remaining 7.1 million shares in the event the
Company obtains a strategic partner and enters into a strategic
alliance with such partner. As of November 9, 1999, management of the
Company had not obtained a strategic partner acceptable to the
investor and consequently, had not issued the 7.1 million Ordinary
Shares to the investor and had not received from the investor the
remaining $1,500 for such shares. In October 1999, the Company
obtained $100 by executing a convertible promissory note to the
investor mentioned above who may be required to purchase the
additional 7.1 million ordinary shares. The principal balance and
unpaid interest thereon is convertible, at the discretion of the
lender, into ordinary shares of the Company. There can be no assurance
the Company will be able to locate and enter into a definitive
agreement with a strategic partner as required by the agreement, in
which case the Company would not receive from the investor up to
$1,500 in exchange for the issuance to it of 7.1 million of the
Company's Ordinary Shares.
The Company continues to explore sources of additional financing to
satisfy its operational requirements.
Note 5 - SHARE CAPITAL
The Company executed a Preferred Share Purchase Agreement with Lernout
& Hauspie Speech Products, N.V. ("L&H"), an affiliate of LHIC, on June
4, 1998 pursuant to which the Company issued 4,000 Series C
convertible Preferred shares in exchange for $4,000. Fees and expenses
related to the transaction totaled approximately $232 resulting in net
proceeds to the Company of $3,768.
As mentioned above, LHIC was issued 2,884,874 Series D convertible
Preferred Shares upon conversion of amounts due it under a loan
agreement. The Series C and Series D convertible Preferred Shares held
by L&H and LHIC do not pay interest but do provide the investors with
a preference over Ordinary Shareholders in the event of liquidation.
The investors also have the right to vote the shares as if they had
all been converted into Ordinary Shares.
8
LANGUAGEWARE.NET (COMPANY) LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
U.S. dollars in thousands, except per share information
(Unaudited)
The Series D convertible Preferred Shares issued to LHIC are
convertible at any time into 2,884,874 Ordinary Shares of the Company
which would dilute existing shareholders by approximately 8%. The
Series C convertible Preferred Shares issued to L&H also are
convertible at any time into Ordinary Shares of the Company at a
conversion price of $.45 per share. Conversion of all 4,000 Series C
convertible Preferred Shares held by L&H would result in the issuance
of 8,888,889 Ordinary Shares and would dilute existing shareholders by
approximately 22%.
L&H also received warrants to purchase 4,444,444 Ordinary Shares of
the Company at an exercise price of $0.55 per share. The warrants are
exercisable for five years, the conversion of which would dilute
existing shareholders by an additional 12%. The Company has recorded
the beneficial conversion feature in the amount of $445 as original
issued discount on the Series C convertible Preferred shares and is
being amortized as a deemed dividend over the period in which the
holders can first convert the Series C convertible Preferred shares
using the interest method. The Company has recorded the $2,090 value
of the warrants as original issue discount on the Series C convertible
Preferred shares and is being amortized to deemed dividends over the
period in which the holders can first convert the Series C convertible
Preferred shares using the interest method. On June 30, 1999, LHIC
received warrants,also exercisable for five years, to purchase
3,000,000 Ordinary Shares of the Company at an exercise price of
$0.269 per share. Exercise of the warrants would dilute existing
shareholders by an additional 9%.
During February 1999, the Company issued a $600 convertible debenture
to an existing stockholder of the Company. The debenture bears
interest at 11.75% and matures on June 30, 1999. At the maturity date
of the debenture, the holder can elect to convert the debenture into
the Company's Series D convertible preferred shares at a price per
share equal to 85% of the average closing bid price of the Company's
ordinary shares for the 20 days prior to conversion. If the Company's
ordinary shares is delisted from NASDAQ as of the date of conversion,
the price per share shall be equal to the average closing bid price of
the Company's ordinary shares as of the last 20 days before being
delisted. The Series D convertible preferred shares are convertible
any time at the option of the holder into one share of ordinary shares
for each preferred share converted. In addition, the holder received
3,000,000 warrants to purchase shares of the Company's ordinary shares
at an exercise price equal to 85% of the Company's ordinary shares for
the 20 trading days preceding the date of conversion. The warrants
expire on February 18, 2004. The Company recorded a $600 discount on
the convertible debenture. The Company has amortized the discount as
interest expense over the term of the debenture. On June 30, 1999, the
holder converted the $600 debenture, plus $25 in accrued interest,
into 2,884,874 shares of the Company's Series D convertible preferred
shares. The Series D convertible preferred shares do not pay
dividends. The holder of the Series D convertible preferred shares
have the right to vote its shares as if it had all been converted into
ordinary shares.
On July 14, 1999, the Company entered into a stock purchase agreement
with a group of three investors who paid $500, $167 each, for 2.4
million shares. One of the investors is required to purchase an
additional 7.1 million shares, one half (3.55 million Ordinary Shares)
9
LANGUAGEWARE.NET (COMPANY) LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
U.S. dollars in thousands, except per share information
(Unaudited)
of which will be required to be purchased if the Company enters into a
letter of intent with a strategic partner and the remaining one half
if the Company subsequently executes a definitive agreement of
strategic alliance with such partner. The investor will not be
required to purchase the additional 7.1 million shares if the Company
does not perform the requirements stated above. If the additional 7.1
million Ordinary Shares are purchased by the investor, existing
shareholders would be diluted by approximately 18%.
On October 12, 1999, the Company received $100 upon executing a
Convertible Promissory Note (the "Note") in the amount of $100 with
the investor mentioned above who may be required to purchase the
additional 7.1 million shares of the Company's Ordinary Shares. The
principal balance of the Note bears interest at the prime rate at the
date of the Note plus 200 basis points. The principal balance, plus
all accrued and unpaid interest, becomes due and payable on December
31, 1999. The investor has the right at any time to convert all or any
portion of the outstanding principal and unpaid interest into Ordinary
Shares of the Company based on the average of the five (5) lowest
closing trading prices of the Company's Ordinary Shares between the
date of the Note and the conversion date. At the date of issuance, the
market price of the Company's Ordinary Shares is equal to the
conversion price.
As mentioned in the preceding Note 3, the Company recognized an
extraordinary gain of $885 from the extinguishment of bank debt. On
January 25, 1999, the Company executed an agreement with its prime
lending bank in Israel pursuant to which the balances of $1,180 in
principal and approximately $11 in interest due the bank were
extinguished in exchange for the Company issuing to the bank a warrant
to receive 2,448,000 of the Company's Ordinary Shares. The warrant was
valued at $306 using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The
warrant has no exercise price, is exercisable on January 25, 2001 and
expires on January 25, 2006. The Company recognized gain from this
debt extinguishment in 1999.
Note 6 - IMPACT OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
(a) SOP 97-2, regarding software revenue recognition became effective for
all transactions entered into, in fiscal years commencing December 15,
1997. The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with this Standard.
(b) The Financial Accounting Standards Board has recently issued Statement
on Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS No. 133"). SFAS No. 133,
amended by SFAS No. 137, established standards for recognizing all
derivative instruments including those for hedging activities as
either assets or liabilities in the statement of financial position
and measuring those instruments at fair value. This Statement is
effective for all fiscal quarters of all fiscal years beginning after
June 15, 2000. Management believes the adoption of this statement will
have no material impact on the Company's consolidated financial
statements.

Introduction
Effective October 6, 1999, the Company changed its name to LanguageWare.net
(Company) Ltd. from Accent Software International Ltd.
This Form 10-Q for LanguageWare.net (Company) Ltd., and its subsidiaries
("the Company") contains historical information and forward-looking statements.
Statements looking forward in time are included in this Form 10-Q pursuant to
the "safe harbor" provision of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of
1995. Such statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties
including, but not limited to, the timely availability of new products and
services, market acceptance of the Company's existing products and services, and
products under development, the impact of competing products, services and
pricing, the availability of sufficient resources including short- and long-term
financing to carry out the Company's product development and marketing plans,
and quarterly fluctuations in operating results. The Company's actual results in
future periods may be materially different from any future performance suggested
herein. Further, the Company operates in an industry sector where securities'
values may be volatile and may be influenced by economic and other factors
beyond the Company's control. In the context of the forward-looking information
provided in this Form 10-Q, please refer to the Company's most recent Form 10-K
and the Company's other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The Company designs, develops and markets Language Information Technologies
(LIT) over the Internet. These technologies include software products and
services that help businesses easily localize their products and information
into other natural languages. The Company commenced operations in 1988 in
Jerusalem, Israel, and in 1997 moved its operations to Colorado Springs,
Colorado. Since moving its operations, the Company has changed its direction
toward Internet products and services for corporate customers that are reaching
international markets. Revenues are currently being generated through Internet
portals, translation services and software products that increase the
efficiencies of localizing media and products.
The Company has accumulated deficits of $52,998 since its inception through
September 30, 1999, and it may continue to incur deficits through the remainder
of 1999 and possibly beyond. The Company historically has generated operating
cash flow deficits and its liquidity is essentially exhausted. To enhance the
Company's longer-term prospects, management has focused on increasing revenue by
changing its direction toward Internet products and services, reducing expenses
and obtaining additional external financing. There can be no assurance that the
Company will be successful in reversing the trend of operating losses and in
generating sufficient working capital to meet its operating requirements and any
failure on the part of the Company to do so will have a material adverse impact
on the Company and could force it to cease operations. Although the Company
believes it has made substantial progress in penetrating Internet markets and
reducing its operating expenses and annual losses, its historical failure to
generate adequate operating income and cash flow to meet its working capital
requirements create doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going
concern and there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to continue
as a going concern.
The Company completed a restructuring during 1998 designed to reduce its
working capital requirements and to align its operating expenses with its
revised revenue projections. The restructuring eliminated the Company's
11
Israeli-based product development, sales and marketing functions and various
general and administrative activities. Staffing was reduced to 15 people during
the first quarter of 1999.
The Company is continuing to work on significant new sales opportunities
and has gradually expanded its sales and marketing operations through the
expanded use of sales representatives and cooperative agreements with other
businesses. There can be no assurance, however, that future revenue will meet
management's expectations.
The Company's ability to generate increased revenue and to fund planned
expenditures is dependent on a number of factors, some of which are outside its
control. In particular, revenue growth and profitability, if any, will depend on
the ability of the Company to develop and market new services, products and
product enhancements, demand for the Company's services and products, the level
of competition, the success of the Company in attracting and retaining motivated
and qualified personnel, the ability of the Company to control its costs and
general economic conditions. There can be no assurance that the Company will
meet such challenges successfully. Any of these or other factors could have a
material adverse effect on the Company's business, operating results or
financial condition.
Results of Operations
The Company's operations produced an operating loss of $454 during the
third quarter of 1999 on revenue of $550 compared with an operating loss of
$1,770 on revenue of $514 during the third quarter of 1998. For the first nine
months of 1999, the Company's loss before an extraordinary gain from debt
extinguishment of $885 was $1,836 on revenue of $1,561 compared to a loss before
extraordinary gain of $5,110 on revenue of $1,709 during the comparable period
of 1998.
The improvement in the Company's operating results was achieved through
significant cost reduction efforts in all facets of the business, coupled with
the redirection of the Company's operating strategy as mentioned above. The
Company believes it has now reduced spending to the minimum sustainable level
and has recently begun to focus its efforts on global Internet e-commerce
solutions.
Net Sales. Commencing early in the first quarter of calendar 1999,
management shifted it's focus to generating revenue through Internet portals.
Customer interest in the Company's newest products offered on the Internet,
Loc@le and LanquageWare, has been positive. Additionally, the Company is
encouraged by the number of requests for proposals for translation services from
customers visiting the Company's web site.
Revenue recorded in the three and nine month periods of 1998 included sales
of products that were dropped and/or not supported by the Company in the
comparable periods of 1999. Revenues in the comparable periods of 1999 primarily
include sales of translation services generated through traditional sales
methods. Because the Company is in the early stages of focusing its efforts on
global e-commerce solutions, the benefits, if any, from such efforts have yet to
be realized.
Cost of Sales. Manufacturing, production, warehousing and shipping expenses
have all been eliminated or significantly reduced from the year earlier period
consistent with the Company's shift away from the retail market and toward the
business-to-business market through Internet portals where manufacturing and
support costs are significantly lower. At the same time, the Company increased
12
its emphasis on translation services which have a relatively high cost of sales
due to a reliance on external translators to meet fluctuating demand.
Cost of sales during the third quarter of 1999 was $432, or 79% of sales,
compared to $326 in cost of sales, 63% of sales, during the same quarter of
1998. For the first nine months of 1999, cost of sales totaled $980, or 63% of
sales, compared to $701, or 41% of sales, reported during the same period of
1998.
The increased emphasis on translation services with its relatively higher
cost of sales than products previously offered by the Company in the comparable
periods of 1998 is reflected in the above comparisons of cost of sales.
Additionally, an engagement for translation services with one significant
customer in the 1999 periods had relatively low margins compared to standard
engagements.
Product Development Costs. Product development costs were $83 and $137
during the third quarter and first nine months of 1999, respectively, compared
to $498 and $2,341 during the comparable periods of 1998. The reduction in such
costs from the 1998 periods reflects primarily the cost savings realized from
the closure of the Company's product development center in Jerusalem coincident
to the change in the Company's operating strategy.
Product development costs historically included costs incurred by the
Company's subsidiary, AgentSoft. Founded in 1996, AgentSoft was a Jerusalem-
based start-up business focused on developing "intelligent agent" technology for
use on the Internet. Because the Company did not anticipate near-term revenue or
profit from AgentSoft and to allow the Company to focus all of its energies on
its core competencies in the Language Information Industry, the Board of
Directors concluded early in 1998 that the divestiture of AgentSoft would be in
the best interests of all concerned. The assets of AgentSoft were sold for $225
in September, 1998.
Marketing Expenses. The Company's marketing expenses were $201 for the
quarter ended September 30,1999; a reduction of 43% from $351 in the comparable
period in 1998. Marketing expenses for the first nine months of 1999 were
reduced approximately 58% to $479 from $1,140 for the first nine months of 1998.
Sales and marketing personnel were eliminated from the Jerusalem operation
during the third quarter of 1998 as the Company concluded it would be more
economical to rely on sales representatives for its Middle East activity rather
than full time employees. At the same time, the Company commenced establishing
the sales and marketing capability at its U.S. base in Colorado Springs,
Colorado. The Company's shift away from the retail market allows it to function
with fewer sales and marketing personnel and has also led to reductions in non-
personnel expenses such as trade shows, advertising and public relations costs.
General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses
during the third quarter of 1999 were $288 compared to $541 during the same
quarter of 1998 for a reduction of $253, or 47%. Such costs were $1,177 for the
nine months ended September 30, 1999, a reduction of 39% from $1,944 for the
same period of 1998. The reductions in general and administrative expenses are
primarily attributable to staff reductions from the closure of the Company's
offices in Jerusalem.
Other expenses, net. The Company did not have other income during the three
months ended September 30, 1999. For the comparable period of 1998, $61 in net
other expenses was incurred consisting primarily of interest and expense arising
from foreign exchange rate fluctuations. For the most recent nine month period,
13
the Company's other expenses totaled $624, primarily consisting of the
amortization of the discount related to the convertible debenture converted to
Series D convertible Preferred Shares by LHIC, compared to $125 during the
preceding period. As with the three month periods, other than the amortization
associated with the convertible debenture, other expenses consisted primarily of
interest expense and foreign exchange rate fluctuations, which fluctuations were
significantly reduced upon the move from Jerusalem, Israel to the U.S.
Loss before extraordinary item. The Company's loss before an
extraordinary item during the third quarter of 1999 of $454 was less than the
year earlier figure of $1,831. On a per share basis, the Company lost $0.01 per
share before the extraordinary item during the third quarter of 1999 compared to
a net loss of $0.07 per share during the third quarter of 1998. For the
first nine months of 1999, the loss before an extraordinary item was $1,836,
or $0.06 per share, compared to $5,110, or $0.20 per share, during the first
nine months of 1998. The significant reductions in losses before the
extraordinary item recorded in 1999 reflect the impact of the Company's cost
reduction initiatives and change in operating strategy.
Extraordinary gain from debt extinguishment. As previously mentioned, the
Company recognized an extraordinary gain of $885 in the first quarter of 1999
as a result of the extinguishment of $1,180 of long-term debt, plus $11 of
accrued interest, in exchange for the issuance of a warrant to the lender to
receive 2,448,000 shares of the Company's Ordinary Shares anytime after January
25, 2001, but before January 25, 2006. No such gain or loss was reported in the
first nine months of 1998. The extraordinary gain amounted to $0.03 per share on
a per share basis for the nine months ended September 30, 1999.
Net Loss. The Company recognized a net loss of $951, for the nine months
ended September 30, 1999 compared to a net loss of $5,110, for the comparable
period of 1998.
Deemed Dividends on Preferred Stock. As previously mentioned, the Company
recorded $2,535 in deemed dividends associated with the beneficial conversion
feature on the June 1998 issuance of the Series C convertible preferred shares
and warrants, increasing the net loss applicable to common shareholders to
$7,645 or $.30 per share for the nine months ended September 30, 1998. No such
dividend was reported in 1999.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
For the nine month period ended September 30, 1999, the Company's operating
activities used cash of $1,220 compared to $4,729 used during the comparable
period of 1998.
The Company has been successful on several occasions during the past two
and one half years in raising additional working capital through the sale of
convertible securities. The Company secured $600 in additional working capital
during the first quarter of 1999 in the form of short-term debt which was
converted to Series D convertible Preferred Shares on June 30, 1999. Those
funds, coupled with cost reduction efforts which substantially reduced its
working capital requirements, were sufficient to meet its requirements through
June 1999. In July 1999, the Company sold 2.4 million Ordinary Shares for $500,
and in October 1999 sold a convertible promissory note for $100 under agreements
more fully described above. Those funds were sufficient to meet the Company's
cash requirements through the end of October 1999. Working capital has fallen
short of its requirements and the Company is actively seeking additional
financing. There is no assurance the Company will be successful in securing
additional working capital and any failure on the part of the Company to do so
will have a material adverse impact on the Company and may cause the Company to
cease
14
operations.
On January 25, 1999, the Company entered into an agreement with the
government of Israel and various Israeli banking officials whereby the Company
issued a warrant to the bank to issue to the bank 2,448,000 Ordinary Shares in
full satisfaction of the balance of the loan. The warrant vests on the second
anniversary of the grant (that is, January 25, 2001) and expires on January 25,
2006.
Management has taken additional steps in securing additional external
financing and increasing revenues. At its annual meeting held on June 25, 1999,
shareholders gave the Board of Directors of the Company the authority to approve
a reverse stock split and an increase in the Company's capitalization.
Management believes these actions will provide a sufficient number of unreserved
and unissued shares to pursue, among other things, equity financing transactions
and strategic alliances and enhance the marketability of the Company's
outstanding Ordinary Shares to the investment community.
The Company's investing activities for the first nine months of 1999 used
cash of $1, primarily from the acquisition of equipment. Investing activities
for the comparable period of 1998 provided cash of $216, primarily from the sale
of AgentSoft.
Financing activities provided cash of $1,110 and $2,494 during the nine
month periods ended September 30, 1999, and 1998, respectively. For the 1999
nine month period proceeds from a short-term loan from LHIC were $600, $51 in
proceeds from a line of credit and net proceeds from the issuance of Ordinary
Shares to the group of three investors mentioned below were $459, whereas the
majority of the cash provided during the comparable period of 1998 was from
proceeds from the sale of Series C convertible Preferred Shares to L&H, offset
by $1,297 used for the repayment of government-guaranteed loans.
The Company obtained $600 of short-term financing under a Loan Agreement it
executed with L&H Investment Company, N.V. ("LHIC") on February 19, 1999. The
principal amount of the loan, plus $25 of accrued interest, was converted into
2,884,874 Series D convertible Preferred Shares on June 30, 1999. Additionally,
pursuant to the terms of the loan agreement, the Company issued to LHIC a
warrant to purchase 3.0 million Ordinary Shares of the Company at a price of
$0.269 per share.
On July 14, 1999, the Company entered into an agreement with a group of
three investors whereby the investors purchased for $500, 2.4 million Ordinary
Shares of the Company, which, after related fees, provided $459 to the Company.
Additionally, one of the investors is required to purchase an additional 7.1
million shares for $1,500 when and if the Company obtains a strategic partner
and enters into a strategic alliance with such partner. Under the terms of the
agreement, in the event the Company is unable to find and enter into a
definitive agreement with a strategic partner acceptable to the investor, then
the investor will not be required to purchase the remaining 7.1 million ordinary
shares.
On October 12, 1999, the Company received $100 upon executing a Convertible
Promissory Note (the "Note") in the amount of $100 with the investor mentioned
above who may be required to purchase the additional 7.1 million shares of the
Company's Ordinary Shares. The principal balance of the Note bears interest at
the prime rate at the date of the Note plus 200 basis points. The principal
balance, plus all accrued and unpaid interest, becomes due and payable on
December 31, 1999. The investor has the right at any time to convert all or any
portion of the outstanding principal and unpaid interest into Ordinary Shares of
the Company based on the average of the five(5) lowest closing trading prices of
the Company's Ordinary Shares between the date of the Note and the conversion
15
date.
The Company believes that its operations may not generate adequate cash
flow to meet its needs without additional external financing. The inability of
the Company to find and enter into a strategic alliance with a strategic
partner, or obtain other external financing in the event it is unable to do so
will have a material adverse impact and may cause the Company to cease
operations.
Year 2000
The Company has reviewed its operations in relation to the Year 2000 issue
and has concluded that the likelihood of this issue having a material adverse
impact on the Company is remote. Any costs incurred in relation to the Year 2000
issue are expected to be immaterial.
The Company develops all of its software products in compliance with Year
2000 industry guidelines. The Company's software products are not date sensitive
and, therefore, are not likely to be adversely impacted by Year 2000. The
Company, therefore, believes that it has minimal, if any, exposure to
contingencies related to the Year 2000 issue for the products it manufactures
and sells. The Company has reviewed the third-party custom-written software it
uses in its operations and has determined that this software is also not date
sensitive and poses minimal, if any, Year 2000 risk.
The Company has a policy of purchasing only information technology ("IT")
hardware that is warranted to be Year 2000 compliant and, therefore, believes
its only Year 2000 exposure in this regard is if the hardware fails to perform
as warranted, which is unlikely. The Company also utilizes "off-the-shelf"
software products in its operations. Such software is issued with frequent
updates which have or which are expected to address the Year 2000 issue.
The potential impact of the Year 2000 issue on the Company's non-IT systems
that may include embedded technology, such as microprocessors, is more difficult
to assess. The Company believes, however, that its operations are small enough
that any Year 2000 issue that may arise in its non-IT systems will amount to
inconveniences, which it can work around, rather than significant business
problems.
Because the Company believes the possibility that a Year 2000 issue
significantly disrupting its operations is remote, it has not developed a
contingency plan in this regard. The Company will continue to monitor and assess
the Year 2000 issue, particularly the extent to which its operations are
vulnerable from interactions with its vendors, customers and financial
institutions.
