ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS.
Overview
ComTec International Inc. was incorporated on July 6, 1983 in the State of
New Mexico, originally under the name of Nisus Video, Inc. The Company has
undergone many changes to date as a result of certain reorganizations and recent
change of management. Historical changes are more fully disclosed in prior 34
Act filings and the most recent changes, including changes in management are
described in the Company's 10-KSB for the year ended June 30, 1998. The Company
is currently authorized to issue 100,000,000 common shares, $0.001 par value and
10,000,000 preferred shares, $0.001 par value. The Company has one wholly owned
operating subsidiary, American Wireless Network, Inc. ("AWN") and three inactive
subsidiaries.
American Wireless Network, Inc. ("AWN") a wholly owned subsidiary of the
Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Colorado on December 3,
1996, to act as the wireless communications operating entity for the Company.
The Company's wireless specialized mobile radio "SMR" operations are conducted
through AWN.
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 1998 and through the present, the
Company continued as a developmental stage entity focused on managing its
wireless specialized mobile radio "SMR" business plan. Prior to December, 1997
activities had been concentrated on creating and executing the Company's
strategic business plan, raising private financing, efforts to acquire other
entities and operations, developing a management and support staff to execute
its business plan, and maintaining reporting compliance for various federal
government agencies, such as the SEC and FCC. On December 5, 1997 AWN completed
the initial phase of a purchase agreement and on July 6, 1998 completed the
terms of an agreement whereby AWN purchased seven operating SMR systems for
$3,035,700. The wireless communications assets and associated business acquired
from Centennial Communications Corp. lay within the following seven MTA's:
Birmingham, Alabama; Knoxville, Tennessee; Memphis, Tennessee; Nashville,
Tennessee; New Orleans, Louisiana; Oklahoma City, Oklahoma; Tulsa, Oklahoma.
During the quarter ended March 31, 1999 AWN operated the seven SMR
communications systems from its office in Englewood, Colorado.
(a) Plan of Operation:
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
The securities of the Company are speculative and involve a high degree of
risk, including, but not necessarily limited to, the factors affecting operating
results described in the Form 10KSB for the year ended June 30, 1998 and other
filings with the SEC. The statements which are not historical facts contained in
this report, including statements containing words such as "believes,"
"expects," "intends," "estimates," "anticipates," or similar expressions, are
"forward looking statements" (as defined in the Private Securities Litigation
Reform Act of 1995) that involve risks and uncertainties.
The foregoing and subsequent discussion contains certain forward-looking
statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities A of the
Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
which are intended to be covered by the safe harbors created thereby. These
forward-looking statements include the plans and objectives of management for
future operations, including plans and objectives relating to the possible
further capitalization and future acquisitions of telecommunication, computer
related or other cash flow business. The forward-looking statements included
herein are based on current expectations that involve numerous risks and
uncertainties. Assumptions relating to the foregoing involve judgments with
respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive and market
conditions and future business decisions, all of which are difficult or
impossible to predict accurately and many of which are beyond the control of the
Company. Although the Company believes that the assumptions underlying the
forward-looking statements are reasonable, any of the assumptions could be
inaccurate and, therefore, there can be no assurance that the forward-looking
statements included in this Form 10- QSB will prove to be accurate. In light of
the significant uncertainties inherent in
8
the forward-looking statements included herein, the inclusion of such
information should not be regarded as a representation by the Company or any
other person that the objectives and plans of the Company will be achieved.
Since May 10, 1995, the Company's strategic business plan has, aside from
terminated venture in the LED screens and the divested TTI prepaid phone card
investment, been concentrated on wireless telecommunications. Currently, the
Company's only business is the recently commenced operation of basic two-way
communications services. The Company has been and continues to be in the
development stage. The Company remains in the development stage and from
inception (March 15, 1994) has only generated auxiliary revenues to defray the
cost of its planned operations, with only limited success in implementing actual
operations. The Company has financed its operations during the development stage
from the sale of its common stock and from issuance of short and long-term debt.
During the quarter ended March 31, 1999 and through the present the Company
continued as a developmental stage entity focused on managing its wireless SMR
business plan. During the quarter ended March 31, 1999, activities consisted of
operating the SMR systems, control of which was acquired in December, 1997,
developing alternative strategic plans, efforts to acquire financing, developing
a management plan and maintaining reporting compliance for various federal
government agencies, such as the SEC and FCC.
Current Status and Operations
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 1998 and through May of 1999, the
Company continued as a developmental stage entity focused on managing its
wireless specialized mobile radio "SMR" business plan. Prior to December, 1997
activities had been concentrated on creating and executing the Company's
strategic business plan, raising private financing, efforts to acquire other
entities and operations, developing a management and support staff to execute
its business plan, and maintaining reporting compliance for various federal
government agencies, such as the SEC and FCC. On December 5, 1997 AWN completed
the initial phase of a purchase agreement whereby AWN purchased seven operating
SMR systems for $3,035,700. The wireless communications assets and associated
business acquired from Centennial Communications Corp. lay within the following
seven MTA's: Birmingham, Alabama; Knoxville, Tennessee; Memphis, Tennessee;
Nashville, Tennessee; New Orleans, Louisiana; Oklahoma City, Oklahoma; Tulsa,
Oklahoma. During the quarter ended March 31, 1999 AWN operated the seven SMR
communications systems from its office in Englewood, Colorado. AWN's SMR
communication services were sold to individual customers through an independent
dealer network of local two-way radio communications equipment vendors
("Dealers"). The Dealers maintain the local relationships with the customers.
AWN acts as the direct billing provider of SMR communications to the customer
base provided by the Dealers. AWN is responsible for local telephone lines,
equipment maintenance, tower site rentals, customer loading, coding and billing
and all customer service and financial relationships. AWN also has all
responsibility for maintaining its SMR licenses, making payments to the FCC on
its licenses and funding all equipment additions and system improvements.
Expenses of operating the system significantly exceed revenues from the systems
during the quarter ended March 31, 1999 and preceding periods.
On April 15, 1999, and as amended on July 14, 1999, AWN executed an Asset
Acquisition Agreement with CMRS Systems, Inc. an unaffiliated corporate entity.
The purpose of the Asset Acquisition Agreement is to facilitate the future sale
by American Wireless Network, Inc. to CMRS Systems, Inc. of specifically
identified 900 MHz Licenses and American Wireless Network, Inc.'s customer base
and customer lists associated with the specified 900 MHz licenses. The sale and
an associated lease of SMR related equipment owned by AWN, is subject to certain
conditions and events, including final and unappealable regulatory approvals
relating to the transfer of the licenses to the Buyer. In consideration for the
sale, the Buyer is to assume approximately $1,400,000 of American Wireless
Network, Inc.'s debt to the Federal Communications Commission related to the
licenses. AWN will retain a seven and one half percent interest in the specific
operating assets sold to CMRS Systems, Inc. which assets will be operated
through a division of CMRS Systems, Inc. to be known as the S.E. 900 Division.
During the pendancy of the license transfer application, Effective June 1, 1999,
CMRS will operate the SMR systems under a management agreement. As an additional
provision of the agreement, CMRS Systems, Inc. and AWN entered into a five year
lease agreement whereby AWN will lease SMR related equipment to CMRS Systems,
Inc.
Funding Efforts:
In May 1998, the Company paid a deposit to Sigma Finance Corporation in
connection with a nonbinding financing proposal for up to a $200 million
ten-year bond issue to be collateralized by all of the Company's assets. In
September 1998, the Board of Directors approved the preliminary requirements of
the proposed tentative financing arrangement and management was authorized to
take all necessary action to pursue and finalize the transaction if the
opportunity arises. The significant terms approved by the Board in anticipation
of potential
9
financing include an allowance for the lender of a minimum of two seats on the
Company's Board of Directors, the power of veto over future capital expenditures
and other significant matters, and issuance of unrestricted shares of common
stock equal to 20% of the Company's equity, with a non-dilution agreement which
would have the effect of maintaining the lenders 20% holding at no cost to the
lender whatever additional issues of equity capital was proposed or made during
the life of the bond. In addition to legal fees to effect the financing, the
Company will be required to pay an origination fee of 10% of the loan proceeds
should the financing materialize. Neither Sigma Finance Corporation nor any
other person or entity is obligated to make an loan or provide financing to the
Company under any terms.
Should the Company be successful in obtaining substantial additional debt
financing, management plans to seek merger with or acquisitions of more mature
telecommunication or computer related businesses or other cash generating
enterprises that would generate sufficient cash flow to maintain debt service.
There can be no assurances that the Company will be successful in the
implementation of its plan for expansion and its overall business plan
Pending Acquisitions:
Currently there are no letters of intent or other formalized agreements to
acquire any entity or assets. The only acquisition which the Company has
accomplished to date is the purchase completed July 6, 1998, whereby AWN
purchased seven operating SMR systems for $3,035,697. from Centennial
Communications Corp.
(b) Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company reported a net loss (unaudited) of $1,047,052 for the nine
months ended March 31, 1999 and has reported net losses from inception (March
15, 1994) to March 31, 1999 of $12,751,952. The Company had deficient working
capital at March 31, 1999 of $666,236. As of March 31, 1999, the Company
reported unaudited shareholder equity of $593,920. To date, these losses and
cash flow deficiencies have been financed principally through the sale of common
stock and warrants and issuance of short and long-term debt which includes
related party debt. Additional capital and/or borrowings will be necessary in
order for the Company to continue in existence until attaining profitable
operations. Although a portion of convertible debt was liquidated through the
issuance of common stock, no assurances can be given that the sources of
borrowings would continue. The Company is highly leveraged and a number of
developments over the past quarter had material adverse effects on the Company.
The Company has a significant investment in license rights obtained through the
acquisition of assets from Centennial Communications, Corp., the recoverability
of which is dependent upon the success of future events.
Management has continued to develop a strategic business plan to raise
private financing, develop a management team, maintain reporting compliance and
seek new expansive areas in telecommunications. In order to reduce negative cash
flow the Company entered an agreement to sell its FCC licenses to satisfy debt
requirements and in a plan anticipated to generate cash flows, has entered into
an agreement to lease its SMR equipment.
From August 1, 1999 to the end of fiscal year ended June 30, 2000, the
Company estimates its cash needs to maintain operations under its current
negative cash flow situation is approximately $550,000. This amount is composed
of $550,000 for working capital assuming that current operations continue in its
present status. These amounts include offsets for anticipated amounts of cash
generated from operations, but does not consider possible proceeds from interest
income or sales of assets.
The Company has limited capitalization and is dependent on the proceeds of
private or public offerings to continue as a going concern and implementing a
business plan. As of March 31, 1999, the unaudited results of the Company
indicated deficit working capital of $666,236. All during fiscal 1998 and to the
date of this filing, the Company has had and continues to have a substantial
need for working capital for normal operating expenses associated with the
Company continuing as a going concern. This lack of cash has slowed its ability
to develop SMR assets and initiate revenue producing operations. Any activity in
the wireless industry requires adequate financing and on-going funding sources.
The Company has entered this industry with limited financing and funding
sources.
At March 31, 1999 (unaudited), the following contingent stock issue
requirements and warrants were outstanding:
- Shares reserved for the Company's incentive stock option plan (900,000)
10
- Shares reserved for issuance in accordance with outstanding warrants
issued June 30, 1997 (4,242,923) exercisable at $4.50 per share,
expiring June 30, 2000.
- Shares reserved for contingent issue with respect to outstanding
warrants exercisable at $2.90 per share associated with converted debt
and LED Screens (7,083,333), expiring in March 2001.
- Shares reserved for contingent issue with respect to outstanding
warrants exercisable at $2.90 per share associated with converted debt
related to the SMR Asset purchase (17,600,000), expiring in March
2001.
- On February 16, 1998, the Company entered into a letter agreement
with the Company, which remains to be formalized, by which James
Krejci became employed as Chief Operations Officer of the Company and
President and CEO of AWN. The letter agreement calls for a three
year employment agreement with the opportunity for Mr. Krejci to
obtain, through common stock option agreements, up to ten percent
(10%) of the outstanding common stock of the Company over a three year
period. The preliminary agreement calls for Mr. Krejci to receive
stock options vesting in monthly increments to equal to a total of 5%
of the Company's outstanding common shares over a three year period.
Options to obtain an additional 5% of the Company's outstanding
common shares are conditioned upon the Company reaching certain
financial and administrative goal within established timelines. The
strike price of all of the potential options, as modified (reprised)
by Board of Director action on October 7, 1998, is $.056 per share,
representing 80% of the bid price of the Company's common stock on
September 2nd, 1998, (closing bid price $.07) Mr. Krejci's actual
appointment date as President and CEO of the Company.
- Effective January 1, 1999, the Company entered into a letter agreement
with the Company, which remains to be formalized, by which Gordon
Dihle became employed as Chief Financial Officer of the Company. The
letter agreement calls for a three year employment agreement with the
opportunity for Mr. Dihle to obtain, through common stock option
agreements, up to seven and one half percent (7.5%) of the outstanding
common stock of the Company over a three year period. The preliminary
agreement calls for Mr. Dihle to receive stock options vesting in
increments to equal to a total of 2.5% of the Company's outstanding
common shares over a three year period. The strike price of all of
the options is $.056 per share, representing 80% of the bid price
of the Company's common stock on September 2nd, 1998, (closing bid
price $.07) Mr. Dihle's date of appointment as Chief Financial Officer
of the Company.
During quarter ended March 31, 1999, the Company continued as a development
stage enterprise. The Company's financial statements are therefore not
indicative of anticipated revenues which may be attained or expenditures which
may be incurred by the Company in future periods. The Company's ability to
achieve profitable operations is subject to the validity of its assumptions and
risk factors within the industry and pertaining to the Company.
As a result of the operation of SMR licenses and existing operations
purchased from Centennial Communications Corp., $40,677 of revenues were
generated from the Company's wireless business during the quarter ended March
31, 1999 as compared to $94,438 of revenues earned during the initial full
quarter of operating the acquired business in the quarter ended March 31, 1998.
The decrease in reported revenue was a result of adjustments to prior period
sales and receivables.
For the quarter ending March 31, 1999, the Company incurred General and
Administrative Expenses of $219,166, a decrease of $191,532 from the quarter
ending March 31, 1998, when the Company incurred General and Administrative
expenses of $410,698. Management has undertaken cost cutting measures in order
to reduce overhead and reoccurring costs. The overall reduction in expenses
reflects Management's efforts at bringing the Company's operating and
administrative costs under control. The Company's Quarter ended March 31, 1999
financial statements reflect adjustments and nonrecurring items of both revenue
and costs, as well as development stage costs and are not indicative of
anticipated revenues which may be attained or expenditures which may be incurred
by the Company in future periods.

Part II
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
On September 14, 1998 the Company received by certified mail a Complaint
filed in Superior Court of California, County of San Diego, Case No. 723581
entitled John Brent, et al vs. ComTec International, Inc., a New Mexico
corporation, et al Defendants. The Complaint by seven named Plaintiffs alleges
securities fraud, improper sale of unregistered securities, and stock
manipulation against the Company and five individual defendants who were former
officers and/or directors of the Company, none of whom are currently associated
with the Company. The Company believes that it has meritorious defenses and will
vigorously defend against the allegations of the Complaint. Due to the
preliminary stage of the matter, further information is not available. The
Company filed its answer to Plaintiffs' Complaint on July 15, 1999. A motion to
dismiss Plaintiffs' complaint for failure to join indispensable parties
initiated by the Company is pending.
Litigation with Former Officer and Director
On February 1, 1999 Donald Mack, the former CEO, President and director of
ComTec International, Inc. filed a complaint in the District Court, City and
County of Denver, State of Colorado, Civil Action Number 99CV634, Courtroom 6,
against ComTec International, Inc. ("ComTec") as well as two individual
defendants, a current officer and a shareholder of ComTec. On March 24, 1999
ComTec filed its Answer and extensive Counterclaims against Donald Mack
("Mack"). Mack alleges that he is entitled to continued compensation and
benefits based upon a March 31, 1997 addendum to his December 26, 1995
employment contract (which expired in May of 1998). Mack further alleges that
although he resigned as an officer in June 1998, he was wrongfully induced to
resign. Mack alleges that he is due salary, car allowance, health plan payments,
life insurance payments, stock bonuses and other items from June 30, 1998
through June 30, 2002. ComTec's answer states that the March 31, 1997 addendum
is null and void as a matter of law, denies any wrongdoing or inducement and
denies any and all liability to Mack. ComTec's answer further states as
affirmative defenses that Mack's claims are barred by the doctrine of estoppel
and unclean hands, that the March 31, 1997 addendum was entered into under
circumstances of fraud and illegality, that Mack's claims are barred by failure
of consideration, fraud and illegality, waiver, failure to mitigate, that Mack's
alleged claims are setoff by the counterclaims of ComTec against Mack and that
Mack's alleged damages, if any, are the result of Mack's own actions. ComTec
believes it has meritorious and virtuous defenses and anticipates that it will
vigorously and effectively defend against any and all claims by Mack. The
Company filed a number of Counterclaims against Mack. Among the Counterclaim
allegations of ComTec against Mack are allegations that an agreement entered
into in May of 1995, whereby Mack gained control of ComTec through an agreement
for ComTec to purchase the assets of a corporation controlled by Mack, KeyStone
Holding Corporation, was entered into with intent to defraud ComTec and its
shareholders. Among other allegations, ComTec alleges that misrepresentations
and omissions of material fact were made by Mack prior to the Keystone
transaction, that Mack used ComTec as an instrumentality for his own personal
benefit and affairs, that Mack acted to conceal material facts regarding Mack's
ultra vires and unauthorized acts in the name of ComTec. ComTec further alleges
that Mack took unauthorized and unearned bonuses in stock of ComTec and cash,
that the execution of the employment addendum through which Mack is alleging
amounts are now due him from ComTec was accompanied by circumstances of fraud
and collusion, and that Mack made unauthorized use of ComTec's funds and
property. ComTec's claims against Mack include: intentional
misrepresentation/fraudulent inducement regarding the Keystone Transaction;
fraudulent concealment/constructive fraud; breach of warranty; breach of
fiduciary duty; conversion; fraudulent conveyance; civil theft pursuant to
C.R.S. Section 18-4-401 and 18-4-405 and securities fraud pursuant to C.R.S.
Section 11-51- 501. ComTec seeks monetary damages and constructive trust as well
as Declaratory Judgment pursuant to C.R.C.P. 57. ComTec believes it has
meritorious claims and will resolutely pursue its claims against Mack. A trial
date of April 3, 2000 has been set for the matter.
Except for the foregoing, no litigation or other material legal
proceedings, to which the Company is a party or to which the property of the
Company is subject, is pending or is known by the Company to be contemplated.
