ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION
- -----------------------
The Company is a development stage company engaged in the
commercialization of advanced antenna technology known as the Contrawound
Torroidal Helical Antenna, herein "CTHA", for wireless communications markets
including cellular, meter reading and global positioning services. The CTHA,
developed in conjunction with researchers at West Virginia University, is a
technologically advanced antenna design which can be incorporated into a wide
variety of telecommunications applications. The Company has been granted
worldwide sublicensing rights for commercial applications, excluding military
and governmental applications, for the antenna.
During fiscal 1997, the Company entered into a joint venture agreement,
herein "JVA", with ETC dated March 4, 1997. The JVA required a limited company
to be incorporated, The Eclipse Antenna Manufacturing Corporation, herein
"TEAM", whereby the Company will own 50% of the issued and outstanding common
shares and ETC will own the remaining 50%. Pursuant to a voting agreement the
Company can vote 100% of the shares of TEAM. The control person of ETC will be
the operator. TEAM was organized on June 4, 1997 under the laws of the State of
West Virginia. The Company retains the worldwide commercial sublicense rights to
the CTHA.
The purpose of the joint venture is to cooperate in the research and
development of certain applications for the CTHA and to assemble and manufacture
certain products relating thereto. IAS will buy product from TEAM at cost to
manufacture plus 30% for all commercial applications and ETC will buy product
from TEAM at cost to manufacture plus 30% for all military applications. ETC
acquired the worldwide sublicense from ICI for all military applications on
January 2, 1997.
On May 5, 1997, the Company and ETC have each contributed $150,000 to TEAM
as required in the JVA. These funds will be spent on formation costs and to
equip a research and development facility to further the commercialization of
the applications and prototype construction. A further $100,000 each will be
required on an as needed basis.
During fiscal 1997, the Company received an initial purchase order for
10,000 units of its CTHA. The Company will fill this order once TEAM completes
its manufacturing processes and specifications have been approved. This initial
order will be filled by TEAM on a contracted-out basis.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JULY 21, 1997 COMPARED TO THE
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
THREE MONTHS ENDED JULY 31, 1996
--------------------------------
There were no revenues from licensing the CTHA during the two periods.
The net loss in total and each component were comparable in 1997 to 1996.
The Company spend $87,381 on research conducted by CIRA during the quarter.
LIQUIDITY - FISCAL 1997
- -----------------------
During the three months ended July 31, 1997, the Company financed its
operations, in part, from proceeds from two private placements. The Company
raised $15,750 and issued 7,000 Class "A" common shares at $2.25 per share. The
Company also raised $37,500 by way of subscriptions and will issue 21,429 shares
at $1.75 per share. The Company also received $3,625 pursuant to options
exercised and issued 14,500 Class "A" common shares at $.25. The Company has
also raised $25,000 pursuant to a convertible debenture and has received $21,725
pursuant to related company loans.
The Company's financial resources, including an opening cash balance as at
April 30, 1997 of $135,039, totalled $233,639. Cash used, as a result of the net
loss for the year, totalled $81,700, after adjustments to reconcile net loss to
cash and the Company spent $1,542 on computer equipment.
The cash balance of $155,397, the completion of the convertible debenture
issue and a private placement of shares at $1.75 should together provide
adequate additional funds to pay current liabilities of $259,617. The Company is
committed to spending an additional $25,913 to complete the funding of the
research and development program in conjunction with CIRA, the total budget to
July 31, 1997 is for $514,346 of which $488,433 has been incurred to July 31,
1997. The balance of cash resources should provide enough funds for
administrative expenses over the next twelve months and working capital.
