ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Virtual Telecom, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Company"), was recently
organized to engage in the business of developing and marketing various
Internet content-based products and, secondarily, to act as an Internet
Service Provider ("ISP") providing access to the Internet. The Company's
initial content-based products offered over the Internet consist of the
delivery of financial data from securities and commodities exchanges
worldwide on a real-time and near real-time basis. During 1996 and the first
quarter of 1997, the Company acquired and implemented the hardware,
consisting of routers and servers, and leased telephone lines through which
it offers its financial data service and access to the Swiss market. During
the second fiscal quarter, the Company conducted pilot operations. The
Company commenced full commercial operations during the quarter ended
September 30, 1997. Unless the context otherwise requires, all references to
the Company include its wholly-owned subsidiary, Virtual Telecom SA, a Swiss
corporation.
The Company's results of operations for three months ended September 30,
1997 included revenues of $46,566 and a net loss of $(431,963). As of
September 30, 1997, the Company had a working capital deficit of $(336,427),
which has subsequently been increased by the Company's losses from operations
since that date. The Company has financed its operations to date through the
sale of its equity securities and has received gross proceeds of $1,825,000
from the sale of its equity securities during the nine months ended September
30, 1997. See Note 3 to the unaudited condensed financial statements. As of
the date of this report, the Company is seeking to acquire capital through
the sale of its debt or equity securities. If the Company is unable to raise
additional capital, the Company may not be able to continue its present level
of operations.
The Company's plan of operations for the next twelve months include,
subject to the receipt of additional capital, a full-scale roll-out of its
on-line financial database products targeted at professional users in the
Swiss banking, investment and corporate markets. Subsequent to the roll-out
to the Swiss market, the Company intends to expand its operations to other
key European markets. The Company will require additional capital to finance
the cost of development of Internet services in other geographic locations
and intends to finance those costs, in part, by joint venturing the
development of Internet related operations in those areas with local
businesses which will be responsible for contributing capital to the venture
as well as technical or marketing support.
As of the date of this report, the Company has in its early stage
commencement of operations concluded financial database products contracts
with 12 banking or trading enterprises providing for recurring revenue to
the Company in the aggregate amount of $10,000 per month. In addition, the
Company has concluded ISP network service contracts with 12 corporate clients
providing for
7
recurring revenue to the Company in the aggregate amount of $4,000 per month.
The Company is in an advanced stage of negotiations with approximately 30
potential corporate clients, each of which has solicited offers for the
Company's provision of financial data base products or ISP network service or
both.
This report contains various forward-looking statements that are based
on the Company's beliefs as well as assumptions made by and information
currently available to the Company. When used in this registration
statement, the words "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "estimate" and
similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements.
Such statements are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions,
including, without limitation, the Company's recent commencement of
commercial operations and the risks and uncertainties concerning the
acceptance of its services and products by the Swiss market, the Company's
present financial condition and the risks and uncertainties concerning the
availability of additional capital as and when required; technological
changes; increased competition; and general economic conditions. Should one
or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying
assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those
anticipated, estimated, or projected. The Company cautions potential
investor not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements
all of which speak only as of the date made.
