VIRTRA
SYSTEMS, INC. NOTES TO FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS __________
1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited
interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of
the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, and should be read in conjunction
with the audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended
December 31, 2002. They do not include all information and footnotes required by
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for
complete financial statements. However, except as disclosed herein, there has
been no material change in the information disclosed in the notes to the
financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2002 included in the
Company’s Form 10-KSB and Form DEF 14A filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting
of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of
financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods
presented have been included. Operating results for the interim periods are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the respective
full year.
2. Use
of Estimates
The preparation of
financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect reported amounts and related disclosures. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.
3. Income Taxes
The difference between the 34%
federal statutory income tax rate and amounts shown in the accompanying interim
financial statements is primarily attributable to an increase in the valuation
allowance applied against the tax benefit from the future utilization of net
operating loss carryforwards.
4. Discontinued Operations
On April 30, 2003, VirTra
Systems, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an agreement to sell its
contracts and the assets used in its theme park operations for $120,000, payable
in four equal installments of $30,000 upon signing of the term sheet; $30,000 on
April 30, 2003; $30,000 on May 31, 2003; and $30,000 on June 30, 2003. The
transaction resulted in a loss on sale of assets of $16,281.
The financial statements have
been presented to reflect the sale of the Company’s assets related to its
theme park operations. Accordingly, the financial statements reflect the theme
park operations as discontinued operations for each of the periods
presented.
Total revenues included in
discontinued operations was $-0- and $32,060 for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2003, respectively, and $713,139 and $1,019,921 for the three and
nine months ended September 30, 2002, respectively. There was no effect on
basic and diluted net loss per common share, reported in the accompanying
statement of operations, from the results of the discontinued operations.
5. Reclassification
Certain amounts reported in the
prior period financial statements have been reclassified to the current period
presentation.
6. Common Stock
In July 2002, the Company
entered into an agreement for up to a maximum $5,000,000 sale of its common
stock to Dutchess Private Equities Fund, LP (“Dutchess”). Under
this investment agreement the Company has the right to issue a “put
notice” to Dutchess to purchase the Company’s common stock. Put
notices cannot be issued more frequently than every seven days. The required
purchase price is equal to 92% of the average of the four lowest closing bid
prices of the common stock during the five-day period immediately following the
issuance of the put notice. Each individual put notice is subject to a maximum
amount equal to 175% of the daily average volume of the common stock for the 40
trading days before the issuance of the put notice multiplied by the average of
the closing bid prices of the common stock for the three trading days
immediately preceding the put notice date. Regardless of the amount stated in a
put notice, the maximum amount that Dutchess is required to purchase is the
lesser of the amount stated in the put notice or an amount equal to 20% of the
aggregate trading volume of the common stock during the five days immediately
following the date of the put notice times 92% of the average of the four lowest
closing bid prices of the common stock during this five-day period. During the
nine months ended September 30, 2003 the Company sold 5,427,231 shares of its
common stock for $452,404 under this agreement.
In connection with this
investment agreement the Company issued $450,000 in convertible debentures. The
debentures bear interest at 5% per year payable in cash or registered common
stock at the Company’s option. The debentures mature in September 2005
and are convertible, at the option of the holder, to shares of the
Company’s common stock at a conversion price per share equal to the lower
of (i) 85% of the average of any four or five closing bid prices for the common
stock for the five days prior to the conversion date; or (ii) 125% of the volume
weighted average price on the closing date. During the nine months ended
September 30, 2003 the Company issued 2,710,600 shares of its common stock upon
conversion of $204,598 of this debenture and issued 106,232 shares of its common
stock as payment of $7,786 of interest on the debentures.
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
The statements
contained in this Report that are not historical are forward-looking statements,
including statements regarding our expectations, intentions, beliefs or
strategies regarding the future. Forward-looking statements include our
statements regarding liquidity, anticipated cash needs, and availability and
anticipated expense levels. All forward-looking statements included in this
Report are based on information available to us on the date hereof, and we
assume no obligation to update any such forward-looking statement. It is
important to note that our actual results could differ materially from those in
such forward-looking statements. The following discussion and analysis should be
read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto appearing
elsewhere in this Report.
Overview
Effective May 6, 2002,
our name was changed from “GameCom, Inc.” to “VirTra Systems,
Inc.,” pursuant to authority granted to the board of directors by the
shareholders at its September, 2001 meeting.
Effective September, 2001,
we completed the acquisition of Ferris Industries, Inc., a leading developer and
operator of virtual reality devices. Ferris designed, developed, and distributed
technically-advanced products for the entertainment, simulation, promotion, and
education markets. Its virtual reality (VR) devices are computer-based and allow
people to view and manipulate graphical representations of physical reality. The
acquisition provided us with a wider array of products within our industry, an
experienced management team, an existing revenue stream, and established
distribution channels. Until we acquired Ferris, we had devoted substantially
all of our efforts to implementing our `Net GameLink™ product, an
interactive entertainment system designed to allow a number of players to
compete with one another in a game via an intranet or the Internet.
The
Ferris acquisition was accounted for as a pooling of interests. Ferris was much
larger than GameCom in terms of assets, and had substantial revenues whereas
GameCom had essentially no revenues at the time of the acquisition. We
recently sold our theme park operations, so that substantially all our revenue
on an ongoing basis is expected to be in custom applications and other sources.
Future revenues and profits will depend upon various factors, including
market acceptance of our two advanced training systems, and the success of our
continued sales to the advertising/promotion market. Our anticipated entry into
the training/simulation market was advanced by the aftermath of September 11,
2001. We unveiled our initial product in this market, the IVR-p™ advanced
training simulator, in December of 2002, and we publicly announced the other
more advanced training simulator, the IVR-360™, in July. We recently
announced the initial two sales of our advanced training simulators in September
and October, respectively. We have conducted demonstrations of both the
IVR-p™ and the IVR-360™ in Washington, D.C. and at our Phoenix
production facility, and numerous demonstrations are scheduled within the next
few months. We remain in advanced discussions with representatives of the
Department of Homeland Security, various federal and foreign agencies, and
various law enforcement agencies regarding our technology, and our capabilities
in situational awareness and judgmental use-of-force training. We face all of
the risks, expenses, and difficulties frequently encountered in connection with
the expansion and development of a business, difficulties in maintaining
delivery schedules if and when volume increases, the need to develop support
arrangements for systems at widely dispersed physical locations, and the need to
control operating and general and administrative expenses. While the Ferris
acquisition provided an established stream of revenues and historically
favorable gross margins, Ferris had not yet generated a profit, and substantial
additional capital, or major highly-profitable custom applications, will be
needed if those operations are to become profitable.
Results of
Operations
Three Months Ended September 30, 2003 Compared to Three
Months Ended September 30, 2002
Three major factors affected our
results of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2003, compared to
the corresponding period of 2002. First, revenue increased. Second, general and
administrative expenses increased. Third, interest expense and finance charges
decreased.
Revenues from our virtual reality product lines are somewhat
unpredictable. Custom applications tend to consist of a few large projects at
any time, and the stage of completion of any particular project can
significantly affect revenue. We had revenue of $218,911 for the three months
ended September 30, 2003, compared to $118,170 for the corresponding three
months of 2002. Revenue from custom applications and other sources increased.
The main component of this item is revenue from the recently completed contract
with Cameo Marketing for the Red Baron® 3-D Flying Adventure™,
from a promotional helicopter project for an undisclosed customer, and from
Schwan’s (Red Baron™ Pizza) for a promotional experience at its new
flight museum. Cost of sales and services increased proportionally.
General and administrative expenses of $393,730 for the three months
ended September 30, 2003, compared to $265,856 for the three months ended
September 30, 2002, increased primarily due to an increase in consulting fees. .
Interest expense and finance charges decreased to $242,698 for the three
months ended September 30, 2003 compared to $381,129 for the corresponding
period of 2002 largely because of a significant reduction in common shares
issued as interest or financing fees, and because the debt issuance costs on a
majority of the product-financing arrangements have now been fully
amortized.
Nine months Ended September 30, 2003 Compared to Nine
Months Ended September 30, 2002
Three major factors affected our
results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2003, compared to
the corresponding period of 2002. First, revenues increased. Second, general
and administrative expenses decreased. Finally, interest expense and finance
charges also decreased.
We had revenue of $661,515 for the nine months
ended September 30, 2003, compared to $313,452 for the corresponding nine months
of 2002. The main components of this item are revenue from the Shell/Pennzoil
Vroom Tour promotional virtual reality project, the recently-completed
Red Baron® 3-D Flying Adventure™ promotional project, a
promotional helicopter experience for an undisclosed customer, and the
Schwan’s (Red Baron™ Pizza) promotional experience at its new flight
museum. Cost of sales and services increased to $296,115, which is relatively
proportionate to the increase in revenue.
General and administrative
expenses of $944,344 for the nine months ended September 30, 2003, compared to
$1,177,868 for the nine months ended September 30, 2002, decreased primarily due
to a reduction in professional and consulting fees, and management’s
efforts to reduce general overhead expense.
Interest expense and finance
charges decreased to $720,189 for the nine months ended September 30, 2003,
compared to $1,067,584 for the corresponding period of 2002, largely because of
a significant reduction in common shares issued as interest or financing fees,
and because the debt issuance costs on a majority of the product-financing
arrangements have now been fully
amortized.
Liquidity
and Plan of Operations
As of September 30, 2003 our
liquidity position remained precarious. However, our recent increase in revenue
from custom applications for the advertising/promotional market has given us
some breathing room. As of September 30, 2003 we had current liabilities of
$9,508,289, including $5,842,313 in obligations under lease financing
arrangements for the virtual reality systems formerly utilized in our amusement
applications, $1,089,496 in accounts payable, and short-term notes payable of
$817,313, some of which were either demand indebtedness or were payable at an
earlier date and were in default. As of September 30, 2003 there were only
$31,620 in current assets available to meet those liabilities. We will be able
to continue operations only if holders of our short-term notes and lease
obligations continue to forebear enforcement of those obligations.
On July 12, 2002, we entered
into an agreement with Dutchess Private Equities, L.P., pursuant to which
Dutchess and other investors participated in the private placement of
$450,000.00 in convertible debentures, as well as a private equity line of
$5,000,000.00 over the next two years. Registration of the shares to be issued
under the terms of the agreement was accomplished pursuant to the terms of an
SB-2 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 12, 2002, and
which became effective on September 2, 2002. Dutchess has fully funded the
debentures. As of September 30, 2003, the balance owed on the debentures to
Dutchess had been reduced to $88,634.
The Dutchess private equity
line may not in the future be a viable funding mechanism, as the price and
volume of trading in our shares may become too low to make that source of
financing attractive. To date we have met our capital requirements by acquiring
needed equipment under non-cancelable leasing arrangements, through capital
contributions, loans from principal shareholders and officers, certain private
placement offerings, the Dutchess convertible debentures, and the Dutchess
private equity line.
For the nine months ended
September 30, 2003, net cash used in operating expenses was $536,366. To fund
our operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2003, we received
$120,000 from the sale of assets used in our theme park operations, issued
$35,000 in notes to non-stockholders, utilized our cash on hand in the sum of
$98,442, increased our book overdraft by $7266, and drew down $452,404 under our
equity line of credit.
The opinion of our independent
auditor for each of the last two fiscal years expressed substantial doubt as to
our ability to continue as a going concern. We will either need substantial
additional capital, or to be successful with lucrative custom application
projects in the promotional/advertising markets, or for our entry into the
training/simulation market to be successful so as to generate profits to fund
the company. We may need additional financing in order to carry out our
expansion plans. Based upon the increase in the stock's trading volume and
price following our entry into the training/simulation market, management
believes that the Dutchess financing will allow us to continue our operations
for at least the next 12 months, provided holders of our short-term notes and
equipment lease obligations continue to give us the breathing room necessary for
our new applications to make significant contributions to revenue.
Item 3. Controls and Procedures
Based upon an evaluation
performed within 90 days of this report, our CEO and CFO has concluded that our
disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that material
information relating to our company is made known to management, including the
CEO and CFO, particularly during the period when our periodic reports are being
prepared, and that our internal controls are effective to provide reasonable
assurance that our financial statements are fairly presented in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.
In accord with SEC
requirements, the CEO and CFO notes that, since the date of his evaluation to
the date of this Quarterly Report, there have been no significant changes in
internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect internal
controls, including any corrective actions with regard to significant
deficiencies and material weaknesses.
