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 consolidated 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 23, 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 $35,189.
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 six months ended June 30, 2003, respectively, and $264,680 and $306,782 for
the three and six months ended June 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 three months ended June 30, 2003
the Company sold 2,335,007 shares of its common stock for $179,032 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 six
months ended June 30, 2003 the Company issued 1,275,191 shares of its common
stock upon conversion of $98,295 of this debenture and issued 34,809 shares of
its common stock as payment of $2,551 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. We intend to
continue development and deployment of that entertainment system while at the
same time expanding Ferris' business. Post-merger, the anticipated deployment of
our existing virtual reality technology is anticipated to be highly profitable.
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. As a result, the discussion below relates in major part to the
former Ferris operations rather than GameCom's.
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, and we recently announced the other more
advanced training simulator, the IVR-360™. We have conducted numerous
demonstrations of the IVR-p™ in Washington, D.C. We remain in advanced
discussions with representatives of Homeland Security, various federal agencies,
and various law enforcement agencies regarding our technology, and our
capabilities in the detection and mitigation of risk. We have recently learned
that one federal protective agency, based upon its approval of the IVR-p
prototype at a recent demonstration, is moving forward with the procurement of
our products. There can be no assurances that these advanced discussions will be
fruitful or that the prototype will be satisfactory.
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 June 30, 2003 Compared to Three
Months Ended June 30, 2002
Two major factors affected our results of operations for
the three months ended June 30, 2003, compared to the corresponding period of
2002. First, revenue increased. Second, general and administrative expense
decreased.
Revenues from both of our historic virtual reality product
lines -- theme parks and arcades and custom applications -- are somewhat
unpredictable. Theme park and arcade revenues are affected by both the overall
traffic at facilities of this type and by the extent to which we are able to
provide new and attractive content to attract more users and increase repeat
business. 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 $80,858 for the three months ended June 30,
2003, compared to $30,283 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™. Despite the increased
revenue, cost of sales and services decreased. General and administrative costs
of $287,983 for the three months ended June 30, 2003, compared to $579,807 for
the three months ended June 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
increased to $249,069 for the three months ended June 30, 2003, compared to
$205,709 for the corresponding period of 2002.
Six months Ended June 30, 2003 Compared to Six Months
Ended June 30, 2002
Three major factors affected our results of operations
for the six months ended June 30, 2003, compared to the corresponding period of
2002. First, revenues increased. Second, general and administrative expense
decreased. Finally, interest expense and finance charges also
decreased.
We had revenue of $442,604 for the sixth months ended June 30,
2003, compared to $195,282 for the corresponding six months of 2002. The main
components of this item are revenue from the Shell/Pennzoil Vroom Tour
promotional virtual reality project, as well as the recently-completed Red
Baron® 3-D Flying Adventure™ promotional project. Cost of sales
and services increased to $174,101, but less proportionately than the increased
revenue from custom applications. General and administrative costs of $550,614
for the six months ended June 30, 2003, compared to $912,012 for the six months
ended June 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 $477,491 for
the six months ended June 30, 2003, compared to $686,455 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 June 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 June 30, 2003 we had current liabilities of
$9,457,513, including $5,634,130 in obligations under the lease financing for
the virtual reality systems formerly utilized in our amusement applications,
$1,185,180 in accounts payable, and short-term notes payable of $848,411, some
of which were either demand indebtedness or were payable at an earlier date and
were in default. As of June 30, 2003 there were only $41,699 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 June 30, 2003, the balance owed on the debentures to Dutchess
had been reduced to $209,967.
The Dutchess private equity
line may not be a viable funding mechanism, as the price and volume of trading
in our shares may be 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, and
the Dutchess convertible debentures. For the six months ended June 30, 2003,
the net loss from continuing operations was ($794,791). Approximately $474,609
of the loss was attributable to non-cash charges. After taking into account the
non-cash items included in that loss, our cash requirements for continuing
operations were approximately $320,182. In addition, we repaid $75,913 in
principal amount of notes and used $20,764 in discontinued operations, bringing
total cash requirements to $416,859. To cover our cash requirements, we received
$90,000 from 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 $14,385 and drew down $179,032 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 our anticipated increase in the stock's trading
volume 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.
PART
II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal
Proceedings
On May 8, 2003, we filed a declaratory judgment lawsuit
in the 348th state district court of Tarrant County, Texas against
Legg Mason Wood Walker Incorporated and the Depository & Clearing
Corporation, now pending as cause number 348-198792-03. In this suit, we refer
to the district court’s prior ruling that our cancellation of shares of
the company’s common stock formerly in the name of William E. K. Hathaway
II c/o Olympic Holdings, L.L.C. was proper, and in this suit we seek a further
judicial determination that Hathaway’s subsequent endorsement of his
certificate to these companies was ineffective, as the certificate was no longer
genuine and could not be registered, and further due to other alleged
irregularities, resulting in our having no liability to these companies. We
subsequently dismissed Depository and Clearing Corporation from the lawsuit
without prejudice. On July 2, 2003, Legg Mason counterclaimed against us for
the sum of $277,855, representing the costs Legg Mason endured when required to
purchase 700,000 shares of our stock on the open market to cover its short
position resulting from our transfer agent’s confiscation of the
certificate originally issued to Mr. Hathaway. We believe the counterclaim has
no merit, due to the district court’s prior ruling, and our interpretation
and that of our legal counsel of the applicable provisions of the Uniform
Commercial Code, which provide that Legg Mason’s remedy is against Mr.
Hathaway and not
us.
