ITEM 2
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
The Company was incorporated in Delaware in October 1995 under the name
ReSeal Food Dispensing Systems, Inc. and changed its name to International
Dispensing Corporation on September 12, 1996. The Company was formed primarily
for the purpose of commercializing and marketing certain proprietary and
patented delivery and dispensing technologies (the "Technologies") licensed from
ReSeal International Corporation ("RIC"), which Technologies consist of barrier
oriented, closed delivery and dispensing systems (the "Systems") composed of:
(i) self-adjusting reservoir bodies, (ii) patented, barrier capable,
unidirectional flow valves (the "Valve Assemblies"), and (iii) as required,
mechanisms to activate and facilitate the product delivery and flow functions.
When utilized in dispensing flowable food and beverage products like milk,
juice, wine, etc., the Systems are designed to maintain the sterility, purity
and freshness of such products throughout its use life, with the possibility of
eliminating or reducing the need for adding preservatives to the product to keep
it fresh and/or refrigeration throughout its use life. The self-adjusting
reservoir body of a System is designed to shrink in proportion to the amount of
the product being dispensed through the Valve Assembly. The Valve Assemblies are
designed to dispense a product without letting either air or contaminants flow
back into the internal reservoir in which the remaining product is held. The
Company believes that by maintaining the purity of the product that remains in
the container, the Systems will provide higher levels of freshness for
significantly longer periods of time and, if preservatives are eliminated, the
level of purity, of a wide array of packaged flowable products.
The Company is primarily focusing its marketing activities on the
application of the licensed technologies in the Field of Use (as defined below)
as set forth in that certain Amended and Restated License Agreement, between the
Company and RIC, which encompasses the food and beverage industries as broadly
defined. "Field Of Use" means the use of the Technology to make, use, lease,
sell or distribute (a) any food or beverage dispensers or containers that embody
the Technology or the manufacture, use, lease, sale or distribution of which
uses the Technology (collectively the "Product") intended for use in an
industrial or commercial place of business in the preparation of food or
beverage at such place of business, (b) any food or beverage Product intended
for use in an industrial or commercial place of business by a customer
purchasing food or beverage at such place of business for consumption on or off
the premises of such place of business, or (c) any food or beverage Product
intended to be sold to or by food or beverage wholesale price discounters,
retailers and similar establishments that sell food or beverage to consumers.
Within such categories, the applications of the licensed technologies can be
divided into a number of potential markets, including but not limited to the
following: (i) beverages, which include milk/cream, coffee, tea (hot and cold),
hot chocolate, juices, sweeteners, baby formula, baby food (in puree form),
wines and water; (ii) foods, which include soups, liquid eggs, liquid butter,
sauces, yogurt, melted cheese (nachos), baby foods and hot toppings in liquid
form; and (iii) condiments, which include ketchup, barbecue sauce, mayonnaise,
salad dressing, oils and mustard.
The prototype tooling for production of prototype Valve Assemblies will
be completed in the second quarter of 1998. Upon production of initial prototype
Valve Assemblies, also anticipated to be completed in the second quarter, such
Valve Assemblies will be subjected to independent laboratory
<PAGE>
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
(continued)
testing. In addition, the Company will supply specific prototype Systems to
customers for consumer testing.
On November 10, 1997, the Company entered into a Joint Systems
Development Agreement with Packaging Systems, L.L.C., the parent company of
Rapak, Inc. The resulting products of this strategic alliance will be Bag-in-Box
with unique Valve/Pump Technology food and beverage delivery systems that will
be marketed to the food and beverage industries throughout the United States.
On December 23, 1997, the Company entered into an agreement with Well
Men Industrial Company Limited, a Hong Kong registered corporation ("Well Men"),
pursuant to which Well Men granted to the Company an exclusive right to market
and sell in China certain Well Men products. Well Men also assigned to the
Company for the purpose of commercializing such Well Men products, all of Well
Men's patents and patent applications relating to such Well Men products. The
agreement is for an initial term of ten years. The Company has opened a
representative office in China to promote the sales of these products and to
establish the name of the Company. Operations commenced in March, 1998.
Result of Operations
In March, 1998, the Company had revenues of $57,456, all of which were
derived from the sale of Well Men products in China. Such revenues were the
first generated by the Company since its inception. The Company anticipates
steadily increasing revenues from the sale of Well Men Products during the next
12 months.
In addition, the Company has engaged in on-going marketing discussions
with a number of potential strategic alliance partners, licensees and end users
of the Technologies. In this regard, discussions have been conducted with major
companies in Canada, Europe, Australia and the United States to explore
opportunities in the product categories.
The Company incurred General and Administrative expenses of $301,326 in
the quarter ended March 31, 1998 versus General and Administrative expenses of
$180,316 for the quarter ended March 31, 1997. This increase of $121,010 over
the comparable period last year is due primarily to the Company's accelerated
investment in research and development of its core technology, and its start-up
costs associated with the Well Men Agreement.
The Company has reported a net loss from operations of $ 2,945,740
since inception.
Financial Condition
As reflected in the financial statements, the Company has experienced
continuing net losses and negative cash flows from operations through March 31,
1998. The Company's continuing existence
<PAGE>
is dependent on its ability to attain profitable operations. As of March 31,
1998, the Company had liquid assets of $2,455,749.
In a private placement concluded in February 1996, the Company obtained
aggregate capital of $2,250,000 through the issuance by the Company of
convertible notes, options and the sale of Common Stock.
In October 1996, the Company sold, in an initial public offering,
833,334 Units, each Unit consisting of two shares of Common Stock and two
redeemable Class A purchase warrants for $12.00 per Unit. Each warrant entitles
the holder to purchase one share of the Company's Common Stock for $7.00 during
the four year period commencing October 3, 1997. The warrants are redeemable by
the Company at $.05 per warrant any time after October 3, 1997 if certain
conditions are met. The net proceeds, which the Company received from the
offering, amounted to approximately $8.8 million.
The Company believes that it has adequate funds available to conduct
and continue its business and does not foresee needing to raise additional funds
in the next 12 months.
