INTERNATIONAL DISPENSING CORPORATION
(A Development Stage Company)
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Information as of and for the period ended March 31,
1999 is unaudited)
1. THE COMPANY AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The balance sheet as of March 31, 1999 and statements of operations and
statements of cash flows for the three months then ended have been prepared by
International Dispensing Corporation (the "Company") without audit. The results
should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes
thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year
ended December 31, 1998. Results of operations for the three month period is not
necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year. Interim
statements are prepared on a basis consistent with year end statements.
In the opinion of management, the unaudited interim financial statements
furnished herein include all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of
the results of operations of the Company. All such adjustments are of a normal
recurring nature.
2. GOING CONCERN
The Company's development stage activities have resulted in an accumulated
deficit from inception to March 31, 1999, in excess of $8.8 million (including a
discontinued operation in China of $844,000, see Note 3), and losses are
continuing. Since its inception, the Company has not generated any revenue. The
Company's primary source of funds since inception has been from the sale of its
common stock. Consequently, there is doubt about the Company's ability to
continue as a going concern. Management is attempting to raise additional
capital through a private placement of securities to provide funding to allow it
to continue development of its licensed technology. Notwithstanding, the Company
believes that with the completion of the production injection mold per its
Gravity Feed Valve Assembly, scheduled for the third quarter of 1999, it will
generate sales revenue in the fourth quarter of 1999.
3. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
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 was for an initial term of ten years. The Company had opened a
representative office in China to promote the sales of Well Men products and to
establish the name of the Company. The Company incurred cumulative expenses of
approximately $844,000 related to the opening and maintaining of the
representative office in China, merchandise shipped to China, and general and
administrative expenses.
6
<PAGE>
In December 1998, Well Men materially breached its agreement with the
Company by selling Well Men water heaters directly in China. In addition, Well
Men had refused to pay for any of the products provided to it. As a result of
this breach and the Company's inability to obtain payment from Well Men, the
Company discontinued this operation and wrote-off all related receivables
resulting in a loss of $719,000 in 1998. In the first quarter of 1998, the
Company's results of operations have been classified as discontinued operations.
It is the Company's intent to pursue payment of reimbursement of expenses
incurred in the Company's China undertaking from Well Men.
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
7
<PAGE>
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 has been
completed. Initial prototype Valve Assemblies have been produced and subjected
to independent laboratory testing. Such laboratory testing is continuing. In
addition, the Company has supplied specific prototype Systems to customers for
consumer testing. Additional customers will also be supplied with prototype
systems.
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.
In 1998 the Company received two orders for Well Men products in China. The
first order was for 2,750 water heaters and 11,000 pitchers, which were
delivered to China in April pursuant to a Sale/Purchase Contract between the
Company and Guangdon Rixin Industrial Development Corporation, a Chinese
Government authorized Importer/Exporter ("Rixin"). The Company incurred a cost
of $217,250 for these goods and recorded revenues of $332,750 for the sale to
Rixin. The second order was for 5,000 water heaters placed in August for
delivery to China by December 31, 1998. The $275,000 cost of these units and the
related sales revenue of $375,000 was reflected as an account payable and an
account receivable, respectively. In December of 1998, Rixin canceled the second
order. Rixin has yet to make payment on the first order.
In December of 1998, Well Men materially breached its agreement with the
Company by selling Well Men water heaters directly in China. As a result of this
breach, the Company has discontinued its operations in China, and has taken a
charge in the fourth quarter of 1998 of $718,926 representing costs and expenses
incurred by the Company in its China venture, and has fully reversed the
$332,750 due from Rixin in the fourth quarter 1998 as well.

<PAGE>
The Company intends to pursue payment of the $332,750 receivable from Rixin
as well as reimbursement from Well Men of expenses incurred by the Company in
its China venture.
RESULT OF OPERATIONS
Three Months Ended March 31, 1999 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 1998
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Revenue - The Company has not generated any revenue since its inception.
Operating Expenses - For the three months ended March 31, 1999, the Company
had operating expenses of $277,771, which included $78,419 in research and
development related expenses, versus operating expenses of $302,826 for the
three month period ended March 31, 1998. This decrease of $25,055, or 8.3% over
the comparable period last year is due primarily to a reduction in travel
expenses and a reduction in payroll cost as the result of the termination of
employment of one employee.
Net Loss - For the three months ended March 31, 1999, the Company had a net
loss of $213,253 versus a net loss of $248,170 for the three months ended March
31, 1998. This decrease in net loss of $34,917, or 14.1% over the comparable
period last year, is due primarily to the reduction in operating expenses.
The Company has reported a net loss from operations of $ 4,849,213 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,
1999. The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its
ability to obtain additional financing and to produce and market its products.
As of March 31, 1999, the Company had liquid assets of $1,040,269.
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.
9
<PAGE>
As of March 31, 1999, the Company had working capital of $1,006,331. During
the first quarter of Fiscal 1999, the Company was spending at a rate of
approximately $92,500 per month. The Company expects that such rate will
increase to approximately $130,000 per month commencing in the third quarter of
Fiscal 1999. Such increase will be primarily due to the Company's leasing of a
production mold for the production of the Valve Assemblies. Therefore, the
Company expects that it will require additional capital to finance its
operations after the third quarter of Fiscal 1999.
The Company is seeking a minimum of $1.5 million in financing. If the
Company is not able to obtain additional funds on terms and conditions
satisfactory to the Company, the Company will have to scale back its research
and development activities.
