NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying condensed financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principals for interim
financial information and with instructions to Form 10-QSB. Accordingly, they do
not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted
accounting principals for complete financial statements. In the opinion of
management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered
necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The results of operations
for the three-month and six-month period ended January 31, 1999 are not
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ended July 31,
1999. The condensed interim financial statements should be read in conjunction
with the audited financial statements and notes, contained in the Company's
Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year-end July 31, 1998.
2. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE
Accounts receivable consisted of the following:
January 31, 1999
----------------
Trade accounts receivable $776,517
Allowance for doubtful accounts (75,000)
--------
Total $701,517
========
Included in accounts receivable at January 31, 1999 are $200,000 of trade
receivable from Lernout and Hauspie Speech Products and $150,000 from Veritel
Corporation as part of a Joint Development Agreement.
3. INVENTORIES
Inventories are stated as the lower of cost or market. Cost is
determined using the first-in first-out method.
January 31, 1999
----------------
Computer components $340,918
Allowance for obsolescence (30,000)
--------
Total $310,918
========
4. NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE
In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share," which simplifies the standards for
computing earnings per share ("EPS") previously found in APB No. 15, "Earnings
Per Share," It replaces the presentation of primary EPS with a presentation
of basic EPS. It also requires dual presentation of basic and diluted EPS on
the face of the income statement for all entities with complex capital
structures and requires a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the
diluted EPS computation. The Company adopted SFAS No. 128 in January 1998 and
its implementation did not have a material effect on the financial statements.
6
<PAGE> 7
Net loss per common share (basic and diluted) is based on the net
loss divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during
each year.
On February 1, 1999 the Company granted options to purchase 420,000
shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $ 3.875 per share
to directors and employees of the Company. The options have been granted at
market value.
The Company also granted options to purchase 119,600 shares of the
Company's common stock at fair market value to certain employees, pursuant to
commitment letters to such employees.
The Company's potentially issuable shares of common stock pursuant
to outstanding stock purchase options and warrants (totaling 1,207,876 with
prices, ranging from $0.50 to $7.00) are excluded from the Company's
diluted computation as their effect would be antidilutive to the Company's net
loss per share.
5. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company has entered into a Licensing Agreement and
Distribution Agreement with Veritel Corporation. Such Agreements grant the
Company rights to use certain software object code and source code in the
development of its products in exchange for non-refundable payments totaling
$500,000 for non-recurring engineering fees, derivative rights and distribution
rights. As of January 31, 1999, the Company paid Veritel Corporation a total of
$500,000.

<PAGE> 8
OVERVIEW
Registry Magic(R) Incorporated commercializes speech recognition
technologies through the design, development and marketing of proprietary
intellectual property, products and services. The Company's products and
technology available, or under development, allow a user to speak into a
telephone or to a computer in a natural and conversational manner. In turn,
these products listen, understand and respond by performing employee tasks,
retrieving information or processing transactions.
The Company's technologies, products and services, among other
attributes, are designed to (i) substantially eliminate the need for telephone
touch-tone menus, (ii) allow for the automation of telephone systems
internationally where touch-tone technology may not be prevalent, (iii) reduce a
company's operational expenses by performing repetitive employee tasks or
improving employee productivity and (iv) extend the reach of the Internet, or
other databases and applications, from any telephone without having to be in
front of a personal computer or having personal computer skills.
The Company's business strategy is to focus long-term on three distinct
business areas. These business areas include (i) the marketing of products that
reside at a customers location to produce revenue from the sale and support of
the products, (ii) the marketing of technology to original equipment
manufacturers to produce recurring royalty revenue from license fees and (iii)
the provision of a variety of services, that utilize the Company's technologies
and products, to produce revenue on a transaction or recurring basis based on
usage. These business areas are referred to as (i) product sales, (ii)
technology licensing and (iii) teleservices respectively.
In the product sales business area, the Company has recently entered
into national distribution or "teaming" agreements with Entex Information
Services, Homisco/Voicenet, Inter-Tel Corporate, Lucent Technologies, Teleco as
well as a number of regional dealers. Certain of these distributors and dealers
have ordered or installed their "in-house" units and are working with the
Company to educate and assist their sales organizations to develop plans to
promote the product to their customers.
In the technology licensing business area, the Company is in active
discussions with telecommunication original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) to
provide technology to "speech enable" their next generation of voicemail
systems. In addition to recurring royalty revenue, it is the objective of the
Company to receive attribution for the Company's Virtual Operator brand within
the products of these OEMs.
In the teleservices business area, the Company launched a service
bureau offering referred to as Virtual Employee(R) Teleservices. To support this
business, the Company has entered into a subcontracting agreement which allows
the service bureau to process over one thousand calls simultaneously. The
Company has begun to provide Virtual Employee(R) teleservices to Office Depot
for catalog ordering and has begun to receive revenue on a transaction basis.
Teleservices represents a minimal amount of the Company's current revenues. The
Company is seeking to increase revenues from Internet based services in the
future.
8
<PAGE> 9
Most recently, the Company has announced relationships with a number of
industry leaders to assist with the development of the Company's future Internet
related offerings. The Company is working with Microsoft Corporation and their
new Web-based IVR technology that they intend to introduce in the future. The
Company also announced it had joined, along with sixteen other companies,
including Motorola, AT&T and Lucent Technologies, in an effort to create a
standard for speech recognition for the Internet.
While the Company is beginning to generate limited sales revenue and
limited recurring royalty revenues, and anticipates continued increased revenues
during its 1999 fiscal year, the Company's expenses will continue to exceed
revenues for at least the remainder of the current fiscal year ending July 31,
1999. There can be no assurance that product sales, technology licensing or
teleservices will generate sufficient revenues to enable the Company to operate
profitably during its 1999 fiscal year or thereafter.
The Company is subject to all of the risks inherent in the
establishment of a new business enterprise in an emerging technology area. To
address these risks, the Company must, among other things, continue to enhance
its technologies and products, increase the number of key customer
installations, enter into successful distribution arrangements, expand into the
international market, respond to competitive developments, and attract, retain
and motivate qualified executive and other personnel. Failure to achieve one or
more of these goals could have material adverse effect upon the Company's
business, operating results and financial condition.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Since its inception in October 1995, the Company's efforts have
been principally devoted to research, development and design of products,
marketing activities and raising capital.
For the three months ended January 31, 1999, product sales were
$788,523 as compared to $0 for the three months ended January 31, 1998, of which
$150,000 was received from the Joint Development Agreement with Veritel
Corporation. For the six months ended January 31, 1999 product sales were
$1,070,562 as compared to $0 for the six months ended January 31, 1998, of which
$300,000 was received from the Joint Development Agreement with Veritel
Corporation as described hereafter.
The Company entered into a Joint Development Agreement with Veritel
Corporation to develop an interface to allow certain future Company products to
be bundled with Veritel products. Veritel Corporation has agreed to pay the
Company a total of $500,000 for the development of such technologies. As of
January 31, 1999, the Company has a recorded total of $300,000 of development
fees, of which $150,000 was recorded as revenue for the quarter ended January
31, 1999. Such amounts do not represent recurring revenue.
The Company also entered into a Virtual Operator Site Licensing
Agreement with Lernout & Hauspie Speech Products for $200,000. Such Licensing
Agreement provides to Lernout & Hauspie the right to install and use the Virtual
Operator software within an unlimited number of Lernout & Hauspie worldwide
company locations. Such amounts have been recorded as product sales as of
January 31, 1999, and do not represent recurring revenue.
9
<PAGE> 10
During this period, the Company intends to focus its efforts on
enhancing its Virtual Operator product and refining two of its telephone-based
speech recognition prototypes, Virtual Dialer(TM) and Virtual Assistant(TM),
which it intends to introduce during calendar year 1999. It will also continue
to implement its sales and marketing program for further developing distribution
network initially in North America and thereafter in South America and Europe.
During the initial six months of the current fiscal year, unit Product
sales have consisted of the Company's Virtual Operator product, and sales of its
Virtual Operator product are expected to represent a substantial portion of the
Company's unit product sales for the remainder of the 1999 fiscal year. Sales
will be achieved primarily through the Company's telecommunications
dealer/interconnect network, telecom distributors employing their own
distribution organizations, computer/CTI distributors and their networks of
value added resellers and system integrators, and through NT Server Based
Telecommunications OEM Licensing agreements.
For the three months ended January 31, 1999, cost of goods sold
amounted to $228,954 on sales of $788,523, representing hardware costs
associated with the Company's Virtual Operator. For the six months ended January
31, 1999, cost of goods sold amounted to $332,649 on sales of $1,070,562,
representing hardware costs associated with the Company's Virtual Operator. In
the first part of the fiscal year, the Company reduced product-manufacturing
cost of the Virtual Operator by approximately 60%. As a result of additional new
technology and decreased manufacturing costs, the Company has reduced its
published dealer pricing by approximately 50%. The Company believes that
opportunities for product sales will increase as a result of such reduced
pricing.
General and administrative expense increased by $708,489 to $1,020,231
for the three months ended January 31, 1999 from $311,736 for the three months
ended January 31, 1998. General and administrative expense increased by
$1,237,938 to $1,769,686 for the six months ended January 31, 1999 from $531,748
for the six months ended January 31, 1998. These increases were due to
additional employees hired to market and sell the Virtual Operator, additional
office support staff and increased legal and accountants fees incurred in
connection with the Company's expanding activities and patent applications. The
Company does not anticipate the level of general and administrative expense will
increase substantially above the current level on a quarterly basis for the
remainder of the current fiscal year.
Research and development expenses for the three months ended January
31, 1999 were $391,307 compared to $252,736 for the three months ended January
31, 1998, an increase of $ 138,571. Research and development expenses for the
six months ended January 31, 1999 were $763,427 compared to $441,530 for the six
months ended January 31, 1998, an increase of $ 321,897. These increases were
due to continued enhancement of the Company's Virtual Operator product, the
development of other product and service prototypes, and expenses related to the
Company's performance of development contracts. Research and development
expenses incurred in the course of establishing technological feasibility of the
Company's software applications have been charged to operations pursuant to
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards "SFAS" No. 86 "Accounting for the
Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed".
10
<PAGE> 11
Royalty expenses for the three months ended January 31, 1999
were $300,000. Royalty expenses for the six months ended January 31, 1999
were $500,000. These amounts represent non-refundable payments to Veritel
Corporation for non-recurring engineering fees for certain software object code
and software source code for the development and distribution of personal
computer software products that utilize speaker verification and file encryption
technologies. The Company expensed such non-recurring engineering fees in the
absence of any contracts for the sale of its products at the time of payment.
Interest income net for the three months ended January 31, 1999
amounted to $96,754 compared to $3,521 for the three months ended January 31,
1998. Interest income for the six months ended January 31, 1999 amounted to
$217,417 compared to interest income of $3,444 for the six months ended January
31, 1998.The increase in interest income was due to the completion of the
Company's Initial Public Offering and receipt of approximately $11,300,000 in
net proceeds. Such funds are invested in money market accounts and high grade
short-term corporate paper.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As of January 31, 1999, the Company had $7,087,349 in cash and cash
equivalents. The Company does not have any available lines of credit. Since
inception, and until completition of the Company's public offering in June 1998,
the Company financed its operations through loans from the Company's Chairman
and his wife and from private placements of both debt and equity. On June 2,
1998, the Company closed an initial public offering of Common Stock. The Company
offered and sold 1,600,000 shares of Common Stock at an initial public offering
price of $7.25 per share, raising proceeds, net of offering costs, of
approximately $9,900,000. On June 26, 1998 the Company closed on the
underwriting over-allotment. The Company sold an additional 220,000 shares of
Common Stock at an initial public offering price of $7.25 per share, raising
proceeds, net of offering costs of approximately $1,400,000
Net cash used in operating activities increased by $2,033,265 to
$2,917,471 from $884,206 for the six months ended January 31, 1998. Net cash
used in operating activities primarily related to the Company's continued
expansion of its research and development and sales and marketing efforts.
Net cash used in investing activities during the six months ended
January 31, 1999 and 1998 was $247,691 and $116,192 respectively. The
expenditures primarily related to purchases of computer equipment and patent
costs.
Net cash from financing activities during the six months ended January
31, 1998 amounted to $901,063. The Company received net proceeds of $997,159
from the issuance of 200,000 shares of common stock at $5.00 per share. The
Company incurred $96,096 of costs related to its initial public offerings during
this period.
IMPACT OF THE YEAR 2000 ON COMPANY PRODUCTS
Computers, software and other equipment utilizing microprocessors that
use only two digits to identify a year in a date field may be unable to process
accurately certain date-based information at or after the year 2000. The Company
recognizes the need to insure that its operations will not be adversely
11
<PAGE> 12
affected by Year 2000 software failures. Software failures due to processing
errors potentially arising from calculations using the year 2000 date are a
recognized risk, and the Company is addressing this issue on several different
fronts. The Company is in contact with its suppliers to assess their compliance.
There can be no assurance that there will not be a material adverse effect on
the Company if third parties do not convert their systems in a timely manner and
in a way that is compatible with the Company's systems. The Company believes
that its actions with suppliers will minimize these risks.
Finally, the Company has established an internal workforce to
coordinate solutions for the Year 2000 issue with a goal of having all its
products Year 2000 compliant by the end of the third quarter of fiscal 1999.
After evaluation of the responses from suppliers, which the Company anticipates
to complete in the third quarter of fiscal 1999, the Company will prepare a
contingency plan to mitigate such Year 2000 issues, if necessary.
Through January 31, 1999, the Company has not incurred material
expenses relating to Year 2000 compliance efforts and believes that the expenses
associated with completing its Year 2000 compliance plans will not have a
material adverse impact on the Company's operations. Internal and external
expenses specifically associated with modifying internal-use software for the
Year 2000 will be expensed as incurred. The Company's current estimates of the
amount of time and expenses necessary to implement and test its computer systems
are based on the facts and circumstances existing at this time. Nevertheless,
achieving Year 2000 compliance is dependent on many factors, some of which are
not completely within the Company's control. Should either the Company's
internal system or the internal systems of one or more significant vendors or
suppliers fail to achieve Year 2000 compliance, the Company's business and its
results of operations could be adversely affected.
YEAR 2000 IMPACT ON INTERNAL BUSINESS OPERATIONS
The Company uses a significant number of computer software programs and
operating systems in its internal operations, including applications used in
financial business systems and various administration functions. To the extent
that these software applications contain source code that is unable to
appropriately interpret the upcoming calendar year "2000", some level of
modification or even replacement of such source code or applications will be
necessary. The Company is in the process of identifying the software
applications that are not "Year 2000" compliant. Given the information known at
this time about the Company's systems, coupled with the Company's ongoing
efforts to upgrade or replace business critical systems as necessary, it is
currently not anticipated that these "Year 2000" costs will have a material
adverse impact on the Company's business, financial condition and results of
operations. However, the Company is still analyzing its software applications
and, to the extent they are not fully "Year 2000" compliant, there can be no
assurance that the costs necessary to update software or potential systems
interruptions would not have a material adverse effect on the Company's
business, financial condition and results of operations.
