NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 1999 Unaudited
1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements at March
31, 1999 have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form
10-QSB and reflect all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are
necessary for a fair presentation of financial position as of March 31, 1999 and
results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998 and
cumulative. All adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The results of
operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to
be expected for a full year. The statements should be read in conjunction with
the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto for the year ended
December 31, 1998 included in the company's Registrations Statement Form SB-2
filing and 10-KSB.
2. Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.
BUSINESS
American Access Technologies, Inc. develops specialized products for the
telecommunications industry. The company manufactures and distributes several
models of Zone Cabling Termination Cabinets (the "Product") to the
telecommunications industry. The Product helps manage and route wiring and
cabling used in voice, computer and data transmission systems throughout the
world.
Omega Metals, Inc. ("Omega"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, shears
and molds metal and manufactures metal-formed product for customers principally
in Florida and Georgia. Omega manufactures the Company's Product.
TERMINATION OF DEVELOPMENT STAGE
The Company was incorporated on October 21, 1996. Through November, 1998, the
Company had been principally engaged in organizational activities, the promotion
of its product and raising capital. Planned operations, as described above, had
commenced but revenue generated was not considered significant in relation to
the Company's business plan. Accordingly, the Company was considered to be in
the development stage, through the date of acquisition of Omega Metals, Inc. on
November 11, 1198.
Omega is a mature company, which has been in the operating stage for a number of
years with an established history of revenue and profits, significantly larger
than those of AAT. Accordingly, effective upon the acquisition of Omega, the
Company is no longer considered to be a development stage enterprise, and the
accompanying financial statements are presented as those of an established
operating enterprise.
NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE
In 1997, the Company adopted Statements of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS)
No. 128, "Earnings per Share" which requires the presentation of both basic and
diluted earnings (loss) per share.
Basic net loss per common share has been computed based upon the weighted
average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the periods. The
shares of common stock issued in connection with the stock split effected in
5
<PAGE>
February 1997, have been considered outstanding for all periods. In addition,
the shares of common stock issued to a Director in February 1997, prior to an
initial registration of the Company's common stock and at a price at that time
have been treated as outstanding during the entire period, pursuant to the
Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletins. The computation
of earnings per share is reflected in the following schedule:

3. Contingencies
LITIGATION SETTLED
The Company was a defendant in a suit filed in January 1998 in
the 18th Judicial Circuit Court of Florida by Steve R. Jones, the Company's
president from April to August 1997. Jones sought damages and a declaratory
judgment as to the enforceability of a consulting agreement with the Company.
On March 17, 1999, this suit was settled in mediation.
American Access will receive no consultant agreement services from Mr. Jones,
and Mr. Jones will receive no compensation for such services. Mr. Jones will
receive certain stock options from registrant and will continue to be subject to
the non-competition and confidentiality provisions of his consultant agreement.
ITEM 2.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1999 COMPARED WITH THE THREE MONTHS ENDED
MARCH 31, 1998
REVENUES
Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 1999 increased by
$467,348 or 56.87% to $1,290,062 as compared to $822,714 for the three months
ended March 31, 1998. The parent company, American Access Technologies, Inc.,
was still in the development stage for the first quarter ended March 31, 1998,
and revenues were only $129,799. In the first quarter for the year ended March
31, 1999, revenues increased by $205,954 to $333,573. The company's subsidiary,
Omega Metal Inc., also had an increase in revenues of $261,394.
COSTS AND EXPENSES
Direct costs represent the cost incurred by the Company to have its
products manufactured and assembled. These costs represented 38.9% of revenues
6
<PAGE>
for the three months ended March 31, 1999, and 47.4% of revenues for the three
months ended March 31, 1998. The decrease in the direct costs is mainly
attributed to Omega Metals Inc. Due to a change in the customer mix, revenues
generated for March 31, 1999 required less direct labor and material costs than
for the previous year's quarter ended March 31, 1998.
Selling, General and Administrative expenses increased by $189,126 to
$727,677 for the three months ended March 31, 1999 compared to $538,551 for the
three months ended March 31, 1998. This increase was the result of costs
associated with the continued development growth of the company including
marketing and promotion, management costs, and professional fees associated with
the required filings.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's operating activities provided cash of $104,673 during the
three months ended March 31, 1999 as compared to $120,100 during the three
months ended March 31, 1998.
The Company's operating and capital requirements in connection with its
operations have been and will continue to be significant. Based on its current
plans, the Company anticipates that revenues earned from product sales will be
the primary source of funds for operating activities. The Company believes that
revenues in addition to existing cash and cash equivalents remaining from
proceeds of it private offering, will be sufficient to meet its capital and
liquidity needs for the next 12 months. The Company also believes that cash
required to fulfill purchase orders will be available through bank borrowings or
factoring, if required. The company's primary customers are substantial
corporations with credit ratings that will support such credit arrangements.
Management's plans include the following:
1. The Company has arranged for marketing in association with
manufacturers and distributors of telecommunications equipment,
which will enable the Company to obtain orders for its products
with a minimal expenditure of the Company's resources. The Company
is presently organizing a manufacture's rep program to assist in
the distribution of their equipment.
2. The Company has arranged for manufacture of its products by
purchasing the manufacturer in October, 1998, in order to minimize
the financial requirements necessary for production.
3. The company believes that it can acquire working capital through
sale of additional securities (including exercise of outstanding
warrants), or borrowings, including bank borrowing, in view of the
nature of its customer base. Nevertheless, the Company continues
to be subject to a number of risk factors, including the
uncertainty of market acceptance for its product line, the need
for additional funds, competition, technological obsolescence and
the difficulties faced by start up companies in general.
