ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
OVERVIEW
Pro Net Link is a development stage corporation formed in July 1997 with a
limited operating history. Pro Net Link is a business-to-business ("B2B") firm
that is focused on facilitating the conduct of international trade through
various tools and services accessible through its Internet Website. It
additionally delivers international trade-related news, programming and services
through its Website. Sources of revenue to date include registered "premium"
user fees, banner advertising and, most recently, our Leaders in Global Trade
program.
We have not generated profits since our mid-1997 start-up. Substantial expenses
have been incurred since inception associated with our corporate formation, the
conduct of market research, the building of an operating infrastructure, product
development, solicitation of users, and the design, development and promotion of
our Website and related services. Pro Net Link's revenues have been limited.
Since inception, Pro Net Link has incurred significant losses, resulting in an
accumulated deficit of $8,762,309 as at September 30, 2000.
An evaluation of our prospects must be considered in light of the risks
associated with companies in the early stages of development, particularly for
ones in the rapidly evolving B2B Internet marketplace. Certain risks for Pro Net
Link include, but are not limited to, having an unproven business model, capital
requirements and, if the Company successfully expands its operations, management
of growth. To address these risks, we must, among other things, continue to
develop and successfully execute our business and marketing plans, continue to
expand and otherwise improve our Website and enhance our operating
infrastructure. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in
addressing these risks, and the failure to do so could prevent Pro Net Link from
generating profitable operations.
We believe that our success will depend, in large part, on our ability to create
market awareness and acceptance for our products, to increase sustainable
sources of revenue, to raise additional operating capital, to enhance and expand
our operations, to build technology and non-technology infrastructures and to
continue product research and development. Related to these considerations, in
fiscal year 2001, we are focused on supplementing our revenue base and realizing
a return on the product development expenditures incurred to date by creating or
penetrating markets for our various content remarketing, Leaders in Global
Trade, Virtual Trade Show and other products that we believe are sufficiently
developed to market. Website enhancement and the development of additional
products and technology innovations also characterize our fiscal 2001 efforts.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Three months ended September 30, 2000 and September 30, 1999
Revenues. As noted, during the three month periods ended September 30, 2000 and
September 30, 1999, Pro Net Link was a development stage enterprise.
Accordingly, it engaged in limited revenue generating operations. Revenue
increased from $1,802 for the three months ended September 30, 1999 to $2,130
for the three months ended September 30, 2000.
Expenses. Total expenses increased from $660,047 for the three months ended
September 30, 1999 to $938,971 for the three months ended September 30, 2000,
resulting in a net loss of $936,861 for the current period, compared to a loss
of $658,245 for the previous period. The increase in expenses was primarily
attributable to an increase in compensation, legal and related costs associated
with the hiring of further staff in the areas of executive management,
technology development and maintenance and sales and marketing.
On August 8, 2000, Pro Net Link entered into an agreement with GlobalNet
Venture Partners, Inc., to provide executive management and marketing services
to the Company. This relationship was terminated on September 28, 2000.
Compensation and legal expenses related to the GlobalNet Venture Partners, Inc.,
relationship were approximately $250,000 for the quarterly period ended
September 30, 2000, and thus account for the principal increase in expense
between the two periods.
-5-
<PAGE> 8
Additional cost increases primarily relate to higher legal and accounting fees
attributable to filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission associated
with our becoming a "reporting company" pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934. Expenses attributable to Website development declined, as in-house
staff performed many of the development and maintenance functions previously
outsourced.
INFLATION
Inflationary factors did not directly bear on our operations during the fiscal
periods since our inception.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Pro Net Link has generated negative cash flows from operations in all periods
since its inception in July 1997. At September 30, 2000, our net cash position
of $220,058 represented an increase of $172,670, compared to June 30, 2000.
During the three months ended September 30, 2000, net negative cash from
operations of $927,330 primarily reflected our $936,861 net loss in the period.
Net cash provided by financing during this period was $1,100,000 comprised of a
repayment of bank debt of $400,000 and of new loans from a shareholder of
$1,500,000 as follows:
On August 8, 2000, Pro Net Link's President, Jean Pierre
Collardeau, loaned Pro Net Link an aggregate of $1,000,000
in consideration of the issuance of a convertible note
bearing interest at 12% per annum and due August 8, 2001.
The note is convertible into shares of the Company's common
stock at $1.89 per share, subject to adjustments as defined
in the convertible note. On October 10, 2000, the note
maturity date was extended by one year to August 8, 2002.
In September, 2000, Pro Net Link's President, Jean Pierre
Collardeau, loaned Pro Net Link $500,000. In consideration
of the aforesaid loan, Pro Net Link issued a 12% Note to
Jean Pierre Collardeau, dated October 10, 2000. Under this
note, the loan is repayable on October 12, 2001 and bears
interest at the Note of 12% per annum.
Subsequent to September 30, 2000, Pro Net Link entered into arrangements to
obtain further debt and equity capital as follows:
On October 10, 2000, Pro Net Link sold 666,667 of its shares
of common stock in a private placement for $500,000.
On October 10, 2000, the Company and its President entered
into a Note Purchase Agreement (the "Agreement"). Pursuant
to the Agreement, subject to certain conditions, the
President is obligated to lend the Company up to an
aggregate principal amount of $2,000,000. The commitment
terminates at the earlier of October 10, 2001 or the date by
which the cumulative principal amount of borrowings under
the Agreement reaches $2 million. On the date that the
commitment terminates, amounts then outstanding will be
combined into one note that will be due in two years.
Borrowings will bear interest at 12% per annum.
It is projected that the arrangements described above will provide sufficient
capital resources to meet our operating needs through September 30, 2001.
We currently estimate that our base cash requirements for the next 12 months,
which will include operating and marketing expenses, in addition to further
technology and product development, will approximate $2,500,000. Although we
have no material commitments during the next 12 months or beyond, the Company
expects that it will continue to have substantial capital requirements in
connection with the continued development, implementation and marketing of its
products and services. There can be no assurances that Pro Net Link will
attain break-even cash flow in any future periods.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT
MARKET RISK
INTEREST RATE RISK AND USE OF DERIVATIVES
During fiscal year 2000, Pro Net Link had available to it a $500,000 secured
bank line of credit. Indebtedness under the revolving credit facility was priced
on a floating interest rate basis and, accordingly, we were subject to a risk of
rising interest rates. Outstanding liabilities under the facility were repaid on
August 2, 2000 and we allowed the facility to lapse on August 6, 2000. On
October 10, 2000, Pro Net Link entered into a Note Purchase Agreement with its
President, Jean Pierre Collardeau, pursuant to which he is obligated to lend the
Company up to an aggregate amount of $2,000,000. To date, Mr. Collardeau has not
funded any loans to the Company under this agreement. Under our current risk
management policies we do not contemplate using interest rate derivative
instruments to manage exposure to rate changes. Since indebtedness under our
note purchase facility with Mr. Collardeau does not bear floating interest
rates, we do not run the risk that our cost of capital under the facility will
fluctuate based upon changes in interest rates.
