MANAGEMENT's DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The Company notes that, except for the historical information contained
herein, the matters discussed below contain forward-looking statements
subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause the Company's actual
results to differ materially. Such risks and uncertainties include, but
are not limited to, various important competitive and technological
factors such as pricing pressures; as well as customers opting to
upgrade to newer or more fully featured products; changes in customer
order patterns, manufacturing considerations, including the maintenance
of margins in a declining-price environment as well as risk of inventory
obsolescence due to shifts in market demand and new product
introductions; and other risk factors listed from time to time in the
Company's reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission,
including, but not limited to, the report on Form 10-K for the year
ended September 30, 1997.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
During the quarter ended December 31, 1997 the Company devoted its
efforts to the licensing of WebberActive 4.0, consulting, the closing of
one large contract and one Letter of Intent. WebberActive 4.0 is a
channel creation and HTML content authoring tool with extensive dynamic
HTML and stylesheet support. This product is important because it
supports new Microsoft standards that will be used by Internet Explorer
4.0 and Windows 98. The company secured consulting contracts with four
new customers. These contracts range from private industry to
government entities. They involve the use of WebBase, WebberActive and
unannounced future products. A large WebBase license with a major
communications company was delivered at the end of December. It
involved an up front license fee, and per unit royalties.
In December 1997, a Letter of Intent to license software to a leading
software company was signed. The license will be worth $300,000 if the
final contract is signed, plus a quarterly maintenance fee. This is not
reflected in the financial figures shown.
Also, a sizable consulting contract with a multinational communications
company was negotiated. Most of this work will be done in the next two
quarters.
Revenues for the three months ended December 31, 1997 were the
result of sales of contract services, and license fees from our
software.
Revenues for the three month period ended December 31,1997 were
$286,419, down 19% from a comparable figure from the prior year of
$349,757. This is determined by the uneven effect from large licensing
deals falling in a quarter. Last year they fell into the December
quarter.
Cost of sales for the three months ended December 31,1997 was $96,450
compared to prior year periods of $41,295 reflecting increased time
spent by personnel on consulting contracts.
Advertising and promotion expenses decreased to $198 from the prior year
period's costs of $70,368. This decrease reflects management's decision
to postpone marketing efforts until the cash flow stabilizes.
General and administrative expenses decreased to $88,189 for the three
months ended December 31, 1997. The comparable figure for the prior
year is $171,620. These numbers reflect the decrease in personnel of
two officers and one marketing person and management's decision to
decrease operating costs.
Research and development was $26,756 for the three months ended December
31, 1997, compared to prior year figures of $49,830. Research and
development decreased because more time was spent on consulting
contracts.
Profit from operations was $74,826 for the three months ended December
31, 1997. The increased profits reflect management's decision to
decrease spending.
Deferred tax expense decreased proportionately with income to $36,000
from $8,700 for the three months ended December 31, 1997 and 1996
respectively. These numbers are a result change in accounting policy
which took effect FY94, and are not actual cash expenses.
LIQUIDITY:
At December 31, 1997 the Company reported working capital of $454,804
up from $411,451 due to a increase in accounts receivable. Net
stockholder's equity of $1,651,278, was up from $1,613,531 on September
30, 1997.
Accounts receivable of $410,987 was up at December 31,1997 from the
September 30, 1997 figure of $271,312. It is believed that all
receivables will be collected.
Net product development costs were $817,467 and $820,133 for the
periods ending December 31,1997 and September 30, 1997 respectively.
Management continues to believe in the commercial viability of the
products for which research costs are capitalized.
Accounts payable was $46,897 at December 31, 1997 compared to $33,174 at
September 30, 1997.
Accrued vacation was $55,362 at December 31,1997 compared to $57,413 at
September 30, 1997. Both figures represent less than 3% of total
assets.
