Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
Results of Operations nine months Ended October 31, 1995 Compared to nine months
Ended October 31, 1994 and three months ended October 31, 1995 compared to three
months ended October, 31 1994
Revenues for the current nine months of fiscal year 1995 increased $383,900 or
66.5% compared with the comparable period of the prior year. Revenues for the
three month period decreased $138,699 compared with the comparable period of the
prior year. The increase in revenues for the nine month period is attributable
to increased license and maintenance fees as a result of customer requests for
product updates, technical assistance and support.
Operating expenses as a percent of revenues for the nine month period was 100.2%
compared with 146% for the comparable period of the prior year. Operating
expense as a percent of revenues for the current three month period was 121%
compared with 66% for the prior year. The decrease in operating expenses, for
the nine month period, as a percent of revenues was primarily attributable to
the higher revenue volume and a reduction in technical support salaries, offset
by an increase in Selling and Administrative expenses.
The operating loss, before other income (expense) of $22,528 for the current
nine month period decreased $242,893 compared with the comparable period of the
prior year. Operating Loss, before other income (expense) $57,591 for the
current three month increased $199,272 compared with the operating income of
141,681 for the comparable period of the prior year.
Other income (expense) for the current nine month period was ($3,921) as
compared with ($3,994) for the comparable period of the prior year.
For the current nine month period, net loss of $26,449 or ($.00) cents per share
was incurred compared with a net loss of $269,415 or ($.04) cents per share a
decrease of $242,966. For the current three month period, a net loss of $58,891
or .00 cents per share was incurred compared with net income of $140,216 in the
comparable period for the prior year.
Major Customers
In the first nine months of 1995, IBM accounted for 47.19% of total
revenues. In the first nine months of 1994, IBM accounted for 13.9% of revenues.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At October 31, 1995 the Company had a negative working capital position of
$1,504,978 and has been experiencing cash flow problems.
Management of the company has taken various steps to correct this
situation. Overhead costs have been cut drastically as a result of staff
reductions and curtailment of all outside marketing and advertising costs. In
<PAGE>
addition, senior staff salaries were reduced and executive officers' salaries
were partly deferred. Secondly, Multi Soft broadened its product base into the
Windows environment and has made its Windows based products easier to learn and
use.
Multi Soft has entered into an International Software Licensing Agreement
with IBM which grants IBM the non-exclusive rights and license to market an
extended runtime version of Multi Soft's WCL product as an IBM logo product.
This IBM EXTENDED VERSION of Multi Soft's WCL is named IMS Client Server(TM) for
Windows. It provides remote presentation support for IMS. Multi Soft and IBM
also have entered into International Marketing Agreements to market Multi Soft's
WCL Toolkit under the name IMS Client Server Toolkit(TM) for Windows in the
United States, Puerto Rico, the Asian Pacific Region, Europe, the Middle East
and Africa and Canada.
In addition, in September 1994, Multi Soft entered into an International
Software Licensing Agreement with IBM's Personal Communications 3270 division
("P-Comm"). This agreement allows IBM to logo and market a P-Comm specific
version of both the Toolkit and Runtime of Multi Soft's WCL(TM). Pursuant to
this agreement, the Company will receive a minimum of $75,000 per quarter over a
two year period representing minimum advances against royalties.
It is Multi Soft's intent to remain a technology provider and search out
multiple distribution channels, rather than to try and grow via an expensive
direct sales force. This allows the focus to stay on technology, with a low
overhead cost for each distribution channel used. However, if the Company
obtains additional funds from operations or otherwise, it plans to expand
in-house marketing activities by advertising in trade publications and by
conducting targeted mailing.
Dividend Policy
The Company has not declared or paid any dividends on its common stock
since its inception and does not anticipate the declaration or payment of cash
dividends in the foreseeable future. The Company intends to retain earnings, if
any, to finance the development and expansion of its business. Future dividend
policy will be subject to the discretion of the Board of Directors and will be
contingent upon future earnings, if any, the Company's financial condition,
capital requirements, general business conditions and other factors. Therefore,
there can be no assurance that dividends of any kind will ever be paid.
Effect of Inflation
Management believes that inflation has not had a material effect on its
operations for the periods presented.
