Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 1 - Description of Business
Cognigen Networks, Inc (the Company) is engaged in the business of
providing telecommunications products and services to worldwide markets.
The Company's activities include selling prepaid calling cards, providing
call switching services, and Internet marketing of telecommunications
products and services, pagers and computers.
Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal
recurring adjustments, have been made to (a) the results of consolidated
operations for the three month periods ended September 30, 2000 and 1999,
respectively, (b) the consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 2000 and
(c) the consolidated statements of cash flows for the three month periods
ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively, in order to make the
financial statements not misleading.
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all the
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
principles for financial statements. For further information, refer to
the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the
year ended June 30, 2000, included in the Company's Annual Report on Form
10-KSB and Form 10-KSB/A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The results for the three month period ended September 30, 2000 may not
necessarily be indicative of the results for the fiscal year ended June
30, 2001.
Note 3 - Basis of Presentation
All per share amounts reflect the 37,298,444 shares the Company has a
legal obligation to issue in the future in connection with the reverse
acquisition of ITHC, and have been treated as outstanding from the date of
acquisition.
Note 4 - Stock Options
In August 1999, the Company issued 32,400,000 options entitling the
holders to purchase the Company's common stock at $0.46 per share. The
options vest immediately and expire five years from the date issued. The
options cannot be exercised until the Company amends it articles of
incorporation or effects a reverse split of its common stock so that it
has sufficient shares available for issuance upon the exercise of these
options. 25,200,000 of these options were issued to non-employees while
the remaining options were issued to employees and directors. The Company
has adopted the disclosure-only provisions of Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation."
Accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized for the stock
options issued to employees and directors. $6,022,044 of compensation
expense was recorded in connection with the options granted to non
employees based on a value of $.23 per option.
Note 5 - Customer Databases
The Company maintains two customer databases which were originally
compiled in October 1998. These customer databases were acquired in
connection with the initial capitalization of Inter-American
Telecommunications Holding Corporation (ITHC), which acquired from
Telkiosk, Inc. and Combined Telecommunications Consultancy, LTD (CTC)
customer databases valued at $500,000 and $800,000, respectively, through
the issuance of $500,000 and $800,000 in notes payable, and by issuing 500
(2,844,285 as adjusted) and 1,000 (5,688,570 as adjusted) shares of common
stock, respectively. ITHC also issued 500 (2,844,285 as adjusted) shares
of common stock to Inter-American Telecommunications Corporation (ITC) as
part of its initial capitalization for backroom support to be provided to
ITHC in the future. The customer databases were originally recorded at
their predecessor cost of $1,300,000, with the shares of common stock
issued being recorded at their nominal par value ($.001) of $20. The
Company intends to migrate these names into active long distance customers
of Cognigen Switching Technologies, Inc. (CST), the Company's wholly owned
subsidiary. The Company's plans for the solicitation process are
currently underway and the Company plans to be completed by October 2001.
In October 2000, the Company also entered into an option agreement with an
entity formed by the entities which originally sold the Company's customer
databases to the Company's predecessor. The agreement provides that if
the Company has not been able to establish at least 5,000 active
telecommunications subscribers from the combined lists by March 30, 2001,
the Company has the option to require the entity to repurchase the
customer lists from the Company to enable the Company to recover its
investment in these databases.
Note 6 - Amortization of Customer Databases
The Company changed its method of amortizing customer databases during
fiscal 2000. Previously the Company did not begin to amortize its
customer databases until the migration of these names into active
customers had begun. However, effective July 1, 1999 as a result of the
significant uncertainties surrounding the commencement of the migration
process, the Company has reflected amortization of these databases over
their estimated remaining useful lives of 4.33 years (through November 1,
2003). The effects of this correction on previously reported quarterly
amounts was $75,000 of additional amortization expense as follows:

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
Forward-Looking Statements
Certain of the information discussed herein, and in particular in this
section entitled "Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of
Operation," contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and
uncertainties that might adversely affect the operating results of the
Company in the future in a material way. Such risks and uncertainties
include, without limitation, the Company's possible inability to obtain
additional financing, lack of agent growth, loss of key personnel, rate
changes, fee policy or application changes, technological changes and
increased competition. Many of these risks are beyond the control of the
Company. The Company is not entitled to rely on the safe harbor
provisions of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or
Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, when
making forward-looking statements.
Overview
The Company is engaged in the business of providing telecommunications
products and services to worldwide markets. The Company's activities
include selling prepaid calling cards, providing call switching services,
and Internet marketing of telecommunications products and services, pagers
and computers.
The Company was incorporated on May 6, 1983, in Colorado. On August 20,
1999, the Company completed the acquisition of all of the net assets of
Inter-American Telecommunications Holding Corporation (ITHC) in exchange
for up to 49,041,397 shares of the Company's common stock. For financial
statement purposes, this business combination was accounted for as an
additional capitalization of ITHC (a reverse acquisition in which ITHC was
the accounting acquirer). For accounting purposes, ITHC is considered the
surviving entity and the historical financial statements prior to the
acquisition are those of ITHC.
Three Months Ended September 30, 2000 Compared to Three Months Ended
September 30, 1999
Total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2000 was $1,176,710
compared to $884,844 for the three months ended September 30, 1999. Total
revenue for the 2000 period consisted of $181,212 related to prepaid cards
and pins and $871,647 related to commissions. Total revenue for the
comparable period in 1999 consisted of $445,090 related to prepaid cards
and pins and $445,133 related to commissions. The $263,878, or 59%,
decrease in prepaid cards and pins is due to reduced tariff calls as a
result of competition. The $426,514, or 96%, increase in commissions is
due to an increase in agents of approximately $36,900 new agents. Call
back and switching revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2000
was $118,792 for which there was no comparable revenue for 1999.
Operating costs related to prepaid cards and pins for the three months
ended September 30, 2000 decreased $171,807, or 57%, to $130,830 from
$302,637 during the three months ended September 30, 1999. Operating
costs related to commissions for the three months ended September 30, 2000
increased $112,174, or 33%, to $457,217 from $345,043 during the three
months ended September 30, 1999. The cost increases are directly related
to the increases in sales revenue. The call back and switching services
costs were $129,569 for the three months ended September 30, 2000 for
which there were no comparable costs for 1999.
General and administrative operating expenses decreased $5,520,617, or
84%, to $1,026,672 during the three months ended September 30, 2000 from
$6,547,289 during the three months ended September 30, 1999. This
decrease is due to $5,836,724 of stock based compensation for the three
months ended September 30, 1999 that was not repeated in the three months
ended September 30, 2000 and is offset by increased salaries of $123,130
as a result of more headcount and depreciation and amortization of
$291,385.
The Company incurred a loss from operations of $567,578 for the three
months ended September 30, 2000 compared to $6,310,125 for the three
months ended September 30, 1999. The decrease in operating loss during
the current period is directly related to the expense of stock options
granted for services to non-employees of $5,836,724 recognized during the
three months ended September 30, 1999.
Interest expense decreased $15,900, or 45%, to $19,650 for the three
months ended September 30, 2000 from $35,550 for the three months ended
September 30, 1999. The reduction is a result of the payoff of a portion
of debt. After interest expense, the net loss for the three months ended
September 30, 2000 was $587,228, or $.01 loss per share, compared to a net
loss of $6,345,675, or $.26 loss per share, for the three months ended
September 30, 1999.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company has funded its operations to date primarily from shareholder
advances and stock subscriptions received. At September 30, 2000, the
Company had cash and cash equivalents of $275,630 and negative working
capital of $179,810.
Cash used by the Company for operating activities during the three months
ended September 30, 2000 was $408,787. A primary component of the use of
cash during the three months was the Company's net loss of $587,228
adjusted for non-cash adjustments for depreciation and amortization of
$291,385. Additional uses of operating cash for the three months included
increases in the Company's accounts receivable of $154,346, commissions
receivable of $138,632, other assets of $57,718, and deposits of $12,315.
The uses in operating cash were partially offset by cash provided of
$101,003 from accounts payable, $143,708 of commissions payable, and
$16,933 of interest payable. Cash used for investing activities includes
$3,652 for the purchase of fixed assets. Additional uses of cash during
the three months ended September 30, 2000 include payments on capital
leases of $29,275.
The Company currently has three notes payable and various capital leases
with total outstanding balances of $914,428 at September 30, 2000. Two of
the notes are due July 1, 2001 and one is due February 12, 2001. The
Company has maturities of capital leases and notes payable of $902,276
required during the next twelve months
Cash generated from operations was not sufficient to meet the Company's
working capital requirements for the quarter ended September 30, 2000, and
may not be sufficient to meet the Company's working capital requirements
for the foreseeable future. As a result, the Company is exploring various
bridge financing and/or additional equity financing to meet current
operating requirements until operations can generate sufficient cash for
the Company to become self-sustaining. There can be no assurances that the
Company will be able to secure additional debt or equity financing or that
operations will produce adequate cash flows to allow the Company to meet
all of the Company's future obligations. However, management believes the
Company will be successful in producing sufficient cash flows from all
collective sources to continue for the next twelve months.
The Company has no significant planned capital expenditures covering the
next twelve months.
The Company maintains two customer databases, originally compiled in
October 1998 containing archived names with historical records of long
distance telecommunication service users, to which the Company intends to
devote substantial efforts during the next twelve months to transform
these names into active CST customer accounts. The Company has been in
negotiations with a telemarketing firm to assist in the transformation of
these names into active accounts. The Company anticipates an initial cost
of approximately $93,000 for these telemarketing services and has received
a verbal commitment from a third party to assist in funding these
telemarketing costs, as necessary.
The Company has also entered into an option agreement with a joint venture
consisting of the sellers of the customer databases to the Company's
predecessor. The agreement provides that if certain targeted levels of
active customers cannot be transformed from the databases by March 30,
2001, the Company has the option to have the joint venture repurchase the
databases through the forgiveness of the remaining debt outstanding and
the return of Company shares to the Company. The Company believes this
agreement is a major step in protecting the recoverability of the
Company's original investment in these databases.
