B. System of Accounts
The accompanying financial statements include the accounts
of Enterprises. The financial statements report
Enterprises' subsidiary, Entergy Systems and Service, Inc.
(Entergy Systems) under the equity method of accounting for
investments in common stock. The accounts of Enterprises
are maintained in accordance with the system of accounts
prescribed by the SEC.
C. Cash and Cash Equivalents
For the purpose of Statement of Cash Flows, Enterprises
considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with an
original maturity of three months or less to be cash
equivalents.
D. Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation is computed on the declining balance method for
Enterprises over the estimated useful lives of the furniture
and equipment. Leasehold costs and improvements are
amortized over their estimated useful lives (five years).
E. Goodwill
Intangible assets consist primarily of goodwill that
represents the excess of cost over the fair value of net
assets acquired, and the balance is being amortized over
five years using the straight-line method.
F. Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management
to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the
financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues
and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results
could differ from those estimates.
G. Income Taxes
The company accounts for income taxes pursuant to Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 "Accounting For
Income Taxes" (FAS 109). This standard requires that
deferred income taxes be recorded for all temporary
differences between the financial statement and tax basis of
assets and liabilities and loss carryforwards, and that
deferred tax balances be based on enacted tax laws at tax
rates that are expected to be in effect when the temporary
differences reverse.
The Company joins its parent and the other Entergy
subsidiaries in filing a consolidated Federal income tax
return. Income taxes (or benefits) are allocated to the
Company in proportion to its contribution to consolidated
taxable income.
2. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
Entergy Services provides technical and consulting services
and other assistance to Enterprises at cost (except as
indicated in Note 1) which amounted to $16,348,000,
$4,367,000 and $2,875,000 for the years 1997, 1996 and 1995,
respectively.
3. INCOME TAXES
The tax sharing agreement with Entergy provides that the
Company will receive tax benefit for its taxable loss.
Accordingly, a long-term receivable has been recorded at
December 31, 1997 to reflect the tax benefit of the
Company's cumulative loss in jurisdictions in which the
Company files combined or consolidated returns. (Federal,
Arkansas, and Mississippi for 1997)
Deferred income taxes are provided in recognition of
temporary differences between the financial reporting and
income tax basis of assets and liabilities and loss
carryforwards. Deferred income tax assets (liabilities) are
comprised of the following at December 31, 1997 and 1996.
1997 1996
Deferred Tax Assets/(Liabilities):
Equipment and fixed assets 2,334,895 273,578
Deferred charges and other 541,620 3,203,615
Unrealized loss on marketable securities 2,142,726 2,142,726
Other intangible assets 1,198,646 1,665,592
Business Development Assignment 435,150 1,789,365
State net operating loss carryforwards 325,753 325,753
----------- -----------
Gross deferred tax asset/(liability) 6,978,790 9,400,629
State Deferred tax valuation allowance (325,753) (325,753)
----------- -----------
Net Deferred Tax Assets/(Liabilities) $ 6,653,037 $ 9,074,876
=========== ===========
The ultimate realization of these deferred tax assets is
dependent upon future taxable income sufficient to offset
the related deductions and loss carryforwards within the
applicable carryforward period. The valuation allowance is
based upon management's conclusions that sufficient positive
evidence, as defined as FAS 109, regarding the realization
of certain tax carryforward items does not exist and
generally relate to state loss carryforwards in states in
which Entergy or its subsidiaries do not file a combined or
consolidated return.
The provision for intercompany (benefit) expense in lieu of
federal income taxes for the year ended December 31, 1997
and 1996 consisted of the following:
1997 1996
(In dollars)
Current:
Federal $(6,485,166) $ 265,910
State (1,085,819) 98,270
----------- ----------
Total Current Income Tax Expense (Benefit) (7,570,985) 364,180
----------- ----------
Deferred:
Federal 1,595,566 (1,443,681)
State 826,273 110,630
Valuation Allowance - -
----------- ----------
Total Deferred Income Tax Expense 2,421,839 (1,333,051)
----------- ----------
Recorded income tax expense $(5,149,146) $ (968,871)
=========== ==========
The Company's total income taxes differ from the amounts
computed by applying the statutory Federal income tax rate
to income before taxes. The primary reason for the
difference is the effect of state income taxes.
At December 31, 1997, the Company had net operating loss
carryforwards available for state income tax reporting
purposes of approximately $3.3 million. These net operating
loss carryforwards expire during various periods through
2011 depending on the taxing jurisdiction.
4. INVESTMENT IN FIRST PACIFIC NETWORKS, INC. (FPN)
During 1995, the Company experienced a continuing decline in
market value per share of its investment in the common stock
of FPN, and management determined that the decline in market
value of the FPN investment was other than temporary.
Accordingly, in 1995 the Company recognized such decline in
the market value of its FPN investment in its results of
operations as an other than temporary decline. In December
1996, the Company wrote-off the book value of its investment
in FPN.
In March 1994, Enterprises consummated with FPN an amendment
to a Product License Agreement (the "License Agreement")
entered into in July 1991 in connection with utility
applications, being jointly developed by Enterprises and
FPN, for FPN's patented communications technology. The
original License Agreement primarily provided Enterprises an
exclusive irrevocable license to make, use and sell the
"Core Technology" in the "New Products" and sub-license to
"Qualifying Utilities" the right to manufacture and provide
the New Products to end users. The amendment removed
Enterprises' right to manufacture or have manufactured the
New Products. As consideration for the amendment of its
rights, Enterprises received $2 million upon the execution
of the amendment, which was recorded as a reduction of its
investment in the original license agreement amount, and a
$7 million unsecured, non-interest bearing obligation
payable on demand after March 15, 1998. Given FPN's limited
success to date in commercializing its patented
communications technology, Enterprises is uncertain as to
FPN's ability to meet its $7 million obligation.
Consequently, Enterprises has fully reserved this
receivable.
As a result of reliability problems encountered in
connection with the testing of the New Products on May 24,
1995, Enterprises and FPN entered into a new amendment to
the Product (the "Second Amended Agreement"), which, among
other things, (i) terminated the parties' joint effort to
complete the development of the New Products, (ii) retained
and expanded Enterprises' exclusive license to make, use and
market the New Products within the territorial limits of the
Entergy System; and (iii) modified Enterprises' right to
share in revenues derived from the marketing of the new
Products outside the Entergy System. Although the Second
Amended Agreement contemplates that FPN may proceed
independently with the development of the New Products,
given the above referenced problems and the resulting
uncertainty concerning the long-term commercial success of
the New Products, the Company has recognized a $1.6 million
loss on the write-down of the remaining unamortized balance
of the product license fee at December 31, 1995.
5. INVESTMENT IN SYSTEMS AND SERVICE INTERNATIONAL, INC.
In 1992, Enterprises formed a new subsidiary, Entergy
Integrated Solutions, Inc. (EISI), formerly Entergy Systems
and Service, Inc., to enter into the business of providing
energy management services with an initial focus on
efficient lighting technologies. On December 29, 1992,
Entergy Systems acquired a 9.95% equity interest in Systems
and Service International, Inc. (SASI), a manufacturer of
efficient lighting products. Entergy Systems also made a
loan to SASI, acquired the business and assets of SASI's
distribution subsidiary, and entered into an agreement to
distribute SASI's products.
In April, 1995, Entergy Systems consummated a series of
transactions with SASI which, among other things; amended
the existing Distribution Agreement to provide for lower
prices and eliminated minimum order quantities; provided for
Entergy System's purchase of certain additional SASI
developed technology; provided for a Confidentiality and Non-
Competition Agreement with SASI; and provided for the
redemption of Entergy System's common stock investment in
SASI.
In January 1997, EIS exercised its option to buy certain
Patents ($250,000) and other technology assets ($850,000)
from SASI which have ceased business operations.
6. COMMON STOCK
At December 31, 1997, Enterprises is authorized, by its
Charter, to issue 100,000 shares of its common stock.
During 1997, Enterprises issued 3,000 shares of common stock
for $3 million primarily to fund Entergy Nuclear Inc., a
subsidiary of Entergy Enterprises, Inc.
It is anticipated that Enterprises' cash flow generated by
ongoing operations may not be sufficient to fund all of
Enterprises' obligations. On June 30, 1995, the SEC
authorized Entergy to invest up to $350 million through
December 31, 1997 in Enterprises. In addition to common
stock, such investments may take the form of capital
contributions, loans, and/or guarantees of the indebtedness
or other obligations of Enterprises or certain of its
affiliated companies.
7. COMMITMENTS & CONTINGENCIES
In June 1993, Catalyst Technologies, Inc. (CTI) filed a
petition in the Civil District Court for the Parish of
Orleans, Louisiana (CDC) , against Electec, Inc., now named
Entergy Enterprises, Inc. (EEI), which is a wholly-owned non-
utility subsidiary of Entergy Corporation. The petition
alleged, among other things, breach of contract, and breach
of the obligation of good-faith and fair dealing. On August
8, 1997, a jury in the CDC returned a verdict against EEI in
the amount of $346 million plus interest of approximately
$118 million. On November 15, 1997 the trial judge entered
a judgment notwithstanding the verdict in the CTI lawsuit.
Finding as a matter of law that the jury's verdict was
incorrect, the judge ruled that no contract ever existed
between CTI and Entergy Enterprises, and that the verdict
was contrary to the law and the evidence. CTI has appealed
this ruling to the Louisiana Court of Appeal for the Fourth
Circuit. No date for the filing of appellate briefs or oral
argument has been set. On September 30, 1997, CTI filed
another lawsuit against Entergy Corporation, Entergy
Services, Entergy Enterprises and certain individuals who
are, or at one time were, directors of those corporations.
The suite claims, among other things, that CTI suffered
damages as a result of actions on the part of Entergy that
allegedly caused the individual defendants to breach their
fiduciary duties owed to Entergy Enterprises and,
indirectly, to CTI as Entergy Enterprises' judgment
creditor. After the decision of the trial judge in the
original CTI suite, CTI voluntarily moved to dismiss this
proceeding, and it was dismissed without prejudice on
January 16, 1998.
Panda Energy Corporation (Panda) has commenced litigation in
the Dallas District Court naming Entergy, Entergy
Enterprises, Entergy Power Incorporated, Entergy Power Asia
LTD, and the Company as defendants. The allegations against
the defendants include, among others, tortuous interference
with contractual relations, conspiracy, misappropriation of
corporate opportunity, unfair competition and fraud, and
constructive trust issues. Panda seeks damages of
approximately $4.8 billion, of which $3.6 billion is claimed
in punitive damages. During 1996, the trial court granted
an order that was, in effect, a summary judgment in favor of
the defendants. However, Panda Energy Corporation has
appealed and all parties have filed their briefs and are
awaiting the appellate court's decision. The Company and
Entergy continue to believe that this lawsuit is without
merit, that the damages claimed are not supportable, and
that some or all of the claims against Entergy will be
dismissed.
