Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation.
Plan of Operation.
Over the next 12 months, the Company plans to enter the identity
verification market through manufacturing and directly distributing the
Company's high quality fingerprint capture product to established vendors
selling fingerprint capture to major government agencies and other large-scale
identification programs. In support of this strategic plan, the Company has
developed ongoing relationships by demonstrating in person and providing
product to test, with leading industry experts, integrators, end users and
consultants. Over the past 24 months, the Company has expended approximately
$500,000 on research and development.
The Company has established new corporate offices and is in the process
of establishing production capabilities in a 5,000 square foot facility it has
leased in Livermore, California. The Company has an option on an additional
5,000 square feet for expansion that will run coterminius with its existing
3-year lease. The Company believes that its location, access to trained
scientific and manufacturing personnel, and proximity to affordable housing
will assist in achieving the Company's business plan.
The Company has and will continue to invest significant capital
expenditures in equipment, internal systems, and personnel to meet these
anticipated demands. The Company is setting up clean room facilities with
extensive optical equipment including lasers, optical tables, and film
processing workstations for the manufacture of the HOE's. The Company is
installing computer networks, desks, phone systems, and workstations for the
internal operations. The Company is setting up manufacturing cells with
fixtures, tools and related equipment and ordering parts for an initial 2000
unit build. The Company is hiring a Chief Financial Officer, Office Manager,
Production Manager, Holographers, Quality Control Specialists and Assemblers
to build the team to assist in achieving the Company's business plan.
Major Markets of Interest
-------------------------
The Company is currently seeking or intends to seek sales contracts to
the following general categories of potential customers and applications: (1)
Law Enforcement Agencies, including the FBI, state, county and municipal
jurisdictions; (2) Civil Markets, including United States Immigration,
passport, military, state driver
<PAGE> 8
licenses, welfare fraud deterrence and benefit entitlement; (3) Commercial
Markets, including access control of physical sites, access control of
computers and databases, and security in support of card based financial
systems; and (4) International Markets, including countries with national ID
programs, border control, voter registration, social benefits, and national
health.
Market Entry Strategy
----------------------
Over the next 12 months, the Company's plan includes establishing
strategic partnerships with established vendors including Value Added
Resellers/Distributors (VARs), Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs), and
System Integrators (SIs). Relationships with VARs would include nonexclusive
arrangements for target markets of interest wherein selected channel partners
have established relationships with large potential segments or higher margin
"niche" markets. Relationships with OEMs would involve ATMs, point of sale,
time clocks, transit turnstiles, access control, and healthcare information
system vendors. SIs would include large scale system providers such as IBM,
EDS, NEC, Unisys and similar companies.
The Company developed its APrinT HoloPass" fingerprint capture devices,
which utilize high image quality by design and multi-channel distribution
system based upon the marketing experience and insights gained from over five
years of industry participation and internal market research. The Company's
products have been engineered to provide high quality, consistent images, and
to achieve compliance with the strictest government and industry standards at
relatively low cost. Government standards include "FBI IQS EFTS" and
"ANSI/NIST".
By licensing and/or marketing under non-exclusive strategic agreements
with major corporations that are serving diverse target market segments, the
Company expects to reduce the higher business risks associated with
over-dependence on a single industry, or a single large customer, or a
specific geographic region. In addition, the Company plans to work with
established security vendors in the access control/physical security
application markets in an effort to better access major corporations,
colleges, airports, hospitals, laboratories, government facilities, and
computer networks.
These strategic relationships will not only provide the Company with
distribution outlets and generate demand for the Company's product, but will
also allow the Company to integrate software, hardware, and services provided
by the Company into its offerings to others, possible creating additional
opportunities for revenues and profits.
The Company is continuing to ship no charge test units to major
fingerprint software algorithm vendors, integrators, and vendors with existing
government contracts. The Company is doing extensive travel to meet with
major federal agencies, participate in major trade events and standards
committees, and discuss potential distribution arrangements for the soon to be
built units. The Company is seeking purchase orders for delivery starting in
the first quarter of 2001.
<PAGE> 9
The Company believes this strategy will complement the Company's product
marketing efforts with end users and system integrators for large scale
fingerprint capture/verification applications such as law enforcement,
military ID, driver licenses, passports, voter registration programs, computer
security/commerce and proposed electronic benefits transfer programs by state
and federal agencies.
The Company has integrated its proprietary fingerprint capture devices
with complementary software for enrollment and verification. Separately, it
also developed proprietary technology for transfer of captured fingerprints
into "smart" cards, for subsequent verification of the user's fingerprint at
the time the "smart" card is used. By meeting high government standards and by
initially focusing on market segments that are currently purchasing
fingerprint identity verification products, the Company expects to
conclusively establish its technology as one of the standards for the
industry.
The Company's primary focus is existing government, industrial, and
commercial market segments requiring rapid, high-quality fingerprint
enrollment and identity verification in one-to-one and one-to-many
applications. One-to-one applications include security access systems that
use an individual's unique fingerprint pattern to enter restricted access
locations, to access a specific computer or data, or "smart cards".
One-to-many applications include fingerprint identity verification database
comparisons for corporate employees, military personnel, suspected criminals,
prospective handgun purchasers, recipients of government welfare or
entitlement benefits, state licensed drivers, and foreign countries'
fingerprint identification programs.
The Company's marketing strategy consists of market penetration through
price performance leadership. The Company anticipates that it will be selling
direct or through current market suppliers, system integrators, value-added
resellers, and international agents. The Company intends to support its
marketing strategy with quality collateral material, targeted advertising, and
publicity campaigns.
The Company is establishing its corporate office and production
facility to meet the anticipated demands of these marketing efforts. The
Company is investing over $150,000 in capital equipment and facilities to
enable this effort. The Company intends to significantly increase the number
of its employees by adding quality personnel in the areas of operations,
assembly, testing, engineering, and administration.
The Company plans to do additional research and development into
improving and reducing the cost of all key components in the HoloPass device.
Additional projects are planned to add digital output, internal logic, and
wireless operations to the HoloPass product.
The Company anticipates that its current funding will last for 12
months, and hopes to be operating profitably by the end of such 12 month
period. The Company has placed funds into relative term certificates of
deposit and secured lines of credit.
