Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
Background
During the quarter ended December 31, 1995, the Company emerged from
bankruptcy proceedings which commenced in November 1994. During and subsequent
to the bankruptcy proceedings, the principal source of the Company's revenues
has been from sales of its sunscreen products to licensees who act as
distributors and from royalties which are earned as the result of the subsequent
sale of these products by such distributors.
While in bankruptcy, the Company was able to successfully reorganize
its operations and finances. It achieved significant reductions in overhead and
other costs of operations, while recognizing an increase in revenues and a
redirection of its marketing efforts to focus upon its licensing arrangements.
The Company's Plan of Reorganization, which was approved and became
effective on December 20, 1995 (the "Plan"), resulted in, among other things, a
substantial reduction in the Company's outstanding liabilities, an infusion of
capital by the Company's Chief Executive Officer through the purchase of newly
issued shares of the Company's Common Stock and the Company's emergence from the
bankruptcy proceedings. On July 25, 1996, the U.S. Bankruptcy Court issued a
final decree stating the Court no longer has jurisdiction over matters in
connection with the bankruptcy.
In July 1997, the Company completed a private placement of 2,000,000
newly-designated and issued shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock to
Fountain Holdings, LLC, a Wyoming limited liability company, controlled by
Joseph S. Schuchert, Jr. As a result of the Private Placement, the Company
obtained additional working capital of $2.5 million, which it intends to utilize
to enhance the expansion of the Company's sales and marketing program, as well
as to further the Company's research and development efforts.
In order to facilitate the conversion of the Company's Preferred Stock
and to enhance the market price and liquidity of the Company's Common Stock, the
Company completed a one for twenty reverse stock split, specifically, a
conversion of every twenty issued and outstanding shares into one share of the
same class of Common Stock (the "Reverse Stock Split"), which became effective
on December 11, 1997.
Results of Operations
During the quarter ended March 31, 1998, the Company realized a net
loss of $343,952 on revenues of $290,671, compared to net loss of $121,219 on
revenues of $212,438 for the quarter ended March 31, 1997. The increase in
losses from the prior year's quarter ended March 31, 1997, is attributable
primarily to expenses relating to increased sales and marketing efforts. Due to
the increased sales and marketing efforts, revenues for the quarter ended March
31, 1998, increased by 36.8% from the quarter ended March 31, 1997.
During the quarter, the Company incurred operating expenses of
$500,407, a 131.8% increase over operating expenses of $215,860 in the quarter
ended March 31, 1997. This increase
9
<PAGE>
in expenses was primarily due to increased sales and marketing efforts relating
to existing and new markets, research and development relating to new projects
and formulations, and additional personnel.
During the six months ended March 31, 1998, the Company incurred a net
loss of $620,334 on revenues of $328,533, compared to a net loss of $275,484 on
revenues of $322,358 for the comparable period ended March 31, 1997. Sales in
the first six months ended March 31, 1998, were negatively affected by delays in
purchases from European affiliates. Such delays are expected to be offset by
sales in the third and fourth quarters of fiscal 1998. Delayed European
purchases and substantial investment in marketing expenses in support of new
business launches which commenced in April 1998, in addition to increased
research and development expenses, largely on in vitro and in vivo testing of
compounds employing the Company's encapsulation system, resulted in an increase
in losses in comparison to the six months ended March 31, 1997.
For the near term, the Company will continue to focus upon increasing
sales through new business launches, and expects to increase research and
development expenditures for the balance of Fiscal 1998.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
From inception through the quarter ended June 30, 1994, the Company's
principal sources of working capital were derived from a series of private
financing transactions and an initial public offering in 1990. As a result of
the Company's declining equity and assets, the Company's securities were
delisted from The NASDAQ SmallCap Market(sm) during May 1994 and the securities
have since traded on the less liquid market of the OTC Bulletin Board.
During the period from the quarter ended June 30, 1994 throughout the
bankruptcy proceedings, and to the current date, the Company's operations were
funded primarily through sales of products, royalties and proceeds of $2.5
million generated from a private placement offering.
As of March 31, 1998, the Company had working capital of $1,671,060, a
decrease of $651,688 from the level of working capital of $2,322,748 as of
September 30, 1997, and a $1,750,169 increase from the Company's working capital
deficit of $79,109 as of March 31, 1997. The increase in working capital from
March 31, 1997, is primarily attributable to the sale of $2.5 million of
Preferred Stock in July 1997. The decrease in working capital from September 30,
1997, reflects increased sales and marketing efforts relating to existing and
new markets, research and development relating to new projects and formulations,
and additional personnel. During the six months ended March 31, 1998, the
Company's other principal sources of working capital were derived from revenues
and a $100,000 line of credit with First Union National Bank of Florida. As of
March 31, 1998, the Company had no outstanding balance under its line of credit.
During July 1997, the Company completed a private placement of
2,000,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock to Fountain Holdings,
LLC. As a result of such private placement, the Company obtained additional
working capital of $2.5 million, which management believes has enhanced the
expansion of the Company's sales and marketing program, as well as
10
<PAGE>
further the Company's research and development efforts. The Preferred Stock is
convertible at the election of the holder, into shares of the Company's Common
Stock, which currently represents approximately one-third of the Company's
outstanding stock on a post-conversion basis. Prior to conversion, the holders
of the Preferred Stock have the right to elect a majority of the Company's Board
of Directors and to vote as a class on all matters that require a vote of
stockholders.
In order to facilitate the conversion of the Company's Preferred Stock
and to enhance the market price and liquidity of the Company's Common Stock, the
Company completed the reverse stock split, which became effective on December
11, 1997. The Company has 2,380,302 shares of Common Stock (including Class B)
outstanding as of May 12, 1998.
Effects of Inflation
The Company does not expect inflation to materially affect its results
of operations, however, it does expect that its operating costs and the cost of
capital equipment to be acquired in the future may be subject to general
economic and inflationary pressures.
