Item 1. Financial Statements.
See attached.
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations.
Since inception in 1989, the Registrant has relied principally on the
proceeds from one public and several private offerings of its securities to
fund operations. The Registrant has used the proceeds from these offerings
and the limited revenues it has received from sales of the Registrant's
products to fund research and development activities and to cover its
recurring operating deficits. From inception in March, 1989 to June 30, 1997,
a total of $10,500,779 (net) has been received from these financing
activities. At June 30, 1995, the Registrant had cash and cash equivalents
totaling $57,980 available to cover recurring operating deficits and research
and development expenses.
The Registrant incurs considerable expense in demonstrating and testing
its products. Government approvals for each of the products and adaptations
thereto must be obtained before its products may be marketed. The Registrant
is also incurring substantial expenses in demonstrating its products to
prospective customers, both civilian and governmental. During 1995, the
Registrant's Board of Directors determined that the results of its marketing
efforts in conjunction with its recently developed blend center warranted
concentrating marketing efforts on the distribution of blend centers with
particular concentration on regional and national restaurant chain
franchisees. As a result, it changed its marketing strategy to one whereby it
is currently attempting to establish relationships with owners of regional and
national restaurant chain franchises, while also pursuing relationships with
other potential high volume consumers in both the civilian and governmental
sectors in an effort to broaden its distribution and gain market acceptance.
A significant number of such relationships have been established to date.
Management believes that this approach will result in substantially higher
revenues from product sales and thereby significantly improve the Registrant's
liquidity.
The Registrant's long term viability is dependent upon improving
liquidity through increased product sales. In the interim, Management
believes that the current cash in its account and cash from ongoing operations
should be adequate to meet its research and development, marketing,
administrative expenses and cash commitments through fiscal 1996 or until the
Registrant reaches consistent profitability from ongoing internal operations
if that is later. The Registrant may continue to offer its securities on a
public or private basis as a means of supplementing it liquidity from ongoing
operations.
Other than continuing development expenses related to new products,
estimated to be 3% of the Registrant's net revenues on an annual basis,
commitments under facilities' leases totaling $185,200 through August, 1999,
the Registrant has no other known commitments for its capital resources as of
June 30, 1996. Management believes that cash available from ongoing
operations and, if necessary, from additional financing, will cover these
commitments.
The Registrant's total assets increased from $520,604 at June 30, 1996
and decreased from $1,913,750 at December 31, 1996 to $1,578,387 at June 30,
1997. The increase of $1,057,783 (203.2%) was primarily due to an increase in
notes and bonds purchased with cash from equity offerings. The decrease of
$335,363 (-17.52%) was primarily due to liquidation of notes and bonds.
The Registrant's total liabilities increased from $1,846,430 at June 30,
1996 and $2,171,377 at December 31, 1996 and decreased to $1,894,394.20 at
June 30, 1997. The increase of $47,964 (2.6%) was primarily due to an
increase in notes payable to stockholders. The decrease of $276,983 (-12.8%)
was primarily due to a decrease in notes payable to stockholders. These
respective increases were due primarily to (I) increased accrued expenses net
of decreased accounts payable, and, increased notes payable to securities
holders; and, (ii) increased accrued expenses, accounts payable, and notes
payable.
The Registrant's accrued expenses decreased from $522,594 at June 30,
1996 and $39,289 at December 31, 1996 to $7,111 at June 30, 1997, total
decreases of $515,483 (-98.6%) and $32,178 (-81.9%), respectively. These
respective increases were due primarily to (I) the accrual of certain services
provided to the Registrant during the period which were converted to common
stock or common stock subscribed as of December 31, 1997; and, (ii) the
accrual of services that were converted to stock as noted above.
The Registrant's notes payable increased from $1,157,818 at June 30, 1996
and $1,872,185 at December 31, 1996 and decreased to $1,249,359 at June 30,
1997, total increase of $91,541 (7.91%) and decrease of $622,826 (-33.27%),
respectively. The increase was attributable to net amounts of convertible
promissory notes issued versus the conversion of outstanding promissory notes
to common stock or common stock subscribed. The decrease was primarily due
to the conversion of the convertible notes to shares of common stock.
The Registrant's accounts payable increased from $34,480 at June 30, 1996
and increased from $74,869 at December 31, 1996 to $277,849 at June 30, 1997,
a total
decrease and increase, respectively, of $243,369 (705.8%) and $202,980
(271.11%). The increase was primarily due to the accrual of operating
expenses for the current period, increased inventory purchases and the accrual
of payment of several convertible promissory notes.
The Registrant's accumulated deficit increased from $7,966,225 at June
30, 1996 and $8,506,454 at December 31, 1996 to $9,563,445 at June 30, 1997,
(20.1%) and (12.4%), respectively, as a result of increased net losses from
operations.
Since inception, the Registrant has experienced significant losses from
operations in each successive period. For the six months ended June 30, 1997,
as compared to the six months ended June 30, 1996, net loss from operations
increased $180,137 (31.1%) to $759,916 from $579,779; gross sales of products
increased $647,026 (935.6%) to $716,186 from $69,160; cost of product sales
increased $272,913 (573%) to $320,539 from $47,626; selling, general and
administrative expenses increased $518,914 (93.2%) to $1,075,750 from
$556,836; and, interest expense increased $43,400 (97.6%) to $87,877 from
$44,477. The Registrant achieved a gross profit percentage of approximately
55.2% for the six month period ended June 30, 1997 as compared to 31.1% for
the six month period ended June 30, 1996 and 23.5% for the year ended December
31, 1996.
Management expects to be able to maintain or improve gross profit margins
into the future. Currently, the Registrant sells most of its products by the
gallon in various sized containers and prices its products based on container
size. The Registrant has experienced no price pressure and structures its
prices to be competitive with other products sold in similar markets.
Since inception, the Registrant has primarily used equity financing
transactions and borrowings convertible to equity securities to improve its
liquidity while operations have been unable, until at least early 1996, to
generate adequate working capital. Net cash used in operating activities for
the six months ended June 30,
1997 was 1,933,169.
As a result of what Management perceives to be an ever-increasing
societal emphasis on the utilization of environmentally responsible products
in a responsible and efficient manner, Management believes that the
Registrant's products, which are principally aqueous based, non-toxic and
biodegradable, have significant future market potential, especially when
considered in conjunction with the Registrant's blend center method of product
distribution, although the extent of that potential can not be determined at
this time.
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
During the period covered by this Report, the three months ended March
31, 1997, the Registrant was involved in the following legal proceedings.
In March, 1997, the Registrant filed a legal action against George A.
Money, a former officer and director, seeking to cancel the 659,931 shares of
Registrant's common stock currently held by Mr. Money. The Registrant
contends in its complaint that Mr. Money did not give the promised
consideration underlying the issuance of such shares. That consideration was
to consist of certain real property, fixtures and equipment located in Iowa as
well as certain chemical formulae. As of the date this Report was filed, Mr.
Money had not filed an answer to the Registrant's complaint and a default
judgment has been entered against Mr. Money.
Item 2. Changes in Securities.
None.
Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities.
None.
Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
None.
Item 5. Other Information.
The Registrant was formed on March 21, 1989, to evaluate, structure and
complete a merger with, or acquisition of, other entities. The Registrant
initially conducted organizational matters followed by the sale of 32,000,000
shares of common stock, to insiders, for a total of $3,200; and, the sale of
37,275,000 Units in a public offering, completed August 6, 1990, which raised
$372,750 in gross proceeds. Each Unit consisted of one share of the
Registrant's no par value common stock, one (1) Class A common stock purchase
warrant and one (1) Class B common stock purchase warrant. Originally, each A
Warrant entitled the holder to purchase, at a price of $.04, one share of the
Registrant's common stock during the two year period commencing February 6,
1990; and, each B Warrant entitled the holder to purchase one share of the
Registrant's common stock, at a price of $.07 per share, during the three year
period commencing February 6, 1990. The Class A and Class B Warrants have
been extended to February 6, 1998 and 1999, respectively; and, due to a one
for one hundred (1:100) reverse split of the Registrant's outstanding
securities effected March 25, 1994, the exercise prices of the Class A and
Class B Warrants have been adjusted to $4.00 and $7.00, respectively. The
Registrant has the right to redeem the A and B Warrants upon 30 days written
notice at a price of $.01 per Warrant.
On August 24, 1990, the Registrant entered into an agreement to acquire
an approximately ninety-five percent (94.9%) ownership interest in Ultra
Shield Products International, Inc., a California corporation, of Rancho
Cucamonga, California ("USPIC"). The acquisition was effected through an
exchange of 132,397,000 (65.2%) of the Registrant's authorized, but unissued,
shares of common stock for 47,453,256 (94.9)% shares of the common stock of
USPIC, which shares were then owned by the individuals serving as the officers
and directors of USPIC at that time. In accordance with the Registrant's
acquisition of USPIC, the Registrant subsequently changed its name to Ultra
Shield Products International, Inc., a Delaware corporation.
Following the exchange of shares described above, it was the Registrant's
intent that it prepare a Form S-4 Registration Statement under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, for the purpose of attempting to complete the
Registrant's acquisition of all of the outstanding shares (100%) of USPIC in
exchange for an overall total of approximately 81% percent of the Registrant's
equity securities.
