NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
-------------------
There have been no changes in accounting policies from those stated in the
Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 1997.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS. Cash and cash equivalents include overnight
repurchase agreements and U.S. Treasury money market investments totaling
approximately $9,631,000 and $1,845,000 at September 30, 1998 and December
31, 1997, respectively.
2. COMPREHENSIVE INCOME
--------------------
As of January 1, 1998, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 130, "Reporting of Comprehensive Income" (SFAS
130). SFAS No. 130 establishes new rules for the reporting and display of
comprehensive income and its components. Comprehensive income is defined as
the change in equity (net assets) of an entity during a period from
transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources.
The Company reported total comprehensive income for the quarters ended
September 30, 1998 and 1997 of $(440,581) and $(562,521), respectively.
Adjustments to total comprehensive income for the third quarter of 1998 and
1997 included net gains of $84,400 and $0, respectively. The Company's
total comprehensive income for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 and
1997 was $(3,218,769) and $(1,573,334), respectively. Adjustments to total
comprehensive income for the nine month periods ended September 30, 1998
and 1997 included net gains of $103,541 and $0, respectively. These changes
reflect a market value increase in available-for-sale securities for the
quarters and nine month periods ended September 30, 1998 and 1997.
3. LOSS PER SHARE
--------------
Basic loss per share is determined based on the weighted average number of
common shares assumed to be outstanding during each period. Dilutive loss
per share is the same as basic loss per share as all common share
equivalents are excluded from the calculation as their effect is
anti-dilutive. The weighted average number of common shares assumed to be
outstanding for the three month periods ended September 30, 1998 and 1997
is 11,404,198 and 10,500,720, respectively. The weighted average number of
common shares assumed to be outstanding for the nine month periods ended
September 30, 1998 and 1997 is 11,381,348 and 10,215,099, respectively.

accounted for approximately 30% and 16% of total revenues, respectively.
For the nine month periods ended September 30, 1998 and 1997, Vtel
Corporation accounted for approximately 32% and 38% of total revenues,
respectively.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
- --------------------------
When used in this Form 10-Q and in future filings by the Company with the
Securities and Exchange Commission, the words or phrases "will likely result",
"management expects" or "Company expects", "will continue", "is anticipated",
"estimated" or similar expressions are intended to identify "forward-looking
statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act
of 1995. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such
forward-looking statements, each of which speak only as of the date made. Such
statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause
actual results to differ materially from historical earnings and those presently
anticipated or projected, including the timely development and acceptance of new
products, sources of supply and concentration of customers. The Company has no
obligation to publicly release the results of any revisions which may be made to
any forward-looking statements to reflect anticipated events or circumstances
occurring after the date of such statements.

<PAGE>
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR EACH OF THE THREE AND NINE MONTH PERIODS ENDED
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SEPTEMBER 30, 1998 AND 1997
- ---------------------------
Revenues
- --------
Revenues for the three months ended September 30, 1998 were $3,079,494, as
compared to $2,887,216 for the three months ended September 30, 1997. This
increase of $192,278 is primarily a result of an increase in the average selling
price per camera system. The Company sold 439 camera systems during the three
month period ended September 30, 1998, at an average selling price of
approximately $7,000 per system. This compares to 448 camera system sales for
the three month period ended September 30, 1997, at an average selling price of
approximately $6,400 per system. The increase in the average selling price per
system is due to the mix of products sold, offset somewhat by a promotional
price reduction on certain single-chip camera systems during the third quarter
of 1998.
Revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 were $7,634,269, as
compared to $8,974,645 for the nine months ended September 30, 1997. This
decrease of $1,340,376 is a result of a decrease in the number of camera systems
sold, offset by revenues generated from the Company's first beta site sales of
its studio system and an increase in the average selling price per camera
system. The Company sold 1,048 camera systems during the nine month period ended
September 30, 1998, at an average selling price of approximately $7,000 per
system. This compares to 1,485 camera system sales for the nine month period
ended September 30, 1997, at an average selling price of approximately $6,000
per system. The increase in average selling price is a result of the mix of
products sold and the sales channels utilized. Management believes the decrease
in camera system sales for the nine month period is primarily due to a change in
the focus of the internal sales organization toward its new studio product. The
Company anticipates its current sales efforts will result in increased revenues
from the studio product line in 1999.
Gross Margin
- ------------
For the three month periods ended September 30, 1998 and 1997, gross margins as
a percentage of sales were 45.1% and 44.6%, respectively. This increase is
primarily due to the mix of products sold and increased production efficiencies
when compared to the same period in 1997.
For the nine month periods ended September 30, 1998 and 1997, gross margins as a
percentage of sales were 40.8% and 45.1%, respectively. This decrease is
primarily due to the cost of placing a new product, the studio system, into
production, pricing discounts offered on the initial beta sales of studio, and
an increase in overhead costs, primarily facility rental costs, for the first
half of 1998 when compared to the same period in 1997.
Due to pricing promotions on certain single-chip products during the second half
of 1998, the Company anticipates a potential decline in gross margin as a
percent of camera system sales for the remainder of 1998. This decline may be
offset somewhat by changes in the mix of products sold.
9
<PAGE>
Marketing and Selling Expenses
- ------------------------------
Marketing and selling expenses were $747,400 for the three month period ended
September 30, 1998, as compared to $841,455 for the same period in 1997. This
decrease of $94,055 is primarily due to a reduction in travel and personnel
costs, offset somewhat by increased promotional expenses related to the
Company's studio product.
For the nine month periods ended September 30, 1998 and 1997, marketing and
selling expenses were $3,015,630 and $2,665,108, respectively. The increase of
$350,522 is attributable to increased trade show costs and wireless sales
expenses, offset somewhat by a reduction in travel and personnel costs.
Research and Development Expenses
- ---------------------------------
The Company's research and development expenses were $825,644 and $723,461 for
the three month periods ended September 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively. This
increase of $102,183 is largely a result of increased resources dedicated to the
continued development of the Company's wireless technology.
For the nine month periods ended September 30, 1998 and 1997, research and
development expenses were $2,708,499 and $2,171,534, respectively. This increase
of $536,965 is also attributable to increased resources dedicated to the
wireless technology.
General and Administrative Expenses
- -----------------------------------
For the three month periods ended September 30, 1998 and 1997, general and
administrative expenses were $694,106 and $519,566, respectively. This increase
of $174,540 is primarily a result of increased personnel and increased use of
outside professional services.
For the nine month periods ended September 30, 1998 and 1997, general and
administrative expenses were $1,863,840 and $1,357,012, respectively. This
increase of $506,828 is attributable to increased personnel, increased use of
outside professional services and the amortization of prepaid consulting fees.
Interest Income
- ---------------
Interest income was $354,797 and $233,047 for the three month periods ended
September 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively, and $1,148,498 and $576,087 for the
nine month periods ended September 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively. The increase
in interest income is due to the investment of the proceeds from the Company's
1997 offerings, offset somewhat by the Company's use of proceeds from maturing
investments to fund operations during 1997 and 1998.
Backlog
- -------
As of September 30, 1998, the Company had a backlog of approximately $740,000.
Backlog consists of orders received that generally have a specified delivery
schedule within three to five weeks of receipt.
10
<PAGE>
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------
At September 30, 1998, the Company had working capital of $24,945,595, an
increase of $521,304 from $24,424,291 at December 31, 1997. This increase in
working capital is primarily due to increases in accounts receivable and
inventories. The increase in accounts receivable is primarily due to the higher
sales volume for the third quarter of 1998 when compared to the fourth quarter
of 1997. Increases in inventory reflect preparation for production of the studio
product line.
The Company's principal source of liquidity at September 30, 1998 consisted of
$20,902,014 in cash and short-term investments. Until the Company generates
sufficient revenues from product sales, it will be required to continue to
utilize this source of liquidity to cover the continuing expense of product
development, marketing and general administration. The Company believes its
source of liquidity will provide sufficient resources to meet its cash
requirements for the next twelve months as well as on a longer-term basis.
YEAR 2000 READINESS
- -------------------
The Company is in the process of evaluating the potential impact of the
situation commonly referred to as the "Year 2000" (Y2K) issue. This issue
concerns the inability of information systems to properly recognize and process
date sensitive information relating to the year 2000 and beyond. The inability
to properly interpret dates beyond the year 1999 could lead to business
disruptions.
The Company has formed an internal Y2K team to assess the Company's products,
its internal information systems and processes, and its third party suppliers
for Y2K readiness. The team has identified existing systems which require action
and is in the process of developing and executing plans to make corrections in
affected areas prior to the issue causing any disruption of normal business
activities.
The majority of the Company's products that are installed or available for sale
have either successfully passed Y2K compliance testing or have been deemed Y2K
not-applicable by virtue of the fact that they do not process date information
in any manner. The Company anticipates completion of testing for all of its
products by March 1999. Although the Company's Y2K compliant products have, or
will have, undergone the Company's normal quality testing procedures, there can
be no assurance that these products, or third-party products used with the
Company's products, do not contain undetected errors or defects associated with
Y2K date functions that may materially or adversely affect the Company.
The Company primarily utilizes third party software packages for its internal
information systems and processes. Many of these packages have already been
rendered Y2K compliant by the manufacturers, and as a part of ongoing support
agreements with these manufacturers, the Company is able to upgrade to Y2K
compliant versions at minimal to no additional cost. As a
11
<PAGE>
result, efforts required to modify the Company's business systems have been
minimized. The Company expects its principal internal management information
systems to be fully Y2K compliant by mid-1999. The Company is examining and
taking steps to ensure that its manufacturing processes will not be interrupted
and its facilities infrastructure will not experience any failures or
difficulties as a result of the year 2000 issues.
The Company also faces risks and uncertainties to the extent that third party
suppliers of products, service and systems on which the Company relies do not
have business systems or products that comply with the Y2K requirements. The
Company has initiated communications with all of its significant suppliers and
customers to determine the extent to which the Company's systems and products
are vulnerable to those third parties' failure to remediate their own Y2K
issues. There is no guarantee that the systems or products of other companies on
which the Company relies will be timely converted and would not have an adverse
effect on the Company's systems or products. The Company's Y2K team is in the
process of identifying what actions are needed to mitigate vulnerability to
problems related to enterprises with which the Company interacts.
Based on the status of its assessment to date, the Company does not anticipate
significant costs or lost revenue associated with the Y2K issue that would have
a material adverse effect on the Company's operating results or financial
condition.
