Footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been omitted in
accordance with the published rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange commission. These financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the
Company' Form 10-KSB for the most recent fiscal year.
Certain statements contained herein are not based on historical facts, but are
forward looking statements that are based upon numerous assumptions about
future conditions that could prove not to be accurate. Actual events,
transactions and results may materially differ from the anticipated
event, transactions or results described in such statements. The Company's
ability to consummate such transactions and achieve such events or results is
subject to certain risks and uncertainties. Such risks and uncertainties
include, but are not limited to, the existence of demand for and acceptance of
the Company's products and services, regulatory approvals and developments,
economic conditions, the impact of competition and pricing, results of
financing efforts and other factors affecting the Company's business that are
beyond the Company's control. The Company undertakes no obligation and does
not intend to update, revise or otherwise publicly release the result of any

PART I
DiaSys Corporation (the "Company") was organized in 1992 in the State of
Connecticut and effected a statutory merger into a Delaware Corporation of the
same name in 1993. The Company completed its initial public offering on January
10, 1995 and trades on NASDAQ under the symbol "DIYS".
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Result's of Operation:
PRODUCT STRATEGY:
The Company's product strategy is to develop workstation products and systems
that improve accuracy and reduce the costs to perform routine medical testing
procedures.
"R/S" Series: The Company's first family of products is the "R/S" series of
urine sediment workstations. These workstations increase the accuracy,
productivity and safety of the numerous laboratories, which routinely analyze
urine sediment. The "R/S" family is comprised of three models:
The R/S 1000 serves the needs of laboratories conducting fewer than 20 urine
tests at a time such as doctor office laboratories, out patient clinics, and
"stat" labs where accuracy, standardization and quick turnaround are of utmost
importance. The R/S 2000 serves mid-sized laboratories such as general
hospitals. The R/S 2003 accommodates high volume laboratories such as clinical
reference labs.
Users of the "R/S" series workstations include: (i) large scale clinical
laboratory chains performing in excess of 20,000 urine tests per night; (ii)
major medical centers performing hundreds of urine tests per day; and, (iii)
local hospital laboratories performing as few as 100 tests per week. The "R/S"
series workstations have also been the subject of numerous favorable evaluations
and publications including the Journal of Laboratory Medicine, Clinical Lab
Products magazine, American Clinical Laboratory magazine, European Clinical
Laboratory magazine, College Of American Pathology Today and Urinalysis News.
The "R/S" series workstations are the preferred practice for major laboratory
networks such as SmithKline Beecham and Kaiser Permanente (California), and was
profiled in 1997 Spinoff, the annual report of technology published by the
National Aeronautical And Space Administration (NASA).
The Company has also entered into a strategic cooperation agreement regarding
the promotion and sale of its "R/S" series workstations with and by Bayer
Corporation in the United States, Bayer Incorporated in Canada, and Hua Sin
Science Co. LTD, the exclusive distributor of BAYER's urinalysis instruments
in China (See: STRATEGIC RELATIONSHIPS below).
"FE" Series: The Company's fourth workstation product, the FE-2, is the first
of a family of products designed by the Company for use in microbiology. More
specifically, the FE-2 is a counter top instrument which automates and reduces
the cost of microscopic analysis of fecal concentrates. Microscopic analysis
of feces is performed by thousands of hospitals, public health and private
commercial laboratories world wide in order to detect the presence of ova
(eggs), cysts, and parasites in the lower intestinal tract of humans and
animals. The presence of such organisms is critical to the proper care of
the patient. The test is non-invasive, can be performed on an out-patient
basis, and quickly provides confirmatory results.
The FE-2 increases the level of safety and precision by automating the
aspiration, resuspension, staining or diluting, transfer, presentation and
disposal of fecal concentrates. It also eliminates the need and cost of
disposable pipettes, microscope slides, and cover slips. The FE-2 reduces
analysis time and increases accuracy by establishing strict physical parameters
of the viewing area. Moreover, since the fecal concentrate is contained in and
manipulated through a sealed system, the technologist is no longer exposed to
prolonged inhalation of the noxious nature of the fecal material.
The CytoSys: The Company has developed a new methodology for cell counting,
sorting and analysis for research applications, especially with regard to the
study of human diabetes and non-human fluids. Work with cultured cells often
requires a precise knowledge of the cell count both to standardize conditions
and to carry out quantitative experiments. The Company expects to release this
product at the meeting of the Clinical Laboratory Management Association (CLMA)
later this year.
Additional Product Development: The Company is developing several additional
workstation products, which automate and standardize routine analysis of human
and non-human fluids. Each workstation is or will be designed to increase the
precision and reduce the cost of performing an otherwise labor intensive,
manually oriented laboratory procedure.
SALES PLAN:
North America: The Company sells and services its workstation-products through
its headquarters offices in Waterbury, CT. North America is organized into six
distinct sales regions. Each sales office is staffed by a manager and each
manager is responsible for sales and service of the Company's products in
his/her region. North American sales efforts are supported by a Field Service
Coordinator, a Director of Strategic Accounts and a marketing associate, each
located at the Company's headquarters office.
Each sales manager earns a base salary, commissions and bonuses based upon
achievement of monthly, quarterly and yearly sales quota objectives. The Company
does not rely on independent sales representatives and/or dealers to promote
and/or distribute the Company's workstations in North America. Sales in North
America are facilitated by a series of marketing programs which include
telemarketing, direct mail campaigns, advertising in key trade journals,
participation in technical workshops, and exhibitions at national trade shows.
International: The Company promotes and sells its workstations through
distributors in parts of Europe, Central America, China and parts of Pacific-
Asia. European operations are supported by a Country Manager based in England.
The Country Manager is paid a monthly retainer and an incentive based upon
achievement of certain goals. He is not an employee of the Company. Chinese and
Pacific Asian operations are managed by local distributors under the direction
and guidance of the Company's President.
STRATEGIC RELATIONSHIPS:
Bayer Corporation: The Company has entered into a Strategic Cooperation
Agreement with the Diagnostics Division of Bayer Corporation, the United States
subsidiary of the international chemical and health care conglomerate, Bayer AG
headquartered in Germany. Under the Cooperation Agreement, Bayer and DiaSys
recommend and refer each other's urinalysis workstations to hospital and
commercial laboratory customers in the United States. The companies also
confer on account strategy and provide unified network standardization plans
through Bayer at the request of the customer. Each company installs and
services its own equipment. The Company has started to realize sales of its
workstations through its strategic relationship with Bayer. The Company's
activities have also assisted Bayer with the sale of its urine chemistry
analyzers.
As of March 31, 2000 there were over 180 customers using Bayer/DiaSys systems in
North America.
Bayer Incorporated: On June 27, 1996 the Company entered into a strategic
cooperation agreement with Bayer Inc., the Canadian subsidiary of the
international and health care giant, Bayer AG (Germany). Under the agreement,
Bayer's Health Care Division and the Company jointly market their urine
analysis workstations to hospitals and clinical reference laboratories in
Canada. The two companies have also agreed to engage in joint product
development if and as mutually advisable. The parties renewed their agreement
for an additional two years on June 30, 1999.
Government Contracts: The Company has been awarded two supply contracts: (i)
one by the General Services Administration (GSA), and (ii) one by the Veteran's
Association. The GSA contract allows government agencies to purchase
workstations, and the Federal Supply Schedule (FSS) allows the network of
Veteran's Hospitals to lease workstations on a "cost-per-test" basis,
circumventing the need for the capital budgeting process.
Hua Sin Science Co., LTD: Effective March 1, 1999 the Company entered into a
multi-year sales and service agreement with Hua Sin Science Co. LTD, located in
Guangzhou China. Hua Sin manufactures and distributes instruments and reagents
to China's 60,000 hospital and medical laboratories. Hua Sin is also the
exclusive distributor of BAYER's CLINITEK series urine chemistry analyzers in
China. The Company officially commenced joint operations with Hua Sin in
Guangzhou during the week of April 12, 1999. As of March 31, 2000 Hua Sin has
ordered 107 "R/S" urine sediment workstations, 65 of which have or in the
process of being delivered.
Lenta, LTD: Effective August, 1 1999, the Company entered into a multiple year
Sales and Service agreement with Lenta Teshis Orunleri Ticaret ve Sanayi Ltd.
St, (Lenta). Lenta is a leading distributor of urinalysis and diagnostic
equipment with headquarter officers in Istanbul and 14 correspondent offices
throughout Turkey. The Company officially commenced joint operations with
Lenta on September 7, 1999 in Istanbul. As of March 31, 2000 Lenta has: (i)
ordered fifty (50) R/S series urine sediment workstations of which twenty (20)
have been delivered; and (ii) ten (10) FE-2 workstations for fecal concentrates,
all of which have been delivered.
Other Significant Contracts: The Company has established a number of other
important relationships with large-scale national laboratory networks and
buying groups. The Company's workstations are used in multiple sites in each
of the five largest commercial laboratory networks in the nation.
PROPRIETARY RIGHTS:
Patents: The Company has been granted numerous patents on its "R/S" and "FE"
series technology. Three such patents have been issued by the United States
Department of Commerce both on the concept and specific architecture of the
Company's urine and feces workstation products. The Company has also been
granted similar patent protection in Canada, Brazil, Japan, Singapore, Taiwan,
Austria, Belgium, Denmark, England, France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Italy,
Luxembourg, Liechtenstein, Monaco, the Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, Sweden
and Switzerland. The Company has additional applications for patents pending,
both domestically and abroad.
Trade Names: The Company has been granted trade name protection for DiaSys,
UriZyme (an enzyme based cleaning material) and Uriprep, (a repair and
maintenance kit). The Company has additional applications pending for trade
names in the United States, Europe and Pacific Asia.
YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE
Neither the Company nor its products were adversely affected by the year 2000
(Y2K) problem.
MANUFACTURING AND WARRANTY OBLIGATION:
The Company internally designs and manufactures its workstation products. The
Company purchases sub-assemblies and parts designed according to Company
specifications, and assembles and final tests the sub-assemblies and parts
within its own facility. The Company has developed alternate qualified
suppliers for its critical raw part and subassembly materials.
The Company provides its customers with a one year "swap out" warranty against
defects in parts or workmanship on all new or refurbished units from the date
of delivery, generally defined as FOB, DiaSys. This means that in the event
a unit fails from a defect in parts and/or workmanship during the warranty
period, the Company will replace the unit with a new or refurbished unit at
the Company's option. For service after the initial year of warranty, the
Company offers an optional extended warranty protection plan, a service plan,
and also provides repair and service at an hourly rate plus parts. The
Company experiences minimal additional costs associated with its warranty
obligations.
FINANCIAL CONDITION:
Liquidity and Capital Resources:
As of March 31, 2000, the Company had cash and equivalents of $875,728
compared to $226,173 at December 31, 1999. The increase in cash and
equivalents was mainly due to the sale of 1,000 shares of convertible
preferred of which the Company received net proceeds before legal and
accounting costs of $895,000. Additionally, the Company received total
proceeds of $179,438 from the exercise of warrants and options. (see OTHER
INFORMATION , below.)
Based on cash and continuing operations, management believes that it has
sufficient funds and resources on hand to discharge its obligations as they
become due for at least the next 12 months.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net Revenue:
The Company's net revenue increased 31% to $234,236 for the third quarter 2000
from $179,008 for the same period last year. Revenue increased 80% to $762,215
for the nine-months ending March 31, 2000 from $422,751 for the same period
last year. The increase in Net Revenue was due to continued implementation of
the Company's sales programs.
Gross Profit:
Gross profit margins decreased to 66% for the third quarter 2000 from 82%
compared to the same period last year. The Company's nine-month gross profit
margin decreased to 73% from 77% compared to the same period last year. Gross
profit margins decreased in the third quarter due to increased manufacturing
costs associated with the expense of two "R/S" subassemblies. Management
expects gross profit margins to increase as the two subassemblies are brought
to full production.
Selling General And Administrative (SG&A):
For the three-month period ending March 31, 2000, SG&A increased to $354,184
from $226,915 for the same period last year. This increase was mainly due to
certain unusual legal and accounting fees of approximately $80,000 associated
with the Company's merger and acquisition plan.
For the nine-month period ending March 31, 2000, SG&A remained essentially flat
at $915,227 compared to $900,006 for the same period last year.
Research And Development (R&D):
R&D expenses increased to $73,418 for the third quarter 2000 from $40,624 for
the same period last year. The increase was due to higher costs associated with
the Company's new product development.
R&D expenses increased slightly to $237,756 for the nine-months ending March 31,
2000 from $222,339 for the same period last year.
Net (Loss):
Net loss increased to $271,852 for the third quarter 2000 from $96,915 for the
same period last year. The increase in loss was mainly due to certain unusual
legal and accounting fees of approximately $80,000 associated with the Company's
merger and acquisition plan.
Net loss decreased to $582,546 for the nine-month period ending March 31, 2000
from $731,470 for the same period last year. Management attributes the
decrease in net loss to increased sales, continued cost control of the
Company's operating expenses, and lower acquisition-related expenses.
PART II OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings:
As previously disclosed, the Company was awarded damages of $335,000 in a
certain arbitration action against Intelligent Medical Imaging, Inc. (NASD:
IMII OB). Subsequent to the award, IMI filed for bankruptcy protection
