MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
NINE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996 COMPARED TO THE NINE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30,
1995
Revenues for the nine months ended June 30, 1996, were $692,782 compared to
$286,619 for the nine months ended June 30, 1995. The $406,163 increase was
due to an increase in sales of water purification systems and bottled water,
principally in Vietnam. Gross profit for the nine months ended June 30, 1996
was 32% compared to a loss for the nine months ended June 30, 1995. The
improvement in gross profit is due to lower component costs for water
purification systems.
Costs and expenses were $2,792,988 for the nine months ended June 30, 1996,
compared to $2,371,496 for the nine months ended June 30, 1995, an increase of
$421,492. Compensation and benefits increased $203,276 for the nine month
period ended June 30, 1996 compared to the nine month period ended June 30,
1995 due to increased staff levels primarily related to the Company's
operations in Vietnam. Expenses related to professional services, primarily
legal, audit and marketing increased by $238,768 in the nine month period
ended June 30, 1996 compared to the nine month period ended June 30, 1995.
Other general and administrative expenses decreased $97,634 in the nine month
period ended June 30, 1996 compared to 1995. Depreciation expense increased a
total of $36,294 in the nine month period ended June 30, 1996 compared to the
nine months ended June 30, 1995 due to an increase in fixed assets in the water
bottling plant in Vietnam. Research and development related expenses of
increased $40,788 in the nine month period ended June 30, 1996 compared to
1995 due to continued research on new water purification products.
Interest and other income was $113,241 for the nine month period ended
June 30, 1996, compared other expense of $96,604 for the nine months ended
June 30, 1995. The income in the nine month period ended June 30, 1996 was
due to interest earned on short term investments made by the Company. The
expense in the nine month period ended June 30, 1995 was due to the
Company accruing interest expense on a loan payable to Casmyn Corp., this
loan was exchanged for equity and not in place in the nine month period ended
June 30, 1996.
THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996 COMPARED TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30,
1995
Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 1996 were $138,503 compared to
$95,540 for the three months ended June 30, 1995. The $42,963 increase is due
to an increase in sales of water purification equipment and sales of bottled
water in the newly opened water bottling plant located in Vietnam.
Costs and expenses were $1,041,764 for the three months ended June 30, 1996
compared to $606,457 for the three months ended June 30, 1995, an increase of
$435,307. Compensation and benefits increased $302,527, for the three month
period ended June 30, 1996 compared to the three month period ended June 30,
1995 due to increased staff levels primarily related to the Company's
operations in Vietnam. Expenses related to professional services, primarily
legal, audit and marketing increased by $107,892, in the three month period
ended June 30, 1996 compared to the three month period ended June 30, 1995.
Depreciation expense increased $27,276 in the three months ended June 30, 1996
compared to the prior year three month period due to an increase in fixed assets
in the water bottling plant in Vietnam. These increases were offset by
a decrease in research and development related expenses of $2,388.
<PAGE>
Interest and other income was $35,906 for the three month period ended
June 30, 1996, compared to other expense of $32,201 for the three months ended
June 30, 1995. This income in the three month period ended June 30, 1996 was
due to interest earned on short term investments made by the Company.
The expense in the three month period ended June 30, 1995 was due to
the Company accruing interest expense on a loan payable to Casmyn Corp.,
this loan was exchangedfor equity and not in place in the three month period
ended June 30, 1996.
CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY
At June 30, 1996, the Company's working capital was $1,469,170, including
$441,103 in cash and cash equivalents. However, working capital also
included $1,280,842 in inventory which resulted from the Company's plan to build
inventory in anticipation of sales. The Company has active sales and marketing
programs underway in various countries, primarily Vietnam, India,the U.A.E.
and Africa. In addition, the Company has begun an extensive sales and marketing
program in North America.
Management anticipates that the net use of cash by operations will increase
during the foreseeable future due to expenditures related to the development
of various markets for the Company's water purification products and
technologies. The Company will use current cash and cash equivalents to fund
current operations and to fund on-going projects. The Company has obtained a
commitment from Casmyn Corp., a related party, to fund up to $400,000 to
support, through short-term loans, the Company's near term operations. It is
management's opinion that this interim funding will be sufficient to provide
necessary operating funds until the Company is able to convert its inventory to
cash. Longer term projects will necessitate the Company identifying funding
sources to support those projects. The Company is currently in discussions with
a variety of debt and equity financing sources to help fund both current
operations and future projects. The timing of future projects will depend
significantly on the availability of such funding, however success of obtaining
adequate funding is not assured.
As evidence of the Company's ability to secure debt and/or financing, in the
fiscal year ended September 30, 1995, the Company received $3,700,000, net of
commissions and other expenses related to the transactions, from the issuance of
stock in various exempt private transactions and $2,000,000 from the sale of
preferred stock to Casmyn Corp., a related party.
Net Cash Used in Operating Activities. Net cash used in operating activities
was $3,475,378 for the nine months ended June 30, 1996 compared to $1,913,475
for the nine months ended June 30, 1995. The increase in the net cash used in
operations in fiscal 1996 was due principally to the increase in the net loss
because of expenses related to development of the Company's water
purification systems.
Net Cash Used in (Provided by) Investing Activities. Net cash used in
investing activities was $918,226 for the nine months ended June 30, 1996
compared to net cash provided by investing activities of $45,223 for the nine
months ended June 30, 1995. The increase in net cash used in investing
activities was due to the purchase of equipment and improvements, primarily
related to a water bottling plant under construction in Vietnam.
<PAGE>
Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities. Net cash provided by financing
activities was $4,375,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 1996 compared to
$1,079,470 for the nine months ended June 30, 1995. The increase is due to
the Company collecting subscriptions receivable of $4,375,000 from private
placements of common and preferred stock of the Company.
The Company is organized with a relatively small, highly trained staff and
anticipates that the overall staff level will remain low in the foreseeable
future. The Company utilizes third parties to perform research, technical,
manufacturing and assembly services for its products. The Company believes
that these arrangements will not require a significant investment by the
Company in either personnel or facilities.
