Item 1. Financial Statements (continued)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
(1) Summary of significant accounting policies
(a) Organization
Tripos, Inc. (the "Company") delivers science, tools and
analysis services that advance customers' creativity and
productivity in pharmaceutical, agrochemical, biotechnology and
related research industries worldwide. The Company is also a value-
added reseller of third party hardware products required to operate
its software products. A substantial portion of the Company's
business is conducted with pharmaceutical companies, however, the
Company is not economically dependent on any customer on an ongoing
basis.
(b) Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements
have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles for interim financial information and with the
instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X.
Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for
complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all
normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of
such financial statements have been included. Operating results
for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1996 are
not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for
the year ended December 31, 1996.
(2) Income taxes
The provision for income taxes is computed using the liability
method. The difference between financial statement and taxable
income results primarily from the use of different methods of
computing capitalized development costs, accrued vacation and
customer deposits. The difference between the Company's effective
tax rate and the statutory rate is primarily the result of
recognizing the benefit of certain tax carryforwards for which no
previous benefit had been recognized.
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations
Overview
The Company's quarterly operating results can vary
significantly depending upon such factors as the capital
expenditure budgets of its customers, lengthy sales cycles, market
acceptance of new products and enhanced versions of existing
products, the timing of new product introductions by the Company
and other vendors, changes in pricing policies by the Company and
other vendors, and changes in general economic and competitive
conditions. In addition, a substantial portion of the Company's
revenues for each quarter is attributable to a limited number of
orders and tends to be realized towards the end of each quarter.
Thus, even short delays or deferrals of sales near the end of a
quarter can cause quarterly results to fluctuate substantially.
The Company typically experiences greater gross margins on software
licenses, consulting, and compound sales than on sales of hardware.
The Company's profitability depends in part on the mix of its
revenue components and not necessarily on total revenues.
Results of Operations
Net sales for the third quarter of 1996 were $7.6 million
compared with $5.3 million for the third quarter of 1995. The
overall increase in net sales for the quarter was attributed to a
significant increase in accelerated discovery services sales,
principally chemical compound sales. Net sales for the first nine
months of 1996 were $19.2 million compared to $14.3 million for the
same period in 1995. Sales increases were achieved in software
licenses, support, hardware and accelerated discovery services, for
the nine month period. Accelerated discovery services is a new
product line, consisting of diverse compound libraries and
consulting services, which was introduced in the third quarter of
1995.
For the three months ended September 30, 1996, software
licenses sales decreased 5.2% to $2.2 million. The decrease is due
to several large orders in the third quarter of 1995 which was an
unusual deviation from historical third quarter sales. 1996 third
quarter software revenues are more representative of those
historical trends. For the first nine months of 1996, software
license sales increased 1.4% to $6.4 million compared to the same
period for 1995. Support revenues for the third quarter of 1996
increased 2.4% to $1.7 million from the same period in 1995.
Support sales increased 2.8% to $4.9 million for the nine month
period ending September 30, 1996. Accelerated discovery services
sales, primarily diverse compound libraries, amounted to $3.1
million in the third quarter of 1996 and $5.0 million for the nine
months year-to-date compared to $0.6 million for the three and nine
month periods in 1995. The collaboration with Panlabs, Inc. to
design and manufacture chemical compounds was initiated late in the
second quarter of 1995 with the first sales in the third quarter
and continues to meet expectations. Hardware sales decreased by
33.3% to $0.5 million for the third quarter 1996. For the first
nine months of 1996, hardware sales increased 8.0% to $2.8 million
compared to 1995. Sales to existing customers represent 83% of
total revenues for the nine month period. For the same period,
sales of new products represent 34% of software license and
discovery service sales.
Net sales for the Company's activities outside North America
represented approximately 50.7% for the first nine months of 1996
compared to 49.0% for the same period in 1995. Net sales in Europe
increased 35.6% for the first nine months of 1996 compared to 1995
and accounted for 39.8% and 39.2% of net sales for the nine month
periods in 1996 and 1995, respectively. Net sales in the Pacific
Rim, principally Japan and South Korea, increased 49.5% compared to
the first nine months of 1995 and accounted for 10.9% and 9.7% of
net sales for the respective periods.
Cost of sales for the quarter ending September 30, 1996
increased 50.5% to $2.3 million and increased 61.5% to $6.5 million
for the nine month period in 1996. These increases were due to the
increased diverse compound library sales and narrower margins on
hardware sales. Cost of sales as a percent of net sales was 31.0%
and 33.8% for the three and nine month periods in 1996, and 29.2%
and 28.0% for the three and nine month periods in 1995,
respectively.
Gross profit margin percentage for the third quarter of 1996
declined to 69.0% from 70.8% in 1995. For the first nine months of
1996, gross margin percentage decreased to 66.2% from 72.0% for the
same period in 1995. The decrease is attributable to a change in
the sales mix in that lower margin revenue sources, specifically
hardware and chemical compound sales, represent a higher percentage
of total net sales in 1996 compared to 1995.
Sales and marketing expenses increased 5.5% to $2.7 million
for the three month period in 1996 and 5.6% to $7.7 million for the
nine months period. Sales and marketing expenses as a percentage
of net sales were 36.3% and 40.4% for the three and nine month
periods in 1996 as compared to 48.8% and 51.1% for the same periods
in 1995. The decrease in the percent to sales, for the three and
nine month periods of 1996, is a function of increased sales in all
categories along with improved efficiencies among the sales and
marketing staff.
Research and development costs, including the costs that were
capitalized, were $1.6 million and $2.1 million for the three month
periods in 1996 and 1995, $5.5 million and $4.4 million for the
nine month periods, respectively and represented 21.4%, 38.6%,
28.7% and 31.0% of net sales. Research and development expenses,
net of capitalized development costs, represented 11.3% and 16.9%
of net sales for the three month periods in 1996 and 1995, and
12.9% and 18.5% of net sales for the nine month periods ending
September 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. The decrease as a
percentage of net sales for the period is due to reductions in
development staff resulting from the discontinuation of Unison and
the higher sales for the periods in 1996. The Company anticipates
that its investments in new product research will remain at
comparable levels as Tripos continues development in web-based
tools, desktop, database, diverse compound libraries and
combinatorial chemistry markets.
General and administrative expenses increased to $0.7 million
for the third quarter of 1996 compared to $0.3 million in 1995, and
represent 9.6% and 6.2% of net sales for the respective periods.
The increase in G&A for the third quarter 1996 compared to 1995 is
primarily due to the accrual of the Company's bonus for achieving
the qualifying threshold of operating income and an increase in the
bad debt provision. For the nine month period, G & A expenses were
$1.5 million and $1.1 million in 1996 and 1995, respectively. G&A
year-to-date percent to net sales was unchanged at 7.7% in 1996
compared to 1995
Other income decreased from of $122,000 for the third quarter
in 1995 to $47,000 for the comparable period in 1996. For the
first nine months of 1996, other income was $174,000 compared to
$383,000 in 1995. This change was due to an increase in foreign
currency translation losses, a slight decline in interest income on
investments, and the recognition of the Company's equity percentage
interest in the losses of Phase-1 Molecular Toxicology, Inc.
Income tax expense was $302,000 for the nine month period in
1996 which represents an effective tax rate of 26%. The rate is
the Company's anticipated effective rate for the year ending
December 31, 1996 and reflects the recognition of the benefit of
certain tax carryforwards for which no previous benefit had been
recognized.
Liquidity, Capital Resources and Capital Commitments
For the nine month period ending September 30, 1996, net cash
provided by operations was $3.4 million as a result of a decrease
in working capital of $0.5 million and increases in net income,
depreciation, and amortization of $0.9 million, $0.5 million, and
$2.2 million, respectively. Largest among these is amortization of
which $1.9 million is attributable to the cost of manufacturing the
compound library. For the same period in 1995, net cash provided
by operations was $0.9 million primarily due to an increase in
depreciation and amortization of $1.3 million and a decrease in
working capital of $0.5 million.
Investments of $0.4 million in property and equipment, $0.3
million in marketable securities, $0.3 million in an equity
position in Phase-1 Molecular Toxicology, Inc. and $3.0 million in
capitalized development costs, resulted in a use of cash of
approximately $4.0 million in the first three quarters of 1996.
The Company believes that current working capital, together
with cash from operations, will be adequate to fund short-term
liquidity requirements including investment in research and
development, capital purchases and any other commitments in the
upcoming year. The Company may seek to obtain additional financing
at any time in connection with the Company's product development
efforts and its efforts to penetrate existing and new markets for
its products, depending upon the associated working capital
requirements.

RIGHTS AND REMEDIES IN THE EVENT OF DEFAULT
.1 Upon the occurrence of and during an Event of Default,
Bank may declare all of the indebtedness outstanding hereunder
immediately due and payable without demand or notice of any kind,
the same being hereby expressly waived, and such indebtedness
shall thereupon be and become immediately due and payable and the
obligation of Bank to make additional advances shall cease.
Further, notwithstanding the cure period noted in Section 5.1
above, Bank shall have no obligation to advance any further funds
under the credit during any such cure period.
.2 No failure on the part of Bank to exercise, and no
delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a
waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise by Bank
of any right hereunder preclude any other or further exercise
thereof, or the exercise of any other right. Each and every
right granted to Bank hereunder or under any document delivered
hereunder or in connection therewith or allowed to it at law or
in equity shall be deemed cumulative and may be exercised from
time to time.
.3 It is agreed by Borrower that any Event of Default will
constitute an event of default under all other agreements and
evidences of indebtedness between Borrower and the Bank whether
now existing or hereafter executed and whether or not such is an
event of default specified therein.

Agreement, nor consent to any departure by Borrower herefrom,

demand on Borrower in any case shall entitle Borrower to any
other or further notice or demand in similar or other
circumstances.
.2 In case any one or more of the provisions contained in
this Agreement, the Note, or any other instrument or document
delivered hereunder, shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable
