Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations
General
DualStar Technologies Corporation, through its wholly owned
subsidiaries, provides mechanical, electrical, electronic
and control, environmental, security, telecommunications,
direct broadcast satellite and cable television, and high-
speed Internet access systems, services and solutions to a
wide range of customers primarily in the New York Tri-State
area.
Certain information contained in this report includes
"forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, which is
subject to certain risks and uncertainties, including those
"Risk Factors" set forth in DualStar Technologies
Corporation and Subsidiaries' (the "Company") Annual Report
on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1998.
Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these
forward-looking statements which speak only as of the date
hereof. The Company undertakes no obligation to release
publicly any revisions to these forward-looking statements
to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or
to reflect unanticipated events or developments.
Capital Resources and Liquidity
Cash balances at September 30, and June 30, 1998 were
approximately $0.9 million and $1.4 million, respectively.
The Company's operations used approximately $1.3 million of
cash in the three months ended September 30, 1998, and
provided approximately $0.4 million of cash in the three
months ended September 30, 1997.
Further, in the three months ended September 30, 1998 and
1997, the Company acquired capital assets of approximately
$23,000 and $326,000, respectively, substantially all of
which represented investments in telecommunication
infrastructure systems for buildings in return for rights to
provide telephone, cable television and high-speed Internet
services to the buildings' residents.
In July 1998, the Company entered a $1 million loan
agreement with an investment group. The loan and any unpaid
interest is due and payable on demand and bears an interest
rate of 10% per annum. The loan is collateralized by the
Company's building (which is subordinate to the building's
first mortgage) and the Company's cash and accounts
receivable.
Although the Company had net income of approximately $11,000
and $556,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1998
and the year ended June 30, 1998, respectively, the Company
experienced losses of approximately $6.5 million and $3.8
million for the years ended June 30, 1997 and 1996,
respectively. At September 30, and June 30, 1998, working
capital was approximately $409,000 and $365,000,
respectively. To improve working capital, the Company
continues to consolidate certain subsidiaries' operations
and is considering the sale of certain subsidiaries. In
addition, the Company's mechanical contracting and service
businesses reorganized their engineering, drafting and
project management departments so that overhead can be
reduced and project costs can be controlled better. The
Company believes that based on the foregoing, current
cash on hand, and future cash from operating and investing
activities should be sufficient to cover current operations.
There can be no assurance, however, that the Company will
achieve these plans. In the event that additional working
capital becomes necessary to fund operations, there can be
no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain
financing on terms satisfactory to it.
Results of Operations
Contract revenues decreased 12.2% in the three months ended
September 30, 1998 to $19.9 million, down $2.8 million from
the comparable period of 1997. The decrease was due
primarily to the Company either completing or beginning
several large contracts. Since such revenue streams
typically peak during the middle of a project, this
depressed contract revenues during this period.
Gross profit decreased $0.2 million in the three months
ended September 30, 1998 to $2.1 million from the comparable
period in 1997. The gross profit margins were 10.7% and
10.4% for the three months ended September 30, 1998 and
1997, respectively. The decrease in gross profit was
attributable to the decrease in contract revenues.
General and administrative expenses increased $0.2 million
in the three months ended September 30, 1998 to $2.1 million
from the comparable period of 1997. As a percentage of
revenue, general and administrative expenses increased to
10.6% for the three months ended September 30, 1998 from
8.2% for the three months ended September 30, 1997. The
increase as a percentage of revenue was due primarily to the
decrease in contract revenues.
