HYDROMAID INTERNATIONAL, INC.

 

Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements

For the Three-month and Nine-month Periods Ended September 30, 2002 and September 30, 2001.

 

1. NATURE OF BUSINESS, REORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

Nature of Business

 

HydroMaid International, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in 1992 in the State of Nevada and engages in the development, manufacture, and sale of a patented water-powered garbage disposal known as the HydroMaid® (the “Product”). Technological improvements and field-testing were completed in 1997, and the Product was introduced to the market in 1998. The Company is presently engaged in improving the Product to achieve universal compliance with plumbing codes and to enhance the overall quality and performance of the Product.  The Company intends to market the Product worldwide. The Company operates from a leased facility near Salt Lake City, Utah.  One contractor in China performs the majority of the Company’s manufacturing.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The Company has prepared its condensed financial statements for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2002 and 2001 without audit by the Company’s independent auditors. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows of the Company as of September 30, 2002 and for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2002 and 2001 have been made. Such adjustments consist only of normal recurring adjustments.

 

Certain note disclosures normally included in the Company’s annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) have been condensed or omitted. The accompanying condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-KSB annual report for 2001 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

The results of operations for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

 

2. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

Recent accounting pronouncements discussed in the notes to the December 31, 2001 and 2000 audited financial statements, filed previously with the Securities and Exchange Commission in Form 10-KSB, that were required to be adopted during the year ending December 31, 2002 did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

 

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 145 rescinds three existing pronouncements (relating to the intangible assets of motor carriers and certain debt extinguishments), amends SFAS No. 13, “Accounting for Leases”, and makes technical corrections that are not substantive in nature to several other pronouncements.  The amendment of SFAS No. 13, which is effective for transactions occurring after May 15, 2002, requires sale-leaseback accounting by lessees for certain lease modifications that are economically similar to sale-leaseback transactions.  SFAS No. 145 did not affect the accompanying 2002 financial statements, and is not presently expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s future financial statements.

 

SFAS No. 146, “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities,” is effective for such activities initiated after December 31, 2002.  Activities of this type include restructurings (such as relocation of a business and fundamental reorganizations of a business itself), which may give rise to costs such as contract cancellation provisions, employee relocation, and one-time termination costs.  SFAS No. 146 prohibits liability recognition based solely on management’s intent, and requires that liabilities be measured at estimated fair value.  Management has not determined the effect, if any, of SFAS No. 146 on the Company’s future financial statements.

4. ADVANCES TO RELATED PARTIES

 

Lighthouse, Inc. and Liquitek Enterprises, Inc. reimburse the Company for certain allocated administrative expenses.  These expenses have generally consisted of salaries and related benefits paid to Company personnel who perform services for Lighthouse, Inc. and Liquitek Enterprises, Inc.  Allocations of personnel costs have been based primarily on actual time spent by Company employees; management believes that such allocation method is reasonable.  Amounts charged to Lighthouse, Inc. and Liquitek Enterprises, Inc. have directly offset the Company’s operating expenses by approximately $12,300 and $322,300 for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

 

The Company reimburses Lighthouse, Inc. for certain allocated overhead expenses related to its rented office space.  The Company nets the amount charged by Lighthouse, Inc. against the amounts charged for administrative expenses described in the preceding paragraph.  Lighthouse, Inc. charged approximately $14,100 and $27,800, respectively, to the Company for allocated overhead for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2002 and 2001.

 

On December 31, 2001, the Company, Lighthouse, Inc. and Liquitek Enterprises, Inc. agreed that Liquitek Enterprises, Inc. would assume the responsibility for the total Lighthouse, Inc. obligation to the Company in consideration for Liquitek Enterprises, Inc. being relieved of its obligation to Lighthouse, Inc. The net effect of this transaction was to eliminate Lighthouse, Inc. from any obligation to the Company as of December 31, 2001 and resulted in a total related party receivable from Liquitek Enterprises, Inc. of $709,870.  During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2002, Liquitek Enterprises, Inc. incurred an additional $21,535 in allocated operating expenses and accrued interest making the total receivable balance from Liquitek Enterprises, Inc. approximately $731,405.  The Company has reserved $729,560 as a doubtful account because substantial doubt exists as to Liquitek Enterprises, Inc.’s ability to repay the debt. The net balance of this receivable at September 30, 2002 is included in prepaid expenses and other assets on the accompanying condensed balance sheets.

 

5. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

At September 30, 2002, the Company had outstanding commitments of approximately $1,925,000 to purchase finished goods from its contractor in China.  Due to the Company’s current financial condition, the contractor has agreed to suspend production of certain units representing approximately $1,650,000 of such commitment.  The Company has indemnified the contractor in the amount of approximately $645,000 for any loss that may result from contractor-owned components if such inventory becomes obsolete due to a change in the Product’s design.   The indemnification has been made in the form of a cash deposit to the contractor, included on the accompanying balance sheets as advances to foreign contractor.  The contractor has agreed that when production resumes, a credit of approximately $18 will be applied against the cost of each unit shipped to the Company.  The Company is currently in discussions with the foreign contractor to settle the account and all outstanding liabilities.  Management recognizes that the full value of the advance will not be realized as the Company’s liabilities to the foreign contractor exceeds the amount of the indemnification.  Management believes that in the settlement of this account the Company will receive approximately 6,000 finished HydroMaid units currently in the foreign contractors inventory with a value of approximately $400,000.  Therefore, Management believes the realizable value of the indemnification to

 

8



 

be the value of the inventory of $400,000.  During the three-month period ended September 30, 2002 the Company recorded an impairment of the advance of approximately $245,000.  It is reasonably possible, pending the outcome of the discussions with the foreign contractor, that management’s estimate of the realizable value of the advance will change.

 

6. NOTES PAYABLE

 

The Company obtained an oral agreement from a private investment fund to provide bridge financing for working capital at minimum levels deemed essential to the maintenance of the Company until permanent long-term financing is obtained.  The bridge financing during the nine-months ended September 30, 2002 for $207,000 is in the form of unsecured notes maturing in 12 months and bearing interest at 12% per annum with principal and accrued interest payable at maturity.  The notes, at any time prior to maturity, shall have the right to convert to equity of the Company according to terms of a private placement equity offering to be developed in the future.

 

Subsequent to September 30, 2002, the Company received an additional $150,000 in bridge financing from the private investment fund on the same terms disclosed above.  Additionally, the Company is currently in discussions with the private investment fund to convert the bridge financing to a secured position in the company.

 

7. LIQUIDITY CONSIDERATIONS

 

As discussed in Note 1, the Company manufactures and markets the HydroMaid® water-powered garbage disposal. Since the introduction of the HydroMaid® to the marketplace in 1998, sales have not been sufficient to provide positive operating cash flow. The Company’s operating cash flow deficit for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2002 was approximately $256,000. Management anticipates, based on the cash balance, ongoing sales, collection of receivables, reduction of expenses, and the expectation of ongoing bridge financing from a private investment fund to provide for the short-term operating needs of the Company until permanent equity financing can be realized.  The Company expects to raise additional capital through a private placement equity offering to fund further development of present and anticipated operations.  There can be no assurances, though, that the Company will be able to obtain additional funds when needed, or that such funds, if available, will be obtainable on terms satisfactory to the Company.

 

8. LOSS PER COMMON SHARE

 

Loss per common and common equivalent share is based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock and potential common stock outstanding during the period in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, “Earnings per Share.”

 

The weighted average numbers of common shares outstanding for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2002 was 26,975,000, while the same data for the corresponding periods ending September 30, 2001 were 26,991,000 and 26,964,000 respectively.

 

As more fully described in the notes to the audited financial statements in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-KSB for 2001, securities that could potentially dilute basic loss per share in the future were not included in the diluted-loss-per-share computation because their effect is anti-dilutive.

 

Item 2.   Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

 

Results of Operations

 

Net sales for the three-month period ended September 30, 2002 were $17,620 compared to $22,539 for the comparable period in 2001.  Net sales of $145,314 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2002 was a significant increase over the comparable September 30, 2001 period net sales of $14,021 due to a substantial return of product from a European distributor for full credit in 2001 because of water-pressure related performance problems in their marketplace.   Gross sales for the three-month period ending September 30, 2002 are comparable to the same period in 2001.  Gross sales for the nine-month period ending September 30, 2002 have increased by approximately $33,000 from sales to international distributors in Malaysia, Russia, and Japan over the comparable period in 2001.

 

9



 

The gross profit margin increased from 51%, for the three months ended September 30, 2001 to 53% for the comparable period in 2002.  The gross profit margin decreased from 83% for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2001, not including the product return described above, to 60% for the comparable period in 2002.  The Company has not included the sales return from the European distributor described in the paragraph above in the gross profit margin calculations because its inclusion causes negative numbers and low percentage bases, which confuse the meaning of the ratios.   The Company anticipates its gross margin will fluctuate in this approximate range until product designs stabilize and volume sales begin to be realized.

 

Operating expenses were $467,102 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2002 compared to $562,055 for the comparable period in 2001, while operating expenses were $1,083,860 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2002 compared to $2,138,987 for the comparable period in 2001.  Current year Operating expenses have decreased significantly over the prior year despite the $245,000 write-down during the three month period ended September 30, 2002 of the advance to foreign contractor (see note 5 to the unaudited condensed financial statements).  These decreases are a result of efforts made by management to reduce spending across the board, due to lack of working capital, in all categories including rents, salaries and wages, postage, communications, and other general and administrative expenses.  Also, the Company did not attend the major industry trade shows during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2002 as it did during the comparable period in 2001, a savings of approximately $320,000.

 

The Company experienced a loss before interest income and income tax benefit and corresponding loss per share of $457,739 and $0.02, respectively, for the three-month period ended September 30, 2002, compared to a loss before interest income and income tax benefit and loss per share of $538,346 and $0.02, respectively, for the comparable period in 2001.  The losses for the nine-month period ending September 30, 2002 were $988,474 and $0.04 compared to losses for the same period of the preceding year of $2,075,287 and $0.08.

 

Liquidity

 

Management anticipates, based on the cash balance, ongoing sales, collection of receivables, reduction of expenses, and the expectation of ongoing bridge financing from a private investment fund to provide for the short-term operating needs of the Company until permanent equity financing can be realized.  The Company expects to raise additional capital through a private placement equity offering to fund further development of present and anticipated operations until the Company can accomplish self-sustaining cash flows.

 

The Company has been successful in its efforts to expand international distribution channels.   These efforts have included development of distribution agreements for the HydroMaid® in many countries throughout the world including: the United Kingdom, South Africa, Poland, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, Thailand, Russia, and Lithuania.  Additionally, the Company is pursuing agreements for Canada, Australia, New Zealand, China, Japan, and Taiwan.  Due to the successful marketing efforts in the international markets, the Company’s management anticipates demand for the HydroMaid® to grow substantially internationally.

 

The Company’s engineering efforts have resulted in a finished design for the Atmospheric Anti-Siphon Valve, as well as, a redesign of the Piston U-cup Seal.  The Company is waiting the additional funding to complete the projects and begin the manufacturing process for these component parts.  Management expects once these two projects are completed that the HydroMaid® will meet general plumbing standards, significantly reduce returns, and enhance both international and domestic sales.

 

Subsequent Events

 

Subsequent to September 30, 2002 the Company received an additional $150,000 in bridge financing from a private investment fund with the same terms as disclosed above in Note 6 to the Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements.  Additionally, The Company is currently in discussions with the private investment fund to convert the bridge financing to a secured position in the company.
