Development activities during the period were funded by approximately $800,000 in additional private capital funding, and has continued to the filing of this report with an additional $750,000 from private equity capital funding. During the period the company expanded the product and corporate identification programs, which it intends to continue and intensify concurrent with the current production and in conjunction with additional production runs. Aqua Vie products are currently distributed through two major distributors in the natural foods market--Tree of Life/Gourmet Award Foods and United Natural Foods. The products are being featured in all-natural "store within a store" concepts, through various grocery chains including Safeway, Vons, Dominick's, Pavilions, Randalls, Tom Thumb, Carr's Genuardi's, Shaw's Supermarkets and Wild Harvest. Greatest concentration of retail availability is in the Pacific Northwest, Southwest, Northeast and Southeast regions of the United States. During the most recent quarter, the company scheduled and prepaid for multi-regional advertising, marketing and product demonstration programs aimed at increasing retail demand and geographic distribution. The company continues to make product available direct to consumers through its website (www.aquavie.com). Sales were flat for the quarter ended January 31, 2003 compared to the previous quarter and the year ended July 31, 2002; however, a nationwide store demonstration program is scheduled to commence in mid-April 2003. Current assets were lower at the end of the most recent period, and our current liabilities had increased by about $300,000 over the comparable period in 2002. During the quarter, the Company began a program to settle or reduce our payables and other current liabilities aimed at strengthening our balance sheet and improving our credit in anticipation of a need for factoring capital and/or lines of credit to support increased production. In conjunction with these efforts, a current note due on June 30, 2003 in the amount of $296,865 was exchanged for restricted stock in March 2003, and we also recently reduced accounts payable at January 31, 2003 of $395,000 by approximately 25% through conversion into restricted stock. 13 Production Plans and New Product Introductions In addition to its all-natural Hydrators, Aqua Vie has developed PurePlay(TM), a new line of flavored spring water for children, which contains fewer than 15 calories per serving. Production of PurePlay is expected to commence during the latter part of the third fiscal quarter of 2003, with market introduction anticipated during the fourth fiscal quarter of 2003. Additional products in development include an all-natural nonalcoholic wine made from spring water, and a low-calorie or zero-calorie Hydrator. The company anticipates introducing these latter two products through existing distribution channels during its fourth fiscal quarter. Subsequent Events Following the end of the period, the company received approximately $750,000 in additional equity capital, which is being applied to new product development, including a children's beverage line, selected product and corporate identification marketing, and additional inventory production funding. In conjunction with efforts aimed at reducing our payables and other current liabilities, in March 2003, a current note due on June 30, 2003 in the amount of $296,865 was exchanged for restricted stock. Additionally, after the close of the period we reduced ccounts payable at January 31, 2003 of $395,000 by approximately 25% through conversion into restricted stock. The increase in inventory resulting from production runs following the close of the quarter, subsequent sales and reductions we have effected in our current liabilities will be reported in our financial statements for the period ending April 30, 2003. The foregoing discussion of these subsequent events is included here to afford more current information concerning our financial status and business prospects than would otherwise be contained within the report for the quarter ended January 31, 2003. Liquidity and Capital Resources In our Report for the period ending October 31, 2002, we stated that we were seeking approximately $2.2 million in additional capital for our plans for early 2003. Despite the difficult capital markets, which severely hindered our operations throughout 2000 and 2001, we were able to secure approximately $800,000 in additional equity capital during the period July 31, 2002-January 31, 2003. Subsequent to January 31, 2003, we have received approximately $750,000 in additional equity capital. As previously noted, we were able to convert approximately $295,000 in notes payable and $90,000 in accounts payable in restricted stock. The additional capital we have received has enabled us to fund current operations, pay for additional production runs, and engage in an aggressive marketing program. We believe that an additional $2,000,000 in capital over the next six months would be desirable to support additional production runs, marketing and new product development. Our preliminary goal is 14 to achieve sustainable current sales sufficient to support overhead, and to seek additional capital thereafter by factoring or through a line of credit to support growth. We have not yet secured this capital, but management has been reviewing various alternatives to effect these capital objectives. The capital markets remain difficult due to global uncertainties and weak short-term economic outlook. Our success in achieving sustainable production and sales and in the development of compelling new products, together with improvement in our current position and the overall market situation, will determine the extent we will be able to continue acquiring additional capital, and the dilution this may entail. Assuming increased revenue driven by higher demand and additional product available for sale, we expect, as a result of our efforts to strengthen our current position, to be able to present a better balance sheet when seeking receivables or inventory support financing. Results of Operations As we have noted in other Reports, we had planned in early 2001 to engage in a substantial sales program based on the inventory financing agreement we effected with our contract manufacturer/packager in March 2001. The disputes that arose over the manufacturer's performance under that agreement, and the resulting uncertainty in available inventory caused us to "bank" our sales to conserve the inventory we had on hand. Later in that year, we entered into a "pay as you go" arrangement that remains in effect currently. Due to the tight capital markets in the second half of 2001 and thereafter, we severely curtailed operations until additional funding could be secured. We also targeted a different marketing model, the natural foods segment, for which we were eligible due to our all-natural lines. We believed that this market venue would be more receptive and would require less capital for marketing and thereby provide higher profit margins. Our results for the current period and earlier periods reflect static losses and low sales while these new models are being effected. Recently scheduled production runs are the most significant in almost eighteen months. We are in the process of securing sales of this production. Our assets decreased in the current period, primarily due to depreciation and amortization. Relative to the same period in 2002, total assets decreased approximately $200,000, of which approximately $130,000 was in accounts receivable. We have almost no long-term debt. Our current liabilities increased approximately $300,000 during the period, and payables increased slightly; subsequent to the period-end, approximately $280,000 of our notes and $90,000 of our payables was converted to equity. If these conversions are taken into account, our current position as adjusted for January 31 would be about $100,000 less than at the beginning of the period, and slightly less than our current position as of January 31, 2001. 15 We had minimal sales during the period ended January 31, 2003; however, as a result of the sizable capital infusions, we anticipate additional production runs to support increasing sales. Expenses have continued however, and our deficit increased approximately $1.1 million during the period. Our accumulated deficit as of January 31, 2003 was $(8,879,626), compared to $(7,731,176) as of July 31, 2002 and $(5,204,837) as of January 31, 2002. Although we maintained modest payroll costs, we incurred a substantial increase for promotional expenses, our most significant cost item during the quarter. Given the nature of the beverage industry and our place in that industry as a "new" player, we expect promotional costs to continue to be a significant factor in solidifying our corporate identity in the industry and stimulating product sales. PART II - OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS There are no substantial legal proceedings against the Company, and the Company is unaware of any such meaningful proceedings contemplated against it. The Company has had, and anticipates in the future that it will have, conflicts as regards certain Accounts Payable for services invoiced but not adequately performed. 16 ITEM 2. CHANGE IN SECURITIES There were several exchanges of securities during the period for pre-existing debt that did not entail any new consideration. Please see the financial statements for details. During the period, a new class of shares, "J" Preferred Shares (See item 5) were subscribed to for a consideration of $500,000 for 125 of said shares. The securities were issued in reliance to the exemption provided under Regulation D, Rule 506 for accredited investors. ITEM 3 DEFAULTS ON SENIOR SECURITIES NA ITEM 4 SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITIES HOLDERS None ITEM 5 OTHER INFORMATION 5.1. As previously noted in our Report filed for the Quarter ended October 31, 2002, after the end of said period, the Company effected the filing of a new Series I Preferred Stock. The new Series I was offered in exchange for all Series A and F Shares at a rate of 1.5 Series I shares for each Series A Share, and 1.5 Series I Shares for each 10 Series F Shares. The Series I Shares eliminate the anti-dilution provisions of Series A Shares ( Series A shares anti-dilution provisions caused their conversion rate to increase from 1000/1 to 10,000/1 from inception in 1998 based on the pre-combination conversion rate), and further reduce the preference to $80/Share from $300/Share for Series A, and $100/Share in Series F. The conversion rate is set at 10,000 to one to common; however a conversion cap of 4.95% is established until December 2003 or in the event of a sale or similar corporate event (extendable by agreement), total holdings including beneficial holdings at any one time; and the voting rights of the new Series is only to the extent they may be converted at any time. A provision for a conversion adjustment is provided in the event that the market for the Company's common stock drops below $.30/share for a period immediately prior to a conversion request, with the adjustment eliminated if a later request is received after the $.30 thresh hold is reached. The upward share adjustment is made proportionally to the decrease below $.30/share. It has been proposed to offer in exchange for no additional consideration approximately 350 I Shares for approximately 700 shares of a new class of preferred shares, tentatively "K" preferred, which would eliminate the $.30/adjustment, eliminate all voting rights and lower the preference. Exact terms have not negotiated and are expected to be completed after the filing of this Report. Series G Preferred (issued in May, 2002) has varying conversion rates depending upon market performance and other factors, and voting rights vary accordingly. In addition, in the event that the Company issues either common stock or instruments convertible into common stock in a transaction valued at over $200,000 where the effective price of common stock for the consideration given is less than $.40/share, the conversion rate of Series G preferred is adjusted 17 upward accordingly ($.40/share post-combination was the approximate market price of common underlying the Series G when issued). The recent Series I, J, and K share issuance would trigger this adjustment; however, a valuation has not been placed on these transactions for these purposes as yet by the Board of Directors. No Series G shares have been converted, and there have been no shareholder actions since the consent actions in June, 2002 (Please see the two Information Statements sent to shareholders and filed with the SEC in June 2002 for more information). Series J shares were authorized during the period, but the Designation of Rights and issuance thereof had not occurred by Quarter-end. Please see Note 3 to the financials for a discussion of the terms thereof. 99.
