Supplemental Disclosure of Non-Cash Investing and Financing Activities: The Company acquired through its subsidiary, Wynd Communications Corp., approximately 3,229 subscribers from Boundless Depot LLC. The purchase price was approximately $418 (of which $345 has been paid as of September 30, 2003 and $73 is included in accrued expenses). The accompanying notes are an integral part of these financial statements. -4- GOAMERICA, INC. NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (In thousands, except share and per share data) Note 1 - Basis of Presentation: The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X and include the results of GoAmerica, Inc. (the "Company") and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures required in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted. In the opinion of the Company's management, the accompanying unaudited financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments except as otherwise disclosed herein) that the Company considers necessary for the fair presentation of its financial position as of September 30, 2003 and the results of its operations for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2003 and 2002. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002. The Company has formed strategic relationships with wireless carriers, software providers, and hardware manufacturers who provide mobile computer users and deaf and hard of hearing consumers with wireless communications services and devices that complement the Company's products and services. The Company also distributes wireless communication devices, principally to customers of its wireless services, and earns commissions from the procurement of subscribers on behalf of various wireless network providers and EarthLink, Inc. ("EarthLink"). The Company is highly dependent on EarthLink for billing and collections, customer support and technical support. The Company also receives monthly subscriber revenue from its deaf and hard of hearing customers. Additionally, the Company is highly dependent on EarthLink and other third parties for wireless communication devices and wireless network connectivity. The Company operates in a highly competitive environment subject to rapid technological change and emergence of new technology. Although management believes that the Company's services are transferable to emerging technologies, rapid changes in technology could have an adverse financial impact on the Company. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. However, the Company has incurred significant operating losses since its inception and, as of September 30, 2003, has an accumulated deficit of $263,073. As of September 30, 2003, the Company had $842 in cash and cash equivalents ($600 at October 31, 2003). Management's 2003 operating plan includes further reductions in employee-related expenses as well as additional reductions in sales and marketing expenditures from levels incurred during 2002. During the nine months ended September 30, 2003, the Company retained an outside advisor to assist it in analyzing various steps that it may take to enhance its liquidity. Such steps may include the sale or other disposition of certain of the Company's assets, including its Go.Web technology (as discussed in the Company's June 30, 2003 Form 8-K filing), and the redeployment of the net proceeds in aspects of its business that the Company believes are well positioned for revenue generation and growth. Subsequently, the Company suspended its active attempts to sell its assets and has retained a separate outside advisor to explore equity placements that would enable the Company to continue its operations. Additionally, management is seeking to renegotiate certain of the Company's long term lease obligations and other vendor liabilities. The Company is currently in default on certain of these obligations and liabilities. In the event that management is unable to achieve its plans, additional reductions in operations may be necessary. There can be no assurance that the Company will achieve its 2003 operating plan, enter into one or more agreements to enhance liquidity or successfully renegotiate its long term lease obligations and other vendor liabilities. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this going concern uncertainty. Although the Company continues to reduce its cash burn, there can be no assurance that the Company will not elect to seek or be forced into bankruptcy protection. Results for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the entire year. During the third quarter of 2003, the Company renegotiated certain contractual obligations. As a result, the Company recorded a $372 reduction of accruals for certain sales and marketing costs recorded in prior periods. Additionally, during the second quarter of 2003, the Company renegotiated certain contractual obligations. As a result, the Company recorded a $763 reduction of accruals for certain subscriber-related costs recorded in prior periods. -5- Note 2 - Significant Accounting Policies: Recent Accounting Pronouncements In June 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, "FASB", issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards, "SFAS", No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities". SFAS 146 requires recording costs associated with exit or disposal activities at their fair values when a liability has been incurred. Under previous guidance, certain exit costs were accrued upon management's commitment to an exit plan, which is generally before an actual liability has been incurred. Adoption of SFAS 146 is required with the beginning of fiscal year 2003. The adoption of this statement did not have a significant impact on the Company's results of operations. In November 2002, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation, "FIN", No. 45, "Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others". FIN No. 45 addresses the disclosures to be made by a guarantor in its interim and annual financial statements about its obligations under certain guarantees that is has issued. Under FIN No. 45, recognition and initial measurement provisions are applicable on a prospective basis to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002, irrespective of the guarantor's fiscal year end. The adoption of FIN No. 45 did not have a significant impact on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations. In January 2003, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation FIN No. 46, "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities". FIN No. 46 clarifies the application of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51, "Consolidated Financial Statements," to certain entities in which equity investors do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties. FIN 46 applies immediately to variable interest entities (VIE's) created after January 31, 2003, and to VIE's in which an enterprise obtains an interest after that date. It applies in the first fiscal year or interim period after December 15, 2003, to VIE's in which an enterprise holds a variable interest that it acquired before February 1, 2003. FIN 46 applies to public enterprises as of the beginning of the applicable interim or annual period. The adoption of FIN 46 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position, liquidity, or results of operations. In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, "Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liability and Equity". SFAS No. 150 establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liability and equity. It also requires that an issuer classify a financial instrument that is within its scope as a liability (or an asset in some circumstances). Many of those instruments were previously classified as equity. SFAS No. 150 is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 15, 2003, and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003, except for mandatorily redeemable financial instruments of nonpublic entities. It is to be implemented by reporting a cumulative effect of a change in an accounting principal of financial instruments created before the issuance date of the Statement and still existing at the beginning of the interim period of adoption. Restatement is not permitted. The adoption of SFAS No. 150 did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations. -6- Note 3 - Earnings Per Share: The Company computes net loss per share under the provisions of SFAS No. 128, "Earnings per Share", and Staff Accounting Bulletin, "SAB", No. 98. Under the provisions of SFAS 128 and SAB 98, basic and diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss for the period by the weighted-average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding during the period. The calculation of diluted net loss per share excludes potential common shares if the effect is anti-dilutive. Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing loss by the weighted-average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding during the period. The weighted-average number of shares utilized in arriving at basic earnings per share reflects an adjustment to exclude 26,999 common shares for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2002 for outstanding shares held in escrow as a result of the Company's acquisition during 2001. Diluted earnings per share is determined in the same manner as basic earnings per share except that the number of shares does not include the adjustment for escrowed shares and is increased assuming exercise of dilutive stock options and warrants using the treasury stock method. As the Company had a net loss, the impact of the assumed exercise of the stock options, warrants and the assumed preferred stock conversion is anti-dilutive and as such, these amounts (except for warrants issued for nominal consideration) have been excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share. Note 4 - Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets: During the second quarter of 2003, the Company identified indicators of impairment, including recent changes in the Company's 2003 operating and cash flow forecasts, and changes in its strategic plans for certain of its acquired businesses, which required that the Company evaluate the appropriateness of the carrying value of its long-lived assets, principally goodwill recorded upon the 2001 acquisition of OutBack Resource Group, Inc. ("Outback"). A write-down of the entire goodwill related to the acquisition of Outback of $193 was recorded during the second quarter of 2003, reflecting the amount by which the carrying amount of the respective reporting unit exceeded its respective fair values as determined utilizing estimates of future discounted cash flows. The following table summarizes other intangibles subject to amortization at the dates indicated:
September 30, 2003 December 31, 2002 Gross Gross Carrying Accumulated Carrying Accumulated Amount Amortization Net Amount Amortization Net --------------------------------------- --------------------------------------- Trade Names $ 4,572 $ (3,927) $ 645 $ 4,572 $ (3,651) $ 921 Technology 3,017 (2,879) 138 3,017 (2,741) 276 Customer Lists 2,258 (2,123) 135 2,258 (1,988) 270 Other 418 (244) 174 -- -- -- Patents 1,000 (1,000) -- 1,000 (1,000) -- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- $ 11,265 $(10,173) $ 1,092 $ 10,847 $ (9,380) $ 1,467 =================================================================================
-7- Amortization expense for other intangibles totaled $242 and $433 for the three months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively, and $793 and $1,299 for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Aggregate amortization expense for intangible assets is estimated to be: Three Months Ending December 31, 2003 $285 Year Ending December 31, 2004 624 2005 183 Note 5 - Stock-based Compensation The Company accounts for employee stock-based compensation in accordance with Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees", using an intrinsic value approach to measure compensation expense, if any. Under this method, compensation expense is recorded on the date of the grant only if the current market price of the underlying stock exceeds the exercise price. Options issued to non-employees are accounted for in accordance with SFAS 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", and Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") Issue No. 96-18, "Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods and Services", using a fair value approach. SFAS No. 123 established accounting and disclosure requirements using a fair value-basis method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation plans. As allowed by SFAS No. 123, the Company has elected to continue to apply the intrinsic value-based method of accounting described above, and has adopted the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123. Had the Company elected to recognize compensation cost based on the fair value of the stock options at the date of grant under SFAS 123, such costs would have been recognized ratably over the vesting period of the underlying instruments and the Company's net loss and net loss per common share would have increased to the pro forma amounts indicated in the table below.

The pro forma results above are not intended to be indicative of or a projection of future results. -8- Note 6 - Strategic Alliance with EarthLink, Inc.: The Company formed a comprehensive strategic alliance with EarthLink by entering into a series of agreements pursuant to which, among other things, EarthLink purchased all of the Company's cellular digital packet data (CDPD) subscribers as well as certain of the Company's Cingular and Motient network subscribers. As a result of this alliance, the Company recorded a gain on the sale of subscribers of $1,756 during the nine months ended September 30, 2003. Additionally, the Company entered into a sublease agreement for a portion of the Company's principal offices no longer utilized as a result of the Company's strategic alliance with Earthlink. Accordingly, the Company recorded an accrued loss on sublease of $611 during the second quarter of 2003, of which $519 is included in accrued expenses and other long term liabilities as of September 30, 2003. Additionally, as part of the strategic alliance, the Company and EarthLink entered into an agreement to collaborate on developing new applications and extensions of existing technology, including EarthLink-branded wireless data services, as well as new technologies. As a result of this agreement, the Company recorded approximately $96 and $270 of other revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2003, respectively. Note 7 - Impairment of Long Lived Assets: During the second quarter of 2003, the Company evaluated the carrying value of certain software and equipment, which were idled upon the most recent transition of certain activities to EarthLink. As a result of this evaluation, the Company wrote off specific assets with a carrying value of $1,052. This charge was included in Impairment of long-lived assets in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2003. Note 8 - Acquisition of Subscribers: On February 8, 2003, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire through its subsidiary, Wynd Communications Corp. ("Wynd"), approximately 3,229 subscribers from Boundless Depot LLC ("Boundless") . The purchase price of approximately $418 has been adjusted for subscriber churn (of which $73 is included in accrued expenses). As of September 30, 2003, the active acquired subscribers fell below 65% of the total subscribers transferred and, according to the agreement, all further cash payments have ceased pending further reconciliation. The total purchase price will be amortized as an other intangible asset on a straight line basis over a period of 12 months. Note 9 - Contingencies: On July 2, 2003, Eastern Computer Exchange, Inc. ("Eastern Computer") filed suit against the Company in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey with respect to the Company's non-performance of certain payment obligations pursuant to two equipment leases (the "Leases"). Eastern Computer demanded and has received from the Company all of the equipment covered by the Leases. Eastern Computer also seeks monetary amounts related to obligations under leases ranging from approximately $200,000 to approximately $800,000. The parties are currently in settlement discussions, however, the Company cannot predict the outcome of this matter at this time. -9- Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. General GoAmerica, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("We," "Us" or the "Company"), develops and distributes wireless data technology, applications and software that address the productivity and communications needs of enterprise customers, and individuals, with one of our business units concentrating on the deaf, hard of hearing or speech impaired community. In the consumer market, we primarily offer wireless data solutions that are designed for people who are deaf, hard of hearing or speech impaired through our wholly owned subsidiary, Wynd Communications Corporation, ("Wynd"). In the enterprise market, our solutions are primarily based on our proprietary software technology called Go.Web(TM). By utilizing Go.Web, corporations can improve the productivity of employees by enabling secure wireless access to corporate data on many wireless computing devices and over many wireless data networks. Our Go.Web technology can be hosted and supported in a secure network operations center maintained by GoAmerica or its third party outsourcing provider or installed behind an enterprise's network security system, commonly know as the firewall. Customers who opt to install the software do so by purchasing our proprietary Go.Web Enterprise Server technology, formally known as Go.Web OnPrem(TM). Historically, we have derived our revenue primarily from the sale of basic and value-added wireless data services and the sale of related mobile devices to our subscribers. During March 1997, we commenced offering our services to individuals and businesses. Since our inception, we have invested significant capital to build our wireless network operations and e-commerce system as well as our billing system. We have invested additional capital in the development of our software applications Go.Web and Mobile Office(R), as well as other software applications. We have provided mobile devices made by third parties to our customers at prices below our costs for such devices. We have incurred operating losses since our inception and expect to continue to incur operating losses for at least the next several quarters. We will need to significantly improve our overall gross margins and further reduce our selling, general and administrative expenses to become profitable and sustain profitability on a quarterly or annual basis. If we are able to attract the necessary capital, we may seek to grow Wynd's business through additional strategic alliances or new service offerings. As a result of our strategic alliance with EarthLink, Inc., or EarthLink, we anticipate overall revenue to continue to decline while gross margins should continue to increase and selling, marketing and administrative expenses should decline. We may continue to generate revenues from EarthLink from three primary sources: (i) recurring service revenue; (ii) software revenue; and (iii) activation bounties. We have substantially reduced our costs of subscriber airtime and operating costs as a result of our strategic alliance with EarthLink. Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations discusses our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates and judgments, including those related to revenue recognition, allowance for doubtful accounts, inventory valuation and recoverability of our intangible assets. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Management believes the following critical accounting policies, among others, affect its more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of its condensed consolidated financial statements. Historically, we have derived our revenue primarily from the sale of basic and value-added wireless data services and the sale of related mobile devices. Subscriber revenue consists primarily of monthly charges for access and usage and is recognized as the services are provided. We also charged our CDPD subscribers a per kilobyte fee for using a mobile device outside of a designated geographical area, or roaming; such fees are recognized as revenue when collected. We also generally charged a non-refundable activation fee upon initial subscription. To the extent such fees exceed the related costs, they are deferred and recognized ratably over the life of the related service contracts, which are generally either six months, one year or two year agreements. Equipment revenue is recognized upon shipment to the end user. We also provide mobile devices to our customers at prices below our costs as incentives for customers to enter into service agreements. Such incentives are recorded as a reduction to subscriber and equipment revenue at the time of sale, allocated based upon the relative fair value of the equipment and services provided. We estimate the collectibility of our trade receivables. A considerable amount of judgment is required in assessing the ultimate realization of these receivables including analysis of historical collection rates and the current credit-worthiness of significant customers. Significant changes in required reserves have been recorded in recent periods and may occur in the future due to current market conditions. We write down inventory for estimated excess or obsolete inventory equal to the difference between the cost of inventory and the estimated market value based upon assumptions about future demand and market conditions. If actual market conditions are less favorable than those projected by management, additional inventory write-downs may be required. In assessing the -10- recoverability of our goodwill, other intangibles and other long lived assets, we must make assumptions regarding estimated future cash flows. If such assumptions change in the future, we may be required to record impairment charges for these assets not previously recorded. During the nine months ended September 30, 2003, we evaluated the carrying value of certain software and equipment which were idled upon our most recent transition of certain activities to EarthLink and have recorded an adjustment to the carrying value of specific assets. Results of Operations Three months ended September 30, 2003 Compared to Three months ended September 30, 2002 Subscriber revenue. Subscriber revenue decreased 65%, to $2.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2003 from $7.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2002. This decrease was primarily due to the sale of our CDPD subscribers, as well as a portion of our Cingular and Motient network subscribers, to EarthLink during the fourth quarter 2002. Our subscriber base decreased to 81,371 subscribers at September 30, 2003 from 103,541 subscribers at September 30, 2002. Our average monthly revenue per user, or ARPU, decreased to $10.23 for the three months ended September 30, 2003 from $23.22 for the three months ended September 30, 2002. The decline in ARPU was due to the sale of full-service offering subscribers referenced above. We expect revenue to increase slightly and ARPU to remain constant from our continued leveraging of strategic agreements for the sale of our Go.Web value-added services and higher ARPU full-service offerings through our subsidiary, Wynd Communications Corporation, or Wynd. Equipment revenue. Equipment revenue decreased to $266,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2003 from $1.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2002. This decrease was primarily due to lower sales of mobile devices as a result of our strategic alliance with EarthLink. We anticipate that equipment revenue will remain reasonably constant as we continue to sell mobile devices through Wynd. Other revenue. Other revenue, which consists primarily of revenue derived from consulting services, increased to $303,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2003 from $94,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2002. This increase was primarily due to our strategic alliance with EarthLink in which we collaborate on developing new applications and extensions of existing technology, including EarthLink-branded wireless data services, as well as new technologies. We anticipate consulting services to remain reasonably constant due to our strategic alliance with Earthlink. Cost of subscriber airtime. Cost of subscriber airtime decreased 77%, to $1.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2003 from $4.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2002. This decrease was primarily due to the sale of our CDPD subscribers, as well as a portion of our Cingular and Motient network subscribers, to EarthLink during the fourth quarter of 2002. We expect the number of subscribers and related use of our services to increase slightly as a result of our continued leveraging of strategic agreements for the sale of our Go.Web value-added services and higher ARPU full-service offerings through Wynd Cost of network operations. Cost of network operations decreased to $365,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2003 from $791,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2002. We expect cost of network operations to further decline as a result of decreased salaries and benefits for personnel performing network operations activities. Cost of equipment revenue. Cost of equipment revenue decreased 95%, to $140,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2003 from $2.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2002. This decrease was primarily due to lower sales of mobile devices as a result of our strategic alliance with EarthLink. We anticipate that the cost of equipment revenue will remain constant as we continue to sell mobile devices through Wynd. Sales and marketing. Sales and marketing expenses decreased 108%, to a net gain of $169,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2003 from $2.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2002. This decrease primarily was due to decreased advertising costs paid to third parties as well as decreased salaries and benefits for personnel performing sales and marketing activities. Additionally, during the three months ended September 30, 2003, we recorded a $372,000 one-time reduction of accruals for certain sales and marketing expenses recorded in prior periods. We expect sales and marketing expenses to be limited as a result of leveraging our strategic alliance with EarthLink and other partners. -11- General and administrative. General and administrative expenses decreased 73%, to $1.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2003 from $6.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2002. This decrease primarily was due to decreased salaries and benefits for personnel performing business development and general corporate activities and decreased infrastructure buildout. We expect general and administrative expenses to remain reasonably constant as a result of our outsourcing of billing, customer support and network services to EarthLink. Research and development. Research and development expense decreased to $220,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2003 from $963,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2002. This decrease primarily was due to decreased salaries and benefits for personnel performing research and development activities. We expect research and development expenses to remain reasonably constant as we develop applications for our deaf and hard of hearing customers. Amortization of goodwill and other intangibles. Amortization of other intangibles decreased for the three months ended September 30, 2003 to $242,000 from $433,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2002. This decrease primarily was due to patents being fully amortized. We expect amortization of other intangibles to remain constant. Gain on sale of subscribers. Gain on sale of subscribers resulted from our comprehensive strategic alliance whereby EarthLink purchased all of the Company's cellular digital packet data (CDPD) subscribers as well as certain of the Company's Cingular and Motient network subscribers. As a result of this agreement, we recorded a gain on the sale of subscribers of $11,000 during the three months ended September 30, 2003. Nine months ended September 30, 2003 Compared to Nine months ended September 30, 2002 Subscriber revenue. Subscriber revenue decreased 66%, to $8.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 from $23.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. This decrease was primarily due to the sale of our CDPD subscribers, as well as a portion of our Cingular and Motient network subscribers, to EarthLink during the fourth quarter 2002. Our subscriber base decreased to 81,371 subscribers at September 30, 2003 from 103,541 subscribers at September 30, 2002. Our ARPU decreased to $10.29 for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 from $23.75 for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. The decline in ARPU was due to the sale of full-service offering subscribers referenced above. Equipment revenue. Equipment revenue decreased to $917,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 from $5.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. This decrease was primarily due to lower sales of mobile devices as a result of our strategic alliance with EarthLink. Other revenue. Other revenue, which consists primarily of revenue derived from consulting services, increased to $643,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 from $202,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. This increase was primarily due to our recent strategic alliance with EarthLink in which we will collaborate on developing new applications and extensions of existing technology, including EarthLink-branded wireless data services, as well as new technologies. Cost of subscriber airtime. Cost of subscriber airtime decreased 86%, to $2.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 from $16.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. This decrease was primarily due to the sale of our CDPD subscribers, as well as a portion of our Cingular and Motient network subscribers, to EarthLink during the fourth quarter of 2002. Additionally, during the nine months ended September 30, 2003, we recorded a $763,000 one-time reduction of accruals for certain subscriber-related costs recorded in prior periods. Cost of network operations. Cost of network operations decreased 31% to $1.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 from $2.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. Cost of equipment revenue. Cost of equipment revenue decreased 85%, to $1.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 from $6.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. This decrease primarily was due to lower sales of mobile devices and was partially offset by a non-cash inventory charge of $331,000 recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2003 to value a portion of our remaining inventory at the lower of cost or market. -12- Sales and marketing. Sales and marketing expenses decreased 87%, to $868,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 from $6.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. This decrease primarily was due to decreased advertising costs paid to third parties as well as decreased salaries and benefits for personnel performing sales and marketing activities. Additionally, during the three months ended September 30, 2003, we recorded a $372,000 one-time reduction of accruals for certain sales and marketing expenses recorded in prior periods. General and administrative. General and administrative expenses decreased 67%, to $7.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 from $22.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. This decrease primarily was due to decreased salaries and benefits for personnel performing business development and general corporate activities and decreased infrastructure buildout. Research and development. Research and development expense decreased 61%, to $1.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 from $2.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. This decrease primarily was due to decreased salaries and benefits for personnel performing research and development activities. Amortization of goodwill and other intangibles. Amortization of other intangibles decreased for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 to $793,000 from $1.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. This decrease primarily was due to patents being fully amortized. Impairment of long-lived assets. During the nine months ended September 30, 2003, we identified certain indicators of impairment including recent changes in the Company's 2003 operating and cash flow forecasts, and changes in our strategic plans for certain of our acquired businesses which required that we evaluate the appropriateness of the carrying value of our long-lived assets, principally goodwill recorded upon the acquisition of OutBack Resource Group, Inc., ("Outback"). A write-down of goodwill totaling $193,000 was recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2003, reflecting the amount by which the carrying amount of the respective reporting unit exceeded its respective fair value. In addition, as a result of our recent strategic alliance with EarthLink, we evaluated the carrying value of certain software and equipment which were idled upon our most recent transition of certain activities to EarthLink. As a result of this evaluation, during the nine months ended September 30, 2003, we wrote-off specific assets with a carrying value of $1.1 million. Gain on sale of subscribers. Gain on sale of subscribers resulted from our comprehensive strategic alliance whereby EarthLink purchased all of the Company's cellular digital packet data (CDPD) subscribers as well as certain of the Company's Cingular and Motient network subscribers. As a result of this agreement, we recorded a gain on the sale of subscribers of $1.8 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2003. Liquidity and Capital Resources Since our inception, we financed our operations through private placements of our equity securities and our redeemable convertible preferred stock, which resulted in aggregate net proceeds of approximately $18.4 million through December 31, 1999. During the first quarter of 2000, we issued and sold 648,057 shares of Series B Preferred Stock for net proceeds of approximately $24.6 million. In April 2000, we consummated our initial public offering of 10,000,000 shares of our common stock at a price to the public of $16.00 per share, all of which were issued and sold for net proceeds of $146.2 million. As of September 30, 2003, we had $842,000 in cash and cash equivalents and a working capital deficit of $2.7 million. -13- We have incurred significant operating losses since our inception and as of September 30, 2003 have an accumulated deficit of $263.1 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2003, we incurred a net loss of $6.8 million and used $6.3 million of cash to fund operating activities. As of September 30, 2003 we had $842,000 in cash and cash equivalents ($600,000 at October 31, 2003). During 2002 and into 2003, we took steps to reduce our annual payroll by more than 40% and took further actions to reduce sales and marketing expenses. In addition, on September 25, 2002, we formed a comprehensive strategic alliance with EarthLink by entering into a series of agreements. Pursuant to these agreements, we may generate revenues from three primary sources: (i) recurring service revenue; (ii) software revenue; and (iii) activation bounties. The EarthLink agreements also enable us to reduce our costs of subscriber airtime. Our 2003 operating plan includes further reductions in headcount as well as additional reductions in sales and marketing expenditures from levels incurred during 2002, all of which have been substantially achieved to date. We currently anticipate that our available cash resources will be sufficient to fund our operating needs only through January 2004. For us to remain in business beyond such four month period, we believe we will require additional financing. At this time, we do not have any bank credit facility or other working capital credit line under which we may borrow funds for working capital or other general corporate purposes. We may not be able to raise funds on terms favorable to us, or at all. As a result of these and related considerations, our independent auditors issued a going concern opinion in connection with our 2002 financial statements. Over the past twelve months, our available cash has decreased substantially. This reduction in liquidity creates significant constraints on the manner in which our business can operate. We have retained an outside advisor to assist us in analyzing various steps that we may take to enhance our liquidity. We considered, and may ultimately affect, the sale or other disposition of certain of our assets, including our Go.Web technology, and the redeployment of the net proceeds in aspects of our business which we believe are well positioned for revenue generation and growth. We cannot assure you as to when or whether such steps will be taken and, if taken, whether such steps will be successful. We recently suspended active attempts to sell our assets and retained a separate outside advisor to explore equity placements that would enable us to continue our operations. At the same time, we are seeking to renegotiate certain of our long term lease obligations and other vendor liabilities. We currently are default on certain of these obligations and liabilities. We cannot assure you that we will achieve our 2003 operating plan, enter into one or more agreements to enhance liquidity or successfully renegotiate our long term lease obligations and other vendor liabilities. Although we have been able to reduce our cash burn, we may find it necessary to elect to seek bankruptcy protection or we may be forced into involuntary bankruptcy proceedings if we are unsuccessful in renegotiating our lease and other liabilities or if we are unsuccessful in raising capital. We cannot assure you that we will be able to effect such renegotiations or raise new capital on satisfactory terms, or at all. Net cash used in operating activities decreased to $6.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 from $24.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. This decrease primarily was due to decreased losses from operations. We generated $2.7 million in cash in investing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2003 as compared to using $349,000 in cash for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. Cash provided by investing activities primarily resulted from the gain on sale of subscribers as well as the release of restricted cash for draw downs on letters of credit. We generated $47,000 in cash in financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2003 as compared to using $440,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. Cash provided by financing activities primarily resulted from proceeds from the sale of stock through option exercises. As of September 30, 2003, our principal commitments consisted of obligations outstanding under operating leases. As of September 30, 2003, future minimum payments for non-cancelable operating leases having terms in excess of one year amounted to $8.9 million, of which approximately $2.0 million is payable in the next twelve months. -14- The following table summarizes GoAmerica's contractual obligations at September 30, 2003, and the effect such obligations are expected to have on its liquidity and cash flow in future periods.

Forward Looking Statements Statements contained in this Form 10-Q that are not based on historical fact are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as "may," "will," "expect," "estimate," "anticipate," "continue," or similar terms, variations of such terms or the negative of those terms. Such forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to: (i) our limited operating history; (ii) our reduced capital resources and need for additional liquidity; (iii) our ability to fund our operating needs through available cash reserves; (iv) our ability to raise additional equity and renegotiate liabilities before our cash resources are fully depleted; (v) the impact on our business from our receiving a "going concern" opinion from our independent auditors; (vi) our ability to successfully implement our strategic alliance with EarthLink; (vii) our dependence on EarthLink to provide billing, customer and technical support to our subscribers; (viii) our ability to respond to the rapid technological change of the wireless data industry and offer new services; (ix) our dependence on wireless carrier networks; (x) our ability to respond to increased competition in the wireless data industry; (xi) our ability to integrate acquired businesses and technologies; (xii) our ability to leverage strategic alliances to generate revenue growth; (xiii) our ability to increase or maintain gross margins, profitability, liquidity and capital resources; and (xiv) our ability to manage our remaining operations; and (xv) difficulties inherent in predicting the outcome of regulatory processes. As a result of such risks and others expressed from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, our actual results could differ materially from the results discussed in or implied by the forward-looking statements contained herein. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In June 2002, FASB issued SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities". SFAS 146 requires recording costs associated with exit or disposal activities at their fair values when a liability has been incurred. Under previous guidance, certain exit costs were accrued upon management's commitment to an exit plan, which is generally before an actual liability has been incurred. Adoption of SFAS 146 is required with the beginning of fiscal year 2003. The adoption of this statement did not have a significant impact on the Company's results of operations. In November 2002, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation, "FIN," No. 45, "Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others." FIN No. 45 addresses the disclosures to be made by a guarantor in its interim and annual financial statements about its obligations under certain guarantees that is has issued. Under FIN No. 45 recognition and initial measurement provisions are applicable on a prospective basis to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002, irrespective of the guarantor's fiscal year end. The adoption of FIN No. 45 did not have a significant impact on our consolidated financial position or results of operations. -15- In January 2003, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation "FIN" No. 46, "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities". FIN 46 clarifies the application of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51, "Consolidated Financial Statements", to certain entities in which equity investors do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties. FIN 46 applies immediately to variable interest entities (VIE's) created after January 31, 2003, and to VIE's in which an enterprise obtains an interest after that date. It applies in the first fiscal year or interim period after December 15, 2003, to VIE's in which an enterprise holds a variable interest that it acquired before February 1, 2003. FIN 46 applies to public enterprises as of the beginning of the applicable interim or annual period. The adoption of FIN 46 is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, liquidity, or results of operations. In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, "Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liability and Equity". SFAS No. 150 establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liability and equity. It also requires that an issuer classify a financial instrument that is within its scope as a liability (or an asset in some circumstances). Many of those instruments were previously classified as equity. SFAS No. 150 is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 15, 2003, and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003, except for mandatorily redeemable financial instruments of nonpublic entities. It is to be implemented by reporting a cumulative effect of a change in an accounting principal of financial instruments created before the issuance date of the Statement and still existing at the beginning of the interim period of adoption. Restatement is not permitted. The adoption of SFAS No. 150 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position or results of operations. Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk We believe that we have limited exposure to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates. At September 30, 2003, all of our available excess funds are cash or cash equivalents. The value of our cash and cash equivalents is not materially affected by changes in interest rates. A hypothetical change in interest rates of 1.0% would result in an annual change in net loss of approximately $8,000 based on cash and cash equivalent balances at September 30, 2003. We currently hold no derivative instruments and do not earn foreign-source income. Item 4. Controls and Procedures Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. Disclosure controls and procedures. As of the end of the Company's most recently completed fiscal quarter (the registrant's fourth fiscal quarter in the case of an annual report) covered by this report, the Company carried out an evaluation, with the participation of the Company's management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Vice President, Controller, of the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Securities Exchange Act Rule 13a-15. Based upon that evaluation, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Vice President, Controller, concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. Changes in internal controls over financial reporting. There have been no changes in the Company's internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the Company's last fiscal quarter to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting. -16- PART II. OTHER INFORMATION Item 1. Legal Proceedings On February 15, 2002, Eagle Truck Lines Inc. (a/k/a Air Eagle, Inc.) filed suit against GoAmerica, Inc. in the Superior Court of the State of California for the County of Los Angeles seeking payment of $590,000, plus other damages, expenses, interest and costs of suit. This action was removed to the United States District Court for the Central District of California and subsequently, pursuant to a motion brought by GoAmerica, transferred to the District of New Jersey where GoAmerica has moved to have it consolidated with the action described in the next paragraph. (This motion will be decided once a decision in the various motions to dismiss is rendered in the Flash action discussed below.) Air Eagle alleges that GoAmerica, as successor in interest to Flash Creative Management, Inc. ("Flash"), failed to perform its obligations under a consulting contract dated July 2, 1999 (the "Contract"), by and between Flash and Air Eagle. Air Eagle alleges that GoAmerica assumed the rights and liabilities under this Contract as a result of its purchase of substantially all of the assets of Flash in November 2000. On June 3, 2002, GoAmerica filed an amended answer and counterclaim, denying the allegations of the complaint and seeking payment from Air Eagle of an amount not less than $589,993.60, plus expenses, interest and costs of suit based on Air Eagle's failure to pay for services rendered by Flash and GoAmerica under the Contract. The Company intends to defend this action and pursue its counterclaim vigorously. In a separate but related matter, on July 31, 2002, GoAmerica filed suit against Flash and certain former officers and shareholders of Flash (the "Flash Defendants") in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey for violations of federal and state securities law and common law fraud in connection with the sale of the assets of Flash to GoAmerica. In October 2002, each of the Flash Defendants filed answers to GoAmerica's complaint denying all of the Company's charges, with one of the Flash Defendants adding counterclaims against the Company and certain named officers alleging, among other things, fraudulent misrepresentation, violations of state securities law and unjust enrichment in excess of $1 million. The other Flash Defendants have been granted leave to amend their answer to include substantially similar counterclaims against the Company and Company officer defendants. The Company has filed a motion to dismiss the Flash Defendants' counterclaims, and the Flash defendants have filed cross-motions for judgment on the pleadings and for summary judgment seeking dismissal of the Company's claims against them. All pending motions are briefed and have been submitted to the Court for decision. The Company intends to vigorously pursue its claims against Flash and the other named defendants in this action, and to defend the counterclaims asserted. On July 2, 2003, Eastern Computer Exchange, Inc. ("Eastern Computer") filed suit against GoAmerica in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey with respect to GoAmerica's non-performance of certain payment obligations pursuant to two equipment leases (the "Leases"). Eastern Computer demanded and has received from GoAmerica all of the equipment covered by the Leases. Eastern Computer also seeks monetary amounts related to obligations under the Leases ranging from approximately $200,000 to approximately $800,000. The parties are currently in settlement discussions, however, the Company cannot predict the outcome of this matter at this time. Item 5. Other Information On August 27, 2003, the Company received a letter from the Nasdaq Stock Market ("Nasdaq") Staff stating that the Company's Common Stock was scheduled to be delisted from the Nasdaq Smallcap Market due to the Common Stock's non-compliance with the $1 minimum bid price per share requirement as set forth in Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4310 (C) (4). The Company appealed the Nasdaq Staff Determination and on October 21, 2003, the Nasdaq Listings Qualifications Panel granted the Company additional time, until at least December 1, 2003, to regain compliance with the minimum price requirement since the Company meets all of the other listing requirements. As previously reported, the Company retained an independent contractor in August 2003 to serve as Interim Chief Financial Officer. During transitional activities, management redefined the scope of the contractor such that the general duties of a public company chief financial officer were assumed by members of the Company's accounting and finance staff and the Company's Vice President, Controller continues to serve as the Company's principal accounting officer. -17- Item 6.
