7 SEQUIAM CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) NOTE 1 -DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND ACQUISITIONS GENERAL ------- The Company was incorporated in California on September 21, 1999 as Wedge Net Experts, Inc. on or about May 1, 2002, the Company changed its name to Sequiam Corporation. It also changed its symbol from "WNXP" to "SQUM". On May 24, 2004, the Company's common stock was formally listed on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange under the symbol RSQ. From inception of its business through the date the Company acquired Smart Biometrics, Inc., its management was primarily focused on developing a portfolio of Internet and print enterprise-wide software products. In addition, we developed custom software, databases and websites for businesses. Sequiam operated as an Internet service provider ("ISP") and provided Internet access and web site hosting for our customers who require those services. The business was operated under one operating segment through our subsidiaries: Sequiam Software, Inc. and Sequiam Communications, Inc. Sequiam Software tools consist primarily of document management and Internet Remote Print ("IRP") software, more fully described below. These tools allow users to manipulate proof, manage, organize and publish and print digital content, or scan non-digital content from remote locations as well as provide secure private storage. Sequiam Communications (formerly known as Brekel Group, Inc.) operated a digital publishing business that was ceased prior to its acquisition by Sequiam. However, Sequiam acquired Brekel Group for: (a) its expertise in digital on-demand publishing and printing; (b) the innovations that it brings to our document management, IRP and print on-demand software applications; and (c) its contract and relationship with the World Olympian Association to exclusively develop, create, host, and maintain their official Internet site and manage a database, provide email and an electronic newsletter for all Olympic athletes. In the fourth quarter of 2003, management divided the Company's business into two distinct operating segments; Information Management and Safety and Security. The Information Management segment is built on the Company's custom software skills, contacts with the world sports communities and interactive web-based technologies obtained by the acquisition of WMW Communications and more recently, Telepartners, Inc. The Company's Safety and Security segment was formed upon our acquisition of the assets of a biometrics corporation, Smart Biometrics, Inc. and expanded with our acquisition of Fingerprint Detection Technologies, Inc. ("FDTI"). The Company acquired from Smart Biometrics fingerprint biometric access control systems that will be a key feature in our future product offerings. The Company acquired from FDTI a fingerprint detection system that management believes represents a new advancement in that science. The Information Management segment consists of the Company's IRP suite of software products that includes IRP and IRPlicator, more fully described below. The Company is also developing the following two new software products to sell in our Information Management segment: "Book It, Rover!" and the Extended Classroom, which are more fully described below. In the Safety and Security segment the Company has focused primarily on selling the BioVault(TM), a secure access denial device intended for personal firearms and valuables such as jewelry, stock certificates and other documents that use fingerprint recognition technology to open instead of a traditional key. The BioVault(TM) and related technology is more fully described below. The Company has an agreement with the National Rifle Association (NRA) to distribute the BioVault(TM). The NRA acts only as a sales agent and will not purchase any of our products directly. The NRA offers our BioVault(TM) in its online store and catalog. The NRA estimates that we will be able to sell approximately 50,000 units over the twelve months following the second quarter 2004. The Company has changed its strategy relative to this segment. Instead of outsourcing the manufacturing of the BioVault(TM) and related products, and selling and distributing the products itself, the Company plans to license its 8 technologies to other companies who manufacture, market, sell and distribute. In 2004 we entered into a license agreement with Security Marketing Group, LLC ("SMG") for the Q300, a redesigned version of the BioVault(TM). SMG is required to pay to us a license fee of $2,000,000 cash, paid $25,000 upon execution and delivery of the license agreement, and the balance on or before December 31, 2004. In addition to the license fee, SMG is required to pay us a monthly royalty of $20.00 for every unit sold. We also received a non-dilutive 8% interest in Security Marketing Group, LLC as part of the license agreement. The Company is also in discussions with other companies for the license of the BioVault(TM) and other applications of our biometrics devices as well as the BritePrint(TM) fingerprint detection device. DEVELOPMENT OF THE BUSINESS --------------------------- Three principal shareholders, Nicholas VandenBrekel, Mark Mroczkowski and James Rooney, formed Sequiam Software, Inc. (formerly Sequiam, Inc.) on January 23, 2001, to research, develop, produce and market a document management software product. From its inception until April 1, 2002, Sequiam Software, Inc.'s sole business activity was the development of its software product, Sequiam DMS. ACQUISITION OF BREKEL GROUP, INC. In 2002, the Company acquired 99.38% of the issued and outstanding common stock of Brekel Group, Inc. ("Brekel"). Sequiam Software, Inc. and Brekel were entities under common control. The Company acquired Brekel for its expertise in digital on-demand publishing and printing and the innovations that it brings to our document management, Internet remote print and print on-demand software applications. Sequiam also acquired Brekel for its contract with the World Olympians Association ("WOA") and its Internet and ExtraNet expertise and product development gained from that project. On November 14, 2002, management changed Brekel's name to Sequiam Communications, Inc. and again in April 2004 to Sequiam Sports, Inc. to better represent its role within the company. ACQUISITION OF THE ASSETS OF W.M.W. COMMUNICATIONS, INC. Effective November 1, 2002, the Company acquired all of the assets of W.M.W. Communication, Inc., doing business as Access Orlando. The Company has accounted for this as an acquisition of the business of W.M.W. Communications, Inc. ("WMW"). The major assets of WMW were the software products Internet Remote Print (IRP) and Internet Remote Print Duplicator ("IRPlicator"). IRP is a software product that allows computer users to print remotely to any printer via the Internet. IRP is highly complementary to Sequiam's Document Management Software, and we have integrated the two products. Like the Company, WMW was engaged in software development, website development, Internet hosting and collocation services, and is also an Internet service provider ("ISP"). Through its Internet hosting and collocation services, the Company hosts third-party web content on either its server located at its remote network operations center ("NOC"), or on the third party's server that is located at the Company's NOC. ACQUISITION OF THE ASSETS OF SMART BIOMETRICS, INC. On May 9, 2003, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of Smart Biometrics, Inc. of Sanford, Florida. The Company has accounted for this as an acquisition of the business of Smart Biometrics, Inc. Smart Biometrics, Inc. is engaged in the development of biometric technologies. The BioVault(TM) technology, which is a secure safe that utilizes patent pending technology and protocols to recognize a person's fingerprint to unlock, was the major asset of Smart Biometrics, Inc. ACQUISITION OF THE ASSETS OF TELEPARTNERS, INC. On June 1, 2003, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of Telepartners, Inc. of West Palm Beach, Florida. The Company has accounted for this as an acquisition of the business of Telepartners, Inc. Telepartners, Inc. is engaged in the development of supplemental educational products for schoolchildren in grades 9 1 through 12. The major asset acquired from Telepartners, Inc. was the Extended Classroom(TM) software, which is a supplemental, educational program consisting of a video lesson library of the very lesson concepts that are taught in our public school classrooms in the United States. Each lesson summary has been produced in high quality and digitally mastered, allowing for Internet and television broadcast distribution as well as being offered in CD and video formats. ACQUISITION OF FINGERPRINT DETECTION TECHNOLOGIES, INC. On September 11, 2003, the Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Fingerprint Detection Technologies, Inc. ("FDTI") a Florida corporation. FDTI has acquired the rights to develop and market a patented and proprietary technology for fingerprint analysis using a light emitting diode ("LED") intense headband light source. FDTI had no operating history and had not generated any revenues, so the Company accounted for the acquisition as a purchase of its assets. NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES BASIS OF PRESENTATION --------------------- The Company, under the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, has prepared the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements contain all normal recurring adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for the fair presentation of such financial statements. Certain information and disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted under such rules and regulations although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The year-end balance sheet data was derived from the audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes for the Company included in Form 10-KSB filed for the year ended December 31, 2003. Interim results of operations for the periods presented may not necessarily be indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE ------------------------- Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted loss per common share is computed giving effect to all potentially dilutive common shares. Potentially dilutive common shares may consist of incremental shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options, adjusted for the assumed repurchase of the Company's common stock, at the average market price, from the exercise proceeds and also may include incremental shares issuable in connection with convertible securities. In periods in which a net loss has been incurred, all potentially dilutive common shares are considered anti-dilutive and thus are excluded from the calculation. As of June 30 2004, the Company had 25,801,367 potentially dilutive common shares as a result of warrants and options granted and convertible debt outstanding. PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION --------------------------- The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries Sequiam Software, Inc., Sequiam Biometrics, Inc., Sequiam Education, Inc., Fingerprint Detection Technologies, Inc., and Sequiam Sports, Inc (the "Company"). All intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS -------------------------------- In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities ("Interpretation No. 46"). In general, a variable interest entity is a corporation, partnership, trust, or any other legal structure used for business purposes that either does not have equity investors with voting rights or has equity investors that do not provide sufficient financial resources for the entity to support 10 its activities. Interpretation No. 46 requires a variable interest entity to be consolidated by a company if that company is subject to a majority of the risk of loss from the variable interest entity's activities or is entitled to receive a majority of the entity's residual returns or both. We do not expect that Interpretation No. 46 will have a material effect on our results of operations or financial condition as we do not currently utilize or have interests in any variable interest entities. ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION ---------------------------------------- SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation ("FAS 123"), encourages the use of a fair-value method of accounting for stock-based awards under which the fair value of stock options is determined on the date of grant and expensed over the vesting. As allowed by FAS 123, the Company has elected to account for stock-based compensation plans under an intrinsic value method that requires compensation expense to be recorded only if, on the grant date, the current market price of the Company's common stock exceeds the exercise price the employee must pay for the stock. The Company's policy is to grant stock options at the fair market value of the underlying stock at the date of grant. The Company has adopted the disclosure-only provisions of FAS 123. Accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized for the stock option plans. There were no stock options granted during the six months ended June 30, 2004. All stock options issued prior to this year have been fully vested. As such, pro forma net loss is equal to reported net loss. NOTE 3 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES On October 1, 2002, the Company's Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and Chief Financial Officer ("CFO") entered into amended and restated employment agreements with the Company and its Subsidiaries. The amended agreements replace separate agreements with Sequiam, Inc. and Brekel Group, Inc. The agreements have an initial term of two years with automatic one-year renewals. The agreements provide for compensation in the form of minimum annual salary of $185,000 and $175,000 respectively, and allow for bonuses in cash, stock or stock options and participation in Company benefit plans. Full-time employment is a requirement of the contract. In the event that a change in control of the Company occurs without the prior approval of the then existing Board of Directors, these contracts will be deemed terminated and compensation of $5 million each is payable at termination, and $1 million annually for five years subsequent to termination will be due and payable to the CEO and CFO. For the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002 and the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, Sequiam accrued and did not pay the minimum annual salaries payable to the CEO and CFO until April 30, 2004 when salary payments to them were resumed. None of the previously accrued salary amounts have been paid to either the CEO or the CFO. The Company is involved in various claims and legal actions incidental to the normal conduct of its business. On or about October 3, 2002, General Electric Capital Corporation ("GE") filed a lawsuit against Brekel Group, Inc. ("Brekel"), in the Circuit Court of the 9th Judicial Circuit in and for Orange County, located in Orlando, Florida. GE claims that Brekel owes a deficiency balance in the amount of $93,833 for three digital copiers rented under a lease agreement. Brekel has returned possession of the copiers to GE, but Brekel disputes the claim for damages. On January 30, 2004 Brekel entered into a settlement agreement with GE by agreeing to pay $70,000 in 36 monthly installments of $1,945 without interest. On February 1, 2004 Brekel entered into a settlement agreement with Precision Partners, LTD for disputed rents on a facility formerly occupied by Brekel by agreeing to pay $80,000 in 24 monthly installments of $3,510 including interest at 5%. Brekel entered into a note payable with Xerox Corporation in November 2000 to finance equipment. Brekel also entered into a Document Services Agreement ("Agreement") with Xerox Corporation ("Xerox") on November 1, 1999 commencing April 1, 2000. During the 63-month term of the Agreement ending June 30, 2005, Xerox agreed to provide equipment and services in accordance with specified performance standards. Those standards include, among other things, a performance satisfaction guaranty by Xerox. Under the terms of that guaranty, Brekel may terminate the agreement without incurring any early termination charges. Brekel gave proper 11 notice of such termination in March 2001. On September 3, 2002 Xerox did, contrary to the contract, assert its claim for early termination charges and for monthly minimum service charges on billings made after the termination date. On June 29, 2004, Xerox Corporation filed a lawsuit in the Circuit Court in and for Pinellas County State of Florida. The claim amount in controversy is approximately $1,574,000. The Company disputes these claims and believes them to be without merit. Because this matter is in very preliminary stages, management is unable to determine the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome and, accordingly, has not accrued any amount for potential losses in connection with this lawsuit. On August 19, 2004, the Company entered into an exclusive three-year agreement with the National Rifle Association of America to deploy and integrate Book It, Rover! Under the terms of the agreement, the Company will collect travel operator commissions and provide a quarterly affinity royalty to the National Rifle Association of America based on the total amount of travel volume. In addition, the Company must pay the National Rifle Association of America a minimum royalty of $140,000 per year. NOTE 4 - INCOME TAXES The Company records income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." The Company has incurred net operating losses since inception resulting in a deferred tax asset, for which a valuation allowance was provided since it is more likely than not that the deferred tax asset will not be realized. NOTE 5 - INTANGIBLE ASSETS As of June 30, 2004, intangible assets consist of the following:
GROSS NET AMORTIZATION CARRYING ACCUMULATED CARRYING PERIOD AMOUNT AMORTIZATION AMOUNT --------------------------------------------------- Software Development Costs 5 $ 136,145 $ 40,843 $ 95,302 Acquired Software 5 288,000 96,000 192,000 Intellectual Properties 5 1,112,718 233,657 879,061 ------------------------------------- $1,536,863 $ 370,501 $1,166,362 =====================================
Amortization expense amounted to $173,667 and $68,415 for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 and $76,092 and $47,208 for three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively. The estimated future amortization expense for each of the five succeeding years is as follows:
JUNE 30: 2005 $ 304,359 2006 304,359 2007 304,359 2008 253,285 2009 - ---------- $1,166,362 ==========
12 NOTE 6 - LONG-LIVED ASSETS HELD FOR DISPOSAL The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an investment may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceed the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. In connection with the acquisition of Brekel in July 2002, the Company reclassified production equipment acquired from Brekel that is no longer being used for operations to equipment held for disposal. During the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, the Company recorded impairment losses of $40,706 and $75,000, respectively, to reduce the equipment to zero. NOTE 7- NOTES AND DEBENTURES PAYABLE On March 5, 2003 Sequiam issued to La Jolla Cove Investors, Inc. ("LJCI"), an 8% Convertible Debenture in the principal amount of $300,000 and a warrant to purchase 2,000,000 shares of our common stock at $1.50 per share (the "Initial Financing"). Sequiam received a total of $150,000 of the principal amount of the debenture, representing the balance due at December 31, 2003. In connection with the debenture and the warrant, Sequiam was required to register the resale of common stock to be issued to LJCI upon conversion of the debenture and exercise of the warrant. To meet this obligation, Sequiam filed a registration statement on April 27, 2003, an amended registration statement on May 7, 2003, and a second amended registration statement on June 23, 2003, all of which were withdrawn on September 5, 2003, prior to being declared effective. Effective as of January 29, 2004, the Company entered into an Agreement of Accord and Satisfaction with LJCI pursuant to which LJCI agreed to accept $200,000 plus 100,000 shares of restricted common stock in accord and satisfaction of the debenture and warrant and other documents related to the Initial Financing. As a result, all of our obligations under the Initial Financing, including the obligation to file a new registration statement, have been terminated. Pursuant to the accord and satisfaction, Sequiam issued 100,000 shares of restricted common stock to LJCI, which, had a fair market value of $51,000, based on a closing trading price of $0.51 per share on January 29, 2004. In addition, the Company delivered to LJCI a promissory note in the principal amount of $200,000 with interest in the amount of 8% per year, plus principal, due in six installments of $34,017 per month beginning February 1, 2004. On April 30, 2004, the Company paid the entire remaining principal balance and accrued interest. Under the new agreement, LJCI has "piggy-back" registration rights, meaning Sequiam is obligated to include the resale of the 100,000 shares of restricted common stock by LJCI in any registered public offering of securities the Company may make during any time that LJCI still holds such 100,000 shares. Unless the Company makes a registered public offering, it has no obligation to register the resale of the 100,000 shares of restricted common stock. On May 13, 2003, Sequiam entered into a loan agreement with Lee Harrison Corbin, Attorney-in-Fact For the Trust Under the Will of John Svenningsen, for a principal loan amount of $400,000 under a promissory note bearing interest at five percent (5%). In connection with this loan, the Company issued two warrants to the holder to purchase 625,000 shares of its common stock at an exercise price of $0.01 per share and 350,000 shares of its common stock at $1.00 per share. The Warrants for 625,000 shares were exercised on June 25, 2003 and the warrants for 350,000 remain outstanding and expire in May 2008. The fair value of the attached warrants exceeded the value of the proceeds received from the Note and has been recorded as a debt discount of $400,000. The payment schedule was originally tied to that of the LJCI Convertible Debenture described above. However, on January 30, 2004 the Company amended the loan agreement such that all principal and interest become due on January 30, 2005. The debt discount has been amortized over the original estimated life of the note of 36 months. Beginning in January 2004, the remaining unamortized debt discount is being amortized over twelve months. As of 13 June 30 2004, the balance of the Note, net of the unamortized debt discount of $154,284 was $245,716 and is included in notes and debentures payable. On December 18, 2003, the Company entered into a loan agreement with Lee Harrison Corbin, Attorney-in-Fact For the Trust Under the Will of John Svenningsen, for a principal loan amount of $100,000 under a promissory note bearing interest at five percent (5%). In connection with this loan, the Company issued a warrant to the holder to purchase 200,000 shares of its common stock at an exercise price of $0.25 per share. The principal and accrued interest is due six months from the date of the loan and was paid on June 18, 2004. On December 18, 2003, the Company entered into a loan agreement with Lee Harrison Corbin, for a principal loan amount of $50,000 under a promissory note bearing interest at five percent (5%). In connection with this loan, the Company issued one warrant to the holder to purchase 100,000 shares of its common stock at an exercise price of $0.25 per share. The principal and accrued interest is due six months from the date of the loan and was paid on June 18, 2004. On December 26, 2003, the Company entered into a debenture agreement ("Debenture") with Eagle Financial, LLC, for a principal loan amount of $150,000 under a debenture bearing interest at ten percent (10%). The principal and accrued interest was paid on March 26, 2004. The Debenture also provides for an unconditional equity provision whereby the Company issued seventy five thousand (75,000) restricted shares to the Holder as an incentive to lend. The fair value of the shares has been recorded as a debt discount of $30,000. On January 30, 2004, the Company entered into a loan agreement with Lee Harrison Corbin, Attorney-in-Fact For the Trust Under the Will of John Svenningsen, for a principal loan amount of $400,000 under a promissory note bearing interest at five percent (5%). In connection with this loan, the Company issued one warrant to the holder to purchase 800,000 shares of its common stock at an exercise price of $0.225 per share. The Warrant was exercised on January 30, 2004. The principal and interest become due on January 30, 2005. The preceding information is summarized as follows at June 30 2004:

All forward-looking statements attributable to us are expressly qualified in their entirety by these and other factors. We undertake no obligation to update or revise these forward-looking statements, whether to reflect events or circumstances after the date initially filed or published, to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events or otherwise. INTRODUCTION The following discussion and analysis summarizes the significant factors affecting: (i) our consolidated results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 compared to the three and six-months ended June 30, 2003; and (ii) financial liquidity and capital resources. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and notes included in this prospectus. We are an information management, software and security technology company specializing in biological identification security systems and web-based application services for the business, education and travel industries. Our business is divided into two operating segments: (a) Safety and Security; and (b) Information Management. We derive or plan to derive our revenues from five sources: (i) the sale and licensing of our software products; (ii) consulting, custom software services and web development services; (iii) maintenance agreements in connection with the sale and licensing of software products; (iv) Internet access and web hosting services. We have not yet generated revenue from the sale and licensing of our software products; and (v) the sale and licensing of our biometric products. Software license revenue will be recognized when all of the following criteria have been met: (a) there is an executed license agreement and software has been delivered to the customer; (b) the license fee is fixed and payable within twelve months; (c) collection is deemed probable; and (d) product returns are deemed reasonably estimable. Maintenance revenues are recognized ratably over the term of the maintenance contract, typically 12 to 36 months. Internet access and web-hosting services are recognized over the period the services are provided, typically month-to-month. The following table shows the proportion of total revenues by segment in the three and six-month period ended June 30, 2004.

SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2004 COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2003. Unless otherwise noted, references to 2004 represent the six-month period ended June 30, 2004 and references to 2003 represent the six-month period ended June 30, 2003. REVENUES. Total revenue decreased by $100,851 or 43.1% to $133,253 in 2004, from $234,104 in 2003 because we have discontinued certain ancillary services such as web development, custom software development and dial up ISP services so that we may focus entirely on our core products. Software and license fee revenues were unchanged at $-0- for both 2004 and 2003. Revenues from consulting, custom software services, web development services and internet access and web-hosting services totaled $69,328 in 2004 and $234,104 in 2003, a decrease of 59.7%. Revenues from sales of the BioVaultTM were $38,925 in 2004 compared to $-0- in 2003. Revenues from the licensing of the Q300 (discussed below) were $25,000 in 2004 compared to $-0- in 2003. Revenues from the maintenance of our existing IRP customers were $5,200 in 2004 compared to $5,200 in 2003. During 2003, we spent most of our time acquiring and redeveloping our products. Sales and marketing efforts did not commence until the fourth quarter of 2003. We believe that the high cost of the BioVault was an impediment to its sales. As a result, we developed a less expensive version of the BioVault, the Q300. Now that our key products such as IRP, IRPlicator and the BioVaultTM are ready to formally come to market, we expect to begin generating revenues from these products during 2004. During 2004, we entered into a pilot program for our IRP products with AlphaGraphics, Inc., an international chain of 320 print shops and entered into a trial program with a state community college and county school system. In addition, in 2004 we entered into a license agreement with Security Marketing Group, LLC ("SMG") for the Q300. SMG is required to pay to us a license fee of $2,000,000 cash, payable $25,000 upon execution and delivery of the license agreement, and the balance on or before December 31, 2004. In addition to the license fee, SMG is required to pay us a monthly royalty of $20.00 for every unit sold by them. We also received a non-dilutive 8% interest in Security Marketing Group, LLC as part of the license agreement. Management is uncertain as to the collectibility of the $1,975,000 balance of the license fee pertaining to the license agreement with SMG. Failure to pay amounts due under this agreement constitutes an event of default. In such circumstance, SMG, after receiving written notice from us, has 30 days to cure such breach. If the breach is not cured, we shall have the right to terminate the agreement without further liability and SMG must return all intellectual properties to us. We are currently in discussions with other companies for the license of our other biometric technology products. As a result of these recent developments, we expect: (a) that consulting, custom software services, web development and web-hosting activities will make up a smaller portion of our overall revenues; and (b) that revenues from our Safety and Security segment will begin to increase in late 2004 and early 2005. COST OF SERVICES AND PRODUCT SALES. Cost of services and product sales were $571,307 in 2004 and $476,675 in 2003, an increase of $94,632 or 19.9 %. This increase was primarily attributable to increased 21 depreciation and amortization expense. Depreciation and amortization expense were $282,422 in 2004 and $197,871 in 2003, an increase of $84,551 or 29.9 %. This increase is attributable to the amortization of intellectual properties from W.M.W. Communications, Inc., Smart Biometrics, Inc., Telepartners, Inc. and Fingerprint Detection Technologies, Inc. SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $1,185,555 in 2004 and $2,371,562 in 2003, a decrease of $1,186,007 or 50 %. The reduction was due to non-recurring, non-cash charges for services incurred in 2003 of $1,547,895. We increased our recurring selling and overhead expenditures such as salaries, wages and benefits for administrative and marketing personnel, computer maintenance and supplies, professional services (such as legal and accounting fees), and corporate travel expenses resulting from the overall growth of our operations. Our total payroll was $551,512 for 2004 and $174,017 for 2003. This increase in payroll is attributable to our growth from 17 employees in 2003, to 24 employees in 2004, and the hiring of three new executives. The $377,495 increase in payroll and the partial payment of accrued shareholder salaries has reduced our liquidity and decreased our cash flow for 2004. We can further expect that payroll will continue to reduce our liquidity and cash flow for the next six months as we attempt to bring our products to market. Once we establish sales for our software and biometric products the payroll burden will be reduced as a percentage of total revenue. We expect to increase payroll in the third and fourth quarters as we plan to hire five to seven sales professionals to sell our products to end users to supplement the distribution of our products through value-added resellers and other resellers. LOSSES ON SALE OF EQUIPMENT, IMPAIRMENT OF EQUIPMENT HELD FOR SALE AND DEBT SETTLEMENT. A loss of $46,198 was recognized on the remaining value of equipment held for resale. INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense was $423,268 in 2004 and $43,890 in 2003, an increase of $379,378 or 864.4 %. This increase is attributable to the increase in loans from shareholders, long-term debt, notes payable and debt discounts recorded on the notes payable. NET LOSSES. We incurred net losses of $2,093,075 in 2004 and $2,737,147 in 2003, a decrease of $644,072 or 23.5%. The significant decrease was attributed to non-cash and non-recurring expenses for investment banking, consulting and other services acquired in exchange for stock totaling $1,759,446 together with $855,369 of additional losses on debt settlements, sales of assets and debt discount accretion incurred in 2003. We expect to incur additional net losses through the third and fourth quarter of 2004 as we introduce our products to the marketplace. We expect cash flow to increase beginning in the third quarter using proceeds from sales of our products. The Company presently requires sales of approximately $300,000 per month to provide a positive cash flow. QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 2004 COMPARED TO QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 2003. Unless otherwise noted, references to 2004 represent the quarter period ended June 30, 2004 and references to 2003 represent the quarter period ended June 30, 2003. REVENUES. Total revenue decreased by $52,722 or 47.5 % to $58,188 in 2004, from $110,910 in 2003 because we have discontinued certain ancillary services such as web development, custom software development and dial up ISP services so that we may focus entirely on our core products. Software and license fee revenues were unchanged at $-0- for both 2004 and 2003. Revenues from consulting, custom software services, web development services and internet access and web-hosting services totaled $22,834 in 2004 and $110,910 in 2003, a decrease of 79.4%. Revenues from sales of the BioVaultTM were $35,354 in 2004 compared to $-0- in 2003. Revenues from the licensing of the Q300 (discussed below) were $25,000 in 2004 compared to $-0- in 2003. Revenues from the maintenance of our existing IRP customers were $5,200 in 2004 compared to $5,200 in 2003. During 2003, we spent most of our time acquiring and redeveloping our products. Sales and marketing efforts did not commence until the fourth quarter of 2003. We believe that the high cost of the BioVault was an impediment to its sales. As a result, we developed a less expensive version of the BioVault, the Q300. Now that our key products such as IRP, IRPlicator and the BioVaultTM are ready to formally come to market, we expect to begin generating revenues from these products during 2004. 22 As a result of these recent developments, we expect: (a) that consulting, custom software services, web development and web-hosting activities will make up a smaller portion of our overall revenues; and (b) that revenues from our Safety and Security segment will begin to increase in late 2004 and early 2005. COST OF SERVICES AND PRODUCT SALES. Costs of services and product sales were $290,605 in 2004 and $251,973 in 2003, an increase of $38,632 or 15.3%. This increase was primarily attributable to increased depreciation and amortization expense. Depreciation and amortization expense were $129,453 in 2004 and $115,032 in 2003, an increase of $14,421 or 12.5 %. This increase is attributable to the amortization of intellectual properties from W.M.W. Communications, Inc., Smart Biometrics, Inc., Telepartners, Inc. and Fingerprint Detection Technologies, Inc. SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $586,135 in 2004 and $1,881,818 in 2003, a decrease of $1,295,683 or 68.9 %. The reduction was due to non-recurring, non-cash charges for services incurred in 2003 of $1,547,895. We increased our recurring selling and overhead expenditures such as salaries, wages and benefits for administrative and marketing personnel, computer maintenance and supplies, professional services (such as legal and accounting fees), and corporate travel expenses resulting from the overall growth of our operations. Our total payroll was $342,518 for the quarter ended June 30, 2004 and $86,917 for the quarter ended June 30, 2003. This increase in payroll is attributable to our growth from 17 employees in 2003, to 24 employees in 2004, and the hiring of three new executives. The addition of the employees and the partial payment of accrued shareholder salaries has negatively impacted liquidity and cash flow for 2004. We can further expect that payroll will continue to reduce our liquidity and cash flow for the next six months as we attempt to bring our products to market. Once we establish sales for our software and biometric products the payroll burden will be reduced as a percentage of total revenue. We expect to increase payroll in the third and fourth quarters as we plan to hire five to seven sales professionals to sell our products to end users to supplement the distribution of our products through value-added resellers and other resellers. LOSSES ON SALE OF EQUIPMENT, IMPAIRMENT OF EQUIPMENT HELD FOR SALE AND DEBT SETTLEMENT. A loss of $40,560 was recognized on the remaining value of equipment held for resale. INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense was $135,228 in 2004 and $25,906 in 2003, an increase of $109,322 or 422.0 %. This increase is attributable to the increase in loans from shareholders, long-term debt, notes payable and debt discounts recorded on the notes payable. NET LOSSES. We incurred net losses of $994,340 in 2004 and $2,009,041 in 2003, a decrease of $1,014,701 or 50.5 %. The significant decrease was attributed to non-cash and non-recurring expenses for investment banking, consulting and other services acquired in exchange for stock totaling $1,759,446 together with $855,369 of additional losses on debt settlements, sales of assets and debt discount accretion incurred in 2003. We expect to incur additional net losses through the third and fourth quarter of 2004 as we introduce our products to the marketplace. We expect cash flow to increase beginning in the third quarter using proceeds from sales of our products. The Company presently requires sales of approximately $300,000 per month to provide a positive cash flow. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Net cash used in operating activities was $1,697,594 for 2004, as a result of the net loss during the period of $2,093,075, offset by non-cash expenses of $723,663, increases in accrued shareholder salaries of $105,000 and net decrease in working capital items totaling $446,987. Net cash used for investing activities was $80,008 for 2004, due to purchases of equipment of $9,479 and cash paid for the acquisition of Access Orlando of $70,529. Net cash provided by financing activities was $2,507,508 for 2004. Proceeds from the notes payable accounted for $400,000, long-term debt $2,000,000 and sales of common stock accounted for $900,100 and were 23 offset by commissions of $139,008 for net proceeds of $761,092. Payments of long-term debt used cash of $9,564 and repayments of notes and debentures and repayments of shareholder loans used cash of $644,020. Current liabilities of $3,372,522 exceed current assets of $895,168 by $2,477,354. Of that amount, $1,691,635 or 68.3% is owed to shareholders as loans and accrued but unpaid salaries under employment agreements. The officers of the company are dedicated to its business plan and will place no undue demands on its working capital. They expect payment from future cash flows, equity capital infusions or possible equity capital conversions. Also included in current liabilities is $358,541 of accounts payable owed by the former Brekel Group, Inc. We are negotiating to settle these liabilities related to the former Brekel Group, Inc. at amounts less than the amounts recorded in the balance sheet. We are unable to estimate an expected settlement below the carrying amount at this time. We expect that these liabilities will be settled for cash. Prior to our acquisition of the Brekel Group, Inc., effective July 1, 2001, the Brekel Group, Inc. entered into an operating lease agreement to rent approximately 60,000 square feet of combined office and manufacturing space through June 30, 2011. Because we determined to cease Brekel's print and publishing operations before we acquired it, effective July 1, 2002, Brekel entered into a lease forbearance agreement for 10,000 square feet of the same space for the remaining term of the lease. In April 2004, we entered into a new lease agreement and note payable with the landlord that supercedes and replaces the lease forbearance agreement entered into by the Brekel Group, Inc. effective July 1, 2002 prior to its acquisition by us. The new lease for 24,085 square feet is effective July 1, 2004 for a period of seventy-two months beginning July 1, 2004 and ending on June 30, 2010. The note payable was fixed at $1,600,000 together with interest thereon at a simple interest rate equal to six percent per annum. The components of the note payable is $893,112 of deferred rent and $706,888 of tenant improvements. Commencing on August 1, 2004 and continuing on the first day of each month thereafter through and including June 1, 2010, we are scheduled to pay to Lender payments consisting of principal and interest in the amount of $26,517 per month. The new minimum future rentals required under the operating lease and the maturities of the long-term note payable are as follows beginning July 1, 2004:
Year Rentals Maturities ---- -------- ----------- 2004 $ 57,389 $ 93,514 2005 146,107 234,181 2006 158,509 248,624 2007 162,472 263,959 2008 166,534 280,239 Thereafter 257,100 479,483 --------------------- $948,111 $ 1,600,000 =====================
Since December 31, 2003, we sold securities in six separate private placements. As a result, we have received during the quarter ended June 30, 2004 total net proceeds of $761,092 and most of this amount is reflected as additional paid-in capital in our financial statements for the period ended June 30, 2004. We also received $400,000 of proceeds from a loan, and $2,000,000 from a secured convertible term note described below. On April 27, 2004, pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement dated as of the same date, we completed the sale of a secured convertible term note with Laurus Master Fund, Ltd. The note has a term of three years and accrues interest at an annual rate equal to the "prime rate" (4.25% at June 30, 2004) published in the Wall Street Journal plus 2%. The note is convertible into shares of our common stock at a conversion price of $0.66 per share. In connection with the sale of the note, we issued the purchaser a common stock purchase warrant to purchase up to 666,666 shares of our common stock at prices ranging from $0.83 per share to $1.16 per share. Also 24 in connection with the sale of the note, we agreed to register for resale the shares of common stock into which the note is convertible and the warrant is exercisable. We believe that the proceeds from the Laurus transaction will be adequate to support our operations while we build sales revenues from our products. Once the proceeds from the Laurus transaction are used, which we anticipate will occur in approximately two months, we may need to obtain additional financing to continue our operations. APPLICATION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT COSTS Costs incurred to establish technological feasibility of computer software products are research and development costs and are charged to expense as incurred. Costs of producing product masters subsequent to technological feasibility are capitalized. Capitalization of computer software costs ceases when the product is available for general release to the customers. Capitalized software costs are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the products or the gross revenue ratio method, whichever results in the greater amount of amortization. ACQUIRED SOFTWARE In connection with the acquisition of Access Orlando, the Company acquired Internet Remote Print software that was assigned a value of $288,000, representing the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the tangible assets acquired. The acquired software is being amortized over its expected useful life of five years. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTIES In connection with the acquisitions of Smart Biometrics, Inc, Telepartners, Inc. and Fingerprint Detection Technologies, Inc., the Company acquired intellectual properties including patents, trademarks, technical drawings, proprietary software and other knowledge based assets that were assigned values of $700,000, $160,000 and $237,650, respectively, for a total of $1,097,650 representing the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the tangible assets acquired. The acquired intellectual properties are being amortized over their expected useful life of five years. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities ("Interpretation No. 46"). In general, a variable interest entity is a corporation, partnership, trust, or any other legal structure used for business purposes that either does not have equity investors with voting rights or has equity investors that do not provide sufficient financial resources for the entity to support its activities. Interpretation No. 46 requires a variable interest entity to be consolidated by a company if that company is subject to a majority of the risk of loss from the variable interest entity's activities or is entitled to receive a majority of the entity's residual returns or both. We do not expect that Interpretation No. 46 will have a material effect on our results of operations or financial condition as we do not currently utilize or have interests in any variable interest entities. OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS We do not currently have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to our stockholders. 25 SIGNATURES ---------- In accordance with the requirements of the Exchange Act, the registrant caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized.
