PART I
ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
The terms “ILTS,” “the Company,” “we,” “our,” and “us” refer to International Lottery & Totalizator Systems, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries, unless otherwise specified.
ORGANIZATIONAL HISTORY
ILTS is a leading supplier of computerized wagering systems for the online lottery and pari-mutuel racing industries.

Our company was founded in 1978 and completed an initial public offering in 1981. Our operations and corporate headquarters are located in Southern California. We also have sales operations in Australia and Europe.
BUSINESS OVERVIEW
We design, manufacture, sell, manage, support, and service computerized wagering systems and terminals for the online lottery and pari-mutuel racing industries worldwide. Although we are not presently doing so, we have also successfully demonstrated the capability to provide full facilities management services to customer organizations authorized to conduct online lotteries.
Our wagering systems include the following components:
    A central computer installation that is comprised of computer hardware and a commercially available operating system, used in conjunction with our proprietary DataTrak application software;
 
    The Datamark and Intelimark families of point-of-sale devices; and
 
    The communication network to interface the terminals to the central computer installation.
System features include real-time, secure processing of data received from multiple locations, hardware redundancy and complete communications redundancy in order to provide the highest level of fault tolerant operation.
The DataTrak online gaming system controls the overall lottery operation. Although to date it has been sold only in conjunction with our terminals, DataTrak can also be sold as a stand-alone system that will interface to third-party terminals. Likewise, the terminals can be, and have been, sold separately to interface to a third-party lottery/tote central system.
The point-of-sale, proprietary components of our systems are the Datamark and Intelimark families of ticketing terminals. These terminals are compact, reliable, microprocessor-based units, which scan marksense slips or interpret operator-input data in order to produce a ticket receipt to be retained by the customer. Our newest terminal models use the latest touch screen and scanner technology. We sell the terminals separately or as part of a turnkey wagering application system, or, we will modify a terminal’s features or configurations and central system software to meet specific customer requirements.
Using commercially available hardware and software, we design the communication network to interface the DataTrak central system with the wagering terminals to best fit each customer’s specific application.
Our technology can be modified for use in secure transaction-processing applications outside the gaming industry. Previously, we provided a toll-road ticketing system utilizing automated ticket printers and readers. Recently we have developed a system for application in the voting industry.
PRODUCTS AND SERVICES
Wagering Application Software
The principal component of our wagering system is the DataTrak central system software. DataTrak controls the operation of the entire system. It performs the following functions:
    Maintains communication with each point-of-sale terminal;

2


Table of Contents

    Ensures complete security;
 
    Logs all activity and wagers;
 
    Populates a commercially available database in real time with high level security;
 
    Identifies the set of winning tickets using the lottery game draw results;
 
    Calculates prize pool amounts;
 
    Allows the use of other third party software products to analyze and compile management data; and
 
    Provides mission critical fault tolerance.
Development of this software has been an evolutionary process. We continually incorporate new and improved technologies as they become available in the marketplace. This allows us to take advantage of the latest technology trends to enhance existing features of our system, and also to provide new distribution channels and operational features so that our customers can reach new or expanding markets. Since our software architecture is non-proprietary, customers can also utilize third party reporting and analysis software tools of their choice to interface with it.
The DataTrak system uses client-server architecture. This gives customers the advantage of configuring the system economically to meet current requirements, and the ability to expand or contract the system as their operation requires.
In recent years, we have expanded the capability of the DataTrak system to address newly emerging sales channels of our customers. These alternative sales channels have come about through the emergence of the internet and mobile applications. The expanded capability is included in our product offering called “DataTrak Anywhere.” This product allows the use of any or all of the following: Interactive Voice Recognition (“IVR”), Short Messaging Services (“SMS”), Wireless Application Protocol (“WAP”), and the internet to interface to the DataTrak system. These methods can be used to place wagers in a number of ways, depending on the availability of each method in a specific locale through:
    An account with the lottery;
 
    Prepaid card; or
 
    Post-paid billing.
Terminals
We have supplied in excess of 50,000 terminal products to the wagering industry since our first unit was sold in 1980. Currently, we have two families of full feature terminals in production: the Datamark and the Intelimark.
    Both are based on PC architecture and utilize commercially available software operating systems;
 
    Both are small, lightweight, and highly reliable; and
 
    Both are programmed using standard software languages.
Datamark
We have developed many models of Datamark terminals throughout our company’s history. The current version is the Datamark XClaim terminal, introduced as a low-cost terminal. Its optical mark reader and thermal printer require little or no adjustments or maintenance. It is economically priced and extremely easy to use with features that increase operator efficiency and reduce transaction time. The XClaim can be programmed to meet the specific operating requirements of each individual customer. A keyboard is provided for operator input and a LCD displays the wagering details.
Intelimark
There are two terminals in the Intelimark family:
    The Intelimark was introduced in 1999 and incorporates commercially available hardware and software from strategic partners. The Intelimark was designed in concert with Seiko-Epson Corporation, one of the leading providers of point-of-sale terminals in the world. We are a VAR of point-of-sale terminal equipment manufactured by Epson America, Inc. The Intelimark incorporates a proprietary optical mark reader, and has the option of using a full-color touch screen or traditional keyboard to enter data.

Table of Contents

    The Intelimark FLX, introduced in 2003, is a modular version of the advanced Intelimark touch screen lottery terminal, packaged to offer maximum flexibility for retailer convenience. All components that make up the complete terminal are freestanding modules that can be arranged to meet the unique physical requirements of each retailer location. Driven by the market demand for enhanced ticket reading capability, the Intelimark FLX is equipped with a high-speed contact image scanner that will accept up to A4 size slips and is capable of character recognition and signature capture. Its modular design, open architecture and PC-based technology provide a flexible platform that can quickly and economically respond to the dynamic needs of both players and retailers.
Passport II
We offer a completely portable, battery-powered terminal called the Passport II for mobile applications. This terminal can be equipped with mobile wireless modems to enable true online selling in remote areas or temporary venues where a full-featured terminal is not practical.
Spare Parts
In addition to sales of terminals and central system software and hardware systems, we also realize ongoing revenue from the sale of spare parts for use in the repairs and maintenance of the terminal population.
Software Support Agreements
We offer software maintenance agreements which feature:
    Telephone hot line and e-mail support;
 
    Standard upgrades and patches; and
 
    Primary technical support for third party software products purchased through ILTS.
In addition, we offer software modifications and enhancements to satisfy specific customer requirements.
PRODUCT MARKETS
Revenue from the sale of lottery and horse racing systems is almost exclusively derived from contracts with foreign customers. As of April 30, 2005, our equipment has been delivered and installed in Australia, Belgium, Brazil, China, Denmark, the Dominican Republic, England, Finland, France, Hong Kong, India, Macau, Malaysia, the Netherlands, Norway, Papua New Guinea, the Philippines, Singapore, Swaziland, Sweden, the Ukraine, and the United States.
COMPETITIVE BUSINESS CONDITIONS
We compete primarily in the online lottery and horse racing industries by providing high-quality wagering systems and terminals that are reliable, secure and fast. In addition, we believe that we offer our customers greater flexibility in design and custom options than do our competitors. The market for online lottery system contracts is highly competitive. In general, our competitors have significantly greater resources than we do. Although our sales in the United States have been insignificant, we believe that our company has been a substantial factor in the international marketplace.
Our principal competition for full lottery systems are:
    GTech Holdings Corporation (a U.S. company);
 
    Scientific Games (a U.S. company);
 
    IntraLot (a Greek company);
 
    Essnet (a Swedish company).
For terminal sales only, we have numerous competitors in selected markets. In addition to the foregoing, some of our larger competitors include:

4


Table of Contents

    Wincor-Nixdorf (a German company);
 
    KEBA, GesmbH & Co. (an Austrian company);
 
    Sagem (a French company); and
 
    Olivetti Tecnost (an Italian company).
For the sale of horse racing systems, our main competitor is Scientific Games (a U.S. Company).
MANUFACTURING PROCESSES
We assemble terminals, repair modules, and supply spare parts from our domestic facility. During recent years, the design of certain high-production units has been streamlined. This cost saving measure has allowed us to outsource the assembly of these units to local manufacturers while maintaining control over the materials and quality.
In some cases, we have delivered terminal kits to customers who have purchased a license to assemble the terminals at their own location. Extensive training is provided to ensure high quality manufacturing.
MATERIALS AND SUPPLIERS
For terminal components and spare parts, we generally have multiple sources, but a limited number of items are available only from a single supplier. Accordingly, those items could from time to time, be in short supply or on allocation due to their limited availability.
For the fiscal year ended April 30, 2005, ten vendors accounted for approximately 90% of our raw material purchases. For the year ended April 30, 2004, three vendors accounted for approximately 61% of our raw material purchases.
DEPENDENCE UPON A FEW CUSTOMERS
Our business to date has been dependent on major contracts from a specific pool of lottery operators. Failure to obtain new contracts from existing and new customers would have a materially adverse effect on our financial performance.
For the year ended April 30, 2005, two unrelated customers accounted for 25% of total revenue, while two related customers accounted for 60% of total revenue. For the year ended April 30, 2004, two unrelated customers accounted for 44% of total revenue, while two related customers provided 48% of total revenue.
PATENTS, TRADEMARKS AND LICENSES
We have two U.S. patents issued on our products. We believe that our technical expertise, trade secrets and the creative skills of our personnel are of substantially greater importance to our company’s success than the benefits of patent protection. We typically require customers, employees, licensees, subcontractors, strategic partners, and joint venture partners who have access to proprietary information concerning our products to sign nondisclosure agreements. We rely on such agreements, other security measures, and trade-secret law to protect our proprietary information.
International Lottery & Totalizator Systems, Inc., ILTS, DataTrak and Intertote are registered trademarks of our company. Intelimark is a pending registered trademark. We have other products that have been trademarked, such as Intelimark FLX, Passport II and DataTrak Anywhere, all mentioned herein.
REGULATION
The countries in which we market our products generally have regulations governing lottery or horseracing operations, and the appropriate governing body could restrict or ban operations in these countries. Any such action could have a material adverse effect on our company.
Foreign countries often impose restrictions on corporations seeking to do business within their borders, including foreign exchange controls, and in some jurisdictions, requirements for domestic manufacturing content. In addition, laws and legal procedures in these countries may differ from those generally existing in the United States. Conducting business in these countries may involve additional risks in protecting our business and assets, including

proprietary information. Changes in foreign business restrictions or laws could have a significant impact on our operations.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
We are dedicated to ongoing research and development (“R&D”) to take advantage of new technologies, stay competitive in our market; and explore new markets where our core competency can be applied.
For our lottery customers, recent hardware research and development has focused on bringing to production our latest terminal product called the Intelimark FLX. This product consists of commercially-available modules that can be configured in several ways to meet a variety of specific customer requirements. The FLX incorporates a wide range of options, including touch screen, flat-panel technology, contact image scanning technology, and high-powered processing capability.
Lottery customers are also benefiting from our continued R&D efforts in the use of wireless terminal technologies using LAN/WAN equipment and cellular devices. These technologies: Short Messaging Service (“SMS”), Wireless Application Protocol (“WAP”), and Interactive Voice Response (“IVR”) allow bettors to place bets from any location, rather than at traditional point-of-sale agencies. This research and development effort has allowed us to implement these technologies into our current product known as Datatrak Anywhere.
In addition, we have continued to devote significant resources to developing several hardware and software voting solutions. These efforts leverage our extensive experience to develop secure, mission-critical solutions that:
    Are simple to set up;
 
    Are easy to use;
 
    Require minimal voter education; and
 
    Can tally results in real time.
We now have a hardware and software solution that reads and captures ballot data to replace controversial punch-card systems in any voting environment. We have expanded our software base with additional modules so customers can run elections without other software dependencies.
In general, we continue to examine other technologies based upon new industry developments, which will increase our customers’ market share. For example, we have invested resources to expand specific applications to run on the Linux operating system. These Linux based applications are targeted at products used in both wagering and voting markets.
ENVIRONMENT EFFECTS
There are no significant capital expenditures required to comply with laws relating to the protection of the environment.
EMPLOYEES
As of April 30, 2005, we had 57 employees worldwide on a full-time equivalent basis. We have no employees that are members of labor unions. We believe our relationship with our employees is satisfactory.

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR THE REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED SHAREHOLDER MATTERS
Our common stock is traded under the symbol ITSI on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board. As of April 30, 2005, there were 12,943,000 common shares outstanding and approximately 1,100 shareholders of record. Berjaya Lottery Management (H.K.) Ltd. (“BLM”) owned 71.4% of the total outstanding shares while ILTS’s management owned 1%.
Solely for the purpose of calculating the aggregate market value of the voting stock held by non-affiliates of ILTS, as set forth on the cover of this report, it has been assumed that all executive officers and directors of ILTS and BLM are affiliated persons. All of ILTS’s common shares, the only voting stock outstanding, beneficially owned by each such person (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) have been assumed to be held by that person for this calculation. The market value of the common shares is based on the closing price for July 29, 2005, of $.36 per share.

ITEM 6. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
The discussion in this filing contains forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth or implied by forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include dependence on business from foreign customers sometimes in politically unstable regions, political and governmental decisions as to the establishment of lotteries and other wagering industries in which our products are marketed, fluctuations in period-to-period operating results, the absence of significant contract backlog, and other factors described in this Form 10-KSB.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Use of Estimates
Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Accordingly, we are required to make reasonable estimates, judgments and assumptions. We base our estimates on historical experience, contract terms, observance of known trends in our company and the industry as a whole, and information available from other outside sources. Estimates affect the reported amounts and related disclosures. Actual results may differ from initial estimates. The areas most sensitive to estimation are revenue recognition, warranty reserves, the allowance for doubtful accounts and valuation of deferred tax assets.
Revenue Recognition
We recognize revenue using various revenue recognition policies based on the nature of the sale and the terms of the contract. The revenue for the sale of terminals or terminal kits sold as a single element and for the sale of spares (replacement parts for hardware) is recognized upon shipment in accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin, (“SAB”) Topic 13 “Revenue Recognition.” We meet the following four criteria for revenue recognition outlined in SAB Topic 13:
  1.   There is sufficient evidence to support that sales arrangements exist;
 
  2.   The price to the buyer is fixed through signed contracts or purchase orders;
 
  3.   Shipping documents illustrate that delivery of hardware with preinstalled software has occurred; and
 
  4.   Collectibility is reasonably assured through one or more of the following: due diligence prior to contract signing; historical payment practices; or required upfront payments.
Revenue from software sold as a single element is recognized using the percentage-of-completion or completed contract method depending on the complexity of modifications, if any. Revenues for software support agreements and facility management contracts are recognized according to SAB Topic 13.
The majority of our revenue is generated from the sale of multiple element contracts that include terminals, the central system and software modifications. We do not segment these contracts, and revenue is recognized under the percentage-of-completion method in accordance with SOP No. 97-2 “Software Revenue Recognition.” If an arrangement to deliver software or a software system, either alone or together with other products or services, requires significant production, modification, or customization of software, the entire arrangement is accounted for in conformity with No. SOP 81-1 “Accounting for Performance of Construction-Type and Certain Production-Type Contracts” as identified in SOP 97-2 paragraph 7.
Progress toward completion is measured by the ratio of costs incurred to total estimated costs. On a monthly basis, our project management team reviews costs incurred to date and revises expected costs at completion. We use input measures to estimate the costs of software modifications. Our input measures include all direct and indirect costs allocable to contracts. Revenue and gross profit may be adjusted prospectively for revisions in estimated total contract costs. If the current estimates of total contract revenue and contract cost indicate a loss, a provision for the entire loss on the contract is recorded in the period in which it becomes evident. The total estimated loss includes all costs allocable to the specific contract.

Table of Contents

Warranty Reserves
Estimated warranty costs are accrued as revenue is recognized. Warranty reserves are based on historical trends and are adjusted periodically to reflect actual experience. Customers do not have a right to return, except for defective products. Estimated reserves for warranty obligations are accrued as follows:
  1.   Contracts — Contract warranties are specific to the individual contracts. Estimated reserves for warranty obligations are accrued as revenue is recognized. Hardware and software components may be warranted separately:
  a.   Hardware — The warranty phase for terminals or terminal kits commences upon shipment and can extend from 90 days to six months depending on the contract terms.
 
  b.   Software — The warranty phase typically represents a six-month period of time after delivery, as defined by the specific terms of the contract.
  2.   Spares — Terminal replacement parts are warranted to be free from defects for 90 days from the date of shipment. Based on historical experience, warranty costs for spares have been immaterial.
 
  3.   Other — Specific provisions have been made to cover a small number of particular replacement parts for specific customers. We use the most recent inventory cost to determine the value of potential returns.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
The estimate for the allowance for doubtful accounts is based upon our company’s historical bad debt experience with individual customers and any known specific issues or disputes that exist as of the balance sheet date.
Valuation of Deferred Tax Assets
We regularly evaluate our ability to recover the reported amount of our net deferred tax assets considering several factors, including our estimate of the likelihood that we will generate sufficient taxable income in future years in which temporary differences reverse. Due to the uncertainties related to, among other things, the extent and timing of future taxable income, we offset our deferred tax assets by an equivalent valuation as of April 30, 2005 and 2004.

Significant fluctuations in year-to-year results are expected in the gaming industry. Individual contracts are generally of considerable value, and the timing of contracts or sales of spare parts does not occur in a predictable trend. Contracts from the same customer generally do not recur in the short-term. Accordingly, comparative results between periods are not indicative of trends in contract revenue.
For the year ended April 30, 2005, total revenue decreased 10% in comparison to the prior year, primarily due to reductions in the sale of spare parts.

Table of Contents

Revenue from the sale of spare parts decreased 46% from fiscal year 2004 to fiscal year 2005. The significantly high spares revenue in 2004 reflected $3.2 million in shipments to a single domestic customer. Spares revenue consisted of multiple orders from the same base of customers in 2004 and 2005.
During the year ended April 30, 2005, we recognized $6.9 million of contract revenue principally from four customers. Of the $6.9 million of contract revenue in 2005, $3.9 million was derived from the sale of lottery terminals to one customer, and $1.2 million was attributable to the sale of a lottery system to a new customer. For the year ended April 30, 2004, we recognized $6.0 million of contract revenue primarily from three customers. Of the $6.0 million of contract revenue in 2004, $5.5 million was attributable to the sale of lottery terminals to three customers.
Software support revenue remained relatively insignificant for the fiscal years ended April 30, 2005 and 2004.
Related party revenue of $6.2 million accounted for 64% of total revenue for the year ended April 30, 2005, compared to $5.2 million or 48% of total revenue for the year ended April 30, 2004.

Individual contracts are generally significant in value and are awarded in a highly competitive bidding process. The gross profit margin varies from one contract to another, depending on the size of the contract and the competitive market conditions. Accordingly, comparative results between periods are not indicative of trends in gross profit margin.
During the year ended April 30, 2005, we experienced a decline of 8% in the overall gross margins as compared to the prior year 2004. The higher overall gross margins in fiscal year 2004 resulted principally from significantly higher margins achieved on the sales of spare parts.

For the year ended April 30, 2005, research and development (“R&D”) spending was $383,000 or 20% lower than the prior year 2004. The decrease in R&D spending was principally attributable to reduced labor costs and materials spending on a project that applies our technology in the voting industry. As development work progresses towards near-completion phase, we anticipate a further decrease in both labor and materials expenditures.
Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses of $3.1 million for the year ended April 30, 2005 were $611,000 or 16% lower than SG&A expenses reported in the comparable year 2004. We attribute the significant decrease to a combination of factors including improved cost saving initiatives, lower marketing expenditures resulting from fewer bidding opportunities and lower professional fees. The decrease in SG&A expenses was partially offset by a $148,000 charge to bad debt expense. We anticipate that SG&A expenses will remain constant in fiscal year 2006.
Other Income (Expense)
Other income in both fiscal years 2005 and 2004 primarily consisted of foreign exchange gain. Of the $58,000 in other income in the year ended April 30, 2005, $17,000 was attributable to the recognition of cumulative foreign currency translation gain upon dissolution of the subsidiary in the United Kingdom.
For the year ended April 30, 2005, we had net interest income compared to net interest expense in the fiscal year 2004, principally due to the amortized loan origination costs associated with the line of credit facility we had used in fiscal 2004.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Liquidity
Our net working capital at April 30, 2005 was $2.9 million.
There was $2.1 million of accounts receivable due from a single customer, $1.2 million was included under current accounts receivable, and $893,000 was classified as a long term receivable on the basis of the current payment schedule. Such receivables arose in the fourth quarter of 2003 and the first quarter of 2004. We received payments totaling approximately $3.2 million during the period from May 1, 2004 to April 30, 2005 which was $1.4 million less than the scheduled installment payments and additional payments of $150,000 from May 1, 2005 through July 29, 2005. Based on discussions with the customer, management of the Company believes that the customer’s reduced payments are a result primarily of temporary factors with lottery regulators in certain areas in which it operates. Management of the Company also believes, but cannot assure, that such problems will be resolved and that the scheduled installment payments will resume and the missed payments will be made. Nonpayment by the customer of the remaining balance could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s liquidity and results of operations.
Contract backlog at April 30, 2005 was $4.6 million. Of this amount, $3.2 million is related to a contract with the customer discussed in the previous paragraph. We will only deliver the terminal kits upon receiving substantially all of the scheduled payments. The remaining $1.4 million of backlog is expected to be delivered within six months. We anticipate that we will be successful in obtaining additional product or service contracts to enable us to continue normal operations through April 30, 2006. Sources of cash through April 2006 are expected to come from at least a portion of the scheduled installment payments of $2.1 million due from the single customer as discussed in the

12

previous paragraph, and from contract sales, spares revenue and contract backlog. Uses of cash will be for normal operating expenses and costs associated with contract execution.
In the highly competitive industry in which we operate, operating results may fluctuate significantly from period to period. We anticipate that our cash flows from operations and available cash will be sufficient to enable us to meet our liquidity needs through April 30, 2006. Although we are not aware of any particular trends, in the event that we are unable to secure new business, we may experience reduced liquidity or insufficient cash flows.

Cash Flows — Year ended April 30, 2005:
Operating Activities
Net cash used in operating activities was $210,000.
Net loss of $1.8 million was adjusted by $415,000 of noncash charges including depreciation and amortization, warranty reserve expense and loss on disposal of equipment to arrive at net cash flow used in operating activities.
Cash used in operating activities was partially offset by the positive effects of decreases in accounts receivable and inventories of $3.2 million and $750,000, respectively. A $28,000 decrease in other assets and a $65,000 increase in the liability to our Parent company also reflected positive effects to cash used in operating activities.
Cash used in operating activities included a decrease in billings in excess of costs and earnings on uncompleted contracts of $1.9 million. A decrease in accounts payable also used $777,000 of cash. In addition, decreases in accrued payroll and related taxes, warranty reserves and other liabilities further reduced cash by $228,000.
Investing and Financing Activities
We invested $34,000 in computer, office and tooling equipment during the year ended April 30, 2005. With respect to financing activities, payment of short-term note payable reduced our cash position by $804,000.
Cash Flows — Year ended April 30, 2004:
Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities was $1.2 million.
Net loss of $1.8 million was adjusted by $504,000 of noncash charges including depreciation and amortization, amortization of loan fees and warranty reserve expense to arrive at net cash provided by operating activities.
Net cash provided by operating activities reflected positive effects of decreases in accounts receivable and inventories of $5.5 million and $556,000, respectively. Increases in billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contract and the liability to our Parent company had a $1.3 million and $82,000 positive effect on net cash provided by operating activities, respectively.

Table of Contents

Decreases in accounts payable had a $4.7 million negative effect on net cash provided by operating activities. Additionally, an increase in other assets and decreases in accrued payroll and related taxes, warranty reserves and other liabilities had a $231,000 negative effect on net cash provided by operating activities.
Investing and Financing Activities
We invested $129,000 in tooling, computer equipment and computer programs during fiscal year 2004. Financing activities reduced cash by a net of $575,000.
An agreement with one of our vendors to extend terms of payment provided $925,000 in short-term funding, while payoff of the line of credit entered into in 2003 reduced cash by $1.5 million.
The $1.5 million in financing activities reflects payment of a line of credit. On April 3, 2003, a major financial institution extended a $5.5 million line of credit to us to be used for a specific project. This transaction specific working capital line was 90% guaranteed by the United States Export-Import Bank. The line provided for advances of 90% on accounts receivable, collateralized by letters of credit in hand from the customer, or 65% of inventory backed by a letter of credit. Borrowings under the line bore interest at the prime rate plus 1/2 %. We had granted a security interest in rights to collections and inventory as collateral.
On January 29, 2004, prior to the expiration date, the Company terminated the line of credit, because it was no longer required.
Capital Resources
As of April 30, 2005, there were no material commitments for capital expenditures, nor any unused credit facilities.
FOREIGN CURRENCY FLUCTUATION
Our reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. Sales are denominated almost exclusively in U.S. dollars. Occasionally, sales have been effected in foreign currencies. Fluctuations in exchange rates from reporting period to reporting period between various foreign currencies and the U.S. dollar may have an impact on revenue and expense. Such effect may be material in any individual reporting period.
We are exposed to risks associated with changes in foreign exchange rates, principally exchange rates between the U.S. dollar, the Australian dollar and the British pound. Due to the insignificant level of operating activities in our foreign subsidiaries, we do not consider our existing foreign currency translation exposure to be material.
The balance sheets of our international subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars and consolidated with our balance sheet at period end exchange rates, while revenues and expenses are translated at average rates during the period. Fluctuations in the U.S. dollar value of the foreign currency denominated assets are accounted for as an adjustment to stockholders’ equity. Therefore, fluctuations from reporting period to reporting period in the exchange rates between various foreign currencies and the U.S. dollar may impact the foreign currency translation component of our reported stockholders’ equity.
Due to the weakening of the U.S. dollar, we incurred foreign currency translation losses of $64,000 and $32,000 for the years ended April 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. The foreign currency translation losses were accounted for as increases in the other accumulated comprehensive loss component of shareholders’ equity.
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123R, “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS 123R”), a revision of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” requiring that the compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions, including grants of employee stock options, be measured and recognized in the financial statements using the fair value of the compensation awards. The provisions of SFAS 123R are effective for us for the first annual reporting period that begins after December 15, 2005; therefore, the Company will adopt the new requirements no later than the first quarter of fiscal 2007. Adoption of the expensing requirements will reduce the Company’s reported earnings. Management is currently evaluating the two methods of adoption allowed by FAS 123R; the modified-prospective transition method, and the modified-retrospective transition method.

Table of Contents

In November 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 151, “Inventory Costs, an amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4” (“SFAS 151”). SFAS 151 clarifies that abnormal inventory costs such as costs of idle facilities, excess freight and handling costs, and wasted materials (spoilage) are required to be recognized as current period charges. The provisions of SFAS 151 are effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. The adoption of SFAS 151 is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.
SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On May 17, 2005, International Lottery & Totalizator Systems, Inc. (“ILTS”) acting through its wholly owned subsidiary, Unisyn Solutions, Inc., entered into an agreement with Election Systems & Software, Inc. (“ES&S”) for the joint development, certification, manufacturing and distribution of a Precinct Ballot Counter (“PBC”) included in an election management system. The agreement has an initial term of 36 months and shall automatically renew for an unlimited number of one year terms, unless either party provides written notice of its intent not to renew at least 120 days prior to expiration of the then current term.
In consideration of a profit sharing formula, ILTS grants ES&S an exclusive worldwide license to manufacture, sell and sublicense ILTS’ intellectual property relating to the PBC and PBC software to ES&S’ end customers. ES&S agreed to act as ILTS’ exclusive distributor, reseller, on-going service provider and manufacturer of the PBC and PBC software.
The contract also includes a provision for ILTS and ES&S to enter into a software support agreement for ILTS to supply necessary software maintenance and services to ES&S on terms to be negotiated.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Shareholders and Board of Directors
International Lottery & Totalizator Systems, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of International Lottery & Totalizator Systems, Inc. (a 71.4%-owned subsidiary of Berjaya Lottery Management (H.K.) Ltd.) and subsidiaries as of April 30, 2005 and 2004, and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of International Lottery & Totalizator Systems, Inc. and subsidiaries as of April 30, 2005 and 2004, and their results of operations and cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
As discussed under “Major Customers” in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company had an unsecured receivable from a single unrelated international customer of approximately $2.1 million at April 30, 2005, which represented approximately 89% of the Company’s total accounts receivable and 33% of its total assets. This receivable arose primarily from shipments during the last quarter of fiscal 2003 and the first quarter of fiscal 2004. Nonpayment by the customer could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s liquidity and results of operations.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Description of Business
International Lottery & Totalizator Systems, Inc. (“ILTS” or, together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”) designs, manufactures, sells, manages, supports and services computerized wagering systems and terminals for the global online lottery and pari-mutuel racing industries. In addition, although the Company is not presently doing so, ILTS has demonstrated the capability to provide full facilities management services to customer organizations authorized to conduct online lotteries. The Company is largely dependent upon significant contracts for its revenue, which typically includes a deposit upon contract signing and up to three months lead-time before delivery of hardware begins.
Berjaya Lottery Management (H.K.) Ltd. (“BLM” or the “Parent”) owns 71.4% of the outstanding voting stock of ILTS.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of ILTS and its subsidiaries, all of which are wholly owned. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates may affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and revenues and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.
Revenue Recognition
We recognize revenue by applying various relevant revenue recognition policies depending on the nature of the sale and the terms of the contract.
Complete Systems
ILTS’s complete wagering systems include the point-of-sale terminals, a central computer installation and a commercially available operating system used in conjunction with ILTS’s proprietary application software, and the communication network to interface the terminals to the central computer installation. System features include real-time, secure processing of data received from multiple locations, hardware redundancy and complete communications redundancy in order to provide the highest level of fault tolerant operation.
A complete system is comprised of both hardware and software. The hardware portion includes both central system servers and terminals. The software portion includes the application software for both the central system and terminals.
As directed by Statement of Position 97-2 (“SOP 97-2”) “Software Revenue Recognition”, we follow Statement of Position 81-1 (“SOP 81-1”) “Accounting for Performance of Construction-Type and Certain Production-Type Contracts” in accounting for the sale of complete systems. We recognize revenue by using the percentage-of-completion method when the contracts for complete systems fulfill the following criteria:
  1.   Contract performance extends over long periods of time;
 
  2.   The software portion involves significant production, modification or customization;
 
  3.   Reasonably dependable estimates can be made on the progress towards completion, contract revenues and contract costs; and
 
  4.   Each element is essential to the functionality of the other elements of the contracts.
Under the percentage-of-completion method, sales and estimated gross profits are recognized as work progresses. Progress toward completion is measured by the ratio of costs incurred to total estimated costs. Revenue and gross

22


Table of Contents

profit may be adjusted prospectively for revisions in estimated total contract costs. If the current estimates of total contract revenue and contract cost indicate a loss, a provision for the entire loss on the contract is recorded in the period in which they become evident. The total estimated loss includes all costs allocable to the specific contract.
Each complete system contract is reviewed individually to determine the appropriate basis of recognizing revenue. If the contract does not fulfill the above criteria, revenues are recognized only when:
  1.   Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists in the form of signed contracts or purchase orders;
 
  2.   The contract or purchase order contains a fixed or determinable selling price to the buyer;
 
  3.   Collectibility is reasonably assured through due diligence, historical payment practices or upfront payments; and
 
  4.   Delivery has occurred or services have been rendered in accordance with contract terms.
Software — only
In addition to the software portion of a complete system, we develop software for our customers in accordance with the specifications stipulated in a software supply contract. Generally, these contracts are related to additional features or modules to be added to the application software that we have previously developed for our customers. Each software contract is reviewed individually to determine the appropriate basis of recognizing revenue.
For software contracts involving significant development efforts that extend over long periods of time and fulfill the criteria as set out in SOP 81-1, the related revenues are recognized by using the percentage-of-completion method. Other software supply contract revenues are recognized upon delivery when all the conditions specified in SOP 97-2 are met.
Hardware — only
Hardware in the form of assembled terminals, component kits or replacement parts (“spares”) may be sold separately to our customers. Revenues for the sale of hardware are recognized upon shipment in accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin, Topic 13 “Revenue Recognition” only when:
  1.   The Company has evidence that arrangements exist and the price to the buyer is fixed through signed contracts or purchase orders;
 
  2.   Shipping documents illustrate that delivery of hardware has occurred, as stipulated in the terms of the customer contract; and
 
  3.   Collectibility is reasonably assured through one or more of the following: due diligence prior to contract signing; historical payment practices; or required upfront payments.
Service Revenues
Service revenues include software support and facility management agreements. Revenues from software support agreements are recognized, provided collectibility is reasonably assured, in accordance with SOP 97-2 depending on the nature of the associated expenses:
  1.   If costs are immaterial or incurred on a straight-line basis, revenue is recognized ratably over the term of the agreement;
 
  2.   Otherwise, revenue is recognized over the period of the agreement in proportion to the amounts expected to be charged to expense for the services rendered during the period.
We did not have any facility management agreements as of April 30, 2005 or during fiscal 2005 and 2004, although we have had them at certain times in previous fiscal years.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
We determine our allowance for doubtful accounts by considering a number of factors:
  1.   Length of time trade accounts receivable are past due;
 
  2.   Our previous loss history;
 
  3.   The customer’s current ability to pay its obligations;

23


Table of Contents

  4.   Known specific issues or disputes which exist as of the balance sheet date; and
 
  5.   The condition of the general economy and the industry as a whole.
We write off accounts receivable when they become uncollectible. Payments subsequently received on such receivables are applied against the allowance for doubtful accounts.
Warranty Reserves
Estimated warranty costs are accrued as revenues are recognized. Included in the warranty cost accruals are costs for basic warranties on products sold. A summary of product warranty activity is as follows (amounts in thousands):
         
Balance at May 1, 2003
  $ 335  
Additional reserves
    153  
Charges incurred

Additional reserves
    187  
Charges incurred
    (139 )
 
       
Balance at April 30, 2005
  $ 382  
 
       
Warranty reserves are based on historical trends and are adjusted periodically to reflect actual experience. Customers do not have a right to return, except for defective products. Estimated reserves for warranty obligations are accrued as follows:
  1.   Contracts — Contract warranties are specific to the individual contracts. Estimated reserves for warranty obligations are accrued as revenue is recognized. Hardware and software components may be warranted separately:
  a.   Hardware — The warranty phase for terminals or terminal kits commences upon shipment and can extend from 90 days to six months depending on the contract terms.
 
  b.   Software — The warranty phase typically represents a six-month period of time after delivery, as defined by the specific terms of the contract.
  2.   Spares — Terminal replacement parts are warranted to be free from defects for 90 days from the date of shipment. Based on historical experience, warranty costs for spares have been immaterial.
 
  3.   Other — Specific provisions have been made to cover a small number of particular replacement parts for specific customers. We use the most recent inventory cost to determine the value of potential returns.
Income Taxes and Valuation Allowance
The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to the asset and liability method which requires deferred income tax assets and liabilities to be computed annually for temporary differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the temporary differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
Comprehensive Income (Loss)
The Company accounts for comprehensive income or loss in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130 (“SFAS 130”), “Reporting Comprehensive Income.”
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or the current estimated market values. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out method. The Company periodically reviews inventory quantities on hand and records a provision for excess and obsolete inventories based on the following factors:

    Terminal models still currently in the field;
 
    The average life of the models; and
 
    The requirement for replacement parts on older models.

Equipment, Furniture and Fixtures
Equipment, furniture and fixtures are carried at cost. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the useful lives of the assets or the lease term.
Net Income (Loss) Per Share
Basic net income (loss) per share is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. Diluted net income per share is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding adjusted to include the dilutive effects of the assumed exercise of stock options and the application of the treasury stock method.
At April 30, 2005 and 2004, the effects of the assumed exercise of outstanding options to purchase 440,000 and 493,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, at prices ranging from $0.63 to $25.13 per share, were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share because they were anti-dilutive for that purpose.
Foreign Currency Fluctuation
The Company’s reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. Sales are denominated almost exclusively in U.S. dollars. Occasionally, sales have been effected in foreign currencies. Fluctuations in exchange rates from reporting period to reporting period between various foreign currencies and the U.S. dollar may have an impact on revenue and expense. Such effect may be material in any individual reporting period.
The balance sheets of the Company’s international subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars and consolidated with the Company’s balance sheet at period end exchange rates, while revenues and expenses are translated at average rates during the period. Fluctuations in the U.S. dollar value of the foreign currency denominated assets are accounted for as an adjustment to shareholders’ equity. Therefore, fluctuations from reporting period to reporting period in the exchange rates between various foreign currencies and the U.S. dollar may impact the foreign currency translation component of the Company’s reported shareholders’ equity. The Company incurred a foreign currency translation loss of $64,000 for the year ended April 30, 2005 compared to a loss of $32,000 for the year ended April 30, 2004. Translation losses are recorded as increases in the other accumulated comprehensive loss component of shareholders’ equity.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less at the purchase date to be cash equivalents. Included in cash and cash equivalents at April 30, 2005 and 2004 were investments in money market accounts and commercial paper totaling $553,000 and $1.8 million, respectively, which matured in May 2005 and 2004, respectively.

Research and Development Costs
Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Substantially, all research and development expenses are related to new product development and designing significant improvements.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company follows the disclosure-only provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (“SFAS 123”), “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” as amended by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 148 (“SFAS 148”), “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure” and, as permitted by SFAS 123, applies the provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 (“APB 25”), “Accounting For Stock Issued to Employees,” and related interpretations in accounting for its employee stock options. Under APB 25, the Company accounts for stock options using the intrinsic value method and no compensation expense is recognized when the exercise price of stock options equals or exceeds the market price of the underlying stock on the date of grant. Options granted to non-employees are recorded at fair value in accordance with SFAS 123. No options were granted to employees in the years ended April 30, 2005 and 2004, and the Company was not required to record any compensation expense in the respective periods. In addition, there was no material difference between the Company’s historical net loss in the years ended April 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively, and pro forma net loss for such periods assuming compensation cost had been determined based on the fair value at the grant date for all awards granted prior to May 1, 2003 and amortized over the vesting period consistent with the provisions of SFAS 123. As a result of amendments to SFAS 123, the Company will be required to expense the fair value of employee stock options beginning with its first quarter of fiscal 2007.

Revenue:
       
From unrelated customers
  Two customers represented 25% of total revenue   Two customers represented 44% of total revenue
From related customers
  Two customers represented 60% of total revenue   Two customers represented 48% of total revenue
As of April 30, 2005 and 2004, the balance receivable from one unrelated, international customer totaled $2.1 million and $5.3 million which represented 89% and 98% of total accounts receivable and 33% and 46% of total assets, respectively. The balance receivable, which is unsecured, arose primarily from sales of terminal kits shipped during the last quarter of fiscal 2003 and the first quarter of fiscal 2004. During the year ended April 30, 2004, the customer agreed to make installment payments through June 2005 to repay the outstanding balance. The Company received payments totaling approximately $3.2 million during the period from May 1, 2004 to April 30, 2005 which was $1.4 million less than the scheduled installment payments and additional payments of $100,000 from May 1, 2005 through June 24, 2005 which was $823,000 less than the scheduled installment payments. Based on discussions with the customer, management of the Company believes that the customer’s reduced payments are a result primarily of temporary factors with lottery regulators in certain areas in which it operates. Management of the Company also believes, but cannot assure, that such problems will be resolved and that the scheduled installment payments will resume, and the missed payments will be made. Nonpayment by the customer of the remaining balance could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s liquidity and results of operations.
Additionally, the Company had approximately $1.8 million and $2.0 million in kit inventory related to orders from this customer as of April 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively, which it will not ship to the customer until it receives substantially all of the payments due. The Company has the right to sell such inventory to other customers and the decrease in the inventory balance from April 30, 2004 to April 30, 2005 is primarily attributable to such sales.
Major Vendors
For the fiscal year ended April 30, 2005, ten vendors accounted for approximately 90% of our raw material purchases. For the year ended April 30, 2004, three vendors accounted for approximately 61% of our raw material purchases.

3. CREDIT RISK
The Company’s investments in commercial paper, which are included in cash and cash equivalents, are not insured. The Company maintains its other cash balances primarily in two financial institutions. As of April 30, 2005, such other cash balances exceeded the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) limitation for coverage of $100,000 by approximately $942,000. The Company reduces its exposure to credit risk by maintaining all of its cash balances with highly rated financial institutions.

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and amounts used for income tax purposes. As of April 30, 2005, the Company had a deferred tax asset of $22.0 million. Due to the net loss of $1.8 million for the year ended April 30, 2005, the deferred tax asset has been increased by $647,000. The Company has also increased the valuation allowance against its net deferred tax asset by $647,000 at April 30, 2005 due to the uncertainty regarding its realization. The components of the Company’s deferred tax assets are as follows (in thousands):

The Company has Federal and California net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $58.5 million and $5.6 million, respectively, which begin to expire in 2009 and 2005, respectively, unless previously utilized. The difference between the Federal and California net operating loss carryforwards relates primarily to California’s statutory annual reduction rule as well as previous expiration of California net operating losses due to the shorter carryover period. The Company has provided a valuation allowance against the entire balance of its net deferred tax asset due to uncertainty regarding its realization at April 30, 2005 and 2004.
The Company also has Federal and California general business credit carryforwards of approximately $867,000 and $354,000, respectively, which will begin to expire in 2006.
Pursuant to the Tax Reform Act of 1986, use of the Company’s federal business credit and net operating loss carryforwards may be limited if a cumulative change in ownership of more than 50% occurs within any three-year period.
5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
During the year ended April 30, 2005, revenues from all related party agreements for sales of products and services totaled $6.2 million. For the same period in 2004, the Company recognized revenue of $5.2 million from related parties. Included in accounts receivable at April 30, 2005 and 2004 was $113,000 and $32,000, respectively, from these customers. Descriptions of the transactions with the Company’s related parties in the years ended April 30, 2005 and 2004 are presented below.

Berjaya Lottery Management (H.K.) Ltd.
In 1996, the Company entered into an agreement to purchase specific inventory on behalf of BLM. Title to the inventory resides with BLM and is on consignment; therefore, no amounts are reflected in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets for inventory purchased on their behalf.
Over time the Company has sold or used portions of the BLM inventory in unrelated third party transactions. The sale or use of the inventory results in a liability to BLM for the cost of the items utilized.
The financial activities and balances related to BLM were as follows:
    There were no related party sales to BLM in the years ended April 30, 2005 and 2004;
 
    There were no accounts receivable balances from BLM at April 30, 2005 and 2004; and
 
    Liabilities to BLM arising from the sale or use of the BLM inventory, recorded as a “Payable to Parent,” were $190,000 and $125,000 as of April 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively.
Philippine Gaming Management Corporation

In November 2000, STM executed an agreement to purchase a complete online lottery system and software products for $8.1 million from the Company. In November 2003, additional functionalities valued at $400,000 were added to the original contract which increased the total contract value to $8.5 million.
In addition to supplying terminals and software products to STM, the Company provides terminal spare parts and software support services to STM.
The financial activities and balances related to transactions with STM were as follows:
    Revenue totaling $5.1 million was recognized on the sale of terminals, software products, spare parts and software support services during the year ended April 30, 2005.

6. LINE OF CREDIT
On April 3, 2003, a major financial institution extended a $5.5 million line of credit to the Company to be used for a specific project. This transaction specific working capital line was 90% guaranteed by the United States Export-Import Bank. The line provided for advances of 90% on accounts receivable collateralized by letters of credit in hand from the customer or 65% of inventory backed by a letter of credit. Borrowings under the line bore interest at the prime rate plus 1/2 %. The Company had granted a security interest in rights to collections and inventory as collateral.
On January 29, 2004, prior to the expiration date, the Company terminated the line of credit, because it was no longer required. The line of credit was paid off as of September 22, 2003.

9. EMPLOYEE 401(k) PLANS
The Company maintains a 401(k) plan, qualified under the Internal Revenue Code, in which all eligible employees, as defined in the Internal Revenue Code, may elect to participate. Under the Plan, employees may voluntarily make tax-deferred contributions of up to 15% of their compensation to a trust, which provides the participant with various investment alternatives. In addition, for each fiscal year, the Company, at the discretion of the Board of Directors, may contribute an amount of Company stock with a fair market value that does not exceed 5% of the annual compensation of all participants in the Plan. The Company made no contributions during the years ended April 30, 2005 or 2004. The Company also maintains another 401(k) plan in which long-tenured employees maintain accounts; however, the Company and its employees are no longer contributing to this plan.
10. STOCK OPTION PLANS
The Company has a stock option plan, The 2000 Equity Participation Plan, that was approved by the Board of Directors and shareholders, whereby options to purchase 200,000 shares of the Company’s common stock were initially authorized. The number of options authorized for grant may increase January 1 of each plan year by 3% of the total number of outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock on that date subject to the limitation that the total number of shares of common stock subject to option under all plans shall not exceed 10% of the total number of outstanding shares of common stock on that date.
During the years ended April 30, 2005 and 2004, the Company did not grant any options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock to employees or directors. At April 30, 2005, options for 854,430 shares were available for future grant.

ITEM 8A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
As required by Rule 13a-14 and Rule 15d-14 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of April 30, 2005, the end of the year covered by this report. Based on the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective for gathering, analyzing and disclosing the information the Company is required to disclose in the reports it files under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.
CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROLS OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
There have not been any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended April 30, 2005 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
We continue to document procedures and to enhance controls in our comprehensive effort to comply with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Under the latest extension, non-accelerated filers have to comply with the Section 404 provisions of the Act for the first fiscal year ending on or after July 15, 2006. As a non-accelerated filer with a fiscal year end of April 30, we must first begin to comply with the attestation requirements for the fiscal year ending April 30, 2007.
We believe that our present internal control program has been effective at a reasonable assurance level to ensure that our financial reporting has not been materially misstated. Nonetheless, over the next two years, we will continue to review, and where necessary, enhance our internal control design and documentation, ongoing risk assessment, and management review as part of our internal control program.
