DATAKEY, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

GENERAL

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly Datakey’s financial position as of September 28, 2002, and December 31, 2001, and results of its operations and cash flows for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 28, 2002, and September 29, 2001. The adjustments that have been made are of a normal recurring nature.

The accounting policies followed by the Company are set forth in Note 1 to the Company’s financial statements in the 2001 Datakey, Inc. Annual Report and in Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2001.

INVENTORY AND RECEIVABLE RESERVES

During the nine-month period ended September 28, 2002 the Company added approximately $82,000 to the reserve for inventory obsolescence and approximately $27,000 to the reserve for doubtful accounts. An assessment of the age and market value of inventory items revealed that a certain portion of the products had been replaced by newer models and the ultimate value was greatly diminished, suggesting that an additional charge for obsolete inventory was warranted. The addition to the reserve for doubtful accounts was in connection to a potential write off of an account from a foreign reseller whose collectibility is uncertain.

OPERATING SEGMENTS

Through July 31, 2001, the Company had two reportable segments: Electronic Products (EP) and Information Security Solutions (ISS). As discussed in the following notes, the EP segment has been shown as discontinued operations beginning in December 2000. The Electronic Products segment produced and marketed proprietary memory keys, cards, and custom-shaped tokens and systems that utilize these products that serve as a convenient way to carry electronic information. The assets related to the ongoing business of the EP business segment were sold in August 2001. The Information Security Solutions segment produces and markets products for the information security market, which enable user identification and authentication, secure data exchange, and information validation.

The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. There are no inter-segment transactions. The Company evaluates performance based on operating earnings of the respective segments.

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

In February 2001 the Company’s Board of Directors approved management’s plan to discontinue the operations of the EP segment. The plan anticipated the phase down of the operations through December 31, 2001, although the Company continued to pursue the possibility of selling the operations. (See “Sale of Discontinued Business Segment”).

The estimated loss, taken in 2000, on the phase down of the EP segment included the write-off of inventory, patents, and equipment anticipated to remain at the date of closedown and expenses associated with the phase down, net of estimated operating income through that date. The phase down of the segment was accounted for as discontinued operations and, accordingly, its net assets and net liabilities have been segregated from continuing operations in the balance sheets and the results of operations have been excluded from continuing operations for all periods presented. Net assets of the EP segment as of September 28, 2002 and December 31, 2001 are as follows:

                 
    Sep. 28, 2002     Dec. 31, 2001  
   
   
 
Trade receivables
  $ 0     $ 82,077  
Net assets from discontinued operations
  $ 0     $ 82,077  
 
 
   
 

SALE OF DISCONTINUED BUSINESS SEGMENT

On August 3, 2001, the Company completed the sale of the EP business segment fixed assets, inventory, patents and prepaid expense along with customer lists, assignment of certain customer contracts and all intellectual property required to operate the EP business segment. The Company retained certain customer contracts, and all EP accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expense as of July 31, 2001. The Company received $550,000 in cash on the date of closing, and recorded the cash difference between accounts receivable and accounts payable and accrued expense and profit on the customer contracts retained. Due to the nature of the transaction, the Company recorded a loss of $492,000 during the year ended December 31, 2001 from the disposal of discontinued operations because the loss on disposal of the selected assets and the loss from discontinued operations exceeded the $1,281,000 reserve that was established for these losses in 2000.

Under terms of the primary contract retained upon sale of the EP segment, the customer was required to provide certain components that are necessary to complete the manufacture and shipment of the final product, provide necessary test fixtures and must also approve the final test results prior to shipping the product. Due to a delay in delivery of the customer provided materials and a delay in providing the necessary test fixtures, the completion date of the contract extended beyond the date that was initially expected at the time the EP segment was sold.

During the second quarter of 2002 the Company completed the final delivery under the contract retained at the time of sale of the EP segment and realized a profit of $361,767. This amount was reflected on the Income Statement as gain on disposition of discontinued operation. This completed the sale of the EP segment and no further gain or loss from discontinued operations is expected.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
CONTINUING OPERATIONS

REVENUE

ISS revenue for the three-month period ended September 28, 2002, decreased by $1,327,000, or 49 percent, as compared to the same period in 2001. Revenue in the nine-month period ended September 28, 2002, increased by $684,000, or 14 percent, over the comparable period in 2001. The significant decrease in revenue in the three-month period resulted from delays in our customers’ production delivery schedules created by the slowdown in IT spending and budgetary issues. The increase in revenue in the nine-month period resulted from increasing acceptance of and demand for the Company’s smart token based information security products.

GROSS PROFIT MARGIN

Gross profit, as a percentage of revenue, increased to 60 percent in the three-month period ended September 28, 2002, from 56 percent in the three-month period ended September 29, 2001. The gross profit decreased to 50 percent from 56 percent when comparing the nine-month period of 2002 to that of 2001. The increase in gross profit percentage in the three-month period related primarily to a favorable product mix during the quarter. The reduction in percentage in the nine-month period was primarily due to a significant portion of the first quarter 2002 revenue consisting of USB tokens that are re-sold by Datakey and carry a much lower margin than Datakey’s standard products. The gross margin percentage for the balance of 2002 is expected to remain in the mid to high 50 percent range as the Company expects to ship products with more software content and works to reduce the cost of products that are expected to be re-sold.

OPERATING EXPENSES

Operating expenses decreased by $144,000 in the three-month period ended September 28, 2002, and decreased by $180,000 in the nine-month period, as management continued to control discretionary spending. Operating expenses during the balance of 2002 are expected to increase modestly.

Interest income, net of interest expense, decreased to $13,000 from $23,000 in the three-month period and decreased to $37,000 from $64,000 in the nine-month period, reflecting a lower rate of interest. Interest income is expected to decrease slightly over the balance of the year due to an expected decrease in cash.

OUTLOOK

There is evidence of a worldwide slowdown in IT spending in the commercial market as well as in the government market which has resulted in a stretching-out of our customers’ production delivery schedules. This “stretching out” of delivery schedules was first observed during the first quarter and continued in recent months to a greater extent than we thought would occur only a few months ago, and we are uncertain as to when more traditional delivery schedules will resume. Accordingly, we are revising our revenue guidance for the year to a range between $7 million and $8 million, and we will not be profitable in the fourth quarter of 2002.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
(Also See “Sale of Discontinued Business Segment” In Notes to Financial Statements)

REVENUE

Revenue from discontinued operations in the nine-month period ended September 28, 2002 was $852,000, compared to $2,368,000 during the same period in 2001. The majority of the discontinued business was sold in August 2001. The Company completed the final delivery under the final contract retained upon sale of the discontinued operation during the second quarter and will not report any revenue from discontinued operations going forward.

OPERATING INCOME AND LOSS

Discontinued operations reflected a gain of $351,000 in the nine-month period ended September 28, 2002. The Company does not expect to report any additional gain or loss from the sale of the EP business segment in the future.

LIQUIDITY AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

The Company experienced a decrease in cash of $406,000 in the three-month period ended September 28, 2002 and a decrease in cash of $837,000 in the nine-month period. The decrease in cash during the nine-month period ended September 28, 2002 related to the operating loss and an increase in inventory. This decrease was offset by a $669,000 decrease in trade receivables and $346,000 in proceeds received from the sale of common stock upon the exercise of certain warrants and pursuant to the employee stock purchase plan during the first quarter. The statements of cash flows include discontinued operations as well as continuing operations in the periods presented.

Accounts receivable declined $669,000 during the nine-month period ended September 28, 2002 primarily as a result of lower revenue in the quarter ended September 28, 2002. Accounts payable, likewise, declined $138,000 during the nine-month period as a result of a reduction in inventory purchases in the quarter ended September 28, 2002. Inventory increased by $93,000 during the nine-month period ended September 28, 2002 as the Company acquired additional parts and finished goods in preparation for an expected increase in revenue during the second half of 2002 which did not materialize.

Deferred revenue decreased $243,000 during the nine-month period ended September 28, 2002 as the amortization of deferred revenue during the nine-month period exceeded the additional deferred revenue booked. Deferred revenue consists of extended maintenance contracts from which the Company typically receives a percentage of revenue from the sale of products, and are amortized over the term of the contracts.

Datakey’s balance sheet reflects $4,683,000 in working capital as of September 28, 2002 and a current assets to current liabilities ratio of 4.7 to 1. The Company believes that its current level of cash will provide sufficient liquidity to fund operations for at least the next twelve months.

CONTRACTUAL CASH OBLIGATIONS

The Company presently has no long-term debt outstanding and its only contractual cash obligations are those from operating lease obligations. These lease obligations total $571,000 as shown below:

                 
2002
  $ 81,000  (remaining three months)
2003
    307,000          
*2004
    154,000          
thereafter
    29,000          
 
*The lease on the Company’s primary facility expires June 30, 2004.

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS AND RISK FACTORS

The Management’s Discussion and Analysis contains certain forward-looking statements including that: (i) annual revenues in 2002 will range between $7 million and $8 million; (ii) gross margins will range between 55 and 60 percent; and (iii) the Company will have sufficient financial resources to fund its operations for at least 12 months. These statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties which may cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. These risks and uncertainties include that: (i) market acceptance and demand for the Company’s information security products may not increase at the rate expected or may decrease due to economic, competitive or other market conditions; (ii) that the Company’s sales may continue to be negatively impacted, and perhaps to a greater extent, due to the overall slowdown in the Information Technology market; (iii) that the Company’s sales may not continue to reflect a favorable product mix seen in the past quarter, and the Company’s expected sales of products with more software content may not materialize depending on the actual demand and timing of its customers; and (iv) the Company’s overall funding depends on actual sales given the state of the economy as well as its ability to effectively control expenses.

ITEM 3. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

In response to recent legislation and additional requirements, we reviewed our internal control structure and our disclosure controls and procedures. As a result of such review we implemented changes primarily to formalize and document the procedures. We have designed our disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that material information related to Datakey is made known to our principal executive officer and principal financial officer on a regular basis, in particular during the period in which the quarterly reports are being prepared. As required, we will evaluate the effectiveness of these disclosure controls and procedures on a quarterly basis, and did so on October 16, 2002, a date within 90 days prior to the filing of this quarterly report. We believe as of that date, such controls and procedures are operating effectively as designed.

We presented the results of our most recent evaluation to our independent auditors, McGladrey & Pullen, and the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors. Based on such evaluation, the Company’s management concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are adequate to ensure the clarity and material completeness of the Company’s disclosure in its periodic reports required to be filed with the SEC and there are no significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in the design or operation of internal controls which could significantly affect our ability to record, process, summarize and report financial data.
