See Accompanying Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements. ADVANCED MACHINE VISION CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Note 1. Principles of Consolidation - ------- --------------------------- In the opinion of the management of Advanced Machine Vision Corporation (the "Company" or "AMV"), the accompanying consolidated financial statements, which have not been audited by independent accountants (except for the balance sheet as of December 31, 1999), reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position at March 31, 2000, and December 31, 1999, the results of operations for the three-month period ended March 31, 2000 and cash flows for the three-month period ended March 31, 2000. The financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its four wholly-owned subsidiaries, Applied Laser Systems, Inc., SRC VISION, Inc. ("SRC"), ARC Netherlands BV and Ventek, Inc. ("Ventek"). The Company's current operating subsidiaries are SRC and Ventek. Certain notes and other information are condensed or omitted in the interim financial statements presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's 1999 annual report on Form 10-K. Note 2. Nature of Operations - ------- -------------------- Through its subsidiaries, the Company designs, manufactures and markets computer-aided vision defect detection and sorting and defect removal equipment for use in a variety of industries, including food processing, wood products and recycling. The Company's systems combine optical and mechanical systems technologies to perform diverse scanning, analytical sensing, measuring and sorting applications on a variety of products such as food, wood and plastic. The Company sells its products throughout the world. Note 3. Financing - ------- --------- In April 1996, the Company borrowed $3,400,000 pursuant to a convertible secured note, $900,000 of which remains outstanding at March 31, 2000. The nominal 6.75% interest rate may be adjusted upward on each anniversary date (April 13) of the note if the market price of the Company's Common Stock fails to reach certain levels. In April 2000, the interest rate was adjusted to 11.25%, the maximum permitted under the note. The note is secured by 54% of the stock of ARC Netherlands BV. The note is convertible into the Company's Common Stock at $2.125 per share. In July 1996, AMV issued the following notes in connection with the acquisition of Ventek: (i) a 6.75% $1,000,000 note due July 23, 1999; (ii) a 6.75% $2,250,000 note due July 23, 1999 convertible into the Company's Common Stock at $2.25 per share; and (iii) a $1,125,000 note and stock appreciation rights payable (a) by issuance of up to 1,800,000 shares of Common Stock or at the Company's option, in cash on July 23, 1999, or (b) solely in cash in the event AMV Common Stock is delisted from the Nasdaq Stock Market. The $1,125,000 note and stock appreciation rights payable were valued at $1,529,000 on the acquisition date based upon an independent appraisal received by the Company. All three notes are secured by all of the issued and outstanding shares of Ventek. In February 1999, the Ventek notes were restructured. $750,000 of the $1,000,000 note was prepaid. The maturity dates of the remaining $250,000 and the $2,250,000 note were extended to July 23, 2000. The $1,125,000 note was paid in full by delivery of 1,800,000 restricted shares and the stock appreciation rights were cancelled. In December 1999, the Ventek notes were again restructured by extending the due dates to July 23, 2001 and increasing the interest rate by 1% to 7.75%. As of December 31, 1999 and March 31, 2000, the Company had a borrowing facility with a commercial bank that provided for a secured operating line of credit up to $2,000,000. At the option of the Company, interest is stated at the prime rate plus .50% or at an "offshore rate" plus 2.35%. The Business Loan Agreement governing the line of credit contains covenants requiring certain levels of cash flow, tangible equity and working capital. At December 31, 1999, the Company had borrowed the entire $2,000,000 under the line and was not in compliance with the cash flow covenant. The bank waived compliance with the covenant subject to an amendment being executed by the Company, which would require that security for the line be changed from receivables, inventory and machinery and equipment to cash instruments. On February 29, 2000, the Company executed the amendment and paid back the entire amount borrowed. On April 25, 2000, the expiration date of the line was extended from April 30, 2000 to July 31, 2000. A $2.9 million mortgage note contains certain covenants and restrictions including limitations on incurrence of debt. At December 31, 1999, the Company was in violation of the cash flow covenant of the mortgage loan agreement. The Company has obtained a temporary waiver of this covenant through December 31, 2000. Note 4. Equity Transactions; Reduction in Outstanding Securities; Effect of Remaining Warrants, Options and Convertible Securities; Stock Rights Plan - ------- ----------------------------------------------------------------- In October 1998, the Company sold 119,106 shares of Mandatorily Redeemable Series B Preferred Stock ("Preferred Stock") to FMC Corporation ("FMC") for $2,620,000. The Preferred Stock is convertible into 1,191,000 shares of Common Stock, which, if converted, represents a 10% ownership position based on the number of common shares outstanding on the transaction date. Each share of Preferred Stock is allowed ten votes in matters placed before the common stockholders except in the election of directors, in which case FMC has the right to elect one director. The Preferred Stock pays no dividends. The Preferred Stock has a $22 per share liquidation preference. Upon the occurrence of a change in control (as defined), FMC has the right to require the Company to repurchase all or part of the Preferred Stock at a price in cash equal to the greater of (a) $22.00 per share or (b) the market value of the Company's Common Stock issuable upon conversation of the Preferred Stock, calculated as the average of the closing bid price of the Common Stock for the 45 consecutive trading days immediately preceding the date of repurchase, subject to the Company's ability to legally do so under California General Corporation Law. FMC also has a five-year one-time option to purchase a number of shares of Common Stock equal to 15% of the shares outstanding on the exercise date at a price equal to the greater of the then-current market value of the Common Stock (as defined) or $2.20 per share. So long as any shares of Preferred Stock are outstanding, the Company must obtain the consent of the holders of a majority of the then-outstanding shares of Preferred Stock to (i) take any action which adversely alters or changes or may adversely alter or change the rights, preferences or privileges of the Preferred Stock; (ii) increase or decrease the authorized number of shares of Preferred Stock; (iii) create (by reclassification or otherwise) any class or series of shares having rights, preferences or privileges senior to or on a parity with the Preferred Stock; (iv) redeem or repurchase any shares of capital stock except in certain instances; (v) merge with or into any other entity or enter into any other corporate reorganization, recapitalization, sale of control or any transaction that, directly or indirectly, results in the sale, license, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets or properties of the Company; (vi) sell, license, lease, transfer, convey or otherwise dispose of the Company's intellectual property in which FMC received a security interest; (vii) amend or waive any provision of the Company's Articles of Incorporation or By-laws; (viii) acquire assets or securities of another person or entity if the aggregate consideration paid in all such transactions (other than those in the ordinary course of business) combined exceeds $2,000,000 or any one such transaction exceeds $500,000; (ix) issue any additional equity securities or any other securities convertible or exchangeable into equity securities (other than issuance of shares of Common Stock pursuant to employee stock options or other employee stock plans in effect as of the FMC transaction date and, with the approval of the Board of Directors, shares of Common Stock to unrelated third parties, in arms-length transactions that do not exceed 100,000 shares for any fiscal year); or (x) approve the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company. The provisions of the preferred stock also provide that if FMC desires to transfer the preferred stock, the Company has the right of first refusal to acquire such shares. For as long as the preferred stock is outstanding, if the Company intends to issue equity securities other than to FMC, or as permitted, FMC shall have the right to acquire a portion of such securities to retain its percentage ownership immediately prior to such issuance. In January 1997, the 1997 Restricted Stock Plan ("1997 Plan") was established to retain the services of selected employees, officers and directors of the Company and provide them with strong incentives to enhance the Company's growth. The total number of shares of Common Stock issuable under the 1997 Plan shall not exceed 2,000,000. Under the 1997 Plan, there are currently 650,000 shares issued to seven key employees of the Company. The shares cannot be traded or transferred unless a payment of $.75 to $1.80 per share is made by the employee to AMV. If the payment is not made, the stock will be forfeited and returned to the Company. In January 2000, the Company purchased 42,800 shares of its Common Stock on the open market. Schedule of Outstanding Stock, Warrants and Potential Dilution: The following table summarizes, as of March 31, 2000, outstanding common stock, potential dilution to the outstanding common stock upon conversion of convertible debt or preferred stock, and proforma proceeds or debt reduction from the exercise or conversion. The table also sets forth the conversion prices and debt due dates.
Number or Principal Common Exercise or Proforma Amount Outstanding Stock After Conversion Debt Security at March 31, 2000 Conversion Price Reduction - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Outstanding Common Stock 12,927,000 Convertible Debt (due date): 6.75% Notes (4/16/01) $ 900,000 423,000 2.13 900,000 6.75% Ventek Note (7/23/01) $ 2,250,000 1,000,000 2.25 2,250,000 ------------ Convertible Preferred Stock 119,100 1,191,000 ------------ Potentially outstanding shares and proforma proceeds or reduction of debt 15,541,000 $ 3,150,000 ============ ============
The proforma amounts above are for illustrative purposes only. Unless the market price of AMV's Common Stock rises significantly above the conversion prices, it is unlikely that the debt or Preferred Stock will be converted. In addition to the FMC option described above, on March 31, 2000, AMV had outstanding options to purchase 3,164,000 shares of Common Stock, 2,632,000 of which are under its stock option plans. The existence of these outstanding options, convertible debt and preferred stock, including options that may be granted under AMV's Stock Option Plans or otherwise, could adversely affect AMV's ability to obtain future financing. The price which AMV may receive for the Common Stock issued upon exercise of options, or amount of debt forgiven in the case of conversion of debt, may be less than the market price of Common Stock at the time such options are exercised or debt is converted. For the life of the options, convertible debt and preferred stock, the holders are given, at little or no cost, the opportunity to profit from a rise in the market price of their Common Stock without assuming the risk of ownership. Moreover, the holders of the options might be expected to exercise them at a time when AMV would, in all likelihood, be able to obtain needed capital by a new offering of its securities on terms more favorable than those provided for by the options. Stock Rights Plan: In February 1998, the Company implemented a stock rights program. Pursuant to the program, stockholders of record on February 27, 1998 received a dividend of one right to purchase for $15 one one-hundredth of a share of a newly created Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock. The rights are attached to AMV's Common Stock and will also become attached to shares issued in the future. The rights will not be traded separately and will not become exercisable until the occurrence of a triggering event, defined as an accumulation by a single person or group of 20% or more of AMV's Common Stock. The rights will expire on February 26, 2008 and are redeemable at $.0001 per right. After a triggering event, the rights will detach from the Common Stock. If AMV is then merged into, or is acquired by, another corporation, the Company has the opportunity to either (i) redeem the rights or (ii) permit the rights holder to receive in the merger stock of AMV or the acquiring company equal to two times the exercise price of the right (i.e., $30). In the latter instance, the rights attached to the acquirer's stock become null and void. The effect of the rights program is to make a potential acquisition of the Company more expensive for the acquirer if, in the opinion of AMV's Board of Directors, the offer is inadequate. In December 1998, the Rights Plan was amended to permit FMC to acquire up to 1,600,000 shares of AMV Common Stock on the open market without causing a triggering event. In February 2000, the Company's Board of Directors determined that the proposed merger with Key Technology, Inc. ("Key") (see Note 7) will not constitute a triggering event. Note 5. Earnings (Loss) Per Share - ------- ------------------------- The computation of earnings (loss) per share is presented in the following tables:

The number of shares of Common Stock, along with their respective exercise prices, underlying options, warrants, convertible debt and preferred stock, which were excluded from the computation of diluted EPS because their exercise prices were greater than the average market price of common stock or inclusion of such shares would be antidilutive, are listed below. March 31, ----------------------------- 2000 1999 ------------- ------------- Number of shares of common stock exercisable from: Options 3,164,000 3,253,000 Warrants -- 300,000 Convertible debt 1,424,000 1,424,000 Preferred stock 1,191,000 1,191,000 ------------- ------------- 5,779,000 6,168,000 Exercise price ranges $0.81 - $3.00 $1.00 - $3.00 Note 6.

Possible Sale of the Company - ------- ---------------------------- On February 15, 2000, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with Key, whereby the Company would be acquired by Key. Key is a public company and its stock is traded on the Nasdaq National Market under the symbol "KTEC." Pursuant to the agreement, Key would pay the following for each Company common share: a. Cash of $1.00. b. 1/10 of a new share of Key convertible preferred stock that can be sold back to Key after two years for the equivalent of $1.00. c. 1/40 of a new warrant to purchase a share of Key common stock that can be sold back to Key immediately for the equivalent of $.25. The agreement specifies other terms, conditions, representations and warranties for each party. Completion of the transaction is contingent upon approval of the Company's common stockholders and FMC, the holder of all the Company's Preferred Stock. On April 24, 2000, FMC reached an agreement with the Company and Key to vote for the merger. As part of the acquisition process, a Form S-4 registration statement has been filed by Key with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Completion of the transaction, which is subject to SEC and other approvals as indicated above, is expected by July 2000. Reference is made to the Company's recent filings with the SEC for a more complete description of the transaction. Note 8. New Accounting Pronouncements - ------- ----------------------------- In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. SFAS 133 establishes new accounting treatment for derivatives and hedging activities and supercedes and amends a number of existing accounting standards. For the Company, this pronouncement, as amended by SFAS 137, will be effective in 2001 and is not anticipated to have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements. In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101 ("SAB 101"), Revenue Recognition, which provides guidance on the recognition, presentation and disclosure of revenue in financial statements filed with the SEC. SAB 101 outlines the basic criteria that must be met to recognize revenue and provides guidance for disclosures related to revenue recognition policies. The Company believes that the impact of SAB 101 will not have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements. Note 9. Subsequent Event - ------- ---------------- In May 2000, the Company entered into an agreement to sell its minority investment in SourceNet Corporation, an early-stage communications company, for approximately $1.6 million, which will generate a $1.3 million gain. Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - ------- --------------------------------------------------------------- The Company's backlog at March 31, 2000 was $4,102,000 compared to $5,645,000 as of March 31, 1999. Results of Operations - Comparison between three months ended March 31, 2000 and March 31, 1999 - -------------- Sales for the three months ended March 31, 2000 ("Q1 2000") were $5,388,000, up 4% when compared to sales for the three months ended March 31, 1999 ("Q1 1999") of $5,158,000. The $230,000 increase in sales is primarily due to increased sales relating to veneer processing applications. Gross profit decreased by $88,000 to $2,566,000 in Q1 2000 when compared to $2,654,000 of gross profit in Q1 1999. Gross profit as a percentage of sales was 48% in Q1 2000 and 51% in Q1 1999. The decrease in gross profit as a percentage of sales is due to a change in the product mix sold to lower margin products and discounts granted with the introduction of new products. Selling and marketing expense increased by $475,000 in Q1 2000 from Q1 1999 to $1,422,000 amounting to 26% of sales in Q1 2000. Similar expenses in Q1 1999 were $947,000, or 18% of sales. The increase in selling and marketing expenses in terms of both the dollar amount and as a percentage of sales is due to an increase in marketing activities associated with the introduction of new products and the penetration of new geographical areas. Research and development expenses were $1,253,000 and $1,260,000 in Q1 2000 and Q1 1999, or 23% and 24% of sales, respectively. General and administrative expenses increased $397,000 to $1,191,000 in Q1 2000 from $794,000 in Q1 1999. The increase is primarily a result of $180,000 of legal fees related to the possible merger with Key and $150,000 of stock compensation expense. The stock compensation expense was recorded pursuant to 300,000 variable plan options granted to certain directors. The market price of the Company's common stock exceeded the exercise price of these options at March 31, 2000. The net loss for Q1 2000 was $1,589,000 as compared to net loss of $576,000 in Q1 1999. Liquidity and Capital Resources - ------------------------------- The Company's cash balance and working capital were $2,298,000 and $9,656,000, respectively, at March 31, 2000 as compared to $5,889,000 and $10,941,000, respectively, at December 31, 1999. During Q1 2000, net cash used in operating activities totaled $1,456,000 compared to cash used for operating activities of $585,000 in Q1 1999. The Q1 2000 usage was due to the net loss and increases in receivables and inventories. The Q1 1999 usage was due to the net loss and increase in inventory. Cash used in investment activities totaled $55,000 in Q1 2000 compared to cash used in investment activities of $22,000 in Q1 1999. The Company has no material commitments for capital expenditures at March 31, 2000. Cash used in financing activities totaled $2,060,000 in Q1 2000 as compared to cash used in financing activities of $759,000 in Q1 1999. In January 2000, the Company purchased 42,800 shares of its common stock for $50,000 on the open market. In February 2000, the Company repaid the $2,000,000 outstanding under its line of credit. In February 1999, the Company paid $750,000 of a $1,000,000 note and issued 1,800,000 shares of Class A Common Stock in payment of a $1,529,000 note as part of the Ventek debt restructuring. In October 1998, the Company received $2,620,000 from FMC Corporation for 119,106 shares of newly issued Series B Preferred Stock (see Note 4 to Consolidated Financial Statements). In April 1999, the Company entered into a Business Loan Agreement providing up to $2,500,000 of working capital financing (see Note 3 to Consolidated Financial Statements). Management believes that the Company has sufficient cash to enable the Company to sustain its operations and to adequately fund the cash flow expected to be used in operating activities for the next twelve months. Cautionary Statements and Risk Factors - -------------------------------------- In our capacity as Company management, we may from time to time make written or oral forward-looking statements with respect to our long-term objectives or expectations which may be included in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, reports to stockholders and information provided in our web site. The words or phrases "will likely," "are expected to," "is anticipated," "is predicted," "forecast," "estimate," "project," "plans to continue," "believes," or similar expressions identify "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical earnings and those presently anticipated or projected. We wish to caution you not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. In connection with the "Safe Harbor" provisions on the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, we are calling to your attention important factors that could affect our financial performance and could cause actual results for future periods to differ materially from any opinions or statements expressed with respect to future periods in any current statements. The following list of important factors may not be all inclusive, and we specifically decline to undertake any obligation to publicly revise any forward-looking statements that have been made to reflect events or circumstances after the date of such statements or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events. Among the factors that could have an impact on our ability to achieve expected operating results and growth plan goals and/or affect the market price of our stock are: * A history of losses and negative cash flow. * Fluctuations in quarterly operating results and seasonality in certain of our markets. * Rapid technological change in our markets and the need for new product development. * Market acceptance of our new products. * Our dependence on certain markets and the need to expand into new markets. * The lengthy sales cycle for our products. * Our highly competitive marketplace. * The dependence on certain suppliers. * The risks associated with dependence upon significant customers and reliance on certain distribution channels. * The risks associated with international sales. * The uncertain ability to manage growth and integrate acquired businesses. * Dependence upon key personnel. * Our ability to protect our intellectual property. * The possibility of product liability or other legal claims. * Exposure to possible warranty and litigation claims. * The possible need for additional financing. * The impact of the 1998 Shareholder Rights Plan. * The planned merger with Key Technology, Inc. * Our inability or our suppliers' or customers' inabilities to remedy potential problems with information systems related to the arrival of the year 2000. These risk factors are discussed in further detail below. History of Losses; Negative Cash Flow: Prior to 1995 and in 1996 and in certain fiscal quarters thereafter, we experienced losses and negative operating cash flow. We believe that we may operate at a negative cash flow for certain periods in the future due to (a) the need to fund certain development projects, (b) cash required to enter new market areas, (c) irregular bookings by customers due to seasonality or economic downturns in some markets and the relatively high per-unit cost of our products which may cause fluctuations in quarterly or yearly revenues, and (d) cash required for the repayment of debt, especially $3.4 million due in 2001. If we are unable to consistently generate sustained positive cash flow from operations, we must rely on debt or equity financing. Although we achieved profitability in 1997 and 1998, there can be no assurance as to future profitability on a quarterly or annual basis. Fluctuations in Quarterly Operating Results; Seasonality: We have experienced and may in the future experience significant fluctuations in revenues and operating results from quarter to quarter as a result of a number of factors, many of which are outside our control. These factors include the timing of significant orders and shipments, product mix, delays in shipment, capital spending patterns of customers, competition and pricing, new product introductions by us or our competitors, the timing of research and development expenditures, expansion of marketing and support operations, changes in material costs, production or quality problems, currency fluctuations, disruptions in sources of supply, regulatory changes and general economic conditions. These factors are difficult to forecast, and these or other factors could have a material adverse effect on our business and operating results. Moreover, due to the relatively fixed nature of many of our costs, including personnel and facilities costs, we would not be able to reduce costs in any quarter to compensate for any unexpected shortfall in net sales, and such a shortfall would have a proportionately greater impact on our results of operations for that quarter. For example, a significant portion of our quarterly net sales depends upon sales of a relatively small number of high-priced systems. Thus, changes in the number of systems shipped in any given quarter can produce substantial fluctuations in net sales, gross profits, and net income from quarter to quarter. In addition, in the event our machine vision systems' average selling price changes, the addition or cancellation of sales may exacerbate quarterly fluctuations in revenues and operating results. Our operating results may also be affected by certain seasonal trends. For example, we may experience lower sales and order levels in the first quarter when compared with the preceding fourth quarter due to the seasonality of certain harvested food items and the timing of annual or semi-annual customer plant shut-downs during which systems are installed. We expect these patterns to continue. Rapid Technological Change; Product Development: The markets for our machine vision products are characterized by rapidly changing technology, evolving industry standards and frequent new product introductions and enhancements. For example, we believe that the 1995 introduction by Key Technology, Inc. of its new line of vision sorting equipment adversely affected our bookings in late 1995 and 1996. Sales of our products depend in part on the continuing development and deployment of new technology and services and applications. Our success will depend to a significant extent upon our ability to enhance existing products and develop new products that gain market acceptance. We cannot be sure that we will be successful in selecting, developing and manufacturing new products or enhancing existing products on a timely or cost-effective basis or that products or technologies developed by others will not render our products non-competitive or obsolete. Moreover, we may encounter technical problems in connection with product development that could result in the delayed introduction of new products or product enhancements. Market Acceptance of New Products: Our future operating results will depend upon our ability to successfully introduce and market, on a timely and cost-effective basis, new products and enhancements to existing products. We are currently marketing a new generation of high-speed software and digital signal processing technology designed to significantly improve system performance. In 1998 and 1999, we placed machines incorporating the new technology at several customer locations as trial units. While some of these systems have been converted to sales, ultimate success will depend upon completion of product development and further acceptance by the customers. We cannot be sure that a market for these systems will develop (i.e., that a need for the system will exist, that the system will be favored over other products on the market, etc.). Dependence on Certain Markets and Expansion Into New Markets: Our future success and growth depends upon continuing sales in domestic and international food processing markets as well as successful penetration of other existing and potential markets. A substantial portion of our historical sales has been in the potato and other vegetable processing markets. Reductions in capital equipment expenditures by such processors due to commodity surpluses, product price fluctuations, changing consumer preferences, longer product evaluation periods or other factors could have an adverse effect on our results of operations. We also intend to expand the marketing of our processing systems in additional food markets such as meat and granular food products, as well as non-food markets such as plastics, wood products and tobacco, and to expand our sales activities in foreign markets. In the case of Ventek, the wood products market served is narrow and cyclical, and saturation of that market and the potential inability to identify and develop new markets could adversely affect our growth rate. We may not be able to successfully penetrate additional food and non-food markets or expand further in foreign markets. Lengthy Sales Cycle: The marketing and sales cycle for our machine vision systems, especially in new markets or in a new application, is lengthy and can be as long as three years. Even in existing markets, due to the $150,000 to $600,000 price for each system and possibly significant ancillary costs required for a customer to install the system, the purchase of a machine vision system can constitute a substantial capital investment for a customer (which may need more than one machine for its particular proposed application) requiring lengthy consideration and evaluation. In particular, a potential customer must develop a high degree of assurance that the product will meet its needs, successfully interface with the customer's own manufacturing, production or processing system, and have minimal warranty, safety and service problems. Accordingly, the time lag from initiation of marketing efforts to final sales can be lengthy. Competition: The markets for our products are highly competitive. Information prepared by the Automated Imaging Association indicates that the North American machine vision market was approximately $1.3 billion in 1998. While we do not compete in all aspects of this market, the food and wood products segments are served by approximately 35 companies, many of which are larger and may have significantly greater financial, technical and marketing resources than the Company. For example, Elbicon and Pulsarr are owned by Barco NV of Belgium, a $700 million sales company. Other competitors include Oldenburg, Allen Machinery, Sortex/Buhler, ESM/Stake and Key. Several years ago, Key, a major competitor, introduced a new optical sorter product that has increased the competition that we face. In the case of Ventek, the wood industry continues to develop alternative products to plywood (e.g., oriented strand board) which do not require vision systems for quality control. Some of our competitors may have substantially greater financial, technical, marketing and other resources than we have. Important competitive factors in our markets include price, performance, reliability, customer support and service. Although we believe that we currently compete effectively with respect to these factors, we may not be able to compete effectively in the future. Dependence Upon Certain Suppliers: Certain key components and subassemblies used in our products are currently obtained from sole sources or a limited group of suppliers, and we do not have any long-term supply agreements to ensure an uninterrupted supply of these components. Although we seek to reduce dependence on sole or limited source suppliers, the inability to obtain sufficient sole or limited source components as required, or to develop alternative sources if and as required, could result in delays or reductions in product shipments which could materially and adversely affect our results of operations and damage customer relationships. The purchase of certain of the components used in our products require an eight- to twelve-week lead time for delivery. An unanticipated shortage of such components could delay our ability to timely manufacture units, damage customer relations, and have a material adverse effect on us. In addition, a significant increase in the price of one or more of these components or subassemblies could negatively affect our results of operations. Dependence Upon Significant Customers and Distribution Channel: We sold equipment to two unaffiliated customers in 1999 totaling 13% of sales each, to an unaffiliated customer totaling 14% of sales in 1997 and to two unaffiliated customers totaling 13% and 12% of sales in 1996. Ventek's sales have been to a relatively small number of multi-location plywood manufacturers. In the emerging pulp wood industry, we utilize a single exclusive distributor for our products in North America. In 1998, FMC Corporation became our exclusive or non-exclusive sales representative in much of the United States and in many areas in the rest of the world. While we strive to create long-term relationships with our customers, distributors and representatives, there can be no assurance that they will continue ordering or selling additional systems. We may continue to be dependent on a small number of customers, distributors and representatives, the loss of which would adversely affect our business. Risk of International Sales: Due to our export sales, we are subject to the risks of conducting business internationally, including unexpected changes in regulatory requirements; fluctuations in the value of the U. S. dollar which could increase the sales prices in local currencies of our products in international markets; delays in obtaining export licenses, tariffs and other barriers and restrictions; and the burdens of complying with a variety of international laws. For example, the possibility of sales to Indonesian customers was adversely affected by that country's currency devaluation when compared to the U. S. dollar over the past few years. In addition, the laws of certain foreign countries may not protect our intellectual property rights to the same extent as do the laws of the United States. Uncertain Ability to Manage Growth and Integrate Acquired Businesses: As part of our business strategy, we intend to pursue rapid growth. In March and July 1996, we acquired Pulsarr and Ventek. Pulsarr was subsequently sold in May 1997. A growth strategy involving the integration of new entities may require the establishment of additional sales representative and distribution relationships, expanded customer service and support, increased personnel throughout the Company and the continued implementation and improvement of our operational, financial and management information systems. We may be unable to attract qualified personnel or to accomplish other measures necessary for successful integration of entities that may be acquired in the future or for internal growth, and we may be unable to successfully manage expanded operations. As we expand, we may from time to time experience constraints that will adversely affect our ability to satisfy customer demand in a timely fashion. Failure to manage growth effectively could negatively affect our financial condition and results of operations. Dependence Upon Key Personnel: Our success depends to a significant extent upon the continuing contributions of key management, technical, sales and marketing and other key personnel. Except for William J. Young, our President and Chief Executive Officer, Alan R. Steel, our Chief Financial Officer, Dr. James Ewan, SRC's President and Chief Executive Officer, and the four former stockholders of Ventek, we do not have long-term employment agreements or other arrangements with employees which would encourage them to remain with the Company. Our future success also depends upon our ability to attract and retain additional skilled personnel. Competition for such employees is intense. The loss of any current key employees or the inability to attract and retain additional key personnel could have a material adverse effect on our business and operating results. Intellectual Property: Our competitive position may be affected by our ability to protect proprietary technology. Although we have a number of United States and foreign patents, such patents may not provide meaningful protection for our product innovations. We may experience additional intellectual property risks in international markets where we may lack patent protection. Numerous users of the Company's products have received notice of patent infringement from the Lemelson Medical, Educational & Research Foundation, Limited Partnership ("Lemelson") alleging that their use of the Company's products infringes certain patents transferred to Lemelson by the late Jerome H. Lemelson. Certain of these users have notified the Company that, in the event it is subsequently determined that their use of the Company's products infringes any of the Partnership's patents, they may seek indemnification from the Company for damages or expenses resulting from this matter. We cannot estimate the amount of liability, if any, that may result from this matter. Product Liability and Other Legal Claims: From time to time, we may be involved in litigation arising out of the normal course of business, including product liability, patent and other legal claims. While we have a general liability insurance policy which includes product liability coverage up to an aggregate amount of $10 million, we may not be able to maintain product liability insurance on acceptable terms in the future. Litigation, regardless of its outcome, could result in substantial cost and diversion of effort. Any infringement claims or litigation against us could materially and adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition. If a substantial product liability or other legal claim against us was sustained that was not covered by insurance, there could be an adverse effect on our financial condition and marketability of the affected products. Warranty Exposure and Performance Specifications: We generally provide a one-year limited warranty on our products. In addition, for certain custom-designed systems, we contract to meet certain performance specifications. In the past, we have incurred higher warranty expenses related to new products than we typically incur with established products. We may incur substantial warranty expenses in the future with respect to new products, as well as established products, or with respect to our obligations to meet performance specifications, which may have an adverse effect on our results of operations and customer relationships. Possible Need for Additional Financing: We may seek additional financing; however, we may not be able to obtain additional financing on terms satisfactory to us, if at all. Potential increases in the number of outstanding shares of our Common Stock due to convertible debt and preferred stock and stock options, substantial losses in 1996 and 1999 and debt due in 2001, may limit our ability to negotiate additional debt or equity financing. Shareholder Rights Plan: In February 1998, we implemented a stock rights program. Pursuant to the program, stockholders of record on February 27, 1998 received a dividend of one right to purchase for $15 one one-hundredth of a share of a newly created Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock. The rights are attached to our Common Stock and will also become attached to shares issued in the future. The rights will not be traded separately and will not become exercisable until the occurrence of a triggering event, defined as an accumulation by a single person or group of 20% or more of our Common Stock. The rights will expire on February 26, 2008 and are redeemable at $.0001 per right. After a triggering event, the rights will detach from the Common Stock. If AMV is then merged into, or is acquired by, another corporation, we have the opportunity to either (a) redeem the rights or (b) permit the rights holder to receive in the merger stock of AMV or the acquiring company equal to two times the exercise price of the right (i.e., $30). In the latter instance, the rights attached to the acquirer's stock become null and void. The effect of the rights program is to make a potential acquisition of the Company more expensive for the acquirer if, in the opinion of our Board of Directors, the offer is inadequate. In October 1998, FMC acquired 119,106 shares of our Series B Preferred Stock, which, if converted into Common Stock in accordance with its terms, represented a 10% ownership position in the Company on that date. FMC also received a five-year option to acquire 15% of our outstanding Common Stock on the date of exercise. While FMC's resulting beneficial ownership exceeds 20%, the transaction was not a triggering event as defined in the Stock Rights Plan since FMC acquired the shares directly from the Company. In December 1998, we amended the Shareholder Rights Plan to permit FMC to purchase on the open market up to 1,600,000 shares of Common Stock without such purchase being a triggering event. In February 2000, the Company's Board of Directors determined that the merger with Key will not be a triggering event. Planned Merger with Key Technology, Inc.: In February 2000, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with Key whereby the Company would be acquired by Key. The transaction is subject to the approval of FMC, holder of the Company's Series B Preferred Stock, and AMV's common stockholders, as well as certain other conditions. On April 24, 2000, FMC agreed to vote in favor of the merger. If the merger is not completed for any reason, the Company may be subject to a number of material risks, including the following: * The Company may be required under certain circumstances to pay Key a termination fee of $500,000 or $2,000,000; * The price of the Company's Common Stock may decline to the extent that the relevant current market price reflects a market assumption that the merger will be completed; * Costs related to the merger, such as legal, accounting and financial advisor fees, must be paid even if the merger is not completed. * Key will have obtained sufficient information about the Company to possibly create a competitive advantage. In addition, the Company's customers, strategic partners or suppliers, in response to the announcement of the merger, may delay or defer decisions concerning the Company. Any delay or deferral of those decisions by customers, strategic partners or suppliers could have a material adverse effect on the business of the Company, regardless if whether the merger is ultimately completed. Similarly, current and prospective AMV employees may experience uncertainty about their future roles as Key's plans with regard to these employees are announced or executed. This may adversely affect the Company's ability to attract and retain key management, sales, marketing and technical personnel. Further, if the merger is terminated, and the Company's Board of Directors determines to seek another merger or business combination, there can be no assurance that it will be able to find a partner willing to pay an equivalent or more attractive price than the price to be paid in the merger. In addition, while the merger agreement is in effect and subject to very narrowly defined exceptions, AMV is prohibited from soliciting, initiating or encouraging or entering into certain transactions, such as a merger, sale of assets or other business combination, with any party other than Key.
