Transitional Small Business Disclosure Format (check one): Yes |_|; No |X| PART I ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS BCAM International Inc. (formerly Biomechanics Corporation of America prior to a name change effected June 22, 1995), was organized in 1984 under the laws of the State of New York. GENERAL BCAM International, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") has historically been a software technology and consulting company, specializing in providing ergonomic solutions (human factors engineering) to individuals, major corporations and government. On September 22, 1997, the Company acquired Drew Shoe Corporation ("Drew Shoe"), a designer, marketer, manufacturer and distributor of medical footwear. Drew Shoe had annual revenues of approximately $15.1 million in 1997 and $14.6 million in 1996 and has been in business for approximately 125 years. Drew Shoe provides the Company with ongoing revenue, as well as potential new product opportunities through utilization of Company technology (both existing and under development) into Drew Shoe products and a platform for further possible acquisition of medical footwear and related businesses. The Company's revenues have historically been derived primarily from ergonomic consulting services. In December 1997 the Board of Directors of the Company decided to sell the operations of the ergonomic consulting services business due to the inability of that business to generate operating profits for the Company. In late February 1998, the Board of Directors of the Company decided to seek alternative value for the operations of the HumanCAD Systems division as a result of the unavailability of financing, on acceptable terms to the Company, to further the necessary development activities of that division on a basis which would enhance shareholder value. Since the acquisition of Drew Shoe, the Company's revenues in the near term are expected to be derived principally from the medical footwear business and related industries. The Company's strategic focus is on building its presence in the medical footwear and related industries and on broadening and strengthening the development and commercialization of the Company's Intelligent Surface Technology ("IST") and its proprietary "microvalve". Because of the significance of Drew Shoe's operations to the ongoing operations of the Company, Drew Shoe is considered a "predecessor" of the Company in the accompanying financial statements. On September 9, 1997, the Company announced that the 1998 Cadillac STS would offer, as an option, a driver and passenger seat utilizing the Company's IST technology through a license agreement with McCord Winn Textron, Inc., a subsidiary of Textron, Inc. The Company's principal subsidiaries consist of Drew Shoe Corporation (medical footwear), BCAM Technologies, Inc. (principally IST and related technologies), BCA Services, Inc. (principally human ergonomics consulting which has been sold), HumanCAD Systems, Inc. (principally software development and marketing which operations have been reduced substantially while the Company seeks a strategic alternative for that business). The Company is a now a medical footwear and technology company with a focus on: (i) building its presence in medical footwear and related industries through internal growth and planned acquisitions, (ii) accelerating the development and commercialization of the Company's Intelligent Surface Technology ("IST") and (iii) developing new technologies including its proprietary "microvalve." The Company has collaborative research and development relationships with the State University of New York at Stony Brook and with MCNC which provide valuable resources in strengthening the Company's technologies. The Company anticipates that its business plan will be enhanced, subject to the availability of capital, by the acquisition of additional operating businesses in the medical footwear and related businesses and by the further development, subject to availability of capital, and commercialization of IST and "microvalve". The Company hopes, over time, to incorporate its IST and "microvalve" technology into intelligent medical footwear and other products. Each of the Company's present and other businesses is described below. (I) DREW SHOE CORPORATION Drew Shoe is a designer, manufacturer, marketer and distributor of medical footwear headquartered in Lancaster, Ohio. Drew has a 60,000 square foot manufacturing and a 40,000 square foot distribution, executive office and manufacturing facility in Lancaster, Ohio. Additionally, Drew operates approximately 15 Retail medical footwear stores in various areas of the United States. Drew Shoe had annual revenues of approximately $15.1 million in 1997 and $14.6 million in 1996. Drew relies on its own retail stores for distribution (approximately 25%), sales to approximately 2,000 specialty retail stores, diabetic, prosthetic and pedorthic facilities and sales to the Veterans Administration (approximately 11%). Revenues from the wholesale division were approximately 75% in each of 1997 and 1996. Drew has been in business for over 125 years and was primarily a comfort shoe manufacturer and distributor until 1992, when it shifted its focus to medical footwear. Medical footwear had been a small portion of the Company's business prior to 1992. Approximately 60% or more of Drew Shoe's sales are of women's shoes. The Company intends to continue to operate Drew Shoe as a manufacturer of medical footwear. The Company believes that the industry in which Drew Shoe operates is highly fragmented, has several relatively small competitors and represents an opportunity for consolidation within the industry. Further, the Company believes that related industries such as custom orthotics and other comfort products may be a good synergistic fit for the Company and that such companies may also represent an opportunity for consolidation. In addition to the opportunities which may exist in the consolidation of medical footwear, orthotic and related industries, the Company believes that it brings important "comfort" technology which may have application in medical footwear and related products. As such, Drew Shoe provides the Company with ongoing revenue, as well as potential opportunities through (i) a platform for possible further acquisitions of medical footwear and related businesses (ii) profit and systems improvement opportunities and (iii) the possible utilization of Company technology (both existing and under development) in medical footwear, orthotic and other products. Since the acquisition of Drew Shoe, the Company's revenues in the near term are expected to be largely affected by the medical footwear business however, the operations of Drew Shoe alone are not sufficient to turn the Company profitable in the immediate future. The Company has financed the acquisition of Drew Shoe with convertible notes that will add significant cash and non-cash charges for interest and financing. (See Recent sales of unregistered securities and Note 6 to Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of the acquisition financing as well as the April 1998 restructure which secures the financing with Company assets and accelerates the maturity date of the obligation to April 1999.) (II) INTELLIGENT SURFACE TECHNOLOGY ("IST") Since 1991, the Company has developed technologies which resulted in eight issued patents, as well as various notice of allowance and additional patent filings related to its IST. IST empowers surfaces to automatically measure any part of the body touching that surface and then, in real time, adjust that surface to conform to that user's body to provide the ultimate in comfort and fit. Such a surface is considered an intelligent surface because it is able to learn about the user and recognize patterns of the user's activities through its proprietary software. The Company has identified applications for this technology in the primary areas of seating, footwear and bedding. In addition, the technology can be used for handtools, exercise equipment, helmets, etc. The Company's strategy has been to license such technology to companies that can develop products that can exploit this technology. Current Licensees Textron. The Company and McCord Winn Textron Inc., a subsidiary of Textron Inc. ("Textron") signed a Development and License Agreement in March 1993, amended in October 1993 and August 1996, whereby the Company granted an exclusive worldwide license to Textron to use the IST patents and know-how in the manufacture, use and sale of seats, and seating components for the transportation industry, wheelchairs, office furniture applications and hospital beds. In September 1997, Textron began selling an automobile seat to the Cadillac Division of General Motors for inclusion, as optional equipment, in the driver and front passenger seat for the 1998 Cadillac Seville STS model. Textron is obligated to pay the Company a royalty, after deduction of an agreed upon credit ($150,000) over four or more years, for the use of the Company's technology in the sale of the systems. There were no revenues in the 1997 financial statements from the sales of Textron. The Company anticipates, based upon the information on sales activity and other information provided by Textron, that it will record license revenues in the second half of 1998. The August 1996 amendment obligated Textron to pay royalties to the Company through December 31, 1999, for any products designed using the Company's IST. After January 1, 2000, Textron shall be obligated to pay the Company royalties only for any products designed which actually incorporate IST patents and know-how transmitted to Textron by the Company after May 31, 1996. The Company has disclosed to Textron that it has received four patents and one "Notice of Allowance" after May 31, 1996. Reebok. In January 1994, the Company and Reebok International Ltd. ("Reebok") signed a world-wide exclusive licensing and development agreement for the use of IST for certain footwear. In addition, Reebok has a right of first refusal to obtain 3 exclusive licenses to use IST on athletic, sport and fitness equipment fields of use. The fields of medical equipment and orthopedic devices are specifically excluded from the Reebok license. No revenue has been realized from this license. The Company and Reebok are continuing discussions. Sealy. In August 1996, the Company signed an agreement with Sealy, Inc. in which Sealy, Inc. has the option to license IST for its adjustable bed and a right of first refusal as applied to all bedding products (excluding medical bedding applications). No revenue has been received in 1997 from this license. The Company is in various stages of discussions with other companies about the possible license of IST for use in consumer seating and other products. (III) PROPRIETARY SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT Since 1989, the Company has developed, marketed, maintained, and continuously upgraded its Mannequin Pro(TM) software product. This proprietary software product was further developed and marketed by the Company's HumanCAD(R) division during 1997. In December 1997, the Company received a commitment for certain financing of the planned development and marketing activities of HumanCAD in 1998. The Company took an additional facility in Waterloo, Canada and hired additional sales and marketing and development personnel subsequent to that time. In late February 1998, the Company was advised by the funding source that it would no longer be interested in going forward with the planned financing. The Company then determined to seek alternative value for its investment in these software products and significantly reduced its development and marketing efforts. The operations of the Human CAD division are considered a discontinued operation in the accompanying financial statements with a measurement date of February 1998. As such, additional charges to operations will be made in 1998. The related products of the Human CAD division are as follows: Mannequin Pro(TM) MannequinPro(TM) is a human modeling program that enables the user to render 3-dimensional scalable humod figures on a personal computer (PC). These figures can be articulated into any position and then can be viewed from any angle, distance or perspective. The result of that view can be printed, plotted or exported to other graphics software for further enhancement of the image. The figures can walk, bend, reach and grasp objects. A user can test the functionality of the design of almost anything used by humans. The Company has recently upgraded a Windows(R) version that processes in all Windows(R) platforms. The software is compatible with CAD and other graphic programs, and has motion capture capabilities useful for graphical illustrations and motion analysis. The Company believes that several universities, design organizations and government agencies, including NASA, are current users of the earlier version of MannequinPro(TM). Human CAD has also developed a low cost version of MannequinPro called Mannequin OnSite. (IV) ERGONOMIC CONSULTING SERVICES Until February 9, 1998, the Company had provided ergonomic consulting services in two areas: (i) Traditional Ergonomic Consulting Services, in Ergonomic Product Assessment and Redesign, and Ergonomic Workplace Assessment and (ii) Software Based Consulting Services, tailored to the implementation and use of the HumanCAD(R) line of ergonomic software products. Prior to the acquisition of Drew Shoe, Ergonomic Consulting Services represented the majority of revenues (over 75%) in 1997 and 1996. On February 9, 1998, this business was sold to a third party in exchange for 7.5% of revenues under contracts in process assumed by the third party plus certain defined future revenues. In Ergonomic Product Assessment and Redesign services, the Company performed comprehensive subjective and objective ergonomic testing on products that quantifies the product's relationship in terms of comfort, fit, useability and user performance to humans. This knowledge was used by product developers, manufacturers and industrial design firms to improve existing products and/or to develop new ones. 4 In Ergonomic Workplace Assessment services, the Company provided industrial companies, government, and insurance companies with advice on how to reduce musculoskeletal injuries, through its proprietary EARLY(R) (Ergonomic Assessment of Risk and Liability) services and other consulting services. Other benefits are the potential for improved productivity, enhanced product and service quality. SALES AND MARKETING Drew Shoe Wholesale Drew Shoe markets its products through eleven independent sales representatives and through the efforts of four employees who are part of a customer service telemarketing team. The sales representatives call on retail customers periodically during the year and solicit new orders based upon new product samples and seasonal catalogues, which reflect the Company's complete product line. The customer service telemarketing team calls or receives calls from customers who want to place fill-in orders. The Company's products are advertised locally by Drew customers. Drew participates in these costs based upon a preset formula. All orders are subject to credit approval and are shipped from Lancaster, Ohio. Retail Drew Shoe retail stores service the medical footware needs of the communities in which they are located. Each store communicates its marketing message via newspaper advertising, direct mail and by calling on appropriate doctors in the community. Each store has a qualified staff in-house to assist the customer in meeting their specific footware needs. Marketing Strategy for Licensing IST In order for the Company to obtain new licensees, the Company's marketing strategy has focused on identifying organizations that: -- Are large, -- Are financially strong, -- Have marketing presence, and -- Have the financial resources to commercialize the technology The Company will license the IST technology to organizations that meet the above criteria and will assist those organizations in commercializing the technology. Research and Development The Company's research and development is focused on enhancing and commercializing the Company's core technologies. The Company attempts to minimize spending on research. Therefore, the Company typically will try to acquire the rights to use an existing technology, if available, rather than spend money and effort to invent a new technology. The Company will, however, fund research for technology, when the needed technology is not available. For example, in the case of certain components (i.e., a self-generating power supply and an intelligent switch) which are necessary to employ IST for handtools and footwear applications, the Company is seeking to acquire the rights to technology to manufacture such components instead of trying to invent those technologies. However, in the case of other control components (i.e., the microvalve that will control the "air pressure"), the Company is devoting resources to develop that technology, in order to be in a better position to exploit the commercial opportunities of IST in a miniaturized environment. The Company has a collaborative arrangement with MCNC to develop a microelectric mechanical device "microvalve" using MEMS (micro electric mechanical systems) technology. In the area of development, the Company is focusing on software and application engineering for IST to support products of its licensees. Further software developments include principally IST. 5 The Company uses its internal resources and subcontractors, as needed, in its research and development activities. For example, the Company has established a collaborative research and development relationships with the State University of New York at Stony Brook, MCNC and the New Jersey Institute of Technology, and plans to establish additional relationships with other universities, and government laboratories, as necessary. Competition Drew Shoe The Company competes in a highly fragmented medical and comfort niche market segment of the footware market. Competition includes P.W. Minor, whose products are very similar to those offered by Drew Shoe. Various other companies compete with Drew on the fringe of the medical footware market, including SAS, a large manufacturer and retailer of comfort oriented footware for women and men. Management of the Company believes that its unique IST technology and know-how may give it a competitive advantage. Although there may be similar systems to the Company's IST, the Company believes that its patents and know-how protect its technology from competition. Suppliers The Company's traditional business involved providing services, and the materials it used in its business may be obtained from numerous suppliers. Drew Shoe depends on various raw materials and components to manufacture its shoes, many of which are dependent on one supplier. Drew Shoe does not have binding long-term supply contracts with these suppliers. Approximately 15% of Drew Shoe's supplies, primarily leather, are provided by Italian companies. The Company believes that its relationships with its vendors are satisfactory. Government Regulation The Company's present and proposed activities are not generally subject to government regulation in the United States or other countries. The costs and effects of complying with environmental laws by the Company are not material. Proprietary Information The patent process is a significant protection for the Company's intellectual property. The Company has obtained eight patents and has filed nine additional United States patent applications relating to its IST. One of the patents filed is also very significant since it is for a critical component needed to miniaturize the application of the IST. Such miniaturization will allow the Company to a) accelerate the commercialization of many applications, b) enter the very large and expanding medical footwear market with applications for diabetics, arthritics and the aging population, and c) provide applications to other industries, such as the hand tool industry. The Company also has five U.S. patents in fields other than IST. Major Customers Drew Shoe During 1996 and 1997 the Veteran's Administration was Drew's largest customer accounting for approximately 11% of revenue each year. No other customer accounted for more than 5% of Drew's revenues in either year. IST - The major customer for IST as the Company enters 1998 is Textron. See above. 6 The "Year 2000" issue At Drew Shoe, there are information systems used for general accounting, wholesale operations, retail operations and factory management. In October 1997, Drew Shoe, with the assistance of consultants, began a comprehensive review of its information systems, most of which are in need of upgrade in order to keep pace with the growth strategies of the Company. In December 1997, Drew Shoe hired a full time Director of Information Systems to lead the Company's efforts in this area. In connection with such efforts, Drew Shoe made capital expenditure commitments of approximately $50,000 to upgrade certain hardware and expects to make certain additional commitments for hardware, peripheral equipment, software and software upgrades in connection with its comprehensive review of its information systems. These efforts are expected to result in substantial change to the information systems of Drew Shoe over the coming eighteen months. In each effort, the "Year 2000" problem is being addressed as a priority item. Management expects to complete the changes necessary to be "Year 2000 Compliant" prior to the year 2000. Since the scope of proposed changes to the information systems at Drew Shoe is still under review, management is not able to estimate the cost, at this time, of changes to the systems. However, management does not believe that the cost to be "Year 2000 Compliant" is a material additional cost to the changes which it would plan to make to its systems to accommodate planned growth strategies. At the Company's corporate office, information systems are principally utilized for general accounting. Such system is not "Year 2000" compliant and the Company expects to upgrade such system during 1998 in order to be compliant. The Company does not believe that the cost of compliance with "Year 2000" will be material at its headquarters. Employees As of December 31, 1997, the Company had approximately 275 employees, including approximately 255 persons employed by Drew Shoe, 5 employees devoted to Ergonomic Consulting and technology, 8 employees devoted to HumanCAD, 4 corporate administrative employees and 3 executive officers. Approximately 10 of those employed at December 31, 1997 have been terminated or notified of termination in connection with the sale of the Ergonomic Consulting Division and the substantial reduction in activity of the HumanCAD division. Of the 255 employees at Drew Shoe, approximately 18 are employed part time and approximately 155 are covered by a collective bargaining agreement that expires in May 1998. In addition, the Company has established a collaborative research and development relationship with the State University of New York at Stony Brook, with plans to establish additional relationships with other universities, government laboratories, and other sub-contractors. The Company has been able to attract and retain skilled employees by offering competitive salaries and benefits. The Company believes that its relationship with its employees is good. Forward-Looking Statements Information set forth in this Form 10-KSB regarding the Company's plans for future operations constitutes "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Any forward-looking statements should be considered in light of the factors set forth in the "Factors That May Affect Future Results" section of this Form 10-KSB. ITEM 2. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY Since 1990, the Company has leased office space at 1800 Walt Whitman Road, Melville, New York. The Company's lease expires on March 31, 2000. The current annualized lease rate for this space is approximately $150,000, which is subject to annual increases. The facility, which contains approximately 8,400 square feet, includes biomechanics research laboratories and an ergonomic library as well as offices. The laboratories were used both for testing and for the redesign of products and are largely unused as a result of the discontinuance of the Ergonomic Consulting Services Division. The Company is in discussions with its landlord and a prospective sub tenant about subletting this facility in the first half of 1998 and moving into smaller quarters. The Company's HumanCAD division has two development facilities, one in Toronto, Canada and one in Waterloo, Canada. Such facilities contain an aggregate of approximately 3,000 square feet 7 and were utilized for development and executive offices. The Company expects to sublet such facilities, if possible. Drew Shoe owns a 40,000 square foot facility at 252 Quarry Road, Lancaster, Ohio. This facility serves as Drew Shoe's executive office as well as warehouse and certain manufacturing facilities. Drew Shoe also owns a 60,000 square foot manufacturing facility on Forest Rose Avenue in Lancaster, Ohio that houses its principal manufacturing operations. Drew Shoe leases retail space to house its 15 retail outlets. Such facilities call for aggregate annual rentals of approximately $286,000 per year. ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS In January 1998, Ulin & Holland Incorporated ("U & H") filed suit against the Company's Drew Shoe subsidiary in United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts. The suit alleges that U & H was retained in 1992 by Drew Shoe pursuant to which U & H alleges that it is due a fee of not less than $297,000 in connection with the Company's acquisition of Drew Shoe. Drew Shoe disputes this claim and the Company intends to vigorously defend this action. There are no other material legal proceedings pending against the Company. ITEM 4.

The Registrant claims exemption from registration of this placement by virtue of Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933. (ii) Convertible Preferred stock of BCA Services, Inc. ("BCA"), a subsidiary of the Registrant ($1,200,000) - On July 22, 1997 BCA Services, Inc. ("BCA"), previously a wholly-owned subsidiary of the "Company", commenced an Offering (the "Offering") to sell up to 150 shares of BCA's Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Preferred Stock") for a total consideration of $1.5 million in a private offering to accredited investors. The Preferred Stock was convertible into shares of the Company's Common Stock ("Common Stock") at a price equal to 70% of the average closing bid price of the Common Stock over a three day trading period ending on the day preceding the conversion date (the "Variable Conversion Price"). The Conversion Price could not be greater than 100% of the Variable Conversion Price on the first closing date (the "Fixed Conversion Price"). The Fixed Conversion price was $0.6563. In July and September 1997, the Company sold 100 shares ($1,000,000) of Convertible Preferred stock to Austost Anstalt Schaan ($500,000) and UFH Endowment LTD. ($500,000). Between November 1997 and March 1998, all of the Convertible Preferred stock issued was converted into common stock of the Company. In addition, purchasers of the Convertible Preferred stock received Non-Redeemable Class BB Warrants to purchase 50,000 shares of Common Stock, exercisable at $0.7219. The warrants have a term of five years and the Common Stock underlying the warrants contains registration rights. On September 18, 1997, BCA closed a separate offering of its Preferred Stock plus warrants for $200,000 on similar terms and conditions as the Offering (excluding the existing fixed conversion feature and certain fees). As a result of this offering, 20 shares of Preferred Stock (convertible into the Company's common stock at a maximum price of $0.9331 per share) were issued, along with Non-Redeemable Class CC Warrants to purchase up to 10,000 shares of Common Stock (at $1.0264 per share). The purchasers of the securities were Arcadia Mutual Fund, which purchased 15 shares of Preferred Stock and warrants to purchase 7,500 shares of the Company's common stock, and David Morgenstern, who purchased 5 shares of Preferred Stock and warrants to purchase 2,500 shares of the Company's common stock. All of the Convertible Preferred stock issued in this offering was converted to common stock of the Company at an average price of approximately $0.79 per share prior to December 31, 1997. . The Registrant claims exemption from registration of this placement by virtue of Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933. The two private placements of BCA preferred stock were made with the assistance of a placement agent, Corporate 10 Capital Management, who charged a commission of 8% in fees and 2% in expenses plus warrants to purchase up to 50,000 shares of common stock of the Registrant at approximately $0.66 per share, for five years for the first offering and 6% in fees and no warrants for the second offering. In response to positions recently taken by the Securities and Exchange Commission, Emerging Issues Task Force Statement D-60 has been issued which requires accounting for securities issued which are convertible into common stock at a value which is "beneficial" at the date of issuance (such as the preferred stock described above and the 10%/13% Convertible Notes and Warrants described below). This accounting results in significant charges to operations in connection with these financings as further described in Notes 6 and 7 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. (iii) 10%/13% Convertible Notes and Warrants ($6,000,000) - In order to fund the acquisition of Drew Shoe and provide working capital to the Company, On September 19, 1997, the Company issued subordinated convertible notes to eight investors in the aggregate amount of $6,000,000 (the "Convertible Notes"). The Convertible Notes are due as amended in April 1998 (see "Debt restructuring" below) on April 16, 1999, unless at any time after September 19, 1998, they are converted, at $.80 per share, into 7,500,000 shares of Common Stock of the Company. The conversion feature is subject to antidilution in certain circumstances including the issuance of Common Stock and warrants in 1998 discussed below. The Convertible Notes bear an interest rate of 10%, payable semi-annually, but the Company, at its discretion, may pay interest in the form of its convertible notes in which case the annual interest rate becomes 13% with semi-annual compounding. The Convertible Notes require the Company to maintain compliance with certain financial covenants including maintenance of minimum levels of interest coverage and net worth (as defined). In addition, the Company issued to the noteholders Non-Redeemable Class DD Warrants to purchase as amended in April 1998, 2,400,000 shares of common stock, exercisable at $1.75 per share at any time prior to September 19, 2002. The market value of the Company's common stock on the Nasdaq SmallCap market on the date of the transaction was approximately $1.50. The purchasers of the securities are set forth in the following table: Common shares Common shares Name of purchaser Amount paid issuable under warrants - ----------------- ----------- -------- -------------- Impleo, LLC $5,000,000 6,250,000 2,000,000 621 Partners 150,000 187,500 60,000 R.

Weil & Associates, and together with Messrs Kirr, Marbach and Summerville may be deemed to constitute a group within the meaning of Regulation 13D-G. The private placement of convertible notes and warrants to Impleo, LLC was made with the assistance of an investment banker, Josephberg Grosz and Company, who charged a cash fee of 6% ($300,000) of proceeds plus 187,500 shares of common stock, and warrants to purchase 500,000 shares of common stock, at $0.80 per share, of the Registrant. The remaining $1,000,000 of proceeds was not subject to a commission. The Registrant claims exemption from registration of this placement by virtue of Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933. In response to positions recently taken by the Securities and Exchange Commission, Emerging Issues Task Force Statement D-60 has been issued which requires accounting for securities issued which are convertible into common stock at a value which is "beneficial" at the date of issuance (such as the preferred stock and the 10%/13% Convertible Notes and 11 Warrants described above). This accounting results in significant charges to operations in connection with these financings as further described in Notes 6 and 7 to Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company also has, under generally accepted accounting principles, recorded approximately $1,872,000 as the estimated value of the detachable warrants issued in connection with the convertible notes. Reference is made to Note 6 of the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company. Debt Restructuring - Effective April 14, 1998 the Company and the holders of the 10%/13% Convertible Notes and related warrants entered into a First Amendment (and related Stock Pledge Agreement and Security Agreement) of the September 1997 Note Purchase Agreement in order to restructure the obligation. The key elements of the restructuring are as follows: (1) waiving of the Company's violations of the financial covenants at December 31, 1997 (as well as certain other breaches of the agreement), (2) eliminating the financial covenants through April 16, 1999, (3) securing the obligation with a pledge of all of the assets of the Company (excluding the assets of Drew Shoe which are already pledged to a bank), including the stock of the Company's subsidiaries, (4) accelerating the maturity date for the obligation from September 19, 2002 to April 16, 1999, (5) cancellation of Class DD warrants to purchase 400,000 shares of common stock of the Company, (6) issuance to the holders a total of 10% of the common shares of the Company's subsidiaries Drew Shoe Corporation and BCAM Technologies, Inc. The Company expects to take a significant charge to operations in 1998 in connection with the finalization of the restructuring of the debt. (iv) Sale of Common Stock and Warrants (April 1998) Beginning on April 14, 1998, the Company commenced a private offering of its common stock and warrants. The offering contemplates aggregate proceeds of $2,000,000 for the purchase of 1,980,198 shares of common stock of the Company and warrants to purchase 250,000 shares of common stock at $2.05 for three years by seven accredited investors. On April 15, 1998 the Company issued 1,881,188 shares of common stock, together with warrants to purchase 237,500 common shares at $2.05 per share for three years, to private investors in exchange for $1,900,000, less $475,000 held in escrow pending the Company's filing of a registration statement covering the shares and shares underlying the warrants prior to June 13, 1998. The Company has agreed to register such shares and has agreed to penalties of 3% per month should the registration statement not be declared effective within 130 days. The number of shares issuable to these investors will be "repriced" pursuant to a schedule initially in four $300,000 increments and then in four $200,000 increments on eight occasions commencing with the effectiveness of a registration statement covering the shares and again 60 days later and then in 30 day intervals. On such dates, the investor would receive the additional number of shares, if any, that result from the difference between the number of shares actually issued and the number of shares which would have been issued using a 23% discount to the market price, as defined, at that time. The operation of this provision could result in significantly greater number of shares being issued. The investors have agreed not to sell any shares before at least 120 days after the closing. The Company is exposed to significant penalties for failure to have a registration statement declared effective covering such shares within 130 days, has agreed not to issue certain financings and has agreed to pay a placement agent a 6.5% fee in connection with the transaction. ITEM 6. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS Except for the historical information contained herein, the following discussion contains forward looking statements that involve risk and uncertainties. The Company's actual results could differ materially from those discussed herein. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed below in Factors That May Affect Future Results Overview The Company has historically been a software technology and consulting company, specializing in providing ergonomic solutions (human factors engineering) to individuals, major corporations and government. On September 22, 1997, the Company acquired Drew Shoe Corporation ("Drew Shoe"), a designer, marketer, manufacturer and distributor of medical footwear. Drew Shoe had annual revenues of approximately $15.1 million in 1997 and $14.6 million in 1996 and has been in business for approximately 125 years. Drew Shoe provides the Company with ongoing revenue, as well as potential new product opportunities through utilization of Company technology (both existing and under development) into Drew Shoe products and a platform for further possible acquisition of medical footwear and related business. The Company's revenues have historically been derived primarily from ergonomic consulting services. In December 1997 the Board of Directors of the Company decided to sell the operations of the ergonomic consulting services business as discussed in Note 8 to Consolidated Financial Statements. In late February 1998, the Board of Directors of the Company decided to seek alternative value for the operations of the HumanCAD software division as discussed in Note 8 to Consolidated Financial Statements. Since the acquisition of Drew Shoe, the Company's revenues in the near term are expected to be derived principally from the medical footwear business. The Company is now a medical footwear and technology company with a focus on: (i) building its presence in medical footwear and related industries through internal growth and planned acquisitions, (ii) advancing the development and commercialization of the Company's Intelligent Surface Technology ("IST") and (iii) developing new technologies including its proprietary "microvalve." The Company has collaborative research and development relationships with the State University of New York at Stony Brook and with MCNC which provide valuable resources in strengthening the Company's technologies. Because of the significance of Drew Shoe's operations to the ongoing operations of the Company, Drew Shoe is considered a "predecessor" of the Company in the accompanying financial statements. See Liquidity and Capital Resources and Note 6 to Consolidated Financial Statements regarding the restructure of certain long-term debt. Results of Operations Results of operations for 1997 are significantly impacted by restructuring developments including: (1) the acquisition of Drew Shoe (2) the discontinuation of the Ergonomic Consulting Services and HumanCAD software divisions and (3) charges and costs related to the financing to acquire Drew Shoe and other financing during the year. 12 Drew Shoe acquisition - Effective September 22, 1997, the Company acquired all of the outstanding Common Stock of Drew Shoe for approximately $4.7 million plus the assumption of liabilities. Drew Shoe is a designer, manufacturer, marketer and distributor (both wholesale and retail) of medical footwear. The Company has accounted for its acquisition of Drew Shoe under the purchase method of accounting. As such, the results of operations of Drew Shoe are consolidated with the Company's 1997 operations for approximately three months and eight days beginning on September 22, 1997. Drew Shoe had operating income (before subsidiary interest and finance costs, net of interest income, of approximately $106,000) of approximately $112,000. Further, the Company expects to take steps to build the revenue base and profitability of Drew Shoe. The Company expects that its revenues in the near term will be principally from Drew Shoe. Drew Shoe had revenues of over $14.6 million in calendar 1996 Discontinued operations - As discussed in greater detail in Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company has recorded the operations of the Ergonomic Consulting Services Division ("ECSD") and HumanCAD Systems Division ("HCAD") as discontinued operations. The two divisions represented combined revenues and operating losses of approximately $602,000 and $1,356,000, respectively, in 1997. These divisions were discontinued because ECSD did not generate operating profits for the Company and HCAD required capital which the Company could not obtain on favorable terms. Because the measurement date for the HumanCAD discontinuance is in late February 1998, there will be additional losses recorded from this activity until its discontinuance in the first quarter of 1998. Charges and costs related to financings (including minority interest charge) - Interest and financing costs for the year ended December 31, 1997 consisted principally of: (i) non-cash amortization of Unamortized charge for beneficial debt conversion of approximately $1,635,000 as a result of the application of EITF Statement D-60, (ii) costs of financings which the Company chose not to complete of approximately $130,000, (iii) amortization of debt discount of approximately $95,000, (iv) amortization of Deferred finance costs of approximately $75,000 and (v) accrual for interest and all other of approximately $313,000. See Note 6 to financial statements regarding the significant non-cash charge which results from the accounting under EITF Statement D-60. In addition to the interest and financing costs discussed above, the Company recorded a non-cash charge of approximately $788,000 to minority interests during 1997. This charge reflects the accounting for the beneficial conversion feature of subsidiary preferred stock issued during 1997. Such accounting, in accordance with EITF Statement D-60 is described in Note 3 and 7 to the consolidated financial statements. Ongoing selling, general and administrative costs - Ongoing selling, general and administrative costs before considering such costs at the acquired company (Drew Shoe) totaled approximately $1,501,000 in 1997 compared to approximately $1,408,000 in 1996. The increase consists principally of approximately $150,000 related to increases in executive compensation and bonuses over the prior year, offset by various decreases. Research and development costs - In 1997, research and development costs consist principally of costs associated with the Company's development of a "microvalve" in collaboration with a third party, MCNC. License revenues - License revenues consist principally of revenues received from IST products and have not been significant to date. One Company's licensee, Textron, has launched a new product, in September 1997, utilizing IST in an automobile seat. It is expected that such product would generate license revenues for the Company in approximately the fourth quarter of 1998. Liquidity and Capital Resources The September 22, 1997 purchase of Drew Shoe results in a significant change to the financial position, working capital, capital resources and liquidity of the Company. This results from: (i) the issuance of $6,000,000 of 10%/13% Convertible Notes, due 1999, and Warrants, (ii) the secured credit facility with a bank and (iii) the purchase of significant operating assets in Drew Shoe (principally inventory, receivables, facilities and equipment), net of expenses and liabilities associated with the transactions. The Company's financial position, working capital and liquidity was also affected by the July and September issuance of an aggregate of $1,200,000 of convertible preferred stock of a subsidiary, all of which has been converted into common stock of the Company at March 31, 1998 (see Note 7 to consolidated financial statements) and the January through March 1997 private placement of common stock and warrants for an aggregate consideration of $1,075,000. The changes in Company's financial position include the following: 13 December 31, 1997 December 31, 1996 ----------------- ----------------- Cash $ 1,594,000 $ 526,000 Working capital $ 6,716,000 $ 438,000 Long-term debt (see below) $ 7,972,000 $ 0 Total Assets $14,177,000 $1,304,000 Shareholders equity $ 2,094,000 $1,015,000 See Notes 5, 6 and 7 to Consolidated Financial Statements for a description of the acquisition and the terms of the 10%/13% Convertible Notes, secured credit facility, convertible preferred stock and short term note payable. The structure of the secured credit facility with a bank is such that Drew Shoe cannot transfer cash to the Company other than in the ordinary course of business. Subsequent to December 31, 1997 a planned financing directed toward the development and marketing efforts of the HumanCAD division was terminated by the potential funding source. The losses of that division in the first quarter of 1998 are expected to be material to operations and the Company's liquidity. The Company requires additional capital in order to fund its operations during 1998. During April 1998, the Company commenced a private placement to raise an aggregate $2,000,000 through the issuance of common stock and warrants (See -- Recent issuance of unregistered securities). The Company received approximately $1,425,000 of gross proceeds from this planned financing by April 16, 1998. This financing would permit the Company to continue to pursue its business strategy for approximately 12 months. Thereafter, the Company may require additional capital to pursue its business plan (also see next paragraph). Further, the capital raised in this financing would most likely not be sufficient to fund any significant acquisitions and is not planned to be used for that purpose. The Company expects that it will be required to raise additional capital in order to fund its acquisition strategy and to develop and exploit its "microvalve". On April 14, 1998, the Company and the holders of the 10%/13% Convertible Notes agreed to restructure the 10%/13% Convertible Notes (See -- Recent sales of unregistered securities and Note 6 to financial statements). As part of the restructuring, the Company agreed to accelerate repayment of the obligation from September 19, 2002 to April 16, 1999 and to secure the obligation with all of the assets of the Company. As a result, the Company has a significant capital requirement to repay this obligation ($6,000,000) in approximately one year or face default and possible foreclosure on the security. It is the Company's intention to refinance or otherwise restructure this obligation. Factors That May Affect Future Results The Company's future operating results are dependent on the Company's ability to: (i) obtain sufficient capital to fund its development, growth and acquisition plans, (ii) generate profitable growth at Drew Shoe, (iii) generate sufficient profits from operations to fund its debt service, (iv) identify and successfully close potential acquisitions on terms that are favorable to the Company (vi) achieve further successful development of IST and increase the number of licensees, and the commercialization of IST by its licensees, (vii) introduce IST in medical footwear and orthotic products and (viii) successfully develop the "microvalve", and in addition they are also dependent on, (ix) general economic conditions and conditions in the financial and medical footwear markets and related industries. 14 ITEM 7.

Description of Business and Principles of Consolidation BCAM International, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") has been primarily a software technology and consulting company, specializing in providing ergonomic solutions (human factors engineering) to individuals, major corporations and government. On September 22, 1997, the Company acquired Drew Shoe Corporation ("Drew Shoe"), a designer, marketer, manufacturer and distributor of medical footwear. Drew Shoe had revenues for its year ended December 31, 1996 of approximately $14.6 million and has been in business for approximately 125 years. The Company's revenues have historically been derived primarily from ergonomic consulting services. In December 1997 the Board of Directors of the Company decided to discontinue the operations of the ergonomic consulting services business due to the inability of that business to generate operating profits for the Company. In February 1998, the Board of Directors of the Company decided to discontinue the operations of the HumanCAD software division as a result of the lack of available financing to further the necessary business development activities of that division on a basis that would enhance shareholder value. Since the acquisition of Drew Shoe, the Company's revenues in the near term are expected to be derived principally from the medical footwear business. The Company's strategic focus is on building its presence in the medical footwear and related industries and on broadening and strengthening the development and commercialization of the Company's proprietary technologies, principally Intelligent Surface Technology ("IST") and its proprietary "microvalve". Because of the significance of Drew Shoe's operations to the ongoing operations of the Company, Drew Shoe is considered a "predecessor" of the Company. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of BCAM International, Inc. and its subsidiaries, principally Drew Shoe (medical footwear), since September 22, 1997, BCAM Technologies, Inc. (principally IST and related technologies), BCA Services, Inc. (principally human ergonomics consulting which has been discontinued), and HumanCAD Systems, Inc. (principally software development and marketing which has been discontinued). The Company requires additional capital to fund its activities in 1998 and made a private placement of its equity securities in April 1998 in order to satisfy this need (see note 7). In April 1998, the Company and the holders of its 10%/13% Convertible Notes agreed to a restructuring of the obligation which accelerates repayment to April 1999, among other matters discussed in Note 6. 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Cash Equivalents, Financial Instruments and Concentration of Credit Risk The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and trade accounts receivable. The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts that, at times, may exceed Federally insured limits. Concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade receivables are limited due to the large number of customers comprising the Company's customer base, their dispersion across different geographic areas, and generally short payment terms. In addition, the Company routinely assesses the financial strength of its customers. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and footnotes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Revenue Revenue from wholesale medical footwear sales is recognized at the time products are shipped. Revenue from retail medical footwear sales through Company-owned retail operations is recognized at the point of sale. License revenues are recorded when earned under the related license agreement. Inentory F-6 BCAM International, Inc. and subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 1997 Inentories are stated at the lower of cost, determined on a first-in, first-out basis, or market. Property, Plant and Equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Other Assets The costs of acquiring or processing (principally professional and government fees) patents, trademarks and other intellectual properties are capitalized at cost. This amount is being amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the underlying assets of approximately 5 years. Research and Development Research and development costs are charged to operations in the period incurred. Income Taxes The Company accounts for income taxes using Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Statement No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." At December 31, 1997, the Company has net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $15,937,000 for income tax purposes, expiring through 2012. At December 31, 1997 and 1996, deferred tax assets approximating $5,886,000 and $4,672,000, respectively, arising from the future potential availability of net operating loss carryforwards have been offset in full by valuation allowances in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109. The utilization of these losses to reduce future income taxes will depend on the generation of sufficient taxable income prior to the expiration of the net operating loss carryforwards. Additionally, based on ownership changes which occurred in 1997 and in prior years, it is expected that the annual utilization of the otherwise available net operating loss carryforwards will be limited by the provisions of Sections 382 and 383 of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended. As such the Company may be restricted as to the utilization of its net operating loss. The Company believes that significant issuances of additional stock could trigger an additional change and a new limitation. Net Loss Per Share In March 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Standards ("SFAS") No. 128, Earnings per Share. Statement 128 replaced the calculation of primary and fully diluted earnings per share with basic and diluted earnings per share. Unlike primary earnings per share, basic earnings per share excludes any dilutive effects of options, warrants and convertible securities. Diluted earnings per share is very similar to the previously reported fully diluted earnings per share. Net loss per share has been computed on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Common stock equivalents have been excluded because their effect is antidilutive. There was no effect to the Company's financial statements of adopting SFAS 128. Stock-Based Compensation In 1996, the Company adopted SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." In accordance with the standard, the Company elected to continue to account for its stock-based compensation under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" and related interpretations (APB 25). Under APB 25, because the exercise price of the Company's stock options granted equals the market price of the underlying stock on the date of the grant, no compensation expense is required to be recognized except in the case of options issued which are subject to shareholder approval (see Note 7). F-7 BCAM International, Inc. and subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 1997 Reclassification Certain amounts in the 1996 financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the 1997 presentation. 3. Inventories Inventories consisted of the following at December 31, 1997: Raw materials $ 760,000 Work in process 976,000 Finished goods 4,542,000 ---------- Total $6,278,000 ========== Inventories at September 22, 1997 (date of acquisition of Drew Shoe) were approximately $6,175,000. 4. Property and equipment Property and equipment consists of the following at December 31, 1997 and were depreciated and amortized utilizing the estimated useful lives indicated below: Range of Estimated December Useful Lives 31, 1997 ------------ -------- Land $ 100,000 Buildings and improvements 10-35 years 726,000 Equipment, furniture and fixtures 5-10 years 2,924,000 Leasehold improvements 2-5 years 51,000 ---------- Total 3,801,000 Less accumulated depreciation 832,000 ---------- Total $2,969,000 ---------- Approximately $2,839,000, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization, of the total property and equipment was acquired in September 1997 as part of the acquisition of Drew Shoe. 5. Acquisition of Drew Shoe Effective September 22, 1997, the Company acquired all of the outstanding Common Stock of Drew Shoe for approximately $4.7 million plus the assumption of liabilities. The purchase price was paid by delivery to the shareholders of Drew Shoe of an aggregate of $3,882,000 in cash, promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $400,000 (See Note 6) and by delivery of an aggregate of 375,000 unregistered shares of the Company's Common Stock (valued at approximately $1.20 per share to reflect a discount for lack of registration). The promissory notes bear interest at 8% per annum, are due on September 19, 1999, and are payable in twenty-four (24) equal monthly installments aggregating $8,333.34 (plus interest) with final payments due in the twenty-fifth (25th) month aggregating $200,000. See Note 6 for a description of the securities issued in order to finance the acquisition of Drew Shoe. Simultaneously with the acquisition, Drew Shoe entered into a credit facility with a commercial bank (guaranteed by the Company) which is further described in Note 6. F-8 BCAM International, Inc. and subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 1997 Drew Shoe is a designer, manufacturer, marketer and distributor of medical footwear headquartered in Lancaster, Ohio. In addition, Drew Shoe operates 15 retail shoe specialty stores. The Company has accounted for its acquisition of Drew Shoe under the purchase method of accounting. Under such method, the purchase price paid plus costs of the acquisition are allocated to the assets and liabilities of the acquired company based on the estimated fair value of assets and liabilities acquired. The remaining amount, if any, is allocated to goodwill. The results of operations of the acquired company are consolidated with the Company's operations beginning on the date of purchase. At December 31, 1997, a preliminary estimate of the fair value of assets and liabilities has been made based upon certain appraisals and other data that is preliminary and subject to change. Based upon such preliminary evaluation at December 31, 1997, approximately $21,000 of goodwill has been recorded in connection with the acquisition of Drew Shoe. The following summary shows the unaudited pro-forma results of operations for the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996 assuming that the Company had purchased Drew Shoe as of the beginning of each period shown. This information gives effect to the increased interest and financing costs (excluding certain material non-recurring charges that are discussed in Notes 6 and 7) and the amortization of fair value adjustments (principally for increased depreciation). The Company has not included a provision for income taxes because it believes that it will have sufficiently available net operating losses available to offset anticipated profits from Drew Shoe. This summary may not be indicative of what the actual results of operations would have been had the purchase occurred at the beginning of each period shown. 1997 1996 ---- ---- Revenues $15,083,000 $14,638,000 =========== =========== Loss from operations $(1,019,000) $(1,123,000) =========== =========== Loss from Continuing Operations (excluding non-recurring charges in 1997) (3,365,000) (2,506,000) =========== =========== Net loss (excluding non-recurring charges in 1997) (4,741,000) (2,751,000) =========== =========== Net loss per share (excluding non recurring charges in 1997) (0.30) (0.19) =========== =========== 6. Long Term Debt and Convertible Notes Secured bank debt - Simultaneously with the acquisition of Drew Shoe, the Company through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Drew Shoe, entered into a credit facility with a commercial bank consisting of: (i) a revolving line of credit up to $4,500,000 (which is based upon agreed upon percentages of accounts receivable and inventory) and (ii) a term loan of $1,000,000. As of the date of the Drew Shoe acquisition, the Company believes there was approximately $4,500,000 available under this credit facility (approximately $3,750,000 of which was drawn down to pay certain existing liabilities of Drew Shoe, including an existing liability to that bank of approximately $2,655,000, debentures payable to former shareholders of approximately $845,000, and to transfer $250,000 to the Company). The revolving line of credit matures on September 30, 1999, and calls for current payments of interest at a rate of prime plus 1.5% (10% at December 31,1997). The term loan portion of the credit facility (in the principal amount of $1,000,000) also bears an interest rate of prime plus 1.5% (10% at December 31, 1997) and is payable in monthly installments through September 30, 2000 with a payment due at that time of $583,000. Both the revolving line of credit and term loan may be used for general working capital purposes and are guaranteed by the Company. The credit facility with this bank requires Drew Shoe to maintain compliance with certain financial covenants, principally net worth, and contains restrictions on the transfer of cash to the Company. F-9 BCAM International, Inc. and subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 1997 Costs incurred in connection with the bank term loan and revolving credit totaling approximately $75,000, are included in Deferred finance cost and are being amortized to Interest and financing cost using the effective interest method over a two year period. 10%/13% Convertible Notes and Warrants - In order to fund the acquisition of Drew Shoe and provide working capital to the Company, on September 19, 1997, the Company issued subordinated convertible notes (the "Convertible Notes"), and Non-Redeemable Class DD Warrants, in the aggregate amount of $6,000,000. The Convertible Notes are due, as amended, on April 16, 1999 unless at any time after September 19, 1998 they are converted, at $.80 per share, into 7,500,000 shares of Common Stock of the Company. Such conversion feature is subject to antidilution provision in certain circumstances including the issuance of Common Stock and warrants in 1998 discussed below. The Convertible Notes bear an interest rate of 10%, payable semi-annually, but the Company, at its discretion, may pay interest in the form of additional Convertible Notes in which case the annual interest rate becomes 13% with semi-annual compounding. The Convertible Notes require the Company to maintain compliance with certain financial covenants including maintenance of minimum levels of interest coverage and net worth (as defined). At December 31, 1997, the Company was in violation of such covenants. On April 14, 1998, the noteholders and the Company entered into the First Amendment of the Note Purchase Agreement (together with a Stock Pledge Agreement and Security Agreement) in order to restructure the agreement. The key elements of the restructuring are as follows: (1) waiving of the Company's violations of the financial covenants at December 31, 1997 (as well as certain other breaches of the agreement) (2) eliminating the financial covenants through April 16, 1999, (3) securing the obligation with a pledge of all of the assets of the Company (excluding the assets of Drew Shoe which are already pledged to a bank), including the stock of the Company's subsidiaries, (4) accelerating the maturity date for the obligation from September 19, 2002 to April 16, 1999, (5) cancellation of Class DD warrants to purchase 400,000 shares of common stock of the Company, (6) issuance to the holders a total of 10% of the common shares of the Company's subsidiaries Drew Shoe Corporation and BCAM Technologies, Inc. As a result of the restructuring, the Company has a significant capital requirement to repay this obligation ($6,000,000) in approximately one year or face default and possible foreclosure on the security. It is the Company's intention to refinance or otherwise restructure this obligation. The Company expects to take a significant charge to operations in 1998 in connection with the finalization of the restructuring of the debt. The Non-Redeemable Class DD Warrants entitle the holders to purchase, as amended, 2,000,000 shares of common stock at $1.75 per share at any time prior to September 19, 2002. The Company has, under generally accepted accounting principles, recorded approximately $1,872,000 of the $6,000,000 received from the sale of the Convertible Notes and Warrants as the estimated value (based upon a "Black Scholes" calculation) of the detachable warrants issued in connection with the Convertible Notes resulting in a discount to the value assigned to the Convertible Notes. Such amount is being amortized over the five-year term of the Convertible Notes. The private placement of convertible notes and warrants to one investor group (aggregating $5,000,000 of the total $6,000,000) was made with the assistance of an investment banker who charged a cash fee of 6% ($300,000) plus 187,500 unregistered shares of common stock (valued at $1.20 per share to reflect a discount for lack of registration), and Class EE warrants to purchase 500,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.80 per share, of the Company. The cash fee, shares of stock and the estimated fair value of the warrants aggregate approximately $1,025,000. This amount has been apportioned between Deferred financing costs, and acquisition costs of Drew Shoe. The portion allocated to Deferred financing costs (approximately $775,000), together with legal and other costs of the transaction are being amortized over the five year term of the Convertible Notes. There were no investment banking fees associated with the remaining $1,000,000 of proceeds. The market value of the Company's common stock on the Nasdaq SmallCap market on the date of the transaction was approximately $1.50. In response to positions recently taken by the Securities and Exchange Commission, Emerging Issues Task Force Statement D-60 has been issued. Statement D-60 requires certain new accounting for securities issued which are convertible into common stock at a value which is "beneficial" at the date of issuance (such as the Convertible Notes described above and the Convertible Preferred Stock of BCA Services, Inc., a subsidiary of the Company, described in Note 7). This accounting requires that the beneficial value be charged to operations (based upon the traded market price, without discount, compared to the conversion price) in the case of a convertible note or to retained earnings as a dividend in the case of a preferred stock, over a period reflecting the shortest period in which the investor has to exercise and under the most favorable terms to the investor. As such, the Company has charged approximately $5,925,000 (representing the value of the beneficial debt conversion feature of the Convertible Notes measured at the date of issuance) to Unamortized Charge for Beneficial Debt Conversion in the shareholders' equity section of its Consolidated Balance Sheet. Such amount is being charged to Interest and financing costs in the Consolidated Statements of Operations at the rate of approximately $1,481,000 per quarter until September 19, 1998. See, however, the discussion of the restructuring of this financing below. This charge to operations is considered a non-recurring charge in the preparation of the summary pro-forma data contained in Note 5. This charge is in addition to amortization of Deferred financing costs and the debt discount related to the Convertible Notes (approximately $1,872,000), over the five-year term of the Convertible Notes. F-10 BCAM International, Inc. and subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 1997 At December 31, 1997, long term debt consists of the following: 10%/13% Convertible Notes, face amount $6,000,000, net of approximately $1,767,000 of unamortized debt discount with interest payable on March 19 and September 19, due April 16, 1999 unless earlier converted $4,233,000 Revolving credit arrangement with a bank, payable on September 30, 1999, bearing interest at prime plus 1.5 % 2,618,000 Term Loan agreement with a bank, bearing interest at prime plus 1.5% payable in monthly principal installments of $11,905 plus interest through September 30, 2000 when the final payment of $583,000 is due. 976,000 Notes payable to sellers of Drew Shoe (including $187,500 payable to the ongoing President of Drew Shoe), bearing interest at 8%, with monthly payments of principal aggregating $8,333 plus interest and balloon payments aggregating $200,000 on September 19, 1999 375,000 Amount payable to parties related to former owners and an officer of Drew Shoe due December 31, 1998, bearing interest at prime 214,000 Other, net 19,000 ---------- Total long term debt 8,435,000 less: current portion 463,000 ---------- $7,972,000 ========== Principal payment requirements on the above obligations, adjusted for the debt restructure described above is approximately as follows subsequent to December 31, 1997: Years ended Amount ----------- 1998 $ 463,000 1999 9,049,000 2000 690,000 ----------- 10,202,000 F-11 BCAM International, Inc. and subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 1997 Less unamortized debt discount (1,767,000) ----------- Total Long-term Debt at December 31, 1997 $ 8,435,000 ----------- 7. Shareholders' Equity 1997 Sale of Convertible Preferred Stock of Subsidiary - On July 22, 1997, September 8 and September 18, 1997, BCA Services, Inc. ("BCA"), previously wholly-owned by the Company, sold 120 shares of BCA's Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Preferred Stock") for an aggregate consideration of $1,200,000 in two private offerings to accredited investors. The Preferred Stock is convertible into shares of the Company's common stock at a price equal to a fixed discount (30%) of the average closing bid price of the common stock over a period of time ending on the day preceding the conversion date and subject to a ceiling price. In addition, for 100 of the shares of Preferred Stock sold, the Company issued Non-Redeemable Class BB Warrants to purchase 50,000 shares of common stock at $0.72 per share. For 20 shares of Preferred Stock sold, the Company issued Non-Redeemable Class CC Warrants to purchase 10,000 shares of common stock at $1.03 per share. The Class BB and CC Warrants have a term of five years and the underlying common stock has been registered by the Company. The two private placements of BCA Preferred Stock were made with the assistance of a placement agent. The placement agent charged a commission of 8% in fees and 2% in expenses, plus warrants to purchase 50,000 shares of common stock of the Company at approximately $0.72 per share for five years, for the first offering ($1,000,000). The placement agent charged 6% in fees and no warrants for the second offering ($200,000). At December 31, 1997, $500,000 of the Preferred Stock had been converted into 706,226 common shares of the Company at a weighted average conversion price of approximately $0.71. Subsequent to December 31, 1997, the remaining $700,000 of the Preferred Stock has been converted into 1,066,585 shares of common stock at $0.66 per share resulting in the transfer of $618,000 of minority interest at December 31, 1997 into shareholders equity. See Note 6 for a discussion of certain accounting treatment called for by Emerging Issues Task Force Statement D-60. Because the Preferred Stock issued is that of a subsidiary, but is convertible into shares of the Company, the Company has recorded the Preferred Stock of the subsidiary as "Minority interest" in the consolidated financial statements until its conversion into common stock of the Company. The "beneficial" conversion feature, therefore, has been charged to Minority interests (approximately $788,000) in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Operations. Such amount is considered a non-recurring charge in preparation of the summary pro forma data in Note 5. 1997 Sale of common stock and warrants of the Company - In January 1997, the Company commenced an offering and ultimately sold 1,075,000 equity units (each consisting of one share of the Company's common stock and one non-redeemable Class AA warrant) for $1,075,000. The Class AA warrants, as amended, entitle the holder to purchase one share of the Company's Common Stock at $0.65 per share until March 31, 2002. Authorized shares/Shares reserved for future issuance - At the annual meeting of shareholders on February 19, 1998 (including an adjournment to March 16, 1998), the shareholders of the Corporation approved an increase in the authorized shares of common stock from 40,000,000 shares to 65,000,000 shares. Additionally, the shareholders approved the adoption of changes to the bylaws of the Corporation to, among other matters, permit the Board of Directors to issue up to 2,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock of the Company on terms to be set by the Board of Directors. The Company is also authorized to issue up to 750,000 shares of its acquisition preferred stock, $.01 par value, none of which are presently issued and outstanding. The acquisition preferred stock is permitted to be issued pursuant to (i) a F-12 BCAM International, Inc. and subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 1997 statutory merger or consolidation in which the Company is the surviving entity, (ii) the acquisition by the Company of substantially all the assets or business of another entity or (iii) the acquisition by the Company of 50% or more of the voting securities of another entity. The Board of Directors is authorized to fix, before issuance, the voting powers, designations, preferences and other rights, qualifications, limitations and restrictions applicable to each series of acquisition preferred stock. Common shares reserved for future issuance as of December 31, 1997, adjusted in the case of the 1998 stock option plan for the February 1998 increase to the shares available under such plan, are approximately as follows: Units sold in public offering in 1990: F-13 BCAM International, Inc. and subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 1997 Class B warrants, subject to antidilution (see below) 1,292,000 Class E warrants, subject to antidilution (see below) 737,000 Unit Options, expired in 1997 0 Conversion feature of 10%/13% Convertible Notes, subject to antidilution and "pay in kind" provisions ($0.80, 2002 see Note 6) 7,500,000 Conversion feature of BCA Preferred stock, stated at amount actually converted in full prior to March 31, 1998, (see above) 1,067,000 Third party options (see table below) 1,050,000 1989 Stock Option Plan (see below) 432,000 1989 Nonstatutory Plan (see below) 25,000 1995 Stock Option Plan (as amended in 1998, see below) 8,000,000 Warrants issued in private placements: Class C warrants, expired during 1997 0 Class D warrants, expired during 1997 0 Class AA warrants ($0.65, 2002, see above) 1,075,000 Class BB warrants ($0.72, 2002, see above) 25,000 Class CC warrants ($1.03, 2002, see above) 10,000 Class DD warrants ($1.75, 2002, see above) 2,400,000 Class EE warrants ($0.80, 2002 see Note 6) 500,000 ---------- 24,113,000 ========== Class B and Class E Warrants - The Company's Class B warrants were issued in connection with a 1990 public offering of securities of the Company. The Class E Warrants were issued in connection with a "Discounted Warrant Plan" offered to holders of the Class A Warrants (all of which have been exercised or expired) and Class B Warrants issued in connection with the public offering in 1990. The Class B and Class E Warrants are presently exercisable, were due to expire in January 1998, have been extended to October 17, 1998 and are subject to anti-dilution provisions. As a result of the financings completed in 1997, the anti-dilution provisions of the warrants were triggered and resulting in the following revisions to the warrant price and the number of shares subject to warrant:
Exercise price Number of shares Exercise price Number of shares -------------- ---------------- -------------- ---------------- per warrant per warrant per share subject to warrant ----------- ----------- --------- ------------------ Class B Warrants: - ----------------- Previous $1.50 1.2 $1.25 969,191 Current $1.14 1.6 $ .71 1,292,254 Class E Warrants: - ----------------- Previous $1.25 1.1 $1.14 540,747 Current $0.95 1.5 $ .63 737,382
The 1998 private placement discussed in the following paragraphs may trigger the operation of antidilution provisions of the Class B and Class E warrants and will trigger the operation of the antidilution provisions of the 10%/13% Convertible Notes discussed in Note 6. 1998 Private placement of common shares and warrants Beginning on April 14, 1998, the Company commenced a private offering of its common stock and warrants. The offering contemplates aggregate proceeds of $2,000,000 for the purchase of 1,980,198 shares of common stock of the Company and warrants to purchase 250,000 shares of common stock at $2.05 for three years by seven accredited investors. Through April 16, 1998 the Company issued 1,881,188 shares of common stock, together with warrants to purchase 237,500 common shares at $2.05 per share for three years, to private investors in exchange for $1,900,000, less $475,000 held in escrow pending the Company's filing of a registration statement covering the shares and shares underlying the warrants prior to June 13, 1998. The Company has agreed to register such shares and has agreed to penalties of 3% per month should the registration statement not be declared effective within 130 days. The number of shares issuable to these investors will be "repriced" pursuant to a schedule initially in $300,000 increments (4) and then in $200,000 increments (4) on eight occasions commencing with the effectiveness of a registration statement covering the shares and again 60 days later and then in 30 day intervals. On such dates, the investor would receive the additional number of shares, if any, that result from the difference between the number of shares actually issued and the number of shares which would have been issued using a 23% discount to the market price, as defined, at that time. The operation of this provision could result in significantly greater number of shares being issued. The investors have agreed not to sell any shares before at least 120 days after the closing. The Company is exposed to significant penalties for failure to have a registration statement declared effective covering such shares within 130 days, has agreed not to issue certain financings and has agreed to pay a placement agent a 6.5% fee in connection with the transaction. F-14 BCAM International, Inc. and subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 1997 Stock Options In June 1995, the shareholders of the Company approved the adoption of the 1995 Stock Option Plan (the "1995 Plan"). The 1995 Plan supercedes and closes all prior option plans and provides for the granting of incentive stock options ("ISOs") and/or nonqualified stock options to employees, directors or consultants of the Company to purchase an aggregate of 2,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock. The option price per share for ISOs granted under the 1995 Plan shall not be less than the fair market value of the Company's common stock on the date of grant. Options vest and are exercisable over various periods up to ten years from the date of grant. No option may be granted under the 1995 Plan after June 2005. At December 31, 1996, there were 219,500 shares available for granting of future options. In 1997, the Company issued option grants under the 1995 Plan to purchase an aggregate of 3,984,000 shares of Common Stock of the Company, approximately 3,764,500 of which were subject to approval by shareholders of an amendment to the Company's 1995 Plan. The amendment, approved at the 1997 Annual Meeting of Shareholders in February 1998, increases the number of shares under the 1995 Plan from 2,000,000 to 8,000,000 shares. In 1989, the shareholders of the Company approved the adoption of a 1989 Stock Option Plan (the "1989 Plan"). The 1989 Plan provided for the granting of incentive stock options and/or nonqualified stock options to key employees and consultants to purchase shares of the Company's common stock at a price per share not less than the fair market value on the date of grant. In 1992, the Plan was amended to: (a) increase the number of shares to 1,565,957, (b) permit the granting of nonqualified stock options at a price per share less than the fair market value of the Company's common stock on the date of grant and (c) permit options to be exercised up to two years after termination of employment under certain circumstances. Options vest and are exercisable over various periods up to six years from the date of grant. In 1989, the Company also adopted a Nonstatutory Stock Option Plan (the "1989 Nonstatutory Plan") for directors. Under the 1989 Nonstatutory Plan, the Company could grant options for the purchase of an aggregate of 355,000 shares of common stock at not less than fair market value at the date of grant. Pursuant to the terms of the 1995 Plan, no options may be granted under the 1989 Plan or the 1989 Nonstatutory Plan subsequent to June 22, 1995. Option activity during each of the two years ended December 31, 1997 for the 1989 Plan and the 1989 Nonstatutory Plan is summarized as follows: F-15 BCAM International, Inc. and subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 1997

Such approval was received in February 1998. Generally accepted accounting principles require that a charge to compensation expense be made if the market value of the stock on the date of shareholder approval exceeds the market value on the date of grant. The closing bid price of the Company's common stock on the date of the shareholder vote was approximately $1.41. Options to purchase approximately 1.8 million shares were granted at prices that, although fair market value at the time of grant, were lower than $1.41. As a result, the Company will record a charge to compensation expense of approximately $1,200,000 in the first quarter of 1998. Primarily as a result of the acquisition activity of the Company, 550,000 fully vested nonstatutory stock options were granted to eight investment bankers and other vendors who, as third parties, are outside of the 1995 Plan, as amended. The options are exercisable for from two to ten years, 375,000 shares at a price of $0.75 per share and 175,000 shares at a price of $1.52 per share. During 1996, the Company granted 100,000 fully vested nonstatutory stock options at fair market value to a third party, which are exercisable for a period of ten years at a price of $1.17 per share. In addition, during 1995, the Company granted 300,000 fully vested nonstatutory stock options at fair market value to a third party, which are exercisable for a F-16 BCAM International, Inc. and subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 1997 period of eighteen months at a price of $1.05 per share, and 5,000 nonstatutory stock options at fair market value to a third party, which were cancelled in 1996. Further, in 1994 the Company granted 100,000 nonstatutory stock options at fair market value to a third party, which vest ratably over two years and are exercisable for a period of five years at a price of $1.69 per share. At December 31, 1997, 1,050,000 of these options are outstanding. The following table summarizes information about the options to third parties (1,050,000) and warrants not reflected as granted as part of any option plan.

The fair value for these options was estimated at the date of the grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. The Company's pro forma information follows: December 31, 1997 1996 ----------- ----------- Pro forma net loss: Continuing operations $(4,995,000) $(1,617,000) Discontinued operations (1,376,000) (245,000) ----------- ----------- Total $(6,371,000) $(1,862,000) =========== =========== Pro forma net loss per share: Basic Continuing operations $ (.31) $ (.11) Discontinued operations (.09) (.02) ----------- ----------- $ (.40) $ (.13) =========== =========== Assuming dilution Continuing operations $ (.32) (.11) Discontinued operations (.09) (.02) ----------- ----------- $ (.41) $ (.13) =========== =========== The fair value of these options at the date of the grant was estimated with the following weighted average assumptions for 1997 and 1996: risk free interest rates ranging from 6.25% to 6.36%, no dividend yield, volatility factor of the expected market price of the Company's common stock ranging from 49% to 76%, and a weighted average expected life of the options ranging from six to ten years. Because Statement 123 is applicable only to options granted subsequent to December 31, 1994 and employee stock options granted vest over a period from one to four years, its pro forma effect will not be fully reflected in pro forma net loss.

Discontinued Operations Ergonomic Consulting Services Division - In December 1997, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a plan to sell the operations of its Ergonomic Consulting Services Division ("ECSD"). ECSD has not generated operating profits and is no longer considered a core asset in light of the Company's current strategy. The plan of disposition involved finding a strategic buyer who would take over the Company's contractual commitments (some of which are long-term) to consulting division customers and liquidating the remaining assets through collection (with respect to receivables) or sale or disposal (with respect to furniture and equipment). On February 9, 1998, the Company closed on the sale of the revenue contract rights and transfer of the obligations for certain related personnel of the ECSD to a third party. Terms of the sale call for the payment of a portion of future revenues of the contracts sold as well as a portion of certain follow-on work, or referrals for work provided by the Company. At December 31, 1997, assets of the ECSD were approximately, 155,000, consisting principally of billed and unbilled receivables, and liabilities were approximately $76,000 consisting principally of trade payables. The operations of the ECSD from January 1, 1998 through disposal on February 9, 1998 did not generate a loss due to the high utilization of personnel on contracts during that time. Approximately $50,000 has been accrued in the December 31, 1997 financial statements as a loss on disposal representing management's estimate of the write-off of furniture and equipment and accrual of certain lease costs. There was no material severance paid in connection with the discontinuance of the ECSD. Revenues, gross margin and net loss for ECSD are approximately the following for the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996: 1997 1996 ---- ---- Revenues $ 467,000 $ 576,000 Gross Margin $ 183,000 $ 247,000 Net Loss $(356,000) $(245,000) HumanCAD Systems Operations - During late February 1998, as a result of specific events at the time, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a plan to seek alternative value for the HumanCAD Systems operations ("HCAD") by (i) initially reducing the activity and (ii) seeking a strategic or management buyer for the operation. In December 1997, the Company had reached agreement with a funding source to provide approximately $2.5 million for development and marketing of the Company's existing and planned HCAD ergonomic modeling software products. In January 1998, the Company commenced executing the business plan contemplated by the financing but in late February 1998, the funding source advised the Company that they were no longer willing to go forward with the planned financing. The Company is seeking a strategic or possible management buyer for a majority of HCAD. The measurement date for the discontinuance is February 1998, at which time losses from January 1, 1998 through February 1998 will be recorded and a provision for discontinued operations (principally severance and non-cancellable lease costs) will be made. Such amount is expected to exceed $500,000. The Company has reflected the 1997 operations of HCAD as a discontinued operation in the December 31, 1997 financial statements. At December 31, 1997, assets of the HCAD were approximately $98,000 consisting principally of customer receivables, certain computer and communications equipment, furniture, and inventory. Liabilities were approximately $60,000 consisting principally of trade payables and payroll. Revenues, gross margin and net loss for HCAD are approximately the F-18 BCAM International, Inc. and subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 1997 following for the year ended December 31, 1997 (HCAD did not operate in 1996): 1997 ---- Revenues $ 135,000 Gross Margin $ 125,000 Net Loss $(1,000,000) 9. Commitments and contingencies Leases - The Company leases its office space for a term extending through March 31, 2000. In August, 1996, this lease was modified to reflect a reduction in leased space. Additionally, the Company has entered into various operating leases for equipment. Future minimum payments under noncancellable operating leases for years ending December 31 are as follows: 1998 $541,000 1999 406,000 2000 256,000 2001 77,000 Thereafter 88,000 Rent expense in 1997 and 1996, under all operating leases, was approximately $550,000 and $179,000, respectively. Collective bargaining agreement - Approximately 155 of Drew Shoe's approximately 255 employees are covered by a collective bargaining agreement with a union. The contract covering such employees is due to expire in May 1998. Litigation - In January 1998, a third party filed suit against the Company's Drew Shoe subsidiary alleging that it is due a fee of not less than $297,000 in connection with the Company's acquisition of Drew Shoe. Drew Shoe disputes this claim and the Company intends to vigorously defend this action. There are no other material legal proceedings pending against the Company. 10. Pension The Company has two noncontributory, defined benefit pension plans covering substantially all employees. Benefits under the plan covering nonunion employees are based on average monthly compensation and years of service. Benefits under the plan covering union employees are based on years of service. The Company's policy is to make contributions to the plans sufficient to meet minimum funding requirements. Effective September 3, 1997, the Company's non-union plan was frozen and no future benefits will accrue to participants in the plan. The net pension liability at December 31, 1997 reflects the result of these plan changes. A summary of the components of net periodic pension cost for the period from September 22, 1997 to December 31, 1997 is as follows: Service cost $ 9,000 Interest 33,000 Actual return on plan assets (14,000) Amortization and deferral (4,000) -------- Net pension cost $ 24,000 ======== F-19 BCAM International, Inc. and subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 1997 The following table sets forth the funded status and amounts recognized in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 1997: Actuarial present value of benefit obligation: Vested benefit $1,525,000 Nonvested benefits 70,000 ---------- Accumulated and projected benefit obligation 1,595,000 Plan assets at fair market value 1,056,000 ---------- Accumulated benefit obligations in excess of plan assets 539,000 Accrued pension cost $ 539,000 Significant assumptions used in the accounting for the defined benefit plans were as follows: Discount rate 7.00% Expected long-term rate of return on assets 8.25% The plans assets are invested in an annuity investment fund, certificates of deposit, insurance contracts and interest bearing cash accounts. 11. Other Other assets- Other noncurrent assets principally include patent costs of approximately $147,000 (net of related amortization of approximately $61,000), intangible pension assets (approximately $106,000) and cash surrender value of life insurance (approximately $88,000). Goodwill (preliminary) in connection with the Drew acquisition is included in other assets and totals approximately $21,000. Other non-current liabilities- Other non-current liabilities consist principally of accrued pension cost and certain non-current obligations under contracts and commitments in connection with the acquisition of Drew Shoe. Costs of financings not completed- In the third quarter of 1997, the Company was able to secure more favorable acquisition financing and credit facility for its acquisition of Drew Shoe than it had originally expected. As a result, the Company elected not to complete a proposed acquisition financing and a proposed credit facility. Costs associated with such uncompleted financings of approximately $130,000 were charged to Interest and financing costs in the year ended December 31, 1997. Charges to fourth quarter operations - Significant charges to operations in the fourth quarter of 1997 include: (i) approximately $175,000 for the estimated value of options granted to consultants in May and September 1997, (ii) accrual of contractual management bonuses for three executives of approximately $75,000 (including $25,000 related to discontinued operations), (iii) write off of approximately $75,000 of capitalized software costs no longer considered realizable (included in discontinued operations) and (iv) costs of approximately $235,000 related to a collaborative research effort (microvalve) and certain software development costs. F-20 BCAM International, Inc. and subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 1997 Advertising expense - Advertising expense for Drew Shoe were approximately $125,000 for the period of inclusion of Drew Shoe in the Company's financial statements for 1997. Such costs are expensed as incurred. Significant customer - One customer accounts for approximately 11% of the Company's revenues for the year ended December 31, 1997. This information is not meaningful for the year ended December 31, 1996 due to the level of revenue and the discontinued operations.

See Notes to Financial Statements. F-25 Note 1 - Business and summary of accounting policies: Business: Drew Shoe Corporation (the "Company") designs, manufactures, imports, markets and distributes women's and men's shoes for sale to independent retailers and through Company-owned retail operations throughout the United States. Basis of accounting/Use of estimates: The accompanying financial statements are prepared on the historical basis of accounting of the Company prior to its acquisition, on September 22, 1997, by BCAM International, Inc. ("BCAM"). Results of operations and cash flows on the historical basis of accounting may not be indicative of future results of operations. This is because, among other factors, the additional depreciation, amortization or other charges which may result from the revaluation of the assets and liabilities of the Company in connection with the acquisition. Further, the recording of other acquisition adjustments, as well as future events and conditions, may affect comparisons. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. Financial instruments and off-balance-sheet risk: Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and trade accounts receivable. The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts that, at times, may exceed Federally insured limits. Concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade receivables are limited due to the large number of customers comprising the Company's customer base, their dispersion across different geographic areas, and generally short payment terms. In addition, the Company routinely assesses the financial strength of its customers. Inventories: Inventories are stated at the lower of cost, determined on a first-in, first-out basis, or market. Property and equipment: Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Goodwill: Goodwill, included in other assets, is amortized on a straight-line basis over periods ranging from five to twenty years. Revenue recognition: Revenue from wholesale product sales is recognized at the time products are shipped. Revenue from retail product sales through Company-owned retail operations is recognized at the point of sale. Income taxes: The Company has elected to be treated as an "S" Corporation under the applicable sections of the Internal Revenue Code. Under these sections, corporate income or loss, in general, is allocated to the stockholders for inclusion in their personal income tax returns. Accordingly, there is no provision for Federal income taxes in the accompanying financial statements. The Company has also elected to be treated as an "S" Corporation in the states in which it files corporate income tax returns. Accordingly, no provision for state income taxes has been provided in the accompanying financial statements. Advertising: F-26 The Company expenses the cost of advertising as incurred. Advertising costs charged to operations were approximately $321,000 and $364,000 for the period from January 1, 1997 through September 22, 1997 and for the year ended December 31, 1996, respectively. Note 2 - Inventories: Inventories used in the computation of cost of goods sold were approximately $6,378,000 and $6,694,000 at September 22, 1997 and December 31, 1996, respectively. Note 3 - Property and equipment: Property and equipment consists of the following at September 22, 1997 and December 31, 1996, respectively, and were amortized utilizing the estimated useful lives indicated below: Range of Estimated September December Useful Lives 22, 1997 31, 1996 ------------ -------- -------- Land $ 100,000 $100,000 Building and improvements 10-35 years 857,000 865,325 Machinery and equipment 5-13 years 2,742,000 2,614,715 ---------- ---------- Total 3,699,000 3,580,040 Less accumulated depreciation 2,397,000 2,229,895 ---------- ---------- Total 1,302,000 $1,350,145 ---------- ---------- Note 4 - Notes payable - and long term debt: Charges for interest included in the accompanying Statements of Operations and Cash Flows are based principally upon the following historical borrowings of the Company:
Approximate Weighted Average Borrowings ---------------- To September 22, 1997 -------- Revolving credit (prime) and Bankers Acceptance ($500,000 at 7.25%) facility with a Bank $2,164,000 Mortgage Note payable with interest at prime plus .25 375,000 Notes payable to related party with interest at prime 214,000 Debentures payable to related parties with interest at 10% 845,000 All other 25,000 ---------- Total $3,623,000 ==========
The Revolving Credit and Banker Acceptance facility, Mortgage Notes and Debentures were repaid on September 22, 1997 in connection with the acquisition by BCAM. Interest charged to the Statement of Operations for related parties approximated $108,000 and $119,000 in the period ended September 22, 1997 and the year ended December 31, 1996. Principal payment requirements on the above obligations, as adjusted for the refinancing discussed in Note 9, in each of the five years subsequent to December 31, 1997 are as follows: Year Ending December 31, Amount ------------ ------ 1998 $ 148,000 1999 2,980,000 2000 694,000 2001 2,000 2002 2,000 F-27 Note 5 - Pension plans: The Company has two noncontributory, defined benefit pension plans covering substantially all employees. Benefits under the plan covering nonunion employees are based on average monthly compensation and years of service. Benefits under the plan covering union employees are based on years of service. The Company's policy is to make contributions to the plans sufficient to meet minimum funding requirements. Effective September 3, 1997, the Company's non-union plan was frozen and no future benefits will accrue to participants in the plan. The net pension liability at December 31, 1997 reflects the result of these plan changes with no material curtailment gain or loss. A summary of the components of net periodic pension cost for the period from January 1, 1997 to September 22, 1997 and for the year ended December 31, 1996 is as follows: 1997 1996 -------- -------- Service cost $ 28,000 $136,000 Interest 100,000 144,000 Actual return on plan assets (40,000) (46,000) Amortization and deferral (13,000) (13,000) -------- -------- Net pension cost $ 75,000 $221,000 ======== ======== Significant assumptions used in the accounting for the defined benefit plans were as follows: Discount rate 7.00% Expected long-term rate of return on assets 8.25% Effective September 3, 1997, the accrual of future benefits under the nonunion defined benefit pension plan was suspended. The effect of the curtailment of the nonunion plan on the Company's financial statements at December 31, 1996 cannot currently be determined. Note 6 - Commitments and other matters: Lease commitments: The Company leases retail space and certain machinery and equipment under operating leases that expire through 2003. Related rent expense amounted to approximately $269,000 and $369,000 for the period from January 1, 1997 through September 22, 1997 and for the year ended December 31, 1996, respectively. Future minimum rental payments required under the noncancelable operating leases in years subsequent to December 31, 1997 are as follows: Year Ending December 31, Amount ------------ ------ 1998 $390,000 1999 251,000 2000 100,000 2001 38,000 2002 28,000 Collective bargaining agreement: At September 22, 1997, approximately 60% of the Company's workforce is represented under a collective bargaining agreement which expires May 31, 1998. Concentrations: The Company relies to a large extent on medical footwear for sales. Approximately 60% of the Company's sales are women's shoes. One customer accounts for more than approximately 11% of the Company's sales. Note 7 - Provision for income taxes: A reconciliation of income taxes based on pre-tax income and the Federal statutory rate to the Company's effective F-28 rate for the period from January 1, 1997 through September 22, 1997 and the year ended December 31, 1996 follows: Period ended Year ended September December 22, 1997 31, 1996 -------- -------- Federal statutory income tax rate 34.0% 34.0% Increase (decrease) resulting from: State income taxes, net of Federal tax benefit 7.8 7.0 "S" Corporation income not subject to Federal or state tax (48.6) (42.7) Other 6.8 1.7 ---- --- Effective rate -- % -- % ==== ==== Note 8 - Unaudited proforma income tax information: Unaudited proforma income tax information as if the Company had been a "C" Corporation subject to Federal and state income taxes follows: Period ended Year ended September December 22, 1997 31, 1996 -------- -------- Income before income taxes $191,000 $ 26,000 Pro forma provision for income taxes (73,000) (10,000) -------- -------- Pro forma net income $118,000 $ 16,000 ======== ======== Note 9 - Subsequent events: Effective September 22, 1997, the Company's stockholders sold all of the outstanding common stock of the Company to BCAM International, Inc.
