DIGITAL BIOMETRICS, INC. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (1) DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION Digital Biometrics, Inc., (the Company) was incorporated in Minnesota in May, 1985 and reincorporated in Delaware in December, 1986. The Company is a developer, manufacturer and marketer of identification products based on electro-optical imaging technologies. The Company's principal product, the TENPRINTER(R) system is a computer-based, inkless "live-scan" fingerprint system that electronically reads a fingerprint and creates a digital image, which can then either be printed on an attached printer or transmitted electronically to a central printing or storage site. The TENPRINTER system is designed for use by, and is being actively marketed to, law enforcement agencies and other organizations requiring a high resolution fingerprint image for identification cards or similar applications. The Company's performance in any one quarter is not necessarily indicative of sales trends or future performance. The nature of the law enforcement market and the government procurement process are expected to continue to produce an irregular and unpredictable revenue cycle for the Company. The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. For further information, refer to financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 1995. (2) ACCOUNTING POLICIES INVENTORY Inventory is valued at standard cost which approximates the lower of first-in, first-out (FIFO) cost or market. MARKETABLE SECURITIES Marketable securities consist primarily of collateralized mortgage backed securities. Net realized and unrealized gains and losses are determined on the specific identification cost basis (see note 3). Unrealized gains and losses are reflected as a separate component of stockholders' equity. Realized losses on sales of marketable securities are reported as a reduction in interest income. There were no realized losses on sales of marketable securities for the three-month periods ended March 31, 1996 or 1995. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT Furniture and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation and amortization are computed on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives, generally 3 to 5 years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the estimated useful life of the asset or lease term whichever is shorter. PATENTS, TRADEMARKS, COPYRIGHTS AND LICENSES Costs associated with patents, trademarks and copyrights are capitalized and amortized over sixty months or the remaining life of the patent, trademark or copyright, whichever is shorter. The cost of software licenses related to purchased software are capitalized and amortized over thirty-six months or the life of the license, whichever is shorter. Management periodically assesses the amortization period and recoverability of the carrying amount of intangible assets based upon an estimation of their value and future benefits of the recorded asset. Management has concluded that the carrying amount of the intangible assets is realizable. WARRANTY COSTS Estimated product warranty costs are accrued at date of shipment. Accrued warranty costs at March 31, 1996 were $54,000 compared with $58,000 at September 30, 1995. REVENUE AND REVENUE RECOGNITION The Company's identification system sales include the delivery of integrated hardware and software. Revenues from system sales are generally recognized on the date of shipment. The Company's standard terms of sale are payment due net in thirty days, f.o.b. Digital Biometrics, Inc. Terms of sale and shipment for certain procurements by municipal or other government agencies may, however, be subject to negotiation. In cases where the Company is required to purchase a performance bond or to deposit collateral in accordance with the terms of a contract, the Company's policy is to defer revenues under such contracts until the amount shipped exceeds the amount of the performance collateral or until the security is released by the bonding company. Maintenance revenues are recognized over the life of the contract on a straight-line basis. Maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. The Company's performance for any period is not necessarily indicative of sales trends or future performance. The nature of the law enforcement market and the government procurement process are expected to continue to produce an irregular and unpredictable revenue cycle for the Company. SIGNIFICANT CUSTOMERS AND CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK The Company extends credit to state and local governments in connection with sales of products to law enforcement agencies. Approximately 54% of customer accounts receivable at March 31, 1996 were from government agencies, of which 62% was from a single customer. Approximately 46% of customer accounts receivable at March 31, 1996 were from non-government agencies, of which 81% was from a single customer. For the three-month period ended March 31, 1996, sales to two customers accounted for 21% and 10% of total sales. Sales to two customers during the three-month period ended March 31, 1995 accounted for 47% and 13% of period total sales. For the six-month period ended March 31, 1996, sales to two customers accounted for 33% and 10% of total sales. Sales to one customer during the six-month period ended March 31, 1995 accounted for 39% of period total sales. Export sales were 18% for the three-month period ended March 31, 1996 and 1% for the same period in 1995. Export sales were 32% for the six-month period ended March 31, 1996 and 2% for the same period in 1995. ENGINEERING AND DEVELOPMENT ARRANGEMENTS Engineering and development costs are expensed as incurred. Engineering and development expenses for the three-month period ended March 31, 1995 are net of reimbursements of $98,000 from a company with which there is a teaming agreement on an international development project. Engineering and development expenses for the six-month periods ended March 31, 1996 and 1995 are net of reimbursements of $462,000 and $435,000, respectively. STATEMENT OF CASH FLOWS For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments and certificates of deposit purchased with an original maturity date of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents include primarily U.S. Government money market funds and A-1, P-1 rated commercial paper. SUPPLEMENTAL DISCLOSURE OF CASH FLOW INFORMATION: Six Months Ended March 31, 1996 1995 ---------- ---------- Cash paid during the period for interest $9,866 $10,008 ========== ========== For supplemental disclosure of non-cash investing and financing activities see notes 7 and 8. NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE Net loss per common share is determined by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and dilutive common share equivalents outstanding. Common share equivalents have been excluded from the computation of net loss per share as their effect is anti-dilutive. INCOME TAXES Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amount and tax basis of assets and liabilities. (3) MARKETABLE SECURITIES Investments in marketable securities have maturities ranging from 2005 to 2016. The unrealized loss for available-for-sale marketable securities is as follows. March 31, September 30, 1996 1995 -------------- -------------- Fair market value $5,834,025 $5,780,707 Amortized cost 5,955,083 5,957,184 -------------- -------------- Unrealized loss $ (121,058) $ (176,477) ============== ============== (4) INVENTORIES Inventory is valued at standard which approximates the lower of first-in, first-out (FIFO) cost or market. Inventories consist of the following. March 31, September 30, 1996 1995 -------------- -------------- Raw materials $2,322,596 $1,187,955 Work in process 276,556 197,947 Finished goods 383,803 489,780 -------------- -------------- $2,982,955 $1,875,682 ============== ============== Certain of the Company's components used in the manufacture of its TENPRINTER system are currently supplied by a single vendor. Secondary sourcing is not expected to be available for the next several months. Delays in product deliveries to customers may occur should the supplier be unable to deliver the components. (5) LINE OF CREDIT The Company has a $200,000 line of credit with First Bank Minneapolis, secured by cash deposits. Borrowings under the line bear interest at the prime rate (8.25% on March 31, 1996), is payable upon demand and expires in March 1997. There were no amounts borrowed under the line at March 31, 1996. The Company has a $4,000,000 line of credit with Norwest Bank Minnesota N.A. Borrowings under this line of credit are secured by marketable securities and are limited to the amount of marketable securities held as collateral by the bank. Borrowings under the line bear interest at the prime rate (8.25% on March 31, 1996), is payable upon demand and expires in May 1996. There were no amounts borrowed under the line at March 31, 1996. (6) ACCRUED EXPENSES Accrued expenses consist of: March 31, September 30, 1996 1995 ------------ ------------- Salaries $118,982 $ 127,281 Vacation 129,233 105,734 Interest 264,914 2,799 Payroll taxes 234,744 500,000 Sales taxes 7,360 34,818 Warranty 54,450 58,100 Other 189,951 216,013 ------------ ------------- $999,634 $1,044,745 ============ ============= (7) CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES On September 29, 1995, the Company completed a private placement to offshore accredited investors of $10,900,000 of 8% Convertible Debentures due September 29, 1998 (the "Debentures"). Net proceeds to the Company after placement fees but before legal and other expenses were $10,109,750. The Debentures are convertible one third after 45 days, one third after 75 days and one third after 105 days at the option of the Debenture holder. The Company has the right to redeem the debentures prior to conversion. The conversion price is equal to the lesser of $7.00 per common share or 85% of the average trading price for any five consecutive trading days before conversion. This beneficial conversion feature has an intrinsic value of $1,924,000 which has been recorded as a charge to interest expense. The intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion feature is to be allocated to additional paid-in capital with the resulting discount on the debt resulting in a non-cash interest expense charge to earnings (loss) over the conversion period. Interest accrued on the Debentures is payable in common stock at the time of conversion at the conversion price as described above. In addition to a cash placement fee, a warrant to purchase 112,893 shares of the Company's common stock at $8.40 per share was granted to the placement agent for this offering. The warrant was valued at $112,893, which is reflected as a discount on the Debentures and is being amortized as interest expense over the term of the Debentures. Net proceeds to the Company are being used for working capital, product development and other general corporate purposes. As of March 31, 1996, the Company has issued 1,348,769 shares of common stock for the conversion of principal aggregating $4,400,000 of the 8% Convertible Debentures plus $122,000 of accrued interest at an average conversion price of $3.35 per share. (8) STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY Effective March 31, 1996, the Company issued 16,831 shares of common stock to satisfy the Company's discretionary matching to employees electing participation in the Company's 401(k) retirement plan. This issuance increased common stock and additional paid-in capital by $94,674 and resulted in compensation expense of the same amount. Effective with their election at the annual stockholders' meeting held on February 21, 1996, the Company granted 17,456 shares of restricted common stock to its non-employee directors. The grant resulted in $72,000 in additional common stock issued and an equal amount of deferred compensation expense which is being amortized on a straight-line basis over the three-year restricted period. (9) LEASE COMMITMENTS The Company leases its primary office and production facility under an operating lease that expires in April, 2001. Annual base rent under the lease agreement is approximately $400,000, including a pro rata share for property taxes, maintenance and other operating expenses. The Company leases a separate sales and service office in Los Angeles, California under an operating lease that expires in August, 1996 and a sales office in Washington, D.C. on a year-to-year lease arrangement. Rent expense for the six months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995 was $165,000 and $164,000, respectively. (10) LITIGATION On June 1, 1995, the Company filed a complaint for patent infringement against Identix, Inc., of Sunnyvale, California, in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California. The complaint alleges that Identix has willfully and deliberately infringed a Company patent through the manufacture, use and/or sale of competing products. The complaint seeks, among other things, an injunction prohibiting further infringement as well as unspecified monetary damages. Identix has responded to the complaint alleging, among other purported defenses, non-infringement and patent invalidity. This lawsuit is in its discovery stage and any specific outcome is not yet determinable. There are no material lawsuits pending or, to the Company's knowledge, threatened against the Company. (11) RESTATEMENT On March 28, 1997, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) staff announced its position on the accounting treatment for the issuance of convertible debt securities with beneficial conversion features such as that contained in the Company's convertible debentures issued in September 1995. The SEC staff's announcement requires retroactive determination using the intrinsic-value method of the beneficial conversion feature. The intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion feature is to be allocated to additional paid-in capital with the resulting discount on the debt resulting in a non-cash interest expense charge to earnings (loss) over the conversion period. As a result of this SEC announcement, the Company is restating its results for the six-month period ended March 31, 1996 to reflect the in-the-money beneficial conversion feature of the convertible debentures which were issued by the Company in September 1995. An additional charge of $1,923,529 has been recorded for the six-month period ended March 31, 1996 for the in-the-money beneficial conversion feature which vested during the first quarter of fiscal 1996. As a result, interest expense, net loss and net loss per share for the six-month period ended March 31, 1996 were restated from $552,359, $3,354,018 and $0.41 to $2,475,888, $5,277,547 and $0.65, respectively. This restatement had no effect on cash flows or total stockholders' equity. DIGITAL BIOMETRICS, INC. THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1996 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS GENERAL The Company develops, manufactures, assembles and markets identification systems based on electro-optical imaging technologies. Most of the Company's sales have been to state and local law enforcement agencies. To date, the Company's sales have consisted primarily of TENPRINTER systems and related peripheral equipment and software. The nature of the law enforcement market and the government procurement process is subject to budgetary, economic and political considerations which may vary significantly from state to state and among different agencies. These market characteristics, along with the recent and continuing development of the live-scan electronic fingerprint industry, have resulted in and are expected to continue to result in an irregular revenue cycle for the Company and any prediction of future trends is inherently difficult. The Company believes, however, that its principal product line, which is designed to be sold to law enforcement agencies, is a leader in its marketplace. To the extent that funds become available to such customers for procurement purposes, the Company should benefit from the continuing development of this market. The Company generally recognizes product sales on the date of shipment. The Company's standard terms of sale are payment due net in 30 days, f.o.b. the Company. Terms of sale and shipment for certain procurements by municipal or other government agencies may, however, be subject to negotiation. In cases where the Company is required to purchase a performance bond or to deposit collateral in accordance with the terms of a contract, the Company's policy is to defer recognition of revenues from such contracts until the amount shipped exceeds the amount of the performance collateral or until the security is released by the bonding company. Maintenance revenues are recognized over the life of the contract on a straight-line basis. Maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1996 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1995 Total sales were $1,259,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1996 compared with $2,665,000 for the same period in 1995. Identification system product sales were $885,000 in 1996 compared with $2,350,000 in 1995, a decrease of 62%. This decrease resulted primarily from a decrease in the number of TENPRINTER systems sold from 20 during the three-month period in the prior-year to 8 during the current-year period. The decrease in units sold is directly related to a transition during the quarter to a new generation "S Series" TENPRINTER system and a decision by management to delay deliveries of the new system to the last half of the current fiscal year. For the three-month period ended March 31, 1996, sales to two customers accounted for approximately 21% and 10% of total sales. Sales to two customers during the three months ended March 31, 1995 accounted for approximately 47% and 13% of total sales. Product maintenance and service revenues were $374,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1996 compared with $314,000 for the same period in 1995. This increase is due primarily to a larger installed base of TENPRINTER systems. Overall gross margins for the three months ended March 31, 1996 were 19% as compared with 44% of sales for the same period in 1995. Gross margins on identification system sales were 42% in 1996 compared with 53% in 1995. This decrease was due primarily to higher manufacturing costs per TENPRINTER system produced. The higher cost per unit was due primarily to decreased economies of scale from the decreased number of systems manufactured and sold during the three-month period ended March 31, 1996. Product maintenance and service margins for the three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995 were -37% and -30% of maintenance and support revenues, respectively. The increased costs of product maintenance and support are due primarily to building of base field service operations to accommodate maintenance of TENPRINTER systems now located in 37 states. Sales and marketing expenses for the three-month period ended March 31, 1996 were 39% of total sales compared to 22% for the same three-month period in 1995. This increase is due primarily to the lower sales level and international marketing efforts. Engineering and development expenses were 94% of total sales for the three-month period ended March 31, 1996 compared to 19% for the same period a year ago. The 1996 increase is due primarily to the lower sales level and new product development efforts. Engineering and development expenses for the three-month period ending March 31, 1995 is net of reimbursements of $98,000 related to an international development project. General and administrative expenses for the three-month period ended March 31, 1996 were 39% of total sales compared to 13% for the same period in 1995. This increase is due primarily to the lower sales level and increased legal expenses related to the patent infringement lawsuit. Interest income increased to $169,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1996 from $97,000 for the same period in 1995, primarily due to cash received from the private placement of 8% convertible debentures issued on September 29, 1995. Interest expense increased to $244,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1996 from $8,000 for the same period in 1995, primarily due to accrued interest expense on the 8% convertible debentures issued on September 29, 1995. The Company incurred a net loss for the three-month period ended March 31, 1996 of $2,164,000 ($0.26 per share) as compared with $308,000 ($0.04 per share) for the same period in 1995. SIX MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1996 COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1995 Total sales were $3,778,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1996 compared with $5,004,000 for the same period in 1995. Identification system product sales were $3,054,000 compared with $4,424,000 in 1995. The number of TENPRINTER systems sold during the six months ended March 31, 1996 were 40, compared to 51 in the prior-year period. Included in the 1996 sales were $1,178,000 for 12 systems and system add-ons sold to an international customer. For the six-month period ended March 31, 1996, sales to two customers accounted for approximately 33% and 10% of total sales. Sales to one customer during the six months ended March 31, 1995 accounted for approximately 39% of total sales. Product maintenance and service revenues were $724,000 for the six months ended March 31, 1996 compared with $579,000 for the same period in 1995. This increase is due primarily to a larger installed base of TENPRINTER systems. Overall gross margins for the six months ended March 31, 1996 were 36% as compared with 43% of sales for the same period in 1995. Gross margins on identification system sales were 51% in 1996 compared with 52% in 1995. This decrease was due primarily to a decrease in the number of TENPRINTER systems sold, offset by higher margins on international shipments in fiscal 1996. Product maintenance and service margins for the six months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995 were -29% and -24% of maintenance and support revenues, respectively. The increased costs of product maintenance and support are due primarily to building of base field service operations to accommodate maintenance of TENPRINTER systems now located in 37 states. Sales and marketing expenses for the six-month period ended March 31, 1996 were 30% of total sales compared to 22% for the same six-month period in 1995. This increase is due primarily to the lower sales level and international marketing efforts. Engineering and development expenses were 56% of total sales for the six-month period ended March 31, 1996 compared to 20% for the same period a year ago. The 1996 increase is due primarily to the lower sales level and new product development efforts. Engineering and development expenses for the six-month periods ending March 31, 1996 and 1995 are net of reimbursements of $462,000 and $435,000, respectively, related to an international development project. General and administrative expenses for the six-month period ended March 31, 1996 were 26% of total sales compared to 14% for the same period in 1995. This increase is due primarily to the lower sales level and increased legal expenses related to the patent infringement lawsuit. Interest income increased to $371,000 for the six months ended March 31, 1996 from $195,000 for the same period in 1995, primarily due to cash received from the private placement of 8% convertible debentures issued on September 29, 1995 and a non-cash charge of $1,924,000 for the intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion feature of the convertible debentures. Interest expense increased to $2,476,000 for the six months ended March 31, 1996 from $10,000 for the same period in 1995, primarily due to a non-cash charge of $1,924,000 for the intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion feature of the convertible debentures, and to a lesser extent, accrued interest expense on the 8% convertible debentures issued on September 29, 1995. The Company incurred a net loss for the six-month period ended March 31, 1996 of $5,278,000 ($0.65 per share) as compared with $657,000 ($0.08 per share) for the same period in 1995. The net loss for the six-month period ended March 31, 1996 includes a non-cash interest expense charge of $1,924,000 ($0.24 per share) for the intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion feature of the Company's convertible debentures. INFLATION The Company does not believe inflation has significantly impacted revenues or expenses. NET OPERATING LOSS CARRYFORWARDS At March 31, 1996, the Company had carryforwards of net operating losses of approximately $20,200,000 that may allow the Company to reduce future income taxes that would otherwise be payable. Of this amount approximately $2,200,000 relates to compensation associated with the exercise of non-qualified stock options which, when realized, would result in approximately $880,000 credited to additional paid-in capital. The carryforwards expire annually beginning in 1999. The annual limitation on use of net operating losses is calculated by multiplying the value of the corporation immediately prior to the change in ownership by the long-term federal tax exempt rate. A total of $3,700,000 of the net operating loss carryforwards at March 31, 1996 is subject to an annual net operating loss limitation, estimated at $350,000, resulting from the change in control of the Company which occurred, for income tax purposes, on December 14, 1990, the date of the Company's initial public offering. If the limited carryforward amount for any tax year exceeds the regular taxable income for such year, then the unused portion may generally be carried forward to increase the annual limitation for the following year. Utilization of net operating losses aggregating $16,500,000 which were incurred subsequent to the change of ownership are not limited. However, any future ownership change could create a limitation with respect to these loss carryforwards. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES BACKGROUND For the period from the Company's inception in 1985 through March 31, 1996, limited revenues have resulted from product sales and at March 31, 1996, the Company's cumulative deficit was $22,638,000. Losses are expected to continue until the market development and acceptance of the technology incorporated into the Company's products provides product sales sufficient to cover the Company's operating expenses. CURRENT AND FUTURE OPERATIONS The Company's performance in any one reporting period is not necessarily indicative of sales trends or future performance. The nature of the law enforcement market and the government procurement process are expected to continue to result in an irregular and unpredictable revenue cycle for the Company. Net cash used in operating activities was $3,681,000 for the six months ended March 31, 1996 compared with $757,000 for the same period in 1995. This increase in cash used in operating activities was primarily a result of a larger net loss during the six-month period in 1996 as well as an increase in accounts receivable balances due primarily to international shipments and an increase in inventory from purchases for the new TENPRINTER Series-S production line. Net cash used in investing activities was $746,000 for the six months ended March 31, 1996 as compared with net cash provided by investing activities of $316,000 for the same period in 1995. Capital expenditures in 1996 and 1995 were primarily for engineering and manufacturing leasehold improvements and test fixtures. The Company's business does not require significant amounts of cash for capital expenditures because substantial amounts of the manufacturing and assembly processes utilized in the production of current products are performed by outside vendors, as directed by the Company. Specifically, the Company purchases electronics modules and standard mechanical assemblies from manufacturers of such goods. In addition, sheet metal components, optical components and specialized electronics modules are designed by the Company and manufactured to the Company's specifications by outside sources. Net cash provided by financing activities was $8,975,000 for the six months ended March 31, 1996 as compared with $426,000 for the same period in 1995. The increase is due to cash received from the issuance of 8% convertible debentures and repayments of outstanding borrowings on lines of credit. The Debentures include a beneficial conversion feature with an intrinsic value of $1,924,000 which has been recorded as a charge to interest expense. The intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion feature is to be allocated to additional paid-in capital with the resulting discount on the debt resulting in a non-cash interest expense charge to earnings (loss) over the conversion period. There were no borrowings under lines of credit at March 31, 1996. Historically, the Company has relied primarily on sales of common stock to satisfy its financing requirements. At March 31, 1996, the Company had $4,916,000 in cash and cash equivalents and $5,834,000 in marketable securities. The unrealized loss on marketable securities at March 31, 1996 was $121,000. The Company extends credit to state and local governments in connection with sales of products to law enforcement agencies. Approximately 54% of customer accounts receivable at March 31, 1996 were from government agencies, of which 62% was from a single customer. Approximately 46% of customer accounts receivable at March 31, 1996 were from non-government agencies, of which 81% was from a single customer. The Company has a $200,000 line of credit with First Bank Minneapolis, secured by cash deposits. Borrowings under the line bear interest at the prime rate (8.25% on March 31, 1996). The line is payable upon demand and expires in March 1997. There were no amounts borrowed under the line at March 31, 1996. The Company has a $4,000,000 line of credit with Norwest Bank Minnesota N.A. Borrowings under this line of credit are secured by marketable securities and are limited to the amount of marketable securities held as collateral by the bank. Borrowings under the line bear interest at the prime rate (8.25% on March 31, 1996). The line is payable upon demand and expires in May 1996. There were no amounts borrowed under the line at March 31, 1996. Management believes that cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities and cash generated from operations, together with available financing sources, are sufficient to meet current and foreseeable operating requirements.
