CIRTRAN CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Condensed Financial Statements -- The accompanying unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements include the accounts of CirTran Corporation
and its subsidiary (the "Company"). These financial statements are condensed
and, therefore, do not include all disclosures normally required by accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These statements
should be read in conjunction with the Company's annual financial statements
included in the Company's December 31, 2002 Annual Report on Form 10-KSB. In
particular, the Company's significant accounting principles were presented as
Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements in that report. In the opinion
of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation have been
included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and
consist of only normal recurring adjustments. The results of operations
presented in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for
the three months ended March 31, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the
results that may be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2003.
Stock-Based Compensation -- At March 31, 2003, the Company had one stock-based
employee compensation plan, which is described more fully in Note 6. The Company
accounts for the plan under APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees, and related interpretations. During the three months ended March 31,
2003 and 2002, the Company recognized compensation expense relating to stock
options and warrants of $72,500 and $0, respectively. The following table
illustrates the effect on net loss and basic and diluted loss per common share
as if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of Financial
Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Statement No. 123, Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation, to stock-based employee compensation:

Basic and diluted loss per common share as reported $ (0.00) $ (0.00)
Basic and diluted loss per common share pro forma (0.00) $ (0.00)
NOTE 2 - REALIZATION OF ASSETS
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared
in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern.
However, the Company sustained losses of $654,739 and $2,149,810 for the three
months ended March 31, 2003 and the year ended December 31, 2002, respectively.
As of March 31, 2003 and December 31, 2002, the Company had an accumulated
deficit of $15,885,041 and $15,230,302, respectively, and a total stockholders'
deficit of $4,278,836 and $3,894,097, respectively. In addition, the Company
used, rather than provided, cash in its operations in the amounts of $347,082
7
and $1,142,148 for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and the year ended
December 31, 2002, respectively. Since February of 2000, the Company has
operated without a line of credit. Many of the Company's vendors stopped credit
sales of components used by the Company to manufacture products, and as a
result, the Company converted certain of its turnkey customers to customers that
provide consigned components to the Company for production. These conditions
raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going
concern.
In addition, the Company is a defendant in numerous legal actions (see Note 4).
These matters may have a material impact on the Company's financial position,
although no assurance can be given regarding the effect of these matters in the
future.
In view of the matters described in the preceding paragraphs, recoverability of
a major portion of the recorded asset amounts shown in the accompanying
consolidated balance sheets is dependent upon continued operations of the
Company, which in turn is dependent upon the Company's ability to meet its
financing requirements on a continuing basis, to maintain or replace present
financing, to acquire additional capital from investors, and to succeed in its
future operations. The financial statements do not include any adjustments
relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or
amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the
Company be unable to continue in existence.
During 2002, the Company entered into agreements whereby the Company has issued
common stock to certain principals of Abacas Ventures, Inc. ("Abacas") in
exchange for a portion of the debt. The Company's plans include working with
vendors to convert trade payables into long-term notes payable and common stock
and cure defaults with lenders through forbearance agreements that the Company
will be able to service. The Company intends to continue to pursue this type of
debt conversion going forward with other creditors. As discussed in Note 5, the
Company has entered into an equity line of credit agreement with a private
investor. Realization of any proceeds under the equity line of credit is not
assured.
NOTE 3 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Stockholder Notes Payable --The Company had amounts due to stockholders from two
separate notes. The balance due to stockholders at March 31, 2003 and December
31, 2002, was $38,290 and $20,376, respectively. Interest associated with
amounts due to stockholders is accrued at 10 percent. Unpaid accrued interest
was $5,413 and $2,378 at March 31, 2003 and December 31, 2002, respectively, and
is included in accrued liabilities. These notes are due on demand.
Related Party Notes Payable --During 2002, the Company entered into a bridge
loan agreement with Abacas. This agreement allows the Company to request funds
from Abacas to finance the build-up of inventory relating to specific sales. The
loan bears interest at 24% and is payable on demand. There are no required
monthly payments. During the three months ended March 31, 2003, the Company was
advanced $100,000. The outstanding balance on the bridge loan was $788,742 as of
March 31, 2003. The total accrued interest owed to Abacas on the bridge loan was
$116,010 as of March 31, 2003 and is included in accrued liabilities.

NOTE 4 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Settlement of Litigation -- During January 2002, the Company settled a lawsuit
that had alleged a breach of facilities sublease agreement involving facilities
located in Colorado. The Company's liability in this action was originally
estimated to range up to $2.5 million. The Company had filed a counter suit in
the same court for an amount exceeding $500,000 for missing equipment. Effective
January 18, 2002, the Company entered into a settlement agreement which required
the Company to pay the plaintiff the sum of $250,000. Of this amount, $25,000
was paid upon execution of the settlement, and the balance, together with
interest at 8% per annum, was payable by July 18, 2002. As security for payment
of the balance, the Company executed and delivered to the plaintiff a Confession
of Judgment and also issued 3,000,000 shares of common stock, which are
currently held in escrow and have been treated as treasury stock recorded at no
cost. The fair value of the 3,000,000 shares was less than the carrying amount
of the note payable. Because 75 percent of the balance had not been paid by May
18, 2002, the Company was required to prepare and file with the Securities &
Exchange Commission, at its own expense, a registration statement with respect
to the escrowed shares. The remaining balance has not been paid, and the
registration statement with respect to the escrowed shares has not been declared
effective and the Company has not replaced the escrowed shares with registered
free-trading shares pursuant to the terms of the settlement agreement;
therefore, the plaintiff filed the Confession of Judgment and proceeded with
execution thereon. The Company is currently negotiating with the plaintiff to
settle this obligation without the release of the shares held in escrow.
In connection with a separate sublease agreement of these facilities, the
Company received a settlement from the sublessee during May 2002, in the amount
of $152,500, which has been recorded as other income. The Company did not
receive cash from this settlement, but certain obligations of the Company were
paid directly. $109,125 of the principal balance of the note related to the
settlement mentioned above was paid. Also, $7,000 was paid to the Company's
legal counsel as a retainer for future services. The remaining $36,375 was paid
to the above mentioned plaintiff as a settlement of rent expense.
During September 2002, the plaintiff filed a claim that the $109,125 portion of
the payment was to be applied as additional rent expense rather than a principal
payment on the note payable. The Company estimates that the probability of the
$109,125 being considered additional rent expense is remote and disputes the
claim. The Company intends to vigorously defend the action.
Litigation - During 2000, the Company settled a lawsuit filed by a vendor by
issuing 5,281,050 shares of the Company's common stock valued at $324,284,
paying $83,000 in cash and issuing two notes payable totaling $239,000. During
2002, the vendor filed a confession of judgement claiming that the Company
defaulted on its agreement and claims the 2000 lawsuit was not properly
satisfied. At December 31, 2002, the Company owed $60,133 of principal under the
terms of the remaining note payable. The Company denies the vendor's claims and
intends to vigorously defend itself against the confession of judgement.
In December 1999, a vendor of the Company filed a lawsuit that alleges breach of
contract and seeks payment in the amount of approximately $213,000 of punitive
damages from the Company related to the Company's non-payment for materials
provided by the vendor. Judgment was entered against the Company in May 2002 in
the amount of $213,718. The Company has accrued the entire amount due under the
judgment.
9
The Company has been a party to a lawsuit with a customer stemming
from an alleged breach of contract. In July 2002, the Company reached a
settlement with the customer in which the customer was to make payments from
August 1, 2002, through October 29, 2002, to the Company totaling $265,000. As
part of the settlement, the Company returned inventory valued at $158,010,
settled receivables from the customer of $287,277, settled payables owed to the
customer in the amount of $180,287 and sold inventory to a Company related to
the customer for $13,949. During 2002, the Company received the entire $265,000.
During October 1999, a former vendor of the Company brought action against the
Company alleging that the Company owed approximately $199,600 for materials and
services and pursuant to the terms of a promissory note. The Company entered a
settlement agreement under which the Company is to pay $6,256 each month until
the obligation and interest thereon are paid. This did not represent the
forgiveness of any obligation, but rather the restructuring of the terms of the
previous agreement. At December 31, 2002, the Company owed $183,429 for this
settlement. The Company has defaulted on its payment obligations under the
settlement agreement. The Company is currently negotiating a new settlement
agreement.
Judgment was entered in favor of a vendor during March 2002, in the amount of
$181,342 for nonpayment of costs of goods or services provided to the Company.
At December 31, 2002, the Company had accrued the entire amount of the claim.
The Company is currently in settlement negotiations with the vendor.
In December 1999, a vendor of the Company filed a lawsuit that seeks payment in
the amount of $44,269 for the cost of goods provided to the Company. The Company
admits owing certain amounts to the vendor and has accrued the entire amount
claimed. No trial date has been set and the Company is currently negotiating a
settlement of these claims.
During 2002, a vendor of the Company filed a lawsuit that seeks payment in the
amount of $31,745 for the cost of goods provided to the Company. The Company has
not yet determined the validity of the claim, but has accrued the entire amount
claimed. No trial date has been set and the Company is currently negotiating a
settlement of these claims.
An individual filed suit during January 2001, seeking to recover the principal
sum of $135,941, plus interest on a promissory note. The parties are presently
negotiating settlement.
During March 2000, a vendor brought suit against the Company under allegations
that the Company owed approximately $97,000 for the cost of goods or services
provided to the Company for the Company's use and benefit. The Company issued a
note payable to the vendor in settlement of the amount owed and is required to
pay the vendor $1,972 each month until paid. At December 31, 2002, the Company
owed $87,632 on this settlement agreement. The Company is currently in default
on this obligation and is currently negotiating a new settlement agreement.
A financial institution brought suit against the Company during February 2000,
alleging that the Company owed approximately $439,000 for a loan provided to the
Company for the Company's use and benefit. Judgment was entered against the
Company and certain guarantors in the amount of $427,292 plus interest at the
rate of 8.61% per annum from June 27, 2000. The Company has subsequently made
payments to the financial institution, reducing the obligation to $258,644 at
December 31, 2002, plus interest accruing from January 1, 2002. The Company is
in default on this obligation and is negotiating for settlement of the remaining
claims.
10
Suit was brought against the Company during April 2001, by a former shareholder
alleging that the Company owed $121,825 under the terms of a promissory note. A
Stipulation for Settlement and for Entry of Judgment was executed by the parties
wherein the Company agreed to arrange for payment of a principal amount of
$145,000 in 48 monthly installments. The Company made seven payments and then
failed to make subsequent payments, at which time the shareholder obtained a
consent judgment against the Company. The Company is currently in settlement
negotiations with the former shareholder regarding the judgment.
Various vendors have notified the Company that they believe they have claims
against the Company totaling $370,152. None of these vendors have filed lawsuits
in relation to these claims. The Company has accrued the entire amount of these
claims and it is included in accounts payable.
The Company is the defendant in numerous legal actions, primarily resulting from
nonpayment of vendor invoices for goods and services received, that it has
determined the probability of realizing any loss is remote. The total amount of
these legal actions is $179,757. The Company has made no accrual for the legal
actions and is currently in the process of negotiating the dismissal of these
claims with the various vendors.
The Company is also the defendant in numerous immaterial legal actions primarily
resulting from nonpayment of vendors for goods and services received. The
Company has accrued the payables and is currently in the process of negotiating
settlements with these vendors.
Registration Rights - In connection with the conversion of certain debt to
equity during 2000, the Company has granted the holders of 5,281,050 shares of
common stock the right to include 50% of the common stock of the holders in any
registration of common stock of the Company, under the Securities Act for offer
to sell to the public (subject to certain exceptions). The Company has also
agreed to keep any filed registration statement effective for a period of 180
days at its own expense.
Additionally, in connection with the Company's entering into an Equity Line of
Credit Agreement (described in Note 5), the Company granted to the equity line
investor (the "Equity Line Investor") registration rights, in connection with
which the Company is required to file a registration statement covering the
resale of shares put to the Equity Line Investor under the equity line. The
Company is also required to keep the registration statement effective until two
years following the date of the last advance under the equity line. The Company
has not yet filed such registration statement.
Accrued Payroll Tax Liabilities -- As of March 31, 2003, the Company had accrued
liabilities in the amount of $2,039,690 for delinquent payroll taxes, including
interest estimated at $327,064 and penalties estimated at $230,300. Of this
amount, approximately $314,403 was due the State of Utah. During the first
quarter of 2003, no payments were made to the State of Utah. Approximately
$1,714,348 was owed to the Internal Revenue Service as of March 31, 2003. The
required monthly payments were made during each of the three months during the
first quarter of 2003. The Company is currently renegotiating the terms of the
payment schedule with the Internal Revenue Service. Approximately $10,939 was
owed to the State of Colorado as of March 31, 2003.
11
NOTE 5 - STOCKHOLDER'S EQUITY
Equity Line of Credit -- On April 8, 2003, the Company entered into a revised
Equity Line of Credit Agreement (the "Equity Line Agreement") with a private
investor (the "Equity Line Investor"). Under the Equity Line Agreement, the
Company has the right to draw up to $5,000,000 from the Equity Line Investor
against an equity line of credit (the "Equity Line"). As part of the Equity Line
Agreement, the Company may issue shares of the Company's common stock to the
Equity Line Investor in lieu of repayment of the draw. The number of shares to
be issued is determined by dividing the amount of the draw by the lowest closing
bid price of the Company's common stock over the five trading days after the
advance notice is tendered. The maximum amount of any single draw is $85,000
The Equity Line Investor is required under the Equity Line Agreement to tender
the funds requested by the Company within two trading days after the
five-trading-day period used to determine the market price.
In connection with the Equity Line Agreement, the Company issued 2,562,500
shares of the Company's common stock as placement shares at no cost in 2002. The
Company also granted registration rights to the Equity Line Investor, in
connection with which the Company is required to use its best efforts to file a
registration statement and have it declared effective by the Securities and
Exchange Commission. The Company is unable to draw on the Equity Line until the
registration statement has been declared effective.
NOTE 6 - STOCK OPTIONS AND WARRANTS
Stock-Based Compensation - The Company accounts for stock options issued to
directors, officers and employees under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No.
25 and related interpretations ("APB 25"). Under APB 25, compensation expense is
recognized if an option's exercise price on the measurement date is below the
fair value of the Company's common stock. For options that provide for cashless
exercise or that have been modified, the measurement date is considered the date
the options are exercised or expire. Those options are accounted for as variable
options with compensation adjusted each period based on the difference between
the market value of the common stock and the exercise price of the options at
the end of the period. The Company accounts for options and warrants issued to
non-employees at their fair value in accordance with SFAS No. 123, "Accounting
for Stock-Based Compensation" ("SFAS 123").
Stock Option Plan - On February 11, 2003, the Company adopted the 2002 Stock
Option Plan (the "2002 Plan") with 25,000,000 shares of common stock reserved
for issuance there under. The Company's Board of Directors administers the plan
and has discretion in determining the employees, directors, independent
contractors and advisors who receive awards, the type of awards (stock,
incentive stock options or non-qualified stock options) granted, and the term,
vesting and exercise prices.
During February 2003, the Company granted options to purchase 5,500,000 shares
of common stock to certain employees of the Company and options to purchase
2,000,000 shares of common stock to members of the board of directors pursuant
to the 2002 Plan. These options vested on the date of grant. The related
exercise price was $0.025 per share for employee options and $0.03 per share for
members of the board of directors. The market value of the common stock on the
12
grant date was $0.036, which resulted in non-cash compensation of $72,500. The
options are exercisable through February 2008. All options granted were
exercised. The options were exercised for $137,500 of cash, $45,000 of accrued
interest to directors and $15,000 of accrued compensation. The Company estimated
the fair value of the employee and director stock options at the grant date
using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The following weighted-average
assumptions were used in the Black-Scholes model to determine the fair value of
the employee and director options to purchase a share of common stock of $0.019
and $0.018, respectively: risk-free interest rate of 2.92 percent, dividend
yield of 0 percent, volatility of 364 percent, and expected lives of 0.10 years.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
This discussion should be read in conjunction with managements' discussion and
analysis of financial condition and results of operation included in our Annual
Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2002.
Overview
We provide a mixture of high and medium size volume turnkey manufacturing
services using surface mount technology, ball-grid array assembly,
pin-through-hole and custom injection molded cabling for leading electronics
OEMs in the communications, networking, peripherals, gaming, law enforcement,
consumer products, telecommunications, automotive, medical, and semiconductor
industries. Our services include pre-manufacturing, manufacturing and
post-manufacturing services. Through our subsidiary, Racore Technology
Corporation, we design and manufacture Ethernet technology products. Our goal is
to offer customers the significant competitive advantages that can be obtained
from manufacture outsourcing, such as access to advanced manufacturing
technologies, shortened product time-to-market, reduced cost of production, more
effective asset utilization, improved inventory management, and increased
purchasing power.
Significant Accounting Policies
Financial Reporting Release No. 60, which was recently released by the
Securities and Exchange Commission, requires all companies to include a
discussion of critical accounting policies or methods used in the preparation of
financial statements. Note 1 of the Notes to the Financial Statements contained
in our Annual Report on form 10-KSB includes a summary of the significant
accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of our Financial
Statements. The following is a brief discussion of the more significant
accounting policies and methods used by us.
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations
is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
These principles require us to make estimates and judgments that affect the
reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates on
historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be
reasonable under the circumstances. Estimated amounts may differ under different
assumptions or conditions, and actual results could differ from the estimates.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognized when products are shipped. Title passes to the customer or
independent sales representative at the time of shipment. Returns for defective
items are repaired and sent back to the customer. Historically, expenses
experienced with such returns have not been significant and have been recognized
as incurred.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of average cost or market value. Costs
include labor, material and overhead costs. Overhead costs are based on indirect
costs allocated among cost of sales, work-in-process inventory and finished
15
goods inventory. Indirect overhead costs have been charged to cost of sales or
capitalized as inventory based on management's estimate of the benefit of
indirect manufacturing costs to the manufacturing process.
When there is evidence that the inventory's value is less than original cost,
the inventory is reduced to market value. The Company determines market value on
current resale amounts and whether technological obsolescence exists. The
Company has agreements with most of its customers that require the customer to
purchase inventory items related to their contracts in the event that the
contracts are cancelled. The market value of related inventory is based upon
those agreements.
The Company typically orders inventory on a customer-by-customer basis. In doing
so the Company enters into binding agreements that the customer will purchase
any excess inventory after all orders are complete. Almost 80% of the total
inventory is secured by these agreements.
Checks Written in Excess of Cash in Bank
Historically, banks have temporarily lent funds to us by paying out more funds
than were in our accounts under existing lines of credit with those banks.
Subsequent to May 2000, when Abacas purchase our line of credit obligation, the
Company no longer had lines of credit with banks, and those loans were no longer
available or made to us.
Under our cash management system, checks issued but not presented to banks
frequently result in overdraft balances for accounting purposes. These
overdrafts are included as a current liability in the balance sheets.
Related Party Transactions
Certain transactions involving Abacas Ventures, Inc., the Saliba Private Annuity
Trust and the Saliba Living Trust are regarded as related party transactions
under FAS 57. Disclosure concerning these transactions is set out in this Item 6
under "Liquidity and Capital Resources - Liquidity and Financing Arrangements,"
and in "Item 12 - Certain Relationships and Related Transactions."
We lease approximately 40,000 square feet of office and manufacturing space in
West Valley City, Utah, at a monthly lease rate of approximately $16,000. The
lease is renewable in November of 2006 for two additional ten-year periods. This
facility serves as our principal offices and manufacturing facility and is
leased from I&R Properties, LLC, a company owned and controlled by individuals
who are officers, directors and principal stockholders. We believe our lease for
the facility is on commercially reasonable terms.
Results of Operations - Comparison of Periods Ended March 31, 2003 and 2002
Sales and Cost of Sales
Net sales decreased significantly to $269,774 for the three-month period ended
March 31, 2003 as compared to $641,330 during the same period in 2002. Cost of
sales decreased by 55.7%, from $419,116 during the three-month period ended
March 31, 2002 to $185,716 during the same period in 2003. Our gross profit
margin for the three-month period ended March 31, 2003 was 31.2%, down from
16
34.6% for the same period in 2002. The slight decrease in the gross profit
margin is attributed to the company selling more consigned products than turnkey
products. Though the company sustained decreased sales for the three-month
period ended March 31, 2003 compared to the same period in 2002 they were able
to maintain a steady gross profit margin.
Inventory
We use just-in-time manufacturing, which is a production technique that
minimizes work-in-process inventory and manufacturing cycle time, while enabling
us to deliver products to customers in the quantities and time frame required.
This manufacturing technique requires us to maintain an inventory of component
parts to meet customer orders. Inventory at March 31, 2003 was $1,522,859, as
compared to $1,550,553 at December 31, 2002. The decrease in inventory was
primarily the result of better inventory management, and the implementation of
our inventory control system.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
During the quarter ended March 31, 2003, selling, general and administrative
expenses were $555,554 versus $520,608 for 2002, a 6.7% increase. The increase
is a result of our increase in the size of our sales staff, an increase in the
commission structure for the sales staff, and our effort to aggressively market
our products during a period of economic downturn.
Interest Expense
Interest expense for quarter ended March 31, 2003 was $110,743 as compared to
$136,880 for 2002, a decrease of 19.1%. This decrease is primarily attributable
to a decrease in debt which was attributed to the conversions of notes payable
to shares of common stock in January and December. As of March 31, 2003 and
December 31, 2002, the amount of our liability for delinquent state and federal
payroll taxes and estimated penalties and interest thereon was $2,039,690 and
$2,029,626, respectively.
As a result of the above factors, our overall net loss increased 53.8% to
$654,739 for the quarter ended March 31, 2003, as compared to $425,757 for the
quarter ended March 31, 2002.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our expenses are currently greater than our revenues. We have had a history of
losses and our accumulated deficit was $15,885,041 at March 31, 2003 and was
$15,230,302 at December 31, 2002. Our net operating loss for the quarter ending
March 31, 2003 was $654,739, compared to $425,757 for the quarter ended March
31, 2002. Our current liabilities exceeded our current assets by $4,892,221 as
of March 31, 2003 and $4,490,623 as of December 31, 2002. The increase in the
difference is mostly attributed to increasing account payables, notes payable
and accrued liabilities. For the quarters ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, we had
negative cash flows from operations of $347,082 and $677,205, respectively.
Cash
We had cash on hand of $500 at March 31, 2003 and December 31, 2002.
Net cash used in operating activities was $347,082 for the quarter ended March
31, 2003. During 2003, net cash used in operations was primarily attributable to
17
$654,739 in net losses from operations, partially offset by non-cash charges and
increases in accrued liabilities of $84,894 and in increases to trades accounts
receivables of $85,042 and in a decrease to inventories of $27,694. The non-cash
charges were for depreciation and amortization of $83,295 and non-cash
compensation expense of $72,500.
Net cash used in investing activities during the quarter ended March 31, 2003,
consisted of equipment purchases of $6,495.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $353,577 during the quarter ended
March 31, 2003. Principal sources of cash were proceeds of $100,000 from notes
payable to related parties and proceeds from the exercise of options to purchase
common stock of $197,500.
Accounts Receivable
At March 31, 2003, we had receivables of $83,057, net of a reserve for doubtful
accounts of $37,037, as compared to $37,464 at December 31, 2002, net of a
reserve of $37,037. This increase is primarily attributed to sales having
increased compared to the last two months of last year.
Accounts Payable
Accounts payable were $1,444,765 at March 31, 2003 as compared to $1,359,723 at
December 31, 2002. This increase is primarily attributed to additional
accounting and legal fees.
Liquidity and Financing Arrangements
We have a history of substantial losses from operations and using rather than
providing cash in operations. We had an accumulated deficit of $15,885,041 and a
total stockholders' deficit of $4,278,836 at March 31, 2003. As of March 31,
2003, our monthly operating costs and interest expenses averaged approximately
$245,000 per month.
Significant amounts of additional cash will be needed to reduce our debt and
fund our losses until such time as we are able to become profitable. At March
31, 2003, we were in default of notes payable whose principal amount, not
including the amount owing to Abacas Ventures, Inc., was approximately $640,000.
In addition, the principal amount of notes that either mature in 2003 or are
payable on demand exceed $490,000.
Management believes that each of the related party transactions were as fair to
the Company as could have been made with unaffiliated third parties.
In conjunction with our efforts to improve our results of operations, discussed
above, we are also actively seeking infusions of capital from investors and are
seeking to replace our line of credit. It is unlikely that we will be able, in
our current financial condition, to obtain additional debt financing; and if we
did acquire more debt, we would have to devote additional cash flow to pay the
debt and secure the debt with assets. We may therefore have to rely on equity
financing to meet our anticipated capital needs. There can be no assurances that
we will be successful in obtaining such capital. If we issue additional shares
for debt and/or equity, this will serve to dilute the value of our common stock
and existing shareholders' positions.
Subsequent to our acquisition of Circuit in July 2000, we took steps to increase
the marketability of our shares of common stock and to make an investment in our
18
company by potential investors more attractive. These efforts consisted
primarily of seeking to become current in our filings with the Securities and
Exchange Commission and of seeking approval for quotation of our stock on the
NASD Over the Counter Electronic Bulletin Board. NASD approval for quotation of
our stock was obtained in July 2002.
There can be no assurance that we will be successful in obtaining more debt
and/or equity financing in the future or that our results of operations will
materially improve in either the short- or the long-term. If we fail to obtain
such financing and improve our results of operations, we will be unable to meet
our obligations as they become due. That would raise substantial doubt about our
ability to continue as a going concern.
In conjunction with our efforts to improve our results of operations, discussed
above, on November 5, 2002, we entered into an Equity Line of Credit Agreement
(the "Equity Line Agreement") with Cornell Capital Partners, LP, a private
investor ("Cornell"). We subsequently terminated the Equity Line Agreement, and
on April 8, 2003, we entered into an amended equity line agreement (the "Amended
Equity Line Agreement") with Cornell. Under the Amended Equity Line Agreement,
we have the right to draw up to $5,000,000 from Cornell against an equity line
of credit (the "Equity Line"), and to put to Cornell shares of our common stock
in lieu of repayment of the draw. The number of shares to be issued is
determined by dividing the amount of the draw by the lowest closing bid price of
our common stock over the five trading days after the advance notice is
tendered. Cornell is required under the Amended Equity Line Agreement to tender
the funds requested by us within two trading days after the five-trading-day
period used to determine the market price.
Our issuances of shares of our common stock pursuant to the Amended Equity Line
Agreement will serve to dilute the value of our common stock and existing
shareholders' positions.
Forward-looking statements
All statements made in this prospectus, other than statements of historical
fact, which address activities, actions, goals, prospects, or new developments
that we expect or anticipate will or may occur in the future, including such
things as expansion and growth of operations and other such matters are
forward-looking statements. Any one or a combination of factors could materially
affect our operations and financial condition. These factors include competitive
pressures, success or failure of marketing programs, changes in pricing and
availability of parts inventory, creditor actions, and conditions in the capital
markets. Forward-looking statements made by us are based on knowledge of our
business and the environment in which we currently operate. Because of the
factors listed above, as well as other factors beyond our control, actual
results may differ from those in the forward-looking statements.
Item 3. Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. The Company's chief
executive officer and chief financial officer, after evaluating the
effectiveness of the Company's "disclosure controls and procedures" (as defined
in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, Rules 13a-14(c) and 15-d-14(c)) as of a
date (the "Evaluation Date") within 90 days before the filing date of this
quarterly report, have concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, the Company's
disclosure controls and procedures were adequate and designed to ensure that
material information relating to the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries
would be made known to them by others within those entities.
19
(b) Changes in Internal Controls. There were no significant changes in the
Company's internal controls, or, to the Company's knowledge, in other factors
that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the Evaluation
Date.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
As of March 31, 2003, the Company had accrued liabilities in the amount of
$2,039,690 for delinquent payroll taxes, including interest estimated at
$327,064 and penalties estimated at $230,300. Of this amount, approximately
$314,403 was due the State of Utah. During the first quarter of 2003, no
payments were made to the State of Utah. Approximately $1,714,348 was owed to
the Internal Revenue Service as of March 31, 2003. The required monthly payments
were made during each of the three months during the first quarter of 2003. The
Company is currently renegotiating the terms of the payment schedule with the
Internal Revenue Service. Approximately $10,939 was owed to the State of
Colorado as of March 31, 2003.
We (as successor to Circuit Technology, Inc.) were a defendant in an action in
El Paso County, Colorado District Court, brought by Sunborne XII, LLC, a
Colorado limited liability company, for alleged breach of a sublease agreement
involving facilities located in Colorado. Our liability in this action was
originally estimated to range up to $2.5 million, and we subsequently filed a
counter suit in the same court against Sunborne in an amount exceeding $500,000
for missing equipment. Effective January 18, 2002, we entered into a settlement
agreement with Sunborne with respect to the above-described litigation. The
settlement agreement required us to pay Sunborne the sum of $250,000. Of this
amount, $25,000 was paid upon execution of the agreement, and the balance of
$225,000, together with interest at 8% per annum, was payable by July 18, 2002.
As security for payment of the balance, we executed and delivered to Sunborne a
Confession of Judgment and also issued to Sunborne 3,000,000 shares of our
common stock, which are held in escrow and have been treated as treasury stock
recorded at no cost. Because, 75% of the balance owing under the agreement was
not paid by May 18, 2002, we were required to prepare and file with the
Securities & Exchange Commission, at our expense, a registration statement with
respect to the shares that were escrowed. The payment was not made, nor was a
registration statement filed with respect to the escrowed shares.
Pursuant to a Termination of Sublease Agreement dated as of May 22, 2002 among
the Company, Sunborne and other parties, the sublease agreement that was the
subject of our litigation with Sunborne was terminated and a payment of
approximately $109,000 was credited against the amount owed by the Company to
Sunborne under the Company's settlement agreement with them. Sunborne has filed
a claim that this amount was to be an additional rent expense rather than a
payment on the note payable. The Company disputes this claim and intends to
vigorously defend the action.
As of May 16, 2003, the Company was in default of its obligations under the
settlement agreement with Sunborne, i.e., the total payment due thereunder had
not been made, a registration statement with respect to the escrowed shares was
not filed, and the Company did not replace the escrowed shares with registered,
free-trading shares as per the terms of the agreement. Accordingly, Sunborne has
filed the Confession of Judgment and proceeded with execution thereon. The
Company is currently negotiating with Sunborne in an attempt to settle the
remaining obligation under the settlement agreement.
20
We also assumed certain liabilities of Circuit Technology, Inc. in connection
with our transactions with that entity in the year 2000, and as a result we are
defendant in a number of legal actions involving nonpayment of vendors for goods
and services rendered. We have accrued these payables and have negotiated
settlements with respect to some of the liabilities, including those detailed
below, and are currently negotiating settlements with other vendors.
