SOURCE OF CERTAIN STATISTICAL AND OTHER INFORMATION

This annual report on Form 10-K includes certain statistical and other data with respect to us, our products and services and industries, derived from public available reports and other publications referenced in this annual report. These organizations generally use methodology and conventions that they deem appropriate to measure companies within the relevant industry segment and to measure industry size. These organizations generally indicate that they have obtained information from sources believed to be reliable, but do not guarantee the accuracy of completeness of such information. While we believe this information to be reliable, we have not independently verified such data.

OVERVIEW

IPIX Corporation, formally Internet Pictures Corporation, is a leading provider of technology solutions enabling public and private enterprises to use visual data efficiently. We combine our experience, people, technology, processes and partnerships to deliver an extensive range of visual data solutions worldwide. Our services and technologies provide our customers with the opportunity to increase revenues, improve customer satisfaction and enhance security for the protection of life and property. Our patented immersive imaging technology is used to provide an unparalleled view of the world. Government and commercial enterprises and others around the world are finding new ways to use our products for video security, situational awareness, visual documentation and on-line marketing. Our Rimfire technology is used by publishers to dramatically improve the effectiveness of directional advertising in both traditional publishing such as yellow pages and newspaper classifieds ads. It is also used by on-line publishers such as real-estate and automobile resale aggregators.

Substantially all of our recurring revenue has been derived from transaction fees generated by our Rimfire service. In 2003, we received 87% of our total revenue from eBay pursuant to a visual content services agreement. We amended our agreement with eBay in June 2003 and received a one-time license fee of $8.0 million for our Rimfire technology and other services. We no longer provide any products or services to eBay as of November 1, 2003, and we will not receive any further revenue from eBay pursuant to these agreements.

In 2003, our organization moved from being technology focused (Immersive Video Solutions, Transaction Services and Immersive Still Solutions) to being market focused in order to better serve the needs of our customers. We are now organized into three business units: IPIX Security, IPIX Ad Technologies and IPIX InfoMedia, respectively.

    IPIX Security provides security and surveillance products and services for commercial and governmental customers.

    IPIX Ad Technologies focuses on the sale of complete solutions to customers who rely on visual data to create effective directional advertising such as publishers of newspaper classifieds, yellow page directories, on-line auctions, real estate and autos classifieds.

    IPIX InfoMedia focuses on the sale of immersive still technology licenses for the on-line real estate, travel and hospitality and visual documentation markets.

Each of our business units is discussed below in detail.

IPIX SECURITY

Prior to the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, the size of the global security market was estimated by the J.P. Freeman 2000 Report on Security Industry to be over $100 billion in sales annually across all segments of the security industry. Within the security market, the U.S. accounts for approximately 44% of the global market, of which video surveillance is the fastest growing market segment.

 


Table of Contents

We believe IPIX Security is well positioned to address the video surveillance segment of the security industry. We offer new and innovative digital cameras that are highly attractive to end-users because our cameras are simple to operate, reduce the number of conventional cameras that are required to provide adequate coverage thereby reducing installation labor and material costs.

THE SECURITY SOLUTION

IPIX Security, using our core immersive technology, brings to market an innovative development in security and surveillance imaging that provides an expansive view of live and archival video from a single camera. By using a single fisheye lens, we are able to capture a Full-360 degree field of view from a video camera, then de-warp the fisheye video image using patented technology and compensate for distortion errors that are inherent in fisheye images and present the image in a manner that looks like a traditional image and can be easily understood by the viewer. The resulting image can be viewed in any direction, up-down, left-right and horizon to horizon. The viewer can easily navigate the image by moving a cursor inside the image or using our navigation controls.

We have developed a new generation and category of high resolution digital video cameras that use our patented technology for use by security professionals in commercial and government security applications.

Our core immersive technology has been successfully productized into a new category of digital, high resolution, network camera systems that provide continuous situational awareness by being able to:

    see in all directions simultaneously with no blind spots;

    provide alarms based on motion detection that is built into the camera;

    allow viewers to roam within live or recorded video using pan-tilt-zoom with no moving parts;

    provide recording and playback capability; and

    scale easily.

IPIX Security will launch its new product portfolio of Full-360 digital cameras on March 31, 2004 at ISC EXPO West in Las Vegas. The new product portfolio consists of three camera product lines with various configurations within each product line. The product lines include: CommandView, CommandView360 and InSight camera systems. The core camera electronics and fisheye lens optics have been designed to be used across the entire product line to enable economies of scale to be reached quickly in manufacturing. The camera systems will be offered in ceiling, wall and pole mount configurations with several mounting options available for each configuration.

IPIX CommandView

The CommandView camera consists of a two mega-pixel sensor, a digital signal processor (DSP) module and a power distribution and communication module. CommandView utilizes our fisheye lens that has been optimized for the image sensor in the camera subassembly, and bundles one licensed copy of the Milestone Security Management System Software with the our viewing software to provide a high value, highly attractive video surveillance product offering to the security market. CommandView comes in two configurations: wall-mount or ceiling-mount.

A typical high-speed dome camera relies upon a mechanical pan-tilt-zoom table to steer it to where it needs to be pointed and to monitor the area of concern. Control of where such a camera is pointed can be performed either by using presets that are tied to specific alarm points or manually by an operator who controls where the camera is pointed. One person could cause a diversion by tripping an alarm that causes a typical camera to rotate in that direction to ‘see’ what is causing the alarm, while a second person commits an actual ‘crime’ or incident in the blind spot of the mechanical camera.

For the first time, IPIX Security offers the security professional a camera system that cannot be defeated by co-conspirators that cause a diversion in one direction while the real threat or incident occurs in the opposite direction. The uses and applications of CommandView are virtually limitless because unlike the cameras it replaces, CommandView provides complete and continuous situational awareness. It cannot be fooled into looking in one

direction and not another. CommandView sees everything at the same time and monitors everything in its area of concern with no blind spots.

IPIX CommandView360

CommandView360 further leverages our investment made into video camera and lens technologies. It uses the CommandView camera subassembly, our same fisheye lens and our same patented viewing software. CommandView360 utilizes two camera subassemblies mounted back-to-back and one fisheye lens on each camera to provide Full-360 degree coverage of the area of concern. Full-360 means it is monitoring in both the horizontal and vertical dimensions at the same time. This innovative camera system allows the user to view live and recorded video at user definable frame rates and compression settings to conserve bandwidth requirements.

The dual-lens, fixed spherical optical system integrates an optional off-the-shelf third party mechanical pan-tilt-zoom camera that has an optical zoom capability for long range target identification and tracking. Operation of the CommandView360 with the mechanical pan-tilt-zoom camera is simple and efficient and allows the operator to get on target quicker by using the ‘Assisted Cue and Zoom’ feature of the CommandView360. Targets of interest are seen through the spherical view of the CommandView360 and the operator simply ‘mouse-clicks’ on a target of interest in the viewer screen.

The CommandView360 software performs a mathematical calculation and sends the coordinates of the pixel that the operator ‘mouse-clicked’ on to the mechanical pan-tilt-zoom camera as positioning commands. The mechanical pan-tilt-zoom camera moves to the correct position to ‘capture’ the target and the operator then zooms in for close-up monitoring. Without the ‘Assisted Cue and Zoom’ feature offered by CommandView360, an operator using just a mechanical pan-tilt-zoom camera would have a very difficult time finding a target that could be anywhere in three-dimensional space either above, below, to the right, to the left or behind the current direction that a typical camera could be pointing.

Designed to provide the highest level of reliable operation for continuous situational awareness, the CommandView360 is rugged in construction and small in size making it ideal for fixed, outdoor installations where it is desirable to protect critical infrastructure and key assets such as ports, harbors, waterways, dams, power stations, airports and national icons against threats that could come from any direction on land, sea or air. Early prototype versions of the CommandView360 were first used in the fourth quarter of 2003 as part of our Beta Test and Evaluation Program. Participants in this program include TVA, Oak Ridge National Laboratories, Los Alamos National laboratory, Cumberland Gap Tunnel, Tennessee State Capitol, Boeing, Digital Force Technology, Cisco, Electronics Warfare Associates and SAIC.

IPIX InSight

We also have a family of surveillance cameras that take advantage of the high resolution and video frame rates in the CommandView platform. InSight is our entry level digital camera system using the camera subassembly that forms the foundation of our entire product portfolio.

The two mega-pixel InSight camera:

    can be fitted with a standard 1/2 inch CS mount commercial-off-the-shelf lens that provides a field-of-view in accordance with the user’s requirements;

    is capable of generating high quality, high resolution images at full motion frame rates that range from 15 frames per second to 48 frames per second, depending upon compression settings and number of users on the network;

    can automatically send streaming video over the network in one of three video streaming protocols; HTTP, RTP and RTSP and

    is offered in two configurations: ceiling-mount and wall-mount.

Table of Contents

In the ceiling-mount configuration, the user may select a fixed or a directional camera mount. The directional mount allows the user to swivel the camera to adjust the direction in which the camera is pointed. The InSight camera may be mounted in a parapet or rampart enclosure for outdoor use. The InSight camera fills a void that currently exists in the security video surveillance market for a fixed, high resolution (1.0+ mega-pixel image), network camera that is capable of delivering video at full-motion frame rates.

IPIX XProtect Security Management Software

High-end users of security products need to efficiently manage, store and retrieve their image streams. To meet this need IPIX Security has entered into a strategic relationship with Milestone Systems A/S, a security management software company located in Denmark. Milestone is a leader in network video recorder software and is an enabling technology for our new digital camera product line. Milestone has integrated their XProtect Security Management Software with our products. The Milestone XProtect software provides a user friendly interface to a network camera that allows the user to build, manage and control a network of digital cameras and record and playback the video outputs of each camera on the network. Users can digitally pan-tilt-zoom within the scene on both live and recorded video. Milestone software is easily scalable and can be used with a single camera installed at a single location, or across an entire enterprise consisting of hundreds or thousands of cameras spread around a multi-building campus, or a geographical area that is local, regional, national or global in scope. Milestone has agreed to provide its market leading software to IPIX Security for our new product line of network cameras and has agreed not to support any other companies competing in the same technology space as IPIX Security.

SECURITY MARKET

In the government security market, we are directing our marketing and sales channel development efforts on infrastructure protection related to ports, harbors, waterways, dams, conventional and nuclear power stations, utilities, airports and mass transit rail systems. In the military, we are concentrating on developing sales channels with system integrators involved in perimeter force protection, unmanned vehicles and special operations.

In the commercial security market, we are developing a network of resellers who are experts in providing IT network security solutions to commercial and government customers. In addition, we are building a network of resellers in the security system integrator community to help us penetrate the banking, industrial, institutional, health care, education, cultural and commercial building markets. We are also licensing our technology to leading digital video recorder (“DVR”), network video recorder (“NVR”) and digital camera original equipment manufacturers.

SECURITY SALES AND MARKETING

Our sales and marketing group focuses on indirect sales and direct sales. Our seven sales professionals are located across the United States, and are focused on developing new sales channels with business partners and maintaining and strengthening strategic relationships with existing partners and customers in our target markets.

Our marketing efforts focus on supporting our indirect sales channel partners with trade shows, advertising, marketing collateral materials, co-marketing programs, public relations campaigns, sales tools and training and education on our products and programs. We generate qualified sales leads that shorten the sales cycle time so new business opportunities close faster. We are committed to being responsive to our customers, providing high quality products at stable prices and including our partners’ and customers’ feedback directly into our product planning process.

Go-to Market Strategy

IPIX Security must market itself and its products directly to end-users, architects, specifying engineers, consultants and general contractors for the commercial market and to the proscribers and specifiers within the federal, state and local government. In addition, IPIX Security will sell its products through a world-wide network of indirect sales channel partners who are knowledgeable about local market conditions and requirements, have established relationships in the local security market and enable us to more quickly penetrate the market.

Table of Contents

We believe this strategy will enable us to achieve meaningful revenues from the market while controlling our operating and support expenses and develop multiple sales and marketing channels for IPIX Security products and services including:

Indirect Sales Channel Partners

We seek to partner with established security system integrators, prime government contractors and resellers to help penetrate the commercial and governmental security and observation markets. We are also developing distribution agreements with partners in a wide range of countries that allow us to deploy our technology into regions of the world that would normally require significant time and effort for marketing and development.

Business Development and Strategic Direct Sales

In addition to our indirect sales channels, IPIX Security employs a team of seven senior sales professionals focused on new business development opportunities and strategic direct sales across our target markets. Through our professional services organization, IPIX Security seeks opportunities to obtain research and development contracts with government research organizations and prime government contractors to provide our technology and engineering services to applications involving robotics, unmanned vehicles for the military and intelligent software for object classification and tracking.

IPIX SECURITY COMPETITION

Current manufacturers of camera systems for the security and surveillance markets are substantially larger than we are and have access to significant amounts of capital. IPIX Security has several direct competitors, including: RemoteReality, Egg Systems, Sony and American Dynamics. We believe our patent protected de-warping software and our use of fisheye lens provides us an advantage over our competitors.

IPIX AD TECHNOLOGIES

In June 2003, we amended our existing agreement with eBay for use of our Rimfire Technology to power eBay Picture Services. Rimfire Technology was a key driver behind the increased adoption of photo use within eBay listings. Listings using images at the inception of the eBay agreement were 8% of total listings, this increased to over 80% of all listings in late 2003, producing material revenue for both parties. The core value and significant scale of the service had grown to make it impractical to continue as an outsourced solution, and the parties agreed to a licensing and transition agreement completed in November of 2003. We retained all current and future technology rights and expertise in the Rimfire technology.

Leveraging the success of creating visual ads for listings on eBay and other partners, we expanded the functionality of our core platform to serve the growing needs of on-line advertising in the broader advertising market of publishing. IPIX Ad Technologies (“Ad Technologies”) is focused on the “directional advertising market.” Directional advertising directs buyers to sellers when they’re ready to buy, so there is an established need. Examples include newspaper classified ads (print and on-line), yellow pages (print and on-line), paid search engines and other paid directories.

THE MARKET

The directional advertising market, long held by print publishers (newspapers and yellow pages), is a market under attack by companies such as Google, Overture and eBay, which are beginning to take significant advertising revenue from the print publishers. This fundamental shift in the directional advertising market is being driven by consumers who are increasingly moving on-line for purchases. As advertisers follow the consumer they drive the rapidly growing need for tools that allow them to effectively reach qualified leads in an increasingly complicated on-line environment.

We believe that local advertising of goods and services, which is largely comprised of small and medium enterprises (“SME”), is lagging the consumer movement, creating a gap in the supply and demand of directional advertising.

Table of Contents

According to industry analysts such as The Kelsey Group, eMarketer and BizRate.com, the directional advertising market is estimated to be a very large market and today most of its advertising dollars are spent with traditional publishers such as newspaper classifieds and yellow page directories. Local advertising spending by private parties and small businesses is estimated to be half of market. There are over 10 million widely distributed SMEs in the U.S. today and their advertising budgets generally average six thousand dollars a year. SMEs do the majority of their business within a 50 mile radius of their location and over 70% of all SMEs do not have, need or maintain a website.

To meet the need of SME advertisers, while competing with the downward pricing pressure from competition, publishers must adopt effective self-service tools that allow the SME advertiser to compete with national business on-line, minimizing or eliminating the current barriers. There also is a need to help bridge the transition from print to web, as both have a place in a local business advertising strategy.

We believe these self-service tools must:

    simplify the creation process;

    make it cost effective, flexible and easily updated;

    improve the relevancy of local search results;

    not be dependent on a web site; and

    make advertisements media rich with photos, maps, coupons contact information and more.

THE AD TECHNONOGIES SOLUTION

Since 2001 our comprehensive media platform, Rimfire, has allowed both print and on-line publishers to provide services to advertisers enabling them to easily and elegantly capture, transform, manage and distribute digital media with little or no technical expertise. During 2003, we extended the functionality of our technology to meet the needs of the SMEs for creating self-service directional advertising on-line and in-print. We market this product under the trade name of “AdMission.”

AdMission makes professional-quality directional advertising accessible to SMEs and individuals. AdMission offers simple, intuitive self-serve ad creation tools to publish “visually-enhanced” directional ads in real-time, maximizing ad effectiveness, both on-line and in-print. AdMission, through enhanced visual content, also helps advertisers communicate their value to consumers more efficiently and effectively than traditional display or text-only ads, resulting in higher-qualified leads. Integrated into a publishers advertising system, the result is an easy to use self-service tool for creating media rich directional advertisements.

The AdMission solution is provided as an ASP service to publishers, allowing then an accelerated time to market. By outsourcing to us, publishers can leveraging our proven technology platform, extensive experience and infrastructure built over the last three years while providing large scale transaction services to eBay and other partners.

The major components of the AdMission solution include:

AdMission Acquire

AdMission Acquire leverages proprietary technology to allow end users to easily select or drag-and-drop media content to ad templates which can be published both off-line and on the Web without the need to process the image with expensive and complex desktop software ahead of time. AdMission Acquire accepts a wide and growing variety of file formats and converts the files to publisher specifications automatically, without user intervention. AdMission’s smart-sizing feature allows the user to supply files of any size without the worry of upload times for submission, or viewing times. AdMission automatically prepares the media for transmission by optimizing its size to the requirements of the site. Unlike traditional web-based file upload mechanisms, AdMission makes it easy to upload many files at once and associate those files with their respective data.

AdMission Process

Once media is received by AdMission, it is processed to meet customer specifications. AdMission’s plug-in architecture and configurable account rules enable services such as the transformation of still images into interactive advertisements, slide shows, images watermarked with text or graphics or new capabilities created by us or our third party developers. Challenging and complex imaging tasks such as formatting, color correction, press calibration, sizing and cropping, are handled automatically behind the scenes according to the publishers specifications. Instant previews of the media supplied prevent incorrect submissions, increase up sells and increase customer satisfaction.

AdMission Distribute

After media has been processed, it is stored on a highly scalable and fault tolerant infrastructure designed to handle high volumes of user submissions and to match our customers’ rapid pace of growth. AdMission goes beyond serving up static media, providing multiple viewing and distribution capabilities. For example, media items can be requested with dynamic transforms, allowing for optimized output for a variety of publisher templates, formats and output devices. AdMission provides pre-built, optimized viewing templates that provide compelling visual ads with minimal integration work.

By integrating our technology, publishers offer new functionality to SMEs and individuals to create visual ads whether they have a website presence or not. And, by offering an outsourced solution, we provide our customers with an alternative to building a costly infrastructure, enabling them to utilize scarce technical resources in other mission critical capacities.

AD TECHNOLOGIES MARKETS

We have directed our sales efforts and channel strategies toward the industry leaders within the following segments of the directional advertising market.

Newspaper Classifieds: Newspapers rely on the revenue streams from classified advertisement. We allow newspapers to offer enhanced visual ads to their customers to produce compelling ads both on-line and in-print. We have worked extensively with our newspaper customers and understand the unique needs of the traditional publisher. The AdMission system is also offered as an integrated self-service component of the ad order entry system, or through the call center sales force. Sellers require an easy to use method for uploading media elements to accompany their item listing and buyers have greater confidence in items they can view and inspect on-line. In our experience, listings with images attract more buyers and sell for higher prices. With AdMission, classified sites can offer enhanced visual ad services that make adding media to ads easy, as well as affordable and efficient.

Yellow Page Directories: Traditional yellow page providers have many of the same challenges and opportunities as newspaper publishers. They are the historically dominant vehicle for SME local advertising and have an extensive feet-on-the-street sales force. We present them with an up-sell opportunity from the traditional printed yellow page ad to visually rich and dynamic on-line advertisements that can be additionally enhanced with coupons and other call-to-action elements that can be updated as frequently as business needs demand. For Internet yellow page publishers, we offer a cost-effective self-serve visually enhanced ad opportunity that does not require an SME to have a website nor technical expertise.

Search: The search directory companies have extensive self-serve advertising vehicles for creating a national reach, but are not as effective in producing relevant and actionable results for local search. By incorporating the enhanced visual ad capabilities of AdMission, consumers can find relevant data at their fingertips. Search platforms can leverage our technology to gain access to the SME advertiser who needs to differentiate their offering from large national advertisers, yet cost effectively create compelling media rich ads that attract qualified consumers.

AD TECHNOLOGIES CHANNELS

Indirect Sales Channels

Our strategy is to leverage our relationships with business partners and major market leaders in order to increase our market penetration and revenues while reducing our sales and marketing expenses. This strategy will develop multiple sales and marketing channels for our products and services. We are targeting the top ad order systems providers to integrate our products with theirs making the AdMission product available and a natural enhancement to existing ad creation systems. To date IPIX has partnered with market leaders such as: CCI Europe, Mactive, DTI, PBS and AdStar among the leaders in the industry.

Direct Sales Channels

To increase adoption and accelerate demand creation we also target direct relationships with the top directional ad platform providers both on-line and in-print. We have signed agreements and are in the process of roll outs with: Tribune Media, Cox Communications, Los Angeles Times, Homestore, Seattle Times, Los Angeles Newspaper Group, Scripps-Knoxville News, Cars.com, Yell.com, NewsQuest Digital Media and Haymarket in the UK, as well as others. We also have a direct sales channel strategy for the Internet yellow page companies and the on-line search companies.

Through these relationships, our customers market and sell visually enhanced ad products and services, powered by our technology, to their customers. We believe we benefit from the brand equity and buying recommendations provided by the customer’s sales channel to increase sales and market penetration while maintaining the ability to focus on our technology support and enhancements. We plan to continue to partner with additional vertical market leaders to serve as direct and indirect channels for the promotion and sale of our products and services.

AD TECHNOLOGIES COMPETITION

When selling our services, we often find that potential customers are considering internal development of system components. Our solution provides an end-to-end, integrated solution for acquiring, managing and distributing media content. The time, complexity, cost and expertise required to build and scale such a system, while still having to expend the expertise and resources to make images print-ready, make outsourcing an attractive option. We are continually enhancing our product features and services to maintain the broadest accessibility across browsers, operating systems and file formats, which further increase the advantage of outsourcing to us. Nevertheless, we view internally-built and operated capabilities as competitive.

Where outsourced imaging management capabilities for our target markets are concerned, we view companies such as AdPixx and PictureAds as competitors. We believe that our technology and extensive experience handling large volumes of imaging data serve to differentiate us from these competitors. Several other companies currently operate as self-serve ad creation technology providers for SME’s, with a focus on different markets; however, such companies may choose to expand into the markets currently targeted by AdMission at any time. These companies include: Celebro and DynAccSys in print display ad creation for newspapers; AdLizard in print display ad creation for yellow pages; Amazing Media and PointRoll in on-line banner ad creation. Again, we view our proprietary technology and extensive expertise in image management as a key differentiator.

IPIX INFOMEDIA

Our patented imaging technology enables the creation of panoramic image content through the use of a wide angle or fisheye lens. Our immersive technology represents the easiest way possible to capture the entire field-of-view surrounding a camera. In use, separate 185 degree images are captured and then stitched together to form an interactive panoramic image. When viewing IPIX panoramic images, users are able to select a portion of the scene to view by using their cursor or other pointing device. By moving the cursor in different directions, the user experiences the location in which the image was taken as if they were physically there.

Table of Contents

We believe the market for interactive, panoramic imaging content is poised for steady, long-term growth as the panoramic imaging marketplace continues to expand and mature. Panoramic imaging is becoming a must have in the traditional on-line marketing applications and is finding broader applications across a wide variety of commercial markets.

The IPIX InfoMedia Solution

IPIX InfoMedia (“InfoMedia”) benefits from marketplace drivers that continue to reinforce the need for panoramic imaging. The number of Web sites needing compelling content continues to grow. Acceptance of on-line searching and purchase transactions for travel and hospitality, real estate, automobiles and other markets drive continued demand for panoramic virtual tours in on-line marketing applications. Additionally, ongoing concerns about security, the need to be better prepared in the case of emergency situations and the need to better manage physical assets and infrastructure, have all led to the use of panoramic imaging for visual documentation.

The InfoMedia group continues to be a leader in panoramic imaging technology. Our two-shot photography process creates a light-weight, expansive view image that is interactively viewable and fast to download over the Internet. Our traditional markets, which we continue to serve today, leverage the value of IPIX panoramic imaging as a visual media type that attracts and engages viewers for on-line marketing applications. Customers include professional photographers, creative/design agencies, web developers and marketing agencies. Visual media market customers use IPIX panoramic images for the high-quality and professional way they showcase places, events and products.

New market applications have emerged that benefit from the value of IPIX panoramic imaging in combination with business critical information. These visual documentation markets include facility management, police and fire rescue, government, insurance and corporate enterprise. Unlike the visual media market, the visual documentation market uses the IPIX panoramic images created for their informational value, and often incorporate IPIX panoramic images in a database that links the images to relevant data.

InfoMedia Products

InfoMedia markets hardware and software products that provide a complete solution for easily creating panoramic images. The products are based on patented technology for capturing a Full-360 degree field of view from a digital camera in a manner that is extremely efficient for the user. The products and services offered by InfoMedia center on making this production process simple and efficient. By integrating the end-to-end process, including production workflow, image editing and output options, our platform enhances the workflow efficiency for providing high quality results.

Image Creator Platform (“ICP”)

Drawing from a decade of experience in panoramic imaging software marketing and development, the InfoMedia group has developed and launched its new products built on a core architecture platform. This multi-tiered software platform forms the basis for our product strategy for the next several years.

The platform:

    has an open architecture, multi-function, modular format designed to be the industry standard solution for immersive imaging across a broad range of vertical markets;

    is compatible with both Windows and Macintosh platforms;

    is flexible enough to integrate a wide range of traditional media types such as flat images and panoramas into a single workflow solution;

    opens up our technology for integration into third party products aimed at specific vertical markets (such as forensics); and

    enables a new third party after-market based upon creating ICP plug-ins.

Our legacy Key licensing model is replaced with an open solution that makes it easy for customers to select a license model most appropriate for their particular use. For those companies that license ICP for integration into their own products, ICP includes a customizable user interface that allows quick and easy sub-branding within the user interface. The plug-in architecture also allows ICP to tailor product configurations to the requirements of target markets, allowing the unit to achieve consistency in pricing across the wide range of market opportunity.

Interactive Studio

The first product built on the ICP platform is the IPIX® Interactive Studio™ (“Interactive Studio”). It is our solution for driving the standardization of panoramic photography. The Interactive Studio, which was announced in February 2004 at the Photo Marketing Association International (“PMAI”) tradeshow, represents a highly strategic move for the company in that we have replaced our proprietary “key” licensing model with a flexible enterprise licensing approach. In the new business model, customers gain unlimited annual access to our technology. Our licensing terms offer them a range of pricing models tuned to their particular needs.

The Interactive Studio offers panorama photographers a single integrated solution that can automate a wide variety of tasks previously requiring separate tools. The Interactive Studio makes creating multiple Full-360 degree images as simple a drag-and-drop of fisheye source images into the application, selecting the output file formats desired and hitting the save button. Doing so, the Interactive Studio can output a wide range of formats, including our legacy (“.ipx”) format, QuickTime’s (“.mov”) format, as well as open file formats like cubic and equirectangular. The Interactive Studio includes features including image editors, image format converter tools and high dynamic range image compositors, not previously available in a single panoramic photography solution. With the Interactive Studio, a single batch of 10s or 100s of images can be stitched, enhanced and output using a highly automated workflow, saving the photographer time while increasing the service options that can be offered to their customers.

Because Interactive Studio is based on a plug-in architecture, we are able to work with strategic partners to offer broader solutions to our target markets. We have announced our first two strategic partnerships for ICP. Two leading companies in the panoramic photography marketplace, iSeeMedia and RealViz, previously in competition with InfoMedia, announced plug-in products for the Interactive Studio. These partnerships reinforce our strategy of opening up our technology and growing the panoramic imaging market. Through the Interactive Studio, we provide customers a single solution they can use for the broadest range of panoramic imaging needs

GPS Mapping System

Our GPS Mapping System, developed in partnership with Red Hen, provides everything needed to integrate panoramic and still images into GIS Maps, complete with zoomable layers. The GPS Mapping System includes the GeoBuilder software for batch-building high-resolution panoramic images and Red Hen System’s MediaMapper®, a full-featured map creation and editing software. The GPS Mapping System automatically imports and hotlinks immersive images, still images and other files into multi-layer GIS maps for accurate GPS positioning. The GPS Mapping System allows the user to create interactive visual maps that include immersive images built from the GeoBuilder and other links to visual, audio and textual data. The system works by importing images, matching the time stamps of the images with the log from a GPS unit and then matching the coordinates. These coordinates are then plotted on the maps and linked to the images at the GPS registered locations.

IPIX Movies

The InfoMedia group also markets to the entertainment industry a full service to create IPIX Movies. IPIX Movies are made by capturing two back to back scenes using a fisheye lens on one or more video cameras. The movies are digitized and edited using standard post-production processes, techniques and tools. Each IPIX Movie is processed frame-by-frame for editing, stitching and encoding. Finished movie content can be delivered on DVD’s or viewed over the Internet using either the Real Media format (“.rm”) from Real Networks or our proprietary format and viewer.

IPIX Movies have been used in various travel and hospitality marketing projects as well as on several high profile Hollywood DVD movies releases. Within the travel and hospitality markets examples of the use of the technology include an internet-based promotional for the Atlantis Resort and a virtual helicopter fly-through for the Hawaiian Tourist and Convention Center. IPIX Movies has been used for value-added DVD content for Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone and Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. Additional high profile Hollywood projects are already in the production stage for release to market in 2004/2005.

InfoMedia Markets

InfoMedia’s customers include a broad range of industry leaders in the Real Estate, Travel and Hospitality, Automotive, Publishing, eCommerce, Advertising and Promotion, Education and Entertainment industries.

In the Visual Media markets, our customers are content developers whose expertise in photography and multimedia production command a premium with their customers. These markets include professional photographers, advertising and creative media agencies and web development firms. For these markets, InfoMedia solutions provide a distinct visual media format that is compatible with a wide range of production tools and that offers our direct customers a way to command a premium for development services from their customers.

In the Visual Documentation markets, our customers include a broad cross section of public and private sector organizations that use InfoMedia solutions to document and index places or events. For these customers, our solutions provide a distinct visual documentation format that can simply and quickly capture the complete details of an environment. Also, because the visual data can be combined with descriptive information about the location, these markets can leverage the visual documentation in ways that support their organizational goals.

InfoMedia Sales and Marketing

InfoMedia photography products are sold in the U.S. and Canada through a direct sales model. We use a telesales team of two people located in Oak Ridge, Tennessee. We manage an on-line electronic commerce site for execution of sales transactions. Within the U.S., Homestore is the exclusive sales and distribution channel for iPIX Full-360 degree panoramic photography products into the residential real estate market.

Our products are marketed primarily through the use of on-line Internet marketing. We use a variety of mechanisms to generate new customer leads. We utilize keyword based advertising to generate leads from internet search engine queries and drive potential customers to our web site and on-line store. We offer our software for download and in the process capture customer information for follow on marketing. We manage a database of customers from which we run permissions based marketing campaigns.

Additional marketing efforts focus on creating industry awareness at trade shows, industry consortium memberships and sponsorships, advertising, marketing collateral materials, co-marketing programs, public relations campaigns, sales tools and training and education on our products and programs.

Within vertical markets, we co-market with partner companies and lead customers. Their expertise in the market allows use to leverage our resources effectively without having to undertake large direct marketing campaigns. In establishing technology partnerships with companies like RealViz and iSeeMedia, InfoMedia will be able to jointly market products directly to the partner customers, and benefit from partner marketing and awareness building.

InfoMedia Competition

We currently compete with several providers of immersive imaging technology. We do not believe any of our competitors are dominant in this industry. We compete with these companies on the basis of ease of use, reliability, end user experience and price. While competitors may offer only components of the end-to-end solution of InfoMedia, they may have greater financial, marketing, distribution and technical resources with which to target our markets. Our success will be dependent upon our ability to compete on the cost-effectiveness and quality of our solutions, the success of our indirect channel partners and the tangible value of our solutions.

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

We rely on a combination of patent, copyright, trade secret and trademark laws and contractual restrictions to establish and protect proprietary rights in our products. Our patents are intended to protect and support current and future development of our technology. We currently have over 20 U.S. patents. In addition, we hold international counterparts to many of our U.S. patents in selected countries covering various aspects of our products. We have numerous patent applications pending in the United States as well as international counterparts to many of these applications. There can be no assurance that our current and future patent applications will be granted, or, if granted, that the claims covered by the patents will not be reduced from those included in our applications.

11


Table of Contents

Our success and ability to compete are dependent on our ability to develop and maintain the proprietary aspects of our technology and operate without infringing on the proprietary rights of others. We seek to limit disclosure of our intellectual property by requiring employees, suppliers and customers with access to our proprietary information to execute confidentiality agreements with us and by restricting access to our source code. Despite our efforts to protect our proprietary rights, unauthorized parties may attempt to copy aspects of our services or software or to obtain and use information that we regard as proprietary. We have experienced wrongful use in the past, and although we have taken steps to stop that use, we expect to experience more attempts in the future. The laws of many countries do not protect our proprietary rights to as great an extent as to the laws of the United States. Litigation may be necessary in the future to enforce our intellectual property rights to protect our trade secrets, to determine the validity and scope of the proprietary rights of others or to defend against claims of infringement or invalidity. There can be no assurance that the statutory and contractual arrangements we currently depend upon will provide sufficient protection to prevent misappropriation of our technology or deter independent third-party development of competing technologies.

Claims by third parties that our current or future products infringe upon their intellectual property rights may have a material adverse effect on us. Intellectual property litigation is complex and expensive, and the outcome of this litigation is difficult to predict. We have been involved in litigation relating to the protection of our intellectual property rights. Such litigation, and any future litigation, regardless of outcome, may result in substantial expense to us and significant diversion of our management and technical personnel. An adverse determination in any litigation may subject us to significant liabilities to third parties, require us to license disputed rights from other parties, if licenses to these rights could be obtained, or require us to cease using the technology.

EMPLOYEES

As of March 1, 2004, we employed 63 full-time employees. Our employees are not represented by any collective bargaining unit. We believe our relations with our employees are good.

AVAILABLE INFORMATION

Our website is located at www.ipix.com. We make available free of charge through this website all of our Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) filings, including our annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K and all amendments to those reports, as soon as reasonably practicable after those reports are electronically filed with the SEC.

Item 2. Properties.

We lease approximately 13,000 square feet of space in Oak Ridge, Tennessee for our corporate office and operations and approximately 19,000 square feet in San Ramon, California for our co-headquarters. We have exited approximately 6,500 square feet of office space in San Ramon for which approximately half has been sub-let and we are actively marketing the remaining space to potential sub-tenants. If we are unable to successfully sublease our vacated and unoccupied office space, or if any of our current sub-tenants fail to make required lease payments, our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows may be adversely affected. (See Note 12 to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.)

Item 3. Legal Proceedings.

On November 15, 2002, a First Amended Consolidated Complaint for violation of federal securities laws was filed against Homestore.com, Inc. (“Homestore”) by the California Teachers’ Retirement System (“CalSTRS”). The Complaint is a class action lawsuit filed on behalf of stockholders of Homestore which flows from alleged misstatements and omissions made by Homestore and the other named defendants, which include us. The Complaint alleges that during 2001, Homestore and IPIX entered into fraudulent reciprocal transactions intended to artificially bolster and maintain Homestore’s and our respective stock prices. The Complaint alleges that Homestore’s public statements with respect to these transactions are attributable to us and violate Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. We joined with other co-defendants and filed a joint motion to dismiss, alleging that the

12


Table of Contents

Complaint fails to state a claim upon which relief may be granted, among other things. On March 7, 2003, the United States District Court for the District of Central California granted our motion to dismiss, with prejudice. However, CalSTRS may appeal this dismissal in accordance with the federal rules of procedure.

In June 2003, we filed a lawsuit against Ford Oxaal and Minds-Eye-View, Inc. in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Tennessee alleging patent infringement of certain patents and other causes of action. The defendants in the lawsuit have filed counterclaims against the Company in their response to our action. The litigation is in the pre trial motion stage at the current time.

We are not currently a party to any other legal proceedings the adverse outcome of which, individually or in the aggregate, we believe could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Item 4. Submission of Matters to Vote of Security Holders

No matters where submitted to a vote of the Company’s stockholders during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2003.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion is intended to assist in the understanding and assessment of significant changes and trends related to our results of operations and our financial condition together with our consolidated subsidiaries. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Historical results and percentage relationships set forth in the statement of operations, including trends which might appear, are not necessarily indicative of future operations.

Overview

Our Business

Over the past few years, we have restructured the Company around our higher gross margin businesses. In 2003, our organization moved from being technology focused (Immersive Video Solutions, Transaction Services and Immersive Still Solutions) to being market focused in order to better serve the needs of our customers. We are now organized into three business units: IPIX Security, IPIX Ad Technologies and IPIX InfoMedia, respectively.

    IPIX Security provides security and surveillance products and services for commercial and governmental customers.

    IPIX Ad Technologies focuses on the sale of complete solutions to customers who rely on visual data to create effective directional advertising such as publishers of newspaper classifieds, yellow page directories, on-line auctions, real estate and autos classifieds.

    IPIX InfoMedia focuses on the sale of immersive still technology licenses for the on-line real estate, travel and hospitality and visual documentation markets.

Business Trends and Conditions

Substantially all of our recurring revenue is derived from transaction fees generated by our Ad Technologies business unit. In particular, eBay represented approximately 87% of total revenue for 2003. Revenues in the quarter and year ended December 31, 2003 include a one-time $8.0 million license fee from eBay for our Rimfire technology and other services. As announced in June 2003, we amended our then current commercial agreement with eBay, which was subsequently extended by eBay to October 31, 2003 for a final $0.45 million additional fee. We no longer provide any products or services to eBay as of November 1, 2003. We continue to diversify and add additional Ad Technologies’ customers and are currently targeting image management for publications, on-line and in-print classified advertising and other business opportunities.

Our immersive technology used by the InfoMedia business unit primarily generates revenues in two ways: licenses of software and the sale of camera equipment. In the past, we utilized “keys” to license our InfoMedia technology to capture and save a single immersive image. With the launch of Interactive Studios, we now offer time-based seat or user licenses which permit an unlimited number of immersive images to be captured and saved within a specific time period, usually a year. We sell our immersive products and services primarily into the real estate, travel and hospitality and visual documentation markets. The cost of sales for our licenses is low in proportion to the related revenue. The cost of sales for the sale of camera equipment has generally been 50% to 75% of related revenues. We continue to develop our immersive imaging business for the security and surveillance market.

We also provide professional services to customers that request specific customizations or integrations of our products and services. Providing professional services is labor intensive, and our cost of sales for professional service tends to be 40% to 60% of revenues.

iPIX INTERNATIONAL

In the third quarter of 2002, we entered into license, distribution and trademark agreements with Soroof International, a Saudi Arabia-based corporation (“Soroof”). Under the agreements, Soroof became the exclusive distributor for IPIX InfoMedia products outside of North America and Asia through Soroof’s newly established entity, iPIX International (“iPIX-I”). The agreement, effective July 1, 2002, expires December 31, 2007, unless renewed. iPIX-I has an exclusive license to develop integrated solutions for markets including real estate, travel and tourism and other markets in which on-line marketing is critical. We provide certain hosting services during the term of the agreements.

Under the terms of the agreements, we received a minority equity interest in iPIX-I, however, we do not have the ability to exercise significant influence over iPIX-I operations. We account for the investment in iPIX-I on the cost basis, not as a variable interest entity under FIN 46. We did not make any capital contributions to iPIX-I and we have no commitments to fund iPIX-I. We do have the right, however, but not the obligation, to purchase iPIX-I from Soroof after December 31, 2005 for consideration as defined in the agreements. During the six months ended December 31, 2002, we recognized $0.6 million of revenue under these agreements. During the year ended December 31, 2003, we recognized $0.4 million of revenue under these agreements. On March 21, 2004, the parties mutually terminated these agreements and we returned our minority equity interest in iPIX-I. The termination of the agreements did not have a material impact on our financial condition or expected result of operations.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

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. The preparation of these financial statements requires 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. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to revenue recognition, uncollectible receivables, intangible and other long-lived assets and contingencies. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

We believe the following critical accounting policies affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements: revenue recognition; valuation allowances, specifically the allowance for doubtful accounts; valuation of goodwill and other long-lived assets; and significant accruals. We believe that full consideration has been given to all relevant circumstances that we may be subject to, and our financial statements accurately reflect management’s best estimate of the results of operations, financial position and cash flows for the periods presented.

Table of Contents

Management has discussed the development and selection of the following critical accounting policies, estimates and assumptions with the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors and the Audit Committee has reviewed these disclosures. We believe the following represent our critical accounting policies:

Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue in accordance with SOP 97-2, “Software Revenue Recognition” and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104 (“SAB 104”), “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements.” We derive revenue from product sales and services we provide to customers. Product revenue includes InfoMedia hardware and licenses, IPIX Security hardware and licenses, as well as Ad Technology license revenue. Service revenues are primarily from transactions where a seller uses our image management products to enhance their on-line offering.

Product revenue is recognized upon shipment or delivery provided there are no uncertainties surrounding product acceptance, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, there are no significant vendor obligations, the fees are fixed or determinable and collection is reasonably assured. Initial license fees are recognized when a contract exists, the fee is fixed or determinable, software delivery has occurred and collection of the receivable is reasonably assured. If there are continuing obligations, then license fees are recognized ratably over the life of the contract.

Transaction hosting revenue is recognized ratably as transactions are performed provided there was persuasive evidence of an arrangement, the fee was fixed or determinable and collection of the resulting receivable was reasonably assured. Revenue generated from professional services is recognized as the related services are performed. When such professional services are combined with on-going transaction services or are deemed to be essential to the functionality of the delivered software product, revenue from the entire arrangement is recognized while the transaction services are performed, on a percentage of completion method or not until the contract is completed in accordance with SOP 81-1, “Accounting for Performance of Construction-Type and Certain Production-Type Contracts,” and ARB No. 45, “Long-Term Construction-Type Contracts.” Reimbursements received for out-of-pocket expenses incurred are characterized as revenue in the statement of operations.

Where multiple elements exist in an arrangement, the arrangement fee is allocated to the different elements based upon verifiable objective evidence of the fair value of the elements, as governed under EITF 00-21, which is codified in SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104 “SAB 104.” Multiple element arrangements primarily involve an arrangement with professional services and transaction hosting. Revenue is recognized as each element is earned, namely upon completion of the services, provided that the fair value of the undelivered element(s) has been determined, the delivered element has stand-alone value, there is no right of return on delivered element(s), and we are in control of delivery of the undelivered element(s).

Royalties derived from desktop imaging products were recognized as revenues upon receipt of the royalty sell-through reports from customers, which are generally in the quarter following the quarter in which the sale by the customer took place.

Payments received in advance are initially recorded as deferred revenue and recognized ratably as obligations are fulfilled.

Allowances for Doubtful Accounts

Significant management judgments and estimates must be made and used in connection with establishing the doubtful account allowances in any accounting period. Management specifically analyzes accounts receivable and historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer credit-worthiness, current economic trends and changes in our customer payment terms when evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts. Material differences could result in the amount and timing of expense recorded if management had different judgment or utilized different estimates.

Goodwill

Under United States generally accepted accounting principles, we evaluated goodwill for impairment on an annual basis and on an interim basis if events or changes in circumstances between annual impairment tests indicate that the asset might be impaired. In assessing the recoverability of our goodwill, we made assumptions regarding estimated future cash flows and other factors to determine the fair value of the goodwill. These estimates included forecasted revenues and operating expenses, which are inherently difficult to predict. We believe that the accounting estimate related to goodwill is a “critical accounting estimate” because it requires Company management to make assumptions about fair values. During the fourth quarter of 2003, certain events, including the end of the agreement with eBay, led the Company to perform an impairment review of goodwill. The eBay agreement ended in November 2003 and was the primary source of cash flows for the technology associated with goodwill in the Ad Technologies business unit. This review indicated that goodwill was being carried at amounts in excess of the fair value based on estimated discounted future cash flows of the Ad Technologies business unit. As a result, an impairment charge was recorded to expense in the year ended December 31, 2003.

Significant Accruals, including Restructuring Charges and Sales Tax

We recorded restructuring charges associated with vacated facilities. The key assumptions associated with these charges include the timing and amount of sub-lease income. In addition, in establishing and providing for sales tax accruals, we make judgments based on the actual tax laws and guidance. While management believes that its judgments and interpretations regarding tax liabilities are appropriate, significant differences in actual experience may materially affect our future financial results.

RESTRUCTURING ACTIONS

We executed several restructuring actions throughout 2001 and 2002. These actions and the charges relating to them are described below.

On March 1, 2001, we had 552 employees, but by the end of the second quarter we had reduced our workforce by approximately 440 positions. The reductions were primarily in the full-service virtual real estate business. The first quarter reductions resulted in a restructuring charge of $3.0 million.

In the second quarter of 2001, we reorganized our management personnel, closed our sales offices throughout the U.S. and made further reductions in our workforce. As a result of these actions, we recorded a $7.2 million restructuring charge in the second quarter of 2001. Included in 2001 is a $1.5 million impairment charge related to the write off of the unamortized portion of our directors’ and officers’ insurance policy. We were required to obtain a new policy due to the change in control related to our 2001 financing.

In September 2002, $0.7 million of restructuring charges were recorded related to expenses associated primarily with a negotiated buy-out of certain lease obligations for previously vacated offices. We paid approximately $1.3 million during the fourth quarter of 2002 to end our continuing obligations under those leases.

During October 2003, $0.1 million of restructuring charges were recorded related to expenses associated with the lease obligations from previously vacated office space in San Ramon, CA.

OUTLOOK

We have only a limited operating history, and our business model has been modified over the past three years. In addition, our recurring revenues from our commercial agreement with eBay ended in 2003 which represented approximately 87% of our total revenue in 2003. With the loss of revenues from our largest customer, we are attempting to diversify and add new Ad Technology customers. Our prospects should be considered in light of the risks, uncertainties, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stages of development, particularly companies in new and rapidly evolving markets such as the Internet. To address these risks, we must, among other things, be able to continue to:

    deliver high quality products and services;

    respond to highly competitive developments;

    attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel;

    implement and successfully execute our marketing plans;

    continue to upgrade our technologies;

    develop new distribution channels; and

    improve our operational and financial systems.

Although our revenue grew significantly in our early history, during recent periods, we have been unable to sustain this growth and have had to reduce our expense structure. Therefore, you should not consider our historical growth indicative of future revenue levels or operating results. In order to reduce our operating cost structure to a sustainable level commensurate with our revenues, we have gone through several restructurings during the last three years. We began 2004 with three business units all at different stages in their development.

The IPIX Security group has developed products based upon our proven immersive technology and is focused on a large global market opportunity — security and surveillance. During the first quarter of 2004, the group successfully completed beta trial testing of its new products. In March and April 2004, the group will launch its new products.

The Ad Technologies group has proven technology, strong customer references and is focused on a large global market opportunity — improving on-line advertising. In 2004, however, the group must rebuild its revenue base given the change in its relationship with its largest customer, eBay, which represented 87% of our revenues in 2003.

The InfoMedia group also has proven technology and strong customer references. In February 2004, the group launched a new product called Interactive Studios. With this launch, the group also announced that after 2004, they would no longer be selling one-use “keys” to their core technology. Instead, Interactive Studio will be sold as a software platform under primarily annual licenses allowing for unlimited usage. The group will continue to sell cameras, lens and other equipment that are used with the Studio by professional immersive photographers.

In addition, we are subject to generally prevailing economic conditions and, as such, our success in 2004 will be dependent upon our ability to provide quality products and services, the success of our customers and the appropriations processes of various commercial and governmental entities. We expect to continue to make significant investments in our image management business and in the development, sale and marketing of new products for the security market, which may consume our cash reserves. We are monitoring our cash position carefully and evaluating our future operating cash requirements in the context of our strategy, business objectives and expected business performance. Our focus in 2004 will be to manage cash requirements and focus our operations on efficient spending.

Product Revenues. The increase in 2003 was primarily due to a one-time $8.0 million license fee from eBay for our Rimfire technology and other services. During 2002, we reduced our sales and marketing efforts related to the sale of lower margin immersive kits and keys. As a result of lower sales and marketing expenditures we had $3.9 million in lower immersive revenues year-over-year. As part of the sale of assets to Homestore.com during the first quarter of 2001, we no longer directly sell full service virtual tours or IPIX keys to customers in the U.S. residential real estate market. Instead, through January 12, 2002, we provided Homstore.com certain processing, hosting and distribution services and received transaction fees and royalties. Throughout 2002, other than full service virtual tours, our real estate focused revenues were generated from three primary sources: image management services; camera kits and immersive keys; and other services. In 2001, product revenues of $7.5 million related to full service virtual real estate tours. We did not have any full service virtual real estate tour revenues after 2001.

Service Revenues. The increase from 2001 to 2002 and from 2002 and 2003 was primarily due to increased volumes of images processed by Rimfire, primarily related to on-line auctions for eBay.

Cost of Revenues. Cost of revenues consists of our direct expenses associated with the processing, hosting and distribution of digital content and the costs of the digital camera and related components included in InfoMedia hardware. Cost of revenues, as a percentage of total revenues, decreased to 28% in 2003 from 39% in 2002 primarily as a result of the one-time license fee from eBay. Cost of revenues as a percentage of total revenues decreased to 39% in 2002 from 42% in 2001. This decrease was primarily the result of a lower volume of virtual tour deliveries and an increase in higher margin Rimfire based revenues.

Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of salaries for marketing, sales and business development personnel. Sales and marketing expenses also include commissions and related benefits for sales personnel and consultants, traditional advertising and promotional expenses. Sales and marketing expenses were essentially at the same dollar levels for 2003 as compared with 2002. As a percentage of total revenues, sales and marketing expenses decreased to 26% for 2003 from 34% for 2002 primarily due to the growth in transaction revenues as a result of the one-time license fee from eBay. Sales and marketing expenses decreased $13.6 million in 2002 primarily due to our decision to sell more of our products and services through third parties and become less reliant upon a worldwide direct sales force. As a result, we significantly reduced our sales force and eliminated our field operations personnel resulting in a decrease of $11.5 million. In addition, we eliminated costs relating to technology access and sponsorship fees and decreased advertising and branding expenses, which accounted for $2.1 million of the decrease. To begin 2004, as a result of the changed relationship with eBay, we have taken certain actions which should reduce our annualized sales and marketing expenses by approximately 25% from 2003 spending levels.

Research and Development. Research and development expenses consist primarily of personnel costs related to building and enhancing our digital media infrastructure and immersive imaging technology. As part of the restructuring during 2001 and 2002 and our exit from the full service virtual tour real estate business, our spending on research and development was reduced and focused on our core image management and immersive technologies. As a percentage of revenues, research and development charges decreased to 16% for 2003 from 22% for 2002 as a result of the one-time license fee from eBay. To begin 2004, as a result of the changed relationship with eBay, we have taken certain actions which should reduce our annualized research and development expenses by approximately 15% from 2003 spending levels.

General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and related benefits for administrative and executive staff, fees for outside professional services, bad debt expenses and other costs associated with being a public company. The increase in 2003 was primarily due to a $0.3 million collection in 2002 of previously reserved receivables and a decrease in personnel and related costs of $0.1 million. Professional fees, which include legal fees, accounting fees and public company expenses, accounted for the remaining $0.2 million of the increase in 2003. The decrease in 2002 was primarily due to a decrease in personnel and related costs of $6.2 million. Bad debt expense decreased by $4.7 million in 2002. In 2002, no additional provisions for uncollectible receivables were required; however, $0.3 million was collected from previously reserved receivables. Professional fees accounted for $2.0 million of the decrease in 2002. Expected general and administrative spending in 2004 should be substantially similar to 2003 levels.

Stock-based Compensation. Stock-based compensation expense is included in various expense line items in the statement of operations and consists of the amortization of deferred compensation related to stock options granted to employees and others prior to our initial public offering with an exercise price below the deemed fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant. In addition, it also includes the amortization of the fair value of warrants and options issued to non-employees and restricted stock granted to employees. The related compensation is amortized over the vesting period of the options or warrants. Expenses related to the warrants are amortized over the term of the agreements to which they relate. There was no stock-based expense for 2003 because the related stock options and warrants were fully vested prior to 2003. In 2002 and 2003, we did not issue any additional warrants or stock options priced below the deemed fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant. The decrease in total expense for 2001 and 2002 was because most of the related stock options and warrants were fully vested prior to the end of 2001. The following table summarizes amounts expensed in 2001 and 2002 for stock-based compensation:

Impairment and Amortization of Intangibles. Amortization expense in 2001 consists of goodwill associated with corporate acquisitions during the second quarter of 2000. We adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” (“FAS 142”), effective January 1, 2002. Under FAS 142, goodwill is no longer amortized, but reviewed for impairment annually or more frequently if certain indicators arise. During the quarter ended December 31, 2003, we recognized a $3.0 million impairment of the remaining balance of our goodwill because we were unable to extend our agreement with eBay. The eBay agreement ended in November 2003 and was the primary source of cash flows for the technology associated with our goodwill balance.

Loss on Disposal of Assets. We recorded a loss in 2001 as a result of the sale of assets used to provide residential real estate virtual tours that consisted of the remaining residential real estate assets that were unrelated to the 2000 pooling of Interactive Pictures Corporation and bamboo.com.

Restructuring and Impairment. Restructuring and Impairment charges are primarily associated with reductions of our workforce, outstanding obligations under non-productive leases resulting from the consolidation of certain offices and write-offs of abandoned computers and office furniture and equipment. Included in the 2001 impairment expense is $1.5 million related to the write off of the unamortized portion of our directors’ and officers’ insurance policy. We were required to obtain a new policy due to the change in control related to our 2001 financing which culminated in the third quarter. The charges in 2001 included significant workforce reductions, while in 2002 and 2003 the charges related primarily to changed estimates for outstanding lease obligations. See Note 4 in the accompanying financial statements for a more detailed explanation.

Interest Expense. Interest expense relates to capital lease obligations and in 2001, we recorded a non-cash interest expense of $10.0 million related to the accretion of a promissory note issued in the second quarter 2001 to its face value when the promissory note was converted to Series B preferred stock during the third quarter of 2001 and $0.3 million of interest expense on the promissory note.

Interest Income. Interest income consists primarily of interest earned on cash and investments and in 2002 interest earned of $0.3 million on the patent infringement award. Lower interest income earned in 2003 was the result of declining investment balances.

Loss on Foreign Currency. Loss on foreign currency in 2003 is due to the recognition of cumulative currency translations from dissolved foreign subsidiaries.

Patent Infringement Award. The patent infringement award in 2002 is due to the collection of a previously awarded court judgment for which all legal remedies for appeal have been exhausted and the case was closed.

Other Expense. Other expense in 2001 was primarily due to realized losses on investments sold during the year.

Extraordinary Gain. We recorded an extraordinary gain from the cash received from the sale of assets to Homestore.com in January 2001. The assets were used to provide virtual tours of residential real estate properties that were related to the pooling of Interactive Pictures Corporation and bamboo.com, which occurred less than 12 months prior to the sale.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going-concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities and other commitments in the normal course of business. The report of our independent auditors contains an explanatory paragraph stating that significant matters exist concerning us, including the change in the relationship with our largest customer, that raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may be necessary if we are unable to continue as a going concern.

Since inception, we have financed our operations through our registered public offerings, the private placements of capital stock, a convertible debenture, a convertible promissory note, capital lease obligations and warrant and option exercises. We finished 2003 with approximately $12.3 million in cash reserves (cash and cash equivalents of $10.24 million, short-term restricted investments of $1.10 million, long-term restricted cash of $0.63 million and short-term investments of $0.33 million).

Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities was $9.0 million for year ended December 31, 2003 and $(4.7) million for the year ended December 31, 2002. Net cash provided by operating activities in 2003 was primarily the result of net income of $1.4 million, plus $3.2 million of non-cash depreciation charged during the year and $3.0 million from the non-cash impairment of goodwill expense. In addition, during 2003, accounts receivables decreased $3.3 million, primarily as a result of fourth quarter revenues from 2003 which were mostly collected before December 31, 2003. Net income for the year ended December 31, 2003 includes a non-recurring $8.0 million license fee from eBay for our Rimfire technology and other services. As announced in June 2003, we amended our then current commercial agreement with eBay. We no longer provide any products or services to eBay as of November 1, 2003.

Net cash used in investment activities was $4.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2002 and $0.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. The decrease was the result of lower purchases of computer software and hardware ($2.6 million) and lower net investment activity ($1.4 million).

Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities was $(0.8) million for the year ended December 31, 2003 and $1.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2002. The net cash used in financing activities for 2003 was due primarily to the repayment of capital lease obligations ($2.0 million) and payment of Series B Preferred Stock Dividends ($0.4 million); offset by cash provided by the exercise of employee options ($1.6 million). The net cash provided by financing activities for 2002 was due primarily to the proceeds from sale-leaseback transactions.

We are monitoring our cash position carefully and evaluating our future operating cash requirements in the context of our strategy, business objectives and expected business performance. Management believes we have sufficient cash resources to meet our funding needs for 2004. We finished 2003 with approximately $12.3 million in cash reserves (cash and cash equivalents of $10.24 million, short-term restricted investments of $1.10 million, long-term restricted cash of $0.63 million and short-term investments of $0.33 million). At December 31, 2003, $0.9 million of the above future lease payments have been prepaid and reflected as current and long-term prepaid expenses. Additionally, at December 31, 2003, the $0.63 million long-term restricted cash has been restricted related to the above future lease payments.

In 2004, we plan to launch new products in the InfoMedia and Security groups. In addition, we plan to invest in the Ad Technologies group pursuit of additional customers and revenue growth from existing customers. Depending upon the success of each of our three business units, the timeliness of collection of our accounts receivable and other potential working capital needs, as well as the timing and rate of revenue growth and our ability to control costs, we may require additional equity or debt financing to meet future working capital or capital expenditure needs. There can be no assurance that such additional financing will be available or if available, that such financing can be obtained on terms satisfactory to us. If we are not able to raise additional funds, we may be required to significantly curtail some of our operations and this would have an adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations and cash flow.

Management’s focus in 2004 will be to manage our cash requirements and focus our operations on efficient spending. Our long-term strategy remains unchanged. We will continue to make significant investments in sales and marketing as well as research and development for all segments in order to fulfill our expectations for the expansion of the on-line auction and classified services and in the development of new immersive products and services.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In November 2002, the EITF reached a consensus on Issue No. 00-21, “Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables” (“EITF 00-21”). EITF 00-21 provides guidance on how to account for arrangements that involve the delivery or performance of multiple products, services and/or rights to use assets. The provisions of EITF 00-21 apply to revenue arrangements entered into in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2003. We adopted this standard in the quarter ended September 30, 2003 and the adoption did not have a material effect on our financial statements.

In January 2003, the FASB issued FIN No. 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (“VIE”), an Interpretation of ARB No. 51” (“FIN 46”) and in December 2003, issued a revised interpretation (FIN 46-R). FIN No. 46, as revised, requires certain variable interest entities to be consolidated by the primary beneficiary of the entity if the equity investors in the entity do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties. The provisions of FIN 46-R are effective immediately for all arrangements entered into after January 31, 2003. For arrangements entered into prior to February 1, 2003, we are required to adopt the provisions of FIN 46-R in the first quarter of 2004. The adoption of FIN 46-R is not expected to have a significant effect on our financial position or results of operations.

Table of Contents

In May 2003, the FASB issued FAS No. 150, “Accounting For Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity” (“FAS 150”). FAS 150 establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. It requires that an issuer classify a financial instrument that is within its scope as a liability (or an asset in some circumstances). FAS 150 is to be implemented by reporting the cumulative effect of a change in an accounting principle for the financial instrument created before November 2003 and still existing at the beginning of the interim period of adoption. Restatement is not permitted. We do not believe that the adoption of this statement will have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

On December 17, 2003, the Staff of the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104 (“SAB 104”), Revenue Recognition, which superceded SAB 101, Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements. SAB 104’s primary purpose is to rescind account guidance contained in SAB 101 related to multiple element revenue arrangements, superceded as a result of the issuance of EITF 00-21, “Accounting for Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables.” Additionally, SAB 104 rescinds the SEC’s Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements Frequently Asked Questions and Answers (the “FAQ”) issued with SAB 101 that had been codified in SEC Topic 13, Revenue Recognition. Selected portions of the FAQ have been incorporated into SAB 104. While the wording of SAB 104 has changed to reflect the issuance of EITF 00-21, the revenue recognition principles of SAB 101 remain largely unchanged by the issuance of SAB 104. The adoption of SAB 104 did not materially affect our revenue recognition policies, or our results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

INFLATION

Inflation has not had a significant impact on our operations to date.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

As of December 31, 2003, we had $12.3 million of cash reserves. Our interest income is sensitive to changes in the general level of United States interest rates, particularly since the majority of our investments are in short-term instruments. Due to the nature of our short-term investments, we concluded that we do not have material market risk exposure.

Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.

The consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule of the Company, together with the reports thereon of PricewaterhouseCoopers, LLP, independent accountants, are set forth on the pages indicated in item 15 (a) below of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

This Form 10-K contains certain forward-looking statements regarding, among other things, the anticipated financial and operating results of the Company. Investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. We do not undertake any obligation to publicly release any modifications or revisions to these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances occurring after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. In connection with the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, we caution investors that future financial and operating results may differ materially from those projected in forward-looking statements made by, or on behalf of, us. Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different form any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.

RISK FACTORS

Our limited operating history and recent changes in our customer base makes it difficult to evaluate our business

During late 2003, our relationship with our largest customer changed and in early 2004, we launched new products in our IPIX Security and IPIX InfoMedia business units. As a result, we have a limited operating history of the Company as it will operate in 2004 and upon which you can base an evaluation of our business and prospects. Our prospects must be considered in the light of the risks, uncertainties, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered by companies that have undertaken a substantial business restructuring. To address these risks and uncertainties, we must, among other things:

    increase our customer base for Rimfire services;

    maintain and enhance our brand and expand our immersive product and service offerings;

    attract, integrate, retain and motivate qualified personnel; and

    adapt to meet changes in our markets and competitive developments.

We may not be successful in accomplishing these objectives.

Additional capital or strategic alternatives may be required for us to continue our operations and as a result, the independent auditors’ report includes an explanatory paragraph that states that significant matters exist, including the change in the relationship with our largest customer, that raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern

As of December 31, 2003, we had an accumulated deficit of $504 million. In June 2003, we amended our commercial agreement with eBay, Inc., and we no longer provide any products or services to eBay. eBay represented approximately 87% of our total revenue for 2003. As a result of the loss of revenues from our largest customer, the lack of any sales history for our new security products, our past recurring losses from operations and our accumulated deficit, the independent auditors’ report includes an explanatory paragraph stating that significant matters exist that raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

We believe our $12.3 million of cash reserves (cash and cash equivalents of $10.24 million, short-term restricted investments of $1.10 million, long-term restricted cash of $0.63 million and short-term investments of $0.33 million) at December 31, 2003, may be sufficient to fund operations for 2004, assuming we are successful in the sale of new products and increasing our revenues and continue to see improvement in our overall cost structure. If we are not successful in increasing our revenues or cutting costs, we may be required to reduce operations further or seek additional private equity financing or financing from other sources, or consider other strategic alternatives, including a possible merger, sale of assets or other business combination or restructuring transactions. There can be no assurances that additional financing or strategic alternatives will be obtainable on terms acceptable to us or that any additional financing would not be substantially dilutive to existing stockholders. The holders of our Series B preferred stock have rights that are senior to those of the holders of our common stock in the event of the sale of our Company or in the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up. We have included a “going concern” footnote in our audited financial statements for fiscal 2003. See Financial Statements — Note 3.

Our operating results are highly dependent on the development of new products and technologies, and marketing them in order to generate revenue from new markets

Our results are subject to risks related to our significant investment in developing and introducing new products and services. These risks include: (i) difficulties and delays in the development, production, testing and marketing of products and services; (ii) customer acceptance; (iii) the development of industry standards; (iv) the significant amount of resources we must devote to the development of new technology; and (v) the ability to differentiate our products or services and compete with other companies in the same markets.

29


Table of Contents

Our operating results are highly dependent on obtaining adequate supplies of the components of our products

Our ability to meet customer demands depends, in part, on our ability to obtain timely and adequate delivery of quality materials, parts and components from our suppliers and internal manufacturing capacity. Although we work closely with our suppliers to avoid these types of shortages, there can be no assurances that we will not encounter these problems in the future. A reduction or interruption in supplies or a significant increase in the price of one or more supplies could have a material adverse effect on our revenues and operating results.

Our operating results are highly dependent on generating recurring revenue from our Rimfire service, and we must be successful in adding new Rimfire service customers and generating revenue from new and existing markets

Substantially all of our recurring revenue has been derived from transaction fees generated by our Rimfire service. In particular, eBay was our largest Rimfire customer. eBay represented approximately 87% of total revenue and 96% of total Rimfire service revenue for 2003. As announced in June 2003, we amended our then current commercial agreement with eBay and we no longer provide any products or services to eBay as of November 1, 2003. We continue to diversify and add additional Ad Technologies’ customers and are currently targeting image management for publications, on-line and off line classified advertising and other business opportunities. If we fail to add significant customers and increase revenues in this segment of our business, our results of operations and cash flows could be adversely affected. In addition, we must continue to improve and enhance our Rimfire service. If we fail to do so in a timely manner, or if we suffer a decrease in demand for our products and services, our revenue will decrease.

Failure to manage expenses would prevent us from achieving profitability

We may have to increase our operating expenses in order to increase our customer base, enhance our brand image and support our growing infrastructure. In order for us to become profitable, we must increase our revenues and gross profit margins sufficiently to cover current and future operating expenses. If we fail to do so, we may never achieve sustained profitability.

In response to the Q4 2003 loss of revenues from our largest customer and challenging market conditions, we initiated certain cost-reduction programs. In late 2003, we reduced the number of employees in the business unit which previously supported our largest customer. We have completed the required personnel actions and completed the outsourcing of certain of our network management operations. Also, we are streamlining our external spending on marketing and administration. As a result, we hope to lower our future break-even revenue level. In order to be successful, however, we must replace this lost revenue. If we fail to do so, we may be required to implement further cost reductions that could adversely affect our business.

Since the first half of 2000, we have been reducing costs and simplifying our product portfolios in all of our businesses. We discontinued product lines, exited businesses, consolidated operations and reduced our employee population. The impact of these cost-reduction efforts on our revenues and profitability may influence our ability to successfully complete these ongoing efforts; our ability to generate the level of cost savings we expect or that are necessary to enable us to effectively compete; the risk that we may not be able to retain key employees; our manufacturing capabilities; and the performance of other parties under outsourcing arrangements.

An important cost-reduction action is to outsource most of our network operations. While we have business and risk management plans in place in case delivery, quality or capacity is significantly reduced or eliminated by a co-location facility, our current size does not allow us to have numerous alternative vendors; and, accordingly, our operations

30


Table of Contents

could be disrupted for extended periods of time. As a result, we could have difficulties performing our services and our revenues and operating result could be negatively impacted.

Another cost-reduction action has been to develop outsourcing arrangements for the design and/or manufacture of certain products and components. If these third parties fail to deliver quality products and components on time and at reasonable prices, we could have difficulties fulfilling our orders and our revenues and operating results could be negatively impacted.

We rely on third party systems to provide our Rimfire service

We rely on certain third-party computer systems and third-party service providers, including a third party Internet service provider, to host and maintain our production services for all of our Rimfire customers. The performance and availability of our Internet systems is critical to our business and reputation. Any system failure, including network, software or hardware failure that interrupts the delivery of Rimfire services or decreases our responsiveness to our customers could be disruptive to our business. Our Internet service provider does not guarantee that its Internet access will be uninterrupted, error free or secure. From time to time it is necessary to change the providers of these services. During the period we are moving our services from one provider to another, interruptions in our offerings could occur. Because our revenue from our Rimfire service is transaction based, any interruption in Internet access will result in a loss of revenue for the period that Internet access is unavailable.

Our quarterly results may fluctuate, which could make financial forecasting difficult and increase volatility in our common stock

Our revenues and operating results may vary significantly from quarter-to-quarter. As a result, quarter-to-quarter comparisons of our revenues and operating results may not be meaningful. In addition, due to our limited operating history and restructuring, it may be difficult to predict our future revenues and results of operations accurately. It is likely that, in one or more future quarters, our operating results will fall below the expectations of investors. If this happens, the trading price of our common stock is likely to be materially and adversely affected.

Our success depends on our ability to protect our intellectual property

We rely on trademark, copyright and patent law, trade secret protection and confidentiality or license agreements with our employees, customers, partners and others to protect our proprietary rights. If we are not successful in protecting our intellectual property, there could be a material adverse effect on our business.

While we believe that our issued patents and pending patent applications help to protect our business, there can be no assurance that:

    any patent can be successfully defended against challenges by third parties;

    pending patent applications will result in the issuance of patents;

    our competitors or potential competitors will not devise new methods of competing with us that are not covered by our patents or patent applications;

    new prior art will not be discovered which may diminish the value of or invalidate an issued patent; or

    a third party will not have or obtain one or more patents that prevent us from practicing features of our business or will require us to pay for a license to use those features.

Also, our patents, service marks or trademarks may be challenged and invalidated or circumvented. In addition, we are exposed to infringement of our intellectual property in foreign markets because our intellectual property is protected under United States laws that may not extend to foreign uses. We have been involved in litigation relating to the protection of intellectual property rights and could be involved in future litigation as third parties develop products that

31


Table of Contents

we believe infringe on our patents and other intellectual property rights. We have experienced attempts to misappropriate our technology, and we expect those attempts may continue. We have been involved in litigation in which our rights to technology have been challenged. The cost of such litigation, or the determination against us in this type of lawsuit, could have a material adverse effect on our business.

If we lose key members of our personnel, our future success could be limited

Our future success depends on our ability to attract and retain key management, engineering, technical and other personnel. In addition, we must recruit additional qualified management, engineering, technical and marketing and sales and support personnel for our operations. Competition for this type of personnel is intense, and we may not be successful in attracting or retaining personnel. The loss of the services of one or more members of our management group or other key employees or the inability to hire additional qualified personnel will limit our ability to grow our business.

Our success is dependent upon our ability to adapt to technological changes, and if we fail to do so, our offerings may become obsolete

We compete in a market characterized by rapidly changing technology, evolving industry standards, frequent new service and product announcements, introductions and enhancements and changing customer demands. These market characteristics are intensified by the emerging nature of the Internet and the multitude of companies offering Internet-based products and services. Thus, our success depends on our ability to adapt to rapidly changing technologies, to adapt our offerings to evolving industry standards and to continually improve the performance, features and reliability of our offerings in response to competitive products and shifting demands of the marketplace. In addition, widespread changes in Internet, networking or telecommunications technologies or other technological alterations could require substantial expenditures to modify our products, services or infrastructure. Failure to adapt to new technology in any of these areas could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We may not be successful in expanding our business into international markets

A part of our long-term strategy has been to expand into international markets. The success of any additional foreign operations will be substantially dependent upon our entering and succeeding in those markets, including through distributors, joint ventures or other indirect strategies. We may experience difficulty in managing international operations as a result of competition, technical problems, distance, language or cultural differences.

As we manage our international efforts, we will be subject to a number of risks, including the following:

    failure of foreign countries to rapidly adopt the Internet, digital imaging or other required technologies;

    unexpected changes in regulatory requirements, especially regarding the Internet;

    slower payment and collection of accounts receivable than in our domestic market; and

    political and economic instability.

We cannot assure you that we will be able to successfully market our products in foreign markets.

We are susceptible to breaches of on-line commerce security

A party able to circumvent our security measures could misappropriate proprietary database information or cause interruptions in operations. As a result, we may need to expend significant capital and other resources to protect against security breaches or to alleviate problems caused by security breaches. This additional expense could harm our business, financial condition and results of operation.

Concentrated control over our voting stock could adversely affect stockholders

The holders of our Series B preferred stock beneficially owned over 60% of our outstanding voting stock. As a result, these stockholders are able to exercise control over certain matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions. Such control could discourage others from initiating potential merger, takeover or other change of control transactions. As a result, the market price of our common stock could be adversely affected.

Conversion of Series B Preferred Stock into Common Stock and the payment of accrued dividends associated with such Preferred Stock could adversely affect stockholders

The holders of our Series B preferred stock may at their election convert each share of preferred stock into approximately 9.2 shares of our registered common stock. Accrued dividends on the preferred stock become due and payable upon such conversions. The holder of the preferred stock may elect to receive the dividends in additional common stock or cash. As a result, these conversions could require us to use available funds to finance dividends or dilute existing shareholders by introducing new common stock into the market. As a result, our financial condition or the market price of our common stock could be adversely affected.

Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws contain anti-takeover provisions that may make it more difficult or expensive to acquire us in the future, which could negatively affect our stock price

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws and applicable provisions of Delaware law contain several provisions that may make it more difficult for a third party to acquire control of us without the approval of our board of directors. In addition, in October of 2000, our board of directors approved a stockholder rights plan that has the effect of making an acquisition of us prohibitively expensive unless our board of directors approves of the acquisition. The provisions of our certificate and bylaws and the Delaware General Corporation Law may make it more difficult or expensive for a third party to acquire a majority of our outstanding voting common stock or delay, prevent or deter a merger, acquisition, tender offer or proxy contest, which may negatively affect our stock price.

Because many of our product and service offerings are intended to enhance Internet commercial transactions, the success of our business will be dependent upon continued growth of Internet commerce

Many of our products and services are intended to enhance and facilitate commercial transactions over the Internet. Our future revenues are substantially dependent upon the widespread acceptance and use of the Internet and other on-line services as a medium for commerce by consumers and sellers. If continued acceptance and growth of Internet use does not occur, it could have a material adverse effect on our business.

The Internet has experienced, and is expected to continue to experience, significant growth in the number of users and in the amount of traffic. Continued development and maintenance of the Internet’s infrastructure to handle this increased traffic must continue. In addition, timely development of complimentary products, such as high-speed modems, providing reliable Internet access and services will also be required.

The Internet has experienced a variety of outages and other delays as a result of computer viruses and other damages to portions of its infrastructure. Outages and delays and infections by computer viruses are likely to continue and affect the level of Internet usage generally. Such outages and delays will affect processing of transactions on Rimfire integrated Websites. We will experience a reduction in revenues and increased expenses as a result of such outages and delays. We will be required to continually make capital investments to enhance our infrastructure and protect our services from computer viruses and other outages and delays on the Internet. The cost of such improvements could have a material adverse effect on our business.

Our market is highly competitive, and our business may suffer if we are unable to compete successfully

The market for our immersive products and our Rimfire products and services are new and rapidly evolving. Competition for Rimfire primarily comes in the form of a buy vs. build analysis. The market for immersive products and services is intensely competitive. We compete with other providers of immersive imaging technology, such as BeHere Corporation, Remote Reality and EasyPano. Each of these companies develops and markets products and services similar to ours. We expect additional competition from other emerging and established companies. There can be no assurance that the Company’s current and potential competitors will not develop products that are more effective than our current or future products, or that our products and technology will not be rendered obsolete by such developments. Some of our competitors have longer operating histories, greater name recognition and significantly greater financial, technical and marketing resources. As a result, they may be able to adapt more quickly to new or emerging technologies and changes in customer requirements or devote greater resources to promotion and sale of their products than us. Our business will suffer if we are unable to compete effectively.

Terrorist activities and resulting military and other actions could adversely affect our business

Terrorist attacks in recent years have disrupted commerce throughout the United States and other parts of the world. The continued threat of terrorism within the United States and abroad, and the continued military action and heightened security measures, may cost significant disruptions to global commerce. Such disruptions could result in the delay or cancellation of customer orders, a general decrease in corporate spending on information technology or our ability to effectively market and sell our products and services. Such events could have material adverse affect on our business.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.

None.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer, have evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rule13a-14(c)) as of the end of the period covered by this annual report. Based on that evaluation, the chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that material information relating to the Company and the Company’s consolidated subsidiaries is made known to such officers by others within these entities, particularly during the period this annual report was prepared, in order to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

(b) Changes in Internal Controls. There have not been any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the Company’s fourth fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
IPIX Corporation:

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and the related consolidated statements of operations, of changes in stockholders’ equity and of cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of IPIX Corporation and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) at December 31, 2002 and 2003 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2003, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

As discussed in Note 5 to the consolidated financial statements, effective January 1, 2002, the Company changed its method of accounting for goodwill in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, “Goodwill and other Intangible Assets.”

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, there are significant matters concerning the Company, including the change in relationship with its largest customer, that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 3. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

IPIX CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE AND PER SHARE DATA)

1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS

IPIX Corporation (“IPIX” or “Company”), formally Internet Pictures Corporation, provides mission-critical imaging solutions for commerce, communication and security applications. The Company’s solutions create, process and manage a rich variety of media including still images, 360-degree by 360-degree immersive images and video. In 2003, the Company’s business units moved from being technology focused (Immersive Video Solutions, Transaction Services and Immersive Still Solutions) to being market focused in order to better serve the needs of its customers. The Company is now organized into three business units: IPIX Security, IPIX Ad Technologies and IPIX InfoMedia, respectively. IPIX Security provides security and surveillance products and services for commercial and governmental customers. IPIX Ad Technologies focuses on the sale of complete solutions to customers who rely on visual data to create effective directional advertising such as publishers of newspaper classifieds, yellow page directories, on-line auctions, real estate and autos classifieds. IPIX InfoMedia focuses on the sale of immersive still technology licenses for the on-line real estate, travel and hospitality and visual documentation markets.

IPIX’s extensive intellectual property covers patents for immersive imaging, video and surveillance applications.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of IPIX Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Interactive Pictures Corporation, Interactive Pictures UK Limited, Internet Pictures (Canada) and PW Technology, Inc. The consolidation of these entities will collectively be referred to as the Company. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION. The functional currency of the Company’s Canadian and United Kingdom subsidiaries is the U.S. dollar. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the Company’s functional currency, U.S. dollars, at the exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities and transactions are translated at exchange rates prevailing at the respective transaction dates. Revenue and expenses are translated at the average rates of exchange during the year. Translation gains and losses are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income. Transaction exchange gains and losses are included in the statement of operations and have not been material for any periods presented. As of December 31, 2003, the Company has ceased operations in its Canadian and United Kingdom subsidiaries and the Company is in the process of liquidating such subsidiaries; accordingly, the balance in the accumulated other comprehensive loss account has been recognized in the statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2003.

CASH, CASH EQUIVALENTS, RESTRICTED CASH AND SHORT-TERM INVESTMENTS. The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments with an original maturity or remaining maturity at date of purchase of three months or less to be cash equivalents. All other liquid investments are classified as either short-term or long-term investments.

Management determines the appropriate classification of investment securities at the time of purchase and re-evaluates such designation as of each balance sheet date.

At December 31, 2002 and 2003, the Company had a certificate of deposit of $1,400 and $1,431, respectively, with a remaining maturity of six months and an interest rate of 2.25% and 0.95%, respectively. The certificates of deposit are classified as short-term investments. At December 31, 2002 and 2003, $1,400 and $1,100, respectively, of those investments have been provided as collateral for a letter of credit related to certain capital lease obligations and, accordingly, classified as restricted.

At December 31, 2003, the Company had $630 of its cash deposits restricted as collateral on a letter of credit for certain co-location facility leases expiring in 2005 and, accordingly, classified as long-term restricted cash. The remaining balance of restricted cash at December 31, 2002 relates primarily to certain customer deposits.

Interest income includes interest, amortization of purchase premiums and discounts and realized gains and losses on sales of securities. A realized loss of $282 was recognized in 2001 primarily because of the write down of various investments.

CERTAIN RISKS AND CONCENTRATIONS. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and short-term investments and accounts receivable. Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash and short-term investments are deposited with high quality financial institutions. Accounts receivable are derived from revenue earned from customers located in the U.S. and abroad. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of customers’ financial condition and the Company does not require collateral from customers.

The following table summarizes the revenue from customers in excess of 10% of total revenues:

                         
    Years ended December 31,
    2001
  2002
  2003
    (unaudited)
Homestore
    23 %     16 %     3 %
eBay
    21 %     60 %     87 %

Table of Contents

At December 31, 2003, Homestore and eBay represented 22% and 0% of accounts receivable, respectively. All amounts due from Homestore as of December 31, 2003, were collected in full during February 2004. At December 31, 2002, Homestore and eBay represented 0% and 83% of accounts receivable, respectively. Net income for the year ended December 31, 2003 includes a one-time $8.0 million license fee from eBay for the Company’s Rimfire technology and other services. As announced in June 2003, the Company amended its then current commercial agreement with eBay. The Company no longer provides any products or services to eBay as of November 1, 2003.

INVENTORY. Inventory, which consists primarily of digital cameras and related hardware, is stated at the lower of cost or market, with costs determined using standard costs (which approximate actual first-in, first-out costs). The Company records a provision for obsolete inventory whenever impairment has been identified.

PREPAID EXPENSES. Prepaid expenses consist primarily of pre-payments of a co-location facility, insurance, maintenance and rent, which will be reflected as an expense during the periods benefited. At December 31, 2003, $785 remained from the pre-payment to the co-location facility.

COMPUTER HARDWARE, SOFTWARE AND OTHER. Computer hardware and software are recorded at cost and are depreciated primarily using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives, which range from two to three years. Furniture and fixtures are depreciated over the estimated useful life, which range from two to five years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the term of the lease or estimated useful life, which ranges from one to five years. Routine maintenance and repair costs are expensed as incurred. The costs of major additions, replacements and improvements are capitalized. Gains and losses from disposals are included in operations as incurred.

ACCOUNTING FOR LONG-LIVED ASSETS. The carrying value of intangible assets, computer hardware and software and other long-lived assets is reviewed on a regular basis for the existence of facts, both internally and externally, that may suggest impairment. The Company recognizes impairment losses whenever events or circumstances result in the carrying amount of the assets exceeding the sum of the expected future cash flows associated with such assets. The measurement of the impairment losses to be recognized is based on the difference between the discounted cash flows from such assets and the carrying amounts of the assets.

GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLES. Under FAS 142,“Goodwill and Other Intangibles”, the Company no longer amortizes goodwill but rather evaluates goodwill for impairment on an annual basis and on an interim basis if events or changes in circumstances between annual impairment tests indicate that the asset might be impaired. The Company periodically reviews the net realizable value of its intangible assets, including goodwill, through an assessment of the estimated future cash flows related to such assets. The reviews determine whether future cash flows over the remaining estimated useful lives of the assets provide for recovery of the assets. In assessing the recoverability of goodwill, the Company must make assumptions regarding estimated future cash flows and other factors to determine the fair value of the goodwill. These estimates include forecasted revenues and operating expenses, which are inherently difficult to predict. The Company’s assumptions about fair values require significant judgment because broad economic factors, industry factors and technology considerations can result in variable and volatile fair values.

INCOME TAXES. The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes, which requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities. A valuation allowance against deferred tax assets is recorded if, based upon available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Tax credits are accounted for as a reduction of tax expense in the year in which the credits reduce taxes payable.

The Company did not recognize deferred income taxes for temporary differences associated with its investment in the foreign subsidiaries because the differences are essentially permanent in duration.

As of December 31, 2003, the Company has ceased operations in and is in the process of liquidating its Canadian and United Kingdom subsidiaries; accordingly, the balance in the intercompany accounts with these subsidiaries has been recognized for tax purposes only in the results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2003. Prior to 2003, Interactive Pictures UK Limited was not included in the tax filing of its parent, IPIX Corporation. As a result, Interactive Pictures UK Limited filed a separate return with the United Kingdom tax authorities. Prior to 2003, Internet Pictures (Canada), Inc. was not included in the tax filing of its parent, IPIX Corporation. As a result, Internet Pictures (Canada), Inc. filed a separate return with Canadian tax authorities.

REVENUE RECOGNITION. The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with SOP 97-2, “Software Revenue Recognition” and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements.” The Company derives its revenue from product revenue and services it provides to its customers. Product revenue includes InfoMedia hardware and licenses, IPIX Security hardware and licenses, as well as Ad Technology license revenue. Service revenues are primarily from transactions where a seller uses IPIX image management products to enhance their on-line offering.

Product revenue is recognized upon shipment or delivery provided there are no uncertainties surrounding product acceptance, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, there are no significant vendor obligations, the fees are fixed or determinable and collection is reasonably assured. Initial license fees are recognized when a contract exists, the fee is fixed or determinable, software delivery has occurred and collection of the receivable is reasonably assured. If there are continuing obligations, then license fees are recognized ratably over the life of the contract.

Transaction hosting revenues are recognized ratably as transactions are performed provided there was persuasive evidence of an arrangement, the fee was fixed or determinable and collection of the resulting receivable was reasonably assured. Revenues generated from professional services are recognized as the related services are performed. When such professional services are combined with on-going transaction services or are deemed to be essential to the functionality of the delivered software product, revenue from the entire arrangement is recognized while the transaction services are performed, on a percentage of completion method or not until the contract is completed in accordance with SOP 81-1, “Accounting for Performance of Construction-Type and Certain Production-Type Contracts,” and ARB No. 45, “Long-Term Construction-Type Contracts.” Reimbursements received for out-of-pocket expenses incurred are characterized as revenue in the statement of operations.

Where multiple elements exist in an arrangement, the arrangement fee is allocated to the different elements based upon verifiable objective evidence of the fair value of the elements, as governed under EITF 00-21, which is codified in SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104 “SAB 104.” Multiple element arrangements primarily involve an arrangement with professional services and transaction hosting. Revenue is recognized as each element is earned, namely upon completion of the services, provided that the fair value of the undelivered element(s) has been determined, the delivered element has stand-alone value, there is no right of return on delivered element(s), and the Company is in control of delivery of the undelivered element(s).

Royalties derived from desktop imaging products were recognized as revenues upon receipt of the royalty sell-through reports from customers, which are generally in the quarter following the quarter in which the sale by the customer took place.

Payments received in advance are initially recorded as deferred revenue and recognized ratably as obligations are fulfilled.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS. Carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments including short-term investments, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities approximate fair value due to their short maturities. Obligations under capital leases are recorded at discounted value of the future lease payments and approximate fair value.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT COSTS. Research and development expenditures are expensed as incurred.

ADVERTISING EXPENSES. All advertising expenditures are expensed as incurred. Advertising expenses for 2001, 2002 and 2003, were $4,130, $2,017 and $1,526, respectively.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION. The Company has adopted the disclosure provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-based Compensation” (“FAS 123”) as amended by FAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-based Compensation.” The Company has elected to continue accounting for stock-based compensation issued to employees using Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” (“APB 25”). Under APB 25, compensation expense is based on the difference, if any, on the date of grant, between the fair value of the Company’s stock and exercise price of the option. Stock and other equity instruments issued to non-employees have been accounted for in accordance with FAS 123 and Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 96-18, “Accounting for Equity Instruments Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods, or Services,” and valued using the Black-Scholes model.

The following table illustrates the effect on net income (loss) available to common stockholders and earnings per share if the Company had adopted the fair value recognition provisions of FAS 123 to stock-based employee compensation:

Under FAS 123, grants under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”) have a look-back feature and a 15% discount and accordingly would have had compensation expense calculated as a result. The fair value disclosure associated with the ESPP grants is included in the fair value pro-forma information above.

The minimum fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions used for grants: expected lives of three to four years in 2001, 2002 and 2003; risk free interest rate of 4.7% to 5.4% in 2001, 4.0% to 4.5% in 2002 and 3.5% to 4.0% in 2003; expected dividends of zero in 2001, 2002 and 2003; and volatility of 271% in 2001, 92% in 2002 and 114% in 2003.

In connection with certain employee and non-employee stock option and restricted stock grants, the Company amortizes unearned stock-based compensation over the vesting period of the related grant using the method prescribed in FASB Interpretation No. 28. Under this method, each vested tranche of options is accounted for as a separate grant awarded for past services. Accordingly, the compensation expense is recognized over the period in which the services have been provided. This method results in higher compensation expense in the earlier vesting periods of the related grants.

ESTIMATES. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Examples of items affected by certain significant estimates made by management are adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts, restructuring changes, sales taxes and the carrying value of goodwill.

SEGMENT REPORTING. The Company uses a “management” approach, which designates the internal organization that is used by management for making operating decisions and assessing performance as the source of the Company’s reportable segments. Segment reporting includes disclosures about products and services, geographic areas and major customers for years ending December 31, 2001, 2002 and 2003. In addition, for fiscal years 2001, 2002 and 2003, segment reporting includes the Company’s primary business units: Ad Technologies, Security and InfoMedia.

NET LOSS PER SHARE. The Company computes net loss per common share in accordance with FAS No. 128, “Earnings Per Share”. Basic income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Net income (loss) available to common stockholders is calculated as the net income (loss) less cumulative preferred stock dividends for the period. If dilutive, the participation right of the preferred stock is reflected in the calculation of basic income (loss) per share using the “if-converted” method or the two class method if more dilutive. Diluted income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding plus, if dilutive, potential common stock outstanding during the period. Potential common shares are composed of incremental shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of potentially dilutive stock options and warrants and upon conversion of the Company’s preferred stock and convertible debenture.

The following table sets forth potential common shares that are not included in the diluted net loss per share calculation above because to do so would be antidilutive for the periods indicated:

In 2003, the Company’s common stock had an average share price of $2.39. The average strike price of the warrants to purchase common stock is $12.15 and the average strike price of employee stock options is $6.29. Not included in the table above are 989,762 shares issuable upon exercise of options and 1,057,699 shares issuable upon exercise of warrants, all of which have a strike price above the average share price during 2003.

In 2002, the Company’s common stock had an average share price of $1.77. The average strike price of the warrants to purchase common stock is $3.04 and the average strike price of employee stock options is $9.86. Not included in the table above are (i) 1,935,852 shares issuable upon exercise of options and (ii) 2,438,824 shares issuable upon exercise of warrants, all of which have a strike price above the average share price during 2002.

COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (LOSS). The Company follows FAS No. 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income” (“FAS 130”), which establishes requirements for reporting and displaying comprehensive income (loss) and its components. FAS 130 requires net unrealized gains or losses on the Company’s available-for-sale securities and foreign currency translation adjustments to be reported as accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).

The components of comprehensive income (loss) are as follows:

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In November 2002, the EITF reached a consensus on Issue No. 00-21, “Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables” (“EITF 00-21”). EITF 00-21 provides guidance on how to account for arrangements that involve the delivery or performance of multiple products, services and/or rights to use assets. The provisions of EITF 00-21 apply to revenue arrangements entered into in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2003. The Company adopted this standard in the quarter ended September 30, 2003 and the adoption did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

In January 2003, the FASB issued FIN No. 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (“VIE”), an Interpretation of ARB No. 51” (“FIN 46”) and in December 2003, issued a revised interpretation (“FIN 46-R”). FIN No. 46, as revised, requires certain variable interest entities to be consolidated by the primary beneficiary of the entity if the equity investors in the entity do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties. The provisions of FIN 46-R are effective immediately for all arrangements entered into after January 31, 2003. For arrangements entered into prior to February 1, 2003, the Company is required to adopt the provisions of FIN 46-R in the first quarter of 2004. The adoption of FIN 46-R is not expected to have a significant effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

In May 2003, the FASB issued FAS No. 150, “Accounting For Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity” (“FAS 150”). FAS 150 establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. It requires that an issuer classify a financial instrument that is within its scope as a liability (or an asset in some circumstances). FAS 150 is to be implemented by reporting the cumulative effect of a change in an accounting principle for the financial instrument created before November 2003 and still existing at the beginning of the interim period of adoption. Restatement is not permitted. The Company does not believe that the adoption of this statement will have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

On December 17, 2003, the Staff of the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104 (“SAB 104”), Revenue Recognition, which superceded SAB 101, Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements. SAB 104’s primary purpose is to rescind account guidance contained in SAB 101 related to multiple element revenue arrangements, superceded as a result of the issuance of EITF 00-21, “Accounting for Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables.” Additionally, SAB 104 rescinds the SEC’s Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements Frequently Asked Questions and Answers (the “FAQ”) issued with SAB 101 that had been codified in SEC Topic 13, Revenue Recognition. Selected portions of the FAQ have been incorporated into SAB 104. While the wording of SAB 104 has changed to reflect the issuance of EITF 00-21, the revenue recognition principles of SAB 101 remain largely unchanged by the issuance of SAB 104. The adoption of SAB 104 did not materially affect the Company’s revenue recognition policies, or its results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

RECLASSIFICATIONS

Certain amounts reported in the previous period have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. The reclassifications did not affect the previously reported total revenue, operating loss, net loss, total current assets, total assets or stockholders’ equity.

3. GOING CONCERN CONSIDERATIONS

The accompanying financial statements have been presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, which assume the continuity of the Company as a going concern. During the year ended December 31, 2003 and in the prior fiscal years, the Company has experienced, and continues to experience, certain issues related to cash flow and profitability. Additionally, the Company’s relationship with its largest customer changed in 2003 as noted below. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company believes that it can generate sufficient cash flow to fund its operations through the launch and sale of new products in early 2004 in two of the Company’s three business units. In addition, management will monitor the Company’s cash position carefully and evaluate its future operating cash requirements with respect to its strategy, business objectives and performance. Management will focus on operating costs in relation to revenue generated.

During 2003, the Company changed its relationship with its largest customer, eBay, which represented 87% of revenue for the year ended December 31, 2003. eBay licensed technology from the Company that had previously been used by the Company to provide eBay with recurring services. After November 2003, the Company no longer provides any services to eBay. As a result, the Company has a limited operating history as it will operate in 2004 and upon which an evaluation of its business and prospects in 2004 may be made. In addition, the Company is subject to generally prevailing economic conditions and, as such, the Company’s operating results in 2004 will be dependent upon its ability to provide quality products and services, the success of its customers and the appropriations processes of various commercial and governmental entities. Management believes, however, that the Company has sufficient cash resources to meet its funding needs for 2004. The Company finished 2003 with approximately $12.3 million in cash reserves (cash and cash equivalents of $10.24 million, short-term restricted investments of $1.10 million, long-term restricted cash of $0.63 million and short-term investments of $0.33 million). The Company began 2004 with three business units all at different stages in their development. Management expects to continue to make significant investments in the image management business and in the development, sale and marketing of new products for the security market, which may consume available cash reserves.

Depending upon the Company’s ability to sell its new products, the timeliness of collection of accounts receivable and other potential working capital needs, as well as the timing and rate of revenue growth and management’s ability to control costs, the Company may require additional equity or debt financing to meet future working capital or capital expenditure needs. There can be no assurance that such additional financing will be available or if available, that such financing can be obtained on terms satisfactory to the Company. If the Company is not able to raise additional funds, it may be required to significantly curtail its operations and thus would have an adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations and cash flow.

4. RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER

During 2001, 2002 and 2003, the Company recorded as a separate line item in its statements of operations restructuring charges which consist primarily of expenses associated with reductions in workforce, the consolidation of certain offices, principally lease obligations for vacated offices, as well as a write down of abandoned office equipment and leasehold improvements to net realizable values.

On March 1, 2001, the Company had 552 employees, but by the end of the second quarter of 2001 the Company had reduced its workforce by approximately 440 positions. The reductions were primarily in the full-service virtual real estate business. Included in the 2001 charges is a $1,462 impairment charge related to the write off of the unamortized portion of the Company’s directors’ and officers’ insurance policy. The Company was required to obtain a new policy due to the change in control related to the 2001 financing.

During the third quarter of 2002, the Company recorded a restructuring charge of $687 consisting of expenses associated primarily with a negotiated buy-out of certain lease obligations for previously vacated offices. In November 2002, the Company paid approximately $1,250 related to the buy-out. As of December 31, 2002, $1,049 remained in these restructuring accruals, primarily associated with abandoned re-negotiated lease obligations and long term severance agreements.

During October 2003, $89 of restructuring charges was recorded related to expenses associated with the lease obligations from previously vacated office space in San Ramon.

The activity in the current and long-term restructuring accruals for the years ended December 31, are as follows:

LOSS ON DISPOSAL OF ASSETS

A subsidiary of Homestore purchased certain assets from the Company pursuant to the terms of an acquisition agreement dated January 12, 2001. Under the terms of the acquisition agreement, the subsidiary of Homestore purchased certain computers, furniture, fixtures and equipment and certain sales contracts with residential real estate brokers and agents. The Company used these assets in its operations providing virtual tours of residential real estate properties. As part of the acquisition, Homestore’s subsidiary hired certain sales force and customer service personnel. The purchase price for these assets was $12,000 in cash, of which $155 was paid directly to a lessor for certain capital lease obligations, $7,454 was deposited into control accounts for deferred revenue obligations and the remainder, $4,391, was paid to the Company. The Company also granted Homestore’s subsidiary an exclusive domestic license of certain of its virtual tour technology for the residential real estate market. In the first quarter of 2001, the Company recorded an extraordinary gain of $901 from the cash received from the 2001 agreement, resulting in the disposal of assets used to provide tours of residential real estate properties that were related to the 2000 pooling of Interactive Pictures Corporation and bamboo.com.

The $1,655 loss on the 2001 sale of the remaining residential real estate related assets that were unrelated to the pooling of Interactive Pictures Corporation and bamboo.com was included in loss on the disposal of assets in the accompanying statement of operations.

Computer hardware, software and other includes $6,220 and $1,564 of assets held under capital leases and related accumulated amortization of $2,337 and $1,154 at December 31, 2002 and 2003, respectively. During 2003, the Company disposed of $225 of fully depreciated assets and sold certain assets to a related party which resulted in a net gain of $177 (See Note 14).

GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLES:

Under FAS 142,“Goodwill and Other Intangibles”, the Company no longer amortizes goodwill but rather evaluates goodwill for impairment on an annual basis and on an interim basis if events or changes in circumstances between annual impairment tests indicate that the asset might be impaired. The Company periodically reviews the net realizable value of its intangible assets, including goodwill, through an assessment of the estimated future cash flows related to such assets. The reviews determine whether future cash flows over the remaining estimated useful lives of the assets provide for recovery of the assets. In assessing the recoverability of goodwill, the Company must make assumptions regarding estimated future cash flows and other factors to determine the fair value of the goodwill. These estimates include forecasted revenues and operating expenses, which are inherently difficult to predict. The Company’s assumptions about fair values require significant judgment because broad economic factors, industry factors and technology considerations can result in variable and volatile fair values.

During the fourth quarter of 2003, certain events, including the end of the agreement with eBay, led the Company to perform an impairment review of goodwill. The eBay agreement ended in November 2003 and was the primary source of cash flows for the technology associated with goodwill in the Ad Technologies reporting unit. This review indicated that goodwill was being carried at amounts in excess of the fair value based on estimated discounted future cash flows of the Ad Technologies reporting unit. As a result, an impairment charge of $3,042 was recorded to expense in the year ended December 31, 2003.

At December 31, 2003, the Company has approximately $52,000 and $26,000 of federal and state, respectively, net operating loss carryforwards, which it may use to offset future taxable income as described below. The net operating loss carryforwards, if not utilized, will begin to expire in 2009. At December 31, 2003, the Company also has approximately $600 of deferred deductions related to stock option exercises. To the extent that carryforwards, when realized, relate to stock option deductions, the resulting benefits will be credited to stockholders’ equity.

Internal Revenue Code Section 382 stipulates an annual limitation on the amount of Federal net operating losses incurred prior to a change in ownership, which can be utilized to offset the Company’s future taxable income. An ownership change occurred as a result of the conversion of debt and exercise of warrants into preferred stock on September 26, 2001. The Section 382 limitation has significantly limited the amount of net operating losses the Company can use in future years. Accordingly, the Company has included in its deferred tax assets only the amount of net operating losses that are available under the Section 382 limit.

The Company has recorded a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets because it believes it is more likely than not that sufficient taxable income will not be realized during the carryforward period to utilize the deferred tax asset. Realization of the future tax benefits related to the deferred tax assets is dependent upon many factors, including the Company’s ability to generate taxable income in the respective tax jurisdiction within the loss carryforward periods. For the year ended December 31, 2002 and 2003, the change in the valuation allowance was $7,051 and $7,640, respectively.

The Company’s 2001, 2002 and 2003 income tax provision differs from that obtained by using the U.S. statutory rate of 34% due to the following:

7. CONVERTIBLE DEBT

On May 14, 2001, the Company entered into a definitive agreement with Image Investor Portfolio, a separate series of Memphis Angels, LLC (“Image”) for an investment by Image in the Company. Pursuant to the terms of a securities purchase agreement between the Company and Image dated as of May 14, 2001, Image purchased the Company’s $10,000 convertible senior secured note and received Tranche A and Tranche B warrants to purchase up to $20,000 of the Company’s Series B preferred stock. The warrants were issued in conjunction with the convertible promissory note, and accordingly, based on APB 14, “Accounting for Convertible Debt and Debt Issued with Stock Purchase Warrants” and EITF 98-5, “Accounting for Convertible Securities with Beneficial Conversion Features,” the entire proceeds from the convertible promissory note, $10,000, were allocated to the warrants and the beneficial conversion feature based on a calculation using the Black-Scholes model. During the third quarter of 2001, the $10,000 note and the Tranche B warrants were converted to preferred stock and accordingly, in 2001, the Company recorded $10,000 as interest expense related to the accretion of the convertible promissory note to its face value.

8. IPIX INTERNATIONAL

In the third quarter of 2002, the Company entered into license, distribution and trademark agreements with Soroof International, a Saudi Arabia-based corporation (“Soroof”). Under the agreements, Soroof became the exclusive distributor for IPIX InfoMedia products outside of North America and Asia through Soroof’s newly established entity, iPIX International (“iPIX-I”). The agreement, effective July 1, 2002, expires December 31, 2007, unless renewed. iPIX-I has an exclusive license to develop integrated solutions for markets including real estate, travel and tourism and other markets in which on-line marketing is critical. The Company provides certain hosting services during the term of the agreements.

Under the terms of the agreements, the Company received a minority equity interest in iPIX-I, however, the Company does not have the ability to exercise significant influence over iPIX-I operations. The Company accounts for the investment in iPIX-I on the cost basis, not as a variable interest entity under FIN 46. The Company did not make any capital contributions to iPIX-I and the Company has no commitments to fund iPIX-I. The Company does have the right, however, but not the obligation, to purchase iPIX-I from Soroof after December 31, 2005 for consideration as defined in the agreements. During the six months ended December 31, 2002, the Company recognized $0.6 million of revenue under these agreements. During the year ended December 31, 2003, the Company recognized $0.4 million of revenue under these agreements. On March 21, 2004, the parties mutually terminated these agreements and the Company returned its minority equity interest in iPIX-I. The termination of the agreements did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition or expected result of operations.

General

On May 28, 2002 at the annual stockholders meeting, the authorized number of shares of common stock was reduced to 50,000,000 from 150,000,000. The Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation authorizes the issuance of up to 50,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, 7,421,536 shares of Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share and 5,001,100 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share. The board of directors is authorized, without stockholder approval, to issue up to an aggregate of 5,001,100 shares of preferred stock, $0.001 par value per share, in one or more series. Included in this amount are designated 1,100 shares of Series C redeemable preferred stock and designated 3,000,000 shares of Series B preferred stock. Each series of preferred stock may have the rights and preferences, including voting rights, dividend rights, conversion rights, redemption privileges and liquidation preferences that the board of directors determines. There were 1,115,080 and 1,003,830 shares of Series B preferred stock outstanding at December 31, 2002 and 2003, respectively. There were no shares of Series C preferred stock outstanding at December 31, 2002 or 2003.

Each holder of common stock is entitled to one vote for each share on all matters to be voted upon by the stockholders, and there are no cumulative voting rights. Holders of common stock may receive dividends after all dividends that are owed have been paid to holders of preferred stock. Each holder of Class B common stock is entitled to one vote for each share on all matters to be voted upon by the stockholders and, except as required by law, shall have voting rights and powers equal to the voting rights and powers of the common stock. There are no cumulative voting rights. Holders of Class B common stock may at any time convert Class B shares into Class A common stock, are not entitled to dividends and are not entitled to receive any assets of the corporation upon dissolution or liquidation. During the year ended December 31, 2003, an investor converted 3,948 shares of Class B common stock to 3,948 shares of Class A common stock.

Common Stock

During 2003, the Company issued 771,056 shares of common stock upon exercise of stock options and 79,969 shares under the employee stock purchase program. The total proceeds from the option exercises and employee stock purchases were $1,557. In June and July 2003, certain investors converted 11,250 shares of Series B preferred stock into 103,583 shares of common stock in accordance with the conversion terms of the Series B preferred stock. In conjunction with the conversion, the Company paid them $14 of cash and 4,416 shares of common stock (with a value of $18) in dividends accrued through the date of conversion as required under the conversion terms of the Series B preferred stock. In December 2003, a certain investor converted 100,000 shares of Series B preferred stock into 920,750 shares of common stock in accordance with the conversion terms of the Series B preferred stock. In conjunction with the conversion, the Company paid them $350 of cash in dividends accrued through the date of conversion as required under the conversion terms of the Series B preferred stock. The Company does not receive any proceeds upon the conversion of Series B preferred stock.

Preferred Stock

On May 14, 2001, the Company entered into a definitive agreement with Image Investor Portfolio, a separate series of Memphis Angels, LLC (“Image”) for an investment by Image in the Company. Pursuant to the terms of a securities purchase agreement between the Company and Image dated as of May 14, 2001, Image purchased the Company’s $10,000 convertible senior secured note and received Tranche A and Tranche B warrants to purchase up to $20,000 of the Company’s Series B preferred stock. On September 26, 2001, the Company, Image and strategic investors completed the Tranche B stage of the investment. At this time, the Company issued 1,115,080 shares of the Company’s Series B preferred stock for total consideration of $22,302, represented by the conversion of the $10,000 note, the conversion of $277 of interest on the Note and $12,025 in cash through the exercise of Tranche B warrants. The remainder of the Tranche B warrants expired. The Company recorded a charge of $1,636 to additional paid in capital for costs incurred related to the Tranche A and Tranche B financings. These costs consisted primarily of costs of attorneys, accountants and other directly related external costs.

At December 31, 2003, there are two Tranche A warrants (“Warrant 1” and “Warrant 2”), issued to Paradigm Capital Partners and Memphis Angels, LLC, which are outstanding. Warrant 1 entitles the holder to purchase 150,000 shares of Series B preferred stock at $20 per share and is exercisable at

F-15


Table of Contents

any time before the expiration date of May 14, 2006. Warrant 2 entitles the holder to purchase 100,000 shares of Series B preferred stock at $40 per share and is exercisable at any time before the expiration date of May 14, 2006 (See Note 13).

Each share of the Series B preferred stock is convertible into approximately 9.2 shares of the Company’s common stock and is entitled to vote on matters submitted to holders of common stock on an as-converted basis. However, at any time that the holders of the Series B preferred stock hold more than 50% of the voting stock of the Company, a voluntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company must be approved by at least five of the seven members of the Company’s board of directors. Holders of Series B preferred, in preference to holders of any other series of preferred stock and in preference to the holders of Common Stock (collectively, “Junior Securities”), shall be entitled to receive, when and if declared by the Board, but only out of funds that are legally available, cash dividends at the rate of eight percent (8%) of $20 (or $40 for Warrant 2 shares) per annum on each outstanding share of Series B preferred stock (“Series B Dividends”). The Series B Dividends are cumulative, accrue daily and shall by payable, when and if declared by the Board, upon conversion or as an accretion to the Liquidation Preference, as defined below. Accrued Series B Dividends may be paid in cash or common stock, at the election of the Series B Preferred stockholder. Holders of Series B preferred stock participate on an as-if converted basis in any common stock dividends.

Upon any liquidation event, before any distribution or payment shall be made to the holders of any junior securities, the holders of Series B preferred shall be entitled to be paid out of the assets of the Company legally available for distribution, or the consideration received in such transaction, an amount per share of Series B preferred equal to the $20 (or $40 for Warrant 2 shares) plus all accrued and unpaid Series B Dividends for each share of Series B preferred held by them (the “Liquidation Preference”). If, upon any such Liquidation Event, the assets of the Company (or the consideration received in such transaction) shall be insufficient to make payment in full to all holders of Series B preferred of the Liquidation Preference, then such assets (or consideration) shall be distributed among the holders of Series B preferred at the time outstanding, ratably in proportion to the full amounts to which they would otherwise be respectively entitled.

was estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model and recorded as stock-based compensation over the vesting period of the warrants, generally two to three years (See Note 13).

401(k) Plan

The Company has a 401(k) profit sharing plan, which is available to all full-time employees after six months of service and those part-time employees who have completed one thousand hours of employment during twelve consecutive months. During 2001 the Company matched sixty-five cents per dollar up to 6.15% of the employee’s annual salary. The Company made contributions, net of forfeitures, of $117, $0 and $0 in 2001, 2002 and 2003, respectively.

11. SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company has three reportable segments. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those of the Company. Management evaluates the performance of the segments and allocates resources to them based on evaluations of the segment’s gross profit. There are no inter-segment revenues. The Company does not make allocations of corporate costs to the individual segments and does not identify separate assets of the segments in making decisions regarding performance or allocation of resources to them.

Over the past few years, the Company has been restructured around its higher gross margin businesses. The Company is organized into three business units: Ad Technologies, Security and InfoMedia. The Ad Technologies business unit focuses on the sale of complete solutions to customers who rely on visual data to create effective directional advertising such as publishers of newspaper classifieds, yellow page directories, on-line auctions, real estate and autos classifieds. The Security unit provides security and surveillance products and services for commercial and governmental customers. The InfoMedia unit focuses on the sale of immersive still technology licenses for the on-line real estate, travel and hospitality and visual documentation markets.

As part of the sale of assets to Homestore.com during the first quarter of 2001, the Company no longer directly sells full service virtual real estate tours or IPIX keys to customers in the U.S. residential real estate market. During 2001, the Company generated $7,550 of revenue, with a gross profit of $3,948, related to full service virtual real estate tours. The Company has not generated full service virtual tour revenues since the quarter ended September 30, 2001.

Of the $28,906 of revenues for 2001, $21,356 was not related to full service virtual tours. Of the $16,645 of gross profit for 2001, $12,697 was not related to full service virtual tours. Information about the new 2001 reported segments is as follows:

12. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

COMMITMENTS

During April 2000, the Company entered into an agreement to provide visual content services under which the Company is required to pay marketing fees to a related party of $16,000 over a two-year period. As of September 26, 2001, the Company had paid $9,500 of the $16,000 commitment and agreed to extend the additional $6,500 of payments through September 2003 (See Note 14). There are no amounts due under this agreement as of December 31, 2003.

In 2001 and 2002, the Company sold certain assets totaling $2,840 and $2,494, respectively, to a stockholder and agreed to leaseback those assets over a three-year period. In order to sell the assets to the stockholder during the third quarter 2001, the Company paid off the remaining payments under an existing capital lease of the assets from a third party. In 2003, the Company returned the underlying equipment, with a value of $906, associated with these lease obligations and eBay forgave the remaining balances due of $1,083. The resulting gain of $177 was recognized in cost of revenues in the statement of operations because the underlying equipment was used to generate eBay service revenues.

During the quarter ended September 30, 2002, the Company sold certain assets totaling $1,564 to an unaffiliated leasing company and agreed to leaseback those assets. The net book value and the fair value of the assets sold in these sale/leaseback transactions equaled the sale price, resulting in no gain or loss on the sale of the assets. The leases are accounted for as capital leases in accordance with SFAS 13, “Accounting for Leases.” At December 31, 2003, the remaining balance due under this lease, $608, is due in 2004, plus interest of $15.

During the quarter ending September 30, 2002, the Company received approximately $1,400 in cash from a previously disclosed favorable jury verdict against Infinite Pictures that found the defendants liable for infringement of our patents under the doctrine of equivalents and awarding us $1,000 in damages, plus approximately $400 in interest and court costs. The defendants filed for a writ of certiorari with the United States Supreme Court in an effort to reverse the lower court’s findings in our favor. The Supreme Court refused to grant the writ, which exhausted the legal remedies for disputing the award. Accordingly, the Company recorded the $1,000 in damages as patent infringement award, along with the $400 in interest and court costs, in the quarter ended September 30, 2002.

The Company leases certain office space, co-location space and equipment under noncancelable operating leases.

Future minimum lease payments under these and other operating leases are as follows:

         
2004
  $ 1,044  
2005
    768  
2006
    771  
2007
    64  

Rental expense for operating leases was $2,921, $2,638 and $2,727 for 2001, 2002 and 2003, respectively. At December 31, 2003, $918 of the above future lease payments have been prepaid and reflected as current and long-term prepaid expenses. Additionally, at December 31, 2003, $630 of cash has been restricted related to the above future lease payments.

CONTINGENCIES

On November 15, 2002, a First Amended Consolidated Complaint for violation of federal securities laws was filed against Homestore.com, Inc. (“Homestore”) by the California Teachers’ Retirement System (“CalSTRS”). The Complaint is a class action lawsuit filed on behalf of stockholders of Homestore.com which flows from alleged misstatements and omissions made by Homestore and the other named defendants, which include the Company. The Complaint alleges that during 2001, Homestore and IPIX entered into fraudulent reciprocal transactions intended to artificially bolster and maintain Homestore’s and the Company’s respective stock prices. The Complaint alleges that Homestore’s public statements with respect to these transactions are attributable to the Company and violate Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Company joined with other co-defendants and filed a joint motion to dismiss, alleging that the Complaint fails to state a claim upon which relief may be granted, among other things. On March 7, 2003, the United States District Court for the District of Central California granted the Company’s motion to dismiss, with prejudice. However, CalSTRS may appeal this dismissal in accordance with the federal rules of procedure.

The Company is not currently a party to any other legal proceedings the adverse outcome of which, individually or in the aggregate, the Company believes could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

INDEMNIFICATION PROVISIONS

During the ordinary course of business, in certain limited circumstances, the Company has included indemnification provisions within certain of its contracts. Pursuant to these agreements, the Company will indemnify, hold harmless and agree to reimburse the indemnified party for losses suffered or incurred by the indemnified party, generally parties with which the Company has commercial relations, in connection with certain intellectual property infringement claims by any third party with respect to the Company’s products and services. To date, the Company has not incurred any costs in connection with such indemnification clauses.

CEO and the stock options granted pursuant to his employment agreement. In May 2001, as part of a separation agreement, the loan was forgiven, along with accrued interest of $163. Compensation expense related to this forgiveness is included in restructuring expense for the year ended December 31, 2001.

In September 1996, PictureWorks’ President, currently the Company’s CEO, exercised his right under his employment agreement to purchase 39,339 shares of IPIX common stock in exchange for a full recourse promissory note issued to the Company in the amount of $126. Interest accrued semiannually at a 6.74% annual rate. The note and accrued interest were forgiven. Compensation expense totaling $178 was recorded in 2002 for the forgiveness of the principal and accrued interest.

Transactions with eBay, Inc.

Pursuant to an agreement dated April 19, 2000, as amended, the Company provided to eBay, Inc., which beneficially owns more than 10% of the Company’s common stock, image management services to eBay’s on-line auction Web sites. Pursuant to that agreement, the Company issued eBay a warrant to purchase 60,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $203.80 per share. The warrant expires on April 19, 2010. Under this agreement, as amended, the Company generated revenue of $6,048, $13,368 and $25,087 for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2002 and 2003, respectively. As announced in June 2003, the Company amended the then current commercial agreement with eBay to include a one-time $8.0 million license fee from eBay for IPIX Rimfire technology and other services. The Company no longer provides any products or services to eBay.

During April 2000, the Company entered into an agreement to provide visual content services to eBay under which the Company is required to pay marketing fees to eBay of $16,000 over a two-year period. As of September 26, 2001, the Company had paid $9,500 of the $16,000 commitment and agreed to extend the additional $6,500 of payments through September 2003. In accordance with EITF 01-09, $1,000 and $1,500 of these fees was offset against revenue which amount represented the excess over the fair value of the benefit received during the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2003, respectively.

In 2001 and 2002, the Company sold to eBay, and eBay leased back to the Company, certain computer equipment utilized to provide image management services to eBay and other customers. The purchase price for the equipment was approximately $5,334. The transactions resulted in no gain or loss to the Company. In 2001, 2002 and 2003, the Company paid eBay $194, $2,373 and $1,994, respectively, pursuant to these lease schedules. In 2003, the Company returned the underlying equipment, with a net carrying amount of $906, associated with these lease obligations and eBay forgave the remaining balances due of $1,083. The resulting gain of $177 was recognized in cost of revenues in the statement of operations because the underlying equipment was used to generate eBay service revenues.
