NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include
the accounts of VASCO Data Security International, Inc. and its subsidiaries
(collectively, the "Company" or "VASCO") and have been prepared pursuant to the
rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission regarding
interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the
information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for
complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the audited
consolidated financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated
financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited
consolidated financial statements, and include all adjustments, consisting only
of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the
results of the interim periods presented. All significant intercompany accounts
and transactions have been eliminated. The operating results for the interim
periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for a
full year.
STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
At September 30, 2003, the Company had a stock-based employee
compensation plan. The Company accounts for the plan using the intrinsic method
under the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25,
"Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees", and related Interpretations. No
stock-based compensation is reflected in net income, as all options granted to
employees under the plan had an exercise price equal to the market value of the
underlying Common Stock on the date of grant. The following table illustrates
the effect on net income (loss) and earnings per share if the Company had
applied the fair value recognition provisions of FASB Statement No. 123,
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", to stock-based employee compensation.

NOTE 3 - DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
On July 8, 2003, effective as of July 1, 2003, VASCO sold its VACMAN
Enterprise ("VME") business, originally known as Intellisoft and/or Snareworks,
to SecureD Services, Inc. (SSI). Under the terms of the agreement, VASCO
received a senior secured promissory note with a face value of approximately
$1.1 million, valued at $1.0 million by an independent valuation firm, and $2
million of Convertible Preferred Stock from SSI, valued at $0.6 million by an
independent valuation firm, in exchange for the VACMAN Enterprise assets. The
promissory note bears a 6% interest rate and is payable in 36 equal and
consecutive monthly payments. The Preferred Stock includes a 6% cumulative stock
dividend, payable quarterly, and can be converted into SSI's common stock at
defined intervals beginning July 1, 2005. In accordance with Statement of
Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 144 " Accounting for the Impairment or
Disposal of Long-Lived Assets", the assets and liabilities of this business unit
have been disaggregated from the operational assets and liabilities of the
Company. The results of the operations of VME for the three- and nine- month
periods ended September 30, 2003 have been reported as results of discontinued
operations. Prior periods have been restated to conform to this presentation.

NOTE 4 - STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
On July 15, 2003, the Company reached an agreement with Ubizen N.V.
("Ubizen") whereby VASCO purchased and redeemed all of the VASCO Series C
Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Series C Preferred Stock") and Common Stock
Purchase Warrants owned by Ubizen. Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement,
the Company paid $3 million to Ubizen and issued 2 million shares of the
Company's Common Stock on July 25, 2003. Using the closing price of the
Company's Common Stock on July 25, 2003, the value of the stock issued was
$4,000,000. An additional $1 million will be paid to Ubizen on or before
November 14, 2003. The Common Stock issued by the Company is subject to a
lock-up period wherein the lock-up will expire in increments of 500,000 shares
each on October 15, 2003, January 15, 2004, April 15, 2004 and July 15, 2004.
Once the lock-up expires, the shares will be subject to volume trading
restrictions through January 1, 2005.
On September 11, 2003, the Company sold 800 shares of its Series D 5%
Cumulative Convertible Voting Preferred Stock (the "Series D Preferred Stock")
and 600,000 warrants to purchase Common Stock. The Series D Preferred Stock
carries a 5% dividend, is convertible into 4 million shares of Common Stock at a
fixed price of $2.00 per share and will vote with the Common Stock as a class on
matters presented to the stockholders. The implied value of the Series D
Preferred Stock was $5,714,000, calculated based upon the annual dividend rate
divided by a required rate of return. The warrants are exercisable, over a
five-year period, at $3.47 per share and were valued at $1,455,000 using the
Black-Scholes pricing model. Of the net proceeds from the sale, $5,831,000 was
allocated to the Series D Preferred Stock and $1,485,000 was allocated to the
warrants based upon their relative fair values. In addition, a beneficial
conversion value was calculated for the Series D Preferred Stock as the
difference between the price of the Company's Common Stock at the transaction
date and the conversion price of the Series D Preferred Stock. The amount of the
beneficial conversion, $3,720,000, is analogous to a dividend and was recorded
to retained earnings.
During the third quarter of 2003, the Company issued 25,625 shares of
Common Stock as a result of the exercise of options under the Company's stock
option plan generating total proceeds of $48,082.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
VASCO designs, develops, markets and supports open standards-based
hardware and software security systems which manage and secure access to data.
CAUTIONARY STATEMENT FOR PURPOSES OF THE "SAFE HARBOR" PROVISIONS OF THE
PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including the "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,"
contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 concerning, among other things, the
prospects, developments and business strategies for the Company and its
operations, including the development and marketing of certain new products and
the anticipated future growth in certain markets in which the Company currently
markets and sells its products or anticipates selling and marketing its products
in the future. These forward-looking statements (i) are identified by their use
of such terms and phrases as "expected," "expects," "believe," "believes,"
"will," "anticipated," "emerging," "intends," "plans," "could," "may,"
"estimates," "should," "objective," and "goals" and (ii) are subject to risks
and uncertainties and represent the Company's present expectations or beliefs
concerning future events. The Company cautions that the forward-looking
statements are qualified by important factors that could cause actual results to
differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements, including (a)
risks of general market conditions, including demand for the Company's products
and services, competition and price levels and the Company's historical
dependence on relatively few products, certain suppliers and certain key
customers, and (b) risks inherent to the computer and network security industry,
including rapidly changing technology, evolving industry standards, increasing
numbers of patent infringement claims, changes in customer requirements, price
competitive bidding, changing government regulations and potential competition
from more established firms and others. Therefore, results actually achieved may
differ materially from expected results included in, or implied by these
statements.

months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002. Results of prior periods have been
restated to report the results from the VACMAN Enterprise business as a
discontinued operation.
Revenues
Revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2003 were $5,599,000,
an increase of $859,000, or 18%, as compared to the three months ended September
30, 2002. Revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 were
$16,670,000, an increase of $2,691,000, or 19%, as compared to the nine months
ended September 30, 2002. The increase in revenues for both the three and nine
months periods were attributable to growth in both the Banking and Corporate
Network Access markets.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2003, revenues by target market
were 75% from Banking and 25% from Corporate Network Access. This compares with
83% of revenues from Banking and 17% from Corporate Network Access in the first
nine months of the prior year.
Geographically, 85% of revenues for the nine months ended September 30,
2003 were from Europe, 7% from the U.S. and 8% from other countries, primarily
in the Asia/Pacific region. For the nine months ended September 30, 2002, 84% of
the revenues were from Europe, 7% from the U.S. and 9% from other countries,
primarily in the Asia/Pacific region.
Cost of Goods Sold
Cost of goods sold for the three and nine months ended September 30,
2003 were $2,146,000 and $6,728,000, respectively, an increase of $85,000, or 4%
compared to the three months ended September 30, 2002 and an increase of
$792,000 or 13% compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2003. The
increase in both periods was due to the increase in sales as described
previously.
Gross Profit
The Company's gross profit for the three months ended September 30,
2003 was $3,453,000, an increase of $774,000, or 29%, as compared to the three
months ended September 30, 2002. This represents a gross margin of 62%, as
compared to 57% for the same period of 2002. The increase in gross profit is due
to increased revenues for the period as well as an improvement in the gross
profit as a percentage of revenue in the quarter. The increase in gross profit
as a percentage of revenue primarily reflects an increase in revenue from the
Corporate Network Access market segment as a percentage of total revenue
compared to the prior period. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue is higher
in the Corporate Network Access market segment than in the Banking market
segment.
The Company's gross profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2003
was $9,942,000, an increase of $1,899,000, or 24%, as compared to the nine
months ended September 30, 2002. This represents a gross margin of 60%, as
compared to 58% for the same period of 2002. The increase in gross profit is due
to increased revenues for the period as well as an improvement in the gross
profit as a percentage of revenue in the quarter. The increase in gross profit
as a percentage of revenue primarily reflects an increase in the Corporate
Network Access market segment as a percentage of total revenue compared to the
prior period.
Sales and Marketing Expenses
Sales and Marketing expenses for the three months ended September 30,
2003 were $1,579,000, a decrease of $247,000, or 14% compared to the three
months ended September 30, 2002. The reduction in
-11-
expense reflects reductions in expenses related to personnel and spending in
most discretionary areas, including but not limited to trade shows, publicity,
recruiting, and travel, partially offset by the unfavorable impact of changes in
currency. Average headcount dedicated to sales and marketing declined from 50 to
46 from the third quarter of 2002 to the third quarter of 2003.
Sales and Marketing expenses for the nine months ended September 30,
2003 were $4,589,000, a decrease of $1,152,000, or 20% compared to the nine
months ended September 30, 2002. The reduction in expense for the nine-month
period compared to the same period in the prior year reflects the same factors
as noted above for the third quarter.
Research and Development
Research and Development (R&D) costs for the three months ended
September 30, 2003 were $747,000, an increase of $96,000, or 15%, as compared to
the three months ended September 30, 2002. The increase in expense reflects an
increase in the headcount dedicated to R&D activities and the unfavorable impact
of changes in currency partially offset by lower spending on third party
contractors. Total headcount dedicated to R&D increased from 15 at September 30,
2002 to 19 at September 30, 2003.
R&D costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 were $2,064,000,
an increase of $21,000, or 1%, as compared to the nine months ended September
30, 2002. The increase in expense for the nine-month period compared to the same
period in prior year reflects the same factors as noted above for the third
quarter.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and Administrative expenses for the three months ended
September 30, 2003 were $1,037,000, a decrease of $140,000, or 12%, compared to
the three months ended September 30, 2002. The reduction in expense reflects
reductions in expenses related to spending in most discretionary areas,
including but not limited to contract services, travel, rent, and telephone,
partially offset by the unfavorable impact of changes in currency.
There were 10 persons dedicated to administration at the end of the third
quarter in both 2002 and 2003.
General and Administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2003
were $2,492,000, a decrease of $692,000, or 22%, compared to the nine months
ended September 30, 2002. The reduction in expense for the nine-month period
compared to the same period in the prior year reflects the same factors as noted
above for the third quarter.
Interest Expense, Net
Net interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2003 was
$22,000, compared to $45,000 for the same period in 2002. This change was due,
in part, to an improvement in average net cash balances.
Net interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 was
$120,000, compared to $238,000 for the same period in 2002. Interest expense for
2002 included interest on the settlement of Value Added Tax returns filed in
Belgium for prior years.
Other Income, Net
Net other expense for the three months ended September 30, 2003 was
$5,000 compared to net other expense of $70,000 for the same period in 2002. For
the nine months ended September 30, 2003, net other income was $376,000 compared
to net other expense of $116,000 for the same period in 2002. These
-12-
changes are primarily due to transaction gains reported by our foreign
operations as a result of the U.S. dollar weakening against the Euro.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense for the three months ended September 30, 2003 was
$225,000 compared to no income tax expense for the same period in 2002. Income
tax expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 was $489,000 compared
to $140,000 of income tax expense for the same period in 2002. The increase in
both the three- and nine-month periods reflects the increase in taxable income
of our Belgian operating entity in the first nine months of 2003.
Discontinued Operations
Operating loss from discontinued operations, the VACMAN Enterprise
business unit ("VME"), for the three months ended September 30, 2003 was $7,000
as compared to operating income of $212,000 for the same period in 2002. This
reduction in operating income reflects the sale of operations of VME effective
July 1, 2003. Operating income from VME was $597,000 and $746,000 for the nine
months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The decline in operating
income is primarily attributed to a decline in revenues.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's cash and cash equivalents were $5,524,000 at September
30, 2003, which is an increase of approximately $2,908,000 or 111% from
$2,616,000 at December 31, 2002. The increase in cash was a result of a positive
operating cash flow, a reduction in days sales outstanding in net accounts
receivable and the sale of Series D Preferred Stock and warrants. The sale of
the Series D Preferred Stock resulted in net proceeds of approximately
$7,316,000, of which $3,604,000 was used to repay the Dexia Loan, including
accrued interest of $204,000.
Earnings, before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization
(EBITDA) from continuing operations were $320,000 and $1,951,000 for the three
and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2003, respectively. A reconciliation
of EBITDA to net income (loss) from continuing operations for the three and
nine-month periods ended September 30, 2002 and 2003 follows:
Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended

============= =========== ============= ============
EBITDA is used by management for comparisons to other companies within
our industry as an alternative to generally accepted accounting principles
measures and is used by investors and analysts in evaluating performance. EBITDA
from continuing operations is computed by adding back net interest, taxes,
depreciation and amortization to net income (loss) from continuing operations as
reported. EBITDA
-13-
should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, other measures
of financial performance reported in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States. EBITDA, as defined above, may not be
comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
Days sales outstanding in net accounts receivable declined from 74 days
at December 31, 2002 to 45 days at September 30, 2003.
At September 30, 2003, the Company had an overdraft agreement in place
with Fortis Bank, secured by the Company's trade accounts receivable, wherein
the Company could borrow up to 2,000,000 Euros. Based on receivable balances as
of September 30, 2003, borrowing under the overdraft agreement was limited to
1,520,000 Euros. There were no borrowings outstanding under the overdraft
agreement at September 30, 2003.
As of September 30, 2003, the Company had working capital of $4,653,000
compared with a deficit of $586,000 at December 31, 2002. Working capital at
December 31, 2002 included the $3,400,000 term loan due to Dexia Bank, which was
repaid on September 30, 2003, as a current liability.
On July 15, 2003, VASCO reached an agreement with Ubizen whereby VASCO
purchased and redeemed all of its Series C Preferred Stock and Common Stock
Purchase Warrants owned by Ubizen. Under the terms of this purchase agreement,
VASCO paid $3 million to Ubizen and issued 2 million shares of VASCO Common
Stock on July 25, 2003. An additional $1,000,000 will be paid to Ubizen on or
before November 14, 2003.
On September 11, 2003, the Company sold $8,000,000 of its Series D
Preferred Stock and warrants to purchase Common Stock. The net proceeds were
approximately $7,316,000. The proceeds were used to repay the debt to Dexia,
including accrued interest, and replenish working capital used to repurchase the
Series C Preferred Stock from Ubizen.
The Company believes that its current cash balances, credit available
under our existing overdraft agreement, the anticipated cash generated from
operations, including the realization of deferred revenue recorded as a current
liability, and deposits that will be received in future quarters on orders of
our Digipass product will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash needs over
the next twelve months.
There is substantial risk, however, that the Company may not be able to
achieve its revenue and cash goals. If the Company does not achieve those goals,
it may need to significantly reduce its workforce, sell certain of its assets,
enter into strategic relationships or business combinations, discontinue some or
all of its operations, or take other similar restructuring actions. While the
Company expects that these actions would result in a reduction of recurring
costs, they also may result in a reduction of recurring revenues and cash
receipts. It is also likely that the Company would incur substantial
non-recurring costs to implement one or more of these restructuring actions.
