Item 2. |
Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. |
The Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included herein should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements of Yak Communications (USA), Inc. and Subsidiaries, and the related notes to the Financial Statements included in the Companys Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2002, and the Consolidated Financial Statements and the related notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1 of this quarterly report on Form 10-QSB. Our Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. and have been audited by our independent auditors.
The financial information in Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations refers to our continuing operations.
Critical Accounting Policies
We have several significant accounting policies all of which are disclosed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements. Our critical accounting policies are as follows:
|
|
determining functional currency for the purpose of consolidation; and |
|
|
|
|
|
valuation of property and equipment. |
Determining Functional Currency for the Purpose of Consolidation
We have a foreign subsidiary in Canada that accounts for 96% of our revenue and 91% of our assets as of March 31, 2003. In preparing our consolidated financial statements, we translate the accounting records from Canadian dollars into United States dollars. This process results in exchange gains and losses, which under the provisions of SFAS No. 52, are included as a separate part of our net equity under the caption accumulated other comprehensive income. Under these provisions, the treatment of these translation gains or losses is dependant upon our managements determination of the functional currency of our subsidiary. The functional currency is determined based on managements judgment of the currency that its subsidiary conducts substantially all of its transactions, including billings, financing and other expenditures, which also includes the dependency upon the parent and the nature of the subsidiarys operations.
1
Valuation of Property and Equipment
We assess the impairment of our property and equipment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of those assets may not be recoverable. The factors we consider include changes in the manner of use of the acquired assets, significant negative industry or economic trends and significant changes in technology. When we determine that the carrying value of property and equipment may not be recoverable, we measure any impairment based on a projected discounted cash flow method using a discount rate determined by our management. Net property and equipment totaled $3,354,970 as of March 31, 2003 which represents 21% of total assets.
Results of Operations
Comparison Of Three Months Ended March 31, 2003 And 2002
Net revenue increased $4,288,210 (68%) to $10,591,995 for the three months ended March 31, 2003 from $6,303,785 for the three months ended March 31, 2002. This increase in revenue is from the addition of new customers in existing and new markets resulting from our marketing efforts and consumer acceptance of our products, along with expansion into three new cities in Canada and eight cities in the United States during the period. Sales in markets existing from last year increased by $3,503,148 or 55% and sales in new markets accounted for $785,062 of our revenue increase ($397,589 of which came from our operations in the United States). In December 2002, we launched our flat rate product LooneyCall that added $755,658 in new revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2003. For the three months ended March 31, 2003, 96% of revenue was generated in Canada and the balance (4%) in the United States.
Cost of revenue increased $2,076,777 (43%) to $6,839,036 for the three months ended March 31, 2003 from $4,762,259 for the three months ended March 31, 2002. This increase is in direct proportion to the increased telephone traffic volume associated with the growth in our revenues. Cost of revenue is comprised primarily of the cost of long-distance services, fees for the processing and transporting of our calls, and fixed line access and variable line usage costs. The overall cost of revenue decreased to 64% of sales for the three months ended March 31, 2003, from 75% of sales for the three months ended March 31, 2002. The majority of the cost of revenue is variable, based upon the cost of the long-distance services, processing fees and line usage costs. As our telephone traffic volume increased, our purchasing power improved significantly; this has allowed us to lower our long-distance costs. Furthermore, as our telephone volume increases, many costs such as line access costs will remain fixed, which allows us to improve our margins.
The cost of long-distance services decreased to 38% for the three months ended March 31, 2003 from 42% for the three months ended March 31, 2002. This is due to our greater purchasing power resulting from our higher volumes of traffic, and lower costs resulting from overcapacity in our industry.
2
Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) increased $1,036,334 or 125% to $1,864,659 for the three months ended March 31, 2003 from $828,325 for the three months ended March 31, 2002. The increase is primarily due to additional spending for marketing and advertising in order to attract new customers and increase our revenue base. Of this increase, advertising and promotion was the largest component ($857,596) for the three months ended March 31, 2003, increasing from $261,058 for the three months ended March 31, 2002; of the former amount, we spent $63,031 in advertising and marketing costs to develop our operations in the United States. The next largest component of SG&A was salaries, which increased to $439,138 for the three months ended March 31, 2003, from $241,780 for the three months ended March 31, 2002. The increase in salaries resulted from hiring additional administrative, technical and customer service employees, which were required to support our growth in sales. These selling, general and administrative expenses, other than marketing, are expected to rise at a lower rate than that of our projected revenue increases.
Organizational and start-up costs for the development of our subsidiary, Yak Communications (America), Inc., and in connection with our joint venture in Peru with Digital Way SA were $64,073 for the three months ended March 31, 2003, compared to $98,328 for the three months ended March 31, 2002. The latter amount includes $30,253 spent to continue development of international operations in Peru for the three months ended March 31, 2003. These costs were composed primarily of legal and consulting fees incurred to obtain the regulatory licenses and contracts required to commence U.S. operations.
Accounts receivable financing costs related to the factoring of our trade accounts receivable have decreased $67,982 or 43% to $89,816 for the three months ended March 31, 2003, as compared to $157,798 for the three months ended March 31, 2002. This change is a direct result of the reduced borrowing costs with respect to the factoring of an accounts receivable, which were the result of the renegotiation of our factoring arrangement in February 2002.
Depreciation and amortization increased $46,468 (39%) to $165,905 for the three months ended March 31, 2003, as compared to $119,437 for the three months ended March 31, 2002. This increase is a result of total, year to-date capital spending of our Company of $514,185 for the last three months.
Net income increased by $836,606 to $1,061,042 for the three months ended March 31, 2003, from $224,436 for the three months ended March 31, 2002. This increase takes into account an income tax provision of $534,983 for the three months ended March 31, 2003, and none for the three months ended March 31, 2002, due to the application of prior periods income tax losses carried forward.
Comparison Of Nine Months Ended March 31, 2003 And 2002
Net revenue increased $10,648,426 (61%) to $28,068,189 for the nine months ended March 31, 2003 from $17,419,763 for the nine months ended March 31, 2002. This increase in revenue is from the addition of new customers in existing and new markets resulting from our marketing efforts
3
and consumer acceptance of our products, along with expansion into six new cities in Canada and ten cities in the United States from 2001. Sales in markets existing from last year increased by $8,814,877 or 51% and sales in new markets accounted for $1,833,549 of our revenue increase ($1,067,449 of which came from our operations in the United States). In December 2002, we launched our product LooneyCall that has added $824,636 in new revenue for the nine months ended March 31, 2003. For the nine months ended March 31, 2003, 96% of revenue was generated in Canada and the balance (4%) in the United States.
Cost of revenue increased $4,411,298 (33%) to $17,671,907 for the nine months ended March 31, 2003 from $13,260,609 for the nine months ended March 31, 2002. This increase is in direct proportion to the increased telephone traffic volume associated with the growth in our revenues. Cost of revenue is comprised primarily of the cost of long-distance services, fees for the processing and transporting of our calls, and fixed line access costs and variable line usage costs. The overall cost of revenue decreased to 62% of sales for the nine months ended March 31, 2003, from 76% of sales for the nine months ended March 31, 2002. The majority of the cost of revenue is variable, based upon the cost of the long-distance services, processing fees and line usage costs. As our telephone traffic volume increased, our purchasing power improved significantly; this has allowed us to lower our long-distance costs. Furthermore, as our telephone volume increases, many costs such as line access costs will remain fixed, which allows us to improve our margins.
The costs of long-distance services decreased to 36% for the nine months ended March 31, 2003 from 45% for the nine months ended March 31, 2002. This is due to our greater purchasing power resulting from our higher volumes of traffic, and lower cost resulting from overcapacity in our industry.
Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) increased $2,642,506 or 102% to $5,213,447 for the nine months ended March 31, 2003 from $2,570,941 for the nine months ended March 31, 2002. The increase is primarily due to additional spending for marketing and advertising in order to attract new customers and increase our revenue base. Of the increase, advertising and promotion was the largest component ($2,893,343) for the nine months ended March 31, 2003, increasing from $961,922 for the nine months ended March 31, 2002; of the former amount, we spent $904,237 in advertising and marketing costs to develop our operations in the United States, as compared to $15,852 for the comparable period in 2002. The next largest component of SG&A was salaries, which increased to $1,114,601 for the nine months ended March 31, 2003 from $700,873 for the nine months ended March 31, 2002. The increase in salaries was a result of hiring additional administrative, technical and customer service employees, which were required to support our growth in sales. These selling, general and administrative expenses, other than marketing, are expected to rise at a lower rate than that of our projected revenue increases.
Organizational and start-up costs for the development of our subsidiary, Yak Communications (America), Inc., and in connection with our joint venture in Peru with Digital Way SA were $415,966 for the nine months ended March 31, 2003, compared to $170,361 for the nine months ended March 31, 2002. These costs were composed primarily of legal and consulting fees incurred to obtain the regulatory licenses and contracts required to commence U.S. operations. We
4
spent $275,612 to develop international operations in Peru for the nine months ended March 31, 2003.
Accounts receivable financing costs related to the factoring of our trade accounts receivable have decreased $135,632 or 32% to $291,771 for the nine months ended March 31, 2003, as compared to $427,403 for the nine months ended March 31, 2002. This change is a direct result of the reduced borrowing costs with respect to a factoring of an accounts receivable, which were the result of the renegotiation of our factoring arrangement in February 2002.
Depreciation and amortization increased $177,134 (51%) to $524,726 for the nine months ended March 31, 2003, as compared to $347,592 for the nine months ended March 31, 2002. This increase is a result of total, year-to-date capital spending by our Company of $1,011,473 for the last nine months and accelerated depreciation of $100,000 for equipment no longer in use.
Net income increased by $2,011,537 to $2,444,291 for the nine months ended March 31, 2003, from $432,754 for the nine months ended March 31, 2002. This increase takes into account an income tax provision of $1,494,716 for the nine months ended March 31, 2003, and none for the nine months ended March 31, 2002, due to the application of prior periods income tax losses carried forward.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our liquidity requirements are for operating activities, purchases of capital assets and interest and principal payments on outstanding indebtedness. To date, we have financed our growth through the private placement of equity securities, borrowings, accounts receivable financing, vendor financing and capital lease financing.
Net cash provided from operating activities was $3,140,781 for the nine months ended March 31, 2003, as compared to $899,737 for the nine months ended March 31, 2002. This was due to a significant increase in our net income from operating activities (before non-cash items) to $3,060,211 for the nine months ended March 31, 2003, as compared to a net income from operating activities (before non-cash items) of $860,346 for the nine months ended March 31, 2002.
Net cash used in investing activities was $1,629,173 for the nine months ended March 31, 2003, as compared to $366,394 for the nine months ended March 31, 2002. These investing activities comprise the cash component of the additions to our property and equipment required to maintain and expand our systems and operations. In addition to the above, we invested $117,770 in our initial investment in our joint venture operation in Peru, and invested $500,000 for an equity interest in Odyssey Management Group Inc.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $846,442 for the nine months ended March 31, 2003, as compared to net cash used in financing activities of $242,736 for the nine months ended March 31, 2002. This increase is primarily due to advances arising from our marketing agreement with Telus Communications, Inc. of $1,765,059. These advance payments are described in our
5
annual report on Form 10-KSB/A, dated February 24, 2003. We also used $800,000 in cash to re-purchase 400,000 of our outstanding common shares.
We do not have any plans for any further significant acquisitions of property and equipment during the current fiscal year. We believe we have sufficient fixed capacity to accommodate our anticipated volume of telephony traffic in both Canada and the United States during fiscal 2003. We expect that the only capital additions expected to be made during fiscal year 2003 will be those required to maintain our existing telephone capacity, which are not expected to be greater than the capital additions made during fiscal year 2002. The proposed acquisition of Contour Telecom Inc. and Argos Telecom Inc. (see Item 5 - Other Events) may require us to make additional capital expenditures to accommodate increased telephony traffic.
We believe that our current operations will be able to generate sufficient cash to meet our current obligations and maintain our current level of operations. We anticipate that additional working capital that will be required will be funded by increasing our available borrowings under our accounts receivable factoring arrangements. We have $6,000,000 available under our current accounts receivable factoring agreement of which approximately $2,860,000 is currently outstanding. In addition, we may seek to obtain additional funds from public or private equity or debt offerings; however, we have no plans to do so at this time. We do not intend to significantly increase our marketing efforts in the United States until we are able to determine the likelihood for success of our business model in the United States.
In addition to the financing sources described above, our arrangement with Telus Communications, Inc. may provide a further $810,000 of funds for specific use in marketing and advertising our planned expansion. These amounts are reflected as deferrals of amounts otherwise due to Telus Communications, Inc. (see discussion above).
Seasonality
The results of any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results that might be expected during a full fiscal year; however, we do not believe our business is particularly seasonal in nature.
Trends
Over the past year, several major telecommunication companies have had to reconsolidate or reorganize pursuant to various bankruptcy proceedings partly due to excess capacity. This excess capacity has resulted in decreasing prices for long-distance and other telecommunications services. Once the consolidation of capacity providers in the telecommunications industry stabilizes we anticipate that prices in the industry will become more stable.
The introduction, and subsequent success, of our LooneyCall product beginning in December 2002, has resulted in an increased marketing effort in our Canadian markets which we expect will continue over the next 12 months. Due to this trend, we have not aggressively marketed
6
our product in the United States and we do not expect a material increase in marketing expenditures in this regard over the next 12 months.
In order to increase sales in our existing markets, we plan to develop new services to compliment our dial-around program. In addition, we are evaluating international opportunities for our services in markets outside of North America.
FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
From time to time, we make statements about our future results in this Form 10-QSB that may constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements are based on our current expectations and the current economic environment. Such statements are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties that could cause actual future results and developments to differ materially from those currently projected. We caution you that these statements are not guarantees of future performance. They involve a number of risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict. Our actual results could differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements. Important assumptions and other important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements, include, but are not limited to: (i) access to sufficient working capital to meet our operating and financial needs; (ii) our ability to respond to growing competition in our markets for discount long distance services as well as the extent, timing and success of such competition; (iii) our ability to expand into new markets and to effectively manage our growth; (iv) the profitability of our entry and expansion into the U.S. market; (v) customer acceptance and effectiveness of us as a discount long distance provider and our ability to assimilate new technology and to adapt to technological change in the telecommunications industry; (vi) our ability to develop and provide voice over internet and web-based communications services; (vii) changes in, or failure to comply with, applicable governmental regulations; (viii) our reliance on our key personnel and the availability of qualified personnel; (ix) the duration and extent of the current economic downturn, especially in Canada; (x) general economic conditions or material adverse changes in markets we serve; (xi) the risk that our analyses of these risks could be incorrect and that the strategies developed to address them could be unsuccessful; (xii) changes in our accounting assumptions that regulatory agencies (including the Securities and Exchange Commission) may require or that result from changes in the accounting rules or their application, which could result in an impact on our earnings; and (xiii) the various other factors discussed in this filing.
Item 3. |

On May 6, 2003, the Company announced that Yak Communications (Canada) Inc., its wholly-owned subsidiary, entered into an agreement to acquire for cash Contour Telecom Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Argos Telecom Inc., from AT&T Canada Inc. We are acquiring Contour and Argos as complete operating units, including all employees. The transaction, is expected to close in early July 2003, and is subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions.

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States 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 consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. These estimates are reviewed periodically and, as adjustments become necessary, they are reported in earnings in the period in which they become known.
Computation of earnings per common share
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing the earnings attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed giving effect to all dilutive potential common shares that were outstanding during the period. Dilutive potential common shares consist of incremental common shares issuable upon exercise of convertible preferred stock and stock options.
Foreign currency translation and foreign assets
In accordance with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS), No. 52, Foreign Currency Translation, assets and liabilities of the Companys foreign subsidiary were translated into United States dollars at the exchange rates in effect on the reporting date. Income and expenses are translated at an average exchange rate for the respective period. For the foreign subsidiary which utilizes its local currency as its functional currency, the resulting translation gains and losses are included in other comprehensive income. Gains or losses resulting from foreign exchange transactions are reflected in earnings.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (contd)
Property and equipment (contd)
The Company periodically evaluates the realizability of its property and equipment. In making such evaluations, the Company compares certain financial indicators such as expected undiscounted future revenues and cash flows to the carrying amount of the assets.
Assets under capital lease are amortized using rates consistent with similar assets.
Income taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 Accounting for Income Taxes which requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed annually for differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. The income tax provision is the tax payable or refundable for the period plus or minus the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities.
Cost of Start-up Activities
The Company expenses the cost of start-up activities and organizational costs as incurred in accordance with statement of position 98-5 Reporting on the Costs of Start-up Activities.

Advertising and promotion expense
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. The costs of promotional marketing materials are deferred and expensed as used.
Stock option plan
The Company accounts for stock options issued to employees in accordance with SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, which permits entities to continue to apply the provisions of Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No.25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and provide pro forma disclosures of the effect on net income and net income per share for employee stock option grants as if the fair value based method, as defined in SFAS No. 123 in its annual consolidated financial statements, has been applied. The Company has elected to apply the provisions of APB Opinion No. 25 and provide the pro forma disclosures required by SFAS No. 123. Under APB Opinion No. 25, the Company recognizes no compensation expense related to employee stock options, as no options are granted at a price below the fair market value on the day of grant.
Comprehensive income
The Company reports and presents comprehensive income and its components in accordance with SFAS No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income. SFAS No. 130 requires only additional disclosures in the consolidated financial statements; it does not affect the Companys financial position or results of operations.
Other comprehensive income is comprised of the foreign translation adjustment arising from the conversion from Canadian dollars to U.S. dollars and is presented as a separate component of stockholders equity.

Fair value of financial instruments
SFAS No. 107, Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments, requires disclosure of the fair value of certain financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate fair value. For purpose of the disclosure requirements, the fair value of a financial instrument is the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced sale or liquidation. The carrying values of cash, receivables, accounts payable, and other current liabilities are reasonable estimates of their fair value due to the short-term maturity of the underlying financial instruments. The carrying value of the capital leases is a reasonable estimate of its fair value based on current rates for equipment obligations.
The estimated difference between the carrying value and the fair value of the advances from Telus Communications Inc. in which no interest has been charged is not material.

STOCK OPTION PLAN
Effective June 30, 1999, the Company adopted a Stock Option Plan (the Plan) which permits the issuance of stock options to selected employees and directors. The Company reserved 640,000 shares of common stock for grant under the Plan. Options granted may be either nonqualified or incentive stock options and will expire no later than 20 years from the date of grant (10 years for incentive options). No options have been issued under this plan.
On December 21, 2000, nonqualified options for 1,284,000 common shares were granted to an individual who is a director and chief executive officer and are exercisable at $1.56 per share on or before December 31, 2003, or upon the sale of the Company. In the event of the chief executive officers death or termination of employment prior to the exercise of the options and before December 31, 2003, the Company is obligated to purchase the optioned shares at a price equal to the fair market value of the shares less the option price. The purchase consideration of the option shares shall be in stock of the Company.
If compensation cost for the Companys grants for stock-based compensation had been recorded consistent with the fair value-based method of accounting per SFAS No. 123, the Companys pro forma net income (loss), and pro forma basic and diluted net income (loss) per share for the nine months ending March 31, would be as follows:
