VCAMPUS CORPORATION

 

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

Note A — Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any future period, including the year ending December 31, 2003. For further information, refer to the audited financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the VCampus Corporation (“VCampus” or the “Company”) Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002.

 

Note B — Significant Accounting Policies

 

     In December 2002, the FASB issued Statement No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure”. This statement amends SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation”, to provide alternative methods of transition to SFAS No. 123’s fair value method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. SFAS No. 148 also amends the disclosure provisions in SFAS No. 123 and APB Opinion No. 28, “Interim Financial Reporting”, to require disclosure in the summary of significant accounting policies of the effects of an entity’s accounting policy with respect to stock-based employee compensation

on reported net income and earnings per share in annual and interim consolidated financ ial statements. The adoption of the disclosure only requirements of SFAS No. 148 did not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

     The Company uses the intrinsic value method for stock option grants to individuals defined as employees under which no compensation is recognized for options granted at or above the fair market value of the underlying stock on the grant date. The Company uses the fair value method for stock options granted for services rendered by non-employees in accordance with the SFAS No. 123 “Accounting for Stock Based Compensation”.

     The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of FASB Statement No. 123, to stock-based employee compensation.

Note C — Equity Transactions

 

     In February 2003, the Company issued 10,125 and 226 shares of Series G Preferred Stock at a purchase price of $39.50 per share to accredited investors and a placement agent, respectively.  Under the terms of this financing, the Company also issued five-year fully vested warrants to purchase 25,313 and 564 shares of common stock at $4.35 per share to the same accredited investors and placement agent, respectively.  Each share of Series G Preferred Stock is initially convertible into 10 shares of common stock at any time at the election of the holder.  The excess of the value of common stock into which the Series G Preferred Stock is convertible over the proceeds allocated to the Preferred Stock amounted to $48,995.  Such amount represented a beneficial conversion feature discount and was immediately recognized as a deemed dividend to preferred stockholders.

 

     In March 2003, the Company issued 18,370 shares of Series G Preferred Stock at a purchase price of $27.22 per share to accredited investors.  Under the terms of this financing, the Company also issued five-year fully vested warrants to purchase 45,925 shares of common stock at $2.99 per share to the same accredited investors.  Each share of Series G Preferred Stock is initially convertible into 10 shares of common stock at any time at the election of the holder.  The excess of the value of common stock into which the Series G

Preferred Stock is convertible over the proceeds allocated to the Preferred Stock amounted to $103,186.  Such amount represented a beneficial conversion feature discount and was immediately recognized as a deemed dividend to preferred stockholders.  The issuance of the Series G Preferred Stock in March 2003 triggered an antidilution adjustment in the conversion price of the Series G Preferred Stock issued in February 2003 from $3.95 to $2.72.  As a result, the number of common shares potentially issuable upon conversion of the Series G Preferred Stock issued in February 2003 has increased from 103,527 to 150,229.  The Company recorded a deemed dividend of $184,481 in connection with this adjustment.

Note F — Legal Proceedings

 

     In June 2002, a former employee (separated in June 1998) filed suit against the Company in Dallas County, Texas. The suit alleges damages in the following amounts: $56,250 from an allegedly earned unpaid bonus, $231,250 based on an alleged change of control in the Company and $360,000 for the Company’s alleged failure to allow him to exercise stock options. After thorough investigations, the Company has rejected this former employee’s claims several times in the past and the Company continues to believe these claims are without merit and plans to vigorously defend against them. The case was subject to mediation in December 2002, which failed to produce a settlement. The case is scheduled for trial in September 2003.  The plaintiff filed a motion for partial summary judgment on the issue of the unpaid bonus.  The court has preliminarily ruled that the former employee is entitled to a payment of $56,250 for his bonus claim. Although the Court’s ruling is preliminary, the Company has accrued for it. The Company is currently negotiating a full settlement with the former employee. The Company at this time cannot provide a definitive estimate of legal fees required for the case; however they may become material as the case progresses. The Company cannot estimate at this time the amount or probability of additional liabilities to be incurred, if any. Accordingly, no additional amounts have been accrued in the financial statements.

 

      In March 2003, the Montgomery County, Maryland Circuit Court issued an order for VCampus to pay its landlord in Rockville, Maryland $93,453 of back rent due and all future rents ($499,535) less any rents received by the landlord from any re-leasing of the premises. The order calls for the future rent amount to be paid monthly at a rate of $13,433 through the end of the lease term in 2005. The Company plans to contest the liability for future rents beyond December 2003 ($323,231) per the lease terms. The liability for back rents and rents through December 2003 and attorney’s fees is reflected on the Company’s balance sheet. The Company cannot provide a definitive estimate of the probability of the liability to be incurred, if any, for rent beyond December 2003. Accordingly, no amounts have been accrued in the financial statements for this potential liability.

Note G — Subsequent Pro Forma Events

 

     In May 2003, the Company issued 5,585 shares of Series H Preferred Stock at a purchase price of $240.00 per share to accredited investors.  Under the terms of this financing, the Company also issued five-year fully vested warrants to purchase 139,625 shares of common stock at $5.00 per share to the same accredited investors.  Each share of Series H Preferred Stock is initially convertible into 100 shares of common stock at any time at the election of the holder.  The excess of the value of common stock into which the Series H Preferred Stock is convertible over the proceeds allocated to the Preferred Stock amounted to $270,908. Such amount represented a beneficial conversion feature discount and was immediately recognized as a deemed dividend to preferred stockholders.

 

     The following table sets forth selected balance sheet data as of March 31, 2003, on a pro forma basis, after giving effect to the May 2003 financing.

Statements in this Form 10-Q that are not descriptions of historical facts are forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those currently anticipated due to a number of factors, including those set forth herein and in the Company’s other SEC filings, and including, in particular, the availability of sufficient capital to finance the Company’s business plan on terms satisfactory to the Company, risks relating to uncertainties relating to dependence on strategic partners and third party relationships, management of rapid growth, dependence on online distribution, acquisitions, security risks, government regulations and competition.

Online tuition revenues increased 12.1% to $1,511,944 in the first quarter of 2003, compared to $1,348,887 for the same period in 2002. The increase is primarily due to an increase in revenue from higher education and government clients ($184,000 and $213,000, respectively), which was partially offset by a decrease in revenue from clients within the downsizing telecommunications industry ($233,000).

 

Online development and other revenues increased 101.8% to $191,376 in the first quarter of 2003, compared to $94,819 for the first quarter of 2002.  The increase is primarily due to an increase in course development and professional services orders.

Cost of Revenues

 

Cost of revenues increased 111.8% to $459,464 in the first quarter of 2003 as compared to $216,926 for the first quarter of 2002. The increase was primarily due to the sale of courses with relatively high associated royalties under one of the Company’s large customer contracts, which expires in June 2003.

 

Operating Expenses

 

Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expenses increased 0.9% to $731,761 in the first quarter of 2003 as compared to $725,167 for the first quarter in 2002. During the first quarter of 2003 and 2002, the Company contributed $176,845 and $113,029, respectively, to a marketing and development fund (the “Development Fund”) jointly administered by the Company and one of its larger customers as required pursuant to the terms of the Company’s contract with that customer.  The Development Fund’s primary goal is to fund marketing and development to grow online revenues for both that customer and derivatively for the Company in the form of course registration fees.  Amounts required to be contributed by the Company to the Development Fund are determined under the contract based on meeting or exceeding certain thresholds in course registrations on that customer’s virtual campus. These amounts are expensed as marketing costs in the same period as the Company recognizes revenue from such registrations.  Contributions to the Development Fund represented 27.1% and 26.9% of the recognized revenues attributable to that customer in the first quarter of 2003 and 2002, respectively.

 

Product Development. Product development expenses increased 15.2% to $723,950 in the first quarter of 2003 as compared to $628,261 for the first quarter of 2002.  The increase was primarily due to costs associated with two significant development projects underway in the first quarter of 2003.

 

General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses increased 11.3% to $464,682 in the first quarter of 2003 as compared to $417,451 for the first quarter of 2002. The increase was primarily due to costs associated with the hiring of the Company’s new Chief Executive Officer.

 

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense decreased 43.0% to $248,950 in the first quarter of 2003 as compared to $436,447 for the first quarter of 2002. The decrease was due primarily to the fact that many of the Company’s fixed and intangible assets have been fully depreciated and amortized, respectively.

 

     Stock-based Compensation.  Stock-based compensation expense for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002 consists of the fair value of stock options (using the Black-Sholes valuation method) issued to certain consultants to the Company.  Stock-based compensation expense for the three months ended March 31, 2003 also includes the fair value of stock issued as customary payment to  the Company’s non-employee directors for their participation in Board and Board Committee meetings.

 

Interest expense. Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002 primarily consists of debt discount and deferred debt offering costs amortization related to the remaining balance of the $925,000 of convertible promissory notes issued in December 2001.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of March 31, 2003, the Company had $1,342,839 in cash and cash equivalents. Cash utilized in operating activities was $123,958 for the three months ended March 31, 2003. Net cash used in operating activities for the same period in 2002 was $1,025,066. The decrease in cash utilized in operating activities is primarily due to a $500,000 customer prepayment received in the first quarter of 2003. Material customer prepayments are not expected to recur in foreseeable future quarters.

 

Net cash utilized in investing activities was $115,784 for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and $74,804 for the three months ended March 31, 2002. The use of cash for investing activities in both periods was primarily attributable to software development costs that were capitalized.

 

      Net cash provided by financing activities was $855,115 for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and $145,651 for the three months ended March 31, 2002.  In February 2003, the Company raised $400,000 through the issuance of 10,125 and 226 shares of Series G Preferred Stock at a purchase price of $39.50 per share to accredited investors and a placement agent, respectively.  Under the terms of this financing, the Company also issued five-year fully vested warrants to purchase 25,313 and 564 shares of common stock at $4.35 per share to the same accredited investors and placement agent, respectively.  In March 2003, the Company raised $500,000 through the issuance of 18,370 shares of Series G Preferred Stock at a purchase price of $27.22 per share to accredited investors.  Under the terms of this financing, the Company also issued five-year fully vested warrants to purchase 45,925 shares of common stock at $2.99 per share to the same accredited investors.

 

     In May 2003, the Company raised approximately $1,340,000 through the issuance of 5,585 shares of Series H Preferred Stock at a purchase price of $240.00 per share to accredited investors. Under the terms of this financing, the Company also issued five-year fully vested warrants to purchase 139,625 shares of common stock at $5.00 per share to the same accredited investors.

 

     The Company expects negative cash flow from operations to continue until the online revenue stream matures. The Company believes it has access to adequate resources to fund operations until operations reach cash flow positive.  However, in the event revenues do not meet anticipated levels or the Company is unable to raise additional funding to meet working capital requirements, the Company may need to further reduce operating expenses. If the Company is unable to raise additional funding to meet working capital requirements, it may be unable to maintain compliance with Nasdaq Small Cap Market listing requirements.  In addition to anticipated capital from operations, the Company believes it has available sources for debt or equity capital in amounts necessary to meet its cash needs through 2003.  However, such capital, if available, may not have terms favorable to the Company or its current stockholders.

 

     If the Company does not address its funding needs, it will be materially adversely affected. The Company’s future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including, but not limited to, acceptance of and demand for its products and services, maintenance and renewal of customer contracts, customer demands for technology upgrades, the types of arrangements that the Company may enter into with customers and resellers, and the extent to which the Company invests in new technology and research and development projects.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

 

     In June 2002, a former employee (separated in June 1998) filed suit against the Company in Dallas County, Texas. The suit alleges damages in the following amounts: $56,250 from an allegedly earned unpaid bonus, $231,250 based on an alleged change of control in the Company and $360,000 for the company’s alleged failure to allow him to exercise stock options. After thorough investigations, the Company has rejected this former employee’s claims several times in the past and the Company continues to believe these claims are without merit and plans to vigorously defend against them. The case was subject to mediation in December 2002, which failed to produce a settlement. The case is scheduled for trial in September 2003.  The plaintiff filed a motion for summary judgment on the issue of the unpaid bonus.  The court has preliminarily ruled that the former employee is entitled to a payment of $56,250 for his bonus claim. Although the Court’s ruling is preliminary, the Company has accrued for it. The Company is currently negotiating a full settlement with the former employee The Company at this time cannot provide a definitive estimate of legal fees required for the case; however they may become material as the case progresses. The Company cannot estimate at this time the amount or probability of additional liabilities to be incurred, if any. Accordingly, no additional amounts have been accrued in the financial statements.

 

      In March 2003, the Montgomery County, Maryland Circuit Court issued an order for VCampus to pay its landlord in Rockville, Maryland $93,453 of back rent due and all future rents ($499,535) less any rents received by the landlord from any re-leasing of the premises. The order calls for the future rent amount to be paid monthly at a rate of $13,433 through the end of the lease term in 2005. The Company plans to contest the liability for future rents beyond December 2003 ($323,231) per the lease terms. The liability for back rents and rents through December 2003 and attorney’s fees is reflected on the Company’s balance sheet. The Company cannot provide a definitive estimate of the probability of the liability to be incurred, if any, for rent beyond December 2003. Accordingly, no amounts have been accrued in the financial statements for this potential liability.
