1. Accounting Policies
Interim Financial Information
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of USA
Technologies, Inc. (the "Company") have been prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and
with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles
for complete financial statements and therefore should be read in conjunction
with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended June 30,
2004. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary,
consisting of normal recurring adjustments, have been included. Operating
results for the three-month and nine-month periods ended March 31, 2005 are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending
June 30, 2005. The balance sheet at June 30, 2004 has been derived from the
audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles
for complete financial statements.
For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto
included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended June
30, 2004.
Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Stitch Networks Corporation ("Stitch").
All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S.
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and
accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Reclassification
Certain amounts in the prior period financial statements have been reclassified
to conform to the current period presentation.
Inventory
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out basis) or market
and consists of finished goods and packaging materials.

1. Accounting Policies (Continued)
Loans Receivable
The Company offers extended payment terms to certain customers for equipment
sales. Loans receivable are net of an allowance for credit losses. The Company
does not require collateral or other security to support credit sales, but
provides an allowance for credit losses based on historical experience and
specifically identified risks. Loans receivable are carried at fair value and
charged off against the allowance for credit losses when management determines
that recovery is unlikely and the Company ceases collection efforts. The Company
recognizes a portion of the loan payments as interest income based on the
effective interest rate method in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of
Operations.
Income Taxes
No provision for income taxes has been made in either the three or nine months
ended March 31, 2005 and 2004 given the Company's losses in 2004 and 2003 and
available net operating loss carryforwards. A benefit has not been recorded as
the realization of the net operating losses is not assured and the timing in
which the Company can utilize its net operating loss carryforwards in any year
or in total may be limited by provisions of the Internal Revenue Code regarding
changes in ownership of corporations.
Loss Per Common Share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing income (loss) applicable to
common shares by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period.
Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing income (loss) applicable to
common shares by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period
plus the dilutive effect (unless such effect is anti-dilutive) of equity
instruments. No exercise of stock options, purchase rights, stock purchase
warrants, or the conversion of senior notes, debentures, preferred stock, or
cumulative preferred dividends was assumed during the periods presented because
the assumed exercise of these securities would be anti-dilutive.

1. Accounting Policies (Continued)
Accounting For Stock Options
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation" ("FAS 123"), as amended by Financial Accounting Standards No. 148,
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure", provides
companies with a choice to follow the provisions of FAS 123 in determination of
stock-based compensation expense or to continue with the provisions of APB No.
25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees and Related Interpretations in
Accounting for Stock-Compensation Plans" ("APB 25") and the related FASB
Interpretation No. 44. The Company has elected to follow the provisions of APB
25. Under APB 25, if the exercise price of the Company's stock options granted
to employees and directors equals or exceeds the market price of the underlying
Common Stock on the date of grant, no compensation expense is recognized. All
stock options granted by the Company have been at prices equal to the market
price of the Company's Common Stock on the date of grant. Under FAS 123, the
fair value of stock options is estimated at the date of grant using an option
pricing model such as Black-Scholes and the value determined is amortized to
expense over the option vesting period.
There were no stock options granted during the nine months ended March 31, 2005.
The pro-forma disclosures required by FAS 148 have not been included as the
pro-forma compensation expense related to the vesting of options during the nine
months ended March 31, 2005 was not considered to be material and there was no
pro-forma compensation expense during the nine months ended March 31, 2004.
In December 2004, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 123(R), "Share-Based Payment" ("FAS 123(R)"), which establishes standards
for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods
or services. This standard requires a public entity to measure the cost of
employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based
on the grant-date fair value of the award. This eliminates the alternative to
account for such awards using the intrinsic method currently allowable under APB
25. FAS 123(R) will be effective for the Company for the interim reporting
period beginning on July 1, 2005. The Company believes FAS 123(R) will not have
a material impact on the Company's financial statements.

2. Acquisition of Bayview Technology Group, LLC ("Bayview")
On July 11, 2003, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of
Bayview. The initial acquisition cost was $10,030,894, which principally was
comprised of the issuance of 20,000,000 shares of restricted Common Stock valued
at $9,200,000 and a cash payment of $631,247. The value of the 20,000,000 shares
of Common Stock was determined based on the average market price of the
Company's Common Stock over the two-day period before and after the definitive
agreement date of July 11, 2003. The purchase price also included acquisition
related costs of $199,647.
Of the 20,000,000 shares issued to Bayview, 700,000 shares were placed into an
escrow account to be issued to one owner of Bayview if certain Bayview stock
options were exercised. This agreement called for these shares to be returned to
the Company if the Bayview stock options were not exercised. During the
three-month period ended September 30, 2004, the Company determined that the
Bayview stock options would not be exercised and the shares previously issued
into escrow would be cancelled. Therefore, the Company decreased the purchase
price by $322,000 due to the return and cancellation of the 700,000 shares held
in escrow. The decrease in the purchase price resulted in a reduction of
goodwill and shareholders' equity of $322,000 in the three months ended
September 30, 2004.
The following table summarizes the final purchase price allocation to reflect
the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of
acquisition.
Current assets $ 7,628
Property and equipment 244,704
Intangible assets 9,449,000
Goodwill 7,562
----------
Total assets acquired $9,708,894
==========
The acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method and, accordingly,
the results of operations of Bayview have been included in the accompanying
consolidated statements of operations since the date of acquisition. Results of
operations of the Company for three and nine months ended March 31, 2004 would
not have been significantly different than reported had the acquisition taken
place July 1, 2003 as the acquisition occurred on July 11, 2003.

3. Senior Notes
As of March 31, 2005, the outstanding balance of Senior Notes was $9,071,559.
This is comprised of notes with a face amount of $12,402,025 less unamortized
debt discount and other issuance costs of $3,330,466.
Debt discount and other issuance costs associated with the Senior Notes are
amortized to interest expense over the remaining life of the Senior Notes. Upon
conversion of Senior Notes into Common Stock, unamortized costs relating to the
notes converted are charged to interest expense. Total charges to interest for
amortization of debt discount and other issuance costs were $541,590 and
$1,237,345 for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2005, respectively and
$450,708 and $2,642,123 for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2004.
During the nine months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, Senior Notes totaling
$468,452 and $2,148,630, respectively, were converted into 4,431,393 and
10,743,154 shares, respectively, of the Company's Common Stock.
Certain Senior Notes outstanding, which matured on December 31, 2004, had an
aggregate face amount of $451,152 and were convertible into shares of Common
Stock at $0.40 per share. During January 2005, the Company repaid $131,152 of
these Senior Notes and agreed with the holders of the remaining $320,000 of
these notes to extend the maturity date to June 30, 2005. In exchange for
extending the maturity date, the Company authorized a reduction of the
conversion price to $0.10. The maturity date was further extended to June 30,
2006 in April 2005, with no other terms being modified.
On November 3, 2004, the Company authorized the issuance of up to $2,500,000 of
Senior Notes convertible into shares of Common Stock at $0.10 per share and
maturing on June 30, 2007 (the "2004-B Senior Notes"). Interest is payable
quarterly at a rate of 10% per annum. Through the last day of the offering on
February 14, 2005, the Company received $1,550,790 in gross proceeds from sales
of the 2004-B Senior Notes and 1,770,635 shares underlying the warrants were
cancelled. As the Company's share price on the day of issuance of each of these
Senior Notes was greater than the conversion price of $0.10, the Company
recorded the intrinsic value of this beneficial conversion feature totaling
$518,645 as additional debt discount, which is being amortized to interest
expense through the maturity date of these Senior Notes.
10
3. Senior Notes (Continued)
On February 23, 2005, the Company authorized the issuance of up to $1,755,000 of
Senior Notes, due April 30, 2005 to accredited investors (the "2005-B Senior
Notes") with interest payable at a rate of 10% per annum. In connection with
this offering, the Company paid a due diligence fee of $27,000 to an accredited
investor. Through March 31, 2005 the Company received $1,755,000 in gross
proceeds from the 2005-B Senior Note offering. On March 22, 2005, the Company
authorized an offer whereby the holders of the 2005-B Senior Notes had the right
through April 30, 2005 to exchange their 2005-B Senior Notes for Senior Notes
convertible into shares of Common Stock at $.10 per share maturing on December
31, 2010 ("2010 Senior Notes"). Interest on the 2010 Senior Notes is payable
quarterly at 10% per annum. During March 2005, all of the 2005-B Senior Notes
were exchanged for 2010 Senior Notes. As the Company's share price on the day of
issuance of each of these Senior Notes was greater than the conversion price of
$0.10, the Company recorded the intrinsic value of this beneficial conversion
feature totaling $1,314,200 as additional debt discount, which is being
amortized to interest expense through the maturity date of these Senior Notes.
On March 22, 2005, the Company authorized an offer expiring on April 30, 2005 to
the holders of certain Senior Notes whereby those holders may elect to extend
the maturity date of their Senior Notes (the "Senior Note Extension Offer").
Holders of Senior Notes scheduled to mature on December 31, 2005 may extend
their maturity to December 31, 2008 and holders of Senior Notes scheduled to
mature on December 31, 2006 may elect to extend their maturity to December 31,
2009. Principal on Senior Notes extended will not be prepaid prior to April 1,
2006. As of March 31, 2005, the outstanding face amount of each of these series
of Senior Notes was approximately $3,000,000, convertible into Common Stock at
$.20 per share and has interest payable at 12% per annum. Through March 31,
2005, the maturity date for none of these notes was extended.
4. Common Stock
On August 6, 2004, the Company entered into a Common Stock purchase agreement
(the "Common Stock Agreement") with an accredited investor to purchase shares of
the Company's Common Stock, provided that the aggregate purchase price does not
exceed $7,500,000. Under the Common Stock Agreement, the Company has the right
at any time to require the investor to purchase Common Stock from the Company at
the lower of: (i) $0.30 per share; or (ii) 90% of the closing bid price per
share on the date prior to the date of the delivery by the Company to the
investor of notice of his obligation to purchase. The Company can require the
investor to purchase shares under the Common Stock Agreement only if the shares
have been registered by the Company for resale under the Act. Such shares were
registered effective August 13, 2004. Additionally, the shares are only
available for purchase for a period of one year from the date the shares are
registered under the Act. During any calendar month, the investor cannot be
required by the Company to purchase Common Stock for an aggregate purchase price
in excess of $700,000. The Company has registered 35,000,000 shares for resale
by the investor and the Company has the right in the future, if necessary, to
register additional shares in order to ensure that a sufficient number of shares
are available for purchase by the investor. The Company paid the investor a due
diligence fee of $45,000 in connection with this transaction.
11
4. Common Stock (Continued)
During the nine-month period ended March 31, 2005, the Company issued 34,950,470
shares of Common Stock under the Common Stock Agreement for total gross proceeds
of $3,533,620. In addition to the due diligence fee, the Company incurred
$107,624 of other stock issuance costs during the nine months ended March 31,
2005.
On October 29, 2004, the Board of Directors approved the 2004-B Stock
Compensation Plan to allow up to 500,000 shares of Common Stock to be available
for issuance to future or current employees, directors or consultants of the
Company.
On March 17, 2005, the Company's shareholders approved an increase in the number
of authorized shares of Common Stock from 475,000,000 to 560,000,000.
On March 22, 2005, the Company authorized the issuance of up to 23,333,334
shares of Common Stock at $.15 per share to accredited investors through April
15, 2005 (the "2005-D Private Placement Offering"). For shares purchased under
the offering, the investors also received warrants to purchase an equal number
of shares of Common Stock exercisable at $.15 per share at any time prior to
December 31, 2005. As of March 31, 2005, the Company issued 10,000,000 shares of
Common Stock under the 2005-D Private Placement Offering, for total gross
proceeds of $1,500,000.
5. Common Stock Warrants
Prior to June 30, 2004, the Company issued warrants to purchase approximately
3,700,000 shares of Common Stock to holders of the Senior Notes who elected to
receive quarterly interest on their Notes in shares of Common Stock, in lieu of
a cash payment of interest ("Original Interest Warrants"). These warrants were
exercisable at $0.20 per share through August 30, 2004. In June 2004, the
Company issued additional warrants to the Senior Note holders who elected to
receive interest in shares of Common Stock ("Additional Interest Warrants"). One
additional warrant was issued for each warrant previously issued with an
exercise price of $0.20 per share through December 31, 2004.
The Company reduced the exercise price of the Original Interest Warrants to
$0.15 per share and extended their expiration through October 29, 2004. In
addition, for each Original Interest Warrant exercised through October 4, 2004,
the expiration date of one Additional Interest Warrant was extended to June 30,
2005 from December 31, 2004, and the exercise price was reduced to $0.15 per
share through June 30, 2005. The Company also reduced the exercise price of the
Additional Interest Warrants to $0.15 per share through November 30, 2004 and
then retroactively to $0.10 per share through December 31, 2004. Investors who
had previously exercised Original Interest Warrants and Additional Interest
Warrants at $0.15 per share were refunded the equivalent of $0.05 per share in
recognition of the reduction of the exercise price to $0.10 per share that
occurred after the warrants were exercised. Such refunds amounted to $40,971.
During the six-month period ended December 31, 2004, Original Interest Warrants
and Additional Interest Warrants were exercised to purchase 807,494 shares of
Common Stock. Such exercises generated net proceeds of approximately $75,000,
after considering the above-mentioned refund.
12
5. Common Stock Warrants (Continued)
As of October 25, 2004, the Company reduced the exercise price of the Common
Stock warrants issued as part of the 2004-A Private Placement Offering to $0.10
per share, from $0.20 per share, through November 30, 2004. On December 13,
2004, the exercise price of $0.10 per share was retroactively extended to
December 31, 2004. During the six-month period ended December 31, 2004, the
Company received $765,833 upon the exercise of 7,658,334 of these warrants at an
exercise price of $0.10 per share.
As of March 31, 2005, there were 19,061,294 Common Stock warrants outstanding,
all of which were exercisable at exercise prices ranging from $0.07 to $1.25 per
share.
6. Contingencies
Various legal actions and claims occurring in the normal course of business are
pending or may be instituted or asserted in the future against the Company. The
Company does not believe that the resolution of these matters will have a
material effect on the financial position or results of operations of the
Company.
In February 2005, a Complaint was filed against the Company in the State Court
of Fulton County, Georgia, captioned Swartz Private Equity, L.L.C. vs. USA
Technologies, Inc. (File No. 2005 VS 0777772D). The Complaint alleges that the
Company breached various agreements entered into with Swartz Private Equity, LLC
in August and September 2000 in connection with the so-called equity line of
credit provided by Swartz to the Company. The Complaint alleges, among other
things, that the Company failed to issue common stock purchase warrants to
Swartz as required, and the Company did not permit the exercise by Swartz of
certain warrants already held by Swartz. The Complaint also alleges that the
Company breached certain rights of first refusal granted to Swartz to purchase
future securities offerings. The Complaint requests money damages of $4,350,381
representing the alleged value of the warrants currently held by or claimed to
be due to Swartz, money damages of $196,953 representing a termination fee
allegedly due in connection with the termination of the agreements, and
unspecified money damages relating to the alleged breach of the rights of first
refusal. The Complaint was served on the Company on March 10, 2005, and the
Company has not yet filed any motions in connection with or responses to the
Complaint. The Company intends to vigorously defend this action. At the present
time, the Company is unable to estimate the possible range of damages that the
Company might incur should this action be resolved against the Company.
7. Subsequent Events
From April 1 through the last day of the 2005-D Private Placement Offering on
April 13, 2005, the Company issued an additional 13,333,334 shares of Common
Stock for additional gross proceeds of $2,000,000 and issued warrants to
purchase a like number of shares of Common Stock. None of the warrants issued in
conjunction with the 2005-D Private Placement Offering have been exercised as of
May 4, 2005.
13
7. Subsequent Events (Continued)
From April 1 through the last day of the Senior Note Extension Offer on April
30, 2005, there were extensions for $1,874,244 of Senior Notes maturing December
31, 2005 to December 31, 2008 and extensions for $1,384,000 of Senior Notes
maturing December 31, 2006 to December 31, 2009. As such, $1,511,326 of Senior
Notes, net, has been reclassified from current to long-term liabilities in the
accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet.
On April 4, 2005, the Company entered into a new Common Stock Purchase Agreement
("2005 Common Stock Agreement") with the same accredited investor as the Common
Stock Agreement entered into on August 4, 2004. Pursuant to the 2005 Common
Stock Agreement, the investor agreed to purchase shares of the Company's Common
Stock, provided that the aggregate purchase price does not exceed $10,000,000.
Under the 2005 Common Stock Agreement, the Company has the right at any time to
require the investor to purchase Common Stock from the Company at the lower of:
(i) $0.30 per share; or (ii) 90% of the closing bid price per share on the date
prior to the date of the delivery by the Company to the investor of notice of
his obligation to purchase. The Company can require the investor to purchase
shares under the Common Stock Agreement only if the shares have been registered
by the Company for resale under the Act. During any calendar month, the investor
cannot be required by the Company to purchase Common Stock for an aggregate
purchase price in excess of $800,000. Although the Company has filed a
registration statement that includes 20,000,000 shares of Common Stock related
to the 2005 Common Stock Agreement for resale by the investor, the Company has
the right in the future, if necessary, to register additional shares in order to
ensure that a sufficient number of shares are available for purchase by the
investor. The Company issued 500,000 shares of Common Stock to the investor as a
due diligence/commitment fee in connection with the 2005 Common Stock Agreement.
The 2005 Common Stock Agreement terminates August 11, 2007. Through May 4, 2005
no proceeds have been received under the 2005 Common Stock Agreement.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
Forward Looking Statements
This Form 10-Q contains certain forward looking statements regarding, among
other things, the anticipated financial and operating results of the Company.
For this purpose, forward looking statements are any statements contained herein
that are not statements of historical fact and include, but are not limited to,
those preceded by or that include the words, "believes," "expects,"
"anticipates," or similar expressions. Those statements are subject to known and
unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause the actual
results to differ materially from those contemplated by the statements. The
forward looking information is based on various factors and was derived using
numerous assumptions. Important factors that could cause the Company's actual
results to differ materially from those projected, include, for example (i) the
ability of the Company to generate sufficient sales to generate operating
profits, or to sell products at a profit, (ii) the ability of the Company to
raise funds in the future through sales of securities, including but not limited
to the exercise of outstanding options and warrants, (iii) whether the Company
is able to enter into binding agreements with third parties to assist in product
or network development, (iv) the ability of the Company to commercialize its
developmental products including the e-Port(TM), or if actually commercialized,
to obtain commercial acceptance thereof, (v) the ability of the Company to
compete with its competitors to obtain market share, (vi) the ability of the
Company to obtain sufficient funds through operations or otherwise to repay its
debt obligations, including but not limited to Senior Notes, or to fund
development and marketing of its products (vii) the ability of the Company to
obtain approval of its pending patent applications, (viii) the ability of the
Company to satisfy its trade obligations included in accounts payable and
accrued liabilities, or (ix) the ability of the Company to predict or estimate
its future quarterly or annual revenues given the developing and unpredictable
market for its products and the lack of established revenues. Although the
Company believes that the forward looking statements contained herein are
reasonable, it can give no assurance that the Company's expectations will be
met.
Results of Operations
Three months ended March 31, 2005
Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2005 were $1,122,330 compared to
$1,352,689 for the corresponding three-month period in the previous fiscal year.
This $230,359 or 17% decrease was primarily due to a decrease in equipment
sales. The $225,495 decrease in equipment sales was primarily due to a decrease
in sales of approximately $244,000 of energy conservation equipment and a
decrease of approximately $129,000 in intelligent vending equipment sales,
offset by an increase of approximately $159,000 in business center equipment
sales. License and transaction fees increased by $6,060 primarily due to a
increase in our intelligent vending fees of approximately $101,000, an increase
in our business center fees of approximately $3,000, an increase in our laundry
fees of approximately $3,000 and an increase in our kiosk fees by approximately
$9,000, offset by a decrease of approximately $111,000 in fees due to the
termination of the Kodak Vending Placement Agreement.
15
As previously disclosed, the Company and PepsiCo, Inc ("Pepsi") have entered
into a one-year contract pursuant to which the Company has agreed to supply its
energy miser products. Under the contract, Pepsi would purchase our vending
miser products for delivery to its own customer, a Fortune 50 major retailer,
which has thousands of locations in the United States and internationally. The
Company anticipates that it will receive a requirements forecast and an initial
purchase order from Pepsi and that shipments to Pepsi would commence, during the
fourth quarter of our current fiscal year. The Company can make no assurances as
to how many internal vending misers would ultimately be purchased by Pepsi under
the contract.
Due to a number of factors, including but not limited to the Pepsi agreement,
the five year contract with the General Services Administration of the Federal
Government, and the current upward spiraling of energy costs, the Company is
anticipating a significant increase in demand for our energy miser products and
believes sales of its energy miser product line will be the single largest
contributor to its sales revenues during fiscal year 2006. The Company can make
no assurances as to how many internal vending misers ultimately will be sold
during fiscal year 2006.
Cost of sales for the three-month period consisted of equipment costs of
approximately $397,000 and network and transaction related costs of
approximately $158,000. The decrease in cost of sales of $515,332 or 48% over
the prior year period was due to the fact that software development costs were
fully amortized as of June 30, 2004, resulting in a decrease of approximately
$333,000, a decrease in equipment costs of approximately $151,000 and a decrease
in network and transaction related costs of approximately $31,000. The decrease
in equipment costs was primarily due to the decrease in equipment sales.
Gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2005 was $566,720, or
approximately 50% of revenues, compared to gross profit of $281,747, or 21% of
revenues, for the corresponding three-month period in the previous fiscal year.
This increase is primarily due to the lack of amortization of software
development costs ($332,887) during the third quarter of fiscal year 2005 as
described above. This is the largest gross profit margin achieved by the Company
in the last 12 consecutive fiscal quarters. Based on anticipations reductions in
manufacturing costs due to possible future offshore manufacturing and improved
product design, in conjunction with an anticipated increase in sales of the
higher-margin energy miser products, the Company believes that a 50% profit
margin should be possible during the next fiscal quarter and during fiscal year
2006.
General and administrative expense of $1,547,866 decreased by $266,571 or 15%
primarily due to a decrease in consulting expense as a result of decreasing the
use of certain consultants by replacing them with full-time employees at a more
affordable rate.
Compensation expense of $1,469,333 increased by $248,343 or 20% primarily due to
an increase in bonus expense of approximately $37,000 and an increase in
salaries and benefits expense of approximately $211,000, due to an increase in
the number of employees, as compared to the prior period.
Interest expense increased by $72,301 or 9% due to an increase in non-cash
interest amortization on the debt discount for new Senior Note issuances in the
third quarter of fiscal year 2005.
During March of the previous fiscal year, the Company sold 969,091 shares of its
Jubilee investment for net proceeds of $1,075,891, of which $762,130 was
received subsequent to March 31, 2004 and was reflected as an other receivable
as of that date, and realized a gain of $572,119 from the sale of these shares.
There was no such comparable charge in the period ended March 31, 2005.
16
The three-month period ended March 31, 2005 resulted in a net loss of $3,702,049
(approximately $1.0 million of non-cash charges) compared to a net loss of
$3,383,570 (approximately $1.0 million of non-cash charges) for the three-month
period ended March 31, 2004.
Nine months ended March 31, 2005
Revenues for the nine months ended March 31, 2005 were $3,290,356 compared to
$4,947,882 for the corresponding nine-month period in the previous fiscal year.
This $1,657,526 or 33% decrease was primarily due to a decrease in equipment
sales, a one-time payment from Unilever that only occurred in the prior fiscal
year and the termination of the Kodak Vending Placement Agreement. The
$1,290,256 decrease in equipment sales was primarily due to a decrease in sales
of approximately $1,276,000 of energy conservation equipment and a decrease of
approximately $305,000 in intelligent vending equipment sales, offset by an
increase of approximately $314,000 in business center equipment sales. Of the
$1,276,000 decrease in energy conservation equipment sales, approximately
$886,000 relates to two large customer orders of energy Miser(TM) products
during the nine-month period ended March 31, 2004. There was only one equipment
sale of this magnitude in the nine-month period of the current fiscal year.
License and transaction fees decreased by approximately $61,000 primarily due to
a decrease of approximately $364,000 in fees related to the termination of the
Kodak agreement and a decrease of approximately $19,000 in fees from our
business centers, offset by an increase in our intelligent vending fees of
approximately $303,000. Product sales and other decreased by $304,476 due to the
termination of the Kodak vending placement agreement and the one-time payment of
$200,000 related to the Strategic Alliance Agreement with Unilever in the
corresponding period of the prior fiscal year.
Cost of sales for the period consisted of equipment costs of approximately
$1,466,000 and network and transaction related costs of approximately $785,000.
The decrease in cost of sales of $986,126 or 30% over the prior year period was
primarily due to the fact that software development costs were fully amortized
as of June 30, 2004, resulting in a decrease of approximately $999,000.
Gross profit for the nine months ended March 31, 2005 was $1,039,958, compared
to gross profit of $1,711,358 for the corresponding nine-month period in the
previous fiscal year. This 39% decrease is due to the combined effect of the
termination of the Kodak Vending Placement Agreement, the decrease in energy and
intelligent vending equipment sales and the one-time Unilever payment in the
prior period, offset by the lack of amortization of software developments costs
($999,000) during fiscal year 2005.
General and administrative expense of $4,740,060 decreased by $356,387 or 7%
primarily due to a decrease in consulting expense as a result of decreasing the
use of certain consultants by replacing them with full-time employees at a more
affordable rate.
Compensation expense of $4,128,412 decreased by $4,535,788 or 52% primarily due
to the issuance of 10,500,000 shares of Common Stock valued at $0.44 per share
to the Company's Chief Executive Officer in connection with the amendment of his
employment agreement during the corresponding period in the prior fiscal year.
This was a one-time, non-cash payment valued at $4,620,000. Compensation expense
further decreased by approximately $678,000 due to a decrease in bonus expense,
excluding the above-mentioned one-time non-cash payment,, offset by an increase
in salaries and benefits expense of approximately $762,000 due to an increase in
the number of employees as compared to the prior period.
During the nine-month period of the prior fiscal year, the Company incurred a
charge of $318,915 related to the modification of debt terms for certain 2003
and 2004 Senior Notes. This charge represents the unamortized debt discount that
remained on the Senior Notes that were scheduled to mature in December 2003 and
2004, and whose terms were substantially modified when the note holders agreed
to extend the maturity date of their notes in exchange for a reduction in the
conversion rate on the note. There was no such comparable charge in the period
ended March 31, 2005.
17
During the nine-month period of the prior fiscal year, the Company recorded a
one-time gain of $509,244 relating to the termination of the Kodak Vending
Placement Agreement. This gain was comprised of the payment from Kodak of
approximately $675,000 plus the cancellation of Stitch Network's obligation to
the supplier of the vending machines of approximately $124,000 reduced by a
write down of the carrying value of vending machines of approximately $283,000
to their net realizable value of $300 per vending machine.
Interest expense decreased by $1,805,834 or 45% due to a decrease in non-cash
charges for accelerated interest on the unamortized debt discount and other
issuance costs on the Senior Notes that were converted into Common Stock during
the corresponding nine months of the prior fiscal year. Conversions of Senior
Notes totaled $2,418,630 during the nine-month period ended March 31, 2004
whereas only $468,452 of Senior Notes were converted during the corresponding
period of the current fiscal year.
During the nine months ended March 31, 2004, the Company sold 1,669,091 shares
of its Jubilee investment for net proceeds of $1,471,142, resulting in a gain of
$603,480. Proceeds of $762,130 were received subsequent to March 31, 2004 and
are reflected as an other receivable as of that date. There was no such
comparable charge in the nine-month period ended March 31, 2005.
The nine-month period ended March 31, 2005 resulted in a net loss of $11,147,691
(approximately $2.5 million of non-cash charges) compared to a net loss of
$16,424,278 (approximately $9.5 million of non-cash charges) for the nine-month
period ended March 31, 2004.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
For the nine months ended March 31, 2005, net cash of $8,836,649 was used by
operating activities, primarily due to the net loss of $11,147,691 offset by
non-cash charges aggregating to $2,509,854 for transactions involving the
issuance of Common Stock for services, depreciation and amortization of assets,
and amortization of debt discount. In addition, the Company's net operating
assets increased by $198,812 primarily due to decreases in accrued expenses. The
Company's working capital decreased during the nine months ended March 31, 2005
due primarily to cash utilized to fund operations and a portion of the long-term
Senior Notes becoming current.
Proceeds from financing activities for the nine months ended March 31, 2005
provided funds to support cash used in operating and investing activities. Net
proceeds of $9,217,949 were realized from the sale of Common Stock ($4,880,996),
the exercise of Common Stock Warrants ($1,091,922), the collection of Common
Stock subscriptions receivable ($300,000), and the issuance of Senior Notes
($3,305,790), offset by cash used to repay long-term debt ($229,607) and Senior
Notes ($131,152).
The Company has incurred losses since inception. Cumulative losses through March
31, 2005 amounted to approximately $109,000,000. The Company has raised capital
through equity and debt offerings to fund operations.
During the year ended June 30, 2004, cash used in operating activities was
approximately $1,050,000 per month. These cash flows were impacted by working
capital increases that were disproportionate to the increase in revenues. During
the first nine months of fiscal year 2005, the Company used approximately
$982,000 cash per month in operating activities. For the three months ended
March 31, 2005, cash used in operating activities was approximately $833,000 per
month. Using the first three quarters of the fiscal year as a basis for
estimating cash requirements for the year ending June 30, 2005 (which assumes a
static level of revenues as compared to the prior fiscal year), cash
requirements for the fiscal year 2005, including requirements for capital
expenditures and repayments of long-term debt, would be approximately
$12,100,000.
18
As of March 31, 2005, the Company had approximately $3,188,000 of cash and cash
equivalents on hand. Subsequent to March 31, 2005 and through the date hereof,
the Company has received funds from the issuance of an additional 13,333,334
shares of Common Stock for additional gross proceeds of $2,000,000.
On April 4, 2005, the Company and Steve Illes entered into the 2005 Common Stock
Agreement. See Note 7 to Consolidated Financial Statements. Through the date
hereof no proceeds have been received under the 2005 Common Stock Agreement.
As of the date hereof, additional capital available from funding sources
currently in place include the 2005 Common Stock Agreement ($3,060,000 based on
shares being registered related to the Agreement and a share price of $.17) and
future exercises of warrants that are "in the money" with exercise prices below
$.17 per share that would yield approximately $4,039,000.
To reduce capital required in future periods, holders of Senior Notes scheduled
to mature on December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2006 were offered the
opportunity through April 30, 2005 to extend the maturity date of their Senior
Notes; December 31, 2008 for the Senior Notes maturing December 31, 2005 and
December 31, 2009 for the Senior Notes maturing December 31, 2006. The principal
for each of these series of Senior Notes was approximately $3,000,000 as of
March 31, 2005. Subsequent to March 31, 2005, the holders of the Senior Notes
elected to extend $1,874,244 of Senior Notes maturing December 31, 2005 to
December 31, 2008, and $1,384,000 of Senior Notes maturing December 31, 2006 to
December 31, 2009.
Cash on hand as of March 31, 2005 and the above-mentioned sources of capital
will provide sufficient funds to support operating activities through the fiscal
year ending June 30, 2005 and the Company believes that these sources should
provide sufficient funds thereafter through December 31, 2005, including the
repayment of approximately $1,100,000 of Senior Notes scheduled to mature
December 31, 2005. Subsequent to December 31, 2005, and assuming that there
would be no material increase in revenues, the Company anticipates meeting its
liquidity needs through a combination of issuing debt securities, available
equity securities, additional equity securities, or reduction of its expenses.
If the Company is required to issue additional equity securities, the Company
would be required to increase the number of its authorized shares, as the number
of issued and outstanding shares on a fully diluted basis as of date hereof is
only slightly less than the number of authorized shares (560,000,000).
19
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
The Company's exposure to market risks for interest rate changes is not
significant. Interest rates on its Senior Notes and long-term debt are generally
fixed and its investments in cash equivalents and other securities are not
significant. Market risks related to fluctuations of foreign currencies are not
significant and the Company has no derivative financial instruments.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.
The principal executive officer and principal financial officer have evaluated
