STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION |
|
|
|
In 2002, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 148,
Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation Transition and Disclosure. This standard provides
alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of
accounting for stock-based employee compensation. Additionally, the standard also requires prominent
disclosures in |
8
the Companys financial statements about the method of accounting used for
stock-based employee compensation, and the effect of the method used when reporting financial
results.
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with SFAS No. 123,
Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. As permitted by SFAS No. 123, the Company
continues to measure compensation for such plans using the intrinsic value based method of
accounting, prescribed by Accounting Principles Board (APB), Opinion No. 25, Accounting for
Stock Issued to Employees. Had compensation cost for the Companys stock-based compensation
plans been determined based on the fair value at the grant dates for awards consistent with
the method of SFAS No. 123, the Companys net income (loss) and net income (loss) per common
share would have been adjusted to the pro forma amounts indicated below:

NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE (EPS) |
|
|
|
SFAS 128 Earnings Per Share requires the Company to calculate net income (loss) per share
based on basic and diluted net income (loss) per share, as defined. Basic EPS excludes
dilution and is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of
shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could
occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into
common stock. The dilutive effect of outstanding options issued by the Company are reflected
in diluted EPS using the treasury stock method. Under the treasury stock method, options
will only have a dilutive effect when the average market price of common stock during the
period exceeds the exercise price of the options. |

INDEMNIFICATION OF CUSTOMERS |
|
|
|
Our agreements with customers generally require us to indemnify the customer against claims
that our software infringes third party patent, copyright, trademark or other proprietary
rights. Such indemnification obligations are generally limited in a variety of
industry-standard respects, including our right to replace an infringing product. As of
September 30, 2005 we had not experienced any material losses related to these
indemnification obligations and no material claims with respect thereto were outstanding. We
do not expect significant claims related to these indemnification obligations, and
consequently, we have not established any related reserves. |

Overview
Sales for the Companys third quarter ended September 30, 2005 of $2,669,000 compared with sales of
$2,782,000 for the third quarter ended September 30, 2004. For the nine months ended September 30,
2005 sales of $7,957,000 decreased 1% from sales of $8,023,000 for the first nine months of 2004.
Our net loss incurred for the three months ended September 30, 2005 of $48,000, or $0.01 per share,
compared with net loss of $34,000, or $0.00 per share, for the same three months of 2004. For the
nine months ended September 30, 2005 the net income of $116,000, or $0.01 per diluted share,
represents an improvement of $646,000 in net income when compared with the net loss of $530,000, or
$0.06 per share, incurred for the same nine month period of 2004.
The improvement in net income results from a 9% reduction in operating expenses for the first nine
months of 2005, or approximately $700,000, as compared with the same period a year ago. The
decrease in operating expenses is a result of lower employment levels in 2005 versus 2004, which
has reduced salary, benefit, travel and facility expenses significantly.
Orders booked for the quarter ended September 30, 2005 of $2,856,000 increased 5% from orders
booked for the second quarter of 2005, and includes a 15% increase in orders for the Companys
VeraSMART enterprise level product from the prior quarter. Major VeraSMART orders were received
during the third quarter from North Carolina Baptist Hospital, NCS Pearson, CVS, American
Intercontinental, and the California County of Ventura.
For the quarter ended September 30, 2005 we generated a positive cash flow of $176,000, and the
September 30, 2005 cash position of $1,257,000 is $446,000, or 51% higher than the cash position at
September 30, 2004.
The increase in cash was primarily a result of increases in deferred revenues related to
maintenance contracts generated from sales of the eCAS product.
Sales
For the three months ended September 30, 2005 sales derived from our enterprise product offerings
which include VeraSMART in addition to the ongoing maintenance revenue stream from Quantum,
VeraSMARTs
13
predecessor product, decreased 2% from the same quarter of 2004. For the nine months ended
September 30, 2005 enterprise level sales have increased 4% from the prior year and account for 34%
of total sales revenues. On September 26, we announced the general availability of VeraSMART 4.0,
which introduces SMART Work Order, a module that provides flexible workflow and helpdesk management
tools. With this latest release the VeraSMART platform now includes integrated modules for
Directory, Allocation, Call Accounting, Invoice Management, Work Order, Wireless management, and
Online Directory, all of which enable an enterprise to design a solution that accommodates their
specific business needs. Additionally the continued expansion of the VeraSMART platform allows
Veramark to address business environments outside of the telemanagement related applications that
we have traditionally addressed.
Sales and service revenues provided by eCAS our telemanagement product, decreased 4% and 2%
respectively, for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2005 as compared to the same
three and nine month periods of 2004, primarily due to a decrease in direct sales to Avaya, Inc.
We have continued, however, to increase sales to Avayas master distributor channels, which have
increased 6% for the first nine months of 2005 from prior year levels, but that increase has not
been sufficient to offset the decrease in direct sales to Avaya.
Revenues generated from our Outsourced Solutions Group for the first nine months of 2005 have been
adversely impacted by the first quarter loss of a major client through a merger/consolidation, and
as a result are 19% less than the revenues achieved for the first nine months of 2004. During the
third quarter we added a new client to our Outsourced Group, Sony Corporation of America. Veramark
will perform all server administration and data collection for Sony as well as provide application
modules which will allow Sony to manage their call accounting, allocation, invoice management,
on-line directory and work order requirements. The initial contract is for a three year term with
a minimum of $175,000 of revenue guaranteed over the term of the agreement.
Cost of Sales
For the three months ended September 30, 2005 gross margin (defined as sales minus cost of sales)
was 83% of sales, up from 82% of sales for the same three month period of 2004. For both the nine
months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004 gross margins were 83% of sales. Cost of sales includes
both the direct and indirect product costs associated with current sales revenues in addition to
the amortization expense associated with software developments costs capitalized in prior periods.
Operating Expenses
Engineering and software development expenses of $266,000, net of capitalization, decreased 20% or
$64,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2005 from $330,000 for the same three months of
2004. For the nine months ended September 30, 2005 net engineering and software development
expenses of $746,000 decreased 35% from the same nine month period of 2004. The decrease in
expense is attributable to lower payroll costs in 2005 resulting from a reduction in overall
staffing levels required. The table below summarizes gross expenditures for engineering and
software development expenses, costs capitalized, costs amortized, and the resulting impact on the
Companys statements of operations for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 and
2004.

Throughout the balance of 2005 and moving forward into 2006 we will continue to focus our
engineering and development efforts on the continued expansion of the VeraSMART and eCAS platforms
in terms of additional features and functionality.
Selling, general and administrative expenses of $2,002,000 for the three months ended September 30,
2005 were virtually unchanged from the $1,996,000 of selling, general and administrative expenses
incurred for the three months ended September 30, 2004. For the nine months ended September 30,
2005, selling, general and administrative expenses of $5,771,000 decreased $297,000, or 5% from the
total expense of $6,068,000 for the first nine months of 2004. The decrease in year to date
expenses versus the prior year is primarily due to 23% reductions in both marketing, and customer
service and support costs from prior year levels.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Companys net cash position (which includes cash in the bank plus the value of short term
investments) of $1,257,000 at September 30, 2005 increased 16% from the June 30, 2005 balance of
$1,081,000, and is 14% higher than the cash balance of $1,103,000 at December 31, 2004. The
increased cash position includes a deposit of $86,000 received in the third quarter from a single
customer for product to be delivered in 2006.
Accounts receivable at September 30, 2005 total $1,399,000, an increase of 10% from the December
31, 2004 balance of $1,276,000. The reserve for bad debts at September 30, 2005 is $27,580 which
compares with a reserve balance of $25,000 at December 31, 2004. We continue to experience an
excellent credit history with our customers as evidenced by total write-offs for the first nine
months of 2005 amounting to less than $3,000.
15
Prepaid expenses of $151,000 at September 30, 2005 representing primarily the unutilized portion of
business insurances and maintenance contracts have increased from $109,000 at December 31, 2004.
The value of prepaid expenses is expected to decrease during the fourth quarter as the economic
value of these policies and contracts expire.
For the quarter ended September 30, 2005 we purchased $42,000 of new capital equipment, primarily
computer equipment and related accessories. For the nine months ended September 30, 2005 we have
purchased $91,000 of capital equipment.
During the quarter ended September 30, 2005 we capitalized $260,000 of software development costs,
bringing year to date capitalization to $917,000. In addition we amortized $201,000 of costs
previously capitalized. For the nine months ended September 30, 2005 we have now amortized
$604,000 of development costs all of which has been charged to cost of sales. As a result,
software development costs capitalized and carried on the companys balance sheet at September 30,
2005 total $2,832,000, an increase of $314,000 from the December 31, 2004 total.
Pension and related assets at September 30, 2005 are $2,899,000 versus $2,778,000 at December 31,
2004. The change is attributable to an increase in the cash surrender values of Company-owned life
insurance policies. The death benefit and accumulated cash values of these policies are intended
to fund future pension obligations of the company. The cash surrender values of these policies,
which approximates $2,334,000 at September 30 2005 is also available to fund current operations in
the event that should become necessary. Management has no current plans, nor anticipates the need
in the near future, to access these funds to meet operating requirements.
Current liabilities of $3,708,000 at September 30, 2005 have increased 3% from the December 31,
2004 balance of $3,616,000. The change in liabilities results from an increase of $400,000 in the
value of deferred revenues from $2,572,000 at December 31, 2004 to $2,972,000 at September 30,
2005. Deferred revenue consists of services such as training, installation, and maintenance and
support for which the company has billed customers, but for which it has not yet performed the
actual service. The largest component of the increase in deferred revenues is derived from
maintenance contracts generated from sales of the eCAS product. The increase in deferred revenues
offset decreases of $89,000 in accounts payable, $150,000 in accrued compensation, and $70,000 in
other accrued liabilities.
The September 30, 2005 Stockholders equity total of $1,529,000 compares with stockholders equity
of $1,453.000 at December 31, 2004. The change in equity for the nine months ended September 30,
2005 includes the year to date net income of $116,000, proceeds received from the exercise of
142,950 employee stock options totaling $64,000, and proceeds received from the purchase of 8,596
shares of stock through the employee stock purchase plan.
It is managements opinion that, given our current cash position, the access to cash surrender
values of company-owned life insurance policies, current operating expense levels, and the absence
of debt, the Company has sufficient liquidity to fund operation and development schedules for the
next twelve months and beyond.

Accounting Pronouncements
|
1) |
|
In December 2003, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued Staff Accounting
Bulletin (SAB) No. 104, Revenue Recognition, which updates the guidance in SAB No. 101,
integrates the related set of Frequently Asked Questions, and recognizes the role of EITF
00-21. The adoption of SAB No. 104 did not have a material effect on the Companys
consolidated financial statements. |
|
|
2) |
|
In November 2002, the Emerging Issues Task Force reached a consensus on Issue No. 00-21,
Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables. Issue 00-21 provides guidance on how to
account for arrangements that involve the delivery or performance of multiple products,
services and/or rights to use assets. The provisions of Issue 00-21 applied to revenue
arrangements entered into in periods beginning after June 15, 2003. The adoption of Issue
00-21 did not have a material effect on the Companys financial position or results of
operations. |
|
|
3) |
|
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS 123(R), which replaces SFAS 123, Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation, and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees. SFAS 123(R) requires compensation costs relating to share-based payment
transactions be recognized in financial statements. The pro forma disclosure previously
permitted under SFAS 123 will no longer be an acceptable alternative to recognition of
expenses in the financial statements. SFAS 123(R) is effective as of the beginning of the
first annual reporting period that begins after June 15, 2005, with early adoption
encouraged. We currently measure compensation costs related to share-based payments under APB
25, as allowed by SFAS 123, and provide disclosure in notes to financial statements as
required by SFAS 123. We are required to adopt SFAS 123(R) starting from the first fiscal
quarter of 2006. The adoption of SFAS 123(R) is not expected to have an adverse impact on our
net income and net income per share. |
|
|
4) |
|
In December 2004, FASB issued SFAS 153, Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assetsan amendment to
APB Opinion No. 29. This statement amends APB 29 to eliminate the exception for nonmonetary
exchanges of similar productive assets and replaces it with a general exception for exchanges
of nonmonetary assets that do not have commercial substance. A nonmonetary exchange has
commercial substance if the future cash flows of the entity are expected to change
significantly as a result of the exchange. Adoption of this statement is not expected to have
a material impact on our results of operations or financial condition. |
|
|
5) |
|
In May 2005, the FASB issued SFAS No. 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections a
replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and FASB Statement No. 3 (SFAS 154). SFAS 154 changes
the requirements for the accounting for and reporting of a change in accounting principle.
These requirements apply to all voluntary changes and changes required by an accounting
pronouncement in the unusual instance that the pronouncement does not include specific
transition provisions. SFAS 154 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
2005. As such, the Company is required to adopt these provisions at the beginning of the
fiscal year ended December 31, 2006. The Company does not expect that the adoption of SFAS
154 to have a significant impact on its financial statements. |
17
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect amounts reported therein. The most significant of these involving difficult or complex
judgments in 2005 include:
|
|
|
Revenue recognition |
|
|
|
|
Capitalization of software development costs |
|
|
|
|
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts |
|
|
|
|
Pension liability |
In each situation, management is required to make estimates about the effects of matters or
future events that are inherently uncertain.
Revenue Recognition
The Companys revenue consists of revenues from the licensing of software to resellers and end
user customers; fees for services rendered to include installation, training, implementation, and
customer maintenance contracts; and the outsourcing or hosting of services.
The Company recognizes software license revenue under Statement of Position No 97-2 Software
Revenue Recognition as amended by Statement of Position No. 98-9, Software Revenue Recognition
With Respect to Certain Transactions, Emerging Issues Task Force 00-21, Revenue Arrangements with
Multiple Deliverables, and related interpretations
Sales of licensed software sold directly to an end user customer are recognized as revenue
upon delivery and installation of the software at the customer site. Sales of licensed software to
a reseller are recognized as revenue when delivery is made to the reseller. Regardless of the form
of sale no revenue is recognized without persuasive evidence of an arrangement existing. Persuasive
evidence is determined to be a signed purchase order received from the customer or an equivalent
form for those customers lacking a formalized purchase order system. In the case of VeraSMART
sales, a software license agreement signed by both parties is required in addition to a purchase
order or equivalent. Additionally revenue is only recognized when a selling price is fixed or
determinable and collectibility of the receivable is deemed to be probable.
Service revenues such as training, installation and implementation are recognized when the
service is complete and acknowledged by the customer, regardless as to whether the sale is on a
direct basis or through a reseller arrangement.
Fees charged to customers for post-contract Customer Support are recognized ratably over the
term of the contract. Costs related to maintenance obligations are expensed as incurred.
Sales which constitute a multiple-element arrangement are accounted for by determining if the
elements can be accounted for as separate accounting units, and if so, by applying values to those
units for which there is vendor specific objective evidence of their fair value. We use the
residual method to apply any remaining balance to the remaining elements of the arrangement. More
specifically, this methodology applies when there is embedded maintenance (post-contract customer
support) involved in the sale of a software license, or when
18
the sale of a software license is made in conjunction with installation services. In the latter
case, the recognition of the software license is deferred until installation is completed.
The Companys revenues generated through hosting solutions are recognized using the
proportional performance method. Revenues are recognized in the month services are rendered and
earned under service agreements with clients where service fees are fixed or determinable.
Contracts can be terminated with 90 days written notice. All services provided by us through the
date of cancellation are due and payable under the contract terms.
The Company believes its revenue recognition policies are appropriate, in all circumstances,
and that its policies are reflective of complexities arising from customer arrangements involving
such features as maintenance, warranty agreements, license agreements, and other normal course of
business arrangements.
Capitalization of Software Development Costs
The Company capitalizes software development costs when technological feasibility has been
established for the software in accordance with SFAS No. 86, Accounting for the Costs of Computer
Software to be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed. Such capitalized costs are amortized on a
product-by-product basis over their economic life or the ratio of current revenues to current and
anticipated revenues from such software, whichever provides the greater amortization. The Company
periodically reviews the carrying value of capitalized software development costs and impairments
are recognized in the results of operations when the expected future undiscounted operating cash
flow derived from the capitalized software is less than its carrying value. Should the Company
inaccurately determine when a product reaches technological feasibility or the economic life of a
product, results could differ materially from those reported. Veramark uses what it believes are
reasonable assumptions and where applicable, established valuation techniques in making its
estimates.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the
potential inability of its customers to make required payments. Management specifically analyzes
accounts receivable, historical bad debts, credit concentrations and customer payment terms when
evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts.
Pension Liability
The Company sponsors an unfunded Supplemental Executive Retirement Program (SERP), which is
a nonqualified plan that provides certain key employees a defined pension benefit. In order to
properly record the net present value of future pension obligations a number of assumptions are
required to be made by Companys management. These assumptions include years of service, life
expectancies, and projected future salary increases for each participant. In addition, management
must make assumptions with regard to the proper long-term interest and liability discount rates to
be applied to these future obligations.
Should the Company need to alter any of these assumptions, there is the potential for
significant adjustments to future projected pension liabilities.
19
Issues and Risks
The following factors, among others discussed herein and in the Companys filings under the
Act, could cause actual results and future events to differ materially from those set forth or
contemplated in the forward-looking statements: economic, competitive, governmental and
technological factors, increased operating costs, failure to obtain necessary outside financing,
risks related to natural disasters and financial market fluctuations. Such factors also include:
Intellectual
Property Rights
Veramark regards its software as proprietary and attempts to protect it with a combination of
copyright, trademark and trade secret protections, employee and third-party non-disclosure
agreements and other methods of protection. Despite those precautions, it may be possible for
unauthorized third parties to copy certain portions of Veramarks products, reverse engineer
or obtain and use information that Veramark regards as proprietary. In addition, Veramark
sometimes use click-wrap licenses, under which it licenses its products, which may be
unenforceable under the laws of certain jurisdictions. Also, the laws of some foreign
countries do not protect Veramarks proprietary rights to the same extent as the laws of the
United States. Any misappropriation of Veramarks intellectual property could have a material
adverse effect on its business and results of operations. Furthermore, although Veramark
takes steps to prevent unlawful infringement of others intellectual property, there can be
no assurance that third parties will not assert infringement claims against Veramark in the
future with respect to current or future products. Any such assertion could require Veramark
to enter into royalty arrangements or result in costly litigation.
New
Products and Services
Veramark has made significant investments in research, development and marketing for new
products, services and technologies, including the VeraSMART software offering and its
service bureau outsourced solutions. Significant revenue from new product and service
investments may not be achieved for a number of years, if at all. Moreover, for such
products or services, operating margins may not be as high as the margins historically
experienced by Veramark.
Declines
in Demand for Software
If overall market demand for software and computer devices generally, as well as call
accounting software or enterprise level products specifically, declines, or corporate
spending for such products declines, Veramarks revenue will be adversely affected.
Additionally, Veramarks revenues would be unfavorably impacted if customers were to reduce
their purchases of new software products or upgrades to existing products.
Product
Development Schedule
The development of software products is a complex and time-consuming process. New products
and enhancements to existing products can require long development and testing periods.
Significant delays in new product releases or significant problems in creating new products,
particularly any delays in future releases of the VeraSMART suite of products, could
adversely affect Veramark revenues.
Competition
Veramark experiences intensive competition across all markets for its products and services.
Some competing firms have greater name recognition and more financial, marketing and
technological resources than Veramark. These competitive pressures may result in decreased
sales volumes, price
20
reductions,
and/or increased operating costs, such as for marketing and sales incentives, resulting in
lower revenues, gross margins and operating income.
Marketing
and Sales
Veramarks marketing and distribution strategy is founded on building mutually beneficial
relationships with companies that have established distribution networks. Some sell
privately labeled, customized products developed and manufactured by Veramark to their
specific specifications, while others resell Veramarks products. Any loss of the continued
availability of those relationships could have a material adverse effect on Veramarks
business and results of operations.
21
Item 3 Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
The Company has no long-term bank debt obligations. The Company has no foreign currency
exchange risk and has no foreign currency exchange contracts.
Item 4 Controls and Procedures
Based upon an evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Companys
Chief Executive Officer and the Companys Treasurer (Chief Accounting Officer) concluded that the
Companys disclosure controls and procedures are effective to provide reasonable assurance that
information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the
time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the
Companys management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or
persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required
disclosure. There have been no changes in the Companys internal controls over financial reporting,
that occurred during the period covered by this report, that have materially affected, or are
reasonably likely to materially affect the Companys internal controls over financial reporting.
The Companys disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls over financial
reporting provide reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that all deficiencies in design or
operation of those control systems, or all instances of errors or fraud, will be prevented or
detected. Those control systems are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving the goals
of those systems in light of the Companys resources and nature of the Companys business
operations. The Companys disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial
reporting remain subject to risks of human error and the risk that controls can be circumvented for
wrongful purposes by one or more individuals in management or non-management positions.
