Infinite Graphics Incorporated (hereinafter referred to as "Company") was incorporated in Minnesota on November 26, 1969, under the name of Infinite Graphics Incorporated. On September 5, 1984, the Company became a public company as a result of a registered offering of common stock. (b) FINANCIAL INFORMATION ABOUT INDUSTRY SEGMENTS. The Company has two distinct but related business segments. The first segment, the Engineering Services Division, designs and produces computer generated precision graphics, normally on a custom basis and primarily for the electronics industry. In addition, this segment produces precision glass products, designs printed circuit boards, and provides CAD/CAM services. The second business segment, the CAD/CAM Software Division, designs, assembles, and markets computer-aided design and manufacturing software systems. These design systems primarily consist of design/manufacturing software for 32 bit micro-computers. The Company occasionally sells third party vendors' software. The Company normally sells software only but will integrate hardware/software when the customers desire a turnkey solution. The percentage and dollar amount of the Company's sales of its Engineering Services Division and CAD/CAM Software Division for the years ended April 30, 1996, 1995, and 1994, are as follows:

Reference is made to Note 11 of the Financial Statements for revenues, operating profits and identifiable assets attributable to the Company's two business segments. (c) BUSINESS. ENGINEERING SERVICES DIVISION GENERAL. The Company was organized in 1969 to provide reprographic services to architects and engineers. In 1973, the Company expanded its graphic reproduction services primarily into the electronics industry. The precision graphics produced by the Company are often of an electronic circuit that may be used to produce a printed circuit board, but may also include precision graphics for other products. Prior to 1975, the technique used by the Company for producing precision graphics involved the hand drafting of a large scale model of the graphic image using precision drafting instruments. The drafting image was then photographically reduced to the desired size. In 1975, the Company first began developing computer software programs for artwork generation. These computer software programs enable the Company to more accurately and quickly produce most of its precision graphics products. Although the hand drafting and photographic reduction process is still occasionally used by the Company in generating precision graphics, substantially all of the precision graphics now generated by the Company are produced through the use of computer-aided design (CAD) or computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) systems. In 1980, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets and equipment of the printed circuit board design division of Data Graph, Inc. It was at this time that the Company commenced designing printed circuit boards as a service for others. In March 1986, the Company acquired a MacDonald-Dettwiler laser photoplotter which allows the Company to provide same day service to its customers. Due to increased demands, the Company acquired additional laser photoplotters in 1988, 1992, and 1995. One of the photoplotters has scanning capability which also allows the Company to clean up old artwork. In 1993, the Company wrote software for one of its photoplotters that allows the plotter to plot various shades of gray scale and has allowed the Company to plot satellite images and orthophotos for the mapping industry. In 1994, the Company added the capability of plotting for the graphic arts industry. In 1995, the Company added a 16,000 dot per inch photoplotter to its Minneapolis facility. SERVICES. Using the customer's data or design, the Company produces a precision graphic image, in almost all cases, by using a computer-aided design system. The precision graphic image produced by the Company is generally provided to the customer on film or glass. The film or glass is then used to reproduce the precision graphic image on metal, glass, or plastic material which has been photographically sensitized. Through chemical etching or electroplating processes, metal, glass, or plastic materials are then manufactured for the Company's customer into the desired product, often in a mass production process. The precision graphic images produced are often that of an electronic circuit and are generally used to produce thin copper circuits to be assembled into electronic circuit boards. However, the images may also be of other items, such as carriers or lead frames for integrated circuit chips, or may be used by the customer to produce etched or plated parts and scales. Other precision graphic services provided by the Company involve the production of film or glass photographic images or the production of precision graphics on paper or on a magnetic tape or disk. The customer may then use the tape or disk to produce its own film or product. The Company also assembles its precision graphics with other components to supply sub-assemblies. The Company's glass products all involve the generation of precision graphics by the Company, and include precision rulers and grids, and products produced to a customer's specifications, such as reticles, and glass rings (called encoder disks) used in the assembly of high precision machines such as CAT scanners. The design of printed circuit boards involves the conversion of the customer's basic design of the circuit and its various electronic components into an exact image of that circuit for a board of pre-established size. The Company uses its computer-aided design systems to supply printed circuit board artwork. During fiscal 1989, the Company instituted a scanning service for its customers. Scanning enables customers to convert old artwork (tape ups) and drawings to electronic CAD databases. Scanning is an inexpensive solution for printed circuit board manufacturing houses with tooling changes. The benefits to the customer from scanning are increased precision artwork, repeatability, larger yields of boards, faster turnaround, and a wider range of editing capabilities. The Company purchased additional scanning equipment in fiscal 1990 to increase precision capabilities for its customers. To service the Los Angeles marketplace, the Company acquired the assets of a California precision graphics service company from bankruptcy court on September 13, 1995. The acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. The Company included the results of operations of the California precision graphics company beginning September 13, 1995 and revenues for fiscal year 1996 were $382,000. The Company opened a sales and production facility in Salem, New Hampshire, on January 3, 1990. It was established to service the Boston and Northeastern U.S. marketplace. As of May 1, 1994, the Company entered into a letter of intent to form a joint venture. By contributing substantially all of the assets of the Company's New Hampshire operation, the Company owns 50 percent of the equity of the joint venture and a major New Hampshire customer owns the other 50 percent. Since May 1, 1994, the New Hampshire operation has been operating as a joint venture pursuant to the letter of intent and is recorded under the equity method of accounting, therefore revenues are not included in the financials for fiscal 1996 and 1995. During fiscal 1996, the operation generated approximately $500,000 in revenue, compared to $544,000 in fiscal 1995 and $449,000 in fiscal 1994. As of June 30, 1996, there are four employees operating the facility. EQUIPMENT AND PRODUCTION. In order to produce its precision graphics, the Company uses its own IGI software products: ProCADD (also configured as ProFLEX and IGI 2100), CAM, EXT, ICE and PAR; equipment manufactured by Racal-Redac and Calay, and other software and hardware systems. Using such computer-aided design systems, the circuit or other graphics are designed by the Company's personnel to the customer's specifications. A graphic design produced on the computer-aided design and manufacturing (CAD/CAM) system can then be stored electronically. This information is then used to feed a plotting device which draws the design. The plotting device can be a pen and ink plotter, or more often for precision graphics, a photoplotting device. The Company owns or leases a number of photoplotting devices, two of which were manufactured by Gerber Scientific Instruments, Inc. A photoplotting device is a highly stable platform upon which film is placed. The motion of the light and/or platform is controlled by information stored on the disk produced on the Company's computer-aided manufacturing system. These photoplotters include a Gerber 4135 in which the light pen positioning is laser controlled; a Gerber 1434, which is installed in a class 100 clean room; two MacDonald Dettwiler Fire 9000 laser photoplotters, and three Optrotech 5008 imaging systems. The Company also owns photographic equipment used in photo reduction, film processors, step and repeat equipment, custom equipment, and various other photographic, measuring and computer equipment. CUSTOMERS. The Company's Services Division customers are generally in the business of producing electronic products. During fiscal 1996, sales for the Services division accounted for approximately 63 percent of the Company's total sales. The precision graphic and circuit board design services of the Company are sometimes requested because of the needed precision, or because certain phases of the process necessary to produce the required graphics are not within the customer's capability. However, it is more often the case that some or all phases of such production are within the customer's capability, but that the customer has made a business decision to engage the services of the Company. The Company provided custom precision graphics and circuit board design services to approximately 400 customers during fiscal 1996. During fiscal 1996, no one customer in the Services Division accounted for ten percent or more of the Company's sales. The Company's potential customers include virtually all of the approximately 650 captive and merchant printed circuit board fabrication facilities in the United States. MARKETING. During fiscal 1996, the Company continued focusing its marketing activity primarily on PC designer and captive and merchant printed circuit board manufacturing. This approach continues to take advantage of the Company's 20-plus years experience in dealing with the printed circuit board (PCB) industry. The distribution channels include a combination of direct Company sales personnel and independent sales agents. These personnel are organized to address specific segments within the general PCB market. Historically, the product responsibility of the Company's marketing efforts at a given account has been split. Since 1992, the Company has combined product responsibilities, first at printed circuit board manufacturing accounts and later at larger Fortune 500 and electronics companies. The sales effort is supported internally by a customer follow-up program involving in-house sales support. The purpose of the follow-up program is to identify the impact that the Company's goods and services are having upon the customers and also to adjust what is being offered to meet current market needs. In terms of product being offered, the software portion of the product line emphasizes manufacturing process automation including panelization, electrical test, and manufacturability analysis and enhancement. The service side of the business continues to emphasize phototooling. Coupled with that are two new services for graphic arts and mapping, designed to expand the Company's markets. The Company also continues to offer design capability for the PC and precision graphics marketplace. BUSINESS BACKLOG. As of April 30, 1996, the Company's backlog of Services Division orders was approximately $63,000 as compared with approximately $113,000 at April 30, 1995. All of the Company's April 30, 1996, backlog is expected to be filled within the current fiscal year. No material portion of the Company's services business is seasonal. CAD/CAM SOFTWARE DIVISION GENERAL. In 1975, the Company began development of computer-aided design equipment that enables faster and more accurate design of precision graphics. In 1981, utilizing experience gained through designing its own CAD/CAM software for its service operations, the Company began development of a desktop CAD/CAM system to meet growing industry demand. In 1984, the IGI Desktop 2100 CAD/CAM system was introduced to the marketplace. Additionally, during fiscal 1988, the Company licensed its ECAM software on an exclusive basis to a Fortune 100 company. The Company maintained the right to market the software to specified customers and maintained its then existing installed base. Subsequently, because certain sales objectives were not attained by the licensee, in 1990 the Company, re-acquired the right to compete in selling the software covered by this license agreement to the precision graphics marketplace. The Company has continued to enhance products to address the tooling and inspection issues facing printed circuit board fabricators and designers of flexible and hybrid circuits. During 1995, the Company continued its focus into the precision graphics marketplace, increasing its service potential and developing a new product, ICE, for the analysis and cleanup of digital data from the design and manufacturing of printed circuit boards. The Company markets five software products: CAM, EXT, PAR, ICE, and ProCADD (also configured as ProFLEX and IGI 2100). CAM A general product for making tooling for the PWB fabricator. EXT Generates electrical net list for graphics and has the capability to compare it to other net lists. It also has full support of netlist for bare board electrical test. PAR "Producibility Analysis Report" analyzes and presents to the user design and manufacturing plans as well as possible design modifications to increase yields and reduce costs. ICE "Interactive Conflict Editor" is used to automatically fix the problems found by PAR. ProCADD IGI's basic CAD package. It is sold stand alone for general 2D applications, but is primarily packaged with special software modules for flex circuit design and chemical milling. MANUFACTURING. The Company's manufacturing activities related to its computer-aided design systems consist primarily of developing and enhancing software, modifying and assembling the various modules of its software system, and testing of the systems. These manufacturing activities are conducted at the Company's facilities in Minneapolis. CUSTOMERS. The Company's Software Division customers are generally in the business of designing and manufacturing products for the electronics industry. The Company's customers also generally use CAD/CAM products and are knowledgeable of what the Company's CAD/CAM products provide. During fiscal 1996, sales for the Software Division accounted for approximately 37 percent of the Company's total sales. The Company's Software Division sold products and services to approximately 90 customers during fiscal 1996. No one customer accounted for ten percent or more of total Company sales during fiscal 1996. MARKETING AND DISTRIBUTION. The Company has four people involved with the sales of Software Division products as of June 30, 1996. During fiscal 1996, approximately 70 percent of sales of software division products were made by direct sales personnel, and it is anticipated that direct sales personnel, rather than independent representatives or dealers, will continue to be the primary distribution channel for North America. Distributors and dealers are the primary channel for Asia and Europe. Product sales promotion activity in fiscal 1996 involved the use of trade shows, direct contact and direct mail, along with press releases to generate leads for sales follow up. During fiscal 1996, the Company has continued to concentrate its marketing and product development activities on supporting the printed circuit fabrication segment of the electronics industry. Its efforts deal with three types of applications: flex design, printed wiring board manufacturing, and electrical test. BUSINESS BACKLOG. As of April 30, 1996, the Company's backlog of Software Division orders was approximately $ 0. The Company had a backlog of orders of approximately $35,000 for its computer-aided design systems as of April 30, 1995. No material portion of the Company's software business is seasonal. SOURCES OF SUPPLY SERVICES. The Company believes nearly all of the supplies and equipment used in its precision graphics business are readily available from a number of sources, except for the following items. During fiscal 1996, the Company continued to receive single source photo sensitive glass from Eastman Kodak. If Kodak ceases to provide the Company with such glass, the Company would have extreme difficulty in finding an alternative source or substitute material. In addition, the Company continues to rely upon Gerber Scientific Instruments, Inc., Cymbolic Sciences and Orbotech, Inc. to provide spare parts to repair the photoplotting instruments purchased from them and used by the Company. The Company also relies on limited vendors for its iron oxide and chrome glass blanks. Loss of any source of such supply could adversely affect the Company's business. SOFTWARE. The Company believes nearly all of the supplies and equipment used in its Software business are available from a number of sources. If the Company is required to change vendors, the Company may have difficulty obtaining parts as needed because of high industry demand. The Company will become more dependent on its suppliers as it integrates photoplotters and other hardware into its software systems business. COMPETITION SERVICES DIVISION. The precision graphics services which the Company offers through its Services Division is composed of three main product areas. The first is photoplotting and its associated processes. The second is design and the third is large area fine line tooling and glass products. In the photoplotting area, there are approximately 100 companies in the U.S. which offer the same general services. The major differences between the Company and the competitors are based on the automation, personnel, and actual type of photoplotting equipment that is employed and the quality of service offered to their customers. Based on these differences, the Company can enjoy certain competitive advantages; however, it is possible for many of the competitors to acquire the same quality personnel and equipment to improve their service and for the Company's competitive advantage in photoplotting to be eliminated. The design services portion of the precision graphics business faces a minimum of 300 competitors nationally, ranging from very small garage-type operations to those that are several times the Company's size. Many of these companies have greater financial resources than the Company. The large area fine line tooling and glass products portion of the business has limited competition; however, some of this competition has substantially greater financial resources than the Company. The Company must work very hard to maintain levels of service and quality which permit it to differentiate itself from the competitors. SOFTWARE DIVISION. The Company's software products face strong competition in the marketplace, involving those applications at the printed circuit board manufacturers known as Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAM) from approximately ten companies. Competitors include Tibor Darvais, Optrotech, Barco, Valor and CSI Inc. All of those companies currently have financial, technical, and marketing resources which are equal or greater than those of the Company. In addition to the existing competitors, the nature of the business is such that any number of smaller companies could enter the marketplace and further dilute the availability of business. The principal method of competition is based on technical capability. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT The Company spent approximately $338,000 on research and development activities during fiscal 1996, as opposed to $269,000 in fiscal 1995 and $165,000 in fiscal 1994. In 1985, the Company primarily completed its research and development regarding its CAD/CAM software. Since this date, the Company has focused its activity on enhancing the capabilities and features of its CAD/CAM software in an effort to improve the marketability and life of the product. The Company continues to investigate the possibility of acquiring developed products to complement its current products or to enter into license agreements to market its developed products. During 1996, the Company enhanced its existing products, especially its new ICE product. During fiscal 1997, the Company plans to continue to develop enhancements to its existing products, which will maintain the Company's technical leadership on printed circuit board manufacturing applications. ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE The Company believes it is in compliance with all federal, state and local requirements with regard to air and waste water emissions and has no plans to make significant capital expenditures for environmental control facilities. EMPLOYMENT The Company had 47 full-time and 12 part-time employees as of June 30, 1996. There are also four full-time individuals employed by the New Hampshire joint venture operation. The number of employees is expected to vary during fiscal 1997 depending upon the Company's efforts to automate and expand. None of the Company's employees are covered by a collective bargaining agreement, and the Company believes its relations with employees are good. ITEM 2. PROPERTIES. (a) REAL PROPERTY. The business of the Company was conducted at the five following locations during fiscal 1996. The Company sold its Plymouth facility in December 1990 and is leasing back approximately 3000 square feet for its micro production (clean room facility) and some storage. The Company substantially utilizes the following facilities and believes they are suitable for its needs. Approx.

Lake St. facility. The mortgage is effective as of January 20, 1995. The Company makes monthly principal payments of $4,000 per month plus interest at fourteen percent per annum. The note requires a balloon payment of $100,000 at the maturity date of January 20, 1998. (2) Lease between the Company and Infinite Properties, a partnership of the Company's Chairman of the Board, Clifford F. Stritch, Jr., and Daniel R. Shultz, dated October 31, 1983. The original term of the lease expired on October 31, 1988. The Company exercised its option to renew the lease for an additional five year period. The lease was subsequently amended to extend first to April 30, 1995, then to April 30, 1996 and now to April 30, 1997. The rent is $2,750 per month. (3) Lease between the Company and Anchor Paper is for space for the Company's clean room housing the Gerber 1434 photoplotter. The rent is $1,910 per month plus $500 for utilities. The current lease terminates December 31, 1996, but is cancelable any time with a ninety-day notice from the Company. The Company is presently looking at various options. (4) Lease between the Company and Harold J. Brooks, a real estate developer who owns the property in which the Company's New Hampshire joint venture is located. The lease was extended two years on January 31, 1995. The basic rent is $15,000 and $15,625 for the first and last year, respectively. The Company also pays real-estate taxes, utilities and common-area maintenance fees under the terms of this lease. (5) Lease between the Company and Superior Investment Company, L.P., a California limited partnership, for the 17332 Von Karman facility. The commencement date of the lease is September 1, 1995, for a term of 36 months expiring on August 31, 1998. The rent for the first year is $32,400 or $2,700 per month. The rent for the second year is $33,696 or $2,808 per month. The rent for the third year is $34,824 or $2,902 per month. The Company believes all of the above properties have unique characteristics and significant improvements specific to the Company's business and are of diminished value to a general commercial tenant. Identification and development of comparable locations would require a significant investment on the part of the Company. ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS. The Company is currently involved in two legal actions. One relates to a non-compete clause in a former sales executive's employment agreement and the other relates to a dispute with regard to payment for services alleged rendered to the Company. The Company believes that the outcome of these lawsuits will not have a material adverse effect on its financial condition. There are no other material legal proceedings pending to which the Company is currently a party or to which the property of the Company is the subject. ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS. There were no matters submitted to a vote of security holders during the fourth quarter of the fiscal 1996. PART II ITEM 5. MARKET FOR THE COMPANY'S COMMON STOCK AND RELATED SECURITY HOLDER MATTERS. (a) The Company's Common Stock is quoted in the over-the-counter market.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS. SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT. Except for the historical information contained herein, the matters discussed in this annual report are forward-looking statements which involve risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to economic, competitive, governmental and technological factors affecting the Company's operations, markets, products, services and prices, and other factors discussed in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The financial statements have been prepared on a going-concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As shown in Infinite Graphics Incorporated's (the Company) balance sheet as of April 30, 1996, the Company's current liabilities exceeded its current assets by $490,045 and, during fiscal 1996, certain vendors were not paid in accordance with their credit terms. During fiscal 1997, the Company has plans to increase sales approximately the same as that achieved in fiscal 1996. If these sales are not achieved and additional debt and/or equity financing is not obtained, the Company will not be able to implement its growth plans and could be required to reduce software development activity. Net sales were $5,087,000 in fiscal year 1996, versus $4,156,000 in 1995 and $5,147,000 in 1994. Operating profits (before general, selling, and administrative and interest expenses) were $1,778,000 in fiscal 1996, versus $1,360,000 in fiscal 1995 and $2,236,000 in fiscal 1994. Net income was $144,000 in fiscal year 1996, versus a net loss of $384,000 in fiscal 1995 and net income of $587,000 in fiscal 1994. In fiscal 1996, the Company concentrated on providing services and software for the precision graphics marketplace, primarily for the manufacture of electronic products. The Company focused its software marketing and sales efforts on the CAM line, particularly the successful PAR module and its companion module, ICE, introduced in the spring of 1995. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS. The Company has two business segments: Engineering Services Division ("Services") and System Software Division ("Software"). The results of these two segments are discussed in the following discussion and analysis:
NET SALES BY DIVISION 1996 1995 1994 ------------------------ ------------------------ ------------------------ $ Percent $ Percent $ Percent Division Thousands of Total Thousands of Total Thousands of Total Services $3,204 63% $2,548 61% $3,089 60% Software 1,883 37% 1,608 39% 2,058 40% ====== ====== ====== ====== ====== ====== Total Sales $5,087 100% $4,156 100% $5,147 100%
The Company's Engineering Services Division provides precision graphics products primarily to the electronics industry. Sales for fiscal 1996 were $ 3,204,000, an increase of $656,000 over fiscal 1995, or 26 percent. As a result of the increase in sales, the Engineering Services Division had an operating profit of $869,000 in fiscal 1996 versus $608,000 in the prior year. The margins for the Company increased primarily due to increased revenue. The majority of the Company's increase in service sales in fiscal 1996 can be attributed to increased micro products sales and to the acquisition of the California precision graphics service company, which contributed $382,000 of sales. Engineering services revenues in fiscal 1995 of $2,548,000 were 17.5 percent lower than revenues of $3,089,000 in 1994, because of the change in the Company's method of recording sales from the Company's New Hampshire operations resulting from the joint venture. Engineering services represented 63 percent of total revenues in fiscal 1996, up from 61 percent in 1995 and from 60 percent in 1994. The Company entered into a letter of intent on May 1, 1994 with a major customer in New Hampshire pursuant to which that customer acquired a 50-percent ownership of the Company's New Hampshire operation. Management believes that the operation will benefit from closer hands-on management, which will increase sales and profitability in the long run. The Company also believes this is a sound business philosophy to expand its business into other regions. During fiscal 1995, the New Hampshire operations were recorded using the equity method. Prior to May 1, 1994, the New Hampshire operations were included in the operations of the Company. The New Hampshire operation had sales of $500,000 in fiscal 1996, $544,000 in fiscal 1995, and $449,000 in fiscal 1994. The Company acquired the assets of Infinite Technologies of Irvine, California from bankruptcy court on September 13, 1995. Infinite Technologies has been a leader in photoplotting technologies in the Los Angeles area for the past seven years. Management believes the addition of the Company's software technology and state of the art plotting equipment to Infinite Technologies' leadership will offer a higher level of service and unique capabilities to our new customers. The acquisition is another step in the Company's strategic plan to systematically address the world-wide industry demand for precision graphics software and services. System Software Division sales were $ 1,883,000 in 1996, an increase of $275,000 or 17 percent over fiscal 1995. Software had an operating profit in 1996 of $909,000 versus $752,000 in 1995. The increase in software sales was the result of the Company's newly assembled sales force. The Software Division continues to focus on phototooling software and services, having eliminated its mechanical software and hardware systems for this market. The Company has enhanced its software with advanced capabilities for the printed circuit market segment and has concentrated its efforts on marketing and customer development in this segment. Software sales of $1,608,000 in fiscal 1995 were down 22 percent from revenues of $2,058,000 in the prior year. In fiscal 1996, software sales were 37 percent of total revenues versus 39 percent in 1995 and 40 percent in 1994.
OPERATING PROFIT BY DIVISION 1996 1995 1994 ------------------------- ------------------------ -------------------------- Percent of Percent of Percent of $ Operating $ Operating $ Operating Thousands Profit Thousands Profit Thousands Profit Services 869 49 608 45 1,032 46 Software 909 51 752 55 1,204 54 Total Operating Profit Before Unallocable Expenses 1,778 100 1,360 100 2,236 100 Selling, General & Administrative, and Interest Expenses (1654) (1,803) (1,787) Net Income (Loss) 144 (384) 587
The Company's overall gross margin in fiscal 1996 was 42 percent, compared to 41 percent in fiscal 1995 and 47 percent in fiscal 1994. The $2,138,000 gross profit for fiscal 1996 compared to $1,710,000 for fiscal 1995 and $2,402,000 for fiscal 1994. The Company's total selling, general and administrative (S, G&A) expenses decreased by $224,000 in fiscal 1996 due to decreases in sales personnel, commissions and related expenses, bad debt expense, and professional fees. Total S, G&A expenses as a percentage of sales were 32 percent for fiscal 1996, down from 44 percent for fiscal 1995 and 34 percent for fiscal 1994. As revenues increased, S, G&A as a percentage of revenues have decreased due to the change in sales and marketing strategy. The Company's research and development costs were $338,000 in fiscal 1996, up from $269,000 in fiscal 1995, reflecting enhancement and repackaging of technology into new products. Fiscal 1995 research and development costs increased to $269,000 from $165,000 in fiscal 1994, as the new product line moved from development into production stage. In all three years, the Company's research and development expenses were between three and seven percent of sales. The Company's capitalized software development costs decreased $35,000 ($573,000 of additions net of amortization of $608,000) in fiscal 1996, increased $242,000 ($795,000 of additions net of amortization of $553,000) in fiscal 1995, and increased $17,000 ($529,000 of additions net of amortization of $512,000) in fiscal 1994. The Company's interest expense was $117,000 in fiscal 1996, $83,000 in fiscal 1995, and $60,000 in fiscal 1994. The increase in net interest expense during fiscal 1996 and 1995 is primarily due to an increase in overall debt. The Company's share of net income of the joint venture for the years ended April 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively, was $21,199 and $62,388. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES During fiscal 1997, the Company will continue to focus on services and software for the precision graphics market place, primarily for the design and manufacture of printed circuit boards. The Company will continue to concentrate on customers to which it can provide both software and services, while also expanding its breadth of services to include more high-precision graphics and postscript plotting for the graphic and CAM industry. The Company will focus its software marketing and sales efforts on the CAM line, particularly the successful PAR module and its companion module, ICE, introduced in the spring of 1995. These software application modules address the Printed Wiring Board (PWB) manufacturing segment. The Company will also increase its marketing of PAR software for the PWB design segment, based on the successful reworking of this technology into a lower-cost PWB design package during the past year. The PWB design market segment is over 30 times larger than the manufacturing segment. The Company will also continue its efforts to increase automation and streamlining of operational support and overhead functions, while maintaining high technical quality and quick service. The automation of operational activities will be extended into such functions as accounting, management information systems and manufacturing resource planning. The Company's capital expenditures for equipment, automation improvements and new opportunities in fiscal 1997 are expected to be approximately $750,000. The Company anticipates that financing for such expenditures will be derived from planned operations, leases and obtaining additional debt and/or equity financing. If the Company does not achieve its operations plan and additional financing is not obtained, it will restrict planned business growth. LIQUIDITY. The Company's cash flow from operations was $765,000 for fiscal 1996. The largest component of cash flow from operations was depreciation and amortization of $851,000. The Company's cash flow from operations was $825,000 for fiscal 1995. The largest components of cash flow were depreciation and amortization of $761,000 and accounts payable accruals and other accrued expenses of $410,000, being partially offset by the net loss of $384,000. The Company's cash flow from operations was $1,044,000 in fiscal year 1994, consisting primarily of depreciation and amortization of $754,000 and net income of $587,000. In fiscal 1996, the Company invested cash of $597,000 in software and capital equipment. Additional capital equipment was financed through accounts payable, long-term debt and capital leases. Cash provided from planned operations, the obtaining of additional debt and/or equity financing, and availability under the Company's line of credit are estimated to be sufficient to support the Company's expected cash needs for fiscal 1997. While the Company is exploring certain funding possibilities, it has no agreements to provide additional debt or equity capital and there can be no assurance that additional funds will be available, or if available, available on terms acceptable to the Company. If the Company is unable to obtain additional debt and/or equity financing, it may not be able to expand its investment into new operations, and may also have to reduce its level of software development. As of April 30, 1996, the current liabilities exceed current assets by $490,000. CAPITAL RESOURCES. The Company's capital expenditure for equipment and improvements, including capital leases and accounts payable, was $117,000 in fiscal 1996, a decrease of $317,000 from capital expenditures of $434,000 in fiscal 1995. The Company invested primarily in equipment and improvements essential for present operations in fiscal 1996, but plans to increase its investment in capital resources for future operations over the next two or three years by obtaining additional debt or equity financing. The Company's cash flow used in investing activities were $599,000, $1,128,000 and $791,000 in fiscal years 1996, 1995, and 1994, respectively. In fiscal 1996 cash used in investing activities consisted primarily of expenditures for capitalized software of $573,000. In fiscal year 1995 it consisted primarily of expenditures for capitalized software of $795,000 and capital expenditures of $333,000. In fiscal year 1994 it consisted primarily of capitalized software of $529,000 and capital expenditures of $262,000. The Company's cash flow used in financing activities was $166,000 in fiscal year 1996, consisting primarily of payments on long-term debt of $148,000. The cash flow provided by financing activities was $190,000 in fiscal year 1995 consisting primarily of the net effect of borrowings and payments under revolving credit agreements of $135,000. The cash flow used in financing activities was $141,000 in fiscal year 1994, consisting primarily of the net effect of borrowing and payments under revolving credit agreements of $93,000. OTHER ITEMS. Inflation has not had any significant impact upon the Company's results of operation. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS. In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 121, ACCOUNTING FOR THE IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS AND FOR LONG-LIVED ASSETS TO BE DISPOSED OF. SFAS No. 121, establishes accounting standards for the impairment of long-lived assets, certain identifiable intangibles, and goodwill and for certain long-lived assets and intangibles to be disposed of. Under SFAS No. 121, entities are required to review such assets for impairment whenever circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. In performing the review of recoverability of such assets, the entity compares the expected undiscounted future cash flows that results from the use of the asset and its disposition and recognizes an impairment loss if such cash flows are less than the carrying amount of the asset. SFAS No. 121 will be adopted by the Company in fiscal 1997. The Company has not yet determined the effect adopting SFAS No. 121 will have on its financial position and results of operations. In October 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 123, ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION. SFAS No. 123, encourages companies to adopt a new accounting method that accounts for stock compensation awards based on their estimated fair value at the date they are granted. However, companies are permitted to continue following current accounting requirements for employee stock-based transactions, which generally do not result in an expense charge for most options if the exercise price is at least equal to the fair market value of the stock at the date of grant. Companies that follow existing standards would be required to disclose in a note to the financial statements the effect on net income (loss) had the Company recognized expense for options based on SFAS No. 123. SFAS No. 123 is effective for the Company's fiscal year ending April 30, 1997 and would require disclosure information in those financial statements about stock options granted in fiscal 1996 and thereafter. The Company has not yet determined if it will elect to change to the fair value method, nor has it determined the effect SFAS No. 123 will have on net income (loss) and earnings (loss) per share should it elect to make such change. Adoption of SFAS No. 123 will not have any effect on the Company's cash flows. ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA. (a) FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.

INFINITE GRAPHICS INCORPORATED NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEARS ENDED APRIL 30, 1996, 1995, AND 1994 1. FINANCIAL CONDITION AND MANAGEMENT'S PLAN TO OVERCOME FINANCIAL CHALLENGES The financial statements have been prepared on a going-concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As shown in Infinite Graphics Incorporated's (the Company) balance sheet as of April 30, 1996, the Company's current liabilities exceeded its current assets by $490,045 and, during fiscal 1996, certain vendors were not paid in accordance with their credit terms. The Company's continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate cash flow sufficient to meet its obligations as they become due or continue to extend payment terms of existing obligations; obtain additional debt and/or equity financing; continue to fund required software development efforts; and sustain profitability. The Company has implemented plans to increase sales, pay vendors in accordance with their credit terms, and obtain additional debt and/or equity financing in the near future. Management of the Company believes these plans will be sufficient to fund future operations. However, there can be no assurance that the Company's business will develop as anticipated by management or that additional financing will be available. If management's plans are not achieved, it may not be able to expand operations and may also have to reduce its level of software development. 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS - The Company designs, assembles, integrates, and markets computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) systems and software. The Company produces computer-generated precision graphics on a custom basis primarily for the electronics industry and designs printed circuit boards and produces precision glass products. REVENUE RECOGNITION - Revenue on sales of CAD/CAM systems and precision graphics is recognized when the products are shipped to the customer. If the Company is subject to insignificant obligations on sales of CAD/CAM systems, the costs of performing these insignificant obligations are accrued at the time revenue on the sale of CAD/CAM systems is recognized. Maintenance contract revenues are deferred and recognized as income over the contract period. INVENTORIES - Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market. PROPERTY, PLANT, AND EQUIPMENT - Property, plant, and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of five to twenty-five years for buildings and improvements, five years for leasehold improvements, and three to ten years for equipment. CAPITALIZED SOFTWARE COSTS - The Company capitalizes certain costs incurred in developing and enhancing its software products in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 86, COMPUTER SOFTWARE TO BE SOLD, LEASED, OR OTHERWISE MARKETED, and amortizes such costs over the remaining economic life of the related products, which is estimated to be three years for its internally developed products ($1,040,616 and $1,009,486, net of accumulated amortization at April 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively). Certain acquired software technology ($29,664 and $95,819, net of accumulated amortization at April 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively) is being amortized over its estimated remaining useful life of three to five years. The Company regularly evaluates the ability to realize capitalized software costs from product sales and charges any unrecoverable costs to operations when determinable. Amortization of capitalized software charged to cost of goods sold amounted to $608,334, $556,618, and $512,149 for the years ended April 30, 1996, 1995, and 1994, respectively. INVESTMENT IN JOINT VENTURE - The Company's investment in a joint venture is accounted for using the equity method. INCOME TAXES - Income taxes are deferred for all temporary differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities. Deferred taxes are recorded using the enacted tax rates scheduled by tax law to be in effect when the temporary differences are expected to be settled or realized. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance to the extent that the assets may not be realizable. NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE - Net income (loss) per share is based upon the weighted average common and common equivalent shares outstanding. For the year ended April 30, 1995, common stock equivalents (stock options and warrants) are not included since their effect was antidilutive. For the years ended April 30, 1996 and 1994, common stock equivalents (stock options and warrants) increased the weighted average common and common equivalent shares outstanding by 359,684 and 407,569 shares, respectively. STATEMENTS OF CASH FLOWS - Supplemental disclosures of cash flow information for the years ended April 30 are as follows: 1996 1995 1994 Cash paid for interest $ 120,518 $ 91,427 $ 92,402 Cash paid for taxes 4,745 14,823 3,668 Noncash investing and financing activities are as follows: The Company acquired the assets of a California precision graphics service company from bankruptcy court on September 13, 1995. The fair value of the assets acquired was $103,500. The Company paid $27,500 in cash and financed the remaining $76,000 with a note payable. Interest on the note is at the prime rate plus 2%. The note requires monthly principal and interest payments of $3,533 until September 1, 1997, at which time the entire remaining balance is due. This note is secured by the assets acquired. The assets acquired and consideration paid are as follows: Cash $ 1,000 Accounts receivable 9,702 Equipment 92,798 --------- Total assets 103,500 Note issued 76,000 --------- Cash paid $ 27,500 ========= The acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. The Company included the results of operations of the California precision graphics company beginning September 13, 1995. In connection with the formation of a joint venture in fiscal 1995, the following items were contributed by the Company for a 50% equity interest in the joint venture: Assets contributed: Cash $ 500 Accounts receivable 71,855 Inventories 14,531 Property and equipment 19,831 Other 16,400 --------- 123,117 Liabilities assumed by joint venture: Accounts payable 5,593 Accrued liabilities and compensation 37,428 Payable to the Company 30,096 --------- 73,117 --------- Investment in joint venture $ 50,000 ========= In fiscal 1994, 8,889 shares of common stock (market value of $2,500) were issued in lieu of payment of sales commissions payable to an employee of the Company. Accounts payable includes invoices for equipment purchases of $33,305 and $52,687 at April 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. In fiscal 1996, the Company entered into an equipment loan to purchase $14,052 of equipment. Capital lease obligations of $5,859, $48,773, and $38,163 were incurred when the Company entered into leases for new equipment in fiscal 1996, 1995, and 1994, respectively. SIGNIFICANT GROUP CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK - Most of the Company's business activity is conducted with customers located within the United States. Accounts receivable transactions are generally unsecured. A provision for estimated doubtful accounts is provided for accounts receivable. There are no concentrations of business transacted with a particular customer or supplier nor concentrations of revenue from a particular service or geographic area that could severely impact the Company in the near future. USE OF ESTIMATES - The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS - In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 121, ACCOUNTING FOR THE IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS AND FOR LONG-LIVED ASSETS TO BE DISPOSED OF. SFAS No. 121 establishes accounting standards for the impairment of long-lived assets, certain identifiable intangibles, and goodwill and for certain long-lived assets and intangibles to be disposed of. Under SFAS No. 121, entities are required to review such assets for impairment whenever circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. In performing the review of recoverability of such assets, the entity compares the expected future cash flows that result from the use of the asset and its disposition and recognizes an impairment loss if such cash flows are less than the carrying amount of the asset. SFAS No. 121 will be adopted by the Company in fiscal 1997. The Company has not yet determined the effect adopting SFAS No. 121 will have on its financial position and results of operations. In October 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 123, ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION. SFAS No. 123 encourages companies to adopt a new accounting method that accounts for stock compensation awards based on their estimated fair value at the date they are granted. However, companies are permitted to continue following current accounting requirements for employee stock-based transactions, which generally do not result in an expense charge for most options if the exercise price is at least equal to the fair market value of the stock at the date of grant. Companies that follow existing standards would be required to disclose in a note to the financial statements the effect on net income (loss) and net income (loss) per share had the Company recognized expense for options based on SFAS No. 123. SFAS No. 123 is effective for the Company's fiscal year ending April 30, 1997 and would require disclosure information in those financial statements about stock options granted in fiscal 1996. The Company has not yet determined if it will elect to change to the fair value method, nor has it determined the effect SFAS No. 123 will have on net income (loss) and net income (loss) per share should it elect to make such change. Adoption of SFAS No. 123 will not have any effect on the Company's cash flows. 3.

The above amounts include equipment under capital leases with a cost of $122,566 and $122,962 and accumulated amortization of $81,879 and $47,967 at April 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. 5. INVESTMENT IN JOINT VENTURE Effective May 1, 1994, the Company entered into a verbal agreement to form a joint venture in which, upon contribution of substantially all of the net assets of the Company's New Hampshire facility (approximately $50,000), the Company would own 50% of the equity of the new corporation. The assets were transferred at their historical carrying values. Summarized financial information from the unaudited financial statements of the joint venture, accounted for by the equity method, are as follows: April 30 ------------------------ 1996 1995 Current assets $ 92,557 $ 117,005 Noncurrent assets 246,931 160,661 Current liabilities 72,314 52,890 Stockholders' equity 267,174 224,776 The Company's share of the corporate joint venture's equity is $133,587 and $112,388 at April 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. Years Ended April 30 ------------------------ 1996 1995 Net sales $ 500,486 $ 544,011 Costs and expenses 458,088 419,235 Net income 42,398 124,776 The Company's share of net income of the joint venture for the years ended April 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively, was $21,199 and $62,388. During fiscal 1996, the Company provided software and services to a customer of the joint venture with an approximate value of $125,000 for which the amount of the reimbursement to the Company has not yet been negotiated or reflected in unaudited financial statements of the joint venture. 6. REVOLVING CREDIT AGREEMENTS AND NOTES PAYABLE April 30 -------------------------- 1996 1995 Revolving credit agreements $ 264,607 $ 258,940 ========= ========= Notes payable: Promissory notes $ 235,488 $ 228,000 Term loan 50,435 85,718 Equipment loans 59,558 85,147 --------- --------- 345,481 398,865 Less current maturities 162,697 157,054 --------- --------- $ 182,784 $ 241,811 ========= ========= The $264,607 and $258,940 payable under the revolving credit agreements (the Agreements) at April 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively, is due on demand. The amount available under the Agreements is at the lender's discretion and is limited to 80% of engineering service receivables and 50% of software receivables. The required payments under the Agreements are the Company's daily cash receipts. The Agreements continue in effect until terminated by either party with at least 30 days prior written notice. Substantially all assets of the Company are pledged as collateral under the Agreements. The weighted average interest rate was 20.0% and 23.6% for the years ended April 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. Effective May 1, 1994, the terms of the Agreements were modified to include a reduction in the monthly minimum interest charge from $2,500 to $2,000, a waiving of the $500 monthly examination fee, and an increase in the advance rate of software receivables from 20% to 50%. Effective January 20, 1995, the terms of the Agreements were also modified to include a reduction in the interest rate from prime plus 10% to prime plus 6% (14.25% at April 30, 1996), with an additional promissory note, obtained for $240,000 at an interest rate of 14%, to be paid back in installments of $4,000 per month plus interest, with a final payment of $100,000 due on January 20, 1998. Effective May 16, 1996, the terms of the Agreements were also modified to change the advance rate of engineering service and software receivables to 70%. During fiscal 1996, in connection with the Company's purchase of assets of a California precision graphics service company from bankruptcy court, the Company entered into a promissory note for $76,000 which bears interest at prime plus 2% (10.25% at April 30, 1996 and is payable in twenty-four equal monthly payments). The note is secured by the assets acquired. The balance outstanding at April 30, 1996 was $55,488, of which $38,286 is classified as a current liability. The term loan bears interest at 8%, is payable in monthly installments of $2,500, and is collateralized by a security interest in the Company's equipment and proceeds and products of such equipment. At April 30, 1996 and 1995, the amount payable under this note is $47,500 of principal plus $2,935 of future interest and $77,500 of principal plus $8,218 of future interest, of which $32,935 and $35,283, respectively, is classified as a current liability. During fiscal 1996 and 1994, the Company entered into various equipment loans, each of which is collateralized by the equipment purchased. Principal borrowings on these loans as of April 30, 1996 and 1995 total $59,558 and $85,147, respectively, at interest rates of 6.9% to 13%. One of these loans, with a balance of $24,994 at April 30, 1996, is due on demand, with the remaining loans due beginning in fiscal 1997. These agreements contain certain covenants, and the Company is restricted from declaring or paying dividends or applying any funds, properties, or assets to the purchase, redemption, or other retirement of any shares of capital stock. Principal maturities on the notes outstanding at April 30, 1996 are payable as follows: Years ending April 30: 1997 $ 162,697 1998 175,389 1999 7,395 --------- $ 345,481 ========= The carrying amounts of notes payable and long-term debt approximate fair market value at April 30, 1996. Rates currently available to the Company for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities are used to estimate the fair value of the existing debt. 7. LEASE COMMITMENTS The Company leases certain of its facilities and equipment under operating leases (see Note 10). Rent expense incurred on these leases was approximately $167,000, $174,000, and $259,000 for the years ended April 30, 1996, 1995, and 1994, respectively. Future minimum lease payments required under operating and capital leases that have initial or remaining noncancelable lease terms in excess of one year at April 30, 1996 are as follows: CAPITAL OPERATING Years ending April 30: 1997 $ 34,007 $ 100,860 1998 13,615 44,395 1999 345 8,706 -------- --------- Total minimum lease payments 47,967 $ 153,961 ========= Less amounts representing interest 4,957 -------- Present value of net minimum obligations 43,010 Less current portion 29,630 -------- Long-term obligations at April 30, 1996 $ 13,380 ======== On April 7, 1992, the Company reached a settlement with a lessor of certain equipment on which the Company had a dispute over functionality and support and, therefore, ceased making payment of its capital lease obligation. The settlement modified the terms of the capital lease to effectively cure the defaults and provided that the Company pay an agreed-upon amount. Due to lack of sufficient technological upgrades on this equipment, the Company wrote off the equipment's net book value of $96,000 at April 30, 1992. The final payment of $11,167 was paid by the Company in June 1993, and the remaining obligation was forgiven, which resulted in an extraordinary gain from debt forgiveness of $149,095, net of income tax effect of $4,000, during the year ended April 30, 1994. 8. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY The Company has an Incentive Stock Option Plan for key employees and directors. The Company has reserved 450,000 shares of common stock for the plan. The option exercise price is to be not less than the fair market value of the stock at the date of grant. The options are exercisable over a period not to exceed ten years from the date of grant. Activity under the Incentive Stock Option Plan is as follows:
SHARES EXERCISE AVAILABLE SHARES PRICE FOR GRANT Balances at April 30, 1993 215,000 $0.19-1.25 235,000 Granted 180,000 (180,000) Canceled (70,000) 70,000 Expired (55,000) 55,000 --------- --------- Balances at April 30, 1994 270,000 0.19-0.31 180,000 Expired (80,000) 80,000 --------- --------- Balances at April 30, 1995 and 1996 190,000 0.19-0.31 260,000 ========= =========
The incentive options granted are exercisable as follows: 20% after the first year, 40% after the second year, 60% after the third year, 80% after the fourth year, and 100% after the fifth year. At April 30, 1996, options to purchase 172,000 shares of common stock were exercisable at a weighted average exercise price of $0.26 per share. In addition, the Company has reserved 165,000 shares of common stock for issuance under a nonqualified plan. During fiscal 1994, options to purchase 50,000 shares at $0.28 per share and expiring September 1998 were granted to a director of the Company. At April 30, 1996, 100% of these options are exercisable. During fiscal 1996, options to purchase 50,000 shares at $0.69 per share and expiring December 2000 were granted to a director of the Company. At April 30, 1996, 20% of these options are currently exercisable, with the remaining 80% exercisable in 20% increments on the anniversary dates of the grant. In November 1992, warrants to purchase 350,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.125 per share were issued as part of a debt restructuring. During fiscal 1995, warrants to purchase 80,000 shares of common stock were exercised. The remaining warrants are currently exercisable and expire November 17, 1997. In fiscal 1994, an officer of the Company purchased and sold stock of the Company. The profit of $74,791 earned on this transaction was paid to the Company and was recorded as a contribution to capital. 9. INCOME TAXES Income tax expense for the year ended April 30, 1996 has been partially offset by a reduction in the valuation allowances for deferred taxes. Income tax expense for the year ended April 30, 1996 relates to minimum taxes due to various states the Company operates in. The income tax benefit for fiscal 1995 has been offset by a valuation allowance because the Company's net operating loss could not be carried back and future realization of the net operating loss carryforward was uncertain. Income tax expense for the year ended April 30, 1994, which has been reduced as the result of the utilization of income tax net operating loss carryforwards which were previously offset by a valuation allowance, was allocated $12,055 to income from continuing operations and $4,000 to the extraordinary item - debt forgiveness. For the years ended April 30, the provisions for income taxes differ from the expected income tax based on income (loss) before extraordinary item at the federal statutory tax rate as follows:
1996 1995 1994 Federal tax at statutory rate $ 51,000 $ (133,000) $ 157,356 State taxes, net of federal benefit 2,000 2,000 6,923 Change in estimated future tax rates 86,000 Change in valuation allowances (91,000) 57,000 (157,356) State net operating loss carryforward (10,000) Alternative minimum taxes 3,146 Other 40,000 2,000 1,986 --------- ---------- ---------- $ 2,000 $ 4,000 $ 12,055 ========= ========== ==========
Deferred tax assets and liabilities represent the tax impact of temporary differences between the basis of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and income tax purposes. Deferred taxes as of April 30 consist of the following:
1996 1995 Current deferred tax assets: Allowance for doubtful accounts and other accruals $ 86,000 $ 128,000 Less valuation allowance (86,000) (128,000) ----------- ------------ Net current deferred tax assets $ - $ - =========== ============ Long-term deferred tax (liabilities) assets: Software development costs $ (395,000) $ (383,000) Excess of tax over book depreciation (494,000) (322,000) Tax net operating loss carryforward 1,481,000 1,346,000 General business credit 359,000 359,000 Less valuation allowance (951,000) (1,000,000) ----------- ------------ Net long-term deferred tax assets (liabilities) $ - $ - =========== ============
The Company has recorded valuation allowances to reduce the recorded net deferred tax assets to zero after considering evidence regarding future realization of the deferred amounts. The Company has income tax net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $3,900,000 for federal and $2,100,000 for state as of April 30, 1996. If not used, these carryforwards will begin to expire in 2000 for federal and 2003 for state. The Company also has federal general business credits of approximately $359,000 which will begin to expire in 2003. 10. RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS The Company leases one of its facilities from a partnership which is 50% owned by the chairman of the board of the Company. Monthly rentals under this lease are $2,750. The lease contains a renewal option for an additional five-year period. Rent expense incurred on this lease was $33,000 for years ended April 30, 1996, 1995, and 1994, respectively. The Company leases production equipment from a partnership of which the chairman of the board is a partner. Rent expense incurred on this lease was $38,340 for the years ended April 30, 1996, 1995, and 1994. At April 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively, other accrued expenses include $173,378 and $100,244 due to the joint venture in which the Company has an equity interest of 50%. 11. SEGMENT INFORMATION The Company has two business segments: designing and producing precision graphics products (Engineering Services Division) and designing, assembling, and marketing CAD/CAM systems (Systems Software Division). Summarized financial information by business segment as of and for the years ended April 30 is as follows:

DEFERRED SAVINGS AND BONUS PLANS The Company has a defined contribution savings plan for employees who have completed 1 year of service (amended effective April 30, 1993 to 30 days of service) and attained the age of 21 and a discretionary cash bonus plan. The defined contribution savings plan allows for employee compensation deferral contributions under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code and discretionary contributions by the Company. During the year ended April 30, 1994, the Company accrued a discretionary contribution of approximately $22,000, while no such discretionary contributions were made during fiscal 1996 or 1995. The Company accrued approximately $50,000, $0, and $76,000 for the years ended April 30, 1996, 1995, and 1994, respectively, relating to the discretionary cash bonus plan. Item 9.
