5 INNOVATIVE GAMING CORPORATION OF AMERICA AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS SEPTEMBER 30, 2001 (UNAUDITED) (1) BASIS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Although management believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading, it is suggested that these interim consolidated condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the Company's most recent audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2000. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented have been made. Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2001. Certain accounts in the prior year financial statements have been reclassified for comparative purposes to conform with the presentation in the current period interim financial statements. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported net income or stockholders' equity. (2) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES The manufacture, distribution and sale of the Company's products are regulated by various jurisdictions and entities, including requirements to obtain licenses and product approvals in several jurisdictions. The Company has obtained required licenses and product approvals in certain jurisdictions and is continuing efforts to obtain such approvals in other jurisdictions. Failure to successfully obtain and/or maintain such licenses and approvals, or meet other regulatory requirements could materially impact the future operation of the Company. Additionally, there is no assurance that the Company's products will be accepted in the marketplace upon obtaining regulatory approvals. (3) INCOME TAXES The Company has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109- "Accounting for Income Taxes" - (SFAS No. 109) under which deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for differences between financial and income tax reporting basis of assets and liabilities based on currently enacted rates and laws. The Company had cumulative federal net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $27,707,000 as of December 31, 2000. These losses, if not used, begin to expire in 2009 through 2015. Future changes in the ownership of the Company may place limitations on the use of these net operating loss carry forwards. (4) EARNINGS PER SHARE The Company has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 "Earnings Per Share"-(SFAS No. 128). The earnings per share data for the periods presented is based on weighted average common shares outstanding, which is equivalent to "basic" earnings per share as calculated under SFAS No. 128. Diluted earnings per share is not presented because the resulting earnings per share would be antidilutive for each period reported. 6 (5) BAD DEBT ADJUSTMENTS During September 2001, the Company determined that the collectibility of notes receivable from its distributor in Holland was in doubt. Therefore, the Company reserved the amounts of these notes and recorded a loss in the amount of $5,140,000. Additionally, the Company booked a bad debt adjustment of $500,000 related to a sale to another distributor that occurred in 2000. In connection with the termination of the Company's planned merger with Xertain, Inc. (Note 9), the Company also booked a bad debt adjustment of $512,000 related to advances made to Xertain. (6) STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY During July 2001, the Company issued 150,000 shares of Series J Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Series J Preferred Stock") as payment for expenses totaling $1,979,000, which is being amortized over five years. Each share of the Series J Preferred Stock is convertible into 10 shares of the Company's Common Stock; there is no conversion price. The Series J Preferred Stock does not pay dividends and is not redeemable except through conversion into Common Stock. The stated par value of the Series J Preferred Stock is $.01, resulting in a total par value of $1,500 being recorded as Series J Convertible Preferred Stock, and the balance of approximately $1,978,000 is included as Additional Paid-in Capital. During August 2001, the Company issued 4,667 shares of Series K Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Series K Preferred Stock") in exchange for net cash proceeds of approximately $3,402,000, which represented a 25% discount from the stated price of $1,000 per share, less commissions and offering costs. The stated par value of Series K Preferred Stock is $.01, resulting in a total par value of $47 being recorded as Series H Convertible Preferred Stock, and the balance of approximately $3,401,000 is included in Additional Paid-in Capital. An annual dividend of 7% is payable quarterly in arrears either in Common Stock of the Company or cash at the Company's discretion. Each share of Series K Preferred Stock is convertible into shares of the Company's Common Stock at a conversion price equal to the average closing bid price of the Company's Common Stock over the five-day trading period ending the day prior to conversion. The 25% discount from stated value was accounted for as an additional Preferred Stock dividend, which was determined on the date the Series K Preferred Stock was issued. The total value of the beneficial conversion feature or dividend is $1,167,000, which reduced income available for holders of the Company's Common Stock and therefore reduced earnings per share for the three months ended September 30, 2001. All outstanding shares of Series K Preferred Stock will automatically be converted into Common Stock on the fifth anniversary of its issuance. A holder of Preferred Stock may not convert such stock into Common Stock if, following such conversion, the holder beneficially owns in excess of 4.9% of the Company's outstanding Common Stock. During the three months ended September 30, 2001, shares representing $50,000 of Series C Preferred Stock were converted into Series H Preferred Stock because prior conversions of Series C Preferred Stock had exhausted the shares of common stock reserved for issuance to Series C Preferred stockholders. Shares representing $178,000 of Series E Preferred Stock were converted into Series G Preferred Stock, because prior conversions of Series E Preferred Stock had exhausted the shares of common stock reserved for issuance to Series E Preferred stockholders. During the three months ended September 30, 2001, shares representing $150,910 of Series E Preferred Stock, shares representing $200,000 of Series F Preferred Stock, shares representing $178,000 of Series G Preferred Stock, and shares representing $604,000 of Series H Preferred Stock were converted into Common Stock at the election of the holders thereof. During the same period, shares representing $467,000 of Series I Preferred Stock and shares representing $50,000 of Series K Preferred Stock were converted into Common Stock at the election of the holders thereof. 7 (7) SHORT-TERM DEBT: On July 10, 2001, the Company borrowed $1 million from a bank on an unsecured six-month note. Interest is payable monthly at 6 percent. Proceeds on this note were used to repay a previous $1 million bank note which matured on July 10, 2001. (8) SALE OF RECEIVABLES: In May 2001, the Company entered into a one-year agreement whereby it has assigned certain of its accounts receivable to a factor on a non-recourse basis. The agreement allows the Company to collect advances of 75% of the face amounts of factored invoices, less factoring charges equal to two percent of the face amount of any factored invoice. Interest is charged on the outstanding advances at prime plus two percent. As security under the agreement, the Company has pledged its accounts and notes receivable, intangibles, equipment and portions of its inventories. At September 30, 2001, the Company had factored approximately $1,742,000 of its receivables and had received advances totaling approximately $1,570,000. (9) SUBSEQUENT EVENTS In October 2001, the Company reached agreement with principals of Xertain, Inc. to terminate its planned merger with Xertain. Although a formal termination agreement has not been executed by Xertain, the Company has indicated that it will not extend its merger agreement with Xertain which expires December 31, 2001. Pursuant to this termination, the Company recognized a loss of $989,000 on its initial investment in Xertain, as well as a bad debt adjustment representing $512,000 of amounts due from Xertain. Total amount of the losses recognized was $1,501,000. In October 2001, the Company received the first funding from a new $10 million participation line of credit, whereby the Company executes a sale and leaseback of its gaming machines for placement in revenue-sharing arrangements with casinos and other gaming properties. 8 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OVERVIEW The following discussion and this Form 10-K contain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties relating to future events. Actual events or the Company's results may differ materially from those discussed in such forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause actual results to differ from those indicated by such forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: the need for and ability to obtain additional financing on terms favorable to the Company, customer acceptance of the Company's products, Preferred Stock conversions, decline in demand for gaming products or reduction in the growth rate of new markets, failure or delay in obtaining gaming licenses and regulatory approvals, delays in developing or manufacturing new products, delays in orders and shipment of products, changing economic conditions, approval of pending patent applications or infringement upon existing patents, the effects of regulatory and governmental actions, the ability of the Company to maintain its listing on the NASDAQ Stock Market, and increased competition. OVERVIEW - The Company was formed in 1991 to develop, manufacture, market and distribute multi-player and other specialty video gaming machines. The Company manufactures, markets and distributes its products to certain gaming markets worldwide. Since inception, the Company has focused most of its resources on the development of games, the regulatory approval process and the sale and installation of its games. The Company has begun to expand and diversify its product line by developing and marketing single player games incorporating state of the art graphics and sound. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2001 COMPARED TO SEPTEMBER 30, 2000 For the three months ended September 30, 2001, the Company recorded a loss attributable to Common Stock shareholders of $11,222,000, or $.56 per share, compared to income of $148,000, or $.02 per share, for the three months ended September 30, 2000. For the nine months ended September 30, 2001, the Company recorded a loss attributable to Common Stock shareholders of $11,941,000, or $.73 per share, compared to a loss of $1,548,000, or $.17 per share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2000. The income or loss attributable to common shareholders for each period included adjustments for preferred stock accretion and preferred stock dividends. The unfavorable change in operating results for the fiscal 2001 periods was primarily attributable to two significant events which affected the Company's third quarter results, along with substantially decreased sales revenues. At the end of the third quarter, the Company determined that notes receivable from its distributor in Holland may not be collectible. Accordingly, the Company reserved the notes, which total $5,140,000, and booked a bad debt expense for the same amount. Additionally, the Company booked a bad debt adjustment of $500,000 related to a sale to another distributor that occurred in 2000. Shortly after the end of the third quarter, the Company reached agreement with principals of Xertain, Inc. to terminate its planned merger with Xertain. Although a formal termination agreement has not been executed by Xertain, the Company has indicated that it will not extend its merger agreement with Xertain which expires December 31, 2001. Pursuant to this termination, the Company recognized a loss of $989,000 on its initial investment in Xertain, as well as a bad debt adjustment representing $512,000 of amounts due from Xertain. Total amount of the losses recognized was $1,501,000. 9 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - CONTINUED RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2001 COMPARED TO SEPTEMBER 30, 2000 - CONTINUED SALES, COST OF SALES AND GROSS PROFIT Total sales for the quarter ended September 30, 2001, were $697,000 compared to $2,162,000 recorded in the quarter ended September 30, 2000. This decrease in revenues was due to the Company's decision to pursue opportunities for participation sales of its machines, along with limited working capital available to produce new products to meet existing demand. Total sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2001, were $7,516,000 compared to $5,933,000 in the nine months ended September 30, 2000. This increase in revenues was due to the sale of a $3 million one-time license of the Company's proprietary slot machine technology to the Company's distributor in Holland. The table below presents the comparative sales revenue and percentage of revenue derived from each of the Company's product lines for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2001 and 2000:
Three months ended Three months ended Nine months ended Nine months ended September 30, 2001 September 30, 2000 September 30, 2001 September 30, 2000 Sales revenue $697,000 $2,162,000 $7,516,000 $5,933,000 Product line: Percentage of revenue: Percentage of revenue: Percentage of revenue: Percentage of revenue: ---------------------- ---------------------- ---------------------- ---------------------- Multi-player games 24% 60% 24% 61% Single player games 29% 32% 27% 30% Parts sales and other 17% 6% 3% 5% Lease participation 30% 2% 6% 4% License fees --% --% 40% --% Total 100% 100% 100% 100%
Overall Company revenues will continue to be volatile due to, among other things, the ability of the Company to continue financing its operations, fluctuations in demand for the Company's current products, market acceptance of new products introduced by the Company and the Company's ability to obtain licensing and successfully market its products in new jurisdictions. The Company recorded gross margins of 12.2% and 60.8% for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2001, respectively, compared to 56.3% and 43.2% for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2000. The reduced sales in the third quarter adversely affected margins due to inability to absorb overhead costs at the lower operating volume. The sale of a one-time license of the Company's technology in the second quarter of 2001 had no associated direct cost, which significantly increased the gross margins for the nine months ended September 30, 2001. The gross margins for the fiscal 2001 periods were also favorably affected by reductions in inventory reserves that were recorded in the fourth quarter of 1999 due to the planned divestiture of the Company's gaming assets to Xertain, Inc. These gross margin levels may not be repeated in future periods. SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES Selling, general and administrative expense for the three months ended September 30, 2001 was $8,856,000 compared to $962,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2000. Selling, general and administrative expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 was $12,550,000 compared to $3,363,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2000. The increase in expenses during the third quarter was attributable primarily to the bad debt reserves referred to above. The Company also is incurring increased expenses related to the continuing effort to develop, enhance and license its products and introduce those products into new markets. 10 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - CONTINUED INTEREST EXPENSE In the quarter ended September 30, 2001, net interest expense was $170,000 compared to $76,000 in the quarter ended September 30, 2000. For the nine months ended September 30, 2001, net interest expense was $338,000 compared to $241,000 in the nine months ended September 30, 2000. These increases in net interest expense were due to additional interest expense incurred on increased debt. ACCUMULATED DEFICIT The Company had an accumulated deficit of $45,645,000 as of September 30, 2001. The Company has experienced stronger demand for its products over the past four quarters, with corresponding improvements in its results from operations. However, due to the Company's short-term capital requirements, the high degree of regulation and other factors of the business environment in which the Company operates, the likelihood of future profitable quarters cannot be predicted. Future short-term results are highly dependent on the Company's ability to, among other things, finance production and distribution new products, gain customer acceptance of its existing and new products and the necessary Company licenses and/or product approvals in various jurisdictions in order to expand its market base. There can also be no assurance as to the time frame during which such anticipated approvals may occur due to uncertain time periods involved in the regulatory approval process. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES LIQUIDITY The Company had $373,000 and $321,000 in cash as of September 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000, respectively. The Company has experienced negative cash flow from operations of $1.7 million, $5.1 million and $2.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999, and 1998, respectively. Given the relatively large fluctuations in the frequency and size of the Company's sales, the Company continues to experience significant fluctuations in its cash position. The Company presently estimates that even if current sales forecasts are met, and if accounts receivable for such sales are collected as anticipated, the Company may not have enough cash to fund operations beyond November 30, 2001. The Company may need to raise additional funding, either through the sale of additional capital stock at discounted prices or through the issuance of additional debt, to meet its anticipated working capital needs for the remainder of the current year. The Company has identified, and is currently pursuing, several options for raising the required working capital. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in achieving its current sales forecasts and receivables collections, or in obtaining any additional financing on terms acceptable to the Company. In the event the Company is not able to obtain short-term financing, the Company will have to consider a number of strategic alternatives such as liquidating all or part of its assets or discontinuing its operations. Accordingly, failure to obtain additional financing would have a material adverse affect on the Company. Management also believes that the costly process of product development and introduction could require the Company to seek additional financing to successfully complete any such future development. CAPITAL RESOURCES During the quarter ended September 30, 2001, the Company raised additional capital funding through a variety of sources. The Company also raised $1,000,000 through a six-month loan from a bank. 11 During the first part of August, 2001, the Company raised approximately $3.4 million through sale of Series K preferred stock to a group of private investors. In October 2001, the Company received the first funding from a new $10 million participation line of credit, whereby the Company executes a sale and leaseback of its gaming machines for placement in revenue-sharing arrangements with casinos and other gaming properties. The Company believes the ultimate revenue generation and profitability is substantially greater for these revenue-sharing arrangements than for the direct sale of the machines. The Company intends to continue pursuing additional financing alternatives to finance its existing operations and strategic growth initiatives. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 The foregoing Management's Discussion and Analysis contains various "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Sections 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which represent the Company's expectations or beliefs concerning future events, including statements regarding the demand for the Company's products in certain key jurisdictions such as Nevada and Holland. In addition, statements containing expressions such as "believes", "anticipates", "hopeful" or "expects" used in the Company's periodic reports on Forms 10-K and 10-Q filed with the SEC are intended to identify forward looking statements. The Company cautions that these and similar statements included in this report and in previously filed periodic reports including reports filed on Forms 10-K and 10-Q are further qualified by important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statement, including, without limitation, the following: ability to obtain additional financing through leasing, equity financing or other arrangements; the ability to achieve current sales forecasts, the inability to successfully develop, license, manufacture and market new products in a timely manner; decline in demand for gaming products or reduction in the growth rate of new markets; increased competition; the effect of economic conditions; a decline in the market acceptability of gaming; political and economic instability in developing international markets; a decrease in the desire of established casinos to upgrade machines in response to added competition from newly constructed casinos; the loss of a distributor; loss or retirement of key executives; approval of pending patent applications or infringement upon existing patents; the effect of regulatory and governmental actions; the ability of the Company to maintain its listing on the NASDAQ Stock Market; unfavorable determination of suitability by regulatory authorities with respect to officers, directors or key employees; the limitation, conditioning or suspension of any gaming license; adverse results of significant litigation matters; fluctuation in exchange rates, tariffs and other barriers. Investors are referred to the full discussion of risks and uncertainties associated with forward-looking statements contained in the Company's report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1999. Many of the foregoing factors have been discussed in the Company's prior SEC filings and, had the amendments to the Securities Act of 1933 and Securities Exchange Act of 1934 become effective at a different time, would have been discussed in an earlier filing. 12 PART II OTHER INFORMATION Item 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS Shuffle Master Litigation On April 6, 2001, Innovative Gaming Corporation of America filed suit in the Second Judicial District Court of the State of Nevada In and For the County of Washoe in Reno, Nevada, against Shuffle Master, Inc. and Joseph Lahti alleging that Shuffle Master misappropriated the Company's proprietary slot operating platform in violation of the terms of a Confidentiality Agreement entered into between the Company and Shuffle Master on November 17, 1999. The complaint seeks unspecified monetary damages arising from Shuffle Master's breach of the Confidentiality Agreement. Shuffle Master has answered the complaint and the parties are in the early stages of discovery. Item 2. CHANGES IN SECURITIES RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES In July 2001, the Company issued 200,000 shares of restricted Common Stock to an accredited investor for $200,000, which represented a 22% discount to the Company's fair market value. The Company relied upon Section 4(2) OF THE Securities Act of 1933 as an exemption from registration. In August 2001, the Company issued 4,667 shares of Series K Convertible Preferred Stock in exchange for net cash proceeds of approximately $3,402,000, which represented a 25% discount from the stated price of $1,000 per share. Each share of Series K is convertible into the Company's Common Stock at a conversion price equal to the average closing bid price of the Company's Common Stock over the five day trading period ending the day prior to conversion. In connection with such offering, the Company also issued an aggregate of 466,700 warrants to acquire common stock with an exercise price of $1.75 per share. The Company relied upon Rule 506 of Registration D of the Securities Act of 1933 as an exemption from registration. During the three months ended September 30, 2001, shares representing $50,000 of Series C Preferred Stock were converted into Series H Preferred Stock because prior conversions of Series C Preferred Stock had exhausted the shares of common stock reserved for issuance to Series C Preferred stockholders. Shares representing $178,000 of Series E Preferred Stock were converted into Series G Preferred Stock, because prior conversions of Series E Preferred Stock had exhausted the shares of common stock reserved for issuance to Series E Preferred stockholders.
